1:26:01
Is this, by any chance,
going to be a confession?

1:26:04
-Yes.
-No, my IittIe VoIga boatman.

1:26:07
Have you forgotten
our First Commandment?

1:26:08
Never compIain, never expIain.
1:26:10
It's worked so often and so perfectIy
in the past, Iet's not break the ruIe.

1:26:14
PIease don't Iook so guiIty. Otherwise, I--
1:26:16
Swana, just this once,
I must ask you to Iisten to me.

1:26:21
AII right.
1:26:25
-I'm Iistening.
-I know you hate the obvious.

1:26:29
But do you mind if,
for the moment, I'm not the Ieast subtIe?

1:26:32
BrutaI frankness, if you insist.
1:26:35
There are 100 ways of approaching it...
1:26:38
but I feeI it can best be said
in one simpIe phrase.

1:26:42
I'm in Iove, Swana.
1:26:43
I thought it was something serious.
How couId you frighten me so?

1:26:48
It must be serious.
1:26:49
Not so Iong ago I'd have considered
such a statement juveniIe...

1:26:52
and rather middIe-cIass.
1:26:55
Now I can say it without a stammer,
without a bIush.

1:26:59
I'm in Iove, Swana.
1:27:00
But, Leon, this has the ugIy
sound of regeneration.

1:27:04
-I'm afraid that's what it is, Swana.
-AIways Iate.

1:27:07
Same oId troubIe, Leon.
Whether you take me to the opera...

1:27:10
or caII for me at a beauty shop,
you're never on time.

1:27:13
Now, when it's a question of your reform,
Iate again by about five minutes.

1:27:19
-What is this, Swana?
-Knowing the efficiency...

1:27:22
of the French air service,
I think I can safeIy guarantee...

1:27:25
that Madame Yakushova
has taken off for Moscow.

1:27:27
-Has done what?
-She's gone, Leon.

1:27:31
-You don't expect me to beIieve that?
-There's the teIephone.

1:27:35
If you caII the hoteI,
you'II find you have no 7:00 appointment.

1:27:48
Imagine. For once in our Iives
we were in Paris...

1:27:52
-and we never went to the EiffeI Tower.
-That's right.

1:27:56
They teII me it has a wonderfuI restaurant
on the second fIoor.
