Do you live in Paris?

Sometimes.

Shall we meet again?

Perhaps.

I love bad encounters.

CHEATING

EDITING: KENOUT PELTIER

PRODUCED BY DENISE PETITDIDER

A YANNICK BELLON FILM

Please.

Nathalie?

-You smell of wine, my love.
-Sure, I've been drinking all day.

What about you? Tell me.

How was Paris?

The usual,

marathons in the corridors
of ministries, routine.

No births, no deaths,

no important phone calls?

Nothing,

except the harvest,
which is going well.

I'll need to talk to you
about something.

You seem very well-behaved.

Haven't you finished your homework?

Hi, Dad.

I'm doing drawings.

The Americans asked me
to look after a grand cru there.

Six months in California next year.

Isn't that tempting?

The French brain drain
to the United States.

Brain drain, I don't know.
A nose, at best.

Nose drain?

What's left for us?

Can you pass me the towel?

I won't let you go,

I'll give your description

to border control.

Oh!

I'll wear a fake beard.

Reminds me of

a certain Christmas morning
at the town hall.

You impressed me
with your big white beard.

LE PARADIS

Hi.

This blonde is superb.

It was exactly my color
when I was a kid.

I looked like an angel.

Unfortunately, at puberty,

I went horribly dark.

I too was blonde as a child.

O, lost blondeness,

gone forever.

It's not my twenties I regret,
it's being ten.

No need to shave every day,

courting truckers

that break your heart...

A seraphic life without depravity.

It's serious
to leave food lying around

in the dressing room.

There are lots of mice lurking in
that box.

Oh!

Since my cat died

I've been helpless.

I had a cat that I took everywhere,

very fierce.

His name was Attila.

Who told you that?

Don't you recognize me?

My little butcher boy

who wanted to make movies.

I'm so sorry.

I haven't made any films,

but you see, I held on to the stage.

Well said, my boy.

The applause,
the bravos, we can't do without them

once you've tasted it.

Yes?

-The baron's here.
-Ah, the baron's here.

For my pay,

it's three weeks overdue.
Do what's necessary.

OK?

Don't get into too much trouble.
You're beautiful.

Do you believe in homeopathy?

Well, well, well!

Why do you always look so mysterious?

I am mysterious.

You're in luck.

Young people should be told
to choose their faces carefully

because afterwards,
it's hard to change.

I've always been a joker,

it's too late to change.

Rest assured,
tonight you're not very funny.

You say that to please me.

-Stripping?
-No.

-A naked woman?
-No.

Well, all the same.

And what does that woman do?

Does she have a cooing accent?

Yes.

Does she like pretty boys?

Yes, and that's fine.

Then it's Dalida.

It's Dalida,
ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it!

I am every woman

I lived your joys and melodramas

I'm sentimental

And sometimes a femme fatale too

Let me be condemned

If my heart catches fire

In front of the spotlights

Which aim at my heart
Every night

I'm all women

I love glitter, rhinestones
Telegrams Telescopes

Premiere evenings

The front page, and the last

And my life as a star

Finished in the dark

She was twice the age of the role,

but she was a star.

Yes.

We've forgotten all about her.

Say,

in fact,

did you see Aiglon again?

He advertises toothpaste on TV.

Ah!

He had beautiful teeth,
the little scoundrel.

-Will you come over for a drink?
-No,

not tonight.

Would you excuse me?

It's so strange to see you again
after such a long time.

Yes.

-You haven't changed.
-Yes, I have.

Two heart attacks,

my liver going,
my memory going haywire,

you know, life.

A tale told by an idiot,

full of sound and fury

signifying nothing.

Goodnight.

Jean!

-Hi.
-Hi.

You look good.

-The jacket!
-What?

The beautiful jacket!

Where's it from?

-Show me the brand.
-Does that concern you at 2 a.m.?

Want to see my shoes?

I'm asking the brand,
show me the brand.

Tonight,
I danced with a drunk captain.

He told me
how to navigate by the stars.

He had a beautiful voice.

There are no stars tonight.

You should have taken him home.

I like it when you're jealous.

It means you care about me.

If I died, would you be sad?

You look wild like that,
but it's just a cover-up.

Last night you had a nightmare.

You screamed and woke me up.

I never remember dreams.

-Where's Lefèvre?
-He's sick,

Hong Kong flu.

I hope he'll send us some postcards.

The truck driver is no longer
in custody.

I'll see him in five minutes.

So, Villedieu?

-How are you today?
-Very good, chief.

Speak English if you want
to make progress.

-Very well, chief.
-Good.

Did you sleep well?

-Did you have sweet dreams?
-Beautiful dreams, chief.

What did you do yesterday night?

Yesterday night,

the presenter of
the Paradis was murdered.

What? Speak French.

Jean Morane, the Paradis presenter,

on the quayside.

We'll take a look around.

There's a lot going on at the docks
when it comes to cruising.

If I were in your shoes,
commissioner.

I'd stay here
and you'd stay where you are.

A pound of coke
was found in his home.

Quite a lot for personal consumption.

You don't need me anymore,
Commissioner?

No. Villedieu,

see him for his deposition.

-Have a drink, Commissioner.
-No, thank you.

We saw everyone.

It's Bernard. He's late, of course.

He always does as he pleases.

Do you have anything
to say about Jean Morane?

Why? Are you looking for an epitaph?

When life has finished playing,
death puts everything in place.

Life is fun.

Death cleans up.

It's beautiful. Did you write it?

No, Jacques Prévert,

who didn't have a passion for cops.

A few years ago,
the corpse was discovered...

of a notary
in the case of a double bass.

Since then,
I've always wanted to open them.

Go ahead. If it turns out to be true,
there's a surprise in store.

Sorry,

I can't help you.

It's a nice place to flirt.

The submarine base was built
by Spanish prisoners in 1940.

My father was in it.

My father built it.

As a thank you,
he was sent for deportation.

You must have things to tell me.

I've told too many stories.
Now I'm completely burnt out.

Who killed Morane?

It's you and your bullshit.

When you nabbed the Italian
at the airport,

the other realized there were leaks.

He thought it was Morane.

And you didn't upset him.

And?

Let me get this straight, Morane,

he went down for you.

Well done.

We're glad you're still with us.

If you could just forget about me
for a moment...

Now that we've shot Morane,

if you keep getting dates, they'll
figure out where it's coming from.

Don't be afraid like that.

We'd like to keep you.

You're funny.

The commissioner has to understand

that I can't get any more involved.

Are you kidding?

Your little services mean a lot
to us.

Come on!

Yes!

Come on!

Come on, Dad.

-Let's go see them.
-No, they're not ours.

Yes, it is.

You play rugby, chief?

I played third line,
but that's all over now.

-I play.
-You play?

I'm sure you're good.
What's your name?

Thomas.

Do you want to meet the team?

That's big Momo,

little cuddly toy,

and Titi, the mascot.
Kiss him for luck.

Hi, kid.

Drinking with the winners?

What are you doing
with these bastards?

Sorry about that.
Gentlemen, congratulations again.

-Thank you.
-Bye.

Until next time.

My niece Caroline, the teacher,

came to see me the other day
at the office

with her students
for her civics class.

She also wanted them
to meet police officers.

Yes.

I said I'd work it out
with my son-in-law.

-You wouldn't mind?
-No.

Here we are.

Only children love the police.

I recognize your pessimism.

Protecting citizens
who don't like you,

that's your greatness.

I spoke
to your divisional officer about you.

Lenormand.

He's a rugby fan, like you.

He told me that after the match
you went

to congratulate the winners,

traitor that you are.

I've defended you, but your fair play
will be your undoing.

Hi, Dad.

Pops!

What else did he find?

I don't know.

I found a mole in the garden.

You found a mole?

-What color?
-Black.

Yes, it's a mole.

We've heard a lot about you,
about the Bordeaux witch affair.

Have you been following that?

It's a completely incredible affair

with miners, black masses.

It was a real crowd-pleaser.

We received hundreds
of anonymous letters.

I'm keeping them.

One day I hope

to do an anthology
of anonymous letters,

if a publisher is interested,
after my retirement.

An anonymous letter
gives me the pleasure of being...

among you?

This was found
on Jean Morane's bedside table.

That's when I arrived
in Bordeaux two years ago.

Apart from the Paradis, did you have
any dealings with Jean Morane?

No business relationship,
if that's what you mean.

I'm not into coke.

-Can I take one?
-Yes.

Thank you.

We don't have much information
on him.

I thought you might be able...

to help us.

Why should I help you?

Well... I don't know.

Maybe because I scare you.

No?

Maybe because you like me.

I don't dislike you.

What do you want to know?

If I slept with him?

Come in.

I hear you've agreed
that that class...

Yes, excuse me, Villedieu, I forgot
to tell you.

This is the Lacanau school.
Hello, Caroline, how are you?

Show them around a bit,

show them, tell them about the work.

If you'll excuse me,
Caroline, I'm in a meeting

with a suspect.

Come with me.

Enjoy yourselves.

She's my father-in-law's niece.

I'll leave you to your large family.

I'm sorry to have bothered you
for nothing.

It's nothing.

Jean Morane's brother is a showman.

He was the only family he had.

On Monday, he is in Bordeaux.

I can introduce you.

He took the photo.

It could be interesting.

Monday's fine.

I only saw

my brother once a year,

but it was the same seeing each other
daily or every ten years.

It worked with telepathy between us.

Now I can't hear a thing.

Check the straps

while I speak with the commissioner.

My brother

liked the kid.

He was taken off.

Poor Jean.

If I held the bastard child,

Are you going to catch him,
chief?

Well do everything we can.

It's not easy. Who? Why?

It could be anything, it could be

a settling of scores,

a junkie trying to score.

I don't know if you've been told,
Commissioner,

but Jean wasn't too fond of women.

He preferred men.

It's not my taste,
but it was his business.

Don't you think it's more
of a gay thing?

A gay thing?

It's not impossible.
We see so many things.

That's funny,

when we were younger,

I was always afraid someone
would confuse us.

I was ashamed of it.

And now,

I'm sorry.

He was a good man, Jean.

That's it, he's flying.

And here's the job.

What did I win?

You won this.

Dangerous.

-Is that all right?
-Yes.

-Gift
-For me?

Thank you.

Watch out, lovers.

Come on, folks,

we're here to have some fun.

O reserves his place
for the next round.

We'll do it again.

LE PARADIS

Hi, Dad.

You played well, great.

-Hi, Mom.
-Hi.

-Don't dawdle too long.
-Good evening, Mélodie.

Here.

I'd like to take a sabbatical.

There must be a lot we can do
in a year.

Oh, dear!

I'll read.

It's been a long time
since I read anything but thrillers.

That's normal.

I'll learn Latin

to be able to talk to your father.

I'm going to have to go out again.

Shit, no.

It's that Paradis business I told
you about,

I have to check something.

-At this hour?
-Yes.

It's a nightclub.

The Lenormands would like to have us
for dinner.

Any news?

Ladies and gentlemen,
allow me to introduce to you

all those charming little musicians
of nature, the birds.

Mr. le Pinson, always in a good mood.

Fabio, can I have a drink?
I'm dying of thirst.

Thank you.

There are fewer
and fewer people here.

We'll soon be
laying off the bartenders.

We always start with the musicians.

That's a mistake.

I'm sure customers come just for me.

Chief,
come to have a look around?

Everything here's legal.

Not everything that's legal
is allowed, young man.

Let's be careful.

Nice place you have here.

It's great.

-It must be difficult to heat.
-Tell me about it.

But it's good,

no neighbors,

no concierge.

I can
play wrong notes all night long.

It's a bit like the end of the world.

Meet Lolita.

Lolita,

Commissioner Verta himself.

Beaumarchais had a cat

named Beau Minon.

He had it engraved on his necklace:

"Mr. de Beaumarchais belongs to me."

That's exactly right,
but without the collar.

Can I get you anything?

You can try to tame it,

you never know.

How about a beer?

Are you hiding?

What's wrong?

You don't like cops?

Here we are.

It's not bad.

For a beginner, it's not bad.

The world's loveliest voice.

With or without foam?

Without.

Not afraid to leave your prints?

Too late.

Aren't you hot?

Have you noticed
how disturbing madness is

in our urban society?

In some rural communities,

the madman still plays
the social role he used to.

My grandmother often told me
about a shepherd

called the smoker.

He was perfectly integrated
into village life.

Yes, that's all over and done with.

It's like hunchbacks, there
are no more of them in the villages.

You have to get up early to find one.

So, not too old this morning?

I'm 1,000 years old.

Could you see me
in a place like that?

Yes, quite.

She's not bad, your wife.

Maybe I've missed out
on true happiness,

a home, a female, babies

and a lover once a week.

In short, a well-balanced life

and respectable.

You've got it all wrong, dude.

When I screw Nathalie,
there's nothing respectable about it.

It's great to have a kid.

-Would you like a drink?
-No, thanks.

I won't be staying.

I want to help you avoid
an adultery rap.

You're an idiot.

Nathalie isn't in Bordeaux today.

And...

I also have a taste for sacrilege.

Meet Mélodie.

-Did your father make that furniture?
-Yes.

He worked ten hours a day

and he still found ways to make toys
for us.

You're a beautiful dog.

-You hunt?
-I used to.

We used to hunt.

I'm not very tolerant.

Do you forgive me?

-Morning.
-Good morning, Commissioner.

-How are you, brother?
-How are you?

Yes.

We don't see you around much.
What are you up to?

Are you investigating
the demise of Neanderthal man?

I don't have time,
the cops have too much work to do

with all those homo sapiens
killing each other for 1.25 francs.

I'll be with you in a minute, just as
soon as I've finished with that lady.

Tell me,
how do you know she's a lady?

I know a gentleman from a lady.

Of course.

I can even tell you how old she died,

lifestyle and diet,

everything.

There's no privacy anymore.

-Are you all right?
-Yes.

What's up?

I'd like to ask you a small favor.

Remember, we have a brother.

Do you still have
your place up there?

Yes, why?

Could you lend it to me sometime?

My pad? If you like.

-Did you meet a meter maid?
-No, come on.

I don't abuse my powers.

All right.

I warn you, it's a real mess.

I'll have to clean it
one of these days.

Apart from that, how are you?

Yes, I'm fine.

You're cute with your net.

Rather plump.

You don't like plump ones?

Does your wife

know you prefer men?

I have no preference for men.

-Really?
-What do you think?

I believe

that I joined the police force

to meet some handsome thugs.

You look like a girl I knew

once.

Come on.

A girl

who looked a bit like a boy.

You seem
to have a very complicated life.

Yes.

No, it's not complicated.

If you were a girl, I'd like you just
as much. Understand?

We love each other.

Are you there?

Yes,
we needed a book for your father.

Something to check out.

I'm here
to pick up my badminton rackets.

Yes.

-Do you know where they are?
-They're here.

I also signed up for rugby.

I've got a sore throat,
Mom wouldn't let me out,

so don't say it.

Thank you.

-21.8 will give us 12.2.
-12.2 degrees.

OK. We can start the merlots.

See you soon.

Isn't that nice?

Here, we'll be better off on that.

A 1978 wine, you'll see.

-Here, that'll cheer you up.
-Thanks.

What can I do for you?

-Are you in trouble?
-Of course not.

It's not about me.

Really?

So I'm all ears, all taste buds.

Well,

I wanted to tell you...

your husband kept strange company.

Professional obligation.
What did he do?

Is it a professional obligation
to get laid?

Are you giving me information
or marriage counseling?

It's happening at my place,
you see, with my family.

It's more practical.

Michel asked Gérard
for the key to the storeroom

and that moron didn't refuse.

This is the kind of service
we can ask of each other as brothers.

No doubt.

Don't take this the wrong way,
Nathalie.

You know I love you very much,

you and Michel.

You always hated him.

No, that's not true.

I think to do his job...

Marianne, I don't know how you live,

I'm not interested,

but Michel and I are a modern couple.

It's not
the first time he's had an affair,

and it's no big deal.

Yes,

when his ten-year-old nephew
finds him in bed

in the company of a rugby player,

we have every right to worry,
don't we?

Modern as one may be.

Let's live dangerously.

Want some tea?

What are you proposing?

I can always get myself

summoned to the police station.

Too kind of you.

I'll send you some fiery reports.

Reason:

disturbed the order
of his representative.

Would you like to go clubbing?

I know some good ones.

Do you go often?

When I get off work, if I'm bored.

Here.

I want you.

What about you?

So do I.

-How's Ms. Villedieu?
-Chief.

-Good morning, Commissioner.
-Morning.

Please note.

She's my deputy's wife.

Here we are.

That's nice, give me a little tango.

Emmanuel, we're going home.

Ciao!

We'll play strip poker at home.

Let's go to his place and have fun.

Yes, strip poker!

Yes, everyone!

Let's do a strip.

My father taught me
to dance the tango.

Yes?

He fought in the Spanish Civil War.

Yes.

He was wounded six times.

Can you believe it?
Six times he's been wounded.

I understand, it's OK.

He ate rat in Saragossa.

-That's enough.
-Where are you going?

-I'm done, you're drunk.
-You don't like my father?

-I don't know your father.
-Stop, I'm talking about my father.

You stand there
when I tell you about my father.

I'm sick of hearing
about your father.

He's bald.

He depresses me, that Lenormand.

No sense of humor, narrow-minded.

Mrs. Lenormand
can't be laughing every day.

Don't be fooled by appearances.

He may be a very inventive
husband as regards intimacy.

Really?

It would amaze Lenormand to learn
you were cooing

in the arms of a rugby player.

You may like new scenery,
but the high jinks

with your boyfriend
in front of a child are a bit much.

You little prick.

Nothing happened in front of
that kid.

Nathalie,
we've lived together for 12 years.

I've never stopped you from doing
what you wanted.

We're free.

You know I've had little adventures.

It doesn't change anything
between us, deeply.

This time it's different.

Different, what?

Do you mean to do that?

Can't you understand
that I feel betrayed?

For 12 years, I've been your cover,

the sweet little couple.

You were taking me for a walk.

-I can be seen from a distance.
-Stop being so dramatic.

I can see
why you liked me when we first met,

with my big Santa beard.

You already liked beards.

I like both.

I've always loved both.

-You want me to prove it?
-Don't touch me.

Don't you touch me. You disgust me.

If you think it's so normal,
why didn't you tell me?

I was afraid of losing you.

Just listen,

now we're a little tired.

If you want, we can talk
about it tomorrow, calmly.

Certainly not.

Tonight
you're excused from marital duties.

You can find your gigolo.

Good evening, sir.

For a tow.

-What tow?
-You just called me.

Is that the 505 with the flat tires?

Follow me, she's here.

Good.

-Do what's necessary.
-OK.

I find this distressing.

If Michel were homosexual,

whether it's treatable or not,
I don't know,

and we'd say, "Poor boy!"

It's worse here because
he's always been perfectly normal.

Gérard,
you told us how you were used

to flirting with girls
when you were 15.

Is it his true nature reappearing?

I don't know, I'm just asking.

These are mostly the fantasies
of a jaded gentleman

looking for thrills

by not giving a damn
about anyone else.

I'm not an endocrinologist,

but Michel is clearly not

one
of those slightly androgynous beings

of which it can be said
that a lack of hormonal development

is the basis of...

No, it's quite the opposite with him.

I'm sure that sexually

he's always had great needs.

Victor Hugo also had great needs,

and to my knowledge...

A policeman should be spotless.

Where it belongs,

Michel is unreliable.

I remember
that in my resistance network,

we turned down a homosexual.

These are people who are
too easily taken advantage of.

We need to be more nuanced.

Michel is probably very unhappy.

Think of the risk
he's running professionally

with that connection.

In all likelihood,
he's irresistibly attracted

toward the transgression of a taboo
that he seeks to evacuate.

Careful. The kid.

I can't imagine
what would happen if Lenormand...

Happy birthday to you

-Hello, old Dad.
-Your old Dad.

Happy birthday to you

-No.
-Yes.

You didn't have to.

It takes occasions like that
for us to meet.

-How are you?
-Fine.

Wait,
you're not going to take it from me.

-Are you all right, brother?
-Yes.

-You're giving me this?
-He bought it with his own money.

Is it for pranks?

Can you believe it?

I can have fun with that.

Oh, dear!

I'm going to attack a bank.

You know how he makes ends meet,
Bernard?

By getting laid.

I like you.

He doesn't get put on by just anyone.

It's by a high-up person.

He does what he wants.

Well, anyway,

he could share it with his friends.

It would be nicer.

As for me, if I'm on the right track,

it might help my business.

Couldn't you leave him alone?

Unless you want him
to hand you a potato.

Never mind.

Here we are.

You're much more handsome that way.

I'm sure she was the one
who groped you.

It was all folded,
it must have been you moving it.

I don't want
you touching my little theater.

Do you know why women like you?

You're like a kid,

even without your hair.

-Please.
-Yes?

-Do you know who I am?
-No.

Yes, the wife
of my friend the chief.

I'd like to talk to you about him.
Do you have a moment?

Yes, but I'm already late.

I won't be long.

What's up?

Where are you going with my husband?

What are you hoping for?
That he'll marry you?

Yes, and that he'll give me
lots of children.

I've been 12 years with Michel,

I think I'm broad-minded enough
but it's not about me anymore.

-Really?
-What I feel is my own business.

If you have any affection for Michel,

realize that he's playing with fire
because of you.

Just listen,

I've never asked Michel for anything.
He's an adult, he does what he wants.

Two guys under a quilt,

it's not the kind of romance
the police are crazy about.

That's right.

They prefer the gentleman
with the lady underneath.

You're right not to care.
You've got nothing to lose.

Since you say so.

But I have a pretty good sense
of the ridiculous.

I always avoid confrontations
with my husband's mistresses

and I find myself in a vaudeville
with a fag. That's funny.

With two fags.

You're such an idiot.

There you are.

Hey!

We've been waiting
for you for two hours.

-Did you hit traffic?
-Don't be hard on him.

He must have given
the agent a blow job on the way.

It wasted his time.

He's a conscientious kid.

-What do you want?
-We want you,

my doe.

Aren't you going to offer us a beer?

Right, and I'll get
the guest room ready for you.

They broke everything and left.

Bastards!

I don't know why I'm telling
you that, it changes nothing.

I needed to tell you.

Calm.

-It's a nice surprise.
-Yes.

Are you staying for dinner?

No,
you're sweet, I was just stopping by.

You're wrong,
you don't know what you're missing.

Thomas and Michel love it.

I thought you looked a little tired
the other day.

I was worried.

It's nothing, just a little misery.

At the château we have a vat that
tastes of hard-boiled eggs.

It gave me nightmares for eight days.

Well,
not enough to write to the family.

You look just like your mother,

the same smooth, impenetrable face.

You always had to guess.

Half-sphinx, half-Mona Lisa.

Even though we don't talk much
I know you're there.

Yes?

-Who is it?
-Garcia.

-Hi.
-Hi.

I was just passing by.

I wanted to show you my new hairdo.

You eventually get used to it.

-Shall I make you some coffee?
-Yes.

Hey!

Your place is so nice.

I wouldn't have imagined you
in a place like this.

I like it.

You know why I like it?

Because it doesn't look gay.

It must be reassuring
to sleep with a cop.

I'd like to, but they don't like me.

I don't know why.

I'm not their type.

If you're here to talk shit,
get the hell out.

Don't answer in that tone.
I came to have a serious talk,

very seriously.

Go ahead, I'm listening.

I have a favor
to ask the commissioner.

There's a message for him.

Manuel Garcia would like
to be left in peace.

Otherwise,

we'll see about your idyllic life
in the city.

Go away.

I know some people
who'd be amazed.

Chief,

can you believe it? In high places.

Damn you!

I've been meaning to ask you,

before he does it with you,
does he put his gun down?

No.

I ask him to keep it,
like whores with their stockings.

It's more exciting, eh?

My friends really liked you
the other day,

a lot.

-Hello?
-Hello?

-Is this Mr. Verta's?
-Yes.

-Could I speak to him?
-Hold on.

Thank you.

-Yes?
-Michel, it's me.

I must see you right away.

Can it wait until tomorrow?

I told you never to call me here.

What's going on?

No, it's nothing.

I just wanted to see you.

That's very kind.

You tell me what you have to tell me.

I'm having friends for dinner.

Hello?

I'd never seen him without hair.

You think you know people.

Oh, dear! Don't talk much.

You should have put a plank.

Commissioner,
the victim's wife has just arrived.

The medical examiner.

Here we are.

No drowning, no marbling on the body.

On examination, however,
I found an occipital hematoma.

Thank you, Doctor.

That's a new one.

An occipital hematoma...

The autopsy was conclusive:
death preceded immersion.

Here's what we found on him.

-That's all I could find.
-Don't be an ass.

FOUR ROADS AUTOMOTIVE

Do you know
Four Roads Automotive?

No.

You know me, cars...

Did you tow a gray 505 recently?

Ring any bells?

Yes, the four flat tires,
in the middle of the night.

When was that?

About three weeks ago.

It was a Saturday,
which was bad timing.

Wait till I tell you.

Mirande, something like that.

It wasn't easy to find.
It was near Bacalan,

some kind of shed.

-Thanks a lot.
-You're welcome.

Do you recognize these objects?

The knife, yes, it was his knife.

The lighter wasn't his,
it was Bernard's,

the musician at the Paradis.

Do you know
when your husband last saw him?

No.

He saw a lot of people.

He wasn't really my husband,
he was my partner.

Was Bernard

on good terms with your partner?

They met at the Paradis.

They didn't like each other much,
but they didn't bite.

They've had a run-in recently,
everyone's seen them.

Yes, OK, but
that night we'd had a bit to drink.

It was getting late.

We had danced the tango.

Manuel got angry.

He didn't much like homos.

So what?

For some time now,

it seems Bernard was fooling
around with someone high up,

it gives you confidence.

Spare us the "it seems," miss,

otherwise,
we'll still be here in the morning.

I'll take care of it.

Have a seat.

Who told you about it?

Manuel.

He knew things about Bernard.

What kind of things?

It was Manuel who knew.

He never got me involved in anything.

He never involved anyone
in his business.

He involved you a little,
since you mention it.

It's nothing out of the ordinary.

Bernard's cute,
he's got himself a protector.

Or so it seems.

I heard?

Yes.

Be very careful what you say.

Do you think it has anything
to do with the murder?

If so, your statement is vital.

No,

it has nothing to do with anything.

That's not what I meant.

If it's irrelevant,

we'll leave that aside,

unless you want
to allege an affair of morals?

I don't want to allege anything.

People do what they want.

It won't bring him back.

Is there any proof?

Yes.

I couldn't keep him around longer.

Do you intend to protect him?

I can't leave him alone in that mess.

Very chivalrous.

Do you know what you're risking?

My poor girl, are you coming or what?

Things happened between Bernard
and me.

He'll be arrested and questioned.

They won't let him go just like that.

This case could rebound on me.

I think we'd better separate
for a while.

Split up?

You could

try to get the California business
back,

if they still need

a pretty wine expert
to sniff their wine.

Besides, Thomas would learn English.

-All that for a story...
-Stop it, you're talking garbage.

I don't want to drag you into this,

in the newspapers.

Think about it.

You decide.

We were so good together.

Why?

What's troubling

is that his car was fished out
of the water not far

from where your brother was killed.

I was on the merry-go-round,
turning customers around.

The testimonies put you personally
in the clear,

but...

You have friends.

No, I wanted to hit him

in the stomach.

He must have smelled the same
as my poor brother.

Look at this hand.

Exactly the same as Jean's,
the same lines.

When we were kids we used
to make ink prints

and try to tell the difference.

We could never do it.

Never.

I have no reason to keep you.

Don't leave the city.

I may need more information.

You're now without a murderer,
Chief.

Sorry I don't fit the bill.

How did you meet Bernard Mirande?

In Paris.
The kid had done something stupid,

easy money.

I took him with me
to work at the riding school.

In Bordeaux,
I introduced him to Jean.

In Paradis, they needed a musician.

See you soon, Commissioner.

Commissioner!

Can I help you?

Ricard.

Pour me one too.

I need it, believe me.

I have a musician
who has been missing two days.

The ventilation system is
out tonight.

What a pleasant surprise!

Are you on duty or doing the java?

Wait, don't move,
you've got a cowlick.

Never mind.

Don't make a scene here.

You'll compromise me.

I'm listening.

Got a light?

Have you lost your pretty lighter?

Yes.

I must have forgotten it.

Too bad it's in
Manuel Garcia's pocket.

What's on your mind?

Mother's Day is just six months away.

-Do you have an idea for a present?
-Have you finished playing?

I'll explain, damn it.

Any idea what you're risking?

We found your lighter
in Garcia's pocket.

You were seen fighting with him.

His buddies talked,
his girlfriend talked.

You were late to the Paradis
the night of the murder.

Defend yourself
if you didn't kill him.

I killed him.

I hit him.

He hit his head against
the edge of the shower.

It was at my place.

What a load of crap!

I had to defend myself.

It was him or me.

It's still murder.

I'm telling you, it was him or me.

Do you believe me?

Yes, I believe you.

Good.

There's too much against you.

We're completely stuck.

I'm going to have to...

I can't protect you.

That's the way it is.

Or I'll change jobs.

I'd like to point out
that I'm not alone.

Poor little chicken.

There's only one solution:
get the hell out,

that you disappear.

I'll help you cross the border.

Here.

It's money.

This way we're even.

What matters

is not to make waves.

What matters is not
to end up in my office tomorrow,

Do you get that?

Why not?

Are you scared?

You would lead the inquiry,

you'd come to know the truth,

the whole truth.

Exciting, isn't it?

What exactly are you doing?

Nothing.

I'm looking at you.

Two inspectors
will be at your house in the morning.

You decide.

-Gentlemen
-Are you Bernard Mirande?

Yes.

Please follow us.

Two minutes.

I'm all yours.

Are you disappointed, honey?

You were expecting a whole regiment

of soldiers, like for Bono's gang?

You see,

there are two of them.

Don't talk about your life.

Let your kitty take a nap.

Get dressed.

All right, you look great.
Hurry up.

Don't you want me
to butter you a sandwich?

Lolita.

That's fine.

I'm a star on the inside.

I have a Rolls Royce C,
a chauffeur.

Two ex-husbands

And a pension

In my fourth

Dimension

Hurry, the boss isn't going
to wait ten years for you.

The boss is here?

Don't be stupid!
