He distances himself from his wife when he is told of her (unwitting, but he's not told that) contribution to the execution of the Marquis de St. Cyr. * [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Sir Percy * [[Dressing Asas the Enemy]]: A ruse often used by the Pimpernel and his associates. * [[Flynning]]: During the duel between Chauvelin and the Pimpernel. * [[The French Revolution]] Line 28: * [[Master of Disguise]]: The Pimpernel himself. * [[My God, What Have I Done?]]: Marguerite * [[~~Near Villain Victory~~Eucatastrophe]]: Followed by the Pimpernel revealing that he's been in control of the situation for quite some time, and was merely letting things progress in order to be polite. {{quote\| "My dear chap! I never would have dreamt of depriving you of your moment of triumph. Alas, a moment was all I could spare."}} * [[Obfuscating Stupidity]] * [[Produce Pelting]]: The crowd around the guillotine throw vegetables at the aristos. Line 45: * [[Swashbuckler]]: Particularly at the climax. * [[Sword Cane]]: Sir Percy has one. * [[Two Aliases, One Character]] * [[When the Clock Strikes Twelve]]: A dramatic sequence revolves around Chauvelin knowing that the Pimpernel will be in a particular place at midnight.
