Eyes Wide Shut

Honey, have you seen my wallet?

Isn't it on the bedside table?

Now listen, we're running a little late.

I know.

How do I look?

Perfect.

Is my hair okay?

It's great.

You're not even looking at it.

It's beautiful.

You always look beautiful.

Did you give Roz the phone and pager numbers?

Yeah, I put it on the fridge. Let's go.

Coming.

All right.

I'm ready.

What's the babysitter's name?

Roz.

Okay, Roz, we're going now.

You look amazing, Mrs. Harford.

Thank you. Helena, are you ready for bed?

Yes, Mommy. Can I stay up and watch The Nutcracker?

- What time's it on? - 9:00.

- You can watch that. - Can I stay up until you get home?

- No, darling. - It'll be a little late for that.

The phone number is on the fridge...

and there's food in there, so help yourself.

We shouldn't be later than 1:00.

- I'll hold our cab to take you home. - Thanks, Dr. Harford.

- You be good, baby. - Good night, Daddy.

- Good night, sweetheart. - See you in the morning.

- Victor, Illona. - Bill, Alice.

- Merry Christmas. - Thank you for coming.

- Thanks so much for coming. - We wouldn't miss it for the world.

Alice, look at you. God, you're absolutely stunning!

I don't say that to all the women. Do I?

- Yes, he does. - He does?

That osteopath you sent me to, the guy that worked on my arm?

- You ought to see my serve now. - He's the top man in New York.

I could have told you that, looking at his bill.

Go inside, have a drink, enjoy the party.

I'll see you in a little bit. Thanks for coming.

Do you know anyone here?

Not a soul.

Why do you think Ziegler invites us to these things every year?

This is what you get for making house calls.

You see that guy at the piano?

I went to medical school with him.

Really?

He plays pretty good for a doctor.

He's not a doctor. He dropped out.

Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you're enjoying yourselves.

The band's gonna take a break. We'll be back in 10 minutes.

Thank you.

Let's go over and say hello.

I desperately need to go to the bathroom.

You go and say hello, and I'll meet you where? At the bar?

Good.

Nightingale.

Nick Nightingale!

Oh, my God! Bill.

Bill Harford! How the hell are you, buddy?

- How long has it been? - I don't know. 10 years?

And a couple.

- Do you have time for a drink? - Sure.

You haven't changed a bit.

Thanks, I think. So how you doing?

Not too bad, you know. Not too bad.

I see you've become a pianist.

Oh, yes. Well, my friends call me that.

How about you? You still in the doctor business?

You know what they say, "Once a doctor, always a doctor."

Yes, or in my case, "Never a doctor, never a doctor."

I never did understand why you walked away.

It's a nice feeling. I do it a lot.

Cheers.

Excuse me. Nick, I need you a minute.

Be right with you.

I gotta go do something. If I don't catch you later ...

I'll be down at the Village for two weeks at the Sonata Cafe.

- Stop by if you get a chance. - I'll be there.

- It's great seeing you. - Good seeing you too, man.

I think that's my glass.

Oh, I'm absolutely certain of it.

My name is Sandor Szavost. I'm Hungarian.

My name is Alice Harford.

I'm American.

Delighted to meet you, Alice.

Did you ever read the Latin poet Ovid on The Art of Love?

Didn't he wind up all by himself ...

crying his eyes out ...

in some place with a very bad climate?

But he also had a good time first.

A very good time.

Are you here with anyone tonight, Alice?

With my husband.

Oh, how sad.

But then I'm sure he's the sort of man who wouldn't mind if we danced.

What do you do, Alice?

Well, at the moment ...

I'm looking for a job.

I used to manage an art gallery in SoHo.

But it went broke.

What a shame.

I have some friends in the art game.

Perhaps I can be of some help.

Thank you.

Someone you know?

My ...

husband.

Don't you think one of the charms of marriage ...

is that it makes deception a necessity for both parties?

May I ask why a beautiful woman ...

who could have any man in this room, wants to be married?

Why wouldn't she?

Is it as bad as that?

As good as that.

Do you know Nuala Windsor?

No, and it's very lovely to meet you both.

How do you spell Nuala?

N-U-A-L-A.

You don't remember me, do you?

You were very kind to me once.

Only once? That sounds like a terrible oversight!

I was doing a photo session in Rockefeller Plaza ...

on a very windy day ...?

- And you got something in your eye. - Just about half of Fifth Avenue.

You were such a gentleman! You gave me your handkerchief ...

which was also clean.

Well, that is the kind of hero I can be sometimes.

You know why women used to get married, don't you?

Why don't you tell me?

It was the only way they could lose their virginity ...

and be free to do what they wanted with other men.

The ones they really wanted.

Fascinating.

Do you know what's so nice about doctors?

Usually a lot less than people imagine.

They always seem so ...

knowledgeable.

Oh, they are very knowledgeable ...

about all sorts of things.

But I bet they work too hard.

Just think of all they miss.

You're probably right.

Ladies, where exactly are we going?

Exactly?

Where the rainbow ends.

Where the rainbow ends?

Don't you wanna go where the rainbow ends?

Now that depends where that is.

Well, let's find out.

Excuse me, ladies. Sorry, Dr. Harford.

Could you come with me for a moment? Something for Mr. Ziegler.

Fine.

To be continued?

Yeah.

Bill, thanks for coming.

We had a little accident here.

What happened?

Well, she was ...

She was shooting up and she had a bad reaction.

What did she take?

A speedball or a snowball or whatever the hell they call it.

It's heroin and coke.

Heroin and coke?

Anything else?

We had a couple of drinks, some champagne. That was it.

How long has she been like this?

Maybe five minutes, six minutes, something like that.

What's her name?

Mandy. Mandy.

Mandy.

Mandy?

Can you hear me, Mandy?

Can you hear me? Move your head if you can hear me.

Move your head if you can hear me, Mandy. There you go.

You can hear me.

Can you open your eyes for me? Mandy, can you do that?

Let me see you open your eyes. There you go, come on.

Come on, look at me. Look at me.

Look at me. Look at me.

Look at me. Look at me, Mandy.

Good.

I love Victor's art collection, don't you?

Yes. It's wonderful.

Have you ever seen his sculpture gallery?

No. I haven't.

He has a wonderful collection of Renaissance bronzes.

Do you like the period?

I do.

I adore it.

The sculpture gallery is upstairs.

Would you like to see it?

I can show it to you.

We won't be gone long.

Maybe ...

not just ...

now.

That was really one hell of a scare you gave us, kiddo.
