SYLVIE:
Viens, Jean-Louis, let us make a walk.
I have never seen a Rothschild before.
SYLVIE and JEAN-LOUIS start off, but not before the boy
squirts PETER with his pistol.
PETER (drying)
Clever fellow -- almost missed me.
REGGIE:
I'm afraid you're blocking my view.
PETER (moving)
Sorry. Which view would you like?
REGGIE:
The one you're blocking. This is the last
chance I have -- I'm flying back to Paris
this afternoon. What's your name?
PETER:
Peter Joshua.
REGGIE:
I'm Regina Lampert.
PETER:
Is there a Mr. Lampert?
REGGIE:
Yes.
PETER:
Good for you.
REGGIE:
No, it isn't. I'm getting a divorce.
PETER:
Please, not on my account.
REGGIE:
No, you see, I don't really love him.
PETER:
Well, you're honest, anyway.
REGGIE:
Yes, I am -- I'm compulsive about it --
dishonesty infuriates me. Like when you go
into a drugstore.
PETER:
I'm not sure I --
REGGIE:
Well, you go in and you ask for some
toothpaste -- the small size -- and the man brings
you the large size. You tell him you wanted
the small size but he says the large size is
the small size. I always thought the large
size was the largest size, but he says that
the family size, the economy size and the
giant size are all larger than the large size
-- that the large size is the smallest size
there is.
PETER:
Oh. I guess.
REGGIE:
Is there a Mrs. Joshua?
PETER:
Yes, but we're divorced.
REGGIE:
That wasn't a proposal -- I was just curious.
PETER:
Is your husband with you?
REGGIE:
Oh, Charles is hardly ever with me. First it
was separate rooms -- now we're trying it
with cities. What do people call you -- Pete?
PETER:
Mr. Joshua. (turning to go) Well, I've
enjoyed talking with you.
REGGIE:
Now you're angry.
PETER:
No, I'm not -- I've got some packing to do. I'm
also going back to Paris today.
REGGIE:
Oh. Well, wasn't it Shakespeare who said:
"When strangers do meet they should erelong
see one another again"?
PETER:
Shakespeare never said that.
REGGIE:
How do you know?
PETER:
It's terrible -- you just made it up.
REGGIE:
Well, the idea's right, anyway. Are you
going to call me?
PETER:
Are you in the book?
REGGIE:
Charles is.
PETER:
Is there only one Charles Lampert?
