What did the cardiologist say?

It was nothing. You were mistaken.

Great! Thats good news.

So did the shoe salesman say why?

May I have a coffee?

Im going to the toilet.

Im waiting...

for the attendant to come back.

So she sees me

put money in the dish.

Thanks.

7th month

I just thought of something.

What, Mr Dhrey?

- Its rather dumb.

- Go on.

I just thought, if I were a doctor,

Id call myself Dr Dre.

Dr Dre, like the rapper.

Of course, you wouldnt get it.

Youd need some kind of contact

with young people to get it.

Not just foetal matter.

Theyre called babies.

Living beings, not matter.

So a living being isnt matter?

Sorry.

A pressing urge.

Wheres my handbag?

- Watch! Like this...

- Yes.

- But you lift your head.

- Me?

Not at all. It went straight!

Shes here. Shes arrived.

Hang on...

What an effort!

Its just going to get

harder and harder.

Ju?

Ju, we wanted to talk to you.

Wheres the fridge?

Isnt it funny?

Sweetie...

You have to go.

Because of the fridge?

Ill bring it back. Its just that...

A tramps minding it.

I didnt wake you.

A tramp?

What tramp?

Did you bring him here?

What would a tramp do

with a fridge?

Hes got nowhere to plug it in.

No, but he could sell it, Justine!

- Right.

- Its a good brand.

If he does well,

he could get 300 euros.

We have to start renovating the flat

before the child arrives.

We have to be ready, understand?

I understand, dont worry.

Maybe she could stay

a little longer.

- As shes bringing the fridge back.

- No, no, no!

Three kids in the house?

No way! Its impossible.

Suzanne?

- Suzanne!

- What?

- Have you seen my yarmulke?

- Your what?

From my bar mitzvah.

I wasnt born

when you had your bar mitzvah!

Thatll do.

Cecilia?

Hey, Cecilia!

Well get fired because of you.

We never go out anymore.

We just do your dumb X-rays!

Youre the dumb one.

A pigs valve, you say?

- Yes, Rabbi Youchnevski.

- Youchnovski!

Roger Rabbit.

Sorry.

And whos he?

Atom, Rabbi.

Hes accompanying me.

Atom? So hes not Jewish.

- Yes, he is, Rabbi.

- No, Im Armenian.

- Armenians arent Jewish?

- Mostly not.

With respect, Armenians are Jews.

But Catholic.

- Catholic Jews?

- Yes, Catholic Jews, Rabbi.

Orthodox.

Theyre a diaspora,

have their genocide,

they even look like us

and are good at business.

An Orthodox comedian.

How Jewish is that, Rabbi?

Stop calling me Rabbi.

Its annoying.

Sorry. What should I call you?

Dont call me anything.

Thats even better.

As for our problem...

Jews believe that, above all,

what matters most is to preserve life.

So you may have your operation,

Eli Dhrey.

- Without risk?

- There may be risk.

- I knew it!

- Theres risk in any operation.

Any five-year-old knows that.

Well, thanks. Thank you.

Here. Each of you take one.

For the holidays.

Thank you.

Goodbye.

Shall we?

Rabbi warrens...

A dose of rabbis...

Saudi A-rabbi-a...

A- aabbi-ca coffee...

Ca-rabbi-neri...

Par-rabbi-osis...

Thats two artificially joined embryos.

They breed like rabbis...

Penne A-rabbi-ata...

Very good!

- Senhor Rabbi-rez...

- Meaning?

- Like the Portuguese.

- No proper names!

15 June 1987.

My Ju, its 3 p.m. here,

9 a.m. where you are

so youll be asleep.

I miss you. I love you.

My heart is with you. Your Daddy.

25 August 1986.

Here everyones in weird costumes...

Eli, why didnt you send them?

- Hello.

- Hello.

- What do you do, Kirsten?

- Gallery work.

- You swab decks?

- Not galley work.

- I have a gallery.

- An art gallery?

Dont move.

- So?

- The lumps gone. Youre cured.

You can sleep soundly.

Thank you, Doctor.

- Im really happy for you.

- Thanks, Justine.

Shall we celebrate?

Lets have a girls night out.

Girls night out?

Yes. Why not?

You only live once!

See you later.

Here, you fool!

- Im going to see a star?

- Atoms no star.

Yes, he is!

That calls for a dance.

No, no dancing!

Oh, no...

No! Please, dont...

Listen, dont embarrass me.

Were going with Kirsten.

- Who?

- Kirsten.

- The chick with cancer?

- With a gallery.

So I asked myself, whod be

the coolest dad in France for a teen?

Johnny Hallyday!

On your seventh birthday

you ask for a tattoo, hes thrilled!

As if you said

you wanted to be a doctor.

Wow, good thing I told that one!

- Youre keen on Atom!

- No, hes just funny.

And excuses for not attending school

are weird.

I had to mind my fathers wolf.

Actually, I like him a lot.

Sh*t, she hasnt let loose since 87!

Hold on...

Kirsten!

She X-rays people

in all different sizes.

- What are you saying?

- Relax!

- You really do X-ray art?

- She does!

Best thing since the Mona Lisa!

- Here!

- Whats that?

- Cosmopolitans.

- I love them!

What do you think?

Its very beautiful.

I must be dreaming!

Justine...

Justine!

Im still an asset to the team.

Im still... Miss Diagnosis?

Sorry, Justine,

I really have to let you go.

Surely you cant do things like that,

X- raying for dubious artistic reasons.

Its supposed to be medical.

What will I do now?

30-Love.

Alex and Mathias

will have the business.

Im going to slow down.

Really?

Its time they were independent.

And time I enjoyed life.

- Youre good at that.

- All the more reason.

And how are you?

I found myself a girl.

Believe it or not, its Cecilia.

Know who I mean?

Cecilia from the clinic?

How did that happen?

- She came with Justine.

- Justine came?

You didnt say anything!

About the operation?

No, Eli.

I dont meddle in your affairs.

So you havent told her?

- You have to tell her.

- Yeah, I know.

Ill tell her.

Look, its my new guy!

Look, its us!

And thats my father.

Yeah.

If I die, I want you to remarry.

Stop being dramatic.

No ones going to die.

The cardiologist said no risk.

Youll be good as new.

- Full of pork! God will punish me.

- Youre not a believer.

In the end,

you renegotiate your beliefs.

- Nonsense.

- Promise youll remarry.

Youre still young.

I want the baby to have a father.

Okay.

- You promise?

- I promise.

I die and you remarry, just like that!

But you said

its for the good of the baby.

You wont play the weeping widow?

- I will, a little.

- I will, a little!

Just my luck!

Not only dead and buried

but also a cuckold!

Atom!

What are you doing with my father?

We talk.

- We play golf.

- You talk?

- You and he talk?

- Yes.

So? Im not the only one.

Mathias does too, I think.

And Alex.

Alex?

I was with Alex when I was 16.

Well, he likes him.

- So he hired them.

- What?

They work together?

Mathias and Alex? Yes.

Thats why I cant go to his office.

I thought he had whores!

In fact, youre the whores.

Actually, at first I did it to bug you.

Its no big deal.

You treat me like sh*t,

piss off without a word...

If I want to see your father, I will.

I dont need your permission.

And your dads cool. Hes funny.

He knows stuff, hes had experiences.

Yeah.

If I were you, Id talk to him.

We have to take the first step,

us children.

You know what?
