:38:01
And I decided to let him
love me because of Arnie.
:38:05
It was on my second wedding night
that I learned the truth.
:38:09
You didn't learn on your first?
:38:13
(Dog Barking)
This was a terrible truth...
:38:17
The truth about Harry.
:38:19
- Just what happened?
- How old are you, Mr Marlowe?
:38:24
About 30.
:38:29
This is what happened.
:38:33
I was in the hotel room alone.
I put on my best nightie.
:38:37
- You understand?
- Perfectly.
:38:41
Although I had no true feeling
for Harry,
:38:43
I worked myself into an enthusiasm
because I thought he loved me.
:38:48
Must have been hard work.
:38:50
There was a full moon,
and I sat by the window
:38:53
because I thought it would show off
my new nightie to advantage.
:38:56
Naturally.
:38:59
I don't know why
I'm telling you all this.
:39:02
You, a perfect stranger too.
I'm not boring you, am I?
:39:05
No. Not at all.
:39:08
- How about some more lemonade?
- Soon, soon.
:39:12
Oh, where was I?
:39:15
You were sitting by the window
because it was a full moon
:39:17
and you'd worked yourself up
to a certain enthusiasm.
:39:21
I said all that?
:39:23
Uh, when does Harry come in?
:39:26
He doesn't. He never came in.
:39:29
- He called the following morning.
- The following morning?
:39:33
In the hotel lobby the night before,
he bought a magazine.
:39:36
- His horoscope was in it.
- Bad?
:39:39
It said... He was a Taurus.
:39:41
It said, 'Don't start
any new project that day.
:39:44
- It could never be finished.'
- And what did you do?
:39:48
I left him on the spot,
and went home to mother's. The end.
:39:53
What a poignant story.
:39:55
I knew you'd understand.
:39:57
- Nobody else does.
- Not even mother?
:39:59
She thought I should live with him,
but I wouldn't.
