it's unsanitary, the walls

are crumbling, it leaks...

Maybe you don't like me?

You act as if you want me to leave...

On the contrary!

That's not what I meant.

It does that sometimes.

Did I hurt you?

I'm alright.

We really clashed.

I'm so clumsy.

Don't budge.

I'm blind as a mole. Everything's foggy.

I could get lost in it.

Since I break things, I always buy two.

You play the cello?

I play music, too.

Wait, I'll be back.

Sh*t, not again!

What're you doing?

- I wanted to take a bath.

- Again?

You sharpen your knives enough!

A musical saw!

It has a nice sound.

Sit down.

I used to play it with the doctor.

Livingstone... "Dr Livingstone"!

He was my partner.

It'll rust now that he's gone.

Where did he go?

He disappeared after a show...

We only found his carcass.

They ate him.

Can you imagine, they ate him!

That night, I lost everything.

So, the 1st ad I read...

And here I am.

I must tell you something.

Hush... Listen!

Do you know that tune?

It was his favourite.

Notice how the nights are clear?

We're entering the Virgo age. That's my sign.

- No joke?

- I swear it:
Virgo, ascendant Leo.

Cut it out, not everyone's Gorilla,

ascendant Bulldozer!

I'm in luck, there's lots in store:

"Get ready, the wind's shifting."

You'd like to pack up and leave, right?

You wouldn't get far. It's worse

out there, they draw straws.

It'd be a shame to see those hams go.

And those little sucklings...

Don't joke about that, I hate it.

You're better off here.

At least, we got a system.

My ass! Those helpers you

ice are drawing straws, too.

That's fate!

And you can't help fate.

the wind's shifting.

Everyone's gonna get it.

Mr Louison, I'm not supposed to tell you, but...

what happened to your friend happens here.

It takes place at night in the stairs.

That's why no one goes out.

And my father...

Soporific herbs

Hi!

- I'm here for the springs.

- Come in.

This is an antique! It has seen a lot of use.

What's the problem?

It squeaks. That's a pain.

Could you bounce just a little?

I can't see anything.

It does it most

when there're 2 of us.

Let's try it.

As I thought, the 2nd spring to the right.

Come, Aurore...

We are here...

to help you...

Come...

Freed from life...

Come with us, Aurore...

Soothed...

Come at 11 sharp. Ring hard!

Rotten world...

That should do it.

- Here...

- Thanks.

What are Troglodists?

Outlaws. It's the big story, but no one sees them.

Tales to keep people busy.

A typical Capricorn statement!

You lose, I'm Aquarius.

The sign of the future!

The future...

It's soon history around here.

It's so easy to miss a step.

Don't worry about me.

You little brats, give that back!
