1:31:03
Why should I tell you?
1:31:05
When my son returned from Rome...
1:31:08
he mentioned he'd heard Monte Cristo
saying he was expecting a shipment.

1:31:12
He also heard the words
"gold" and "Spada."

1:31:17
- Hmm.
- You don't believe...

1:31:20
Monte Cristo
has found the treasure of Spada.

1:31:23
Not an hour ago, he asked me to help
him avoid troublesome inspections...

1:31:26
on a shipment coming from Marseilles.
1:31:28
- Hmm.
- I could have him arrested.

1:31:30
Don't do that.
Let's just relieve him of it.

1:31:35
- How do you propose...
- I have an acquaintance
who deals in these matters.

1:31:38
Tell Monte Cristo you'll get
his shipment through Customs...

1:31:40
but that it will have
to stay in port overnight.

1:31:43
I shall have it removed and taken
to my old family estate in Bouchon...

1:31:47
where we shall meet
the following day.

1:31:53
I require 70 percent.
1:31:56
- And yet you'll only get 50.
- Done.

1:32:25
Ladies and gentlemen...
1:32:28
unfortunately, my husband
has been detained by business.

1:32:32
And so it is left up to me to...
1:32:36
To introduce you...
1:32:39
to the Count of Monte Cristo yet again.
1:32:42
You see, I had the audacity
to beg the count...

1:32:45
to allow me to give
the birthday toast to Albert.

1:32:48
I was so insistent, and such is
the graciousness of our host...

1:32:52
that he reluctantly gave up
his fatherly right...

1:32:54
in order to accommodate a guest,
even one as boorish as myself.
