:57:01
- I'm sorry, I didn't...
- Outside of a beehive, Margo,

:57:04
your behaviour is hardly queenly or motherly.
:57:07
You're in a beehive, pal.
:57:09
We're all busy little bees, full of stings,
making honey day and night.

:57:14
- Aren't we, honey?
- Margo, really.

:57:16
Please don't play governess, Karen.
:57:19
I haven'tyour unyielding good taste.
:57:22
I wish I could have gone to Radcliffe, too,
but Father wouldn't hear of it.

:57:27
He needed help behind a notions counter.
:57:29
I'm being rude now, aren't I?
Or should I say, ain't I?

:57:34
You're maudlin and full of self-pity.
You're magnificent.

:57:37
How about calling it a night?
:57:40
And you pose as a playwright.
:57:42
A situation pregnant with possibilities,
and all you can think of is "go to sleep".

:57:47
- It's a good thought.
- It won't play.

:57:51
As a nonprofessional,
I think it's an excellent idea. Excuse me.

:57:56
Undramatic, perhaps, but practical.
:57:59
- Happy little housewife.
- Cut it out.

:58:01
This is my house, not a theatre.
In my house you're a guest, not a director.

:58:06
Then stop being a star and treating
your guests as your supporting cast.

:58:10
- Let's not get into a big hassle.
- It's time we did.

:58:13
Margo has to realise what's attractive
on stage need not be attractive off.

:58:17
All right!
:58:19
I'm going to bed.
:58:28
You be host. It's your party.
Happy birthday. Welcome home.

:58:33
And we who are about to die salute you.
:58:35
Need any help?
:58:42
To put me to bed?
Take my clothes off, hold my head?

:58:47
Tuck me in, turn out the lights
and tiptoe out?

:58:52
Eve would, wouldn'tyou, Eve?
:58:55
- If you'd like.
- I wouldn't like.
