Gervaise Page #2

Don't be offended, I'm just

looking out for his best interests!

What's more,

you don't look very healthy.

- Doesn't look healthy, does she?

- Not really.

That's enough! The wedding is tomorrow.

You don't have to come.

Of course we're coming!

You're so touchy!

Want the money

for our two dinners?

Don't bother. Everyone will pay

their share afterwards. Good night.

- Wait!

- Here comes the ceremony...

We're careful because bits of gold might

stick to the soles and get carried off.

Don't get mad! She'll show

her soles like everyone else!

Of course he wasn't as classy as...

But he was so nice!

And roofing is a fine profession.

You're so handsome!

What about me?

It looks great on you!

But that's not all...

That slob Mes Bottes stole

one of my patent-leather shoes!

So we can't get married?

I'll hop down the aisle!

Perfect. Thank you, madam.

Your turn, sir.

Second thoughts?

It's not that...

- That counts, right?

- Naturally!

BLlND

Spare some change,

ladies and gents?

- Blasted holy water!

- You're too late.

That's quick work!

It's like at the dentist's:

over before you can say "ouch!"

Completely painless.

The pain comes later.

DEAF AND DUMB:

- What are you doing here?

- We came to get you.

I said I'd come to dinner.

I don't have time now.

- No protests!

- We need you to have fun!

Have fun without me.

Gervaise, ask him. He won't come.

Careful with my dress!

Ask him to come.

Please come,

it'd make us so happy!

In that case, I'll come.

Come on.

See those two kids?

My brother has a lot on his hands.

- Stop it.

- But it's true.

I've got hands too, I work.

She's my best worker.

She'll have her own shop

within 10 years.

- If only it'd let up.

- It will never let up.

We could take the avenue

up past the cemetery.

You fetch me from the forge

to take me to a cemetery!

That's a good one!

I've got an idea.

How about going to the museum?

- What for?

- To have a look.

Ever been to the Louvre?

You should see it at least once.

Fine.

Etienne, Claude!

What?

- We're leaving.

- Sure, we're not going to rot here!

It'll do everyone good.

This one's really worth a look!

It's all on the table, what a spread!

I hope it'll whet your appetites for later.

Look at that one puke!

And that guy's watering the dandelions!

Hey!

Over here! Some real marvels!

Now that's something!

Look at the bride!

She's blushing!

My word, getting married

made her a virgin!

This isn't for kids! Come on,

there's some battles over here.

Look over here, it's even better!

With a swan!

Can you believe it?

It was in ancient times, but still...

Like it?

Yes, I prefer that.

It's about something.
