And you don't set fire to people?
That was when I was 13.
Father, I don't really want it.
It doesn't matter.
Now listen, Milly.
If suddenly I made a lot of money,
how would you like to go to Switzerland?
To a finishing school?
It isn't very good riding country.
Awfully expensive.
- Couldn't we instead...
- What?
Join the country club?
Tax a-free.
What are you doing, Father?
Do you remember last year at the circus,
that clown?
The one who fell off the tightrope
into the bucket of whitewash?
We should all be clowns, Milly.
- Are you still unhappy about Mother?
- Sometimes.
- But, of course, I pray for her.
- That she comes back?
Oh, no, not that. We don't need her.
- No, that she'll be a good Catholic again.
- I'm not a Catholic.
That's different. You're invincibly ignorant.
I expect I am.
I'm not insulting you, Father.
It's only theology.
What else do you pray?
Well, of course, lately...
I've been concentrating on the horse.
- Can't you stay a little longer?
- There are things I've got to arrange.
- About the horse.
- Father!
It's wonderful how you always get
what you pray for.
You go to sleep.
Can't be too careful.
I've brought you back your umbrella.
Sorry I'm late.
- You've moved the Lamb.
- I was just looking around.
You seem fond of Lamb's
Tales from Shakespeare.
- One copy's for you.
- But I don't read Lamb.
It's not meant for reading.
You never heard of a book code?
- As a matter of fact, no.
- I keep one copy.
All you do when you communicate with me,
is to indicate the page and the line...
where you begin the coding.
You understand?
Well, I'll explain in a minute.
It's rather complicated and not very secure.
- You got an electric kettle?
- Yes. Why?
For opening letters, of course.
You'll want those.
- I've brought you some ink.
- I have plenty of ink.
Secret ink.
For communicating with your agents.
- Well, I haven't any agents.
- Your first job is to recruit some.
If you run short of ink,
you can always use bird droppings.
Your code number is 59200l5.
I, of course, am 59200.
You will number your sub-agents 59200l5l1
and so on.
Do you get the idea?
I don't see how I can
possibly be of any use to you.
- You refuse to serve your country?
- I didn't say that. It's just that...
Well, the vacuum cleaners
take up a lot of time.
It's an excellent cover.
- Your profession has quite a natural air.
- It is natural.
Now, if you don't mind,
we'll get down to our Lamb.
This code is damned hard to break
without knowing the name of the book.
Why did you choose Lamb?
It's the only book I could find here
