1:11:04
- Seventy-six.
- Mariette.
1:11:06
Yes, Gaston?
1:11:08
What would you say if you found
your safe had been robbed?
1:11:12
I wouldn't say anything.
I would act.
1:11:16
- Call the police?
- Instantly.
1:11:19
Mm-hmm.
1:11:22
But why talk about robbery
on a night like this?
1:11:25
You look beautiful.
1:11:27
Thank you.
1:11:31
- Mariette.
- Yes, Gaston?
1:11:36
You have been robbed.
1:11:39
For years.
1:11:41
And not a hundred thousand francs,
but millions.
1:11:44
And you know who did it?
Adolphe.
1:11:48
- Adolphe?
- AdolpheJ. Giron.
1:11:53
- And you expect me to believe that?
- Naturally not.
1:11:56
But I expect the police to believe it.
1:12:02
- No.
- Why not?
1:12:05
- He's a thief. He's a criminal.
- I don't believe it.
1:12:08
Then why are you afraid
to let me prove it?
1:12:11
It would be a terrible scandal,
wouldn't it?
1:12:14
- Giron?
- Yes, Giron.
1:12:16
Chairman of the board of directors
of Colet and Company.
1:12:19
Honorary president
of the Orphans' Asylum.
1:12:22
AdolpheJ. Giron, distinguished citizen.
1:12:25
Well, shall I call the police?
1:12:31
I see.
1:12:33
You have to be in the social register
to keep out of jail.
1:12:36
But when a man starts at the bottom
and works his way up,
1:12:39
a self-made crook, then you say,
1:12:41
"Call the police.
Put him behind bars. Lock him up."
1:12:44
Very well, madame.
1:12:46
I am Gaston Monescu.
1:12:49
The police will be delighted
to verify my identity.
