Jaloux Page #3

Synopsis: Thomas and Marianne, a feuding couple whose relationship has hit a wall, decide to spend a weekend at Thomas' uncle's lakeside cottage. This is their last chance to save their relationship, which has been jeopardized by Marianne's meaningless flirtations and Thomas' uncontrollable jealousy. As they arrive, a restless yet charming neighbor welcomes them into their house and, realizing that Thomas' uncle and girlfriend will not be showing up for days, suggests they share the dinner he has prepared. The drunken night that follows - with this man, who might not be who he seems to be, pushing his charms on Marianne - leads to a weekend of blurred emotions and events, where loyalties, guilt and a shared secret will test the young couple's ability to survive.

I didn't find it.

I can show you if you want.

I'll go the cottage...

first.

OK.

I'll see you there... in 20 minutes?

Sure.

You were right.

What?

We're leaving.

What do we do? Leave on foot?

What the hell does he want from us?

And if he's not the neighbour,

what did he do with him?

Where's the car?

Could you find it again?

I could find it.

We'll take his keys

and drive off in his car.

He's coming to pick you up?

I'm ready.

Wow! You look pretty!

Thanks.

Shall we?

Yeah. I don't know how

I managed to get lost.

I thought that if I continued

going straight...

It's so easy to get lost in the woods.

It'd be a shame if...

That was a nice camera you had.

Ben?

Yes?

What are you doing?

What do you think?

Like this?

Like this.

- Easy...

- Like this.

Easy...

Like this?

- Like this?

- Yeah.

Do it...

Yeah, OK...

Thomas!

What are you doing? Come back here!

Did you enjoy that?

The food was good?

The drink was good?

Good!

Come sit down.

Are you comfortable?

Hi, Jean.

How are you, Jean?

Who are you?

- Did you look for the keys?

- Yes.

They're not on him.

What do you want?

There's a big fly biting you.

Hurts, doesn't it?

Did you enjoy yourself?

That's the last time you'll grab

my girlfriend's ass, you prick.

Get back!

- That's the last time!

- Come on, hit me.

Where are the keys?

Did you enjoy yourself?

Don't touch me, you prick.

Get back! You want to play?

OK, we'll play!

You want to play baseball?

- Come on...

- Oh yeah?

Come on! Hit me!

Let go! Give me that!

Where are the keys?

Answer! Where are the keys, damn it?

We just want to know where...

Give us your keys!

Come on! Do it! Come on, hit me!

- I slept with her.

- It's not true!

Now we're talking!

Let's just go to the car, Thomas.

Come here. I have something to tell you.

He just kissed me!

He's the one who kissed me.

I swear I didn't do anything.

It's true, you don't remember.

Of course not, you were asleep.

The first night...

You'd had a lot to drink.

You don't remember?

Bottoms up!

It burns!

You drank too much, you passed out,

I picked you up.

He was passed out downstairs.

I carried you up.

Yeah! I undressed you...

completely.

It's not true!

Marianne...

You don't remember what happened?

No, that's right. You were asleep.

Yeah, you liked it!

You remember now?

Is it coming back to you?

Is it coming back?

I got on top of you!

Oh, you liked it!

I raped your girlfriend!

- Stop it!

- I f***ed her!

Come on! Hit me!

Do it! Pick up the shovel!

You can do it!

I f***ed her and she liked it!

She yelled my name, not yours!

Get back! Shut up!

Hit me! Don't think about it!

Let's go. We're going.

Wait.

Let me see!

Someone's there...

Come here.

I'll go see.

Your sweatshirt!

Hello. Can I help you?

You're the guy

who put his car in the ditch?

Yes, that's me. Are you Luc's uncle?

Well, give me your keys.

It's all right.

It's the guy from the garage.

I don't know how to feel.

I don't feel a thing.

What have we done?

- What if we get caught?

- Stop.

- What if we get caught?

- Nothing happened, OK?

We won't talk about it.

We'll never talk about it again.

It'll be all right.

Who is it?

It's Michel.

- Hi.

- Hi.

I'm glad to see you!

We were just leaving.

You have to stay and have lunch

with us, that's for sure.

Good to see you.

- You too.

- Hello!

Marianne!

So, did you have a good weekend?

Yeah, we had fun.

- Hi.

- Hlne...

- Marianne.

- Hi, Marianne.

- Hi.

- And Thomas, my nephew.

Nice to meet you.

Weren't you leaving yesterday?

Yeah, exactly. We're going.

That's not what I meant!

I've got some really good stuff.

I'll cook something up.

Nice bottle of wine...

We don't want to cramp your style.

You like the cottage? It's comfortable?

- It's peaceful here.

- It's quiet.

- No telephone...

- I'm going inside.

I'll just grab our things from the car.

Did you lock the back door?

No, we haven't finished

bringing everything out yet.

Is that so?

Did you go out in the boat?

It's silly, but I love it!

We go out all the time.

We leave at dawn, the lake is so still.

It's like a mirror.

- And then...

- Some salad?

...we take all our clothes off,

and we jump in the lake.

It's getting kind of personal.

Blessed peace.

It's good to get out of the city.

- Exactly... Sorry.

- The noise...

It's so quiet here. No telephone, right?

That helps.

Yeah, it's...

Well...

You can talk about it.

It's all right, he's my nephew.

The thing is, her ex...

In fact, your uncle got me

out of there, thank God!

Jean is a good guy, but he has problems.

Yes.

He calls me. He won't stop.

I had to call the phone company.

But he goes to...

- He followed her.

- He goes to shopping malls.

He calls me from pay phones.

I told you to call the police.

He's got problems,

it's all right to be patient,

but there's a limit.

Anyways, you know what I think.

Yes, I know.

- I'm very patient...

- Yes, and I appreciate it.

I know it's your thing,

but it involves me a bit too

since we're together.

Oh yeah, Ben! You haven't mentioned Ben!

How was the handoff of the keys?

We didn't see Ben.

The key was in the lock

when we got here.

He left the key in the lock?

I figured that he got my message.

He knew we were coming.

Well, I called him.

He was supposed to greet you

and everything...

Maybe something came up?

Maybe he had to go back to Montreal.

- But he would've called you.

- That's what I don't understand.

Are you worried?

- Not especially.

- You want to go see?

Yeah, if you don't mind.

The thing is, we have to...

leave soon.

Yeah, we can't stay.

Ben!

It's me. It'll be all right, Ben.

Hang on.

When I see something

and I don't talk about it,

I feel like it doesn't exist.

But it does exist.

Theoretically, yes, but if I...

If I don't tell someone about it,

I'm like:

Did I dream that? Did it really happen?"

You can live something with someone,

and you don't have to talk about it.

You already share it with the person

who you experienced it with.

In fact, what I mean is...

the only thing that can keep

a couple together

is a secret.

I don't know if I'll be able

to not talk about it.
