Thank you.
Warn them about the blackout,
and tell them, if I'm delayed,
Joseph will take care of them.
Okay.
- Trianon Hotel?
- No, just drop me at the Columbus Statue.
Medicine?
- Dear, you're the linguist.
- No, pas medicine.
Salesman?
This is Yeastrel.
Barmene.
Slippery Elm food.
- Selling?
- No, pour manger.
Health.
Marijuana?
Monsieur Smith, Madame Smith,
how very good to meet you.
Monsieur Brown has sent me.
- How do you do?
- Any help I can give?
This good man
doesn't seem to understand very well.
He seems to think we're selling marijuana.
Selling? Of course not.
I understand. For strictly personal use.
Just give him $5.
"I'm the Haitian flag. One and indivisible."
Signed Papa Doc, father of his people.
He lives for them, and they die for him.
Stop here.
Here.
My God, it's you!
It's really you.
- Three months.
- Three years.
Three decades.
Why did you take the boat?
Why not the plane?
Four wasted days.
I wanted to give you time
to read my letter and decide.
Decide what?
Whether you wanted to go on like this
with me.
Oh, you fool.
That's my answer.
What's yours?
Colonel Biche is going to know of this.
I'm here at his personal invitation.
Speak to him. He's here.
Where does your husband think you are?
Playing gin rummy, like three months ago.
- Does he believe you?
- I don't know.
He never asks questions.
My darling, what time is it?
I don't know. My watch has stopped.
Did he comfort you while I was away?
I can be faithful for a few months,
except in my dreams.
I was faithful, too.
In my way.
Don't tell me about your way.
Just be quiet. Be here.
And Angelito?
Oh, he notices everything.
Reports to his father?
Oh, my darling, children watch everything.
It's part of learning.
You wouldn't understand.
You've never had a child.
- Have you sold the Trianon?
- No.
Oh, I'm so glad.
Some day,
I'll need the money to follow you.
Follow me?
Ambassadors come and go.
Just in time for the bloody blackout.
Not very welcoming, is it?
Things were lively in your mother's time,
even though you weren't here
in those days.
Neither were the Tontons.
When shall I see you?
- I can't tomorrow.
- The day after, then?
Yes, if Angelito's better. He's not well.
I'm afraid he's caught a chill.
You see? There was no reason to fear.
Nothing has changed.
No, nothing.
if it weren't for Angelito.
Yes, I know.
Angelito's here to stay.
Joseph!
Joseph!
Joseph!
Joseph!
- Monsieur Brown?
- Joseph, where the hell have you been?
I've got guests who arrive in a minute.
My luggage was left in the hall.
The Minister, Monsieur Philipot,
