and others aren't allowed.
So, with you, did somebody
do something that was wrong?
It was my daddy.
Okay.
What did your daddy do?
He scratched my bottom.
Okay, tell me...
When he scratches your bottom,
where are you?
In my bedroom.
In your bedroom?
Do you have your own room?
Yes.
What's your room like?
Pink and white.
Like that.
Pretty, isn't it?
I love pink.
Ask her, was it at night?
Over or under her pajamas?
Dolores...
I need you to help me understand.
- Will you help me?
- Yes.
What does Daddy do in your bedroom?
- Scratches my bottom!
- Okay.
Where's your bottom?
Under my leggings-
I don't understand.
Why did Daddy do that?
Because he wanted to.
Does Daddy scratch
over or under your leggings?
Under my pajamas.
Does he take off your pajamas?
No.
And are you awake?
No.
No, you're asleep?
So you don't remember?
If Daddy did it, you have to tell us.
But if he didn't,
don't go telling tales.
See?
Dolores...
You remember Daddy
scratching your bottom?
- What did you say?
- Nothing.
- Don't lie to Daddy.
- We're not lying.
- Tell the truth.
- It is the truth.
Don't cover up for Mommy.
- Do you love Daddy?
- Yes.
- Swear!
- We swear.
- You crossed hands.
- We swear.
Hands like that.
On the table.
What about our toes?
Don't cross your toes.
You're crossing your feet, aren't you?
Swear you won't lie.
We swear We won't lie.
- Always tell the truth.
- We'll always tell the truth.
This is the time to laugh and to sing
On children's island, every day is spring
It's the gleeful land of happy children
And lovely monsters Yes, it's paradise
This garden is not so far
It just takes a little imagination
So here or there, Wherever you are
Flowers, songs and laughter will grow
This is the time to laugh and to sing...
If only
your parents
Wanted to five on our island
Everything would be
so much happier
And everybody's lives so much easier
This is the time to laugh and to sing...
And lovely monsters
Yes, it's paradise
I'm asking you
if you had a hard-on or not, sir.
- No, I didn't.
- It's simple.
No hard-on?
So what's all this about a Wiener?
She can say what she wants.
Was it poking out? Out of your...
Maybe she watches too many TV movies.
I see.
such a precise description?
You have kids?
Sir, you have been indicted
on charges of
rape of a minor by a family member.
So if there's a time
to tell the full story
so she can rebuild her life,
it's now.
your granddaughter again.
So, you gave her a hug...
I already told you.
I gave her a hug as usual.
Like any grandfather.
And then, I've no idea why,
my hand kind of slipped and I...
And all of a sudden...
I stroked her kitty-cat
and I gave it a kiss but nothing else.
Your granddad says
he just kissed your kitty-cat.
Did he do anything else?
I didn't rub up against her.
- Yes, you did!
- That's not true!
Why talk about rubbing,
when she hasn't mentioned it?
She said it this morning.
Sorry, I don't know who told you that,
but you've no idea
what she told us or not.
Did you rub on her?
No. If I have to say I did
to protect her, I will.
- If you want.
- To protect her?
The best way to protect her
is to tell the truth.
- Not always.
- No, sir.
So what happened?
I undressed
and caressed her, and y'know.
"Y'know"?
Y'know doesn't exist
For a judge, it means nothing.
Marie, don't tell fibs.
Tell the truth now.
"Tell the truth"?
Soon you'll be saying she led you on.
I didn't say that.
Not quite.
rape your friend?
Aren't you ashamed?
You realize?
You see it's serious?
Shut your face.
Quit sucking my p*ssy off!
Sucking your p*ssy off?
You're 14. Oooh, scary!
You're 1m5O tall. Oooh, scary!
You sellout!
Sellout?
Skank b*tch.
I ask your opinion?
Take a chill pill!
Take a chill pill?
What's that mean?
You big up 'cos it says police.
Come by where I live.
And where d'you live?
- I'm from Rbeval.
- Rbeval?
That's teddy bear country.
Your skank ass'll get it.
Okay. I work 9-7 every day.
On the Qur'an, I'll come f*** you up!
Know what? Shut up now!
Or we'll keep you 2 days in the cells.
Got that?
That mouth of yours! Can it!
I want a lawyer. I have rights.
You watch too much TV.
"I want a lawyer!"
He'll come down, see everything's okay
and take off.
With what we've got on you,
just shut your mouth!
We've got videos
of you taking your friend down there.
Into the garage
where your 3 buddies raped her.
And you mouth off at us?
This is the police here.
Just shut the f*** up!
A mouth 10 feet wide, that's all!
Hi there.
Daddy!
How's my little girl?
- Good.
- Good good good?
Yes!
Happy to see your old dad or not?
You just breeze in
like this is a hotel?
Hello.
Can We talk calmly?
Yeah, right.
You say he cheated on me.
Sure, but I cheated on him.
It's totally different.
You fell for somebody else.
He listened to his cock.
That doesn't alter the fact
we're tied, 1-1.
- Sure, it does.
- How come?
Because!
He was just following his cock...
And you...
You were following your heart.
That's the point.
Cheating with your head
not your cock is worse.
No, I don't agree.
How can I put it?
A cock's nothing, you see?
- A cock's nothing? Depends whose!
- You know what I mean.
Don't let it dominate...
Having feelings isn't a crime.
Feelings are noble.
A cock's just icky!
- Maybe...
- It's icky.
Just dipping your wick? I'm gone.
Think with your cock? Stop.
Think with your heart? Stay?
Your kid'll prefer
seeing her mom and dad
happy but separated, rather than
together, fighting like cat and dog.
Believe me.
You know how crazy we are.
Even apart, We won't take it easy.
Forget it then.
Forget it, it's over.
Seriously, do you love her?
- Of course he does.
- Absolutely.
So be honest,
say you need time to think,
just a few days.
You can stay at mine if you want.
Cline loves you.
I love you guys,
but you're always copulating.
Tell me about your Iovelife,
not my hubby.
I quit.
I'm sick of getting laid.
Until I find the one,
total abstinence.
Brilliant!
What's funny?
I want a relationship.
Romance, love, all that.
How do you explain Rachida?
Not Rachida!
What?
Arabs voted for Sarkozy, too.
Or he wouldn't have won.
Not me, no way.
So he could send me "back"? Look at me!
He was still elected president.
Which proves?
What does it prove?
It doesn't give him every right.
He was Treasury Secretary,
Interior Minister...
Look at his legal reforms. A mess!
He's always the first to step up
to defend the police.
But we've never had such a bad rap.
People think we don't protect them,
that we're no use.
- As always.
- Not as always.
Except, before, we were their lackeys.
- Bamako...
- We couldn't speak out!
