In Name Only Page #5

Oh, but it has.

You see, you and I

were getting to be good friends

and I didn't want that spoiled.

There's nothing to spoil.

We had a lot of fun, that's all.

That was yesterday and that's over.

It's not over. How can it be over?

I'm afraid I'm going to be

terribly busy,

I'm trying to get some sketches

off to New York.

Would you mind? I'm terribly rushed.

You don't want to see me again,

is that it?

Oh, of course not.

We'll probably run into each other,

people usually do in the country.

But I don't think there should

be any more picnics.

Well, Mr Walker,

how was everything tonight?

No complaints, Tony.

No complaints.

Here are all your checks

for this last week, Mr Walker.

50.25 altogether. Thanks, Al.

Here, keep the change.

Thank you, sir.

Glad to see you come in

so regular, Mr Walker.

You know, I like to have

your kind of folks.

You might drop the word

to your friends.

Tony, when my friends

start coming here, I stop.

Goodnight. Goodnight.

KNOCK ON DOOR:

Laura! Answer the door, will you?

How do you do? Why, Mrs Walker.

Won't you come in? Thank you.

It's Mrs Walker, Julie.

Good morning. Just a little thought

for your kindness of last week.

It's a bit late, I'm afraid.

Thank you, they're lovely!

Won't you sit down?

You'll have to excuse

the way we look,

I'm afraid we're a little late

getting at things this morning.

Let me take those.

Well, how nicely you've fixed the

house up. It used to be deadly.

We like it very much.

You must have thought

me awfully inconsiderate

not having called before to welcome

you to the neighbourhood.

You're very kind.

Are you staying all summer?

Oh, another month or so, and then

I've got to get back to New York

and get down to some

real serious work. Oh.

Sketches?

May I look? Oh, sure.

Oh. Oh, they're stunning. How I envy

someone who can really do something.

Really, these are beautiful!

I'm so glad you like them.

Oh, and by the way, I'm giving

a garden party next Thursday.

I'd like very much to have you come.

Your sister, too.

Thank you, but between my work

and the house here,

I don't have much time.

I'm sure that you could manage it.

Really, I'm afraid that...

You'll make her come, won't you?

I'll send a car for you. About four?

We're going to be very good friends.

I know we are.

Well, goodbye, Mrs Morgan.

Goodbye. Thank you.

Oh, hello. Hello.

Ellen, this is Mrs Walker.

How do you do, Mrs Walker?

Oh, what a cunning child.

Yours? Yes.

I must have misunderstood you.

I thought your name was MISS Eden.

It is. I used it in my work

before I was married,

and after my husband died,

I took it again. Oh.

Well, goodbye again. Goodbye.
