SSW

? Leaving without a goodbye?

I said goodbye but you were sleeping.

Technically, you didn't say goodbye.

Goodbye.

? You've forgotten my name, right?

You cried as a kid when mama grizzly got shot in The Bear.

You save green gummi crocs for last. Your favorites.

You snore in your sleep but it's cute.

And your name's Camille.

Ccile.

Goodbye, Ccile.

Have a good day.

? Are we hiding?

? Who are you?

National hide-and-seek champ. Indoors.

This is no game.

? Ok, champ. You know a safe hideout?

Sure.

- ? ? - ? - Who was that guy? Boyfriend? - Are you nuts?

? Do I look like a girl who hooks up?

No, of course not.

- ? - - So who was he? - My minder.

- ? - - Your what? - My minder.

A coach or guardian angel,

who shadows you to counter your addiction.

Stopping a foodhog from eating.

A gambler from approaching a casino.

The job's physical and psychological.

It's a craze in the States.

! I'm sick of mine tailing me. Nightmare!

? What's your addiction?

Playing with fire.

? Metaphorically?

15 Sophie, I'll be 15 minutes late for the presentation.

No sweat, I'm in a cab.

? It's Paris. What do you expect?

It's insane this morning.

The traffic's not my fault.

? Did I close the expressway?

No, exactly.

It looks clearer up ahead.

Yeah.

10 I'm 10 minutes away.

Hold on, getting sticky again.

25 25 minutes, at least.

GPS25 The GPS says it'll take 25 minutes.

30! 30 minutes!

Even as a kid, I suffered from it.

All the way through school,

with girls, I never stood a chance.

I was ashamed, I was burdened.

I suffered.

She did it on purpose.

? How could I find love with that handicap?

... Look, Mr. Bertrand...

Bertrand Bertrand.

Nothing cuts deeper than identical first and last names.

? Where's the imagination?

? "Mrs. Bertrand, you have a name for him? "

"I dunno. Bertrand? "

! Dumb cow!

After 2 years, we haven't got anywhere on this.

Honestly, speaking as a woman,

Bertrand Bertrand's fine.

It's kinda Enzo Enzo or Duran Duran.

80 Two of the 80's coolest bands.

They really weren't cool bands.

My mother chose it because she hates me.

In her tummy, she hated me.

! No! If your mother hated you,

she'd have named you Plastic.

.. Look, Mr. Bertrand...

This must be our last session.

We're going nowhere, speaking as a professional.

? You're dropping me?

For your own good.

I feel much better.

Clearly not.

- - - I love you. - Absolutely not.

You're like my mother. You despise me.

I'm warning you,

if we stop, I'll jump out the window.

I swear.

Look, Mr. Bertrand,

a suicide case doesn't talk about it. First-year stuff.

Anyway, I won't be blackmailed.

? Know what?

To prove how much I trust you,

I'll go over here

and open the window.

! Bertrand!

? Where the hell is he?

? Well?

He's on his way, sir.

- - - Let me get you a coffee. - I don't want a coffee.

30 I've had 30. Don't bring me coffee,

! bring me Gabriel!

Right away, Mr. Debreuil.

With tattoos, pick your spot carefully.

! I don't need your advice. Back off!

! Gabriel!

- ? - - Sophie, how's it going? - Badly. Everybody's waiting.

40 Don't get mad over 40 minutes.

140! 1 hour and 40 minutes!

- ? - ... - What? - That cute dimple...

No, don't start on the dimple.

Like little hearts.

It flusters me.

You're angry but your face is sending hearts.

Hey, Serge.

? All good?

Not now, Serge, cut it out.

This is Gabriel, our VP of Sales.

? Gabriel, you remember Ms. Mallarm?

Mr. Duvarzac, who represents hypermarket franchises nationwide.

- - - Running out of patience. - Forgive me.

? But ask yourselves, why am I late?

? What could have kept me up the night before a crucial meeting?

Very simply, the challenge you set.

! Damn him!

How to sell a chocolate bar

? without chocolate?

Going around in circles last night, unable to sleep,

I opened up a cabinet, took out a chocolate bar,

like that, without thinking.

As I unwrapped it,

I started to relax, to feel better.

! That's when it clicked!

The most intense part of eating a chocolate bar

is when you tear the aluminum foil

to expose all those squares

in neat little rows, perfectly symmetrical.

Eating is secondary to this ritual.

We all know the most exciting part of falling in love

is the fantasy.

Before it becomes reality.

- - - Sublime. - Thanks.

- - - Bravo. - Thanks very much.

You lucked out.

It's not luck.

It's not modesty either.

- ? - - Want to know my secret? - Yes.

My solid-gold assistant.

! You idiot!

- - ? - Mr. Debreuil wants to see you. - Right now?

- ? ? - - Good news, Nadge? An increase? - Don't know.

- ! - ! - Nadge, tell me! - Stop calling me Nadge!

You've changed your tune.

Gabriel, take a seat.

Thank you. Sorry again for being late.

After your performance, I won't hold that against you.

We had a dud.

Chocolate without chocolate, a total dud.

Great job, truly.

I'm touched.

A guy like you nowadays

is a rare find.

... That's why...

? Mr. Debreuil?

You're fired.

Sorry, my fault, I didn't say it loud enough.

! You're fired!

? I'm not doing a good job?

You're doing a wonderful job.

... But...

Since you have slept with my secretary, my wife,

my daughter,

I'm not a vindictive man,

but you're fired.

I must be honest, out of respect for you.

I have a problem.

I cannot resist women.

I swear, it's overpowering.

A physical phenomenon when I meet a woman.

? An erection?

No, I'm talking mysticism.

? ? Really? We're going mystical now?

I'm a kind of incurable romantic.

When I see a woman, I cannot resist. It overpowers me. I love women.

- - - All women. - That's different.

- - - You're practically a victim. - Exactly.

Your pain is palpable.

I get it.

I apologize about your secretary, wife and daughters.

? What do you mean, daughters?

Not my Isabelle.

She's so innocent.

Leave my office.

... One last thing...

3 In the last 3 months,

212 on 21 days you arrived on average 2 hours late.

Your termination therefore is without severance pay.

! Get the hell out!

You broke my heart but let me come.

Screw the job, take me with you.

Me too, I owe you so much. You're a great guy.

Even if you're damn annoying.

I'm just taking a bathroom break.

You're so kind. I'm touched.

But I need to think things over.

Alone.

I'll miss you all.

- - - Truly. - We'll miss you, Gabriel.

C'mon, stay.

? Why open the window?

So he'd face his limits.

He jumped from the window.

Not the one I intended, or opened. He jumped out another.

! Trickster patients!

... You understand that after the hostage incident...

He wasn't a hostage, just confined. With his wife's agreement.

To induce Stockholm Syndrome and revive their love.

? You kidnapped him with his wife as accomplice?

Yes. But it was staged.

Now they're in prison. Both of them.

Well,

the Board has unanimously decided

to strike you off the national medical register.

Please, you can't do that.

I'm very competent and sensitive.

- ... - - Speaking as a woman... - Sure.

Your patients are also sensitive.

Thank you.

! I might do something radical!

No, miss. Blackmail won't work.

Besides, the windows are sealed.

Struck off

Thanks to you, I found out my building had stairs.

Sorry, I monopolized the elevator.

Just kidding, it keeps me in shape.

Does me good.

You clearly never ride the elevator.

Lame.

Yup, lame.

? Sorry, what came over me?

Gabriel, from next door.

I'm Pauline.

- - - The newbie. - Pleasure's mine.

... Here...

? No problem. Where does it go?

In my bedroom.

That's what I call good neighbors.

My dear nephew, 2 hours, I've been waiting.

It's cold now.

It started out frozen.

- ... - - Cold frozen food... - ls cold.

And not nice.

? Where were you?

You bumped into the new neighbor.

I went to say hi and lend a hand.

? Lend a hand?

When Mrs. Roland moved in, you didn't lend a hand.

Hold on, Unc, Mrs. Roland's still a bombshell.

She takes swimming class every Friday.

With Mrs. Roland, it's not love, it's archeology.

And I have nothing against relics.

But I have to admit, Mrs. Roland

has a twinkle in her eye that's so sexy.

... Anyway...

? Why did they fire you?

? I can guess but what happened this time?

A misunderstanding.

I understand.

The boss's wife.

? You bzz'd her?

? The secretary. You bzz'd her too?

? His daughter?

! Daughters!

! Bzz'd them!

I loved them, Unc.

And bzz'd them.

? A mover with a watch like this?

Sure, it's his. I told you all along.

! You're kidding me!

! Keep it. Just get off my back!

Listen, if I get hold of him,

... I'll kick his ass and cut his...

... One more...

misunderstanding.

! Marvelous!

With your resum, you'll soon find a job.

I hope so or we move out.

I can look for a job.

2 Unc, you haven't left here in 2 years.

? So? I can job from home.

People do. You can't keep me your whole life.

! Your whole life!

That's what I said. I'm a proud man.

Dirty pants.

Impressive.

But it's a no, sorry.

- ? - - Meaning? - Meaning no.

... Perhaps you need to...

reread it.

? Right?

! Alright, you bet!

She's my daughter.

? No?

No.

? Really, no?

Yes, really. No.

Damn.

! YES. yes, yes!

No, sorry.

... Your resum's...

Impressive. I know.

To tell the truth, we've heard of you.

Great.

? No?

? Not great?

Your old boss put the word out.

- - - To stop you landing a job. - It's a misunderstanding.

- - - You have quite the reputation. - Yes.

I'm a changed man.

I've been working on myself.

All interview, you've scoped the 2 women

over there.

A perfect misunderstanding. I was scoping your photocopier.

HP Color Laser Scan.

? Excellent model. You're happy with it?

Yes, very happy.

Out.

! No way! I look terrible today.

- ? - - Don't you think? - You look great.

- ? - - This mug? - You look great.

Look maybe, before you tell me I look great.

For credibility's sake.

So you want a fight.

Talking doesn't mean I want a fight.

I said twice you look great. I don't get it.

The problem is, you never get it.

On the house, just like that.

Sorry, I'm totally on edge.

- - - I hate these family lunches. - They're cool.

No, my family is not cool.

Beyonc, Jay-Z, they're cool.

Yeah, they're totally cool.

All I ask is,

don't talk about work.

- - ? - I haven't said I was fired. - Struck off?

Same difference. Struck off, fired.

It's all the same.

Benoit, promise me.

Trust me, babe. I got your back.

I am so happy.

The whole family together, like every Sunday.

? Marie-Zo, beetroot?

Mom, I detest beetroot.

? First I heard of it. Since when?

Since birth.

My little girl loves beetroot.

? What about you, Benoit?

? Your restaurant project?

I read an article on the subject.

It's a crowded market.

You're wasting your time.

? What if my daughter gets pregnant?

You'll have to man up. Financially.

? What?

- ... - - Actually... - Dreams and projects, fine.

But you have to be responsible.

... Benoit, frankly...

Marie-Zo got fired.

? Is this true?

Not exactly.

- ... - ? - I can explain... - Explain?

Shrink's not for you. I always say so.

Only the other day.

To Yolande.

? You agreed, right?

Honeybun, of all your qualities, listening is not one.

Your father never listened either.

? Where is he now?

Dead.

? Would anyone here consult my daughter about psychological issues?

Be honest.

? Jacques?

? To discuss your alcoholism?

There you go.

I'm just saying.

Tuck in, everyone.

I did my best so you wouldn't be like me.

! A womanizer, women call it. A vile term!

I tried to teach you about love and its dangers.

I failed.

? Teach me what, Unc?

To pine for love wearing a suit.

She'll be back. I know it.

I sense it. One day.

Every day, I'll be ready for that day.

Don't await the love of your life in pajamas or sarong.

Or penis sheath, that's irrelevant.

She remarried. Auntie Martha got remarried.

Minor details.

I'll get a dry white.

By the way,

men are the real victims of love.

? Seriously?

Yes, seriously. We're on a perpetual quest for love.

It's exhausting.

Until one day, or all night long, comes your queen.

I'll always love your aunt.

... I mean...

That flexibility's unforgettable.

! Uncle!

? Tomorrow morning? Great.

No, Gabriel, not great.

1000 Chasing after 1,000 women in pursuit of one.

Look where it gets us.

Thank you so much. See you tomorrow.

I'm meeting a US firm setting up in France.

If needs be,

I'll seduce women for money. I hate them.

They'll pay for mistreating us.

I'll put out for you.

In the name of love.

Unc, I'm on it. I have an interview.

- ... - - Tomorrow morning... - My mind's made up.

Walking the streets is a no-no.

This hooker's working from home.

Just you wait.

! There will be bzz!

It's great to see you.

Look what you did...

I'm fine.

... Would you mind...

Yes, of course.

No, not to drink.

When I get out, I'd love to resume our sessions.

That's not possible.

- ... - - Mr. Bertrand... - Call me Bertrand.

I've been struck off.

Because of me.

Your suicide didn't help my case.

We could go private.

- - - I love you. - No, you don't.

I stopped by to see how you're doing, no more.

... I've been taking stock and...

If you refuse, I kill myself again.

You already played that card, Bertrand.

... I never give in to blackmail...

! The guy's a complete moron!

We're still moving in, but we're pumped.

We have foosball and first generation Pac-Man.

And a condom machine.

And Serge.

Accountant and stand-up guy.

! Hey, Serge!

Nice to meet you.

I worked with a Serge before. A great guy.

... Great. Hold on...

Dab, Serge. Dab.

Our champion dabber.

- - ! - Incredible. - Truly!

Long story short,

we're a young online store driven by marketing.

He's our boss, Henry Dickinson. He loves a challenge.

He wants to conquer Europe, starting in France.

Sure. France, luxury and refinement.

Way off. It's to please his wife, Henriette.

Gets wet.

Not in front of her.

Never in front of her.

? What are you selling here?

Lingerie.

Deluxe.

? Lingerie?

Deluxe.

- ... - - Bras, g-strings... - Deluxe.

? And no girls work here?

... Sure...

No.

Just guys here right now.

? You know any girls?

? Yeah, sure, a few. Who doesn't?

That's cool 'cause since we moved back to France,

... it's tricky, we've lost touch...

We're like work, work, work. Totally antisocial.

We have girlfriends too. We know lots in San Francisco.

Lots.

... There's...

? What was that tiny chick's name?

! Clarole!

Clarole Smist.

? And the tall one?

We called her the tall one.

- ... - - Six feet... - Two.

Ok.

Let's cut to the chase.

We want the best VP Sales in Paris. We need you.

3 Dickinson and wife arrive in 3 weeks. They decide.

... Meantime, here's what we can offer...

To begin with.

Just to begin with.

No girls, so no temptations. And double my salary.

It's lingerie, sure, but all online.

! Perfect! Debreuil will regret firing me for no reason.

For almost no reason.

? When do you meet the Texan?

3 In 3 weeks, at his country house.

I meet him, his wife, he signs my contract. It's on.

I'm stoked about Dickinson.

? What?

? You ever saw your new boss's wife?

? Henriette?

? Edith Piaf with bangs and cowboy boots?

Almost. Practically a lookalike.

? That's Henriette?

It's me with wig and g-string.

Of course it's Henriette.

Clearly we have a serious butt issue.

Those eyes are insane.

That butt!

... You know the rule. Where there's butt...

! There's shit!

Please, Gaby darling, come in.

I have no head for heights.

No Henriette looks like that.

With eyes like that.

And legs like that.

True, that butt doesn't belong on a Henriette.

It's downright sneaky. I call foul.

She looks intelligent, charming, charismatic.

I bet she's fragrant, funny and witty.

Look at me, Unc.

I hardly know her and I'm in love.

It's screwed. I'll never stick it out.

Never.

! Initiating Operation Prostitution!

There's a market, good rates.

You're a woman, you're lonely,

you're hot to trot,

? what will you pay me?

I nearly answered that.

? See?

Unc,

I'm sick of this family curse.

I'll prove you're wrong.

- - - I can control myself. - You'll bzz her, for sure.

I need treatment.

That's the solution.

Yup.

Treatment.

I need an escort name.

That sounds "latin lover."

Like Antonio Banderas.

Moody.

Caliente.

Matador pants and castanets on fuego.

The sombrero.

A little rodeo, then some bolero.

That's it.

! Got it!

Pablo.

Pablo de la Poya.

De la Poya, Pablo!

Fantastico.

Anytime, anywhere. Morning, noon and night.

? Every day, Patricia?

7 7 days a week. Morning, noon and night.

724 Serving 24/7!

? Well, funny guy, what's your name?

Gabriel.

I see.

No, you don't see. I'm here because I love women.

No, not like that.

Not that, it's not the same.

I'm in love with women. I can't help trying

to seduce them, approach them,

talk to them, breathe in their scent,

see them laugh or smile.

- - - I love them, period. - I understand.

So you joined our support group for sex addicts,

? 'cause it's torture?

Totally. It's torture.

? Same for you?

This isn't about me.

I'm hot. For it.

Yeah, me too.

! Let's fuck!

! Patrick, no!

Yves, I'll have to touch you.

! ! Stop! Enough!

You are slipping into salutary tranquility.

You are not prisoner of your desires.

You are master of your actions.

Your senses are not.

? You feel the waves?

I feel them.

Very good.

And your perfume, above all.

Soft and sensual.

Earthy.

You need someone to remind you what an exceptional woman you are.

Strong

but fragile.

Intelligent

but sensitive.

Submissive

but free.

You need a man who respects you, Sylvie.

Josiane.

Josiane

but Sylvie.

The session is over.

Friend, acacia honey twice a day.

? Two spoonfuls a day?

You dip your penis

in the honeypot twice a day.

- - - I see. - And desire retires.

? Meaning?

! C'mon!

You stick your wiener

? in the honey. Got it, dude?

Wiener in the honeypot.

Got it.

You lost your accent.

Friend, leave my accent where it's at. I'm working.

? Penis in the honey twice a day. Hear me?

Yeah, Unc.

No, it doesn't work.

I've tried everything, I'm at my wits' end.

This is Gerald Marteen.

If you're calling, you have a problem for me to solutionize.

Leave a message, I'll get back to you ASAP.

Hey, Gerald, this is Marie-Zo Desplat.

Long time no see.

Since that New Year's Eve party, l guess.

I'm calling 'cause I'm changing track

and challenging myself to be the version 2.0 of me.

I was wondering if your offer still stands.

Let's touch base going forward ASAP!

See you.

? Babe?

Guess what,

the crapper's clogged.

? Seriously. What do we do?

I dunno.

Grab a bucket, deal with it.

... Hey, Gerald...

? Why'd I shit in a bucket?

That's gross.

! Sickos!

! Perverts!

"?" Why ask, "Which Kama Sutra position are you? "

Stick to hello. They think we're sick.

Hey, Gabriel.

? You saw our interview?

The end of it.

I don't know what you've heard

but we're not gropers.

Rumors. It only happened once,

on a photo shoot. It was a misunderstanding.

When you're squeezed in tight like that, you rub up on people.

Like the subway at rush hour.

... You rub, you touch...

A misunderstanding.

Don't worry, I know about misunderstandings.

! It's cool, just guys!

Hold on, sorry, I have to jump in there.

We don't ride that bus.

Or even that pony.

It's just that girls in an office can be distracting.

I don't think so.

? Rmy, can we talk?

Sure.

... About the weekend at the CEO's place...

Awesome house apparently, servants and all.

Cool.

? Wouldn't it be better to meet someplace more professional?

- ? - - Here in Paris? - No.

He wants to sign contracts there with his wife.

They decide together.

If his wife likes you, the job's yours.

... Watch out, the guy's from Texas. He's...

The day an intern looked his wife in the eye,

he emasculated the guy with a butter knife.

Word.

Alright.

Never look her in the eye.

Never.

! Never!

Forgive me, something came up.

? Hide-and-seek?

Good to see you, Raphael.

? ? Lionel? Gal?

Gabriel.

- - ? - I never thought you'd call. - How come?

You didn't seem the type to call your hookups.

Just like me.

I fall in love easily. For everyone's good,

I keep away.

- ? - - C'mon, seriously? - Yes.

? Why'd you call then?

To see how you're doing, nibbling cauliflower,

leaving lemon peel.

? For real?

... For real...

I think I need a Kinder.

? A what?

Your arson preventer.

? My minder?

There you go.

? What for?

In acacia honey.

There you go.

Okay.

You really need help.

? You kept the guy?

No, I only agreed to reassure my parents.

I'm over it.

Here.

Thanks a lot.

It's been cool.

Good luck.

You bet.

See you.

This way.

? Gabriel Fontan?

Gerald Marteen. Good to meet you. We spoke on the phone.

? So how are we, Gabriel?

- - - A bit nervous. - Completely normal.

It's a new method, almost unknown here.

We're pioneers. Import quality

No, rest assured, we'll take good care of you.

I'll entrust you to our best minder.

I mean, minderess.

? A woman?

? Yes, is that a problem?

Totally. That's my whole problem.

Women.

That's over.

? Natasha, will you take charge?

Morning.

Please take a seat.

Thanks.

Let's get to know each other.

Talk to me about yourself

and what brings you here.

I'm Gabriel,

28 28 years old, VP of Sales.

I love musicals, especially starring John Travolta.

About you, not me.

I hate musicals.

They make me squirm.

I live with Uncle Joe. Since Martha left him, you could say,

I look after him.

... My problem...

... The reason I'm here to see you...

! No way! I want real cases.

He is a real case.

? Finding women irresistible so it ruins your life?

90% Finding women irresistible is the problem of 90% of men.

Marie-Zo, I'm not here to judge our patients.

Gabriel says his addiction to women is wrecking his life.

So we help him.

It's bullshit, though.

? You know I adore you?

We know each other well.

Even better since that New Year's Eve.

Well enough to know you're Gerald Martin, not Marteen.

There we go. It's exactly that.

That self-righteous tone. Lose it.

Sit down.

Since your last patient's double high dive,

not a single firm will hire you.

You lucked out, becoming a minder here.

! A client walks in with an olive addiction, we help!

Another wants to cure his habit of counting toilet paper,

! We help!

... A guy can't help eating lawns in parks...

! We help!

! The relapsed dog molester, we help!

! No, we turn him in!

! Seriously, Marie-Zo!

Bestiality is a serious issue.

Come on,

snap out of it, get a grip. Get it together.

Deep within yourself.

In your own time.

Sorry, a quick heads-up with my boss.

Don't be ridiculous.

? Where were we?

In 1 week, I meet my new boss's wife.

? Can you help me?

Just one question. If you cannot resist women,

and I'm speaking as a professional,

? how do you plan to work with me?

I'm relieved you raised that subject.

... Honestly, pretty brunettes with sparkling eyes...

! Come on!

? Sure, why not?

Come on, go on.

? Frankly?

Go ahead.

Ideally, we'd hook up now.

- ? - - Ideally? - Yes.

So we defuse the love issue and we can get to work.

Let's make this clear,

men with this disorder imagine they are irresistible,

which is patently false.

Yes, sounds crazy

but we don't all succumb.

No offense, you have a boring physique and a goofy smile.

Exactly, that smile.

? Ok, and so?

So we'll keep this ultra-professional. That's the key to success.

Time is short. We can't play cat-and-mouse.

That's why we should hook up now.

But it's not a good idea.

Ok, got it.

Fine, we start at dawn. Tomorrow evening, I move in.

That won't happen. Due to Unc.

724 It's non-negotiable. I need to observe you 24/7.

Take it or leave it.

Not a chance, Gabriel.

No es una opcin.

- ? - - How does Spanish help? - No woman enters here.

Not in the temple.

It's the rule, and rules rule.

She's not a woman, she's my minder.

? What's a minder?

? And what's a Marie-Zo?

? Two women's names for a single woman?

? Get the picture?

! A mujer!

! A chica!

! iNo es una opcin!

? Another opcin?

! iProstitucion!

Sorry to keep you waiting.

I was expecting to see your husband.

! Sit!

You're very pale.

It's my natural color. Deathly pale.

I want to dance.

It's impossible.

If I say

I want to dance.

You have to dance

yes.

It's possible.

! Let's go!

? So you want to fuck her?

We know we may make a big misunderstanding

? A big misunderstanding?

I frequently heard misunderstanding recently.

You should shut up now.

? Honey?

! Unc, listen up!

! Tomorrow, Marie-Zo moves in. It's non-negotiable!

! iNon-negociablo!

Release the bell, the door is open.

? Unc Joe, I presume?

Joseph.

And you're the mmm conning my nephew.

... Conning nobody. I'm a pro at healing egos, heartaches...

Bullshitta. I'll get him for ya.

I need access to your apartment.

I'm negotiating it with Unc.

There's a serious psychiatric handicap.

? The baker's wife gives you free croissants?

? Mlanie?

That depends.

? If you're on first name terms, you've slept with her?

! Not necessarily, Marie-Zo!

At Sugar West,

say I'm your PA.

? ! I'm funny? Eyes on the road!

! No problem, Marie-Zo!

Pull over, we're getting out.

! C'mon, it was a joke!

! I'm not gonna call you Ren!

8.10 That'll be 8.10 euros.

? Another ball-breaker, huh?

? A ball-breaker?

Don't call a woman that.

? ! What if I called your mom that? Mom the ball-breaker!

! Watch your lip!

Sure,

not so funny now.

! Come here, you'll see!

Hold on now.

- ? - ! - What did you say? - Get off me!

! Let go of me!

! You'll see!

! No water, no charger!

- ! - ? - Let go of him! - My mom a ball-breaker?

! ! Gabriel! Let go of him!

We met your PA.

Don't worry, I pay her out of my salary.

- ... - - No, we'll pay for her. She looks... - Hot.

Competent.

- ? - ? - Is she seeing anyone? - Or single?

? Or lesbian?

- - - I'll find out. - I love her.

? Excuse me?

Nothing. We're counting on you.

Don't go changing, guys.

- - - Good news, you're hired. - Great.

4 Those 4 freak me out.

Relax, they have chicks in San Francisco.

? What's my schedule today?

11 11am, an advertisers' conference.

Let's go.

No.

That won't happen.

For work, I go alone.

... It's the only rule I must insist on...

Let's go.

It's the biennial advertisers' trade show.

Everybody who's anybody in advertising is here.

It's crucial when you're launching a new brand.

Sugar West being new in France, we can't mess up.

It's super tricky to score advertising space.

... The basic idea is simply to...

Quite frankly, I don't give a damn.

I'm only here as an observer.

Remember, phase 1.

I have to convince them my product is the best.

? How?

Charm and seduction.

C'mon, it's a scratch.

? Lots of women attend these shows?

No.

Yes, obviously.

Snag a plate of champagne, a glass of canaps, here I go.

Calm down, take a deep breath.

Breathe.

! I'm breathing!

The aim is to get advertising space without resorting to charm or seduction.

Great.

You win. Let's go to the bathroom.

! You bet!

T Shirt off.

No problem.

Ok, we're talking protein diet.

Your turn.

Ok, a little sex game.

? What's that?

2 Phase 2.

... Refutation. You get the urge to seduce...

? Are you nuts? I can't work in this.

... Keep it professional or...

- ! - - That hurts, dammit! - It's the whole idea.

It's called a Pavlovian reflex.

You're a dog. See a bone, you drool.

I'll stop you drooling.

As metaphors go, that's very hurtful. Sexist even.

You disappoint me.

I concede your point. But I'm here to get results.

Just checking,

? your shirt stays on?

Sugar West's launch is a major event, with a refined and elegant range.

It's not easy for a US brand to move in on the French luxe market.

Sure, but not impossible.

With a little more time, I'd explain our strategy in-depth.

... I don't know if you have dinner plans, for example...

? You ok?

Just great.

Sorry, I had a big game of tennis yesterday.

Must've trapped a nerve.

As I was saying, let's discuss this

over breakfast at a hotel.

Or we could meet at your office

with your team.

Let's do that, yes. Here's my card.

Call my assistant, set up a meeting.

Absolutely.

This won't work. I'm doing my job.

Find another way to do it.

There are men here, too.

? Where?

... I'm establishing the correlation between desire...

Claire Dumaze, boss of lvas. The chance of a lifetime.

! Great!

It's no reason to push people.

Sure, go see her,

but no charming smile or dumb pickup lines.

It's a super test.

! Sadist! You love causing pain.

When you can't control yourself.

! I can control myself!

! Hey, babe!

You missed the cable payment.

I had to watch terrestrial all day.

Benoit, we need to talk.

? What's up?

You know I have a peculiar patient.

The hopeless romantic with no self-control.

? The sex addict?

Yes, it's more complex than that.

Whatever.

24 I need to spend 24 hours a day with him this week.

Ok, no problem.

7 24 I'll be 24/7 with a guy who can't resist women

? and it's no problem?

? So what?

? Honestly, Benoit, what are we doing together?

Sure, you get rent, food...

Ok, I skipped cable.

I get it.

It's a shrink trick. You're testing me.

No.

I've tried everything.

? ? Where are we going? Do we ever say, I love you?

? I don't like your tone, ok?

Get out of my house.

Your tone was fine.

It was great tone.

No worries.

! Go!

I love you.

So the mover forgets his luxury watch,

? the electrician leaves his silk tie. Who's next?

Don't stereotype people.

? An electrician can't have a silk tie?

Sure, for cocktails after work.

- ! - - This is nuts! - Summer in the Bahamas...

? Who says it was silk?

Evening.

! I protest your presence here!

! We've discussed this. Enough!

I'll show you your room.

Or my room.

? Yours?

In a huge bed, it's no problem.

It's a problem.

I'll take the couch with Unc.

! Evening!

- ? - - We're not too early? - It's fine.

You're the first to arrive. Come in.

Thank you.

Hey.

Sorry, all we had.

Thanks.

? What did you mean by "first to arrive"?

They arrived before the others.

? You're on the 1st floor?

Yeah, we're roommates.

That's cool. Roommates.

We study psychology.

Cool, psychology.

We share everything.

Cool, you share.

Yes, it's cool you share.

Gabriel, I believe you've met Pauline.

Bzz'd her.

? Dessert?

? Before appetizers?

You've stopped coming up.

- - - With my groceries. - Crucial detail, Mrs. Roland.

It's great to meet all the neighbors.

Yeah, better than bumping into people in the hallway.

Nice watch.

I found it, so I kept it.

Of course.

Joseph,

? I never saw you. What do you do?

I'm depressive. Full-time.

You crack me up.

Tell the invader to refrain from talking to me.

- - - Invaderess. I'm a woman. - I noticed.

The bordello odor.

You should know, apparently.

? So, dessert?

Marie-Zoe, what's the idea of two ugly names

? ? stuck together? Daddy chose Marie, Mommy chose Zo?

? Tie-breaker?

Strange your wife left you.

She didn't leave me, she's taking stock.

? For two years?

There's no timeframe.

No tempo for the stocko.

So, we'll be going.

Yup, that's right.

? No dessert?

- - - No, we're fine. - Thank you.

See you, neighbors.

! You can't just invite people without telling us. Mrs. Roland!

To get you out of your comfort zone, face your limits.

And you nailed it.

Thank you. Such a pretentious woman.

Not you, misogynist.

I have a big day tomorrow. I need an early night.

- ? - - You have all you need? - Yes.

Goodnight.

Thanks for the warm welcome.

I wish you a very bad night.

Truly.

! The little slut!

? Where's Gabriel?

? Are you out of your mind?

- ? - ? - You know the time? - Where is he?

? You think I'm a snitch?

You're knocking on the wrong puerta.

- - ? - I'll never talk. - Where is he?

- - ? - Even under tortura. - Really?

? Still not talking?

? Where is he?

? Where's Gabriel?

? Know her?

No.

Sure, he knows me.

And our kids, Francis and Benedict, who he takes to school.

Good job.

? Since when do I call my kids, Francis and Benedict?

Francis is great. Francis Bacon.

? And eggs Benedict? They're not kids, they're a breakfast.

C'mon, it's funny.

- - - Your shirt's inside-out. - No.

It is.

? I see the seam, you see?

? What are you doing here?

I couldn't sleep after your dinner party.

I wanted a quiet drink.

Fine, let's have a drink.

Fine.

I couldn't sleep either.

I admit I got you wrong.

I underestimated the seriousness of your disorder.

But I can see you're in pain.

... While I acknowledge it, I...

- -? We can't talk here. - Why not?

It's cool. I love talking in clubs.

Sure, but not here.

Ok, you can focus here?

Yeah, sure.

It's a great place.

? Dancing?

Badly.

No, I have a theory. Hot guys are great dancers.

Your theory's wrong. He said he's a terrible dancer.

? And guys?

? Ever been tempted?

Not especially, but I keep an open mind.

? ? Guys? Ever been tempted?

Very funny, Gabriel.

- - - You're uncomfortable here. - No, actually, not a bit.

You're uncomfortable.

I'm not at all uncomfortable.

A drink on me.

? The subject?

I said, a drink on me.

No, thanks.

- - - It's not a question. - I'm married with 2 kids.

Francis Pancake and Eggs Benedict.

... I'm here with my wife and...

? And?

! Drink!

A drink's as far as I go.

I drank. That's as far as I go.

That's what they all say.

! That's my wife!

MZ? MZ?

MZ! MZ!

? Want a coffee?

No.

? What time is it?

Time to go to work. We have a big day.

MZ? You're no clubber, are you, MZ?

MZ? What's With MZ?

... After our amazing night of passion...

? What?

Joke.

You crashed out after we gave each other nicknames.

And then we made love.

- - - Joke again. - Very funny.

... Gabriel...

? Gabs, can you leave so I can get up?

? After last night, you're going shy on me?

Good point.

Pancakes, eggs Benedict for me.

Today's an important day. Presentation of the new campaign.

She stuck her boobs in my face, kerpowed me with boobs.

- ? - ? - What do you call that? - Boob-power?

! Boob-power in the kisser!

Last phase. I'm in your ear.

... You follow my instructions and when we...

Kerpowing with boobs is off limits.

The line is crossed.

! We're going rogue. Anarchy! Boob warfare!

I was doing my job.

! No more titty, Marie-Zo. iFinita la bazooma!

Unc, cut it out.

! Boob-power will not stand!

They're only boobs.

No boob-powering Unc. It's uncalled for.

? Rmy, what's going on here?

- ? - - Who are all these girls? - Bloggers.

Journalists, not girls. It'll be fine.

I'll take a look.

Shit, I feel funny.

? One of them looked at me. What do I say to her?

Say it's love but it's too soon.

Say nothing or you'll all wind up in jail.

? Why all these people?

Henriette's big on social media,

so it was a piece of cake.

Gabriel, I think I'm getting hard.

No, you cannot say that.

Hi, Marie-Zo.

- - ? - Love you. - What?

? What you what? Let's go.

- - - I'm going cold turkey. - Keep calm.

I can't. I smell perfume.

! Calm down!

... Musky, fruity. spicy...

It's a good test.

Give your presentation and we go home.

Succeed and your life will change.

- - - I can't on my own. - You're not on your own.

Come on.

! Shirt off!

This earpiece is a transmitter and receiver.

I won't be far.

I'll be watching and guiding you.

Alright.

? Is that all?

? So I didn't need to take my shirt off?

I'm so sorry.

No, I'm sorry. Your shirt.

Rinse it off in the bathroom there.

Rinse it off in the bathroom there.

- ? - ... - Where? - I'll take you...

! No, Gabriel!

No, I won't.

! Definitely not. Focus!

! You don't have to shout, dammit!

? Sorry?

No, just behind me, to your left.

There you go.

Adjust the sound.

- ? - - Where are you? - Opposite.

Here.

! You total maniac!

Total professional.

o give your presentation. Focus.

t'll be fine. Keep calm.

... So...

Thank you for coming, ladies.

Hey, Serge.

Deep breaths.

! Breathe!

Lose the goofy smile.

irst up,

I'd like to introduce our team.

Rmy.

Mathias.

And Yohan there.

He's fine.

Until now, lingerie always keyed into male domination.

To be desirable,

a woman flaunts her assets, but it's an illusion.

A scrap of lace fools them into feeling in control

but the reality is quite the opposite.

Remember, behind every man,

is a woman whispering in his ear.

And she has the power.

Today I bring you a vision

that's less regressive of male-female relationships.

Our campaign concept is simple.

A woman wearing quality underwear

has no need to flaunt it. It shows.

She walks different.

She feels different.

She is different.

Seduction is a private matter.

Excuse me.

? So we never see the product?

! D'0h. Airhead!

? When you feel so good why show what you're wearing?

It's our core message.

Eyes off her. Focus on bald Serge.

! Good! Imagine all those women with Serge's face.

For the first time in advertising,

what's to see is not what's for sale.

Women deserve a new epoch.

You deserve a new era.

Not you, Serge.

And that era, ladies,

at Sugar West, is right now.

Right now.

Bravo, I'm proud of you.

You're ready.

Bravo, I'm proud of you.

- ? - - Really? - Sure. Now pick up Yohan.

- ? - - Can we talk to them? - No.

- - - Not even the tall one? - Not even.

Pick him up.

Wake up.

- - - Congratulations. - Thanks.

A rare mix for a VP of Sales, sensitivity and audacity.

? What's he playing at?

? Can I interview you?

? ! What are you doing? Focus!

? The little bald guy, get it?

The little bald guy.

Baldy butt naked.

I'm sorry.

Yes, sensitive and tactile

are my main flaws.

! Bastard!

I can be very persuasive.

It's hard to cure. I always get what I want.

! Little slut!

Cool. Me too, generally.

! She's gonna jump!

! It's Marie-Zo!

She's completely crazy.

I love her.

It's all my fault.

I was too hard on you, too demanding.

Only natural for you to crack.

Mom, it wasn't suicide. I was helping a patient.

Your breakup with Benoit.

That's why.

It crushed you.

Unrequited love is crushing.

Mr. Bertrand nails it.

Call me Bertrand.

My little girl will soon find someone else.

Hello.

? Bad time?

No.

Mom, this is Gabriel.

Hello.

My new man.

? He is?

? I am?

Yes, that's me, her new man.

You scared me.

I couldn't bear to lose you.

You see, I'm here.

... How long are you two...

I'll be going.

Great meeting you, Raphael.

Tomorrow, I'm holding a dinner for her discharge.

You're welcome to come.

Here I go.

! Rgine!

I came as soon as I heard.

Go home and leave my daughter alone, you sack of shit.

... Come on...

? ? How'd I do? She bought it?

A peck on the cheek was enough.

Or even a solid handshake.

Thanks for all you did for me.

You're completely crazy.

Nobody ever did that for me before.

... I mean, I...

I feel better, ready to face Henriette.

And it's down to you. Thank you.

Thanks a lot.

You don't have to come to my mother's.

Sure I will, it's cool. I'd love to.

Ok, cool.

7? So I'll come by yours around 7?

You got it, sounds great.

See you then.

See you.

? You opened the window?

- ? - ? - Ok, Gabs baby? - Good, and you?

? Going out?

- ? - ? - With Marie-Zo to her mother's. - Her mother's?

You're in love.

? In love? No way.

It's just dinner.

MZ 0 I owe it to her. With MZ on the job, I seduced zero girls.

She's the one for you.

? What?

All it proves is that I can control myself.

You look good.

You look good but don't fool yourself.

You know I adore you.

Maybe it's time you got a grip, too.

Life's waiting for you.

And you don't keep life waiting.

Sorry to tell you, Auntie Martha won't be back.

Ever

Not so fast.

? ? What do you know about love? What do you know?

Nada.

? You expect to choose the love of your life?

You're wrong.

You catch love, like flu.

That day, you'll know. You'll see her everywhere.

In any woman's eyes, scent, face or smile.

Any way she moves wiggling her butt.

That woman for me is Auntie Martha.

? Making a big mistake, am I?

It's a family meal, nothing special.

? Yes, I put a dress on. So what?

For a shrink, talking to your reflection in the mirror is pushing it.

MZ! Doing things in style, MZ!

You blow me away.

Relax, Gabriel.

This isn't a kidnapping.

- ? - - Where are we going? - Our country house.

So we can get to know each other.

Alright, let's get to know each other,

? but isn't our big weekend slated for the weekend?

... Today's Thursday...

So it's not the weekend. Well spotted.

But let's all live dangerously.

? You had other plans perhaps?

No, no plans.

-? - - You here? - Picking up Gabriel.

Gabriel went with you.

I thought.

? Frankly, what do you want from my nephew?

... I don't know. It's him, he needs...

Or not, apparently.

... Listen...

I was like him once. In love with love.

I bzz'd all the girls.

So she left me.

You see.

But he's

different.

... He's...

different, period.

Sorry, life's waiting.

You don't keep it waiting.

Take me inside.

Take me in.

Take me.

? We keep life waiting, after all?

To be honest, Gabriel,

I know your reputation.

Watch out, I'm misunderstood.

? You want me?

You want me.

... I never mix business and...

? And?

...? Never mix business and?

... And...

And there we are.

? How are you,baby?

? Are you cooking a chicken?

Yes,of course

This is Gabriel.

Nice to meet you,Mr Dickinson.

3 There are three archangles.

One call himself Gabriel.

He refuse to listening to lucifer.

... Are you ready...

? to say "no" again to lucifer ?

Well,It's depends on who is lucifer?

So ,I can only give you 2 minutes

- ? - - to a phone call, ok, baby? - Ok.

Behave.

All right.

I've been told a lot about you.

? You wanna know what's their words?

You heard that I work hard

but I have tended to be late.

I heard that you are the very very best

at what you do

... Mr Dickinson...

but then again ,they also said that

If I hair you...then

You are going to try for my wife

... Mr Dickinson...

You and I all know that never happen

? Right?

Of course

? Of course,you have killed a man with a knife?

No

I beat a guy in laos.

...... And... about...

thousands miles.

Thank you.

I'am Ok

The rifle shot.

When it windy that day

... You know it's probably only...

...8... ...eight maybe...

10 or ten

in all the world

can shoot like that.

? Is this the plot of lethal weapon?

It' his favourate film

Actually there are three important things in my life

... That would be...

... My business...

... My wife...

? Has he dead?

He is narcolepsy

...? Narco...what?

He will sleep all night.

? Shall we go to bed?

? We?

He'll be here. You know what men are like.

Always late.

Or dead.

... Honeybun...

Look, I made you beetroot salad.

Great.

Kidding. I know you hate it.

I ordered tabbouleh.

? Not that either?

? Who fed you as a child?

The nanny.

Her.

You know, after your father died, life became complicated.

For me, too.

? I was such a terrible mother?

No.

? No, not a terrible mother?

? Or not such a terrible mother?

I could get to like beetroot.

I'm awfully sorry but I think I'm in love.

I'm sorry.

You're sublime.

Too bad for the job.

You're quite unique, Gabriel.

Welcome to Sugar West.

Go find her.

Thanks.

Thank you.

... One last thing...

Without reception, I can't call a cab.

? So how do I get back?

? Are you allowed to drive?

... well...

Not really

Technically

... You know...

There is a proverb in my country

... A story about ducks...

... And...

Mr Dickinson!

? What's your scream about?

- - ... - You wake me up! - oh Damn...

? Cann't we have a nap here?

God's name!

- - ...... - Everything is fine - Yes,fine fine...

... So I told you the proverb...

... about...

Mr Dickinson!

! Wake up! We are gonna die

? ? Daniel? What brings you here at this time?

I'm sorry, but I need a word with your daughter.

And the name's Gabriel.

You're late.

My husband was often late, too.

? You know where he is now?

He's dead.

So leave my little girl in peace, Lionel.

- ! - ! - Scram! - Please!

! ... One second! Just to...

MZ MZ, look, I need you.

Professionally speaking. I can't get someone out of my head.

I think I'm in love.

No, that's not love.

You think it's love 'cause she resists.

I can't stop thinking about her. I see her everywhere.

Right now, I see her in front of me. In her pajamas.

? Can't you help me?

You need therapy.

With someone. I'm not the one for you.

You are.

Yes, you are.

You're exactly the one I need.

? You know the best way to defuse the love issue?

We need to hook up right away.

Shirt off.

Here I come.

I'm gonna bzz.

! Martha!

! Pablo de la Poya!

I saw your ad online.

You're my first client.

And last, I hope.

200 Martha, it's 200!

! Goodness!

? Which Kama Sutra position are you?

Doggy.

? And you guys?

? And you?
