:51:05
- Edouard de Montray, I presume?
- In person.
:51:08
I was so anxious to meet you.
:51:10
- And now I have. I'm delighted.
- How amusing.
:51:14
Amusing and unexpected.
And to whom...
:51:17
No one.
It's of no importance.
:51:20
You do realize that I find
your manner most distasteful.
:51:25
Who are you, Monsieur?
:51:28
Is it not absurd to ask people
who they are?
:51:31
- Excuse me?
- That's why they're so evasive.
:51:35
They give you the easy reply:
a name, a title.
:51:39
But who they are really,
:51:41
who they are deep down,
:51:44
they conceal with great care.
:51:47
- You speak for yourself.
- No, everyone. You as well.
:51:52
I find your ways quite indiscreet.
:51:55
You don't know me,
yet you ask who I am. The gall!
:51:58
Enough.
Where can my seconds...
:52:01
Pointless! I'm not a man who duels.
Absolutely not!
:52:06
That explains things in part.
:52:09
Or if I do,
the choice of arms is always mine.
:52:12
I choose one, just one,
:52:16
and I keep one for me, on me,
:52:20
and I kill when I'm sure,
when it pleases me.
:52:23
Obviously, more expedient.
:52:25
To each his own method.
:52:27
Quite.
:52:29
I presume
you have nothing more to say.
:52:32
Valentin!
:52:34
I warn you I am not a man
one throws out.
:52:37
I would regret
having to kill a servant.
:52:40
Valentin is an old retainer
whom I'm fond of.
:52:44
Valentin,
will you show Monsieur out?
