:52:13
Did you have to make
the weather so cold?
:52:15
Did you have to see him?
:52:17
l was curious.
:52:19
l wanted to have a look at him
as long as he was here.
:52:22
As long as you couldn't
kill him on the way.
:52:23
How was I to know
that you wanted Erasmus here?
:52:26
You never tell me anything.
:52:28
Besides, I thought
he might find out about me...
:52:30
and make an unpleasant scene.
:52:32
Would you undo me, please?
:52:36
Your hands are so cold.
:52:39
I'm always fascinated
by your utter lack of scruples.
:52:44
You knew what you were getting.
:52:47
Did I ever pretend
that I came here...
:52:48
because of your charm?
:52:50
l came here because of
your wealth and your power...
:52:53
and in return
l gave you my company.
:52:59
And if you insist
on anything more...
:53:01
you will only succeed
in boring me...
:53:04
whereupon I shall leave you
as I left Erasmus.
:53:07
How, my darling treasure?
:53:09
By making me think
that you have died?
:53:12
Hardly.
:53:13
Tell me, my...precious viper...
:53:17
how did you know
that he was coming here...
:53:20
since, as you pointed out
so petulantly...
:53:23
l never tell you anything?
:53:25
l didn't, at first.
:53:27
l only guessed...
:53:29
after you turned that dismal
little fat man into a blackbird.
:53:33
A raven, my love.
:53:35
Whatever.
:53:36
l knew he wouldn't
go for help...
:53:38
to a magician who was
in the brotherhood.
:53:40
Of course!
:53:43
And that left only Dr. Craven.
:53:48
How deftly nimble is your mind.
:53:52
Why were you so sure
that Bedlo would see...
:53:54
a portrait of me
in Erasmus' house?
:53:57
lf you wanted Erasmus here...
:53:58
wasn't it a rather farfetched
way of bringing him here?
