All language subtitles for La fièvre 105

Previously on The Trigger...

You wanted Marens
to sell before the game?

Why not?

- As long as his toy works, he’ll keep it.

A raid at Racing Club
one week before a key game,

isn’t that biased treatment?

It’s an inquiry.

Assist and goal!
The Turks are already leading 1-0!

Calling on fans is a great idea.
You might raise the funds.

- Make Racing a cooperative?
- France will love it.

You want power.
And you’d set society on fire to get it.

Civil war with what?
We don’t have guns in France.

Overton.

The ideas that the public is willing
to consider and accept.

- Bearing arms isn’t inside.
- That’s her strategy. Widen the window.

THE TRIGGER

Look!

Everyone keeping up?

We’ll stop here.

Everyone stop.

Gather round. Is everyone here?

This is the mail room.

Meet Denise and Yvette,
who are volunteers.

They deal with autograph requests,

jersey signings, fan mail...

Yvette is also on the cooperative’s
board of directors.

Yeah, but what is a cooperative?

- A company, but different.
- That’s a lot of help!

True, it’s different,
but how exactly?

There’s no boss.

Right.
There’s a president, Mr Marens.

But he doesn’t own Racing.
Everyone owns it.

The investors,
employees and fans.

There’s something else that's different.
Any ideas? Anyone?

- Yes?
- People vote.

Yes.
Power is shared democratically.

Everything is voted on.

There are five types of membership.
Founder members, employees...

Bianca! Catch him, please.

Come here.
Here, Ramon!

- I’ll show you how it works.
- No.

Not in the office. Come here!

Ramon!

Your paint stinks.

- Go outside.
- The sponsors are there.

They’re deliberating.
We’ll head to the sports wing.

Yeah!

Having members as shareholders
galvanises investors.

- Put him on a fucking leash!
- He gets neck rash.

For starters, 26 million.
Control the mutt!

Happy birthday to you,

Happy birthday to you,

Happy birthday, dear Gerard,

Happy birthday to you!

Sabrina and Malik
can speak after Mam.

Yeah, I just have a question
for Kenza.

Is Fode still a negmarron,
or what?

Because he’s back with his boss
playing “Happy Multicultural Family”.

We should be honest.
He’s a fucking traitor.

- What would we gain?
- Something you’ve lost, honour.

By defending Fode?
Defending a native is losing honour?

Fode? A native?
You’re still his cocksucker!

Yes, I am. I’ll suck off anyone
who can promote anti-racism.

- Legislators...
- And the people?

The poor, the deprived.
What about them?

- Success isn’t traitorous.
- And the guys from the projects?

We just burn jerseys
and get arrested?

- You’re not the one on trial!
- We pay your legal fees.

And my honour! What about that?

You know what?
Do your beauty pageant without me.

Have a nice day.

Wait, we’re not done yet.
In short, it’s about the dog.

- It’s not on.
- What?

He clings to me.
He’s destroyed every chair in my office.

- Ramon is sweet.
- I like dogs, but not here.

Keep him on a leash,
or we’ll ban pets.

No, you can't do that!

Fine, let’s vote.

Who votes for Ramon on a leash?

Who votes against?

Are you okay?

Mam is completely
under De Gamey’s thumb.

- Whites again.
- Not whites. Men.

Listen to his words.
“Cocksucker, beauty pageant...” Fuck.

- De Gamey is first and foremost a guy.

He saw Fode as competition.

Before Fode, who was our star?
He was.

Fode changed that.

He feels neglected,
so now I’m a “cocksucker”.

He feels cheated on
and he’s angry.

Kenza.

- Yes?
- They’re all really wound up.

- I ducked out.
- Wound up?

He says the projects
are at the heart of the struggle.

Native” doesn’t mean rich and famous.
Truth is always revolutionary.

And Fode is a traitor to his race.

- A colonial puppet.
- Is that it?

No, wait...
You’re an assimilationist.

You represent elitist indigenism.

We must contact our followers fast.
Getting our version out first is vital.

- I’ll message the group chat.
- No, it’ll blow up.

We’ll make calls.

Hi, Koumba.
It’s Kenza. Do you have a minute?

#Arms

Okay, here’s the deal.
This meeting’s filmed.

Give me any trouble,
I rat you out.

Payment’s in cash or crypto.

Half now, half when the job’s done.
Are we good?

I’m Marie.
And this is Thomas.

- Yellow Submarine. Are we good?

Okay, shoot.

- You know Charlotte Pajon?
- No.

Phones don’t work here.
Security.

- What’s her name?
- Charlotte Pajon. P-A-J...

That’s her, 63,000 followers?

Yes.
She heads a militant feminist group.

High profile.

- You’ve seen The Truman Show?

Truman doesn’t know
he’s living in reality TV.

His world is a studio set,
all fake.

His friends, colleagues, family
are actors. All fake.

I want to do the
same with Charlotte.

Reshape her virtual
reality to influence her.

Infiltrate her online life
with fake accounts?

- Is it technically possible?
- Sure, but it’ll cost you.

She’s big.
You’ll need a bot army.

- There’s also her echo chamber.
- Echo?

In activist bubbles like hers,
information circulates in a vacuum.

Hack in and you can
twist the echo however you want.

Basically, if everyone says the
sky is blue, it is. Even if it’s not.

Filter bubble. It’s cognitive.

- What a wonderful era.
- Again, it’ll cost you.

There’s prep work.
Targeting key accounts...

- Her inner circle.
- Will it show?

Astroturfing always shows
unless we’re careful.

We create the bots slowly,
make them look real.

Cherish them like hothouse plants.
As I say, it’ll cost.

And to get it in three months
will cost me too?

Don’t worry. Money is no object.

I like you a lot.

So let’s get started.

Bounty Bar

Fode!

- We’re leaving.
- What is it?

You said if it started again,
we'd leave.

- We can’t just go.
- Really? Read the comments.

I won’t stay
in this shitty country.

You said you’d transfer to Spain.

- But that was before.
- Before what?

- The cooperative. It’s too important.
- More important than family?

- No, but things are good.
- Yeah, just great.

Let’s open up the Bounty Bar...

- It centres around #BountyBar.
- Black outside, white inside.

- And Kinsky?
- No comment.

Nor Chelbi.

Kid’s stuff. We’ll leave them to it,
wait for it to die out.

And if it starts another identity war?

It’s a tiny bubble.
Even Chelbi’s ignoring it...

Leave them to it.

The far-right is using #BountyBar too.
About Pascal.

It’s uniting haters on both sides.
So in the real world, we’ve won.

We stay out of it.

Kenza?

Fode? Sure, it’s disappointing.
Journalist, hang on.

I thought Fode was our Muhammad Ali,
but he’s only Cassius Clay.

It’s upsetting.

Racialised people need public figures
committed to the fight.

Sure, you can quote me.

Thank you, have a nice day.

What did you want me to do?
Lose the whole movement?

You saw how the others reacted?
Kouma, Jahel?

We have to suck it up
and wait it out.

You need to switch off your alerts.

I did,
but I still get hate messages.

- Chelbi is stirring things up.
- Cassius Clay, I saw...

- Look on the bright side.
- What?

If they’re insulting you
it’s good, legally.

You need to prioritise.
First, the preliminary inquiry.

No.
My priority is Fatou.

She gets all the alerts.
She’s at home, seeing all this shit.

Go home, stay with her.
Get some air.

See a movie.
Turn off your phones.

- I’m asking for a transfer.
- If you leave, the cooperative is over.

- I can’t lose Fatou.
- This is a bad time.

But I swear it will pass.
We’ll win.

Remember when we first met?
You said a crisis lasts 72 hours.

- Yes.
- Four months ago.

I can handle it.
It’s my mess.

But my family deserves better.
I’ve got to protect them.

Waiting it out has failed.
We need a new tactic.

Chelbi’s involved
and Fode wants out.

- Not Fode, Fatou.
- Fatou equals Fode.

If he goes, the club is over.
The cooperative won’t survive.

We need to get in the fight online.

- We protect our own.
- Cooperative solidarity, unity.

Everyone here supports Fode.
He sees that, he’ll stay.

You’re thinking Fode. Think Fatou.
She’s fleeing the haters.

If we fight this shitstorm
with another shitstorm,

we make a hurricane
and Fode goes.

Okay, I have an idea.
Forget social media.

At Saturday’s home game

the players hold up a banner
against all racism.

Good idea.
It’s not insulting, it’s measured...

- What does “all racism” mean?
- “Bounty Bar” is racist.

If we have to explain
it reignites the debate.

And it might revive
the “anti-white racism” spat.

And we’re back to the headbutt,
“dirty toubab”, far-right hatred.

Imagine Fatou.

She’s running from hatred.
She needs love.

Exactly, on her phone, on TV,

in the papers,
Fatou must see France’s love for Fode.

- We set up a big national hug.
- Seriously?

What Fode’s been through
is heart-rending.

His resilience, his suffering...

A big tell-all, with lots of media hype.
The victim card.

So everyone understands
why Fode and Fatou are leaving France?

No. Victims evoke compassion,
not love.

- What’s that?
- It’s Ramon.

I’ll take him for a walk.

I’m totally lost anyway.

Come on.
Here, Ramon.

How pretty!

At the centre is Pajon’s account.
She’s the sun.

The ones around it are her followers.
Her planets.

When she tweets,
they retweet as one man. Or woman.

- Where are we?
- Here, there, everywhere.

Since we started,
she’s gained 3943 followers.

That’s 20% infiltration.
She’s taken the bait.

She follows 242 of our bots.
Great.

- Where's our pilot fish?
- It’s there.

- In yellow.
- Great!

Our main bot, Kill Bill,
is now an online feminist star.

It’s a source
of gender-inequality stats.

Even the government follows it.
As do 90% of Charlotte’s followers.

- Can I see how it looks?
- Of course.

Kill Bill is our flagship.
Our trump card.

What’s that blue and purple thing?

It’s the Twitterverse.
Charlotte likes hiking.

- No link to feminism...
- Exactly.

If two seemingly
unrelated universes meet,

she’ll follow.

So I’ve infiltrated @SophieTreks
and @MyFavoriteHikes.

©MyFavouriteHikes...

How about a hero?
Take mythology, kids’ stories, Marvel...

- Everyone loves a hero.
- Marcus whatsit...

- The Englishman who set up a foundation.

Marcus Rashford,
royal medal at 23.

He set up a foundation, raised millions
to end child food poverty.

Bingo. Now he’s a hero.

Like that French comic.
We just need to find a cause.

- Hospitals, sick children?
- What’s the connection to Fode?

- Rashford knew poverty, it fits.
- A hospital charity exists.

Opposing violence in sports?
That fits.

It fits so well that we loop back
to the headbutt.

I’ll be back.

Hey, Yvette.
This is too much overtime.

- Are you okay?
- Yes, yes.

It’s just that some are so..

But then
get weepy over anything!

- We’ll read them all.
- All?

All.

We created the cooperative
by asking for their help.

Now it’s our turn to help them.

- Look.
- That’s great.

Funny. Optimistic.
Determined. Exceptional.

That one too.

“Keep playing with passion and pride.
We believe in you. With all my love.”

“Your hard work and determination
inspire me.”

In each game...

Fode, there’s a Racing fan

who drives his bus
around French villages delivering books?

Romain, a teacher,
and three volunteers.

There are no libraries
in remote areas.

Books are expensive.
Many people can’t afford them.

If you win today,
all bonuses go to help Romain?

Yeah, the whole team was moved.

- So this match is for them.
- Congratulations, sounds great.

I’ll let you go.
Good luck!

Thanks, Anne-Laure. Take care.

There’s a forest
being bought up by developers.

The locals need our help
to keep it a public space.

- SOS Forest.
- SOS Forest.

We sponsor free French classes for all.
So we need more teachers!

We're used to selfish,
millionaire football players,

egotistical, self-centred...

And we’re still grumbling?
I like these Care Bears.

I’d like more.
They’re generous, they reach out...

For once, I agree.
It’s like taking names off the jerseys.

It’s symbolic
because football is a team sport.

- Like we’re a team.
- You’d die for your teammates

I don’t sing,
dance or tell jokes. I coach.

It’s Meals on Wheels,
you can’t turn it down!

Yes, I can.

Back to Yvette.
And now Herve.

- I see you’re moved.
- Sorry, of course I am.

People tell me that I’m oversensitive.

Don’t change, Yvette.
Thank you so much.

The approach is working,
eight home matches, six wins!

- It drives the players?
- Yeah, I think so.

Racing has a special team spirit.
It’s about solidarity, comradeship.

It’s not just how we run the club.

It’s much more.

It’s an identity.
A way of seeing the world.

What unites, not what divides.
Similarities, not differences.

Look, Dad’s number 19!

- In France’s top 50 celebrities.

I’ve come back for you.

I knew...

I knew that we couldn’t

get by without each other.

I’ve come back for you.

I haven’t changed much.

Not too much.

Meanwhile, I see that for you

the years

have been

kind.

Mr Handsome!

We were at war...

It’s Mother Teresa on Twitter,
that’s his club.

“Yippee, we all love each other!
Have a lollipop!”

- Who’s she on about?
- Her rival.

Mother Teresa
can’t fight the Zeitgeist.

Kill Bill is on trend.
Anger, fear and injustice drive people.

The key emotion now is resentment,
not soppiness.

I’ve got it.

3 January.
First femicide of the year.

Rage.

I want to vomit.
I want to scream

I want to cry.

Not commas, full stops.

- And the hashtag?
- #FirstFemicide.

The perfect bait.
Send in the infantry.

- They might spot the bots.
- Just one tiny regiment.

Tweet posted.

Kill Bill 3 January
First femicide of the year...

There’s cake, if you like.

All right.

I’m so happy to see you.

About the test...

Don’t talk about it.

Okay.

- How about orange juice?
- No.

Adam.

You’re highly sensitive
and intelligent.

Don’t put yourself down
over a test.

It’s not that.
I have zero friends.

I can't blame it on being special,
I’m just a pain.

- They all say so.
- Who’s “they”?

- The whole school.
- But your birthday...

No one was at my birthday.
I didn’t invite anyone.

And I didn’t want you to worry.

The yellow deepens
as it gets retweeted.

Charlotte’s bubble is a great echo chamber.
And #FirstFemicide is going viral.

People are like teens.
Desperate to be on trend.

- Frantic to be like their friends.
- Charlotte still hasn’t reacted.

Then we send in the runners!

The runners.

Foot soldiers who carried messages
during the war.

I know our school system is dire,
but feel free to educate yourselves.

Charlotte is the commander.
The dispatch is from Kill Bill.

- I’ll tag her so she gets an alert.
- At 8 a.m.?

With 83,000 followers,
the first thing you do is check your phone.

How many alerts, tags...

How many mirrors say
you’re the most beautiful.

People used to want love.
Now they need it all the time.

It’s their key source of endorphins.

Kill Bill 3 January.
First femicide of the year...

#FirstFemicide

Sunrise over the battlefield.

Gentlemen, when people hear
you were at the battle of Charlotte Pajon,

they’ll salute you.

- Where are we going?
- We’re almost there.

If you redo the test,
the results will change.

I just want to know
where we’re going.

It’s normal to search for an identity.

It’s comforting,
but it stops you growing.

- Mum, stop.
- I’m your mum, just doing my job.

- Helping my son.
- I can’t take this!

I get it. You thought
“I’m an outsider because I’m gifted.”

But “sensitive” and “awkward”
aren’t just for the gifted.

So I get all the crap
and zero perks?

If you were gifted you’d think
“I’m too intelligent to be happy.”

And you’d stop trying.
But now you can get better.

- Great.
- Psychoanalysis does work.

- Talking helps.
- We’re not going anywhere, are we?

- It’s a trap, so you can talk.
- Sure.

Rat you out for kidnapping!

Humour isn’t part of the test
but it proves great intelligence.

You can be smart
and still be dumb.

I know smart people
who are very dumb.

- Like who?
- Your father.

Can I see the trends?

That’s good. That’s really good.

It’s time Kill Bill spoke.

“An armed woman
isn’t a vulnerable woman.

Add our good old #FirstFemicide,
plus, #ltsSimple

and a sweet #ArmsForWomen.

- Pajon can’t back that.
- You underestimate Yellow Submarine.

Charlotte’s followers
support Kill Bill.

Her feed, infested by our bots,
will prove this.

“What?

“Geraldine’s retweeted
Kill Bill on guns?

“And Solene?
And Manon?

“Over 2060 likes?”

I’m with you, David.
First, she’ll play dead.

But our army will use all its guns
to get her to react.

Start out soft.

“Any thoughts on the tweet
about arms?”

People want to know.
She’s a feminist leader.

She’ll soon realise that standing back
won’t cut it.

Charlotte’s in deep shit.

Her silence looks bad.
So things get nasty.

“Charlotte Pajon, Twitter queen.
But suddenly no Wi-Fi.”

“Pajon, fake feminist.”
And so on and so forth.

They’re baying for blood.
She’s scared she’ll be cancelled!

Accused of being a traitor,
a phony!

And what are we online,
if not radical?

No one.
Charlotte likes being someone.

So she starts to doubt.

“But arming women to protect them?

“Seriously?”
Oh help!

Charlotte’s in a dilemma.

Look!
Know what that is?

It’s the chapel tower.
It’s amazing in real life!

Thank you so much.

The first stone was laid in '97.

Really?

Then they got delayed,
but they're using Medieval techniques!

You know the castle is supposed
to date from 1228?

- How many can they make a day?
- Three stones, max.

But the sculpted stonework
can take weeks.

- When will it be done?
- Nobody knows. Like back in the day.

Each step has a problem.

But one day
the castle will be finished.

A bit like you?

In six months, a year...
Your problems will be solved.

There'll be more.
But you’ll handle them.

Everyone deserves to be happy.
Go easy on yourself.

Like yourself more.
Don’t seek approval and it’ll be okay.

- I promise.
- Yeah.

- We attacked three hours ago.
- Teenagers only respond to punishment.

No one wants to be her friend now.
Tweet from @LouiseMichel75.

#ltsSimple.
#FirstFemicide.

#BoycottPajon.

Goodbye.

Ciao!

We rank second.

Of course Fode will make
the French team.

The coach of the French team
wants to avoid drama.

Coaches are all mad.
Take Pascal, his brain’s a total jungle.

Football managers, like everyone,
want a happy ending.

- Got to go, my taxi’s here.
- I’ll put Adam to bed.

See you at the announcement?
See you tomorrow.

- Sleep soon?
- I’ll just finish my chapter.

Okay.
Sleep well.

Mum?

Thanks, today was great.

See you in the morning.

# FirstFemicide #ArmsForWomen

# BoycottPajon #CharlottePajon

Thanks for your real activism

An armed woman
isn’t a vulnerable woman

Merciless feminist

First femicide of the year

Read about the threats
attacking our rights

“Conversations ended
with crude accusations.

“Nothing remained
but to withdraw into one’s self

“and keep silent
until the fever passed.”

And now for a book
highlighted by Phliosophie Magazine,

Old Age by Simone de Beauvoir.

It reminds us that in 1970,
life was already hard for seniors.

She also represents
women’s voices in a man’s world.

I wonder if she’d have endorsed
Charlotte Pajon’s post on Facebook,

just after the murder
of a mother in France,

the first femicide of the year.

Charlotte Pajon
is a left-wing essayist.

She’s radical, some say very,
with a huge following.

She’s a major influencer.

She’s taken a stance
similar to hardline American feminists.

She calls for the right
for vulnerable women to bear arms.

Charlotte Pajon ends her text
with words that resonate.

“Why arms?
To deter.

“No matter what we do, men kill.
National campaigns, men kill.

“Legal action, men kill.
Ankle monitors, men kill.”

This may be seen
as modern radicalism,

but it reflects the rage
of a generation

faced with
the recurring horror of femicides.

Will we soon see weapons
at feminist demonstrations

just as they once burned bras
in the days of Simone de Beauvoir?

Thank you, Claude Askolovitch.
It’s 8.53 a.m.

Taboo Radical

Pajon is just a rich kid
acting out.

- But it makes sense.
- It doesn’t.

You can’t bear arms
because you’re vulnerable.

It’s just in case, that’s all.

Most femicides are by men
already flagged to the cops.

Then what? A shopkeeper who’s been robbed
has the right to bear arms?

A guy who’s been burgled?
A bullied high-schooler?

It’s Kinsky’s spiel.

You know what happens next?

Everyone gets a gun
and blacks and Arabs are targets.

Shopkeepers aren’t victims
of systemic violence.

But we are.

We, the racialised people.

Question one...

Are racialised people under threat?

- Yes, but...
- No buts.

Every day,
racialised people face threats.

We’re victims.
Like women.

- And two, is it systemic?
- Yes.

So extending Pajon’s logic
to racialised people,

we should have guns too.

But hey, that exists.
In the US, black people have guns.

The result?

Is there less racist hate,
less police violence?

More people die.

My opinion piece with @DeGamay...

Arms For Respect. Sign the petition.

Arms For Respect

Racialised women and men of France
unite to say “Enough!”

Chelbi hasn’t signed it.

- It’s split.
- Like the feminists.

The older generation
are starting to attack Pajon.

That’s bad.
Each split amplifies the debate.

- Like with secularism.
- So Marie started with Pajon.

The neo-feminist bubble is perfect.
The press is all over it since #MeToo.

Same for anti-racism.

Just replace #MeToo
with #BlackLivesMatter.

- We need the club.
- On arms?

- That’s a bad idea.
- Got a better one?

Easy now.

- We need the club.
- Too political.

- They support mainstream causes.
- The board won’t vote for it.

The only thing
the club agrees about is Racing.

It’s about football.
We’re trying to protect them.

They’d lose sponsors and fans.
It would crush them.

You know the increase in anti-LGBT
attacks this year? 28%.

That’s women, minorities,
and LGBT gun owners.

- Shall we make a list?
- Firefighters, shopkeepers...

- Taxis, prostitutes...
- Marie’s strategy is streamlets.

As they converge,
the window widens.

We need to catch her off guard.

She thinks we’d never use the club.
So we will.

We have a chance to stop this.
We can’t be picky.

Tristan, you know I’m right.

We face this head-on.

On one side, the streams.
Shards of a fractured France.

On the other, solidarity, unity,
comradeship, Racing.

We fire up the real world.
Enough online madness.

The majority let crazies take power
for fear of...

Sam...
I’ll tell Francois.

Let’s go.

Ousmane Koita.

Kader Farudj.

Sydney Rousseau.

Samir Bellacene.

Arthur Neimann.

Eric Calvo.

Midfielders.

Basile Konta.

Theo Lebeau.

Ismael Mendy.

Fode Thiam.

Oh man, this is bad for my ulcer.

I can’t watch those matches.
I’m always afraid Fode will get hurt.

He was out for weeks
after Slovakia.

We’ll do it. I’m in.

The club will do it.
He explained Overton, it’s nuts.

There’s so much hate out there.

And I should throw you in it?

No.
