ALBERT: Miss Maric.

MILEVA: Are you under the impression you're the only one in the building?

ALBERT: Sorry, did I disturb you?

MILEVA: Your playing is adequate, but it makes it quite difficult to concentrate.

ALBERT: Apologies. Mozart helps me think.

MILEVA: I'm not sure this assignment requires much thought.

ALBERT: Well, not if we were to follow these inelegant instructions. There must be a better approach, don't you think?

MILEVA: I find knowing how it will turn out reassuring. Discover quietly, Herr Einstein. Please.
