:46:01
Just as you said...
:46:04
only greater by far!
:46:06
l must apologize. l had an urgent call.
A revolution in my country.
:46:11
Also, some of my mines are flooded.
l must go back soon.
:46:14
l couldn't bear to leave Paris
without consulting you about this.
:46:22
-Señor, it is not for sale.
-But you said you might.... You said you....
:46:27
lt is not for sale!
:46:29
-Goodbye.
-l can see the hand of a master!
:46:34
Goodbye. Adiós.
:46:40
Preposterous little man!
:46:41
l met him at the auction
when my Cézanne...
:46:43
fetched such a stunning price.
:46:47
Why not? lt was worth a stunning price.
Even more!
:46:51
This will not be a scandal, but a triumph!
Let the experts come pouring in!
:46:55
Let them bring their X-rays,
their microscopes...
:46:58
even their nuclear weapons if they like.
:47:04
Remember what happened
with van Meegeren...
:47:07
and all those forged Vermeers?
He drove the experts crazy.
:47:10
He won every round, fought them,
and then emerged the victor.
:47:13
He finally painted one last Vermeer
and even that was a triumph.
:47:17
The guards marveled at the brilliance
of his brushwork.
:47:20
Even his fellow inmates
couldn't believe their eyes.
:47:23
And the governor of the prison, he....
:47:46
What's the number of the Hotel Ritz?
:47:49
Opera 2830.
