- Something serious with your wife?
- No, no, she couldn't be better.
- Well, what do you want to call the doctor for?
- If I don't call him, he'll come. Excuse me, I'd better telephone him right away. I hope it isn't too late.

- Where do you eat?

- In the kitchen. You get a nice big kitchen.

- Where do you entertain?

- Entertain? What are you, an ambassador? Who do you want to entertain?

- Listen, if someone is really your friend he comes after dinner.

- Oh, no. Oh...

- Good morning.

- Good morning, Miss Novak.

- How's your wife, Mr. Pirovitch?

- Oh, my goodness!

- What's the matter?

- I forgot to call Dr. Hegedus.

- Something serious with your wife?

- No, no, she couldn't be better.

- Well, what do you want to call the doctor for?

- If I don't call him, he'll come. Excuse me, I'd better telephone him right away. I hope it isn't too late.

- Miss Novak?

- Yes, Mr. Kralik?

- I noticed that you wore a yellow blouse with light-green dots yesterday.

- No, Mr. Kralik. As usual, you're mistaken. It was green blouse with light-yellow dots. And everybody else thought it was very becoming.

- I don't remember every remarking about your neckties. And believe me, Mr. Kralik, if you think I couldn't say anything about your neckties just ask Mr. Vadas.

- So, please leave my blouse alone. It's none of your business.

- Well, I'm sorry. Mr. Matuschek seems to think it is my business.

- Oh, yes, that's right. I'm working under you. Well, from now on, I'll telephone you every morning and describe exactly what I'm going to wear. And before I select my next season's wardrobe, my dressmaker will submit samples to you.
