:38:01
MATTY: l told him we weren't selling.
-Right.
:38:03
NED:
That hasn't changed, has it?
:38:05
No, we're very happy with it.
:38:08
l can understand that.
lt's a terrific place.
:38:11
Are you going in?
:38:13
l was going to grab a bite.
:38:15
Join us.
:38:17
-No! Thanks, l don't want to interfere.
-No. Don't be silly.
:38:20
We have room for three, don't we?
:38:23
EDMUND: lt's great,
but you can't get near it on weekends.
:38:25
-l don't get down during the week much.
NED: ls that right?
:38:30
l was a lawyer.
l still am, but l don't practice.
:38:34
-l went to Columbia. And you?
NED: F.S.U.
:38:37
EDMUND: A good school.
l got bored with it quick.
:38:41
l didn't have the temperament for it.
:38:43
l wanted to make the money faster.
:38:46
EDMUND:
ls there a living in it here?
:38:48
l can afford to send out my shirts. . .
:38:51
. . .and eat here once a month
if l don't order an appetizer.
:38:57
Honest lawyers don't make much
and the other kind are too slimy for me.
:39:02
l'd rather be up-front
about shafting somebody.
:39:04
MATTY:
Edmund, really!
:39:06
-lt's his profession.
NED: That's all right.
:39:08
l don't like it much.
:39:10
Call me Ned, will you?
:39:12
EDMUND:
What's to like?
:39:14
lt's the way of the world.
Most people despise their jobs.
:39:17
Do you?
:39:21
EDMUND:
No, l love it.
:39:23
But it's not a job.
:39:25
What is it exactly?
:39:29
l do various things.
This and that.
:39:32
EDMUND: Here and there.
NED: You don't have to be specific.
:39:37
Finance, basically.
Venture capital, real estate. . .
:39:40
. . .investments.
We're into a few things.
:39:43
-Around here?
EDMUND: Some.
:39:45
EDMUND:
Some things here.
:39:46
Edmund's company owns The Breakers.
:39:49
NED: Really?
EDMUND: lt's not that simple, really.
:39:53
We have an interest
in a few places along the shore.
:39:55
For the land, someday.
:39:59
Don't try explaining it to her.
