Mr. Broder,
is your wife at home?
:19:07
She's in the, uh, in the toilet.
:19:10
A dear soul.
This is Mr. Pesheles, from Sea Gate.
:19:15
I told him you sell
books and you write.
:19:17
He's very interested in books.
:19:20
Look, Mrs. Schreier,
I'm terribly sorry.
:19:22
- This is a very bad time for me.
- It will only take a few minutes.
:19:25
- Mr. Pesheles is a rich man.
- Oh!
:19:28
President of the biggest home
for the aged in New York.
:19:31
- He's on the board of three hospitals.
- Mrs. Schreier, please.
:19:33
I don't need publicity.
If I need a publicity agent,
I'll hire one.
:19:38
Well, uh, come in.
:19:45
And, uh, thi-this is a friend of mine.
:19:50
She's, uh, she's from Europe.
She's just here a few weeks.
:19:54
But you're not like
a greenhorn at all.
You look like an American.
:19:58
And gorgeous!
You know what?
:20:01
Let's all go down to your place.
:20:03
I'll send out
for some bagels and lox
and maybe even some cognac.
:20:07
And then we'll all
have a nice chat.
:20:10
Now, what kind of books
did you say you wrote?
:20:16
Would you excuse me,
please, for one second.
:20:26
Hello?
:20:29
Broder? This is Rabbi Lembeck.
:20:31
So you do have a phone, huh?
But not the Bronx, Brooklyn.
:20:35
"Esplanade-2" is somewhere
near Coney Island.
:20:37
Yeah, well,
my friend moved.
:20:40
I'm not as big a fool
as you think I am, Broder.
:20:43
I know everything.
Absolutely everything.
:20:45
You married some woman named
Masha. You wouldn't even tell me
so I can congratulate you.
:20:48
Listen, I'm calling you because
I gotta see you right away.
:20:52
You made several serious errors
in the cabala article. It does
neither of us any credit.
:20:56
If we can make the corrections
immediately, they'll hold
the presses until tomorrow.
