Respire (Breathe) (Respire)

Flaunting your hanky-panky!

What hanky-panky? I don't get you!

She's a friend from work. Haven't you ever run into a guy...

Just say it!

You really think I'd swallow that bullshit?

- Don't start! - It's unbearable!

- You're a pain. - Just say it!

You're exhausting.

You take off without a word.

I wait for you.

No!

Just tell me!

Want some eggs?

No, thanks.

Have some eggs!

Want me to drop you off?

No, I'll take the bus.

Really?

Wipe your nose.

Please.

Eat!

Eat!

Move!

Hi!

What's up?

She's hysterical!

Do you think passion is a means

or an obstacle to freedom?

When you're passionate, are you more free or less free?

So?

Any ideas? Lucas!

We don't choose passion, we feel it.

We feel it, yes.

We feel those emotions against our will.

You say "we feel" and point to your head.

No, it's here.

In the heart or...

It's even more specific.

Plato was the first to define it.

He said reason resides in the head

and passion, in the gut. Not the heart, the gut.

Thus the expression, "to have guts."

Anyone else? Yes, Charlie.

Nietzsche says it's easier to renounce passion than control it.

Meaning we become so preoccupied by it

that we lose a kind of freedom.

Exactly. It's the notion of excess.

Passion is harmful when it becomes excessive,

which is most of the time.

Shit!

Concentrate! Screw horoscopes.

- Stop! - This is more important!

Gastine, are you a virgin?

Very funny! Excellent!

We were supposed to go to the movies but it was sold out.

Mostly ‘cause we were late!

Are you together or not?

I don't know.

- Is the English quiz tomorrow? - Yeah.

Shit, I forgot.

- Didn't you study? - I couldn't this weekend.

- See you tomorrow! - Yeah!

Did he leave?

Yeah.

I think so.

I asked you to use that formula

to solve the equation f of minus x prime.

I understood that!

- I understood. - Be my guest!

I'll do it.

I'm taking my time. I'm savoring it.

It's such a pleasure to know the answer.

Someone's knocking.

Good day. Just a brief interruption.

We have a new student, Ms. Perrin...

Sarah.

I'll leave her with you.

Excuse me, Ms. Porchet...

Minus infinity.

I'll let you get back to work.

We'll find you a seat.

Letellier, move over there.

- Sit there. - Thank you.

We're doing exponential functions. Does that ring a bell?

- Sort of. - Sort of?

Ms. Citrinovic will certainly be able to explain it

and get you up to speed.

Not everyone can! Right, Gastine?

- I beg your pardon? - Gastine!

I savored it! I took my time.

I appreciate that!

- Is it right? - It is. Bravo!

A chick says, "Hi" and he's at her door.

Hey, maybe. You don't know but maybe.

I don't know.

Are you dumb or what?

That's disgusting!

- Why get that? - I dunno!

It's revolting!

Could you give me a hand with history tomorrow?

Sure.

Could we do it at your place? Mine's crammed with boxes.

- No problem. - Thanks.

I'll give you some tomorrow!

Here.

"Smoking Kills." Those from the U.S.?

No, Nigeria.

They cost nothing there.

Why were you in Nigeria?

My mom works for an NGO. I lived there for 4 years.

But now the AQMI rebels crossed the border.

It's a big mess.

So I came back to France to graduate.

- And she stayed? - Yeah.

You're all alone?

I live with my aunt.

My mom works for Meals On Wheels.

- If she comes, I can hook them up. - Great idea!

You wanna take her for coffee?

Cut it out!

It's your big day!

Right!

I spent 3 hours primping, put on this awesome dress...

I get to Covent Garden - this really cozy, cute little pub.

I wait half an hour, 45 minutes...

Then James shows up and says the guy's a huge liar.

- Compulsive liar! - No way!

Everything he said was a lie.

He never had fans.

His fling with the opera singer was a crock of shit!

So he wasn't related to Michael Jackson?

No, he's a liar. A bullshitter.

Yeah...

That's creepy.

That's how the world is.

Bye, see you tomorrow!

Victoire's your best friend?

Yeah.

I've known her since 6th grade.

Her apartment's a horror! Rococo with all this gilding.

And what's really weird, when my aunt laughs,

it's not a normal laugh. She cackles. It's like...

- That's horrible. - It's unbearable.

Always?

I go out of my way to avoid it.

I can see why!

What?

Hold on...

I'll take it upstairs. Hang up for me!

Your mother's cool.

She's really young!

She had me at 18.

At 18?

- Can you imagine being pregnant? - Not really.

What's the deal?

It's my father.

What about him?

She should just tell him to fuck off.

Leave her alone! Fuck off!

Are you crazy? What came over you?

- What did you say? - To leave you alone.

Do you realize?

- Now he's gonna... - Fuck off!

Yeah, I heard!

You think that's funny?

You know your father! You know how he'll be!

What came over you? Do you realize?

You're both completely nuts!

I couldn't stop myself.

It was just so distasteful!

He hung up on me.

I just don't get it!

He blew me off, like I didn't exist.

Not even hi!

Yesterday, it was the opposite. What a jerk!

He didn't sit with us in English.

I don't know what to do. But outside school...

He's ashamed of you!

It's as simple as that. Stop whining!

Don't you think?

Your name's really Charlène?

Stop! Yeah, my name's Charlène!

Don't make fun of me!

But no one calls me that.

I guess not!

Except my father. I hate it.

They're horrible.

I used to do capoeira. Now they're a real mess.

Heroes of Greek mythology - Hercules...

Unbelievable!

Dinner's ready.

And that French teacher! I couldn't keep my eyes open.

Take it out.

Try it like that.

- How? - With your finger!

What?

Fuck!

Put this on.

You sure?

Rubber band!
