Le camelot (peddler)My dear friends, so kind of you to come. We were waiting for you before we served the biscuits dry as the duchess's pussy.

Le camelot (peddler)A little something from Paris. A bit of the city. I'll be in Paris tonight. Want to come? I'll take you. Just like that, in a flash! You'll just get rheumatism on this old thing. I'll take you on my bike. You'll be back before roll call. It's a city bursting with lights. The "city of light" on every level. Bikes, motorbikes, and convertibles for everyone. It's splendiferous! The Champs-Élysées for bébé, the Tuileries for me, and for madame, Notre Dame. Is it a deal? Going once, twice, three times. No takers?

JeanLet's do this properly and wake the missus with a song.
JeanJean, Le père Jules (old Jules), Le gosse (cabin boy): [singing] We're on the barges to work - not to play, Not to wander but to ply the canals all day, Seated at the helm we're kings of the realm, A pretty girl's smile may beguile us a while, There may be hard times too, But we'll see them through, With a cheerful heart, That's what bargemen do!

Le père Jules (old Jules)I've had about enough of him and his Juliette. "Get to work"? Does she grease the engine? All day long, it's either smoochin' or squabblin'!

Jean[singing]When young folks set out on a barge, And live that life day after day, The sun begins to bronze their skin, Their eyes...
JeanJean, Juliette: Turn paler than the wind
JeanThe bargemen have stolen them away...

Le gosse (cabin boy)Pere Jules! We're in Paris! All hands on deck! The boss said to get a move on.
Le père Jules (old Jules)We're in a fix now. Head office wants to see us. We got a summons. And who'll straighten it out? Me, as usual! All because of that hussy!
