Come on then. Check to him.

Man: Go, go, go!

Safe!

That's it. Come on.

Pitch it in.

Man: Run, run, run!

Fair ball!

Fair ball? That ball was foul, you blind son of a bitch!

It was that side of the tree!

By 5 yards that ball was foul!

What the hell do we have a tree for?

Why do we have a tree

if the ball falls 5 yards that side,

and you still call it fair?

Give me my ball.

Give me my kid... huh?

If you've finished trampling on him, that is.

Oh, right.

Thank you.

Come on.

There you go, pal.

You all right?

Can I have my ball? What?

You're holding my ball.

Oh, your ball.

Thanks. Any time.

What about your ball?

Oh.

Oh. Share it?

Why not?

Man: Where to?

Where to?

80 grovenor street, please.

Lady's going to 80 grovenor street.

I'll be going on.

That is exactly 60 pence with the tip.

Forget it.

It's the right amount. I take this trip every day.

Not necessary.

How kind. I'll buy a house in the country.

Terrible weather.

Oh, filthy.

If you live in London, you have to expect it.

Do you live in London?

- I do. - Me too.

Really? Five years.

Good lord. Practically a native.

Last habitable city in the world, London; Wouldn't you say?

Yes, I would.

You can do anything you like. Nobody bothers you.

No.

My name is Steven blackburn.

Vickie allessio.

Oh, sounds Italian.

It's my husband's name.

Were those your kids in the park?

Yes.

Nice-looking little boys.

Thank you, but one of those little boys is a little girl.

Oh, I see.

I suppose your husband likes to sleep late on Sundays.

Yes, he does.

I suppose you like to go home and cook him a nice breakfast.

No.

Don't you like to cook?

I love to cook. Doesn't he like to eat?

He loves to eat.

I-I don't understand.

We have different kitchens... His is in Milan.

That's a shame.

Please don't cry. He found another cook.

Oh.

Thank you very much.

Mrs. allessio?

You have a very good memory.

What about tea? “When?

Tomorrow?

Fine.

The Churchill.

Oh, great. See you then.

What time?

Um, 4:00.

You sure it won't break up your day?

Don't cross-examine me in the rain.

I'll be there wet, but I'll be there.

Steven:

Just a second, Terry. Good afternoon.

How about lunch tomorrow? We haven't had tea yet.

If I can change one appointment,

I can be clear.

I know nothing about you, except you play baseball.

And from the way you played,

you obviously don't do that for a living.

I'm in insurance, I'm married,

I have two kids, and I'm a Leo.

What about lunch tomorrow???

I think we ought to see how tea goes.

See how tea goes.

I'll talk to you later, Derek.

Who's Derek?

Derek is my male secretary.

Tea for two, please.

And what do you do?

I'm in the rag trade.

Ah, buy or sell?

I steal.

Steal?

I steal designs from dior, cardin, givenchy,

and I send them to my boss Mr. Sam fingleman of New York,

who makes them up in very cheap materials.

Sounds like very creative work.

Thank you.

Where'd you learn that, Paris?

No, Italy. I took a course in Milan.

Enter Mr. allessio, also in the rag trade.

No, he specialized in charm. It comes easy to Italians.

We were married for several years

and had two children and three cars,

and he kept the cars.

What about child support?

He won't send me anything for the kids

if I don't send him something for the cars.

What about your wife?

Good-looking, bright, articulate.

She can start a fire with two pieces of wood.

We've been married for 11 years,

and not once in all that time

have I ever been unfaithful to her in the same city.

Where is she now?

Out of town. What about lunch?

What do you have in mind? Just lunch.

Where?

I know a cute little continental restaurant.

Italian?

Yeah, continental.

It's discreet, out of the way.

It's sort of a hotel.

It's Avery nice hotel.

It's got good food, great wine...

It's... l mean... it's... it's...

Oh, what the hell? A girl has to eat.

It's difficult to steal in France

because they expect you to steal.

Waiter.

I'm boring you.

Not at all.

Why are you asking for the check?

I would've liked coffee.

Of course.

It's just that, um, I've got this friend,

and he's got this little, um...

Little place upstairs.

I thought we'd have some coffee

and a little, uh...

Cognac?

You've been there before.

I'm wildly guessing.

Well, shall we?

Why not?

Why pay for something when you can get it for free?

Hmm?

I didn't mean that to sound the way it sounded.

Please forget I ever said it.

Certainly.

Where do I go?

This way.

Thank you.

Thank you, sir.

Steven: How long have you been divorced?

About six months.

You had two kids in the first three years?

I had two kids in the first two years.

Was he catholic?

No, he wasn't catholic, and I wasn't careless.

I just wanted those kids, but I don't know,
