:59:02
opiates to quell his temper,
:59:05
restraints to chasten him
when he misbehaves.
:59:09
Perhaps, if you could
buttress your entreaties
with the means to oblige them-
:59:13
I'm not a wealthy woman.
:59:16
You have a pension,
haven't you ?
:59:18
- From the sale of his books ?
- It's tainted money, Doctor.
:59:24
- What a beautiful thought.
- What thought is that ?
:59:26
That the ill-gotten funds
born of his degeneracy...
:59:32
might now affect his salvation.
:59:36
It's beyond perversity...
:59:39
that honor should carry
a price tag.
:59:44
Imagine...
:59:46
old friends deigning
to kiss your hand again.
:59:55
"Why, Marquise,
enchanted to see you again.
:59:59
Welcome back from your long,
dark descent into the abyss of infamy."
1:00:03
Don't toy with me, Doctor.
1:00:09
Now is the time
to secure your epitaph:
1:00:14
"The benevolent Marquise,
1:00:16
Chariton's most revered
philanthropist"...
1:00:23
or "Satan's bride."
1:00:25
Rest assured, Marquise,
1:00:28
your generosity will speed your husband
ever faster towards a cure.
1:00:32
The Peruvian marble,
without question.
1:00:38
- I'm eternally in your debt.
- And I in yours, Marquise.
1:00:42
Doctor, can I impart to you
his cruelest trick ?
1:00:47
Of course.
1:00:49
Once, long ago...
1:00:52
in the folly of youth...
1:00:55
he made me love him.
