Rings on Her Fingers Page #3

my name is John Wheeler.

Wheeler?? We do not know eachother?

The party last night, yes.

I have arrived this morning.

We are the Worghington,

mother and daughter. Haunted.

Wheeler

Is it a Wheeler from Bedford?

They were always on boats.

No. Finance, New York.

?Banks?

Funds and investments.

Oh it's pretty.

He will be very busy, will not he?

Not anymore.

?Retired?

Well, for a time.

If we stayed sitting,

looking for where we met...

we need to eat You accompany us?

Very nice but I'm going to

swim until that mooring...

to see the dimensions of the

boat that they sell to me.

Will you swim with a meter in your mouth?

Simple mathematics. Knowing

the height of the mast...

I'm going to bore you.

Not boring. It is wonderful.

How do you do it in your mind?

Yes, how do you do it?

Mathematics has been my

trade for so long...

which is already elementary.

It's a weird mix, Mr. Wheeler.

Something dry like mathematics and

something romantic like ships.

In truth they are inseparable.

Without maths you

could not navigate...

Do not even take out

"the boat dock".

Well, I want to get

to that mooring.

Why do not you go, dear?

There may be something that we like.

Yes, it would be a pleasure.

I want to observe this

matter of mathematics.

Beautiful...

Be careful, dear.

Do not try too hard.

Start soft

I will take care of it.

Warren Worthington, please.

Warren? I think we have exactly

what you were looking for.

He wants a yacht with

many beautiful candles.

A kind of romantic fool.

And another thing, do not try to

deceive him with the numbers.

He knows how to count.

I'm glad you came.

It gives a sense of security

to go with a sailor.

Captain Beasley can

have something we like.

There you are.

The "Sheherezade".

It seems to come out of the

One Thousand and One Nights.

Is not it wonderful, mother?

Do not you think so, Mr. Wheeler?

"Wonderful" is little to say.

?You see? And he knows about boats.

It does not suit us, it's a sailboat.

Let's look at it.

Look at it

I confuse the sexes

of ships and trains.

- Captain Beasley?

- I am and I will be.

We want to look at it, if possible.

Worthington, from New York.

And Mr. Wheeler.

Hi. They are welcome.

I should be better but I

have so much to do...

and with only one leg.

It makes you want to go to the sea...

to hunt whales or

to catch pirates.

For the time it takes, I

could buy the Queen Mary.

Well, it's done.

Here is the receipt,

Captain Wheeler.

Do not worry, I'll

take it to customs.

Thank you.

My check is 15,000 dollars.

That I put on the receipt.

I owe him 500 dollars.

I'm going to look for them and Mr.

Blanchard will confirm it.
