She's rather infirm, you know? But I'd love to.

Oh, thank you, thank you.

You make me very happy. Yeah.

- Snice girl. Get two tickets for the concierto.

- (woman) For the contesto?

- No. Concert.

- Por la corrida?

- No. Please! Concert!

- Consomm?

- No. Not consomm. Concert!

- Corrida?

(sings opera)

Two tickets for the concert

Well, how do I look?

- Like a hungry leopard.

- (doorbell)

Wait a minute. You're sure to need this.

Oh, Aunt Binnie.

- Seorita Crawford?

- Yes. Come in, Your Excellency.

Excellency? Thank you.

I'd like you to meet my aunt, Miss Crawford.

- Your aunt? But so young! So beautiful! No?

- No.

Yes. It is rather unusual, isn't it?

I was 31 my last birthday, Your Excellency.

Your Excellency... Please, that is too formal.

Now that we know each other so well,

just call me Tito.

I must say, there isn't anything

very formal about that, is there, Tito?

- Welcome to Buenos Aires.

- Oh!

Flowers. How thoughtful of you.

Oh, it is nothing at all. It establishes goodwill.

I find that I get much further that way.

- Are you sure you're going to a concert?

- If the seorita wishes.

If your heart isn't too set on it,

I'd prefer to see the nightlife.

Encantado. Absolutely.

I know every place in town.

Oh fine. Sorry to leave you, dear.

I shall regret your charming absence,

but fortunately I'll have the scintillating

presence of the seorita to soften the pain.

- She better keep her guard up.

- There is no cause for worry.

I never what you call...

put on the pressure. No, no, no.

I shall go only as far as seorita wishes.

Well, the seorita went 6,000 miles last week.

Oh! Seorita.

Seorita.

(doorbell)

Seorita Crawford. Oh.

Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Dr Padilla.

I called earlier from the embassy.

What? Why, you can't be.

You just left here with my niece.

Oh, but you are mistaken.

I've never been in this house all evening.

- Then who was he?

- Seorita, we are talking in riddles.

Perhaps we should start over again.

I am your brother's friend. Arturo Padilla.

I, that's me, came here this evening

to take your sniece to the concert.

I brought these flowers for her.

Orchids! Oh, you must be the ambassador.

The other one brought dahlias.

You mean there's an impostor?

What does he look like?

Oh, he's tall, dark and handsome,

and he says the nicest things.

Oh, it's diabolical!

The man is a perfect double for me.

- Come, we must apprehend him.

- I'll get my wrap.

Florecer un querer
