Man in the Attic Page #3
I don't blame you.
Tell you what.
See the show and
come home in a cab.
Oh, bless you,
Mr. Harley, sir.
- Now run along and fetch us a carriage, will you?
- Yes, Mr. Harley, sir.
Come along, Llly darllng, or you'll be late.
I'm coming, Auntie.
Uncle Wllllam, you look
very handsome and elegant.
You look very ravishing yourself.
Oh, I'm so excited I'm
afrald I'm golng to burst.
You must contain yourself at all costs.
Especially in the theater,
where people are helplessly packed together.
Oh, do be quiet.
Be sure you've got everything.
Hello there, Mr. Slade.
Are you coming to the theater, Mr. Slade?
- I'm afraid not.
- Llly, I don't belleve you've met Mr. Slade, have you?
My nlece, Llly Bonner.
Good evening, Mr. Slade.
I'm sorry you can't
come to the opening.
- I have work I must do.
- You work at night?
Yes, quite often.
Sometimes all night.
- It's quieter at night.
- I like the night too.
It's the only time
I feel really alive.
It's at night that
the interesting things happen.
What kind of work
do you do at night, Mr. Slade?
I doubt if you'd be interested.
Do you just work?
Sometimes I walk close by the river.
The river is like liquid night
flowing peacefully out to infinity.
I must not delay you.
I wish you success tonight.
Thank you.
Good night.
Good nlght.
He's so odd, isn't he?
I believe he's shy and lonely
and all wrapped up in his Chinese puzzles.
- What Chinese puzzles?
- Oh, science and pathology or whatever you said he did.
I can't help feeling
there's something odd about him.
He skulks, he prowls.
That's the something about him.
And if he's lonely, he has only to pop
out of his shell and speak to someone.
I think he's interesting.
Evening Standard. Echo.
Evening standard. Echo.
Four thousand police
on duty in Whitechapel.
Evening Standard. Echo.
Four thousand pollce
on duty In Whitechapel.
Oh, thank you, governor.
Evening Standard. Echo.
Dressing Room 1.
Hello, Annie.
Flowers for Miss Bonner.
Please.
May I see Miss Bonner?
- Miss Bonner is dressing.
- Who Is It, Lelah?
It's Annie Rowley-
"La Belle Anne," remember?
It's all rlght, Lelah.
I know who Annle Rowley Is. Come In.
Oh! It looks very nice.
Thank you for
letting me come in.
I always like to come
and say hello to my old dressing room.
It's perfectly all right, Annie. Help yourself
to champagne, courtesy of the management.
- I've got to hurry.
- Yes, I remember.
- Did you know royalty was coming tonight?
- Yes, the prince of Wales.
Oh, I had it all once-
royalty, champagne, flowers.
and how excited I was.
I looked
in this very mirror.
I wish I knew then
what I know now.
