PIERRE:
Your Majesty, I know it is a... a
festive time, but before --
KING LOUIS:
The blue sash. No, the burgundy!
PIERRE:
... before the party begins --
KING LOUIS:
The party has already begun -- so
why are you delaying me?
PIERRE:
We do not wish to delay you,
Majesty, but... as your advisors, we
feel it is our -- our --
CLAUDE:
... our duty.
PIERRE:
Yes! It is our duty to let you
know... there are riots in Paris.
LOUIS:
Riots? My people live in the
world's most beautiful city, their
king has the grandest palaces on
earth. Why should they feel
anything but pride and contentment?
PIERRE:
Well yes, of course, Majesty, and
I'm sure they are content... except
that... well, they are starving.
LOUIS:
Sometimes the poor do grow hungry.
But why would they riot about it?
As he says this, a replica of the Matterhorn made of fruits
and meringues is carried past the window by a team of chefs.
PIERRE:
Majesty... We have more than enough
food set aside for your birthday
celebration next week. If we
distributed some of that, we would
have time to gather more before --
LOUIS:
Aramis! I have been expecting you!
(to the tailors)
We are satisfied, that will do.
The tailors and advisors withdraw as Aramis -- still in his
simple priest's robe -- strides forward and bows to the kind.
ARAMIS:
Your birthday celebration, your
Majesty?
LOUIS:
Next week. This is a mere garden
party -- and I wish to join it, so I
will be brief. I am experiencing
resistance from the Jesuits.
ARAMIS:
Well... perhaps you should speak
with them, your Majesty.
LOUIS:
I have demanded it -- and common
priests present themselves! Can you
imagine the arrogance? Common
Jesuit priests try to act as my
equals, and they refuse to reveal
the names of anyone else in their
order! No one can keep secrets like
the Jesuits can, and the identity of
their leader is the darkest secret
they hold. Even the Pope himself
does not know who leads the Jesuit
Order in France! He suspects the
Governor General of Jesuits, whoever
he is, is angling to become Pope
himself.
ARAMIS:
How can I serve you in this?
LOUIS:
Perhaps you can find out who this
secret leader of the Jesuits is.
You are now a priest, but you were
once a Musketeer, serving the throne
of France, a throne ordained of God.
Can you accept this mission, and
keep it private?
ARAMIS:
If I find out the identity of this
Jesuit rebel. I will kill both him
and the man who told me.
LOUIS:
Once a Musketeer, always a
Musketeer, eh?
