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 think following the instructions is the way to pass the class.

ALBERT: Is that all you want from an education, to pass your exams?

MILEVA: I want a degree, don't you?

ALBERT: Certainly, but I'm a student of science because, well, I want to discover new ways of understanding the world around me. Don't you already know how this will turn out?

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

ALBERT: Oh. Ow. Ah.
