I didn't realize the jelly was that
good.

But you're thinking too much about
technique and I want real emotion.

You didn't make me care and you
certainly didn't make the audience care.

David, I'm tired.

I'm here, helping you to improve.

A bit late now, isn't it? No, Isabel,
it's never too late. And we have the

ballet to work on. You sure used to want
me in it. Why don't you go and find

somebody else?

Come on in.

David, this is Beatrice and Evie
Elliott. I told you I modelled their

yes. And this is Beatrice's husband,
Jack Maddox. David Devereux, our manager

and choreographer.

And Isabel Novak's our principal dancer.

Hello. We enjoyed it very much indeed.

Thank you.

I really hope we're not intruding.

No, not at all.

Would you like a glass of wine?

Yes, please. Thank you. Thank you.

Well, I really must congratulate you. I
thought the show was quite beautiful.

Thank you. I'm glad you thought it was
beautiful. I did what I could, but did

you fully understand it? Can a dancer
really communicate with you as an

through a set of tired, classical
gestures?

Well, what I understood, I enjoyed,
nevertheless.

And judging by the audience reaction, I
don't think we were alone.

Forgive me.

As a company, we need to perform the
popular classics because it pays the

So given a free hand, Mr. Devereux, what
sort of ballet would you perform?

Well, I do think that to define it is to
confine it. You create your own work,

like Diaghilev?

In a way, my ballets are more abstract.

They're about shape and space and power
and fear.

In fact, the piece I'm working on at the
moment is about relationships.

Oh, really?

Yes, really.

Why not?

It's absolutely going to be terribly
good.

Well, I shall look forward to seeing it.

Yes. Yes, you should.

It must be that bad, you know.

Sounds fascinating.

Isn't it good to meet someone who's so
committed to what they're doing?

I find I've put a person terribly in
factional. What did you think of me?

Not well.

But it's very unpleasant for Isabel.

No amount of passion and commitment
gives you the right to be rude to people

like that.

Evie, is her brother not here yet?

No, she telephoned to say she'd be a
little late.

Oh, I hope she isn't too late. I really
want to get away early today.

Well, I can manage things here.

Are you spending your anniversary at the
cottage?

Yes. Well, you go off and get yourself
ready, and I'll deal with Mrs.

Fairbrother. All right.

And Bea, have a wonderful time.

Sorry, Jack. Can I carry something?

You can take these if you like.

Start as you mean to continue. Oh, Jack.

Hello.

Hello, James.

I'm fine. How are you?

How's Francis?

I'm sorry, James.

Because... Because nothing's changed.

Why are you making things so difficult
for me?

No!

James, I really think it's best if we
don't see each other again.

Yes, I am sure.

Goodbye, James.

Hello.

Happy anniversary.

Happy anniversary.

Oh.

Oh,

that is beautiful.

Shall we go out and celebrate tonight?
No. No?

No. Tonight I'm in charge.

Oh.

Hello.

Oh, Jessie, I'm sorry.

I thought it was someone else.

No, I'm all right, honestly.

What can I do for you?

I'd love to come to a party.

I don't have an escort, though.

Well, if you're sure.

No, I won't find your ballet friends
boring. I'll look forward to meeting

This is so bohemian. You don't mind?

It's delightful.

You look very happy. I am. I'm happy.
I'm relaxed.

I'm very well fed.

Oh, Jack, we spend too much time apart.

I know.

It's good just to be together like this,
isn't it?

Pan and I used to love this place when
we were little.

I can imagine.

We used to fill the house with all kinds
of nonsense.

Dead fish, skeletons of things, buckets
full of frog spawn.

What did your parents say about that?
Oh, they encouraged us.

You're so lucky.

I remember I brought a frog in from the
garden once. My father told the maid to

take it out and kill it immediately
before we all caught diphtheria.

What? It's true.

We won't be like that when we have
children.

We won't be stern and stuffy.

We'll bring them down here every
weekend.

Father will love that.

He can take them exploring by the lake
with his endless jam jars like he used

with me.

And we can...

This, this is what we should be working
on, the music that's being written now.

Do you have any strong opinions about
this, Isabel?

If your opinion's a week, they're
obviously not worth having in the first

I hope you're taking notice.

No, I actually quite agree with him.

I think it's a sad state of affairs when
there's no passion in what you do.

Thank you, Elia.

I'm surrounded.

Oh, absolute stuff, David.

You're surrounded with dedicated people,
working themselves into a standstill

for nothing, just to make home the type
of success.

Humph. The new ballet.

I took the title from a line in a poem
by John Downey.

Canonisation, do you know it?

No.

Thus invokes you whom reverent love made
one another's hermitage. You to whom

love was peace, but now is rage.

What I said was I didn't want to have
children yet.

Please try and understand that, Jack. I
understand perfectly well. You don't

want children at all. That is not true.
I want a family. Of course I do.

Children are an enormous commitment,
Jack. You can't just have them and

them while you get on with the rest of
your life. I know that.

It's the rest of your life that worries
me. It's always there.

The house of Elliot is very important to
me, Jack. God, you don't have to tell

me that. I lived in his blasted shadow
the last year.

I didn't realize you resented it that
much.

I do not resent it.

What I object to is always, always
coming a very poor second.

Jack, I so wanted to have children.

And we're both?

Well... Yes.

I'm 35.

And very soon it'll be too late.

Don't be silly.

No, it's all right. You're not far wrong
there.

Jack, I'm going in. Are you coming?

We've all seen it. Two people fall in
love. They feel personally fulfilled.

They're expanded and godlike.

Anything is possible.

And then comes a time when they realize
their god's feet are made of clay. But

rather than admit disappointment or
disillusion, they reach a kind of tacit

truce. And then the clay starts to
crumble.

And they start clawing for survival.

And their own needs cripple the other
person.

And the whole relationship destroys
them.

Now, can you tell me there's not a
ballet in that?

I wouldn't dare.

Are you seriously, Evie?

What do you think?

I think it's a stunning idea.

Very modern.

Yes, I suppose after something like
that, Swan Lake does seem terribly dull.

Dull and staid.

What about in the look of the ballet?

Would that be contemporary as well?

Yes.

And very simple, of course.

apart from anything else. It's much
cheaper that way.

I think the dancers ought to be dressed
in ordinary, everyday clothes.

Why?

Well, because from what you were saying,
I gathered the idea is to show

ordinary, everyday relationships.

Don't be absurd.

You shouldn't be so dismissive, David.

It could be to your own advantage.

Excuse me, I'm going to speak to Charlie
Milton.

Whoops.

They obviously have a lot to learn about
contemporary ballet.

Nonsense. I think it's a very
interesting idea.

David does too, I suppose.

He probably did put out because he
didn't think of it himself.

How long have you been out here?

An hour or so.

I woke in the middle of the night and
you went there.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

For spoiling a beautiful evening. For
spoiling our anniversary.

It doesn't matter.

It does.

There'll be other anniversaries.

Jack, I can't change my mind about
having children.

Not overnight.

I know, I know.

I don't expect you to.

Good morning, Joseph.

Good morning, Miss Elliot. What a
pleasant weekend, I trust.

Quite pleasant, yes, thank you.

And you?

Took the family on a picnic.

Joseph, what is this?

I'm afraid I've no idea.

It is the earring that went missing at
the collection.

How on earth did it get there?

Well, because someone must have put it
there. A more interesting question is

who.

Good morning, Agnes.

Putting out the braids for Miss
Fairbrother to see, that's all. Good.

Agnes, I don't suppose you know anything
about this?

No.

I mean, what is it?

Well, it's the earring that went missing
at the collection. Someone's just

returned it and I was just wondering
who.

Oh, well, it wasn't me.

I haven't been near the office this
morning.

Well, I did find it in the office, but I
didn't tell you that, Agnes.

Did you put it there?

Thanks, Miss Elliot.

I've never done nothing like that before
in my life.

Agnes, why?

I don't know.

It's all this jewellery.

Well, I ain't never worn gold before.

Not real gold.

Well, it was one little earring and I
tried it on and... I didn't think it'd

messy.

I didn't realise you'd end up paying for
it.

And you thought you'd just return it and
nothing more would be said.

Oh, Agnes.

What are you going to do now, Miss
Elliot?

I don't know, Agnes. I really don't
know.

Oh, Agnes, what are you doing with that
braid? Look at it.

Oh, it's not that bad.

There's no need to start sobbing.

Oh, no.

What's the matter?

The proper course of action is to tell
the police, of course. Yes, I know. No,

we can't.

That would ruin her entire life.

Evie, Agnes very nearly ruined our
entire business reputation.

We've barely recovered from the
embarrassment. Yes, but we will, and it

an embarrassment.

Agnes won't recover if she's branded as
a thief.

Oh.

Should we just dismiss her, then?

People will be bound to ask for
references. Without lying to our teeth,

will we say?

Oh, there's been enough lies.

I don't know.

For the moment, Joseph, this doesn't go
beyond these four walls.

Of course not.

Come in.

Tilly, what can I do for you?

Can I have a word, Miss Beatrice?

In private.

Thank you, Joseph.

What is it, Tilly?

It's about Agnes.

She's told me what she's done.

Yes.

It's all right, Tilly. I know all about
it.

It's just that... she's not a bad girl,
Miss B.

I mean, normally you'd trust her with
anything.

She really isn't a thief.

But she did steal.

Oh, she's dead stiff and breaking her
heart down there over one flipping

earring. It wouldn't even be worth all
that much down the pop shop on its own,

so what good's that to anyone?

Oh, sorry.

What do you think, Bea?

I think Agnes is lucky to have a friend
as loyal as Tilly.

I will speak to her myself later, but
for the moment, tell her to get on with

her work.

And there will be no police.

Right. Well, go on, then.

You made the right decision, Will.

Did I? Mm -hm.

Are you still busy, Miss Elliot, or may
I have a word?

Is it important?

Yes, I think it is.

What's this?

Invoices, Miss Elliot.

To be accurate, invoices that have been
sent out but are as yet unsettled.

My first concern is that these
particular deaths have been outstanding

time. Joseph, I had no idea there was
this amount of money involved.

My point exactly.

You see, we ourselves owe considerable
sums to various suppliers.

Who?

Heller and Sons, Cameron's, and I heard
a letter this morning from the India

Silk Trading Company saying that unless
their account is settled within seven

days, they'll be forced to suspend all
further dealings with us.

Oh, no. Can we do it, Joseph?

Just about, but it leaves us precious
little in reserve.

All right.

Settle the most pressing bill, then try
and get some of the other something on

account. Very well, Mr Elliot. Thank
you.

How serious is the situation?

Well, we have very few options, Evie.

I think the best thing for us to do is
to convert some of our investments into

cash.

And now we have to convince Sir Royan
that that's a good idea.

Miss Elliot, by withdrawing your
investments, you will receive a 20 %

That means for every £100 you've
invested, you will receive £20 in cash.

Well, I'm sure Sir Desmond would have
found a way to avoid that.

His advice to us was that... Was
obviously not as round as you imagined.

And unless the circumstances are
extremely urgent, I have to advise most

strongly against the withdrawal.

And if the circumstances are that
urgent... Then I would have to assume

there is something very amiss with the
way that you handle your affairs, Miss

Elliot. This is purely a temporary
measure, Mr. Soroyan. If we can't pay

suppliers, we can't make clothes and we
can't sell them.

Once our clients have settled their
debts, there'll be no problem. But until

then, we have no choice.

There are always choices.

Such as?

You already have a loan agreement in
place.

Arranged by Sir Desmond.

It means paying interest, of course. How
much interest?

A little above the current pending rate,
I'm afraid, but the money has always

been instantly available.

What other choice have I got?

I can get my chief accountant to draw up
the agreement now.

Shall I?

Very well.

Thank you.

My pleasure.

Well, I'm sorry you feel that way, Lady
Howgate, but it is our company's policy.

We must insist that the accounts from
one commission are settled before we can

arrange fittings for the next.

And good day to you too, Lady Howgate.

Yes, Joseph, what is it?

I was just wondering if you had the
other part of this loan agreement.

What other part?

It's just that the actual terms of the
agreement aren't specified here. I

assumed they'd be set out in more detail
elsewhere.

Well, there probably are, most likely,
there in Mr. Soroyan's office. I'm

perhaps you could follow that up for us.

Yes, of course, Miss Elliot. Thank you,
Joseph.

Right, Evie, who's next?

Mrs. Fairbrother, she has two
commissions still outstanding.

Excuse me.

It appears that David Devereaux took
your suggestion quite seriously, Miss

Evangeline. And if you're still
interested, he'd like the House of

make costumes for his ballet.

An entire ballet?

B, this could be really interesting.

Evie.

I'm just remembering something you once
said. What was that?

When we were asked to do that baby
party, you were so adamant that we

get a reputation as a costumier. See,
that was just a silly baby party. This

an entire ballet.

And not just any ballet, either.

The London Ballet Ensemble is acquiring
a very impressive reputation.

To be associated with one of their
productions would do the House of Elliot

harm at all.

You think so?

It's my professional opinion that the
London Ballet Ensemble and those that

patronise it are exactly the right sort
of clients for the House of Elliot.

What are you going to wear to Luke's
wedding, Edward?

I've got this smashing hat. Well, I
mean, it's just a simple cloche, you

didn't make any dog games or anything.

I would like a little less chatter,
please, and for you to get on with your

work. We are getting on with our work,
Mrs. Dramby, just as quick as ever we

can. It would be nice if you put the
same enthusiasm into all our commission.

Oh, I think we do.

Besides, this is a special commission.

Oh, in fact, Tilly's wedding dress is
Miss Evie's own commission.

Personally, Tilly, I'd have thought
something simpler would have been more

suitable. Miss Eve has never been wrong
yet about what's suitable. I can't see

her making a mistake about somebody
she's fond of.

Mrs. Rambey, the wedding's on the 21st
at St.

Cecilia's.

Well, everyone else is going.

It'd be nice if you could be there too.

That's very kind of you, Tilly.

But I'm afraid I'm visiting my niece
that weekend.

You're a saint, Tilly Watkins. I
wouldn't invite that woman to her own

Well, I didn't really think she'd say
yes.

What do you think?

It's extraordinary.

Did you convert the movie?

Yes. Of course, I must admit I've been
influenced by Stravinsky's work with the

Ballet Ruth.

I found it all very moving.

You see, whatever happens through the
second act, you must always know there

love in the first act.

May regret it, may resent it.

It's always there, even right at the
end.

And they've torn themselves apart
through unfounded jealousy.

And they've become separate people
again.

You must always know there was love.

It's a very bleak view of a
relationship.

Is it unrealistic?

No, just bleak.

See, what Evie said made sense.

Everyday clothes for everyday
situations.

I want you to make me some clothes that
appear ordinary.

At first sight.

Could we use colour? The same dresses,
but getting progressively darker in

act.

Two people in the same tones to start
off with, then each colour and shape

becoming progressively different.

Yes.

Do some sketches.

Yes, I... Well, we will.

So, this is the effect of dye painted
onto the toile with a brush.

What do you think?

I think it could work quite well, Evie.

What do you think?

I think it looks like a tatty bit of
twirl with paint on.

Evie, let's be a bit more positive.

Twirl is cheap, it's easy to make, and
it takes colour well.

I know it would be wonderful to use
silks and chiffons, but their budget

does not allow for that.

Apart from the creative challenge, I'm
tempted to ask why we took this

commission at all.

It's not going to make us any money.

Evie, you were as keen on the project as
I, right? No, but when David said he

had limited resources, I didn't realise
he meant they were non -existent.

I'm considering the state of our
resources at the moment.

Look, Evie, I've had an idea.

Why don't we use some of the original
fabric from the Impressionist

No, do it faster.

How does that feel, Isabel?

Feels good.

More importantly, how does it look?

It looks extremely good.

The second design, Lieutenant.

Thank you, Florence.

Now, you see, we keep the dress the
same, but as the woman's jealousy

we start to see the flashes of colour.
And then in the second act, this

particular dress darkens to a deep red.

Yeah, that's good.

Now, what about the man?

We thought he should take his clothes
off.

What? Not completely, but if the point
you're trying to make is that jealousy

and passion strip away conventional
behaviour, we... Why don't we let Isabel

change and we can talk further in my
office?

I'll help you out with that. Thanks.

A lot of artists and theatre people tend
to come in here. Really?

Cheap, cheerful, but they don't stint on
the portions.

I never thought that was the last thing
you'd be concerned about, large

portions. I always thought dancers had
to worry about their shapes.

Yes, well, I might not have to worry
about it for too much longer.

Sorry, I don't understand.

Well, Evie, I am in my thirties.

And I've done jolly well to last this
long.

But my engagement with David's company
does finish at the end of this ballet.

And he's made it very clear that I won't
be needed again.

That's horrible.

No, not really.

And how will bright, new, young dancers
ever get a chance if crazy old things

like me keep hogging the limelight?

Would you become a choreographer like
David did?

No, I don't think that's for me.

Oh, yeah. Isabel, that sounds so
callous.

To be just discarded like that.

Do you know what you'll do next?

Try and find another job?

Dancing, I suppose, if I can.

V?

Excuse the chaos.

I'm really not here often enough to make
it nice.

Your coffee.

Um, coffee, please.

That's good, because I think I'm just
about out of tea.

Look, are you sure this is no trouble?

No. What you really mean is, are you
sure you can afford to give me a cup of

coffee?

It is a bit of a dump, isn't it?

But it is all I can afford.

I had no idea that dancers were so...
Well, I just thought it was all rather

glamorous.

Only on the stage, Evie.

Only on the stage.

With you, David?

Yes. I like the overtones of holiness in
the colour.

And it's still keeping it simple.

Oh, yes. The complexities in the
movement.

What are you doing here?

I thought I'd see if you had any
intentions of coming home tonight.

Good evening, David. Hi, Jack.

Jack, I'm so sorry. I didn't realise it
was so late.

Will you be much longer?

Well... I'd quite like to finish Simon's
costume before we call it a day.

I'll go upstairs and see Evie. Give me a
call when you're free. Jack, you can't.

She's gone to have supper with Isabel
Novaks.

Right.

Well, then, I'll wait here.

Right.

You see, if the movement's like this...
Jack, I really don't know how long we're

going to be.

Why don't you go on home and I'll get a
taxi when we finish?

As you wish.

I'll see you at home.

Yeah.

Good night, then.

Good night, Jack. Good night.

Well, thank you for allowing me to be
here. I really enjoyed it. Oh, me too.

Oh, and next time you let me pay, all
right?

All right.

I will.

Will you make the rehearsal tomorrow?

Oh, yes. I want to see how the new dress
looks.

All right. I'll see you then.

All right. Bye -bye.

Good night.

Jack, I'm sorry I'm home too late.

That's all right.

I've grown used to it. I know how very
important your work is to you.

Jack, don't be like that.

Like what?

Well, you're trying to be helpful.

I've grown used to our not spending our
days together, and now, of course, I

just have to get used to not spending
our evenings together. Oh, yes, and how

many evenings have I sat here on my own
while you've had to work?

Jack, I'm trying to design for a ballet
that may be very important to us.

The last thing I need when I get home is
your childish sarcasm.

The last thing you need?

Now, what about what I need, Bea? Where
did that come into it?

At every damned opportunity, Jack. It's
all you ever talk about.

Maybe that should tell you how important
it's become to me.

I'm sorry.

I still have to think about some
suggestion that David's made.

I'll say goodnight, then.

Morning. Good morning. Can I help you?

Yes, good morning. I'd like to see the
Mrs Elliot, if I may. I'm afraid they're

both out this morning.

Ah. I'm so sorry. You are Miss...? Alice
Burgoyne. Mrs.

Enchanted.

May I help you?

Oh, regrettably, no.

But if the Mrs.

Elliot are out, I can always see Wint,
the bookkeeper.

And who shall I say is here?

Ralph Soroyan. Very good.

Excuse me.

I understand you told Miss Beatrice that
there was some kind of financial

problem with the business.

I am her bookkeeper.

Yes. Well, she seemed very confused when
she came to see me. Perhaps you didn't

explain the situation fully.

I think I did.

Then it's perhaps I who was confused by
her explanation of the situation.

It really doesn't matter. I'm quite sure
if I look at the books, it will become

quite clear.

The accounts for this quarter and the
last, if you please.

I'm afraid I can't do that, Mr. Soroyan.

I beg your pardon?

I can't release any ledgers to you
without Miss Elliot's permission.

You're aware that I am a director of
this company and I have a right of

to them. I'm sure you do, Miss
Fitzgerald.

It's just that I'm afraid the king
himself wouldn't get a look at those

without Miss Elliot's say -so.

I couldn't take the responsibility.

Well, if you're so frightened of taking
the responsibility, I shall take it upon

myself. I don't... What are you hiding,
Wynt?

Nothing.

You may trust me or not, as you please.
Thankfully, I am no longer in your

employ.

The house of Elliot is now directly
under my control.

So you are still in my employ.

For the moment, you may tell Miss Elliot
that I shall return.

And we shall go through the books
together.

Good day.

I hardly dare ask if you're ready.

I'm ready.

Hello, Jack. Hello.

Before you go, Miss Elliot, could I have
a word, please? Is it important?

Mr Ralph Siroyan called to see you
today. Oh, I'm sorry, Joseph. It really

have to wait. I want to get away.

Yes, of course.

Thank you, Jack.

Yes, here. One minute.

It's David. Here.

Hello? What sort of changes?

Does that involve the costume?

No, it's all right. I shall be there
straight away.

Sorry, what did you say, David? I'm
that?

Yes.

Stevie?

Don't rush off. She can't help it. I can
see that.

This work is terribly important to me.
And how important is David Deborah to

her?

What?

What's going on, Evie?

Jack, there's nothing going on.

Tell her not to bother about that part.
I'm dining out. Tell her I'll see her at

home later.

Why on earth would I hope for you to be
asleep, Jack?

Save you the trouble of explanations, I
suppose.

Jack, there's nothing to explain.

You know what happened as well as I.

There are things to apologise for.

And yes, I'm sorry we didn't spend the
evening together, but there's nothing to

explain.

So, good evening had by all?

David had made some changes to the
ending of the ballet.

I worked out how to change the costumes
to fit, so, yes, in one way, we had a

good evening.

Is there anything else you want to tell
me, Bea?

I beg your pardon?

I wondered if there was anything else
you wanted to tell me about you and

What? I don't suppose you do want to
tell me. Jack, I don't want to tell you

because there's nothing to tell.

Listen, what am I supposed to think? You
can think what you like.

Nothing I can say will make the
slightest difference, so I shan't bother

anything.

Please understand.

Barman, a large whisky, if you please.

It's marvelous.

They think?

Well, they have only seen the first act.

The second act won't be so surprising.

What do you think, Jack?

I think it's very interesting.

Oh, excuse me. I must speak to Isabella.

What do you really think, Jack?

I'll get some drinks.

Well, it's horrible.

A confusing jumble of ill -expressed,
trivial ideas masquerading as a piece of

modern art.

Only the imaginative and aesthetically
pleasing costumes by the House of Elliot

redeems this valley from its pretentious
tedium.

That's all right. Your reputation
remains untarnished.

Jack, that's not important.

Poor David will be devastated.

It's obvious the critics didn't
understand a thing that was going on.

Very few of us do.

I must go and talk to him.

Would you drop me off at the rehearsal
room?

If that's what you want.

Hello, Jack. Hello, Amy.

Come in. I'm glad I called you before
you went down to the office.

I wanted to have a word.

What would that be?

No.

No, about Isabel Novak, actually.

Oh, yes?

Is what you were saying yesterday about
her needing something to do when she

leaves the company?

That's right, she does. What about it?

Well, I'm about to start on a film that
has some rather unusual sequences in it.

Dreams, that sort of thing.

I've been thinking of filming them as
some sort of dance.

It was all rather vague, but having seen
Isabel... Well, you know better than I

do. Do you think she'd be interested?

Interested? Jack should love to.

Really? Of course.

Here, let me give you her address.

Good.

You had a very wary look on your face
when you asked if I wanted to talk about

Bea. Did I?

Do you know what's going on between her
and David?

Only what I see when we're working.

And that's just work, isn't it?

The whole thing was wonderful.

But the Adagio was too slow.

The Adagio was waiting for you.

Oh.

Beatrice, thank you so much for coming.

Whether it was worth it or not, I really
couldn't have done it without you.

You're welcome.

I'm just so glad to see you're so
philosophical about those ghastly

Well, I'd have been very upset if they
hadn't reacted enough to be critical.

There'll be other ballets and other
fools to miss the point.

I hope you'll involve me next time as
well.

Oh, of course.

Thank you.

Thank you so much for coming.

I really appreciate it.

I don't know what to say.

Well, the things I'd want you for would
be mainly dance, or dance -orientated,

anyway. I'm sorely tempted.

Then give in to it.

And, of course, you'd be paid in real
money.

Doing something I enjoy and being paid
for it.

Oh, goodness, whatever next?

Yes. Yes, I'd love to. Good.

Who have you got to do the choreography?

Shall I ask David? No, no, I think you
and I can manage on our own.

You don't like David very much, do you?

Hardly no, ma 'am.

I suppose I do object to the very
obvious closeness between him and

Well, as long as you don't worry there's
anything else between them.

Is that what's concerning you?

Jack, David's not like that.

Like what?

Well, you know, he's not interested in
women.

You sure?

I was very embarrassed.

Well,

I suppose that makes two of us, then.

This is important, Miss Elliot.

Joseph, I have a million and one things
to do.

All right, what is it? I just thought
you might want to... Sorry,

am I interrupting something? No. It's
about this loan you've taken out with

Gillespie Siroyan. Sit down, Joseph.

I told you I wasn't happy with the
written agreement that was given to you,

telephoned them and asked for copies of
all other papers relating to it. And

then after Mr Siroyan came here the
other day... I'm sorry?

What do you mean, after Mr Siroyan came
here the other day?

I tried to tell you at the time. Good
morning.

I'm so glad to find you both here.

We have some urgent business to discuss.

Thank you, Joseph. That will be all.

Mr. Siroyan, how dare you just come
marching into my office?

There are times when business must take
priority over courtesy.

Not in the house of Elliot.

Yes, perhaps if courtesy and affection
hadn't played quite such a large part in

the way you run your business.

And what do you mean by that?

Well, until I've made a proper
examination of all your accounts, I

the full extent of the position.

But judging from the advice given to you
by your late godfather, and now finding

his protégé in charge of your books,
well, quite frankly, nothing's going to

surprise me.

Protégé? You mean Joseph?

You are aware that it was I who
terminated his employment with Gillespie

Ryan for dishonesty and improper
practice?

No?

No. I dare say that Desmond wouldn't
have mentioned that.

Well, no matter. The Joseph Wintz of
this world are easily replaced.

I shall have a real bookkeeper here
within the month.

I'm sorry, Mr. Teroyne, but you cannot
do that.

You cannot just walk in and dictate how
we should run our business.

Miss Elliot, at the moment, your
business exists only because my business

it to.

Now, my bank has invested heavily in the
house of Elliot, and it's my duty to

protect the investment as I see fit.

Do we understand each other?
