:16:00
We couldn't do better than
that in the Foreign Legion.

:16:03
Which is Beau?
:16:04
Oh, I am, sir.
:16:05
You have
a very steady hand.

:16:07
Well, I'm very glad
to have met you all.

:16:11
Goodbye.
:16:14
As soon as I get
old enough,

:16:16
I'm going to join
the Foreign Legion.

:16:18
That's exactly
what I was thinking.

:16:19
Me, too.
:16:22
But of course, we'd have
to leave Aunt Patricia.

:16:24
Oh.
:16:25
That's right.
:16:27
Oh, I suppose
we'll have to give it up.

:16:30
She'll always need some
men around to protect her.

:16:32
I like your family,
Patricia.

:16:34
Especially the Gestes?
:16:35
Yes. Why do you ask?
Everybody does.

:16:37
Who are they?
Orphans.

:16:39
Three young gentlemen
of fortune that I've adopted.

:16:42
And Augustus is Sir
Hector's heir, I suppose?

:16:45
Mmm-hmm. If Sir Hector leaves
him anything to inherit.

:16:47
Has he really managed
to go through everything?

:16:50
Only the sapphire is left.
:16:51
I'm sorry, Patricia.
:16:53
Oh, I don't mind for myself.
It's the children.

:16:56
I want to raise them and
give them a chance in life.

:16:59
I'm a little desperate
about that.

:17:00
And I suppose Sir Hector
will be a little desperate

:17:03
the next time
he comes home?

:17:04
Mmm. He has to be
desperate to come home.

:17:06
Incidentally,
before I go,

:17:07
may I see this fabulous
sapphire of Sir Hector's?

:17:10
I've been hearing about it
clear across the world.

:17:12
Of course.
:17:18
You know, I read this
in a book somewhere.

:17:20
Do you mean to tell me in the Foreign
Legion they read adventure stories?

:17:24
This gets
better and better.

:17:26
This is called
the Priests' Refuge.

:17:28
In Oliver Cromwell's time,
:17:30
the Brandons used
to hide them here.

:17:55
Hmm!
:17:56
Takes your breath away.
:17:58
That's the great-great-
grandfather of all sapphires.
