- Thank you.
Let's drink to
Let's drink.
Nothing a don likes more
than bashing another man's discipline.
One can hardly call
psychoanalysis a discipline.
- But it helps people.
- Yes, yes, there's the therapeutic promise.
Here he is, hah, a real doctor!
Victor, Anne, a pleasure to see you.
Eleanor
I do like you in pink.
It matches your eyes.
Is that vodka I see?
Please don't take this the wrong way
but I find it hard to
imagine you as a doctor.
So did I, my dear,
and I must confess to stumbling a little
over the Hippocratic Oath.
Fortunately, my wife's money
removed the necessity of
my leading a useful life.
Her great gift.
I appreciate your escorting
my wife to the airport.
It was pure pleasure, as was this.
Ah.
So much pleasure in one day.
My cup runneth over
I've had a very special day
too.
Must be magic in the air.
Hey, Dave.
I love those kinky yellow slippers.
Do you really like them? I'm so pleased.
- Vodka, my dear?
- Do you have a Coke?
Alcohol's such a crude high.
Let's have dinner.
Victor, you sit there.
No.
No
Anne, you sit next to
No, that's not right.
Thank God we're only six.
While we wait for Eleanor
to solve the problem,
Anne, tell me, what did you
think of the Emperor Galba?
Oh, terrific.
A terrific character.
Anne was particularly
taken with Caligula.
Victor attempted to make
me feel sorry for him.
Bridget, you sit here with me.
But Tiberius killed his whole family.
It's only natural that
those who are terrified
become terrifying,
given the opportunity.
Is that how it worked at Eton?
Anne takes a rather satirical attitude
to the English public school system.
Does she now?
And as to his obsession
with screwing his sisters
Oh, well, you know what they say.
Vice is nice, but incest is best.
Now, I'm sure I'd have liked the chap.
He did exactly what he wanted to do
with no nonsense about ethics.
Why do you think it's
superior to be amoral?
It's not a question of being superior:
it's a question of not
being a bore or a prig.
What one aims for is ennui.
Eleanor, what a
marvelous memory you have,
to be able to duplicate
the dinner we had last time.
She has that expression she puts on
when she's thinking of
her dear, rich dead mother.
I'm right, aren't I, darling?
Yes, David.
Once Eleanor's dear
father had been dismissed
for being too drunk,
Eleanor's mother decided
to purchase a human antique.
A "real, old aristocrat",
on the grounds that if
you're going to buy a husband,
he might as well be a duke.
And so the Duc De Valencay
was re-upholstered with
thick wads of dollars.
But you just can't treat
human beings like things.
- Definitely.
- You agree with me?
Definitely.
Maybe the human antique
wanted to be bought.
Oh, I've no doubt of that.
I'm sure he was licking the windowpane.
What so shocked Eleanor's mother
was that he dared to rear up
on his Louis XV legs
and start giving orders.
You see, I feel that so strongly.
That the problem with the world
is people treating
other people like things.
I so agree.
That's something
else we have in common.
Things should be
treated with great care.
Excuse me.
"What one aims for is ennui"!
- Hello, Patrick.
- I broke a glass.
Don't tell my father.
You look so grim.
What's up?
Can't you get to sleep?
Does it hurt? Let me see if it's
- No, I only wanted to
- I'm fine.
You're shaking.
Do you want to tell me? What is it?
Patrick?
I gather that Gerald Frogmore
shot more birds last year
than anyone in England.
Not bad for a chap in a wheelchair.
Perhaps he resents their
freedom of movement.
I mean, what about your mother?
Do you want to tell your mother?
Okay, I'll be right back.
I promise.
I don't believe you.
You say you will but you won't.
Patrick, I will.
Everyone enjoyed themselves,
even the man who was being hanged.
- Fun for all the family.
- I found Patrick on the stairs.
He wants to talk to you.
- Darling.
Eleanor?
- Yes?
I thought we'd agreed that
you wouldn't rush to Patrick
each time he whines and blubbers.
He fell earlier so he he may be hurt.
In that case he may need a doctor.
He's not hurt.
He just
wants to talk to his mother.
You see, darling? He isn't hurt.
And so it's just a
question of sentiment.
Does one allow oneself
to be blackmailed or not?
If you sit, we can discuss it.
The proposition I'd like
to make is that education
should be something of
which a child can later say:
"If I survived that, I
can survive anything.
"
Well, that's crazy and
wrong and you know it!
Well, I certainly think a
child should be challenged
Oh, for goodness sakes, Victor!
Well, nobody wants anyone to be
miserable.
We're just saying
We! Because God forbid you
should ever contradict him.
it doesn't do a child
any good to be molly-coddled.
I know it's an
unfashionable point of view,
but in my opinion,
nothing that happens to you
as a child really matters.
When it comes to things
that don't matter,
you're top of my list.
- Saying silly things to sound less pompous
- Oh, my word!
- and pompous things to sound less silly.
- A ferocious backhand there
- from the young American lefty.
- It's pathetic.
Well, nothing that
happened in your childhood
did matter, Nicholas.
You just did exactly
what everyone expected.
Well, I refuse to apologize
for an uneventful childhood,
or to relish the suffering
over the happiness:
- big lawns, buckets and spades,
- What the fuck?
Throwing coins into the
golden pool at the Ritz.
