so delicate, so lovely...
that past the third row,

:24:05
you could not tell
I was wearing anything at all.

:24:08
Such a waste.
There is no comparison...

:24:10
And you saw me as the virgin bride
of the sea king.

:24:13
It looked like I was wearing
shimmering tights, remember?

:24:16
When actually I was
quite au naturel.

:24:19
It was all done with lights.
:24:22
Oh. Ah, the magic of the theater.
:24:26
- How I loved it.
- That was Paris... a long, long time ago.

:24:31
Still, I would like to parade
down the runway tonight...

:24:35
if I could hide
my extra pounds of contentment.

:24:38
My pet, I'm only trying to say that
Chantal is what I am... what we are.

:24:44
We are good people, and she's
a good girl. Of course she is.

:24:48
But there's nothing in the book that says good
people can't meet bad people and turn out not so good.

:24:53
You don't think
she'll go back there, do you?

:24:57
Not if you insist that she doesn't,
:24:59
but you know what happened to
Juliet when the parents interfered.

:25:03
I want Charlotte to get married,
but to a man with principles.

:25:06
Men develop appetites
when they are 12,

:25:09
muscles when they are 16...
:25:11
and principles
only after they are married.

:25:17
Being married
is the nicest thing to be.

:25:20
Maybe so, but I'm not ready
to make the compromise yet,

:25:23
and he most certainly isn't.
:25:25
Marriage is not a compromise.
It is a challenge,

:25:28
a challenge you should be
ready to accept.

:25:30
A challenge?
Certainly.

:25:32
It takes a clever woman
to make a good husband.

:25:35
That's why
there are so few of them.

:25:37
It is not difficult
to keep a man interested for one evening,

:25:41
but could you keep one interested
day after day...

:25:44
and all through the nights?
Mm. I'd like to try.

:25:47
But he said marriage is an institution
sponsored by women for women...

:25:50
and that he was never
gonna get married.

:25:52
His father, Adam Wright, thinks
he's some kind of a merry widower.

:25:55
And Eugene thinks it's just great how
daddy makes out with all the young girls.

:25:59
He wants to be just like him...
a... dirty old man.
