In Our Time Page #3

Yes, I like it

very much, too.

Oh, do you?

Yes.

There's a performance

tonight. We are taking her.

You should see it, too,

while you are here.

Well, I'm afraid we won't

have very much time.

Are you leaving

that soon?

Yes, in just

a few days.

Oh, too bad. You see,

i thought, perhaps--

Bromley:
I don't see why

you call those miniatures.

Oh, ducky, did you find

anything interesting?

Well, uh...

Bromley:

oh, of course.

Good morning, Sir.

A thousand apologies.

I didn't know

you were waiting.

How can I serve you

today, sir?

I am taking

this watch.

Ah, a priceless piece!

But for you,

i shall make a price.

Charge it to my account

and send it to my mother.

She's at my uncle's house.

A privilege

to serve you, Sir.

Well...

Hope you enjoy

your visit.

Thank you.

Excuse me.

Good day.

Good day.

Opus 11?

Yes.

[Door opens]

Opus 11?

Bromley:

who is he?

Well, I don't know,

Mrs. Bromley.

You see, he

just came--

A most distinguished patron.

Count Stephen

Orvid--

Nephew of Count

Pavel Orvid--

One of our wealthiest

aristocrats.

This young nobleman

is heir

To 20,000 acres

in pomerania,

Vast tracts of lumber land

in the bialowieza forest--

Any antiques?

Huh?

The ballet.

Oh, Mrs. Bromley,

We can't leave

the country of Chopin

Without once going

to the ballet.

Whose country

did you say this is?

[Watch playing]

[People talking]

Good evening.

Woman:
good evening.

And my favorite ballet.

It reminds me of my

first season in Warsaw.

Oh. Pavel,

how times have changed.

But you haven't, Zofya,

except you become lovelier.

Zofya:
oh...

Man:

oh, Count Orvid!

Good evening.

Good evening,

Jarsky.

I was hoping

to see you here.

Politics-- Even

at the ballet?

I am sorry, Count,

but unfortunately,

Affairs in Europe will

not wait our pleasure.

Quite right. Oh!

Baron Jarsky, Count

Stephen Orvid--My s-

I almost said "my son,"

but that's a wish

And not a fact.

My nephew.

It's a privilege

to know you, Count.

Baron.

Your uncle and I are

having difficulties

Trying to keep

Poland out of a war

That would take away

our fine young men.

If we have to fight,

we are ready.

Hmm, a nephew to be proud of, Count.

Yes, indeed.

Stephen, your mother

and sister are waiting.

I'll join you later.

Baron?

Count.

Excuse me.

[Orchestra tuning instruments]

Your program, mama.

Oh, thank you,

darling.

You see

we are not late,

Thanks to my new watch.

Oh, I love it, Stephen.

It plays the same tune

as my heart,

only it keeps

better time.

I don't see why we had

to rush through dinner.

I have a heartburn.

Oh, uh, perhaps

if I ate a chocolate.

Jenny, did you hear me?

Oh, yes. I'm so sorry, Mrs. Bromley.
