believe me it's not easy for me to call
you after I neglected my obligations to
you Paul it wasn't only your obligation
to me it was a little more than that but
let's not discuss it I don't like to be
here just for emergencies it's
humiliating and I don't intend to
finance or sponsor your irresponsible
adventures I know you understand whole
Paul hey there.

nothing so special about me for men of
your standard I'm not even to

little cheap with my page tear my legs
are okay but nothing to rave about their
sure trying hard to talk me out of
yourself just but I better both of us

strange fascination it's like a curse
like a heavy veil I tried everything
clear all of it in my despair him took
your part like a little toy physically
as tribute to a bowl mentally to a cheap
little tramp everything went fine just
fine for the first moment you came here

Hello mrs. Marvin I'm June Fowler mother
asked me to call you she's very sorry
about the accident and she told me to
ask you if thank you it's very nice of
you but I don't need anything thanks bye
hey that woman mrs. Fowler she brought
Paul over for Europe now if she asked
what she can do to help where does the
doctor say it's not as bad as expected
they stopped the machine just in time
you'll get out the hospital in a few
days but he'll never be able to play
again that's terrible what will happen
then I don't know the insurance company
called about some papers I told them I
didn't know anything about it well don't
worry Carlos didn't take care of you
he's well off now you know I can't take
money from Carlo from his friend from a
fellow artist why not it's too crazy
about you
how do you know well I know that you let
you dance three solo members and give
you featured billing did he tell you
that sure I would not make it us what's
he use can you explain how the accident
happened mr. Model did you slip or no I
I fainted you see I had some trouble
financial trouble partly I had a quarrel
with my wife jealousy level your wife is
very young and beautiful it's
understandable go ahead please so I came
to the publishers office to play my
composition and
problem the intrusion mrs. Marvin I'm
Diana fella I know my husband isn't home
yet I came to see you mrs. Melvin
I'm quite tired of apologizing for this
terrible mess but I don't feel
responsible believe it or not don't
bother please sit down anyplace you'll
get dirty anyway.
I must admit I'm not fit to make a very
good impression I'm so tired I won't
stay long if you came to offer me
financial help thanks I don't need any
my friends to Karen air I hope you don't
mind if I close my eyes they hurt so
badly no no not at all I understand Paul
is doing quite well it'd be discharged
in a few days I just talked to him a
little while ago he just got his last
check I was told as far as his playing
again is concerned it doesn't look too
good that's at least you could say about
it really tragic but fortunately it is
the insurance good for him I hope it
will give him some kind of security well
you won't have to worry for quite some
time at least I don't worry about myself
as a matter of fact yes nothing may I
guess it's such a delicate matter I'm
rather afraid of using the wrong words
I'll try to take their words with what
they mean and not how they sound well
mrs. Marvin I believe it was ambition
rather than love that attracted you to
Paul it meant a great deal to you to be
the wife of a man of his genius his
social standing you tried very hard to
climb up to him but only succeeded in
dragging him down forgive me for saying
it alright I made a mistake that I
didn't mean anything bad I didn't want
to hurt him it just happened so but Paul
is madly in love with you he's quite
convinced he can't live without you
that's just the trouble any sacrifice I
make anything I do will lead to nothing
I feel trapped I want to get out what
shall I do and without his music he'll
suffer even more in the peace rest and
lots of patience mrs. Fowler may I ask
you a question please do are you in love
with him
no we're good actress it falls was a
little too long Jenkins for the media
bad egg why do you ask I need your help
well how can I help you can't expect me
to talk you into leaving Paul just to
ease your conscience but if I do leaving
not just my sake for the sake of both
ends would you take care of me do you
think I'd make a good nurse I'm sure you
can give him all those things you talked
about rest peace of mind and patience
what do you say it's open excuse me I
didn't know you had company that's all
right I'm leaving right away if there's
anything I can do for you mrs. Northern
anything at all please let me know
goodbye.
[Music]
I wouldn't let you go home today but I
want to see your friday and then every
third day come shape next time mmm tell
me doctor what's the final verdict give
a time and let's hope that's all I can
say for the present thank you oh are you

Peterson thank you for everything good
luck sir Thank You Margo
