On Saturday the twenty-sixth
one hour before dinner

2:07:05
Monsieur de Bergerac was fouly
and ignobly murdered.

2:07:10
What have they done to you?
2:07:11
Fate's a jester.
2:07:14
I always wanted to die in battle.
2:07:19
And here I am killed in an ambush
from behind, by lackeys...with a beam.

2:07:28
So be it
I made a mess of everything

2:07:32
Even my own death.
2:07:39
Don't cry so, Ragueneau.
2:07:43
Go and get help!
2:07:45
No, no. Don't go. When you...
come back, I'll be gone.

2:07:54
What do you do now, fellow poet?
No more cakes?

2:07:58
No, I work for Moliere.
My friends ruined me...

2:08:02
And your wife left you.
2:08:06
Moliere?
2:08:08
What do you do for him?
2:08:11
I snuff out the candles.
2:08:12
I'm leaving him though.
2:08:15
I'm so angry!
2:08:17
Yesterday, during Scapin
a scene was by you.

2:08:21
All of it!
2:08:22
Yes, the famous monologue.
2:08:24
Moliere stole it!
2:08:27
He did well...
2:08:29
Was the scene a success?
2:08:32
They laughed and laughed!
2:08:37
My life's work
has been to prompt others

2:08:42
and be forgotten.
2:08:44
Remember that night when Christian
came to your balcony?

2:08:48
That moment sums up my life.
2:08:52
While I was below in the dark shadows
2:08:56
others climbed up
to kiss the sweet rose.
