At that time, he wanted to be a doctor
and not a politician.
- Where's the knife?
- Oh, here.
Oh, yes. I forgot.
He was left-handed.
Where can we take him?
There are plenty of deserted homes now
this side of Port-au-Prince.
He was always very careful of his clothes.
What a beautiful morning.
- Like a top, sir.
Joseph, one of your rum punch specials,
je vous prie.
I have come to read
About me?
Yes, it's in my column,
"Personalities in Port-au-Prince."
I will translate for you.
Of course,
it sounds more spiritual in French.
"Haiti, always ready
to welcome distinguished visitors
"to her warm bosom,
greets with special ardor Mr. Smith,
"the famous presidential candidate
"narrowly defeated
by Mr. Truman in 1948."
Oh, come, come, Monsieur Pierre.
I had no chance of winning.
It was only a gesture.
Oh, Mr. Smith, you are too modest.
May I help you?
Oh, no, no, no, it's quite all right.
It's quite all right.
I hope you mentioned Mr. Jones.
He's quite a character.
Major Jones. That is a little problem.
There has been a contretemps,
and Major Jones has been detained.
- Who by?
- The police.
There must be some mistake.
Tell me,
have you arranged my appointment
with the Minister for Social Welfare?
Surely, Monsieur Smith.
It will be at 11:00 this morning.
- Then I'll bring the matter up with him.
- That is a good idea.
You'll find Monsieur Jules Csar
a very intelligent man.
Monsieur Philipot, you mean.
Hlas, poor Monsieur Philipot
is no longer with us.
He has passed on.
Passed on?
His body was discovered this morning.
Breakdown.
Pressure of responsibilities.
The President is said to be deeply grieved.
The Minister will see you in a few minutes.
The Secretary of State
is leaving for New York
to make a protest at the United Nations.
What about?
Two rebels have been captured
in the mountains
in possession
The President should be pleased.
It's probably
the first American machine gun
he's seen in a long time.
They have found it
much too rusty to work,
and some small but vital parts
are missing.
Monsieur Pineda.
Good day, Your Excellency.
Of course, you know Monsieur Brown.
Brown? No.
My wife has told me
In fact,
it's strange we've never met before.
Well, we've played
a lot of gin rummy together.
- Your wife is a very good player.
- Really?
I had hoped that she would bring you over
to the embassy one day.
Well, I've only recently come
from New York.
Tomorrow evening, we have a few friends
coming over after dinner.
- You know Dr. Magiot, of course?
