Amar Akbar & Tony Page #5

-An actress?

Wow.

-Would I have seen you in anything?

-Oh, I doubt it. Im just starting out.

-Okay.

-I also teach, to pay the bills.

I thought about acting, actually,

you know, with my looks.

But I figured theres no money in it,

is there, unless you really make it.

Well, doesnt that apply to everything?

Nah. Property.

Theres good money in property.

Here we are.

If you like, I can get

a good price for you on this place.

With a bit of imagination it could really

be something. What do you think?

No.

So it wasnt your kind of place, huh?

Youre very observant.

Yeah, well, I notice these things.

Its part of my job.

So, are you acting in anything

at the moment?

I am. Im in a play.

Yeah? I love plays.

What, like Shakespeare and all that?

Hes the greatest playwright in the world.

Yeah, thats what they say,

but Ive got a theory about that.

Why doesnt that surprise me?

Could tell you over

a cup of coffee sometime.

-Oh, I have a boyfriend.

-Why doesnt that surprise me?

Do you always hit on the women

that you take out on viewings?

Really? You think Im hitting on you?

Oh. Oh, youre not?

No chance! Youre not even my type.

Okay, so the coffee was like--

-That was general courtesy.

-Oh, no. Yeah, I forgot.

Estate agents are famous

for their, um... courtesy.

Oh!

So, whats the theory?

-How about I tell you over dinner?

-I told you, I have a boyfriend.

-So? Does that mean you dont eat?

-Not with random men.

Hey, look, listen.

Dont take the dinner invite

the wrong way, all right?

I would love to see you act. I mean it.

So let us know if youre in anything.

Im doing a Chekhov play

at the Grove Theater next month, so...

youre welcome to come to that.

Ill be there.

I love Tchaikovsky!

We have a 90-percent success rate.

I have been in the business for 20 years,

and Ive been happily married

for 30 years!

My children, all five,

all happily married!

In my family no divorces,

all by the grace of the Almighty.

-What age are you?

-Uh, 26.

Nearly 27.

-Are you sure youre ready to settle down?

-Oh, yeah, yeah.

What is your profession?

-Uh...

-What is your career?

Work. Work. What kind of work you do?

Right, yeah. Sorry. IT. Computers.

Tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk.

-You want to marry an Indian girl. Why?

-Uh, I-I grew up round here.

I love Indian women, you know?

You know, I-Im not racist.

Hmm.

What kind of wife are you looking for?
