In the race?

I'm not allowed out on my own.

And meet Eddy Merckx.

Yes, really.

Surname, first name and

mum or dad's signature.

Signature...

Marie, take care of the trolleys.

REGISTRATION FORM

Hello, Mr Dermul.

We've come to introduce ourselves.

I'm Joris.

Joris from?

- From the Flemish Offensive.

A resistance movement

against the new supermarket.

We would like one of your sons

to join us.

I've only got one normal son.

He works in the shop.

This French supermarket

is putting all our shops in jeopardy.

We have to fight it.

Langeworp should remain Langeworp.

But you're not from Langeworp.

I don't think that...

- We solve our problems ourselves here.

We don't need any help from outsiders.

Go and play somewhere else.

What are you doing in here?

It was... It was too hot in my room.

Go back to your room. Hurry up.

Freddy! Freddy!

He's a strange boy.

Yes?

You're too late, son.

- Too late?

Registration has closed, sorry.

- But I'm as good as Eddy Merckx.

Eddy Merckx always comes first

and you're five minutes late.

Hi, rider.

I'm not allowed to take part.

- Aren't you?

No, he's too late.

- He's not, he's still got 5 minutes.

No, don't start. Don't start

- I will start.

You can make an exception.

That's enough. OK, go on.

Go and fetch the camera.

Hey, little Eddy Merckx!

Come here!

Come on, come here!

My daughter's watch says

it's five to twelve. You're lucky.

Are you really as good as Eddy Merckx?

- Yes, I really am.

I'm going to win and meet him.

- If you win you'll go to Roubaix.

Roubaix?

- Yes, to meet Eddy Merckx.

Isn't he coming to Langeworp?

- Eddy Merckx in Langeworp?

No, the winner will go to Roubaix

to meet him.

Eddy Merckx will give you a medal and

you can have your photo taken with him.

Really?

- Yes, really.

Friday we'll be going round the course,

so don't be late, champ. OK?

Say cheese!

Right...

Come on, Briek, keep up.

Come on, Jules.

Come on, guys. Push it in, Jules.

Hold it tight.

Position it properly. That's it.

That's it, let go.

Start cutting it up.

Put the rest on my bill.

- I'm not sure there's any room.

I'll pay the whole lot next time, Jules.

I promise.

You owe more than 1,000

and with the supermarket...

No one will go to the supermarket.

I don't know...

You can pay everything next time.

- Thanks.

Karel, Big Joe's son,

has joined them, Dad.

According to his father

the supermarket is the devil.

Go and wash that pig.

Right.

I couldn't pay Jules, there wasn't

enough money in the till.
