l'm an engineer.

l've seen your dad's results.

Sylvio had his faults,

but his paranoia wasn't unfounded.

Find his work.

Show it to journalists,

the universities,

but not politicians.

Save his legacy.

National Power's

Hybrid Car Project Stalled

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard

Flight 931 to Brussels.

We will be in the air 6 hrs. 15 min.

at an altitude of 10,000 metres.

Or maybe 75,000.

Anyway, no one gives a damn.

Passenger Louis Legros is requested

to save his dad's legacy.

Sir, please sit down.

We're about to take off.

l have to get off.

Are you sick?

Yes, l must get off.

Fine, but sit down. l'll come back.

l want to leave!

We're taking off. You must.. .

You can't. l'm getting off.

Look.. .

-lt's important!

Please call someone. Stop the plane.

Please, sir.

-And l'm not crazy.

Fine, but you must sit down.

Otherwise, l can't help you.

lt won't be long. Stay calm.

l'm thirsty.

Don't move!

l'm not thirsty!

Where did you get malaria?

ln Africa.

Where in Africa?

Congo.

Diamonds, a lost father,

a revolutionary invention.. .

lt's all so unlikely,

l have to believe it.

You scared me!

Let's see.

Sneaking up behind me.

Nothing. Got a fever?

lsn't that over?

lt's never over, Mum.

lt's ok, l'm used to it.

Does your arm hurt?

-No.

l should've told you to go.

Come on, cut it out.

You'd look for Dad's papers?

Couldn't it wait?

You don't get it,

there's stuff going down.

ln 24 hours l've met a Minister,

a lady out of James Bond,

and been tackled at the airport,

and NP has attacked Dad

in the papers.

l'm going over.

Now?

lt's about time.

We hadn't spoken in years.

Give me the bus keys.

No way! The batteries still work.

He ordered it from the States.

Nifty, isn't it?

lt's amazing.

One room that doesn't reek

of motors.

Come on, let's go.

We just got here!

What are you looking for?

l don't know:
plans, sketches.. .

You won't find anything.

Really? Why do you say that?

Know what l think?

The plans never existed.

Sylvio was fired

for incompetence. So?

Those plans were his life.

His colleague said

he was just about to.. .

''Just about. lt's coming.

On the verge.. ."

Same old story.

His colleague fell for it.

She's an engineer.

She saw Dad's plans.

He designed

an electric wheelbarrow.

lmpressive to an 8-year-old.

But get real!

You do what you have to.

Stay and help!

-l'll pick you up later.

Don't bother!

Ladies and gents,

my father was a visionary,

recipient of the Grand Vase

of St Ccile.

Sorry.

Legros Electric Cars.

To invest, leave a message.

Mr Legros? lt's Father Gagnon.

Mr Legros?

Mr Legros? lt's Ducros Lumber.

Could you pick up your car?

This isn't a long-term parking lot.
