there when you come back

I wouldn't drag Loulou

into anything risky

- What time do we meet him?

- Eleven

- Let's go, then

- A drink first?

No, let's drive there slowly,

calm ourselves down

Where are we going?

Champigny

- Don't be scared

- I'm not

Stop sulking, then. You're not

making it any easier

Kiss me

- Let's go

- Yes

Lots of stuff this time

Can you open the door, Thomas?

Make yourself at home

- Shall I go up?

- Yes, to the living room

- Can we have a drink?

- Sure, you know where it is

Be quiet, though

Keep quiet, don't wake her up

Give them all a drink

- Be quiet!

- Come on, we deserve a drink

Get the glasses

Let me show you something

Nice place... oh, hell

- A beauty, isn't it?

- A real Santa Claus!

Don't break it or we'll have to buy it

Come, I want to show you

my little boy

Oh yes, must go to work

Hello

All right?

Well, we're waiting for you

We'll go on waiting, then

You are cheerful today

Think I'm a fool?

You never stop yawning

and stretching

Do I pay you to see a face showing

you've been screwing all night?

OK, I'm a masochist

But there's a limit. And you yawn

on purpose just to torment me

Well, I've had it. You aren't the

only lay in the world, you know

It's hell. I thought I could

take it, but I can't

Shall I leave now or wait till you

get someone else?

Get out! Now!

- May I watch TV?

- Go ahead

What is it?

I'm going to get some fags, Loulou

That's Nelly. Lulu,

a friend of mine

What is it? You still love him?

Oh, of course not

You still love him.

That's why you're like this

Slept with him again, didn't you?

Where did you hear that?

Someone told me

Who told you such rubbish?

Someone who got it

from Andr himself

I doubt it

Let's drop it. Come in

- Here, I've brought you flowers

- That's nice

He's staying with us for a while,

Nelly

He's out of prison.

Paris is off limits

Will I be in the way?

No, but you won't be very

comfortable

Oh, I can sleep anywhere,

you know

Thanks. It's sweet of you

- Can I help?

- No, I'm all right

What do you want to eat?

Get me some meat

I'll come and help, anyway

Planet Earth is threatened

by invaders...

It's threatened by your rubbish

I'll get some fruit

Pick me up after dinner, all right?

All right?

Did you phone Mum?

Another fight with Andr?

- You know?

- Yes

- It's very nice here

- Why not?

You know Loulou?

I'll bring the food

Isn't it a bit noisy up here?

Well, it can be

Only early morning, delivery vans.

It's not too bad otherwise

- What's the rent like?

- I don't know. Ask Nelly

- 1,000 francs a month

- That's about it

- Well, that's not too high

- No, we're lucky

What will you do when

the baby comes?

Why ask me?

She's my sister. I'm concerned

I hear you don't want to work

I do, I just don't know

what work I could do

How about being a taxi driver?

Don't know

They took away my license

And working in a warehouse for

2,000 francs a month isn't for me

What exactly can you do?

Everything

Everything and nothing

That's not much, is it?

How about running a caf,

for example?

You need a fortune for that

Who'll pay?

If it's a success, it costs a lot

If it isn't, it costs even more

I'd like to help. I'm ready to set

you up if you have any ideas

No rush

I've never gone hungry yet

The child won't go hungry either

But given the choice,

what would you like to do?

Well, nothing

Is Mum all right?

Yes. She'd like to see you

more often

Take Loulou to meet her

- Yes, of course

- I'd like to...

- I'd like to meet your mother

- Of course

Hello, Pierrot

How are you doing?

You're in Paris? Take a seat

- Am I interrupting?

- No

Sit down

That's her brother

Oh yes. This is Michel, my brother

How are you?

All right. I came to invite you

for next Sunday

Yes. I was going anyway

Perfect timing

Well, goodbye

I think we said it all

- Said it all, haven't we?

- Yes

- I'll call you

- Do that

'Bye, Michel. Thanks

Give Annie my love.

Mind the door

What was that?

He's stuck on work, that's all

You're daft!

Well, no. These cars

need shaking up

- The brakes need changing

- Give me the keys, I'm driving back

It's all right, I tell you.

It's good for the engine

Here they are

'Morning, how are you?

Well, well, that's great, Pierrot

He kept nagging me about

what to cook

He prepared it all, did all

the shopping, everything

Hello, boy. Oh, he's grown,

he's really grown

Hello, Aunt

Franoise, take this, will you?

Do you think we should

put the lamb in now?

- What's its name?

- Mis

Hello, Marie-Jo

- Happy?

- Yes

I won't be eating with you.

Thomas is in a mood

He was all right the other day

My daughter's married a terror.

He drives us all crazy

He's a nice guy, but sometimes

he gets a bit...

The day she brought that one

home...

...she really won first prize

Marie-Jo, this is Lulu, a friend

This is Marie-Jo, my sister

Where's Franoise?

Franoise, are you coming?

There, Auntie Franoise

- Join us for a drink

- Come back later, Marie-Jo

See you later, little Marie

Join us for coffee

What's Nelly drinking?

- What will you drink?

- Ricard

- Franoise?

- A Martini

She wants a Martini

Did you open them?

Both of us. It took hours, though

Here's to you! To us!

Who wants a Martini?

Put more water in it

Here, to us!

Not so much

He put in too much Pastis,

didn't he? Easy now

You'll get sloshed

- It's too strong

- And he filled it up

Don't worry

All right, who's first?

You serve her. She's drunk

Behave yourself, Mis,

or I'll tie you up

He's nice

Well, is it good?

Where's your plate, Franoise?

We didn't put enough

Hard work, but they taste good

- Lemon or vinegar?

- Vinegar, I think

What will you do when

the baby comes?

When he's here, I'll get a job

- Here he goes again

- I'm asking because of the baby

What kind of job?

I'm looking. Any job will do.

We'll see

What is he going to do?

I don't know. There are

all kinds of jobs

- You mean you'll work?

- Yes, I want to

Some work to do with wine

Not as a bottle-opener, I hope

Yes, I'll work in a wine cellar.

At Nicolas's

Get the chicken. It's in there

Come here, Mis. Go to bed

He bit the chicken.

There goes our lunch

- You'll mess it up

- Let's tidy up a little

I'm a guest, Loulou.

I can eat, can't I?

Are you bringing the next course?

It's not ready yet.

Franoise is checking

Put the shells in here.

Some are still good

- Sorry, I didn't notice

- That's all right

When it's cooked you'll have it

Put the leftovers in there

Good oysters, aren't they?

Wait, let's get clean plates

Will you do the dishes, then?

We're guests today.

Pierrot can do the dishes

Why me? I'm not doing the dishes

You OK?

I'm not doing the dishes. Forget it

Do you want ice-cream?

It's better than Mum's and Dad's

Better than your thumb, right?

Oh, you're a love

You know, Pierrot wasn't much older

when I took him in

His father left home, and

his mother worked in Paris

He was always alone. We lived
