But you don't have to Ms Puznowski me.
No, you can call me PJ. Or Jammies.
That's my rodeo handle.
Or Philomena, which is my real name.
Well, thank you, PJ.
And you may call me Lionel.
Let's hope doing business
on a first-name basis
will be conducive to plain speaking
and clear understanding.
Amen to that, Lionel.
Well, then, let's get to it.
I want 12 million
for this here picture.
That's 6,000 tons
if I've clone my math right.
And maybe you'd like to throw in
a nice four-by-four to haul it off in,
with an auto tranny, a CD deck
and graduated tint on the windshields.
Please and thank you.
Well, that's marvellous,
and tell me, PJ,
what makes you think
this painting is worth 12 million?
Well, Lionel, first off, it's oil.
Ain't it, Harry?
Indeed, the medium is oil,
and its provenance is promising.
But I would like to take it to your
country house to compare it to its mate.
- Arrives Tuesday.
You can run it up to the house.
We'll take a look at it
at the gala on Wednesday.
- You've never been to the house.
- No, sir, no. I...
I have an annual party
up at the estate.
That sounds nice. That's another thing
I got going in my favour.
You've got this other Haystacks,
and the man ain't churning 'em out,
what with his being dead an' all.
So, looks like if you want the set,
I got you by the short and curlies.
I don't think it's a situation
of one party trying to subdue the other.
Nonsense. It's a pleasure doing business
with someone who knows her position
and is able to clearly set it out.
Unfortunately I have
another appointment at 11 o'clock.
But I believe this is worth pursuing.
Let's see if we mightn't find
some common ground.
Why, thank you. A gentleman.
Thank you.
I'm booked the rest of the day
and I have a business dinner.
But a thought occurs to me. Perhaps
you might be my dinner companion.
We'd have time to talk and you might
even help me with a business matter.
Thank you. That would be delightful.
Don't bother yourself, Deane.
I'm sure PJ and I can handle things.
To plain speaking.
- Yes, sir.
- Going down.
- Sure.
Pick you up at...?
- The Savoy.
- Why not?
As I drove the two of them
to the most expensive hotel in London,
I was rather taken by Ms Puznowski.
Her invigorating lack of decorum
would have enraptured my younger self.
Still, for the successful execution
of the plan,
Mr Deane would require a firm hand
to bring her into line.
I won't deny
I doubted the strength of his wrists.
I don't think
I need to remind you, do I,
of the consequences
of room service?
- Uh-huh.
