:50:00
Please, thank your mistress.
:50:22
I stink from head to toe.
:50:25
This is good.
I don't know it.
:50:28
It 's made from walnuts.
:50:30
What did you want?
:50:32
Monsieur sent me,
the King's brother.
:50:35
It 's not an easy embassy.
:50:41
Your name is in everybody's lips, you
know. This banquet will be decisive.
:50:45
Your geniuses...
:50:47
Get to the point.
:50:50
Monsieur wants you
for his friend.
:50:54
He admires, well... to speak quite
frankly, everything about you.
:50:59
So, what he wants
from you is...
:51:04
everything.
:51:13
-Do I hear you right?
-What do you hear?
:51:15
That monsieur has sent you
to ask me to join a long line...
:51:18
of stable boys and Princes
whom he has honored so... intimately.
:51:23
Yes, your hearing is very good.
:51:25
Tell Monsieur...
:51:27
and I quote Descartes
whom I once knew...
:51:30
''There is no soul so weak
that it cannot...
:51:33
acquire an absolute power
over the passions.''
:51:37
Monsieur is not a Cartesian,
as far as is known.
:51:41
He only wants a few moments
of your time.
:51:44
Then I send him a message
which reveals more of me...
:51:48
than he would ever see
if I were to submit. Tell him...
:51:53
that both of us live
with a terrible thing.
:51:56
The desire for the absolute.
:51:59
The sublime. The perfect.
