My colleagues don't need to know this.

Give me a minute.

I can't! We're shaking out a guy

who's growing cannabis!

Where?

Asnires.

Listen, I'll prove to you

I can be a father.

OK. GUYS. give me a break.

Come on, let's move it.

Hello, Mr Costa.

I'm Chasseigne, an attorney.

The lock was broken.

I took the liberty of coming in.

I've been trying to reach you,

Mr Costa.

Yo no soy Diego Costa.

Yo soy Carlos Jimenez

I jus' do da cleanin'.

I don't have much time

so I'll get to the point.

From 1988 to 1990,

you took part in research

for my client,

the Valle Fertility Clinic.

You donated sperm 693 times

under the name Fonzy

over 14 months

in return for 47,255 francs.

Around 7,500 euros today.

- No.

- Yes.

A recent administrative inquiry revealed

that as the Valle Clinic

was short of donors.

'Fonzy' was supplied

to numerous patients,

making you the father

of several children

aged between 17 and 22.

You have excellent sperm, sir.

Thank you.

Following the inquiry,

the clinic had to issue

a consanguinity warning.

How many kids?

You fathered 533 children.

142 wish to know who you are.

They've launched a class action

to force the clinic

to reveal your name.

They'll lose under French law,

but international conventions

state that they have the right

to knew their origins.

You signed a confidentiality agreement

with the clinic.

My client will protect you

and defend your right

to anonymity.

But the unusual nature of this case

could lead a judge

to favour their request

over your right to anonymity.

Get ready to defend yourself anyway.

If your name is leaked,

your daily life may become

rather turbulent.

That accent is pretty 900d-

Well?

Sit down.

All right...

You signed a confidentiality clause?

With the clinic. At the beginning.

I know I did.

Before or after you beat the meat?

Should an attorney ask that?

I'm hurt you never told me.

For God's sake...

You call pals when you bang a hot chick,

not when you masturbate.

If you want, from now on,

I can call you each time

with all the details.

- No.

- You sound interested.

Don't bother. Now listen...

The group's attorney claims

that aside from confidentiality,

basic rights have been violated.

Right-to-origins law is complex.

Very complex.

Every attorney dreams

of pleading a case like this.

A historic case

that'll set a legal precedent.

My mum said I'd never get anywhere.

All right...

I'll show the old b*tch.

And my ex for splitting with the DA!

What do I do?

As your attorney. I say

stop masturbating in fertility centres.

I'll get a real attorney.

You can't afford a real one.

I need to get the Bar to reinstate me.
