[after finding Peter tap-dancing]
What were you doing? Peter P. Peters:
Oh, just having fun. Jeffrey Baird:
The great Petrov doesn't dance for fun! Peter P. Peters:
Maybe not, but I do. Pete Peters, remember me? Jeffrey Baird:
Oh, that awful name of yours! Peter P. Peters:
I dunno, I kinda like it! Peter P. Peters, Philadelphia, PA. [Does short dance step] Jeffrey Baird:
How do you make that exasperating noise? What have you got on those shoes? Peter P. Peters:
Taps. Jeffrey Baird:
Taps! On your ballet shoes! Peter P. Peters:
Aw, but Jeff, I haven't neglected anything! Observe! The Entrechat Trois! [Does ballet step] Jeffrey Baird:
Lovely! Beautiful! Peter P. Peters:
But how much more effective it is this way! [Does tap variation on ballet step]

Stop it, stop it, stop that music.
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:08.803
- What on earth are you doing?
- I'm just having fun.
00:00:11.966 --> 00:00:14.862
Fun? The great Petrov doesn't dance for fun.
00:00:15.169 --> 00:00:18.596
The great Petrov doesn't,
but I do, Pete Peters, remember me?
00:00:18.626 --> 00:00:20.759
Oh, that awful name of yours.
00:00:21.096 --> 00:00:25.042
I was born with it, it isn't bad.
Pete Peters, Philadelphia, PA.
00:00:28.316 --> 00:00:31.716
How you make that exasperating noise?
What do you got on those shoes?
00:00:31.717 --> 00:00:33.118
- Taps.
- Taps?
00:00:34.763 --> 00:00:36.218
On your ballet shoes.
00:00:36.512 --> 00:00:38.635
- Sure.
- Sacrilege.
00:00:38.928 --> 00:00:42.145
At last I'm beginning to understand why
you wanted a private room to dance in.
00:00:42.146 --> 00:00:45.997
All this time I thought you
were practicing your grand leap.
00:00:45.001 --> 00:00:49.222
But Jeff, I haven't neglected
anything. Look, Le entrechat trois.
00:00:52.932 --> 00:00:57.297
- Lovely, beautiful.
- But how much more effective it is this way.
00:01:01.729 --> 00:01:05.044
Lovely, beaut, I forbid that, that's not art.
00:01:05.587 --> 00:01:08.705
Maybe it isn't. Perhaps
it's just the Philadelphia in me.
