Here you go.

I noticed you hadn't any left.

Thank you.

Good evening.

This is Agnes, my friend.

- Prince Michel...

- ...von Hoffenberg.

Of course.

- Good evening.

- Good evening.

I'm rarely recognized.

But you have a face

that's impossible to forget.

Have you just arrived?

I don't intend to

stay here too long.

- I think this is a little...

- Yes, that's true.

You think the same?

I couldn't help myself from

looking at you all evening.

I'm sorry.

No need to be sorry.

You remind me of someone.

The Princess of Edinburgh.

- Excuse me, Ines.

- Irene.

I'm sorry.

Don't mention it.

Maybe we can see each other later?

I have her portrait, painted by

Rembrandt, at my country house.

I hung it in the guest room.

I'd like to show it to you.

The resemblance is striking.

She was executed during the revolution.

Oh my God...

I'm so sorry.

The pain has passed.

Excuse me for a moment.

You're behaving like a rude bastard.

For the past hour you've been

going from one woman to the next.

What are you doing?

Who do you think you are?

Do you think a little

jewel is enough?

I'm sorry, Madeleine.

I don't give a damn

that you're sorry.

You told my friends you'll

bring us some champagne, so do it.

You have 2 minutes to bring it.

I'd be happy to help, but I can't.

What do you mean you can't?

I need to go to the hotel and

spend a few hours with this girl.

What are you talking about?

I need to do a favor.

I can't do otherwise.

Are you kidding me?

I'm warning you.

If you leave with that girl,

don't count on me, understand?

I'll leave the scooter at the

parking lot and the keys at reception.

There's nothing I can

do to stop you?

No.

I'm sorry.

Stop being so nice.

It's unbearable.

It seems that a man

like you can't be bought.

Even by me.

I'll be fine, don't worry.

You're not the first.

Thank you for approaching

things this way.

Do I have a choice?

You can keep the scooter.

You deserve it.

I'm sorry...

That was my ex mother-in-law.

The Baroness von Bosten.

She can't stand that

I talk to other women since...

Yes.

I know.

Don't hold it against her.

She's suffering because of it.

But I have to live on, right?

Yes, of course.

One must live on.

Life goes on.

Are you alright?

No...

Yes.

I want to...

I'd like to...

Well well.

Good evening, Jacques.

Good evening, Irene.

You see. I still

remember your name.

Are you alone?

As you can see.

What have you been doing?

I've been signing checks.

When did you arrive?

I arrived this morning.

I was dumped this evening.

Not all is lost.

It seems so.

I think I've already

forgotten her name.

Excuse me.

What did you say?

That I've already

forgotten her name.

Agnes.

You know her?

Small world.

Are you alright?

Yes. I'm fine.

Do you have any plans

for the coming days?

Do you have any plans?

Excuse me?

I have this impression

your thoughts are elsewhere.

And I don't like it.

Excuse me.

Pardon me.

It's the alcohol and the fatigue.

I'm falling asleep.

What were you saying?

I asked if you had any plans.

What are you plans

for the coming days?

Love.

I plan to make love.

Excuse me.

Excuse me, Jacques.

I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

I'm really sorry.

Prince?

What's going on?

What are you doing here?

I'm doing you a favor.

He's not a prince.

I can't believe it.

Excuse me.

Well...

It took you a while.

I did what I could.

I want to...

I'd like to...

Kiss you.
