Passport, phone, wallet

That bag one should never lose

Or someone stole it

I went back. I looked everywhere.

No one speaks English

Bloody Asterix in Corsica

Sorry.

I mean the Asterix comics

That's the reason actually.

"Asterix in Corsica,"

my favorite comic

I always thought I'd come here

one day

Phone first. 0k?

Hi.

- Hi.

They'll call back, ok?

Absolutely

Five minutes

I'll just...

- Yeah, sure.

By the way, thank you.

- Please, you don't have to do that.

No, I have to do it.

I was in a state

If you weren't there...

By the way, my name is..

- Stop.

One sec.

Pause.

You'll tell me your name,

I'll tell you mine

We become friends

Where we live, what we do Say:

"Wow! Small world!"

Mutual friends

I'll tell you old jokes.

Try impressing you

I'll behave decently

Behave decently? In Corsica?

Tough finding a place...

...where no one knows me.

I can be anyone, do anything

I'm Don!

The police from 12 countries

are looking for me and I wait here...

...for Teja's gold

And you?

Me?

Yes, you

You must have a name

lam Mona

Mona Darling

I work with Teja

Should I call you Mona or...

...Dar

ing?

Mr Don

I like it

But how can I be sure that

you have the gold?

How can I be sure that you're Don?

Proof is the law's thing

And Don doesn't play by those rules

May I ask why Teja isn't here?

Mr Teja has a dentist

appointment, sir

He's having root canal

treatment miles away

Interpol!

I'll handle it

Hello...

Yeah... dad...

Madam...hey...

Again

- Antoniya

Feeding the hungry was a

good move. But drinks too?

I don't know

Why? What do you plan to do?

I also don't know.

What is this place?

Where are we?

Shall I tell you?

At once upon a time...

A story begins

Will the story be good?

Always the same

Boy meets girl,

starts hitting on her

Like it's his duty

Tries to impress her

Makes some excuse...

touch, feel, hug, kiss

lam a boy, I'll play my role

I'll plot, create situations

To hell with Corsica!

Figure out how to touch you,

get physical

Oh no! Then I'll have to play

Miss Touch-me-not

Keep a safe distance from you

Then I'll have to behave

No.

Hold myself back

No, no

Hold back? In Corsica?

What to do?

Shame is a woman's wealth

I won't...

What?

...be a rascal

Move.

Don't hold back. I'll be good

You'll see

I give you my word

Understand?

"As long as I breath, honey"

My passport arrives in 7 days

I'm here for a week

I'll soon have cash

I'll be broke by then

No introductions

We could be anyone,

I don't know
