We only have time to go to Emile, for a coffee.

Come on. Let's move.

- Hello. - Hello.

Good morning, Emile. - Good morning...

Four coffees and fast, or we'll be missing the bus.

Good morning, dear friends. I know, you're late again.

I believe they're hot.

Missed. - Be quiet Jaco.

It's done. - Can you get an ice cube?

No. No ice in the morning. Choose, choose.

Hurry up. I want to show you a brand new motorcycle.

We have no time.

No, the bus hasn't arrived yet. Let's go, let's go.

Be quiet.

Look here. Be careful.

Uauu, what a beauty.

Take your hands off. It's a neighbours. I'm bying it.

Is it broken? - No, it's brand new.

He wants me to give him some chicken.

For this? And I'll be very successful.

I'm replacing the exhaust tube.

Instead of a different carburator, I'll make holes in the valves...

thus increasing it's power to 500, 600 cc...

Then, it will fly. Take your hands off.

And how fast will it go? - 3, 4 kilometres per hour.

Only 3, 4, kilometres per hour?

Yes, but if you go over 220.

It will be a big difference, if you go to work.

Then, you came on the right time.

My friends, I think you just misssed the bus.

THE BIG STORE

We'll catch it. - And there's plenty of seats.

Hey, it's okay, no? Normally we get out here.

Stupid.

Late again.

Your parents have died 3 times.

What excuse do you have now?

We're not late. It's the clock that is ahead.

Your clocks do not work? - Yes. Look at them.

So, there are 47 idiots here, who started 15 minutes before the starting time.

Get to work. - We'll tell them that you called them idiots.

Did I use this word? - Yes.

You have no shoe laces.

Do you think it will work this way? - And do you think I'm going to buy?

Pull harder.

Watch out! Stop.

My trousers.

Get to work, right away. - My sausage. - My lunch.

Get to work, quickly.

Hey, watch the clock. - It goes backwards.

What is now? - The clock works backwards.

Backwards? It's your brain that works backwards, yes.

Get to work. And and get quicker.

Two more hours.

Yes and then two more hours in the bus.

With a motorcycle, we would be home soon. - So, we need a motorcycle.

Is this a lawn mower?

No. It's a motorcycle.

Yes, I can see that. You'll explain that to the director.

The director is going to fire you all. He's going to receive all of you, now.

Sir, they are outside.

Gentlemen, please, come in.

You have been hired to make lawn mowers.

But this month you built three motorcycles.

But we do not sell motorcycles - In short, we are fired.

To be more precise...

The motorcycle production will stop.

No problem.

To make it easy, dear friend, goodbye.

Don't worry. You'll find four new guys.

No, the clean one. Bye.

We wouldn't go too far. Kisses.

So, can we kiss goodbye, with a drink?

With a drink.

Martine, six glasses.

I guess, I shook too much. I get another one.

Two. - Okey, two.

Lets go. Thanks for everything.

Goodbye, Martine.

We'll call you sometime.

Keep an eye on your team boss. He's an asshole.

Good evening, my friends.

You came early today . Everything all right?

No, on the contrary. - As always?

No. A big glass of water for me. - For me, too.

What's wrong with you?

The boss gave us champagne. - To the whole factory?

No, just to us. - Good news?

Yes, he fired us. - Fired you? Why?

We couldn't get along. Was a crazy day.

That's not the end of the world.

Fortunately, we still have our parents.

And they're counting on us. How are we going to tell them?

Get me some peanuts, please.

And some alcohol to sink your sorrows. There's plenty of work around.

Here in the neighbourhood? - Sure.

During the day, you see nobody.

Only women. The children are in school.

They do shopping, the domestic chores. Then, they get upset....

You could make this place, a tea shop.

Not all women who do not work, like tea.

Don't tell that to anybody.

If there are no men, we work for them.

What kind of work? - Any kind.

'Do you need anyone to fix this?'

'Do you know who can do deliveries?' Any kind of work, so.

A lot of work, get ready.

You have some talent. - And we, no?

I didn't say that.

I have something for you. And you do well.

And what is it? - Apartment renting agent.

Because this is far, the sales agents are not around.

The porters show the apartments. But that's not their jobs.

If there's someone in the place, it would be, then...

Number 3. There it is...

You come to see the apartment? - Oh, are you...? - Yes.

Good morning. - Good Morning.

This is the building. It's modern, isn't it?

Your apartment is on the top. It has a great view.

Is there an elevator? - Yes, there is. But it's out of order right now.

Do you want me to carry the bear? - No, because it falls all the time.

Here is your apartment.

I live here. It's that one there.

Here is the apartment.

You're the first tenants. It's really brand new.

The living room is enormous.

Here is the bedroom.

No, sorry. It's the washroom.

But it's big, isn't it? - Yes, it is.

Ideal for children's double deck beds.

They would never be quiet.

A kitchen totally equipped.

With an automatic garbage shoot. Very convenient.

You throw it in and ...

You put it in there and automatically goes down.

Good engeneering, hey?

Here, is a big closet.

Can't be like that, we want to sleep. Let us sleep.

They're for the maintenance.

But once you move in, they will be out.

What about heating? - Is on the ground. - Heating on the ground?

Works perfectly well.

Safe and clean.

And the window opens all the way.

The control for the blind is here.

This is crazy. - We won't open the window completely.

A bit will be enough.

I'll show you how it works.

That's perfect. - Yes. And there is a kindergarten.

Yes? Where?

I'll show you. - It can't be too far.

There it is.

In a parking lot. Isn't that dangerous?

In the park, the cars are stopped. This is the best place, right?

It makes sense.

And the walls are soundproof? - Absolutely.

You'll never know you have neighbors.

Ah, Mrs. Loney Have problems with your car?

I can't really go. I can't leave now.

But I'll send you someone.

He's a specialist.

If he works for you, You'll never want another.

Press on the clutch. - What? - Press on the clutch.

The clutch.

Good.

Are you ok? Where is my parts?

Start the car.

Accelerate.

Harder. Even harder.

What a stunning thing is, this car. - Shut up. Shut up!

And that's not all. There is a room.

It's the water chamber.

So. Will you take the apartment?

Are you showing the apartments?

No, no. It's the doorman.

Do not use the elevator to make deliveries.

But it is the twelfth. - Even if is the first...

That's the rules. - Oh yeah. The rules.

The rules.

Who is it? - Deliveries.

Follow me.

I want my mom.

I am tired.

The elevator didn't work . - You're tired.

Here, get a boost .

Drink this.

Do me a favour?

Test ride the motorcycle and tell me what you think.

Faster. Let's go. Faster.

Which way do I go? - Both ways, idiot.

You come? - Yes, I'm coming.

There he is.

NO WAY OUT.

What are you doing here? - I came here by accident.

Follow me.

If he can do it, so can we. - No, Marcel.

Is there any one else?

It's not easy, isn't it? - No.

It's my colleague. He's going to try too.

He's just a rookie. He's not very good.

What do we do now?

We continue. I'll count to ten. Let's go.

Jean, Jean-Guy, Phil and for me.

Take off your hands.

Not bad for amateurs, huh ?

For amateurs, not bad, what about your parents?

We'll say there's a strike. - We have many shortcomings.

And the deficit is greater because there were many losses.

A TV, 150 bottles of wine, various fines,...

repairs,... Here's the bill.

I thought I had received more money.

We will have to work the double, to pay.

That's going to be hard.

We really had no luck. - I have an idea.

And if we steal money from �mile's box.

Good idea . �mile , we need to steal money, from your box.

I'll show you something. Come here, Jean.

One night, a boy asked me a box of cheese.

So, I turned around, and he tried to rob me.

Give it a try. - A box of cheese.

We won't touch the money. - For sure.

In the 20 years that I'm here, just one person entered my registration robberies.

And several times. - Who?

The tax collector.

You've been here for 20 years? - A bit longer.

In the beginning there was no apartments here, only a few small houses.

On Sunday evenings, we would dance in the yard, in the woods.

Do you still participate in motocross competitions?

No, I stopped a few years ago and in full glory.

I used to ride on a 500 cc.

I made all the big competitions.

I never fell.

That's why I'm known.

I was brilliant. Practiced every day.

I had the legs full of strength.

During a contest on the coast, my rear wheel locked.

Went off the road and fell on top of a tree.

Not even a scratch. Absolutely nothing. Terrific, isn't it?

Crawled out of the tree and ploffff...

The engine fell on top of me . - Damn!!!

Six months in the hospital. - Stupid, huh .

So I came here .

And I 'm not leaving here, because...

What is ? What the... ?

You should take every opportunity. I will soon learn.

They want to take my skin. - How?

Why would someone establish in an area in front of my store...

after I've been here with my business, for 20 years?

This is a declaration of war against me.

They want to bring me down.

Sir, ... I h... - I'll be working on it.

But, Sir... - I'll get.

Forgive me, Sir

I'll clean it, Sir.

What? What? - That's it. Out...

Good. You can go now. You put one foot over here again...

and build a gas station. - A gas station in my store.

There you are, put it on. Asshole.

Put your foot here again, and...

I'll put my feet. See, I put my feet.

Hey Phil. Take this and buy something from me.

Buy what? Why? - Try to understand me.

I have not seen a customer for over eight days.

I want to hear the ringing of the cash register. - I'd rather go there.

Mr. Emile , it's a catastrophe.

I haven't seen a customer for over eight days. And you? - You're the first.

What do you want? What do you drink?

A white wine. A small.

It is the same for all businesses.

So lets gather tonight to take action.

And where ? - Here is the ideal place.

You're not going to miss, are you? - You pay the drinks, this time?

Password: " Who pays your debts? " - Goes bankrupt . - Come in.

who have just arrived.

The situation is bad . We must act.

This week we haven't sold anything . Absolutely nothing.

Not so. I sold something. - What?

My store . - What are you doing here, then?

The environment. It takes me again to the occupation and the resistance.

My childhood years.

So, I said : " We must act. "

Are you with me? - Yes.

Again, I was serious Give me a whip and I solve this.

We have to act within the law.

I suggest a demonstration.

Yeah, well organized. And disciplined.

With clear slogans with our...

legal requirements first.

Look at this. Is it yours?

Gerard, what do you do with this sign? - I'm advocating for Emile's store.

Come, carry my suitcase.

I told you not to come. - But, honey.

Are they inside? - Outside, they are not.

Gentlemen, I will solve your problems. -You're closing your store?

How much you make per month? - It's hard to say.

Look. I propose the following:

I'll give you 20% more for manager of the meat department.

Isn't it amazing?

And I can do this with all of you.

We need to think about it, but it sounds good.

Oh no. I will not take care of you.

Did I suggest you something? - You want war.

War? - You will have it. We'll be out there.

Emile, you have to understand. - Okay. I understand.

What happened? - What's wrong with him?

Don't you think you should hire me? - No, sorry. It's already full.

I think there are many robberies.

That's right.. - My shop never gets robbed.

I have a nose for it.

I don't ask you a salary. Only one percent of what I recover.

You're very confident of yourself. - I can prove it to you.

Will this be in old francs? - No, in new ones

You'll need a much bigger cup?

Go ahead.

This one, you better read yourself. I can't.

A public sale of my store.

They want me to retire already? No.

I have to attack. Are you with me?

Yes. - Let's renovate the store.

Bright colors, great lighting and pop music.

We have to get brilliant suits...

like the stars of showbiz. The customers will go crazy.

They will not buy anything. Just for fun.

And the goods? And the material?

Let's get it borrowed and return later.

Borrowed? - Yes, but discrete.

Gentlemen, we are at the end of the month.

People are broke and tempted to steal.

Double care. Ok? - Very well, Sir.

To your places. And keep your eyes open.

I'm upside down.

You like to drink water. - I'm on a diet. My liver.

So you can not drink alcohol? - My mother will pay.

Shoes size 44, it's hard to sell . - We'll try to find something else.

Watch out.

This is being fun. - And this is only the beginning.

Let's go back there. Only 44, ah, ah, ah.

That's not for me.

Valentine , they are coming. Keep your eyes open.

I am here . - Oh , you are there.

Get in position again.

Today is a fixed value. 50 francs per cart.

That's cheap. - No, 100 francs.

Thank you, sir.

Mam.

What are you doing?

Go beyond the cash registers. - Okay.

Be kind and once again look at the new rates.

Did you call me, Sir? - Yes, I want to congratulate you.

Thank you, Sir.

Since you've been here, we've been robbed three times more, than before.

The store is literally being stolen.

Yes, but I have a clue. - You are arresting innocent people.

My parents, the mother of the vice president.

And today, two plainclothes policemen.

But they were actually stealing.

Alright. You have two or three...

days of employment.

Thank you. It's the boys. They have many tricks.

Okey. Use tricks also.

Use tricks, use tricks...

Wake up! - I'm upside down. - Get straight, then.

Occupied.

Don't take too long.

Stop him. Stop him.

Stop it. Don't you see what's happenning? We have work.

There is no time for that now.

Sorry, but I'm on my lunch time.

Hello, Phil. Why are you half naked?

Hi, friends. It's hot, you know.

Not there. He's between the bottles.

Look.

I asked you to be discrete.

Yes, Sir, but they are there.

Do you think so? Where?

Solve this elsewhere. You're making a scandal.

Far away. In the parking lot.

Continue to shop ladies and gentlemen.

They already left. - We can drink here.

This one is empty. - Wait.

What was that?

GRAND OPENING AFTER RENOVATIONS

Very cute.

It's tastefully decorated

You're surprised, aren't you ladies.

Alright. But I'm in a hurry, Mr. Emile

And now to continue. People.

So, don't you have work?

If you can dance, you can start as a salesman.

I would like a liter of red wine. - Why, you have no more?

I came to see if you had it in the kitchen cupboard.

Gentlemen, in my office. - Any problem, Sir?

No, some minor modifications.

Are you ready? Can I open the door?

Put the music on.

I want you to sing better today.

I'll be out there . Hurry up . - We'll be soon.

There is nobody . - Why?

That's fantastic.

Public sale next week .

It's going to be desastrous for Emile . - We've got to get money.

That is easy . Even if we have to make noise.

Can you give me a few francs?

It is to buy the store . - No.

I know where there are bags of money. - Where? - In there.

Every night a gentleman picks up the money that was made during the day.

This takes place behind the store.

They do this for so long that they don't count the money anymore.

It is very easy.

We just have to attack . - It's too risky.

He's right. - We need more information.

We'll get the girls from the store. We'll go there on Sunday with...

...with Emile's bike. - Okay.

We talk and talk. - Bla bla bla.

And they tell us how it goes. - Yes.

Want to dance? - Ah, yes, where?

We know a place very good in the neighborhood.

I didn't ask menthol water, but grenadine.

Tell me what did you ask? - Menthol water

you do every day 5 million in cash register?

Yes, and there's still 50 more cash registers.

Are you planning a robbery?

Why do you think that?

Whenever I go out with a guy he asks me this question...

...and a few days later there is a robbery.

A robbery?

The gang Kawasaki has arrived.

They were here last week.

I'll talk to them, no? -Let them. Or else they break all this.

Gentlemen, no bikes here, please.

And we? And we?

Foi formid�vel. - Divertido.

Let's go, boys? - Sure.

Wait a bit, you will see.

It's your guy.

That's not mine.

Bravo.

Stop it, gentlemen.

The police. - Shit, the police.

Let's go.

What's happening . - He's driving.

And now ? - He turned right.

When he gets to the store tell us what's happening.

Okay , boss.

What is happening now?

But what are you doing? - What do you see now?

This way we won't get there. We only have three more days.

We have to see the van and the store at the same time.

It's our last chance.

We have all the information.

Does anyone have a plan? - A plan?

Nothing can fail. We always fail.

We're just searching.

I found a brilliant idea.

These guys are dressed as Santa Claus and hide the weapons in bags.

This is important to understand...

... and we get in from behind the store.

Can I say something before we go? - Yes , please.

In ten days is Easter.

No. Here is a genius plan

These guys get a tank and rob a bank.

They run down a wall and wear clothes they had in a suitcase ...

Do you know how to drive a tank? - Here's an acrobatic thing.

These guys jump out of a bridge to a truck.

Then entering hidden in the truck to the store.

I have another one, for just two guys.

We go to the store as ordinary customers.

We will get dressed in the WC. - Can't we get dressed somewhere else?

And exit the WC as...

..warehouse workers.

We enter the store through the front door discreetly.

Once you discover two people dressed like you,

get the carts.

You open the back door and the people collecting the money will show up.

Give them 5 bags of paper, they'll think they got the money and will leave.

Then put your stockings in the head,

get the money that the employees have...

and show them your guns.

I didn't understand. - Our guns? - Our guns.

Our guns. They're here.

I won't use this. - Don't worry. They're Japanese toys.

It's fake, I do not take risks. - But we also do not take risks.

You lock the employees in the freezer, and flee.

While Jean-Guy and I slow down the auction.

Everything okey? - Everything, thank you.

Ladies and gentlemen, we will start with the sale of the store.

We'll sell the store bit by bit, in an auction.

I'll begin with this table...

I'll use it for the sales. I'll start with 10 francs.

Who gives more? - Twelve. - Twelve francs. - Fifteen.

Twenty. - Fifty.

Fifty, one. Fifty two, Fifty three. Sold.

It's yours.

And now a big mirror with allegorical decorations.

A bit naive. Starts with a 1,000 francs. - Who gives more?

1300. - 1600. - 1900.

2000. One , two, three, times . Assigned to you.

But I did not buy anything.

Now a beautiful wardrobe with crockery that is probably all porcelain.

Unfortunately empty. Starts at 400 . Who offers more?

450. - 500. - 500 one, 500 two,...

Three. Sold. - Who said that?

Put this parrot outside.

Stay away from the parrot. This is still my store.

Then I sell the parrot . - You have no right.

But I sell the support . - Possibly . Jaco , come here.

A support.

They're coming in ten minutes. Do you remember everything?

Yes, I have everything written. - Very well.

Jean-Guy and I'll try to delay the sales, as much as we can, but hurry up.

You can also come with us. - No, we do as agreed.

Let's go. - Good luck.

Did you talk to her? - No.

And now we have sell the store.

Finally. - I would like a glass of water.

Please. - Thank you.

Let's begin... The starting bid is 100 000 francs. Who gives more?

200 000. - A cookie, sir?

We also have with cheese. A cookie?

250 ... - 260. - 270.

What is inside? - Cheese. - Cheese?

280. - 280.

300. - 300. - 310.

310. 310?

320.

It's that way.

420. - 420. - 430.

430 for you. - 440. - 440 for you.

440 000 francs for this shop.

Who gives more? Well?

So, I have to assigne this, ladies and gentlemen. Come on.

Come on. I have to assigne this. - 440 000. Attention.

440, once.

440 twice, 440... 450 000 there, on the right.

450. - 460.

460, 470 on the right. - 480.

So far, so good. - Oh, the alarm. It is for us...

830. 840. - 850.

850, 850 000 francos.

I'll have to assign. 850 000. Who gives more?

I'll have to give in, sir. 850.

850 once, 850 twice,... 860.

There they are? We must hurry. - Quickly.

Give us your bags quickly. Come on. Come on. We deceived them.

We still have 10 seconds.

The socks.

The bags.

A bag will suffice? - Yes.

Let's get out of here.

900 000... - There, they are.
