He didn't have enough cash, so in order not
to lose the bargain, he borrowed money from this honest swindler you
see here. You are not so angry as you were, I bet.
Richly:
On the contrary, I'm overjoyed. Oh, sir, this Mr. Edward who owes you
the money is my son.
Roger:
And this gentleman is the father--got it?
Andre:
I've overjoyed as well.
Richly:
Don't worry about your money. I approve what my son has done. Come
back tomorrow and you will have your money--in cash.
Andre:
I'm your servant, sir.
(Exit Mr. Andre, delighted)
Richly:
Now tell me in what part of town is the house located?
Roger:
In what part of town?
Richly:
Yes, there are several neighborhoods. This one here for example.
Roger:
Well, indeed, it's also located in this quarter.
Richly:
Good--so much the better. Where exactly?
Roger:
Hold on--(pointing) Do you see that house with an arbor where the
windows have been repainted?
Richly:
Yes, well--?
Roger:
That's not it. But a little farther off. The one with the big
gatehouse which is right next to the other one.
