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

Who told you that?

Uncle Wolf.

Who is that?

Mr. Wolf Beifeld, who owns the Café Sorrento.

The one who used to be a porter?

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

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?

He was a friend of my father.
