Everyone has gone — even the Gavinis; we see no one; my studio is being put in order, it is nearly finished, one can work there.
[Tout le monde est parti, même les Gavini; nous ne voyons personne; mon atelier s'arrange, c'est presque fini, on peut y travailler.]
Julian is in Marseille — he has lost his uncle, who adored him — and Tony has just seen his brother-in-law Desmares the oculist die. It is tiresome.
[Julian est à Marseille, il a perdu son oncle qui l'adorait, et Tony vient de voir mourir son beau-frère Desmares l'oculiste. C'est ennuyeux.]
