Very well. Thank you.

Thank you.

See you next time.

Have a nice week.

Have a great day.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Good night.

Good night.

Are you ready?

I'm coming.

Here.

Come here.

He's not coming.

Hello, Nicholas.

Hello, Hannah.

How are you?

Fine, and you?

Fine.

Hannah?

I'm sorting out my wardrobe.

Hello.

Hello.

I thought you might like these.

Thank you.

I think they would fit you nicely.

I'll put them in the living room.

There's gradually less

and less space.

We come closer, one to the other...

We move in the middle...

we try.

Really...

in the middle. Sometimes

we need to let our hands slip...

and see...

Yes...

There's something...

And later...

It's difficult.

All right... and then we open up.

"You are ill."

"You are feverish."

"I almost thought

you'd gone out of your mind."

"I have never felt such clarity

and certainty as tonight."

"This clarity and certainty let you

abandon your husband and children?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Then there is only one explanation."

"What's that?"

"You no longer love me."

"Yes, that's it."

"Can you really say that?"

"Oh, it hurts so much."

"You've always been so kind to me."

"But I can't help it."

"I don't love you any more."

"Are you sure about this as well?"

"Yes, totally."

"Which is why I don't want to stay

here any longer."

"And can you explain

what I did to lose your love?"

"Of course. It was this evening."

"When the great miracle

did not take place."

"That's when I saw you weren't

the man I had imagined."

"Explain yourself a bit more,

I don't understand."

"I waited patiently

for eight years."

"My God, I knew miracles

don't happen every day."

"But when this blow crashed down

on me..."

"That's when

I felt absolutely certain..."

"Now the miracle will come."

"You don't think."

"You don't speak."

"You don't think."

"You don't speak."

"You don't think, you don't speak

like the man..."

"like the man..."

"Very likely."

"But you don't think,

you don't speak"

"like the man

I could share my life with."

"You don't think."

"You don't think, you don't speak"

"like the man

I could share my life with."

"I'm still..."

"I'm still your little lark."

"I'm still your little lark."

"Your doll."

Madame...

I'm Simon's mother.

I need to talk to you,

mother to mother.

Open up.

Open the door.

Aren't you ashamed?

My little boy wets the bed every night.

Open this door.

And so?

Excuse me?

Hello?

Is anybody here?

There's a leak.

What's happening?

There's orange water everywhere.

Open the door.

Open the door.

My God.

What's happening?

Next.

The bag.

This way.

What are you laughing at?

I'm not laughing.

What happened to your eye?

It's nothing.

It's already a lot better...

Have you seen a doctor?

I'm going to ask for one

if it doesn't get better.

How are you?

I don't think I can survive here.

They're going to transfer me.

They all think I did it.

Hello?

"In any case, I free you

of all your obligations to me."

"You mustn't feel yourself bound

to anything in any way,"

"any more than I do."

"There must be perfect freedom

for both of us."

"Here's your ring back."

"Give me yours."

"Is this necessary?"

"Yes, it is."

"Here."

"Good."

"It's all over now."

"I have to be alone

to see clearly inside myself."

"And everything that surrounds me."

"And this is why..."

Excuse me.

Hello?

Yes...

Don't say that...

Are you eating?

Did you get the package?

You'll get it soon.

I followed all their instructions.

You should get it all.

Hello?

Are you still there?

Hello?

Will we start again?

Yes.

"Here are the keys."

"As for the house,

the maids..."

"The maids know everything better than me."

"But you're my wife"

"and always will be."

"I've heard that when a wife deserts

her husband's house"

"as I'm doing now..."

"he is legally freed

from all obligations towards her."

"In any case, I free you of all

your obligations towards me."

"You mustn't feel yourself bound

in any way,"

"and in any case

no more than I do."

"There must be perfect freedom

for both of us."

"Here's your ring back."

"Give me yours."

"Is this necessary?"

"Yes, it is."

"Here."

"Good."

"It's all over now."

Nicolas?

I need your help.

I'm coming.

Take this.

And this one...

I'll take this end.

Now we'll pull them

and put them together.

Get it from below.

Pull.

Pull towards you.

There. Good!

Thank you.

Thank you, Hannah.

Very good.

Who's next?

Roxanne, are you ready?

Action!

Cut!

Michel?

I don't know

if you're getting my messages.

I call every week.

You never know with these phones...

I was thinking of coming

to visit you

to see how you all are.

It's been a long time.

I imagine you're preparing

a little party.

And I was thinking of making

Charlie's favourite cake.

The one I used to make for you.

I'll be happy to see you.

I'm still your mother.

We're still a family...

I love you.

Look.

Look what I've brought you.

Look, come here.

Come here, please.

Come here, it's delicious.

Taste how good it is.

It's so good!

Come on, eat.

Come here.

It's so good! So good!

Come on, eat.

Come on, eat.

Come on... eat... eat!

Come on, eat! Eat!

Come here.

"Dear Charlie,

Happy birthday!"

"Today is a special day and

we're thinking about you a lot."

"With lots of love,

Grampa and Gramma."

So it's me?

It's me who's mad?

You don't love me.
