[Louisa and Isabel have arrived from America and are visiting him in his Parisian mansion]

This is my music room.

Louisa Bradley

Oh, isn't that lovely?

Oh, what a beautiful piano!

Well, it's a spinet by Larande, late 18th century French.

Louisa Bradley

It must have cost a fortune.

It did. My poor dear friend, the viscount de Corvence had to part with it at a slight reduction, but then, estates are so draining on one these days, don't you find?

And are all these things for sale?

My dear Louisa, this isn't a shop. Oh, I occasionally allow the odd piece to be torn from my grasp.

You know, if I may say so, Louisa, it makes perfect sense to me. All Americans should avail themselves of at least one season in Paris just prior to marriage. It curbs the itches which tend to rise a year or two down the connubial pike.

Louisa Bradley

Elliot, don't be vulgar.

You know, that's always been my problem. People think I'm being vulgar when I'm being serious, and they think I'm being serious when I'm being vulgar.

[Holding freshly made hot dogs at the fair]

This is the singly most disgusting concoction in the culinary annals.

Louisa Bradley

That didn't stop you eating a dozen of them every 4th of July when you were a boy, Elliott.

Well, this quaint little village may have been the place of my birth, but after 15 years in Paris, I have come to regard that as a most unfortunate accident of genetics.

Louisa Bradley
[laughing]

Oh, Elliot, you are the biggest snob in the world!

I sincerely hope so.

Nice looking dog you've got there, Unc!

Oh, how I envy you, young man. Off to Paris, the City of Light. You know, I really ought to provide you with a few introductions. I could put you in touch with some of the most elite members of the European aristocracy while you're there.
