War of the Buttons Page #3

---

How is your father?

Tell him

Ill pass by tonight.

Go and play, children.

Good evening!

It seems that we are inseparable.

Two glasses of the same red wine.

It brings no good.

This continuous cheating.

And he?

- The teacher? Insignificant.

And Simon?

Simone is a beautiful

plant. I would like to water,

Prune her and cultivate her

so she maintains her best.

In Paris, she had all the men

wound around her little finger.

And willingly.

It's true.

How do you know all this?

Were you there?

Do not start, Mr. Teacher.

These women are not for us.

They are looking for wealthy men.

Gentlemen! Calm down, calm down!

You know this is a sensitive matter!

- Don't we live in a free county?

No, no!

You have lost your head.

You are not seeing clearly.

Brochard was asking about you.

What questions?

- Have you...

Left bank. Prior to the war.

Of course, I said 'no. '

I would keep quiet if I were you.

He has provided for you

Thanks for the advice.

A lost battle does not mean

that the war is over.

You already said that.

- Yes?

We will win, when they no longer have

a single button.

This is our only goal.

Buttons, buttons and more buttons.

Forward for the glory of Zeus!

Death to Velronians!

Run!

Death! Death to Velronians!

Yes! This is now called a

Greek victory.

The museum can be instructive.

Let's go home!

Death!

Death to Velronians!

I'll smear you in a frying pan!

Death to Velronians!

Wait for me!

Cold in may?

It's Greek.

What are the Greeks?

- We fought like Greeks.

If you know what I mean.

You're still angry about

that time, Lebrac?

Don't worry, Im tough.

What are you reading?

The Punic wars?

Is that a war full of garbage

and debris?

No, it was a war between Rome

and cartage in antiquity.

Similar to the Greeks?

I'll lend it to you if you want.

Just don't lose it, it is my mother's and

I cherish it because of her.

And where are your parents?

They stayed in Brittany.

I'm going. Happy reading.

Punic wars.

Check it out!

Are you interested in the

Punic wars?

Currently, I am most

interested in the strategy.

Ii I can steal something

from the Punics...

Ill show you Punics...

go inside.

You read all the time.

You still have meningitis.

Go get eggs.

Landing subdivisions of allies strike

blows against the Germans everywhere,

Especially behind

the German lines...

you heard what my mother said?

These marines are heroes.

Not like some others.

Have some respect. - Each to his

own profession. I grow potatoes.

With people like you, "fritz" will

still be in power for another hundred years.

Well, of course. - When Im old enough,

Ill be a paratrooper.

I can't stand the krauts.

He can't stand them.

Mr. Muscles.

Here

Don't slam the door.

Who's there?

- It's me, Paul.

Sorry Im so late.

Daddy gave me eggs and pate.

Too much for me alone.

We just ate.

But come on.

It can't always be easy for...

for what?

- For groceries.

You do not have a vegetable garden.

We do not starve. Sometimes customers

pay with a rabbit or a chicken.

I save my best.

Of course! I did not mean

to offend you.

I still can bite, as you noticed.

It is logical. These are hard times.

Not for everyone.

What do you mean?

- It is going on four years.

What's so surprising?

All adapt. You, too.

Say what you mean

if you think me a coward.

And if you know people from

the 'resistance' - Ask them too.

There are many ways to resist.

Okay, thank you. It's getting late. And

I still need to prepare for my lessons.

It is but wasted effort.

It has always been so between us.

- No, not always.

Good night?

Yes, good night.

This is not the case.

In Sparta

only the fittest survived.

I'd like to see him.

What's so funny, Lebrac?

I would also like to laugh.

Bacaille would not last 5 minutes

in Sparta.

Quiet!

I'm sick of

your stupid jokes.

You act like a clown.

Three hours of detention on Thursday.

Serves you right!

- And you too, Bacaille!

Just because your father

is the mayor, does not mean

You are exempt from punishment. Get in!

With all due respect, sir,

Don't you find,

that the punishment is a bit too cruel?

In the first place, the criminal

does not have a right to speak.

And secondly,

you stay after the others.

How are we going to fight

the Velronians?

Arithmetic. Page 54.

I'll wave the white flag?

And if they do not accept a truce?

We are only three.

We will not fight.

Do not talk to my brother, stupid.

I just wanted to say, stupid.

- Shut up, little man.

I have grown two inches this month.

Look it's long Vernes

Guess what?.. We've been looking

for you.

You found us, slap c*cks.

- We have a note from Lebrac.

'Since there are only three of us,

we do not fight today,

But next Thursday instead '.

Do you agree?

No.

What did you write about

the Garonne?

Shut up. Faster!

Camus! Like I said, no fighting.

They probably don't know

about the white flag.

I managed to slip away.

But the brothers grabbed Gibus.

- If Im not there...

Lebrac, stop!

Go home naked.

Now you don't talk so much, eh?

- Lebrac makes you wonder.

Oh, Lebrac show us.

That's it.

One... two... three!

Or, we will cut more than the knots?

Scared, yes?

You squeeze him, huh?

Get it!

Get him!

Nice to see you.

I've been expecting you.

Are you crying, little brother?

- No.

Did I cry?

- No.

Then do as we do.

Men do not cry.

See you later.

- Yeah.

Go on, Ill catch up.

What happened? - It the Velronians.

I wanted to rescue Gibus.

But it was a trap. There were a

hundred people, and I was caught.

Did you catch hell when you got home?

I got the belt.

I'm used to it.

The belt?

Come on, I have an idea.

- Do not keep it in your head.

Let's go!

- No, really.

Let's go!

- No.

I took it from the stock of Simon.

They are all different.

So be ready.

It looks weird.

It will be the latest fashion.

Like in Paris.

...and now the pants.

No!

- Come on.

I can't watch.

Here

Did you cry?

- Me? Bah! It's not my style

I saw my father cry once.

But I still love him.

Would you love me,

if I cried?

I have no idea.

Cry, then we'll find out.

Hurry up!

Are you okay?

- Yes.

What are you doing?

I was counting the buttons.

- You were counting the buttons?

For what reason?

It was for me.

She sewed my buttons again.

Like in Paris.

Like in Paris?

What does that have to do with anything?

It would take too long to explain.

My parents are waiting.

Thanks for everything.

Violet, what were you doing with that boy?

- Nothing.

You let him enter here,

sewed his buttons...

his father beats him.

Unbelievable... is that all?

No, not all.

We will be married in august.

Good evening.

Do you know how much time it's been already?

You know what?

I do not have a watch.

- Is the bell for the deaf?

What is it?

Answer the question.

- Cool, huh? It's fashionable in Paris.

In Paris, it's fashionable!

He was laughing at us.

He used to think Im an idiot!

- And he still does.

Go to bed. Without dinner.
