the KM expectations of large CP asymmetries in $B$ decays are reviewed. I describe some observable signatures for the intervention of New Physics and list benchmarks defining the `ultimate' measurements in beauty physics. I also stress the need for dedicated searches for CP asymmetries in $D$ decays; attaining a sensitivity level of $10^{ -3}$ could well reveal New Physics and thus lead to a new paradigm.
