and fold back the rib cage.
This will reveal the contents
of the thoracic cavity.
The heart, gentlemen,
is a hollow muscle
composed essentially of a firm
ventricular mass
This pump
which gives forth
as much as it receives,
has come to be seen
as a symbol
of courage and generosity.
Does Mr. Wilson have
a comment?
No. In that case,
we may proceed.
Thank you!
Even in dealing with a corpse,
always be sure of the
cleanliness of your instruments.
It is said, gentlemen,
that the heart is the seat of
the emotions, the passions.
Indeed.
But experience shows that it is
the seat of our cares,
our sorrows.
Its only generosity lies
in the suffering it gives.
So, when we have cut the ribs,
separated the diaphragm
and folded back what is
commonly called the rib cage,
we can deliver our patient
from the source of her woes.
The doctor is a benefactor.
We will thus bring her relief.
Along with the heart...
No!
We'll remove despair
and the pain of love.
Gentlemen, we shall restore her
her pristine purity,
Even if it's a living person,
make sure your instruments
are perfectly clean.
Here, put this on!
Cover yourself.
Did she die?
Forget about the girl!
It's him, don't you see?
I had to leave the University,
and I joined the Austrian Army.
To fight.
But no one fights anymore.
The twin garrison is infamous.
Thanks to me.
People have told me all about
the trouble. The poor women.
All was well...
until that night.
Don't. It's Wilson!
You recognize me?
I'm flattered.
There were many of us
the other night.
It was dark,
and you were so busy.
Good evening, Mr Wilson.
- Is that Wilson?
- Be careful, Tonina.
He's made his reputation
from men...
not from us.
He loves parades, the theater,
dressing up.
He needs an audience.
But in private,
he puts on a poor show.
- Have you met him before?
- No... and I don't want to.
I hate wasting my time.
- Are you referring to me?
- You... you.
You are not the only
man alive, Wilson.
Are you taunting me?
Are you threatening me?
I'm challenging you.
Ace.
She loved cards. But I could
always keep my hand up.
I decided to teach her a lesson.
Court card!
Two hundred.
Double.
I'll see you.
Ace, Jack.
Wilson has lost.
Are you sure?
Ace, King.
I thought you were bluffing.
Bluff and window-dressing...
That's you, Wilson.
The card-player resembles
the lover.
He gets tired.
No staying power, my dear.
Court card.
Ace.
Will you accept my watch?
It has three jewels.
I'll see you, my dear.
Ace, King.
The same.
The game continues.
