Good bye. Good evening.

- Good evening.

- Good evening., Madame

- Good evening.

- Good evening.

- Madame?

- Yes?

Are you moving away from here?

And what is the point of your question?

Eve?

Eve?

Ah! You are here?

I need to get something from town & wanted

to ask you kindly to keep an eye on Paul.

What were you doing in Thomas' room?

Nothing. I just...

My tablet is not working at all.

And I wanted to look on dad's laptop to see

how I could fix it. But it didnt work.

- He's got a new code.

- What?

Nothing. It's too complicated.

I see. Well, you can ask

him when he gets back.

Are you going to stay here?

I won't take a lot of time.

He's asleep anyway.

Sure. I'll go and sit with him in his room.

No worries.

Thanks.

Shall I get you anything?

I'm going to the supermarket as well.

No. Thanks. I don't need anything.

Excuse me, Madame.

Well you go right to the main course or..

- Or you'll take a little break?

- Good question.

No, do it. It's too hot.

People will not stay here for a long time.

Sure. Very good, Madame.

Are you all right, dad?

Do you feel OK?

I feel very good.

Perfectly good.

Excuse me.

Sorry to trouble you about it right now.

We have to head off

straight after the meal,

- So I have to talk to you right now.

- Yes. What is it?

Could you lend me your babysitter tomorrow?

Because mine has gone home and won't

be back for another15 days..

And our stand-by has a bad cold.

You know how it is.

Yes. It should be possible.

Tomorrow, I'll... Hold on...

Yes, fine. But just tomorrow,

because the day after..

Excuse me, mum.

I'm truly sorry I'm so late.

But first I had to get changed

for the festive occasion!

I hope I'm presentable enough!

No doubt your official speeches were

amazing, and I sorely regret I missed them.

Pierre!

But to make up for that mistake..

And above all, to make you happy,

- Who's the one speaking?

- I have brought along some extra guests..

who'd be pleased to join your..

Your engagement party.

Please excuse me, ladies and gentlemen..

It's OK, Thomas, you can sit still.

I want everyone to pay attention to me..

By the time the main dish is server,

everything would be finished.

This wouldn't take a long time.

May I introduce my new friends, please?

- What are you doing?

- Go back, please.

Well, this is Mohammed. He's from Nigeria.

His wife and two kind

- burnt to death in an attack of Boku Haram.

- Will you get me out of here, love?

He took a year to get here.

And now he's been trekking out of the

jungle to the tunnel every day for months,

in the hope of finally getting a ride.

He hasn't lost hope yet.

You know, hope is the last one dies.

Youssouf!

So this is Youssouf,

Without a lot of words, he..

- Listen to me!

- Good day, mum!

Come on!

Come on. Here. Come on!

Stop it!

I'm sorry, but what else could I do?

Come. Let's go.

Ladies and gentlemen..

I apologize.. I'm very sorry you

had to witness this terrible scene,

My soon has problems,

He's having medical treatment.

He can't be blamed, anyway.

But my son is a good person..

I am really..

So dreadfully sorry.

So, please do take your seats..

For the sake of our longstanding

friendship. Please do sit down.

There.

Go further.

You can go now

Dad!
