Original subtitles

Are you and your husband managing here in Paris?

I want to see if there's an option to extend your contract.

-Would it work out with your home life? -Yes.

It's impossible doing this job with a baby at home, right?

I want a baby.

How do you manage your job and your kids?

Don't you think you're missing out sometimes?

All the time.

I'm not pregnant.

Don't blame yourself, okay?

Uri? Uri?

Uri, come on, honey. Grandpa's waiting downstairs. Let's go.

Dad, why can't I stay with you at the party?

Because it's a grown-up party and you might not enjoy it.

Will you have fun without me?

But we'll have even more fun.

We'll stay at a cabin in the woods,

see some animals, go on hikes, build a fire. We'll have lots of fun.

You are going to have a blast.

So if we're going to have fun, you can come with us, too,

and then we'll throw Mom a party in the woods.

-You know what? I have an idea. -What?

When you come back from the woods with your grandparents,

all three of us can throw Mom a party right here.

What do you say?

-Okay. -Okay?

Give me a smile.

And a kiss, like in the movies. Come on.

Well? I want a kiss, like in the movies.

Come on.

-Dad, make Mom laugh. -Of course.

-Pull pranks on her today. -Sure thing.

-Bye, Dad. -Bye, honey.

-I love you. -Good, honey. Let's go.

THE ATTACHE

"Happy birthday to you!

"Happy birthday..." Go on, sing!

"Dear Annabelle...

-Good! -"Happy birthday to you!

"Happy birthday to you..."

-You're a sweetheart! -"Happy birthday, dear Annabelle..."

Happy birthday!

May you be happy and successful, and...

Happy birthday, Annabelle.

That's nice. I'm going out to lunch. Join me for...?

-Yes, of course. -Have a nice day.

What is it now?

What is it?

What is it? Did I do something wrong?

-No, just go. -I haven't done anything? No?

Okay, fine. We forgot to invite her...

-Have fun. -Okay, guys. Enjoy the cake.

-Don't do that! -Bye.

Hey. Ofra.

Give her the contract.

If you're still interested,

the position is yours for the next three years.

I've made sure you'll get good conditions

-for your family. -Really?

You do realize what this means, right?

Of course. Thank you, Ofra.

Listen, you're no diplomat,

but at least you're not boring like all the rest.

This is the best birthday present I could have gotten.

I did consider getting you some chocolates,

but I've decided to go with something a bit more practical.

I need you to replace me

at the reception for the Japanese ambassador,

-at Palais Tokyo. -Of course.

-When? -Tonight. Make an excuse for me.

No, no...

Avshalom and I are celebrating tonight.

That's great. You can start celebrating at the art show.

You'll be there at eight? I'm counting on you.

Ofra, we have to go. Our reservation at L'Ambroisie is right now.

-L'Ambroisie! That's the best... -Annabelle?

Our meeting is over.

"And it doesn't hurt at all..."

Great. I'll see you next week.

-Goodbye. -Thank you, Avshalom.

Bye, Martziano.

Thank you.

-Natalie? -Yes?

Hey...

Remember what you told me about your grandmother?

Let's not get into that...

She's still a mess.

Her nurse has disappeared.

Her diapers make the entire house smell.

Her Alzheimer's going nuts. It doesn't remember a thing.

Hey...

Do you still have some of that medical weed they give her?

You told me that...

I just thought I'd have a smoke tonight.

A smoke?

Yes. You know, a smoke.

I'm throwing Annabelle a surprise party and we figured...

I figured I'd go a little crazy with her.

I have some.

-You do? -Yes.

But why smoke it?

Pour it into the mold.

Now, put the pan in the oven for one hour.

I envy you guys so much.

The first time I had a hash cake, I cried all night.

What?

But in a good way. It's...

It helps you let things out, it's a release.

I know... Where is it? Where is that road?

I... This is crazy.

I turned left. I don't get it. I don't get it at all.

Quiet, you'll wake up the boy.

We should have stayed home.

Watch a good movie on TV, with some pistachio ice cream.

It's no fun staying in all day. We'll have a nice time, you'll see.

Claudine and Pierre said you can even have sled races here.

Sled races? You want us to be in a sled race?

How about rafting, too? Or rock climbing?

-Sky diving? Or maybe a bull run, too? -Quiet, just stop it!

I'm over 60 years old.

You know there's no choice. Annabelle's working all day long,

and Avshalom is afraid to even take out the trash.

Their relationship worries me.

Everything worries you, so...

Not at all. I know my daughter, and I know them.

You know, I'm also worried...

I'm telling you, they might end up breaking up.

-You're always exaggerating. -No.

Come on.

Oh!

-Of course! -What?

We're actually on the road right now.

-Can you get a signal? -Yes, we're on the road...

Okay, can we go now?

-Certainly, yes. -Good.

-See? -How odd.

Look at him!

He looks just like Annabelle. The same eyes, the same eyelashes.

And the mouth, too...

But I must say, he has his father's chin, look.

Not at all,

that's Annabelle's chin. That's my chin. Look.

-Yeah, you're right. -Yes, of course.

-Let's go. -Come on.

I can play the drums like Dad.

How are you doing, Uri? You know...

I saw on the map that there's a small lake there.

It's like a little sea.

-It's frozen. -It's frozen.

-We can go skating on it tomorrow... -We can go skating.

Did you know that when the sun sets in the ocean,

morning starts for the fish?

How sweet! How did you come up with that sentence?

Dad taught me.

Let's go.

"Renewal of contract"

Kuku, I'm here.

Hey.

What is this?

Wow!

What's with all the sand? Are you insane?

Wow!

Thank you.

Thank you.

-I'll blow it out. -Hey...

Make a wish.

We have this weekend to ourselves.

-Your parents have Uri. -Nice.

But I'm going to be a bit of a killjoy.

What is it?

We're going on a date with a Japanese guy.

What?

A threesome with a Japanese?

It's Ofra.

Ofra asked me to meet the Japanese ambassador.

So we'll swing by Palais Tokyo at eight o'clock.

-Right. -Say "Konichiwa," and go home. Okay?

-Sure. -Okay.

-Sorry. -No, it's okay.

-Why are you so happy? -No reason.

Do you like the cake?

Yes, I love it. Thanks.

Okay, listen.

If you manage to get up after eating this cake,

I'll walk all the way to Japan with you, okay?

-Why? -Well?

Is there something in this cake?

Maybe.

No! Is this a space cake?

No! No!

Are you crazy?

No!

You packed for a month.

Uri, honey?

Why don't you put your toys away?

And then we'll go ice skating on the lake?

Not today, it's almost nighttime. We'll go tomorrow.

But you said we'll go skating.

That's right, but it's getting late, so we'll go tomorrow.

Maybe there's something else you'd like to do.

You promised we'd build a fire.

-What else did you promise him? -I said we'll do campfire.

-Campfire? A hot air balloon ride, too? -No, no.

You're probably hungry. Would you like me to fix you something?

It's almost nighttime and we haven't done anything yet!

-You're just saying stuff! -We weren't just saying.

-No. -Yes, you were!

I should have stayed home with Mom and Dad!

Come on, don't be silly.

You're talking nonsense! Mom and Dad won't break up!

Always running your mouth.

Alright, let's get up.

Sure, we're getting up. Where are we going?

-To see the Japanese guy. -Oh, the Japanese...

-Come on, get up! -I'm getting up, sure.

Right.

-But really. No, seriously. -I'm getting up.

I am. I'm up, can't you see?

Come on, get up!

I'm getting up. I'm getting dressed.

But wear something nice, eh?

Of course.

He's Japanese, from Japan.

Stop it!

-No... -No what?

-Stop it. -There, I've stopped.

I'm in the car, are you coming?

But we don't have a car.

-Come on, stop it. -Here, see?

-I'm already there, eating sushi. -Come on!

You should hurry up, the sushi's getting cold.

Damn it.

How will I tell the Japanese guy I'm not coming?

That's easy, see. Where is it? Here.

This is how you'll tell him.

Look.

Hello, Mr. Japanese Guy.

My beautiful, handsome husband threw me a surprise party at the beach,

so I won't be coming tonight.

Say "hi" to the emperor and his empress wife.

Give it to me, I want to try, too.

Konichiwa...

I can't come, because I'm with my husband,

and I haven't laughed this hard in a very, very long time. Thank you.

Uri?

Uri?

-Francois, please go look. -Hold on.

-He's probably asleep, go check on him. -Just a minute.

-Dinner's ready. Go get him, please. -Okay.

-Be nice to him. -Right, of course.

Uri? Uri?

Are you asleep? It's Grandpa.

It's Grandpa. Grandma's made dinner. Are you coming?

Let's go! I'm coming in, watch it.

I'm coming in for real this time, not like last time.

Watch it, okay...

Uri, it's Grandpa...

Uri?

-The window's open. -What?

Uri! Uri!

Where are you? Uri? Uri!

We're about to have dinner!

Can you hear me? This isn't funny!

Uri!

Where is he? Where are you?

Francois, what's going on?

-I can't find the boy! -That's impossible.

What do you mean? I can't find him!

-Uri! -Uri!

Honey? Where are you?

Honey! Playing hide and seek is not allowed!

-I can't see... -Where are you, honey?

Where are you?

Uri?

What is it?

Come on.

Uri?

Uri!

Uri. Uri!

-Uri! -Where are you?

Uri!

Uri!

-Uri! -Uri!

Don't answer it. Wait a minute.

It's my parents.

-Hello? -Annabelle, listen...

We've lost the boy.

What? What?

He left, he got out...

What? Where is he?

He wanted... he left... there is a lake.

-Can't you find him? Did you lose him? -Annabelle, I wasn't...

We're on our way!

Okay. But hurry up.

-Lake? What lake? -A lake?

Did they take him to a lake?

I'll call you back.

Here's a cab. Wait.

Stop, stop, stop!

Tell him.

We need to get to Gerardmer.

No, I'm sorry, that's not on my route. It's not on my route, ma'am.

-I'll give you money, okay? -No, sir. I can't take you. I can't!

It's a long way, sir...

My son is there. Please, take money.

No, sir. I told you...

-Sir, no... -Stop it, Avshalom.

Sir...

What don't you understand? Get lost!

Son of a bitch.

Son of a bitch.

Oh God...

Our son is in the middle of the woods, alone in the dark.

We'll find him.

I hate France.

Where did you bring us? What for?

-We'll find him. -I wish France burns.

I wish this whole place burns.

We'll find him, I promise.

I'm his mother, I know.

Now let's get up and grab a cab.

You'll see that we'll find him.

Let's go back to the cabin, he might be waiting for us there.

Are you okay?

-I'm tired. -I know, so am I.

I'm tired...

Wait, wait...

There he is!

There he is!

Uri!

-Uri. -Uri.

I want you to take me home.

Where were you? We were worried sick.

Why did you go? You know it's not allowed.

I was building a snow man.

Call Annabelle, let her know we found him.

What is it?

-Hello? -Annabelle, it's okay, we found him.

What is it? Did they...

Put him on, I want to hear his voice.

Hello, Mom?

-Hello? Uri? -Yes, Dad?

Uri, honey. My beautiful, precious boy, we were worried about you.

Dad, I built a snow man.

Uri, promise me you'll stay with your grandparents. Promise.

-I promise, Daddy. -Okay. Bye.

Stop the car, please.

-Where? Here? -Stop the car, please.

Okay...

Hey, it's okay.

Are you okay?

I don't like sand between my toes.

I never liked having beach sand between my toes.

Stop it. It's okay.

Come on, it's okay.

I'm on the pill.

-What? -I'm on the pill.

I'm sorry.

I want another baby, but... not right now.

I'm sorry. I can't hold it in any longer.

Ofra's offered to keep me on for a few more years.

And I want to stay here, in Paris.

I'm sorry.

Are you okay?

-Did you let it all out? -Yes. I'm better now.

-Would you like me to get you some water? -No.

-Are you okay? -Yes. Better.

Come on.

Let's get you home?

Come on.

-Take her home, please. -Alright, sir.

Where are you going?

Goodbye.
