you didn't get back for the party.
I don't see where you get
your patience, Maida.
what she thinks of his rudeness.
I don't happen to be any other wife.
I'm Alec's wife, aren't I, darling?
Yes.
I thought you doctors
were supposed to be so diplomatic.
And here you stand by and do nothing
to smooth over
You're the diplomat, my dear,
better one than I could
ever hope to be.
That's more like it.
Excuse me, will you?
That wasn't very
nice of you, Alec.
I know it.
As for your not showing
up this afternoon...
Yes?
...all I want to say
is that I understand perfectly.
Understand what?
If you don't like parties,
there's no sense putting
yourself out to come to them.
I don't blame you in the least.
Even when we're alone,
you can do it.
Do what, dear? Make it look
as if I'd beaten you,
and make me feel I want to.
You won't have time to change,
we're dining early.
I'm going out. For dinner?
Yes.
But, Alec,
your father and mother and Ned.
One scene's enough, isn't it?
They might even find out the truth
about us.
You wouldn't want that
to happen, would you?
They wouldn't believe it, dear.
Yes. You've seen to that,
haven't you?
More coffee, Mr Walker?
No, thanks, Al. Just bring
me the cheque, will you?
Thanks.
Hello. Hello.
Surprised? Not very.
How did you know I was here?
I saw your car parked outside
as we were driving back from dinner.
I told you I had to see you.
Now that you've found me,
what about it?
Honestly, Alec,
you're so direct!
You're not exactly
oblique yourself.
Don't you like me at all?
I mean, not even the littlest bit?
I think you're fascinating.
You do?
I have to tell you, Suzanne.
I've tried to be decent about it,
but it's no use.
Why do you think
I can't eat. I can't sleep.
day after day, night after night.
I can't go on like this.
Oh, Alec, dear,
why weren't you like
this long ago?
It'll have to be
a clean, sharp break.
Break? Yes.
Of course, I'll have to give
Maida everything I have.
I doubt if Archie'll give you any alimony
under the circumstances. Alimony?
Of course, we have to
ignore the conventions and,
well, we've got to expect to
put up with certain penalties.
And it'll be worth it,
won't it, dear?
Well, of all the gall!
Oh, but, Suzanne, dear!
think you're attractive,
you want me to throw
my whole life away.
What kind of a person
do you think I am anyway?
An Easter bunny. What?
You call that love, huh?
Who are you to be so high
You and that thing you've got
