A Very Special Favor1965

Michel Boullard:
Monsieur, a father with a daughter who is a thirty year old spinster... do you know what it means?

Paul Chadwick:
Yeah, it means that any able-bodied man who can run, walk or crawl should avoid you

Michel Boullard:
Of course, when a daughter posseses a certain innocence at eighteen, for a father it's a joy to behold. When she's twenty-one, you're still happy but, er, thoughtful. When she's twenty-five, you are no longer smiling...

Paul Chadwick:
...It's getting grim

Michel Boullard:
When she's twenty-nine, going on thirty, what does a father do?

Paul Chadwick:
Turns to prayer. There's nothing left

Michel Boullard:
There is one hope - a man. A very special man; worldly, sophisticated. One who will gently lead her into a romantic adventure, an emotional interlude from whose fires a woman shall be born. Such a man is hard to find...

Paul Chadwick:
I will be, if you give me a ten minute head start!

Michel Boullard:
Please, Monsieur, I'm desperate. Can a man abandon his only child?

Paul Chadwick:
I think, in this case, society will forgive you
