SCHWARTZENHOPFEL
Percentages from haberdashers and shirt-makers, tailors, bootmakers, jewellers. Double bills: one for me, one for you—you pocket the difference?
VALET (astounded at his accuracy)
Mr. Magnus, I swear—
SCHWARTZENHOPFEL
Don’t perjure yourself. Take one hundred and fifty dollars a month—I’m buying back your self-respect with the extra fifty and giving it to you. But if you cheat again—remember, if you cheat again—jail!
VALET (with tears in his eyes and choking voice)
Sir—
SCHWARTZENHOPFEL
Wait in there. (Points to the door, and the valet goes out; then to chauffeur) And I give you?
