THE GAME IS OVER

Do it again, for me.

Stay still.

Attack!

[Skipped item nr. 5]

Does this silly morning workout really do anything?

"Starting in their twenties...

"women need to watch their figures.

"Muscle tone..."

- But... - Shut up.

Your husband has strange habits.

He set his dogs on me.

Think it's funny?

- They stop when he blows the whistle. - What if the whistle's blocked?

No more Maxime.

I wonder if I'm anything more than just an object to him.

He must have decided to have a son, 22 years ago...

and had one with my mother.

Then...

he checked the box marked "son," and here I am.

What about me?

He checked the box marked "wife," and here you are.

Was he sad when your mother died?

I don't know. I was 2 years old.

He might have been angry.

He doesn't like to lose.

Good dog.

Lie down!

NATIONAL SCHOOL OF ORIENTAL LANGUAGES

- It's okay. - I'm an idiot.

Renee!

- Did you see that? - That?

I'm going for it. Watch me.

Get out!

- I told you to get out! - Okay, but with you.

You drive a Jeep. You're in the army?

Student.

- What are you studying? - Russian.

So why the Jeep?

It goes everywhere, dents bumpers when I park...

and traffic wardens think it's an army vehicle.

So, you're not in the army.

Maxime! Are you coming tomorrow?

What did she say?

"Hello my dear Maxime! I'm in love with you!"

- Seriously? - Yes, absolutely.

- You really think so? - Look at her.

She adores you.

And so she should.

- Will you have a lot of children? - Only boys.

- Know how much Anne's dad weighs? - 80 kg?

20 or 30 billion.

- I see. - Tell me...

why did you come to get me?

I have a favor to ask.

- Will you do it? - Ask me.

- Will you do it? - I'll do it.

- Promise? - Okay, I promise.

It has to do with Armand.

He wants to see me tonight. He needs to talk.

- That moron knows how to talk? - Shut up.

- Talk to you about what? - Him, me...

About him and me.

"We should go away together, Renee."

I see. You want me to come along?

Don't be stupid. No.

I've decided to break up with him.

It'd be easier if you were there.

Will you come?

Out of the question, old lady. Find someone else.

You're furious because I'm cheating on your father.

- Aren't we going back to my car? - Ask the chauffeur, or take a taxi.

Thanks a lot.

I'm meeting my Chinese friend.

He must be getting impatient.

Chinese people, especially this one, hate waiting.

Well!

What do you do with your Chinese friend?

Tell me.

It's a mystery.

Let's give it a try.

- Not quite. Mr. Saccard? - Yes?

Listen carefully.

That's it. Perfect.

Could you teach me a Chinese song?

Certainly.

Here's one.

Let's try it.

- Feel like a drink? - It'd do me good.

Why's that?

If I'd stumbled, that dog would've ripped me apart.

That's why you should never stumble.

How's business?

- Not bankrupt yet? - Not yet.

You're ruining other people?

- For now. - Perfect.

Still interested in the Third World?

I'm having dinner with them tonight.

- With your wife? - No.

Life is empty without you - goodbye! Your lover - armand

Hello.

Can you believe...

someone just tried to kill me.

A political attack?

Any suspicions?

None.

I'll get my Chinese friend to investigate.

Could he also investigate my poor lover's suicide?

Everything okay, kids?

Did I hear gunshots?

Your wife tried to kill me.

Unfortunately, I missed.

Did you eat at the Negroes'?

With important Africans, not Negroes...

at the lvory Coast embassy.

It was effective, as Maxime would say.

Heard the one about the Congolese who goes to the UN with a wheelbarrow?

The ambassador told it.

You've heard it? Damn. Blacks love telling black jokes...

I might go to the lvory Coast this month. You're invited.

There's a fantastic hotel with a zoo and a pool...

- You built it? - He no build hotel.

That not his line of business.

You go with him to lvory Coast?

- Will you stay long? - Three or four days.

If it's just to see a hotel...

- You could go on a safari. - It'd be a nice change.

- Rather than firing at me... - I could kill monkeys. Same thing.

I'm off.

Good night.

Good night.

Here's a piece of evidence for your Chinese friend.

What's Maxime doing?

Go get him, please.

I'll try.

Ladies and gentlemen...

Hello.

Feeling good?

Could be better.

- You went to bed late. - 6:00 a.m.

- I had a great time. - Where?

At Castel.

We celebrated the armistice.

Really?

What armistice?

Two guys had a fight. We pulled them apart...

and celebrated the armistice.

Very cool.

You should come one night.

You're on your own, kids.

That guy is so annoying...

with his ridiculous rule...

that we have to be here for breakfast.

Family is family.

- To my office. - Yes, sir.

- I was looking for you. - Mr. Maxime...

- Where is the lady? - In her room.

- Is that for Mr. Saccard's Green Ball? - Yes.

Do I look handsome?

The Yellow Peril!

What happened to you? Is that a cast?

It's anti-wrinkle cream.

You look ridiculous.

And you don't?

What are you supposed to be?

Genghis Khan. 1162-1227.

Tartar conqueror! Mongol emperor!

- No way! - Dreaded for his cruelty and violence!

- It's not true! - A terrible despot, with no sense of humor!

- No sense of irony! - An idiot?

Wears his boots in women's beds!

- He's a lecher, too? - With his boots on!

- You're crazy! Stop! - 1162!

- 1227! - You're crazy!

Death!

Where is the last sutra?

- Tell me! - Have pity. Don't kill me.

Your lips, slave!

Have pity on a poor slave.

Genghis Khan knows no pity!

You can take my body, you tyrant, but you won't have my soul!

So...

I'll take...

your body!

I wear my boots in women's beds!

- What? - Open up!

That's enough, Maxime!

Death!

Hello, Maxime.

Well, well.

Is it you, Renee?

Yes, it's me.

- Where were you? - In China.

Tartaria. I just got back.

- Did you have a good trip? - Not bad.

It was a very pleasant trip.

I'll get changed.

I'll forgive your lateness because you're so beautiful.

Renee! Ravishing, as always.

See you later.

Madam is served.

Dinner is served.

- Have you seen Maxime and Anne? - They're in the winter garden.

Dinner is served.

Anne!

Maxime! Dinner is served!

Come here!

Dinner is served!

What?

Dinner is served!

What...

What are you doing?

My mother-in-law is crazy.

Look.

- She eats poison. - I was hungry.

You'll be sick. Spit it out.

All of it. Go on, spit.

If one day your egg were too hard or too soft...

would you fire the cook?

You don't boil eggs for a living if you don't know how.

Hello.

You didn't sleep well?

- Eat. You'll feel better. - I'm not hungry.

Eating poison takes away your appetite.

Poison?

She eats poisonous flowers in the greenhouse.

Should I call a doctor?

I'll be fine.

Lend me your car?

- Why? - I'm going for lunch.

- Your Jeep broke down? - It's an elegant lunch.

I'm supposed to look like Saccard's son.

What?

The key's in my purse, on the cupboard.

Where?

On the cupboard.

- Come and find it for me. - Look...

I'm in a hurry.

Maxime, stop it!

- Let me go! - Let you go? Okay.

I'll get even.

You know, Maxime...

I really tried to love your father, at first.

I tried, but I couldn't.

You know how proud he is.

One day, he gave me my own bedroom.

He never asked anything of me again.

- Don't you like my hair? - I don't like eating it.

- Do you think it's too long? - No.

- You prefer short hair? - I love short hair.

- Like Anne's hair? - Not especially.

That's when I met Saccard.

I come from a rich family.

By marrying me, he could go back to his business in Paris.

I just wanted to get out of there.

So, you saved each other's lives.

There you are.

You heard I liked whores.

What's your name?

Mimi Van Spoutnik.

How much?

Twenty.

Twenty what?

20,000 old francs.

Give me one night.

One night in a bed.

In a bed? What's the difference?

- Let's take a trip. - Where?

Wherever you want.

- How about Capri? - Perfect.

Why not Saint-Tropez or Deauville?

Saccard will know our secret within 24 hours.

You really have great ideas.

I plan to be back on Tuesday.

I'll send a telegram if I stay longer.

"Love and kisses, everything's fine. Stop. I love you. Alexandre."

Goodbye.

Have a good trip!

I'm going on a trip, too.

- You're leaving? - Where?

To Oloron, in the Pyrenees.

In a Jeep?

If you lend me your car...

and if your husband has no objections, I'll take you.

What's going on in Oloron?

My Chinese friend, Mr. Chou Kai Ming.

- He invited me. - He's from Oloron?

He's tired of Paris.

And it's a good place for rugby.

The season's starting. I'll see a few games.

I see.

Enjoy the rugby, kids. My greetings to your Chinese friend.

Let's go.

I didn't think you wanted to go away with me.

What changed your mind?

I don't mind deceiving him under his roof when he's home...

but taking advantage of his absence is immoral.

Utterly immoral.

I'll call Mr. Chou Kai Ming to tell him we're coming.

Are we off?

As soon as you're ready. I'll give the bicycle back to the postwoman.

I want to take the bed. Think the owner would give it to me?

I don't know. Why?

Because it's the first entire night I've spent with you.

I want to keep it as a souvenir.

Good idea. Great.

Shall we take a shortcut?

Is it on the map?

If it was on the map, it wouldn't be a shortcut.

- We're not late. - Exactly.

Luxury...

is having plenty of time for shortcuts.

- Take the shortcut. - Okay.

It's the most devious shortcut I've ever known.

It's out for a Sunday drive.

Shortcut, gentil shortcut

Shortcut, je te plumerai!

Shortcut comes back from war

Three shortcuts to Saint Eloi

Going to see another shortcut!

Shortcuts in the fields, blooming, blooming

Shortcuts in the fields, blooming in the month of May

The girls of Camaret all take the big road

But when they're in my Ford

They prefer my shortcut!

There was a shortcut

There was a shortcut

She didn't know which to choose

It's a little shortcut

- How about a kiss? - Ask me in Chinese.

The road disappeared.

Thanks again.

Goodbye.

It's Maxime.

Mrs. Saccard. You'll join us for a cup of tea?

Sir?

I'd love to, Mr. Chou.

First, we need to get our car towed out of the pond.

- You had an accident? - Nothing serious.

We just don't look very presentable.

My wife. Mrs. Saccard.

- Hello. - Mr. Maxime.

It'll be hard on a Sunday...

but Ho, my brother-in-law...

who works in Lacq, can help you.

They have lots of equipment there.

Show the lady to her room so she can get changed.

This way, please.

I'll drive you to the Lacq factory at dawn.

- What are you going to do here? - Here? Agriculture.

Agriculture.

- No children allowed. - No children.

Wait for me. I'll be back with Mr. Ho.

Look.

650 million!

In 10 years, there'll be nothing but Chinese here.

The avant-garde.

I love you.

I'll get away, thanks to Mr. Chou's friendship.

I really love you.

What are we going to do?

Get the car out of the pond...

and take the train back to Paris.

We can't do that anymore.

I'm scared, Maxime.

You're the first person I've met who's afraid to take the train.

We can't go on like before.

I don't want to go back to Paris.

You don't have to come with me.

You're free, after all.

- How did you get your film so fast? - Overnight.

I took it straight to the lab when we arrived.

I got it back today, after lunch.

You see? I screwed up.

No, it's good.

I'd forgotten about that!

Goodbye, Mr. Chou.

Goodbye, Mrs. Chou.

Goodbye, little Chou.

Thanks again, Mr. Ho.

I'm going to bed.

I'm dead tired.

What are you doing?

- I'm going to sleep with you. - You can't.

I learned bad habits from you.

When you do your groceries, buy Fruite.

Created by Evian, Fruite is a healthy, thirst-quenching drink for the whole family.

Don't look underneath.

There's nature inside a tall glass of Fruite.

- That hurts. - What are you talking about?

You really hurt me.

- Give me that key. - I ate it.

What if Saccard comes home suddenly?

There's no flight from Conakry tonight. I called Orly.

You know him. He could come via Moscow or New York.

Imagine him surprising us: "My wife with my favorite son!"

Good night.

Already?

What do you mean?

I thought you were coming tonight.

Change of plans. I came via Rome.

Coffee's terrible on the plane.

- Did the trip wear you out? - No.

- I have to go. - Where's the fire?

I have an optional class.

- I decided to go. - Great. Glad you're so keen.

Sure.

- Where's Renee? - In her room, I suppose.

- She hasn't come down yet? - No.

Did you bring me a souvenir from your trip?

Oh, sorry...

I forgot.

- What's wrong, Maxime? - Nothing. Why?

- You're acting like an idiot this morning. - Really?

I'm going to shave. See you later.

- Did Tonnerre eat yet? - Yes, sir.

He looks like he's better.

Were you awake when madam came in this morning?

Madam didn't go out last night.

Madam and Mr. Maxime stayed here.

- The dogs have eaten? - Of course.

You were the loveliest tonight, as usual.

Your neighbor didn't take his eyes off you. Spellbound.

- The Minister? - Yes.

What would become of me, without you?

I wouldn't worry about that.

A drink, before we go to bed?

I'm so tired, I can hardly keep my eyes open.

Good night.

What are you doing here? You scared me.

Why would I scare you? I was in the library getting a book.

Not tired anymore?

Where were you going?

I was getting some mineral water.

There's some on the table. You're absent-minded.

You're right.

How silly of me.

Good night.

You're very beautiful.

- Look, your dad. - What?

Your dad!

- Your dad! - He's doing fine, thanks.

No. There!

Hi, Anne.

You're alone? Renee's not with you?

She's at home.

Don't say a word.

What are you doing? Letting loose?

I was about to go home.

Come on. I'll buy you kids a drink.

Sorry, but I really have to go.

Find what you were after?

Another one?

You're trying to kill me.

You sure can hold your liquor.

Way to go!

What are you celebrating?

- Nothing. - That's no good.

- It's my stag party. - No kidding.

I'm getting married.

I don't believe it!

To who?

To Renee.

More precisely...

I already remarried Renee.

Hold on, Alexandre.

You mean you weren't already married to your wife?

In a way, no.

Know what I mean?

Here's to the young husband.

- What you mean is... - Exactly.

I was asking the neighbor for rice while my basement was full...

like the Chinese proverb says.

That's a Chinese proverb?

That's what they say.

Is it working?

With the young bride?

Better than ever.

Better than I ever imagined.

I'll have to buy you a wedding gift.

You're sure it's working?

Why shouldn't it?

Aren't you sleeping? I waited for you at breakfast.

I didn't sleep well.

I haven't been sleeping well lately.

Take some pills.

Maxime didn't come home last night.

That doesn't worry me.

If there's been an accident, I'd know about it.

That's not what I mean.

Twice this week, he didn't come home. It's a bit much.

Maybe he's in love.

Stop it!

- Come in. Who is it? - Your father.

Hi, Saccard!

- I have a present for you. - Really? Let's see.

Your present is next weekend.

I invited Anne Sernet and her parents to go duck hunting.

Are you happy?

Delirious.

Try to contain your enthusiasm.

Tell me, Saccard...

Did you want to spend a quiet weekend with Mr. Sernet?

To talk business with the banker?

Weren't you thinking:

"If I invite Anne...

"she'll convince Sernet to accept the invitation"?

- What's wrong with that? - Nothing.

Your business is my pleasure.

We share the work.

Double whammy!

You broke my record.

I'm torn between admiration and jealousy.

One doesn't exclude the other.

I'll choose admiration, anyway.

I've hunted a lot in Canada...

but I don't care for it anymore.

Anne, behind the reeds!

- How many victims? - She's a good shot.

Bull's eye every time.

Especially at night, targeting unarmed men.

- On, Renee! - Maxime!

Look out! The enemy!

Never do that.

I spent my two cartridges.

I know, but it's a matter of principle.

- What were you doing, dear? - I was on the phone with Nathalie.

She spends half her life on the phone.

She's at that age.

Think so?

Maxime hates talking on the phone.

Where is he?

I don't know.

In his workshop.

- I wanted to wish him good night. - He's not asleep. Go ahead.

I promised your parents to protect your virtue.

I'd be more concerned about Maxime's virtue.

Paul-Louis!

Keep your ears open in case I call for help.

Utterly sweet.

Your turn, Renee.

I've gained weight.

- You eat too much. - Too much comfort.

I'm rich, happy, intelligent...

- It's too much, isn't it? - Absolutely.

Can I come in?

Yes.

I'm going to play you a fantastic record, kids.

Please listen with rapt attention.

Honestly, I have to turn in.

Sernet would say: "Take advantage, but don't exaggerate."

Silence. Obey!

Tyrant.

Will you sleep with her tonight?

Who are you asking?

- You've slept with her? - No.

Swear it.

I swear.

You swear...

You'd swear to anything.

Why have you avoided me all week?

Why do you make sure we're never alone?

It's coincidence.

Will you coincidentally meet her in her room tonight?

- I'm not going to meet her. - Liar!

Don't lock your door. I'll be back later.

No. You're sleeping in Saccard's room.

I'll find a way.

I'll say I have insomnia and sleep in the living room.

Sure! Saccard will have insomnia, too.

He won't be able to find you and he'll get worried.

- Scandal. - So what?

Fine! I don't care if there's a scandal.

- Do you hear me? - Are you crazy?

- I don't want to sleep with your father. - Liar!

- Why do you call me a liar? - It's going well with my father, it seems.

- What do you mean? - You and Saccard have worked things out.

That's it.

That's not true.

Who told you that?

My father.

I was afraid.

I was afraid he'd find out.

You still love me a bit?

I love you a lot.

You know it.

- Do you love me? - Yes.

Are you happy now?

But you're running away from me. I know you are. Why?

Because of my father! You're used to deceiving him. I'm not.

That's how it is.

You're right.

Maxime, let's go away.

Anywhere. Wherever you want.

Let's go!

Sure...

Kidnap my father's wife.

I can't do that.

Can't you understand that?

- And if I weren't his wife? - What?

If I weren't Saccard's wife anymore?

If Negroes were white, we'd have no more black problem.

If I weren't his wife, would you leave with me?

Of course.

You went for a walk?

I'm thirsty.

Aren't you coming to bed?

I'm tired.

You can read if you like. I don't mind.

I want a divorce, Alexandre.

Are you serious?

Yes.

Are you bored?

Are you in love?

I want a divorce.

You must have a reason.

I want a divorce and nothing will stop me.

If I decide to, I will.

Do you refuse?

I haven't decided yet.

Pass me my robe, please.

Once you're divorced, what money are you going to live on?

My own money. I'm rich.

You're rich as long as you're Mrs. Saccard.

I don't understand.

You must have reasons...

your own reasons to get divorced.

But honestly, it's not in your interest.

I don't care about my interest.

I'll be very frank with you...

I invested your fortune in my business.

Your entire fortune.

I can't give it back to you right now.

My business is like a pyramid.

Remove one stone, the whole thing collapses.

- You've no right! That's stealing! - Take it easy.

No big words.

I have a better head for business than you.

You'll get your money back in double, or triple, one day.

My only mistake was to think we'd be married forever.

When can you give it back?

I don't know exactly. In two or three years.

That's impossible. I need that money!

- It's my right to ask for it! - Absolutely...

but it would only ruin us.

We'll be singing at sidewalk cafes while Maxime passes the hat.

You may not care about your own interests or mine...

but don't forget about Maxime.

What about the divorce?

Relinquish the assets I've invested. You'll have the divorce...

and a reasonable alimony.

That's blackmail!

I'm not asking you for anything.

You're the one who's in a hurry.

I'm not even asking you to decide tonight.

Take your time.

A day, a month...

ten years.

I've made a decision.

I accept the divorce on your terms.

Fine.

When can we settle it?

When you wish.

Today.

In Switzerland, you'll meet Judge Dorfman.

It is understood that Mr. Saccard will retain your contribution.

Mr. Saccard agrees to be responsible for the contribution.

- Except in case of bankruptcy. - Of course, Mr. Saccard.

You will present this to the presiding judge in Geneva.

You will sign a statement granting him permission to manage your fortune.

- It is understood... - That I'll sign? Yes.

The judge will consider these papers to be official.

- Will it take long? - One week, ma'am.

No more than five or six days.

Why Geneva? Can't I sign them here?

Your marriage was registered in Geneva. The Swiss law is clear:

"For a marriage"...

- There's no other way. - I'll go.

I'll leave tonight.

Watch it. The guys... Be careful.

Where did you come from?

Oh, shit.

They play rough.

You're as beautiful as ever.

Where did you come from?

Be careful, I told you.

We don't have to anymore.

I'm getting divorced.

I'm not Saccard's wife anymore.

I'm leaving tonight for Geneva, to finalize it.

It's over, Maxime. It's over!

I'm so happy!

Now we can kiss wherever we like!

I don't believe it.

I'm not Saccard's wife anymore.

Did you talk to him?

I asked him for a divorce.

- He agreed? - Yes.

- Did he ask you why? - No.

I'm taking the train to Geneva.

I'll spend a week there. When I get back, we'll leave for Greece.

Do you like that idea?

You'll write your father and tell him everything.

To Greece?

Do you agree?

What if I wait till tomorrow?

I'll take the first flight.

My bags are in the car.

We'll sleep in a hotel.

I have to go.

Fifteen minutes left.

Wait for me?

- Have the bill ready, please. - Yes, ma'am.

Do you want me to take you to Orly?

Lt'd be too sad.

By the way, I don't want to go to Greece.

Where, then?

To Ceylon.

To Japan.

I'll go anywhere you want.

I love you.

Close your eyes.

I don't want you to watch me go.

Stop moving.

Count to 10.

One, two, three, four, five...

six, seven, eight, nine...

You didn't sleep here last night.

I slept at a friend's.

So you've had breakfast?

No.

- Want to keep me company? - Sure.

You haven't left for the office?

No.

I was waiting for you.

Really?

You haven't seen Renee?

She didn't mention anything?

Why? What's going on?

Renee's divorcing me.

Really?

Really.

Did you talk about it?

What is there to talk about?

She insists upon a divorce.

The terms are clear.

I hope her true love will understand her.

I hope she'll invite us to her next wedding.

- Do you think she'll... - Of course.

I hope he'll be rich...

and able to provide her with the lifestyle...

- she's accustomed to. - Why?

She's rich, isn't she?

Penniless.

That's not what she says.

All her money is invested in my business.

I thought I'd explained it to her clearly enough...

but Renee doesn't understand business.

The facts are clear.

By insisting on an immediate divorce, she doesn't get a cent.

She's not going to sing at sidewalk cafes?

No.

I have every reason to be angry with her...

but what good is revenge?

She's irresponsible.

If she marries an artist, I'll give her alimony.

She'll manage, if she's sensible.

I'm becoming a widow, son.

Now I can go gallivanting with you from time to time.

Tell the girls your father's single.

Come to the office with me?

- Want me to drop you off? - Yes.

- Have classes this morning? - Yes.

I'll get my books.

You're in trouble, kid.

You've got yourself in very deep trouble.

Are things that bad?

I'm going through a rough patch.

If I get through it...

you won't have to worry about my old age or about yours, either.

If I don't, I lose all my money.

A European record.

You'll get through it.

I hope so.

I'll be counting on my friends.

I'll need their help.

- Someone can help me. - Who?

- You. - Me?

Do you like Anne?

Anne Sernet?

Of course.

Her father is fond of you.

He told me she likes you a lot, too.

I don't think he'd be against your engagement.

You want me to get married?

An engagement can be drawn out.

Right?

If I get engaged...

you're saved?

Yes.

So are you.

And so is Renee.

Anne is beautiful, isn't she?

Can I think about it, boss?

Not for too long.

No. It's impossible.

I'm sorry, but it's impossible.

I can't do that. No!

I'm yelling...

Composure is more impressive.

A lot of composure.

Sorry, Dad, but that's how it is.

That's the way it is.

I won't marry Anne.

I won't marry Anne. That's all.

We'll see...

- Dad, listen... - Be polite. I'm almost done.

- Something to tell me? - Yes.

Listen, Dad.

Let's respect tradition.

I spoke to Anne. She's thrilled.

Listen, I really think...

You're bailing me out of a bad situation.

A very bad situation. Thank you.

Thanks. Listen...

This engagement isn't a lifelong commitment.

Some men never commit to a woman.

Look at Renee and I.

I'm not used to people doing me favors out of kindness.

I've always fought alone.

It's nice to have an ally.

"How nice," as Maxime would say.

- Listen, Saccard... - Renee once said...

that you thought I was wonderful.

"That guy is wonderful."

You know, you're not bad yourself.

When a guy's really in a bind...

Let's drink to family.

What?

You speak Chinese, I speak Spanish. It means:

Health, love and new francs.

What does that mean?

It's untranslatable.

When's the engagement?

We'll announce it publicly in a few days.

At my Green Ball.

Well done.

Nice goal, Dad.

Right between the posts.

Well done.

I have a gift for you.

A trip to Japan, for you and Anne.

To Japan?

Do I have to thank you?

No.

Mrs. Saccard, a call from Paris.

Thank you.

Gilberte?

How did you find me?

Yes.

Of course I know about the ball.

What news?

No, I'm not playing dumb.

Anne and Maxime's engagement?

Yes.

Please allow me to interrupt...

this marvelous and very important evening.

I hereby announce the engagement of Miss Anne Sernet...

and my son, Maxime.

Don't cause a scandal. Come on.

Did you hear me?

Did you hear me?

- What are you disguised as, my dear? - It's a wig.

Leave me alone.

Stop.

Sit down.

Wait here.

We can't be late.

You know Maxime doesn't like to wait.

I know.

Stay calm.

Just stay calm.

I'll help you.

THE END
