:18:01
No, Mr. Bedford's gone to the village.
:18:04
- Mr. Bedford? Right.
- Won't you come in?
:18:07
- That's very nice of you. Thank you.
- He won't be long.
:18:12
- I hope l'm not intruding.
- No, not at all.
:18:15
A nice place. Known it
since l was a boy. After you.
:18:21
- Please sit down, Mr. Cavor.
- Thank you.
:18:24
- l'll bring some tea.
- That would be nice.
:18:27
You see, l'm a research scientist.
:18:30
l'm about to complete an
important scientific demonstration.
:18:36
Probably one of the
most important of all time.
:18:41
l'd like to say how pleased l am...
:18:43
...to have you
and Mr. Bedford as neighbors.
:18:50
The point is, l moved here
for the isolation.
:18:53
Mr. Cavor, we won't trouble you.
That's just what attracts Arnold.
:18:58
- He needs quiet to write his play.
- I understand that.
:19:04
- Then, what is it?
- I must tell you...
:19:07
...there's risk, even danger...
:19:08
...in my experiment.
It could damage your property.
:19:12
If Mr. Bedford would sell,
l'd pay anything within reason.
:19:21
- You want to buy Cherry Cottage?
- Yes, l do. Yes.
:19:25
- How much were you figuring?
- Well, l'm not very good at this.
:19:29
l thought perhaps £1000,
maybe more.
:19:32
Well, that's $5000.
:19:35
The cottage has been in
Mr. Bedford's family for years.
:19:39
He has a deep attachment to it.
:19:42
l see. The trouble is, my experiments
have cost me so much...
:19:46
Of course, l might be
able to double it.
:19:49
Good Lord. l forgot.
The furnace! The furnace!
