restaurant in NDG. It was a little thing.

I was just curious why you never mentioned it

- I don't know

It was referendum night

Victor was around

- Yes, Victor is always around these days. Isn't he?

- Guess so

- How are things going between you guys?

- What's that supposed to mean?

- Oh, give me a f***ing break, Louise

- I don't know what you're talking about

- Fine

- Can I have another?

- Only if it's a road rock and I'm done

What the f*** are you doing, Victor?

- Oh, good morning

Madame Gauthier said it was OK

- I just thought it was a bit ridiculous

not to have it in this day and age

Regardless of whether

you're living here or not.

But, you are living here so

it's even more ridiculous

- What?

-It's a ramp.

For wheelchairs.

Hey Spencer

I'm sorry bud.

I clearly should have asked you first.

I guess I thought it

might be a nice surprise...

for Christmas.

I shouldn't have done it.

I didn't think it would piss you off

- Oh, no. You didn't piss me off.

No, I'm gonna make you some coffee

- Hello, beautiful

At one point, enough is enough, eh?

She's been calling every day.

- Yeah, me too.

- What, guys?

Are you hungry?

- So, have you called her back?

- No, not yet. I mean...

Ok - I get it!

I mean, I just don't have

anything to say to her.

- OK, happy holidays Miss Van Ilen.

- Alright then, Spencer.

You as well.

You, young man are a candidate for sainthood

- Oh, me? Hardly, hardly.

I just like to do stuff with my hands

- Merry Christmas

- Merry Christmas to you too

She's so nice

- I hate her

So, do you think you might come to my Christmas party?

- I'm not so much for parties, man

- Well, this is going to be super chill. It's just

going to be my brother driving in from Ottawa.

- Victor, I'm really really not interested

in going to a party. Any party.

No matter how chill

- Oh, OK, I just thought...

- I can imagine what you thought. But I'm gonna pass.

Louise will be so disappointed

- Hi

- Here.

Oh, wow - Thank you. Come on in.

Louise, that's my brother Jonah.

Jonah, this would be Louise.

- Hey, the famous Louise. Nice to meet you.

This is Jrme.

- Who wants a drink?

- Me

Did you want to drink this stuff?

Uh, no. I'll just have a vodka...

- Oh, a drink-drink

Alright, done.

- Did you just... I'm sorry

- No, no, no, I'm sorry. Go ahead please...

- No, it's ok. Mine was stupid. You go.

I have to pee anyway

- So?

- So what?

- What do you think of her?

- Louise?

- Of course, Louise.

- I haven't gotten a chance to talk to her.

- She's so awesome

- Yeah, she seems great, man.

She seems good.

- We're engaged

- You... oh, sh*t.

Congratulations.

- Yeah, we're not telling anyone yet.

She wants to wait till Spring.

It's more romantic

- Yeah, yeah, sure.

- Victor...

- Oh my God, I almost completely forgot...

Louise

I have a surprise for you

- Oh, I'm sorry.

- It's OK

- One more second

- OK, Victor...

- Trust me, trust me

Louise

Meet Balthazar

He was my cat over in China

So, I had to wait for him to go through all the

quarantine procedures. They do

all that stuff in Ottawa.

That's kind of weird, eh?

So, my brother just brought him in.

He's great, eh?

- He's perfect

- What are you doing?

- Up the fire escape to the first floor...?

- Yeah

- Are you serious?

What time?

- I don't know, Victor. Like

three or four in the morning

- Cause, the first floor is Spencer's apartment

Are you sure that's what you saw?

- Yeah, I'm sure

- It just doesn't make any sense

- Why not?

- Cause Spencer is in a wheelchair.

Like...

were you wearing your glasses?

- Yeah, I'm lying. That's why.

- I didn't say that

- I'm always wearing my glasses!

- Give it a rest guys.

Come on guys, please?

- Hey

- Am I too early?

- No, no, no. Everyone's up. Come in.

- Good

- Uhm, eggs are getting cold

- Coming

- Hello?

- Hey man, it's Victor

- Yeah?

- Merry Christmas

- Merry Christmas, man

- You guys have twenty seconds

- So, uh, Merry Christmas...or whatever

- Bye

- Spencer?

- Yep?

- Have you seen my cats?

- Nope

- I mean like, today... like, this morning.

- No

- OK, thanks.

- Madame Gauthier

- If I don't take them down now, they

will be hanging all year. I just know it.

- You haven't seen my cats, have you?

- Uhm, no, not today

- You guys...

- What happened?

- Don't look, don't look

Are you joking? Of course it was

her. She f***ing hated those cats

- Well, we don't that

they were poisoned

Yes we do Victor! They didn't

have simultaneous heart attacks

OK, well, we don't know

that it was Valrie

- Yes, we do

- We have to do something.

We can't just leave the cats lying in the snow and we

can't just pick them up and dump them in the garbage

- Well obviously not, Victor. Jesus Christ

- Well what Jesus Christ? People do that

- Louise isn't people

- I know that

Louise,

what would you like to do?

- I wanna bury them.

Under Valrie's window

- Hi there

- I need to see him

- Is this another murder?

- Yeah, a few days ago. Didn't you read about it?

- No

- Salut, Nathalie

- Hi Victor

- Ready to go?

- Yeah

- Yeah, so, I told Madame Gauthier,

I said:

"how can we let Balthazar out

when we know for a fact that there's

a cat killer in our building?"

We already lost Mozart and we lost Tia Maria.

And that Valrie woman is so insane

Boy, it's cold

Are you sure? I mean, I bought lamb.

I thought that was your favorite?

- It is, I just need to take a bath and I need some quiet time...

OK:

Are you sure, you don't just want

to come up and see Balthazar?

- Do you think it would be OK

if he spent the night with me?

- I know we haven't known each other very long

But when I met you I felt

a connection I couldn't explain,

so...

I know we haven't known

each other very long.

But like, I feel this connection

to you that I can't explain.

Well, f***ing try to it explain it, a**hole.

I know we haven't known each other very long.

But it's like,

I feel this connection to you.

And I can't really explain it.

And I look at you and I,

see that maybe you feel it too.

- OK, so here's what's on

the list I am making.

Tell me if I'm forgetting something, OK?

First, I need a straight razor

Second, plastic gloves

Third, well...

I need something to rape her with

And then I guess I need sperm...

You know, to make it seem real

- One second

- OK

- I will just take care of this

- Yeah

I just have to go down to my place for a second.

Don't look at me like that

Have you seen that?

- Yeah, you're right.

There's a lot more detail there

- Do you think he kills them while

he's raping them or after?

or before even?

- I don't know

- I bet before

- Why do you think you're so interested in all this stuff?

- Why do I think?

- Yeah

- That's such a prick question

You'd never ask a guy that question.

Actually, you probably would.

I don't know, Spencer.

I'm a voyeur and it turns me on.

I'm numb and it makes me feel alive.

Who cares?
