Yeah You're right That's pretty cheap to look like a whore

- Seriously? Do I look like - Nah

No, Mum, it's fine, I'm sorry Very nice

I'm sure it'll look great on Francois

Check this out, he's got a G-string on

Don't you like strings?

Thanks

How's the baby?

Yeah, fine

- What about the bike? - You have to check with your mother

Look, I told you not to come here any more

Don't come round any more, full stop Just transfer the money

- Meet wherever you want, but not here - Pascale, I'm not a bank

- And I can still see them, can't l? - Yes, but not here

Are we going to have a fight because I came to see the kids?

No, but do I go and do my stuff at your place?

I bought this house Without my money, who knows where you'd be?

If you want to see your father, you'll have to do it somewhere else

I still have a right to see them, God damn it

All right, Luc, that's enough

What the hell do you care if we see him here?

I'm sick of seeing your father's face, can't you understand that?

If you want to talk to me, call me, but let's not quarrel in front of the boys

- Yeah, well, see them at your house - You know how things are with Carine

- Get off my back - Get out of here

- All right - Get out of here

- The bike - Keep your cash

It's for the bike

Listen, that's it I'm not putting their money in your account any more, you got that?

- Fine - You're happy?

- Yeah, I'm happy - Fine

And if you keep it up, I won't send any more money at all

You mother wants you all to herself, well, let her fend for herself then

I've been taken for enough as it is

Yeah, right, sure, fuck off

Fuck off with your goddamn money Get yourself a therapist

It's the same thing every time He has a fight with her and then comes here

- How do you know? - I know him better than you do

He gets fed up there, he runs over here

and thinks I'm going to greet him with open arms

- He just came to see us, that's all - He wants to fuck things up

He just wants to wreck everything

I don't know how Carine manages

When I think of all the things he wanted me to do for him

- How could I do it? - Is there any more?

No, I forgot to buy some

If it hadn't been for you, I would have left a long time ago I promise you that

- Can I have the car tonight? - I told you I needed it

OK, take it easy I'll drop you off

For ten years he's known he shouldn't be coming here He's sick

- Sick - OK, Mum, calm down

You don't know what it's like

If you ever become like him, I'll kill myself

I will

Wow, the speed

You're cheating

Yeah, but you'd

Whatever, you can't play You're gonna lose anyway

- What are you doing? - I went back to sleep

- I missed my bus - I'll drive you

- You're going to be late - Doesn't matter

Francois, my T-shirt

Francois, where is my T-shirt?

I don't know Get out

- What is this? - You never wear it anyway

It's my T-shirt

Come on, hurry up

Tell me, Pascale, what's preventing you?

I'm sure that if you don't do it now,

you never will

You have to do it

Got to jump

Some day, Thierry and Francois will be gone

You'll see

They'll fall in love It goes fast

You're not just going to stay alone with all your stuff?

Come on, concentrate Are you thinking about her?

You're thinking about her

Shut up

- Is she any good? - Shut up and play

- Come on, Thierry, tell me if she's good - Yeah, she's good, of course she's good

- I bet she's dumpy - Fuck off

Hey, I only saw her face Tell me

Mind your own business Do I ask if you wank with both hands?

- Come on - We can't play this way

Come on, let's go, let's play a game

So what, isn't it nice?

What, your hair?

What's that, Mum? You shouldn't have done it

It looks awful Well, it's not awful

A hairdresser did that to you?

- Was he disturbed or what? - Yeah, he was out of it

Kind of a Flemish-from-hell look

It's a bit of a Flemish do, yeah

Mum, what have you done? Thank God, it grows back

OK, stop it, Francois That's enough, really

Come on, we're just teasing

I think I'm going to quit my job

I want to do something else

- What would you do? - I don't know

I feel like setting up my own business

I could start a restaurant somewhere cool,

rent some rooms

With that haircut?

A B and B, I don't know, something cosy

- I'd like that - Right

Why not?

But, Mum, you can't start a B and B just like that

You can't even cook

Thank you very much Anyway, I can always take on someone who can

- Who? That makes no sense - It's a nice idea

How would she go about it? She has no qualifications, no money, no experience

- She doesn't need all that - No, you're right

Everybody knows you can start a B and B any which way you want

- No, but when there's a will, there's a way - There's a will, there's a way

Listen to yourself You don't start a thing like that at her age

She's got to keep her job, like everyone else She's lucky to have one anyway

Yeah, but if she feels like changing Like in that film the other night,

the girl went off to the country, changed her life and all that

It's not the same thing That was a film, Francois

- That girl was 30 - Hand me your plate

She was a pharmacist, she had money Not at all the same thing

You're the one who should get off your arse instead of sitting around all day

- Wait a second, I haven't stopped - What the hell are you doing?

You're sanding a door Is that how you're going to get rich?

It's not going to get you far, Francois

In any event, she's broke

How would you go about getting money? The banks aren't going to lend you anything

- Where would you find the cash? - I don't know

There you go

I could sell the house

I'm not going to stay here forever One of these days you'll be gone

I don't want to stay here by myself

You want to sell the house?

Francois, it's going to have to happen one day

- Yeah, but you don't need to sell the house - Why not?

Are you stupid or what?

- I'm not, and I didn't say it was a done deal - Well, I certainly hope not

You want to sell the house so you can do your stupid B and B thing?

- I didn't say that - Yes, you did

You just did

- It's the family house - No, it's my house

- Well, it's not your family's house - It's been my house for ten years now

If I want to sell it, I will

Shit, you OK?

Hold it Hold it

Aren't you going to tell them?

It's inside out

Come on

- Was someone here? - Jan

- Who's Jan? - The neighbour

He came by to say thanks for the lawnmower

- He borrowed our lawnmower? - Yes

And he brought you a pie?

Well yes, I had lent him the lawnmower

You ate the pie together or what?

Has he got a soft spot for you?

- What? - Are you blind?

What's your problem?

Hello, thank you for the mower, Missus

Oh, here's a little cherry pie

Hello, you

Oh, I'm coming, I'm coming

You don't even know him

- You want to do him? - Shut up

I've had enough, you're filthy

Mum, we're just kidding

Sorry

And thanks again for the pie, hey

- We're going to sell the bike - Why?

Sell mine, the parts, and then buy another one, a smaller one

The parts hang on there are no parts left

Roger would take mine for 300 euros,

150 for the parts, that's 450 euros total

- And buy what? - A two-stroke, more of a cross bike

That would be cool, cos the big one conks out in the field

It's not that bad

I'd like to have Pichon's bike

The big one, isn't that a Suzuki?

No, it's a Yamaha

- Yes, it's a lovely house - Yes

This whole region is magnificent

Where I live is a bit

Do you have the cadastral survey?

No, their father kept them

What about the roof, is it in good condition?

The roof, yes They replaced it not so long ago, I think

- Yes, it's fine - All right

I'm sorry I think we're going to have to adjourn

I'm almost finished, just another five minutes

Hello

- Hello - Hello

What's he doing?

- Excuse me, where are the meters? - Right, I'll go with you

- What is she doing? - How the hell should I know?

- Mum? - Yes?

- What are you doing? - It's nothing, Thierry

It's just to check what condition the house is in

Are you shitting me?

Look, let's leave it at that for today

Could you come back next week?

- Yes, yes, no problem - Great

- So these I keep? - Right, those are for you

- Is there a problem? - No This is yours

Thank you

- I'll walk you out - Yes

- There - OK

Goodbye

What's going on?

Goodbye, thank you

What the hell was he doing here?

Nothing, Thierry

- What the hell was he doing? - Just to see how much the house is worth

We don't give a shit how much the house is worth, we're not selling it, you got that?

So you stop doing your little girl act with your piece-of-shit projects

- OK, Thierry, take it easy - She has no right to sell it, it's ours

Dad gave it to us She's got nothing to do with it

You want me to stay here till I croak, is that it? You want me dead?

She's not entitled to sell anyway

I let her live in the house, but it's yours

She's had enough from me

She can stay in it, but it's your house

She only cares about money, anyway

We won't let it happen

- Anyway, are you OK? - Yeah

- Here - Thanks

- Give half to your brother, OK? - OK

- Well, see you, Dad - See you, buddy

- You need the key? - It's OK It's probably open on the side

How did it go?

What did he say?

Nothing

Dinner's ready

Thierry Francois

Mum, you got 20 euros?

No, I'm flat broke

What do you mean, you're broke?

I'm out of cash I spent it all

You can afford to buy yourself lingerie,

but when your kids need money, you're out?

If you want money, go ask your father Can I have some water?

I think he already gives enough, don't you?

Take it Go ahead

- I'll pay you back - As usual

Pass me the salad, Thierry, please

How come you're out of money?

- I spent it Do you want salad, Francois? - Don't you get money from Dad?

- What do you do with it? - That's enough Drop it

What do you do with it? Answer me

What do you do with the money?

I just spend it

- I spend it on the house - On the house

- That's a joke - OK, give it a rest

Who cares?

No, let him talk, if he's got things to say

Let him say what he thinks

You really want me to say what I think?

- What? - You really want me to say what I think?

Sure, express yourself

Dad gives money for us, not for you to have fun with l-don't-know-who

or to buy clothes

That money's for us, not for you

See, everything is there

It's close to Bordeaux and Perigord

It's the old Mausac train station, perfect for a B and B

We could put in five bedrooms

I see guests arriving by train in the morning or at night,

and we live on the ground floor, with a small dining room

- Here? - Yes, here

And when the weather's nice, we eat outdoors under the chestnut trees

You have to show them, it's beautiful

Look at this

Yes, but I don't know if I can, Jan, it's their childhood home

I know But what do you want?

When I was their age, I was living on my own, earning a living

I don't know what else you need

- lsn't it fantastic? - No, you're right, I have to talk to them

- This is boring - No, leave it, leave it

You're watching this? It's a drag

I'm sorry

I forgot

Do you know what time it is? Where were you?

Nowhere, I just went for a walk

- I can drive you now though - Forget it

I missed my class I told you I had a class at three

If you had said something, I could've taken the bus

I am sorry, Thierry, things happen, I forgot

- What were you doing until now? - Nothing, I was in town

Sorry

Where are the keys?

They're in there

Just go strut your stuff in town

You really want to sell the house?

I don't know, Francois

What would we do, then? Would we go with you?

I don't know

Thierry's got his studies and you'll find a job soon

You know, at your age, I was already working

I could go with you, I could help you there

There's loads of things to do in a B and B

What are you doing here?

Have you seen my drill?

Look, if you've got problems, I can still help you

I mean, I can help you with the upkeep of the house

Mind your own business

Why do you want to sell it?

Luc, go home

- Did you stop and think about the kids? - Oh, no, never You know me

I never think about them

Just go home

You all right?

- Have you seen my drill? - It's right here

Thanks

- You need any bits? - No, it's OK, I've got everything

Francois, if you need help,

you know where to find me, I'm always there

Yeah, OK

All right, then

Bring it back, I need it for the shutters

Yeah, I'll bring it back

Eleven-eight

Eleven-eight

- I'm going out tonight - Where to?

None of your business

- Please clean up after you're finished - OK

See you

- Where is she going? - How should I know? Come on, play

What was the score?

- Ten-five - No way Ten-five, are you crazy?

It was fifteen-ten, we just changed serves

No way, we had a three-point spread, something like that

Eight-twelve, it was eight-twelve

No, actually we're neighbours, that's why

I live next door to Jan

Let's not get into details

Why not? They're not details

I'm just saying

There's nothing embarrassing

So it's very recent?

- Is this official? - It's the first time we meet

Well, it's our first night out as a couple

We have to toast then

Let's fill the glasses Hang on

Excuse me

- How rude - You know it

- Jan is coming to dinner tonight - Who's Jan?

- The neighbour, the Flemish guy - Why is he coming to dinner?

- Did he lend you something? - No

No, I invited him, that's all

I told him you'd both be here

Why did you invite him?

I don't know, I just did

- Does that bother you? - No, it's really great

There

That way

Careful, it's very hot

The tomatoes

- You have to put them on like this - OK, I know

They're gorgeous

- You OK? - Yes

All right

Do you know why lifeguards have stinky hands?

You know, lifeguards that mind

swimming pools, that watch over them

- Lifeguards have what? - Stinky hands

They have hands that stink

I thought you said names that stink, I didn't get it

No, stinky hands You know why?

"Well, kid, put on your swimming cap"

You see? "Kid, put on your" This is why they have

I never get jokes

OK, I'll set them up like this

You want me to do something with the sauce?

Yes, please

- Hot? - No, it smells strong That's because

Just a little bit

- Not too much That's enough - Not too much OK

It looks great

Right That's it That's good

It's good

- Feels nice - Yes

Your mother told me she was having a tough time with you

I mean, not easy

She's an amazing woman, your mother

She did everything on her own, just like that

That's quite something

She fought all her life, for you, and other things

You've got a great mother

I can tell you

I think there's a time

when kids have to understand that their parents have given them all they could

and they have a right to start thinking about themselves again

What are you talking about?

Don't you think I'm right?

Yeah, so?

Your mother Pascale asked me to come

because she has a hard time talking to you

She asked me to be here

so we could talk more serenely

What the hell did you tell him?

Thierry, she just said that you did not agree with her,

that you object to her selling the house and she doesn't understand why

- Why are you saying that? - She just said it was hard

Let's not overreact

How does that have anything to do with you?

Excuse me?

- Who do you think you are? - I like your mother very much,

and I don't like seeing her like this

At your age, you should start understanding certain things

- God damn it Are you finished? - Jan, it's OK

No, Pascale, it's not OK, it's not at all OK

Don't let yourself be treated this way You shouldn't talk to your mother that way

Look, I don't have to take any lessons from you You're not my father

You only know her version

- What is your point of view then, Thierry? - That's none of your business

OK, let's stop now

Jan, it's OK

All right? Let's change the subject

I think I know my mother better than you do You don't know what she's capable of

I know your mother better than you think

Jan, please, stop

Francois, you understand, don't you?

- God damn it Are you going to shut it? - You're going to calm down

Stop it, stop it, please Let's eat, it's getting cold

No more talking, we're here to eat Let's eat

Francois, please eat

I'm going to go home

Please stay, spend the night

No, I'm tired I'm going home

What am I doing here, Pascale? Why am I here?

They're right, you know You have to sort this out with them

They're adults They don't need anybody to give them a sermon

OK, all right But you can still spend the night

It's better this way It's better for you

Better for them, for everybody

I had a stepfather, I know what it's like

- Please stay, Jan - lt'll be all right, Pascale

It's OK

You shouldn't be at war with your sons

I shouldn't even be asking your opinion

Don't ask, then

Yes, fine, but I still want things to go well

If you want things to go well, don't change anything

How long are you going to keep fucking up my life?

Fifteen years I've been killing myself for you

Now I have an opportunity to do what I want with Jan, and I can't

Oh, right, so that's why the Flemish guy was here

I just wanted you to meet him

Why do you bring that arsehole here? What the hell did you tell him?

I told him how you are

And he's not an arsehole, you don't even know him You're the arsehole

Why bring him into our family business? What's it to him?

Are you going away with him?

He wants to live with me

Well, go to him then That way, you'll stop being a pain

I am going to go to him If you hadn't been here, I would have lived differently,

- I could have done what I wanted - And what would that be?

- That's none of your business - Yeah, right Go fuck yourself

You're getting to be more and more like your father And mind your language

Stop your bullshit

- You arsehole - Yeah right, see you

- You just go fuck yourself - Shut up

What's your problem?

- What's yours? - Yeah, just go Run to your mummy

Were you sleeping?

You know what he had the gall to say to me?

I don't want to know

I don't want to hear about it, I've had it

It's going to work out We'll sort it out

You'll sort it out

I have nothing to do with it

It's the house, is that it?

I can't leave, so you dump me?

and leave me alone, God damn it

Are you OK, Mum?

I'm going to keep the house

- So you're not with your Flemish guy? - OK, Thierry, give it a rest
