You are an awful man.

Do you think a man can change?

Yes.

For the worse.

I think you're as awful as I am.

I am.

That's why we should never be enemies.

We should always be friends...

...good friends.

-More than that. -Lovers?

Even more.

You're not proposing marriage?

What if I were?

But that's wonderful.

Wonderful.

Tell me.

Which of us would betray the other first this time?

I'm sorry.

I've missed you so much.

I still love you, you know?

Isn't it lonely when there's no one to share your secrets with?

Yes, it is.

Would you like to share my latest secret?

Yes.

Come.

I've explained to Monsieur de Danceny...

...that Cecile lost her virginity in your arms...

...but he didn't believe me.

So since you happen to be here...

...would you mind telling him about it yourself?

I want that.

-But the same money... -No! That!

Yes, sir.

I'm sorry, monsieur. Madame de Volanges...

-What? -I'm not supposed to let you in, monsieur.

Strict orders.

No.

No, monsieur, seriously. I could lose my position.

-Who is it? -lt's Valmont.

We're leaving now.

We have to go now, right now.

Nobody must recognize you. We're traveling together as two men.

You understand? We're going as two men. In disguise.

And Danceny is already waiting.

He's in the country. It's very far.

-We have to go now, right now. -No, he's not.

Yes, he is.

No, he's not.

Vicomte.

I thought it was time that Cecile knew the truth.

Monsieur de Valmont, you will leave this house immediately.

Monsieur de Valmont?

I am Baron de Segur, and this is Chevalier de Malpoix.

Chevalier de Danceny expects you at dawn tomorrow at this location.

We are his witnesses. We count on your discretion.

I'll meet him there.

You!

Yes, you.

And him.

Him!

And him!

Sit!

Sit!

Good boy.

Sir.

Sir, are you sure you feel up to a duel?

Sir.

Gentlemen.

Sir, where are your witnesses?

Monsieur le Duc, will you step up, please?

Monsieur le Baron.

Hurry up. Come on, don't be afraid.

Hurry up.

Sir.

It would be embarrassing for me to fight you in your condition.

So what do we do, send for our harps?

If you offer me your apology, I'd gladly forgive you.

My apology?

You want my apology?

After everything I've done for you...

...you will forgive me.

You...

...defend yourself.

Madame.

Madame, can I tell you a secret?

A secret that I haven't told anyone yet.

Yes, my child.

I think I'm pregnant.

I'm quite sure that I am.

Is it...

...Valmont's?

My angel.

My sweet angel.
