moment I arrived I only heard a word or

two here and there accidental of course

doctors and I find it No thank you I can

manage please leave me alone.

well as I said about the tourney

oh why don't you bring madam out where

the battlements of course we do her last

remarks are leaving here did not suggest

that she was going home quite the

reverse infection.

I don't care what you do darling but you

must do something

I intend to what give Howard cause for

divorce I thought I'd made that clear

you can't do that right in the middle of.

Joan's wedding and what about your

father

the City of London is not going to

deprive it some of his next Lord Mayor

but free for anything I may do I do wish

you wouldn't be so practical thought

that was a good thing we must have

become more inhibited than we are my

sweet Howard we'll take Tony you realize

that you wouldn't have him as a gift

it's because of Tony I intend to go

through with this I must have a free

hand with him but Tony is Howard's child

too we've got dozens more in his clinic

[Music]

[Music]

Maritime that's padeen it's not from the

mrs. Tony's head master dr. Becky will

be calling at 10:30 I hope you won't

discuss the incipient of poliomyelitis

in the infant groups

walked in on him and said Howard darling

be a very nice gesture you could get a

taxi a jelly cross

hello hello Howard how are you dear

Cross headache Clare just here she wants

to apologize in j'tia

hello Howard I think it's about time we

stop this nonsense and you came home

what I'm I mean the situation needs

serious thought no quite sure you're

capable of it oh yes thank you quite

capable surprising out to some of your

recent remarks well if you recall our

conversation you'll find you said as

much as I did with the possible

difference that my observations were

made within the bounds of common sense

whereas you completely overstep the mark

oh well never mind about that I just

want you to know that I I meant what I

said but so did I mean every word of it

very well you better come back and

discuss it no thank you

[Music]

Who started tena drying anyway nobody

started him he's always done it he's

drawn since he was two how couldn't it

be guy didn't does have other channel

couldn't you be made to see things in

the way other people see them that's

hard argument it's fatal Tony must see

things for himself and make his own

decisions then he'll become somebody I

think that is a fairly dangerous

argument why what about Picasso and

Augustus John how did they start not on

walls I'm quite sure we don't know make

him draw the right kind of things

flowers and vegetables fish new life

he doesn't like still life he likes

animals and people I thought it'd be

quite easy for you to make him see that

the whole anatomy of animals and people

it's meant to go into drawing otherwise

what there's a conscious don't let's

argue about Tony very well but you've

met your Waterloo in that child hmm

I meant it in Howard okay you're

fighting the Battle of Waterloo darling

you don't mind my not coming up with

there's a dead deer

after all it's only fittings again it's

name only fittings

it's her final fitting for her wedding

dress what exactly knows I'm not

supposed to see it until the day the

seams very little point you mind coming

up besides I've got to ring the officer

never overdo your excuses my boy once

officially good one.

Oh daddy you might get Jim find out

these things for themselves be scratchy

pet familiar symptoms eve of execution I

think the atmosphere here is just

charming Claire away from my husband and

stopping at marriage and everything it

means darling you're not going to the

guillotine if we were you'll be there

with your knitting where are those

children what about your trained ear and

you off to see Howard I've decided not

to interfere I feel certain Claire can

look after herself there's a lot of

dangerous propaganda floating about this

household and I suspect somebody has

been studying their karl marx brothers

doctrine where are those girls coming.

Mountain Joe.

Oh God in the morning I felt like one so

I'm having one very good in all the 28

years of our married life you've never

done such that's why it's very good and

your dream catch the next huh the City

of London won't collapse if I'm an hour

late

it's been a lifelong rule of yours of

yours my dear is so bad for all of your

good stuff but very good for mine

you said yourself there was a spirit of

revolution in the family I can see

you're not I never felt better my dear

I've been thinking of what Claire said

on the subject of self-expression and I

agree with that and if I could draw like.

Tony I draw you in all your feathers

like a bird on her nest sitting pretty

is Raven who whatever the journey has

been brought into this house he's got it

what's he talking about all I can say is

thank goodness my thing come along chick

correct your elders.
