- What do you mean Mr. Kralik and you talked things over? Whose shop is this?

- Yes, Mr. Matuschek.

- So you want the evening off, Mr. Kralik? Well, that's alright. I think we can manage without you.

- Mr. Matuschek, this is the first time in years I have asked a favor. If it weren't so very important...

- I'm being unjust?

- Once a year, I ask six ladies and gentlemen, six, mind you, when next door a shop twice as big as mine employs only four!

- Oh! Good morning, madam. Is there something I can show you?

- Have you any traveling bags for men with a zipper?

- Oh, yes, madam, we have all types of traveling bags for men with zippers.

- Thank you very much.

- I'm just doing a little window-shopping for my husband. He'll be here tomorrow.

- Well, I'll be delighted to serve him, madam.

- Thank you. Good morning.

- Good morning, madam.

- Six ladies and gentlemen who stand around here for days telling jokes and talking about the movies while I pay the gas and the rent and the light, and the taxes and their salaries!

- Good morning. Matuschek and Company. What? Yeah, just a moment. Mr. Pirovitch!

You see, I don't like him. I hate to spend a nickel on him. Still, I must give him a present. So I thought if I have to give him a present at least give him something he won't enjoy.

Now, wait a minute. You are the boss. That's right. But I am not going to be a yes man. No, sir. You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to contradict you. I do like you!

I think it's romantic. -What's romantic about it? -Well, cigarettes and music. I don't know. It makes me think of moonlight and... cigarettes and music.
