THE TRUTH IS, THERE IS NO TRUTH!

McFly and Carlito have finished to tell their three stories.

Now they have to survive everyone's investigation.

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

Especially Freddy and Anis' search card.

I want to go on a porn site.

I think they look very eager.

For new members of the club, here's how the search card works.

This card gives you access to a computer to search things.

But only once and only for a minute.

Anis, log into your premium account.

Whether he wins or not, Anis could boast that he watched porn on Amazon Prime.

Okay, it's a good story for his next party,

but remember, the goal is to find a lead to see if their story is true.

It's not to beat weird records.

I can't use the mouse.

I'm not going because they're going on a porn site.

And I'm not 18.

And you have to be 18 to access it.

-Go into incognito mode. -Nobody cares, bro.

How is he going to look it up?

"McFly and Carlito porn video."

It's crazy!

I've just realized what we're doing.

What are you doing, boys?

You are being paid by Prime to go on a porn site.

I've never been on a porn website.

The last script you gave me was a porn script.

No, I'm not into that.

But I know the actors, I know who Clara Morgane is, Katsuni…

-It's not just that. -Abella Danger…

-You've mentioned… -Kira Noir…

He knows them all.

Are we gonna see it or not?

-You're not allowed. -If they let us, I am.

-It's obscene. -Do you let them?

-We'll see. -I don't know.

Freddy, Anis!

If we find it!

Come on.

-We need to sort them. -Come here.

-We need to… No… -Come here.

-It disgusts me! -It's disgusting.

Stop the act!

It's horrible.

Stop it, Kad!

-My mom is going to watch. -No!

It's really porn, and not small-time porn.

It's like einkorn and spelt.

Honestly, it was spelt. Did you see it?

-It was spelt. -I didn't see.

They won't find it.

Let's hope it didn't make it to social media.

It's the only scary thing.

We know he has one minute to find it on a porn site

with no key words, no clues…

-It'll be fine. -Yes.

-What are you doing? -Click on "Most relevant."

You're kidding!

Great, we didn't even see your video.

Unfortunately, they ended up bare-handed.

The minute was over. They needed to follow their gut now.

I can't forget what I've seen.

And delete the browser history, please, guys. Thanks.

I've seen some shocking things.

-Obviously. -No, but the ads for…

Why did I make the sound?

Anis couldn't click.

It's a good thing.

We still wasted our search card.

Even if we had five of them, Anis would have…

Anis would have wanted to see if this video existed.

I got home with my search card, I did a thorough search.

What's the website? Because…

-It looks interesting. -It's for a friend.

It was rather believable.

It's possible.

It could be fake or true, but it's believable.

I'm really not sure about you guys, you're good.

Because you're crazy enough to do it.

And good enough to fool us.

Masterclass.

Can't tell the truth from the lies.

Their years of lying paid off.

It's time to light up our pipes, to frown,

to put on our raincoats and to shed light on this case.

Between "Our Worst Birthday,"

"We Wrote a Song for M,"

and "The Secret Video," which one is true?

Even though I was there, I'm still not sure.

That's how good they are.

Dude. The twist.

It's good.

Damn.

So, I have a question, Hakim.

Do you know Columbo?

-Yes. -I did it well, no?

Yes, it was all right.

-The birthday story. -McFly and Carlito are good.

They're really good storytellers.

Birthday, what's-his-name, kids…

It makes sense. It had good details.

It's true.

I believe it.

They're punks, they're crazy, no?

They're so cunning. They tell you crazy things, as if they were details.

"They pushed us in the pool."

That's crazy. It could have been the end.

"I went to a birthday party and I fell into a pool."

It wasn't great, but nicely told.

"We wrote a song for M."

I'm lost.

I'm not sure. Personally, I think it's true.

They tried to get us to look it up on the Net.

You know we haven't used it. Our search card.

What's insane, is that they suggested we look it up.

So, if they tell us to look it up,

they know we checked, we say it's fake.

It means the next one is true. But we can't check.

What's the strategy? I don't get it.

They tried to make us believe that Matthieu Chedid…

-Yes. -Zarma,

has a song in his album thanks to McFly and Carlito.

Just look at their faces.

No!

The story about the porn video,

it's really far-fetched, sorry.

I would not put a porn video online…

Never.

-We did it. -We did a fake porn video.

A fake porn video. We didn't do…

Incidentally, it was funny.

Since it's a scatty pair, they are capable of doing it.

We might have put it on this morning…

-It worked. -This type of scheme…

They scare me.

They had a whole thing to trick us.

They wouldn't have done that if it was true.

I think the real one, they're going… It's logical.

You put more effort for something fake.

It's exciting.

We'll do it quickly. I believe in us.

-We follow our instincts. -We have work to do.

-In this round, I'd say that. -Okay, let's go.

You still have doubts? Trust me.

-Check. -Congrats.

Come on, let's go back.

So, they went back, and they also threw us for a loop.

They're not here to play.

Melha, focused.

I am focused.

They're here to win.

We will win. We will win, I can feel it.

I'll write you a letter.

Like Kenza Farah with Sefyu.

"Letter from the front. The battle rages on."

Do you remember?

We need to win.

We like to play. We are good when it comes to fooling people.

It's called being vicious.

Yes, but in the context of a game show.

-We wouldn't do that in real life. -Yes, it's true.

No, in real life, according to them,

they talk with Hollywood stars,

they go on vacation in Dubai,

and they, apparently, also go on car chases.

All of that said with composure.

They're really dangerous.

-It's the girls' turn. -Okay.

Melha, Melha.

This one deserves to be told here.

I'm not gonna lie, this story makes me emotional,

because it's the most shameful story of my entire life.

I've never been more embarrassed.

It's the first time I'm telling it.

Well, that we decide to tell it.

If it wasn't for this show, I would have never talked about it.

Your act is already terrible.

Your act is terrible.

Screw them.

When you have four pairs, here to fight,

to show you, to prove to you that your story is fake,

I don't care, I'm a fighter, a warrior.

When was this?

-In 2018. -Very well.

My second year at the Academy.

And they offered us, well, not offered,

but there was a masterclass with a very, very famous actor.

We're all fans here.

Everybody knows him.

You're embarrassing me.

This person is Al Pacino.

Al Pacino!

Once again, the elevator!

Always at the wrong time, it's crazy.

Well, it's the goal, to unsettle them. It's a game.

It's up to them now to make this star shine in their story.

Give it up for the star.

With the star, we have to embellish.

Embellish, right?

We embellish?

No embellish?

Can you keep that?

To be checked.

Okay, we check. To let them hone their story.

So, hone or hone?

No, you're not gonna start too.

Al Pacino comes to the Academy to give a masterclass.

Imagine the state we were in.

I kindly ask Melha to…

She was allowed a plus-one because she's the director's pet.

Al Pacino in 2018, it's not what it used to be.

Well, Kad Merad In 2024, it's annoying.

That's a joke!

I know it's joke you only tell with an audience.

All right, go away. As I was saying…

Here we were, masterclass from Al Pacino.

There were like 600 people.

Exactly, it's not nothing.

A bit awe-inspiring.

When we get there, he was talking about,

for your general knowledge,

he said he doesn't have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Yes, exactly.

It's one of the only actors, and he is Al Pacino.

He refused.

Scarface, The Godfather, I'll spare you the whole filmography.

He doesn't have a star. Why? Because he refused it.

Because it was a political statement for him.

-Really? -Yes.

-It's possible. -That's our little clue.

You need to know, we were not super bilingual.

Since we don't understand English well,

we try in some way to translate things between us.

We whisper, I tell her, "Actually…"

We're a bit noisy when translating.

Until the moment when…

When Al Pacino stops dead.

Oh, shit.

He says, "If you want to talk and if I bore you, you get out."

I felt my organs dropping.

We apologize. But I have a problem.

When things get awkward, I make them even more awkward.

If I could make lasagna out of awkwardness…

-She's making things worse! -A millefeuille?

No, but you're not ready for what she did!

They're exaggerating.

-For real... -Al Pacino calls us out.

Except that, since it's awkward, everybody is looking at us,

I don't know why, all of the sudden, I say…

I look around, I try to mime scenes that I know.

And I say, "You talking to me?"

Stop it!

Not once, not twice, three times.

Awkwardness, silence.

Silence. There were 600 people.

Silence of a cathedral. Bro, Garou was with me.

It was that uncomfortable.

And then, somebody tells us,

"It's not Al Pacino, it's De Niro who did that."

It's true.

-It's beautiful. -It was.

I really like this story.

And I have a few extra pounds, but back then, I was slim.

Bro, like that.

I was so embarrassed and I thought,

"I'm going to get her kicked out of the Academy."

-The silence continues. -Then, big surprise.

Al Pacino...

He does the same thing they do in American movies.

-Not as much. -Not as much.

-Not as much. -Really?

We kind of understand that he says,

"You had the balls to…"

"To say the wrong line."

"To say the wrong thing with such certainty."

Panache? Did he say "panache?"

Yes, I think so…

-"Panache." -Yeah.

-Do you have proof? -We have proof.

Concrete proof.

It's a digital proof, not a concrete one.

-It's digital. -Nicely done.

Go on, until the end.

-Hello. -Is it Al Pacino?

I'm Claire Lasne-Darcueil.

I was head of the Academy from 2013 until 2023.

And indeed,

we had the honor of receiving Al Pacino

and I remember it well, obviously.

And I also remember quite well Melha and Oulaya's performances,

both of whom got really mixed up.

We all know he's a wonderful actor,

but he's also a good sport, so he laughed a lot.

But it's obviously something we all remember.

You don't say.

It's possible.

So we deserve credit for telling you that Al Pacino put us in our place.

But he kind of congratulated us too.

Bravo.

-Not bad. -Not bad at all.

Totally fake, but it's well said.

-Question. -Yes, David.

There's something bugging me.

I went to Hollywood that summer, a few weeks before this shoot.

I'm sure at 99%

that I saw an Al Pacino star there.

Maybe you mistook him for De Niro.

In front of the Chinese Theater?

I believe it's handwritten. It's not a star.

-With the hands. -That's not the same.

-So not the star. -We're talking about the star.

The Walk of Fame is not the handprints.

I'm on a Walk of Fame, I got a star.

-In Dijon. -It's true.

Yes, it's true.

-In Lille! -In Lille!

-Me too. -Me too.

Nobody wants to use their joker to check?

Because if it's fake, the whole story is fake.

INTENSE THINKING

They are extraordinary liars.

Yes, but at the same time, since we know them,

I feel like it's the truth.

I believe, and I also like the story.

Oulaya, why was Melha with you?

She was allowed a plus-one.

Yes.

It was allowed at the Academy…

-Yes. -I'm asking the question.

Yes, I was allowed because I know the director very well.

And why Melha?

Why? Because she's a comedian.

She's really that good of a friend?

She's my best friend.

-She's your best friend? I didn't know. -She's not mine.

You never talked about her.

You're joking?

We were not best friends yet. She was just a friend.

-Zero credibility. -Zero.

You can say this story is fake.

I would like it to be fake.

They were so into the game.

And the César for Machiavellianism goes to…

Melha and Oulaya.

They're not done.

Now that they're on a roll, it's all about schemes and strategy.

-Let's go. -Okay!

-Next! -Who wants water?

We're going to…

I'm freewheeling.

All the other stories have to be like that.

I take everything at face value,

it's a life-or-death situation.

From now on, it's war.

We need to win.

ETW. Everything to win.

In the end, confusing the opponent,

whether it's true or not, it's win-win.

If they don't know which story to choose, it's good for them.

Don't worry, we're here.

Even I don't know anymore, they lost me.

You're always lost. I wonder if you were really there.

I was, it's just that I really live in the moment.

Prove it then. What's next?

They're taking us to Dubai.

-All right, well done. -Apologize.

So, a few years ago, ladies and gentlemen,

we decided to spend the 31st, so New Year's Eve,

in an enticing destination.

Is this how it's going it be?

'Cause otherwise I'm going with McFly and Carlito.

Lights are dimming.

-She's playing Werewolf. -"Close your eyes."

"The town is sleeping."

-Actually… -Let her talk.

So, for New Year's 2020, we wanted to go to Dubai.

We started planning on December 15, obviously.

Exotic destination for two girls from the Maghreb.

You wanted to party?

We wanted to play frivolous reality TV girls without parents.

And to do so,

we had a plan we're not proud of, but we had less work back then.

It's a guy called Cheap Vacation on a social media platform.

Right.

It's the tour operator, it's the Thomas Cook from the ghetto.

You give him your dates, your flights…

The hotel you want.

And it's half price.

As planned, he sends us the tickets, the hotel.

The booking. We're excited, we board the plane.

Everything goes as expected, we're with a friend, it's great.

We get to the airport in Dubai, Customs, nothing happens.

We arrive in a luxury hotel.

The type of hotel with influencers in it.

And so?

We get to the hotel, 6:00 a.m.

No reservation.

We write to the Cheap Vacation guy on social media.

Obviously, he doesn't reply.

There's a ton of super-hot girls coming back from the club, stilettos.

Sparkling girls from reality TV.

And we're there wearing dirty Uggs, our mustaches.

And we're waiting.

So what do we do?

We decide to go eat breakfast, we're not that stingy.

We go, we get on the deckchairs facing the sea.

At least there's the sea.

We chill a bit.

She posts a story of me, 'cause everything is crazy,

I'm changing clothes, nothing is right, I have leggings.

-She posts a story. -And who should reply to it?

To my story?

Cheap Vacation?

No. Nabilla Vergara.

-Who loved Divines… -Do you know who Nabilla is?

Yes, I'm enthralled!

-Do you know who she is or not? -Nabilla?

-Yes. -You never know.

It's my mom.

SAME NOSE

So, Nabilla replies to my story, and says, "What's going on?"

-We're a bit ashamed. -She knows her a bit, me not at all.

I won't give too many details.

I tell her we're in a bit of trouble,

but we're waiting for a friend to reply to us.

She says, "Don't be ridiculous. I'm coming to get you."

She comes to get us.

We end up at Nabilla and Thomas' house in Dubai.

I had never met her before. She had talked a bit with her before.

She comes, she brings us to her house.

Like Wisteria Lane in Desperate Housewives.

It's full of rich influencers that have the same architect.

She opens her home to us, it was crazy.

She housed us. Literally.

-The story is over? -The story is over.

-Well done. -Thank you.

MELHA IMPROVISING OULAYA TOO

I feel like Melha feels bad when she lies too much.

That's what I saw. Maybe I go too far.

I saw her do too much, feeling bad, missing her cue.

And you can't fake things too much.

But it could also be a strategy.

-Can we ask question? -Of course.

You were in her home? With their children?

Only the newborn, he was two months old.

When was that? What year?

New Year's 2020. So in 2019.

At that moment, I feel like Oulaya is not too sure.

I feel like she's a bit… She's not well.

When did you get your César?

What year was your César?

-2017. -Okay.

I'm doing my investigation, I'm reading her body language.

I think, "We can see you don't like to lie."

"You're not into it, not into the lie."

"You don't like it. I can feel it."

Can we show you our proof, please?

There it is.

Ah, so it's true.

The arrival was really at 6:40 a.m., we had no reservation.

What's the black thing behind?

-It's the hotel cart. -Okay.

Why is Oulaya not next to you?

You're taking the picture?

It's my story, that's what Nabilla replied to.

The rule when you see proof is to question it.

She made a story, there's nothing written on it?

No, that's the original picture.

Every time, the answers are clean,

they answer quickly, without missing a beat, no hesitation.

I'll show you the picture of what she got in her suitcase.

In Dubai. In Dubai! Look.

-Something really warm in wool. -Is it yours, Oulaya?

Are you often cold?

It's made out of wool.

There's a big denim jacket and big wool sweater.

In the end, it was warm over there.

Very, but in the evening, there was a small breeze.

Oulaya and Melha, when they talk,

one is surprised by the other. They don't do it on purpose.

-Or they're good. -I'm afraid of that.

We should stay on our guard.

There's also an issue with Melha. When she says things,

even when she lies, she's always smiling.

It's rather hard to get. A nice manipulator.

I wouldn't want to share my life with her.

I'm kidding, Melha, come on.

He might be kidding, but I don't. They're hard to read.

Luckily, that's the point.

Honestly, they were made for Liars Club.

I want to win!

We already won!

Because we met each other.

-We're at home. -We're playing at home.

-It's the last one. -Yeah, we're at ease.

At ease, it's one way to see things. I would say overexcited.

Okay, is everybody ready? I can't hear you.

-Hip-hip… -Hooray!

Now that everybody was at ease,

Melha and Oulaya were full of energy.

Ready to tell their third and last story.

Is it already the last one?

Times flies when it's told well.

Okay, so, it happened…

in 2018.

There's a festival called Jean Carmet.

A film festival, short films,

I attended several times.

They offered me a spot on the jury.

It was three hours away by train or three hours and nine minutes by car.

So we might as well smoke cigarettes in Oulaya's Peugeot 208.

So we left for the Jean Carmet festival.

There was nobody on the highway to go to Auvergne, especially in February.

Night is falling, it's dark.

A white van is flashing its headlights at us.

I think, "Well, I'm in the middle lane."

"Why is he signaling me? Just take me over on the left,

like you're supposed to."

He finally passes me, we look each other up and down.

Like one does when driving.

And we start to think that we should do a small car chase.

We hype ourselves up, like, "He's crazy, this guy."

"I come from the 91, he doesn't know me."

So we keep driving, he pulls up next to us.

And he starts. And I do too.

I put the high beams, I don't know who I think I am.

-I put the lights. -We only had 6 miles.

We drive and we drive, it's starting, he's next to us.

He moves his hands.

He looks at us, we keep the windows closed.

We talk, we have big mouths,

but not too much, we don't want to go too far.

The exit ramp comes up, we turn on the blinker.

He also turns on his blinker.

And the joke went on long enough. We're not laughing anymore, we're scared.

He goes to the same place as us.

We won't be so cheeky anymore.

We arrive in a city called Moulins-sur-Allier.

Right? And thus starts a car chase in the town of Moulins-sur-Allier.

-It's a small main road. -No, really.

It's true, it's a small main road.

-She thinks she's in GTA. -Stop, you were so scared.

I was, but it wasn't that impressive.

-To me, it seemed real. -If you want to believe it, me too.

We turn into a street. Dead end.

I say to Melha, "We'll park the car."

We turn off the lights.

Like in gangster movies.

We lost him.

-We lower the seats. We're like that. -We were really into it.

We think, "It's over."

Oulaya, she made me anxious. She really did.

We send voice messages to a group of friends.

"This might be our last message."

And then…

No!

THE TRUTH IS, THERE IS NO TRUTH!
