First Desires (Premiers désirs)

What are you waiting for? Why don't you help us?

I don't feel like going on the island anymore.

You're joking! For the past couple of weeks, that's all you've been talking about:

Island, mysteries and adventures. You're deserting us!

But it's too far... we will never get there.

Stop complaining. Come!!!

You don't want to come?

No, but be careful.

Of course!

Helene! Helene!

I'm so happy.

Helene!

You can not imagine how happy I feel. We missed you so much!

We were starting to panic and imagining all kinds of stupid things.

There were no reason to be frightened.

That's pretty. Where did you get it?

I found it.

Where... in a shop?

Don't be silly!

We were so worried.

We had an awful night.

I found your shoe.

Yes, but I lost the other one, too.

So... Are we going now?

Do you think we could borrow a rowboat?

Quite shrewd... and very funny... and why not a storm as well!

Seriously, I saw a house over there. We could ask for help. Let's go.

I already have enough of this island.

Do you think we should go this way?

Who knows!

What are we going to say to the islanders?

The truth.

They are going to call our parents.

I will be the one to call them.

Very well, I understand... The holidays are over.

But I won't tell anything. I'm not that stupid!

I'll tell the truth only to the residents of that house.

But I don't want mother to worry, that's all.

Don't worry, Helene will take care of everything.

Hey! Look over there.

Hey.. Sir... please... hey!

Hey... beautiful day, isn't it?

Take care and see you again!!!

Hey... Sir. Stop... Hey, sir!!!

This is the house.

So what do we do?

Well... you blow the candle!

Let's go, we will come back later.

They might not appreciate to be disturbed.

Let's go!

Caroline, are you coming?

Where are you going? Come back! Caroline! Caroline, come. It's enough!

Did you like the man of the house?

Which man?

Don't be silly.

Oh yes, I liked him. He is interesting.

Caroline, Helene, wait for me!

But... what's wrong with you again?

Listen... I have two feet and they are killing me.

You should have worn more comfortable shoes, you would not have that problem now.

Exactly!

If we would have asked for help from the pianist and her guy, we would not be in this situation.

Sit down. We will call a taxi and will come back, OK?

Don't leave! Wait for me!!!

Hurry up!

Wait.

Hey!

We are almost there. You will be able to rest, hurry up!

There is a coffee shop, over there, right at the corner.

Good morning!

Good morning!

Good morning!

I'm starving!

You're not the only one, but I don't have a penny.

Wait. Here's ten francs. Let see what you can do with it.

Anybody here? Please!

Good morning.

Good morning.

Can you tell me if there is a boat leaving for the mainland?

Do you want something to drink?

A coffee. And how about the boat?

Not before tomorrow morning.

Anyway... and how much is a sandwich?

With coffee, ten francs.

OK. But with a large one?

Large, like this?

Like this!

I'll get it for you!

Very good!

Wait a minute, just watch this.

Take this, where is Dorothee?

She left this way.

She does not waste anytime, doesn't she?

Ready? Let see how I can play!

You hold this for me!

OK, please, meet euh... what is your name?

Max.

And him? Who is he? OK... OK, let me concentrate.

Are you sure you know how to play the game?

Oh so so. Quiet!

Be careful... you know, little holes in these tables will cost you!

Chut! I know... I know... Here I go. Wow... wonderful. It's great.

My father was a great champion. He taught me how to play.

Our apartment is filled with cups and trophies.

We had a pool table... but we had to sell it.

When I was a child, I was playing under the table while my father played and... my father is dead.

Well... how about a little dancing.

Yes, let's go.

Dorothee, come with us.

What do you want to hear?

This one...

You want this one? OK...

There's my brother Etienne.

Come... I will introduce you.

Etienne, meet Helene.

Hi Etienne.

This is Dorothee, and the beautiful Caroline.

Hello!

How did you reach the island?

In a boat.

Ah!!! and when?

Yesterday. Why?

I only want to know... with that storm

We came in just before.

And the boat, where is it?

On the beach, somewhere.

And where did you sleep?

At our friends' place...

I see. And you will stay there for a while?

It depends.

Ah! It depends of what?

Of one person.

And I know that person?

I don't know maybe. And that's none of your business.

I don't have to answer all of those questions!!!

You know what? Raoul is inviting us on the island. We could stay there!

Yes. There are a lot of things to do...

Don't worry... let's go...

Yes Captain!

You know, earlier, I did not tell you the truth.

You lied to me?

Yes. I don't know anybody on that island.

Are you mad at me?

No no. You know...

I know what?

Nothing. Look, we're almost there.

Damn it. Look at my dress.

That's not my fault.

Ah! You... moron.

Stop fighting.

But it's not my fault.

Ok, everything is fine...

Dorothee, to whom are those things?

These are mine, We have everything.

You can bring them all.

Take everything, huh?

OK.

I take my bag there's still a lot to do.

Hurry up, Max.

Hey, just a minute.

Caroline, I lost the bag. I lost the bag.

But, which bag?

But. THE bag!

That's not true...

What kind of bag?

Like a grain sack!

Our fun money. All gone!

So, we will have to make a thorough search!

Let's go, all together.

Don't worry, we will find it.

But, do you realize?

No but... look at her, what is she doing!!!

Are you going to help us or are you waiting for me to send you a confirmation by fax?

No way, don't count on me. I just did my nails and I don't want to ruin them.

Back to the boys and girls.

Look over there!

I'll bet that you're looking for something.

Are you making fun of us?

Is this what you're looking for?

But... where did you find it?

That's what we agreed. You told me, if there was a problem, to call your folks with the money.

You did it?

I did it. I called but there were no answer.

We should go now if we want to reach the island before darkness.

OK, I'll be with you in a moment.

Dorothee, I have a letter for you.

Thank you.

Hurry up, girls.

And, besides that, how do you feel?

I'm OK... but the holidays are almost over. It's sad!

You're so right.

How is the island?

It's terrific. I'll tell you more.

OK

I'm the only one working here.
