Here comes one now.

Your turn.

You win.

Cough up some dough.

Come on.

We're playing again.

You lose.

Hand over the dough.

Me too.

Stay here

and keep an eye out.

He's calling us.

Let's go!

Hurry up!

Your turn.

You lose.

- I win!

- No, you don't!

Pay up.

- Doesn't count if they turn around!

- You got some nerve!

That's cheating!

Quiet! Let's play.

Bernard, sidetrack her.

Go on, Grard.

Oh, very funny!

You should be ashamed.

What's the world coming to?

Hey, I sidetracked her.

Enough!

This is madness!

That's the last straw!

That's going too far!

If the boy doesn't like it here,

he can just say so.

After all...

Who built this house?

I did.

His schooling, his clothes...

all my doing.

Perhaps someone wants

to take my place?

Don't be shy. Why not?

Go on!

Not hungry?

What's wrong?

Are you sick?

I'm fed up!

It's always "my uncle"!

He's no role model for the boy!

Far from it.

On the contrary.

Charles, don't get so upset.

What my brother needs is...

a goal.

A home.

All this.

Hear that? It's our neighbor.

Come look.

She's single,

and a marvelous housekeeper.

She's tidy, methodical,

and attractive.

When I saw her,

I thought she might...

You know, for my brother.

You'll see.

Look there.

Her house is better kept

than ours.

No, I admit it.

I thought I'd give

a little party on Sunday,

just a few friends.

Nothing formal.

A simple garden party.

That's enough now, boys.

Very funny!

Nice one!

Mr. Hulot!

Go on inside.

You're always underfoot.

Mr. Vincent,

how are you today?

I ironed it.

Want to come along?

It's my Sunday pastime.

Thanks.

Come have a drink.

Just a quick one.

Come have a drink.

Gaston, we're waiting.

Come on.

Gaston!

Bobette!

Georgette, be careful.

I've got it, ma'am.

My husband's on his way.

Charles!

The guests are due,

and nothing's ready.

- What do I owe you, my friend?

- 650.

Then you shall have them.

Keep the change.

Charles, take this tray.

Hurry!

Oh, never mind.

Georgette, come here.

Follow me.

They're here!

No, we don't need anything.

Charles,

handle that, please.

What is it?

Please don't insist.

You heard my wife.

We don't need any rugs.

We have all we need.

What?

It's our neighbor!

How good of you to come!

I hope I'm not early.

Come in.

We're expecting the Pichards,

the Walters,

and my brother.

Grard, come say hello.

Your right hand, dear.

Now I must go and...

Go right ahead.

Did we put on

our best little tie?

Are we a big boy?

Are we a good boy?

I know some nice stories.

And I can make

lovely paper birds.

Charles, your guests.

Ah, Pichard. I'm coming.

Mrs. Arpel...

Mr. Arpel...

Hello.

The flowers.

- How kind!
