No. Thanks.

Dessert?

I've got printing plates to fix.

No holidays for me.

My dear Gaston,

I bet when Gutenberg said

he wanted to invent the printing press,

his father was also dismissive.

Now he'd change his tune.

Emile's not Gutenberg.

No, he's a Robilleau.

And we Robilleaus are

self-made men.

Go through here for the tour.

This chateau may well fall down.

- But...

- You're the owner?

- I have that honour.

- How can you say that, you bastard.

- Who is this maniac ?

- I'm Captain Cabriac.

- Don't know any Cabriac.

- How about my wife?

- Your wife?

- Suzette.

- Lovely name.

- I'm just back from the colonies.

- That explains it...the sun....

- You weren't expecting me?

- No.

And what do I find

after being away for 2 years?

This letter...

Where is it ?

The letter where my wife

confessed everything.

You can't deny it.

You sure you got

the right place?

"I've decided to make a new life.

"I love Robert Patrick.

'Bye, cuckold."

No! Me a cuckold ?

You think it's funny?

You've got a hide, the lot of you.

Here's my card.

I'm not Robert Patrick.

- You're not Robert Patrick?

- No.

- I'm Robilleau.

- What a shame.

- I would've killed you with pleasure.

- How nice !

Why did she leave me ?

She's such a sweetie, and such a good cook.

- I've got her right under my skin.

- Right under ?

I shouldn't have trusted a schoolteacher.

We really don't care.

But I'll find her,

and they'll pay

"Cuckold"!.

Do we what became of

Robert Patrick...

I like the monastery story.

It's the most exciting version.

Exciting? His sort would want to

to go on a voyage

with his woman.

That'd be safest.

That woman followed him for love.

Leaving behind

an unhappy wretch.

All women are there for the taking,

if you can't take care of them.

And where are the morals in that?

Life is a jungle.

Man is the hunter, woman the game.

The game goes to the most skilful hunter.

Figure for yourself.

Oh, Marguerite... Marguerite!.

There you are. You work for 30 years

and you find your daughter's

turned into a savage...

-Marguerite.

Listen, Marguerite.

Marguerite!. Marguerite!.

Are you going to let me in?

Open the door.

Let me in darling.

Listen, Marguerite.

Listen to me,

I mightn't have always

been very pleasant.

But you're my life, my darling.

Believe me, happiness

is a state of calm, safety,

maybe even boredom.

That's quite possible.

But it's happiness all the same.

Don't throw it away,

don't look down on it.

It's too hard to come by,

too easily broken.

Through here,

ladies and gentlemen.

Through here, ladies and gentlemen.

The tour is finished.

Don't forget the Robilleau DeLuxe

is the finest vacuum cleaner
