París, tú y yo

Richard: [knock on door] Yes?

Gabrielle: Mr. Benson?

Richard: You are, I assume, the young lady from the typing bureau?

Gabrielle: I am.

Richard: In that case, if we are to have a happy and harmonious relationship, I beg of you, never answer a question with a question. Is that clear?

Gabrielle: Did I?

Richard: There you go again, answering a question with a question. My original yes when you opened the door was a question, question mark implied of course. You do know the difference between implied and inferred?

Gabrielle: Isn't that a question?

Richard: [pauses] Yes.

Gabrielle: Well, you just answered my question with a question. To imply is to indicate without saying openly or directly, to infer is to conclude from something known or assumed.
