We'll catch them in the valley. Let's go.

Guess we've got them.

The road's getting better and better.

- We've probably lost them.

- You think so?

Don't move.

Mr. Comissioner!

What a nice surprise.

Is it after all now?

- Is it the end?

- Yes. Please, follow me.

I can't do it any longer, mr. Comissioner.

Why did you demand a ransom, if you haven't

abducted him?

- To make them not to take it.

- Who's 'them'?

Abducters.

I don't know where's president.

I didn't abduct him.

- Stubborn one.

- I don't know how to make him talk.

All you have to do is to grab his finger

and rotate it.

Everyone, but not her.

Do you want to find the president?

Some methods are forbidden by our law.

Then why did you make the revolution?

Mr. Comissioner.

Can I talk with you for a moment.

It's getting late. Aren't you tired?

I'd like to leave.

Can I take the coat?

Are you going with me?

You're leaving? At such moment?

I'mt ired. You won't find the restaurant

today. President.

It's about life of people's hero,

and you're thinking about a pub.

Both heroes and pubs are needed.

Pubber.

I prefer nordic types.

She called me a pubber.

But it all ended up happily.

- Sure thing.

- And I took part in it.

Congratulations.

You first.

Talking about congratulations.

Will you talk about it with Minister?

- About it?

- Yes.

We'll think about it tonight.

I'll drop in on you for the supper.

In this case I'll prepare rams legs

a la Septime.

He'll start talking. You'll see.

Gentlemen!

Good bye.

And now let's go to Septime's.

Yes, sir.

Thank you, Emil. Welcome, mrs Baron.

Welcome, mr. Minister

- Good day, mr Septime.

- Oh my God.

- Mrs Baron. Mr Minister.

- Welcome, Mr. Septime

What is it?

We'll make a short trip.

- Isn't it the end?

- By plane.

- No.

- It is.

- No.

- Enough of this.

Drive according to what I say.

Straight ahead. And then turn to the left.

Are we starting everything from

the beginning?

Let's go.

Now that's too much.

You're wasting your time. I've nothing

to do with it. Case closed.

- Not really.

- How come? I don't understand.

You'll understand.

Soon.

Don't worry, nobody's gonna hurt you.

Everything will be fine. You'll see.

I'll see...

Excuse me?

Mr President?

I'm so happy, that I see you.

So how is it? Are they treating you nicely here?

I had never been so happy as I am right now.

I'm free.

Free.

Free, but you're a prisoner.

- Of my own.

- I don't get it.

I'll tell you then. There was no abduction.

How come?

- I abducted myself.

- What?

Yes, I abducted myself.

It was me, who organised this escape.

Everything began at your restaurant.

I know.

I'm sorry, but I couldn't take it

any longer. I had to escape.

Do you know how the politician's life looks like?

Meetings, reports, hypocrisy.

I've had enough of this.

Did you think about the problems,

you were going to make me deal with?

I was lacking space, clean air,

freedom...

... fishing, birds' songs. I've finally

discovered the beauty of the nature.

And of France. It's a wonderful country.

I know, but it's stupid. Before taking power

you should know...

...what you want, because that's why you're

actually taking it. To keep it.

If I had known...

But now it's too late. I can't leave

my restaurant.

That's not, what I want.

- That man is a pyramid.

- He was the pyramid.

- Faithful friend.

- And that loving secretary?

I'm leaving her to you.

- I don't want her.

- So don't I.

So?

Everything gets boring some day.

Even earthquakes.

We'll have to solve that problem somehow.

- Please have a seat.

- Thank you.

Holidays passed. I owe the most

beautiful days to you as well.

- I can't say that.

- That's why I brought you here.

I want to repair all the harms, I've

done to you.

How?

- I'll make you a hero.

- A hero?

Yes.

"Mr Septime becomes a hero. Owner

of the restaurant saves head of the country..

...from abducters".

- President has disappeared.

- What did you do to him?

- I don't know!

- You won't fool me for the second time!

Where is he? Where did you hide him?!

Music.

- I'd like to know...

- They're playing the national anthem.

No, you can't.
