Vive la France Page #4

Synopsis: Muzafar and Feruz are two good-hearted shepherds from Taboulistan... a tiny country in Central Asia that no one has ever heard of. In order to bring his country into the international limelight, the son of the Tabouli president decides to try terror "advertising" and entrusts the two shepherds, more naive than evil, with the mission of a lifetime: destroying the Eiffel Tower! To meet their objective, they have to move through the most hostile territory imaginable: France! A France far different from the West they had heard described: Corsican nationalists, over-zealous policemen, dishonest taxi drivers, violent sports fans, crabby employees, unfriendly waiters, Kafkaesque administrations and medical malpractice... they are spared nothing. Luckily they meet Marianne, a young and pretty reporter who mistakes them for illegal aliens and helps shows them another face of France... a hospitable, magnificent and generous land where the living is easy. Vive la France!

As if someone put in glass

Let's get serious now.

Nanette's sausage and bean hotpot!

With cutlery.

Well?

In the eyes!

Is it good?

Very good.

Don't give them any more drink...

Long live grape juice!

France best cooking in world!

Just a second, Moustache Man,

It's not France yet?

When's France?

This is the Southwest.

Yes, it's different.

Here we have fun, we live...

We have Cantal,

Brie and goat's cheese.

Poor Dada.

Thank you.

Best eating in all my life.

Thank you, Marianne, but now

we must go Paris.

Not just yet.

After the feast, we fight the flab.

Fight who?

This game is weird.

Marianne, what we do here?

- We must leave!

- Just a minute.

You can't refuse.

Go eat stones!

Run!

To the left!

He's one of us

He's soiled his shirt

Muzafar, rugby's new man

Despite his tiny organ

Pin dick!

Marianne!

Marianne, enough!

Stop now!

Enough. I want to go Paris.

One last drink and we'll go.

Do you know Armagnac?

Don't know it.

There's nothing stronger.

Waiter! Three Armagnacs.

Wait. In the eyes!

Again!

It's...

- It's interesting.

- Yes.

I must tell you something too.

I love you, Muzafar.

I going to give you little kiss!

Don't touch, that's bad!

What you want to say?

Feruz...

I love you too.

We show them what dance is!

It's the Tawa!

That much?

I thought that was the date!

I'll teach you

another great French tradition.

The dine and dash.

What is?

Well...

First you drink...

Then you take your things...

And then... you run!

Marianne!

Hey, you!

That's Bastille Day!

Where we go?

What you do?

A midnight dip!

Come on...

It's not deep.

It's interesting.

I have one last French specialty

to show you...

You have?

What is it?

It's called a "mnage trois".

I'm too tired to manage anything.

Three managers work faster.

Many hands make light work.

That's true.

Room service.

Uncle found us a car.

They may be looking for my van.

I'll just say goodbye.

Ok, you lovebirds?

Get moving!

Feruz, wake up.

We must go Paris. Dress!

Good morning.

Not good morning!
