:39:02
and they understand
up in the Gods.
:39:05
They understand,
though they're poor.
:39:08
I'm like them.
I love them, I know them.
:39:11
Their lives are small,
but their dreams are vast.
:39:14
I don't only want to amuse them.
:39:17
I want to move them,
:39:19
frighten them, make them weep.
:39:22
- All that without saying a word?
- Without saying a word.
:39:25
- That's difficult.
- You think it's impossible?
:39:27
No, difficult.
It's not the same.
:39:30
Barkeep!
:39:34
Consider yourself lucky
I can pay for the drink.
:39:38
- But not a bed.
- Try the Post House.
:39:42

- No, but they let rooms.
:39:45
- On credit?
- If not, I'd live elsewhere.
:39:50

:39:52
No, really,
a small room is fine.
:39:56
What a shame!
:39:57
It's perfect for a bachelor.
:40:00
But I'll show you
the rooms upstairs.
:40:04
- I'm sorry it's so late, Madame...
- Madame Hermine.
:40:08
Don't apologize.
I usually turn in late.
:40:11
I often read for hours... in bed.
:40:14
Love stories, no doubt?
:40:17
Oh, Mr Baptiste, this young man
knows a woman's soft spot.
:40:22
- After you, Monsieur...
- Frederick. Frederick Lemaitre.
:40:25
No, after you.
:40:27
Oh, please.
:40:37
Well, good night, Frederick.
:40:39
Good night, Mme Hermine.
:40:42
Going out at this hour?
:40:44
Yes, he goes out every night.
:40:47
A real alley cat, Mr Baptiste is.
:40:50
"Silent, stealthy as a cat
in the night,
:40:54
he slinks through the shadows
towards love's light,
:40:57
to his beloved,
his heart's pyre,
