A scene from Trouble in Paradise 1932
Gaston

Goodbye.

Mme. Colet

She extends her hand for a handshake.] Goodbye.

Gaston

You could have been marvelous.

Mme. Colet

Divine.

Gaston

Wonderful...But tomorrow morning, if you should wake out of your dreams and hear a knock, and the door opens, and there instead of a maid with a breakfast tray stands a policeman with a warrant, then you'll be glad you are alone.

Mme. Colet

But it could have been glorious.

Gaston

Lovely.

Mme. Colet

Divine...But that terrible policeman.

Gaston

Goodbye. [They kiss] Do you know what you're missing? [She nods] No. [He pulls her string of pearls from his coat pocket.] That's what you're missing. Your gift to her.

Mme. Colet

With the compliments of Colet and Companie.
