THE MILLION POUND NOTE
Once upon a time, when Great Britain was very rich ...
that in the armored cameras of the Bank of England ...
there was more gold than in any another part of the world.
"It is safe...", I used to say people ...
"Sure as the Bank of England. "
Here you are, Mr. Montpelier.
I hope you do not disappoint its prosaic design.
On the contrary, I think of great beauty.
A great joy.
Perm tame, Oliver.
Good appearance, good touch ...
It's all good!
And there's only one like this ...
issued in connection with the Foreign Credit.
Yes, we read it. It was what gave us the idea.
Idea?
Yes, I suppose it seems strange ...
that we need a sum So big on a single ticket.
It is certainly something unusual.
I guess it will be for a transaction.
And very important, Right, Roderick?
Do we tell Mr. Garratt?
You do not leave me an alternative.
You see Mr. Garratt, my brother and I want ...
this beautiful, exquisite and only piece of paper ...
for a bet.
A bet? Have you said a bet?
A very important one
Gentlemen, they surprise me.
I'm surprised the end to who want that ticket.
I'm surprised they call it "A piece of paper"
Let them catch your attention about the texture.
"I promise to pay the bearer of this ticket ...
the sum of one million pounds. "
This Consulate does not receive funds of the US government UU ...
to help the Americans needy in London.
What a pity!
I thought that he had come to the right place.
That does not mean that we do not want to help.
We could find him a bunk in a merchant ...
and could work to pay the ticket.
Could not you find work here?
Well, if you want to go back inside One week, try to inform me.
A week is a long time.
If I got money for endure a couple of days ...
I would find work myself.
We can make a small loan If you guarantee that you will return it.
Can you offer us any guarantee?
I have a head about the shoulders and a pair of hands.
If you trust me, that is a guarantee.
That is not a guarantee!
Many people pass by here asking for similar things.
If we made an exception we would not know when to stop.
If you want, I will introduce myself to you every day.
I'm sorry is not possible.
But for a chel n I could enter in the Anglo-American Society.
So I would be in contact with people that could help you
Thinking it well, it will be better Let me fix myself.
Well, that's up to you, sir. Come back here if you do not have luck.
Yes, I will.
- Can I get one? - Of course.
Sorry, they are not there anymore
Thank you.

Sit down, Mr. Adams.
Thank you.
- Are you American, Mr. Adams? - Yes, from New England.
Do you know London well?
Absolutely. This is the first time I've come.
I wonder, if you would care that we asked him some questions.
Go ahead!
Can I ask you? What are you doing in this country?
- And what are your plans? - Let's go by parts.
I can not say I do not have plans. I am looking for a job.
Actually, I'm in Great Britain accidentally.
How is that?
See, in my country I have a small boat.
Only four meters ago, but I had a great time
Four weeks ago, on Saturday ...
I was sailing out of the bay and ...
Well, continue.
Where was he?
Sailing out of the bay.
Oh, yes!
Sailing towards the center a strong gale of the west.
I did the only thing I could and I let myself be carried by him all night.
The next morning, I was about to give up on lost ...
when a brigantine rescued me.
- Did he come to England with the brig? - Exactly.
I paid for the passage working without charge.
That incident explains my deplorable appearance, sirs.
- Do not worry about that. - It is a big advantage.
I'm afraid I do not understand.
Tell us, Mr. Adams, What was he doing before?
Work in a shipping company.
I must suppose, gentlemen, that you. Could you offer me some work?
Patience, Mr. Adams, patience.
If it is not an indiscreet question, Do you have money?
In fact, my account is at zero
What luck, Roderick! What luck!
It will seem lucky to you. but I do not think so.
If this is some kind of joke, I do not find it funny.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going.
Please, do not leave, Mr. Adams.
Do not think that we are insensitive, although my brother does not have much tact.
Oliver, give him the letter.
That same thing was about to say.
The letter!
The letter.
- For me? - For you
No, you must not open it! Not yet!
You must open it ... at 2.
Not a moment before.
- That's ridiculous. - It's not ridiculous, inside there is money.
Well, listen, I do not need charity.
The only thing I want It is an honest job.
If you can tell me ...
We value your honesty, Mr. Adams. That's why we give you the letter.
James, join Mr. Adams.

Ah!
Do you think it's authentic?
Ask Mr. Clements.
- Sr. Clements! - What happens?
Take a look at this.
Do you think it is authentic?
Only have been issued two bills like this one.
In any case, It is very difficult to be false.
Why?
I would call attention too much and no forger wants that.
But look at the owner, He looks like a beggar.
I would say that he is a millionaire eccentric
An eccentric millionaire!
And you've put him in a corner! Go see him right now!
I'm sorry, sir, but I can not change it.
It's the only thing I have.
Oh, please, do not worry!

You are very kind!
Amable? The kind one is you

Mr. Reid says to get him out behind and fast.
I know what I do. I have eyes, do not I?

Oh, he's the best, sir considering everything!
- Your size is a bit difficult, sabe? - Yes, it's true.
It will serve me for the moment. I'll take it.

I would prefer not to pay him now, if you do not mind.
I would like to open an account and pay within a month.
See, is that ...
I do not have any money ...
We are already!
I suppose a gentleman like you only carry large bills.
Listen, son, me in your place ...
I would not judge strangers for the clothes they wear.
I do not want to create problems with a big ticket.
I do not want to offend but ...
What makes you think we can not change a big ticket?
The truth is that we can.
Then...
no problem.
What's up? What happens? What happens?
I was waiting for the change.
Let's go, Tod, give him the change! Come on!
"Change, sir?
Change!
I could be the one I saw Wednesday in the newspaper?
Or was it Thursday?
I remember that I thought that never I would have the luck to touch a ticket like that.
You're an idiot, Tod, an idiot!
Bring the gentleman to this part of the store!
Pensar that we never try with millionaires!
Take off your jacket, sir! It's to throw in the trash!
Call Jack, Arthur and William!
Allow me ...
Over here, sir.
It looks perfect!
We did it for the maharaj of Halifax!
It has a constitution very similar.
A centimeter of sleeves!
- The ties, Mr. Reid. - I said the news of Maclesfield.
Morning in the morning we will start doing it.
You'll need a morning suit, one to dress and one for the opera.
Wait a minute, I do not need so many suits. I have come to buy one.
Thank you.
Thirty-five.
I can not spend the season without them.
30 suits is the minimum. Lord Reddington becomes 48.
Adjust the neck from behind.
I can not give you so many.
I would have to wait indefinitely the payment.
Indefinitely? That is little.
Eternally, Mr. Adams!
- The robes, Mr. Reid. - Thank you.
Puck the front a little.
What about a cycling suit, Mr. Adams?
It is the last cry. And, of course, there's Ascot.
I'm not going to do cycling and I will not go to Ascot either.
- I like the navigation. - The sport of kings!
Something very appropriate for a character like you
He believed that the sport of kings they were the races.
It should be the navigation. Shake the waist a little.
- Take note, a costume! - Take note.
- Leggings, Mr. Reid. - Thank you.
And one point more waist.
It is a pride for us ...
see a man of his eminence properly dressed.
Otherwise, it would be an inconvenience for you and detrimental to me.
The other ties!
I'll have it ready tomorrow.
In agreement. Now he will put this on me again.
Oh, God, what a humiliation!
But, I suppose I have no choice.
Your address, Mr. Adams?
I do not have an address I'm changing neighborhood.
Accept an advice and go to the Bumbles.
What is the Bumbles?
The ideal place, modest, quiet and discreet.
Fortunately I have a relative in the direction. Give it to me.
Really?
Really?
Really?
Really?
Thank you very much, Reid! I'm very grateful.
- What suite of the 1st. floor is free? - None, sir.

Remind reception staff and the goalkeepers of the two innings.
Ah, the bridal suite!
How much does he pay his bill the Duke of Frognal?
Six months, Mr. Lloyd.
- I'll put you up. - Yes, yes.
Prepare the suite immediately.
Ask for fresh flowers, roses, carnations ...
I want you to lend a lot attention to what I am going to say.
I'm waiting in any moment to Mr. Henry Adams.
He is eccentrically dressed, Do you understand?
Not like regular customers.
But, as far as you're concerned ...
he is so properly dressed as an admiral of the fleet.
Of course, you will be greeted with the discretion that gives Bumbles fame.
It turns out that it is an American millionaire.
Go back to your posts and spy him.
I assure you, Excellency, which is totally for your convenience.
The room is much more quiet at night.
They did not bother me at night since I arrived here.
And sometimes I would like it!
The room was previously occupied by Mr. Howard.
I do not know him
This is where I am and here I will stay.
What does this mean?
Get out of here everyone! Outside!
Go ahead! I assure you that this is provisional!
Provisional? A horn!
Naturally, you do not have to bother to pack.
This is intolerable! Give me, what does this mean ?!
If your Excellency considers all the aspects of the transfer ...
I'm sure I'll appreciate it.
Naturally there will be a slight reduction.
A reduction! How it has to be!
- Will she come too? - That's the Governor's business.
Like the room it's below the servants' ...
You will be free to practice his musical inclinations.
Really?
Tell me the truth, Lloyd, Who will come?
Come on, tell me, I can not be deceived.
Mr. Henry Adams, Excellency, an American
An American?
An American millionaire, Excellence.
Does he mean that American money ...
means more than the name of an English?
I will not tolerate it!
This country is going to disaster.
Wait a second.
Good evening, sir.
Permit me
Over here, sir. They wait for you.
Please.
I'm glad, thanks.
Oh! Excuse me.
Good evening, sir. Good afternoon.

Rec jalas, Parson! Rec jalas!
In the Old Continent, what more we like is the sense of humor.
Over here, sir.
I apologize, sir. I hope there are no damages.
If you want to put them in your suitcase I'll have them uploaded to the suite.

The Director is waiting for you.

Mr. Adams, a million apologies.
There has been a miserable misunderstood.
Impostor!
-Parsons, you surprise me!
Maybe he has the goodness to leave.
I said leave.
If you want to sign in the registry?
Wait, what's going on here?
An error of a goalkeeper. From him!
The very clumsy confused him with you. It is unforgivable.
Excuse me!
Quiet!
Here, please!
Call the police, Williams! Call the police!
A moment! I do not think the police are needed.
I would like to talk to this gentleman.
Can not you talk?
That will not stop him from drinking, will he?
Good!
Maybe you want to accompany us.
Of course, Mr. Adams.
Attend the goalkeepers immediately.
Over here, sir.
Laringitis?
Oh! Is he a boxer?
A strongman!
Good!
Vaudeville?
A circus?
Go! What do you think of that?
You see, Rock? You look at it as you look ...
I'm in this up to my neck.
The only thing he did was go around looking for work.
And look what happened to me!
I did not ask for this.
But, since I'm in it, Why not enjoy?
And that's where you come in.
Are you very busy?
Very well.
Why do not you stay with me four weeks...
to help me keep the bill intact?
I'll pay you as soon as I get work with the two men.
What do you say?
Well done!
Surely it will be a good job, at least 500 Pounds a year.
Six?
Do you know, Rock? It is a good idea.
Meanwhile...
we will have to be at the height of this.
For a month I will be Henry Adams, the American millionaire.

Arrive on time for the season. Who do you know, Mr. Adams?
I do not know anyone except two Brothers of Belgrave Square.
Oliver and Roderick, I think.
Oh, the Montpeliers! Great gentlemen.
No thanks.
I insist, it is one of my selections personal of Habanos.
Well, since you're here, we should see what can we do for you?
Although, as Ambassador, I think that You should admonish him for not coming before.
Well, that's not strictly true, Excellency.
I had come before.
- And why did not they tell me? - Well, it was ...
See, is that ...
It was that he had problems With the change.
In fact I still have them.
You see, that ticket ...
No, do not say more Mr. Adams. Would it be 100 pounds?
You are very kind Excellency, but...
Tonter as!
Bring 100 Pounds for Mr. Henry Adams.

Come here.
I have taken the floor.
Do you still think you're better here?
Better than ever.
I hid here when I was little.

Awarded to Mr. Adams for 5000 Pounds!
One, two, three!
He has done it very intelligently.
For a moment I thought I was not going to bid more.
Your jarring, Mr. Adams! His jarring!
Another link between our great countries!
Hurra! Good for America!

Hampshire House. Portia
Tonight, Rock, I will tell you the truth.
I will simply tell you that not even it's my shirt that I'm wearing.
- I have to see you alone. - When?
Now, I have something very important what to tell you.
Keep it tight, Mr. Adams! Tyrant!
Good evening, Excellency!
Charmer!
Here comes the American Ambassador with a friend of Mr. Adams.
A friend of mine?
Yes, someone called Eastbourne or Worthing or something like that.
His Excellency the American Ambassador and Mr. Lloyd Hastings.
Excuse me, please?
- Wallace, what a joy to see you! - Good evening, dear!
Mr. Adams, this one Mr. Lloyd Hastings.
- How are you? - Thanks for inviting me, Duchess.
He is anxious to see his friend.
Ah, the usual Henry!
It's wonderful to see you, I was looking forward to it.
The first time in 10 years! I worked with his father.
As soon as I saw your picture in the newspapers I decided to contact you.
I'll find you a corner so they can talk.
But first I will introduce you to my family.
- Well, we'll see you later. - Then.
I always knew that That boy would be fine.
You could see him from that he was only a boy.
It may look like.
- This is my husband - How are you, Ambassador?
No, do not get up, Duke, I do not want to interrupt your departure.
You are so beautiful here in the light of the moon that ...
which is more difficult for me tell him what he thought.
Here in the light of the moon it seems that the words are unnecessary.
Yes, but, you see ...
I must make a confession ...
and it is very embarrassing.
Do not worry about it, It is normal to feel uncomfortable.
You do not know what it is.
When you know, Maybe you do not like it.
My answer will be what you expected.
If I could count on that.
Can.
See, I know already.
- You know? - I guess I've always known.
I also have something what to confess
I feel the same.
Portia
You will not believe that I'm daring, is not it?
Wait, there are important things What should I tell you now?
I also have important things what to tell you.
But let's not spoil this moment with words.
Somehow they seem inadequate
Portia!
Portia! Where are you?
Where is Mr. Adams? Mr. Hastings wants to talk to him.
Henry, you have to help me.
Now that we are alone I'll tell you everything.
I'm in trouble and you can get me out of them easily.
I have made a great investment in a gold mine.
The Buena Esperanza mine, You will know her.
It's a good occasion in every sense...
but I need more capital.
And that's where you come in.
Your support at this time ...
it would make a difference between success and failure.
It's really an occasion extraordinary for both.
With our participation They would reach the edge in a flash.
Of course, I know that for years we have not seen each other ...
but I was a friend of your family.
You know that you will not fail ...
... when we have the money to continue we will go wind in stern.
My idea is to create a new Company and give all the shareholders ...
the opportunity to Subscribe new shares.
In my opinion, this is the only thing in the world ...
that can guarantee profits ...
The Bumbles, sir.
Well, we're already home.
Come and have a drink.
Well, I'm listening. Cuénteme your story.
My story? Another time?
How come again?
Good Hope, Henry! The mine!
For the Hope!
Henry, you worry me.
What have you taken in Hampshire House?
He took the girl's hand most charming in the world.
You mean the niece of the Duchess?
Exact.
Henry! Do you marry the nobility?
Congratulations! My most sincere congratulations, Henry.
As for the mine, Henry, the earth is there and the gold too.
Tons and tons!
We only have to download another thirty meters and we will have it.
It will be less than a week.
Congratulations, He is a rich man.
No, I'm ruined!
I have invested everything I had in that mine and I can not get out.
All my money!
If the stock falls further, I'm done!
There is no capitalist who wants to take a chance
I get it.
The capitalists We have the money tied.
I'm not asking you for money.
So, What are you asking me for?
You have a reason to distrust me?
My father trusted you. It's enough.
The only thing I ask of you, Henry, is to use your name.
It is all I want. Your name for a week.
You can use it, of course,
But what does my name have to do? with your gold mine?
It is the name of a millionaire. It will save my life.
And you too will benefit, Henry, recover it!
Oh, I'm climbing again!
And he will take you with me, higher still than you are!
You will also earn money!
Together we will make fireworks in the middle of the stock market.
And what have you taken in Hampshire House?
Sr. Walter Craddock! Sr. Walter Craddock!
- Do you call me? - Yes, sir.
A call in his office and Mr. Lloyd Hastings is waiting for you.
Thank you.
Thanks for coming Craddock. How are the shares traded today?
Cotize? They are on the verge of collapse.
Keep me 20,000 on the sidelines.
- Does he have an insolation? - I do not know why he says it.
Oh, one more thing!
Cémpreme another 20,000 in the name of Adams.
Henry Adams
- Henry Adams? - The same.
Coincidentally, he's a very good friend of mine.
Thanks, Craddock.
I'll call him later.
Henry Adams?
Hear! Hear!
Who is behind this?
Henry Adams, the millionaire American, know the mine.
- Finally, I have everything for me. - Yes, Henry.
- No distractions. - Yes, Henry.
- So you have to listen to me. - Yes, Henry.
Portia ...
I'm not a millionaire ...
Of course not.
The ticket does not belong to me.
It does not even exist.
It's all a big mistake, a misunderstanding
Actually, there is not even a possession I can say it's mine.
- Poor, poor lamb. - No, no, I'm serious.
So you live in the bridal suite of the Bumbles without paying.
That's it.
And it costs you nothing to eat and drink.
That's it.
And the tailor, out of pure kindness of heart He has dressed you with all that finesse.
I do not know anything about his kindness, but I know he has dressed me.
Do you really expect me to believe you?
Well, you will when I tell you what happened.
I think it's time to leave the jokes, Henry.
No, it is not. I am not rich.
I have no money.
I'm not a millionaire.
- Do not exaggerate with that joke? - It's not a joke, it's true.
"Henry, take me home!
Do not you want to know how ...?
I've heard enough. Take me home.
Well, I understand ...
It is not necessary to say more. Do what I say, take me home.
- One moment, sir. - Send the account to the Bank.
- It's just a cheln, sir. - Okay, okay, send it.
Portia, I understand that you do not want Marry a poor man ...
You're aggravating it with insults.
Insults? What insults?
I will not believe your ridiculous story. It is obvious that you have invented everything.
- Why would he do it? - To test my love,
With what is that? Esc chame!
I do not care if you're poor or rich.
But I do care if you think that changes something.
- Portia you are wonderful - And it's horrible.
And if you try not to pay the 5000 Pounds What do you owe my aunt?
I warn you that I will never marry a man who is not charitable.
You will hear me even if I have What to tie your hands and feet
Oh, get up!
No, until we get there to the Bumbles!
Henry, please, kiss me!
15/16, 15/16 Good Hope.
Exactly, with Hope 20 Shillings ...
Are you Hastings? I'm Craddock.
Good Hope has risen to 20 Shillings.
- Good Hope is 20 Shillings. - I bought.
- Good Hope is 20 Shillings. - I bought.
- Good Hope is 20 Shillings. - I bought.
That's the whole story.
When you return the ticket to those Men on Thursday, it will be a relief.
Muchacho you have achieved it again! What a rise, a fortune!
16,000 Pounds! Everything has gone as planned.
- How is it? - Hey Hastings, this is not ...
With you behind that mine, It did not matter if he had gold or not.
I bought you 20,000 shares to 2.3 and have raised one Pound.
Subtract your original investment and you have 15,750 left.
And it's all yours, boy! Every penny!
I said you would not regret this, and so it will be.
Portia!
What happens?
Easy, clumsy, Nosey, stubborn!
Barrigudo, clumsy, donkey!
Henry!
Wait a moment! You can not leave like that!
Wait!
- Yes, sir? - I'm here to see Miss Landsdowne.
I'm sorry, sir.
We have instructions from Do not bother Miss Landsdowne.
Nonsense
Tell him I'm Mr. Henry Adams. It's very urgent.
If I may, sir, that would be to add firewood to the fire.
It's the bag from Ms. Landsdowne?
Yes, yes, but ... I have to see her.
If you continue impertinent, sir, I must tell you ...
Miss Landsdowne said I hoped not to see him again.
I would have liked have a more delicate message
Good morning, sir.
- 490, 95 and 500! - Thank you, Excellency.
You're welcome, and now Lloyd I want to go back to my suite.
That is not possible, Excellency, Mr. Adams is still here.
- Have you paid for your account? - That does not matter, Excellency.
If you count for one English and a gentleman ...
Why not for a American nutty?
We can accommodate you in the Marlborough suite.
I want mine!
If we do not stand up to those Yankee careerists, they will trample us down.
It is a matter of principles.
He is a public figure, of a considerable position.
Tonter as!
How do you know he is a millionaire? There are only rumors.
In the Bumbles, as you know, we care more about the type of client ...
than your personal income.
I'm not here to insult you!
What kind of man do you think it is?
Do not tip the waitress.
Little Renie has not received Not a tip, she told me herself.
If you do not remove him from that suite, Lloyd, I will do it myself.
- Rayne! - Lord?
How much the bill goes up Mr. Adams for now?
136 pounds, sir, until last Thursday.
- Is that all? - I'm afraid I know, sir.
What a pity!
Store of the maidens
- I can not, sir, it's not good. - Come on, Renie, be good.
- Suppose I get caught. - You will not get caught, it's just a joke.
I should not, really, I should not.
You can say that I ordered it to you.
Come on, Renie, You like jokes, do not you?
- But, sir ... - Do it for me.
- He's not a little daring, sir? - That's right, yes.
Thanks, Rock.
Go ahead!
- Good afternoon, sir. - Good afternoon.
Rock, I want you to bring this letter to Hampshire House tomorrow.
Make sure you receive it Portia personally.
If you do not bring an answer from you, You are not the man who thought.
- Thank you, sir. - You are welcome.
I've done it, sir! I've done it!
- What? - What he told me, sir.
- What was it? - The ticket, sir.
Oh, splendid! Very good girl!
- Thank you, sir. - Very good girl.
Goodnight...
They are all rumors, all talk.
It is enough that someone speaks with a Yankee accent ...
and everyone thinks he is a millionaire.
And then they do what they want!
If you want my opinion, I do not think have a one-million dollar bill.
I tell you, dear who is an adventurer.
Do not ask me why I do.
He told me confidentially someone very close to him.
He has never had a one-million dollar bill
Hear!
If you think Adams is a millionaire, I am the king of Arabia.
There is no such ticket of ml Pounds.
Do you mean ...?
We know it's just a rumor ...
but my editor was wondering if he still has the ticket.
I have it.
If you are kind enough to show it to me, we will take it out on the first page.
For what? I'm tired to show everyone the ticket.
If it is denied at this time, only rumors will increase.
Rumors! What difference Is there between being a millionaire or not?
Well, as you wish, Mr. Adams, We have the story anyway.
They have earthquakes, shipwrecks and Lloyd George ...
and they have to dedicate themselves to my story!
All right, all right. I will show it to you.
Rock!
Where did you put the ticket?
Well, he wants me to warn to the police?
No, I do not want to let the police know.
Perhaps you want me to notify the Bank?
What I want him to do is leave to put their noses and leave.
Outside!
Quiet, do not move Mr. Adams!
The mystery of the Million of Pounds.
Following the rumor that Henry Adams ...
I no longer owned the ticket Million Pounds ...
our reporter had an interview with him last night.
When asked to show the ticket Henry Adams hesitated ...
and when pressed He could do nothing.
When he was suggested to call the police or contact the bank ...
He was adamant and refused to accept none of these obvious remedies.
For the interest of relationships Anglo-American ...
Mr. Adams should clarify the mystery
Especially, because the high London society ...
has opened all the doors to the famous American visitor.
An imposter, Who would have said it?
That shows how simple and confident that we are.
I have always said that you let yourself be easily deceived.
Charles, from now on ...
the door will be closed for Mr. Henry Adams.
Very good, sir.
And I will do the same!
What extraordinary women are!
He told me that there was no talk Henry Adams
And, if we want to avoid the scandal, should not.
I'm going to Bumbles.
No, darling, you are going to rest.
I will send you to the field to change the air.
So that everything is different.
Do what you do, I'll go see Henry.
If you were any girl, it would not matter ...
but ours It is not just any family.
Go, Grace, and you can not stop it.
I'm sorry, Portia, It's the only thing I can do.
Let me out!
I do not want to pressure you, Mr. Adams, but if you could pay your bill ...
we could update the books.
I thought there was no hurry.
The custom is to pay weekly...
but in your case we have left spend three weeks.
I would not press him either but ...
due to the increase in cost From handwork...
- There are two gentlemen waiting ... - Now I can not receive them.
If you want to pay us, Mr. Adams, We will not entertain you anymore.
- But, if he said he would wait ... - It was a way of speaking.
Sure, but demand the immediate payment ...
because I do not have the ticket, It is not reasonable.
- 130 Pounds is a great sum. - The 150th
There are three gentlemen They want to see you, sir.
- Tell them I can not receive them. - Yes, sir.
I do not try to avoid payment, but you He put in this suite unconditionally.
And you made me the suits saying I would wait until I wanted to.
- It's impossible for me ... - It is contrary to our policy.
- I demand that you pay me. - I insist on paying.
- Excuse me, sir. - I said I'm busy.
Yes, sir.
Well, gentlemen, They will have their money.
Turn down completely my accounts!
- When? - This afternoon.
They have made the mistake of thinking that I depend on that ticket.
It turns out that my true fortune He's in a gold mine.
Rock, I want you to make sure that Miss Landsdowne receives that letter.
Good morning, gentlemen, You are a fascinating species.
They should examine themselves ... with a microscope
I'll pay them this afternoon, gentlemen, to all.
There is no reason to get excited.
To half, Good Hope! To half, I sell 2000!
A 3/8 I sell Good Hope!
A 3/8 I sell Good Hope!
A 3/8 I sell Good Hope!
Exactly! Good Hope to 5 Shillings!
Good Hope to 1/4!
Henry Adams!
- Good Hope has come down. - Sell!
- Good Hope has come down. - Sell!
- Good Hope has come down. - Sell!
No!
Do not worry, Captain, I will look for you myself.
Oh, it's there!
Thank God you have come! Did you find the ticket?
I want to sell my shares. I have to pay some bills.
Sell? Nobody would want them or give them away.
You've finished with me, boy. I'm ruined.
What is he saying? He told me that they were worth 20,000 Pounds.
Yes, but that was yesterday.
The ticket, Henry! Where is it?
- You had it? Is not it true? - Of course I had it.
Is not anyone sane? Where is the buying and selling?
On Throgmorton Street, in the bag.
Well that's where I'm going.
No, Henry! You can not go there!
Henry, Henry, spy on me!
Henry! Henry you can not go! They do not let foreigners enter.
I am the cause of the problems. I have the right to speak.
Henry! They'll throw you out!
But, why do not they let me to explain them?
I assure you there is gold in the mine.
But, there is gold ...
There's gold in the mine!
And they call themselves businessmen!
I warned you, Henry. It is tradition.
I would do it to Rockefeller himself.
What's up? Why are all here?
For you
Why me? It's ridiculous I do not have much money.
Who are those?
It seems that they have been ruined with the mine, sir.
If you stay here, sir, the journalists will see you.
- Are you here, too? - Yes, sir, and many.
Not there, sir. From behind.
Excuse me, sir. Would you mind moving away?
Sr. Adams! Sr. Adams!
Have some idea to solve this issue?
- Sorry, I'll have to wait. - Wait? What will you do?
- Your victims are in the hall. - My victims? If I do not know ...
Traders, shareholders of your fake mine and journalists.
The Bumbles will not survive.
- Actionists? - Small shareholders.
Actionists? They can be saved to yourself, to you, to me and to the mine.
I just have to get that they keep their actions.
Do not worry, Lloyd, Maybe everything will be fixed.
It will not work! Sr. Adams, do not go!
They will attack you! Cualquier Anything can happen!
Ahh! It's him!
Ladies and Gentlemen ...
Ladies and Gentlemen ...
Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that all have come here to see me.
And that some of you have invested your money...
at the Buena Esperanza gold mine.
Naturally, everyone wants to know if your money is safe.
I understand that feeling.
What's in the ticket?
Are you a millionaire or not?
Whether he is a millionaire or not It is not the question.
Many people invested in Buena Hope only for your recommendation.
Please, ladies and gentlemen, if you want to listen to me a moment ...
they will verify that instead of let yourself be invaded by the panic ...
they must think that they have done a good investment.
Does he mean that? who has found the ticket?
- What the hell is going on here? - A good esc ndalo, sir.
It's open season. I will escape and leave you without money.
Stop riddles, man. Speak clearly.
Henry Adams, sir! He says he never had the ticket.
It's fine, yes!
Lord, if you can not find it, they will lynch him.
- They will not! They are British! Let me in.
Excuse me, sir. Instead, I would enter from behind.
I do not run away, no!
I do not run away.
Please, please, ladies and gentlemen, do not you see it?
If they used their common sense ...
and retain their actions one more week ...
it is very possible ...
It's very plausible, Mr. Adams.
But we still do not know if you are going to tell us something ...
or simply wants to get tangled up.
The unreasonable thing is that they prefer play based on my reputation ...
that in the great possibilities to find gold.
The player is you!
And what does it matter what I am, while we find gold in the mine?
He is cheating us all.
Please, please Ladies and gentlemen!
Let's face the facts as adult human beings.
- Why do not we listen? - Thank you, ma'am.
We will listen to anyone.
Yes!
Yes! You're already, sir!
- What is it? - The bridal suite is yours again.
Mr. Lloyd told me to change the sheets and clean the dust.
Look, they're taking out all their clothes! Is not it funny?
How dare you, sir?
How do you dare? What impertinence!
Leave it there again.
One shopkeepers who take the law by your hand!
What have they created?
Renie! This has gone very far.
A joke is one thing, but ...
when you have to pay the bill of the tailor, it's no joke.
Come with me!
Well, it seems to me that There has been too much hysteria ...
for something that in the end It is not more than a piece of paper.
I'm willing to play my reputation.
In fact I give you my word of honor that ...
if in addition to retain the actions they buy some more ...
they will all be rewarded.
The gold mine is authentic!
Exactly, boy, and we can prove it.
Ah, there is man that can clarify them ...
any questions about Good Hope actions.
Mr. Lloyd Hastings has so much faith in them that ...
We will return it to you, Mr. Adams, when you pay the bill
Mr. Adams speaks of honor but not You can pay neither the tailor's invoice.
All this is not more than a conspiracy, punished by law.
They have taken everything away from me.
Pay the widows!
No fights, Mr. Adams. I prohibit it.
The ticket!
The ticket!
The ticket!
The damn ticket!
Where was he?
Under your carpet. By order.
And why have you done it? something like that?
I do not like Yankees.
I do not like what they do with the money.
But the things we do we are much worse.
You have the right to throw away the glove.
Since I do not have a glove, I'll have to accept your excuses.
He is a gentleman. Start to like you
Teach the bill, Henry! Teach the ticket!
- Holy God! - I was right.
Be blessed, Mr. Adams! Blessed!
Am?
They have half an hour left, ladies and gentlemen...
to buy ...
Buy!
Step, please.
Excuse me, sir. Do you mind, sir?
Excuse me, please.
Henry!
Henry!
It's been a misunderstanding, all the fault of the press.
We will be eternally at your service.
"There's champagne in the bridal suite with the greetings of the Bumbles!
All right.
Quiet, do not move, Mr. Adams!
Today a month ago In fact it is the exact time.
Something worn by the use, but still intact.
Congratulations, Mr. Adams.
Well, now that I have fulfilled satisfactorily my part of the deal ...
What was the bet?
Well, see ...
I maintained that given the attitude of e people before the symbol of wealth ...
enough to own a small piece of paper ...
without changing it ...
to have what you want.
While I maintain that, if he was denied the right to change it ...
it would not do you any good ...
but I just have to look at him to see That I was wrong.
I had never won a bet more forcefully.
I assure you that with a ticket you can earn 20,000 Pounds on the Exchange.
- Can I say one thing? - Of course dear.
I admit that the ticket It has a lot to do ...
but it is not accurate to say that everything can be done
See, I love Henry because it's Henry.
The truth is that he left me when he thought he was rich ...
and I came back to me when I discovered that was really poor.
As much, the ticket was a problem.
Have you heard Oliver?
Mr. Adams, but for the ticket They would not have known each other.
How do you know? It would be his destiny to know himself.
We do not discuss probabilities, we are only interested in the facts.
Exactly, and the ticket was a problem. It is not almighty.
In fact, my dear Oliver, I'm not sure that ...
You can not deny it, Mr. Adams has returned the ticket intact ...
and now he has everything he wants.
Cochero, running!
