All language subtitles for Le Gagnant 1979

That's good.

Good.

What a piece of shit.

Let's move it.

OK?

That's good.

Like I was saying, I'll
go on unemployment

for a year and
make 90% easy, right?

I can still do small
jobs here and there.

You get it?

Then after a year,
when my unemployment runs out,

you give me your spot

and you take it easy for a year.

Then we start over again.

Hang on.

- You don't get it.
- Yes, I do. If I understand you right,

we work every other year…

Right.

…but get paid
the whole time.

You got it, man!

Hey! You're not
a complete idiot!

- Hey…
- Oh, right. Shit.

Come in, madam.

As you can see,
it's an old apartment.

But any renovations you do,

or that we do for you,

- will be tax-deductible!
- I certainly hope so.

And it's an excellent location,
I'm telling you.

- What about renting?
- That's no problem.

- What about that chimney?
- Oh, that will be gone.

There's a big urban development
project, flowers, etc.

Do you have a
renovation estimate?

Yes, of course. Not in my head,
but my secretary can give it to you later.

- Did you see how she looked at you?
- Stop it.

You're onto something.

Stop it. Be careful.
They might hear us.

- It could be something good!
- Shh! Shut up.

Madam, my advice would be
to make up your mind as soon as possible.

Yes. I'll talk to my
husband tonight.

Just call me tomorrow morning.

- He won't be there, but I can tell you.
- Excuse me.

Can you give me your
phone number again?

- 747-15-73.
- OK.

7, 4, 7, 1, 5, 7, 3. Yes.

Here.

Her husband won't
be there tomorrow.

You have some nerve…

Ah! I think that's
my daughter.

Hurry up! I
have dance class in 10 minutes.

- Otherwise you take a taxi.
- No, I'm coming!

Surrounded,

Walled in,

Buried, we are surrounded,

Surrounded

We are in a circle

I hope you haven't lost the key

The key

To this circle

Stone

Rolling stone gathers no moss,

No moss

The moss of respect,
the moss of comfort

The moss of the past

The moss of death, the moss

The moss

Yes! And go!

We will roll out of this circle

Like a stone that takes the key

To the fields

To the fields

So, Thierry.
When's the wedding?

Late September, early October.
Right, kitten?

Did you see that?

I lost them!

Thankfully!

I don't think you
lost them for long.

Where did they come from?

Go faster!

Hey.

- Do you know him?
- You're funny. How would I know?

Ask him nicely to
take off his helmet.

I'm sure that's
what he's waiting for.

Very funny.

- Hey!
- Can't you turn here?

Turn, turn…

You think I can
just turn? I can't turn!

Did you see that?

Why did you follow that car?
You didn't warn us.

What's with you,
man? Are you crazy?

Warn us next time you lose it.

A crush. I have a
crush on that girl.

Well, you can kiss
your crush goodbye.

The ride stops here.

Quit joking for five minutes.

Why?

Wouldn't we be better off in there
than somewhere else?

Have you seen yourself?
With your face and our clothes?

You think they'll
let you in there?

Look.

In here.

Here we go!

Is that cotton?

Yeah, it's cotton.

Then T-shirts for everyone!

Let's go, Daddy-O.

Oh, how cute!

Here you go.

Hello, you.

I can tell you
take dance classes.

And I can tell you don't.
How did you know that?

Just a feeling.

- Do you want a drink?
- I'm coming.

Do you ever ride on the Champs-Élysées
with a big blue helmet

and 3,000 friends with you?

- How did you know that?
- Just a feeling.

Bye.

Hey.

Was that the girl in the car?

I can't hide anything from you.

You make friends fast, man.

My dear, if you keep coming home

at 4:00am, I
think your exams…

Don't worry.
I'll pass them.

Hello?

Well?

There was no one home.

I'll call back later.

Not only did you come home at 4:00 am,
but on a motorcycle!

So? What's the problem?
Are you spying on me?

- Do I know the young man?
- No.

Can I ask what he does?

Am I dreaming? Do
I ask who you work with at the bank?

As long as you live
here, it's our right

and responsibility to
know where she is!

Laurent is a plumber.

Do you mean he runs
a sanitation company?

No. He's a plumber.

He does the welding.

A plumber!

Oh, that's very interesting.
I happen to have a sink

that's not working.
Can you ask him to come?

With your daughter's connections,
maybe we won't have to wait six months.

Sure, I'll tell him.
I'll tell him tonight.

Private school,

tennis at the club, skiing at Courchevel,
birthdays at Maxim's…

And she ends up with a plumber.

I was going almost 200km/hr

and those asshole bikers
were still on my ass!

So I stepped on the gas

and around 220km/hr,
I started to lose them.

And you didn't
see them after that?

Yes, at the tollbooth.

Did you forget to tell him
to come fix the toilet?

Everyone in their place.

The ice is broken!

What do they say about the number 12 in
Lotto magazine?

12? 12…

12?

Ah! 12…

"Looking good.
Should come up soon.

"Often seen
alongside 42."

Yes, that's what I thought.

What about 14?

Lotto Weekly
says it's not looking good.

It hasn't come up much
and they don't see it coming up soon.

How do the newspapers
know all that?

It's mathematical.

They do it with computers.

Something's wrong with Laurent.

Haven't you noticed the past few
days he's been…

He's at that age.
It will pass. Don't worry.

If we could just win…

We could buy the La Rosa house
and help him out.

Quit dreaming.

If you want to win, we have work to
do. Come on.

Hello.

Ah! I was expecting you.

Have I seen you somewhere?

- Yes. The apartment on Rue de Miromesnil.
- Ah! Yes, that's right.

I remember you.

In the end, we didn't buy it.

That was a good
decision. It was a dump.

If you say so, I have
even fewer regrets.

It's this way. It's
the bathroom sink.

- Here.
- Excuse me.

It's clogged. I've tried everything.
Nothing worked.

- Now it's your turn.
- I'll take a look, madam.

It's not very interesting.

Why not? I'm interested in anything
having to do with Dominique.

So her boyfriend…

Tell me.

Are you looking at Dominique's boyfriend
or the young guy from the apartment?

The man who calls and hangs up.

It wasn't me who called.

And you're shy, too!

If it weren't
for Dominique…

No, listen.
Let's be serious.

I want to know who my daughter is
seeing. That's normal.

It looks like she
has good taste.

So let's be friends.

Yes. Let's be friends.

Do you know Dominique
is not my daughter?

I know.

So my mother is in Colorado
with her new husband

and my father married Hélène.

Do you see your mother often?

Enough.

- She can get free flights.
- OK.

Everyone else
gets things for free.

I'm the only working fool.

I work too.
School, dancing…

- Studying takes work, you know.
- I know. I do it too.

Really?

- I take night classes.
- In what?

A bit of everything.

Technology, business law

and applied math.

You little sneak.
You didn't tell me that!

What did Thierry study?

Oh, something vaguely
related to business

and banking.

Your parents must love him.

My parents might,

- but I don't.
- Well, he's trying his best to get you to.

Oh, you animal!

You know you look pretty good.

I'm in a meeting.
Don't disturb me.

PROBABILITIES FOR THE
NEXT LOTTERY DRAWING

HIGHEST PROBABILITY:
7-18-32-38-42-46

Yes?

I'm sure you have your hair
pulled back today.

I have a customer
with an overdraft of 172.42 francs

who wants to
withdraw 200 francs.

He says he knows you.

Laurent Demaison,

account number 5402M.

I don't know him. I
mean, I'm coming.

You know I can never resist
the pleasure of seeing you.

Mr. Denoël is coming.

Mr. Demaison.

Oh, I see.

I didn't know you
were… a customer here.

That's right.

- How did you know…
- I fixed the toilets.

So it was Hélène… I mean,

Mrs. Dupré-Granval…

- Exactly.
- Let me see.

I see you have an overdraft
of 172.42 francs.

And a check for 107.18 francs
came in this morning.

Should I pay
him, Mr. Denoël?

Hang on…

I'm sorry.

It's not a lot of money,
and it's the first time.

Of course, but…

Now with the new law on checks,

we can't do whatever we want.

Sir?

This is Thierry.

Sir, I have

a Mr. Laurent
Demaison here.

Yes. He has an overdraft
of 172.42 francs

and would like to
withdraw 200 francs.

But we also just
received a check

for 107.18 francs.

Denoël, don't
bother me with…

Yes, I know, sir.
No, but this is…

Laurent Demaison.

Yes, the plumber.

Your daughter's…

Ah! OK. You
should've said that right away.

Send him to my office.

I can't get any work
done around here.

The work never ends.

Mr. Dupré-Granval
will see you

in his office on
the fourth floor.

- The clerk will take you.
- Thank you.

Now the boss is seeing people
for overdrafts of 172.42 francs?

I see people for
less than that…

Mr. Thierry! I
already told you no.

And you're engaged
to Miss Dupré-Granval.

Yes. I'll be
the boss soon.

Oh, you!

Think about it and let me know
this afternoon. I'm free tomorrow night.

I'll ask
Mr. Dupré-Granval

about account number 5402M.

Hello, sir.

Do you know my
daughter is engaged?

No.

Well, I'm telling you.
Didn't my wife tell you?

- No.
- Well, it's not official, but…

It might as well be.

So tell me…

You have an overdraft?

- And a check came in this morning?
- Yes, but it's not much.

I know, my
friend. I know.

3.7 million?
Well, pay him.

I know he has an overdraft.

Now… What was I
saying? Oh, yes!

No, it's not much money,

but it's a matter of principle.
Do you know we're closely watched?

I understand that.

Are those your wife's ancestors?

How did you guess that?

People usually
think they're mine.

Yes.

Sir?

What do I do with the check
for 107.18 francs, Laurent Demaison,

account number 5402M?

Pay it.

And he can take his 200 francs.

- Very well, sir.
- But be careful next time.

And when you come into a bank,
take your hat off, at the very least.

Micheline.
Micheline, the little bank teller.

- Yes.
- I think he seduced her.

It sounds like the only feather
missing from his cap is Dominique.

The only one missing is Dominique.
Yes, but I'm there.

And so am I.

I'll get it, Manuella.

- Hello, madam.
- Hello.

You again?

Today it's the
bathtub. In my bedroom.

- I'll show you where it is.
- No need. I know.

- Goodbye, Mrs. Dupré-Granval.
- Goodbye.

It's fine.

Yes, it's fine. But I
wanted to see you.

You could have called me.

You wouldn't have
come. Have a seat.

Since I'm here, go ahead.

My daughter, well, Dominique,
likes you a lot.

I even think she loves you.

- Yes, but…
- Let me finish.

Dominique and I are very close.
She listens to me, you know.

She's practically
engaged to Thierry.

My husband likes the idea,

and I must say
I don't dislike it.

And Thierry can take over the bank
while all I can do is fix toilets.

I knew you'd understand.

- Understanding doesn't solve anything.
- I'm not so sure.

You're not?

Thierry works in the bank,

but he has no vision,
while you are the opposite.

- How do you know?
- I can just tell!

- You can learn banking, but the rest…
- But I don't want to be a banker.

I take night classes so I can have
a little plumbing business. That's it.

See! I was right.

Listen, Laurent.

If you want things
to go well with Dominique,

I think you have to
get on my good side.

And how do I do that?

We have to be friends.

- Demaison?
- Yes.

Phone call.

- Hello?
- Laurent?

Yes.

- How'd you find me?
- Lucky guess.

Will you pick me up from dance class
and we can go eat?

OK. No problem.

But I have another
class: Math in Action.

So do I. I'll be
done in an hour.

I'll see you later then.

I have to go. The
teacher is coming. Bye.

All right!

We'll see what you remember

from my first lesson
on probability. Here.

Pass these out.

- Are these lottery tickets?
- Yes.

And they're an
excellent exercise.

One ticket per person.

The first exercise is easy.

What are the odds,

when you fill out one ticket,

of getting three numbers right?

What are the odds of getting

four, five

and then six numbers

and retiring in the sun?

Get to work! You
should be done by now.

Yes?

A one in 57 chance
of getting three numbers right,

a one in 1,032 chance
of getting four numbers right,

a one in 55,491 chance
of getting five numbers right,

and a one in 13,983,816 chance
of getting all six numbers right.

Correct!

- Does everyone agree?
- Yes.

Sir,

can you remind me
how we figure that out?

It's a combination of six numbers,
three by three out of 49,

six numbers, four by four,

six numbers, five by five,
and six numbers, six by six.

Perfect!

- Does everyone agree?
- Yes.

So you have
around one chance in 14 million

of guessing all six numbers.

Coming here every night

is a safer way of
improving your future.

In the meantime,
I'll give you a little homework

before we move on
to the law of large numbers.

You'll all fill
out these tickets.

You get eight chances,

which will cost you eight francs,
as I imagine you know.

After the drawing,

find out how much
was bet in total.

Taking into account

the money that
the Lottery retains

and the taxes the government
obviously takes out, calculate

how many players guessed

three correct numbers,
how many players guessed

four correct numbers,

how many players guessed
five correct numbers

and how many
players guessed six.

I'll give you one free number.

- What if we win?
- If you win?

You'll win the right to never
have to see me again.

I'll meet you at the café.

- OK?
- OK.

Thank you.

Could I borrow a pen?

Thank you.

You're playing the lottery now?

No, I'm doing my homework.

Your homework?

Our math teacher

asked us to calculate
our chances of winning the lottery.

Do you have a good
chance of winning?

- Can I help you?
- What do you want?

- Coffee.
- Coffee for me too, please.

Around one chance in 14 million.

Give me a number from 1 to 49.

- 23.
- 23.

23. Why 23?

Just because.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Now I see why everyone plays.

For a few francs,
you buy a few hours of happiness

until the draw.

I have to go to a party at home.

Come with me. Then
I won't be so bored.

Look at what I'm wearing!
What about your parents?

- Exactly.
- What about Thierry?

Kiss me.

Ah, hello.

Nice to meet you, sir.

Thierry Denoël,
my future son-in-law.

Mr. and Mrs. Merret.

Nice to meet you.
Congratulations.

I've seen you
before at the bank.

Mr. Denoël is
one of my closest associates.

Come in. Don't
just stand there.

Come on.

Are you sure they
won't mind? Because…

My father told me to invite my friends.
You're my only friend.

Make yourself at home.

He's in red with the Bank of France
and he's my biggest customer.

- How much is he worth?
- 120, 150 million.

Ah, I see.

And you know…

Did Dominique bring him?

I don't know.
She didn't tell me.

It's…

We'll have to do something.

What a nice surprise, Laurent.

- Dominique…
- It was an excellent idea!

My husband and I thought

you wouldn't be interested
in a reception like this.

Obviously, otherwise…

- Madam, I think the ice is in the kitchen.
- Yes.

No, I'd rather you stayed here.

Very well, madam.

Laurent, come help me.

How nice of you
to come say hello.

Yes, I wanted to come.

Hélène wants to talk to you.
She's in the kitchen.

- Really?
- I think she needs your help.

- Hélène.
- Yes?

I need to talk to you.

Go ahead. Oh…

- I think there's a problem with…
- Hang on.

- …my zipper.
- Oh, it's nothing.

There.

Dominique!

Dominique, listen to me!

No! Don't touch me!
You're such a loser!

- You're a loser!
- I didn't do anything! Let me explain!

After that old song,

here's the song that will be
the hit of the summer!

OK. That wasn't great,
because the transition was all wrong.

You have to wait
for the transition, OK?

I'll show you. Listen.

Listen. You'll see.
You have to wait

for the second record to blend
with the percussion before you transition.

OK?

- Yeah, you're right.
- OK.

For this special
block, here's a new song

that will be a hit in all the
clubs this year.

It's "Rain or Shine."

- OK. See that?
- Yes.

- Should I do it like you?
- No. Try not to imitate me too much.

Be yourself. Have fun.
Do a good transition

and look at the people in the room,
because everyone is watching you.

- Really?
- Yes. That's very important.

OK. From the top.

- So I can do whatever I want?
- Yes. Do whatever you feel.

- OK.
- Can I start the music?

Start the music.

This is the hit
song of the week.

This is it!

Straight from the USA.

You'll love dancing to this.

Yes…

OK. That wasn't bad. See?
That was very good.

Come back tomorrow and we'll do it again,
but that was good.

Just be yourself, have fun

and don't imitate me.

- OK.
- See you tomorrow.

- I think I get it now.
- OK.

You'll see tomorrow.
It'll be great.

- Great.
- Yeah. I think I've got it.

Now, your turn, same transition.

Hey.

What's with the long face?

It's over with Dominique.

That's great.

We can start partying again.

She had you
locked up for a while.

Quit joking around.

Come on.
There's plenty of fish in the sea.

No! Don't be an
idiot. Come on.

What an idiot. Hey…

Come on. We're not done.
Show him how we heat things up.

We're not done.

OK. I'm coming.

No. Madam is not here.

Neither is her daughter.

Madam asks you to stop calling.
Dominique does not want to see you again.

Dominique, listen to me.

Leave her alone.

I'm here to keep you
from bothering the lady.

Could I see
Mr. Denoël, please?

Hello, Mr. Demaison.
I'll call Mr. Denoël.

Mr. Demaison is here.

OK. Very well.

Mr. Denoël isn't here.

- Maybe you have an overdraft and…
- Really?

- Of how much?
- 243.17 francs.

243.17 francs…

OK. I'll try to get it.

Not even three numbers, dammit.

- The boss got four.
- How do you know?

Easy. He always
plays his birthday:

2, 8, 19, 23.

And his license plate number.

Unfortunately, he
has the wrong number.

We could fix that.

You want to change
his license plate?

No, but we could
change the numbers.

Look.

- You'll give him a heart attack.
- No!

Do you know the
number on his CX?

- Yes. 32, 43…
- And 92!

- Yes.
- OK. I'll replace 31

with 32, 47

with 43…

- There.
- Perfect. He won 83 million francs.

Well, that's what he'll think.

I'd give half that
to be in his office.

Sir, I have another request
from the Circle Company.

- Pay them.
- But they still have an overdraft.

Just pay them.

- Sir…
- Yes?

A bad check.

Why do checks
always have to be good?

Pay it.

Pay them all.

There you go!

We skipped the 20s
and there was one in there.

- How much was it this time?
- Don't ask…

The big prize was 830 million.

What? What did you say?

If you saw your face, you'd run away.
What's with you?

Let him have his
breakfast in peace.

830 million…

I left my money for the month
on the table.

With three numbers,

we won 12.80 francs.

I don't believe you.

When did you come home last night?
Or this morning?

I don't know when I came home,
but I can tell you I woke up at 5:30 am.

I fixed two bathtubs and a sink.

You may wake up early
but you shouldn't go to bed late.

2, 8,

19, 23, 31 and 47.

If we'd made our little Xs

a few millimeters next to where
we put them,

we'd have 830 million.

- Don't tell me you played?
- No.

I'm just looking.

When will you
start getting serious?

Now. I'm going to
do my homework.

Sorry. Well, pick it up!

I don't know the winner's name.

He didn't have to put his name
on the ticket…

How could I remember his face?

I sell thousands
of tickets here.

830 million!

What would you do if
you won that amount?

I've never thought about it!

But if it ever happens to me,
I'm sure I'll have a few ideas.

First, a vacation.
A nice little trip around the world

with the wife.

And there's a big convenience store
on Place des Ternes I'd like to buy.

I'd have given my son the rest.

A car accident last year…

Unfortunately,
there're things you can't buy.

Cut. That's
enough. Thank you.

Give me an espresso
with milk, please.

He's got to come
get his 830 million.

- We'll see who it is.
- No.

I don't pay the jackpots.
That's at headquarters.

- On Rue de…
- Rue D'Aguesseau. 8:30am to noon,

14:30 to 16:30.

Remember that. You never know.
One day you might need it.

You again.

I have to talk to your boss.

A Ricard!

I can't tell you who he is.

It's very important.

I'll make it worth your while.

Do you know how hard it is to find
a real private detective?

I'll say… I'll say I found the address
in the phone book.

OK.

You can't do
anything to the boss.

But…

Leave the girl alone, OK?

No. Let's wait
for the liquidation.

I know 200
million isn't nothing!

But remember that I'm somebody.

OK. Let's talk next week.

I told you, René.
The stock market is risky.

You'll lose millions again.

Of new francs, as usual.

It's my job, Hélène.

Yes, but it's my money.

Somewhere in France,

someone has won 830 million

but doesn't want anyone to know.

Look around you.
It could be your neighbor,

a relative, or even
your husband or wife…

JACKPOT PAYMENTS

JACKPOT PAYMENTS

Mr. Demaison.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

Mr. Demaison,
in accordance with your wishes,

your identity will be kept
strictly confidential.

And we honored your request.

830,435,242 francs.

They're all yours.

Do you have something
to carry it in?

Yes, absolutely.

Well then,

these two gentlemen
will escort you home.

That's not necessary.

No one would ever think…

Be careful.

Hey, Grandpa!

Lend me your money and I'll pay you back
next time I see you.

Hurry up or I'll make you bleed!

Let's go!

You can
have it. It's crap.

Check out the little guy.

Oh! That's a
nice leather jacket!

What size are your shoes?

- 41.
- Hurry up! Give me your boots!

So cute!

Get up!

His ass looks just like mine!
Give me your pants.

- Come on!
- Oh, so cute…

You want my dirty laundry too?

He thinks we're stupid.

Forget him.
Let's switch here.

There are often
cops at the next stop.

What did you do this time?

- I got robbed on the subway.
- And what's that?

My dirty uniform.

You have a letter on the table.

As you know, this
week's lottery jackpot

was won by someone in Paris:

830 million francs.

Our reporter at the
lottery headquarters

might just introduce
you to the winner.

No, Michel Bénézit,

I won't introduce you to the winner.
I can tell you

there was only one winner,
which was all the chairman

- would tell me.
- Yes, there was one winner,

but I can't tell
you anything else

except that he just left here
with 830 million

in cash.

- In cash?
- Yes. At his request,

we bent the rules a bit.

We usually pay

by check, but this person asked
me to pay cash.

- That must have been a big stack of bills.
- Yes.

Can you imagine?

Holding 830 million francs in cash
in your hands?

Yeah…

I can imagine it.

…or if a family member
moves into a mansion

on Avenue Foch,

don't jump to the conclusion

that he robbed an armored car
or held up the Bank of France.

What is this all about, Bernard?

Our client is
Mr. Dupré-Granval.

Yes. The young man
seems to be having problems.

But I think he can pay.

We'll see.

Miss, let
Mr. Demaison in.

Normally, I'm not
allowed to talk to you.

- My client is…
- I know.

But maybe you can help me.

Our services are rather costly.

Is that enough to get
you to listen to me?

Have a seat.

Thank you.

So.

I love Dominique Dupré-Granval
and she loves me.

The problem is that her mother,

or stepmother, to be precise,

and Mr. Denoël conspired
to make me look…

like a jerk, an asshole.

So I want you to help me
fix the situation.

Mr. Denoël is supposed
to marry Dominique.

I know.

But she won't.
Dominique will marry me.

Is that it?

On top of your fees and expenses,
there will be 200,000 francs,

or 20 million old francs,

in it for you

if we succeed.

Go on.

VIDEO RECORDER

How's life?

- Good.
- Are you OK, man?

These old things are so heavy.

You know we're working today?

Really?

Are you on strike or what?

The guy who won 830
million in the lottery

- is me.
- Yeah, right.

And the guy who was just named
prime minister

is me.

This

is 2 million.

I have 828 million more at home.

Are you joking?

Dan, we're done with this shit!

We're done busting our asses!

It's over! We're done
working for peanuts!

And I'm also

planning on buying

a majority stake in the club.

Yes. I know they're
having money problems.

And we might

need a DJ, but I
don't know who to pick…

I'm telling you.

You won't find anyone

- better than me!
- Well, if you say so,

you've got the job.

How do you know where I am?

My friend, that's part of the job.
I must be able to reach you at all times.

I just learned that Dominique
suddenly left for Biarritz.

Unfortunately, we are not responsible
for her protection there,

so it may be
best if you tried…

When is the next flight?

The regular flight
times won't work,

so I've organized
your transportation.

It's mine, young
man! I called this taxi.

What's your problem?

People like you take the subway!

Or the bus.

- Mr. Demaison?
- Yes?

Hey, Dan. Don't
leave me all alone.

Come on. I'll
write you a note.

Fashion.

Go on, asshole.

Where are we going?

Le Bourget, sir.
Your plane is waiting.

Hello? Yes,
everything's fine.

You have to talk to Dominique.

She's marrying Mr. Denoël
at the end of the week.

We'll do everything we can here,

but it's up to you.

I understand.

The driver will give you an envelope
with the contacts we've made for you there

and the telephone numbers
where you can reach us.

Good luck.

Thank you.

This is good.

Come on. Here you go.

You have to
gather your strength.

- Isn't that right, driver?
- Certainly, sir.

Cheers!

Would you like a little music?

Music is a
great idea. Isn't it?

Not bad, yes.

- Dan…
- Oh, man.

Oh, darling. We run into each other
all the time but never meet!

- Did you see the driver's look?
- Shut up, asshole.

- Madam.
- Hi.

That's not straight.

Hello.

The butler at the house
is one of our guys.

Dominique arrived last night
and should be staying here

three or four days.
We have a plan

for you to meet her
in the right conditions.

Oh, my God!

It's our contact, the butler.

Dominique is leaving for Paris

after receiving a phone call.

Quick! Follow that plane!

Dominique is marrying Mr. Denoël
at 10:00 tomorrow morning at city hall.

The religious ceremony will take place
at 11:00 at Saint-Honoré-d’Eylau.

But…

We have one last plan,

but its success
will depend on you.

It's over.

Over!

It's her that I want!

I don't care about 830 million!

Calm down!

My colleagues and I have worked
day and night

to come up with one
last plan. Here it is.

This is what we'll use
to play our last card.

Sorry. I don't
understand.

Do you know that the Dupré-Granvals
own a video recorder?

Yes.

- In the living room, connected to the TV.
- Yes.

They also own a black and white
video camera

that they rarely use

but that can be used to film
without artificial lighting.

I still don't understand.

He still doesn't understand.

You know we're still responsible
for protecting Dominique in Paris.

Bernard put
batteries in the camera,

and with this device,

you can remotely operate
the camera and video recorder.

We'll get you into the apartment

and it will be up to you
to get an explanation

out of whoever you run into.

What if it's Dominique?

Unfortunately,
she's not in Paris.

We don't know where she is,

and it's possible

they might be onto us.

OK…

Let's say I get Hélène…

Mrs. Dupré-Granval
or her husband

to say things…

that prove I was set up.

How will that help?

That's the last part of the operation.
One thing at a time!

- Time is running out!
- Yes.

Go home

and stay close to the phone.

The operation is about to begin.

What…

What's going on?

What a disaster!
And Madam isn't here.

Hello?

A leak?

What's the address?

Yes.

OK.

I'll be right there.

Don't worry. I
know where it is.

- Where did you find that number?
- It was by the phone.

And who told you to call?

There was a flood, madam.

I have to replace
the faucet. Excuse me.

Did you imagine yourself,

Laurent Demaison, a plumber,

marrying Dominique,

heiress

to one of France's
largest private banks?

You must have known everything
had to be put in order, Laurent.

That's why the day of the reception,
Thierry and I did what we had to do.

- Yes.
- What you had to do?

- Yes.
- Yes. Come on.

You're not capable.

You're not capable
of fighting us.

Hélène only put her arms
around your neck in the kitchen

so Dominique would surprise you.

And you made sure to send her there
at the right moment?

Exactly.

We can't hide things from you.

You might
call it "a set-up."

We call it "a success."

- A success?
- Yes.

Yes.

That will be
99.45 francs.

Really?

No, keep the change.

And don't try to
see Dominique again.

She doesn't want
to see you anyway.

See you soon.

No, I don't think so.

Ah, Mr. Demaison.

Good timing. We
were just about to write to you.

- Really?
- About your overdraft.

269.24 francs.

If you don't pay it,
your account will be closed.

That's why I'm here.

How much is your deposit?

- 8,110,000 francs.
- Business must be good.

But we no longer use old francs.

So 81,100 francs…

No.

8,110,000 francs.

No, Mr. Demaison.

8,110,000 francs

would make 811 million old francs.
Can you imagine?

Yes, I can.

Do you have the check?

I have cash.

WAITING ROOM

Dominique's bodyguard
is one of the guests.

He'll hit the remote control
at just the right moment.

You will continue the line
of one of the greatest families

in finance, in France

and even Europe.

But never forget this:

money cannot buy happiness.

What's he saying?

He said, "Money
cannot buy happiness."

We'll see about that!

Please stand.

Mr. Thierry Denoël,

do you wish to marry

Dominique Dupré-Granval,

here before you?

Did you really imagine yourself,

Laurent Demaison, a plumber,

marrying Dominique, heiress

to one of the largest private
banks in France?

You should have known, Laurent,

that everything
had to be put back in order.

That's why at the reception,
Thierry and I did what we had to do.

- What you had to do?
- Yes.

You're not capable.

You're not capable
of fighting us.

Hélène only put her arms around your
neck in the kitchen

so that

Dominique could surprise you.

And you sent her in
at the right moment?

Yes. We can't hide
anything from you.

You might
call it "a set-up."

We call it "a success."

Dominique!

Dominique…

This is Dominique Dupré-Granval.

We've decided to get married.

Get married?

Don't worry!
I'll explain.

My God… So
young! So fast!

- What about your job?
- We've thought about it.

I work. I earn a living,
and I'll continue to do so.

But to get married,
you need to be established in life!

- You need money.
- I have it.

With what you earn as a plumber?

I don't think this girl is the type
who will be happy with that.

Don't worry. We'll
manage. I'll work.

We're not the first to start out
without a fortune.

But I have a fortune!

Did you do something stupid?

- You didn't rob a bank, did you?
- I robbed a banker.

Laurent, this is serious.
What's this all about?

Well…

The guy who won 830
million in the lottery

is me.

That's a good one!

How could you
win? You never play!

I played once.

And for my wedding,

I've decided to
give you a present.

Here. The La Rosa house

is yours.

Look!

There.

The little jerk
didn't even tell us!

You're welcome.

You sure knew
what you were doing.

But I didn't know.
I was like you.

Hello?

Who is it?

It's Mrs. Tanieul.

She has a leak in her bathroom
and wants to know what to do.

Tell her to let it run.

DUPRÉ-GRANVAL BANK

Do you know

I'm the laughing stock of Paris?

Dupré-Granval
looks like a clown.

As for your little
movie at city hall…

Make me a copy, will you?

I'm sorry, but I had no choice.

Yes?

Yes.

I told you it's not a problem!

I'll make the
payment as planned!

Yes! You have my word!

The payment is 2 million.
New francs, of course.

But you don't have that,
and you can't borrow it from the bank.

So you played the futures market,
at your own risk.

The supervisory
board won't like that.

How do you know all that?

I'll explain everything.

My honor is trampled in public
on the day of my daughter's wedding,

and in a few days,

I'll be in a financial scandal.
What did I do to God to deserve this?

Nothing.

It's God who will do
something for you.

I don't feel like laughing.

OK, I had a finger in every pie,

but I put money in
everyone's pockets!

They can't just abandon me!

You know they'll
all abandon you.

Except God.

Your God is starting
to get on my nerves.

There's 8,110,000
francs, Mr. Demaison.

811 million old francs.

Yes.

I won the 830
million in the lottery.

I just deposited it in cash.

Why in cash?

I wanted to touch 830 million.

To feel it!

A check is abstract,

but 16,600 500-franc bills

is really something, let me tell you.
I counted them.

But I have a question for you.

How can a banker
have money problems?

- It's the straw.
- 200 million

- for you is not…
- It's the straw

that broke the camel's back.

But now the camel's back

- is repaired.
- I…

May I ask why you…

I don't want my future father-in-law
being talked about in the news.

Can you imagine? "Dupré-Granval,
famous banker, charged with fraud

"and breach of trust?"

Future father-in-law

and charged…

Future father-in-law, yes.

Charged, no.

That's…

And what do you want?

As a deposit, you'll give me
your share of the bank,

of course,

and everyone will be happy.

Mr. Morel?

Oh. You're his secretary?

In his car?

I'm in his car. I
get his secretary,

who says she'll
see if he's there.

They must think
I'm a real idiot.

Well? Oh, good.
He'll call me back?

I'm in my car. You
have my number?

Good.

I can't wait to see his face
when I pay him 200 million francs,

and in cash.

Just to piss him off.

Yes?

No, this is his assistant.

It's Morel.

Hold, please. Mr.
Dupré-Granval is on another line.

We'll teach that one a lesson.

Got him.

My dear Dupré,

it's good to have a
finger in every pie

and even better
to fill everyone's pockets,

but there are days when you also

have to put your foot down.

Put your foot down?

It's amazing.

The lights are perfect.

Dupré, you went
all out, as usual!

Oh, no. It's nothing. It's my pleasure.
And you only get married once.

- What does your son-in-law do?
- He's in… sanitation.

Sanitation. He's
doing very well.

I put a lot of money

into his company.
I'm doing well…

You'd be doing even better
if you started dancing!

"Money can't
buy happiness."

"Lucky at cards,
unlucky in love."

Who said all that nonsense?

He's not bad, that boy.

He won me over.

He won everything.
