Sitting in court, Pu Yi's spectacles are brought to him. He is shown pictures of potential wives. He doesn't like any of their faces. He then tells Reg his wife was chosen for him but his consort was up to him. He says he wants a wife who can dance the quick step.
ICONIC QUOTE:
"I want a modern wife, Johnston, who speaks English and French and who can dance the quickstep."
(Pu Yi, at 15)
