and after all,
she is now thirty-eight.

:20:02
l must say,
she doesn't look thirty-eight.

:20:04
That is because
she is forty-nine.

:20:09
So Madame has decided
to leave ballet...

:20:11
and spend life
bringing up her child.

:20:13
How admirable.
:20:14
Problem is how to find father.
:20:16
Oh, is he missing?
:20:18
Correct.
:20:19
And that's why
you've called me in.

:20:20
Also correct.
:20:22
We must have father.
:20:23
Because without father,
how could there be child?

:20:25
Oh, l see.
:20:27
The whole thing is still
in the planning stage.

:20:31
Correct again.
:20:32
Madame would like child...
:20:33
to be brilliant
and beautiful.

:20:36
Since she is beautiful,
she needs man who is brilliant.

:20:39
Zo sdarovya!
:20:48
What's in it?
:20:49
What does it taste like?
:20:50
Red pepper.
:20:51
That's what's in it.
:20:55
l beg your pardon?
:20:56
Madame would like to know
when you can be ready.

:20:58
-Ready?
-To leave for Venice.

:21:00
All the arrangements
have been made.

:21:01
You will spend
one week there with Madame--

:21:03
This is all
very flattering...

:21:04
but surely
there are other men...

:21:05
better men.
:21:06
To tell truth...
:21:07
you were not
the first choice.

:21:09
We considered
Russian writer...Tolstoy.

:21:11
Oh, that's more like it.
The man's a genius.

:21:14
Too old.
:21:15
Then we considered
philosopher...Nietzsche.

:21:18
Well, absolutely
first-rate mind.

:21:19
Uh-uh, too German.
:21:20
Then we considered
Tchaikovsky.

:21:23
Oh, you couldn't go
wrong with Tchaikovsky.

:21:25
We could, and we did.
:21:27
lt was catastrophe.
:21:30
Why?
:21:31
We don't know.
:21:33
Because Tchaikovsky--
:21:36
how shall l put it?
:21:39
Women...not his glass of tea.
:21:44
Oh, pity, that.
:21:50
Madame is very happy
with her final choice.

:21:53
Madame must not be too hasty.
:21:55
She must remember
that l am an Englishman.

:21:57
So?
:21:58
You know what
they say about us.

:21:59
lf there's one thing
more deplorable...
