Last Holiday Page #2

Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk.

You are not on my side yet, are you?

Not specially. No.

You will be,

because it's lovely stuff.

Savile Row.

Cost a fortune now.

And I've been looking out for somebody

it would fit, and you are him.

That's why I called you in.

Try one of the jackets on.

Just try it. That's all.

All right.

But I'm only doing it to amuse you.

Mm-hmm.

Wonderful.

Beautiful.

Perfect.

Don't take my word for it.

Have a look at yourself.

Over there.

See what I mean?

Best tailoring in London -

in the world.

Wear two or three suits like this

and a dinner jacket...

and you're going to

look like somebody.

- You'll begin to live.

- A bit late.

But I see what you mean.

- Let's have a look at the rest of that stuff.

- Certainly.

Thirty-five, five, less three,

Three, four, five, six,

Sixty-five pounds, 16 shillings.

Uh, do you know what I'll do for you?

I'll throw this other case in.

And that's because I've taken

a fancy to you and enjoyed myself.

Well, what do you say?

- Sixty-five, eh?

- I believe I'm balmy, but all right.

Sixty-five pounds,

and I take this lot and both cases.

That's it. Now...

believe it or not, but I have done you

a big favor this afternoon...

and I want you to promise

to do me a little favor.

- Will you?

- I don't know. I might.

- Come on. Come on.

- All right. I will.

Take that mustache off.

Doesn't go with this class of stuff.

Make a nice all-round job of it.

Just to please me,

have a neat little hair trim...

and get that mustache off.

- Will it give me a stiff upper lip?

- Hmm, for an hour or two.

I need it for longer than that.

My dear sir,

I'm going to tell you something.

You've come into something big.

And how do I know?

It's the look in your eye.

A special look.

And what does it tell me?

It tells you

I've come into something big.

Quite so. But how big is it?

I don't know. Nobody knows.

Or if they do know,

they've never told us properly.

And I'm leaving for it in the morning.

The 15th?

The same suite that you had before?

Well, I'll speak to

Mr. Gambini about it, madam...

but I don't think it's possible

to reduce our terms.

Yes, very busy indeed.

Good-bye, madam.

- Yes, Mrs. Rockingham?

- I had a message from Mr. Gambini...

asking me if I'd call at his office.

Oh, yes. Uh -Well, I'm afraid you'll have to

wait a few minutes, Mrs. Rockingham.

Mr. Gambini has Mr. Prescott with him.

- A light?

- Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Good afternoon.

I have a room booked here.

My name's Bird.

Oh, yes, Mr. Bird.

A single room, wasn't it?

Will you sign here, please?

Just your name and address will do.

I haven't any address, I'm afraid.
