Keenan Wynn credited as playing...
Kovin
- Kovin: [taps charles with his pipe] You're not well Charles. You're not yourself... You know what ails you. Careful, Charles. Remember your special weakness.
- Prince Charles: [playing the melody to "climbing rose" on the piano] She's frightened, sad and hurt. Afraid to hope, expecting ridicule. A tender heart half afraid to love.
- Kovin: Oh, Careful, Charles.
- Prince Charles: [upset, he stops playing] Why be careful? Every man has his own special vulnerability. I once knew a man who couldn't resist fat women; women with rolls. Another who fell madly in love with everytime a woman slapped his face. Well this is mine.
- [smiles, and resumes playing, this time a more jovial variation of the tune]
- Prince Charles: Why go against nature?
- Cousin Loulou: I should like to present my cousin Mrs. Sonder, and her two daughters Birdena and Serafina.
- Kovin: [interrupts, elbowing his way between Birdena and the Widow] Charles. I beg your pardon.
- Birdena: It's a great privilege, Your Highness. I'm looking forward to hearing about your travels.
- Serafina: Oh yes! We're very fond of Paris.
- Prince Charles: Oh, you know Paris?
- Birdena: Oh, we don't precisely know Paris, but we're very devoted to it, aren't we, Cousin Loulou? It's so French!
