00:01:21 Such pests are wise to fear manic timekeeping!
00:02:18 Pretentious little fool!
00:03:05 It was different in the past.
00:03:56 And what was her reply?
00:04:51 Sometimes I enjoy it when a lover is late.
00:06:04 Anyway, her last excuse
00:07:16 Or rather, I'll ask you to wait for her.
00:08:12 What are you enacting here? A drama or a farce?
00:09:43 Where's Bruno?
00:10:39 We're going on holiday tomorrow.
00:11:43 Bruno, did you hear?
00:12:21 I'm coming out of the bathroom, but I remain inflexible.
00:13:46 You talk of being slighted.
00:14:53 I won't deprive myself of both.
00:16:38 Last night I saw a shooting star.

00:20:58 Enough of this hypocrisy!
00:22:11 Go.
