0:00:02 > 0:00:10This programme contains very strong language and scenes of a sexual nature

0:00:10 > 0:00:13(MAN'S VOICE) 'I was eating a tomato at teatime a few weeks ago

0:00:13 > 0:00:16'and I suddenly realised that Mommy is not dead at all,

0:00:16 > 0:00:18'just very, very mysterious.'

0:00:22 > 0:00:25'Papa spoke languages, climbed mountains.'

0:00:25 > 0:00:27'He was an adventurer.'

0:00:29 > 0:00:33'But Mommy was such a gifted person socially.'

0:00:33 > 0:00:38'She was a master of the understatement, an adventuress.'

0:00:44 > 0:00:49'He was cold and dark and she was warm and light.'

0:00:53 > 0:00:55'And I was "Little Tony".'

0:00:55 > 0:00:58Bye. Your mommy loves you.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01'I was the steam when hot meets cold.'

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Midge? Well, hello.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09The reason that I called, darling, is that Aschwin,

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Prince Aschwin Lippe,

0:01:11 > 0:01:13his brother is Prince Bernhard,

0:01:13 > 0:01:17well, Aschwin thought it would be lovely to meet at the Stork Club.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21He so wants to know you and Joost and asked if I could...

0:01:21 > 0:01:25Well, of course. Shall we say... 10.30?

0:01:25 > 0:01:28Is that too Continental?

0:01:29 > 0:01:32(LAUGHS)

0:01:33 > 0:01:37Be as catty as you want but Tony can hear every word you're saying.

0:01:37 > 0:01:41Can you imagine the world he's growing up into?

0:01:41 > 0:01:44Brooks and I will see you tonight.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49Brooks...

0:01:49 > 0:01:51..darling.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57I gather that you're making commitments for me.

0:01:59 > 0:02:03Sans permission, sans consultation.

0:02:06 > 0:02:10Prince Aschwin de Lippe, please.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13You may say Barbara Baekeland is calling.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Don't get difficult, not tonight, darling.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19Please, forgive the intrusion and the damnably short notice

0:02:19 > 0:02:22but we are having supper with Midge and Joost van den Heuvel

0:02:22 > 0:02:26and they would so like the pleasure of your company.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28They'll be delighted.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30As will I.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33As will Brooks.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37Thank you, darling.

0:02:37 > 0:02:41'People say now that I must have hated them because of what...

0:02:41 > 0:02:43'..transpired...'

0:02:44 > 0:02:47We won't be back too late, I promise.

0:02:47 > 0:02:51'..but everything that happened, happened because of love.'

0:02:52 > 0:02:54Do I...

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Do I look like a monkey to you?

0:02:58 > 0:03:02Then, why on Earth should I get dressed up in a fucking monkey suit

0:03:01 > 0:03:06- just to eat?- You don't have to wear your tux. And no need to be vulgar.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09- In front of the B-O-Y? - Just wear your uniform.

0:03:09 > 0:03:13- I will not.- You look so handsome, so dashing, in your uniform.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15The war is over, had you not heard?

0:03:15 > 0:03:18You have a right. You won the war.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21I mean, you volunteered so you have a right to wear your uniform.

0:03:22 > 0:03:26Your father looked so handsome, so dashing.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27So dashing...

0:03:29 > 0:03:33Is the little paragon coming or do you plan on leaving him here alone?

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Nini will be here at 9.00.

0:03:35 > 0:03:39In that case, I'm glad that I shall be dining out.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46(BABY MURMURS)

0:03:48 > 0:03:50Tone... Tony, Tony...

0:03:50 > 0:03:53Mother, do you think we should call him "Antony"?

0:03:53 > 0:03:55"Antony" will be his full name,

0:03:55 > 0:03:57his formal name, his name to the world.

0:03:57 > 0:04:02And "Tony" will be his name as a child... and among intimates.

0:04:02 > 0:04:08When I refer to him, when I am asked if I have a photograph, do I say...?

0:04:08 > 0:04:10You say "This is Tony".

0:04:10 > 0:04:14And they will say, "What an angel!"

0:04:14 > 0:04:17Oh, yes... An angel.

0:04:17 > 0:04:22What an angel. What an angel you are.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25- We may be out late. - "Shall".

0:04:26 > 0:04:29Oh, yes... Your mommy loves you.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37Barbara.

0:04:38 > 0:04:42Good night, Tony, you are in good hands.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Enjoy the Stork Club.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47And you may stay out as late as you wish.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50Fuck...

0:04:58 > 0:04:59(BALLROOM MUSIC)

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Thank you.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06Good evening.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10So we were coming downtown...

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Mr and Mrs Baekeland. Right this way, ma'am.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17(MAN) She's gorgeous.

0:05:28 > 0:05:29Hello.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Wonderful to see you.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33How do you do?

0:05:37 > 0:05:40- I'm Barbara. - Simone.- How do you do?

0:05:42 > 0:05:47Why, it was with Dieter that Brooks went on his great adventure in Peru,

0:05:47 > 0:05:49in the Villa...?

0:05:49 > 0:05:53Darling, you know I'm not at my best with geography.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Brooks, help me. Villa...?

0:05:57 > 0:06:01Darling, don't press. Maybe your husband don't feel like at dinner.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04Brooks, please, if you don't feel like performing...

0:06:04 > 0:06:06- Vilcabamba. - Ah.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09Dieter and I we went to the Vilcabamba in Peru.

0:06:09 > 0:06:13So tell us, man, what was your "little adventure"?

0:06:13 > 0:06:15It was nothing.

0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Well, I lie. It was something. - (ALL CHUCKLE)

0:06:19 > 0:06:23- (LAUGHS)- I was intrigued by a 400-year-old mystery -

0:06:23 > 0:06:25what became of Manco Inca.

0:06:25 > 0:06:29- I wanted to find the ruins of the lost city.- This is actually true.

0:06:29 > 0:06:34- Give him a dirt road and he'll go up it.- (ALL LAUGH)- That's very good.

0:06:48 > 0:06:51- Would you, Simone? - Oh, I don't know.

0:06:51 > 0:06:56- Your husband asked you a question. - This seems... unfair.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59This seems... tedious.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02- Hmm... But would you? - Yes, would you?

0:07:02 > 0:07:07Would I eat a pound of human flesh for 10 million?

0:07:07 > 0:07:09No, I would not.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14I have eaten horse flesh, you know?

0:07:14 > 0:07:18There is a difference between eating the cheval and eating the chevalier.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22Brooks, for 10 million would you sleep with Simone?

0:07:24 > 0:07:28- For 10 million would you - ? - Don't, Barbara. Please...

0:07:28 > 0:07:30..don't be tedious.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34Would you go home with the first person you met

0:07:34 > 0:07:37- going through a nightclub door? - Yes, I would.

0:07:39 > 0:07:42So... shall we get on with our drinks?

0:07:42 > 0:07:46Brooks, Barbara, have you ever been to the Engadin?

0:07:46 > 0:07:49Oh, I was practically born in Gstaad!

0:07:49 > 0:07:52She practically loves the ski instructors.

0:07:52 > 0:07:54(LAUGHS)

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Thank you for coming this evening.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08Bye.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13- Barbara.- You said you'd go home with the first person you met

0:08:13 > 0:08:18- going through a door...- No... - So I thought I might go home

0:08:18 > 0:08:21with the first person... Hello!

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Hello, I'm awfully thirsty. Would you buy me a drink?

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Aschwin... Simone...

0:08:26 > 0:08:29- Barbara. - Brooks...

0:08:31 > 0:08:34Lovely to see you all.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38(LAUGHS)

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Nini.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02- Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. - Quite all right.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07- I must have... - You fell asleep. Quite natural.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10It's late. It got late, you fell asleep.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15- I trust your evening was...? - Oh, we had a fine time.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18I can hold down the fort.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21- Where's Barbara? - She's returning separately.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24- May I get your coat? - I'll just go.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26- And was the Prince there? - Excuse me?

0:09:26 > 0:09:30- The Prince. The Prince of Amsterdam. - Ah.- Was he there?

0:09:30 > 0:09:34I think you're thinking of Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands.

0:09:34 > 0:09:38He was Count Lippe-Biesterfeld, of course, before he married Juliana.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41The man with whom we dined Aschwin Lippe

0:09:41 > 0:09:43is just Aschwin Lippe - younger brother.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46- A prince in title but not in any way...- Oh...

0:09:46 > 0:09:48- Because Barbara said... - "Barbara said"(!)

0:09:57 > 0:09:59Decent man nonetheless.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01I see.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04Good man.

0:10:04 > 0:10:05(CAR ENGINE)

0:10:05 > 0:10:07(CAR DOOR OPENS / CLOSES)

0:10:11 > 0:10:13(FOOTSTEPS)

0:10:31 > 0:10:32(BABY COUGHS)

0:10:48 > 0:10:51Oh, yes. Oh, yes...

0:10:51 > 0:10:53Hey, kid...

0:10:53 > 0:10:55Oh, what a life.

0:10:55 > 0:10:59Thirsty? Hmm? Thirsty boy?

0:10:59 > 0:11:02Tony a thirsty boy?

0:11:02 > 0:11:09'Papa used to say "For 2 the court fee and 10 for a wedding band,

0:11:08 > 0:11:13I made your mommy into Mrs Brooks Baekeland"...'

0:11:13 > 0:11:15S'il vous plait!

0:11:15 > 0:11:19'..and myself for the next 30 years into "Barbara's husband".'

0:11:51 > 0:11:55Oh! You are an angel.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58- Where's Papa? - He went to visit Duran.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01What shall we do today?

0:12:01 > 0:12:03Ah... Well...

0:12:03 > 0:12:10Tonight we're going to L'Hippo with Marcel and his wife Teeny.

0:12:09 > 0:12:14- Remember them?- (SPEAKS FRENCH) - En Anglais, s'il vous plait.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17- Doesn't sound like much fun for a kid.- You don't have to come.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19- But when you leave me alone... - Tony.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22I feel no bigger than a lima bean.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25Oh... You won't be alone. You'll be with Clothilde.

0:12:25 > 0:12:29Maybe since I'll be with boring Clothilde we can balance it out

0:12:29 > 0:12:31with something more fun during the day?

0:12:31 > 0:12:33Ah... I see where this is going.

0:12:33 > 0:12:37- Your mother needs time to paint. - I'd like to go on the Ferris wheel.

0:12:37 > 0:12:41- And for lunch I'd like some ice cream.- Ah!

0:12:41 > 0:12:44- But you had ice cream for breakfast. - (CHUCKLES)

0:12:48 > 0:12:52- Please don't tell Papa. - I won't. It will be our secret.

0:12:52 > 0:12:56- As will the aspirins you're going to fetch from...- The bathroom

0:12:56 > 0:12:58next to the sink.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02Your mother has a shocking hangover.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07Mommy...

0:13:08 > 0:13:10I shall cure you.

0:13:21 > 0:13:22- Ha! - Oh!

0:13:37 > 0:13:39OK! OK, OK.

0:13:39 > 0:13:44- I concede, I resign. - Well, sir, I'm pretty expert.

0:13:43 > 0:13:47So there's no embarrassment in losing if that's a concern.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53- Do you love me? - Of course.

0:13:53 > 0:13:57Will you still love me when my hair is gray and my tits are sagging?

0:13:57 > 0:13:59Well, of course.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04- Do you remember the dog? - What dog?

0:14:04 > 0:14:08- Which dog? - The one we had in Italy.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Giotto.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13I remember when Giotto died.

0:14:13 > 0:14:16- He was old.- No, he wasn't. - In dog years.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20- We still have his collar. - I know.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23- Somewhere... - I know where.

0:14:23 > 0:14:27Leo was famous. Not like you're famous of course.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30Well, I'm not...

0:14:29 > 0:14:32For heaven's sake. You won the Premio Nadal.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36You know Picasso, you know Camus, you know Malraux, you know Dali.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Pilar knows them. I just write.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41What I'm saying, Carlos, is that Leo's fame, like yours,

0:14:41 > 0:14:45was a function of achievement, it came from what he did.

0:14:45 > 0:14:49So Leo's stroke of genius was the notion that the formaldehyde

0:14:49 > 0:14:51might stabilize the phenol, give it strength.

0:14:51 > 0:14:56But they never mixed. Leo thought "Try putting it under pressure".

0:14:56 > 0:15:00Poof! Long-chain molecules, Bakelite, plastic.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04The telephone, bracelets, radios, records,

0:15:04 > 0:15:08coffins, submarines, the housing for the atom bomb -

0:15:08 > 0:15:10the world as we know it today.

0:15:10 > 0:15:14- That was your father? - No, that was my grandfather.

0:15:14 > 0:15:18My father is a crapule, my grandfather decidedly was not.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21- What does Papa do? - How do you mean?

0:15:21 > 0:15:25- Well, Francois at the... - Ecole?

0:15:25 > 0:15:32- Francois asked me...- You can tell him, "My father writes".

0:15:31 > 0:15:34"My father explores."

0:15:34 > 0:15:38"My father has a very refined knowledge of mathematics."

0:15:38 > 0:15:40Oh.

0:15:40 > 0:15:44And you can tell him that your mother was almost a movie star.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50Do you find my wife attractive?

0:15:50 > 0:15:52Most men do.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54But what she doesn't...

0:15:54 > 0:15:57What Barbara doesn't realise...

0:15:57 > 0:16:00..is that women find me...

0:16:01 > 0:16:04..you know...

0:16:05 > 0:16:07..attractive.

0:16:08 > 0:16:12Some people's fathers, some people's mothers,

0:16:12 > 0:16:17they have to go to an office or a factory or a store I guess every day.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19But we are fortunate...

0:16:20 > 0:16:24..because what we do is what we love.

0:16:24 > 0:16:25What does Francois's father do?

0:16:27 > 0:16:30- He works. - Ah, well, we worked.

0:16:30 > 0:16:34I mean, Father worked, Nini worked. There was no other way.

0:16:34 > 0:16:39I kind of had to raise myself and then I worked too at Filene's.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Then when I could I left.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44I just left.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49Nini wanted what was best for me - only what was best for me.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52"Find the mon," she'd say.

0:16:51 > 0:16:56She meant "man" I guess and she meant "money".

0:16:58 > 0:17:01The rich, they don't have pet names for money.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04Did you know Leonardo da Vinci wrote backwards?

0:17:04 > 0:17:06So you could only read it in a mirror.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14- (WOMAN SPEAKS IN SPANISH) - (MAN REPLIES IN SPANISH)

0:17:27 > 0:17:30- Entrez. - Hi.

0:17:29 > 0:17:31Carlos!

0:17:32 > 0:17:36Pilar! My, you're looking swell!

0:17:35 > 0:17:40Gracias. Mrs Baekeland, permit me to introduce Monsieur Souvestre.

0:17:40 > 0:17:44Jean-Pierre, I am so happy to meet you.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Please, come in.

0:17:49 > 0:17:52I have been dying to ask you about Marcel Proust,

0:17:52 > 0:17:55your biography of whom I have yet to read

0:17:55 > 0:17:58as my French reading skills are not what they will be.

0:17:58 > 0:18:01It is not necessary to apologise for that.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04Brooks, of course, reads the language like a native.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07And our Tony is mastering it every day at the Ecole Bilingue.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11But for pour moi I must confess it's been a struggle.

0:18:11 > 0:18:14- Understood.- What was I saying? Oh... yes...

0:18:14 > 0:18:19Jean-Pierre, was Proust truly a homosexual?

0:18:19 > 0:18:21(SPEAKS FRENCH)

0:18:24 > 0:18:28- So you met Carlos here in Paris? - I was at the Sorbonne,

0:18:29 > 0:18:33the adoring graduate student writing about his work.

0:18:33 > 0:18:38But then... we woke up one morning and none of that seemed to matter.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40I think I knew he was serious

0:18:40 > 0:18:44when he introduced me to Marcel and Teeny Duchamp.

0:18:44 > 0:18:48Oh! I ran into them today at L'Equipe.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52They said they might stop over... later. (SPEAKS FRENCH)

0:18:52 > 0:18:55You may be assured they were only being polite.

0:18:59 > 0:19:00I don't want to be impolite

0:19:00 > 0:19:04but Monsieur Souvestre has an early day tomorrow.

0:19:03 > 0:19:06He's off to Vittel.

0:19:06 > 0:19:10It is regrettable but what Mrs Duran says is the truth.

0:19:09 > 0:19:14Un petit cafe for the road? And you've yet to meet Tony.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Excusez-moi.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18(SIGHS / SPEAKS FRENCH)

0:19:24 > 0:19:26(SPEAKS FRENCH)

0:19:28 > 0:19:32Did I get it right? Did I get the order right?

0:19:32 > 0:19:35The younger is presented to the older, the less distinguished.

0:48:24 > 0:48:26Tony takes care of Barbara.

0:48:26 > 0:48:30Someone must take care of Tony.

0:48:49 > 0:48:52(SIGHS)

0:49:41 > 0:49:46What I would like to do ideally is to place you with a gallery.

0:49:45 > 0:49:49Or failing that, with a private dealer

0:49:49 > 0:49:52and that is something I know I can do.

0:49:59 > 0:50:02You shouldn't have done that.

0:50:05 > 0:50:09Sam... you should not have done that.

0:50:13 > 0:50:17He's your child and he will always be your child

0:50:17 > 0:50:21but he is a grown man with his own life and his own choices.

0:50:21 > 0:50:25- You don't know what you're talking about.- Tony is who Tony is.

0:51:11 > 0:51:17'Dear Papa, I don't know any other way to say this but straight out.'

0:51:18 > 0:51:23'Would you please come back to Mommy? She's so unhappy.'

0:51:24 > 0:51:28'She needs you...

0:51:28 > 0:51:31..but is too full of pride to ask.'

0:51:33 > 0:51:37'Do you remember our dog whom you named Giotto?'

0:51:41 > 0:51:46'For all the times we've moved, I've taken it from place to place.'

0:51:45 > 0:51:48'It's never gotten lost, not even once.'

0:51:53 > 0:51:56'I do not know why you fear me.'

0:51:56 > 0:51:59'I do not fear you.'

0:52:00 > 0:52:05'Sometimes I have a bloody mind and I don't know what to do about it

0:52:05 > 0:52:09but I fight it with everything I've got.'

0:54:59 > 0:55:01"Hold your head up high."'

0:55:09 > 0:55:14'A very strange thing is when your charm ceases.'

0:55:16 > 0:55:20'And for one reason or another, you become gloomy.'

0:55:24 > 0:55:26'And people cease to understand you

0:55:26 > 0:55:29when you need understanding the most.'

0:55:39 > 0:55:43'I now realize that for many years,

0:55:43 > 0:55:46I have been living a totally false life.'

0:59:19 > 0:59:22'I'm not sure, Papa, you would wanna know this

0:59:22 > 0:59:26but she used sleeping suppositories, six or seven of them,

0:59:26 > 0:59:29so that she wouldn't change her mind - couldn't.'

0:59:29 > 0:59:33'I remember she told me that her father, my grandfather,

0:59:33 > 0:59:36had killed himself, so I fear that...

0:59:36 > 0:59:40..all this ran very deep within her.'

0:59:43 > 0:59:47instead of staying out till morning, as is my custom.'

1:01:06 > 1:01:08(SPEAKS FRENCH)

1:01:08 > 1:01:11They told me that you had been there.

1:01:11 > 1:01:15This... must be very hard for you.

1:01:19 > 1:01:22Your music? Your writing?

1:01:22 > 1:01:26- That!- Carlos thinks very highly of you, always has.

1:01:26 > 1:01:30- And I'm sure he'll... - Have you seen Brooks?

1:01:30 > 1:01:33Carlos saw him.

1:01:35 > 1:01:40I don't think that Brooks is liking me very much these days.

1:01:43 > 1:01:46- He said I was a crapule. - Oh, please!

1:01:46 > 1:01:49To Brooks, everyone is a little shit.

1:01:49 > 1:01:53Everyone in the whole wide world. Including me, including you.

1:01:53 > 1:01:57- Including even Carlos, for God's sake!- But not Leo.

1:01:58 > 1:02:01Not the sainted grandfather.

1:02:05 > 1:02:08- What was it he said? - Who?

1:02:08 > 1:02:11Hemingway, I think. Or the other one.

1:02:11 > 1:02:15- Fitzgerald?- Hemingway or Fitzgerald. Yes. It was one of them.- Who said?

1:02:15 > 1:02:18Who said what it is I'm trying to remember!

1:02:18 > 1:02:22God! I'm turning into Nini.

1:02:23 > 1:02:26(SPEAKS FRENCH)

1:02:27 > 1:02:30I know. It was about Paris, I think. "If you're tired of Paris,

1:02:30 > 1:02:33you're tired of everything."

1:02:33 > 1:02:35I remember.

1:02:35 > 1:02:39"To say that one is tired of Paris

1:02:39 > 1:02:45is in fact to say that one is tired of life." Something like that.

1:02:45 > 1:02:50'Mommy hoped that with a new place would come better things for us

1:02:50 > 1:02:53and she was right, but not completely so.'

1:02:53 > 1:02:57'But still, Paris was a step up in the world.'

1:02:57 > 1:03:01'It was in Paris I started writing backwards in my notebook

1:03:01 > 1:03:04so that no-one could read my thoughts.'

1:03:04 > 1:03:08'But Mommy seemed to be able to read them anyway

1:03:08 > 1:03:12as if she were inside my head, looking out.'

1:03:18 > 1:03:22'My great-grandfather Leo once said, "One of the uses of money is

1:03:22 > 1:03:26that it allows us not to live with the consequences of our mistakes."'

1:03:28 > 1:03:32'But I fear that in this, Leo was wrong.'

1:03:34 > 1:03:38'Tony? Do you know what I would really love?'

1:03:40 > 1:03:44- What would you really love? - 'What do you think?'

1:03:46 > 1:03:49- This is so good. - I'm glad.

1:03:49 > 1:03:52It's exactly what I wanted.

1:03:52 > 1:03:55Well, then I'm all the more glad I was able to obtain it.

1:03:55 > 1:03:59Is there a better ice cream in the whole world?

1:04:01 > 1:04:04- Is it Thursday? - Yes, it is.

1:04:07 > 1:04:10I have dinner with Ethel tonight. Ethel de Croisset.

1:04:10 > 1:04:14- I'll make other plans.- She wouldn't mind if you tagged along.- No.

1:04:14 > 1:04:18I don't like what happens when you make other plans.

1:04:18 > 1:04:21Mommy, please.

1:04:22 > 1:04:25- The afternoon of the longest laundry? - (CHUCKLES)

1:04:25 > 1:04:28- I don't do that anymore. - Mmm. Hmm.

1:04:30 > 1:04:33What does the G stand for?

1:04:34 > 1:04:36- What, dear? - The G.

1:04:36 > 1:04:40George, like his father.

1:04:44 > 1:04:47Do my wrists, would you?

1:05:48 > 1:05:50That was lovely.

1:05:50 > 1:05:53And now...

1:05:54 > 1:05:57..I need some privacy.

1:06:00 > 1:06:03Scoot so that I can get dressed.

1:06:10 > 1:06:13I'm so sorry.

1:06:14 > 1:06:19'Mommy said I should be furious with you for stealing my girl.'

1:06:19 > 1:06:25'But I said, "Mommy, he didn't hurt me. He hurt you."'

1:06:25 > 1:06:28'Still, Papa, you should have come back.'

1:06:28 > 1:06:33'I thought that one day, you'd wake up and know that, too.'

1:06:33 > 1:06:35'But you never did.'

1:06:37 > 1:06:40'And something else I want you to know

1:06:40 > 1:06:43is Giotto's collar has disappeared

1:06:43 > 1:06:48and I will not be able to sleep until we find it.'

1:07:44 > 1:07:48Not the formal opening dinner, of course. That's me

1:07:48 > 1:07:52and 17 of his closest friends getting pissed at Regine's. Mmm.

1:07:52 > 1:07:57This is different. What I was thinking was after the vernissage,

1:07:57 > 1:08:01I would gather together a small group, you and Mishka of course,

1:08:01 > 1:08:04and Ethel de Croisset and the Durans

1:08:04 > 1:08:08and Bill and Rose Styron if they are still in town. Not buyers.

1:08:08 > 1:08:12- Not a business thing. Thank you. - People you love

1:08:12 > 1:08:15and who I know would love each other. I can't begin to tell you

1:08:15 > 1:08:21how much Tony adores London. It's brought about a sea change in him.

1:08:21 > 1:08:24Do you remember, in Paris, how down he could get?

1:08:24 > 1:08:28How pulled within himself? And then in the morning, how agitated?

1:08:28 > 1:08:31Well... that's still Tony, of course.

1:08:31 > 1:08:34But in London, he eats, he walks, he even shops.

1:08:34 > 1:08:38This morning, we stayed in bed until 11, reading the newspapers.

1:08:38 > 1:08:42- For him, that's unheard of. For me, paradise.- Oh, thank you.

1:08:42 > 1:08:45It's a pleasure.

1:08:45 > 1:08:49What do you think of a small dinner following the vernissage?

1:08:49 > 1:08:54- It sounds like a great idea.- Well, I was thinking I might have it here.

1:08:54 > 1:08:57I thought it might add a note of class to my own little works

1:08:57 > 1:09:02- which they, in no way, merits.- You can have your little dinner here.

1:09:04 > 1:09:07I don't know how to thank you.

1:09:08 > 1:09:11Tony will be thrilled.

1:09:18 > 1:09:21Well? Where is it?

1:09:24 > 1:09:28Where is it? Where did you put it?

1:09:28 > 1:09:32It is not my responsibility to keep track of your objects.

1:09:32 > 1:09:37- But it's not anywhere.- Missy Harnden is the soul of graciousness.

1:09:37 > 1:09:41When I mentioned that there would be a vernissage after the opening,

1:09:41 > 1:09:46she offered to host a little dinner, chez Harnden.

1:09:46 > 1:09:50- I'm so happy for you, Mommy.- I like the way you've been dressing lately.

1:09:50 > 1:09:55- Is that from Gieves?- No. Actually it's from Anderson and Sheppard.

1:09:55 > 1:09:58- Did you just walk in?- No. You might just walk into Gieves

1:09:58 > 1:10:02but you won't walk into Anderson, you get walked into Anderson.

1:10:02 > 1:10:05In my case, by Timothy Chalmers.

1:10:05 > 1:10:09Have you been seeing a lot of young Timothy Chalmers?

1:10:10 > 1:10:14I don't think he's the kind of person you want to be learning from

1:10:14 > 1:10:17if what you want to learn is how to be a man.

1:10:18 > 1:10:23- What do you mean?- I don't think Timothy likes women very much.

1:10:23 > 1:10:26Oh, he's English is all.

1:10:26 > 1:10:29He's the kind of person that does things for people

1:10:29 > 1:10:33in the way that Missy Harnden does for you.

1:10:33 > 1:10:35I hope you haven't incurred any obligation.

1:10:35 > 1:10:39Mother, we're talking about an introduction to a tailor.

1:10:39 > 1:10:44Well, I very much like this material... this fabric.

1:10:46 > 1:10:50- What would you call it? - It's a worsted, I should think.- Hmm.

1:10:50 > 1:10:54- It's much nicer than your other worsted.- Well, that's Anderson.

1:10:58 > 1:11:01This is interesting.

1:11:01 > 1:11:05Barbara... please.

1:11:05 > 1:11:10You don't seem to mind it. Part of you doesn't seem to mind it.

1:11:10 > 1:11:14I suppose I don't... mind.

1:11:14 > 1:11:17- You might even enjoy it. - I might.

1:11:17 > 1:11:20Ah, I'm finding some buttons here.

1:11:22 > 1:11:24- How many? - Five.

1:11:24 > 1:11:30- They do them with five. - That's five. That's four.

1:11:32 > 1:11:35That's three.

1:15:29 > 1:15:33For the same reason anyone cares about anything. For its value.

1:15:33 > 1:15:38- Its sentimental value. - We are talking about a dog collar.

1:15:38 > 1:15:41We are talking about a collar that belonged to Giotto,

1:15:41 > 1:15:45- a dog I loved and a dog that died! - Inside voice, please.

1:15:45 > 1:15:49Now the dog is gone but we still have the collar and we have moved

1:17:23 > 1:17:27- Then how did it get there? - Well, maybe you put it there

1:18:11 > 1:18:16After we fought this morning, you wrote something on a piece of paper.

1:18:17 > 1:18:20And I was so angry,

1:18:20 > 1:18:24that when you went out for lunch, I just had to tear it up.

1:18:24 > 1:18:28We didn't fight this morning. We stayed in and read the papers.

1:18:31 > 1:18:34You wrote it in that backwards writing.

1:18:34 > 1:18:37But I'm not stupid.

1:18:37 > 1:18:41I know that you think I'm not smart but I'm...

1:18:47 > 1:18:51..why you just hold it up to a mirror.

1:18:52 > 1:18:56So I tore it into little pieces and I flushed it down the toilet.
