I'm sorry about the shoes. I will behave
beautifully this afternoon, you will see.

:45:19
- Sorry about the shoes?
- There was nothing wrong with them.

:45:24
I just did that to torment you.
:45:27
Oh, you did?
:45:30
I know exactly how to torment you,
don't I, darling?

:45:33
And you look so wonderfully poetic
when you are in a rage, my dear.

:45:38
Never mind how I look. So you just made
up that little bit about the shoes, huh?

:45:43
But you were being terrible.
You deserved it.

:45:46
You let everyone sit around
while you took your petty revenge?

:45:50
You forget what you said in front
of the entire company about my dancing?

:45:55
No, I don't. I remember every word of it.
:45:57
- I was right!
- Oh, you were?

:46:00
Yes, and if you've finished stuffing
yourself, I can say it again

:46:05
because we're going
back to the rehearsal.

:46:07
You danced the waltz
like an elephant in a snowdrift!

:46:11
What did you say?
:46:13
I said you danced the waltz
like an elephant in a snowdrift!

:46:17
No, like an elephant who fell down
and was trying to get up!

:46:22
Can you hear me? Is that loud enough?
:46:24
How dare you! I slave to make
each step you give me just right.

:46:29
I make your foolish little dance steps
acceptable to an audience.

:46:34
You don't slave hard enough.
Move in time to the music once in a while!

:46:38
You are not just cruel, you are heartless.
Completely heartless.

:46:43
You love to say cruel things to me! You
would like to see me grovel at your feet!

:46:48
- You'd see those steps clearer that way!
- How can I stand it?

:46:52
How do I bear it?
:46:54
Come - you can cry harder than that.
I've heard you cry much harder.
