and could degenerate

into cancer...

of the pancreas.

We're back up.

You did it!

It works!

Bed.

Jean! Jean!

He's often in Athens,

so I have time on my hands,

but I want to be with him

all the time.

I'm falling

completely in love.

It's so enlightening.

For example,

did you know clitoris means

"tiny penis" in Greek?

"Clitoridia".

Pretty, isn't it?

Whenever I mention Sakis,

you clam up.

- It's not that, it's just...

- Why don't you call him?

Like all the others,

he literally disappeared.

He changed his number,

won't reply to emails...

My niece is his daughter's best friend.

She must know where he is.

- Not a good idea.

- Lolo is back with Audrey?

Apparently,

but he's still living at home.

Hey, Violet.

Hi, Annabelle.

Mom.

How's it going, sweetie?

Quit asking.

You are so nosey.

I f***ing hate her.

Let's go.

I always felt

compelled to express my pain

in my works. It's raw and direct.

It all began with

an accidental wound to my ribs.

- A wound?

- Yes.

The weapon was an elbow.

What inspires you?

Life.

My life.

My project is an

"auto-bio-graphic"

nurtured within me

since I was a boy.

That's fascinating.

Yes.

Totally..

The Umbrellas of Death.

It's a real sicko that Lolo.

No kidding. Maybe

even worse than you.

I'm not in his league.

He's a full-on psycho.

Meaning?

Go on, spit it out.

What's in it for me?

I cancel your debt.

- Okay?

- Not bad.

My sister texted me his number.

I'll forward it to you.

- Forget it.

- Too late.

Violette,

we need to talk.

Come.

When Jean-Ren said

everything was down to Lolo...

- What if it's true?

- Are you nuts?

They guy who flipped

on you 10 years ago...

- Didn't he blame Lolo?

- Bertrand?

And Ludo?

And Gary?

Gary?

Lolo was 7!

Lolo didn't make him fled to Thailand

without leaving an address.

And the guy you dumped

over the cashmere sweaters?

- Lolo, where are you? Let's go.

- Yes Mom, coming.

Not possible.

You said Mathieu

was a bad father

for making Lolo wait hours

outside the school.

Hours.

Know what Annabelle told me?

Lolo used to hide.

- What?

- Lolo used to hide.

He even told Annabelle

back then,

"That way mom will yell at dad,

and then he'll leave."

This is Violette.

Calling to see

how you're doing.

Fine. Better.

Good to hear that.

I though I'd drop by

Biarritz in a few days.

I hear it's lovely

in winter.

Not bad.

But I prefer winter in London.

London?

Hey.

What's with the case?

If you won't leave,

I will.

I'll wire you 3,000.

Then you're on your own.

You what?

You're on your own now.

I'm leaving.

You're losing it.

Chill.

Not losing it,

leaving.

Where?

How long?

It's none of your business.

Are you having your period?

No, just fed up!

Calm down, relax.

You're so tense.

Let me go.

What's up?

We were getting on fine.

You want me to leave?

You go. I find someone.

You reappear, wreck everything.

What are you talking about?

Don't blame me for

your crackpots.

I read your journal.

My journal?

You drove them

all insane.

Ah, my journal!

Wait, wait, wait.

That's conceptual.

For my next project

"Fiction-bio-graphic".

Oh.

It's all made up.

Not buying it.

It's your fault

I keep getting dumped.

No, half of them

couldn't take your sh*t.

- Thanks.

- Who is it now?

Another loser

I'll have to scare off.

What's wrong with you?

Jean is right.

Jean-Ren?

You're running to J.R.?

He tried to kill me!

He's a mental case!

A perverse!

Narcissist! Sociopath!

He'll chop you up and eat you!

Is that what you want?

You're leaving me for him?

I'm not leave you.

I'm cutting the cord.

Too easy, mom.

Walking out on me

after tying me down for so long.

Don't you remember?

Telling me every night

I was the love of your life.

You're my son, that's what

mommies tell their little boys.

I believed it.

I believed, Mom.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have.

No.

Look...

Listen to me.

We start over.

I messed up, I was immature.

I won't do it again.

I behaved like a kid.

I know I hurt you.

But I'm a changed man.

More mature, since October.

I'll move across town.

We'll meet now and then,

Sunday maybe.

I'll go see a shrink.

Done. The cord is cut.

I feel so cool.

I'll go then.

Are you really going to

leave me alone, mama?

When I'm not well.

Suffering.

If you go,

I'll kill myself.

Mom,

my eggs and toast.

- Hey.

- Hm.

You're moving to London?

No, just 3 days.

- Only 3 days?

- Yes

Pity.

Let's get a taxi,

drop your suitcase off.

When they saw me cracked

the virus in less than 48 hours,

they hired me on the spot.

From a hospital bed to the City.

Look at you.

In a few months,

the naive peasant

I fell in love with has gone.

- You kept making fun of me.

- I was really cute.

Now you're swimming with the sharks,

I'm not sure we have a future.

Cut it out. I'm still the same guy.

See?

You haven't given a penny

to any of the homeless guy so far.

I didn't see them.

- Hold on, call of nature.

- Call of the wild!

- I need to pee.

- Hold on.

- You know where it is?

- Yes.

This place is huge.

Hello...

Sabine,

stop running around

half-naked.

She has a key just in case.

Must've had a party nearby.

Of course.

Sabine,

tell me when you're

staying over.

Yeah, yeah.

[Sabine is Jean's daughter]
