With pleasure, Excellency.

It's enough! Thank you.

Congratulations, Excellency.

What's the matter?

Of his electoral triumph.

At my age, I should be sensible and leave the policy,

instead of wasting time with fools and parasites.

Do you know, Johann? I envy him. Take you a healthy, simple and normal life.

He does not care about politics. Without However, he is completely happy, is not he?

How could he not be, Excellency? He has been very kind to me.

Why should not it be? Only you It gives me well-being in these days.

In addition, keep alive my faith in human beings.

Around me I only see good old families that degenerate.

Children who only inherit the worst of their parents.

But you, the Porok, follow

as usual. Without changes.

I remember your butler grandfather here. A good guy.

His father too.

And you, Johann, still have the old qualities.

Thank you, Excellency.

Thanks, Johann.

Pass.

Good morning, Mrs. Baroness.

Good day to you, Johann.

Am I the last one, as always?

He is still the youngest, baroness.

Yes, but now I am a guest.

If you wish, you will see her with the Countess.

- He was just kidding. - Of course.

- What kind kind of agreement? - Thank you, Excellency.

I hope he slept well.

Oh, yes. I always sleep well here in the field.

I feel a thousand kilometers of Budapest, and not 65.

And the voting in the town? How is it going?

His father goes ahead.

Clear. But the peasants ... Are you excited for my father?

Naturally. Everyone works in its properties.

- How's it going, Johann? - I...

I mean ... did not he get married or anything?

No, Excellency. I do not get married ... or anything.

But you must get married, Johann,

for your son to happen to you in my father's house.

You represent a dynasty.

The dynamic phase never It happened to me, Excellency.

But it is your duty, Johann.

There are many robust girls and healthy who work here.

Look for a good wife.

Two working together go further.

Usually, baroness, We do not go very far.

Oh, but ...

What a clumsy!

Johann, please!

Good morning, mother. Pass.

Good morning, dear.

- Thanks, Johann. - Yes, Excellency.

What was Johann doing?

He dropped jam.

- How are you, dear? - Very good.

I came to take my second coffee with you.

You're great, Katrina. So rested ...

Oh, I am.

Everything was here, as if sleeping in the castle every night.

The hard pillow, the glass of mineral water,

the heater ... everything.

Yes. Johann never forgets anything.

Georg telephoned. It will come for t , maybe late.

He is always late from who is a deputy ...

Thank you for your dedication to politics.

It will take less of actresses and hip dromos.

Why talk about that? It's such a beautiful morning!

Why did you marry him?

Your father and I did everything to prevent it.

I did maybe for that.

If they had not done it,

I would have seen Georg as he is.

Good reason, I suppose.

Excellence...

They show me a flock.

Where?

Behind those trees. If you wait here, sir.

There they are, sir.

Make them move.

- One day the old man is going to hit. - If you aim, no.

Three more, Johann. It's not bad. It's not bad.

Your Excellency is in top form today.

There is an echo lately, do not you notice?

I did not hear it when I was young.

The echoes are variable, sir, Like the time.

Apparently, the wind has changed.

- Oh, Theresa! - S , baroness?

Phone Ms. Hales to Budapest.

Tell him I can not go to the test. I will tell you.

Yes, baroness.

Thanks, Johann.

I would like my mother to give it to me ...

... to take it to Budapest.

I had many butlers, looking for one like you,

but there are not.

Maybe because I'm a race steward,

with a family tree.

What is that?

They put a microphone on the terrace.

After the results, his father will make a speech.

If you allow me ... it's almost the time of t .

Thanks, Johann.

Do you think it could end falling sympathetic?

Nothing would be easier, Klari.

So, what prevents it?

The usual reason

Another woman?

Three. And all very jealous.

And very dangerous.

Yes, I had a lot of fun.

Fig rate, Katrina. Today ... 14.

- Cornornices? - Yes, quail.

Very fat! Sorry to have to share them with the servants.

Johann always brings me luck. When he is with me, I hunt many.

If I'm alone, much less.

Serve t . We will not wait for the bar.

Good afternoon, bar? N.

Good afternoon, Theresa.

Good afternoon, Georg. I'm glad to see you.

Good afternoon, Georg.

Good Afternoon, Mother. Good afternoon, father. What's up, honey?

Very good. What about Budapest? Well?

I was very busy, I did not notice.

And the election?

Excellent, father! Excellent! We won the provinces.

But, in Budapest, the last results give

six flights ... a the social progressives!

Six? Are you sure there are six, sir?

Please, Johann, offer sugar to the bar n.

Yes, Excellency.

So ... it's you the butler ideal that my wife talks to me about.

Disclipe me, sir. I lost control.

Do not worry, Johann. Does not matter.

- He offers us some sandwiches? - Yes, Excellency.

I do not get it. Never in your life I made such a blunder.

Maybe he's interested, dear, like all the country.

Of course. We all commit mistakes sometimes.

After all, it is not a machine. It's a human.

Of course. Of course. Johann, put on the radio.

Do you have the exact time, Georg?

Four and five.

I thought he was late.

They must announce the Budapest results.

That's it.

... have been chosen. In Budapest South,

the social progressives got 44.125 votes,

getting 6 deputies.

The first one is Seandor Inchy. The second ...

Why did he do that?

Disc lpeme, Excellency, but I must tell him something very important.

It will not be so important I can not wait.

Replace the radio.

As you wish, sir.

The fifth deputy is Carl Peters.

The sixth is Johann Porok.

Porok's election is remarkable, since he is a butler

at the service of the boss of the conservative party,

Count Alber Sandor.

It's all for the moment.

Johann elected to Parliament?

It's unheard of!

Is it true, Johann?

Excellence, that was the news important that I wanted to tell him.

I can not believe it!

You can not go to Parliament. I never heard anything like it.

What are we going to do without him?

- Johann, come here. - Yes, Excellency.

Why did not he tell us?

I'm very surprised, Excellency.

I was in sixth place, and we had three deputies.

If your party opposes us, How can you be loyal to us?

Excellency, I fulfill faithfully with my homework here.

- My loyalty to you never falters. - Yes.

Well, mother, in our house we do not have such loyal servants,

but only the ... knights

participate in the discussions.

You have no idea of ​​a what site will go?

There are cultured people in Parliament. How will you sustain the comparison?

Excellence, like the baron Marissey I already insinuated, I'm not a gentleman.

So I had time to cultivate.

What do you mean by that?

Only not being a gentleman,

I do not have to play bridge nor dance,

nor go to the races. So I have time to ...

To betray those who Have you been fed?

If cultivating is a betrayal,

the baroness is absolutely right.

Education teaches loyalty, does not it?

Without any doubt, baroness.

Anyway, I have not been disloyal towards His Excellency

He believes me, does not he, sir?

Of course I am, Johann. But He played me a dirty trick.

You see it! You see it!

What will he do without you? Know my habits, all my weaknesses,

it even brings me luck when I'm going hunting.

Right or wrong, I manage to govern the country.

But with the shoes and the tie, what do I do?

How can I teach another What are you carrying in your blood?

But that will not be necessary absolutely.

Why not? It is no longer At my service, is not it?

Sir, when my party presented My candidacy, was a butler.

You are a landowner, I will continue as a butler.

While that does not prevent my political activity,

I will consider myself lucky to be able to continue at your service.

Why? To be able to spy on my father and inform his party?

Come on, you know Johann.

Everything is arranged, Johann.

As far as I'm concerned, you can talk about politics as much as you want.

I think the situation I will like it.

Now I can go with you to Parliament. You can now.

Instead of a minister of my Cabinet doing things to me,

... I will have my own competent butler.

Thank you, sir.

Everything remains the same.

Please give me a drink of co ac to toast the scare.

Yes, sir.

I hope you can trust him, father.

There is no care!

Excuse me, Excellency.

The radio is ready.

Now I'm going Are you coming, dear?

Clear. I love hearing you talk.

- Good afternoon, Excellency. - Good afternoon friends.

We'll be on the air soon, sir.

Father, eland the text of his speech?

Albert never prepares anything. Always speak without thinking.

I mean...

Leave it like that. It's the first time you criticize me in 30 years.

Sit here, dear. Calladita, huh?

Oh, yes, of course. I get it.

20 seconds, sir.

I'm ready.

Here Radio Budapest.

We speak from the castle of Prime Minister in Sandor.

We are on the beautiful terrace of this venerable house

and His Excellency, Prime Minister Albert Sandor,

he is going to talk to you

Ladies and gentlemen, first of all I thank you sincerely

Your confidence in me and in my party.

You will not abuse your patience our full program.

In any case, it would be unnecessary.

Our program can be Summarize in a single word.

That word is "bread."

Bread for everyone in the country.

The party promises bread for everyone.

We thank you humbly, Excellency, your important relationship.

And now, I can ask you, on behalf of the listeners,

if it's true that his butler was elected to Parliament by the opposition?

Yes, it's true.

I figure, Excellency,

that the new elected deputy he is no longer in the castle ...

Why not? Come a moment, Johann.

Johann is going to talk?

Why not ask for your opinion about the political situation?

Father, no!

As you wish, Excellence. It would be ... very interesting.

Please, speak on the microphone, illustrious sir.

I'm going to introduce you.

Ladies and gentlemen, go to o r

to the newly elected deputy of the socialprogressive party,

Mr. Johann Porok.

Compatriots,

To my regret, I do not see the situation

under a prism as favorable as the first Minister. Unfortunately...

Unfortunately, the control of ...

... government is in the hands of a single party

whose action consists of cowardice,

the lie and the vile arrangements.

Mother, do you hear what he says?

Shshshsh, t !

Under the conservatives,

the situation of the working class it only got worse.

That does not matter to him

to a party that gorges of taxes always increasing

taken from people Half starved.

The socialprogressive party

and I, as a member of Him,

we will do everything to end to this deplorable situation,

of which nobody is more responsible

that the prime minister, Count Albert Sandor.

Father, why do not you shut him up?

Year after year, the count he has promised the people

One chicken in each pot.

There have been no chickens.

Even the pots are They took the taxes.

Now he only promises bread.

Another empty promise!

Compatriots, the socialprogressive party

It does not promise workers bread.

We'll give you bread!

And thank you.

I thank the illustrious deputy-elect.

This is where the broadcast ends the castle of the prime minister.

Baronesa?

I think so!

Have you seen what elegance?

And the voice ... what sound, what vibrant!

And yesterday in Parliament?

I was not there.

Come on, the most exciting speech that you never heard.

Not my husband fell asleep!

There was never a deputy like him.

Just because it was raining,

and since then I almost do not leave there.

Yes, of course.

Mr. Porok, what a magnificent speech made yesterday!

I did not understand a word, Of course, but I'll decorate it!

and ... clarify it?

Maybe in my afternoon off, Countess.

Johann, please, more hot water.

Yes, sir.

Katrina, you have to hear about it this man in Parliament.

Why do not you come tomorrow?

I'm not interested.

How can you say that? It's almost your family.

It is not. And I will not go.

Here you have it, Baroness.

Thanks for your help.

- It was a pleasure. - Thank you. Adi s!

60 more, baroness, of the t mbola.

That makes ... 470.

Double that last time.

My friends are very generous.

Yes. With much desire to come.

Sure, with the greatest attraction of Budapest here ...

Was it hurt, Baroness?

Oh, it's nothing. I twisted my knee. Choose the money!

Do not lean on that foot.

Just a moment. It will happen.

Su lteme!

A crooked knee is serious, baroness.

Johan, please, join me.

But this is ridiculous! He treats me like a child.

If the baroness passes my arm by the neck, it will be more comfortable.

- Perd n, Mrs. Baroness. - What happens?

Countess Olga on the phone.

The baroness can not go now.

- That he gave him the message. - Yes, baroness.

Thank you.

Now ... if the baroness gets off the average, I look for a warm cloth.

I want it cold.

Perd n, baroness ... a hot country!

I think I know what is better. I want a cold cloth!

Yes, baroness, a cold cloth.

What did he say?

What if he does not want to go with them morning to Parliament.

Say no.

Can I help?

No, thanks, it's fine.

Tell him he will never go to Parliament!

I have not missed anything in that horrible place.

Oh, but it's hot!

Yes, Mrs. Baroness.

I declare the session open.

These things can not be do in a day.

We did the best we could under these circumstances,

and in due time everything will be

rectified.

Mr. President!

I give the floor to the illustrious Deputy Mr. Porok.

We ask for concrete measures, And what do we have?

A number of words.

We ask for decisions and we get more words.

Can our people to live only on words?

Our honorable adversaries of the opposition speak eloquently

and with many details to go to the rescue of the town.

Tremendous, is not it?

You can think that,

If the government continues with your current policy,

the town will have nothing. What are you going to help?

- Great, is not it? - I'll tell Freddy.

POROK CHALLENGES AGAIN THE PRIME MINISTER

THE QUESTION OF WEAPONS CAUSES PARLIAMENTARY BATTLE

I do not see why you drag me to Parliament!

We could go Christmas shopping.

Mother, you need to be open your eyes

He has been at home, without even reading the press.

He does not know what his dear Johann He has been doing.

Why worry about Johann? Your father does not bother you.

Johann makes ell the hazmerre r of the country, and does not react.

Your father has a good heart.

Too.

See, mother. Your own butler It will be his undoing.

It takes only three months of deputy

and the government trembles every time he kicks.

Good idea! Johann kicking!

Your father would not allow it.

It is the same bill.

They make false promises, and then nothing.

Let them try to present it again.

Arch velo

Why do not they make speeches?

They are not yet in session.

I thought they were talking all the time.

You have to see, mother! Have you never come here before?

Never. I'm not interested in politics.

I do not understand anything, and I'm surprised that you are.

I do not give a damn about politics. I hate everything related to her.

But someone has to protect to pap . I will try ...

Who, your father?

No, to Johann.

Why do you get mad, if daddy does not care?

I saw him the other day at the opera.

In row 10. No, on 9, in the center.

What was it?

I do not remember. I was wearing a suit uncrossed, dark blue,

with a carnation on the lapel.

And with a superior air.

I wanted to give him a bofet n.

And it was not the first time.

Last week, I treated pap of "ventr locuo pol tico".

Pap , a ventr locuo?

It made me so furious I almost threw this.

Look. Ah!

Another new suit.

The ideal butler. He fixes the tie to daddy.

Then, he will cut his neck.

- Nothing else, sir? - Nothing more, Johann.

Now that I have arranged my rags, go and name me like a rag.

I hope you understand. I do not attack you personally.

I understand it very well. Go

Do it well. My wife and my daughter they are here today.

There they are.

I will do everything possible. Good morning

Good morning

Johann, how long are you going to continue working for the prime minister?

I do not know.

We downgrade that the party boss ...

Does it lower us? From when the work rebate someone?

After all ... and dignity?

Why serve someone who ... enslave our people?

The count does not enslave anyone. He is a good employer.

It is an enemy. It adjusts the tie to an enemy?

Better fit a noose to the neck ... not a tie!

I agree with you.

Esc chenme, once and for all.

My work for you and my work for the count they are different things.

I have been faithful to the game. It never failed them in any way.

And I intend to continue serving the count while I do not say goodbye.

I declare the session open.

See the bill governmental number 482 ...

"Bill 482, third session.

"It will be voted for the two cameras ... "

What is he saying? I do not understand a word.

Do not worry. Nobody understands it.

It does not say that daddy is ventriloquist, is he?

I figured I would find them here.

Commander...

- Can I join you? - Please.

He is very friendly. I never see her Sometimes I think he tries to avoid me.

All his time is for politics.

What more horrible thing for a beautiful woman.

We can not go anywhere, to drink coffee?

You will not be interested in all that uproar from below, right?

Yes. See, they're talking of the Katson creek.

From the Katson stream? And what do you care about that creek?

I like them very much. I am passionate since childhood.

I will buy you a stream.

I do not sleep anymore, I do not ...

I tremble in my uniform.

If I knew what's going on here!

I kneel at his feet.

Not here, please. Remember that I am a married woman.

Katrina, I want to break the Heart when you tell me you're married?

However, I have a husband. Do you see?

Georg? That fool?

"Good husband! It is believed an irresistible Casanova.

Silence.

Can not I get her out of here?

I'm afraid not.

- In that case, I have an appointment. Adi s. - Adi s.

Look! Pap is going to talk!

Regarding the draft law of agriculture, I will say the following:

The conservative party

promised that the law would be adopted in this session. It will be.

There will be difficulties ...

... but they will be overcome.

It's all I have to say for the moment.

Mr. President!

I give the floor to the illustrious Deputy Mr. Porok.

The first Minister He always makes promises to us.

No doubt he would fulfill those promises,

if it were not for the "difficulties" that continue to emerge.

There was never anyone so overwhelmed for the "difficulties".

I suggest, then, for the first minister, a higher grade.

" Duque of the Difficulties!"

Daddy made duke? I had not heard about it.

Five years ago, the duke ...

... perd n, the prime minister,

He promised us a "Retirement Law".

But we did not have "Retirement Law".

Why not? Difficulties!

Four years ago, he promised

lower agricultural taxes.

But they did not come down. Why not?

Difficulties!

Three years ago, he promised reduce armaments.

But there was no reduction of armaments. Why not?

Difficulties!

Two years ago, he promised the people a chicken in each pot.

But we did not have chickens. Why not?

Difficulties!

Last year, he promised land distribution.

But there was no distribution of lands. Why not?

Difficulties!

And now, this year, the political ventriloquist,

spokesperson for the oligarchy,

presents another series of shining promises.

And, as always, he says that there will be difficulties.

He is right. ...l ...

Follow, Johann.

I will have difficulties. Actually, he already has them.

Your leagues no longer hold to the Count

It does not notice it

that they are dripping little by little.

In fact, they already slipped away.

The count should take care of your leagues.

But let's leave it.

The people of this country will not follow supporting a party

from a time gone by,

directed by a man who let use to cover

an unfair policy, harmful and reactionary.

The people of this country do not will continue to tolerate

the policy of Duke of the Difficulties.

It's time to...

Who launched it?

That he did. The one that pretends to sleep.

It was ,l, huh?

Oh, fight, huh?

Gentlemen, please!

Pap , pap ! Get under the table!

Let's go from here, mother!

I think so!

They're going to murder us cowardly!

I think this is over, for today.

Or is it starting?

Are we going, sir?

Good idea.

What an asylum! That's why your father ...

... he wants tranquility when he is at home

- Come up, mother. - Every day, fig rate!

- Katrina! - Father, are you okay?

Yes, dear, perfectly. We will go home with you.

I thought that only speeches would be made. I did not know what it would be like.

I think this is yours, ma'am.

Thank you.

Wow, Katrina, what was she doing? with your bag?

It will have fallen out of hand of Mrs. Baroness.

But, my dear Katrina, it's not a reason ...

... to fire him. Only he fulfilled his duty.

His speech was brave and witty Even

I agree with him.

I give up. Everything he does is fine.

I'm not so sure about that. The leagues ...

One day I had to wait for him 10 minutes in front of the Parliament.

I had a meeting or something.

It was the first time in my life that I had waited for a server.

But if I had a meeting ...

Mother! Now he defends him?

Of course I defend him. I could have do it in 5 minutes instead of 10.

Well, now he does not have a meeting, Where is the t ?

Johann, d nde had Stuck this time?

Forgive me, Excellency. I had to change my clothes.

He took his time to change, but he forgot me.

What do you want, sir?

- My bath and my walking suit. - Yes, Excellency.

Where does it go? Serve t first.

"Oh, Katrina! Do not you take the t ?

No thanks.

Why not? You wanted it a moment ago.

I have changed my mind.

Where is the saccharin?

I'm sorry, sir. I did not put the table.

When he did it, everything was in its place.

I'm going for her, sir.

Good Afternoon, Mother. Hello, honey! Good afternoon father.

Georg, we did not wait for you.

Yes, I know. I did not know what was coming either.

- T ? - No thanks.

Can we talk in private? It's very important.

How not? We call him later, Johann.

What happened?

I have news... unpleasant for you

As soon as he left, and without warning,

there was a vote of confidence, and I lost it.

They voted against me, huh?

Pap , do you have to resign again?

Father is no longer prime minister?

No, darling. Only a simple member of parliament.

It did not surprise me, after what what his steward said about you

Daddy does not care. He has already resigned before.

Johann left before bringing the cakes.

I will go for them.

I can not understand it He was defeated by 14 votes.

14 votes, eh? With our majority? Very strange!

Well, father, maybe Do not know. Long time...

... that is plotted a coalition cabinet.

Naturally, given the circumstances, nobody wanted to play his neck.

Why did not you play the neck, Georg?

I'm a little slow

and I do not know how to improvise. He understands, right?

Yes, I understand, Georg.

You could have invented something ... to prevent the vote.

Or maybe you did not want to interrupt her.

No, no, dear. This is something you do not understand.

Yes, dear. It is about high politics.

High policy!

Let a butler defeat a prime minister!

Be the bearer of such bad news, Georg, you must be unpleasant.

Did not I do the right thing, father? Maybe he should ...

You did very well. Now, at least, I can take it easy.

It's great, is not it, Albert? Now we can spend more time together.

Come and get dressed, dear. We will take a long walk

And this afternoon we will open a bottle of champagne!

Every time the government falls, your mother opens a bottle of champagne.

In other times, we drank it.

Now we only open the bottle. Come on, dear.

At least, you will not have to be ventriloquist

Well, tell me what happened exactly.

Well, what I said.

In other words, Johann Porok get up, do " puf!",

And the government is sinking!

Do not exaggerate, treasure. It was not just that.

This was a long time ago.

The hollow phrases of Porok They do not mean anything.

Is not true. He did not say hollow phrases.

They were sharp phrases. Each word was relevant.

Wait a moment! What are you going to do?

If nobody tells you what you think of him, he will do it!

Take it away, dear! In politics, one does not deal with the past.

Only the future.

If you'll excuse me, I have to phone.

My colleagues, and the press, naturally, they wait for me.

The press, of course!

- You called me, ma'am? - Yes.

You ... I think you are a cheeky adventurer.

A traitor. And ungrateful.

What else can I say to insult him?

Whatever you want, baroness. Here, I shut up. I'm an employee

Yes. An employee that destroys to my father.

How does it say?

Do not pretend As soon as we leave Parliament today,

there was a vote and They dismissed my father.

Thank you, Baroness, for the news.

Nothing disturbs him, huh? Continue working. Nothing bothers you.

If I told you that you are first Minister or Emperor of China,

I would not blink.

And the tray would not shake him, Right?

Probably not.

No. You are a gentleman in disguise

that sets an example to all of self-control

No, but if the tray shakes, everything can fall and break.

And they would deduct me from the salary.

How ready you are! He has an answer for everything.

If the Baroness would allow me, I would prefer to shut up.

He already called enough. Now he's going to talk.

At your orders, baroness.

For years he has lived in this house. It has served us.

It has bent slightly,

but never has revealed the minor indication of what I thought,

of your objectives, of your projects.

Baroness, the housekeeper he wants to buy a house.

The maid has been saving for 5 years to buy a taxi to her boyfriend.

The gardener's son studies medicine. He...

What does it have to do with you?

Only this.

The servants of this house They have dreams, hopes.

Ms. Baroness never manifested curiosity about them

Why his humble servant Would it be an exception?

Whatever you say,

the fact is that he has attacked the man who gives him the bread.

That's true. But I did it in name of those who do not have bread.

And the years it takes working for my father?

This house does not mean anything for you, is it just an accommodation?

That's very unfair, Baroness.

For me this house has meant Your excellence.

Said by a butler ... it's not an honor, but I love him very much.

Now I consider your policy harmful.

And his position as chief of the dangerous government.

And I can ask why?

Because with his respectable name and with your kindness,

with his personal altruism,

It covers a harmful and unfair policy.

That's why I attack him with all my strength.

Any politician He would fall because of his faults.

But His Excellency is strong like the granite.

So ... you have to blow it up, Is that it?

Maybe, Baroness.

Where was he?

Excellence, did you change your clothes alone?

I waited 15 minutes, shivering in a towel, and it did not come.

I forgot the vest, Excellency.

I could not find it.

And the gray tie, sir?

I could not find it either. I could not find...

...nothing. Can you tell me Why did not he come?

It was my fault, father. We had a small discussion.

A discussion? While I was shivering!

I'm sorry, father.

Well, goodbye, dear. I have to go back to the city.

Why? You do not have to what to leave?

I'm going to keep an eye on my house.

My servants are not so competent ... like yours. Adi s, father.

Adi s, father.

Anything else, Excellency?

Johann, I want to talk to you.

I'm sorry, but this is not You can continue like this.

I am forced to fire him.

I'm not surprised, Excellency.

Since its election, it has become in a good member of Parliament,

but in a bad servant. I can not anymore count on you for more time

There's no saccharin for me,

my leagues are leaking, my clothes are wrinkled,

the beer is lukewarm, and the cold bath.

Johann, he does not take care of me.

Unfortunately, it's true, Excellence.

Do not misunderstand me. Do not believe that It's because he attacked me in Parliament.

I respect the convictions of my opponents.

But I can not be asked I drink warm beer

or stumble with my garters.

The administrator will pay you.

Very good, Excellency.

"Adi s, boy!

And thank you for having served me faithfully for 12 years.

I hope we see each other in Parliament.

I hope so too, sir.

I can give my most expressive thanks Your Excellency for your kindness towards me?

Oh, dear! What are you doing, Katrina?

I'm a good wife.

Helping my husband to do reality his political ambition.

I'm going to give a dance.

A dance? Oh, poor girl! Do we have to attend?

Georg wants all the world come That's the idea.

The blue blood mixed with the red one.

What do you mean by that? Oh thanks.

I'm afraid I'll have to lend me your servants.

All but one. That's why my head hurts.

Anyway, I would not want have se.

- You could not. Pap dismissed him. - What?

Yes. He left this morning.

The headache prevented me from calling you. I knew you would be happy.

It was time. Let him go with fresh wind!

But ... who's going to take care of him?

He only knows how to take care of others.

He will somehow manage.

He is well employed!

He cares, mother, if we continue with the list? We are almost finished

Not at all, dear. I'm going to taste the aspirin.

It's fine, Martha ...

The Count and Countess Dubovski.

Katrina, I have to be alone with you

It's very flattering, commander, but ... can I trust you?

Never.

- Excuse me, baroness. - S ?

The bar n would like to see her right away in the living room.

- He said it was very important. - Very good.

I'm sorry, commander ... My husband...

Want to do the favor to tell me why a ...

... husband has more privileges What an old friend?

I also wonder Lately, commander.

Did you want to see me, Georg?

What is it?

How beautiful you are tonight, dear!

Yes, I know. What is this matter so important?

It's not that important. I just wanted to tell you

that at the last moment I invited a young deputy,

just to drink ... you know, coffee. - Very good.

Since you are a public character,

I received people of all kinds. One more, it does not matter ...

Do not you want to know who he is?

Not much.

- It's Johann. - Who?

It's Johann Porok.

I will tell the servants that do not let him in

No. You always understood me and you helped me ...

This time not! This time he will not!

Do you want to understand, my dear? Porok is the man of the moment.

Everyone flatters him. We all have to give a little.

Do not speak. It is worse.

Really, my dear, what a prude you are!

You know, I have the possibility to be a minister

Does not that make a small sacrifice?

You do not realize you're asking me to receive the one who was

my father's butler?

It is not already! Has power.

In addition ... I have precise reasons to invite you.

Certain circles do not treat you because he was a steward,

but if you receive him, well,

even those circles They will have to forget the past.

I will not receive you!

Baroness ... bar n ...

Good evening, my dear Johann. I'm glad you came. Pass. Pass.

It's not nice, my dear Katrina, have Mr. Porok with us?

Yes, very nice.

I'm very sorry, but I have you what to leave It will only be a moment.

The baroness will take care of you.

Heaven, show him the house. Pressend our friends.

I will meet with you as soon as I can.

Well ... shall we? I will show you ...

Thanks, baroness, But I do not feel like it.

No? So, why did you come here?

The baron spoke of a political meeting.

He said that 5 or 6 colleagues would be here.

I came by order of my party.

Dress suit?

I went to a concert.

I see. Now it is estimated that he goes to the concert in a gala suit.

No, baroness. It's Toscanini whom I appreciate a lot.

I was thinking about what I would you say of his presence here?

I did not know what I would see the baroness.

Please, do not wait for your guests Wait for the bar n here.

However you want.

It will make you serve something for drink. What would you like?

Baroness, you are very kind.

The last time I came here, by order of His Excellency,

He offered me wine. Does he still have the same?

Yes, but ... that wine is for the servants, not for the guests.

Am I a guest?

Forgive me, baroness. I had not noticed.

Sit down, please.

Thank you.

We speak? I think it's usually chat with the guests.

- I'm very excited, Baroness. - What?

It is the first time that a member of my family

sits in the presence of a member of your family.

It's a historic moment!

Well, here we are, sitting,

facing each other, chatting.

It is the famous equality why fight, no?

D game, val a worth fighting So much for this moment?

For me, widely.

Fuma?

Thank you.

Abdullah, with the rose leaf.

My mother brought them from Nice.

Yes, I know. The pas of contraband in the trunk.

- Brandy ...? - Please.

He is an Armagnac with 50 years of age.

He came with the cigarettes. Probably also in the trunk.

Yes, that's right, and in a very good company.

Let's see ... There were silk stockings, Chanel 22 ...

... and, oh, yes ... and the lilac fabric for your dressing gown.

I spent two days looking for it.

Really? Was it shopping for me?

Very often. Mr. Count always He made me choose his gifts.

I never imagined ...

The little bracelet I liked a lot.

And the cream-colored neglig .

With the pink knit lace?

It suited her very well.

So ... you had to choose my ...

Yes, baroness. I hope the size has been the correct one

Yes, exactly.

What he knows about me!

I have a little advantage gallant over you, baroness.

I know everything about you

Here ... you do not breathe, do not you think?

Are we going to the greenhouse?

You came very far in the Last few months, Johann.

Did that make you much happier?

I never expected it, Baroness.

And then, why Dedicated to politics?

He seemed so happy at home of my father...

Every man dreams of something crazy.

For example?

For example, smoking a cigarette until the end.

Until now, rarely I have been able to do it.

Usually, after a ...

... puff or two, just when it tastes better, ...

I had to throw it ... because someone rang the bell.

I wonder if the people who ring a bell above

I'll have some idea of ​​the sound shrill of the bell below.

When he arrived we did not shake hands.

Can we start over?

See, the refrains of his party they become reality.

Freedom, equality, fraternity.

Equality, because I offer my hand.

Freedom, because he does not let go.

And fraternity,

because ... I'm not angry absolutely.

No, baroness. They are still refrains.

There is no equality.

I've never been safer as in this moment.

At this time?

Yes. I'm at your house as a guest.

He offers me a chair, he shakes my hand.

But everything is in vain.

I still do not have the courage to break the chains of a lifetime.

I do not have the courage to tell you why I wanted to cultivate,

why ambition to be more than a butler.

I can not tell you yet ...

Johann, try to tell me ...

... your ambition, your career ...

... everything he did ... by me?

I do not believe in miracles, baroness.

I always knew that nothing could put me by his side.

That's just words.

Why do you tell me If you do not want anything from me?

I know I want something.

What?

I want him to kick me out.

That's why I'm going to tell you,

to hear it once and it's over!

I love her!

For 5 years, 10 years, since I remember, I love her.

But I hate her because she does not see it.

I feel sorry. Because he is a coward, and he lives with a man he despises.

Why? To save appearances.

His whole life is an imposture, a fraud.

You are a spoiled child, haughty and unjust.

But I love her.

Do you understand? I love her.

Now, will you cast me, please?

I want him to kick me out, hey ?!

I warn you, if you do not ...

Johann ...

Go!

You wanted me to be kind to your guest.

Hospitality can not Go further.

Katrina! Do something like this ... to me!

The Dowager Duchess Zilcha is leaving, my love

He wants to tell you that he liked the party.

Very good. Excuse me, please?

I will go with you

Sit down, please.

Thank you.

A cigarette?

Thank you.

I hope it happened well at the party.

Very much.

I love that he could come.

The pleasure is mine.

I was hoping I could have the opportunity to speak ...

... with you, but maybe not be the right moment.

Yes ...

Yes, I think so. I think it's the ideal time.

I wanted to talk to you about something considerably important.

Now it's ... very important.

I have observed you and your party with a lot of interest

Very solid, very progressive.

I am completely of agreement with you

They will love to know it.

Actually, I'm going to join.

Really?

Of course, I hope to serve in a position that is ...

Digna of your ... aptitudes?

Exactly.

Goodnight.

Goodnight. Me I'm glad you came.

Good evening, Countess. Good nights, baroness. Really enjoyed it.

Thank you. Goodnight.

Where is pap ?

Well, you know what it is reluctant to parties. He went...

...to the club. Probably I'll be swimming in steam.

Oh, the club? Guida, Bring the car, please.

Where are you going?

It's something that we have what to discuss with ...

... pap . It's not about something other than ...

... policy, dear. Nothing I have ...

... to worry about that sweet little head of yours

Goodnight mother. Good nights, treasure. Come on, Johann.

Take care that dad avoid the air currents.

He knows that he gets a cold easily. Come on, Johann!

Oh, yes, countess.

Good evening, Baroness.

Good evening, Johann.

What are you plotting with dad? Johann had a strange face.

Something terrible happened, mother.

What happened so terrible?

And great too.

Terrible and great ... qu ? What are you talking about?

What happened?

Well, Georg came to the greenhouse when I kissed Johann.

What ?!

Did I eat something?

Yes, Excellency. A good breakfast.

Oh that's good.

Good morning, mother.

My dear poor child. I knew you did not hit eye.

Oh, yes. He slept great.

You are the only one Your father did not sleep.

In Budapest, with all that noise, he does not sleep.

Let's see if he returns and tells us what happened.

Maybe they're fighting a duel.

Disappearing! The husbands are so stupid!

Mother, sit down. You will make a hole in the carpet.

In any case, it's old. I do not understand your calm

And I his nervousness.

I have reasons.

Look, I was always on your side. But last night, Georg was right.

How could you do it ... and let you surprise?

Tell me, mother ...

When I was young, I never wanted to a very inferior man?

One, I suppose ... When I was young ...

No mother. We are women, both. Su ltese the hair.

There was no one?

Let me think.

S , there was one!

- Who was it? - An engineer.

It doesn'' T work. There was no one inferior?

A rich peasant.

Lower.

An artist who made me the portrait.

Lower!

A alba il? Later she became an opera singer.

Oh no.

Come God! You already!

Your father was campaigning all over the country.

After a speech we dined at a farm. There was a dance.

Dance with all kinds of people.

A young peasant made me turn after lap

I have never been so excited nor spun like that. It was magnificent!

Did not I see him again?

Yes. The next morning, in the market.

I was selling ... cucumbers.

Pepinos?

Yes, I know. That time will never come back.

He sold 10 cucumbers for 5 cents.

It's fine, mother. Now, imagine this.

Suddenly it turns out that the young peasant is cultured,

smart, charming

But he has opinions, a personality.

But I'm telling you that I sold cucumbers. And personality, nothing.

And if you bargained, I gave you 12 cucumbers for 5 cents.

Come on, Katrina, how can you re rte knowing the scandal that threatens us?

Oh, dear, you can not understand it.

No, huh? You are not the only one. I was also in love.

Ah! It seems the noise of the pap car.

You must take it seriously, dear. Your father will be worried ...

- Good morning, Albert. - Good morning.

- Good morning, father. - Good morning. I would like coffee.

Yes, dear. I knew it. I said that what ...

... will bring as soon as you arrived Now it comes.

Well, what happened? We are very worried.

What happened? What did Johann say? And Georg?

Georg? The new minister of the coalition cabinet?

Georg ... in the cabinet?

Yes, dear. Thanks to you.

For the love of God, father, what happened?

Georg agrees to divorce without esc ndalo,

...as long as Johann get that ...

... your party accept Georg as minister ...

And what about Johann?

- Leave the policy. - What?

And go back to work here! What are you ready, Albert!

No, dear, he will not come back here.

No ...?

And this? I do not have a spoon

Go find a spoon!

I'm sorry, Excellency.

But father ... all this is ridiculous.

Johann renounces his goals, to his ideals ... and for what?

Because of your reputation, young lady.

Tonter as! Just because I kissed him?

If it was less important than a kiss, or the most discreet site ...

Do not let him do that.

What does it matter to me Georg? and the stupid esc ndalo?

You did not have right ...

I know I have it. It also concerns me.

Albert, do you care?

Yes. Yesterday, before all this happened,

I proposed to Johann for Minister's position.

It was very kind of you, Albert.

You do not see in what situation it puts us all?

They will infer that I make of my former servant a minister

for the sake of my daughter.

In addition, think about things unpleasant things they will say about your father.

After 40 years of public life!

It's incredible! Why do we put up with it?

Unfortunately, the reins take them your husband, a very ambitious man.

I will not allow it.

I'm afraid it's too late to do something about. Everything is decided.

Johann will propose to Georg the Parliament at noon.

Will you measure? Today?

Yes, dear.

Katrina! What are you going to do? Where are you going?

Pap , stop it!

Now it's up to Johann.

Oh, if Georg had not gone to the greenhouse ...

And do not fuck him Noses in politics!

How does it say?

- Good morning, baroness. - Good morning.

- Do you want me to drive? - No. I'll drive myself.

- Is the Parliament already in session? - Yes, sir.

- Just a moment. Who do you want to see? - To Johann Porok.

It has not come down yet.

Where is your office?

First door to the right, second floor.

Thank you.

Come in, please.

Johann, you can not do that.

I was hoping you only knew ... after solved.

I do not want to get it. I will not allow it.

It is the only exit.

Your husband wanted a good scan it, and we agreed ...

But Johann, you can not give up to all your goals, to your dreams.

It's crazy!

Think of all the people who trust in you, who believes in you.

Who will take your place?

There's others.

There are not, you know very well. You were born to lead them.

And I will not let you sacrifice yourself only because ... my husband ...

I'm afraid that I have that what to decide

But, do not you realize? You are going to do something I do not care about

Do you think I care what they say?

But I care more.

Johann, please, do not argue.

I was very wrong. Now I know I'm right.

Last night, was he really? Everything?

You know very well.

I love you

But I do not want to hurt you, but help you You know.

Yes.

Do you really love me?

I will never stop loving you.

Then you will not do nonsense? You will not do nothing you would regret?

I do not promise.

Go! Another time?

Katrina! This is over the top!

It did not surprise me that I go to give in Parliament.

Adi s, baroness. Please, Do not worry about anything.

Are we going?

I would not be missing more! Are you coming, treasure?

I would not miss it for nothing of the world!

Permit me

Well, have you seen what happens?

- Everything's fine, mother. - What happened?

Johann is not going to propose to Georg for minister. I got it.

Thank God!

Katrina, I still do not understand ...

Sr. President!

I give the floor to the illustrious Deputy Mr. Porok.

With the new tax program,

and the control of crops in play,

the country demands a government of union immediately.

Therefore, with permission of the Camera,

will not observe the usual procedure

and propose to the hemicycle

a candidate for the latter vacant position:

The Minister of Commerce.

This position requires a talent peculiar and political ability.

Are you talking about Georg?

Can not be. He promised me he would not.

The man that I am going to propose think about gathering those qualities.

Also, I know he's a politician cunning and skillful

S that talks about Georg!

A man who does not notice anything to achieve its goal,

that will sacrifice everything for his social position.

It happens that he is a member

of a great and distinguished family of the country.

I refer to the illustrious deputy, bar n Georg Marissey.

Johann, why do not you tell the truth ?!

S , Johann, say it!

Sr. President! I demand that the rostrum be evacuated!

Everything you say is a lie! You know!

Katrina, c llate!

I will not shut up!

Father, can not you do something?

It is your wife. It depends on you.

It's irregular! By Please, clear the rostrum!

Order. Order!

Tell them why you do it, Johann. Tell them we love each other.

Please, baroness. I demand that these women be expelled.

Johann, if you do not tell them what happened, I will do it!

Baronesa, I beg you, please no!

This is a scandal! Llamen to the guards! Let them throw them out!

T , c llate, t , Georg!

Silence! Silence!

Why should I shut up? All are talking!

Mother, please.

Mr. President, may I tell you What's behind this?

Mr. Porok sacrifices himself uselessly.

And it hurts the country.

They know Johann Porok.

They know that never I would propose to my husband, ...

... bar n Marissey, for such responsibility ...

...unless he was forced to do it.

And that's what happened. He is trying to save me.

Johann has lived in my house father for years.

He has known me since I was a child.

But only last night

We discovered that we loved each other.

I kissed him. My husband saw us

and I took this opportunity to ascend politically.

He offered me a divorce without esc ndalos

... as long as Johann I would propose for ...

... the council of ministers and then resign.

Gentlemen, that's the truth!

Now choose: Among the Baron Marissey or Johann Porok?

Porok! Porok! Porok!

- They claim you, Johann. Congratulations! - Thank you. Thank you, sir.

- Good morning, sir. - Good ones...

Good morning Are you the new maid, huh?

Yes, sir. I hope to be of your whole satisfaction, sir.

No ... it would not surprise me.

How do you like your toast?

Hot

How do you like your coffee?

Very hot.

How do you like your maids?

Like you, Mrs. Porok.
