as quickly as possible.

Of course, sir.

Agns, please.

Yes, sir?

No, nothing, thank you.

Later, please.

Very well, sir.

Hello.

Pierre.

How's the new secretary?

Just fine.

Are you asleep?

Where are you going?

- Why, to the office.

- On a Saturday?

It's Saturday?

Of course.

Then tomorrow...

is Sunday?

Pass me your plate, Mama.

No, you have the leg, Papa.

But let Florence have the wing.

Who wants peas?

It's no more costly

than anything else.

What are you thinking of?

You.

You're sweet.

Come in.

Mr. Bourget is here.

Shall I show him in?

Say that again?

Please sit down.

I'll be right with you.

So that's how it stands.

I thought things were fine

with your wife.

Oh, my wife...

For some time now,

I haven't been able to stand her.

Why not?

She looks so much like her mother

that I feel I'm living with her.

It's Mama.

Poor guy.

Look, I don't want

to preach to you,

but if I were in your shoes,

I'd tell her the truth.

I have something

very important to tell you.

What's that?

I love another woman.

Who?

What's her name again, your...?

Agns.

Your new secretary?

She's charming...

and so young.

Honey, I love you so much.

The only thing that matters to me

is your happiness.

My poor fellow,

she would never react like that.

- She wouldn't?

- Waiter!

I'm sure of it.

I know her well.

Okay, let's say she wouldn't.

Then in that case -

The same.

In that case, what?

Then I'd take

a totally different tack.

Look, Florence,

this can't go on.

- What can't go on?

- Everything.

Everything what?

You and me.

Is there another woman?

In that case,

I wouldn't even discuss it.

Where are you going?

To buy matches.

Any other brilliant ideas?

Are you crazy?

Okay, okay.

But if I were you, I'd divorce.

I'd divorce.

I would tell her...

What would you tell her?

I'd tell her...

We were married under

a communal estate settlement.

You want half the property?

Here!

You want half of everything?

Here!

I'm all for it.

Half? Here it is.

Here you go!

Half!

And here's the other half.

And take that! And that!

Half of everything? There!

With me, it's quite simple.

Want half of everything?

Here!

- What's got into you?

- Fine with me!

Madame, look.

Half of everything?

There you go!

You want half of everything?

Are you crazy?

You don't want me

to leave Florence for Agns!

You know me.

Anyway, with Agns

there wouldn't be a problem.

Jacques, your wife!

Oh, honey!

How are you?

Hello, honey. How are you?

- Fine.

- Finished shopping?

Yes.

I went to the bank. Here.

What will you have?

- What would you like?

- Champagne.

- What was I saying?

- You were telling me -
