The Pink Panther Page #2

Her Highness will join you. A drink?

l'd like a brandy, thank you.

(door closes)

- Your Highness.

- Good evening, Sir Charles.

Any news from the police

about your dear little dog?

They expect l'll receive a ransom note.

l am deeply grateful

for what you tried to do.

Ma'am, it was nothing. Nothing.

- Thank you.

- Please sit down.

- Aren't you drinking?

- l don't drink.

Not ever?

l'm quite content with reality.

l have no need for escape.

l enjoy reality. lt's just that in my case

reality includes a good stiff belt.

- On the other hand, l don't smoke.

- lt's a nasty habit.

Here's to all those nasty little habits

that we hold so dear. Lechaim!

l beg your pardon?

Let's just say it means ''Your health,

and thank you for inviting me to dinner.''

lt's not often l have the chance

to dine alone with a beautiful princess.

l hate to disappoint you, Sir Charles,

but l'm afraid this isn't the night.

- But l understood that...

- We're having dinner, but not alone.

(chattering)

(Angela) Yoo-hoo!

At last! Hello. We've been through

icicles up to our you-know-whats.

Your Highness, l think it's just too

darling of you to invite me here tonight.

You've just made Cortina for me.

Hello, dear boy. Uh-uh-uh-uh.

Now, don't you move a muscle, darling.

lsn't he wonderful, Your Highness?

Such a magnificent sacrifice.

Good evening, sir.

(## slow dance music)

- May l have a cigarette, my darling?

- Yes, of course, my darling.

- There you are, my love.

- Thank you.

- Yes, sir?

- Scotch on the rocks.

That's funny.

Thank you.

- My pleasure.

- Thank you very much.

l'm looking for my uncle,

Sir Charles Lytton.

- Darling!

- May l get you some water?

- Hold your hands over your head.

- Yes. And bend forward.

- Ooh! Darling, l am sorry.

- Are you all right?

You all right, my darling?

- l'll be right back.

- Yes, darling.

Please.

She's got a cough in the throat, you know.

What do you think?

She turned out to be a man.

lt's true. lt's quite true.

Your Highness, you must

let me give you a party.

l can positively guarantee

it'll be a party to end all parties.

- l'm sure.

- Perhaps Her Highness has other plans.

On the contrary, it sounds like fun.

Will you include Sir Charles?

No. Charles is having a fling in Capri.

He has his own parties.

Yes. l've read about his parties.

They're wonderful. We call him the

Juggler. l've never known a man like him.

He can keep ten girls in the air at once

and make each one happy.

- Amazing. A contemporary Don Juan.

- That's it.

Ah, there's a difference. Don Juan was

forced to climb balconies and fight duels,

and, as l understand it,

to keep his women separate and apart.
