本片只是电影《穿越大吉岭》的一个附带短片，影院里难觅踪影，基本只会出现在网络和日后发行的DVD中。它主要讲述了《穿》中的一位主人公与其前女友在巴黎旅馆里重逢的故事。短片与《穿》的联系并不是很密切，导演也自称这段拍摄纯属玩票性质。
A short epilogue of one heartbreaking history of love and the prologue of the travel told in The Darjeeling Limited.
【短片:13分钟】

Three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other -- to become brothers again like they used to be. Their "spiritual quest", however, veers rapidly off-course (due to events involving over-the-counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray).

Royal Tenenbaum and his wife Etheline had three children and then they separated. All three children are extraordinary --- all geniuses. Virtually all memory of the brilliance of the young Tenenbaums was subsequently erased by two decades of betrayal, failure, and disaster. Most of this was generally considered to be their father's fault. "The Royal Tenenbaums" is the story of the family's sudden, unexpected reunion one recent winter.
