phone number change in the last 3 months.

And also the reason why they asked for that change.

Sorry to have cut off your ending, sir.

Letellier.

You can't imagine how many cases were cracked

with good old "Toilet Cleaning".

"Minos, "Dante's Inferno"... Insane Asylum is more like it!

First, I hear him breath, a sort of huffing, rasping...

It lasts a while.

-And does he talk?

-Yes, obscenities about my private life.

At first I hung up but he just calls back,

and I can't keep the phone off because

of night emergencies, but he calls at any hour.

I can't sleep... It can't go on like this!

-Hey, Pierre!

-Hi, Helene.

They're policemen, they're here about the calls.

I see, well excellent.

Listen, you have to do something, she's

on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

We'll put a tap on her, that's all we can do for now.

What the hell is that, yours?

No.

Open it.

I liked this car. Got used to it.

-Hun?

-Maybe it's a bomb.

"Dante's Inferno"

Your buddy's starting to get on my nerves.

As a matter of fact this whole case is.

We saw 7 this morning and I

-Don't read when I talk to you.

-Yes.

The lady who's number closely matches that of the taxi central,

The call-girl who changed profession,

The nurse, woken up every night by a maniac.

All of little interest. Will you stop reading?!

Listen:
"Minos is the terrible voice

Of a judging consciousness which sentences vile acts".

-Doesn't this guy worry you?

-He's bat-sh*t crazy!

He's pulling our leg and I don't have time to waste.

So, the next one's name is Germaine Doizon,

and there's no reason we should both get bored,

So we'll flip a coin on it.

Face I go, tail you go.

No need to, I'll lose...

Who is it?

Police.

Police?

Ah yes! Just a minute.

Inspector... Please won't you come in?

Tell me about those calls you're getting?

Say, we must have flipped thousands of coins together.

-You never one.

-The coin is tricked.

-You threw it yesterday.

-So?

You're screwed.

You're the one that's married.

Then sh*t.

come on, lean back, maybe that Germaine Doizon

gal is fascinating!

My husband was a jeweler, he has a gun permit.

Loaded?

Of course!

That scumbag often threatens to come, I'm waiting for him!

I wanted to tell you... Cigarette?

No thanks.

Why "scumbag"?

You're right, I should say that sicko!

Probably just acting on impulse.

But he's making my life so miserable

that I can't find excuses for what he's doing.

Something to drink, inspector?

-A cup of coffee

-No thanks.

You're sure?

Why a "sicko"?

Well... He's obviously not a normal person!

You don't think it's normal to stigmatize

the vice and filth that surround us?

What?

It's easier to call him a madman, isn't it?
