- [last lines]
- Michel Legrand: [to Brigitte] I can tell when you're lying. You never could tell a lie to me.
- Monique Wilson: You're a sweetheart for coming. Coming all the way here to see me off when you're so busy. I'll bring you some pajamas back from New York. Yours are horrible. I love you. Do you know what we'll do when I return?
- Michel Legrand: The exact same thing we did before you left.
- Monique Wilson: No. We'll go to the registry office to say yes. Yes-yes-yes.
- Michel Legrand: Great idea, but impossible.
- Monique Wilson: Why?
- Michel Legrand: You're already married.
- Brigitte Laurier: I understand your hurry. You had to see one of your mistresses. She seems like less of a tart than the others. What's her name?
- Michel Legrand: Miss Laurier, you are neither my wife nor my mistress. My private life doesn't concern you.
- Brigitte Laurier: It's not my fault if I'm in love with you. I'm not even sure why. You're not good-looking.
- Michel Legrand: You deserve a good spanking.
- Brigitte Laurier: Go ahead!
- Michel Legrand: [Dictating] At the last Conference of 5, which took place in New York in 1954, the group of European ministers whose duty is to examine - no. Whose duty is to examine together the risks of the economic situation - inflationary pressures...
- Brigitte Laurier: I love it when you're serious.
- Michel Legrand: Miss Laurier, if you don't stop, I shall have to tell your father.
- Brigitte Laurier: What will you tell him?
- Michel Legrand: That you've been tormenting me for the last four months.
- Brigitte Laurier: And you kissed me on the neck the first time I came here?
- Michel Legrand: Let's not speak of that unfortunate kiss, shall we?
- Brigitte Laurier: You kissed me twice, on the neck and on the mouth. You seemed to enjoy it tremendously.
- Michel Legrand: I didn't know how young you were. Or that you were my minister's daughter.
- Michel Legrand: Sit down and write. Write.
- [Dictating]
- Michel Legrand: The group of European ministers whose duty is to examine together the risks of the economic situation - inflationary pressures - Please button up your cardigan. Where was I?
- Brigitte Laurier: "Inflationary pressures. Please button up your cardigan."
- Michel Legrand: That was directed to you. I can see your belly button.
- Brigitte Laurier: You don't like it?
- Caroline Herblay: Michel.
- Michel Legrand: Caroline.
- Caroline Herblay: The jerk who never calls me anymore.
- Michel Legrand: I thought after what happened...
- Caroline Herblay: You're so spiteful. All this for a teeny-weeny bullet.
- Michel Legrand: I was hospitalized for a month.
- Caroline Herblay: Let's put all that behind us. I'm so happy to see you again. Come, I'll introduce you to my new husband. You can't believe what an awful bore he is.
- Brigitte Laurier: [Outside, in the country, during the afternoon] I hope I'm not disturbing you.
- Michel Legrand: Not at all. I'm delighted to see you.
- Brigitte Laurier: I don't believe you.
- Michel Legrand: It's true, Miss Laurier. Your timing is perfect. I'm all alone and you can make your dream come true. Take off your clothes.
- Brigitte Laurier: I don't understand?
- Michel Legrand: Yes, you do.
- Brigitte Laurier: You want to do it here, right now?
- Michel Legrand: You wanted to spend a weekend with me, preventing me from going to Deauville. My girlfriend's mad at me. So let's start now. Take off your clothes! Come on, take it off!
- Brigitte Laurier: Slob! Maniac! I hate you! You're a sex maniac!
- [Leaves in a panic]
- Michel Legrand: If you change your mind, let me know.
- Brigitte Laurier: You'll never hear from me again, you pig!
- Caroline Herblay: Tonight, I shall come to your room.
- Michel Legrand: Don't even think of it. Not here, at the president's home.
- Caroline Herblay: I couldn't care less about the president or his home.
- Michel Legrand: If your husband found out, it would be a disaster. My career would be at the mercy of the media.
- Caroline Herblay: There's no danger. We've got separate rooms and he sleeps like a log. It will be fine. Leave your door open. I'll be there at midnight.
- Michel Legrand: You want to what?
- Brigitte Laurier: Be your mistress.
- Michel Legrand: [sarcastically] Oh, Lord, that's all I need.
- Brigitte Laurier: I'll never mention marriage. But I'd like you to take me in your arms and kiss me.
- Caroline Herblay: Its my husband.
- Michel Legrand: Get out and hide in another room.
- Caroline Herblay: In my nightie? Are you kidding?
- Brigitte Laurier: You must be used to it.
- Michel Legrand: [Michel caught with Brigitte hiding in his bed] Mr. President.
- Alcide Laurier: You zip it, understand? To do that to me, in front of everybody.
- Michel Legrand: I swear I've done nothing! It's just a misunderstanding. Say something, Brigitte! Tell him!
- Brigitte Laurier: I'll say whatever you want, darling.
- Michel Legrand: Don't call me darling.
- Brigitte Laurier: Okay, darling.
- Michel Legrand: Mr. President, listen. On my honor. On the honor of the government and the Republic, nothing happened.
- Brigitte Laurier: Really?
- Alcide Laurier: The whole of Paris saw my daughter half-naked in your bed and you tell me nothing happened. Well, I assure you something will happen. A wedding, you hear me? Immediately.
- Brigitte Laurier: Daddy, I love you.
- Michel Legrand: Mr. President, do not upset her.
- Alcide Laurier: Shut up or I'll request your resignation immediately and slap you silly.
- Brigitte Laurier: Great idea. Go ahead.
- Alcide Laurier: [Slaps Brigitte] There!
- Michel Legrand: I suggest we go to bed right away. I'm dead tired! This is the last time I'm getting married. A nightcap?
- Brigitte Laurier: You're wasting your time. I'm made of ice.
- Michel Legrand: You really mean that?
- [She doesn't]
- Michel Legrand: Monique is an old friend. I like her. I have no reason not to see her.
- Brigitte Laurier: You're vile. But it's all over, Michel. I'll be unfaithful. I'll cheat on you, Michel. I'll cheat on you.
- Michel Legrand: Don't be silly. It's not that easy. You can't improvise adultery. You need the right attitude.
- Brigitte Laurier: Oh, really? Well, you asked for it. I'll take the first guy who comes through that door.
- Le prince Charles: Your wife is extolling her views on modern marriage. It's fascinating.
- Brigitte Laurier: I was talking about our open relationship. I find my husband's mistress quite charming.
- Michel Legrand: My wife likes to joke.
- Le prince Charles: Yes, I noticed.
- Michel Legrand: [Watching Brigitte take a bath] It's dumb, but I'd love to bathe with you.
- Brigitte Laurier: Take a bath with your mistress. With me, it's over.
- Monique Wilson: [Kiss] What do you think of my new lipstick?
- [Kiss]
- Monique Wilson: It's called raspberry and whiskey.
- Michel Legrand: Not bad at all.
- [Kiss]
