Not so Paul Reynaud, who had the unhappy faculty of finding himself in the same salon with both ladies. It is possible to suspect that Paul Reynaud, for all his intelligence, lacked organizing ability. This is confirmed on the political level...
...editor of wanting to fire him, and hurries around the island digging up bucketfuls of newsworthy dirt. This upsets the governor, who suspects that he is not popular in Whitehall but does not suspect that his handsome aide-de-camp is going to bed with the colored ex-mistress of the island's leading subversive...
