The Black Box Page #2

Synopsis: Images flash through Arthur's brain, voices buzz in his mind, uttering disjointed words and sentences. Arthur Seligman seems to have had an accident but did he run over a little boy or not? And what was he doing near Cherbourg while he lives in Paris? When he regains consciousness (but does he really?) Isabelle Kruger, a nurse, tells him that he had lapsed into a coma after his accident and that she wrote down all of what he said while he was delirious. She gives him the notebook and Arthur starts investigating...HIMSELF!

With you. Yvan was with you.

I remember.

Delays...sure, but delays

that can be explained Mr. Amory.

This company is completely

devoted to you sir.

Yes, yes, no, I understand

your disappointment.

You're absolutely right. I live

for your satisfaction, Mr. Amory.

Listen, not only we'll waive our fees,

but I may have a nice surprise...

But of course Mr. Amory!

And how is your wife?

Very well, good day Mr. Amory!

Seligman. Goddamn it. 2 weeks

trying to reach you! Playing dead?

Two lost contracts: two clients

who won't return! Any explanations?

I had a car accident Mr. Colbert.

Accident? What accident?

Do I look like an idiot?

Do you have a doctor's certificate?

Work leave orders, even.

I wanted to ask,

did you send me to Cherbourg?

No, why?

Didn't think so. I have small memory

problems since the accident.

Something else:
Do we have

Sylvain Ganem for a client?

Ganem? No. Meanwhile,

you're putting me in a bind.

I won't pay you to do nothing.

See about that with accounting.

Monday if you're not back,

you're out of this company. Clear?

Very clear...Mr. Colbert!

More, I want some more.

All gone. Box is empty.

- Open another box.

- There are no more boxes.

Where does spaghetti come from?

Well, from spaghetti fields.

Fields? That's not true.

Sure it is! Spaghetti grows

in spaghetti fields. Doesn't it?

That's right! Men with big knives

harvest the spaghetti...

there's also macaroni, shells,

all the shapes. Didn't you know?

When I grow up, I'll be a spaghetti

harvester. That's a good job.

That's what I want to be.

That's a good job.

Fynoil buys out ACGroup.

Hello, you've reached Yvan...

Nothing. Haven't seen

your brother in 10 days.

Mind you, I don't watch for him.

He gets his mail, comes upstairs,

no hello or good evening, nothing.

Maybe he took a trip.

He would have told me,

or left a message.

Eww, well he didn't say anything.

No...no...

That's all we have for

recent unidentified bodies.

Which doesn't mean he's still alive.

Nor that something happened.

What can you do to find him?

Usual procedure. If he's not in

the system it could take a while.

- Did you get along with him?

- Yes, why?

Often killers are first to

signal a victim's disappearance.

I met a man in Montral.

I think I'm in love.

No, not think, I'm sure.

He's older than you, lives between

Paris-Montral. I think he loves me.

There.

I'm telling you because

I'm leaving you Arthur.

I know you'll be angry

at me, you'll suffer.

No.

No?

No, I'm okay.

I came to tell you the same thing.

You met someone?

I had met myself...

I couldn't say that.

She wouldn't have understood.

Texas doesn't exist...

Sylvain Ganem...
