Mellie.

Mellie?

Is that the bus from Marseille stopping?

Yes, mother.

The hell it is. It never stops.

What are you looking at?
Is there a traveler?

Yes, mother.

Did he come on the bus?

The hell he did.
No one ever comes on the bus.

Then he must have ridden in...

On the rain.

That's the third in ten minutes.

I just do it so you'll have something
to say to me.

I've got to go get my dress.

Okay, I'm through.
There's five to be repaired.

What's wrong with that one?

- It turns over.
- The hell it does.

It's you that can't do anything right.

Well, go ahead, say it. I drink too much.

You drink too much, mother.

Hmm. I want to forget.

Forget what?

That men are pigs.

When are you taking my cars to be fixed?

- After tomorrow.
- Why not tomorrow?

Tomorrow I'm going to a wedding.

Why don't you admit it?
Your husband doesn't want you to see me.

He doesn't want me to come here.
That's not the same thing.

Besides, you're invited tomorrow too.

All you have to do is come.

In the marriage department
mine was enough for me.

Good night, mother.

Good night, darling.

No matter where they go,
the moon or Mars or whatever,

they'll never find anyone up there.

Nobody. So why bother?

- Did you get my bread?
- Yes.

It's over there.

- Nicole, it's too short.
- No.

Give me your shoes. Your big shoes!

Hey!

Doesn't your husband
like short skirts then?

Not on me.

When does he get back?

Tony? Tonight.

He's supposed to bring me back
a record from London.

Wait till you hear it. It's bestial!

What's a bestial record?

Why don't we swing along the road?

Why don't we swing along the road?

Hello?

I want the police station, please.

Your number, please?

Hello?

18... 18, cap des pins.

Just a moment, please.

Police station.

Hello? Hello? Speak up.

Hello? Who is this?

Is this 18, cap des pins?

Yes.

- Did you get the police station?
- Yes, thank you.

Hang on, please. London calling.
Go ahead, London.

Mellie?

Tony. It's you.

Of course it's me.

Aren't you coming back tonight?

Sure I am. We take off in 20 minutes.
I'll be home at 11:00.

Anything wrong?

No, everything's fine.

It doesn't sound that way.

Tony...

Can I pick you up at the airport?

No, a friend's driving me back.

Tony, let me come.

I said no.

Why?

The way you drive?

Listen, chicken, I assure you,
it isn't worth it.

Come, quickly.

You angry?

No. Just come, quickly

see you in a little while, chicken.

Come out of there!

Go away!

I won't tell anybody.

I won't press charges.

You heard me on the phone.

I didn't say anything.

No one will know.

Please!

Just... go... away!

License, please.

Is that you, Mellie?

It's Mrs. mau.
I went to school with her husband.

- Are you alone?
- Mm-hmm.

Where are you going?

To marignane.

To pick up Tony at the airport.

The reason I ask is,
we're looking for somebody.

A real nut. I wouldn't want you
to run into him, that's all.

- See anybody on the road?
- No.

Ha. Be careful. Good night, Mellie.

Mellie?

Mellie, is that you?

Yes, it's me.

Do you know what time it is?

- Where the hell were you?
- Tony, please.

Where were you?

I went to see mommy.

She went to see mommy.

I was going to see mommy.

But I had trouble.

With the car.

What kind of trouble?

Spark plugs.

Spark plugs?

You wouldn't know a spark plug
from a can of oil.

A fellow stopped and helped me.
He told me.

Where?

On the road to madrague.

Your mother didn't see you
on the way over.

I didn't come that way.

Do you know what my father would have done

if he caught my mother out once
at this hour, just once?

He would have given her a head like that!

I never saw my old man cook,
or touch a pan,

or even, I don't know what.

An egg! Do you hear me?

She never would have let him break an egg!

She'd have been ashamed!

Your mother was a Saint.

You can say that again.

Mellie wasn't that lucky.

Is that your dress for tomorrow?

Yes. I wanted to show it to mommy.

How does it look to you?

Dirty!

I'll wash it. It's easy.

And you'll have to replace the bottom
button. That's not quite so easy.

Now where are you going?

To check the furnace.

Please join hands.

I now pronounce you man and wife

in the name of the father,
the son, and the holy ghost, amen.

Hear us, o lord,
who made heaven and earth.

Lord, hear my prayers.

May my prayer reach thee.
Pray to the lord.

Bless, o lord, these rings
which we bless in thy name,

so those who wear them
may live in faithfulness.

That they may live in peace,
as is the will of god,

and that they may be bound in mutual love

in Jesus Christ our lord, amen.

Why did you kill him?

What do I win for a correct answer?

You don't. I win time.

I see.

Not a very profitable game.

Does it have anything to do with math?

With what?

With mathematics.

I'm a wiz at math.

It's only an American watch, that's all.

What did you think?

That you're an American. That's all.

Are you afraid of Americans?

No.

Only of watches.

Where do you live when you're at home?

My home is everywhere.

That's a nice spot.

Why didn't you stay there?

Ah, you know, same old urge.
Cherchez la femme!

You're not a policeman, by any chance?

Me? No.

Then you are out of luck.

I've already got a man.

I'm sorry, I must leave.

I don't have a car.
I'm told you might take me back.

Take you back where?
We're going to cap des pins.

That's exactly where I'm going.

My name is Harry dobbs.

Have you been here long?

Since this morning.

Where are you staying?

The palm hotel.

The palm hotel is closed.

They gave me a room.

It has nice, red curtains.

You here on business?

I guess you could call it that.

What kind of business?

Hunting.

Hunting?

There's no hunting around here.

Well, it depends on what you're hunting.

You never found that button, huh?

I'll get one from Nicole.

End of the line.

It's still a long way to the palm hotel.

We're not going to the palm hotel.

That enough?

Yes.

When are you coming back, Tony?

Saturday, around noon.

That's a lot of money to travel with.

That's my business.

Where are you going?

Djibouti.

And then where?

Cairo and Rome.

What's Djibouti like?

Like the rest.

What's the matter, Tony?

The guy who fixed your car last night,

was it Harry dobbs?

Who?

The American.

You never saw him before?

Why are you like this, Tony?
Why are you jealous?

A man who is not jealous is not a man.

Now what have I done?

I saw you dancing with him.

Do you know what my father used to say?

To my mother?

If somebody looks at you, tell me.

If somebody touches you, I kill him.

Give me that. I'll brush it.

I'll never dance again with anybody.

I promise.

All right.

I want to drive you
to the airport tomorrow.

All right.

I bet I can beat you. What do you say?

I've never done any bowling.

Who's talking about bowling?

Who let you in?

The door was open.

I went out to your house,
but you weren't home.

Where were you, Marseille?

You had just driven your husband
to the airport.

But the drive back took a long time.

What were you doing?

You were reading every newspaper
that was out.

Too bad there was nothing about the body

they discovered on the beach
yesterday morning.

What do you want from me?

Conversation.

We said everything we had to say to
each other at the wedding yesterday.

Yesterday I didn't know
about you having such a fancy house.

It's a very nice house.

Your husband, he's a pilot, isn't he?

Navigator.

They must do pretty good.
How much is it he makes?

What do you want to talk to me about?

Let's talk about the man...

Who got off the bus in the rain.

Your mother mentioned that.

That's true.

I saw a stranger get off the bus.

So what? I scarcely noticed him.

You saw him again after that.

That's not true.

It is true.

You were undressed in a dress shop...

About to try on a new dress,
and there he was on the sidewalk.

His eyes were staring at you, watching.

I got that from Nicole.
She tells me a lot.

You know Nicole?

Oh, I met a lot of people
since arriving here.

You told me you weren't a cop.

Why are you so interested in this man?

You told me you were great at mathematics.

This man is a very interesting man.

Not to me.

I didn't know they were going to kill him,

or come around asking me questions.

Or anything.

That's true...

But now make a big effort.

When this man was outside the shop window,
looking at you...

Wasn't he holding something in his hands?

You know damn well what.
All you do is lie.

You really forgot about the bag.

You don't know what happened to it!

Why should I know?

What do I care about this man?

I've been checking around.

So what!

There's only one explanation.

You drove him home in your car.

Because nobody goes anywhere
around here without wheels.

You do.

Ah, but I've got a car.

You didn't have it last night.

I only said I didn't.

It's the red one.

I like red.

Hey, that cost me money.

I'll give it back to you.

Go.

I'm going to get that bag, Mellie.

There are not too many places
he could have put it.

The bar perhaps...

Or maybe, the railway station.

Leave me alone.

I want that bag.

Before then, no peace for you.

You think about it.

It's far better for you
if I get it before the police.

Leaving?

I saw your car outside.

I wanted to ask you something.

Yes?

You see...

About that poker game
we're supposed to have,

when Tony gets back, Saturday,
at your place.

I've lost a lot this winter, Mellie.

I'd rather talk to you about it,
because Tony will listen to you.

And besides, it's easier to say it to you.

Well, you see, what I need is, sort of a

loan, you might call it.

I mean, if Tony doesn't mind.
I don't want to bother him.

Why, no, of course not.

I'll tell him. I'm sure he won't mind.

Thanks, Mellie.

You know that fellow
who was found dead yesterday morning?

Used to be a boxer. Bruno sacchi.

Didn't you know about it?

I saw the papers yesterday.

Today there wasn't a word.

No more said till we've got the murderess.

- Murderess?
- Yes, they already know it's a woman.

They've got ways, I'm telling you.

So long, Mellie.
See you Saturday. And thanks.

Everybody is a liar.

Me, when I speak,

I never know if I really mean what I say.

I was just looking for you.

You're kidding.

You said you'd leave me alone
when you got the bag.

Here it is.

Bravo!

The man who owned this red bag
visited your house, Mellie.

It's not true.

Oh, I can't leave you alone now, Mellie.

That is your address, isn't it?

Give me back that photo.

It's worth a lot of money to me, Mellie.

I am hungry. You buy lunch.

You expect me to eat that?

Americans live on ketchup and milk.

I'm a wiz at geography.

Mellie.

Mellie is the diminutive of what?

Mélancolie.

They wanted to name me Mélanie
after my grandmother,

but when my father went to register
my name at the town hall,

he suddenly said: "No, not Mélanie.
Don't put down Mélanie."

But the clerk had already
started to write.

He didn't want to erase anything.

So they called me...

Mélancolie.

Eat. It's getting cold.

Your father sounds like quite a guy.

He left when I was nine.
He never came back.

What's that?

A present.

From friends of Tony's,
in Hong Kong, or someplace.

Tony must have friends all over the place.

When was this picture taken, love love?

Let me see it and I'll tell you.

Uh-uh, love love.

I think it was last year.

But that doesn't mean
Tony knew this Bruno sacchi.

You seem to know his name all right.

I just heard it.

I don't think he was a friend
of your husband's.

Otherwise, he wouldn't need
a picture to identify him.

Impeccable logic.

I'm a wiz at logic.

But in certain professions,
it's better not to be logical.

That guy didn't arrive by chance
Tuesday night.

He came on business.

Now it's up to you to tell me
what happened

when he found you alone in the house.

Will you have some coffee before you go?

I'm not going anyplace.

I have all the time in the world.

You don't think you're going to stay here,
do you?

Where would you have me go? To the police?

Why are you doing this?

A man's got to make a living.

Suppose I see two, three or four of you,
Mr. dobbs.

What good will that do?

You'll pick one of us
to be your confessor.

Drink up, love love.

There are people in the villa up the hill.

If I scream, they'll hear me.

Okay.

I already checked it.

There's nobody there,
just like Tuesday when you killed the guy.

That's not true.

I won't drink it.

You don't have to, love love.

Just tell me what took place Tuesday.

All right, then drink it.
I won't ask you again.

You pull a trick like that again, and I'm
going to spank your bottom for you.

You'll what?

I'll turn you over my knee,
and paddle your bottom for you!

All of it.

Tony's got a nice place here.

The marines and the aviators,
they've got it pretty good.

A girl in every port,
a deal in every airport.

I know Tony.

And I know sacchi.

Would you like me to tell you about him?

It might... make you thirsty.

He was a great case for analysis.

A liar, thief, sadist, and a sex maniac.

But he had his good points.

A trick, for instance, with nuts.

He explained about nut throwing.
A remarkable thing.

Take a chance.

Hard.

You got it bad, all right, love love.

They say that when the pane breaks,
that means you're in love.

Get the hell out of here.

Tony has nothing to do
with any sacchis or Harry dobbses.

There's a name for what you're doing.

Assisting a murderess?

Blackmail!

I'm the one who's going to the police.

You hear me?

I'm going to the police!
I'm going to the police.

What was Bruno sacchi's racket?

I'm not an information center, Mellie.

Please, answer me, Mr. dobbs.

All Tony's brought back
from his trips since last summer

was curtains for the house.

Or records, for our friend.

You can't hide anything
in a record jacket, can you?

Nicole.

Hi, Mellie.

I'll be with you in a second.

What's the matter with you?

Double crosser.

What have you and my husband been up to?

All right, I admit it.

I went to bed with Tony.

You know what I was?

I was a one-night stand for two nights.

It was a whim, Mellie. I swear it.

It never meant a damn thing to him.

It was my fault.

I don't know what hit me.

It was twice I said!

What did you learn
from your friend Nicole?

Nothing that would interest you,
Mr. dobbs.

Tony cheated on me with her.

But I don't care.

What's the money for?

Because I'm not sure of anything anymore.

Please, give me that picture, Mr. dobbs.

That's all I had in my account.

But I've got more at home.
I'll give it to you.

Now I've got something for you.

I guess you can pay for it.

Since you're the one
that's going to drink it.

Are you getting to like it?

My mother told me it made you forget.

Forget what?

That men are pigs.

She ought to know.

She's a wiz at infidelity and alcohol.

The only difference is,
she's the one who cheated on daddy.

Well, Mr. dobbs, pick it up.

For a price like this,
murder's not cheap, love love.

I'm buying peace of mind for my husband.

And that's all.

You're kidding.
What's he got to worry about?

Until he comes back, I won't know a thing.

I'm buying time, Mr. dobbs.

Here! Pick it up and keep it.

Do you think it want
your housekeeping money? Not me.

I don't understand... anything.

It's pretty simple.
I don't like blackmailing, that's all.

Then... who are you?

Your partner, love love.

You know, I spent more than a week
covering the greater part of Germany

and most of France,
looking for Mr. sacchi.

Why?

To kill him.

You can imagine how surprised I was
when I arrived and found...

That a very good friend
had filled in for me.

The only thing is,
it was the work of an amateur.

If it was me, I would have
grabbed the money he carried.

You have any idea
what our partnership is worth?

Name a figure, love love.

$60,000 in big bills.

Why, it wouldn't take up
any more space than that.

Didn't the police find that money on him?

No, and they didn't find it
in his sack either.

And I'm pretty sure you don't have it.

Well then?

Well, then I want you to tell me
exactly how you killed him.

I'll take care of the rest.

I've never killed anybody.

I've wasted enough time with you,
love love.

It's almost six o'clock now.

That big clock in the entry
is about to strike 6:00.

I'm giving you until the last stroke
to tell me that you killed him...

Otherwise, I kill you.

I swear, I'm telling you the truth.

So am 1.

I don't believe you.

Same here.

Bravo.

But you must have seen
that the gun was empty.

Love love, you deserve a big drink.

On the rocks.

Please.

How did you get to cap des pins?

I had a talk with the bus driver.

And the wedding?

Your friend Nicole told me you'd be there.

She's not my friend. She's a saxophone.

A what?

When I want to say a dirty word,

I say saxophone.

Maybe sacchi didn't have the money
by the time he got here?

He paid for his bus ticket with this.

What does that prove?

Bring your whiskey.

I'm going to show you something.

There is a box in this drawer
with two cartridges missing.

You don't say.

I searched the house
while you were at the airport.

There are two cartridges missing.

You bought a new box this morning.

Finish it.

And this rifle...

Anybody can see
that it was fired recently.

An expert would say
the day before yesterday.

Well, come on, say it isn't true.

It is true.

You admit it?

Sure.

The day before yesterday, I shot...

A couple of rats in the cellar.

Rats!

Come on, love love. Come on.

Those rats. They were this high?

And this high?

They were jumping.

Oh, come on, love love.

Even for the dumbest cop,
this would constitute proof.

And I'm not even a cop.
I am a future millionaire.

Hey, now, wait a minute.

I'm going to waste a future millionaire.

And I'm not waiting for any clock!

Stop right there! Stop right there.

Well, go for your gun, Mr. dobbs.

I did not kill sacchi.

Now, where's your proof?

Pull that up.

Pull it up!

Whose work is that?

Tony hit me. Last night.

Tony? Why?

He saw me dancing with you.

Saxophone.

Tony's coming back tonight.
He'll show you.

He's not like me. He can fight.

So can I.

Tony won't be back
until the day after tomorrow.

You won't last that long, love love.

The day daddy went away,
I found a coin on the floor.

The door was bolted,

so we got a neighbor
to break it down for us.

Inside the room, you should have seen it.

He'd even taken the mattress cover
for a knapsack.

I'm not kidding, Mr. dobbs.

The mattress cover.

Why did he leave?

Because I saw mommy in bed
with another man.

What do I care.

Daddy kept asking me and asking me.

I couldn't stand it anymore.

So I told him.

Then he went away.

Since then, no one's called me mélancolie.

Okay, okay.

It's my own fault.

I've got the picture, love love.

You told something once,
and it didn't work out.

Now you can't ever tell again.

If I'd killed him,
I'd gone straight to the police.

No, I doubt it.

Not after what he'd done to you.

Women who are attacked
seldom go to the police.

Psychology?

Statistics.

Someone's coming to rescue me.

Who can it be, Mr. dobbs?

Don't move.

Mellie? Where are you?

Mellie, I know you're here.

Mellie, please speak to me.

I'm sorry, Mellie.
I thought you'd be alone.

Mellie is busy tonight.

This house is like my life.

Two days ago...

Everything was in order.

Now... we... break the doors...

Shoot off guns in the cellar...

Drain bottles...

Kiss anybody.

Do you know why I kissed you, Mr. dobbs?

Because you're in love with me?

Bravo.

You're going to say you kissed me
because you wanted to bug Nicole.

That's part of it, I guess.

But the fact is, you didn't want
anybody else joining in our party.

You don't want anyone else to know.

Love love?

Did you take my cars to be fixed?

Vroom-vroom. My cars.

I forgot.

Where are they?

In my car.

I'll take them today.

The hell you will.

This yours?

Starting a collection?

I let women in my room for only
one reason, and I decide who!

You keep snooping in my house.

Yesterday morning you swiped a picture
of my husband and put it in that bag.

Even that bag is yours.

You checked it at the station.

And you made it all up.

Tony never had anything to do with it.

That's right.

But if you know that,
that means you found the real bag.

No, I just figured it out.

Now I know what you are.

Colonel dobbs. A cop.

Wrong.

Let's just say I'm pursuing
a parallel investigation.

Why?

Nobody explains why in the army.

I want to find out the facts
and file a report.

And that's all.

And the facts you'll tell me right now.

But I'll make it easy for you.

I'll tell you.

Tuesday night,

a stranger attacked you in your own home.

And you were frightened.

He had slipped a stocking over his head.

For a while, you tried to defend yourself,

but all of a sudden, he hit you like that!

You see.

And now I'll give you a few details
of what happened next.

He always stays in the house afterwards.

I know that guy. I've read his file.

You found him in the cellar
and you killed him.

Oh, I can prove it.

You made a telephone call
to the police station,

but right away you canceled it.

I got that from the operator.

That night you tried
to dispose of the body,

but you were stopped by a roadblock.

I got that from the police.

You told the police you were going
to the airport to pick up your husband.

A lie, no truth in it at all.

I got that from your mother.

The hell you did.

No one ever gets anything from my mother.

Let me ask you something, Mr. dobbs.

If you know everything,

if you have all the proof you need,

why go through all this rigmarole with me?

You've done all you could
to make me confess,

so there must be a very important piece
missing from your Jigsaw.

Which one, Mr. dobbs?

Bravo!

I didn't kill him, Mr. dobbs.

Would you let an innocent woman
take the rap for you?

They arrested sacchi's mistress.

That's not true.

It is true.

And right now, they're on the beach
where they found the body. Go have a look.

If she's innocent,
nothing will happen to her.

Don't you bet on it.

Even her best friends are after blood.
Do you know why?

They think she's got the $60,000.

What beach?

Do you think the body swam far?

I don't think anything.

I don't know.

It's a beach named la pelouque.

- Toussaint?
- Huh?

- I have to tell you something.
- Sorry, Mellie, not right now.

Toussaint, who is that woman?

The victim's girlfriend.

She rented a house over there.
Her name's Madeleine legauff.

Doesn't she live here anymore?

No. They flew her back
from Paris last night.

She's a waitress
at the Eiffel Tower restaurant.

But then why was she arrested?

Because she was seen in the vicinity
at the time of the murder.

Say, Mellie, you're certainly
interested in this case, eh?

Go away.

Stop watching me.

Do you hear?

Go away.

Out of my way!

I lost my keys.

She's taken a plane for Paris.

Did you notify your men there?

I can't have my people involved.

All we can do is have her tailed at orly.

Frankly, I don't think much
of your methods, colonel dobbs.

Well, that's your problem.

You know the body that was found
at cap des pins

isn't the man you're looking for.

That corpse was over a year old.

So how does this young woman fit in?

The fact that she confused the two

makes it pretty clear
that the man I'm after is also dead.

You can't prove that. You could be wrong.

No, I'm not wrong.

Do you realize what you've exposed her to?

Sacchi and Madeleine legauff's friends

aren't what you would
call respectable people.

If they get ahold of her,
you're in trouble, colonel.

That's my problem.

How much of a start has she got on me?

Her plane should be landing about now.

Madame mélancolie mau,

arriving from Marseille-marignane,

please go to the information desk.

I had an appointment with Tania legauff.

I know. Your bag and your coat?

No, thank you. I'll hold onto them.

I wasn't asking you.

This way, please.

Tania legauff?

Are you the one who phoned me?

How did you find me?

I went to the Eiffel Tower

and then to a photographer
who gave me your number.

I don't have much time.

I have to catch a plane back.

You've sure gone
to a lot of trouble to see me.

They arrested your sister last night.

I know she didn't do it.

So what?

What do you mean, so what?

She's your sister!

So what?

I want them to let her go. You understand?

They've got to let her go!

My sister is a lucky woman.

I haven't the slightest idea
what you've come here about.

Sit down.

Tell me who you are.

Give me your hand.

You know what it means
when a girl gnaws her fingernails?

Don't be like that.

It's not a sin, you know.

I didn't come here to talk about sin.

When people gnaw their nails,
it's not what you think.

It means they haven't grown up

and they've got more imagination
than is good for them.

Hmm?

Where was your sister Tuesday night?

Mado? Here, as usual.

Here? In Paris?

Why didn't you say that to the police?

Think the police ought to know
about this place?

Well?

First, I ought to know where I am.

Who was your sister with Tuesday night?

People.

I want to see them.

That's easy.

Here she is.

I've been playing dolls.

The dolls they make these days talk.

What does yours say?

She asks questions.

Now, where were we?

Daddy took a powder,
with the mattress cover,

so she took a plane
with $60,000 in an envelope.

Where is the envelope?

I mailed it.

Who did you mail it to?

To myself. At cap des pins.

Off with her head.

You flew to Paris

so you could send yourself
an envelope to cap des pins?

Is that it?

No.

There were two men, following me at orly.

I had to get rid of that money.

Why were they following you?

Because of Harry dobbs.

Harry dobbs?

And will you be good enough
to tell me who that is?

An American colonel.

It gets curiouser and curiouser.

What could you have in common with sacchi?

Can you describe him for us.

He was a big man.

That's all?

Give me my coat.

I'll show you something.

When the pane breaks, you are in love.

That's what he always said.

Where is she?

Where is she?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Tell him to drop it.

Drop it.

You boys leave me alone,
I'll leave you alone.

Okay.

I'm glad to see you again, Mr. dobbs.

Me too, love love.

Since you're not a figment of this
little lady's imagination, Mr. dobbs,

perhaps you'll tell me what the game is.

I haven't set eyes on Mr. sacchi
for over a year.

So what's she doing here?

It's all a mistake.

I dreamed up the whole thing.

Anything else, sir?

Yeah, send up some coffee
about eight o'clock, will you?

Yes, sir. Thank you.

You got to get home before your husband,
love love.

I'm taking you back.

You hear?

By this evening I'll be a winner, Gunther.

No, she's here.

Okay. See you.

You ought to eat something.

I heard what you said.

Well, it's my job, love love.

Do you always live here?

I live in Germany.

But all hotel rooms look alike.

I saw a photograph
of a little boy in your suitcase.

Is he your son?

Yes.

You're married?

No.

But I always keep my children.

Are you really so sure you're a winner,
Mr. dobbs?

It was a mistake to use that word.

I didn't kill him.

Can you get dressed by yourself?

Mellie.

You're waiting for me.

I wanted to speak to you.

Before you see the house.

I had a terrible fight with mommy.

Awful.

She even broke a door.

A door? What was it about?

My father.

Ah, come on, chicken,
don't worry about the door.

I haven't got much time.
I'm leaving tonight.

- No!
- Yes.

Hundred francs.

Call you and raise you.

Without me.

Call you, and raise you ten back.

Call.

Flush to the nine.

Mélancolie ma...

Since when do you send yourself letters?

Mélancolie.

You know,
I've always been fond of your name.

I guess I've just been saving it...

For when you are a big girl.

What did you say?

Nothing.

This came for you.

It's your handwriting, isn't it?

What time is it?

You've slept all afternoon.

Is this the door I broke?
Wow! I'm pretty strong.

You didn't tell Tony?

What do you think?

Besides, you forget everything these days.

What have I done now?

Toussaint asked you to talk to Tony.
About a loan.

Saxophone! I forgot.

Mmm.

Is he mad?

No, he's in a good mood tonight.

The woman they arrested
has confessed everything.

Afternoon, Mellie.

Toussaint!

Phew! It's hot, eh?

I'm sorry. I completely forgot.

It doesn't matter. I'm winning today.

Well, I'm sorry.

Thanks.

She didn't look guilty, somehow.

Listen, Mellie.
She killed her lover for money

and planted him at la pelouque.

Period.

The body was... buried?

Yes.

- When?
- Last year.

Colonel dobbs said...

I guess I got things mixed up.

He has nothing to do with it.

He's after a mental patient,
who escaped from a military hospital.

In Germany.

Sent up three times for rape.

Only this time,
he got away with the cashbox too!

You got some more beer?

And you're conducting an investigation?

An investigation? What for?

Dobbs is convinced that his loony
is back in action around here.

And got himself killed.
But there have been no charges.

And there is no body.

I even bet him ten bills
he's still on the run.

There's no more beer, huh?

I'll go get some.

Those Americans are too much.

They're looking for a brand-new corpse.

They ask for some dogs from toulon.

And what happens? They dig up an old one!

It's funny, huh?

Well, I was right, love love.

You drove him home in your car
Tuesday night.

But you didn't know it.

I hate you. You're a liar and a cheat.

You had nothing on me, nothing.

You drummed it all up.

You, and your cheshire cat smile.

From the moment I saw you look
at the newspaper in the church,

I knew I'd win.

Sure you did.

You led me right to Mac guffin.

Who?

Your victim. His name was Mac guffin.

I'm sure he's down there somewhere.

I'm gonna have to have the bottom dragged.

I wanted a breath of air.

Even if you find him there,
that's no proof.

Aw, love love.

That bag you have on your lap,
that's pretty good proof.

What bag? I don't have any bag.

They're leaving.

I could stay here tonight if you like.

No.

I'm just a bit tired, that's all.

Mellie...

What have I done now?

Nothing, darling.

What is it?

It's toussaint.

His siren is stuck.

Well, I'm leaving for London tonight.

- Want to stay with her?
- The hell I do.

You're taking her with you.

Taking her with me?

What's the occasion?

I know mélancolie.

She'll find an occasion
before I get to the gate.

She's a wiz.

I'll toot toot at the gate.

Listen, chicken, it's crazy.

Crazy or not,

you're taking me with you.

In London...

I want to talk to you.

He was caught on the rocks.
It would have been months

before he got to the surface.

You win, colonel.

If he did attack a woman around here
and got shot,

you've had it, colonel.

Why?

Well, because...

He won't talk anymore.

How will you find out what happened?

Read my report.

You finished your job?

I got the money, I got the body,
and I've got enough for my report.

You can't expect to find all the facts,
though.

As far as I'm concerned,

Mac guffin will be the only one
to have the whole truth.

Aw, you ought to let your nails grow,
love love.

Adieu.

Mr. dobbs...

Just now... mommy called me mélancolie.

That's great!
