:16:01
Only you are uncommon.
:16:03
How did my brother find you?
:16:06
He advertised.
In the New Orleans papers.

:16:09
You'll be flattered to know
there were nearly 50 applications.

:16:13
- He picked you.
- Not exactly.

:16:15
I didn't apply.
:16:16
You see, I've known your brother
for many years.

:16:18
He asked me to read the applications
and help him choose a wife for you.

:16:23
I became interested,
:16:24
finally decided I'd be much better
for you than anyone else.

:16:29
Your brother didn't agree with me,
but I managed to convince him.

:16:33
It wasn't easy.
:16:34
Very stubborn man, your brother.
:16:36
You might not believe that.
:16:38
It runs in the family.
:16:41
Really?
:16:43
I know why my brother picked you.
:16:46
But what made you decide
to marry a man you'd never met?

:16:51
I think it was your letters
that decided me.

:16:53
Your letters to your brother.
:16:55
I could tell how lonely you were.
:16:58
I knew you needed me.
:17:03
I don't need anyone.
:17:06
Not even for children?
:17:09
I suppose I'm to consider myself
fortunate you came down here.

:17:14
Perhaps not right now,
:17:16
but when you know me better,
you will.

:17:17
Perhaps when you know me better,
you won't care to stay.

:17:27
If I had thought there'd be
any doubt about it,

:17:29
I would never have left
New Orleans.

:17:41
You're here and you're welcome.
:17:44
We do things by schedule
in the tropics.

:17:47
We eat early, we go to bed early.
:17:49
Dinner's at 7.
:17:50
What time is bedtime?
:17:53
Whenever you wish, madam.
:17:55
I wouldn't want to upset
your schedule.
