00:00Mr. Arden, have you received any communication from your first wife, uh, Ellen Wagstaff-Arden?
00:14What?
00:15I mean, any letters, telephone calls, telegrams?
00:18No.
00:19Just as I thought.
00:20I used to come to see your mommy, too.
00:26She drowned.
00:27Do you ever think about her?
00:30Once a year, I do.
00:31Once a year, I do, too.
00:32Only once a year?
00:33We take flowers to church on her birthday with Danny.
00:34You put those flowers under that window?
00:35Which window?
00:36Doesn't she have a stained glass window there or something?
00:37Oh, that one.
00:38I think so.
00:39I forgot.
00:40Daddy said we're going to get a new mommy.
00:41He does, really?
00:42Bianca!
00:43Do you?
00:44Yes.
00:45Do you like Bianca?
00:59Can you swim?
01:08Timmy, come here.
01:11Why?
01:12I want to hug you.
01:13Me, too!
01:14You, too!
01:15Both of you!
01:16You know what you two kids are!
01:19What?
01:20You're my two sweethearts.
01:23My two best sweethearts in the whole world!
01:29Well, here we are!
01:32Home, sweet home!
01:37You enjoy your swim?
01:38I always have to take a moonlight swim on the island.
01:41With Adam?
01:42Adam?
01:43Did you always take a moonlight swim on the island with Adam? Eve?
01:47Oh.
01:48Adam and Eve.
01:50I was afraid you'd misunderstand about that.
01:52Oh, what's to misunderstand?
01:54A man's wife spends five years on an island with a strange man.
01:58Would you like it any better if I knew it?
01:59And it slips her mind?
02:01Well, I was going to tell you, but I know how upset you get about little things.
02:05Little things?
02:06I have a...
02:08I have a client who's in great distress.
02:11You see, his wife has been unfaithful to him.
02:16For how long?
02:18What's that got to do with it?
02:20Well, some people look at these things one way and some people look at another.
02:26Five years.
02:28She must have been a pretty smooth operator.
02:30The circumstances were highly unusual.
02:33The wife should be forgiven.
02:36Dr. Schillek, the pattern is perfectly clear to me now.
02:40It's practically a textbook case.
02:42There's only one little thing that bothers me.
02:45Oh?
02:46Now, I could understand it if I repelled him, but...
02:49his not being able to...
02:52That would make it more understandable, yes.
02:54And I happen to know that Nicholas is mad about me.
02:57I see.
02:58That's why it's so maddening, this...
03:01this shyness.
03:06Mr. Burkett!
03:13Mr. Burkett!
03:15Hey, right over here, boy!
03:21Mr. Burkett, pick up the phone, please!
03:35You
