- Tomorrow.
- The evidence is overwhelming.
1:05:03
I returned so you could dismiss me
and press charges for slander.
1:05:11
I must consider.
1:05:16
I was just on my way home.
Walk with me.
1:05:20
You are a stern man.
1:05:23
But you're honorable.
I want you to remain prefect.
1:05:27
- Monsieur le Maire, that's impossible.
- You've exaggerated your offense.
1:05:31
I've not exaggerated, monsieur.
1:05:34
I resented you.
I chafed at your authority.
1:05:38
And out of revenge I slandered you.
1:05:42
If a subordinate of mine had done that
I would have broken him.
1:05:47
You must punish me, monsieur,
or my life will have been meaningless.
1:05:52
Blame me.
1:05:56
- You, Monsieur le Maire?
- I order you to forgive yourself.
1:06:01
Blame me for that mercy.
1:06:03
You will remain prefect.
Those are my orders.
1:06:38
Will you go get her today?
1:06:41
Yes. Tonight.
1:06:49
Is something wrong?
