- [Madame Maigret] Jules, a drink for you?

- Good.

(peaceful music)

- [Madame Maigret]
Something nice and cold

{Maigret sighing)

{Maigret exhaling)

- Oh, that's better.

I ought to spray the aubergine.

- What?

- The aubergine. They're getting blackfly

- Oh, not now.

(sighs) It's too hot.

- Well, we promised to
look after the garden

{Madame Maigret chuckles)

- Can't you rest even on holiday”?

- I am resting

- Oh, I should think that was enough

- Whoa, it's hot, very hot.

Mmm.

(peaceful music)

- [Madame Maigret] Jules,
why aren't you resting?

- You know, if your sister hadn't planted

lettuce in between the roses,

I could've used something
stronger than this

- Well you enjoy eating them.

- I say!

My man

Where's your master?

I want to see your master

- My master?

- It's no good telling me he's not at home

because I inquired in the village.

I have come 100 kilometres
to see Inspector Maigret

and I'm going to see him.

If he's asleep you must
wake him up and tell him

Bernadette Amorelle is here.

Hurry up now

- Madame, I am Inspector Maigret.

- If you say so

- Madame.

Madame.

Won't you sit down?

- Sit down too.

I hate people standing over me

- Ah, yes

Does my name mean anything to you?

- Amorelle”? Uh, barges, quarries?

- Amorelle and Campois

My husband founded the firm.

It is now run by my
son-in-law, Ernest Malik

- [Maigret] Ernest Malik?

- He married Odette, my eldest girl

- Has he got a brother?

- Charles Malik, yes

Ho, don't tell me that Ernest
is known to the police

I've always suspected it.

- No, no, not to the palice

Only to me.

- Yeah, I was at school with Ernest Malik.

What's he like now?

- Clever, but unscrupulous

(Maigret laughing)

- He once sold me 100 Colonial stamps

and they all turned out to be torn.

Yeah, what's more, he'd stolen them

from his brother's collection.

{Bernadette chuckling)

- Typical. Charles asks to be robbed

He's married to Aimee, my younger girl.

- Ah, uh, so your, your two daughters

are married to two brothers,

right?
- Yes,

are you always as slow as this, Inspector?

- I do my best.

- You'll need to be if you're
going to outwit Ernest

- I'm not going to outwit Ernest.

- You certainly will-
- With any luck

I shall never see him again.

- You certainly will

He lives in the villa
next to mine at Orsenne.

- I'm not going to Orsenne

- You have to if you're
going to do the job properly

- The job? I'm on leave

- That's a mere quibble.

You can't refuse the call of duty

- (laughing) Oh yes I can

But your local police can't though

If there's something wrong,

why don't you go to them?

- Uh, because I need
someone exceptionally good

- Hmm, what for?

- To investigate a death

{drinking glass clanks)

- Whose death?

- My granddaughter's.

- Emest Malik's daughter?
- No. no, no, no, no

He has a son, Georges-Henry

This is Charles's girl, Monita

- How'd she die?

- She was drowned in the
river a week ago today

(Maigret tutting)

- Surely there must have
been an inquest by now

- Accidental death. Fools.

She could swim like a fish.

She was just 16

Wild, of course. They are at that age.

She used to complain that I
was too severe and too formal.

But I only wanted her to
grow up to match her looks.

(whimpering) Now she never will.

- What do you think it was
if it wasn't an accident?

- Uh, not suicide. Never

She was a happy child.

- Murder?

- What else is there left?

- But why?

- That's what I want you to find out.

You better take the afternoon train.

It wouldn't do for us to arrive together

And when you get to Orsenne,
go to the Auberge de 'Ange

It's disgusting, but
there's nowhere else to go

Don't stare at me like that.

I'm not mad.

I may be 82 but I have
my wits and my teeth

Don't see me out.

And don't be long

- What did she want?

- Me. (chuckling)

- Well, we're on holiday

- Yeah, she's a marvellous woman

She's the spit of my grandmother.

Do you know, I haven't been spoken

to like that since I was four.

- Whatever it's about, it's
nothing to do with you

- You know. I knew her son-in-law

He was a swindler at the age of eight.

I wonder what he's like know?

- Oh, Jules

- Odette? Odette?

Georges-Henry, what are you doing?

What do you think you're doing”

- I was trying to open the-
- How dare...

My dear boy, I know
you're upset. We all are

Your cousin's death
was an appalling shock

- Don't you dare talk about it

- You mustn't make it an
excuse for hysterical behaviour

and rudeness to your father

- My father.

I know what you are.

- You're being stupid and childish

Go to your room

- I won't.

- Do as you're told!

- Don't you dare touch me

- Georges-Henry.

What's the matter?

- I've sent him to his
room. He's impossible

Is mother back?

- Yes, she's back

- Where did she go?

- According to Francois,

she visited a gardener called Maigret

(water sloshing)

{Maigret huffs)

- Have you got a room?

- Here?

- Well why not?

This is the Auberge de I'Ange isn't it?

- Well it's not really open

- [Jeanne] Raymonde, who is that?

- A customer.

- [Jeanne] Well tell him to go away

- Where to?

- He says, "Where to?"

- [Jeanne] Ch, I don't care

- Oh, very friendly

Wha's she?

- Patron. She stays in bed all the time

Except when she wants
another bottle of wine.

- Well I could do with one
of those too. Crdinaire?

- [Jeanne] Raymonde, is he still there?

- [Raymonde] Yes, he's still here

- Train is gone and he's
got nowhere else to stay

I could make up a bed in
the little room down here.

- Oh, you could, could you?

Well you mind and behave yourself

- Well I could air some sheets then.

- Good evening, Raymonde

As beautiful as ever.

I expect you're busy.

Remember me, Jules? Ernest Malik

- Very well,

- I've followed your
career with great interest

You've done very veell

- You were a partner?
- Though I suppose

you're as badly paid as
most public servants?

- I believe you're a partner
in Amorelle and Campois™?

- Yes. Yes, I run the firm.

Amorelle is dead and poor
old Campois is beyond it

Didn't she tell you?

- Who?

- The old lady, my mother-in-law.

She's worrying about Monita's death

Well, of course it was a shocking thing,

lovely girl like her

None of us will ever really get over it

But, it was an accident

The weir is dangerous.

Ah, terrible stuff

Come up to my house and
have something drinkable

Families have been in the
neighbourhood for generations

It's a very old firm, of
course, Amorelle and Malik,

going to pieces, of course,
before I took it in hand.

But by the way, that's the
Amorelle house other there,

where Bernadette lives.

- And the weir?

- Round the bend of the river,

and a bit further up

Yes, it's a nasty place

We're always complaining
about the footbridge

It's too narrow.

After the rain it gets slippery.

It's obviously how it happened

- Yeah.

- Bernadette gets these fancies

I suppose you've noticed that she's, uh,

how shall I say, eccentric?

- Yes, but it hadn't rained, had it?

- No, no.

This is the way te my house

Let me have your hat.

- Thank you

- Come along in

Ah, Odette, my dear

{lips smacking)

I want you to meet my old friend, Maigret.

- We haven't met since we
were at the same school.

- Monsieur.

- Staying with old Jeanne

Wretched for him.

We could have put you up here, of course,

if it hadn't been for that awful accident.

You do understand?

- Oh yes, of course.

- Scotch? Yes, of course
you'll have a scotch

My mother-in-law is very particular

about observing the conventions

I wouldn't have dared to ask you up if she

hadn't brought you here
in the first place

- Well, that's her house
over there, isn't it?

- Hmm? Yes, it's much
the same size as this.

She shares it with Charles and Aimee.

Did you know my brother?

- No, I don't think I ever met him

- Oh, he's older than I am, of course.

Georges-Henry, come back!

- What was he doing?

- He's sneaking across
to his grandmother's

when I told him to stay in his room.

Well, we'll soon see about that

If you'll excuse me

- Ernest hates to be defied.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

He didn't give you your drink

- Thank you

- Do please sit down

- How old is your son”

- 16. It's such a terribly
difficult age, don't you think”?

Well you simply have to keep
an eye on them all the time

And they resent it.

Oh, not that Georges-Henry is bad, but

Oh, we weren't expecting you

Aimee, this is Inspector,
uh, is it Inspector?

- Yes, Madame.

- Inspector Maigret,

my sister, Aimee
- Monsieur

- Madame.
- And her husband Charles.

- Monsieur.
- Monsieur.

- As a matter of fact, we
came over to see you. Charles?

- Uh, yes, yes

Uh, I believe my mother-in-law
asked you to come here

- She's a remarkable woman.

- Amazing, yes. But old

Very old

She has some extraordinary
idea in her head that Monita,

well you know about our daughter?

About Monita's accident?

- Yes, terrible tragedy for you

- A terrible accident.

As you may imagine, we
don't want to talk about it.

- Accept to say that it was an accident

We know that it was.

- How do you know?

- (crying) Can you doubt it?

- Aimee, dear.

(Aimee sobbing)

- So you see how it is?

All we want is to be left alone.

- Yes, of course. I'm sorry

- Let's talk about something else

Do sit down, Inspector.

(train whistle blowing)

Oh, 10 past 7

- That's the good's train from Corbeil.

The line runs past the end of the garden

Uh, luckily it's not a very busy line,

otherwise, it might bother us

- Let me fill your glass, Inspector

- No, thank you

- Did you find him?

- Yes, he'd gone to his grandmother

I'm sorry to have rushed out like that,

but you know how it is.

- Yes, indeed I do

You and just want to be left alone.

(footsteps shuffling)

- Who's that for?

- Monsieur Maigret.

- Oh, well you're not to take it into him

- Make him come out here for it.

- What does she think I am?

(tray clatters)

- Aman.

- Oh.

- Hmm, this came for you, by hand

- Hmm?

- Oh, you need some more sugar.

- Thank you

- Ernest Malik would like me to attend

a small luncheon party today

- A good chef

- Yeah, I know. I dined there last night

What do you think of them?

- Hmm, they're rich

- Did you, uh, know the
little girl, Monita?

- Yeah, she was nice

- And Georges-Henry”?

- Well, everyone likes him

- Did Monita?

- Yes, they were inseparable

- Were they in love”?

- What?

- Love.

- Yes, but of course
they were only children

- Yes, they were only children

- Ch
- Oh, Madame

- Some coffee, Madame?

- No, no thank you

Finish your breakfast

Have you found out anything?

- Yes, that, uh, they
want to be left alone.

- And are you going to leave them alone?

- No, I'm gonna have
lunch with them today

- Uh, try to talk to Georges-Henry.

- He's at your house, isn't he?

- No.

- Well he ran there yesterday.

- I haven't seen him for two days

- Oh, well in that case,

I've learned something else.

Ernest is still a liar.

(tense music)

{gentle unsettled music)
(water sloshing)

{gentle peaceful music)

- He's coming up now

I'll take him into the study

Keep Charles out of the way,
you know what a fool he is

- Odette too?

- Yes. Yes, I'll call when
we're ready for a drink.

- Monsieur Maigret.

- Jules, I'm glad you've come early.

Let's go to the study.

I saw you down at the weir

Looking at the scene of the accident?

- You know where that is?

- At the weir.

- That's where you found her.

- Quite right, of course

She might have gone in somewhere else

You're a great detective

- Where's your son?

- Somewhere.

- At his grandmothers”?

- Perhaps. Why don't you ask her?

- [ have.

- Then he must be somewhere else?

- Where?

- Where I choose that he shall be.

- I should have liked to meet him.

- Perhaps you'd like to
come and visit us again

when things are happier.

- [ doubt it.

- You mean that once you're
gone, you're gone for good?

- Well I should think so.

- With some compensation

for an interrupted holiday, 2,0007

All right then, three, but that's the top

We'll go down to the bank at once

And then I'll drive you home, yes?

- Careful, you might hurt yourself

{letter opener clatters)

- What else do you want?

- I wanted to see your son

- Well you can't

n Why?
- 'Cause I say you can't

Is that clear enough?

All we want you to do is to
go away and leave us alone

People are beginning to talk.

- What about”?

- Any stupid gossip that
comes into their head,

so leave us alone.

Are you taking my offer?

- No.

- Very well, now we know where we stand.

But I warm you, I could
make trouble for you

I'm a bigger man than you are

I've come a long way since
we last knew each other.

- You must tell me all about it sometime.

- Monsieur Campois

- [Ernest] What do you want”?

- I had an invitation to lunch.

-Sodid I.

Uh, excuse me, Monsieur.

You are Monsieur Malik's partner?

- In the firm, yes.

His partner in the firm

If I'm interrupting,

I'l go
- No, no, no

My visit is over. Au revoir

- A peasant, that's what he is

- [Roger] What's his name”

- An inquisitive peasant.

I expect he'll try to question you

Yes, and you'll be fool
enough to answer him

What shall we do about you?

(foreboding music)

- There'll be trouble if she finds out.

- Why?

- She said, "No lunches."

(Maigret chuckles)

- Doesn't she want to make some money?

- Hmm, she wants to sell the place

(Maigret laughing)

- Who'd buy?

- That's what Monsieur Ballu said.

- Monsieur Ballu, who's he?

- He's Madame Amorelle's lawyer

He's looks in for a drink sometimes

when he comes to see her,

and old Jeanne picks his
brain for free advice.

- Oh yeah. Uh, wait.

Now, when did he last come down here?

- Oh, day before Monita died

- Are you sure”?

- Certain.

He told old Jeanne she
ought to make a will

and she said it was unlucky

- Yeah?

- And there was this death.

- Hmm, did he come down here

to talk to Madame Amorelle about her will?

- Hmm, I should think so

I mean, I suppose that's what
started them talking about it

Are you staying on here?

- Hmm, I think so. Sante.

{glasses clinking)

- There's, uh, not much to do

- Oh, I don't know

I think that this afternoon

I shall go spying. (chuckles)

{gentle apprehensive music)

{gentle uneasy music)

{gentle foreboding music)

(gentle suspenseful music)

(dog barking)

{gentle uneasy music)

(phone ringing)

- Lucas. Uh, the Patron?

Uh, well, uh, no, no, of course not.

He's on holiday still, officially

Uh, what?

Well they shouldn't go to such places,

they wouldn't have their pockets picked

- Lucas, this is the first time

I've ever sat in this chair. (chuckles)

- Tourists, eh?

Well look, tell them to
go to the Champs-Elysees

The robbery's legal there.

- This office looks entirely
different from here

[ only hope that I don't
look as grim as you do

{Lucas laughing)

- You're supposed to be on holiday

Why have you come back”

Have you-
- Yes, well anyway,

I'm not here. I'm invisible.

Forget about me.

But tell me, where can I find

that little animal trainer we used to use?

Ah, Mimille.
(fingers clicking)

- Ah, Mimille

Now he's with the Circus Bouglione

They'd be on the road this time

Shall I go and find him?

- No, ne. You stay in the seat of honour.

Hey, look at this,

"Best wishes from Corsica,
Torrance.” (chuckles)

Oh, there's one other thing.

Check on the two directors of a firm

called Amorelle and Campois.

- Amorelle, Campois
- Charles Malik

and Ernest Malik, all right?

- Good. Anything known?

- Only to me

{gentle uneasy music)

- Do, uh, do you want
(tigers growling)

fo kill him?

- No, no, no

- Ah then it is very tricky

You've got to get it just right

And of course, he must trust you

- He won't.

- Oh then, no good. Not a hope

What you need is Mimille

- Will you come?

- Where to?

- Orsenne, it's out on the river.

- If I can find a one-legged Turk, yes

- One-legged Turk?

- Yes, he looks after
the tigers when I'm away

- Oh, they know him, huh?

- They should. (chuckling)

They ate his leg. (chuckling)

- Ah, here he comes

Now mind you do as I told you

(Raymonde sighs)

- Well what should I say to him?

- You don't have to say anything

Give him that.

- Ah, Raymonde

Hmm? What's this?

My bill?

- Service included.

- I never said I was going.

- It's her. She's selling the place

- Who too?

- Monsieur Malik.

- Ernest Malik?

- Yes.

- Was he here today?

- Mm-hmm.

(door bangs)
{footsteps tapping)

- Ah, and a very good
afternoon to you, Mademoiselle.

A pastis for Mimille

- Yes, one for me too

There, you can add it to my bill

Come over here.

You shouldn't have come in here.

- But you can't get a drink anywhere else

I tried. I know.

Disguise.

Ahl
{(Raymonde gasping)

Cyrano de Bergerac.

- Do you know him?

- But everybody knows Mimille

Don't you go to the circus?

Last time I was down
this way 10 years ago,

human cannonball.

Oh, you should have seen me then

Now I just feed the tigers.

What about that drink?

{Maigret chuckling)

When do we start?

- Before dark.

- Oh well then we will need

three, nice, juicy, entrecote steaks

- Three?

- Yeah, one for him,

one for me,

and. uh, one for a friend

{gentle uneasy music)

(gentle suspenseful music)

Now.

(dog barking)

- How much longer?

- That should do it.

Come on.

{gentle suspenseful music continues)

He'll sleep till morning

(knuckles tapping)

- Georges-Henry, don't be afraid

We're your friends

(door rattling)

Georges-Henry?

Come away with us

- Go away.

- I'm a police officer

- I hate the police

- Why?

- You can't do anything.

It's nothing to do with you.

Go away

(dramatic suspenseful music)

- Good advice, Inspector,

but I'm afraid you can't take it

You've broken into my property

The law says I may shoot you.

- Get the boy

out of here.
- Put your hands up!

- Let the boy go

- Very well,

Come on, Georges-Henry,
you've been punished enough

- Don't be afraid.

- Go up to the house

- No!

- Go up to the house!

- After him!
(Ernest thuds)

(footsteps thudding)

(gun clicking)

- I had a right to shoot you

You forced an entry

- Make a complaint

- will.

Believe you me, I will

You're interfering in something

which is none of your business.

- A death.

- Known to be an accident.

This is a family affair.

The boy won't tell you anything.

- Very well, I'll ask him if
there's something to tell

Georges-Henry! Mimille!

- You've lost him.

- Nevermind, I'll speak to
his grandmother instead

Madame, there are one or two questions

that I must ask you

- Oh, sit down

For heaven's sake, sit down

- Why did your lawyer visit you last week?

- Because I sent for him.

- Why?

- Because I wanted to change my will

- In what way”?

- In favour of Monita, Georges-Henry

Why should I leave money to those Maliks?

- You're fond of Georges-Henry?

- He's a good boy

- Did you know that his father has been

keeping him prisoner?

- No. Where's he gone now”?

- He's escaped

- But where to?

Why didn't he come here?

Ever since he was a little boy,

he always used to come
to me with his troubles.

- Rather than his mother?

(Bernadette snarls)

- [Bernadette] Odette,
she's an empty headed fool.

- Hmm, her husband isn't though

- Oh no, Ernest is no fool,
whatever else he may be

- Yeah, unlike his brother, Charles

- Hmm? Oh, banality

Not a thought in his head

- It's curious.

Now, his wife strikes me as intelligent.

- Aimee”? Oh, she's bright enough

Aimee and Ernest both.

I've often wondered why he

- Why he preferred the fool?

- I see no point in discussing

the relevant intelligence of my family

- Unless it has some bearing

on the present behaviour of your grandson

- You, oh, you can't account
for the actions of children

- You called me here to
account for Monita's actions.

- I wanted help

I'm an old and overbearing woman

and you came when I asked
you and I'm grateful

- I can still help, Madame.

- Uh, no

I was wrong to go outside the family.

You will have spent a
certain amount of money

- Are you, uh, buying me off?

- To compensate you

Please, Inspector

I realise now that this
is purely a family affair

- Ernest said that too.

Au revoir, Madame

{Bernadette sighing)

- Beat that.

Uh, uh, but

{Marcel chuckles)

{Lucas laughing)

Oh well, lucky in love

(phone ringing)

- Lucas. Ah, Patron.
(elephants trumpeting)

What? I, I'm sorry, I can't catch that.

There's noise on the line.

Sounds like an elephant.

- Tis an elephant.

What have you got on Malik?

- Uh, I found a man who knew him,

Marcel Marchand, ex-croupier.

Sacked from Le Touquet
for rigging the wheel

Three charges for illegal
gambling clubs, and-

- Yes, I remember him

Well don't play cards with him

- Oh, I wouldn't dream of it, again.

Uh, shall I get his
story, or wait for you?

Right, I will. Goodbye

Well, down to work.

Now what do you remember
about Ernest Malik?

- Malik. Well I haven't
seen him for 18 years.

I had this nice little
club in the Avenue Ruche.

He got me into trouble

- [Lucas] Reported you?

- No, no.

No, he brought in a man

he said was going to
be his brother-in-law.

He must have lost thousands

by the time he shot
himself in my cloakroom

- Shot himself in the cloakroom.

What was his name?

- Ah, um, uh, uh,

Roger Campois

- Son of Maurice Campois,
partner to Ernest Malik, hmm?

- Get me Corbeil 2498 please. Hurry

- I could see at once
he was the sort of man

who should never be allowed
near a roulette wheel,

but Malik encouraged him.

Told him it was just a question

of hanging on 'til his luck turned,

and never did.

Never does.

Only the wheel turns

- Corbeil? Monsieur
Maurice Campois please

He's not? How long ago?

An hour?

A Norwegian cruise?

Uh, Gare Saint-Lazare. Right, thank you.

- Revenge?

- How'd you like to go on a cruise?

- A what?

- There's gonna be a vacant berth

Come on.

- Ah, Mimille

Whew, want some air in here.

- Oh, I, I had to keep the
hyena in here all last week

Yes, he had a very bad cold

- Well, Georges-Henry, how are you?

- Leave me alone.

- But you came with me
here of your own freewill.

- lwant to go. You've
no right to keep me

- No, none at all

What are you running away from, huh?

What are you escaping from, your father?

- It's my business

- What is?

- There's nothing I can tell you.

- Georges-Henry, were
you in love with Monita?

(Georges-Henry groaning)

- Oh, we, we'll have to
put you with the tigers

{Georges-Henry crying)

- All right. I can wait

{sombre music)

{uneasy music)

- Five o'clock.

- Cld Campois' car drove past an hour ago

Where was he going?

- No idea.

- Where's Georges-Henry?

- Nobody's seen him?

- I have sent the detective away

- There was nothing for him to do

- No. This was always a family matter.

Sit down. Sit down!

You are going to tell me the truth.

- There's nothing to tell

- There is a lot to tell

and we shall stay here
until it has been told.

- This is an outrage

If I miss my train, I
shall sue the police

- Optimist.

- Thank you, Marcel

Now you can go back to your tourists

Leave them a shirt to get home in.

- For your sake, Patron. Au revoir

- Au revoir
- Monsieur Maigret,

may I get some sense out of you?

This man is to take me.

I have a train-
- Monsieur Campois-

- To catch.
- Will you come

into my office?
- But, I, uh

- This won't take very long

- Georges-Henry! What's he doing here?

- First, Monsieur Campois,

why are you going to Norway?

- On a cruise, visiting the fjords

- De you want to ge?

- I'm doing it

- Sit down, Monsieur

Now, Monsieur Campois, how old are you?

-78.

- 78, and suddenly you want to go cruising

round the fjords

When did you buy your ticket?

- Some time ago.

- Yesterday? We can find out, you know

- I have a perfect right
to go where I want

- Or where you're sent?

Can the firm manage without you?

- It's managed without me
ever since he got control

- Malik?

- He's the one you ought to be questioning

- We know all he's prepared to tell us

- And I know nothing

- You know why your son, Roger, died?

- Oh, that was long ago.

- But you know?

- It's all forgotten now

- You know.

- Malik drove him to it.

- That's why he died, but how?

- Got in the way

- What?

- In Malik's way.

- Over the business?

- And the family.

- Hmm, how?

- I don't know anything,
nothing for certain

- Georges-Henry, do you knows
what he's talking about?

All right, Lucas, take him to his train

- [Lucas] Monsieur

- I know now why he
wanted you out of the way

- [Lucas] Watch your step

{upbeat band music)

- [Lucas] Excuse me, excuse me.

- The circus is beginning

Do you like circuses?

Georges-Henry, you know what the old man

was talking about, don't you?

"The family," he said,
something about your family

Your father drove his son,
Roger Campois, to suicide

Did he do the same to Monita?

(Georges-Henry sobbing)

Tell me.

- Monita wanted to drown.

- Why?

- It was something she heard.

- And told you?

- It was the evening before.

She was on the terrace
and she heard my father

and Uncle Charles talking indoors

It was about Grandmama's will at first.

Father grew angry with Uncle Charles

and reminded him why he
married him to Aunt Aimee.

- And why had he?

- Because my father was her lover

He'd only married my mother

because he was in a hurry
to get into the firm

- Yes, but why make your
Aunt Aimee marry his brother?

- Because she was going to have a child,

my father's child

Don't you see?

Monita was my sister

- Filthy!

(palm slaps)
{Aimee sobbing)

- I love him. And he loves me. (sobbing)

- You all knew that I'd
changed my will, didn't you?

Didn't you?

And Ernest wasn't going to have that

So Monita hears that
her mother has no morals

and her father is a killer.

But why should Ernest tell
Charles what he knows already?

Why? Why?

- I don't know, I swear it. (sobbing)

- You know and I know.

He wanted Monita to hear.

He wanted her to die.

He killed her in the same way
that he killed Roger Campois

by making life intolerable

Get out of my sight

(Aimee sobbing)

{upbeat band music)

- But you haven't done
what he wanted you to do

You haven't killed yourself.

- No. All I can do to
hurt him is to stay alive

- Now don't think like that.

- Can you do any better?

Can you touch him? Can the law?

- No.

- And vet, two deaths

- No crime.

We have no power

{solemn foreboding music)

{ominous music)

- Hello, mother.

What would you like?

Malik, I know what you did

- What do you mean”

Nol

- Someone has got to do this

No one else can.

{ominous music)
{gunshots cracking)

{Earnest groans)

{gentle solemn music)

- What about these money lending contracts

signed by Roger Campois?

Were they kept in here?

- Yes.

- Georges-Henry tried to break it open

- What have you done with them”

- Burnt them.

- Pity, your defence might have used them

- No, that kind of scandal
is better kept in the family

{door bangs)

- Car is waiting, Madame.

- Oh. (groans)

Au revoir, Monsieur

I apologise for having interrupted
your holiday for nothing

- Nothing?

- Nothing for you

Only a dirty house

- It's a grandmother's job to clean it up
