:37:00
- Sorry. Got held up.
- Can I offer you a drink?
:37:06
Oh, my goodness!
:37:08
When I spoke those words to you
before, you--you filled me
with such inspiration.
:37:12
Yes, I realized how much work we
had to do, so I called everyone
for an emergency rehearsal.
:37:17
If you're rehearsing,
where's Zidler?
:37:20
- We didn't bother Harold.
- My dear Duke, I'm most terribly sorry.
:37:24
Harold, you made it. It's all right.
The Duke knows about
the emergency rehearsal.
:37:28
- Emergency rehearsal?
- Mmm, to incorporate
the Duke's artistic idea.
:37:31
- Hmm?
- I'm sure Audrey will be
only too delighted--
:37:34
- Audrey's left.
- He's what?
- The cat's out of the bag.
:37:37
Yes, the Duke's already a big fan
of our new writer's work.
:37:41
- That's why he's so keen to invest.
- Invest?
:37:44
Invest!
Oh, yes, well, invest!
:37:47
You can hardly blame me
for trying to hide, uh--
:37:50
- Christian.
- Christian away.
:37:52
- I'm way ahead of you, Zidler.
- My dear Duke.
:37:55
Why don't you and I go to my office
to peruse the paperwork?
:37:57
- What's the story?
- The story?
:37:59
Well, if I'm to invest,
I'll need to know the story.
:38:02
Ah, yes.
Well, the story's about--
:38:06
Toulouse?
:38:08
[ Nervous Laugh ]
Well, the story's-- the story's about--
:38:12
- Well, it's-it's about--
- It's about love.
:38:15
- Love?
- It's about love
overcoming all obstacles.
:38:21
And it's set in Switzerland!
:38:24
- Switzerland?
- Exotic Switzerland!
:38:26
India. India!
It's set in India!
:38:30
And there's a courtesan.
:38:33
The most beautiful courtesan
in all the world.
:38:37
But her kingdom's invaded
by an evil maharajah!
:38:40
In order to save her kingdom,
she has to seduce the evil maharajah.
:38:45
But on the night
of the seduction,
:38:47
she mistakes a penniless--
a penni--
:38:51
penniless sitar player...
:38:53
for the evil maharajah,
and she falls in love with him.
:38:57
He wasn't trying to trick her
or anything, but he was
dressed as a maharajah...
