[ELIZABETH]
How you've grown!

[ALEX]
It's been two years

[ELIZABETH]
You should have phoned
Your uncle isn't here

[ALEX]
I might have guessed!

[ELIZABETH]
And such a splendid uniform!

[ALEX]
(looking around the flat)
The same old paintings

[ELIZABETH]
Madame will be so thrilled to meet you
I'll go and tell her

[ALEX]
"Giulietta Trapani"
[ELIZABETH]
Life has changed!
Since those two met
He lives life to the full!

[ALEX]
Well, good for him!

[ELIZABETH]
She has made him young again!

[ALEX]
Where is he now, then?

[ELIZABETH]
He's doing up the country villa
They plan to live there
Now, tell me, do you still like omelettes?
Won't be a moment!

[ALEX]
And so he got his wicked way with that Italian girl
He hasn't lost his touch

[ROSE]
Well, hello
[ALEX]
I should have known
Where you were hiding
You like the good life
George likes trinkets!
God, what a fool
I was to love you!
What was all my searching for?
It's never hard to find a whore!

[ROSE]
Well, if it makes you happy, think it

[ALEX]
You scheming bitch

[ROSE]
The truth is we're a perfect pair

[ALEX]
Because he's rich

[ROSE]
Shout and scream
I don't care
[ALEX]
You could have let me know!

[ROSE]
Your uncle's shown me new horizons

[ALEX]
Well, didn't I?

[ROSE]
And as a lover he is perfect too

[ALEX]
Another lie!

[ROSE]
He takes his time
Unlike you

[ALEX]
I wasn't good enough?

[ROSE]
Why can't you listen
And come to your senses?
It's George
I really love George
He's made me a
Better, fuller, stronger person
I have never been as happy!

[ALEX]
Or, indeed, as wealthy

[ROSE]
Look, I don't need your uncle's money!
And I could have a thousand lovers!
Yet I've been faithful and I'm happy
More faithful than he'll ever be:
It's not as if he's married me!

[ALEX]
I'd better go
I'm sorry
It was a shock

[ROSE]
Try and understand
And it won't hurt you so much

[ALEX]
At least admit you loved me once

[ROSE]
Of course I did
I may even love you now
George gives me so much
But he gets so little from me
But with you I made an impression
That will last you a lifetime
