The first three months,
he didn't open his mouth.

Nobody has heard his voice.

There were monosyllabes: yes, no.

Thanks, hi.

But since 15 days,
we're having conversations!

So Doctor, is he cured?

Question is if he was really ill.

I mean, ill as normally understood.

But one day, he'll need to get out!

It's my son, I need him.

Sure, but he needs to decide.

You know, it's not easy for me,
alone and in charge of the business...

When he wants,
Martial can be very efficient.

He's good with numbers.

Numbers, yes.
For him, everything is signs, codes.

I thought for moment that the wedding
could extract him from himself.

But really fast, he lost interest.

Perhaps it was my fault.

I liked Lucie very much.

Other than business, I mean.

That also counts, doesn't it?

Talking about that, Doctor...

After a year, she had an affair.

And Martial encouraged it.

Yes.

It was a relief for him.

Paul?

Nice dress.

New to me.

But you've seen it.

I wonder if you'd better pick him up?

It's her who didn't want it.

I bought wine, a Chateau-Margot,

And a Leoville-Barton,
from the same year.

You know, you look great at last.

Yes.

You'll see, a lot has changed.

Lucie has plastic surgery for her nose.

Ah.

Is she happy about it?

She is.

And Paul?

Paul?

He's like me, he doesn't see the difference.

Were happy to see you, Sir.

Me too, Albert.

- Is it good?
- Excellent.

Just fine.

I ordered three boxes.

Good idea.

Dinner is early,
we have a board meeting at 2.

Martial, could you come?

Yes.

With pleasure.

But where is Felix?

He died...

How old was it?

12 years, 8 months.

For a cat, that's good.

It's times 5, right?

I'm sorry,
but 5 is for dogs, 3 for horses.

For cats, it's 7!

He was, let's say 13, times 7...

91.

91 years old!

Not bad indeed!

So Paul, how is it with Lucie?

- Good.
- What do you mean, good?

Good, very good, excellent?

Let's say, very good.
After you left, it was difficult.

And after?

After that, very good.

With ups and downs.

You know her character!

You don't get it,
I mean the physical side.

The coitus.

Please...

Come on.

From my side...

It's not about you,
it's about the 2 of you.

The intensity,
the frequency, the fullness.

Listen... yes, I think.

Yes? Because it's very important.

For Lucie and for you.

And for me too.

Ah. Mr Travail, good morning.

Hi.

In the sector clothes and novelties,
there is a slight drop.

Nothing to worry.

2.5% on appliances.

Food is stable, as always.

There's even
a slight increase, 0.5%.

Are you with us, Martial?

I don't want to bother you
with stats the days of your return.

Sure, food is stable.

For this financial year,
even with some expenses...

A margin of 2 billion,
so 1.6% of turnover.

We can thank Mr Bassompierre
for the clarity of his report.

But Georges,
I noticed a few cities where...

...our incomes are lower.
Clermont-Ferrant, Roane,

Grenobles,

Cambrest, Limoges,

these are cities
we haven't visited for a year.

You know Suzanne, we were overloaded.

I was negotiating with the Dutch group.

That took most of my time.

I can imagine.

But we must resume our inspections.

These contacts with our
provincial managers are very important.

Martial, I thought...

...that you could perhaps...

take care of it?

Absolutely.

It would be relief for us.

You could start with Limoges.

Why not.

When will you leave?

Whenever you want.

Right now.
Next train if Paul brings me there.

Of course.

Perfect.

5 cities, 5 days.

Come back Saturday?

In the hygiene department,
Pampers for your little ones.

Dry with Pampers.

Super P, the store
which takes care of its clients.

Hi Mr Pasquier.

Fonfrin!

Do you recognize me?

I know, it's been a while.

They told me
you'd come, but not so soon!

Please forgive me, but I was
at an exhibition opening day and...

You know how it is.

It's our great rebates day!

I saw.

Last year, we reorganized
with what I call, a thematic way.

This way, our clients have better access.

Let's say, a better store!

But I think your time is limited,
do you want to see the books?

Yes.

Miss Marie.

The books for mister Pasquier.

It's like the old days,
when your father did the inspection.

I knew him well, you know.

Between us,
a bad temper but a great man.

Het taught me everything.

To him, I was
a trustworthy companion. And even...

never mind modesty, a friend.

I still hear him,
“Raoul, you're a fighter”. Yes I fought.

And he is dead,

so I stayed here in Limoges.

And I like it indeed.

Mr Fonfrin?

Over here.

Here, it's quiet.

We won't disturb you.

There's a minibar...

No, thank you.

If you have questions, just ask.

Don't hesitate.

OK, I'll leave you alone.

Don't forget, just ask!

Irene, it's me.

He's in the books.

Yes, already.

No, he seems...
listen, he was not in an asylum.

Yes?

Everything's fine?

Yes.

To be honest,
the opposite would surprise me.

But, here, there are 2 numbers that...

Here and there.

Here? and there?

Yes, indeed...

Ah, maybe here...

it doesn't account for...

Could you bring the inventory book?

You don't have it?

Miss Marie, the inventory,
you didn't give it to him?

But you said...

Absolutely not. Go fetch it!

My wife and I
would like to have you for supper.

Everybody say her cooking is excellent.

We'll have some friends,
the cabinet chief of police...

Sorry, I have a plane at 9 o'clock.

I understand. Others cities to visit.

Too bad, my wife will be sad.

Tell her I'm sorry.

Mr Fonfrin.

I don't know if it's up to date,
I didn't have time...

Very good, thank you.

Ill leave you.

And again, just ask.

I don't know if it's on purpose
or if he's really unstable,

but for now, he's a pain in the arse.

Luckily,
this little prick booked a flight,

so he won't come for supper.

Good.

So, what about the Maillottes?
Keep them...

I'm sorry, i'd love to bring you
to the airport, but my wife got the car.

I hope you're satisfied.

Absolutely.

If you have questions...

I won't hesitate.
If you have questions...

I won't hesitate.

Have a good trip.
My wife will be sad, really..

I don't doubt it.

Say hello to Mrs your mother!

Were stuck...

...because of the exhibition opening.

But don't worry

...you're gonna catch it.

In 10 minutes, we're there.

Mister. Could we turn back please,

Turn back?

OK.

Is this Mrs Fonfrin's house?

Yes.

Mr Pasquier? But...

You haven't...

My taxi was stuck in traffic.

And you missed your plane.

So I took the liberty to...

Of course, please come in. Irene!

Mr Pasquier got stuck in traffic.

Oh... But lucky us!

I'm very pleased to have you for supper.

Supper? I don't know if I can...

Yes you can, you must!

Francine! Add a plate!

We we're about to eat...

This is Mrs Maillotte.

Mr Maillotte,
chief of cabinet of the police.

Mr Pasquier.

Nice to meet you!

Our friend Fonfrin was just saying how...

diligently you were
inspecting your province's stores.

Congratulations.

And my sister Regine,

I think you know each other.

It's been a while...

Yes.

...times change, don't they?

You don't listen... Paris always Paris...

Do you mean...

I mean, province stay province!

It's the opposite!

We're living a decentralization.

These are words. In fact,

things are slowly changing.

Take me, I love opera.

We can watch it on the tv.

Opera is a living thing!

We don't have to be purist about it,
I know today, it's a ‘must'.

Not for me Raoul, you know it.

I love great voices!

Like Jeanne d'Arc...

Here, there is not enough culture.

I hated the last administration,

but for theatre and culture,
it wasn't so bad!

But we can't give money to people
who think you're a fascist for eternity!

To me,
left or right are outdated notions.

I know it makes you smile Regine,
little activist of the family.

But I'm a socialist,
and I approve of economic liberalism.

There are
sensibilities and waves of opinion...

But today, it's the end of ideologies
and systems, and it's important!

Yes, it's true that...

But are we adult enough politically?
We should reach a national consensus.

Don't split France in half.

I'm sorry, but without consensus,
no Hexagone and no Europe. It's clear!

Pardon me Mrs Maillotte,
you were saying?

Yes...

I don't remember.

She has difficulties
with abstract discussions.

She's not the only one.

But, you haven't eaten,

don't you like the dessert?

No.

Would you like some fruit?

No, thank you.

I'm afraid
our provincial discussions bother you.

You mean he's bored to death!

No, not at all.

This string of old
commonplaces was very interesting.

It's an art!

To tell banalities,

quick replicas, intonations...

Its' a kind of music, reassuring.

It's like a trip
when you don't understand the language.

We look the faces...

That's perfectly true!

Do you remember
our trip to the Czech Republic?

This dinner, so boring,
when we couldn't understand a word?

That night in our room,
we remade the scene...

with the details of every nose,
ear, grain of the skin, eye...

So revealing...

How did you meet, the 2 of you?

That's long ago...

In Paris, in law school.

A reactionary bastion,
where your sister played Passionflower.

Under her care, even right wing students,

ended up redacting pamphlets
about permanent revolution.

Yes, we were talking about it.

You had your way with words.

No, it was much easier,

I slept with them.

Yes, with them, but not with me.

It was different with you.

Our impression
was that you weren't really taking part,

that nothing really interested you.

Let's go to the living room!

It's past eleven!

I'm sorry.

We need to go honey.

Me too I need to go.

You need a hotel, right?

With the exhibition,
I'm afraid that everything's booked.

I'm afraid so.

But maybe...

You could sleep here.

There is the blue room.

But of course, I didn't think of it.

Please forgive me.

Francine?

- I'm sorry.
- You're kidding, my home is your home.

He's digging in! Francine!

Prepare the bed of the blue room.

You said 10 o'clock, it's already...

I know, but you'll stay a little longer!

And get two towels!

Thanks a lot.

Good night.

Your plane leaves?

11 O'clock.

I can't come, I have a meeting.

But our usual taxi will bring you.

Do you want another toast, it's easy...

I have to leave.

I'm always at the store before the staff.

It's a principle I always respect.

I'll come with you.

I would like to take a copy of
the cashier's book, if possible.

A copy, of course.

I'll join you.

Bassompierre told me
he's a cowboy, but now, he's vicious.

You have nothing to worry.

Innocent things...

OK.

Cashier's books since?

6 last months.

Mrs Fonfrin, thanks for your hospitality.

The pleasure was mine.

There.

I realize certain things are unclear.
I was thinking about working
on it this Sunday.

I don't really trust my store manager.

No?

Yes, one day, I'll have to fire him.

So if you have questions, just ask.

Goodbye dear friend.

Do you like Limoges?

The center is still nice.

Yes.

Hello?

Yes. It's me.

Sorry?

Yes.

Hi. Where do you call from?

You didn't leave? What happened?

Nothing. I'm in town and I rent a flat.

I would like to give a dinner tonight.

Yes. A dinner.

I'll have some friends and I need you.

I would like to hire
the young girl who work at your place.

What's her name?

Francine, yes.

Yes but it's not possible,
I don't recommend her.

First. She don't really know her job.

She's an amateur.

And it's a girl who...

She seemed very nice.

From your point of view maybe.
But me, I have to watch her constantly...

Sorry. Anyway,
me and my husband are busy tonight.

Oh, OK.

Yes, I understand.

She'll say no, I know her.

She is very stubborn.

I will pay her very well.

Listen. It's what I want.

Do what's necessary.

I'm counting on you.

Ok. Where does she need to go?

What time?

It's a pleasure.

Who was it? Who do you think!

It was him. He didn't leave at all.

He rents a flat.
You know, the huge one in town.

He's giving a dinner
and we're not even invited!

I'm wondering if...

Good evening.

Please come in.

Thanks for coming.

I hope it didn't disturb you.

No, no. Where is the kitchen?

Yes, over here.

There you go.

I know, it's almost empty
but the place is unoccupied for a year.

And what should I do exactly?

Don't worry. I already ordered.

And where is it taking place?

Over here.

Only two?

Yes.

And when will your guest be here?

He's here...

Is he hiding?

No.

It's you.

Me?

Yes.

Do want to have dinner with me?

Do you like champagne?

What is this, what do you want?

What do you think I am?

You think you can ring me for sex?

There must be an agency in town,
specialized in these things.

You don't understand.

Oh yes. You didn't find anyone,
so here's the maid!

I have nothing against those poor girls,

but I'm not one of them.

I know.
I only want to have dinner with you.

You. And me, I don't count?

You didn't ask my opinion.

You're right.

But I haven't found
a better way to meet you.

To know you.

Just have one drink.
After you can leave if you want.

Please sit down.

OK, 5 minutes.

Don't you like it?

Yes, it's very good.

It's brut.

And you, you don't drink?

Yes.

Does she know, the Fonfrin woman?

What?

That I was the guest.

No, of course not.

You know how they call you the Fonfrin?

Family's idiot?

No. The crazy one.

They're not the only one.

I'll go now.

Already?

You just arrived.

You're not not in a hurry?

No, but...

Listen...

You're the first person
I want to talk to since many years...

Everything was rented for this?

Yes.

You don't have to eat.

Who's the cook?

Jocelyn.

Ok. I'm here anyway.

I won't let you eat all that alone!

And I'm hungry.

I'm sorry, decoration is basic,
but I didn't have time to...

How long are you at the Fonfrins?

Four months.

One day, I was broke.

I was in your store,
and I stole 2 silks panties.

Silk or cotton, if they catch you
it's the same price, so...

So why bother.

So I've been caught,

and got to the office of Fonfrin.

What did he say?

It's bad, you shouldn't...

...and that if everyone acts the same...

And he said, OK, he forgave me.

And that he could give me a job.

He made me an offer.

At his home, as a maid.

Did he tried to abuse you?

No.

A little bit...

But she was very suspicious.

So him, the poor man, didn't insist.

On the one hand, it was OK for me.

But after that, she was after me.

She put money everywhere to catch me!

Classical.

How much you're making?

And you?

Honestly, I don't know.

You mean, you earn so much
that you don't know how much.

That's it.

To be honest, I don't really earn it.

Do you want to do me a favor?

Which one?

Could you untie your hair...

But who is there?
He doesn't know anybody here!

I don't know,
maybe he's got friends in the region?

Ask your sister.

The Maillottes aren't there for sure.

You know what's funny...?

Almost.

OK now?

I't's OK.

I was saying?

You were saying,
what is funny after all...

I don't know...

I thought that
it was meant to be a boring night.

Turns out not bad at all.

Are you keeping on your jacket?

Out of principle?

When you don't know each other,
it's not easy at first.

But you got charm.

You married?

A little.

A little, what do you mean?

It was a business wedding at first,

and it ended in...

In white cheese?

But with women you're...?

I'm OK on that side, don't worry.

I don't... and I don't care.

Oh la la.. I need to go.

I'm drunk...

I would like to call you a cab,
but I don't know the number.

I can bring you home at foot...

I prefer sleeping here,
but I'm afraid that...

That I rape you?

No, but...

Is someone waiting for you?

Yes. No. It's not that...

Lights went out
and nobody's going out, strange.

Yes.

Maybe his guests are already gone.

It's probably that...

With him, it must have been so boring.

You're right.

You didn't sleep?

Come,

sleep with me.

Good morning.

What are you doing?

I'm going to work.

I work at nine, I'm already late...

No.

No what?

You won't go back there.

You're kidding or what?

Who's gonna feed me?

Listen...

I'll stay longer that I planned.

Anyway,
this flat is rented for 3 months.

It's the minimum at the agency.

If you want, stay here, your home.

And the Fonfrin?

It's nothing, they are at my service.

And you, why do you care?

Nothing, but...

You'll have anything you need.

Money at least, to arrange the flat.

So you want to buy me.

No.

So what, is this a game?

If you want to call it that.

It's good for me but for you too.

We're gonna have some fun,
what do you have to lose?

You'll be free.
I've no intention to keep you prisoner.

I should go there to tell her.

Don't worry, lets fire her on the phone!

She's gonna be furious, that cow.

Hello, it's me.

Me, Francine.

No, I won't come.

No, I'm not sick.

I'm leaving you, I won't be back.

That's my business.

You have your reasons,
I have mine.

Keep the benefits.

I told my husband you were a little bitch!

That's it, bye!

Excellent!

You heard what she said!

It's business.

Let's have some coffee.

That felt good, but it made me hungry!

It's nice here. I'm telling you,
I won't dress like the Fonfrin woman!

I hope so.

You're doing well.

It's been almost a year I didn't drive.

What car?

A crappy R5.

Light was red...

I saw.

We were at the sea,
but the car broke while we came back.

The gearbox broke.

Was it your friend's car?

Which friend?

You must have a friend.

A boyfriend?

Yes.

But he doesn't have a car anymore.

What does he do?

Welfare.

Is he important for you?

When I had nothing,
I was lucky to have him.

What's his name?

Fernand.

I would like to meet him.

You kidding?

No. why? I would like to know him.

We could have him for dinner.

You're weird.

Where does this go?

And this one?

Here for the moment.

What?

Who's calling?

Oh sorry. Please hold on.

Martial, it's your mother.

Hello. How are you?

Me, very well.

A friend, yes.

What?

Why do you ask if you know it?

It's big.

I haven't measured it yet,
but it's gonna be hard to furnish it.

I don't know, going to be a while.

Very well, I told you.

You can
reassure the diabolic doctor Appert!

No. And to be honest,
it's your sanity that worries me.

Wait a second.

Could you help this man.

Over there.

Know what? I told you everything.

Just hire a private detective.

But in fact, it isn't worth it,
you already have the Fonfrin.

What about the other cities?

The others will have to wait.

You told us
that you were doing the inspections.

I'm counting on you, you can't do that!

I have to go, the parasol is there.

Call you back.

A parasol...

What can we do?

I'm worrying more about how much
he's spending with his credit card...

Don't forget Suzanne,
that he got the signature.

But I can't go fetch him.

I wouldn't recommend it!

There must be another way.

Hi Mrs, Mr Pasquier

Eat the pincers, they're the best.

Eat with your fingers.

And Fernand, you're sure he'll come?

He had stuff to do.

He'll be here for dessert.

No, once I had
a good thing in a tea salon.

An old dyke owned the place.

It was nice.

On the wall she had a lot of, a painter.

a great painter.

Ancient?

Contemporary?

Give me some names?

- Van Gogh?
- No, not that one.

I like him though.

The one who draw blues birds.

Matisse?

Yes that's it, I liked it.

She got broke sold the place.

And then, I worked
in a theatre near Gare de l'Est.

The movies were like... take me deep!

A bit monotonous, you see.

The embalming
of salmon with a nest of zuchinis.

Embalming... like in a cemetery!

Were you going out?

Luckily!

When you're not too ugly,
you can always find gangs to have fun.

But when you're out of a job and
depressed, you don't like to dance!

So I came back here.

I know the place,
I'm born here, my family is here.

From the table there.

It's the sister in law, Regine...

At the left.

What does she say? Give it to me.

"You have all my sympathies. "

What does that mean?

She should mind
her own business, this slut.

You don't seem to like her.

She's worse than her sister.
At least at the Fonfrin, she fits in.

This one plays the leftie.

Like she's ‘with the people',
always sorry to be served at table.

She's at a loss.

You know what's funny?

No?

She's dating a cop!

No!

Yes, he's
the chief commissioner, I know him.

He was after
my sister's wife for a car thing.

Martial. Fernand. Fernand. Martial.

I'm very happy to...
please sit down. Thanks.

Did you had dinner? Yes...

Tell it if you hadn't eat!

Order something... please.

I don't know... a sauerkraut.

We don't have...

But we could suggest
a marinated slaw minced with coriander.

It's the same thing.

- I'll have it.
- OK sir.

- Don't you want a beer?
- No, I'm OK.

- At what time is the movie?
- 10:15.

- And the movie is...
- The ninja strikes back!

Ah... karate.

He already saw it 5 times.

Yes, but it's been 2 years.

- Have you seen it?
- Not this one.

Do you like karate movies?

I love it!

Not the the time
on the stairs but at the bottom.

When the other attack him with a wamashi.

A wamashi? You sure?
It's not a punch with the hand?

He's a black belt! No, No, he's right.

You know karate? Did you practice?

Little bit.

Yeah,
because after wamashi, there's a shuto.

I don't get it, show me.

Move.

Wamashi is like that.

And shuto is like this.

Now I'll stop or I'll kill you.

Do it for real.

No, thank you.

Why not, you did practice.

I'm not a punching ball.

Too bad!

You coming?

Where we going? At the terminus.

You were scared, right?

It's my round, come here!

Hey, it's my sister!

- So Martial, my sister Georgette, and?
- Max.

What are you drinking?

I don't know... same thing.

How many in your family? Seven.

Five girls and two boys.

And you, only child I presume.

Excuse me, you're travelling?
What are you doing?

Business trip.

For whom?

The Pasquier supermarket, that's him.

OK.

What is it?

Dunno.

It's natural silk?

So Mr... Martial.

Business is good? Are you happy?

Business is good.

Great, because these days,
it's going up, going down.

What it is this thing?

A hat. Do you like it?

It's for you.

We're not sisters,

we are friends!

He kept me for so long...

The guy is so drunk...

Did you recover the stock?

Which one?

It's important! Don't worry.

What' he saying?

Please stop.

Max please!

Tell her to shut up.

That's what I'm doing!

It's not easy at this point.

- She's drunk.
- I see!

Will you stop drinking!

Excuse her Mr Martial.

Mr Martial...

Hey Rocky!

Hello.

Did you buy the Manzano garage?

I'm not crazy, just shares.

He knows his stuff.

Excuse me but I'm... bedazzled.

I'm losing it.

Stop.

And her dress!

If I can give my opinion...

If we need it, we'll ask!

She's terrible.
You see how she talks to me?

Excuse me gents, you're lucky...

Stop... he's drunk!

Leave, you bothering them!

Rocky, he's wise.

Yes, he seems so.

What he's doing?

He's not from here.

Was he a stallholder?

No, he was selling stuff, stereos.

He took shares everywhere.

He's trafficking!

If you don't mind,
I have to get back with Fernand tonight.

Of course.

You don't care.

No...

Yes, the same, it's on me.

I have an idea, let's invite the Fronfrin.

For the housewarming.

With others people, let's enlarge.

You can invite who you want.

OK. Perfect.

What's so funny?

Let's go.

Good night Fernand, it was a pleasure.

So who are we inviting?

The Maillottes?

Your sister and Max.

And the sister in law,
with her police boyfriend.

There's a thing which surprises me.

Normally,
when a guy is just looking at her,

anyone,
I'll hit him. But with you I dunno...

I'm not jealous.

I'll take it as a compliment.

They will be here in 20 minutes.

You know how difficult this is?

I know, but how to escape it?

I won't endure that...

But...

Yes?

There was not a dinner?

A dinner?

But... what day is it?

Wednesday.

I'm sorry! I forgot!

Ok... another time then!

No, no, please come in.

There must be an Arab market still open.

I'm stupid, I forgot, there's
tuna and beer and kitchen. Come in!

Come on, don't be fussy.

Come in.

Honey!

You know who's here?

It's a little joke!

Very funny.

I'm happy to have you here!

It was important for us.

It's a pleasure.

You redecorated all of this,

and really, really...

It's original. Really, really...

It's original.

You like it? Really?

Francine did it all!

You can congratulate her.

It's very interesting...

Its summer-like!

It's wonderful to bring... sun to these
old houses who crumbled under traditions.

Honey, you take care of the punch?

Give me that... I really like your dress.

We were talking about it. We were saying,
“She has taste, but a little sad".

“She should take risks" and you did, bravo!

Thanks. You know,
this dress is at least 5 years old!

Taste that.

Its strong, what is it?

My recipe, tequila, gin, pepper, cuirassot.

And most important, potato alcohol.

They say
that it can provoke hallucinations.

No, I don't know if...

Please, you must.

It tastes like...

Please meet my oldest friend,
Roger Delafreniére.

Mr and Mrs Fronfrin of the supermarket.

Your face is familiar, we
probably met before with common friends.

Where do you live?

Excuse Roger, he had an accident.

While hunting, he fell. He was hurt
by his horse and half eaten by his dogs.

Please honey, stop with this story.

No please continue.

One of the dogs was ferocious
and sliced his jugular vein.

It's horrible, stop...

He lost his voice.

His scarf hiding a terrible scar.

I'm sincerely sorry.

Hi.

Raoul, Irene, Max, Georgette.

Georgette is my sister, you know her.

Yes, indeed.

Oh, its Fernand!

What are you doing?

I'm Roger Delafreniére,
I have a castle, I'm hunting.

I knew it, its him.

Of course, its Fernand.

Good joke! But I wasn't convinced, I
never heard about any hunting accident.

Around here, I know houses and castles.

Careful, one minute in the mouth
and a lifelong in the ankles.

I'll go.

What our ‘lord' is doing these days?

It's tough for everyone...

And with Francine, it's still working?

Very well, thanks.

Everyone lives his life as he likes.

We're not the first I see!

Our friends, the Mayottes.

So funny, they're ridiculous.

You told me it was a costume party!

It's true, but honey,
did you forget to call them?

Excuse me, I forgot.

We considered afterwards that
these costume parties were outdated.

It's true that these
cheap costumes are a bit ridiculous.

Well, we're happy to entertain you.

But
you need to know when you go too far!

Could we have our coats please?

Be a player Mayotte, you have humor!

Look our host, he's giving the example!

Come on, after this long walk
in Sherwood forest, you need a drink!

Drink that!

You should try!

Let's dance!

Fernand, pump up the volume!

They said, second floor, must be there.

Right, yes.

Kiss me...

Mr Commissioner, madam, please come in.

Hello Commissioner!

Good evening!
We weren't expecting you anymore.

We met before, no?

Yeah, foolish things.

The past is the past!

There we go Commissioner!

Very nice, but
I need to make an important call first.

Sure, over here.

You know who he's calling?

His wife.

Yes, it's gonna be a problem.

No, we invent a crime every night!

Wow, you're flexible!

We're changing!

Hey, mother Fonfrin is having fun!

She also says fuck you mother Fonfrin!

It's not because your maid
invited you that you can be vulgar!

Raoul, tell her to shut her mouth
and get sodomized by her chicken!

She's a bit drunk...

A bit?

Mood is getting hot.

Yes, it's a relief.

We're changing!

We have a concensus!

Tell me Mr Fonfrin,
you have 12 cashiers machine, right?

Yes.

Because while checking your documents,
I noticed one is missing.

Yes, possible, I have
an employee who took a few days off.

You also talked about
one of your managers you didn't trust.

- Yes.
- Why?

It's a man who... drinks.

So?

I had to fire him this morning.

No yesterday.
Now, it's important to replace him.

It take a while, tests, CV...

Don't worry, I got your man!

Fernand!

Mr Fronfrin has a problem,
he lost one of his employees,

he'd be happy
if you'd accept this job of...

store manager.

If you trust me,
I'm sure I'll be able to...

Certainly.

This man is reliable!

I don't doubt it.

And I'll start?

Tomorrow morning, 8 O'clock.

Yes, I'll need to explain a few details.

It's her, she broke my necklace!

I didn't break anything!

I'm not stupid, I'm not a slut!

Don't touch me, bastard!

Crook!

She's losing it!

She lost it.
Sometimes, the human machine...

She was falling,
so the necklace... I tried to help her.

Of course honey.

We're gonna find her pearls.

Georgette,
you were perfect, go on dancing.

All that for false pearls...

No Regine, I'm sorry, these pearls
are real, the necklace
is your grandmother's.

Come on.

Martial, can I call you Martial?
Can you hear a confession?

Why not.

The holes
that you find there... are mine.

Yes. I took a little loan,
but I was planning on reimbursing it.

Another one!

What a mess.

And it's been
20 years that I'm married to this crook.

I loved him.

I quit everything for him,
I had a talent for painting.

You're still young.

Without the kids, I would have left him.

But they're grown up your kids,
they don't live with you anymore.

You're right.

But it's too late.

Honey,
we have 58 pearls, how much do you have?

22.

So, 80, all there!

I'll need to tell your sister I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Very good. Bravo commissioner.

Perhaps it was wax from a candle,

that's the best hypothesis.

Impossible, her head would've needed
to be at the same height at the candle.

Here he comes!

She's OK. A bit shocked.

Her hair?

They had to shave her, all of it.

But the scalp is all right!

They don't know
how fast it will grow, but,

now we only need patience.

She'll need a wig, with asbestos under!

It's raining!

Children, it's gonna be a shower!

Let's go, we're getting soaking wet.

Let's go, I get up a 6 o'clock tomorrow.

OK, let's move. Let's go!

Thanks for the party, it was great!

Good morning!

Did you sleep well?

Yes, and you?

Not long enough.

Empty bottles go there.

You know, I could have
call someone to help.

No its easy, I prefer to do it.

He's burned up too!

Was I nice yesterday?

Sure.

Fernand was perfect.

Yeah, he surprised me.

He should be working now.

Under high authority from Fronfrin.

It's nice for Fernandm, right?

Yes, you were great.

The flat is nice how you decorated it.

But for living here...

If you'd ask me, I'd show you les Loges.

Small houses with gardens.

But for you,
maybe here's better. I have to go.

Where?

Can't always have fun.
One day, you'll leave, what about me?

Get your coffee.

I need work.
With Fonfrin it's over, that's fine!

Now [I'll find something else.

The car keys.

You don't take it?

You know,
looking for work in a Mercedes!

‘till this evening!

How did it go, are you happy?

Yes, I was sure.
Tell me, did you see Francine?

She was supposed
to see her parents. I was asking if...

No, don't worry.

OK. I'll call you tomorrow.

Martial? Its Regine.

I recognized your voice.

It was glorious yesterday.

Francine was superb.

I'm impatient to know what's next.

What's next?

You and Francine.

Excuse me,
but it's none of your business.

You'll find me indiscreet, but...
I am disturbing. Are you alone?

The opposite would surprise me!

Why?

I just met Francine in a bistro,
she wasn't alone and...

Where?

Paris road. The Etoile bleue.

When I saw her,
I told myself maybe that...

You're not sleeping?

No.

Looking for work
is even harder that working.

And, did you find some?

Yeah, maybe.
Nobody's is running after me.

One doesn't care,
the other is not there.

You don't know
how it is, wait... wait...

Until now.

Yeah, at the end, I was a tad depressed.

So?

So nothing.

Why do you lie to me?

Why not tell me that you stayed
in a bar for 3 hours on Paris road?

I saw you.

I know. I saw you too.

I met Regine, and told her to call you.

Why?

Just like that, to see how you'd react.

I was thinking, will he come in or not?
And you stayed outside.

I know you weren't afraid.

So is that true? Why?

I didn't want to.

Because I was with Rocky,
I though I was free.

Let's say I was jealous.

Jealous?

You're not jealous,

...it's not our style.

I work hard to make you jealous
and you just don't care.

It's hot.

I'm drunk.

Your fault. I wasn't drinking before.

Were you a monster with your wife?

Maybe.

Yes.

With you, its worse than being alone.

What about Fernand, who loves you.

He loves me.

I thought about what you told me
this morning. I went to Les Loges.

What?

When?

Is it bad?

Where is she?

I'll take the first plane.

"Francine... "

"For serious reasons
I need to get back to Paris. "

"Maybe it's better for me and for you".

“You can keep the flat as long as you want”.

"If you need anything,
call me at the number on the envelope. *

"Thank you for these few days with me. "

How is she?

Better. She's waiting for you.

My dear...

Hi mother.

Thanks for coming, so quickly.

Don't be foolish.

I told them
not to call you like that, at night.

I had quite a fright, you know.

I wanted to turn off the tv
and suddenly... a pain in the arm.

You know, it climbed,
it radiated to the shoulder.

How are you now?

Better.

They gave a lot of meds...

Don't worry.

It's nothing.

I was tired for a while.

The business is worrying me... and you.

I don't reproach you anything but...

I thought I never see you again.

Don't talk too much.

I'm here, I'll take care of everything.

I clear out some things, don't worry.

Clear out things? What do you mean?

Later.

Have a rest.

Are you drinking coffee?

Yes.

Are you sure that's wise?

It's deca.

Is he here?

Five minutes ago.

How was he?

Normal.

Normal...

Did you think he was crazy?

I mean, how is he taking it?

He looked worried.

Ah, you're here doctor.

Hi Martial.

I didn't know
you were also a cardiologist!

Let's say that because of you,
I'm close to your mother.

How was she?

I'm wondering...
Please, I need to call the office.

I'm sure your return will help her.

Certainly.

Hello, Mr Travail please.

It's a very good recovery.

Maybe it was just an alarm...

Sometimes, alarms are...

I'm here, that's what matters.

Hello. Mr Travail?

It's me, I'm back.

Very well, thank you.

Mr Travail, I'll need
the management statistics for this year.

Yes, on all our franchises.

And for Limoges,
complete state of the cashiers.

I know. I know.

Is Mr Bassonpierre there?

Good. No you don't need to inform him.

Time to be there.

See you soon, Mr Travail.

Right, where is Lucie?

In the bathroom.

It'll only be a moment.

You know Lucie, I thought a lot.

About us.

Yes?

I can't always go backward.

Perpetuate old habits
of tenderness, empty after a while.

A least insufficient for a woman, right?

A silent couple is a dead couple.

So I made a decision.

We're getting a divorce.

Could you repeat?

We are divorcing.

It's better for you, for me, for Paul.

Is this a joke?

I've never been so serious.

Why so fast?

It's a big decision.

- We need...
- to consult a lawyer of course.

On the financial side,
you won't regret a thing.

You're even gonna congratulate yourself.

Very good. If that's what you want.

OK, I need to go to the office.

Did you talked to your mother?

You know, in her condition...

Yes, poor her.

Not only are you acting like a bastard,
but you're also an idiot!

She's not ill, she feels like the Pont-Neuf.

Her and this crook have invented
this farce to make you return.

I'm just learning that,
glad you're here.

- Morning Martial!
- Good morning.

Sadly, I leave as you arrive,
I'm off to Amsterdam in 2 hours.

I learned that.

These negotiations
with the Dutch group are important.

I'm sure of that.

With Fronfrin, did it go well?

Very well.

You had fun, you did well.

- See you soon.
- Have a good trip.

I noticed
a few holes in the Limoges books.

I would like to see for the year...
yes, check that Mr Travail.

A hole in sequential numbers in April.

And look here, another.

I need the same documents
for all others cities.

With daily reports?

Yes.

One moment.

Mr Bassonpierre

Hello Georges.

Yes, thank you.

How's it going there?

Here?

You don't know last news?

He's divorcing!

Lucie left with Paul.

Him?

For 3 days, night and day,
he's with Travail checking the books.

I don't know.

So Mr Travail, of all our franchises,
there are 5 with anomalies.

And the total is...

1 million dollars.

So, with the confidences of Mr Fronfrin
in Limoges, the total number...

There is 700,000 missing.

That's a lot...

You're honest, Mr Travail.

But Mr Bassonpierre hired you.

Informing is never funny...

You must be tired,
your wife must be angry.

I think we deserve to sleep.

It's been a while...

Did you sleep well?

9 hours.

And you, what about your heart?

Please stop.
If you think that it was funny...

You left me no choice.

Each his own weapons.

Any call for me?

No, none.

Where can I find Paul?

Prince-de-Galles hotel.

But you can't avoid Lucie there.

What's
your relationship with Bassonpierre?

He's a friend.

He used to be your lover.

Georges was patient, delicate...

A woman can't always say no.

At my age...

I fear that your relationship
will suffer on the future.

Why, please?

He's a crook,
who robbed you, only this year,

of around 700,000 dollars.

It's an abuse of confidence and hijacking
of social goods, Mr Bassonpierre.

So you understand you have to go
and we prepare this resignation letter.

And this one
where you selling all your shares.

You only need to sign it.

I can't deny,

but don't forget
everything I contributed to this firm.

That's why
we are proposing this formula,

which spares you
a lawsuit and 5 years in jail.

I would like to know...

which fly bit you.

In Mr Bassonpierre, we're losing
a friend but also a great manager.

But his decision is irrevocable
and we need to replace him.

I think that Paul would be a good choice.

With the help of Mr Travail.

I need to go, our new
partners from Holland are in Paris.

We meet in half an hour.

It will be my last contribution.

I will leave the firm and
you will redistribut my shares.

But I will keep
complete control of Limoge's franchise.

Paul and Mr Travail
can answer all your questions.

Mr Martial!

Don't worry, go on.

Hi Mr Pasquier.

I wasn't expecting you.

I thought that
my fate depended on one phone call.

You know,
there's nothing to say in my defense.

Rotten branches need to be cut.

Now, I have to pay the bill.

You have power over little people,
like a puppeteer. It's your favorite sport no?

But I've had enough.
Don't count on me to beg.

I have nothing to lose.

Do what you want.

Mr Fronfrin, I don't care about this
cashier story. Let's forget it, it's past.

I'm happy we met,

and I thank you.

Wait, I beg your pardon?

I don't...

It's simple, I want to live here.

You know the region very well.

I'm gonna need you,
your recommendations,

your initiatives.

If what you're saying is...

Sincere.

I am...

I am at a loss for words,
how to avoid commonplaces to express...

So don't say anything.

How is Fernand?

He did a great job for a few days.

Then, he started to float.
He was there, but not really.

He didn't show up for 2 days.

Martial!

Hi Mr Fonfrin.

Come in.

Sorry about the job, these days I'm...

Are we disturbing?

No, it's a pleasure!

I thought we'd never meet again.

Have a seat.

Did you see Francine?

No.

She left... with Rocky,
you know the guy we saw at the...

She works in one of his bars.

Now, I don't know, what, why...

1 will tell you
a banality Fernand, but one lost...

Thank you, I know that one.

Easy to tell others.

I can't get it out of my head,
she's sleeping with this piece of shit,

who's gonna put her on the street.

I'm sorry, I can't...

Don't worry Mr Fonfrin,
I'll be back at the store.

Tomorrow, I promise.

It's often these guys, tough
on the outside and fragile on the inside.

I'm gonna take care of him, count on me.

You know, only time can heal some wounds.

It's funny how we can be wrong.

When I saw you,
I thought it was because of me.

It's right there.

Is Les Loges far from here?

On the other side, why?

So, you're back.

As you can see.

Always for father Fonfrin.

- What will you have?
- A coffee.

I saw the sister in law yesterday.

So, this thing in Paris, is it OK?

Yes, it wasn't so bad after all.

When you disappear, it's
without a word, everyone for himself.

Anyway, I'm not there anymore.

So you left Fernand?

It was not easy.

I was bored. Did you see him?

He must think I'm a slut.

What do you think of the place?
Nice, right?

It's a lot of work, 12 hours a day.

And Rocky is strict.

- He's not in?
- He'll come soon.

Why?
Do you want to invite him to dinner?

I saw that the flat has been
transformed into a gaming place.

I didn't know what to do,
so I gave them the keys.

Here they are.

Do you know each other?

Sure, how are you?

- Are you staying long?
- I don't know.

It depends.

We can see each other if you want.

Yes.

Have a drink?

No, thank you.

Tonight?

Tonight? I don't know if...

Do you need permission?

No!

At what time?

9 O'clock?

OK.

A big garden!

I had to negotiate a lot,
I reduced the price by 33%.

A big sturdy house.

Like our fathers used to love.

We can imagine child's play there.
And it's an excellent investment.

Mr Pasquier.

Can we talk?

Come in.

Thanks.

I came
because Francine and me talk frankly.

I know that it'll bother you,
but she won't come tonight.

Now she lives with me.
And I'm not Fernand. You understand?

Of course, you can see her
at the cafe, you're welcome there.

Sorry.

If you talked to me first,
it would have been different.

We could've talked.

About what?

Ah yes, about of what. I was kidding.

See you soon I hope.

No hard feelings, right?

What's he doing here?
What did you say to each other!

Tell me!

Stop, you're crazy!

What you doing here, love messing
with people's lives with your money?

Does that turn you on?

Fernand, stop. What are you doing?

He won't get away like that this asshole!

My children.

Do you know why he came?

To tell me she won't see me anymore.

There.

Look the state you're in!
Come with me, we'll clean it up.

Do you feel better?

Yes.

Come on, how could you think that
Martial could be friends with that punk.

I know.

So Fernand, ready to go?

Sorry for what I said.

I don't know what to do anymore.

I know I lost Francine. But this guy...

I just can't.

I'm sorry, but my wife is waiting.
I bought tickets for basketball.

It's the quarter finals of Europa's cup.
It's gonna be a great game.

We've got a good team no Fernand?

Yes, I think.

You should come with us.

Let's think of something else.

No thanks.

Let's go Fernand.

I'll call you.

Another please.

No Mr Martial, we're exhausted now!

Yes, a last one.

We have to go.

Anyway it's closing time.

Hey Robert, you're closing!

You're abandoning me.

We are giving you a ride.

Everything is closed?

No.

‘Le Prive' is open,
but it's real shabby.

It's here.

You're not coming?

No, sorry.

Nadine, she's my friend.

She'd like a drink.

We go along very well, us two.

Come with us, if you want?

Sir, Greta.

Hi. Shall we dance?

I'm sorry, where is the restroom?

Over there.

Asshole!

You made quite a mess.

And him? He didn't?

I have to go now.

Thanks for your help.

Don't worry,
I'll stay still he wakes up.

Nothing to say to him?

Nothing, don't tell me I came.

He passed by here,
it was fun, but I don't know him.

He needs to go, elsewhere.

But you helped him.

To imagine him like a larvae
in this rat hole, what a shame.

He won't eat?

Yes.

He asked me only for mineral water.

He always listens to the same disc.

We can't let him like that.

I don't know what to do.

What about his doctor?

It's not medical...

Your wig is nice, it's a warm color.

Yes.

You talked together, right?

It's me who talked.
He, he only asked how is Fernand.

Of course. It's a transfer.

Please Irene,
don't use words you don't know.

You don't have
the exclusivity of psychic decryption.

Maybe a kind of homosexuality?

Please honey,
let's talk about something else.

It's just that he likes
Fernand a lot, that's all.

And where he is?

He disappeared.

I tell you, don't worry.

I'm sure he's fishing,
like when his father died.

He left for 8 days.

Did you know he's poaching fish?

He is what?

Flies. He sets them up to attract fish.

His specialty is English flies.

But only at the start of april.

It doesn't seem much, but
he's making a lot of money with that.

Yes, and a lot of small jobs,

which tend to disappear.

Well, people will alaways go fishing.

Hush.

Listen.

I hear nothing.

Exactly, the music!

The music stopped.

Martial?

Martial?

Are you alright?

Do you need anything?

Coffee and water. Can I
offer you something? Could you sit down?

Yes probably.

Bad weather.

Still there?

Can't live without you.

What if I ask you to live with me,
not a few days, but for real.

What does that mean, for real?

For life? Als long as you like.

You're crazy.

No, I'm not.

Listen Martial,
why are you saying that, now?

Because I'm sure now.

Maybe you are not.

Anyway it's too late.

Why too late.

What about Rocky?

He loves money.

How much I worth? 10, 20, 30?

You think everything is for sale?

I'm just trying to put myself in his shoes.

He doesn't love you.

How do you know that?

It's a feeling.

And you don't love him.

It's your decision, there is no hurry.

But if you want, it's simple.
We get up and we're out of the door.

If you think that Rocky
will let me go like that, he'll find me.

I can kill him too.

Don't be stupid.

How are you?

Don't scare me like that.
You are terrible Martial!

- Are you OK?
- Yes.

We are all there.

A real ‘cordon sanitaire'.

That what friendship is for!

Mr Martial, it's my birthday,
champagne for everyone!

How can you say no!

How old are you?

42...

You are so beautiful!

You're gonna wed soon!

With Max, we wonder if...

In a place like that,
you can really feel the real people!

And where you see their mutations too!

Right, right...

I don't like terrorists, but they are
coherent in theirs convictions!

I never said the commissioner was inept,
I just said he needs better employees.

Mr Mayotte! Are you alright?

It's very good, it was very good!

Hey Rocky, we're thirsty!

I'll go fetch some.

This one is for me!

YOU CRAZY!

Forget it.

There's nothing you can do.

I couldn't miss him.

It needed to happen.

Did somebody see you?

No, I don't think so.

What are you going to do?

Dunno.

Give me.

Listen, nobody saw you.
Go home, stay there, don't move.

My home?

I'll take care of it. Hurry!

You wanna stay in jail for 10 years!

Go.

Don't be scared.

It's terrible but it's over.

It's Fernand, I saw him!

Nobody saw him.

I killed him, it's me.

You'll have to say that.

I can't...

Yes you can.

My god Martial, what have you done?

I'm sorry.

The trial was a simple formality.

Testimony of everyone
confirmed what Martial had decided.

He killed Rocky, his rival,
and this crime of passion was evident.

He was on page 1 of the local paper,
but Regine refused to write the article.

Mr Fonfrin talked with his heart.

Sure, a man was dead.

But he saw in this crime
the end of a particular destiny.

Francine's testimony stated 2 facts.
She arrived too late and saw nothing.

She had nothing more to say.

Madame Pasquier was
barely listing comments from the doctor.

Martial's history will help his case,
but she knew what it meant.

He will be interned
in a psychiatric institute.

When she saw Francine,
she recognized her by instinct.

She thought she was beautiful.

So it was for her...

She wanted to talk to her
but she stayed silent.

Francine got back at Fernand's, and
convinced him not to give himself up.

Slowly, Fernand started to believe
the lie that Martial created.

Until the day he left town.

Francine looked at him, like
a brother, probably for the last time.

They both need to live with this secret.

Walk.

Do you have a light, please?

You're not cold?

I'm OK.

In my country,
it's almost 25 degrees and people swim.
