| [00:03.951] | CARL-MAGNUS: |
| [00:03.952] | She wouldn't... |
| [00:05.237] | Therefore they didn't... |
| [00:07.360] | So then it wasn't— |
| [00:09.225] | Not unless it— |
| [00:10.605] | Would he? |
| [00:12.203] | She doesn't... |
| [00:13.528] | God knows she needn't... |
| [00:15.617] | Therefore it's not |
| [00:20.289] | He'd never... |
| [00:21.631] | Therefore they haven't... |
| [00:23.620] | Which makes the question absolutely— |
| [00:26.753] | Could he? |
| [00:28.404] | She daren't... |
| [00:29.731] | Therefore I mustn't... |
| [00:31.783] | What utter rot! |
| [00:33.472] | |
| [00:36.572] | Fidelity is more than mere display |
| [00:40.707] | It's what a man expects from life |
| [00:44.704] | Fidelity like mine to Desiree |
| [00:49.003] | And Charlotte, my devoted wife |
| [00:53.271] | |
| [00:58.971] | The papers... |
| [01:00.207] | He mentioned papers, |
| [01:02.141] | Some legal papers, |
| [01:03.801] | Which I didn't see there |
| [01:06.958] | Where were they, |
| [01:08.354] | The goddamn papers |
| [01:10.333] | She had to sign? |
| [01:15.158] | What nonsense... |
| [01:16.423] | He brought her papers, |
| [01:18.434] | They were important, |
| [01:20.104] | So he had to be there |
| [01:23.306] | I'll kill him! |
| [01:24.827] | Why should I bother? |
| [01:26.885] | The woman's mine! |
| [01:31.607] | Besides, no matter what one might infer, |
| [01:35.702] | One must have faith to some degree |
| [01:39.754] | The least that I can do is trust in her |
| [01:43.825] | The way that Charlotte trusts in me |
| [01:48.825] | |
| [01:54.002] | Capable, pliable... |
| [01:57.813] | Women, women... |
| [02:01.472] | Undemanding and reliable, |
| [02:05.037] | Knowing their place |
| [02:08.405] | Insufferable, yes, but gentle, |
| [02:12.029] | Their weaknesses are incidental |
| [02:15.524] | A functional but ornamental |
| [02:21.127] | Race |
| [02:23.009] | Durable, sensible... |
| [02:26.844] | Women, women... |
| [02:30.304] | Very nearly indispensable |
| [02:34.003] | Creatures of grace |
| [02:37.440] | God knows the foolishness about them, |
| [02:41.229] | But if one had to live without them, |
| [02:44.827] | The world would surely be a poorer, |
| [02:48.408] | If purer, |
| [02:50.556] | Place |
| [02:54.355] | The hip-bath... |
| [02:55.559] | About that hip-bath... |
| [02:57.308] | How can you slip and trip into a hip-bath? |
| [03:01.839] | The papers... |
| [03:02.955] | Where were the papers? |
| [03:04.978] | Of course, he might have taken back the papers... |
| [03:09.403] | She wouldn't... |
| [03:10.537] | Therefore they didn't |
| [03:12.420] | The woman's mine! |
