"Mystery in Slack Bay." " I've had enough!" "I'm going home." " Come on, Ma Loute." "You're always grumbling." "In any case, we'd best get back." "The tide's rising." "Come on, kids, home!" "Dad!" "Help me!" "What happiness!" "That happiness to be back on this coast..." "And to see this landscape." "Look, the mussel fishermen." "How quaint!" "Come on, Ma Loute." "Come on." "Isn't it, Billie?" "Andre?" "That idea you had was extraordinary," "To build our Typhonium here." "This cart stinks." " Hey, Ma Loute spat at me!" " Stop it now!" "Ma Loute, Clo-Clo!" "Stop it." "Let's move." " He went missing here." " Here?" " Near here." " Here, here?" " Near here." " Near there?" " People don't disappear like that." " We found his glasses." " On holiday?" " Exactly." "A boss from Lille." "Let's go down there and take a look." "I can't, I'll fall." "It's easier to roll down." "Malfoy!" "Malfoy!" "Malfoy!" " You could have been hurt." " It's nothing." " It was here then?" " Affirmative, Boss." " The flag marks the glasses." " I'll go and take a look." "Las week it was another holiday maker." "A lady from Roubaix." "Lille, Roubaix..." "It looks like a serial case." "One, two, three, four..." "starting to hot up, eh?" " I'm tired of carrying the bag." " Stop grumbling." " Why does Louis get to push the cart?" " Because he's smaller." " Will you stop?" " Stop it, come on!" "Here, we'll begin to clean the mussels." "Come here, come on!" " Ma Loute!" " Move!" "On with it!" "Clean the mussels." "Your brother has gone." "You can go too!" "Come here." "Hey, enough!" "Children!" "Children!" "Going beyond there is dangerous!" "There is the mud, in the bay." "There is the mud, in the bay." "Oh, the wisteria." "Nadege... get the dust." " No, you have to eliminate it." " Remove it, like?" "Hopeless..." "You'd better go to the kitchen to clean the potatoes." "Go!" "Off!" "Disappear, Nadege!" "Wisteria!" "Isabelle!" "Isabelle!" "Wisteria, wisteria!" " You'll break your neck, Isabelle!" "." " No, Andre, don't worry." "The wisteria?" "Yes, it's immense." "It has grown at least two metres." "It's been a year since we last saw it." "Everything grows, Andre." "Can you check in the kitchen if that good-for-nothing has found the potatoes?" "Potatoes... yes, of course." "Darling?" "Darling?" "If the potatoes have been found, what should I say?" " Tell her to peel them, Andre!" " Ah, to peel them." "Oh, I was wrong, it's not that way." " Miss, you've found the potatoes?" " I'm washing them." " I beg your pardon?" " Cleaning them up, sir!" " Ma'am asked to peel them." " I'm not peeling." "I'm washing them." "OK." "But what's the point if you will peel them anyway?" "You have to wash, then you have to dry them, and then you can peel." "And what do you do next?" "You cut them into pommes frites." "And then cook them in oil." "And what do you do next?" "You eat them." "OK, sir?" "I'm going to say that to Ma'am." "Wash, dry, peel..." "Peel, wash..." " Be careful not to fall!" " Hey, Eternal!" " Eternal?" " Yes." "Saviour of the sailors." " Not our saviour?" " No, no, no." "He saved so many people from death at sea." " Nearly a hundred people." " 100 people?" "Now he's the ferryman, with his son Ma Loute." " It's twenty cents for the crossing." " It's not expensive." " Ouch!" " What is it, can't stay on your feet?" " Can you get me across?" " Yes." "Twenty cents." "Here you are." "Help!" "Somebody help us!" "Help, we can't swim." "Help!" "Help!" " Somebody help us!" " What's all this carry-on?" "We are stuck in the mud." "There's water everywhere." "I don't understand, usually there's no problem." " We live there." " And you, where do you live?" "In a mussel shell?" "Has cat taken your tongue?" "You're from the village, right?" "I know you." "You were gathering mussels this morning." "I'm Billie." "My cousins, Blanche and Gaby." "What's your name?" "Ma Loute!" "Ma Loute!" "Your name's Ma Loute?" " Ma Loute..." " His name is Ma Loute." "I'm coming." "As you can see, Isabelle's in the midst of the chores." "Isabelle!" "Isabelle, your brother is here." "Christian!" "What a wonderful surprise!" "The house is like an icebox." "No, Nadege, that's not it." "I have explained how to fold them:" "one, two, three." "The..." "The kids are here?" "Yes, they're taking a shower." "We've just arrived and they're already covered in mud from the bay." "I understand." " Calais is as always?" " Yes, I really like it." " You don't regret that you moved here?" " No, not at all." " How's my Uncle?" " Dad's fine, really." "Your sister is busy, as we just arrived." "I don't think you'll see her today." "Oh, it doesn't matter." "I was just passing for a quick chat." " I'll come back." "I don't live far." " Soon, Christian." "It was really nice to meet you." "We know what to do, Andre, but we do not do that." "We know what to do, but we do not do." "Here they are." "Uncle!" "Uncle!" "Uncle!" " Good morning, Uncle!" " Ah, Billie is a boy again." "You messed up your dress, my kitten?" "Uncle, uncle, uncle..." "Just go now, children!" "Go away, children!" "Begone!" "They are devils, Christian." "They do all this for fun." "You know?" "Come." "I'll walk you back." "But won't you stay?" "Come for Saturday lunch, then." "Or Sunday, after the procession." "Nadege, what are you doing down there?" "In any case, it is bizarre that it's not locals who are disappearing." " These disappearances are often a mystery." " What?" "Boss!" "I found a boat stranded on the beach." "What?" "A shipwreck?" "Come on, quick." "I have to stop, Malfoy, or I'll vomit." " What a heartbreaking sight..." " If a ship has run aground, it happens." " But, it's so impressive..." " A sailor knows his fate." " Take it from the son of a sailor." " You rascal!" "No-one on board, boss." "All gone." " Malfoy, report this to Calais." " Affirmative, boss." "There are already two missing persons, but I don't seek them here." "We work on earth, not at the bottom of the sea." " Are you from here, Lady?" " But no, no." " But yes, but yes." " But no, but no." " So someone has disappeared?" " No, no." " But I heard him..." " No." "Go, go!" " Off!" "Go, go!" " Help!" " I'm being assaulted!" " There we go!" "You saw it, Malfoy?" "This mad, hysterical woman." " What's this?" " Isn't it the umbrella of the woman?" "I don't know." "I'll see." "Malfoy, help me up." " A lady must have lost an umbrella." " I recognise it." " The woman who was here ten minutes ago." " I don't know." " It may have blown away." " But there is no wind." "An umbrella isn't lost like a glove." " A mystery." " Yeah." "You can go, thank you." "Foot!" " If you want, there is still some foot." " No.." " Clo-Clo?" " No." "Little Louis?" "Ma Loute?" "There is more." " Are you sure?" " Yup." " The thumb?" "A little shin?" " No." " A little brain?" " No." " No?" "Then finish eating and go play." " No." "What are you doing here?" "Are you done with your rich people?" "And you're done looking at me pee?" "You want me to eat you, perhaps?" "Divine!" "Truly divine." "Divine, divine." "Oh, a bird!" " Hello." " Two delicious omelettes, please." "Ah, it really is extraordinary." "Look at that." "That sailor is admirable." "A sort of incarnation of absolute beauty." "Ah, the omelettes!" "Thank you..." "Oh, it is sublime." "Ah, beautiful." "And sublime." "Look at the sailor: the simplicity..." "It looks like a painting." "See: proof that a sailor can embody the quintessence of beauty." "Perfection." " Yes, like a painting." " Mum, dad!" "Hey, you can't play here!" "Go away!" "Don't touch the boat!" "That's enough!" "What are you doing, children?" "Can't you see the man is working?" "It's complete madness, this!" " We're very sorry." " We did not know.." " Sorry." " We were playing." "You see, there are people who do not appreciate your games." "These people aren't like us, you know?" "You should not talk that way, Isabelle." "Now go, go and play." "Go into the bay." "The nerve." "The nerve!" " You're... dressed as a boy?" " Well, yes." "Thanks." "Billie, come on?" "Oh, god." "The landscape is just fantastic." "What do you think?" "Naturally you can see it." "That's what people say." "But I don't know if it's true." "Is it?" "Hello!" "Oh, heck!" "Machin, Calais Police." "A fisherman told me that a lady had come here." " Did you take her across?" " We carry so many people each day." " Fat lady with a yellow umbrella?" " There are fat, tiny, medium, tall.." " What's your name?" " Brufort." " Brufort?" "And you, boy?" " Brufort." " Where do you live?" " St Michel." "Ah, OK." " Say, can you walk over here?" " Depends on the tide, we use the boat." "Malfoy, I've had it with water." "Really!" "Careful!" "First warning." "Hey!" "You do not get a second one." " I have to dry my feet." " That's right, Boss." "Evil is caught by cold feet." "That's why we put shoes on." "One heck of a house." "One heck of a viewpoint, too." "No, by God.." "We have to take care of public monuments." "That's the truth." "Meaning the world restoration." "It's..." "It is unheard of, of course!" "This is the first step!" "And the second, Isabelle - well, it should not be restored ever again." "For me this is unacceptable." "And the third, you know what?" "Let them die!" "I am outraged, Isabelle." "Outrageous!" "It's outrageous!" "Sir?" "Police." " Inspector Machin, from Calais." "This is a great place here." "And your home is so different from the others." "What style is it?" "It's a villa in the Egyptian style." "Ptolemaic, inspector." "Made of marble from the quarries of Marquise." " But there is concrete on top." " Yes." "It's covered in plaster." " It is entirely covered with plaster?" " Yes." " Cement, in fact." " Well, concrete, more or less." " A heck of a structure." " Yes, remarkable." " Mister...?" " Andre van Pethegem, of Tourcoing." "Tourcoing?" "Forgive me for the inconvenience." "Have you noticed anything strange in the bay?" " Because you have such a good view here." " A beautiful view... yes, we can see." "We can see... all the small details." "You can see for yourself." "But, tell me, Inspector, what should I have seen?" " The missing people, for example." " Have people gone missing in the bay?" "Yes, two people have disappeared..." "One from Lille, the other from Roubaix." "And another that we do not know." "You didn't see anything yesterday?" "Look, Inspector, I do not spend my days monitoring the bay." " It's a really beautiful view." " Yes, but I don't notice it anymore, OK?" "It's normal" " I've spent so long looking at it, I don't see it anymore." "Rather bizarre." "Living in a place like this and not enjoying the view." "Don't you see the view?" "But my girls!" "My girls have gone down into the bay!" "Where?" "But down there, Inspector, don't you see?" "Along with their cousin!" " You see?" "It's a great vantage point." " Oh, you made me afraid, Inspector..." "Take care." "And let me know if you notice anything." "Goodbye." "Malfoy!" " What do you want?" " What have you got there?" " Two youngsters, that we took this morning." " From where?" " Lille." " It'll be a good meal, if they're young." " This is the Saint Michel area?" " The fishing village." " It's not very busy." " They are at sea." "Hey kids!" "Come here." "What is your name?" "Lost your tongue?" "Do the Bruforts live here?" "There?" "There?" "There?" "Do you know where they live - the Bruforts?" "Boss..." "They live over there." "Over there?" "Hey, boys, in!" "Police, Mrs. Brufort." "I am looking for your husband." " Why?" " I met him this morning." " Hello." " Hello." " Do you live here, then?" " Yes." " Why did your children lie to us?" " My children never lie." " Really?" " Sure." " OK." "Do you know this woman?" " No." "There's no point in bothering us." "Malfoy!" "I could have broken my tailbone." "Do you think it's funny?" "Laugh, laugh..." "Billie!" "Come, Billie!" "Come and embrace your mother, come on." "You're the usual scoundrel!" "My little rascal." "How are my nieces?" "How are these two wonders?" "Come." "And my little brother?" "How is the Typhonium, lovely as ever?" "Hello, Aude." "Isabelle, you look gorgeous!" "Splendid." "My God, how beautiful!" "Andre, my God, how beautiful!" "What a view you have here!" "Billie, have you ever seen anything more..." " I can never get used to the view." " This is why you come every year, Aude?" " Every year." " Tell me, you big meanie?" "Do you think I'm too much, eh?" "So I come too often, you think?" "I come too often?" "Isabelle, say something!" "A heron, look!" "What a sight!" "A heron!" " Your luggage?" " The chauffeur will bring it." "Oh, your house!" "What audacity!" "What architecture!" "Billie, stop it!" "You'll hurt me." "Billie..." "Billie!" "What an insufferable creature." "Please leave him to sulk, girls!" "Let's go." "Can you take me across?" "I'll give you the money tomorrow." "Why are you dressed as a boy?" " You're not a boy?" " No!" "I am a girl, Ma Loute." "I'm disguised." "Come, let's go to sea." "Can you hold the dish, please?" "He's so stubborn." "We will not see him again today." "No, Aude." "Billie is a fine kid." "He knows lunch is at twelve-thirty." "Although, we're on holiday, right?" "Help me with the dish, please." "What do you think of Billie, girls, is Billie a good kid?" "You've lost your grip?" "Maybe you should have killed the animal first." "What do you say?" "Enough!" "No laughing at the food." "I'm going to cut the leg in the kitchen." "Come with me, Nadege." "Take Sir's knife!" "My poor Andre..." "My poor Andre!" "Why didn't this leg get cut in the kitchen before it came out?" "You're so clumsy." "Why humiliate yourself?" "Why?" " It's no big deal, Aude, believe me." " You won't become like Dad, right?" "What are you doing, here?" "Nadege, serve Ma'am." "Magnificent!" "Some beans, Ma'am?" "No green beans?" "Next, Nadege, serve Sir." "So Billie's been out all this time without eating?" "You said so yourself." "He's very stubborn in his grudge." "Yes, but never for so long." "Never for so long, Andre, You must believe me!" "I wonder whether it is not the case that we should report his disappearance?" " His disappearance?" " Of course." "Billie's disappeared, right?" " I'm going to inform the police." " Police?" "Why the police?" "No, you cannot pass!" "It's dangerous!" "I'm not a lifeguard!" "Away!" " Andre." " She's my sister, Inspector." "It's her son who's disappeared and who might be at sea." " Andre!" " Yes." "Sir, the rescuers are doing their utmost." "Ma Loute!" "Ma Loute!" "Ma Loute!" "Ma Loute!" "Ma Loute!" "Ma Loute!" "Ma Loute!" "Going out to sea is dangerous." "Don't you know?" "What was the idea of going out in this weather?" "You wanted to drown?" "Eh?" "What did you think?" "That I don't already have enough work?" "And the sea, my goodness!" "It can swallow you." "What do you have to say?" "It's not funny." "Look at me!" "And you, Ma'am!" "I wouldn't bother consoling them!" "And you know why?" "Only fools go out on a boat with the sea like that." "Didn't you see the storm?" "The waves and the wind?" "The wind and the waves..." "The families, the children... police, horses, sailors and the rest!" "You see them?" "They're all out here!" "Does that mean anything at all?" " Billie, darling!" " I'm coming, Mother!" "And I, Malfoy, when I do not find anything, I swell up." "I'm all bloated and swollen." "Hey, did you find anything?" "I can't understand anything you're saying." "I don't understand with that thing on your head." "Return below." "Look, the Bruforts." "Come on, Malfoy!" "One, two!" "One, two!" "So, Mr. Brufort, you've recovered the boat?" "I understand why they call you the Eternal, with all the lives you've saved." "You're admirable." "You saved the life of your kid, and the little van Peteghem." "I'm here because people are still disappearing." "You really do not know the lady in the photo... and the couple yesterday?" "Don't even think about blaming all these missing persons on me!" "I wouldn't get nervous." "You're a witness, that's all." "I just transported them across." " That's all." " OK, but I do have to ask questions." "It's my job." "Billie!" "Billie, what is it now?" "You haven't finished yet?" "Oh, what a charming bird." "It's a blackbird, no?" "Andre!" "Heck, Malfoy, did you see that?" "She's the kid." " What?" " That boy... is a girl." "That girl there?" "The boy saved with that other one, the Brufort boy - the little van Peteghem." " It's a boy who is a girl." " Perhaps it's for the carnival." "He looks like a pederast, but a young one." "My beautiful Billie." "It's a boy... that girl." "Do you understand?" "Boss, in my opinion..." "It isn't like "is it bacon or pig?"" "A girl's a girl and a boy is a boy." "Christian, my cousin!" "Welcome to the Typhonium!" "It's incredible!" "What do you mean?" "Christian stays here all summer, every year." "Come now and embrace your cousin, scoundrel!" "Christian!" "I'm so sad." "How are you?" "Let's move onto the terrace." "Andre and Aude are already fighting!" " Scoundrel!" " That's a bit much." "Have a seat on a lounge chair." "It's antique." "Stretch your arms." "Christian, you'll be punished!" "Wicked!" "Scoundrel!" "Aude." "A bit of whisseki?" " This is a aperi... aperi... aperitif." " Oh, Andre." " A bit of whisseki, Christian?" " Yes, please." " Andre." " Ah... well, then... a lemonade, eh." " No, "whisseki", Andre." " Alright then." "A little whisseki to Christian." " It's cocktail hour..." " Isabelle?" "A finger of port?" " Just a little finger." " A little one..." "There we are." "To Isabelle." "And whisseki for me." "This is not wise." "It is aperi... aperi... aperitif." "Pardon, give it to me, dear." "Ah, it's beautiful...!" "Here you go." "Nadege?" "Snacks?" "Nadege!" "Yes, Ma'am." " Tomorrow there's the procession." " Oh yes!" "The procession!" "I would not miss the procession for the world!" "For nothing in the world!" " And why is that, dear?" " Yes, why is that, dear?" "Can't you guess?" "Ah..." "Nadege, there they are." "Good!" "No, no..." "I can't guess, no." "Who gave me back my Billie, saving him from the ferocious sea?" "Who gave me back my Billie, saving him from the ferocious sea?" "The Eternal, Ma'am!" "Mr. Brufort?" " Nadege!" "No talking when on duty!" "Andre!" " Nadege, come on now!" "." "It was not Brufort who saved Billie!" "Who saved Billie?" " But tell us, Aude!" " Oh, but it is unbearable!" "It was..." "It was..." "It was the Virgin Mary who watched over my Billie!" " Our Lady of the Waves!" "No?" " Naturally." "That's a fine pilgrimage tomorrow, the consecration of the Virgin." "Look who it is!" "Nadege!" "The Virgin Mary saved our Billie!" " Christian!" " And my Billie!" "My Billie!" "Nadege, we'll move into the dining room!" "Call the girls from their rooms." " Who is this boy?" " Ma Loute." "I was out at sea with him." "Fascinating!" "Ma..." "Ma..." " Ma Loute, ma'am." " Would you invite your friend to dinner?" " Oh, that's a great idea, really." " We must pay tribute to your dad." " Thanksh." " "Thanksh!" But what is this?" "What is this, a speech impediment?" ""Thanksh!"" "It's... "Chrishtian", take one of my "armsh!" "Wow, the Typhonium!" "And this facade!" "Look!" "The facade!" " We'll be here a while, Boss?" " Oh yeah." " The Eternal." " The Eternal Brufort, yes." " Who ferries people over." " His boy is not there with him." "Because he will be off having fun with..." "that animal, right?" "." "Van Peteghems are odd creatures." "Very odd." " Look over there!" "It's a nudist." " Completely naked, but plenty of fur." "We cannot stay here, Malfoy!" "We're not satyrs, we're the police." "Hey, back off!" "We are the police." " It is a nudist beach, here." " Yet more weird people!" "A nymfo..." "Boy pederasts... nudists...." " And the missing!" "Let's take a look." " Oh yeah." " It is our work." " Exactly." "I'm the leader, it's my turn." "Oh, she's gone." "Gone." "No longer there!" "Malfoy!" "Malfoy!" "Malfoy!" "Malfoy!" "Malfoy!" "Get me up!" "Did you see it, Boss?" "A vanishing before our eyes." "The pooch is still here." "Malfoy!" "Malfoy!" "Malfoy!" "Move it!" "..." "Duke!" "Duke!" "It is very strange." " People have disappeared..." " It has happened... in recent weeks." "All around here..." "in the bay or in the Slack Dunes." " How is that possible?" " People disappear every day, it's natural." "I too have disappeared - last year, among the dunes... for three hours." " Remember, Andre?" " Yes, but you just got lost." "You went missing by yourself, it's a different sort of thing." "The police are very worried." "Very worried!" "Especially since these missing persons come from Lille, Roubaix, Tourcoing..." "Lille-Roubaix-Tourcoing?" "But... it's terrifying!" "Andre, it's terrifying!" "Are we not from Tourcoing?" " We are from Tourcoing, Andre!" " Andre, don't scare everyone." " And we're in front of the girls..." " But there is nothing to fear." "The police are on it." "They're monitoring the entire bay and will solve everything, you'll see!" "And then there's our friend, who watches over this beautiful world, no?" " You'll protect us." "Right, Ma Loute?" " Yeah, you'll protect us, Ma Loute?" "Nadege!" "Maybe we'll have to give up our walks in the bay?" "That cop wasn't very reassuring." "He came here yesterday and he seemed to me... how can I say... very involved." "Yes, he seemed very involved." "But it is all rather mysterious." " No dead bodies!" " Andre!" "I, myself..." "I have no fears about these disappearances." "I can safely walk around the bay." "I'm from from Calais!" "What do you mean "from Calais"?" "You're one of us, my cousin." "You were born in Tourcoing and remain from Tourcoing!" "Traitor!" "No..." "Christian's right." "It's obvious." "No Calaisian has disappeared, and we never want to ruin his walks?" "Andre?" "Of course, there is no danger, Christian." "No danger, Christian." "No danger." "As for me, and even Billie..." "No solitary walks until further notice." "OK, girls?" "And you, Billie, with your friend "Mo Louis"..." "Your new friend.." "Never alone, never!" "Here's the chicken!" "At least, our dear boys have been returned." "Throughout history there is a providence." "There are those who will be saved and..." "and others." "Simply put, they have received the grace." "Were they saved because they had the grace..." "Or is it because they've been saved that they receive the grace." " Andre, please!" " It's the same thing." "Predestination." "You're certainly ready to get on your high horse, whenever a little question bothers you." "As Dad always said." "We are Van Peteghems." "No matter what happens." "Van Peteghems do not disappear, that's all." "That's true for me, Christian... van Peteghem of Calais, in the dunes." "And at sea for Billie van Peteghem of Tourcoing." "Christian, my cousin, you've completely understood my point." "Yes, things are exactly like that." "Let us give thanks, tomorrow, to Our Lady of the Waves..." "For having returned "Mo Louis" and Billie." " Ma Loute." " Ah yes, Ma Loute." " What does it mean, "Ma Loute"?" " I don't know, that'sh my name." ""That'sh" my name!" "Ma Loute..." "My little Ma Loute." "So, this afternoon..." "sand yachting at the beach!" "Come on!" "Leave the yacht, get off!" "Bravo." "Dad!" "Heck!" "Who was the driving this machine?" " Who was driving this thing?" " My husband!" " And where is Mr. van Peteghem?" " I don't know!" "Where are you?" "A moment of your attention, please!" "It's quite incredible to vanish here..." "but there is no body!" " It's a mystery!" " No, it's not possible!" "It's not possible!" "But yes." "It's another vanishing!" "There is a whole series." "one, two, three, four, five..." "Andre!" "Show yourself to us!" "Come back to us!" "Ah, my children!" "Ah, my children!" "What an amazing flight I had!" "But why is this building on the beach?" "Machin." "Machin." "What's this building doing here?" "This building, Machin." "Mr Van Peteghem?" "You haven't disappeared?" " You live here?" " Yes, this is my neighbourhood." "Saint Michel, the fishermen's district." "Come." "Ma Loute, who is this?" " Your girlfriend?" "She's beautiful." " Where's she from?" " Get back!" " How old is she?" "Get lost!" "Get lost!" " Who is she?" " What's all this carry-on?" " You have to tell them!" " Ma Loute!" "It's Billie, mum." "Go away!" "Go on, go!" " What are you looking at?" " I'm looking at where you live." "It's beautiful." "Well... it's ordinary." "What are you doing?" "Ma Loute!" "My children." "The roar of the lions..." "The howling of wolves..." "The ocean's fury in the storm..." "And waves that destroy." "They are part of eternity... too great for the eyes of man." "As the boat was at the mercy of the waves, the poet whispered to me." "The instant I saw the rescuers close to our young stray sheep." "In these troubled times when our hearts tremble   in the presence of immensity." "We celebrate the Virgin of the Sea who protects every sailor with her eyes." "The Virgin of the Sea watches over you like a beacon." "She blesses the fragile vessels   keeps them away from dangerous reefs   and heads them towards the best fishing." "Therefore, I call you to gather for our prayers  to the Virgin of the Sea." "Fish in peace!" "Find an abundance of cod and mackerel." "Amen." "Sir." "Ma'm." "Mum..." "Aude Van Peteghem." "Andre Van Peteghem." " Hello." " Mrs Van Peteghem." " Gaby." " Blanche." "We know what to do, but we do not do." "My brother." "My love." "My love." "Billie... stop this perverse game!" "It's horriblel!" "Hail Mary, full of grace..." "Jesus... the fruit of thy womb." "Have mercy on me!" "Have mercy on me!" "If you keep doing this, baby Jesus will fall." "We know what to do, but we do not do!" "This child is the fruit of blood of absolute evil, Andre, of absolute evil." "You men!" "You make me puke!" "You make me throw up, all of you!" "I don't even know who the father is, Andre!" "You and your depravities!" " And those of our own father." " Aude... you know we were drunk." "Shut up, Andre!" "You can find a way to justify any meanness!" "You are the devil!" "Have you no idea of the evil you have made me, you and our father?" "But he was totally drunk!" "Why do you bring Billie to the Typhonium every summer?" " Because of his cousins!" " Say no more!" "Say no more!" "Poor kid!" "My poor kid!" "You don't know if I'm the father, or if our father is his real father?" "You or him, what's the difference?" "You should be man enough to take on the responsibilities of the evil you do, Andre!" "Poor Billie." "What a monster, with our own blood, we brought into the world!" "You are no longer disguised as a girl?" "I am a girl who disguises herself as a boy." " Inspector!" " Ah, Mr. van Peteghem." "We wanted to know how you are- after the accident with the sand yacht." "Very kind of you to worry about me, Inspector Machin." " We are all human." " Lift up your hearts!" "We went to pay tribute to Our Lady of the Waves." " The one that helped us to find Billie." " Her boyfriend..." "His girlfriend..." "Boy or girl?" "Here, a woman found this, when she was returning from the procession." "It is the wallet of Mr. Christian van Peteghem, it says so inside." "So then it is the wallet of my cousin." "I mean, my brother-in-law." " Brother-in-law or cousin?" " Both." "I married his sister." " You married your cousin?" " Cousin of the second degree, Inspector." "Ah!" "Bizarre, right?" "No, Inspector!" "It is typical in large families in the Nord." "Cousins, cousins, all the same..." "All the same?" "It is because of industrial alliances, inspector." "We don't know this so well." "My wife is not an industrialist." "It is the modern world, Inspector!" "And capitalism." " Capitalism?" "Heck!" " Tell me, Nadege:" "Where's Mr. Christian?" " Mr who?" " My cousin, the brother of the lady." "The brother of the lady is your cousin?" "This daftie." " Nadege, please!" " No, sir." " Your brother hasn't returned." " But how?" "It's not possible." "He left before us, so he should be here." " You don't think he's disappeared?" " What?" "Christian has disappeared?" "No, Ma'am!" "Please!" "It's still just a hypothesis." "Calm down!" "Do not put the cart before the horse!" "Your cousin..." " No, he's my brother." " Brother and cousin?" "Perhaps Mr. Christian van Peteghem has not disappeared." "We will not draw any conclusions." "I have everything under control." "Along with Mr. Malfoy." "It'll be fine." "Courage!" " You'll take me across, Ma Loute?" " Yes, Billie." "You've got balls?" "Are you a boy?" "You've made a right cunt out of me!" "Here's where Christian van Peteghem's wallet was found." "Could it be that he fell from the cliff?" " Could it be he fell from the cliff?" " No, Sir!" "We have already checked!" " He can't have just vanished." " Nobody has fallen from the cliffs." "It's very high." "So much higher." "Careful, Mrs. van Peteghem!" "Jesus.." "A miracle!" "A miracle!" "Isabelle!" " It's a miracle, Inspector!" " Heck!" "We are just above the Virgin!" "From there, she carried her, I believe!" "Isabelle!" "Forgive me!" "Oh, look, fresh meat!" "Stop it now!" "Away from there!" "Go play with something else." "Let the food alone." "What happened?" "Go away!" " Does it hurt?" " Calm down." "You've bitten me!" "Ma Loute?" "Ma Loute?" "Enough!" "Stop it right now, girls!" " What is going on?" " Blanche does not wait her turn!" " Is Billie with you?" " No." " We have no news of Christian?" " Unfortunately not!" "My Billie!" "My Billie!" " My Billie!" " Mum..." "My Billie." " So, can we stop this bullshit?" " My Billie!" "My Billie!" "I will show you." "Honestly!" "Thank you, Colonel." "It is quite a case, you know?" " We'll walk along and check the dunes." " Go." "If they do not find anything then it is a mystery, Malfoy." "In any case there is nothing we can do." " Malfoy!" "Malfoy!" "I'm flying!" " I'll look for a rope." "I'm flying, Malfoy." "I'm flying away." "Malfoy!" "I've swollen up!" "I've swollen!" " I'm swollen 'cause I've found nothing!" " Don't worry." "Help, Malfoy." " You took the case too much to heart." " Yes, that's why I've swollen up!" "Come on, Malfoy, come on!" "Courage, soldiers!" "Courage, soldiers!" "Courage!" "Look thoroughly." " Boss, they're here." " Yes, Boss." "And they are still alive." "Well done, boys." "People disappear all the time, it's the nature of things." "A garden party." "I wanted to thank you, sincerely, from my heart..." "For the outstanding quality of your work!" "So admirable!" " Thank you, Mr. van Peteghem." " Yes, because you... always remained very human." "It reminds me of Victor Hugo." " We all have extraordinary references." " ÒA force that goes."" "That's what you are." "ÒA force that goesÒ." "Victor Hugo's words." " A force of life!" " A force of life... yes... that goes!" " In any case, you were most admirable." " A tough investigation, Mr. van Peteghem." "And you knew how to handle it!" "Methodically and with intuition." "And it has transformed our lives!" "It was a happy "concussion"." "Machin, who has always possessed the right insight into every situation." "A happy concussion." "Sorry?" "What was that?" " A happy concussion." " Pardon?" " A happy concussion." " A happy conclusion?" "A conclusion of the story, thank to him, full of harmony." " What joy!" " May I suggest a toast?" " Here's to the military." " Of course, obviously." " They were so admirable." " And to my colonel!" " To the priest!" " Yes, and to Virgin Mary." "He was of immense value, this priest.." "Good health!" " Good health!" "Yours!" " To yours!" "Inspector!" "I'm flying!" "I'm flying!" "I'm heading towards the sea!" "Van Peteghem!" "Malfoy, Malfoy!" " Boss!" " Grab the rope!" "Help!" "Mr. Van Peteghem!" "Grab the rope!" "Inspector Machin!" " Machin!" " Stop me." "Inspector Machin!" " Malfoy, Malfoy!" " Inspector!" "Grab the rope!" "Quick!" "Heck!" "Heck!" " All right, boss?" " Heck..." "Machin!" "Machin!" "My friend." "Machin." "Come, Machin." "Machin!" "Thank you."
