The PM emerged with the girl after about 20 minutes; the young lady seemed very much overcome by all this, and so the PM said that she would return in an hour or so. We all played diplomatic footsie in the meantime, discussing such delights as extraterritoriality and extradition - both subjects which Biron, when he worked them out, was somewhat horrified with. The honour of France came out with a frequency that even de Gaulle wouldn't have managed. Of course, the honour of France wasn't in question, although I dreaded to think what the redtops would come out with when the story broke. The French had acted very well, but there were clearly issues; Chatillion was a magnate - although not a big influence at court - but we knew there was a court party who resented Fleury, and a reactionary court party which disliked us intensely. Whilst we appreciated the Cardinal's firm resolve and pragmatism, others in France did not and a political storm awaited him on his return.
