Count Alexei:
At last, Your Majesty, I've achieved the enviable privilege of entering these rooms. Princess Sophia Frederica:
I seem to have a faint recollection that you had that privilege before. Count Alexei:
Not since the days of Her Late Majesty, whom I often visited in the capacity of a trusted admirer. Princess Sophia Frederica:
Tell the others I've retired. Send them away. And come back in here. Count Alexei:
[to the people waiting outside Catherine's rooms]
Her Majesty wishes to be alone. You may retire. Princess Sophia Frederica:
Tell me, Alexei, are you still fond of me? Count Alexei:
Yes, Your Imperial Majesty. I love you. But I'm completely bewildered by your attitude towards me. However, I've become accustomed to regard you as one of those extraordinary women who create their own laws and logic. And now I'm concerned only with your safety. Princess Sophia Frederica:
Is it my safety that concerns you, or the safety of an empress? Count Alexei:
I would give my life, Your Imperial Majesty, if the woman I adore were not so far removed from me in station. Princess Sophia Frederica:
The woman you adore is quite close to you, isn't she? Count Alexei:
Catherine, I love you, worship you. Princess Sophia Frederica:
I asked you here tonight because I want you to do something for me. I can trust you, can't I? We'll always be friends, won't we? Count Alexei:
Yes, Your Imperial Majesty. What is it you require? Princess Sophia Frederica:
Blow out the candles. Behind the mirror, as you know, there's a flight of stairs. Down below, someone is waiting to come up. Will His Excellency be kind enough to open the door for him carefully so that he can sneak in? Count Alexei:
[Count Alexei finds Captain Orloff at the foot of the stairs]
Her Imperial Majesty is waiting for you, Captain. Capt. Gregori Orloff:
Yes sir. Thank you, sir. Count Alexei:
Will you deliver a message for me, Captain? Capt. Gregori Orloff:
I would be very glad to, sir. Count Alexei:
Tell Her Imperial Majesty that I quite understand now. No, never mind. Don't Tell Her anything. She'll know. Capt. Gregori Orloff:
Yes, sir
