Les espions

THE SPIES:

Hey, Doctor! Can I borrow

your moped for five minutes?

Of course, Louis.

The boss went to Paris with the 2CV.

I've got to get the bread.

- The spark plug is on the blink.

- Never mind, I'll pedal.

- I'll bring it back.

- I'll get it after dinner.

Thanks!

- Well, Doctor?

- We have to pay before the 15th.

- Not a day more.

- We're in a real mess!

If it was just me...

but there are the patients.

By the 15th, Mr Valette

will have finished his rest cure.

Once he's detoxified,

he won't care what happens to you.

- How was he today?

- He was given drugs. He's asleep.

And what will become of Lucie?

If you didn't believe her play-acting,

she'd have spoken a while ago.

If only I had the money.

There are a lot of things to do here.

Money? This place would cost

millions in plumbing and painting.

- There's no wine?!

- You finished it at lunch.

- Couldn't you by some more?

- We owe the store money.

I'm fed up of being insulted

by the shopkeepers!

Here's 100 francs.

Go get some.

No way! I'm finished for today.

You can drink water. It won't harm you.

I'm not hungry.

Have dinner without me, Mrs Andr.

You're not going to the pub

at this time?!

I'm not going to the pub,

I'm going to buy the newspaper.

- Louis.

- One Muscadet!

So, Mr Bargeau, what's the news?

Not nice! A 20% rise on alcohol.

I may as well shut up shop.

You wanted those men in power.

They won by 25 votes.

Your vote was among them.

- Would you vote for those clowns?

- Me? I don't have an opinion.

I don't have an opinion either,

I have a till.

They held a meeting here.

They spoke well and promised lots.

- Once elected, they do the opposite.

- Haven't you understood yet?

The doctor's right.

And he's a smart fellow. He has studied.

- Can I make a phone call?

- Yes, we'll get you a line.

It's paid.

But I voted for the left.

And they followed right-wing policies,

as usual.

It's always pacifists who declare wars.

It's natural.

Natural?! It's dishonest,

a breach of trust. We should sue them!

To get your ballot paper reimbursed?

You may as well draw lots.

This is the reasoning

of a bourgeois anarchist.

No, it's the reasoning of a man

who has no time to lose.

I want to be left alone to work in peace!

Without these ridiculous taxes.

- Good night.

- Good night.

Doctor!

It was a bad telephone line,

but I'm sure of the address.

It's in Argenteuil.

Charge the night fare.

Your clients are richer than you.

As if I'm used to

working for a pittance!

There's no loony here,

except you maybe!

Leave him, Gaston.

It must be a prank.

If I find out who sent me here,

I'll give him what for!

Dr Malic?

I'm the one who called.

- You? But what the...

- Colonel Howard.

US Institute of Psychological War.

Sorry, Colonel.

Sorry for taking you

to such a gloomy place.

I randomly picked a street on a map.

- You were in the bar earlier.

- I couldn't speak to you there.

What I have to tell you is top secret.

We've been watching you

for a long time in the...

How do you say in French?

Why don't they put

those unfortunate creatures to sleep?

I can't stand seeing an animal suffer.

- You're not feeling well, Colonel?

- Excuse me, it's the smell of blood.

It makes me sick.

That may explain why

I'm in the special services.

I would have been a very bad soldier.

The smell of bombarded cities in '44...

I could still smell it 10,000 feet high!

This is awful.

I was listening to you earlier.

You don't seem to have

clear-cut political views.

To have political views at my age

would be childish.

I'm a practical man.
