:40:01
There is your spirit, sir.
:40:03
You may go.
:40:09
My apologies, Dr. Scarabus,
for having wronged you.
:40:12
How can I express my sorrow
at this gross misunderstanding?
:40:16
But please, sir,
join me at the table.
:40:20
A little food and wine
and conversation.
:40:23
Let us not part
on such a somber note.
:40:26
You will make
this kindly gesture...
:40:29
for an old man's sake?
:40:31
Yes, of course.
:40:33
My gratitude knows no bounds.
:40:42
Dr. Bedlo, young sir.
:40:44
On my right, Dr. Craven,
if you will.
:40:47
Your lovely daughter
next to you.
:40:49
Dr. Bedlo, on my left,
if you please.
:40:53
All right.
:40:55
But don't think
l have forgotten...
:40:58
what happened
earlier this evening.
:41:01
But, sir, I hoped
you had forgotten.
:41:04
That you turned me into a raven?
:41:07
A raven?
:41:08
But, sir, you tried to kill me.
:41:11
So what?
:41:12
Under the circumstances...
:41:14
l feel I behaved
with great leniency.
:41:17
l knew that presently...
:41:18
you would find some way
to restore yourself...
:41:21
and, lo, you have,
and all is well again.
:41:23
And you didn't try to stop us
from coming here?
:41:27
Have I not yet convinced you
of my sincerity?
:41:30
Come. Eat, drink.
:41:32
Let me enjoy one full hour
of fine conviviality...
:41:35
with the son of my old friend.
:41:38
I'm sorry, sir...
:41:40
but my father never
gave me the impression...
:41:43
that you and he were anything
but mortal enemies.
:41:46
Oh, doctor. Competitors, yes.
:41:50
Contestants if you like,
but enemies? No.
:41:54
l admired him
more than any other man.
:41:57
l see.
