2:29:00
Have you had enough and will you
be reasonable or do you want any more?

2:29:04
You want me back to pick up
your slippers...

2:29:06
...and put up with your tempers
and fetch and carry for you.

2:29:09
I didn't say I wanted you back at all.
2:29:11
Then what are we talking about?
2:29:12
Well, about you, not about me.
2:29:14
If you come back you'll be treated
as you always have.

2:29:16
I can't change my nature or my manners.
2:29:18
My manners are exactly
the same as Colonel Pickering's.

2:29:21
That's not true. He treats a flower girl
as if she were a duchess.

2:29:25
I treat a duchess
as if she was a flower girl.

2:29:27
I see. The same to everybody.
2:29:30
The great secret is not a question
of good manners...

2:29:33
...or bad manners
or any particular sort of manner...

2:29:36
...but having the same manner
for all human souls.

2:29:41
The question is not
whether I treat you rudely...

2:29:44
...but whether you've ever heard me
treat anyone else better.

2:29:47
I don't care how you treat me.
2:29:49
I don't mind your swearing at me.
I shouldn't mind a black eye.

2:29:52
I've had one before this.
But I won't be passed over!

2:29:55
Get out of my way,
for I won't stop for you.

2:29:57
You talk about me as though
I was a motorbus.

2:29:59
So you are a motorbus. All bounce and go
and no consideration for anybody.

2:30:04
But I can get along without you.
Don't you think I can't!

2:30:06
I know you can. I told you, you could.
2:30:12
You've never wondered, I suppose,
whether...

2:30:14
...whether I could get along without you?
2:30:18
Don't you try to get around me.
You'll have to.

2:30:22
So I can, without you or any soul on earth.
2:30:28
I shall miss you, Eliza. I've learned
something from your idiotic notions.

2:30:32
I confess that humbly and gratefully.
2:30:37
Well, you have my voice
on your gramophone.

2:30:40
When you feel lonely without me you can
turn it on. It has no feelings to hurt.

2:30:46
Well, I can't turn your soul on.
2:30:51
You are a devil!
2:30:54
You can twist the heart in a girl
just as easily...

2:30:56
...as some can twist her arms to hurt her.
2:30:59
What am I to come back for?
