Idiots!

Nothing stolen from the port.

Bingo!

- What? It just means you were wrong.

Why wasn't the theft declared?

'Cause they use the warehouse

as a base!

You can be real smart!

General alert!

- No, Emilien. That's always my line.

Explain it to me once more.

I'm on my way!

You watching TV?

No, l stopped. There was a report

on animal sex. l burned the rug!

Lilly's worried.

Give me that.

Tell your mom it's OK,

but l need to commandeer your friend.

He did a great job. Good recruit.

He'll bring me home.

You can say goodnight then. Bye, hon.

C'mon, let's go.

The mission's not over.

What's Gibert up to?

l dunno. He's been in the john for ages,

making weird noises.

What's up?

- l can't tell you. It's... too horrible!

They won't come.

- What?

l think this was their 1st base.

They're gone. Long gone.

Suspect approaching.

Asian male.

They always return to the crime scene!

Police Academy, lesson 1! Positions!

Captain?

Suspects approaching front door.

Perfect!

I'm ready for 'em!

Hey, you sure about this?

What?

It's the heist of the century!

There's a mountain of VCRs,

boxed and awaiting delivery!

They're about to break in.

We got 'em!

- Emilien! You break in to your home?

Sure.

- Oh yeah?

Well, no.

Uh-oh!

Chief, are you gonna...?

l like to stay close to my men.

Some action won't hurt me.

Just like in the old days!

It was long ago.

- The memory is distant.

But the reflexes...

are still intact!

Believe me.

Thanks!

Sure there's no cops?

- Relax, dammit! There's no one here!

They're all watching the game.

Every cop's in front of a TV.

Ready to attack?

Wait for my signal.

You worry me.

It's a long way down.

It's OK. Tie the knot.

I'll do the rest.

Uh-oh.

See? They're all

at the match, like l said!

Attack!

Sh*t!

Emilien?

- OK, chief.

Bonzai!

Someone being knifed?

The knot's all right.

- Yeah.

Maybe the rope.

You got the wrong one.

- You're right.

Ambulance! Now!

l should never have left her

or let him down.

That's enough crying over spilled milk.

It won't bring her back. Think!

l am! But we don't have

a single lead to go on!

Ask the right questions.

Why didn't the Yakuza kill him at once?

- They need him?

Why? Did they ask for a ransom?

- No.

Why kidnap him here?

They must have had a good reason.

Why's he going to Paris?

To sign contracts.

Security, trains, army, nuclear.

There! Maybe they want to stop him.

-Makes no sense. Why do that?

He's right.

Yuki Tsumoto wants to stop him.

l know you.

Weren't you an air hostess before?

I'm here to protect the Secretary.

I'm in counter-espionage.

Funny! l too am.

I'm in counter-espionage.

That's Daniel.

- Intern. I'm learning to be stupid!

Clever!

Who's this Yuki Tsumoto?

Yakuza. Controls the north.

Powerful and conservative.

Refuses airplanes, trains,

nuclear power.

As France is keen to sell,

he's taking steps.

The Secretary won't sign,

nor will Japan ever again!

Tsumoto sent over

The Secretary, when the time is right

will shoot someone.

Perhaps the President.

France will sever

all diplomatic ties for years?

Exactly.

- Crazy!

We must free your friend

and the Secretary before 11.

l better tell my boss.

- The cripple or Sleeping Beauty?

Listen.

You both got someone to save.

As we're in a rush, we better

not disturb the powers that be.

No?

- Right!

No Nip'll beat us! Pardon me!

Where do we start?

First, can you find them in Paris?

- No way!

Easy! Child's play!

Thanks, Joe. You saved my life!

See you soon, pal.

They're hiding out

in southern Paris.

Sure it's her? Uh, them!

with a blonde. OK?

To the airport!

- No plane for 3 hours.

We can't wait.

We must get there right away!

Get up! It's war!

Men!

- It's me, Daniel!

The troops?

- Wiped out! Just us to save the day.

You're indebted to me.

- Affirmative!

l need your help.

Sh*t! What 're they up to?

Cool, pal! Way to go!

l really hope you know

what you're doing, 'cause l don't!

Got a better idea?

- Right now? No.

Well, think fast!

l got it! Let me out.

- Too late!

Are you cool?

You bet! Cool as ice!

Just shout, OK?

OK, I'm shouting!

We lost a parachute!

There are 3.

Oh, right!

Got your license?

- Yes.

So, take over here.

C'mon, move!

I'll steer us.

- Where do l go?

Straight ahead.

Straight ahead? OK!

Come on, just relax.

Be more zen.

That's good. Real good.

Oh Lilly, you OK?

Who's the warbler?

- Air hostess.

No, a nurse!

You in a massage parlour?

- No way, Lilly!

We're in the sky.

Your dad's guiding us.

Emilien's steering,

I'm fixing a parachute...

the nurse is singing

to calm us down!

You smoke a tree?!

I'm trying to save

Petra and Japan's Secretary!

I'll call you when we land!

Goddammit!

You OK, hon?

- Just fine!

What a doubter!

Try to turn left a bit.

Now, turn left.

l repeat, left.

Hi there!

It's OK! Stay calm!

Marseille Police!

Move!

You know them?

- Yeah.

An old pupil.

Well, I'll walk home.

OK, Lionel?

- Jacques, Mr. Coutta.

Hello there.

All set, Coutta?

- Just Japan's Secretary to come.

l see her.

God, she's lovely!

l mean, she looks well.

The Secretary?

- Fine. He's exercising.

Maybe we should get 'em back.

- But we must warn your friend.

It won't be easy.

What a jerk l am!

- Really?

Her earphone!

Are you ready to kill?

You hear me?

We're not far away.

Get up...

and turn around.

Show me your hands.

What's going on?

- It's not me.

You suck!

- So do you!

Sit down. We're coming.

Easy to say!

- l got a plan.

That's what worries me!

You hear only what l tell you.

Only what l tell you.

You obey me.

You do only what l tell you.

l wanna go home!

'Cause it's cold

and I'm getting sick.

You're going to sleep.

Raise your arms.

Hey, it's my turn now!

Come on!

I'm not bad at hypnosis!

Sit!

Good!

Now lie down!

Very, very good!

Now sleep!

Freeze or you'll sleep, too!

OK, I'll cover you.

Hey, girls, what're you doing?

No need.

l had 'em covered.

It's not loaded.

What's that?

How come?

It was me.

l emptied the clip yesterday.

So... it was never loaded?

So you wouldn't get hurt.

I'm late.

Help me out!

It's OK, I'll manage.

Jump in there!

Are you sure?

l don't wanna fall down!

Catch those clowns!

Fancy some sushi?

No exit, Daniel!

Nips closing in!

One less!

We'll get out here.

We're too heavy.

They're good!

Ask your colleagues to help out.

Forget it.

Paris Police hate us.

You just never asked 'em politely!

What the... ?

You faggots not at the parade?

Soldiers ain't your thing? You'd rather

stay home and gobble knobs?

How 'bout a love parade?

Catch me if you can!

You went a bit far!

- Don't worry! They love it!

Catch him alive!

I'll kill him myself!

Where are you?

Where's Trocadero?

Change at Chatelet!

A bus!

Oh, the Eiffel Tower!

Off the grass!

Straight on!

OK!

There's one!

Get the taxi!

Kamikaze!

- Kami what?

l can't shake 'em!

We're too heavy!

I'll get out!

- No, try again!
