If I tell you, promise me
you won't tell Ogden.

1:08:03
- Why?
- He's very conservative. He might object.

1:08:07
- What are you going to do?
- Dive off the boat.

1:08:10
Oh, honey, where did you get that idea?
You'll break your neck!

1:08:14
Oh, no, no. In Hawaii, they come
in little boats and dive for money.

1:08:18
Some climb aboard
and dive off the boat. I can do that.

1:08:55
How fortunate that
my chair's next to yours.

1:09:03
Now we can talk.
1:09:07
I'm interrupting your reading.
How inconsiderate of me.

1:09:12
Nothing's more annoying than to have
someone interrupt your reading.

1:09:16
Daddy says it's a lack
of consideration for other people.

1:09:20
Where's your friend, the Ambassador?
1:09:23
He seems to have erased himself
completely during the voyage.

1:09:27
Daddy says that people who erase
themselves have a profound shyness...

1:09:32
which really means that they're
afraid of exposing themselves.

1:09:35
Hmm.
1:09:38
Oh, the silence is frightening.
1:09:41
Would you like some more music?
1:09:48
Mrs Martha Mears,
wife of Ambassador Ogden Mears...

1:09:51
will await her husband's arrival
in Honolulu this evening.

1:09:54
Rumours have been rife that
the Ambassador and his wife...

1:09:57
are getting a divorce.
1:09:58
Nevertheless, Mrs Mears says she will
accompany her husband to Washington.
