it's the first I've heard of any program

do you mean a printed program Oh

Edwin what ever is the matter with you

yesterday afternoon how nice it would be

to have them printed on gilt-edged card

so I ran down to the shop but you

weren't there so I saw beer James you

didn't say anything to me about it last

night or this morning didn't I Oh what

in big James say oh don't ask me but if

he treats all your customers the way he

treated me but never mind I shall write

the program at like What did he say I

was nobody said but he's very rude you

know other people think so too what are

the people I don't know mind who of

course I know how to take it and I know

you believe in him blindly but his airs

are preposterous and he's a dirty old

man and I say Edwin considering how very

particular you are about things at home

you really ought to see that the shop

front has kept a little cleaner I never

interfere it's not bad fair but really

what did big James fake oh I was given

to understand that was quite quite quite

impossible but his Majesty would see

well he need to see I see how wrong I

was to suggest it in the first place

I see the slightest notion of what the

business is about she came down here she

talked to big James

she gave orders I mean James she well

imagine Maggie ever doing such a thing

it's just not gonna see verbal going

into my works behind my back giving

orders rude is he so big day mrs. Wynand

sued her doctors I know it i intimated

to her the situation in which we were

placed with urgent jobs on hand as his

duty by inertia obey and the mistress

their own just intelligent Oh giggling

pleasure-loving crowd there was a time

when she wasn't but oh yes she is now

what a part of my life the outs of the

or grieves has been I wonder what will

happen to it in six months time nope

there's no doubt about it

she's inexcusable pardon me but all my

friends soon discover how difficult it

is to get rid of me I'm sleeping at the

office tonight I I thought I might as

well take one or two of my musical

instruments after all so that's how I

came back you just be the cross with

your grief

yes what is it well it appears to be

pericarditis a supervening on renal

disease he's lost consciousness you know

yes I know what's pericarditis a

pericarditis is the information of the

pericardium

what's the Parrikar the pericardium is

the membrane which which surrounds the

heart I don't mind telling you I've I've

only just acquired this encyclopedic

knowledge from dr. sterling he arrived

when I was there is it meant to be very

dangerous

no I don't know doctors never tell you

anything you can find out for yourself

[Music]

Stephanie in here have all the windows

being closed oh let me open it hmm that

will have been Edwin I suppose here's

the attack honey came on this afternoon

yes I know Janet said wonderful how

those all Greaves went through the

evening wasn't it makes you proud of

being English I suppose Janet's a great

friend of yours

Edie gone to bed has he hmm he stuck it

up jolly well

oh he brings these attacks on himself

they bring everything on ourselves

what do you think of this new schema

face video work it seems alright as a

principal I approve of course but I

don't know too much about the details

well I'm not so sure it seems to me

we're all right as we are music I don't

see any point in taking this sort of

risk and you know to be honest

Edwyn isn't right for it I mean he's

splendid but he'll never push I can look

at him quite impartial in these sort of

things I mean have you had much business

experience yourself depends what you

call business I suppose you know I used

to run a boarding house know I didn't

know know what well I may have heard

vaguely did you make it to pay it did

pay in the end but not at first

any of disasters oh yes and who came to

the rescue

Edwin did I say I think you knew all

about it

odd me almost nothing oh but you take

Edwin side are we are we talking man to

man much decidedly and I'll tell you my

leading theory the proper place for

women is in the harem mr. Montag you man

to man I can whisper sweet nothings to

you if you prefer it but I thought

people trying to be honest I hold a

belief I state it I may be wrong but I

hold that belief you can persecute me

for my belief if you like but surely

you're not afraid of an idea see if you

don't like the mere weird that's college

student on our Indian version let's call

it drawing-room in kitchen if you prefer

so we are to be kept in our sphere I'd

help be resentful naturally are to be

kept in your own sphere if everyone

started dancing around in the kitchen

you soon begin talking to him about

spheres you can't have the advantages of

married life for nothing

neither you nor he some of you women

nowadays seem to expect them gratis

let me tell you everything has to be

paid for on this particular planet now I

am bachelor often thought about getting

married of course I might get married

someday

you never know your luck but if I do it

will keep your wife in the harem and she

will have to accept without daring to

say a word all the risks you choose to

take there you are again this notion

that marriage ought to be the end of

risks that a woman is astonishingly ripe

I find it very curious it's very curious

why it's the beginning of them this is

the husband take risks yes but he

chooses his own he doesn't have business

risks thrust upon it by his wife doesn't

he

what about the risk of finding yourself

time to life to it but an inefficient

housekeeper surely that's something of a

business risk isn't it

I've known more than one man lateen for

it and you felt so sorry for him no not

especially

he must run risks when you stop running

risk you're dead and you want to be

buried I were a wife I should enjoy

running a risk with my husband I swear I

shouldn't want to shut myself up in a

glass case with him out of all drafts

why what are you alive for yeah so you

sleep at the office sometimes certain

elasticity in one's domestic

arrangements okay good night

I must go we must keep it up every other

Sunday yes there's the world outside

what happened shine it is the heavens

having fallen e are you to manage those

on your bicycle no I can't no

unfortunately I never shall I park my

bicycle at the office on the way here

there's some risks even I do not take

clarinet bass violin plus bicycle equals

falling off

good night to steamy friends with night

mrs. kanga Oh nonsense he talks about

women

edges versus edges

she may hate me but she loves me she

can't deny that

[Music]

you
