-To the locker room.

We also have a swimming pool,

which you can use when you want.

Miss Tanner. I have something to tell you.

-Squawk, squawk. Polly parrot.

-Who said that? Shut up.

That's enough of these little

games for the moment.

I want to introduce Suzy Bannion, our new student.

You'll find several fellow Americans

among these girls--Miriam, for one.

-Hello.

-Hi.

-Your locker's over there.

You'll find everything in there except shoes.

For today, you can borrow shoes

from someone who has two pairs.

Hurry up, everybody. I'll be waiting

for all of you in the red room.

Come with me.

Mata Hari is going to file her report.

My name is Olga, and you're my tenant.

Oh, hi. Nice to meet you.

They tell me you have to give me $50 a week.

-Yeah.

-In advance.

Well, don't worry. If you think I'm not--Oh--

Don't get hot under the collar.

That's how people are here.

Uh, can anybody lend me a pair of shoes?

-Yes. Me.

-Oh, thank you.

If you want to buy them, I can make

you a nice price. Fifteen marks.

Oh, no, thanks. I already have some in my suitcase.

I just need a pair for today.

But if you'd rather not--

No. Okay. Go ahead. Take them.

-But, uh, Give them back, hmm?

-Of course.

Oh, excuse me.

I'm sorry.

Oh, it's okay. It doesn't matter.

Did they shake you up with all

that talk about money?

Well, I'm not exactly used to it.

Same with me at first.

Then I found out it's a

charming habit around here.

I once read that names...

Which begin With the letter "S"...

Are the names of snakes.

Next year, after I finish the course,

I've got an offer from the

state school of ballet in Geneva.

What about you?

Well, I'll go back to yhe states,

but I'm not exactly sure what I'll do.

Hey, thanks.

My room is really pretty.

-Like it?

-Uh-huh.

That makes me happy. I bet we'll do

nicely together. I think you're sweet.

Even if I have the name of a snake?

I was just kidding.

Don't tell me you're as touchy as Sara.

No.

Hello?

Oh, hi! No, no, no.

You did the right thing.

-Hi.

-Hi.

Oh, you didn't have to bring these over here.

I could've picked them up myself tomorrow.

I thought you might be needing them.

Yes, but it really wasn't necessary.

-Anyway, thanks a lot.

-Oh, no. It's nothing.

-Ciao.

-Ciao.

-Don't you want to stay for a while?

-No, thanks. I can't.

I live at the school, so I've got to

be back for supper in half an hour.

-I have to.

-Just for a minute?

No, no, really. I have to be going.

They get very upset if you
