:26:00
We of Spain should be
highly flattered, gentlemen.
:26:04
And our lovely princess, Maria?
:26:06
Has already left the Swiss
convent, traveling incognito.
:26:10
By now she should be well across France.
:26:12
Oh? And if the unfortunate young
lady were to die on French soil...
:26:17
who but the French could
be held responsible, eh?
:26:20
There's only one answer
our stupid king could give.
:26:23
You mean war? What else?
:26:26
During a war anything can
happen. Thrones can topple.
:26:29
One of determination and
vision might seize the reins...
:26:32
and... rule Spain.
:26:38
It will be done, General.
I didn't question it.
:26:43
I have a great capacity
for gratitude, amigos.
:26:47
I shall remember you.
:26:58
How tragic that one so young and
lovely as our Princess Maria...
:27:03
must die, hmm?
:27:12
Tonya Clara, what do you suppose he's like?
:27:15
Handsome, gay and kind.
:27:18
He's probably a very nice young
man. Of course, he won't be.
:27:22
He'll be rich and fat and bald with
as many chins as he has chateaus.
:27:26
You mustn't think of these
things. I know, I know.
:27:29
This is a marriage of political
expedience. You are the princess of Spain.
:27:33
I am also a woman. But first,
you are the princess of Spain.
:27:41
Is it going to take all
day to fix that harness?
:27:43
I'm doing the best I can
with what I have to work with.
:27:46
Hurry up. We don't want
to spend the night here.
:27:50
More delays. What a journey.
:27:53
Broken harness, miserable heat, dust!
:27:57
And on top of it, this
preposterous masquerade!
