"Excuse me, sir," he said, very politely, "but could you tell me the time?"
The man, who was very well-dressed and looke quite rich, said nothing. He did not even look at Alan. Alan spoke to him again. "Excuse me, sir," he said, "but could you please tell me what time it is?"

You are a pleasant, polite young man, so when my taxi comes, I offer you a ride. You accept. We talk.
I like you. You like me. I invite you to my home. You meet my daughter. She is a very pretty girl. You are a good-looking man. You like each other. Soon you fall in love. You want to marry. Now do you understand my problem?"
Alan shook his head. " No, sir, I’m sorry, I don ’t. Everything you have said seems very natural to me. "
" Exactly," the man said, " and I do not want my daughter to marry a man who is too poor to buy a watch. Good morning to you. " And with these words he hurried away.
