"I have something to tell you." "Edouard, give the lady a chair." "Your husband is not coming back tonight Madame." "Did he telephone?" "I waited in the restaurant." "He was arrested an hour ago." "The police came for him." "Nowadays they're very quick to make arrests." "There is talk of a Bolshevist plot." "It's ridiculous." "He tried to leave a letter for you, but they wouldn't let him." "It's very unpleasant for everyone." "Obviously it's a mistake." "Obviously." "Nobody likes to be mixed up in these things." "They arrest everyone except the criminals." "Perhaps it really is a mistake." "All these people get into trouble sooner or later." "My sister-in-law has a dry cleaner's in the Rue Dauphine." "I could ask her to put them on sale in her window." "Otherwise I couldn't buy them." "In any case, I can't offer you very much." "Take this one!" "No one would buy a dress like this." "Except a woman who's always out having a good time!" "My sister-in-law knows women of that sort." "Why must it be a woman like that?" "It's not a sensible dress." "It's a fantasy!" "It's for women who hang around cabarets... and American bars!" "I'll give you 250 francs." "For the lot?" "It's a good price!" "If you can't come at least telephone... so we can make some other arrangement!" "Madame can't do all the work!" "I called on Monday but no one answered." "And on Tuesday." "We were here all day Tuesday." "You never telephoned." "If that's the way it is, I'll leave at the end of the month." "No!" "I'll leave now!" "Should I go on?" "Show us something else." "Can you sing?" "Do you know "PARS"?" "That's enough." "Call next week." "I may have something for you." "What's biting him?" "Just a loud-mouth who thinks he's Queen Victoria." "How are you?" "You've changed." "This is Theo, an art photographer." "Are you still at the Hotel de l'Univers?" "I'm with friends." "Sit down." "I can't, I must meet someone." "Another time." "She's in a hell of a hurry!" "She's a bit strange." "I want to see her tomorrow at the studio." "Tell her anything you like, but make her come." "You want to work?" "Yes, but I have no work permit." "You don't need one, it's for friends." "Theo will give you 500 francs if you'll pose for him." "is it legal?" "Of course." "Otherwise I wouldn't ask you." "He's expecting you at 3 tomorrow." "You'll come?" "James, caress her breast." "Muriel, kneel on the sofa and whip Adriana." "Hold your chest out." "More style, everybody." "Put some grace in it!" "James, what's the matter?" "Imagine the scene." "You've just come home from the ball." "You'll all be paid later, don't worry." "Concentrate." "You're all artists, aren't you?" "That's better James." "Adriana, encourage him a little." "Muriel, hold the whip higher." "Perfect." "Don't move." "Are you Marya?" "Get undressed." "Hurry up!" "I'll pay you when we finish." "Liar!" "We've had enough of your promises!" "Don't threaten me!" "Where is my costume?" "Let go!" "We're wasting time." "Back to work, now." "Where's the new girl?" "Well, are we planning suicide tonight?" "Any message for me?" "No letters?" "No one telephoned?" "We don't see much of Monsieur these days." "He came on Thursday." "I must've missed him." "I went to the hospital." "Isn't it a nice day to go and visit the animals, madame?" "Yes!" "You ought to get out more." "It'd change your mood." "He'll spend it in two days and then stay in bed for two weeks!" "Well, lock him in his studio!" "Tie him to his chair..." "I want him to work!" "Pierre, this is my wife." "I'm very pleased to meet you." "He took these photographs." "Quite impressive, aren't they?" "People are not interested nowadays in such enlargements." "It's due to the decline of the family" "Mademoiselle Chardin, a friend." "There are many ways to earn money." "A friend of mine makes soap." "What scent is that?" "'Chypre'?" "It's Guerlain's 'Heure Bleue'." "He also makes beauty aids." "Very profitable." "He works at home and has no overheads." "His wife helps him." "He sells to all the big stores in Paris." "His biggest expense is the containers." "Of course, once you get settled..." "Yes, that's the problem." "Paris is the loveliest city in the world!" "You get on my nerves." "I thought of Argentina." "There are opportunities there, I hear." "There are big ranches there with horses, cattle..." "Ah, horses." "You could get other jobs... ..as an accountant, for instance." "is there a barber nearby?" "I'll do it. I cut his hair when he came out." "Don't worry." "I used to work in a hairdresser's." "But she'll soon have to pack and get out." "Well, go on!" "He must leave Paris at once." "And then the police come!" "People are rotten!" "It's nothing... friends must help one another."
