Original subtitles

...

-HI!

-I'm Rose. -And me, Samy.

-We want to motivate you to watch the series in the original version.

Really, it's more authentic.

-Subtitles, it's easy to read.

-What? -It's easy to read.

-They do what they want! -Subtitles!

-They are the ones... -Subtitles!

-OK!

-Subtitles, and in original version.

-I was in Jean Monnet's house ...

I don't know how, but I knew it was his house.

He was there, with me.

I told him about the difficulty of

reconnecting citizens with the European project,

of my failures... I talked to him about everything.

I must save Europe.

Surprisingly, in my dream, I confided completely in him.

I don't dress up as a superhero for my ego, I'm not that stupid.

He looked at me, and smiled.

And he told me his famous phrase...

-If I had to do it again, I would start with culture.

And on this subject, I worked on a little something...

A musical comedy.

-Is this the scenario of the musical?

The one that Jean Monnet gave you in your dream?

-No, it's not...

That would be impossible.

This is the musical comedy that inspired me by this dream with Jean Monnet.

-Ah.

-We will have to finance the project, but above all, it must make an impression.

You have to do this well.

The future of the European project is at stake!

This could be the Hamilton of Europe.

-(Is he really a deputy?) -(I don't know, it's on the schedule.)

-I wanted to bury them, these new accounting standards.

I had planned to bury these new accounting standards.

Well yes, I wanted to bury them.

Okay, that’s fine!

Hello?

Christian?

-Sorry, I dozed off. -Eyes open?

-I learned this at the Council, the

Dutch Prime Minister showed it to me. Funny guy.

So, perfidious Albion, eh? -Yes.

I don't know how this story... -Unless they ally with

Russia or the United States, the chancellor is confident.

We will occupy London in a month.

This time it's the right one.

Just kidding!

Seriously,

this mess embarrasses President .

Your accounting story has taken on disproportionate proportions.

-We were trying to bury this... -Impossible.

-That is to say?

-Now that the English have launched into these provocations,

we can no longer renounce a paragraph of the Blue Deal.

We would seem to give in to threats.

-But what do I do with the Greeks? -The Greeks?

-They are the ones who asked us to eliminate

accounting standards, in exchange for their

participation in my project of zero carbon container ship.

-We really want it, to this container ship?

-We care a lot about it. It justifies my presence here

and the confidence of the President of the Republic in my mandate.

-Is this a threat?

-A clarification.

-OK. I take care of the Greeks.

We will give them a seat at

the Central Bank, that will appease them.

-Is that all?

We could have done this from the start. -"Is that all?" She is funny !

And who is going to trick the Dutch and

the Austrians into making them digest this?

And the journalists from “Bild” who won't give up on us,

will I pass them on to you? -Thank you for your support.

-Good evening. -It's 11am.

-I know.

-Mr. Kraft! I have something that may interest you!

-No time!

-Socialists support Specklin. -I know, I negotiated the deal.

-There is a condition to their support.

-Really? -Yes, let Specklin replace you.

They will meet today to negotiate the terms.

-Michel has no appointments planned today.

-He may have deliberately not written it down.

-And how did you obtain this information?

-Socialists like

to confide in me.

They spend their time defending minorities,

but as they are privileged, they have very few

racialized friends and I allows them to be credible:

I am their right-wing black friend, in addition to being a woman.

And they don't know if I'm straight, so everything remains possible.

In short: jackpot.

-Charming.

But... where is Michel?

-It's war, Martin.

-Michel!

-Martin, it's war there. -Is he outside or what?

-Martin, it's war there! -Bertrand, where is Michel?

-Martin, it's war!

England,

Scotland, Wales, the whole of

the United Kingdom... -Michel,

where is he? -Michel went to play.

-What?

-Has something real, but also virtual.

I didn't understand anything. -Good, Bertrand! Where is Michael?

Physically, where is he? -In the hemicycle.

-But he has nothing on the agenda!

-The agenda? It's war, Martin!

-Damn...

-They're looking for you! -Who?

-You are responsible for the war, you need to hide!

-There's no war there. -Like in kyiv in February 2022?

Move!

You go into hiding while things calm down.

-Sharky!

-I can hide you at home.

For the money, we'll see. -Money?

-I take risks! Then you have a little money.

-No. Finally, a little... -How much?

-Um I...

Are you scamming me? -What? I... No...

-No one is looking for me.

-But yes, everyone! -Who?

-Well I came across uh...

-OK.

-I'll be right there!

-(Wait!) -I'm coming!

-I'm looking for Mr. Kantor.

-Samy? He's there. I don't want any problems.

-Samy?

-Yes. There it is, it's fixed, I...

Hello, Carmen.

-Valentine wants to see you.

-Hello! Good morning !

Hello!

Oh! The hemicycle!

Ah yes, you have to vote.

Well yes, there you go.

Okay...

Your thing is a bit boring. Don't you have another game?

Like the funny rabbit thing. Don't you have this?

Hey there...

-The first eight floors are allocated to the administration.

The commissioners are above.

The presidential office occupies the top floor.

-Oh yes?

-The architectural metaphor is quite literal.

-Yes, yes... You surprise me.

You surprise me.

-The Commission is a Weberian bureaucracy

based on 4 principles: clear hierarchical

structure, division of work by areas of

expertise, a body of detailed rules, and

impersonal relationships: function takes precedence over personality.

The commissioners meet once a week on major files.

Of course, this meeting is marked by their cabinet directors,

who have their weekly meeting on Monday, the "special leader".

This meeting is itself bordered by

that of the cabinet members in charge of the

subject, itself cleared thanks to the

meetings coordination between general directorates.

-Ah yes...

-There it is, it's here.

-Is it here?

Of what? -Your desktop.

-Okay...

Where is Miguel?

He's going to come out of the dresser to make fun of me?

Miguel?

Why do I have an office here?

-Ms. Cantel was very

impressed by your maneuver

yellow>with the English. -My maneuver?

-To save the Blue Deal.

-Yes.

That one, yeah.

-So she wants for you to join the team.

And she asked me to

introduce you to the place and your office.

-Okay.

It's crazy...

And she couldn't tell me herself?

-Commissioner is very busy.

-Yes...

Me too, I am... -So, are we getting our bearings?

Do you like it? -Well yeah, it's not bad!

-It's good to have you with us! -Serious!

-There, I have a video with the Americans for the next COP.

What are you doing tonight?

-I... -Are you coming to see me?

We will debrief on the application of the new accounting standards.

I'm counting on you! -Yes, you can.

-Hello. -You can close it, thank you.

(Psychopath!)

-Welcome, Samy.

-Thank you, Carmen.

My maneuver...

-I'm going to the gym.

See you later! -Don't forget your towel.

-I have it.

-Of course.

It's okay.

This time, don't forget the potatoes!

-Hello, Martin.

-Aren't you into sports?

-Sports?

-Thank you, it will be a pleasure to work with you.

-It's shared.

Oh, Martin!

You're in luck...

We need to talk.

-Eamon?

-Samy.

The Blue Deal is saved, then? -Yeah.

-Congratulations. -Thank you.

I was offered a position at the Commission there.

In the office.

For real, really!

With my office and...

-I repeat, but

congratulations, again.

-But... I don't know if the Commission is for me.

It's very serious, really.

Here too, it is, but there is a kind of madness...

-There you will have power, but

your power will be constrained by matter.

Here, you

have few, but he is free.

-Yes, that's it.

Do you think I should accept?

-This is something I can't help you with.

-Ah yes... It's outside of your prerogatives, is it?

-Above all, I think your decision has already been made, Samy.

-Why do you say that?

-Because you are nostalgic.

We can only be nostalgic for what we have lost.

You are a true believer, Samy.

But joining the Commission, is taking one more step.

It's getting into the orders.

You heard the call.

It is up to you not to forget yourself in the role.

Try not to let the Parliament within you disappear.

-The socialists came to see

me and offered me to remain president.

Provided you are replaced... by a Spaniard.

Tapas, it's neither done nor to be done!

Then their cheese... Much too salty!

Finally... That's Europe too.

-But Michel... -They didn't want to hear anything.

It was you or me.

So I told them that it would be you.

-You told them...

Michel?

Michel!

-Martin! Michel asked me to come here.

He had something to announce. Do you know what it is?

-Eamon, why don't you come with me to the Commission?

Let's go together! We do a team, we will be unstoppable!

We will be determined, as Jean Monnet said!

-What do you say? -Jean Monnet

also said: "Institutions can, if

they are well constructed, "transmit and

accumulate "the wisdom of successive generations."

My place is no longer with you. Other missions await me here.

-Sorry, but I have a commission

in 20 min, I have to understand

the difference between directive and regulation.

Otherwise, it will be complicated.

-A regulation is of direct application,

adopted by the EU, applicable to all, while a

directive requires a transposition law by national parliaments.

-Wait, I...

"Directive, "transposition

law by national parliaments."

-Thank you.

Okay...

Well...

-Goodbye. -Well yes. Hi.

-Eamon?

-Hm?

-The Langres.

It's a delicious cheese that comes from Haute-Marne.

It is made from cow's milk,

with soft dough and washed rind.

-Hm...

Hm...

Hm!

Ah yes! It’s still very different from Mont d’Or!

-The two have nothing to do with each other. The Mont d'Or comes from the Jura.

-Do you believe in the European project, dearest Zeyneb?

-Oh!

-Hm...

-Okay...

Now we move on to the trickiest part: the cheeses

from the North!

The...

maroilles.

-The meeting on the automotive industry is about to begin.

-It's okay!

They can wait! We're not in the parts business!

-"We're not in parts." -Huh?

"We're not in parts." -We are not in parts.

-Michel? -Yes!

Sorry for the outfit, but as I'm no longer

president, I decided to take up sport seriously.

-Oh, Michel...

-I know it was weird. I had no underwear

and everyone was looking at me in class.

-Are you really asking me what that could mean?

Because it seems obvious to me.

-The teacher, it was actually Valentine, and

she was talking about something that I didn't understand...

-This is the definition of an awkward dream.

-It was awkward, because everyone was looking at my...

Well, you know... -We will never go on vacation.

-Yes, but not in the next 3 years.

-Unless Valentine renews his mandate. There it will be in 8 years.

-8 years is not... We can go away on weekends!

What?

-You look terribly sexy in this outfit, you know?

-It must be the attraction of power, in my opinion.

-Do you think that's it? -No doubt.

-Damn, it's Valentine... -Magda is trying to contact me.

-Valentine? -Hi.

-Yes, I'm here. -No, I'm not going on vacation anymore.

-I'm here, really. -Yes, good idea.

-I'm in the hall. -I'm available whenever you want.

-Samy, are you coming?

-Have you seen the musical? He's a friend who...

-What a shame! I never saw that ! No respect for the institution!

-Yes, that's clear.

-Your tie is original.

-Oh yes?

-Okay, shall we go?

-Here we go! It left my Kiki !
