matter compared to that.

Let me go out of your life. Forget me.

No one saw you leave?

No.

So if you say nothing...

...if you let them think what they like...

...[EXHALES]

No, Karel.

How could we have a life together?

We could never look at one another again.

No.

[SNIFFLING]

I must go to the police.

I beg you, think it over till the

morning. Till we can talk to a lawyer.

It matters so much what you tell

them. These things have to be planned.

I've planned everything up to now.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

MAN:
Mr. Novak?

- See what it's brought us?

[KNOCKING CONTINUES]

They're getting impatient, Karel.

Remember the other dressing room?

Then I had just found you.

Now l...

You'll never lose me.

Strange...

...in all the weeks we've been

together, we've never been so close.

[LOUDER KNOCKING]

We must go, Karel.

Yes.

[TEARFULLY] Forgive me.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]...

...[APPLAUSE]...

Magnificent.

- Wonderful.

Nice.

- Karel, you were wonderful.

What a splendid performance.

WOMAN:
I haven't heard

anything as fine in years.

Good night, Mr. Swansen.

If you and Mrs. Novak are

not engaged for supper...

I'm afraid we can't. As a matter

of fact, we have to leave at once.

oh, that's too bad.

- I'm extremely sorry.

Well, I want to thank

you all for your kindness.

I really have to go.

Good night. CROWD: Good

night. Good night.

[CROWD CHATTERING]

It was wonderful, it

was absolutely wonderful.

I wouldn't have missed

it for a thousand dollars.

Thank you, Mr. Gribble.

oh, Christine, you must be the

happiest woman in the world.
