Well, everybody join with me.
We sing together, huh?
- Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.
You want more? You do?
Well, aren't you wonderful?
Wait. Don't go away.
I'll be right ba-
I'll be right back
with the luscious Colette.
Boy, it's a great audience.
Best yet.
- They love you.
- And what about you?
- I love you too.
- Well, give me a kiss.
- No. Turn around.
- Not till you give me a kiss. Okay.
- You know something?
- What?
Gapeaux will be moving us
up to the Terrace Room soon. The big show.
- He's crazy if he doesn't.
- Don't say that. He is crazy.
- Hurry up. Come on.
- All right. Thank you.
Come. Duran is landing any minute.
We've got Nice on the television. Come on!
Oh, it's Duran!
Come on. Come with me.
Duran is landing. Come with me.
- Okay. Ready?
- Wait a second, lassie.
- There is a wee spot on my kilt here.
- Well, I'll fix that.
Stop it! You tickle.
- Hey, we're on.
Watch it, Mac.
- What-
Hey! Wait a minute.
What's going on in there?
- It is Duran. He's landing.
- Duran! Let's go and see!
Huge crowds have gathered
to welcome the nation's hero...
Capitaine Henri Duran.
Not since the arrival
of Lindbergh...
has a flight created
so much excitement.
When his magnificent plane,
the Victory, touches the ground...
he will have broken the round-the-world
nonstop flight record...
by more than 12 hours,
a great, great achievement.
You can feel the mounting
tension of the crowd.
Is he gonna land in all that fog?
Jack, don't be so vain.
Put on your glasses so you can see something.
- Ah, it is he!
Just listen to that crowd roar!
And now, on the platform,
the distinguished committee of high officials...
waits to receive
the great capitaine.
Even the air minister is here
to pay him honor.
In just a moment now,
Capitaine Duran will appear.
He has been at the controls
for more than two days...
and, without sleep,
he must be exhausted.
- Bravo!
The first to greet the capitaine...
are Philippe Labrix
and Louis Forel...
his associates in the manufacture
of these magnificent planes.
We have been told that Air Europa
has given them a contract for 50 of them.
Hey, Colette. Doesn't he look familiar to you?
Kind of like somebody we know?
- Mmm-
- Huh? Huh?
You know, he looks much like you!
That's what I thought, too,
except I didn't want to be the one to say it.
- Good-looking chap, isn't he?
Aha! Here is Madame Duran...
the beautiful wife of the capitaine.
Oh, no, no. Sorry.
That is not Madame Duran.
It is Elena Petrovna,
the ballet dancer.
Ah, now we have Madame Duran.
A situation, no?
No. No, sorry again.
That is Marilyn Turner,
Wait, wait! Let us hope that this
is Madame Duran!
Ah, oh, yes. There is no doubt.
Capitaine Duran. Capitaine, please.
Would you kindly say a few words
to the television audience?
- Congratulations, Capitaine!
- Did you have any trouble, Capitaine?
- What did you think about while
you were making this flight?
- Will you give us a statement?
- I would be delighted.
- The whole world is waiting to hear you.
My dear friends,
thank you very much.
I am deeply moved
by this demonstration.
I, uh- I would like to say more,
but I'm sure you will excuse me.
I am really so very tired.
All I would like now
is a bottle of champagne, and after that...
I would like
to go to bed for a week.
Who will join me in cheering my brave comrades
who have made this achievement possible?
- Bravo.
