Monsieur Gangster Page #4

- A serious talk.

- Yes, uncle.

Mind if I say uncle?

Did you kill a lot of them?

Crocodiles.

There are rivers all over the place

down there.

Well, I'll take care of your tea!

Since you believe in firmness,

I'll give you a chance to try it.

On what?

On money...

money that isn't coming in.

The Volfonis haven't paid rent

on the barge for two months.

The Tomato and Theo are late, too.

ls this a revolt?

No, sire, a revolution.

No one's paying .

Are these guys

grabbing my niece's dough?

Looks like it.

Did Louis know?

I didn't tell him .

He was too trigger-happy.

If it had made the papers

and the child had seen it...

you can imagine, can't you?

What I see is that you'd rather

I did the shooting.

A legal guardian isn't the same.

His head chops off

just as easy.

Who's asking you to do it?

We have Pascal.

Shall I call him?

If I wasn't due at the Avignon fair,

I'd say no.

But I'm short of time.

And it's not good

to leave bills uncollected,

or to let the hired help dream.

Dream? Do you dream in color?

Antoine Delafoy,

Patricia's most faithful friend.

I admire you, sir.

Patricia always praises you.

You are the gaucho...

the legendary uncle.

She never praises you.

She hasn't had time.

But I can praise myself.

That can be amusing,

for I always take credit...

for the exploits of famous men.

ls he always like this?

No, it's just a front.

He needs to talk

but he's really very shy.

I know that he will charm you.

- Oh , he charms too?

- I don't charm, I enchant.

About your dreams in color...

Borowsky says

they're caused by eating fish.

I prefer Freud.

He's more witty.

- What do you think?

- Nothing.

I don't dream in color

or black and white!

I don't dream !

I haven't the time!

Adding water would be a crime.

It's ten years old.

Uncle is so overworked.

Coming with us tomorrow night?

Where?

What a sense of humor!

Frankie Mills

is making his debut.

Beethoven and Chopin

are silly, I know.

But Mills makes them

sound wild, ferocious!

Everyone's going.

Yes, I know people

take their uncle to the circus.

But you'll have to go without me.

Tomorrow evening

I'll be in Montauban.

And Patricia will be studying.

Right, Patricia?

You're right.

We must be gentle with him.

What's going on now?

Our friend will be delighted

to explain.

The Volfonis are holding

a meeting on the barge.

A committee meeting,

if you see what I mean.

Behind your back!

Where did you get this?

I can't say.

I promised I wouldn't.

It's not nice.

There are two possible solutions.

We can look into it

or we can ignore it.

Of course, it wouldn't hurt

to take a look.

We're going!

Can I squeeze into your car?
