Odette Toulemonde Page #3

---

Ah.. "Made in China, for Inno"

We get the fans that we deserve, don't we?

Have a good journey back to Paris!

Listen, it's really unlucky for you!

I've not got time to talk to you.

Either today, or tomorrow.

Besides, Franois's going on a

skiing trip for two weeks tomorrow.

I'd like you to help him

get his stuff together.

You won't be there tonight?

I can't, I'm working.

I'll be dead when I get back at 4am.

Some Japanese are coming.

Japanese..

Dolores will make you something..

As always.

As always!

See you soon! We'll speak later!

We do need to talk.

Perhaps we could meet in Japan.

Franois! Franois!

Hello little man

- Hello Dad

Have you been in a fight?

No

Why were you fighting?

.. no reason!

They said things I didn't like.

About you?

About Mum?

About me!

You got in a fight because of me?

I'm tired..

Time to go skiing!

Bye!

- Bye, sweetheart

Have a good time!

Wait, don't you want me to help you

carry your things to the bus?

No, I'd rather not!

- Let's try

But it'll make me look like a baby.

OK, OK.

Have a good time on your trip, OK?

Don't worry.

About what?

- Nothing!

Right, have fun!

- Don't worry..

Wait!

Show me?

Franois Moulin?

Why not Balsan?

I use Mum's name,

that way I'm left in peace.

In peace?

She agreed, you know! Right, bye Dad!

Don't worry.

Sonia? Where's my wife?

Yes, but where is she having lunch?

I know she's turned off her mobile.

It's urgent!

Well, look!

Where? Chez Lipp? Thanks!

You knew! Answer me! She's showing

herself off chez Lipp! So you knew!

Everyone in Paris knows!

The whole of Paris understood

what he meant the other day.

When he described you as a good guy

"the kind of guy a woman

can divorce amicably!"

You're the only one who didn't get it!

It's not so bad though!

You're an old couple.

You've always been open-minded, and it's

never stopped you having adventures.

More discreetly!

More discreetly, it's true but, well..

And not with my wife's worst enemy!

That means it's not just about sex!

that, that.. that means they

that means... that means...

she hates me!

That means...

That means.. she doesn't respect me.

Don't stay there... reverse... come on...

Hang on! Want to have lunch with me?

Willingly!

Hello Bertille!

Hello

She's a miserable one!

I get the hump just looking at her!

She's always on anti-depressants

Where does she work?

- In the toy department!

Oh! Harsh... the kids must

have a real laugh, eh?

This shop is ridiculous!

No-one's in the right department.

You, who loves make up and never

reads a book, they put in the bookshop.

I love to read and don't even wear powder,

and they put me in makeup.

And Josette, who weighs 5 stone soaking wet,

they put in gardening, she has to

carry pots, trees, bags of fertilizer,

And Fat Josie, who can't eat because of

her diabetes they put in the bakery!

She drools all day!

Why'd they put you on the makeup counter?

Because I've got lovely skin!

You HAVE got lovely skin!

Mr. Dargent told me they

only put people on the...

...make up counter who don't

need to wear makeup.

In case they turn up badly made up.

Sue-Ellen! What are you doing here?

Well, I'm looking for a job,

didn't you know?

I didn't know you were coming here.

So?

They agreed.

As a secretary?

No, a sales-girl.

No! After all your studies..

I want to take it, Mum.

Sue-Ellen! Eh?

Which department?

"Lingerie - bras"

I KNEW it!

There it is!

I don't doubt it.

Look!

What?

Look at poor Betty,

Who was forced to cover the job.

What about Betty?

- What's she doing?

She's waiting..

What else?

Well, she's touching her breasts.

Exactly!

She's confirming they're ok!

She's scared! She's giving herself

a breast exam!

Working on the bra section gives you cancer.

Three dead already!

And the others? Quick, she's fainting!

You're not serious?

Yes!

- Poor thing!

She's got three kids!

So everything's ok!

Madame?

Do you think one day Balthazar Balsan

will reply to my letter?

The other hand, Mum!

How are you doing?

Alexandre finished his training course...

he's gone home.

Ah! You're upset.

Well, that's what I thought until yesterday.

When the new trainee arrived.

He's called Olivier!

He's huge and hairy!

If you could see him Mum, he's fab!

I thought you liked clean shaven,

like Alexandre!

Well, so did I... but..

Ooooh... I should tell you off, shouldn't I?

But I understand you so much better than

I understand your sister!

Am I bothering you?

No, sweetheart, come here!

Did you know Rudy does

feet as well as hands?

Really?

Great!

- Thanks!

But it's not very manly...

if you want my opinion?..

Yeah, maybe you're right!

Boys who paint their nails red are gross!

But each to his own!

You prefer Paulo's nails, and they're black!

And don't try to deny it, I've seen them.

It's true, Paulo's not very clean,

Sue-Ellen.

He's disgusting, it's true!

But I didn't choose him for his nails.

Really? What did you choose him for?

You piss me off, the pair of you! F*** off!

Oooh! She's not defending him anymore!

- We're making progress, Mum!

I can't help you if you don't talk to me.

Mr. Balsan!

Why do you refuse to talk?

Because... because...

you're paid to do me good.

It's your job.

You don't love me

I want someone to love me.

One day, when you get to heaven...

God will say to you:

There are lots of people

who want to thank you...

...for the good you

did on Earth, Mr. Balsan.

And among those millions of people

will be Odette Toulemonde.

Odette Toulemonde, who's too impatient

to wait for that day.

Sugar cane, sugar cane, sugar cane

My favorite desert

The sugar cane from my home town.

Do you want some sugar cane?

Sugar, you're nuts!

It's better than banana

You suck it in little pieces

Take a bit, ladies

You'll see, it's so intoxicating

that your husbands, the greedy little pigs

Will say "Give me some more!"

Are you the one who wrote me the letter?

I found you!

I've only got one question but

I'd like you to answer it.

Yes

Do you love me?

Yes!

I... I've whisked my egg-whites

What?

I've just whisked my egg whites

And you know, egg whites..

If you wait too long.. they...

Actually I've got another question..

Yes

Can I ask it?

Yes

Can I really?

- Yes yes!

Can I stay with you a few days?

Pardon?

Answer yes or no.

Yes

Quickly though, because you know,

whisked egg whites won't wait. Come in!

Voil.. Excuse me.

Here! Come and sit down in the living room.

I'll finish whisking them and

I'll sort you out after.

I'm coming

It's never too late.

Ah.. With a bit of elbow grease,

maybe not...

We've never met, have we?

Yes we have! Twice!

Twice!

Oh, I'm sorry.

No, it's not your fault, is it?

It must be me, no-one ever remembers me.

Voil!

Are you always this energetic?

Yes, thanks to you.

Are you ok?

No!

What's up?

I need a break!

I need to get away from

my daily routine, because..

I don't know where I belong anymore!

Well there's no problems here,
