If I like what? Sorry, I...

Excuse me.

I want you.

I want you too. / I...

...You make me crazy. / i

What are you doing?

I have to go out.

You're like my b*tch in heat.

You disgust me! Stay here!

I'll do what I like.

You're not going out!

Are you crazy?

Suzanne's tired.

I'm taking her up to our room.

Shut up.

Samuel! You're being ridiculous.

You stay at the table.

I can' t live without you.

No, don't do that.

To wake up with you.

'You're crazy.

You're crazy, I like that.

Did you get some sleep?

You smell nice.

I love you.

What are you doing here?

Waiting for you.

Why?

You know why!

You're capable of anything.

I am ashamed of you.

I spent the whole night waiting for you.

Look at me.

You're my wife.

You must fulfil your duties.

What do you think you're going to do?

Make sure we've eaten then leave to f*** him?

Is that your plan? What do you want to do?

I'm leaving you.

I forbid you to leave.

You're not leaving! You're my wife.

You can't ruin everything.

I can give you everything.

I want nothing from you.

Come here ..

Stop!

I won't let you leave!

It just happened; I don't know

what's wrong with me.

I don't want to hurt you but I have no choice.

I can't.

Let me go.

How will you earn a living?

From my work.

-Your job?

What work?

I'm a physiotherapist.

Do you think you're going to come here to work every day?

Irritate me with your face and your slutty games?

I'll work in town.

I'd love to see that

You'd never have known how to do anything without me.

You know what that little whim of yours

cost me, your office? 30,000 euros.

Do you think money grows on trees?

How will you manage?

How are you two going to manage?

Without me, you'll have nothing.

You'll never manage.

Say something.

It's perfect.

I did it. She's asleep.

That doesn't surprise me. I love it

when you sing in English.

Want to speak to me in English?

If you speak to me in Catalan.

This is the best day of my life.

Bladder.

It creaks.

Again.

See that. That's enough for today.

Okay? Careful.

I've written out some exercises for you to do at home.

You have to do them though, it's important.

I will.

When are you opening your own practice?

Not yet. For the moment I'm standing in for Mr. Lagache.

Who do I write the cheque to?

To me.

In any case, you look radiant.

Your holiday has done you good.

Okay?

-Yes, I'm starting to get into the swing of things.

Listen, a friend of mine called me, he wants

to buy the lease from me at the end of the month.

You promised you wouldn't sell for at least six months.

Sorry, but it is a godsend.

I can't let the opportunity go to waste.

But it gives you some time to find something else.
