Since there is no
reconciliation, we proceed.
your backs to one another.
It may amuse you to know, monsieur,
I never believed you cheated at cards.
Maybe I don't have your sense of humour.
There's a lady who prefers
your attentions to mine.
I intend to simplify her choice.
Rachel?
Margot? No.
When I begin to count, you
will each take ten paces.
You will turn and fire
on the count of ten.
before the count is complete,
it will be my distasteful
duty to shoot him down.
- Good luck.
- Thanks.
One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven,
eight, nine, ten.
Fool. If he hadn't stepped aside,
I'd have hit him in the shoulder.
Many of us will be
sorry to see you hang.
Hang? They've never enforced
the laws against duelling before.
The son of Judge Beaubien
Most certainly he will have you arrested
and hanged before the week is out.
I'm sorry. It will take the
incentive out of duelling.
I wouldn't wanna spoil
it for the rest of you.
When one has proven himself
on the field of honour,
one cannot turn tail and run
like a common criminal, can one?
One can.
Paul Regret, cabin 39.
Well?
I sent you to do an errand, Amelung.
He's registered as Paul Regret,
cabin number 39. He has no luggage.
You could have met this handsome chap
without sending me to snoop out his name.
I think you just want to humiliate me.
I'll not need either
of you until morning.
13, black, odd. No winner.
- 23, please.
- 23 it is.
Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen.
Place your bets, please.
Five outside.
Nine inside. The winner,
nine. Nobody there.
- Place your bets, please.
- Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen.
King outside.
Six inside. Winner six. Guess
it isn't your night, sir.
23, red and high. A winner!
Madame! Madame has won.
- Thank you.
But the one value of my white hair
is that I may address beautiful women
without being thought presumptuous.
Will you favour an old
man with this waltz?
Thank you, but this dance is taken.
And here's the gentleman who has it.
Surely you remember we
have this dance, Mr Regret?
I have a poor memory, but not
for matters of utmost importance.
- Excuse us, sir.
- With envy, young man.
Thank you, Mr Regret. You
saved me from a dreary fate.
He is a darling, but I...
I am happy I was on the spot when
you found yourself in such difficulty.
How did you know my name?
That was fortunate. I heard
I dare say the salon
will be full of cigar
smoke and loud talk
about the price of cotton.
Salons usually are at this hour.
Too bad. I would like a glass of wine.
May I suggest my cabin?
Frankly, I prefer my cabin.
Shall we say number 127 in half an hour?
It wasn't fair of me to come here.
- Fair?
- I'm not worth the effort.
I haven't been lucky at the tables.
What do you take me for?
A liar, to start with. A beautiful
liar, but a liar nevertheless.
No waiter has so far
called me by my name.
I'm sorry, my dear. But when
you'll find the contents of my
pocket not worth your trouble.
- You think me a blackmailer?
- Or whatever.
Whatever your game is, the
trophy is not worth the chase.
- Look at my hand, please.
- It's very graceful.
The smallest stone in that ring
could buy and sell you, Paul Regret.
Why should I want money from you?
Experience has taught me to
look carefully at a gift horse.
Am I to believe you weighed, appraised and
selected me out of all the men on the boat?
