- You came to ask me that?
- Why'd he send me an invitation?
- I don't know.
Why should I know about your invitations? I don't know anything.

Why did you come here? I know nothing.

Who is Secretary Bailey?
Secretary Bailey is a rich businessman.
He came to the United States as an immigrant and made a lot of money in San Francisco and L.A., where he's lived for 30 years.
I know all that. It's all in the papers.
What else is there?
He married a very wealthy woman.
They had a child.
She died when the child was born.
A few years ago, he went into politics.
Moved here.
That's history. I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about now.
Right now he's in trouble.
Just tell me you've been living with him all these years, and you're his lover.
Age can wither me, Noodles.
We're both getting old.
All that we have left now are our memories.
If you go to that party on Saturday night, you won't have those anymore.
Tear up that invitation.
