What on earth's going on there? |

I don't know, my dear. |

Pardon, pardon, monsieur. Pardon, madame. Have you not heard? |

We hear very little, and we understand even less. |

Two German couriers were found murdered in the desert. The unoccupied desert.
This is the customary roundup of refugees, liberals, and uh, of course,
beautiful young girls for Monsieur Renault, the Prefect of Police. |
| EUROPEAN |
|
|
Unfortunately, along with these unhappy refugees the scum of Europe has
gravitated to Casablanca. Some of them have been waiting years for a visa.
I beg of you, monsieur, watch yourself. Be on guard. This place is full
of vultures. Vultures everywhere, everywhere. |
| ENGLISHMAN |
|
|
Ha, ha. Thank you, thank you very much. |
| EUROPEAN |
|
|
Not at all. Au revoir, monsieur. Au revoir, madame. |
| ENGLISHMAN |
|
|
Au revoir. Amusing little fellow. Waiter! |
| ENGLISHMAN |
|
|
Oh. How silly of me. |
