French Intrigue

---

Put the girl on the couch.

It's day already.

I'm coming.

That was fast. Topnotch work. Excellent.

You look as if you are worried.

- I got family trouble, the girls.

As soon as they are fledged,

the trouble begins.

Either they build bombs,

or they cry for revolution.

Of all things the son of the mafia boss,

and most of his friends are n*ggers.

I had a visitor recently,

a guy called Carbona.

Carbona knows the business in France.

All the drugs pass France.

Those are excellent Labs

you should get along with them.

That could be interesting.

Carbona will help you.

He is going to be on the same flight

with you tomorrow evening.

I don't want to leave that fast.

I really like you Serge,

but don't forget it was me,

who got you into the Mafia.

You had been the sleazy russian guy for everyone,

the annyoing foreigner.

Nobody wanted to help you.

But you forget we are all

only foreigners here.

So you will take the flight tomorrow.

I did a lot for you already.

I could do a lot more for you.

You mustn't disappoint me.

I trust on you,

you damn russian pig.

Is Paul coming along?

- You don't need him for this job.

The plane to paris is ready.

I repeat:

Last call for flight 1 14 to Paris.

It's going to be tough.

You will do it.

- You never had made it alone.

I'm sick of it.

I got enough of all this.

I only have one wish.

When all this is done,

i want to leave, as far as possible.

From that dough i'll buy a farm.

And there you'll spend your remaining years,

togehter with your wife.

So you think it's not that easy?

- Why shouldnt it?

Above all things i want to go to the south.

Sit in the sun, under palm trees.

You want Coffee, Tea or Milk?

Good, i'll get it for you.

Would you like to drink something?

Good evening, are you busy?

- Not at all.

Do you know France?

- Yes.

When it gets boring someplace, i step on the next plane and off am i.

To New York, to London, and now I want Paris.

I'll just take the next plane and I'm done.

How about you?

I don't want to do anything.

I just travel for fun.

That's not bad.

- Anyway, I'm sick of it all.

Sitting around, the travelling...

- I'm never bored.

Maybe that's because I'm

not very demanding.

And what do you expect?

I like to see new things.

- Are you happy?

Well, I think I am.

Why not?

That's going to be expensive for you.

- M. Carbona, It's not my fault.

Those are Emery's killers,

the two deaf-mutes.

No worries, I'll handle them.

- Where are you going anyway?

Good evening, old friend.

I knew I'd meet you here.

Well.

You still look great.

How are your deaf-mutes?

And how are you?

- Oh, always the same.

You get older. That gets to me.

- I know that. There are days

when I wake up and can hardly

move anymore.

But you pull yourself together anyway.

- You won't be destroyed by cancer.

Have you been to a doctor?

- What would I want with a doctor?

I know that I'm sick

- Don't listen to him.

His constant talking makes

me feel sick all over, too.

But today it isn't as bad

as it used to be.

You suffer, you die...

That's the way it is. What do you want?

You have all that, you have Rita.

You have achieved everything you wanted.

You never were ambitious anyway.

So, everybody likes you.

Everybody respects you.

You are to be envied!

Sure, disregarding the fact that

I don't like your deaf-mutes,

they earn way too much.

- That's none of your business.

Do you hear that, Rita?

He thinks it's none of my business.

And what do you have to say about that?

- I don't think that it can continue like that.

The last word hasn't been spoken yet.

- Too late, that will no longer happen.

You exposed yourself too much.

What have you become?

You are mighty and powerful.

And what do you do?

You fill in checks,

receive the foreign legions cross of merit,

and now even the cops

salute you.

It's long ago that you touched a weapon.

Go die of cancer

and leave me alone.

Aren't you afraid of the Americans?

Don't worry,

i can deal with them.

First i will take care

of the Carbona Family.

Hello?

Is the doctor there?

Jane Swenson. Yes, ok, thank you. I'll wait.

No, stop this. Hang up.

Do what i tell you.

The is a little book in my Jacket.

There it says where you have to call.

You will discover it later.

What i want to show you in the book

is the fact,

that the attitude of the youth towards intoxication

is the same, but not towards oriental culture.

I am definitely also thinking

about the young people

that are going to India, to Nepal.

But they are not looking

for the cultural ideas.

The are looking for the drug, nothing else.

This has to be prohibited,

especially from your side. Thats your job.

That has nothing to do with my job.

I am not speaking as a police officer,

but as a philosopher.

How interesting.

I think you don't have fun drinking.

I am not into entertaining myself.

My wife likes these parties.

She somehow likes these snobs.

It's cold here.

Cold and humid. My rheumatism

immediately acts up.

I used to operate

in the big hospitals.

The hygienic facilities are not

really up to date here.

But you can cope with that.

So what,

first you catch a black eye.

And then you call for me,

and i have to be there.

You know what Flats, Hotels

and Rooms i have seen?

I operated in cellars and

barns.

Once in the middle of a forest.

There she is. It's bleeding hefty.

Some kicked the bucket.

He has slimmed.

The woman like that apparently.

Anyways, if i would see a girl like you

with somebody like him...

Most important that you have fun.

When i see something fragile like you.

Yes. Your eyes, your complexion.

No, you can't fool me.

You are young.

You still have a smooth and firm skin.

But that will decay quickly.

Remember that.

So, you observed how Emery

was refueling?

Yes, M. Bardeche, i lost him in a

traffic jam in Aix.

But i disovered him.

He entered the "Hotel du Roi Rainier".

Since they brought in his luggage,

i assumed that he stayed there over night.

Then he surely entered the bar

and met somebody there, right?

Yes. They had a long conversation actually.

Then he continued his trip to Marseille.

- Thats right.

And there he directly went to the harbour,

dispatching the overseavessels,

so i presumed he wanted to get

a freight deal done there.

But he didn't stay there.

- He went straight to the city hall.

Yes, indeed.

I was quite surprised. - So?

I am not surprised at all.

Slowly i am getting to know him.

I am sure that,

he is having me observed.

He is having me followed.

So put your man on the leash.

For my sake relocate him to Nouma

or whereever.

If that is all, you dont

have to fear a lot.

It will be OK.

- Listen, Edouard,

this M. Bardeche should disappear.

- I understand, i understand completely.

I promise you

that i will take care of that.

Too bad that this man

is not open for reason.

He doesn't respond to financial

propositions at all.

You said it yourself,

this guy is not from this world.
