- A woman?

- Yes yes.

You're watched. I left.

Do you remember me?

Meet me at 9 pm,

Quai de la Charente, "Chez Jeanne. "

You'll be followed. Come alone.

Good evening.

So, do you remember me, Mr. Thomas?

- Vaguely.

- Vaguely? Eve.

There is a bottle there,

help yourself. And help me.

Jrme.

It's empty.

There's another one in the sink.

I was very early.

- Have you being followed?

- Yes.

- Not so far, I hope?

- Not so far.

My husband has you followed.

He thinks I love you, he wants

to know if I still see you.

He is jealous, poor fool.

Who did you expect to see

in this room tonight?

A woman.

Perhaps a man

certainly not an elephant.

Unless he dictated the letter.

Sit on the floor,

it tires me up to look up.

Hugo may have reasons to be jealous.

Can I touch?

Tell me about Paula.

Don't expect me to talk about

that b*tch.

My glass is empty.

I need you.

You don't know who she was.

What was life between

the two of them, she and Hugo.

Hugo is someone scaring, you know.

You have to help me.

Keep it for me at home.

I'll come and get it...

I don't know. When I can.

It's money that I managed to...

to get.

I can't tell you more.

I didn't come for nothing.

Is that all?

Let's go.

Did they hurt you?

Why did you want to see

this boy again?

Such a long time since I saw you!

I missed you so much.

My little girl.

Where were you, tell me,

and what did you do during those days?

Shut up, I hate you.

- I hate you.

- Shut up.

When I heard what you did,

I wanted to die.

Then I wanted to kill you.

Then I wanted to go to the police

and tell them,

you think I'm dead, here I am.

Weren't you afraid that I'd do it.

No.

Who was in the car, Hugo?

Do not clutter your head

with these trifles.

Your closets are filled

with new things.

And not ugly, I think.

Were you her lover?

Don't start at once. Not now.

Why did you leave Eve in Biarritz?

Why did you run away?

Why? Why?

Why is it you want to breathe when

you've been under water for a long time?

Because you're suffocating.

In Biarritz, I couldn't even

open the windows.

When I read the newspapers,

I understood.

Why you'd shut me up there.

Why I should disappear.

And what have you done since you

left Biarritz?

I subscribed to a library.

And I've read all the novels you

forbade me to read

because you were afraid

I'd fall in love with the hero.

I saw films too, with all these actors

you prevented me from seeing.

I talked to people in the street.

I breathed, Hugo.

I can never live again

without breathing, never.

I don't want to be a flower-woman

or a fruit-woman.

- I want...

- What?

I don't know.

I filed an application for divorce.

As soon as I get the money, we

leave, you and me, to Mexico.

To the seaside, you love sea and sun.

Until we leave you'll stay hidden.

But there...

There?

There, as you're believed to be dead,

I can marry you.

My darling little girl.

I'll make children with you,

my love, they'll look like you.

I can't live without you.

I won't allow you to live without me.

Leave me alone.

Leave me alone.

Shut up.

Are you still here?

Have I scared you?

You're always scaring me.

Sometimes I feel like

you're going to kill me.

That's what you like, huh?

Little saint.

Yes.

- What time is it?

- Does it matter?

It does matter since I want to know.

My watch is in my room.

I'll call the speaking clock.

Odon...

Yes? Hello?

He didn't understand a thing, call.

You make me do what you want,

lovely lady, even nonsense.

The smile that passed

quickly on your lips...

what was that for?

For whom?

For him?

Yes?

Mr. Thomas, do you take him?

Yes?

Hello?

Hello?

It's gay at your place, daddy Mik-eli.

There is mus-ik.

It is 4 am, Mr. Thomas.

Did you like the game, daddy Mik?

You're drunk.

Goodnight Mr. Thomas.

I don't know how he knows it,

but he knows you're here,

little fool.

Paula, get dressed.

Bambi, take her bags

and accompany her to her room.

Do you want me to unpack

your clothes?

I don't care.

What are you waiting for?

Go and turn on the heater, idiot.

Bambi, open.

And he tells us

he has money troubles.

Saint-Laurent.

Courrges.

Saint-Laurent.

And that's new as well.

Let me see, I'll try it on. Bambi...

Very nice.

No wonder that her father loves her.

You'll hold her, my Bambi.

Don't touch me!

Hold her tight, I know you enjoy it.

You've been waiting for it

for a long time, haven't you, Bambi?

And I've been longing for

something else, my dear little Paula.

You know you're a little slut,

little slut.

You're drunk.

You won't have Hugo, can you hear me,

I won't divorce.

- Can you hear me, little pervert?

- Yes, I do.

My dear, I don't care

you divorce or not.

Hugo loved me the day I came,

and do you know why he married you?

To make me miserable,

and he succeeded in it,

I gave in to him,

I became his mistress.

He used you, that was your only use.

But now I want to go away, to be

free, Hugo prevents me from living.

So keep him, if you can.

Bambi, do you want her? Take her.

It's an order, sweetie.

Come on.

Where are you going?

You know what Mr. Micheli

would do to me if I obey you?

Get out of here, coward, noodle.

And tell Marc I go back to Paris.

Nice tires, I had not noticed.

Yes, the old ones were really old.

So he just changed his tires and he is

risking a bullet in the head

because he has a crush on a girl.

Come on, for old comrade Dimitri,

give great pleasure, give up.

Maybe da and maybe niet.

Thomas, you're expected,

here he is, gentlemen.

- Inspector Dermot, Inspector Berlier.

- Inspector Dermot, Inspector Berlier.

Mr. Thomas, please, follow us?

- Where to?

- To your place.

- Splendid, I know the way.

- No, you're coming with us, Mr. Thomas.

- Sit down.

- Thanks.

If you're looking for something

to drink, it's in the kitchen.

- If not, tell me what it is.

- Money, lots of money.

Then, this is the wrong Jrme

or Thomas.

What about that?

Being accused of blackmailing

isn't funny, Mr. Thomas.

I think it is, Mr. Superintendent.

Come.

Look at him, darling,

tell us if it's him.

It's him.

Look at him, Madam, is it really him

who extorted you that money?

Yes.

He knew things that I didn't want

my husband to know.

Sorry again.

And he blackmailed you, little fool?

Now you know you can tell me

everything, darling.

Your turn, Mr. Thomas,

what do have to say?

Nothing, I wasn't listening.

Eve, you are lovely in black.

Hello Mr. Micheli.

Do you know Mr. Micheli?

Do I know you Mr. Micheli?

- Not that I know of, sir?

- Thomas.

Jrme Thomas.

Mr. Thomas, the director of

your newspaper got from my superiors

your bail.

The investigation will go on,

needless to remind you

that you have to stay at our disposal

and do not leave Paris

under any circumstances.

I do everything you want,

I've always done it,

don't you wonder why?

The important thing is

that you do it.

Because I love you, Hugo.

- Do you hear?
