FATALE-STATION 1,804 SOULS

Did you submit the mayor’s nomination?

He still has 10 days to change his mind.

I won’t run. I've made my decision.

I was once assaulted by a guy, too.

Or I can repeat what you already know:

that I’ll find you again,

and this time I won’t miss.

And you better be ready because this time

I won't be alone.

Why's she having that effect on you?

Someone's coming with a bomb.

- Maybe it's just to get us out of here. - The mayor just called me.

Woo! Yes!

At 26, I killed my friend with a shotgun

to the chest in front of his wife and daughter.

Damn it, Eddy enough with that story!

Do you hear that?

The noise.

The detonation.

26 years later, it still resonates.

It's because you haven't had enough to drink.

There are certain noises that last a lifetime.

His big betrayed puppy eyes looking at me.

He just couldn't believe it.

Ina hugged her mother ...

William fell to his knees in the middle of the room.

He was looking at his hands.

He couldn’t understand what was happening.

Your friend shooting you in the chest.

As if he himself hadn't entered the house with an ax.

As if it wasn’t written all over his face

that he was going to kill us all.

What were they doing at your house, Ina and her mother?

Sally was a waitress here.

This is before I took over managing.

She often came over, bringing me leftovers.

And if she hadn't lost her mind after that,

would you have married her?

You must have felt something for her.

That much, eh!

Yeah, that much.

And Sarah?

Ina finds that you look at her a lot.

Oh boy, we're in shit!

I think she needs someone

to protect her as well.

If that’s not the planets aligning,

I don't know what is.

Hello, Marie.

Did you get my bang, bang? Is that why you’re calling me?

Yes.

It surprised me that you were in Fatale Station.

I don't know what you're doing in that hole,

but it makes me want to investigate things, as they say.

Have you surrounded yourself with good people?

Have you made some little friends? Hmm? Who?

Who could come to the aid of a poor helpless girl?

I want to know where you are

and when you’re going to get here.

Well, it depends when I leave.

Unless I'm already on my way ...

I can let the dust settle too.

You make a quiet life

with whomever

and one ordinary day,

I just show up...

Did she lose her marbles again, you think?

The blender at 4:00 in the morning ...

Well, she made a smoothie.

I love you. To prove it to you, I didn't add vegetables.

24 hours before the filing of your nomination for the election.

- Jean! - Can we talk for a couple of minutes?

Before my donut?

Could have been before you brushed your teeth!

I won’t sell the limestone quarry.

You don't have to worry about your retirement.

Until the next fight.

But in exchange, I want to ask you a favour.

I received a call from the provincial police last night.

I know about the bomb.

But there’s something

you may not know yet.

They took advantage of the evacuation

to collect all the Indians’ stuff.

They cleaned up the roadblock.

Oh, man!

On whose orders?

From the government, but I don't know exactly who.

At 2:00 in the morning?

The good thing is it’s opened up a door for us.

I want you to meet with the Atikamekws

before they relocate,

and then try to convince them

to change their pressure tactics.

They're going to be pissed.

Céline trusts you, I'm sure she’ll listen to you.

And I don't think we should spread the word about the bomb.

You think you could keep it to yourself for a little while?

God knows what crazy ideas it could give people.

NEW MAYOR, NEW DAY!

You’ve been waiting for this.

I just didn't want it to be like this.

I wanted to win them over with my ideas,

not because I’m the only candidate.

It’s a great victory, regardless of how it happened.

There is a reason he doesn’t want to run.

It's because he knows who he's up against.

It’s true that you speak well, mayor.

If it wasn't for that big thing

growing in your face ...

Isn't Picpic with you?

- You don’t know? - What’s happened?

He was arrested last night. He tried to leave a bomb.

- What? - My God.

A homemade bomb.

He put it in the woods near the Atikamekws dam.

- And it was me who defused it. - What?

How come you weren't notified?

You're the public safety advisor!

They may not have had time yet.

- I'm going to go make a call. - Thanks, Bobby.

Well, are you able to manage without Picpic?

To set up the stage for tomorrow's speech? Oh yeah!

And at home, I have everything you need

for the sound system.

Remember I'm a musician?

How could we forget?

Yeah! Ah well, that's over, I don't do Elvis anymore.

I was actually wondering ...

Since I'm sort of the hero of the day,

maybe I could do a song or two before his speech

just to warm up the room?

Thanks, but no thanks.

Bobby!

Can I have two minutes of your time?

Of course.

We wanted to tell you, my sister and I,

that we’re really proud of you.

- For the bomb, eh? - Yes.

You saved us from a lot of trouble.

Thanks.

I admit that it feels good.

To be ... to be like a hero, I mean.

Yeah, actually ... my sister would like you to keep

the whole story to yourself, if possible.

I know it's tempting to capitalize on it,

but if the world hears about a bomb,

we don't know what could happen.

Jean doesn’t want it to create a feeling of insecurity

or animosity.

You follow me?

Can we count on you?

Yes, sure, yes.

Have you talked to anybody about it?

You can tell me.

Nobody.

You're sure?

Yes. Yes, absolutely.

Good, perfect.

Thanks.

Pleasure.

I need a job.

I'm just going around in circles all by myself in the presbytery.

I’ve already done this in another life.

I know how it works.

Waitress?

While Ina is recovering from her concussion.

After, if you like me, you can keep me on.

Um, I don't know.

I think it’s dangerous.

You know how we make sparks fly, you and I.

Bobby gave me a hand yesterday,

but he's definitely not as pretty as you.

It'd give us a chance

to look into each other's eyes a little bit.

And O'Gallagher?

I’d forgotten about her.

11:00 am, say?

I'm going to go get a uniform at the service desk.

Nothing too revealing, I hope.

Now, you’re going to count down the minutes

until the nominations close.

But don't you find that a little pompous?

People know François isn’t running.

Sorry, I don't want to ...

Mr. Langevin, can I talk to you for a minute?

Yeah, what's up, Bobby?

Uh ... what I told you this morning

about Picpic and the bomb,

I was wondering if you could keep it to yourself.

Mrs. O'Gallagher doesn't want us to discuss it too much.

Why?

She’s afraid of how people will react.

But you know that they have a right to know.

Yeah, it's just that it puts me in a bit of trouble

because I told Liza that I hadn't told anyone.

Why didn't you tell the truth?

I dunno. I didn't want to disappoint her.

I'll see what I can do about it, don’t worry.

After my speech,

how would you like to play a few songs?

Interested?

- Eh? For real? - Yeah!

Sure, I’d love to!

I'll make you a list

and you can tell me which ones you want.

- Sure. - Thanks!

That’s really cool, Mr. Langevin!

I'm going to go see mom.

Aren't you supposed to be resting?

You can't drive over there.

That's why you're going to come with me.

And who’s gonna take care of the place?

Where do I start?

Sarah will take care of the place.

Don't worry, I don't want your job,

I’ll just do it until you come back.

But you really need someone anyway.

Eddy still hasn't replaced the last girl who left.

He likes it when we’re stuck

with each other 6 days a week, 12 hours a day.

Come see Sally with me!

It makes no sense that you never come!

What are you afraid of?

I'm not afraid!

She’s in a great residence.

It's my mother.

You should know that Eddy killed my father when I was six.

It’s the first thing he tells people.

Okay, that’s enough!

She never recovered.

She’s been in an institution ever since.

Have you ever been to see her?

At first, yes, but it's been a while.

Go on, Eddy! I won't set the place on fire.

I haven't slept all night.

I'm not going to make a four-hour round trip!

Eddy!

Do you want me to do the tips?

No. Maybe a wash. It’s been a long night.

The way you rub is so good.

You're sweet. I haven't seen you in a long time.

Yeah, well I've been busy with the roadblock and everything.

They evacuated us last night

saying that there was a bomb.

- A bomb? - Yes.

They mostly took the opportunity to collect our things.

There’s a big fight over at the band council.

And you want to get your hair washed!

You know me, I like having silky hair.

Here. Take it off!

Hey, you don’t have your bracelet anymore?

They took it from me. My husband’s coming back.

He’s too sick, they’re releasing him.

And then I'm going to have to take care of him.

When?

I dunno. Any day now.

You must be so angry and humiliated.

We’re tired of people

taking a high horse like that!

Don't worry, I mean my mother too.

How will you be able to care for him after all that?

Hey, hey, hey ...

Sorry. Damn it.

I shouldn't have spoken that way.

Do you want me to leave?

Want me to come back later?

Don't leave me alone.

I don't know how I'm going to do it.

Hold on! Wait, wait, wait. Come here, there.

Come here.

Come.

That feels good.

We don't know each other that well,

but everyone needs affection.

I'm so alone.

I know.

I understand.

Ah! I could stay like this until the end of the world.

We’re in no rush.

What?

Nothing. Nothing.

This is wrong, what am I doing?

Oh, no, no! It's perfect!

No complaints.

It could be done with a little less grace but ...

Hey! I may have a beer.

Are we allowed to drink on the floor

or ... just lying down on the bar?

No, you can do anything here.

Especially what’s forbidden elsewhere.

Hey! You’re leaving!

What did I do?

That’s not how you talk to a lady.

She forgot my beer!

No, she forgot nothing.

She just told herself that a pig without manners

deserves to be served at the same time as the others.

He's right, I completely forgot about him.

I'm sorry, eh. Here, here.

What is it?

- Nothing. - You’re not thirsty anymore?

A little less, let's say.

What's wrong, Eddy? Going through menopause?

It’s stuff like that

I can’t handle anymore.

I’ve had enough of your nonsense day after day,

serving you by making jokes

to look as stupid as the rest you.

Ha! You call that joking?

Eddy!

You’re being vulgar...

And I'm not talking about your comments

or manners.

Rudeness, I can handle.

What are you talking about?

Your small-mindedness.

How your feelings lack refinement.

There isn't even a crack in your sidewalk

to allow fucking weeds to grow.

Eddy...

Sorry, you deserve better than that.

Do you still want to go see Sally?

Why do you suddenly want to go?

Don't start harassing me.

Hurry up, I have to be back for the dinner rush.

You're too sweet, it will be your downfall.

That and your good humor.

Thank you for coming, I appreciate it.

For the roadblock, I'm sorry, it wasn’t planned.

The order to clean up came from above

and in the middle of the night.

I swear, I didn't know about it.

I'll tell you what I think.

The government doesn’t give a shit about you.

Not enough people take this road.

Ultimately, you could block

the breeding area of the wood frog

and you’d be more successful.

There was no bomb.

Of course there was a bomb! What are you talking about?

There’s a guy who risked his life to defuse it.

How long have we known each other, you and I?

I called the provincial police.

They’re the ones who confirmed it.

I’m one of the few

who still has ties with them.

I'm sorry.

There was a bomb!

The police can’t lie like that to a citizen.

They can say what they want to an Atikamekw,

but they couldn't do the same with a reporter.

That's not a bad idea.

I'll owe you one.

I’ll remember that.

Are you paying for all this?

What do you think?

Where’s the money coming from?

The next-to-nothing salary you give me.

She could be in a free place,

but I dunno, I like that she has a little more than the minimum.

Why did you never ask me for anything?

Well, it's not like it's your favorite subject, let's say.

And why would you pay for her?

Give me two minutes and I'll join you.

I need to catch my breath.

Ina!

You’re so beautiful!

How are you, mom?

Good, good!

Having a good day?

They’re all good days.

Has it been long since we’ve seen each other?

The same as usual, why?

Did you get lonely?

No, come on. I never get lonely.

I brought you a visitor.

Oh, you should have warned me!

I would have fixed myself up.

No, you're perfect.

He's just an old acquaintance.

Who is it?

Eddy.

Do you remember Eddy?

Yes, of course I remember Eddy.

Well, he’s here. He came with me.

Where is he?

Who?

Eddy.

Didn't you say something about Eddy?

No ... but we can talk about him if you want.

No,

but you can thank him for me.

Again?

Look at the tall, beautiful girl he made!

I could never have done it alone.

And for the beautiful years he gave us.

It wasn't Eddy, mom, your husband. It was William.

You're right!

William O'Gallagher.

Ah, that was crazy!

He was your father.

Yes, mom, I know that.

A guy tried

to detonate a homemade bomb last night

at the Atikamekws dam in Fatale-Station.

The police told a citizen that it never happened.

Can you try to find out who gave the order?

I'm waiting for your call.

Hey!

Eddy?

What do you want?

Nothing, sorry. I just wanted to see if everything’s alright.

Haven't you had enough yet?

You want it all, eh?

You want everything up to the last crumb.

I don't know what you're talking about, I don't understand.

Let’s stop.

I'm not done!

I am.

Do you think I don't see your eyes when you look at us?

With your ass and your cleavage.

Alright, this is when you become dangerous

if I remember correctly.

Do you want me to leave and not set foot here again?

No problem. But first let go of me!

I don't want you to go, I want you to never have come.

You’ve put us all on a path there’s no way off of.

Oh yeah? Well, watch me get off of it.

It's not like I need

another damn sick person in my life.

I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANY MORE FROM YOU.

I DON'T WANT YOU TO SAY ANOTHER WORD.

I just want to make sure you don't forget anything.

Are you sure it's really me you're talking to?

Because you seem foggy about things.

You’re not turning off your light?

I think I’d like that, to have your mouth.

I want your mouth on my pussy.

Don’t you want to?

You never really liked it, it seems to me.

You have been absent for a year.

Don't start with that again.

And then you come back, and honestly,

you’re almost more absent than when you were sick.

You delude yourself all day long. You don't pick yourself up.

You act like Karine isn't there. Your own daughter!

And I'm not even talking about me ...

And you want me to do that to you?

If I had asked the same thing

when we were married,

after having been absent and cold,

if I had asked you to do that to me, what would you have said?

I don’t know.

What would you have said to me?

You never asked me.

What would you have said to me?

Don't yell at me.

I would have said no.

And then, if I asked you,

because it's been a year since anyone has touched me,

because it wasn’t me who was sick, I was in perfect health,

with needs and desires,

what would you say to me?

I would say no too.

There you go.

Good night.

Oh! Shit!

Are you walking your big dog?

Whoa!

Yeah ...

I'm trying to clear my mind while waiting for news from the Atikamekws.

Are you leaving Beijing?

Drank too much?

Just enough.

Ah ... is there anything better than that?

I'm thinking of only good things.

I am a happy drunk,

even if my life is over.

Hmm... Even if I don’t have heels anymore.

Come, I'll take you home.

It’s okay.

You're going to hurt yourself.

Come on.

I live right near here.

Come on!

Give me that.

Ah!

Hold on to me.

Tighter.

That’s better, right?

Yes, it's better.

Has it been a long time since you’ve been carried like this?

Uh, a very long time.

Hey, not that way!

I'm showing you a shortcut.

The big day.

What exactly do you want?

To congratulate you, of course!

You’re going to be mayor of Fatale-Station.

I can't wait to do business together.

Do you remember your father?

He threw a party every year

at the end of the summer:

with big tables set up,

musicians, waiters, and wine.

The unease and excitement

when they saw all the bottles on the tables.

We didn't see that often back then.

I was too young,

but I know that people always wondered

if there was going to be liquor or beer for once.

You see, that's why you and me

could never get along.

Because there was wine at my house?

No, because in your family,

you open people’s mouths and make them drink anything

without thinking if that's really what they want.

This is my nomination for the election.

The copies are already at the town hall.

I just have to make a phone call and I'll be in the race

against you.

I never wanted to be mayor,

but if necessary, I will run.

I'm taking care of it. Go give your speech.

It's a big day for him.

Yes, yes, I understand.

Showing what you’re worth is the job of a lifetime.

What exactly can we do for you?

Nothing extraordinary,

just continue like it is now.

The City consults me for its big decisions.

I want to be able to give my opinion.

And if I have a special project to submit to the municipal council,

I want to be sure to have an attentive ear.

That all seems legit to me.

There won't be any problems I can assure you.

I commit to it personally.

Well you aren’t the mayor?

It's all the same.

Do you want me to get rid of this?

Sure, go for it.

Hey! I don’t want to disturb you.

Not at all. What’s up?

I don't have time to explain,

I'm expected elsewhere,

and I can’t be late.

I'll come back later, if you're free then.

Of course.

Can you put this in the fridge?

What are we celebrating?

It’s a surprise. But it's thanks to you in part.

Well then!

Are you going to come alone or with your wife?

No, Johanne is ... busy tonight.

I really have to go!

I'll wait for you.

- Thank you! - Well done!

Thank you!

Uh, thank you!

Hey!

Five minutes left until the fateful hour.

I would have liked it if someone had had the courage

to run against me,

but I’ll take it all the same, this victory.

Thank you! You’re very, very kind.

Thank you so much!

Let’s chat a bit,

time will pass faster, and we’ll celebrate afterwards.

Bobby Desbois is even here to play us a song.

Yeah!

So,

I was born in a village called Fatale-Station.

I grew up with its houses, streets, shops,

trees, geese, bears, and with all of you.

Yeah!

The day before yesterday,

something very serious happened to us,

something that deeply shook me.

There’s someone among us who planted a bomb

near the Natives’ roadblock.

And without a certain someone, whom I won't name here,

who neutralized it in time, God knows what would have happened.

What's going on with us?

What’s happening to us?

Where does this violence come from, this contempt?

I don't want to blame people right and left

and say "we should have" or "we could have"...

I want this to stop here, now,

today.

Because the time for change has come.

It's time to transform ourselves.

It's time to dust ourselves off,

it's time ...to reinvent ourselves!

Hey, there are three minutes left!

Sorry!

Excuse ...

Excuse me, Jean-Pierre. I’d like to say a few words.

Now is not the time, François.

No, no, let him speak.

Really, I'm sorry.

I know that ... you have been waiting for this moment for a long time.

Uh ... Jean-Pierre’s right!

What's going on with us?

But aside from the bomb,

what concerns me is that the police tried to cover up the matter,

to pretend like it never happened.

A journalist confirmed it to me.

He has his sources at headquarters,

and he told me where it came from.

Like the order to have the roadblock cleaned up in the middle of the night.

If something like that’s happening with us

and is being hidden from us,

then there’s something I’ve missed.

If someone is able to make the police lie

so that the truth doesn’t come to light,

it’s because I lacked vigilance,

that I failed in my task.

For that, I sincerely apologize.

And I swear

that it will never happen again

if you decide to vote for me in 30 days.

An election campaign is the time to turn the microphone over

to those who cannot be heard otherwise.

And I don't want to deprive Fatale-Station of this experience

when there are just the voices of the strongest being heard.

It was not my intention, I swear.

I really wanted to withdraw.

But I couldn't let it go.

You’ll vote with your heart, as usual.

And if I lose,

I’ll be pleased to support Jean-Pierre.

But at least we’ll have debated.

We’ll have had the chance to say eye to eye

what we want for our city

and for the future of our children.

We’ll have talked.

Thank you!

Sarah, it's me!

If you have any bile left to spew,

find another garbage can!

I want to talk to you!

Not me.

Sarah! You know that I can knock down a door.

You remember I have a gun, I hope?

Look, I can't tell you everything.

So try "I'm sorry" for starters.

For years I thought that I was okay,

that I was doing alright.

And now, you’re here in Fatale,

and all of a sudden my whole life looks shady.

There are people that I haven’t been able to protect around me ...

out of cowardice, out of personal interest ...

And now I’m stuck with fucking debt

that I can’t pay, dammit!

Are you there?

What do you want from me?

What do you want me to do?

I want you to know that I'm here for you

if you need something.

All that for this!

If the person looking for you finds you,

I won't let him get close you.

I'll be the first on the line to protect you.

Look, I don't want to know why,

and I'll ask you for nothing in return or almost nothing.

Maybe just to put in some hours

from time to time at the restaurant.

I like that, watching you on the floor.

I can be there every day,

from opening to closing.

That's all that I'm asking for.

Wow. I don't know if you're going to be so bold

when you find out about the salary.

Always so beautiful for an aperitif or ...

if a gentleman comes to play the shaker?

Well ...

NO CLIMBING

He’s got an eye, this guy.

What do you mean?

Nothing.

Okay, well, I'm going to leave.

Thanks.

See you tomorrow?

See you tomorrow.

Okay?

Yeah!
