but you have savings!

I don't even have money

put aside.

- How did you get by, then?

- Off the savings from my job.

What savings?

I don't have any left.

I spent it all.

- The down payment on the car?

- My savings.

So of the $2250 we found,

none of it's yours.

No. It's all Noria's.

Try and prove me wrong!

When did you first come to France?

Three years ago.

Why?

As a tourist.

I wanted some new clothes,

get dressed up, buy a suit,

look sharper...

- Got any family?

- I have 5 brothers.

- They in France?

- In Tunis.

Do you know Raoul Bensimi?

Or Tarak Louati?

We're from the same neighborhood.

- Ever see them in France?

- No.

Well, Tarak, yes.

I see him once in a while.

But you saw Raoul in Marseille.

- Ever been to Marseille?

- No, never.

Well, yes I have.

I went there to visit him.

Once.

Why visit him?

You must have had a reason.

No, I just went down there.

Bensimi says he met you

and Louati in Marseille.

He says you wanted him

to sell heroin for you.

Bensimi is lying.

Some guy named Simon gave him

a phone number in Paris...

It's mine, sure I know it!

Then you supply Raoul with heroin.

Not me. And no one

calls me Simon anyway.

And I personally gave

the phone number to Raoul.

We tapped Raoul Bensimi's line.

Your number was dialed.

A woman asked Raoul if he wanted

a lot. What's that about?

I don't know.

Ask Noria what it's all about.

Someone told Raoul

that Simon just left.

- No one calls me Simon!

- No one?

That's vague.

Lots of people are called Simon.

Then he asked to speak to Maxime,

your brother.

Is that vague?

There are tons of Maximes!

You admit your brother

answers the phone?

He's not in Paris.

He was deported from France!

But he came back!

He answered the phone!

Explain it!

I don't know.

I got nothing to explain!

If you have proof, charge me.

I know my rights.

I can't hear a thing.

How did you find this out?

How?

Through the grapevine, Mangin.

I don't know. Is it serious?

They made some dumb moves.

They're all in dope up to their ears!

You've got nothing on him.

You know the Marseille cops

are taking you for a ride?

Oh yeah, sure!

His brothers'll be real happy!

Right. No, it's OK.

Fine, thanks.

Am I seeing you later?

When, late?

Call me first, OK?

Bye, Lambert.

This is Camel...

Lambert the lawyer.

How are you?

See you later. No problem.

Try to cool them.

Mangin summoned me.

Bechir always hugs me.

I'd rather he paid me!

He'll pay you.

He's not working now.

He's got a specialty

that makes big money.

If you're the best,

how come you're not working?

I'm taking a rest.

Nobody keeps cash at home.

Get into another racket.

I'll get you off if you get caught.

You're embarrassing.

You talk crap!

If I introduce you to big shots,

they'll say:

"Who is this joker?"

I was kidding.

It's not funny. You get a bullet

up the ass, you won't be laughing!

These people have no sense of humor.

We're fed up! Especially now.

People are killing each other.

Simon got busted.

In Tunisia, 600 died in riots

over the price of bread!

I've had it with Arabs.

I named my kids Sebastian

and Frank, not Mohamed and Ali.

He'll explain Simon's case.

He's not my client.

This is all hearsay.

They sent a BW from Marseille...

Could you repeat that, please.

What's a BW?

"Bench Warrant". The Marseille cops

sent one to the Paris cops.

"Bench" because a judge issues it.

The way I see the case,

they won't let him go.

It's bad news to have Marseille

on your back right now.

They're tougher than Paris.

They'll never let him go.

I'll try my best

to get the girl out.

We only care about our brother.

Screw the girl!

Why can't you just put up bail

and get out, like in America?

The Marseille cops

want to nail him.

France has no real mob.

What are they scared of?

In Holland, Germany, Spain,

you put up bail and you get out.

Why didn't you warn Simon?

You're the family lawyer,

aren't you?

What do you mean,

I didn't warn him?

Someone informed on him.

I just found out.

We have friends who can't

tell all they know.

Thanks. It was very good,

but I don't eat much.

That's OK,

it's the thought that counts.

What's this? How come?

Peppermint liqueur.

The lady bought it for you.

Thank you.

Who's that?

That's Assia, Caleb's wife.

You got him out of jail.

To your health.

I have to talk to that guy.

We can trust him.

OK, sign it.

Sign what?

I'm not signing anything.

You said it.

I said nothing. I refuse.

Whether you sign or not,

it's the same.

I'm signing nothing.

If he won't talk,

we're screwed.

I'll book 'em and take 'em

back to Marseille.

Let's give it another try.

- He's a real pain.

- We'll see.

Your jacket.

- I want to see the detective.

- You'll wait.

- I want the detective.

- You'll have to wait.

I want to see him! F*** you!

- You saw him!

- F*** you!

Two hours late. What are you doing

with a chick like that, moron?

You like her? She turn you on?

Hey, take it easy.

Anyway, she's in trouble

right now.

Her pimp's crazy.

He won't let her stop.

He's a criminal!

Stop. I can't talk

seriously to you.

You're always f***ing off!

No, I'm telling you,

she's chasing me. You know?

Look at your suit.

You look like a pimp.

Sure! He calls me pimp again!

Yes, it's true, pal. Really.

You don't see you're going over

to the other side.

It's OK to eat with crooks, but you

give 'em an inch, they take a mile.

- You'll be in it for good.

- Are you joking?

You're telling me

I'm turning into a crook?

Yeah, that's it.

Let's go and take a look.

- I don't like you like this.

- Come on.

- Is Lydie downstairs?

- No one here.

I can't let you in.

- Is she here?

- No, I told you.

They're all born liars.

You're here!

I'm with my friend,

Detective Mangin.

Seen one, you've seen 'em all!

I got run in by plainclothes cops.

By me? Come on!

Soon, I won't be able to work.

And Dd's back now.

I've had enough.

He's driving me crazy.

Tell him it's over.

I told him,

he doesn't believe me.

I don't know. Turn him in.

Plant some dope on him.

OK. Will your cop friends help?

What are you doing?

Talking to the detective.

He's gonna get those charges dropped.

Don't listen to her, she's drunk.

Sorry. There's a birthday party

for some friends. Come on,

I better get back.

He's already mad.

Now he'll be pissed off!

- Goodnight.

- No, wait.

Sorry.

Dd sh*t on me.

Did you see that?

You bust him, then he'll call me

to defend him. Can you do that?

I'll put him back behind bars,

he won't even know it was me.

I can have him put away

for 2 years.

I'll see he gets a long sentence,

and he'll thank me!

You gotta have a few laughs.

That's a real treat to a cop,

and it's harmless.

If people get hurt, they deserved it.

Some, anyway.

I'm sick of defending my clients.

Let me tell you,

they're all thieves and murderers.

Everything in their files is true!

We do our jobs right, that's all.

I say to the judge, "Your Honor,
