You can count on the count for scandal, so he bids adieu to Paris, urging it to stay the same while he leaves for Sylvania in shame (sort of); it is in Sylvania that he charms the unmarried Queen and so it seems the scandals are forgotten as she takes the husband of her dreams (in a singing voice so high-pitched, it’s enough to break a glass). A singing servant lightens the mood as the Count broods about his lack of things to do and one must wonder, with an accent like that, if Maurice Chevalier inspired Pepé Le Pew.
