Ruby & Quentin (Tais-toi !)

Shut Up!

Hands up! Robbery!

Give me the money, hurry up!

What's that?

It's Yen, Sir.

I don't want Chinese money.

It's not Chinese money, it's Japanese. The exchange rate is very good.

Shut up! I need Euro! French Euro!

I still had some a moment ago. Those Japs took them all.

Did they rob you?

No, they exchanged their Yen.

Damn it!

Where can I change your Yen? Can you help me change it?

I only have British Pounds and Canadian Dollars.

What the hell is this place?

Exchange bureau, Sir.

I thought it was a bank.

No problem, there's one at the corner.

Is it a small savings bank?

Yes, a rather famous one, BFC.

Everybody hands up! Robbery!

He went that way!

Excuse me, sir.

Sorry sir!

How are you!

I am Quentin, I'm from Montargis.

Are you eating?

No, I'm shitting.

You're kidding, right?

Is it little cracker?

What do you want?

I'm just asking. I'm sure this is little cracker.

Do you always eat with the same side of your jaw?

Do you want to keep bugging me?

I ask because your teeth on the left are probably rotten, so you always eat with your right.

I knew a guy once, called Mish

or Mishra, I forget, whatever.

Can you shut up? I want to sit on my own.

Oh, please go on eating, it won't disturb me.

That guy Mish, Mishra or Misha, I don't know.

He's the same as you, the left cheek always swollen.

I laughed and said to him,

"You look like an ass, but only one side of an ass", ha ha.

- Go on, do you want me to crack your head? - Alright!

"Only one side of an ass", I called him.

He eats just like you with the noise, a real pig.

I said to him, "One side of an ass, you eat like a pig."

It's him again, real asshole!

I don't understand.

We were just talking and suddenly he jumped at me.

Can't lock him up here.

I know, but we don't have enough single cells.

Every time when he was locked up with someone else.

Perhaps there's a way to solve this.

Concentrate.

What do you see here?

A stain?

Yes, correct.

But, what does this stain remind you of?

Keep concentrating.

A dye house?

Quentin, it's about the shape of the stain,

not the way to remove it.

Oh, I'm sorry!

Just a little fly, I didn't catch it.

So? That stain?

There is another one on your tie.

No, we're talking about that one!

This one is okay.

The one disturbing me is the stain on your tie.

Don't move...

Oh! Stupid asshole! My God!

I got it.

I said it's only a stain.

Sorry, I cannot take him.

Oh no, you can't say that.

I examined him carefully and he's not mad.

His mental condition is completely coherent and under control.

Go ahead then, doctor.

Okay.

To be honest, he is unbelievably stupid.

Doctor, you must get him out of here. I'm certain he belongs at an asylum.

My place is for the mad, not for idiots.

You can consider building one for idiots, but,

just imagine its scale.

So?

Do anything exciting today?

Nothing special, I did some shopping.

He didn't say a word after being arrested, not a single word.

I don't know his details.

You see, I can do this too.

I can also shut up for several hours, staring at the wall across.

We've found the body.

Go on looking at the wall, just like a movie. I'll show you the scene.

A forest, middle of the night.

A plastic bag buried underneath, with a woman decomposing inside.

A beautiful woman shot by Vogel because she slept with you.

Do you like it?

Let's go on, I'll show you another scene.

A cash delivery van hit by a rocket.

Carnage on the road.

A man comes from nowhere to take the money from the robbers.

This one's good too, right?

Do you like any of these?

Now we change to another scene.

Now we are in Vogel's house.

You have worked for him long enough.

Needless to say how beautiful and luxurious the place is.

The only ugly part of the decoration, is Vogel.

He's furious, because you've made him uncomfortable.

That cash box...

Ruby, it's Vogel I'm after, not you.

Give me Vogel and the money

and I'll get you out of here in no time.

I'll let you continue looking at the wall. I believe you will help.

The scene with the plastic bag in the forest... If this makes you feel bad, call me.

How do you do?

I am Quentin, I'm from Montargis.

None of my business.

You don't want to talk.

You get like that when you stay too long in prison.

How long have you been here?

I knew an African. He came from Antilles.

If he comes from Antilles, he is an Antillean, idiot! Not African!

No, he is African, named Joseph.

Some Antilleans are also named Joseph.

I don't know.

Perhaps.

You see, now you want to talk.

What's your name?

Joseph.

Then you are African.

No, I am Antillean, idiot!

Just like that Joseph, he is African,

Martinian and Antillean.

Are you kidding me?

Oh no, on the contrary, I like Africans.

It won't help for me to worry.

He stares at the wall.

You know that.

Ruby, he is an old hand.

That method can do nothing to him.

Oh no!

It's him again!

What's happening?

Quentin.

The guy looking for trouble. He's real stupid, always getting into fights.

Look at this idiot.

He made 5 prisoners mad in 2 weeks.

How are you?

I am Quentin, I'm from Montargis.

What are you looking at?

Can I have a look?

I don't see anything.

Ah, yes!

The spider over there?

I tried to communicate with it once. To be honest, I failed.

It was very reluctant.

I give it orders, it wouldn't listen.

Even simple orders.

Sit, lie, go back, no action.

It just stays there, stares at me.

Looks like it does not understand a bit.

It's difficult to believe. Perhaps I have come across the least talented.

Just like that for one whole month... I didn't wait.

If you like, we can try this one as well.

But I'm afraid you will be disappointed too.

Tell you one thing, I really like your hair

and your eyes like that of a horse.

Don't think I'm kidding, I mean it.

You have a pair of eyes like a colt.

Very Good!

I wanted to be a jockey when I was small.

But I grew up too big for a jockey.

I had been a stable boy.

The horses there have big and beautiful eyes, just like yours.

I love the stable, it smells good there.

The horses there stare with their large eyes

showing a little sadness.

You see, I'm very happy to stay with you here.

Just like I was in the stable.

This is the horse gets thirsty.

You see, if we bring them out for a round...

He will crack, I'm sure.

He stays in the cell, keeps silent,

has no contact with anybody.

Give me the order, I'll get rid of him.

How about my money?

I know Ruby, he'll get out very soon.

I will wait for him at the exit.

How are you, Quentin?

Very good, Mr. Warden.

Tell me, do you get on well with your new friend?

Very well.

He's real nice, interested in everything.

He doesn't talk much.

No.

But he listens.

I can talk about anything with him.

He never argues or fights with me.
