The first skeletons found were a female

and her child chased by a big bear.

The corpse of another female bear

was found on the frozen sea - her cob

managed to escape.

Mommy bear:
"They're monsters. They're

all monsters. You'll see them in the end."

How about making a baby tonight?

At the fourth beep...

...we will be exactly...

...800.725.367

In every child is a future croquet champion.

What is it?

Don't cry like a little boy!

Are you a little boy?

I hate you.

This is a good start.

You'll learn to simulate.

You'll simulate very hard.

You're fourteen years old now,

would you like to

get inseminated artificially?

It's possible.

Contact your supervisors.

Stand up please.

Come closer.

We know you're having hard times,

we're here to help you.

If you got any problem then

you have to tell us about it.

Today we'll do

a practical exercise.

Who will please go inside that bag?

You don't realize it yet,

but this will help you.

Come on, a little effort!

Good! You're very courageous!

Whoever accepts the idea being in that bag

doesn't belong here.

Harder!

It's a game, just a game.

In every game there's a winner and a looser.

So play the game...

and everything will go well.

How do you know that

your mother saw these things?

- She told me

- So it must be true?

Is this what you think?

You'll learn to simulate.

And you'll do your homework.

Go ahead, Lise, pick up!

You've got 20 seconds left,

don't miss the caller.

Hello? Hello?

- Thanks

- See you tomorrow

Take this, Daniel.

Take this metal cylinder in your left hand.

And this handle with a button in your right.

Daniel, whatever happens...

dont release them.

- Alright?

- Ok

With your right hand,

push the button please.

- I'm sorry

- No problem

- We'll start again

- How long should I hold?

The longer - the better.

Very well.

Go ahead, whenever you wish.

Till saturday as agreed?

Yes of course.

I went to the store you recommended,

they were great.

Perfect! You'll see.

The fresh air will do you good.

Nothing like a croquet game

in the countryside with friends

Croquet may be a family game,

but it's physical nevertheless.

See you later Philippe.

See you later Francois.

Smile!

Bravo to Miriam who gave birth

to wonderful twins.

Miriam, you're exemplary for all of us.

Become a woman...

...become a mother.

Become a man...

...become a father.

How about making a baby tonight?

Bernard Bellot handled his club with

virtuosity and proved once again -

Croquet may be a family game,

but it's physical nevertheless.

You know the story of

mommy and baby bear?

No.

Don't leave me that way

Welcome means smiling,

smiling means welcome.

- Say "see you tonight"

- See you tonight

(Sports news about croquet)

Hello Lise!

- How are you?

- Thanks, fine.

- Sorry I made you wait.

- It doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter to make people wait?

Let me relieve you

from your coat.

Have you recovered?

Can we go on?

Well, listen carefully

what I'm asking you:

Press yourself against the wall.

- This one?

- The one you like.

- Standing tight?

- Yes

Fine, now step backwards, Lise.

Step backwards.

Step backwards, more clearly, come on.

Lise, more effort, step backwards please.

Are you stepping backwards now?

No.

Step forwards - step backwards,

you understand?

This test is crucial,

it's important that you pass it.

I'll help you, it's really simple.

Press yourself against the wall...

then - step backwards.

Step backwards, Marc.

No, Lise, again:

you have to stay inside the hoop.

No Lise, without hands!

Hello, please leave a message,

I'll call you back.

It's me.

I can't stand the sound

of your voice any more.

I can't stand you any more.

I hate you for being

incapable of procreating.

It's all your fault,

I hate you for that.

I hate what you have become.

I hate every part of you.

I hate you for what you made out of us.

Look, I step backwards,

pressed against the wall!

I hate every part of you.

Your skimpy coat.

Don't you trust yourself,

or don't you trust me?

- Lise, I asked you a question

- I know but...

- but you refuse to answer.

- yes, I trust you and myself totally

How can you trust

someone you barely know?

I don't know,

feminine intuition I guess.

You're completely stupid.

Your way, your smile...

You just move out of reach

with little steps inside the hoop

Precisely, but until now

nobody found it out.

Am I too hard on you?

A little bit.

Then how long will you keep smiling?

your smell

your love

your touch

your looks

your smile

Let's proceed properly.

Marie?

For your security it is advised

not to park under the nets.

Yes, it's me, I...

See you tonight.

...always the same music.

The old one is out of breath.

Cyril, what a match!

You played very risky.

What matters are the results.

You get juged on your results.

Stop the car.

The use of croquet bats should

be restricted to croquet games.

What's up with your wife?

How she looks at me!

She wants us to take care?

The buffet is yours.

then we'll take care of your wife

What does he want?

He's got a gun!

How long have you

been working with us?

Almost six years.

- Do you like it?

- Yes, a lot

You're doing a good job.

Your way of welcoming...

There have been many studies about this,

nothing's more reassuring

than a paternal smile.

It inspires confidence,

this is very important.

You're doing this very well.

Thanks.

Is it your son or your grandson?

Excuse me?

I wondered who's the owner

of the lasergun?

I found it yesterday.

I don't have grandchildren.

Do you have children?

- No

- Neither do we

We can't have children.

You have to be patient.

It's not about patience...

my housband keeps us

from having children by any means.

In fact, he's terrified

by the idea of having children.

He's the living proof that the system works,

so that no baby survives inside my womb.

Enough!

He's not aware of it...

It's worse. It's deep inside him,

without him knowing.

It works in any case.

A little life starts

to grow inside me,

...weak

letting itself die,

falling off from me.

You know what happens when you fall?

You don't rebounce...

...you crash.

That's how the world is.

Mothers fall out of windows,

children fall out of mothers.

He was so scared that

he considered it a game.

What game are you talking about, Marie?

And tomorrow, what will you do?

You'll continue to play...

...in your nasty manner.

Excuse me, thanks for what you've done.

Excuse me, she forgot her coat.

Let me pay, it's a pleasure.

I've got another request:

Don't tell anyone what happend tonight.

Thanks, goodbye.

It's like you said...

That's exactly how it happens.

It's a game, nothing but a game.

And those afraid to play along

end up like the waiter - in a van.

We just have each other.

That's not enough.

I've nothing else to offer you.

If it's not enough then leave.

That's why he's never hungry,

never cold. Never scared either.

Your mother was crazy.
