Come on, stop crying.
It'd be worse if she'd broken a leg.
Who'd ever have thought it?
such a child.
Let's hope there's none on the way.
Don't you see what it's doing to me?
I'm in such a state..
- What will you have?
- Just a mandarin and lemon.
It's a nuisance,
but life isn't all laughs.
Things will turn out all right.
Don't cry into the croissants.
That won't help matters.
I mean, really.o
Let's have a drink
and examine the situation.
It's quite simple.
I'm going to tear Fanny apart.
You wouldn't do that.
Wouldn't I? Just you watch.
Let me go, Csar. I'll kill her.
Come, Honorine.
Have a seat and calm down.
Do you want the whole town to know?
- There's no time for that.
What if your mother had killed you
when you were Curly's fiance?
That was different.
He lived just across the hall.
And it was I who went across to him.
Your Marius...
I never told Fanny about that.
Don't cry. It's bad for your health.
Damn your Marius!
How dare he come to my own house?
He raped my daughter.
She can't have screamed very loud.
We'll marry them
and say no more about it.
Children are something.
They're so nice when they're tiny.
But what can you expect?
Youth doesn't last long.
I know, but all the same...
My poor Norine.
Youth passes all too quickly
That will be Marius
climbing back in.
I don't want to see him.
I'd strangle him.
No, not that way.
Go into the kitchen.
And stop crying.
Stop crying.
You trust me, don't you?
I promise you
they'll be married in two weeks.
You can dry your eyes
on the dishcloth. It's clean.
He'll have to stop showing pity now.m
I'll give him time
to rehearse his little charade.
Just getting here?.
I did the housework before coming.
You must have done
a very thorough job of it.
Meanwhile, your stall isn't open.
I've got a good mind
to give you a thrashing!
You should cry
after what you've done.
I was home at 7:
00.Do you follow me?
Forgive me.
No, I can't. It's unpardonable.
You, my own daughter!
Couldn't you have gotten married first?
None of us was against it.
You behaved like Zo.
You might have waited
till it was legal.
He wanted to see you asleep?
He has to marry you.
I want a proposal by midday.
Tell your Marius to hurry up or else!
I've never touched a gun in my life,
but I swear I'll learn real quick!
I'll talk to him myself.
No, Mother!
You don't understand.
If he refuses, don't bother coming home.
You'll no longer be my daughter.
I'll lock myself in my room
and drown in my own tears.
Mother, please don't cry.
Look at that thief.
What are you after?
The fishmonger.
What do you want?
The Hotel Universal placed an order.
That's right.
The fish are still in the tank.
I'll be right over.
I won't kiss you
until you're engaged.
No, Fanny, don't.
Let me go.
Nice day, eh?
Just getting up?
What's the time?
Just past 9:
00.Just past 9:
00?Gosh! I stayed up reading
in bed last night.
It was dawn before I fell asleep.
You shouldn't stay up reading so late.
It's bad for your health.
You don't look too good.
I don't?
Those books you read
must be very tiring.
If I didn't know better,
Did you call me around 7:00?
Just before 7:
00.I called you,
but you went on sleeping.
That's impossible.
Why?u
I never snore.
You even made the customers laugh.
Your door was locked,
so that was that.
Yes, I must have locked it
without thinking.
Without thinking, eh?
Pour your coffee.
Breakfast is ready.
Your trousers are sliding down.
- Really?
- Looks that way.
Maybe I've lost weight.
You read too much.
At this rate,
you'll end up thin as a rake.
Why don't you wear a belt?
You're right. I have to get one.
That's easily done.
What a boy.
You've got a good appetite.
Not bad.
Reading makes you hungry.
What a boy.r
Tell me.That old mistress of yours.
You know,
The one who might kill herself.
Of course.
- What if I am?
You're truly amazing.
Why?
What a boy!
Tell me...
did you tell her
you're getting married?
Not yet, but all the same...
I gave her to understand
that someday...
You don't explain too well,
but I get the picture.
You may be being kind to that girl,
but it's hardly fair on Fanny.
Why?
Because you're keeping her dangling.
- Have you decided to marry her?
- Yes.
Then why don't you talk
to us parents?
- She keeps postponing the date.
- Why?
Whenever I ask her, she says,
"We've got plenty of time."
- That's odd.
- Yes, it is.
Sometimes I wonder
if she prefers Panisse.
She couldn't care less
about that old man.
- Then why keep putting it off?
- That's your fault.
Yes, it's your fault!
You don't understand women yet.
Let me explain.
Women are proud and easily hurt.
And it's no use
trying to hide things from them.
They've got a sixth sense.
Fanny sees you're in no hurry,
so she says,
"We've got plenty of time."
But if you said,
"Meet me at the church tomorrow,"
she'd be there like a shot.
- Maybe you're right.
- I know I'm right.
I'm right, I tell you.
When you see Fanny,
have a serious talk with her.
You should bear in mind
what happened to Zo.
Such a nice girl.
I don't see
what she has to do with me.
You don't know the story?
It's not very pretty.
Zo was good-looking,
a bit of a flirt,
but she meant no harm.
She worked at the match factory.
I can still see her
passing by the bar.
So cute under her big straw hat.
She had a way about her.
All the men watched her.
She'd smile at them,
but it never went further than that.
Then she fell for a Spanish sailor.
and said he'd stay.
And then one day he left.
He deserted her?
He deserted her.
Then Zo...
It was terrible.
The poor kid.
Poor girl.
When a man deceives a woman,
She can never love again,
and she takes to the streets.
And, once she gets started there,
she has nothing to lose.
Honor is like a match.
It can only be used once.
Why tell me all this?o
So you don't just use Fanny
for a good time.
Understand?b
Yes, I understand.
I'm sure she's a virgin,
and I've seen and know nothing.
But if you've been exchanging glances
and caresses,t
you must get married
as soon as possible.
Understand?
I'll talk to her.
Talk to her.
Be very insistent.
Understand?
Because, if you want my opinion,
that sailor of Zo's was no man.
Are you coming?
No.
I told you last night.
Did you get a replacement?
No, I thought
You shouldn't have come.
Especially to tell me that.
I'm not going.
I can't.
You're staying here?
All right.
But if you change your mind,
we're across the quay.
I won't change my mind.
You're making a mistake.
