Monte Carlo Page #5

Don't talk about money in any way. | In fact, don't talk at all.

I understand.

And remember, | the countess is very strict about this -

never flirt with chambermaids.

- I never do. | - Quite right.

But to avoid any future misunderstandings -

I am not a chambermaid.

Still, I - | I never do.

Now I will announce you to the countess.

Bring her in. | I am ready.

How do you do?

- How long have you been a hairdresser? | - Oh, a long time, madame.

I have served many, many ladies.

- Where did you work? | - At home.

I mean, uh, the - the ladies | always came to my house.

Oh, yes. Yes, of course. Yes.

- Uh, naturally, there'll be no more of that. | - I realize that.

You are in my employ now | and you will devote yourself entirely to me.

Only to you, Countess.

- And I hope it will not be a job for a day. | - That depends entirely upon you.

Then I'm sure it will be at least, uh - | a week.

Who knows? | Maybe for months.

Maybe for years.

Uh, who knows?

- By the way, what's your name? | - Rudolph.

- Rudolph? | - Yes. Rudolph.

Rudy!

I don't like that name. | I don't ever want to hear it again.

Oh, but don't worry. | It's not your fault.

Let's see. | I shall call you, um... Paul.

Just call me Paul.

Rudolph!

Yes, Countess?

Didn't I tell you your name was Paul? | If you ever answer again to Rudolph, I'll -

Hello? Yes? Who?

Who do you wish to speak to?

Rudolph?

Paul. For you.

Thank you, madame. | Pardon me, please.

Hello, this is...

Paul.

Paul!

No. Paul.

R-U-D-O-L-P-H.

Paul!

Yes! Paul is here too.

What we want to know is, | how are things going?

What? | You are not alone.

He's not alone!

You can't speak? | Oh, I understand.

Yes, well, I'll ask questions | and you just answer.

Yes.

Yes. Yes!

No.

Well, I hope so.

Good-bye. | See you tonight.

My servants | don't receive phone calls here.

- Please remember that. | - Quite right, Countess.

And please don't ever make engagements | without asking me first.

And you will not have | this evening off.

You will stay right here.

Thank you very much, Countess.

You're making yourself | much too prominent.

- Bags. | - Yes. All right. Yes.

Excuse me, madame. | My baggage has just arrived.

Well, don't unpack yet. | I'm not at all sure I'm going to keep you.

So far you've done nothing | but make me nervous.

Now I'd like to see | what else you can do.

Cut my hair.

Haircut a la Marotte.

The countess said "a la Marotte"?

Yes, yes. A la Marotte.

A la Marotte.

Oh! | A la Marotte.

Of course. | How silly of me.

A la Marotte.

And that's what you call a haircut? | Are you insane?

Yes, madame! Oh, Countess, | please forgive me, but I can't do it!
