Five Golden Hours (1961)

Gabrielle: Ah, that Roberto. But why did he have to cheat?
Raphael: Debts! More than 160 million lire. And he figured that by gambling with our money he could pay off his debts and us. But...everthing just went pffff!
Gabrielle: And that's when he went...over the cliff?
Raphael: Oh, no. No. He told Sandra about his predicament and she, nice girl that she is, gave him all her jewellery but that went pffff in the same way.
Gabrielle: Well, it was decent of Sandra to have given him all her jewellery.
Raphael: As matters now stand, you'll get back about 2 million lire. We've attached the house.
Gabrielle: Is that so?
Raphael: We've given Sandra about six weeks to pay back the money and if she can't, well, pffff goes the house, everything in it.
Gabrielle: But I still pity Sandra.
Raphael: Oh, you do, do you?
Gabrielle: woman without a house can still live in a hotel--but, a woman without her jewellery...how does she pay for the room?
