Action Man Page #4

---

What have you got to say?

You know I like movies.

Who gave you the key?

- Nobody did.

You shouldnt be

such a bully, Denis.

Youd better be nice.

Where are you heading to?

- An association.

What are you? Mad?

What is she doing here?

- Ask her.

I thought you two didnt

know each other.

I did warn you, didnt I?

Now, dont go whining

that you dont have a dime,

because if you want to recoup your

losses, youll have to bet on a horse!

You cant call it off, Denis.

I cant, anyway!

With a broad as a partner?

Sh*t!

We might as well pack a suitcase

and head directly to jail.

You must admit Ive got brains:

I managed to understand it

all by myself.

Its not a question of brains,

its a question of tongue,

you dumb broad.

Four years, rue de Douai,

at Antoine Polettis.

Didnt I hold my tongue?

Without me, more than one bloke

would have taken the plunge.

We havent got a choice, Denis.

Lets give her 10%

and leave it at that.

Look. Im doing this only for you.

As for you,

youre twisting my arm

but I warn you:

one slip and I shoot you.

I give you my word.

And you may well look at him:

were of one mind, he and I.

You dont have to know

anything more.

Youll be safer this way.

Do you understand me?

Do we agree?

Yes, but what about the dough?

When do we get paid?

One half of the split bills now.

The other half,

when the job is done.

Fine by us.

But were broke:

couldnt we get

a small sum in advance?

Were going to give you a little

something for your expenses.

Alright then, its agreed.

- Good for me too.

And now get up.

Examine closely the map before you.

On a day and hour

that well specify later,

youll take the dump truck

and start at point A, in front of

number 40 of the rue Jean Mermoz.

Youll stop in front of the 26,

then youll cross the Place

Aristide Briand and drive to point B.

Still in the rue Jean Mermoz.

This is number 26.

We cant miss it.

This is a strange job,

dont you think?

Two millions, just for this?

I smell a rat.

So what?

Dont try to understand.

I, for one, would even off

a grandmother for two millions.

Look! Our arrival point

is there.

What if it were

a carved up broad?

So what? When youre broke

you cant afford

to be too sensitive, pal.

Alright, if anything goes wrong,

youve got my telephone number:

dont hesitate to call me.

But with that truck,

you wont ever get any problem.

Thanks.

- Have a good ride.

And I would throw all the bombs,

the rifles and the daggers

at the bottom of the oceans.

And war being forever banned,

bliss will ensue

for each and every man.

- Of course it will.

Take advantage of the situation:

go and please him nicely.

Hes broke! Are you mistaking

my bottom for the Salvation Army?

Its closing time, sir.

Just a quick beer,

Im awfully thirsty.

And Id like to buy cigarettes too.

Right but I warn you:

Im off to bed in five minutes.

Are you crazy? This is not

the day to get plastered.

Hey, are you nuts?

Not now:

well need our brains tonight.

Do you have the tank?

- In the garage.

And it wasnt easy.

I was treated to a regular chase.

The bastards are not letting go

and theyll get me in the end.

Yes? Oh, its you.

Worried about what, dear God?

Im keeping my books,

like I do every month.

Nothing strange about it.

No, I promise Ill go home directly,

as soon as Im finished with

"La Chaumire"

Sleep tight, love.

Good night.

Dont walk here:

Ive just polished the floor.

Cant you see

Im wearing espadrilles?

Its even worse.

Listen.

- ... better to do the job properly.

For the wages they pay...

Hey, Im not sorry for you:

youll get double wages in December.

I havent got enough seniority.

Say, where did you work before?

Since I was in Paris,

there was no reduction zone...

This Maurice is a serious guy.

- Did you memorize the code?

Youre car number five.

Jim is number four

and the dump truck

is number six.

If you catch sight of the cops,

theyre car number twelve,

and you tell us

from which way they come.

Yours is a good trick,

but well learn as much with this.

Provided it works.

- Dont worry.

Ive given intravenous shots

every day for six years.

Hey, the teller is coming!

Good morning, Maurice.

- Good morning, mister Goulette.

Its cold outside, isnt it?

Yes, and they said on telly,

it would be colder still tomorrow.

It doesnt bode well for January.

Im going to deal with Gaston.

Here. With this,

you dont need to wear gloves.

Fingerprints are not an issue:

it dries instantly.

You and your witches tricks.

Dont tell me you believe in those.

Of course not:
Im having fun.

Are you in a good mood, old pal?

In a good mood?

I feel twenty years younger tonight.

And to tell you truth:

I dont care about the dough,

Im just interested

in a successful job.

Well, Im interested in the dough.

I didnt ask for your opinion.

Give me Gastons bottle.

Theres enough in it

for him to sleep until noon.

Hes not interested in the dough.

Did you hear that?

I know him:
its true.

Then I dont see why he argued

so much about my ten percent.

A matter of principle.

Here, gulp this down:

its a very good vintage.

Thank you, mister Farrand.

But, you know, I dont really like

to spend a lot of money on wine.

Dont worry about the money:

youll drink this on me tonight.

Well, if its on you,

its not the same thing.

And here, for your kids Christmas.

- Youre too kind, mister Farrand.

Those bastards parked

too close to me.

I cant even move.

Could you give me a hand?

Say, it doesnt look easy.

- Thanks a lot.

Good evening, sir.

Changes again?

I thought Darot

was coming tonight.

No, Darot is doing

the docks now.

Alright, follow me.

Take a seat.

Theres not much to do,

you know.

If the insurance company

didnt insist on a watchman

each time the army comes

for their money,

you wouldnt have to take such pains.

What a useless drag.

You never know.

Car number five, here.

No fare in sight?

Central, here. No clients.

Are you still available,

car number four?

Are you still available

car number four?

Say, let me explain.

Later, when the men

take out the trash

through the service door,

there..

youll go with them

as far as the street.

I know the instructions:

with my gun in hand.

Yeah, well,

thats the regulations.

Hey, Daddy-O, will you

come and dance with us!

You a**holes!

- Stop if you wanna fight!

Shut up, Michel, or well

end up in the police van again.

Come, were going to see Jocelyne.

- Your Jocelyne is a dog!

The youth of today!

In my days, we knew how

to have fun the intelligent way.

Well... I must go and

open my piggy bank!

So? Is it open?

- No, not yet.

But I get nervous when the soldiers

watch over my shoulder.

So I prepare the first two

combinations in advance...

Thanks... and I always

leave the third one on hold.

I only enter it

when the officer comes.

Its less of a bother that way.

And what is this?

- This is the alarm box.

It monitors all

the security system,
