Play the violin.

And Teresa?

Finished, like the violin.

Make new friends.

I had a pal,

but he got rubbed out.

So everything's fine.

Really want to leave?

It's possible?

Maybe. Favigny

at the shoe store...

was looking for someone.

- Me, selling shoes...

- Let me finish.

It's no doubt too late.

It was something

about a hairdresser.

Did you hear him, Jeanne?

I listened hard.

I didn't pretend.

- It's serious?

- I think so.

Ask for Mr. Valentine

at the barber's in the Arcade...

and say Favigny sent you.

Do you know Favigny?

Maybe.

But barbering or shoes...

Just go and find out.

Watch where you're going.

Sorry. Did I hurt you?

No, but... Roland!

Pardon me?

Don't you recognize me?

Cecile!

This is crazy. Of all things.

I hurt you?

I thought of you

only this morning!

And I mentioned you, too.

I met a young girl

who looks like you used to.

I'm surprised.

I'm trembling.

It's like a chill.

I'm so happy.

I got lipstick on you.

It's been ten years?

More. Since after the war.

I didn't recognize you.

You haven't changed.

- Really?

- Barely.

Going which way?

That way.

Yvon, come here.

My son. Say hello.

- Married?

- Sort of.

I'm glad to see you!

Feel my heart. It's pounding so.

- And you?

- What?

- Married?

- No.

It's odd we never met.

I left town years ago.

I travel a lot.

I'm a dancer.

I work all over.

I just got here three days ago.

What time is it?

I must go. Yvon!

Look at my hands.

Can't you keep still?

I didn't have time to dress.

I've got a run.

I must see you again.

Anytime.

I'm in a hurry.

I must take him to school.

Are you free tonight?

Yes.

At 8:
00.

In front of the theater.

OK.

I'm so thrilled!

I put lipstick on you?

Mr. Valentine.

He's not in.

Mr. Favigny sent me.

I'll go see.

It's personal.

Mr. Favigny sent me

about the job.

What job?

He said you were

looking for someone.

True.

What kind of job?

Don't ask questions.

Are you free?

If not, I wouldn't be here.

Follow me.

It involves a trip.

Or several trips...

if you fill the bill.

You'd have to leave Nantes

in two days... on Saturday.

OK.

You'll sail on the Duchess Ann.

The captain will be informed.

Destination... Amsterdam.

You'll then fly

to Port Elizabeth.

Let me finish.

There a friend will drive you

to Johannesburg.

You'll give him this briefcase.

He'll give you

a similar one in return.

You'll bring it back here.

That's all?

That's all.

It's a fairy tale.

You'll accept?

Give me 24 hours.

That's too long.

I suggest you say "yes."

And if I tell the police?

It'd be a mistake.

I accept.

Here's your passport

as Jean Maillard.

Put your photo in it.

The Duchess Ann's captain
