:07:03
Partners held hands
in a distant way
:07:06
l like a different style
:07:08
lt may seem futile
:07:10
But it makes me smile
:07:23
l have the feeling
Madame Valandray has forgotten
:07:25
that she was supposed
to be at home for friends today.
:07:28
There's no need to stand
on ceremony with friends.
:07:30
Besides, Gilberte
is a whirlwind,
:07:31
and a whirlwind doesn't run
to a fixed schedule.
:07:33
Her sister,
Mademoiselle Poumaillac,
:07:35
is more like a whirlwind!
:07:37
Mademoiselle Poumaillac
is a tornado.
:07:39
l've never known
such a turbulent spinster.
:07:42
Perhaps that's
what makes her turbulent.
:07:45
Ah! That's Mademoiselle
Poumaillac.
:07:46
So l hear.
:07:47
...and this for
the laundry room.
:07:49
How are you, my dear?
:07:51
lt's lovely to see you.
:07:54
How's your mother?
:07:56
l've left the large parcels
in the motor.
:07:58
Send the man down for them.
:07:59
Good old Faradel!
:08:01
Ever loyal...ever precise...
:08:04
-What have you brought us?
-l called to...
:08:05
My dear,
those department stores...
:08:07
l was only there for an hour
but l'm absolutely exhausted.
:08:12
Guess whom l just met
on the Boulevard Haussmann.
:08:15
Pélissot! The man's
the ghost of himself.
:08:17
He looks a hundred.
:08:19
His mistress has just left him.
:08:21
l saw a darling little slip
on Rue de la Paix.
:08:24
Did he catch her
in ''flagrante delicto''?
:08:26
With ribbons along the hem
and a lovely cut.
:08:29
She was a little minx.
Darling, absolutely darling.
:08:32
But you haven't had tea...
:08:34
We have, we have.
:08:35
Honestly, why isn't Gilberte
here for her at home?
:08:38
Her mind's never
on what she's doing.
:08:40
Pour me a drop of port.
:08:42
l take port at tea,
it's less debilitating.
:08:45
-You have an iron constitution!
-No, l'm less and less active.
:08:49
l feel absolutely wiped out.
:08:59
All right, Faradel,
l'm listening now.
