Le champignon des Carpathes Page #5

---

When I was alone, I was caressing her.

Like you. You understand?

Like my mother.

You have the same eyes she had.

And you're leaving me alone,

like her.

Eric, please stop,

you're drunk again.

Once, I went back

upstairs after a...

after a bombardment.

I had left Betty in her box.

My mother came back,

she wasn't dead neither...

What are you saying?

So I took her by the feet and

I banged her head against the wall.

With all my strength!

With all my strength,

and I felt better.

You understand?

You understand?

- There's nothing to understand.

- There is.

It's me.

It's me who killed her.

Now, I found the reason.

The motive.

And those dummies

are thinking it's Kurt.

But it's Kurt.

He fired at you.

It's not Kurt, it's Gaetan.

Only him can know

I strangled his mother.

Now, I know why.

Yes, I know why.

The 13th of august.

I went back home...

I waited for you to celebrate

our anniversary.

Jeanette told me you won't

come back but I'm so dumb

I didn't believed her so I drank.

She called me around 11.

She was not feeling

like sleeping.

She wanted me to try

the mushroom with her.

It's all your fault.

All your fault!

Yes!

After...

I don't remember.

I don't know.

Everything was turning around me.

I saw people I thought

I know... My mother,

Gaetan... and you.

I saw you with your boots.

When I woke up,

she was dead.

I killed Linda Benson

instead of you.

You're the one I wanted to kill.

You! Yes, you!

Get off.

Get off.

Come on, get off!

- Eric, please!

Get off quickly!

- Eric, where are you going?

- To the cops.

You're crazy!

Eric, stop, I beg of you!

Mrs Calder.

I heard the car stop.

Is your husband gone?

Can I help you?

Come to the house.

I'll lend you some slippers.

Come.

Have a seat, Mrs Calder.

Do you want something?

A bit of brandy?

I don't like alcohol.

I don't smoke either.

I never go out.

I'm all alone

now they arrested Kurt.

I only had her, you know.

She never let me go to school.

Let their Cartesian spirit

corrupt me.

She taught me everything.

She was right, isn't she?

I have all this left.

The jackals came to buy them.

How could I sold them?

That's everything I have left.

This is the place she's been

took away from me.

Here.

My poor Linda...

Tell me it's not true.

Listen, Gaetan...

you should not hold it

against him.

He's not responsible.

He didn't know

what he was doing.

He wasn't himself.

It's an accident.

A terrible accident.

But I can't believe it.

Who?

It's not Kurt?

So it's him.

He told you he did it?

He's confessed?

Yes.

I was sure of it.

I tried to put

the blame on me, huh?

He's gonna make up stories

to get through it.

No, he'll tell the truth.

He went to give himself up

to the police.

To the police.

Then it's over, they won't come

to hassle me anymore.

- I guess they'll need you again.

- No. They can't question me more,

I can't stand it anymore.

And I don't care,

he killed Linda.

He finished her off.

I knew it.

I'll tell them. I saw him leaving

on the morning, from my window.

You saw him leaving?

You never told that

to the police.

To the police...

you said you were sleeping.

- I said nothing!

I mean, I didn't say that.

I don't remember,

I was distressed.

Leave me alone,

I've always said it was him.

To the judge...

you said you were sleeping at 11.

- Leave me alone, I don't know.

Come on...

You just told me you recognised him

from your window on the morning.

I didn't say that.

You're making it up.

You're making it up!

He killed Linda.

I tried to stop her to eat

those bloody mushrooms.

When was that?

How did you know?

- She told me.

She told me.

She didn't trust him.

He was slowly poisoning her.

He was always here.

Why was he always here?

To have sex with her.

It's not true!

It's not true.

She couldn't do that to me.

She had no right.

Yes, she had!

Your mum was very pretty.

My husband was cheating

on me with her.

That kind of things happen.

- No.

No. It's not true!

Liar!

She undressed before him.

It was probably here.

And you...

you were in the corridor.

Listening at them.

She had no right.

She had no right

to do that to me!

They took

the mushroom together...

My husband fainted.

You came in...

And you killed your mother.

It's you, isn't it?

It's not true.

It's not true.

It's not true.

You couldn't stand to see

your mother with a younger man.

Isn't it?

That's what happened.

I didn't mean to kill her.

I didn't mean to kill her.

I didn't mean to kill her!

They were here.

Lying down together.

He...

He was asleep.

She recognised me.

She still had her mind.

Why did she do that?

Why did she do that?

She was laughing.

She was laughing at me.

She had no right.

She had no right

to do that to me!

She had no right!

I'd like to speak to

superintendent Kogan, please.

It's urgent.

It's Mrs Calder speaking.

Is my husband here?

Superintendent,

it's Mrs Calfer speaking.

I'm at the Benson house.

Come quickly,

I know everything.

It's Gaetan Benson

who killed his mother.

He's confessed everything.

No, I locked him up.

Come quickly, please.

Superintendent.

Inspector...

- What are you doing here?

I have something

very important to tell you.

You'll do that later.

Follow us quickly.

Your wife is in danger.

Come quickly!

You didn't kill her.

He's confessed everything.

Gaetan?

Yes.

It's not you.

It's not you.

It's not you.

Doctor, come quickly,

he's alive.
