:38:00
Mr. Chilk is going to
read it to you.

:38:03
"Agreed: Strand Arena, Limited...
:38:05
agrees to let
to Harry Fabian -"

:38:07
- That is you. Harry Fabian.
- Yes, that is me.

:38:10
"The facilities of its arena for the purpose
of exhibiting a wrestling match on June 15...

:38:13
"of the above-dated year...
:38:16
"when said Harry Fabian
will present...

:38:18
one Nikolas
versus Svenson the Viking."

:38:21
June 15.
That's four days from now.

:38:25
It would seem that I've returned to London
without too many days to spare.

:38:29
"It is further agreed
that said Harry Fabian...

:38:32
"will make to Strand Arena, Limited
the final payment of one hundred pounds...

:38:35
"no later than three days
before the said exhibition...

:38:38
namely, June 12
of above-dated year. It is -"

:38:41
Yes, Nikolas versus Svenson.
They're fine boys, fine boys.

:38:45
I expect
a big crowd.

:38:47
It's nothing
like your stuff.

:38:49
It's real
Greco-Roman wrestling.

:38:51
I'd be honored,
Mr. Kristo, if you came -

:38:55
Go away, Mr. Fabian.
:38:57
Go to Montreal,
which is in Canada.

:39:00
There you can promote wrestling.
In London you cannot.

:39:03
I say it, Mr. Fabian.
:39:06
Then I suggest
you say it...

:39:09
to my partner.
:39:19
Mr. Kristo, my partner.
:39:23
Mr. Kristo has made
an interesting suggestion -

:39:26
that we go to Montreal because
we can't promote wrestling in London.

:39:32
What do you think,
Gregorious?

:39:35
- Mr. Kristo says there's no room for you in London.
- Papa, you did not go home.

:39:39
- What do you want?
- I -

:39:42
- I want to talk to you. Now.
- I have nothing to hear from you.

:39:46
I beg you to listen. You must not
get mixed up with this - this club tout.

:39:51
If you would say something good
about Mr. Fabian, then I worry.

:39:56
Papa, please.
Everybody in London knows what he is.

:39:59
He'll swindle you. He'll cheat you.
He'll break your heart.
