THE TRUTH IS, THERE IS NO TRUTH!

Here we go again. We'll hear the story of the famous Jean-Michel.

It's obviously difficult for Kad to talk about it.

And I wonder why?

Are these tears or myxomatosis?

I'm sorry, I don't know if I can talk about it. I'm sorry.

For real?

No, no. Shut up.

Freddy!

It's actually really difficult.

-No, I'm going to try. -I'm sorry.

-Do you want me to tell it? -No, I'd rather, it's going to…

So, he was called Jean-Michel.

He was my boss, he was a great guy.

He was crazy about jazz.

And he also had crazy ideas.

About skits.

And actually…

-Almost, not all of it… -He helped us a lot.

-"Jean-Michel," it's all him. -Really?

-"Jean-Michel Moreorless." -It's from him?

Why do you think it's called that?

The first singers were not called Jean-Michel, but Pascal or Bernard.

Jean, Serge Cafard.

It's only later that we decided to call them Jean-Michel.

We would be in his restaurant.

There would be jazz singers.

There was a guy who would sing like that.

And it started like that. He's the one who told us.

"Why don't you do a singer, that more or less sings songs?"

It's true. After that, we invented our own.

But he's the one who started it all.

He didn't want us to talk about him,

to invite him, on the radio, he didn't want to come.

So, he gave us ideas.

He's good, he's good.

Without him, we wouldn't be here.

The worst part of the story is that, in short…

At one point, he sold his restaurant and he moved to Guadeloupe.

He loved diving.

He went with his wife, Jocelyne.

-Jocelyne? -Jocelyne, yes.

He was married to a Guadeloupean woman.

-A Martinican? -Guadeloupean.

And as he was a diver, he had…

He died in a diving accident.

We never found out what happened, he was a great diver.

I want to melt into my chair, I don't feel well.

He's talking about someone that is dear to him.

There's no more game, we are listening to a man in pain.

It's difficult to say that.

I know, it's nervous.

I've laughed at the death of lots of people I know too.

If it's true, things took a messy turn at this point.

It's a great thing to experience.

It's great, a bit tense. I know that you have your doubts.

But what happened, he drowned?

He drowned. Why are you laughing? It's horrible.

It's not even funny.

That's why it's intimate.

It's because this idiot is asking if she's called Jocelyne.

I didn't hear.

She's called Jocelyne Dufils.

He was called Jean-Michel Dufils.

Oh, my, Kad.

I'm looking at his emotions.

Like, "I'm going to cry, excuse me, no, sorry, sorry."

So, we asked his wife…

We're telling you this because we asked Jocelyne.

And she said we could talk about it. She said, "It's fine."

"It's okay, it's a way to pay him tribute."

Jean-Michel Dufils. That's all.

-Thank you again, I'm sorry. -Very moving.

It's very difficult, because…

-It's poorly narrated. -I thought it was a joke.

No, I know, sorry.

Personally…

I think it's fake.

That's why I laughed.

-Why? -Something betrayed you.

You didn't cry.

-He did. -No, just now, you didn't cry.

-I didn't feel like crying. -Yes, but…

You took your glasses off.

-Yes, and? -You wanted to cry.

But he was emotional.

You took your glasses off, you were planning on crying.

-But it didn't come. -You are crazy.

Yes, it did. I'm right next to him. Really, he moved me.

Oulaya…

"It's so true." Okay, it's so true.

I don't believe it for one second. He's lying.

He's lying.

You were planning your emotion. He's a great actor.

He never cries.

Now you just do it on purpose to…

I swear, I believe you.

Oulaya, you will be disappointed.

He's not acting.

-I'm never acting. -He was acting.

-He wasn't acting. -I don't act.

-He was acting. -You can't fake that.

-When you're really moved… -It's not true, Oulaya.

No, no, no.

You can cry, but you can't…

Oulaya, he's a genius. I'm telling you, it's fake.

-She's being fooled. -No.

You would be fooled in real life.

-Not at all. -You should always be with an adult.

Guys, it's so fake.

I disagree, I'm sorry. I disagree.

ALONE AGAINST THE WORLD

The question we need to ask ourselves is,

did Kad give a legendary performance,

or was he moved and did he move us all

for the game, and it's legendary anyway?

-It's huge for the game. -It's a classic.

-What he did… -Insane.

And truthfully, the emotions were there.

I think…

GUY WITH A THINKING FACE

...if it really happened,

it's not possible to entertain with a death.

It's the death of someone that is very dear to them.

-It's not possible. -I get it.

But if you lie like that…

-I'm not. -You play with emotions.

I can't wait to get to the end of the show.

Yes, I want to get to the end.

I want to know if it's fake.

Telling this story it's difficult.

I'm more sensitive than Olivier, that's it.

-It's true. -I was in the army.

It's the story that stirred the most emotions.

Yes, we went through all the emotions.

Sadness, compassion, awkwardness, admiration.

We are all divided.

But it's an advantage.

So, what do we think of their stories?

Between the birth of the rhino, the Kwai River,

and Jean-Michel, the legendary Jean-Michel.

Or rather, "Rest in peace, Jean-Michel."

-Or Kad lied to us in peace. -I don't know.

I don't know if I should follow my gut.

Calm down.

-Mr. President. -Mrs. President.

In my office, we need to talk.

They're challenging us. Their questions are hardcore.

It was like an interrogation.

"What did you see?"

"What's the color of the police car?"

We need to keep up, damn.

-Give me five seconds. -Sure.

In truth, the rhino story…

Honestly, bro.

You know what made me laugh?

I love them, but…

I think Kad is a bit of an hypochondriac.

I don't see him going near a rhinoceros and put his hands inside.

Kad and O are the best storytellers.

But the story doesn't hold up.

The best credibility is a 5 out of 10.

For me, it's 50/50. It could very well be true.

-Their story is good. -It's magnificent.

It's funny. "Hi, Kadéo."

He killed us.

What size is the rhino?

-Busted. -What color?

-Purple. -Green!

Come on, get out of here.

-That... -Can you imagine, wait…

Maybe they made a mistake on purpose.

If they made a mistake on purpose,

-they're geniuses. -Yes.

They made you doubt with the River Kwai. Me too.

-The piece of paper, so-so. -The paper seemed fake.

Framed for the past ten years.

No dust, nothing, not a stain.

I have my doubts because of it.

I can't work out if it's a lie.

It could be true. I don't know what you think of it.

I'm very confused.

Nobody can keep a piece of paper in such good conditions.

There were constant warning signs that it was fake.

There was some truth.

The police was a lie. Jail!

-I don't believe it. -I don't know.

The bastards make us doubt.

I don't believe it.

It was not easy.

I think that using the death of someone,

it shows that it's fake. But, bro, I was crying.

-It's not believable, no? -Imagine, it's true.

Honestly, bro. I'm sure it's fake.

I'm lost.

They really moved me.

I don't buy it.

But it seems really good.

All right. Here, let's say that.

It's the end of the investigation into Kad and Olivier's stories.

It was not easy at all.

We are real professionals.

-They don't give enough details. -We give too many details.

Yeah, but it's all right.

I don't know how to lie.

Honestly, you break faster than Olivier.

You were so relaxed I believed it.

We had to look at people making faces.

Making faces.

If we go for appearances, there are no limits to the game.

Now, you do what you want. Come on, next.

-Who's next? -McFly and Carlito.

-We're ready. -We'll do it.

Sit over there.

We're gonna tell you.

-Please. -They're rowdy.

-Dear friends. -Go ahead.

-This first anecdote. -You couldn't say it.

Where do you put the "C?" And the "T", where is it?

-It's "agnedote." -Doesn't matter.

So, he might be stuttering a bit.

But we should give credit where credit is due.

Yeah. McFly and Carlito are huge professional liars.

Don't underestimate them. They carefully prepared three stories.

A botched birthday,

a surprising artistic collab,

and even a bit of porn. Yeah, yeah.

FACE OF A GUY WHO'S INTERESTED

On our YouTube channel, with have something similar.

Truths, lies, investigations.

We've been doing that for years and years, the art of the poker face.

So, we're confident going in. We're ready to play.

This first story happened at an important time in our lives.

We've been on the Net for a long, long, long time.

It's actually about the break out of our YouTube channel in 2017, 2018.

We'd been doing videos for a while, but then…

Great, awesome, very grateful. Our lives changed.

And one day, we receive a text message.

It's a good story, short, it's good.

-We receive a crazy text message. -We can show you.

-We're going to show it to you. -Proof!

Ahmed, can you read the text message?

"Guys, I got, beep, the boss of, beep,

who want…" Oh, damn!

He doesn't know how to spell.

-"Who wants…" -"Who want."

"Who want."

It's still a mistake.

No, not at all.

"Who want you for his son's birthday,

end of September, the pay is good. He's used to doing that."

"I'm not kidding." "Seriously? How much?"

"50K."

50K?

50,000 euros, it's a lot to just show up and say hi to kids.

It's a lot.

50,000, so like 25,000 each. It's not too bad.

One doesn't get more than the other?

There's always been one that's funnier.

You never realized?

I would talk about it. Olivier, you earn more I hope.

Obviously.

So, when we got this, we didn't know what to do, obviously,

because we want to do it, but also, it's a birthday,

it's weird. What do you do at a birthday?

When you're a singer, a comedian,

you can do something, it's all right.

-But when you're a YouTuber? -All right.

But we tell ourselves, "Come on, it's 50 grand."

So, we decide to go, we take the car, and we go.

It's happening in Chantilly.

Chantilly, for those who are not familiar…

I've been, it's nice.

-The houses are insane. -It's very posh.

-Very wealthy. -We get there.

The dad comes out, he works for a big company

that allows YouTuber to make product placements.

-Okay. -He introduces us to the kid,

we play along, happy birthday, selfies right away,

pictures, videos with the kid.

And all the kid's friends, the whole bunch.

Pictures, videos for the cousins, it makes sense.

Well, yeah, 50,000, guys!

Our lives are similar, you know.

We do it and it's great. Well, this part is great.

Except that the thing we were afraid of,

after that, it starts to creep in.

Okay, now that we've done that, what are we doing here?

There was nothing planned.

And also, the kid is happy to see us, but the others kind of don't care.

They get a bit too comfortable, they tease us, get on our nerves.

We're not having a good time, we don't feel at ease.

At one point, they start a Nerf battle, they gang up on us.

They start shooting at us.

-For real? -For real.

They got so comfortable, when we were next to the swimming pool,

they fight and they pushed me into the pool.

They don't really give a fuck.

You need to know that I have a temper,

and with the pool thing, I blew a fuse.

I went up to the dad, like, "We've done our part, we're gonna go."

And he was not okay with that.

GUY WITH A GULLIBLE FACE

It gets heated. He says, "50K, you stay until tonight."

And he says, "You should discipline your kids."

The dad says, "Tell your friend to calm down."

Things get heated, he's losing it.

They start to grab each other, it gets more heated.

I think to myself, "Damn, what are we doing?"

Until we tell ourselves, "We better go."

So, I pull them apart, we leave.

As we're leaving, the guy tells us, "I know everybody you work with,

you will never work again, it's over."

It's not that, basically we tell him,

"We'd rather go, we don't give a fuck about your money."

It's possible.

We never got the money, because we left really quickly.

Obviously, there was no contract.

But we didn't want his money anymore.

The only thing is, at the agency we work for, they tell us,

"He's the one guy you shouldn't mess with."

So he really is influential?

-He's a big boss. -Okay.

-Not bad, well done. -You're really good storytellers.

Thank you, thank you.

Thank you, it was our first story.

They're really good.

I'm blown away.

There were no details that made me think it was weird.

It seemed smooth.

-Can I ask a question? -Yes.

Not getting paid, did you think, "Oh, well, it's dirty money."

Truthfully, we were just happy to still have a career.

You didn't get into debt before, to buy a car?

Yes, it makes me mad a bit.

It's believable, because they are really famous.

It's possible, a lot of artists do that.

Rihanna did it.

-Beyoncé. -But it's always more.

-Look at you. -It's true.

You're good.

-Let's debrief. I'm happy. -Great.

Is it a known story?

They can say something true and insert something fake.

Full debrief over there!

Truth is everywhere.

It's true, until they get there.

I think you're right.

If it's fake, I will take it personally.

So, no, it's fake.

It's shocking to lie to someone's face.

You're joking.

Maybe they went to the party, they got pushed into the pool.

And they said, "Thanks for the money."

That's the true story.

And it wasn't 50K, it was 30 or 40 bucks.

Carlito, I want to take a picture for my son.

Come here.

My son loves you, you have no idea.

Actually, I'm throwing him a birthday party, you guys wanna come?

The crooks, they are softening the enemy.

They're smiling, when they could actually

be lying to your face since the beginning.

Did you know that the persimmon gives kaki fruits?

Personally, I knew it.

Okay, thank you.

-I didn't know. -He's insufferable.

Did you know?

Even there, I don't know if it's true or not.

It'll be the same for their second story.

They're going to throw us for a loop.

Our strategy is to have the same demeanor for each story we tell.

To have the same range of motion, to not move too much.

Years of experience come in handy here.

Okay, let's go.

I don't know if you're aware, but before we made videos together,

we made music.

We were in a band in high school.

It was in 2000.

The story I'm going to tell you is set in 2021.

We released an album that made a killing, people really like it.

How many did you sell?

Well…

None.

We have boxes full of CDs that we use as tables

in our studio. I swear, it's true.

-We screwed up. -The public didn't enjoy it.

They didn't like it.

It was for the hell of it.

It's okay, it happens, it allowed us to reflect on it, it's okay.

So, we go into the recording studio.

We have a record label and everything.

He's the composer, I deal with the lyrics.

And while we're working,

I found a riff, do you know what it is?

-A chord. -A sequence of guitar chords.

Things with chords that make up a song.

Is it really important for the story?

It's rather important for the story.

Yeah, it really is.

He plays the riff for me.

Whenever we work together, I listen to his things.

-Should I play the riff now? -Okay.

-I'm gonna play the riff. -Is it your proof?

-It is. -Yes.

I like how you play it as if it was unexpected.

There's a guitar and everything.

-Go on. -I don't know if it's tuned.

-It is. -It really is.

I want to hit you.

Long hair, guitar. It's so annoying.

-You're just jealous. -Yeah.

Totally.

I'll play the riff. It's like that.

Is that in the album?

-Make some noise, people. -Yeah!

I got an improv!

An improv!

Go, Ahmed.

Tonight, it's Liars Club

Tonight, it's Liars Club

Tonight, it's Liars Club

-He's really into it. -It's awesome.

Does this riff make you think of an artist?

Christophe Maé, a little bit.

But it hurts to live without you

-It's not Maé. -Vianney!

He might use an electric guitar.

Matthieu Chedid!

Yes!

-Who is it? -M?

We're at a stage where we think that it would be good

to do some featuring songs.

So, I tell myself, I'll call him to ask him,

"Do you want to make a collab on our album?"

He says, "I'm in."

We send him the riff, and several days, weeks later,

we get an email that says, "I was really inspired by the riff."

"It actually inspired a topline."

He sends us something, and we're like…

He found something, it's great.

Except that a lot of time has gone by.

And we think it's probably too late for him to be featured on our album.

-We let it go. -Sorry?

Well, time went by and we had to hurry to release the album…

Even though you really like it?

-David really liked it. -We were almost done, it was too late.

It's weird that you would say no.

-We didn't say no. -No.

Time had passed and we were really busy at the time.

We finish the album, release it.

It's a Billboard hit.

No, no, no.

A cardboard hit, given how many we have left.

I'll download it once we're done.

You are my life, darling.

-And more weeks go by… -Well, months.

I get a phone call from David, and he says,

"M is releasing his next album."

And one of the songs is inspired from David's riff.

Incredible.

I can't believe it, I'm proud, it's awesome.

And basically, that's our story.

On M's album, there's a song that exists because of us.

A round of applause, please.

Okay.

I think there's something that holds up.

He got the guitar.

I said, "It's possible."

-What's the title? -We're going to hear it?

I'm not going to give you the title, it would be too easy.

You know I can't tell you.

Are we going to hear it?

-No. -What's the proof?

The riff was the proof.

-That was the proof? -Yes.

-Ahmed. -Are you serious?

-Use your search card... -Right.

...and look up M's albums.

-It's their album. -No, it's in M's album.

Below composer, you would see the name.

Girls, you're right. We need to do it. But they know what they're doing.

No, they're starting to whisper.

What year was it?

2021…

They're starting to sweat.

We'll go on the Web, but it's impossible.

If you look it up, I think you'll find it.

But if we don't find anything?

I don't know what to tell you.

You actually want us to waste our card.

-That's it! -No, not at all!

Do it, dude.

No, don't do that.

Well done, Ahmed, this game does make you crazy.

When he says that, I think he tries to make me think

that I shouldn't look it up, because…

They got into my head.

You would have talked about it in a video.

-If you told… -All right, it's done.

-All right, it's done. -Not at all.

-It's done. -I don't believe it for one second.

I don't know why, I believed it.

What I don't believe is, "He called me. 'I like it, is it possible?'"

If M calls you, he says, "Yeah, it's me."

Well done. You've planted the seed of doubt.

Yeah, well done, guys.

We are the Léon Marchand of storytelling.

You want us to waste a card on that?

The next one is true?

A THUMBS-UP AMONG LIARS

Not easy, not easy. I'm lost.

So, we say M.

But M for "mythomaniac" or M for "Matthieu Chedid?"

In the evening

A summer sun

She comes from the train station

Gazing into space

Come on, Saint-Étienne, it's your turn!

It's not bad!

It seems like finding the truth is not a priority for the Kahmed pair.

They'll be on tour in France, especially in Saint-Étienne.

Everyone is ready for the third story?

-Absolutely. -Come on.

Bravo!

Wait. Who's there?

Who is it? Well, McFly and Carlito, it's for you to tell us.

Yes, it's time for the elevator to give us a small surprise.

The clue we have to include in our story.

So, if your story is fake, you embellish, you improvise.

But if it's true, you have to stay credible without giving yourself away.

When the elevator opens, it's rather exciting.

Because we are rather competitive.

-It doesn't scare me. -We are used to it.

It's rather exciting.

What happened was that,

the first very cool thing that happened in our career,

was to join Golden Moustache. Do you know Golden Moustache?

Golden Moustache was a collective

of authors, directors, creators, et cetera, who would get together

to create sketches that would be put on the YouTube channel.

So, we join the group, it was very exciting.

We come up with lots of ideas, they get accepted or rejected.

Among the plethora of ideas we suggested back then, there was one.

And this idea was as follows. We would shoot a video

with a couple having sex in the background.

We would be in the foreground, playing chess.

In the foreground, as if everything was normal.

And there would be a double entendre for the dialogue.

Very badly written.

"Careful, I'm penetrating the area."

"Don't go too hard, don't go too deep."

"She took his rook."

-Things like that. -It's good.

Badly written… You approve. Okay.

If you have others, we'll take them.

We pitch the idea and start shooting.

We edit the video.

We pitch it to the manager at the time who tells us, "We can't put that online.

"If you put it as is, it's still a porn.

"We can see people having sex.

"And if we blur it, it's just not funny."

We were just beginning, and we had a small fanbase.

So we're a bit cautious,

we finally have a bit of an audience.

We don't want to risk everything with it.

So we think, " Not on Golden."

But this video can maybe exist another way.

We try to make it worthwhile somehow.

On a porn website.

No!

Wow.

That's what happened. Our team contacted a porn website.

I don't know any.

Nothing comes to mind?

So, we get a green light from this very famous porn website.

The end of the story is important.

Because we're your favorites jokers,

-you like us. -Of course.

We arranged a little something.

When we got into this room,

we gave the green light and this video is available on a porn website.

Obviously, without the tags "chess," "McFly and Carlito."

-You can't find it. -Only those who are having sex.

Them and us playing chess in the front.

Do we see your faces?

We're in the foreground, playing chess.

We should applaud them, because the move itself…

I think this move is crazy good.

Give us a clue so that we can find the video.

-We're going on a porn website? -A key word?

If we do this, it's going to be hard…

Did you put it online?

That's what we said.

-You're insane. -We know.

Just this morning, for the show. You are insane!

I'm in trouble with them. I don't know if they're lying, I can't tell.

It's possible, it works.

It works, it works.

-They annoy me. -They're annoying.

-What's the role of the silhouette? -It's the girl.

-Can we ask questions? -Sure.

It's at the heart of our story.

Yeah, but she's not even naked.

What type of sex move did they do in the porn video?

-What is it? -That's a deviant's question.

-The question is crazy. -What's the question?

What kind of sex move did they do in the video?

Sorry, but there are different ways to have sex.

-Really? -Missionary.

Amazon.

Is it because we're on Prime?

Well done.

McFly and Carlito, I never really see a lie.

They don't contradict themselves.

Sometimes, I make mistakes, you know.

Because I'm American.

I have small…

I used to live in Wyoming, I had 30,000 heads of cattle.

-You got in trouble with the Natives? -No.

I believe they thought ahead,

that they shot the video just for the show.

Because they're crazy, they're capable of doing that.

-So we need to find it. -Exactly.

Yes, that's better.

-I want to see it. -Come on, let's go.

I don't believe it.

I know it's possible they made this video.

They did give real details.

With Golden Moustache, I can believe it.

But to say, "Go on, check," it's clearly a trap

-so that we use our search card. -Of course.

Who's using their card?

Us, we'll do it.

-Besides Anis and I? -Yes.

Come on, guys.

But we don't visit these sites.

-We might waste it. -Don't care, it's the game.

Personally, I believe it. We could have done it.

-It's a very exciting moment. -I'm sweating.

I swear I'm sweating.

Honestly, I'm not overconfident. It's a gamble.

Where's that?

SEARCH CARD

I'm using it, I want to go on a porn site.

THE TRUTH IS, THERE IS NO TRUTH!
