Hi Ronald, I'm in front of the house.

I don't know...

Okay, see you in a sec. Bye, bye.

Hello.

Sorry I'm late, but we’ve just had a baby.

And I'm a little bit out of sorts.

Come on in. -And where's Ronald?

He had to leave in a rush. Some problems at the publisher's.

But he'll be back in two days. -When?

In two days. But come on in.

Thank you.

Sorry.

Fuck!

Excuse me.

The alarm has to stay on.

Cars get stolen in broad daylight around here.

Where are the children? -At the beach, I expect.

The children's rooms are up here. Monsieur's is on the right.

Mademoiselle, the guest room is this way.

Voila!

Nice, isn't it?

Did you manage to reach Rom ald? -No, not yet.

Would you tell the children not to use the pool before morning?

It's poisonous. -Yes, of course.

Have a good day. -Thanks.

Goodbye. -Goodbye.

The hat belonged to my mother.

I'm sorry. I didn't know.

Doesn't help, does it?

Hi, Emma.

So... how are you doing?

I'm not going to spend my vacation on doing maths.

No problem. It's up to you.

So, you are Felix.

Nice to finally meet you.

I'll call you from the other phone, the reception is poor.

Ronald Zirner. Please leave a message.

Could you come over here?

Could you come?

Okay, if VW has sold 37 percent more than in the previous year,

how much is 100 percent?

So...

1.06 million.

No, 1.06 million is 37 percent more than 100 percent.

So 137 percent. -Exactly.

If 1.06 million is 137 percent, how much is 1 percent?

1,060,000 divided by 137. -Exactly.

That's really lovely.

Where did you get it?

It was a present.

We item'?

7,737 cars. -Exactly. That's it.

Now this one.

You've got quite a tan.

It's important to you, isn't it?

Excuse me, is this disturbing you?

To be honest, yes.

No problem. I'll do it later.

Thank you.

No! Please don't. -But I'm happy to help.

No, don't worry. I'm paid by the hour.

Any dirty laundry for me? -No, thank you.

And what are you writing?

A book.

What's it about?

A female botanist in the 19th century.

But I'm really interested in how things get their names,

how language evolves.

And the story?

The story?

It will be a simple one.

That's not the problem.

Have a look!

That was Mrs Zirner.

Beautiful eyes, right?

Do sit down.

Felix, that's Sandrine. I'm sure you'll get along. Have fun.

Fuck! There are snakes here!

Shit, I almost peed on one.

Let me see that!

A snake?

Where?

Next to the tree.

Be careful!

Look in the holes!

Still awake?

You make these weird gestures with your mouth.

I must have copied someone.

It's Emma's birthday tomorrow.

Ronald is coming later. -ls he?

He has ordered a Tropézienne. Could you pick k up?

When did he call? -Odd he hasn't called you.

Too bad for him.

I need to go to bed.

Where is the bakery?

Down at the harbor. Frodeau, can't miss it.

Finally, I take...

I'm not sure about the color. -Oh, yeah?

Now then...

Then?

I don't know yet.

Take your time.

Like something to drink? Some water, a coffee?

No, thank you.

Or... maybe a glass of water.

Good.

Hello. -How are you?

Your daughter? -Yes, Nathalie.

Are you well? -Yes.

Thanks.

Sorry.

So?

Hey, you know how to cook.

Well, only this one dish.

But it makes an impression, right?

God, these kids!

What else did I want?

That's pretty.

Let me have a look.

What will you give Emma? -Only a token.

Where's the cake?

I forgot it.

You must be kidding. It's her favourite!

There'll be tears, if she doesn't get it.

Ronald ordered it especially. -Yes, all right.

Could you turn down the heat in three minutes. I'll be right back.

Forget it. Look at the time.

Sorry, we're closed. -I just want to pick up an order.

It still won't go through.

Alright...

I'll give you cash.

I've got 24 euros 50 cents.

I'll give you the rest on Monday.

But the cake was ordered for today.

It's payment on delivery here.

Do you know Mr Zirner? -Not personally.

Very well...

Shall we call him?

What for?

Please. It's a little girl's favourite. lt has to be yours.

Or there'll be tears.

I don't think so.

Sorry? -I don't believe you.

Excuse me Miss, I'm tired. I've had a long day.

If you don't leave now, I'll throw you out.

Go to the supermarket!

They have cheaper ones and have longer hours.

That's no good for me.

You want me to call the police?

Merle, look... what Felix is watching on the internet.

Give it back!

It's not my fault you haven't fucked yet.

Give it to me!

You'll never get a girl! Your mates are way ahead.

Asshole. -Stop making that face!

I'll be black and blue.

Damn.

Emma?

Not interested.

Have a look.

It's almost midnight.

Is it from...? -Hmm.

Come on.

Could you turn up the TV?

We hardly hear ourselves think.

What have we got here?

Am I spotting a smile?

Happy Birthday.

What's wrong?

Go on, answer it.

He's watched more TV today than I did all my life.

Did you go to a Steiner school?

Did you?

So you can dance your name.

Okay.

But only if you dance yours.

No!

Hey.

Not that great.

Yes, indeed.

She can't talk to you right now.

Okay, I'll try.

Thing is...

She's sick.

She drank too much.

No, really too much. She's...

It just happened. I was in town and...

She didn't want to come with me.

Judging by the way she looks she's drunk all your Aperol.

And what do we have here?

I thought about calling a doctor, but...

Know a good one?

He's not around.

He went out with this guy called Fifi.

I underestimated Felix.

If those girls weren't hookers...

Emma, say something.

Your father is worried. Emma.

No chance at all. Maybe...

Don't shout at me.

Good to know.

I'd like to end the call now.

Is he nuts?

Are you alright?

Don't take it personally. He's like that.

I also had to take a lot from him.

Felix?

I've got breakfast. -We're off to the beach club.

Don't know if you can join us. You have to be a member.

No need for me to come. I'm happy to work in peace.

I could try... give them a call.

No big deal. Honestly.

Okay then.

Bye. -Bye.

Have fun. -Ronald is on his way.

He'll be here this evening.

Ronald Zirner. Please leave a message.

Hello. -Hello.

Ronald isn't in? -No.

Felix or Emma? -No.

Excuse me.

We live next door and we've locked ourselves out.

Oh, come in. -Thank you.

Are you German? -Yes.

We can speak German then.

Good evening.

Good evening. I'm Daniel. -Merle.

Are the children out on the scooter? -Yes.

Oh, poor things.

I put the fish in the fridge. Remind me, won't you?

May I? -Sure.

Would you like one? -No, thanks.

Or... maybe later.

Don't you want to change into something dry?

No need.

Ronald works too much.

Do you think so? -He always did.

Take that out onto the terrace. Ronald can't stand it.

I did ask.

Sorry for that.

Does the locksmith know we're here? -He'll call on arrival.

She's pretty, isn't she? -Yes.

What are you doing here, if I may ask? -I write.

We often work with Ronald's publishing house.

Lately...

'Tim's catalogue?

That's a while ago.

Okay.

You guys are soaked through.

I wanted to take shelter, but...

Hi! Excuse me a minute. I'll be right with you.

Why are you here? -Our new locking system...

is a bit too effective.

Not even we can get in. -Serves you right if you get robbed.

Hi Felix... -Oh, come on!

What about a match tomorrow? -No way!

You weren't bad last time. -No thanks.

You call yourself Algerian?

You are an asshole!

Sorry, it's for Mademoiselle.

Sorry.

You're on holiday?

And you?

I work round here, with my colleagues over there.

And what do you do? -We're robots.

We assemble printed circuit boards and check them before packaging.

It's pretty monotonous.

There must be something you like about it, no?

The money.

I'm by myself. I like that.

What do your circuit boards look like?

A pattern of conductive traces... Looks like a city.

So... you build entire cities all by yourself.

If you put it that way...

That's true.

That's enough! Off you go.

Come on! Get out!

I spit on people like you!

Don't touch me, please!

IDs please! -We didn't do anything, let us go.

What's the problem man? -Are you smoking dope?

You know it's forbidden.

You can't do whatever you like.

You better go home now.

Anyone there?

Somebody there?
