- I don't even know who she is.
- But I do!

:28:09
Papet, are you going?
:28:12
No, I'm rolling a cigarette.
:28:16
So, you want to marry her?
:28:19
Yes, but she won't have me.
:28:22
- Why not?
- She's pretty and I'm ugly.

:28:27
Has she got money?
:28:29
Not much.
:28:32
Is she healthy?
:28:33
Yes, she's as strong as a horse.
She's got good muscles.

:28:38
She could do a good job
on my carnations.

:28:42
- And she's educated.
- How do you know?

:28:46
She reads books for hours at a time.
:28:50
That sounds bad.
:28:52
I'm wary of a poor girl who reads books.
:28:56
Besides, a beautiful wife
may be fickle. Is she virtuous?

:29:01
Wild and pure as the driven snow.
She'd be a wonderful wife.

:29:06
I'd be happy as a king
but she wouldn't want me.

:29:10
No poor girl would reject a Soubeyran...
:29:14
unless she's mad.
:29:17
If she said yes, would you consent?
:29:21
I can't until I know who she is.
:29:24
Come on, you fool!
Open up and tell me!

:29:27
No! I can't open the door!
I've got to think.

:29:36
- Papet...
- Yes?

:29:38
I'll tell you, but you must swear
on the family name

:29:42
that when you hear her name
you won't say a word.

:29:46
- As you like.
- No! Swear to me!

:29:52
I swear on the name of the Soubeyrans.
:29:55
Good. Now I've got to decide.
