00:07:42,900 He was ashamed of me when he found 95 00:07:43,060 --> 00:07:46,110 I didn't cut the kind of figure he wanted 96 00:07:46,940 --> 00:07:50,090 ashamed of himself for having been taken in. 97 00:07:51,500 --> 00:07:55,610 I wasn't at all the article he bargained for. 98 00:08:04,100 --> 00:08:06,950 He can't see the point of me 99 00:08:10,100 --> 00:08:13,960 but whenever he's made up his mind there isn't a point 100 00:08:13,990 --> 00:08:15,380 and he's begun to feel comfortable 101 00:08:15,410 --> 00:08:17,390 he gets a surprise 102 00:08:17,900 --> 00:08:21,350 some man, or even woman, he respects 103 00:08:21,390 --> 00:08:24,320 takes a fancy to me and he suddenly sees that 104 00:08:24,350 --> 00:08:26,390 there's a whole world of things 105 00:08:26,420 --> 00:08:28,430 we understand and he doesn't. 106 00:08:31,290 --> 00:08:32,880 He was upset when I went away. 107 00:08:35,140 --> 00:08:36,710 He'll be delighted to have me back. 108 00:08:40,180 --> 00:08:43,830 I was faithful to him until this last thing came along. 109 00:08:49,100 --> 00:08:51,450 When, before dinner 110 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,230 she went to get ready 111 00:08:53,270 --> 00:08:54,960 I came with her 112 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,560 uninvited 113 00:08:56,590 --> 00:08:57,620 unopposed 114 00:08:57,660 --> 00:08:58,310 expected. 115 00:08:58,940 --> 00:09:02,310 I recalled the courtships of the past 116 00:09:02,340 --> 00:09:03,710 ten dead years. 117 00:09:03,750 --> 00:09:06,660 How, knotting my tie before setting out 118 00:09:06,690 --> 00:09:09,110 putting the gardenia in my buttonhole 119 00:09:09,150 --> 00:09:11,630 I would plan an evening of seduction 120 00:09:11,660 --> 00:09:14,060 and think at such and such a time 121 00:09:14,090 --> 00:09:15,640 at such and such an opportunity 122 00:09:15,670 --> 00:09:17,180 I shall cross the start line 123 00:09:17,210 --> 00:09:19,050 and open my attack for better 124 00:09:19,090 --> 00:09:19,820 or worse. 125 00:09:19,850 --> 00:09:23,030 'this phase of battle has gone on long enough", I would think 126 00:09:23,060 --> 00:09:24,590 "a decision must be reached". 127 00:09:25,420 --> 00:09:30,090 With Julia there were no phases. 128 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,220 No start line. 129 00:09:32,420 --> 00:09:35,660 No tactic at all. 130 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:56,670 I'll see you at dinner. 131 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,020 There's nothing like a good upbringing. 132 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,040 Do you know, last year, when I thought 133 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:13,810 I was going to have a child, I'd decided 134 00:10:13,850 --> 00:10:15,550 to have it brought up a Catholic. 135 00:10:16,980 --> 00:10:19,070 I hadn't thought about religion before 136 00:10:19,550 --> 00:10:20,620 I haven't since 137 00:10:21,340 --> 00:10:24,860 but just at that time, when I was waiting for the birth 138 00:10:26,220 --> 00:10:26,930 I thought 139 00:10:27,300 --> 00:10:29,590 'that's the one thing I can give her'". 140 00:10:31,100 --> 00:10:33,780 "It doesn't seem to have done me much good 141 00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:35,570 but my child shall have it'. 142 00:10:36,420 --> 00:10:38,980 It was odd 143 00:10:39,020 --> 00:10:42,520 wanting to give something one had lost oneself. 144 00:10:46,420 --> 00:10:49,730 Then in the end, I couldn't even give her that. 145 00:10:52,460 --> 00:10:54,200 I couldn't even give her life. 146 00:10:58,380 --> 00:11:00,040 I never saw her. 147 00:11:00,860 --> 00:11:03,380 I was too ill to know what was going on 148 00:11:03,820 --> 00:11:05,860 and afterwards, for a long time 149 00:11:06,100 --> 00:11:07,520 until now 150 00:11:08,540 --> 00:11:10,250 I didn't want to speak about her. 151 00:11:18,780 --> 00:11:20,290 She was a daughter 152 00:11:20,330 --> 00:11:22,580 so Rex didn't mind so much about her being dead. 153 00:11:23,540 --> 00:11:25,230 We’d argued endlessly 154 00:11:25,420 --> 00:11:27,070 about whether I should have a child in the first place. 155 00:11:27,100 --> 00:11:28,850 At first, I wanted one. 156 00:11:31,700 --> 00:11:34,740 After a year or so I discovered that I'd have to have an operation 157 00:11:34,780 --> 00:11:35,750 to make it possible. 158 00:11:36,420 --> 00:11:39,440 By that time Rex and I were out of love. 159 00:11:42,700 --> 00:11:44,900 But he still wanted an heir. 160 00:11:52,180 --> 00:11:53,880 It's late. 161 00:11:55,780 --> 00:11:57,770 Perhaps we’d better go to bed. 162 00:11:59,380 --> 00:12:02,510 I have been punished a little for marrying Rex. 163 00:12:04,580 --> 00:12:07,460 I can't get all that sort of thing out of my mind, quite. 164 00:12:07,620 --> 00:12:10,800 Death, Judgment, Heaven, Hell 165 00:12:11,020 --> 00:12:13,700 Nanny Hawkins and the catechism. 166 00:12:16,740 --> 00:12:20,170 It becomes part of oneself if they give it to one early enough. 167 00:12:21,420 --> 00:12:24,410 And yet I wanted my child to have it. 168 00:12:28,140 --> 00:12:31,920 Now I suppose I shall be punished for what I've just done. 169 00:12:37,260 --> 00:12:40,530 Perhaps this is why you and I are here together like this. 170 00:12:48,580 --> 00:12:49,960 Part of a plan. 171 00:12:57,620 --> 00:12:59,970 No, Charles.
