Why I can not sell?

For example, what is this?

- This is a brooch.

- How much?

- 100,000 francs!

- 100,000 francs for a brooch?

And you don't want me to sell you a piece of

English fabric brought straight from London.

It would look good with your green face.

You want me to get duped!

You do not understood, this is a robbery!

- Stop the thief ...

- Stop him!

- Let me go!

- Where are you going? Catch him!

I saved a brooch.

Here's your brooch!

Thank you!

You have been a real hero.

What can I do to show my gratitude?

Call the taxi, please!

I think I broke my arm.

THE NEXT DAY:

What pleasure to see you again, sir!

Come in, please!

- How's your arm. Hurts a lot?

- It's nothing ...

- Go get a brandy! Have a seat, please.

- Thanks a lot!

I came to buy that brooch

which attracted me so much.

Here it is!

The brooch that you defended with such a courage.

It's beautiful! What was the price?

As this is for your account and consided

what happened ... 80,000 francs.

It's like free...

You'd accept my cheque, of course...

Honestly, in present time, we do not ...

But in your case ..

No problem... You do not trust.

So many thiefs around... No problem...

I will send the driver to bring my money.

I write a note to my wife.

Right away, sir!

Please...

- Maybe I should write.

- It would be very kind of your

- Tell!

- Mon Cherie! My wife is French!

Please, give the new drives, 80,000 francs...

...to make a big surprise to you.

I'm done. Kisses...

No, no!

How do you end the letter

when you write to your wife?

- "Your kitty"!

- No...! "Your kitty"! I like!

Very nice!

- Your kitty ...

- Parmenio!

- And I'm called Parmenio.

- No ... ! What's a coincidence!

Parmenio ...

- Abdullah!

-What do you want, boss?

When wife of a jeweler saw negro

she wanted to call her husband.

But she couldn't because the phone

was not working. I cut the wires.

We paid for the brooch with jeweler's money!

Now it's all over the papers.

How we gonna sell it, wise guy?

Felix has thought of everything.

We must find an idiot with money.

There are many of them.

I will use Mecheria trick.

- What is that Mecheria?

- Master always looks stupid.

I put it on number 13!

Again on 13.

- Now ...

- I won!

I won!

Today is my lucky day!

All the money is ours.

Thank you! I'm sorry,

I'm so excited ...

Let's go home, quickly.

- You were formidable.

- I like when you so excited.

- Change our chips, please!

- Right away, sir!

So beautiful.

I'm happy ... !

My wife had such a luck...

- 13 always brings me luck.

- Look at all this money ...

- I buy rings.

- Of course!

Excuse me, ma'am!

It must be yours.

- That?

- Yes, the brooch!

Madame must have dropped it,

when you cashed the chips.

- Suits you.

- I do not understand anything.

Do not be silly!

I lost it at the exchange, haven't you heard?

Give the man a tip! Faster!

Thank you!

But I didn't do it for money.

I said no!

It was a gesture of fairness.

Go!

Thank you!

How happy I am! Want to ruin everything.

When did you become honest?

A moment! Inspector Valadieu!

Anti-fraud squad!

- I don't understand!

- We arrested a counterfeiter.

We need a witness.

It takes only one minute. Come with me!

- We have nothing to do...

- Come with me!

- I think that is a misunderstanding.

- I need to ask some questions.

- I swear, Inspector! I was not ...

- Shut up!

Did you give him any money?

- I never seen him before.

- I never gave him anything.

- What are you saying: never?

- I never seen him before.

- You are a thief and a felon.

- Calm down!

- Calm down?

- Why did you slap him?

- She's my wife.

- If she wasn't a women I'd beat her up.

- Quiet!

- Inspector! You have no right. I was insulted!

What are you doing? Now I got slapped.

They gave me money

when I gave them a brooch.

- What brooch?

- That one! Look!

I want you to see it!

A brooch was stolen yesterday.

They write about in the newspaper.

You are all arrested for

theft and fraud.

- Face the wall!

- Do not move. He is very violent inspector.

Inspector! What are you doing?

Let's see! You have something underneath...

Little bit ...

And you buddy ... ? What's this?

Not enough.

Turn around!

Where is the weapon?

And where these false notes came from?

We won in roulette.

He won in roulette!

- On what number?

- 13. Three times!

- 39!

- Shut up!

And brooch.

I bet you she had won it in a beauty contest!

Give me the brooch!

Our experts will determine if money are false or not.

All three of you are arrested.

Sergeant, announce to all the sections!

No need to surround the building anymore.

And wait for me.

You'll take me back to the police station.

- Nobody moves!

- What do we do?

Go! Go!

Get out!

What happened?

- Charlotte!

- Do not tell me that you were robbed.

- Where am I?

- Go, get the money! Thieve!

- Come back!

Wait for me!

No one ever cheated on me twice.

Give the money or I kick you in the...

- You have no guts!

- There is always the first time.

- Let me go! You do not understand?

- I want to know where is my money.

Where did you put them?

You put your hands on them!

Look slightly to the right!

- Wait!

- Stop! You're in my target.

Are not you ashamed?

Rob defenseless girl.

What defenseless little girl?

What statue spoke?

Statue of truth and justice.

Give her the money back.

Excuse me!

I think I fall in love with you.

I love you! It is the first

time I do not lie.

I hope you do not mind, Daddy?

What is this?

Dad?

- Yes! Why not?

- Dad?

Dad!

You mean that bimbo ...

She's your daughter?

- Exactly! Daughter of Philip Bang!

- I understood that you are Philip Bang...

...but behind that look, hides a killer ...

Be careful how you talk!

It's not true.

Charlotte is not a criminal.

At the moment, she helps this operation.

- What's wrong with that?

- She works for Belle Duke!

She played that game only to

help me escape. Clear?

You want to persuade someone to

see white which is actually black.

It's simple.

That money is for preliminary work.

Wait, I'll explain.

I propose to work together.

Really, an honest deal!

You have a talent, but you do not have enough style.

I'll take you as an apprentice.

How do you like the idea?

I will find a way to get rich without you.

You're wonderful, Felix!

You dance lovely! Do not forget,

you owe me other seven charlestons.

Seven charlestons!

- Felix. Come, dance with me?

- I'm sorry, I'm tired!

Listen to me, fool!

I worry about your future.

You do not want to be a gigolo for whole life!

What kind of player are you?

Play a hand, lose and leave!

Now it's time to rise the bet.

It's easy to play when you have all the aces.

Only the great players know how to bluff!

Make your opponent to believe that

you have a good hand, but you only have two eights.

It's something else to play cards without

good hand and to defeat them all.

To win the game with two eights!

- So, bluff is bluff!

- What about divide?
