:39:13
-Oh, no!
-Not a very cordial greeting.
:39:17
l went to considerable trouble to arrange
these few precious moments alone.
:39:21
-Leave the table.
-lt's National Crime Prevention Week.
:39:24
-Take a Burglar to Dinner.
-My escort has a very ugly temper.
:39:28
Now go and call off
that fake telephone call.
:39:31
There's something l must tell you.
:39:32
-How l'd like to take another shot at you!
-lt's important!
:39:35
Quittez pas! What is that?
:39:40
l'm going to quittez pas right now.
:39:42
Either you leave this table
or l start screaming.
:39:44
-Yes, l'll go.
-Choose!
:39:46
Just tell me where and when we can meet.
:39:48
Choose! And make it fast!
:39:53
Remember, Simon Dermott.
Room 136, the Ritz. lt's urgent.
:40:04
The Ritz!
:40:10
Now, where were we?
:40:13
With my father and his collection.
:40:15
Oh, yes.
:40:17
l hate to have
to tell you this, Miss Bonnet.
:40:22
-l arranged our meeting.
-Why?
:40:24
lt's this ridiculous obsession.
lt devours me.
:40:29
From the minute l first laid eyes on it,
l was lost, helpless...
:40:32
completely caught up
in this awful compulsion.
:40:38
Laid eyes on what?
:40:39
The Cellini Venus, of course.
l saw it last night. lt haunted me.
:40:43
l can't think of anything else.
l haven't slept a wink all night.
:40:46
Today, when l learned
your father wouldn't sell it...
:40:49
l started pulling strings to meet you...
:40:51
hoping somehow to use you
to get the Venus.
:40:55
Well, that's it.
:40:57
-You poor, dear man!
-No!
