I don't believe it...

Oh, sh*t!

Sugar, daddy, sugar.

What are you doing? Go and wash.

Jacob, have you done a pee?

Go and do a pee, then.

Aim carefully

or it sprays all over.

Okay! What does ''prays'' mean?

Just a second. All right, in you go.

Get in the bath.

Take your T-shirt off.

Take it off, love.

Mind your head.

Here we go.

I'll go fetch your things.

What's going on?

Here, get dressed, love.

Jeremy, get out of the bath.

Faster than the speed of light!

That's my Pokemon T-shirt!

Take it off. Give it to him.

I'll get you another.

Stop fighting, I'm sick of it.

Go dress in your room.

Jacob, out of the bath now.

Go get dressed.

Out of the bath!

Put your T-shirt on.

Mom, where are my socks?

Have a look in the corner there.

Garden gnome!

Mom...

Constantin called me a garden gnome.

What's a garden gnome?

An ugly little man

with a red T-shirt and baggy pants.

I don't want these pants!

Garden gnome!

We'll change them later.

- It's ready.

- Here we come.

Pokemon garden gnome.

Hurry it up!

I'll bang your heads together.

- I didn't want a egg.

- You rotten egg.

What's that on your T-shirt?

Where? What?

Pokemon, Muk stink attack!

Yes, and you?

Hurry up.

We'll go faster like this.

Lead the way, Constantin.

Wait for me before you cross.

Okay, let's go.

Mom...

I don't want to go to school.

You don't want

to go to school, sausage?

Even when we're apart,

we're still together.

- Where?

- In my heart.

You like to run?

I'll hold onto your rabbit.

I'm worried you'll lose it.

Say bye-bye to mommy

and in we go.

One...

Two...

Three...

Four...

The lemon's for the hangover?

How about

a peaceful breakfast for once?

I simply asked a question.

No, it's not for the hangover.

I thought you preferred milk.

You're being aggressive.

I only asked

why you're using lemon in your tea.

That's not being aggressive.

I'm sick of you yelling at me.

And I'm sick of wasting my time

with a f***ing drunk!

Mademoiselle's getting

common again. Just listen to you.

What about when you're sloshed?

''Sloshed'', ''f***ing''...

The proles don't mince words.

My family's as good as yours.

And walking away is common too!

No, it's dignified.

People in our world don't yell.

ignity for you

and leave the others in their sh*t!

We're nothing but sh*t now.

You and me...

We have sh*t feelings,

sh*t words,

a sh*t relationship...

It's pathetic.

It's pitiful, it's shitty!

It's hopeless!

You're right.

I'm sorry.

We'll do as you want.

You're not working?

No, I want to listen to some music.

In the morning?

One of the speakers is dead.

You can't listen to music like that.

I think

I have a Walkman somewhere.

What?

Nothing.

Yes, ust a second.

I see why my translation's so slow.

It's your mother.

Hello, Carole.

Hello, mom.

No, I'm fine.

Really.

We won't stay long.

We aren't even there yet.

Watch the light!

- It's our fauIt.

- What is?

They hit us when you braked.

It's all falling.

We can't stay here all night.

It's next week, okay.

I'm sure of that now.

I thought it was...

Jean told me he was in Kaakhstan

until last week.

Today's the 24th.

Or maybe he told me

he was changing hotels.

Come on, it doesn't matter.

Let's go home.

I wasn't too keen anyhow.

- Why don't we go dancing?

- What?

Just kidding.

You can go if you want.

I have no idea

where to drop you off.

I don't know either.

I'm not so sure.

- Yes, you are.

- No, I'm not!

Remember how I danced at home?

I liked that.

You don't do it anymore?

No. You hadn't noticed?

It's okay, they're asleep.

- Hello, Justine.

- Hello, Hubert.

Come in. It's a bit of a mess today.

I'm sorry.

What's going on?

Your twentieth?

No, we haven't been together

20 years yet.

- That's sweet of you.

Have a seat.

- It's our son's birthday.

- Which one?

Jeremy, he's six today.

How silly, if I'd known...

on't worry.

Would you like a coffee?

If you have some ready.

Even if I hadn't...

Okay, Hubert?

Hello, Richard.

Would you prefer to work

another day?

No, they want the script

this afternoon.

We have to finish.

This solves all our problems

with scene 24.

Excuse me...

The stereo's not working.

What are we going to do?

They don't need music.

They do, a little...

Let them look at books or watch TV.

I liked dancing when I was six.

I picked up a lot of girls that way

dancing to rock tunes.

If I catch you...

They're here.

I'll catch you.

I've caught you!

Something wrong?

I can't hear myseIf think.

Tell me things, Constantin.

I can't know otherwise.

Constantin.

Look at me.

Look into my eyes

and you'll see if I'm lying.

I don't prefer another man

to your daddy and that's the truth.

It's also true that daddy and mommy

aren't happy together anymore.

You know that. You can tell.

But there's no one else involved,

ust the two of us.

Whatever happens between us

won't change a thing.

We love you and that's what counts.

You understand?

Yes, I understand

Yes. Well, almost...

Meaning?

Constantin asked me

if I preferred another man to you.

You told him the truth?

What truth?

All those guys. o I know?

Yes, you do.

You know why

and you know it's over.

There'll be others.

You've always said that.

And I wasn't wrong.

That's too easy.

Nothing seems too hard for you.

As soon as you faIter,

she finds a new man.

It didn't happen that quickly.

It had been three years

since you touched me,

three years of telling me

you feIt nothing for me.

- Here we go again.

- When you don't feel like it...

What don't I feel like?

Seeing you screwed by a**holes,

guys who take you both ways?

on't tell me

you're sorry you enoyed it.

Those guys are in you forever now.

How do I live with that?

I have to share my bed with them!

You have the right to desert me

and you don't give a damn

if I'm happy?

Happiness, pleasure...

Today's keys words! Go ahead,

be happy, enoy yourselves!

Can you honestly complain?

Look around you.

Are you sick? Look at Hubert.

What's wrong

with people being happy?

I cry every day and you can live

with the idea that I was taught

to suffer for others?

- o you suffer for others?

- They make me suffer.

Who do you love?

I love you but I should hate you.

You can't ust say, ''I love you.''

We'll never manage it.
