THEATRICAL AGENCY

OPERA

"Thou best of beings, how is my soul
'twixt eye and ear divided!

No: 'twas not she I snatched.
It was not she..."

Two bucks for Friday's show.

I'm not crazy. They should be happy
someone wants to see that nonsense.

Too bad.
Somehow it would be a great evening.

Smashing, skillful, grandiose, intense.

OPERETTA

Next, please.

"He looked at her face
with her shadowed eyes full of emotions.

'Your performance was extreme.'
She heard her lover cry hysterically."

In my day, this wasn't possible. It's
getting more difficult with every year.

All those people who want to get
into the theater these days.

It should be prohibited.

There should be a law.

DRAMA

"Oh, ye who stand around

with terror dumb, and mute surprise,

do not condemn..."

Damn it! Excuse me.

"...do not condemn the youth

who holds this language to the king,
his father.

Behold!

For me he died.

If ye have tears, if in your veins
flow blood, not molten...

Look here, and blame me not."

"And blame me not.

Doubtless you await the end
of this rude scene?

Here is my sword.

For you are still my king.

Think not I fear your vengeance.

I hereby renounce all
that this world can offer me."

... what my heart likes to play

Love as it were, love as it were

Even if you don't feel any sympathy

Darling, I know, darling, I know

That your heart likes to play

Do you want me to sing
something light too?

- Yes, please.
- No, thanks.

I play the light roles, miss.

You're too young for our stage.
Maybe later.

- Later?
- Ten years from now.

Next, please.

And hurry. I don't have a lot of time.

"Now I am alone.

O, what a rogue and peasant slave am I!

A dull and muddy-mettled rascal, peak,

like John-a-dreams,
unpregnant of my cause.

Am I a coward?

Who calls me villain?

Bloody, bawdy villain!

Remorseless, kindless villain!
Fie upon't! Faugh!

About, my brain!

I have heard
that guilty creatures sitting at a play

have by the very cunning of the scene
been struck so...

Struck..."

- Next!
- Next, please.

One moment, please.

Director.

Director, I...

I have also played the role of Karl Moor

in The Robbers by Friedrich von Schiller.

And I also had extraordinary success
as Romeo...

Romeo in Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare.

And by said Shakespeare,
I can also offer Othello.

This is me as the Moor of Venice.

And then, if you please...

I played the lead in
Käthchen of Heilbronn by Kleist.

- Me as Knight von Strahl.
- Thanks.

You will hear from us.

I will begin with
the speech of Marc Antony.

"Friends, Romans, countrymen,
lend me your ears."

Idiots.

Hamlet is missing.

Is this you?

Yes, indeed.

- You can play Hamlet?
- Of course!

Do you have an issue with that?

- Well, no. But I could have sworn...
- What?

That you're a comedian.

Don't make me laugh.

Dear Miss

Meet the hero and lover, Viktor Hempel!

Pleased to meet you. Susanne Lohr.

Don't get me wrong, Mr. Hempel.

I didn't really mean what I said
about you being a comedian.

You haven't been in the industry
very long, I suppose?

A newcomer, Mr. Hempel

I see.

Not so loud! There's no need
for everyone to know about it.

No false shame.

Everyone starts at the bottom.

Courage! And everything will be fine

I'd like to have a career
I have talent and I'm gifted

I'd like to have a career
But luck has not favored me yet

I can sing, I can laugh, I can dance

But I'm lacking much in finance

I can be serious or light

But still it's an uphill fight

Yes, it's tough.

This terrible draught! My pipes...

Oh, this world is just illusion...

- Does it have to be theater?
- Yes.

Why don't you try something else?

I must succeed by all means
I won't rest until I'm successful

I want to be a star without equal
And have the world at my feet

I want to stand in the limelight
And everyone shall see what I can do

I want to be on the posters in boldface

And at the top, at the very top
At the very top!

Dear Miss Lohr, it's not that easy.

Talent is only secondary.

For every director, remember the adage...

patronage, patronage, patro...

I knew it. I have a cold! Patronage.

I have not patronage
I don't know anyone here

I only know you.

Are you famous yet?

I am someone. I have my job.

They were just fighting over me.

Really? Congratulations.

Too early. I did not like the salary.

I didn't accept the offer.

You didn't sign a contract?

I'm used to it. About the salary, I mean.

You can afford it, you play the hero

I don't play anything
And have even less money

Dear child, just don't give up

Always hope, keep up your hopes

Why is that window open?

Let me tell you something
Out of experience

One day in spring

Luck will call at your door

And the world will be ablaze
With golden light

Then reach out to luck, never to let it go

Lock it up so it stays with you forever

Everyone will have their moment in the sun

Where finally good fortune
Beckons you to come

One day in spring
Luck will call at your door

And will make your wildest dreams
Come true

There should be a law.

Miss, it has been a pleasure.

What kind of weather is this today?

Too bad about your suit!

I'll only walk over
to the Esplanade Hotel.

The theater director from Baden-Baden
invited me to lunch.

- Enjoy your meal!
- You too.

Oh, well. People like me cannot keep up.

SELF-SERVICE RESTAURANT

But that's Hamlet sitting there!

I thought you were dining
at the Esplanade.

With the theater director
from Baden-Baden.

No,
Baden-Baden is way too far south for me.

Well,
if it were in the north or in the west!

I called the director to tell him
I have no interest.

The city is much too small

His theater cannot be that great at all

I pity the man. He was out of his mind.

Well,
without me he will sure be in a bind.

Hempels do not come by the dozen.

Sorry, did you say something?

No, I'm being quiet.

And that is why, for this reason...

Mr. Hempel.

Not one word you say is true.

Dear miss, I beg your pardon.

You spread it on quite thick.

Well, a little bit.

A little bit?

Actually, I'm hard up.
I'm not doing so well.

Others rob me of my roles, I can tell.
Nothing but grudgers and schemers.

But the worst are the directors.
They should be eradicated.

Root and branch!

- How you must feel inside...
- Terrible.

Waiter, another beer.

Have you read reviews about me?

You won't believe it.

"Hempel was completely miscast as Hamlet.

The audience couldn't stop laughing."

They have no clue.

- You also played Tell?
- With unprecedented success.

The audience went crazy over
the apple shot. We had to do it twice.

That's me as Tell.

And who is this?

That's me.

- But that's a girl.
- That's me.

You, the heroic actor as a woman?

That must be some kind of joke.

No, it was serious.

Can you keep a secret?

Since last winter I have been working
occasionally in small vaudeville shows.

Just to earn a little extra,
I dress up as...

- Otto?
- Yes?

Are the performers all here?

Except for number six, Viktoria.

His act is only after intermission.

Young man, you forgot something.

I'm terrified. I'd rather...

That's just stage fright.
In an hour it will be over.

You'll see. I will forget my lines.

The most important thing is that
we get paid. The rest doesn't matter.

And if I get stuck?

I'll watch out for you.
I want to make sure we get the ten bucks.

You're my saving grace.
You understand my predicament.

And I came up with this brilliant trick!

How did it go again? Please help me!

Where was it?

There.

Why don't you come to Madrid?

Or wherever you wish

I'll give you a kiss, yes, a kiss

Or whatever else you wish

I've been feeling so strangely Spanish
For some time now

That even while sleeping I say, "Olé!"

Why don't you come to Madrid?
Or wherever you wish

I have to go to the country
Where Carmen is at home

I can't take it anymore, I have to get out

Come along to Madrid or wherever you wish

NEW PROGRAM! TODAY!
VIKTORIA, MUSICAL COMEDY

No, I'm too scared.

Miss Susanne, please be a man!

Don't act like a girl. I know you can.

You know full well, money is tight,
so I beg you go and make it right.

I already pawned my suit.
Next, I'm sure my apartment I'll lose.

The shoemaker even made a few threats.
If I don't pay, I will be dead.

Miss Susanne, show charity,
have pity with my agony.

And of course, do not forget
a beefsteak would be nice to eat.

QUIET

- Are you... Viktoria?
- No.

Yes, that's me.

You must hurry. It is almost your turn.

And who are you?

- I'm accompanying my colleague.
- What?

I'm accompanying my colleague.

- Aluminum acetate.
- I already drank some.

Now I'm hoarse.

You're not supposed to drink it!
You put it around your neck.

WOMEN'S DRESSING ROOM

- A man! A man!
- Close the door!

Are you crazy?

Didn't you read the sign? Over there!

No, I'm not going in there.

No, not doing it.

No,
wild horses could not drag me in there.

I'm not going into
the men's dressing room. No.

I don't want to go and I won't!

But you have to!

It is about time.

But it is...

- Good evening. How are you?
- Fine, thank you.

It's been a while!

- What acts do you have today?
- Excellent performances.

- Really?
- A first-class program.

- Beer?
- Lager.

Coming up. Two beers, waiter!

Ice cream? Chocolate? Ice cream...

Fresh ice cream?

One lemonade. Hot, very hot.

I'm not surprised.
I'd be hot with that scarf!

What?
Lemonade, hot lemonade, you silly goose.

Old fool.

Chocolate, mints, sour drops!

Chocolate, mints, ice cream!

Ice cream, chocolate!

Mints, sour drops!

Was your father a glazier?

Hands off!

Sit down already.

Spanish fire has
Always run through my veins

And my heart beats like castanets

Spain, only you take away my sleep

And I'm wild about the friendly toreros

I also love Spanish dressing screens

And a kiss from Madrid says it all

Come along to Madrid or wherever you wish

I'll give you a kiss, yes, a kiss
Or whatever else you wish

I've been feeling so strangely Spanish
For some time now

That even in my sleep I call out...

Olé!

Come along to Madrid or wherever you wish

I must go to the country
Where Carmen's at home

I can't take it anymore, I have to get out

Come along to Madrid or wherever you wish

Or wherever else you wish

A man?

Of course.

Idiot!

Idiot

Apple tree!

Miss Director, the salary, please!

- Here.
- Ten? Wasn't it 12?

You must be delusional.

Get out of here!

The bank nets ten. See you then!

Someone wants to talk to you.

Hello? How do you do, Mr. Viktoria?

Compliments, that was fabulous
Enormous talent, sure to be famous

All you need is promotion

Without ballyhoo, you won't go far
But no worries, I will make you a star

You won't find anyone better than me

Everyone will know your name
That's my specialty

- Sir, I don't know...
- Who I am?

Francesco Alberto Punkertin.
At home everywhere in the world.

And everywhere I go in and out.

I recognize an attraction at first sight.

You're my man, I'm your fate.
And that's all that counts.

What's your salary here?

Ten marks.

Per evening.

Ridiculous!
I guarantee 200 for the next five years.

For you, minus my commission,
that will be a net of...

a quarter million!

With me, you're in the right place.
And take special heed of this:

"Required to perform the number
in any language."

Very important, young man.
Every country needs coverage.

Just get going, first stop will be London

The world belongs to you
With lots of money in it too

Send me back this paper
But it must be signed

Do it fairly quickly
And get it to Room 2

Au revoir. Gute Nacht. Good-bye.

Viktoria!

You did it!

Congratulations!

Never been this lucky.

Yesterday nothing,
and today a raging success!

Sign it, sign it fast,
before he changes his mind.

- You've lost your marbles.
- Why?

- I'm supposed to sign this?
- Of course.

I wouldn't dream of it.

Now I think you've lost your marbles.

Heaven sends you a man
who puts millions on the table for you,

and you won't dream of accepting?

No.

He should have offered it to me.

How fast do you think I would have signed?

Why don't you do it? You're Viktoria.

I was. But from now on, it's you.

But I don't want to.
I am a girl and I will stay a girl.

Well. And how far did you get as a girl?

Did someone hire you?

You did not get hired.
And you will not get hired.

But as a man, they will fight for you!

People are already fighting for you.

And you don't want that?

But, Mr. Hempel, don't you understand?

No, I don't understand.

- Do you want to be a celebrity?
- Yes.

Do you want to make a fortune?

Yes.

Do you want the world at your feet?

Yes.

Then sign.

- Viktor.
- Wait.

I-A.

Why?

Viktoria.

Viktoria.

And now we get to work.

You learn French, you study English,

get drilled in Italian,
hit the books in Spanish,

Romanian, Turkish, Japanese, Chinese,
Russian and Slovakian.

We'll make our way
through the complete Berlitz school!

Mr. Punkertin, we won't disappoint you.

- We?
- Of course!

I won't let such a young boy
go out into the world alone!

With you on my arm,
I'll challenge my century!

We must succeed by all means
We won't rest until we've won victory

We won't stray from our path
Until we have the world at our feet

We want to be in the limelight onstage
And people shall cheer when they see us

We want to be on the posters in boldface
At the top, at the top, at the very top

Pretty girl.

Very pretty.

Really? Matter of taste.

Very true. A matter of taste.

Yes. But you're also "wunderfull".

Do you me... "unterstand"?

Don't try too hard.
You can speak German with me.

I was baptized with water from the Spree.

Wonderful.

To find someone so sweet by the Thames,
of all places!

Pretty boy, right?

Matter of taste.

- No, no, a very pretty boy.
- Bravo!

Miss Schulze! So after the show
I will wait for you at the stage entrance.

- Yes?
- Yes, yes.

Don't forget! At the stage entrance.
Don't forget.

See you later! See you later.

- Hello!
- What do you say now?

Are you happy? Contracts from everywhere,

telegrams from Milan, Rome,
Paris, Amsterdam.

I make you famous all over the world.
Contracts, promotion, tons of wealth!

- So, Mr. Viktoria, do I work hard?
- Yes.

You see, Punkertin will get you far.

But now I must go. I'm out of time.
I have to quickly get to my flight.

And next year we'll be all sold out.
Au revoir. Gute Nacht.

Good-bye! Amsterdam!

That man really does work hard.

I worked hard!
The whole thing was my idea.

He only worked hard in falling for it.

And you know how well I play
my part as a man.

But I taught you.

Viktor.

- Yes?
- I'm starving.

Is the food good at the Savoy?

The Savoy? England's best cuisine.
Simply "wonderful."

Too bad I cannot join you tonight.

Why not? What is going on?

Well, I... I have developed certain
relationships with foreign countries.

Fabulous affair, at very attractive terms.

It would be irresponsible
to waste such an occasion.

It would be tactless.

- Wouldn't it?
- Yes.

What's the name of the English girl?

Lilli Schulze,
from the green banks of the Spree.

A charming creature.

Gosh, and so modest, so trusting,
so darling, so sweet and...

In a word: a timid fawn.

Well, good hunting.

So you won't be mad at me, Susanne,
if I leave you alone tonight?

Of course not. I'm not a young girl.

I'm a mature, experienced man.

I can handle any situation.

Hopefully, I'll be able
to prove that tonight.

But be careful, Susanne,
and don't do anything stupid.

Don't worry. I won't break character.

That would be horrible!
There's so much at stake for us.

Oh, Victor, today is a lucky day! The big
success at the theater, the new contracts.

I'm so content and...

Happy as never before

What could be better

Than not having anything for wish for

Everything today is so cheerful

Luck is on our side

As it comes to everyone sometime

One day in spring
Luck will call at your door

And the world will be ablaze
With golden light

Then reach out to luck, never to let it go

Lock it up so it stays with you forever

Everyone will have their moment in the sun

Where finally good fortune
Beckons you to come

One day in spring
Luck will call at your door

And will make your wildest dreams
Come true

But that's... Of course! That's Viktoria.

Really a gorgeous boy.

- And so well-built.
- Well-built?

He has a good tailor.

Why don't you go to a good tailor?

Don't laugh. We have the same one.

Yes, Robert can afford such luxury.

Of course, everything about Robert
is wonderful in your eyes.

- But he doesn't care.
- Yes. I'm a hopeless case.

Cheers, Ellinor.

But I'm not hopeless. To the contrary.

For two years,
I've lived in the hope of marrying you.

And what did it get me?

Permission to keep hoping.

Thank you. You make me very happy.

Wait!

One moment, please.

Is she still inside?

Not inside?

May I give you a light, Mr. Viktoria?

I admired you tonight. My compliments.

Your illusion is perfect.

I really...
I really thought you were a woman.

- Whiskey?
- Yes.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Two more whiskeys.

Hello. Good evening!

- How are you?
- Well, thank you.

Who is the young man over there?

That is Mr. Viktoria.

The star of the Majestic.

I see. A pretty boy.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Another whiskey.

- May I introduce you?
- But I already know...

Mr. Viktoria.

Imagine, London's leading expert on women
has fallen in love with you.

But, Ellinor!

Don't deny it, Robert.
It's true, isn't it?

Allow me. Sir Douglas Sheppersfield,
Mr. Viktoria.

- A tango! Robert, can we dance?
- With pleasure.

Which tailor do you have?

Why?

Because, we've just...
Are you having a whiskey?

Two whiskeys!

Hello! Mr. Viktoria!

- One moment.
- Hello.

- Where did you leave your colleague?
- I was going to ask you the same.

He wanted to engage in relationships
with certain foreign countries tonight.

He spoke of a gentle, modest, timid fawn.

Lilli Schulze,
from the green banks of the Spree.

He took that seriously?

Very seriously.

But how could he?

I'm not going out with a man
I've only just met.

Oh, no. I would not do that.

Would you like to dance with me?

Sorry, I'm very tired. But I think this
gentleman is a passionate dancer, right?

- Excuse me?
- Do you want to dance with me?

- Yes.
- Or are you tired too?

No, I'm awake, very awake!

Great. Come on.

Say hi to your colleague.
Tell him not to be mad.

Where can one still get something
to drink?

At the bar, sir.

Hello, Viktor!

Hello, Viktoria.

Did you enjoy yourself?

Tremendously.

An unforgettable evening.

Another whiskey, but not so much water.

Tremendously thirsty.

Too much champagne, I guess?

Six bottles.

Imagine,
the young girl never had champagne.

A timid fawn.

Yes, a timid--

Timid.

Fawn.

One more whiskey.

Even less water.

Why didn't you bring the girl along?

Why? Oh, I see.

Well, on princip--
On principle she doesn't frequent bars.

Another whiskey.

Without water.

Oh, Viktor.

All this because of a little fawn.

God's animal kingdom is so huge.

Come on.

But there are so few fawns!

Viktor.

Douglas, don't make me jealous.

- But, Ellinor, there's really no reason.
- The girl is very pretty.

But she is just a silly goose.

- Sir!
- Viktor!

How dare you!

To call a timid fawn a silly goose!

That is an insult!

I demand satisfaction.

Viktor, let's go.

I don't have to go.

So sorry,
my colleague had too much whiskey.

Please take me home.

I'm so sorry.

Please resolve this situation.

- Most certainly.
- A scoundrel, a coward.

Come on. Let's go to bed.

A delicate...

What a scoundrel!

What a scoundrel.

- Please.
- A silly goose.

A delicate fawn. A goose.

She is... not a goose.

She is not a goose.

She is a fawn.

A fawn, a timid fawn. Oh, my head!

Let's go. Good night.

Good night, good night.

Good night.

- Thank you so much for your help.
- Why, of course.

Good evening, sir.

I will get a sedative.

Everything revolves and moves and...

You snake! Why did you stand me up?

Waiter, another whiskey. Three!

You're a fine colleague!
Your behavior is scandalous.

What will people think of us?

I'm ashamed.

I'm not supposed to break character,
and what do you do?

I'm not supposed to do anything stupid,
and what do you do?

You get into trouble and embarrass me!

And what are you doing?

You're awfully inconsiderate.

Don't you feel how I suffer,

playing this ridiculous role of a man?

Dear Miss Susanne, I swear to you

I have to drink whiskey and wear pants
Pay stupid women compliments

And I do this for you, or did you think
That something this stupid is fun for me?

Did you already forget
What I sacrificed for you?

Did you already forget that I'm a woman?

But if you dare to do this one more time
Then it's all over between us

You better remember this
Because I'll no longer be your Viktoria

Yes, come in.

Would you bring me a glass of water,
young man?

Here you go.

Thank you.

Drink this,
and tomorrow you'll feel like a new man.

Cheers!

Good night.

Feel better.

I want to apologize for my colleague.

Please, it was a great pleasure for me...

to be of help, sir.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Oh, and now you act all offended, sir.

Even though you insulted me.

I was supposed to go out with you

On our first evening
What would that look like?

Such behavior is not gentleman-like

Or do you consider your behavior
Gentleman-like?

I'm sure you know
What proper behavior should be like

Don't ever ask a lady out
The first time that you meet her

You bring her pretty flowers
Woo her more than a few hours

She will not go as long as he
Is still a stranger to her

Don't ever ask a lady out
The first time that you meet her

I'm so sorry, it was not gentleman-like

Does one have to know you long
For it to be gentleman-like?

When may I dare to ask you once again?

After 24 hours at the earliest, sir.

And when will that be?

Tonight, sir.

Then herewith a gentleman asks you
Most politely for this evening

It will be my pleasure.

Don't ever ask a lady out
The first time that you meet her

You bring her pretty flowers
Woo her more than a few hours

She will not go as long as he
Is still a stranger to her

Don't ever ask a lady out...

Unless you meet for the second time

- Who is it?
- It's me.

Who is me?

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

May a mere mortal take a look
at the sanctuary of a great artist?

No.

Oh, yes, of course.

Cigarette?

It's empty.

- Do you smoke?
- No.

Yes, of course.

Interesting.

Very interesting.

So this is how you do your trick.

You take some of this...

And then this...

I see, you put it on your face, right?

Weird.

Finally, you put that thing on your head,
and Viktoria is ready.

You're a great guy.

That must have been quite a bit of work.

Until you learned how to bring out this...
femininity.

Oh, that is...

That comes naturally.

- Oh, that comes naturally to you?
- Yes.

Interesting.

There you are, sir.

I came to see you.

What can I do for you?

I regret that it is my duty to come back
to yesterday's incident at the Savoy.

My friend, Sir Douglas Sheppersfield,
asked me to demand satisfaction from you.

Sir Douglas, as the offended party,
has the choice of weapons.

Pistols, ten bullets,
a distance of 20 paces.

Ten bullets? Each?

No, five each.

If one of you is hit, the remaining
bullets are dropped, of course.

- Five bullets are not enough for you?
- Oh, they are.

Given the seriousness of the offense,
the conditions are fairly mild.

Don't you agree?

Me? Yes, of course. Surely.

I... One moment, please.

Ten bullets, 20 paces...

A distance of 20 paces.

There won't be a duel.

- What?
- I made it up.

And between us, I think your colleague
deserves this little lesson.

Excuse me, dear colleague,
could you teach me how to shoot?

Agreed then, my friend.

I'll pick you up after the show
and give you a tour of London by night.

See you.

Anything you want to say to your opponent?

No. I mean...

Please send him my regards.

Will do.

Susie? I will depart immediately.

- Farewell.
- Coward!

I'm not a coward!

But I did not come to London
to get shot by some crazy Englishman!

Why don't you shoot him then?

I don't even know how to shoot!

You always told me that you shot twice
when you played Tell.

But I didn't hit the apple!

Someone always pulled it away
from behind with a wire.

Sir Douglas will hardly accept
a duel with some kind of wire.

That's why I have to leave. Adieu.

Wait. Come here.

And when the gentlemen come for the duel
and ask for you? What shall I answer?

They can start without me.

If you run away,
then I will not perform anymore.

Very well. Then I shall let them shoot me.

Ten bullets, distance of 20 paces.

That suits you, does it not?

But of course. Of course.

Cognac, please.

Ten bullets, distance of 20 paces.

- He really surprised me.
- He did?

Manly, unflinching.

I'm sure he's a great shot.

MY LAST WILL

- Not shaved?
- No.

Let's go.

Better.

The basket of roses, please.

Or do you have something
even more beautiful?

How about the lilacs?

What do you think?

Roses or lilacs?

Why don't you send her some daisies?

Dear friend, this is a woman who I adore.

Who I love.

- I see.
- I decided--

To do what?

To ask her to marry me.

Her whole being,

her charm, her attitude...

I find it absolutely enchanting.

Enchanting? She did not enchant me.

And what do I care?

Do whatever you want.

I'm going to breakfast.

The roses!

I cannot take it anymore. It's over!
It's enough. I'm going nuts!

I've been crazy for a while.

You've always been. But it's worse for me.

I thought it was easy
and was free of worry.

And now something like this
had to happen to me.

To lose the person I love most!

Can't anything be done?

Nothing.
The flowers have been ordered already.

And it is all your fault!

How could I have known?

You should have known
how dangerous it is to play with fire!

Instead you changed me into a man,
only to save ten bucks!

And now I'm out of luck.

It was you,
and you're the only one to blame!

You've choked my yearning for a man.

And that, believe you me,
even the strongest woman cannot bear.

Your situation is tragic.
Mine is... hopeless.

For me, it sure was the last blow.
The camel's back is broken.

I'm not staying. I'm out of here.
There's nothing you can say to me.

Just be quiet.

But I didn't say anything!

Just help me with the suitcase!

I cannot do it alone.

And I'm going to a duel! My last word.

Yes, speaking.

- Ellinor!
- Do you have plans this afternoon?

You don't? Great.
Come to my house for tea.

Me? I'm not sure...

Yes... I see.

All right, I will be there.
On time at half past three.

The cow pretends to be alone
and wants me to come over now.

And he finds this adorable?
Horrible, horrible, horrible!

Lady, I will come.
But you will surely see how it goes.

I'll snatch up the bride
from under his nose.

Watch out! Very dangerous.

Could go off any minute!

Leave it where it is. Don't pick it up.

Carrying a weapon without a license
gets you five years in jail.

Come here.

Thank God, I'm rid of that thing!

I absolutely couldn't stand it

I didn't like it either

It wasn't a good match for us

I feel exactly the same way
But you're the one to demand it

Me? Not at all, I would have never

I would have been distressed
Had you been killed

I would not have survived

I never wanted to shoot you

Thank God, I'm rid of that thing!

You have no idea how happy I am

Both of us remain unharmed

I completely agree

The matter is settled completely

Hey! Watch out!

Do you want me to slap you?

No.

Please send this basket.

Sorry, it is already sold.

That's too bad.

But we can make another one,
exactly the same.

I have to be sure that
it is exactly the same.

Please send the basket to Miss Ellinor.

Lovely that you come to see me.

I simply had to come.
I was already electrified on the phone.

White lilacs, my favorite flowers.
What a nice surprise!

Young friend, you're charming.

How much longer will you be in London?

Unfortunately,
only until the end of the month.

I would have loved to stay longer.

Is it very indiscreet to ask
what keeps you here?

I have fallen in love.

- How interesting.
- But my love is not returned.

Maybe you didn't
express it clearly enough.

You give me hope, ma'am.

Don't be so forward, young man.

One word from you,
and I'll never leave London again.

It's in your hand to make me
the happiest person.

I know you're taken,

and if you only knew what I've
been through since I found out.

- He told you?
- He's enchanted by you!

He's raving about you!

He's decided to marry you.

He already ordered the flowers!

There they are.

But if they only...

Silly boy.

Dearest Ellinor, will you marry me?
Forever yours, Douglas

Oh, Susanne, life is beautiful!
Yours, Viktor who has returned to life

Hello.

The bill, please.

For Room 359.

Fifty-nine, yes.

Immediately, please.

I'm leaving.

Hello, Miss Schulze.

Did somebody ruin your good mood?

I refuse to allow such confidentialities.

I refuse to be played with.

You're dead to me.

First you beg me for a rendezvous
and implore me to come.

I wait for you an eternity.
No one has ever dared to do that.

You? A duel? Nice idea.

But there is one thing you forgot.

I'm not as dumb as I may seem,
and lies won't get you far.

- I cannot do more than swear to you.
- Well, I don't want to hear any more.

I will no longer consider you in any way.
This goes for night, this goes for day.

What? Did I hear correctly? My colleague?

Yes, he is the man, a true gentleman

In a league of his own
No one else can touch him

I find him amazing, truly breathtaking

He is the man all women want

What a man! What a body! So fabulous!

The way he moves and laughs, incomparable

He wouldn't even need to ask me twice

He would be the man
The right man, the right man for me

I will let you in on a little secret.

- What? He is...
- A girl.

A girl?

The right man for you.

A girl!

A girl?

Susanne, will you marry me?

What?

No longer at the hotel?

Checked out?

This is a disaster.

Breach of contract!

That will cost... That will cost...

I cannot even calculate what it will cost!

But you cannot breach your contract!
You have to bite the bullet one more time.

There you go.
Tomorrow I will take care of everything.

Bring the suitcases back up.

But it's already so late.
No way I get to the theater in time.

Be right there.

Spanish fire has
Always run through my veins

And my heart is beating like castanets

Spain, only you take away my sleep

And I'm wild about the friendly toreros

I also love Spanish dressing screens

And a kiss from Madrid says it all

Come along to Madrid or wherever you wish

I'll give you a kiss, yes, a kiss
Or whatever else you wish

I've been feeling so strangely Spanish
For some time now

That even in my sleep I call out, "Olé!"

Come along to Madrid or wherever you wish

I must go to the country
Where Carmen's at home

I can't take it anymore, I have to get out

Come along to Madrid or wherever you wish

- It's a girl.
- No.

- Yes.
- No.

Come along to Madrid or wherever you wish

I must go to the country
Where Carmen's at home

I can't take it anymore, I have to get out

Come along to Madrid or wherever you wish

Or wherever else you wish

- Bravo! Fantastic! That was excellent.
- What a talent.

Get back onstage.

Go already!

Compliments! What a talent! Amazing!

- You're a born comedian.
- I knew it!

I've been looking for years.
Come to my hotel room.

- Room 2.
- Au revoir.

- Gute Nacht.
- Good-bye.

Hurrah!

Everyone will have
their moment in the sun.

Where finally good fortune--

Beckons you to come.

- What is going on?
- Please, miss.

- Why miss?
- Please come with us.

How dare you!

- What happened?
- What is going on?

- He is a man.
- A man?

A man, a man, a man!

THE END
