Louise

My father could juggle so beautifully with three ivory balls that people used to advise him to go on the stage.


Julie

Who told you that?


Louise

Uncle Wolf.


Liliom

Who is that?


Louise

Mr. Wolf Beifeld, who owns the Café Sorrento.


Liliom

The one who used to be a porter?


Julie

[Astonished.] Do you know him, too? It seems that you know all Budapest.


Liliom

Wolf Beifeld is a long way from being all Budapest. But I do know a lot of people. Why shouldn't I know Wolf Beifeld?


Louise

He was a friend of my father.
