an illicit acquaintance between
the emperor and this woman.

1:09:07
Then what was he suggesting?
1:09:09
What?
Out with it.

1:09:11
Sir, I took him rather
to imply that this lady...

1:09:15
not the emperor, was the prime
cause of your quarrel.

1:09:19
I have called him out near
to half a dozen times.

1:09:22
The cavalry knows. Would I have
done that for some petty nonsense?

1:09:27
She was a lady I held in high esteem.
Her salon was very well known in...

1:09:31
Strasbourg.
1:09:37
Yes, now I recall something else.
1:09:40
He said to me
in a public street...

1:09:42
I have it burnt in my mind.
He said to me...

1:09:45
"For all that I care, they can
spit upon Napoleon Bonaparte."

1:09:49
- Who were they?
- They, they!

1:09:51
When did the emperor
not have enemies?

1:09:53
D'Hubert is a turncoat!
That is a fact!

1:09:56
I say more. I say he never loved
the emperor! Never!

1:10:02
He saw a fair deal of campaigning.
1:10:07
When you meet him again, tell him
I will prove the truth of it...

1:10:10
at the first opportunity.
1:10:13
To the emperor. Good luck to him
and to those that love him.

1:10:19
But in less than 100 days,
Napoleon was defeated.

1:10:23
And I offer you
another toast.

1:10:26
Let us give thanks
for the safe return...

1:10:29
of His Sacred Majesty,
Louis XVIII.

1:10:32
God save the king.
1:10:34
God save the king.
1:10:39
And devil take the ogre...
1:10:41
to St. Helena.
1:10:45
This side of the grave, it seems
a fit and proper place for him.

1:10:50
Come, sir.
You're a royalist now...

1:10:52
like the rest of us.
1:10:54
Where else would you wish him
to be?

1:10:58
One celebration at a time, sir.
Don't you think?
