- How much higher do I have to climb?
- One more flight. The last door on top.
A nice place you've brought me to,
I must say!
I didn't expect your son
to be living in a palace,
but you didn't tell me
he was living in a place like this.
We didn't know.
He should've written us the truth.
Roderick.
It's awful finding you in a place like this.
Tony.
Roderick, this is our friend, Mr Lushin.
My son.
How do you do, sir?
- Mr Lushin's a very important man!
- I'm honoured.
- He holds two government positions!
- Two? I'm doubly honoured!
I can't tell you how kind
and helpful he's been to us.
After Antonia lost her position,
we were in terrible trouble.
- Mother, please don't let's
talk about it now. - What trouble?
She wouldn't let me write.
The husband of the woman she worked for
turned out to be the most horrible person.
I had to leave because I wasn't obliging.
Let's not go over that again, Mother.
- Tell him about the revolver.
- What revolver?
She had to keep it under her pillow at night
And his wife found out
and lied about me after I left.
You can imagine how easy it was
to find a position after that.
It was lucky Mr Lushin came along
to help us.
- Shall we tell your brother now?
- Why not? He'll have to know sometime.
I know this will be a great surprise
to you, Roderick,
but Mr Lushin and your sister
are engaged to be married.
- Show him your ring, Antonia.
- Tony engaged?
Well, sir, is that all you have to say?
- I want to understand this clearly.
- What's there to understand?
by asking me to become his wife.
And I've accepted because I love him.
Madam, let me compliment you
on your son's manners.
Please don't be offended.
Her happiness means everything to him.
Roderick, I think you ought to know that
Mr Lushin's marrying your sister
without asking for any dowry at all.
I may say that I have fairly advanced ideas
on the subject of marriage.
- Indeed.
- I prefer a girl like your sister,
who has experienced poverty.
I believe that a wife should always
look up to her husband as a benefactor.
And here's the best news of all, Roderick.
Mr Lushin has agreed to employ you
as his private secretary.
I'm afraid you're stating things
a little too definitely.
I didn't absolutely agree
to employ your son.
But, Mr Lushin, you did. You promised me.
It was quite definite.
- No, I did not promise.
- How can you say that? You did!
For the sake of
clarifying our future relationship,
please understand that I prefer
not to be contradicted.
Excuse me for coming to your room
like this.
I just had to thank you for the money
you gave us.
