my family...

...I too have an important

announcement to make.

Next week,

I have an auction in London.

It will be the finest of my career

and the very last.

They say he's been seen

recently in female company.

- Who? Virgil?

- Yes.

It's finally come home to him that the

worst sexual perversion is chastity.

How is it going

onstage for the last time?

I've never felt better. There's

a whiff of anticipation in the air.

All my colleagues

have come to see me off.

That's nice of them.

This affection is because they won't

have to put up with me anymore.

Anyhow, I'm happy, Claire.

I just wish you were here.

Me too.

But I'm not ready to travel yet.

I got dizzy in the car yesterday.

Don't let it get to you. We have

all the time in the world to travel.

- We're ready, Mr. Oldman.

- I'm coming.

Have you heard

from our young friends?

Constantly.

I'm never left on my own.

Good. Give them my love.

- I can hear you've got to go.

- Yes.

- But I can't wait to get back home.

- Good luck, my darling.

12,100,000.

Any more?

12,300,000.

Any advance?

12,500,000 on the telephone.

Any more?

All done at 12,500,000.

Sold for 12,500,000.

Ladies and gentlemen, I thank you.

- Good to see you.

- Thank you. Not a bad price.

Can I say hello to you in public?

Oh, Billy.

You were fantastic, my friend! I'm

happy for you. I'm going to miss you.

You say it like

we'll never meet again.

Of course we will.

But I'm feeling nostalgic

thinking about all our exploits.

- You'll get over it.

- Virgil?

To remind you of

what a great artist I could've been

if only you'd believed in me,

I've sent you one of my paintings.

I promise I won't burn it.

Claire.

Claire, I'm back!

Hello?

- Have you seen Miss Claire?

- No, sir.

Claire?

Where are you?

Claire?

Mr. Oldman,

she must have gone out.

It was the same yesterday.

Sarah and Robert came to get her,

then came back for lunch.

Alright.

"There is always

something authentic

concealed in every forgery."

I couldn't agree more.

That's why I'll miss you, Mr. Oldman.

"There is always something

authentic

concealed in every forgery."

I couldn't agree more.

That's why I'll miss you, Mr. Oldman.

"There is always something

authentic

concealed in every forgery."

I couldn't agree more.

That's why I'll miss you, Mr. Oldman.

"There is always something

authentic

concealed in every forgery."

I couldn't agree more.

That's why I'll miss you, Mr. Oldman.

"There is always something

authentic

concealed in every forgery."

I couldn't agree more.

That's why I'll miss you, Mr. Oldman.

"There is always something

authentic concealed in every..."

Good morning, Mr. Oldman.

We have visitors today.

Isn't this nice?

Look who's come to see you!

How are you, Mr. Oldman?

I've brought your mail,

some newspapers

and a few magazines.

A few days ago, they brought

some furniture to the villa opposite.

Did you notice?

I think so,

but I don't see much from in here.

Ask her.

Claire?

Listen to what

this gentleman wants to say.

Yes.

And the day after,

other workmen came

and took everything away again.

The day after?

In 18 months,

three deliveries and three removals.

I was here a while ago.

- Do you remember?

- Nine.

- What do you mean?

- You've been here nine times.

Today makes 10.

I was wondering if you saw

a woman leave the villa.

Medium height, light hair,

a bit pale?

- Yes.

- That time was 231.

Are you sure?

Then another six.

In a year and a half,

I saw her go out 237 times.

What did I say?

She's a phenomenon,

remembers everything.

It's not possible.

You were at the villa 63 times.

36 during the day and 27 at night,

excluding the night

of the accident.

- One, four, four.

- One, four, four?

The telephone number

for the ambulance.

The villa is free now.

If you're interested,

I'll get you a good deal.

- Who owns it?

- Me.

But I don't know what to do with it.

I often rent it out to cinema people.

Cinema people?

For the past two years,

it's been taken by the engineer

who does the lift

that takes me up to my house.

He's really nice, that boy.

He can do anything.

There's nothing he can't fix.

And he's always kissing me.

Bringing me flowers.

The Paris Express

is now arriving at platform seven.

Your attention, please.

The Berlin-Prague Arrow

is running 40 minutes late

due to fog on the line.

Come in, sir.

We furnished it

exactly as you requested.

And tomorrow, your trunks

will be delivered.

And later, I'll pass by

with a copy of your contract.

If there's anything else,

please don't hesitate to call.

Oh, Virgil.

If anything should happen to us,

I want you to know that I do love you.

Are you on your own, sir?

No. I'm waiting for someone.
