:16:01
- Who have you been drinking with?
- Drinking?
:16:06
- Miss Whiplash came in from over the road.
- I thought you didn't like her?
:16:09
- I don't. She was looking for you.
- Was she?
:16:12
Anyway, don't call her Miss Whiplash.
Her name is Thaxter. Betty Thaxter.
:16:18
Bet that's not what she calls herself
in those crummy little paper shops.
:16:21
"Miss Whiplash, Corrective Therapy."
Probably more like it.
:16:26
Too rich for your blood, eh?
You're a prude, you know.
:16:30
And what's more, you're a hypocrite.
:16:33
That's what you are. A hypocrite.
:16:36
Because I don't happen to get on
with a common prostitute?
:16:38
I would say that Betty Thaxter
was an exceedingly uncommon prostitute.
:16:43
- She enjoys her work, does she?
- I've never discussed it with her.
:16:47
But anyone who succeeds in being kept
in the manner that Betty's accustomed to...
:16:51
and manages to have a bit on the side...
:16:54
could hardly be described
as a common prostitute.
:16:58
A bit on the side?
:17:01
- I believe that's the expression, yes.
- I think it's rotten.
:17:04
If she's got someone to pay
for a place like that...
:17:06
the least she could do is be faithful to him.
:17:08
I'm delighted to hear you say so.
:17:12
Where were you
when I phoned you at the office?
:17:14
Told you. Mr. Katz gave us the day off.
It's a Jewish holiday.
:17:17
Really? What holiday?
:17:19
I don't know.
Feast of the contamination or something.
:17:24
He hasn't been having another go at you,
old Mr. Katz, has he?
:17:27
No, I never said he'd had a go at me
in the first place.
:17:32
- Yes, you did.
- I didn't.
:17:39
I may have said he fancied his chances.
:17:42
How do you know he fancied his chances
if he hadn't had a go at you?
:17:45
I meant he's that sort of person, that's all.
:17:48
You mean the suave,
ladykiller type, do you?
:17:51
That's what the other girls tell me.
:17:56
If that's what he's like,
why hasn't he had a go at you?
:17:59
He just hasn't, that's all.
If he had, I'd tell you.
