Saratoga Trunk Page #3

let alone those two nags

a- pullin' it.

If you'll do me the honor

of riding in my carriage...

i'm driving a pair of

long-tailed bays to the runabout.

Brought them

all the way from texas,

and they're beauties, and

they're thoroughbreds, just like-

well, that sounds terrible,

but i don't mean to

compare you, ma'am, to a-

but if you'll allow me,

ma'am, l-

i'll, uh, i'll set down

this cup of coffee.

I ain't gonna let you

do it. Do you hear me?

I ain't gonna

let you do it.

Beautiful.

I think he's beautiful.

Ah! I'll

punish him.

Allez. Vite, vite.

I'll take him and lock

him up with the savages.

I'll lock him up

on bread and water.

So madame la comtesse

enjoys talking

to loutish cowboys?

I didn't talk to him.

He talked to me.

Even your aunt bess-

shut up! Do you

want me to slap you

right here

on the street?

I wish

i could die now.

Your mama made me promise

to take care of you,

but it's no use.

Common, common dirt!

Ah, shh.

If you please, pay

attention to your prayers,

not to someone

who ain't there.

I'm only looking

for those dulaines.

The dulaines don't wear 90-gallon hats.

Here we is, ladies-

the famous begue's.

All the quality eats here.

Whoa.

What are you

dressed up coachman for?

You look like

a monkey on a string.

We got horses,

haven't we?

Packed some of my paris

stuff from home.

I'll fix up these

nags yet.

Splendid, cupidon.

I'll tell you what, it's

too late for begue's-

oh, no. We ain't

gonna drive around

to be seen and followed

by that texas.

Wait here.

Pay the man

and come on, cupid.

And if a cowboy in

a white hat comes along,

we ain't here.

It would

serve you right

if he had cupidon brought

into court as a billy goat.

Not for him-courtrooms.

I know the looks.

Probably wanted

in texas himself

and skipped out with

somebody's carriage and horses.

Oh, angelique, don't

let's quarrel anymore.

I meant it to be

such a happy day.

All right, baby,

we don't quarrel,

but just you keep your mind

on what you came out for.

And remember,

20 years ago,

your mama walked in here

like a queen.

Bonjour, madame-

but... no.

For a moment i thought

you were-

but, of course,

it isn't possible.

I've heard my mother speak

of you often, monsieur begue.

They say i resemble her.

I'm la comtesse de trignonai

du chenfrais.

Of course.

Of course.

This way,

if you please.

Oh, i am so sorry, madame.

This table is reserved

every sunday morning

for the family of dulaine.

Splendid.

They'd be delighted.

A relative,

you know.

I want everything that

you're famous for-

you and madame begue.

All the delicious things

mama used to describe

to me in paris.
