02:40Who is it? There's a visitor to see you, miss. Oh, hold on just a moment.
02:44Okay, you can come in now.
02:48Ah, Jane, my dear.
02:52This is the 99th time I've seen your performance.
02:5699th? You only need once a day, then perhaps you'll give up.
03:00I have a little surprise for you. On going through some old family heirlooms,
03:04I found this antique bracelet. Oh, isn't that lovely?
03:08You like it, my dear? Why, yes, it's marvellous.
03:12I don't think I've ever seen a prettier one. Then take it, my dear. It's yours.
03:16It would give me great pleasure if you would accept it as a
03:20small token of my admiration for you.
03:24No, no, really, I couldn't. Oh, please.
03:28It will look so nice on you. Well, I should be almost afraid to wear it.
03:32Nonsense, my dear. I don't know what to say.
03:36Say nothing, my dear. Just wear it always.
03:40And if it makes you think of me sometimes, well,
03:44I shall be amply rewarded.
03:48Pardon me, madam.
03:52Will you please accept this? An old family heirloom
03:56and may it bring you luck.
04:00Goodbye, madam.
04:04Remind me. A back scratcher.
04:14Good evening. Good evening, sir.
04:18Good afternoon, Miss Jane. What name, sir? Whitey. Tom Whitey.
04:22If you just wait a minute, sir, I'll find out if Miss Jane can see you.
04:26I think she'll see me all right. I'm an old friend of hers. Oh, in that case, sir, you might as well go down.
04:30She's in No. 1, Star Dressing Room, sir. Oh, thank you.
04:34Come in.
04:38Why, Tom, of all people.
04:42Excuse me. Let me see. Could it be the King of Clare?
04:46Heavens, have I changed as much as all that?
04:50They're all the same old Jane, eh? Success hasn't gone to your head.
04:54Perhaps it can't find the head. But tell me, kind sir, she said, to what do I owe the honour of this visit?
04:58Well, I'm living down at Brighton at the moment and I see that you're advertised to judge a beauty contest
05:02at the Tudor's Gloucester show tomorrow night. Yes, in a weak moment, I agree to go along.
05:06Fine, I shall be there. Now, what about supper together before the show?
05:10I'm a fast worker. Oh, no, only with an old friend like you.
05:14Anyhow, I won't keep you now because I know you've lots and lots of things to do. I'll meet your train in tomorrow morning.
05:18What time will it be? About nine o'clock. I'll have the car and I'll run you straight up.
05:40Hi, Cap.
05:44Ah, you're on time for a change.
05:48Have you got any? Yes, here it is.
05:52Just the sort of thing for a man who goes in for clothes shaves.
05:56OK. Here's your dough. Thanks.
06:00Well, I won't give you a receipt for this. We'll just call it a gentleman's agreement, shall we?
06:04Don't get too smart, Cap. The boss is kicking. Why?
06:08Well, he's been kind of small lately and, you know, he don't deal in chips. Oh, I'm quite aware of that.
06:12But I've got an idea of the big stuff that'll be over here soon, including the famous Bulawayo Diamond.
06:16The Bulawayo Diamond cut? I know, I know, Cap, but I thought that was safety tucked away on the continent.
06:20Well, so it is. But I've got an idea it'll be over here soon.
06:24Oh, suits me.
06:28The London train ought to be in soon. What's your interest in it, blonde or brunette?
06:32That's no concern of yours. All right, Cap, keep your hair on. I won't spoil your fun.
06:36Well, I'll see you later on. All right, and watch yourself. OK.
06:40Bye-bye.
