:22:00
Mrs Erlynne has her own seats.
:22:02
Who pays for them?
:22:04
Her uncle just died.
She's come into some money.

:22:06
And Mr Windemere's visits?
:22:09
He's managing her investments,
of course.

:22:11
You're so fond of gossip.
:22:13
You don't give the truth a chance
to put its pants on.

:22:15
It's not the truth that's going without
pants, dear Tuppy.

:22:19
Would you mind not smoking?
:22:22
Opera makes me feel so romantic.
:22:24
Anything too stupid to be
said is sung.

:22:28
How's that romantic?
:22:29
And the women are
always so fleshy!

:22:33
Excuse me, that's my foot.
:22:36
Right over here?
:22:38
What did I tell you?
:22:50
Stop, boy!
:22:54
Fried anchovies and clams
in a bog. Delicious.

:23:01
Careful, it's hot.
:23:02
You told Robert we were
going to the club.

:23:04
I have a very poor sense
of direction.

:23:06
You have a very poor sense
of decorum.

:23:08
I never use that word.
I'm not sure what it means.

:23:10
- At the club we'd be with other people.
- You're right.

:23:13
Here we are,
in the sunshine...

:23:15
eating fish, literally
just off the boat...

:23:17
when we could be squashed between Lord
Tubby and Cecil the Scintillating...

:23:21
listening to one or the
other gripe about his digestion...

:23:24
while the Contessa, in a
counter-medley, wails that...

:23:26
Alessandra cares more for...
:23:28
the mating habits of the
blue bellied finch...

:23:31
than those of her own species,
and the widow Plymdale...

:23:33
bats her eyes logingly every
passing pair of trou.

:23:36
All of which is time well
spent in my book.

:23:39
So, yes, I take your point.
:23:41
I can't argue. At the club, we'd
be with other people.

:23:44
Afraid we'll be seen?
:23:47
Set the chins wagging?
:23:50
Do you know what I find
worse than being talked about?

:23:53
Not being talked about at all.
