Twice Upon a Time (Il était une seconde fois)

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

TWICE UPON A TIME

Cool party, bro.

- Did you take some? - Yeah.

You did? And...?

Jesus...

- You have more? - Hot shit.

Do you have more?

I do.

You're out?

Shit, I think I'm out!

Goddamn, you're white as a sheet!

How many d'you take?

How many hits?

- Only one, I swear. - You shitting me?

You're shitfaced!

We rule!

What's her name?

I just told you. Claire.

Dance!

Pump it up!

PLEASE DON'T LEAVE

The sky gets narrower as you're closing in.

A surprising outcome, considering...

When you're stopped, the rain falls vertically.

The apparent angle of the falling raindrops

is no longer vertical.

Goddammit.

Not too bad.

Hello. Are you Mr. Dauda?

Yes.

Vincent Dauda?

That's me.

Be right back.

If we were only 4 or 5, it'd work better.

We'd lead the pack.

That's the issue. Leadership.

There's too many of us, it's crazy. Right?

- Dunno. - For instance,

what do you know about Lithuania?

- Vilnius. - What?

Vilnius, the capital.

How did they manage 10 years ago? It was different.

People say, "We did it the same way."

Nope. I disagree.

Whole different ball game.

They don't get it. Their thinking's skewed.

People don't pick up on that. So the system fails.

Sorry, but...

What we call 'people, '

we don't know who that is.

I'm shooting my own foot, playing their game.

Sorry, I've got things to do.

Sure.

Have a good day.

Thanks. You too.

I'll be all right. I love my job so much,

I consider myself privileged.

So many people say... There I go again.

'People'.

Can't help myself. It's unavoidable.

What a pain.

Bye. See you soon.

Yeah, this is my beat.

Anything you order, I'll be the one...

Unless I'm off.

Thanks. Bye.

I'm no thief.

How'd that happen?

Dog. I swerved to avoid it.

I think it was a dog.

How are you?

Bad knees, bad neck, bad back.

Feet too.

Same old.

And the hands.

My fingers... See?

If I do this...

How about your glass-raising elbow?

That one still works.

Can you make it 700?

No. That was my last offer.

There's no such thing.

- I threw in the de-ionizer. - I have one.

Once again, yours isn't compatible with AM-Proxim.

Make it 650?

Is this an act?

If 700 was out, so is 650.

It's overpriced...

Hi.

650's impossible. No can do.

We would if we could.

Why so expensive?

Multiply your time together by 3.

No, it's the other way around. One-third.

If the relationship lasted 3 years, you'll suffer for one.

Chinese horoscope?

One day you'll realize Vietnam isn't in China.

How long since the breakup? Six months?

Four.

You're clear then!

Out of the shithole.

How long does the smell last?

Fuck.

What's this one?

What the hell?

Louise?

How many do you want?

What's wrong?

How long have you been here?

- Seriously? - Tell me.

We got here last night.

How long have we been together?

Are you joking?

How long?

Since we met?

That'd be...

We met 5 months ago. Yeah, 5.

9 months back...

Wait a second.

Vincent, is this some kind of joke?

I'm processing this. Thinking.

- About something. - But what?

Trying to figure out...

It's something...

It's totally...

But good. It's really good.

Like a dream.

Vincent...

Are you cold?

I'm fine.

You're being weird.

You're creeping me out.

Can I kiss you?

What's with you this morning?

I don't know.

Did you forget we'd had sex half an hour ago?

Shit. 9 o'clock, I have to go.

Where?

Meeting my thesis advisor.

Wait!

What?

- Stay with me. - I can't.

We can't be apart.

What's the matter with you?

- I'll go with you. - Are you nuts?

I won't impose. I'll wait outside.

I don't want you to.

You coming back?

No, I'll be all day.

- Tonight? - I'm seeing my family. I told you.

Please don't leave.

I need you.

We'll hook up tomorrow.

Ok?

What if we don't?

You're scaring me now.

Go back to bed.

I need to show you something downstairs.

Yeah, right.

I'm serious.

It's important.

Vincent, stop.

I have to leave.

I hate being late.

You live in the same place?

You're out of your mind.

Holy shit!

Can't believe this.

Police. Anyone here?

Hello.

Is this Renault yours?

Yes.

Why?

Can we come in?

He said you staggered out of the car.

He said that?

No. I was shaken up, that's all.

His mutt jumped under my wheels, I swerved away.

He didn't mention that?

No.

Not at all.

I save his dog, he turns me in. Unbelievable.

Can you prove it?

Nope.

Can he prove what he says?

Were you at Branly Junior High in 2001?

- Yes. - Were we together in 7th grade?

Yeah, could be.

Your face seems familiar.

I'm Mélanie Trouet's brother.

Of course, Mélanie's brother.

Small world.

How is Mélanie?

She lives in Perpignan. Three kids.

Married to a dork.

Bummer.

You'll need to make a statement.

Your insurance will require that. We good?

Yeah, sure.
