I'm here to see General Thé.

September, October, November...
:40:38
I'd seen Pyle only once since
he'd asked Phuong to marry him,

:40:42
at the Continental.
:40:44
He'd been polite, of course -
:40:46
how was I, how was Phuong?
:40:49
He'd been busy, he said, out of the city,
:40:52
working on his medical programme.
:40:55
Though somehow,
I wasn't surprised to see him.

:40:58
I was surprised to be pleased to see him.

- What brings you out to these parts?
- I was hoping to interview the General.

:41:06
But they've thrown me out of the place.
:41:09
- What's your excuse this time?
- This is like a test run for us.

:41:13
The French, in their typically French way,
have been very uncooperative

:41:17
but General Thé has been good enough
to let us set up camp here.

:41:22
I'll get them to let you in.

:41:32
- Hello. How are you?
- Good.

:41:55
My name is Mr Muoi.
The General only has a few moments.

:41:59
May I first ask you a question?
