00:15Did you think we'd forget about it?
00:16I can't give you what I haven't got.
00:18Find it!
00:19But I can't.
00:21Get the money.
00:22I'll be back to collect it tomorrow.
00:35At this rate, I should love more clothes than the Princess of Wales.
00:38But if Mrs. Van Ryn insists...
00:40Who am I to object?
00:42It's good of you to keep me company.
00:44I don't mind.
00:45At least I think it's ridiculous that you're not allowed to walk out on your own.
00:48But it gives me a chance to get some air.
00:50Now for the sleeves.
00:52By the way, someone from home is coming to the city.
00:55I got a letter this morning.
00:57A friend from Pennsylvania.
00:58Not exactly.
00:59The lawyer who managed my father's affairs when he died.
01:02Is it about business?
01:03It may be.
01:05He doesn't really say.
01:06Will you let him visit 61st Street?
01:08Why?
01:09Would that be very shocking?
01:11It's not that.
01:11Although Mrs. Van Ryn may think so.
01:13But I might want to ask his advice.
01:16Really?
01:17Any colored lawyer would find his way back to my father and he can't know about it.
01:21I'm not sure Mr. Rakes would do it.
01:23But I can always ask.
01:25And he studied law in Pennsylvania.
01:27I presume so.
01:29Is this for your writing?
01:31No, it's a personal matter.
01:32Raise your arms please.
01:33How is the writing going?
01:35Are you getting much done?
01:36I think so.
01:37I sent out query letters.
01:39To which publications?
01:40No.
01:41I'll tell you once I hear back from them.
01:43I don't want to risk bad luck.
01:44Well, I hope Mr. Rakes can be of help.
01:47I also hope he hasn't turned up a pile of daddy's debts.
01:51What can you mean?
01:52Of course I haven't called on Mrs. Russell.
01:54Marion, I hope you don't encourage her in this.
01:57I don't.
01:58What do you know about the Russell's daughter, Glenys?
02:00Is she out?
02:01Do people like that bring their daughters out?
02:03I thought they just sold them to the highest bidder.
02:05She's called Gladys, not Glenys, and I don't think she is out yet, but she's very nice.
02:08How do you know?
02:09I met her with Aurora Fane.
02:11Aurora skates so close to the edge.
02:13Do you know this Gladys well enough to ask her to luncheon?
02:16Not really.
02:17I should think not.
02:18Agnes, you can't have anything against an innocent young girl.
02:21I'm opposed to her tribe.
02:30Are you quite well, Mrs. Bower?
02:34Why wouldn't I be?
02:36You seem upset.
02:36Oh, I've been chopping onions.
02:41Miss Scott, have you been working with Mrs. Van Ruy?
02:44Yes.
02:45I suppose you think that makes her a sort of secretary.
02:47She is a secretary, and not a sort of anything,
02:49which puts her above you in the pecking order, Miss Armstrong.
02:52Mr. Oscar's good-looking, isn't he?
02:54I saw him when he left.
02:55Mr. Oscar's interested in one thing only, and you haven't got it.
02:58What's that?
02:58Money.
02:59Don't bash her down.
03:00She only said he was good-looking.
03:02That's how he is.
03:03I wonder if they'll try to set him up with Miss Marion.
03:05He wants an heiress, the richest he can find,
03:07and Miss Marion hasn't a penny to her name.
03:09If you finish demolishing the characters of every member of this family,
03:12John and I will serve luncheon.
03:13Are you ready, Mrs. Bower?
03:14I am.
03:21Who is this Mr. Rakes?
03:23The lawyer who settled Henry's estate.
03:25Do we have to receive him?
03:26He waved his...
