She was estranged

after her uncle rejected a loan request.

No, I was three when I last visited him.

Do you really think I'd remember?

I swear to God that Shut up!

We will keep the statue for two weeks.

If no one claims it,

you can have it back.

If they bother you again,

let us know.

Now, you are free to go.

Thank you.

But that's not true! Shut up!

I swear they stole the heads!

You've other things to worry about!

How did it go?

Everything went as expected.

I still want to thank

this honest and beautiful citizen of France.

You're welcome. All I did was tell the truth.

My name is Catherine.

You seem interested in those bronze heads.

I have something at my house

you might be interested in.

Well, think about it.

Drive on, Bruno.

Chateau Sichel.

We've always wanted to visit this chateau.

Welcome! I'm sorry.

There are some routine security measures here.

The bank has taken possession of everything.

Nothing of value is permitted to be taken out.

It's okay.

Beautiful castle!

Please, follow me.

Follow them.

Our family went bankrupt

in the financial crisis.

Still nice to be able to live here.

Thank you.

Your ancestors may have been

the last people to see these beautiful creatures.

Yes, I know what you mean.

Thing are only treasured

after they've disappeared.

Is that real?

It's been here since I was born.

This is stolen property, right?

What did she say?

She said beautiful staircase.

Thank you.

Let's go.

This is my great-great-grandfather,

her grandfather.

Years ago he came back from overseas.

He always wanted to set sail again

to find his second command

but never had the funds to do so.

Later his son, my grandma's father,

put together an expedition

and went to sea in search of the Indestructible.

But he never returned.

He just disappeared mysteriously.

I heard you have the animals' heads.

Maybe you would have clues

about my great-grandfather?

I don't give a damn!

Bronze heads, scepter, diamond

they can never be made public.

The one I really want back is the painting.

The value of what they've stolen

is over a billion dollars!

If you'd installed an infrared security system,

things would have been

So it's my fault, then?

No, no, no...

I'll make you a promise.

If you don't recover that painting,

I will strangle you myself!

It's a rocking horse I had when I was a child.

My great-great grandfather painted this

after his return.

It's the view he saw after his ship was damaged.

Why don't you have a look around?

I'll go get some tea.

Thank you.

Over there.

Sorry, we need to talk in private.

How can we steal the Rooster-head?
