Take It Easy Its a Waltz (Laisse aller... c'est une valse)

Albert Simon, good weather news today.

In Normandie, they say "There's as much sun shining hours on the All Saint's day

than weeks to blow in your hands." Now the beautiful fall ends,

the trees will turn bald and my hair will grow back. Rain asks to be washed down!

LIBERTY

EQUALITY

FRATERNITY

PRISON

RELEASED ON THE 2 OF NOV. 1970

Here we go again with that shit.

I put some music. I guess you didn't hear much of it across the street.

An espresso. Make it strong, I've been waiting for this for five years.

Nobody cared to pick you up? Not even a friend?

No. I've got only one and he can't come.

He's too far?

No, he's just across the street. But he still has 43 days to do.

Then you'll come to pick him up. - I don't know if I'm gonna could

but anyway there's gonna be people waiting for him.

RELEASED ON THE 15 OF DEC.

Remission! What does it mean? He was supposed to serve six years.

It's unfair. - He was a model prisoner.

I really can't help it.

Don't worry, I've got four men waiting for him. They won't miss him.

What's the matter? Are you crying?

He's still my husband.

Aubin, you won a remission thanks to your exemplary behaviour.

But we're gonna do more. We'll help you not to fall again

in the diabolical spiral of crime.

Superintendent Caillaud had an idea.

I put you in so I wanted to be there to help you out in the best possible conditions.

Count Charles Varese's men are waiting for you outside,

we can't let them slaughter you, do we?

Come have a look.

Come.

There's four of them.

The driver is Djemal, an Indian.

That's Reuter, you already know him.

So as Tosca, the Italian.

Here's a new guy, Congo. An American bully.

Why don't you lock them up? They're right in front of you!

I agree they're killers but they're also registered executives!

With pay stubs and papers in order.

Is the count such a big shot? - You know I'm just a humble superintendent.

And I won't change the world five years before retirement.

That's a shame.

You're right, that's a shame.

In the meanwhile, you're gonna take a tunnel who'll lead you

two streets away in a building's cellar.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

But by the way, Aubin... We're saving your life right now...

You agree, don't you? We're saving your life.

Yes.

That deserves a piece of information, no?

You tell us where the jewels are hidden. Just in a friendly way...

Santini gets them.

- You heard everything, my dear friend. - That's crystal clear.

After three years in jail, he's still the same!

I questioned him myself for two days and two nights, he's always deny.

- What's gonna happen to him? - He'll tell us like a good boy

where he hid the jewels and that's all. That's all I want.

Are they gonna torture him?

Dunno. We'll see...

And you're the one who mentioned the jewels after all.

So?

You don't want them anymore?

I want him to stay alive.

So that's your final word: you don't have the jewels?

Well.

Then you'll go out on your own by the main door.

But those guys don't belong to the League of Human Rights.

They'll know how to make you speak.

You'll end up regretting the good old republican police.

That's a shame.

The two of us could have get along. - It's true: that's a shame.

Rethink about it, Aubin... - BUT I'M TELLING YOU THAT...

THAT'S ENOUGH! Santini gets the jewels, okay.

It's a nicely packaged story but we don't buy it. Your Santini doesn't exist.

Nobody knows him, nobody ever saw him: he's a ghost.

You never had any accomplice, anyway. You always worked on your own.

You hid the jewels. Everybody told it at your trial, even your wife.

My wife is a bitch.

- I'm not a bitch. - Of course. But when a woman

has been bitchy with a man, she can be bitchy with another man.

I'd better be cautious.

George won't move from the door. - Hello, Countess. Hello, Count...

- You've seen? - So if I get it, I can't go out anymore.

Shit!

It's just to avoid you making something stupid. Like going at

the prison, for example. - To do what?

- To give him a hand. - He said he wanna kill me; I'm not crazy.

Anyway, if he wants to reach you, he's gonna have a long way to go.

Come have a look.

Look who's waiting for him: Manuel in the car park;

and inside the Meari, Albert and Daniel.

See? I thought of everything.

I don't want to lose you. - My love!

It's okay, you can come in.

- Hello, sir. - Hello.

A shandy. - With lots of beer or lots of lemonade?

With lots of both.

What are you drinking?

Shandy.

Not a bad idea.

And you? - A Ricard.

- Two shandies and a Ricard, please. - Yes.

I have to take a leak.

Go with him.

Can I go, now?

I was afraid you won't be here.

Don't worry, I planed everything.

What are we doing? There is four of them, I hope you brought a bazooka.

You'll go with them and I'll come at the right moment.

What if you don't come?

I'd be waiting for Zorro while I'd get my face smashed in.

I'll be there before they get a chance to touch you, don't worry.

And her? Do you know where she is? - Come on, don't you start

bugging me again with your chick!

I told you: don't worry, I planed everything.

- How far have you got? - Just a sec! There's no rush!

Okay, let's go.

They got him.

Here they come.

Hey, Serge; how do you like being outside?

If we need you, we'll call you on the entry phone. Understood?!

I hope you don't mind if I walk first.

Yes?

Okay.

Hey, go wait in the hall.

Come on, in the hall!

Okay, put him through.

Hi, Serge. I heard you want to speak to me about the jewels.

I know you have them because a husband has no secret for his wife.

Serge...

You got away from me once three years ago. But now I want you to talk.

Carla...

You know, Carla, I'm gonna kill you.

I'm gonna kill you!

I don't know anything!

Congo...

I'll go at my office. You'll let me know.

It's Santini!

Again.

If he makes it, he'll break the record.

- Is that you, honey? - Yes, it's me.

He didn't break the record.

Where are the jewels?

Okay, let's try. But I disagree.

Electroshocks of variable intensity and length

successively given on the main nerve centers.

It's awesome! - I don't know anything.

How do you manage to keep your chin up?

I fight for a right cause.

CARNAL PRELUDE

What are you doing, sir?

Oh, yes! Again.

I don't know anything!

Plug it.

Do I start?

Go ahead.

The fuses have blown.

I can see that.

Oh, yes; tighten me hard.

I love it.

I'm gonna waste you!

Untie him.

Hurry up!

What's the names of your friends in the Volkswagen? - What?

Come on, what's their names?

- Pierre and Carlo. - Thanks.

It wasn't too long, isn't it?

You didn't worry? - Of course not since you'd planed everything!

- No more than 30 seconds!? - No more than 30 seconds.

- And the second time? - There's no second time.

After, I'm beat, I just fall asleep.

- Did you tried some medicines? - You bet! Medicines...

Pierre, Carlo... Come quickly!

I tried everything, even sport; come on!

- And? - I run the 100 meters in 12 seconds.

Yes, we've done a wonderful work.

But now the lesson's over. I'm fed up with it!

You understand? I'm nervous today. Nervous!

So now, relax.

Me have little shower.

What!? Do you wanna have a shower?

If it's what you want, go ahead.

After you.

- What's wrong with the elevator!? - It's coming!

- I can't even climb ten floors. - Don't worry; it was the same

for me when I got out.

Hurry up; I'll wait for you downstairs. - Yeah.

- Well, Mr Ferglough... - FERGLOUTH.

Hurry up!

Not here, there!

Charles, is that you?

Charles, is that you?

Serge!

Are you okay? - Not too bad.

Are you alone, honey?

- Come on in. - Remember what I told you?

I don't care.
