By "suitable" you mean rich?
Yes, as far as marriage is concerned ...
You see, as far as marriage is ...
As far as marriage is concerned,
I do have prospects.
I even have skills, to the extent that
I'm not physically disabled.
No.
I'm reasonably well-mannered.
And I can engage in
with an urbanity born of disinterest.
As for character ...
that is something I usually
require of servants ...
- We are talking about character.
- Yes, character.
That is something I usually
require of servants ...
in the form of a brief letter
written by someone like myself ...
to the effect that
does not have the ingenuity to steal.
Well, you can't ask for better
credentials for marriage ...
or a better return on your investment.
What is my collateral
in the event that you fail?
Collateral?
My wardrobe and furnishings.
Oh my God, what would I ...?
Yes, go on.
My collection of first editions.
- My paintings and sculptures.
- Oh, well.
- And my ...
- What?
- No.
- No, what?
Well ... that's it.
No, no. You said no. You said no.
What? No, what?
Alright. My Ferrari 275 GTB 4 ...
which retails at $15,900
That's at least $500,000
worth of collateral.
I'm asking for a $50,000 loan.
- Six weeks?
- Six weeks.
Well, I may be a sentimental old fool ...
but in memory of our long, long years
that I spent as your guardian ...
I'll do it.
Thank you, uncle.
- On one condition.
- What's that?
Should you fail to repay
me in six weeks ...
I am entitled to ten times
the amount I'll lend you.
Ten times the amount?
That's ten times 50,000.
Yes, that's right.
That's ... it's everything ... I ... own.
Of course you could always go to
a bank and ask for a personal loan.
A bank?
Oh God, if I could be a fly
on the wall that day.
Those are my terms. Take them
or leave them as you choose.
- But that's usury.
- Mh-hm.
- I'll take it.
- Good.
I'll have my attorney
draw up the documents tonight.
We should be finished by tonight,
don't you think?
Yes. Thank you, uncle.
Call me Uncle Harry...
After all, we're in business
together now, Henry.
Thank you, Uncle Harry.
In that case, you may call me Mr Graham.
You know, Henry, I have never thought
of you as terribly interested in women.
It comes as rather a shock to me, too.
- Are there any here?
- Huh?
I mean ... unattached ones?
Yes, yes, there's Sharon Hart,
over there next to Felix.
Does she live with her family?
No, no, as far as I know,
Sharon has no close family.
Her husband, Robert Hart,
was a cattle baron, I think.
Really?
Oh, Sharon, I'd like you
to meet Henry Graham.
