- I'm sure she's coming, Richard.

- Mmm.

I don't think so, Pen.

Thanks, anyway.

I don't understand.

What is the Eye of the Rainbow?

It's a diamond that we stole.

But first we had to kidnap the Texans, scuba

to the chateau and break into a wedding.

- You stole a diamond?

- Yes.

- I'm not gonna make it.

- Yes, you will.

It's Diamond Dave.

He hasn't changed a bit.

- Don't take less than ten.

- Right you are.

- I just don't get it.

- What, my love?

How you know all these people?

- Who?

- Well, Diamond bloody Dave.

- Oh, you know, way back.

- No, I don't know, Jerry.

I don't know about Saigon

or Guam or the Foreign Legion.

- Or even Diamond bloody Dave. I really don't.

- It's all right. Calm down.

No, I won't calm down.

Who are these people, Jerry?

These contacts? All that metal

in your body? This past life?

I thought I knew you.

I thought we were the same.

Oh, Pen.

I'm more than the sum of my parts.

- What does that mean?

- I've got no idea.

But what I do know

is that I love you.

Always have, always will. OK?

- OK.

- Yeah!

- Got 15.

- Bloody hell.

You can literally go anywhere

from here, can't you?

Well, we've got a briefcase full of cash.

Penelope!

There's one back to London

in 50 minutes.

No, I don't think we should get that one.

- Kate!

- Hey-hey!

Listen, what do you think about...

I don't know, maybe doing a bit of

travelling before we head home?

Travelling?

- Well...

- Stupid idea, right?

Yes.

A crazy... daft... stupid...

but brilliant idea.

- Yeah?

- Yeah. Why the hell not?

- What have we got to lose?

- Apart from our dignity?

Either way, it's worth investigating.

Definitely. Let's investigate.

Would you see

that the relevant people get this?

It would be an honour, my friend.

I've, er... taken a bit out.

You can stash the rest under the mattress.

Don't worry, old pal. We've got a

safe house built under the stairs.

- We do?

- Yeah.

Bon voyage, my old friends.

- I'll feed the cat.

- Oh, thank you.

- Look after yourselves.

- We will.

Thank you.

- Come along, Jerry.

- Be very, very naughty.

- It's is very heavy, Jerry.

- Hey-hey!

- Come on, my love.

- I say...

Oh... yes.

Merci.

Come on.

Come on!

Oh, yew!

Right. Yaw!

Hey-hey-hey!

So, what next? Hmm?

A wander around the Marais?

Hmm, that would be nice.

But... I was thinking of something

a little more adventurous.

Adventurous? Marvellous.

When are we leaving?

What about right now?

OK?

You see, I...

I know a man.

I know a man with a boat.

- Oh, you do, do you?

- Yes.

Yes? What?

Where? No! This?

Oh, my God!

She's beautiful.

- Kate, you did it. You did it!

- I did it!

- You bought us a boat!

- I did it!

Don't fall in.

Don't fall in the Seine.

Oh, my God, she's gorgeous!

She is gorgeous.

You are gorgeous!

I love you!
