:47:00
Your mind's a blank
on the subject?
:47:04
Do you find it impossible to remember
just why your husband disappeared?
:47:10
You can't imagine what kind
of errand he went on, can you?
:47:15
But, when he returned...
:47:18
the fire had just broken out
at the syndicate plantation.
:47:24
I can't imagine what you could
possible be driving at.
:47:27
No? You're a very unsatisfactory
witness, Mrs. Meighan.
:47:35
Should we drop the subject?
:47:38
I sure wish you would.
:47:39
Well, sure.
:47:43
It's no use crying over
a burnt down gin.
:47:49
Besides,
like your husband said...
:47:53
this world is built on the principle
of tit for tat.
:47:58
What do you mean?
:48:04
Nothing specific.
:48:09
Do you mind if I...?
:48:10
What?
:48:12
Sit down.
:48:14
Is it strong enough
to support us both?
:48:15
I hope.
:48:18
Let's swing a little.
:48:21
You seem all tense.
:48:25
Motion relaxes people.
:48:28
It's like a cradle.
:48:30
A cradle relaxes a baby.
:48:34
They call you Baby, don't they?
:48:36
That's sort of a nickname.
:48:37
Well, in a swing you can relax
just like in a cradle.
:48:41
I don't like to swing. Besides,
I'm relaxed as much as necessary...
:48:45
No, you're not.
Your nerves are all tied up.
:48:49
You make me nervous.
:48:51
For swinging?
:48:52
Not just that.
:48:53
What else, then?
:48:54
All those questions
about the fire.
:48:58
I was only enquiring
about your husband...
