2:21:00
She is indisposed,
resting in her room -
2:21:03
and not to be disturbed.
2:21:04
My mother is out and I am busy.
2:21:06
His Grace might be annoyed if -
2:21:10
What is this concerning?
2:21:12
Some months ago,
His Grace proposed a business deal.
2:21:19
Really? I don't recall.
2:21:21
Of course not, miss Vergerus.
2:21:23
His grace is careful to spare
his family such trivial worries.
2:21:27
What worries of his
could concern you?
2:21:31
Please don't force me to be vulgar.
2:21:33
To be candid, Mr. Jacobi,
I find you unpleasant.
2:21:37
I've neither the time
nor the inclination to speak with you.
2:21:41
- Good-bye, Mr. Jacobi.
- A pecuniary predicament.
2:21:45
I beg your pardon?
2:21:46
Your brother, His Grace,
was in a pecuniary predicament.
2:21:50
- May I sit down?
- Not there! There.
2:21:54
In a peculiar way -
I don't know why -
2:21:57
I appreciate your straightforwardness.
2:22:00
And I do not appreciate
your fawning.
2:22:04
What business do you have
with my brother?
2:22:07
None at all, as far as I know.
2:22:10
I'm tired of your riddles.
2:22:11
Tell me what's on your mind and go.
2:22:13
I must speak to His Grace first.
It's a matter of money.
2:22:18
A lot of money.
2:22:21
Does my brother owe you money?
2:22:23
On the contrary.
It's like this:
2:22:27
In November
His Grace wanted to borrow money.
2:22:29
Regrettably, Jews have certain principles,
like never lending money to the clergy.
2:22:34
He suggested I should buy that chest
for a reasonable sum.
2:22:39
I declined.
2:22:41
So you declined.
2:22:43
Foolishly so,
since Ive now changed my mind.
2:22:47
I'd like to buy that chest,
and at almost any price.
2:22:52
Almost.
2:22:57
I will get my brother.
