:35:01
Like hell she didn't!
She's always been a spiteful, little pest.

:35:05
Since the age of one, you know,
she kept throwing her toys...

:35:08
...out of her crib so that I would have
to keep stooping over to pick them up.

:35:12
She has always had some kind
of gripe against me.

:35:15
Now she sees herself
as some kind of a starlet.

:35:18
Well, I see her as a sturdy,
healthy but decidedly homely child.

:35:23
I mean, is it my fault if I feel young?
:35:26
Why should my child resent it?
You don't resent it, do you?

:35:29
Do you think I'm just a foolish,
romantic American girl?

:35:34
No...no.
:35:44
Why don't I throw on a wrap and we can
go out for a little ride in the car?

:35:48
Well, it's a little late, Charlotte.
:35:51
Well, let's at least finish
our champagne, shall we?

:35:55
I've had a very exhausting evening.
I think I'd best go to bed.

:35:59
But it's not even 1:00.
:36:01
My neuralgia's about to strike
with heartburn, an old ally, and so....

:36:07
Goodnight, and thank you
for a charming evening.

:36:11
You're very welcome.
:36:47
What drives me insane is
the twofold nature of this nymphet...

:36:52
...of every nymphet, perhaps.
:36:54
This mixture in my Lolita of tender,
dreamy childishness...

:36:59
...and a kind of eerie vulgarity.
