This is the scene where Oliver and Barbara first meet. It seems that even before they become aquainted, they are competing against one another. During the estate sale, Oliver is seen with an antique reference book. The auctioneer's description of the statue being Japanese is apparently incorrect, because Oliver's antique reference book clearly states that it is Chinese.
