- I get confused.

All the rooms are the same.

Are you sure it's this one?

She's sleeping.

Maybe we should let her sleep.

Yes.

Have you seen Les Halles?

It's the only 19th Century building

that Paris should have preserved!

They're destroying it before our eyes.

Nice girl!

That's how inconsistent our world is.

Cities get changed

because the citizens change.

They've destroyed 4 blocks already.

They're keeping one

and moving it elsewhere.

The unbelievable thing...

...was the cultural revolution

of Les Halles.

And now the depression

against the cultural pollution!

Before, the belly of Paris

was exploding.

Do you remember when we ate

in that street?

Oysters... Are you listening?

Are you a Good Samaritan?

He might have rabies!

Come back to reality.

Take table-tennis, the goods,

acupuncture...

they bore me.

The interesting thing

is the result of the trip to China.

What will take place afterwards.

See the black girl? Nice, huh?

Once, the intellectual stayed still

and history passed before his eyes.

Now he's the one that's moving.

She looks like your Spartacus' lover.

Spartacus' lover is called Liza.

Why are you shouting?

It's too noisy here.

I don't know.

I'm starting to speak like a deaf man.

Do you want to play the noble savage?

Your island's noisy too.

The waves, the seagulls...

Even silence is noisy.

If I grew a moustache,

it'd be wet all the time...

...from wine...

- Right!

It should be thicker.

We've known each other many years.

- Aren't you thirsty?

- No.

- Aren't you drinking?

- No.

Have you got another story in mind?

Maybe.

Are you going to stay or go?

I don't know, I don't want to decide.

Who does?

- You sorted out your problem well.

- Meaning?

That I drink?

Dear sir, what is happiness?

Happiness is knowing Krishna,

the fountain of pleasure,

the ocean of pleasure.

By singing his name,

you'll gain happiness.

- You'll be free from suffering.

- Some cake?

The best things

life gives us are gifts.

Us, the sun, the food

that the land gives us are gifts.

God's love, Krishna,

is the greatest gift.

Here you are.

I made it as you requested.

I hope you like it.

- It's very good.

- Thank you.

Aren't you coming to eat?

I don't like paella.

I've got my carrots.

Are you hungry?

Your napkin.

- Is the paella good?

- Yes, it is.

So, your carrots?

- Enjoy your meal, mum and dad.

- Enjoy your meal, Valeria.

Good girl.

Has invited us on Wednesday.

- Is that alright for you?

- Yes.

Come here!

Valeria, you must eat your carrots!

Sit down, Maria will get it.

Eat up.

Eat the carrots. Both of you.

- Yes?

- I've come to see George.

The family's eating.

Can't you wait?
