Indiscreet Page #3

Well,

if you felt that,

Why did you

have to warn me?

Because

those are the rules

Between grown-Up

men and women,

Or should be.

Trouble is, the game is

so one-Sided for a man.

Yes...

I think it is, too.

Well,

you're a rarity.

I don't believe I am.

You are.

Oh, you are.

I speak from

vast experience.

Men usually don't mention

at all that they're married.

Or if it's

something you know,

Then they tell you that

they are misunderstood

Or separated

And can't possibly

get a divorce.

The last one is the

most popular this year.

Really?

Well, Im afraid this changes

my status here morally.

Well, you're not

compromising me,

If that's what's

bothering you.

You'd have to

spend the night.

The law

is quite clear on that.

Ipso facto

if you spend the night.

I was in a play once

that had that in it.

It doesn't seem fair

to the woman.

I hope

there are loopholes.

You have a well-Developed

sense of chivalry.

I mean it

as a compliment.

I'll take it

as a compliment.

I've had a...

very enjoyable time.

So had I.

You know,

I must tell you this.

I've been sorely tempted

to break the rules,

And Ive been

debating it all evening.

Evidently your honor is

stronger than my beauty.

You see, I am separated

from my wife,

And I can't possibly

get a divorce.

That's the same line all the

others are pulling this year.

Well, how the devil could I say it

Without saying it?

You know, I can't help the fact

they're all using it so much.

There's no copyright

on it.

Well, I know.

So good night.

And thank you again.

The desk, please.

Hello, Oscar.

This is miss Kalman.

Has the gentleman

who left my apartment

Come out of

the elevator yet?

No, ma'am.

The elevator's just

on the way down.

Let me speak to him,

please.

Uh, excuse me, sir.

Miss Kalman would like to speak to you.

Thank you.

Hello?

Good seats to the ballet

are hard to get.

Will you come?

I'd like nothing better.

Good night.

I'll take

the afternoon plane.

Good night.

Ooh, it's 6:
00.

Dear, you've had

enough coffee.

Come on.

Drive carefully.

Yes.

Wipe your glasses

and hurry up.

Yes.

Good evening.

Hello.

You're very prompt.

Oh, am I?

Yes, you are.

I used to work

in a bank.

Some of it hung on.

Oh, thank you for

the beautiful roses,

But you sent

far too many.

Uh, I like yellow roses.

You're quite welcome.

Uh, well,

shall we go?

Oh...

it was rather muggy

in Paris today.

It was muggy here, too.

Really?

Yes.

I made

dinner reservations

At both the Mirabelle

and the white tower.

You have your choice.

Uh...

they don't suit you?

Yes, they do.

Ooh, they're very

nice restaurants.

It never

occurred to me

That you would make

reservations from Paris.

I arranged

something.

You did? Well, fine.

I hope you approve.

I'm sure I will.

A friend is taking us

to the players club.

Oh, I see.

It's quite a treat.

I thought it was

something unusual for you.

And since Im

not a member,

I coaxed a friend

to invite us.

Thank you.

That's very

thoughtful of you.

It's unusual for the

weather to be so muggy

This time of year.

Yes, uh...

I read an article

the other day

That claimed the world's

weather was changing.

Oh, really?

That's interesting.

Yes, isn't it?

Evening,

Miss Kalman.

Good evening.

Here she comes!

Miss Kalman, please.

Can I have

your autograph?

Just one moment,

miss Kalman.

Oh, miss Kalman.

Miss Kalman, please.

Miss Kalman.

Excuse me.

Oh, miss Kalman,

Please,

for my daughter.

She lives

in Australia.

Would you write,

"To Kitty Kins"?

That's her name.

Well, it's her nickname, really.

Her name

is Catherine,

But we all call

her Kitty Kins.

She'll be just

thrilled to get it.

Oh, I am so sorry.

The pen leaks.

It's my husband's.

Oh, I am sorry.

Good evening,

Miss Kalman.

Good evening, Albert.

I have a message

for you.

Mr. Whitehead phoned

and asked to be excused.

His aunt is ill. Would you dine

without him and please forgive him?

Of course.

Poor man.

This way,

please.

Thank you.

Shall we have

something to drink?

Yes, please.

A scotch and soda.

The same.

Oh, Albert,

the ballet tonight.

Please get us out

in time.

It shall be

our responsibility.

I hope Mr. Whitehead's

aunt is all right.

He has no aunt.

Oh, a fabrication to get

around the house committee.

Do you think you're

putting it over on Albert?

No one ever puts

anything over on Albert.

I didn't think so.

Well, to the Alberts of this world

Who have shown tolerance.

Bless them.

Amen.

It's 7:
25.

Why haven't you got

Miss Kalman out?

She's late.

I tried attracting their

attention half a dozen times.

They waved me away.

I was 12 years old,

And my father

took me to see

A performance

of Camille.

Well, that was the

experience of my life.

That poor

frail woman,

Dying of

tuberculosis,

Coughing into

her handkerchief,

Sending

her lover away.

Oh, I cried so loud,

You could hardly

hear the actors.

Well, the next day,

I convinced

the students

That we should give

Camille as our school play

With me playing Camille, of course.

Well, a 12-Year-Old

Camille,

And rather...

my mother believed in

four big meals a day

For growing children.

It wasn't exactly what Dumas had

in mind when he wrote the play.

Frankly, Henry VllI

would've suited me better.

Nothing else, Albert.

Thank you.

Excuse me,

but the ballet.

It's already 7:
30.

Oh, Albert, you should have told us.

Now we're going

to be late.

Good night.

It's all right.

It's on Mr. Whitehead.

Good night.

Thank you.

There can be

no one seated

Until the termination

of the first scene.

Oh.

Isn't she wonderful?

She looks beautiful.

She's a wonderful

actress.

Excuse me. Is there

any standing room left?

All gone.

I'm sorry.

Why don't you

try the gallery?

We did.

Just two,

perhaps.

All standing room's sold the

fire department allows. I'm sorry.

Ohh.

I know how Romeo and Juliet comes out.

It's sad.

Do you think

Mr. Whitehead can afford

This second

cup of coffee?

Thank you, Albert.

Were you always interested in finance?

No, no.

You see,

as a young man,

I didn't display any

banking tendencies at all.

As a matter of fact, my

allowance was always overdrawn,

Which is a very bad sign for a banker.

Believe it or not,

my first love was music.

I always wanted

to be a violinist.

Did you really?

Oh, yes.

And I worked at it.

And when I was

My professor thought I

was ready to give a concert

In our music academy.

Well, all my relatives

came to cheer...

and all the relatives of the

other students not to cheer,

And I was announced

from the stage.

Wild applause

from my relations.

I walked on

in my new blue suit,

Put the violin

to my chin,

And the audience

began to laugh.

Oh, small titters

at first, but it grew.

But they laughed

before you played?

Before.

But why?

Well, Im left-Handed.

It seems that left-Handed

violinists make people laugh.

Miss Kalman, we've been following you.
