From other point of view...

...to simulate...

A gun!

You are interested in our new

mixers?

Will you come again?

Hey you!

Freeze!

Don't move! You are under arrest!

- What happened?

- He tried to escape, but l was

really fast.

How did you know, he is a fake

Santa Claus?

How many Santa Clauses have a gun

with them?

- A gun! How did you know?

- He let it fall, the fool.

- What a fool.

- Yes, silly fool.

Let's go to the commissariat.

Hello boss! Look who is here...

Sh*t! He is gone...

Lock up the nippers to the chair.

The boss is not here. Let's say,

that l am the boss...

- How do l look?

- Don't do that, he could be somewhere

here...

He is gone. lf he comes, l'll

take care...

Trust me!

Well Santa Claus. l know your

name. Tell me, how did you get

a police gun?

Did you steal it?

Find his address.

l'll try this book.

Any time you forget something,

my colleague will help you to

remember.

Did you see? He's professional.

You know, there is a registration

number here...

l'll enter it in the computer,

and l'll know the name ofthe

owner in one minute.

That fool! He stole the gun

from Giber!

- lmpossible!

- l swear. Take a look!

Did you know, that you have stole

this from the police chief?

Have you got an explanation?

He don't.

Do you think, he can speak

with sticking plaster on the

mouth?

You are right. Remove it.

Emilien?

Commissar?

Somebody calls me outside.

- What are you doing dressed like that?

- l am doing myjob, Emilien. l put on

these clothes to penetrate in thegang of Santa Claus.

But as usual you screw everything.

Sorry boss. l...

But why you didn't warn us.

We could disguise as Santa

Claus too.

Because it was individual precise

action. But don't worry.

l'll give you a special costume and

a truncheon. You could train on the

street.

- And now, would you unlock me!

- Of course commissar.

Damn it!

Alain got the keys.

- Hurry up Emilien.

- 5 minutes boss.

- Are you the commissar Giber?

- Not yet.

l mean, l am not yet a commissar,

and unfortunately my name is not

Giber.

- l mean, mostly my name is not

Giber.

- The keys Emilien!

ln a minute boss.

Are you the commissar Giber?

Yes. What can l do for you?

Good afternoon.

My name is Qiu.

Qiu, Qiu, what a nice name Qiu.

And what a nice queue you have!

ls this a chinese name?

Yes. My mother is chinese, and

my father - swiss.

l know very well Switzerland.

l am a journalist from World

lnternational Magazine.

l have to write an article about

the French police.

l want to follow closely the work

ofthe big commissars, and l heard,

you are the biggest.

That's right. 1 ,90 meters are too

many even for a policeman.

How impressive.

Yes. Sometime l make an impression

to myself.

- Can l ''stick'' on you for few days?

- All my life, ifyou want.

l mean, as long as needed

to make your article.

And you'll see how l work on

investigations.

Thanks a lot. Can we start?

With pleasure.

- Thank you.

- Don't mention it.

What are you doing dressed

like Santa Claus in your

office?

Eh? This! This is a camouflage.

We are trying to catch a gang,

disguised as Santa Claus.

Dressed like that, we can penetrate

into it.

- And what are the nippers for?

- They are note mine.

An other question?

Come in.

- Do l disturb you?

- Nothing can disturb me anymore.

l see you are alone in the office,

you have nothing special to do,

and l would talk to you for 5minutes.

No Petra, lt's not the time.

Can we talk at home?

At home you think only about

your work. l thought in the office...

...we could discuss some domestic

problems.

Not today Petra.

Just not today.

Since 8 months you repeat ''Just

not today''

Listen, l am in the big shits,

don't do that to me...

What more happened after this

morning?

l caught a Santa Claus.

Santa Claus with a gun.

l thought he was from the gang.

- You don't need a Santa Claus or a gun

to think like that.

You always think about that.

- Yes, but there were both - a Santa Claus

and a gun.

l did it instinctively.

- And you disarmed him by yourself?

- Yes.

- Then everything is OK.

Absolutely not. lt was Giber.

OK, laugh at me.

l can lose myjob and you

are laughing...

- And what do you expect?

- Help me to relax.

Say something nice.

The good news help a lot.

Emilien! l am pregnant.

- No!

- Yes! Are these good news?

Of course. Since when?

- Since 8 months Emilien.

- No. -Yes

- How it happened?

- The Saint Spirit came to me

l saw the changes, but...

And your breasts...

...this is the reason to became so...

My God! Will you keep it?

- lt's too late for other decisions.

- Certainly.

- But why you didn't tell me?

- l try since 8 months.

l put cauliflower in all

the rooms.

- l was wondered what does it mean.

- Look, there are more than 20

echographic images on the wall.

There are everywhere.

- ls this my baby?

- For now it's mine.

lfyou want to take part, you have

to wake up!

ls the baby normal?

Good question, ifyou know the

father...

but yes, it's normal.

- lfyou are pregnant,

you'll keep the baby, and it's

normal...

then l'll became a father?

- Yes. Good conclusion.

- You should work at the police.

- l'll be a daddy.

Yes. And this child will need

a super-daddy.

Count on me Petra,

Count on me.

Lily!

What a fool you are.

You changed a car, for the woman

you love..

Fast test?

What fast test?

Two bars. What is this?

- Good afternoon. -Hello.

- Could you tell me what is this?

Just a moment.

Fast pregnancy test.

Was the prophylaxis efficacious?

l don't know.

You tell me.

Just a moment. l have to check

something.

We finished the blue condomes.

You know, a blue condome

and a baby. Women adore these

kind of presents.

Do l need a blue condom like a

present?

l have to ask my daughter.

She studies pharmacy, and she knows

the names of all the medicines by

heart. She is so impressive...

Angel! What does it mean?

l am sorry daddy! l was so

careful, l swear...

But l had nothing for protection.

Darling! lt's full of preservatives.

Why you didn't take some?

- There wasn't his size.

- Who did it to you?

- l don't know?

- You don't know? He has no name,

this young man?

l told you, l was drunk! l couldn't

remember all the names.

Good Lord!

Come on. Marry Christmas.

Every one, listen to me.

l am explaining, what we have to

do against the Santa Claus gang.

Me myself, l made a perfect

individual action, unfortunately

upset by Emilien.

But this is in the past. Let take

a look on the future.

We'll do all, that we have to do

tomorrow, starting today.

Don't write that.

lt's a little bit complicated.

l don't like the misunderstandings.

- The nonsenses start...

- Yes, he's genius.

- What was l talking about? -The plan...

- Yes, the plan of action.

And l won't accept mistakes anymore.

Don't write that.

l want everything to be ''clean''!

''Super-clean''!

Last summer l was on a training
