He's right, you know. lt's probably

nothing, but after all, a war is a war!

l'm sorry, Pierre!

l had no intention of allowing your

departure to go unmentioned.

You know, even these brick walls

are fond of you young men in uniform.

Most of you have flunked several times

and so the building knows you best!

A moment ago, someone also trivialized

the dangers ofthese times.

With all my heart, l hope

these optimists are right.

We must trust in our government

and the future ofthis country.

- Please take this to my desk.

- Yes, madame.

Armand, tell Juliette

to get moving, will you?

Sure, chief!

- Well, madame?

- Just a minute, Juliette.

- l'll be going then.

- Yes, very well. Good night.

Good night, madame.

Oh, forgive me, madame.

No... it's my fault, really.

Doesn't matter. A little late tonight.

- Thank you.

- Don't mention it.

l'll post it immediately. Good night.

- Good night, Juliette.

No, l beg you! No, please!

Let's do it here!

Please, don't!

Yes, it's perfect, nobody can see us.

Please, no... please! Armand!

Hello!

Good evening!

Hey!

Anyone here?

Anyone back there? Juliette?

Madame Michoud?

Hello, anybody there?

Juliette?

Valentino can't wait any longer.

He's had an attractive offer.

Yes, of course, l understand.

l just can't miss this opportunity.

l have to go to Paris. Can you hear me?

Eliane!

Yes, yes, of course.

What time did you say, uh...

Oh, l'm catching the evening train.

Did you say something?

What time did you say

you have to...

Eliane, why don't you come with me?

l'd like to, darling. lt's such a long

time since we were in Paris together.

That would be nice, but l

know you're tied to the shop.

l meant, why don't you

come to the station?

We have some customers in

the shop. Goodbye, darling!

Pig!

You pig!

- Why, what did l do?

l don't think she'll be back before 8.

Supposing l go home...

Yeah, put on some weight.

As far as l'm concerned, you can go

home whenever you like. l'm on duty.

Listen to that crap, "on duty"!

lf Madame Michoud isn't here,

you can't sell a piece oflint.

Orders are orders, and l'm

a model assistant.

Assistant, my foot!

You're a shop boy, my dear.

A miserable shop boy. And it's obvious:

once a shop boy, always a shop boy.

Yeah? Once a c*nt,

always a c*nt!

- What do you want?

- Good evening, madame. May l come in?

Are you crazy? My daughter's asleep,

you want to wake her up?

- Not if you're quiet.

Shall we wake the little darling?

All right, l'll try again.

No! Please, l beg you!

Mama?

- What is it, darling?

- The kitchen, it's flooded!

Yes, l...

l left the water running!

Come along.

Justine, will you go

back to bed, please?

We're right in the middle

ofthe blackout...

and l'm sure you've left the lights on.

Go back to bed, darling.

Please, go to bed. l can

take care ofthis myself!

- Don't you want me to help you?

- No, l want you to go back to bed!

Go to your room!

- All right.

You've got to get up early tomorrow

morning. Now go to bed, please.

Good night.

Good night, darling.

Oh, and thank you for calling me.

- Here's yourtoothbrush, Mr. Dante.

- Thank you.

Oh, Justine, would you please take this

gentleman's money? - Certainly, mama.

Here's the change.

Thank you, good day.

Good day.

Where are you

putting that thing?

Here, madame, so it's ready

when they come to pick it up.

Papa didn't leave my allowance.

Can l help myself? - What's the hurry?

Must it be...

right now?

Well, l'm meeting Monique and we

thought we'd see a movie. - l see.

Well, l don't think l have enough money,

darling. l'm sorry, l need change for...

forthe customers.

Do you understand? l'm sorry.

Yes, l understand. l understand

perfectly. Papa will give it to me.

Wasn't it funny?

Armand...

Please, that's enough.

Why don't you leave me alone?

Why do you torture me like this?

What have l done to you?

What is it you want, a scandal?

That was Justine!

She's my daughter!

She's my daughter,

do you understand that?

What is it you want?

ls it money?

That must be it, money.

You have no sense ofhumor.

Anyone evertell you that?

Even your shop girl

is more amusing.

Well, ifit isn't money,

then what is it you want?

What is it? Why?

And you, madame?

What do you want?

Justine, what did you mean

by "l understand"?

What have you understood?

l'm talking to you, darling.

What was there to understand?

- Nothing, mama.

l asked for my allowance, you said you

couldn't give me it and l understood.

l'll probably borrow

the money from Monique

and pay her back when

papa comes home.

Well, you haven't

understood a thing.

l couldn't give you the money at

that moment because l was busy.

And you won't have to borrow

the money from anybody. Here.

When's papa coming home?

l don't know. Soon, l hope.

And now she sends me

to run her errands!

Do this, go there, buy that.

lt never stops!

Who does she think l am?

l was engaged here...

- As a clerk!

You ought to try hustling instead.

You're better qualified forthat.

lfit was work, then l

wouldn't enjoy it anymore!

You also seem to forget...

that l'm a registered nurse.

But, the thing is, with sick people,

they make me...

And, besides,

Charles is against it!

He doesn't like the idea of all those

bed pans and enemas...

and all those otherthings

a nurse has to do, you know?

But if your patients aren't sick,

then he doesn't mind, hmm?

Good old Charles is just worried about

his health! - No! He's always jealous!

You don't understand

anything, Armand.

l love my husband!

Just because you and l...

Carmen, for heaven's sake,

there's no reason why...

ls she coming back, now?

- ... argue all the time!

- But, madame, it's not...

What for?

- Come!

- No! You can't! The potatoes!

What's got into you?

Not here! Are you crazy?

She'll find us!

l know what she'll find!

Have you lost your mind?

You'll get us fired!

- You want to bet on that?

You're crazy, big boy!

Madame!

lt was Armand! He made me!

Hey, what are you talking about?

Don't be afraid.

Don't worry, Juliette. The madame won't

fire you. You know why? Shall we guess?

Because if she fires you, she would

have to fire me. Right, madame?

ln fact, she doesn't want to.

lsn't that true, madame?

You see, Juliette, madame needs me.

Of course, she's afraid of scandal.

Madame is a respectable lady.

But she's even more

afraid oflosing me.

Where do you think you're going?

l'm leaving!

No, you're staying right here!

Don't underestimate her, Juliette.

She's a bit worn out...

but she's not bad, really.

Maybe her skin doesn't glow

the way it did when she was 20.

There's some wrinkles here...

and here.

Hertits sag,

but only a little bit.

But here! Ah, here

she's nice and firm!

And her belly... it's just fine!

lt's fantastic!

Maybe one ortwo signs of fat...

You know she only had the

one daughter, you understand?

You're a bastard, Armand!

Leave her alone!

Come here! Come here,
