"You can come." "How is it?" "It's OK." "The maps are well done." "There are more pictures." "There's a nice hotel they say nothing about." " Which one?" "The one with the waterfalls." "That doesn't mean it doesn't exist anymore." "I know." "I didn't fill the tub completely." "You can use the shower head to rinse off." "The razor is here." "Would you like that?" "Well..." "I'll start the fire." "Join me when you're ready." "And put your pajamas in the dirty laundry." "We'll wash them." "See you soon." "You're early." "Nathan was super excited." "I hadn't heard from Laurent, so I took the other car." "Maybe I should have called." "Is he working a lot lately?" " Too much." "Sometimes, he calls at 7 pm to say he won't be home." "We're always on standby." "Laurent has always been devoted." "One of his best qualities, until it becomes a fault, of course." "It isn't easy for Nathan either." " I understand." "But it's hard to blame someone who gives so much of himself." "Leave it." "That must be Caro." "Oh, my little Consolation!" "I've been so excited since yesterday!" "It's not nice to keep secrets from your Mommy!" "Do you think it was easy for me?" "I wanted to send you lots of little clues!" "But I forbid you to wait until desert to announce the news." "Gaetan isn't here?" " He's coming." "He's in the car." "And how are you?" " OK." "But you gave me a hard time by telling me so late..." "Oh Mom, I'm sorry, but..." "And how's Cedric?" " Completely obsessed by his trip." "Cool." "It's OK then?" "I have a little gift for him." "It can wait if you prefer." "Cyrielle, you're already here?" " How are you?" "Great!" "ls Laurent here too?" "Not yet." "He'll join us later." " Oh no!" "When?" "Caro, cut it out." "Laurent works like a dog." "Yes, but it's becoming impossible for us to be all together." "Your brother is not at your beck and call, especially if you tell him the night before." "Is the little one here?" "Hello guys!" "Come here little man!" "Did you miss me?" " Yes!" "You missed me to death?" " To death!" "You're growing so fast, it's scary!" "And you, did you miss me?" "Sony!" "And here it is!" " Wow..." "We'll be completely tipsy with all that!" "How are you doing?" "We don't have to drink it all, Mom." "How are you?" " Fine." "And you?" "Really good." "Laurent isn't with you?" "It's OK, I already got annoyed!" " Yes, and it's quite enough." "Are we eating outside?" " Won't it be cold?" "If it's nice outside, let's make the most of it." "I'll bring the bottles out then." "So, what can I do?" "You're OK, Alain?" "Look..." "Look what I've brought." "Ah, Saint Estephe!" " Yes." "Mum!" "Cedric, what are you doing there?" "Don't you want to say hello?" "How long were you going to stay alone like that?" "I've just arrived..." "How are you?" "OK, I'm OK." "Well, I'm OK too." "And Cyrielle, are you OK?" " Yes, I'm OK." "Great, everyone's OK!" "Let me look at you." "That's good, you're clean like that." "It's neater." "Did you shave?" "I have something for you in my purse, on the bench." "Austria" "Thank you." "You're not happy?" "Do you want to give us a hand?" "Dad asked me to join him when I was ready." "Then put your book down and bring him one of these two trays." "Is that the one you wanted?" "Do you like it?" "Cedric, are you OK?" "That's good, you can put it down." "Did you say hello to Gaétan?" "Hello." "A little more, and I would have thought you were mad at me." "How are you?" " I'm OK." "How's work?" "Good." "Who wants to taste the wine?" "Alain?" "Cedric, go check on Nathan." "He's been in the woods for a while." "I'm wonted that he gets lost." "You don't want to go?" "Don't take too long." "He's not going to take the trip." "His father offered it to him without asking me." "Cedric isn't capable of it." "It's difficult enough the way it is." "Mom, what could happen?" "It's only Austria!" "And Dad's going with him." "No matter what I say, I'm always bad cop here." "He's been packing and unpacking for a month and I have to deal with that." "Don't complain, at least he's busy." " It's true that it gives us a break." "Could you wash this too, sweetheart?" "As long as he stays cool, I'm fine." "Nathan?" "Nathan!" "You have to tighten it up." "Here, like this..." "But be careful: if you run, you'll trip and you'll hurt your hands." "So don't run, OK?" "Wait!" "I made another pile over there!" "We have enough!" "Don't go too far, Mom will be angry!" "It's just over there!" "The wine is great!" "Whenever you're ready!" "Give me 5 more minutes to go do my face!" "But you look fine, Mom." "Let's go in the garden." "I want to look pretty." "I'll be quick." " What can we do in the meantime?" "Make sure that the rice doesn't overcook." "I'll be right back!" "It's not easy with your father." " Why?" "I don't know, I tried to talk to him but he doesn't really pick up." "He's concentrated on his fire." "Nathan, wait for me!" "What are you doing?" "I don't know. I just tried to talk to him, to be nice." "Stop pressuring yourself, nobody asked you to do that." "Be natural." "I'm natural...that's not the problem." "But he's pretty tense." "You're really paranoid." "Cyrielle?" "Nathan?" "Nathan?" "Nathan!" "Mommy!" "Come on, it's OK, come on..." "Where is your shoelace?" "Let's go, it's nothing." "We'll wash it inside." "Calm down, calm down..." "Nathan, what happened?" "He just fell, nothing serious." "We'll wash it off in the kitchen." "Now, big boy, it's the time to be brave." "What went through your head to go off like that with Nathan?" "Among both of you, who's the adult?" "It's OK, come here." "What did you want to tell me earlier?" "Is there orange juice on the table?" "I don't know." "In that case you check." "If it isn't in the fridge, then it's on the table." "I heard that before five years old is when the musical ear of a child... has its best chances..." " Really?" "It's a time of your life, when you're striving to learn." "May I, Cyrielle?" " It's much easier." "Here you are, big boy." "It is never too late for learning." "No, but it's just easier." "Does it still hurt?" "It's not your fault, it's mine." "But I told you, you shouldn't run." "Does everyone have some wine?" " Yes, I think so." "There's one missing." " It's mine, I'm drinking orange juice." "But you love wine, you always drink wine." "It's Phélan Ségur." "Saint-Estéphe." "Thanks, I know." "Gaétan bought it." "Mind your own business." "Here." "Dad, are you coming?" " I'm coming." "Do we have everything?" "Who lights the candles?" "I'll do it." "Alain, come, we're waiting for you." "I'm here." "So, cheers?" " Cheers." "Cheers." " Cheers." "Cheers." "Your dress is beautiful, Mom!" " You see, I was right to change." "It's better like this." " You're very pretty anyhow." "It's a gift from your father." "You see, all men don't have bad taste!" "Learn from it!" " Hey, cut it out, OK?" "Alain, tomorrow morning, I'll come take my first restyling lesson!" "I don't need to be restyled, but a dress every now and then, that would be nice..." "Don't worry, we, men, are naturally good looking." "Absolutely!" " Look at them, those two!" "I didn't know we had to look good." "I would have put my shirt on." "What are you waiting for?" "Eat!" "Should I put the meat on?" " No, we can still wait a little." "Your hands." "Not under the table." "It's delicious!" " Yes, it's good." "Those especially." "I couldn't have done anything without my two kitchen helpers." "What is it?" "You're weird." "I'm not weird." "I'm fine." "And you, you're not too cold?" " No." "This one is a strong little guy!" " Yes." "He gave me a hand with the wood, right?" "Well, I'm tired of wailing." "The absent are always in the wrong." "Do you want to know why I'm weird?" "Here, Mom!" "It's for me?" "Not exactly, but open it." "I swear that if it's a joke..." " Open it!" "My darling!" "I am so happy!" "I'm so happy!" "Don't tell me you didn't have a hint." " Of course I knew!" "Told you." "All those clues..." "Caro can't hide anything from me!" "I feel everything!" "Congratulations, sweetheart." " Thank you, Dad!" "You're pregnant?" " Well yes, smart guy!" "Why didn't you say it right away then?" " For the surprise, Cedric!" "He found it strange she didn't drink any wine." "I was really hoping Laurent would come, but..." "The envelope was a good trick." "I thought it was a gift for me!" "See, you thought it would be too obvious!" " Well, it's what everyone does..." "Don't worry, it worked really well." " Congratulations." "Thank you, Alain!" "Can you see those two little marks?" " Congratulations!" "Where?" " The little white marks there and there?" "You see?" " Yes." "Between the two marks, the darker area is the baby in my belly." "Do you realize you were like that in Mommy's belly?" "Cedric, do you want to go upstairs a while?" "How is it going?" "For the moment?" "Fine." "I think even/thing's fine." "Can I look?" "Of course, come." "Don't forget that it's good news..." "You're happy for me, at least?" "And are you happy, Nathan?" "You're going to have a little boy cousin!" "Ora little girt cousin!" " I think I want it to be a surprise." "I wasn't expected." "Was I, Mom?" "Cedric, how did you come outwith that?" "But you already told me that." " Nonsense, I never did." "And it's completely wrong!" "I still have lots of Nathan's clothes and toys if you want." "Well, if it's a boy..." "That would be really great." " I also saved almost everything." "I already gave some to Laurent for Nathan, but there are still boxes in the attic." "That's too old-fashioned." "I don't want my baby to look like Oliver Twist" "Don't be silly!" "Those clothes still have lots of charm." "You'll be happy not to spend the money." "That's really not her top priority." " Hey!" "It's not nice to tum me in!" "That's strange..." "What is it?" "That's the umbilical cord, or something like that..." "OK..." "Phew!" "We'll probably have to move." " Oh, yes?" "Any idea where?" "I'd like a house, especially a garden." "We have friends who are leaving a ground-floor-apartment with a beautiful garden." "Not on the ground floor." "In the city it's very insecure." "Yes Caro, but I can't imagine a garden on the 3rd floor..." "That's why we're thinking of a house." " It will still have a ground floor." "It doesn't worry you to have a baby?" "A little, yes." "But I'm counting on you to help me." " ls that true?" "Because I was wondering, do you feel ready?" "You're never totally ready." "Can you still have an abortion?" " What's wrong with you?" "Cedric, Caro..." " Did you hear what he said?" "It's for them that I'm asking." "So they don't get unhappy." "It's not to be mean." "So, just be happy and shut up!" " And you're drinking." "I saw you drink." " Caro, it's just nonsense." "Relax." " Why are you defending him?" "I'm not defending him." " Please stop now, how old are you?" "And the trip then?" "We're waiting for the doctor's advice." " It worries me a bit." "And financially..." "Caro, my parents promised to help us." "We can help you too." "Won't we, Alain?" "We did it for Laurent." "That's nice, we'll see." "Even so, you're lucky." "I'm also going to take my trip." "It will be great, and I'm ready." "We'll see." "Nothing has been decided yet." "Still no news from Laurent?" " No." "Caro, should I quickly show you the boxes in the attic?" "The Otztal mountains..." "Ellmau..." "Innsbruck..." "The frozen lakes..." "Lunersee..." "That's what you call a break?" "He's a real pain." "He'll calm down." "He's just troubled by the news." "Can't you understand?" "I don't understand how you do it." " We take what we get, Caro." "That's it." " Don't you and Dad ever want to take it easy... just the two of you." "Where's your life?" "Look at Dad!" "He's completely worn out!" "We don't need your advice." "You'll see in a few years..." "And your father is doing fine." "ok..." "Do as you wish." "I just want us to spend a nice evening, that's it." "A hand maybe?" "I'll lake a refill." "Alain?" "Do you want one too?" " Sure, take my glass." "Did you find anything?" "More or less." "And Cedric's stuff'?" "Your brother keeps everything, there's way enough space in his room." "I'm going back downstairs." "You'll join us?" "You don't want to look with me?" " Too many emotions for one evening." "We'll lake the time later, if you don't mind." "What's the matter?" "Stop fidgetting and tell me:" "What do you want?" "Nathan, what's wrong?" " I don't know, he won't tell." "Are you tired?" "Hungry?" "I'm thirsty..." "Where's your glass?" " Where did you put it?" "Did you drop it or not?" "Alain, could you lend us your flashlight, please?" "Did you lose something?" " No, Nathan dropped his glass." "Is that your new game?" "Cyrielle..." "We'll go get you another glass." "You're leaving?" "I'm taking Nathan home." "He's exhausted." "I'll come back with Laurent." "Can't you try to put him to bed here?" "Wait for Laurent with us..." "Call him, so we can know when he's coming." " He doesn't answer." "T"!" "again." "Please." "So, you're tired, little guy?" " No, I'm fine." "Look what I found." "Do you like it?" " Yes." "Did you annoy Mommy?" " I lost my glass..." "Oh my..." "And that's why everyone is angry?" "It's starting to rain." "Shouldn't we go inside?" "Maybe it's just a few drops." "What are you doing there all alone?" "Cedric, come inside now!" "Are you having a nice evening?" "Here." "Thanks." "How do you feel?" "Do you still want to take your trip?" "OK, listen..." "Play the game, be discreet... don't bother anyone." "If it's really too hard, then leave the table." "We won't blame you." "I also dream of wide open spaces." "Of walks with you." "Two men and backpacks... landscapes." "I really want to take this trip with you." "Just the two of us." "I want you to have a good memory of me." "May I promise you something?" "You have to believe." "I'm sorry." "For what?" "For your barbecue." "Thanks." "So you want to get all wet too?" "I spoke with Laurent, he's on his way." " See!" "You have to be a little pushy with him." "When is he coming?" " He said another hour." "Thank goodness I didn't wait for him." "I'm going to get some glasses." "Did you tell my mother for Laurent?" "No problem, I'll do it." "Laurent will be here in an hour." " Ah, at last." "You're OK?" " Yes, and you?" "You're not cold?" " No." "Nathan isn't here?" "He went to explore the house." "God damn it, Alain!" "Are you crazy?" "And with Nathan?" "Without asking me?" "If the slightest thing happened..." " I was there, very close by." "And if he went further'?" "I saw you on the porch." "What are putting in his head?" "That even/thing's OK?" "That he can do whatever he wants?" "Of course not." " What did you tell him?" "Nothing!" "It's fishy, what you're doing." "I thought we were sticking together." "You'll min the whole evening, so don't complain afterwards." "Did you do that?" "Very impressive." "Beautiful." "It's so hot in the living-room." "I'll let you?" "Mommy!" "Mommy!" "Mommy!" "Oh shit, I totally suck..." "I think I'm finally going to buy the reflex camera." "It's more expensive than the video camera but the quality is awesome." "And it's still a photo camera, so you can also take good pictures." "It will be great when the baby's born." "Not bad." "It will be great for him to see those pictures in 20 years." "And even for Caro and me, when we're older, it will be fun... to go back to those times, see what we looked like..." "I don't have any videos from when I was a child... and I miss that a bit." "I would have liked to see how I moved, talked, and all that..." "And..." " Play." "Nathan?" "Nathan?" "Nathan?" "Mommy!" "Nathan!" "What are you doing in here?" "What happened?" "Tell me." "What's wrong, big boy?" "Talk to me!" "It's alright, calm down." "I'm here." "It's over." "I hope you're not too hungry, It's going to take some time." "I'm starting to get hungry." "Do you have anything we could nibble on?" "Aren't you hungry?" "A little, yes." "I'll see what we can do." "Take this out." "You won't give us a hand?" "Dinner is served!" "Could you bring some water'?" " Yes." "What is it?" "Are you OK?" "Nathan, don't stare at people like that." "Who wants some wine?" "Not Caroline, that's for sure!" "No, you're right, not Caroline..." "Cyrielle?" "Well, you're having a good time here!" "Things are a bit out of order, I just put the meat on." "So serve yourself salad, but leave some room for the rest" "What's this?" "Is that you, Nathan?" "Were you worried I'd starve?" "Gaetan, could you pass me the wine, please?" "How's work?" "Well, the last year was difficult for us, but this one is turning out well." "Well, you're not exactly there yet." "Earlier, when I asked you that very same question, you laughed." "Yes, I was a little surprised." "By what?" " I don't know..." "That you asked me the question..." " Why?" "I don't know, but don't worry, you did well to ask me." "Can I ask you something?" " We were talking..." "Are you happy that I'm here?" " Of course, what a question..." "That's also why we came here." "Give me your glass." "Well, feeling better'?" "Nathan, where is it?" "Don't do this again." "But who do you prefer'?" "Laurent, Caro or me?" "Cut it out!" "We love all three of you!" "You're our children." "I'm starting to get impatient." "Caro, did he have a glass?" "We love each other a lot, but..." " But nothing." "So, where is it then?" "Go get him a glass, please." "You're soaking wet, Cedric." "Don't you want to change clothes?" "It's because I ran to prepare my trip." "Ah, OK, that's why..." "Bon appétit!" "It's true, Cedric, you're not very fresh..." "A mother has three children and two apples." " Cedric, I forbid you." "How does she do to give the same amount" " Cedric. -to each child..." " Stop it!" "without punishing one?" "Fuck, here we go." "I made it up." "It's a riddle." "Awesome." "But we don't want to know." "Why?" "Can we change the subject?" "It's no big deal." "It'sjust a riddle." "With apples." "Mom and Dad know it already." "And it's not difficult." "Gaétan?" "You don't know it, do you?" "Gaétan?" "Cam?" "Cyrielle?" "Nathan?" "Applesauce..." "She makes applesauce." "WW are you laughing?" "Tell me why you're laughing!" " Let go." "Let go!" "Mommy!" "Cedric, stop it right away!" " You're a complete moron!" "I just want to know why he laughed." " He just laughed to please you!" "I'm asking him." "I laughed because I was surprised." "And the way you said 'applesauce' was funny." "But it's not funny." "You always laugh at things that aren't funny." "Or to please someone like Gaetan..." "That's enough, you're not going to ruin the evening!" "Come with me, right now!" "You asked for it." " I only laughed at his fucking joke!" "But you laughed nervously." " What does that mean?" "You pay too much attention to him." "You shouldn't!" "He's your brother, I'm just trying to be nice." "But there's no point to it." "You can't be friends with everyone!" "Tell us why you don't want me to go." " ls this a rebellion?" "And Dad is really sick!" " What are you talking about?" "Well, what is it?" "You think we treat you differently?" "Don't talk to me like that." "But how should we to talk to you after what you did to Gaetan?" "I only want you to listen to me." "Sony, Gaetan." "Then be very careful to what you're going to say." "But I don't want to hear him!" "I don't want him to waste my evening by saying a bunch of nonsense." "That's what you do." "You never stop talking." "It's not the same." " Why?" "Excuse us for being defensive..." "Do you want to finish the evening alone?" "Austria." "What does this name bring up for each of us?" "Prodigiously preserved nature, pure water lakes... superb mountain ranges and famous ski resorts." "Austria, it's also its customs and traditions which are still alive... reassuring points of reference in a Europe in full transformation." "The country, which was the birthplace of Mozart, Gustave Klimt, Freud..." "Arnold Schwarzenegger and Hitler, is not however against modernity." "In the streets, in the famous cafés, you will meet young people thriving to build a new world." "Austria, a country that hasn't turned its back on the past... but which hasn't forgotten to look towards the future." "That's what you wanted to tell us, Cedric?" "If you like, we'll lake the time lo talk about this tomorrow, OK?" "Why?" "I'm read'!" "" "Cedric..." "But I know everything!" "That's Bregenz, the capital of Vorarlberg... one of the nine Lénders of Austria." "That's where we'll arrive." "On the Lake of Constance, there is a splendid music festival." "The Arlberg Tunnel is 14km long." "To take it, you have to buy a tax disc." "For ten days, it's 10,80 Euros, two months, 26 Euros... one year, 86,50 Euros." "However, there are free passes in the hotels for museums or guided hikes." "Breakfasts are very generous." "We could make sandwiches." "We've understood really well, Cedric." "You know everything by heart." "We said we'd let him talk." "The nice region of Bregenzerwald... between the wooded hills of the Prealps and the high mountains." "It holds twenty villages with flowered houses." "Very interesting:" "Dornbirn is a super trendy city." "The LUnersee, that you can reach by cable car between 8 and 5." "The Montafon is the most southern valley of the Vorarlberg." "It extends to the famous road of the Silvretta, which goes up 2.032 meters in 30 bends, creating an authentic amphitheater of mountains." "It's nature is beautiful, as wild as you could wish." "The Kleinwalsertal, which is only reachable on foot in Austria." "The Tyrol, a very appealing region!" "That's where we'll find my landscape." "Beware, in the winter the prices triple." "So we'll surely go in the summer." "I don't like lo ski so much anyway." "You never skied." " I know." "We'll take the direct route, at the exit of the A14... which won't cost anything, except a 20-minute detour." "We'll also lake the Kaunertaler Gletscherstrasse... which winds through magnificent landscapes... where majestic glaciers and moraines left in their wake spread out." "At the end of the afternoon, the rocks take on superb pink and bronze reflects." "There are flowers on the balconies, fountains with crystal clear water." "Oratories, and other cavalries that make us dream." "Pansies, gentians, rhododendrons and azaleas... carpet the lakesides." "Orchids also." "The countryside will be beautiful." "And that's how we'll enter the Salzbourg region:" "The Grossglockner road!" "This road is so magical, so venerated..." "Stop now!" "You realize that if ever I let you go, we're talking about a week." "Or two, maximum." "You weren't hoping to go for a month?" " And my landscape?" "What's his landscape?" "How are you going to find it?" "It's a photo." "We don't even know where it is." " But it's in this region here." "I recognize the nature, the landscape." "And we'll ask the people!" "Or call the Tourism Office in Innsbruck. 0043-5128282." "The mountain guides, they must know." "I can call them now if you like!" " Cedric, stay here." "Each lake has its own color." "The Fuschlsee is emerald green, the Mondsee is pale green... the Wolfgangsee is pale blue." "Superb chalets with cosy rooms." "Outside walls covered with climbing peartrees." "The medieval charm and the love of life which appears at the first ray of sun... on feast days." "Is that it?" "Are you done?" "You do realize that there is something wrong, don't you?" "Cedric?" "For you to be ready to go on a trip like this doesn't mean... knowing by heart restaurant menus and the GDP of the country." "You need something else." "Innsbruck, Salzbourg, Hallstatt... the pearl of the Salzkammergut, Vienne and Graz." "I am ready!" "Why doesn't Mom want me to go?" " She's wonted about you." "But you're not worried?" "You're a pain in the ass!" " Caro..." "What I?" "Calm down." "Let's calm down now." "OK." "But could you talk to her'?" " I'm still here, Cedric." "I can hear you perfectly." "If Laurent were here, you wouldn't act like that." "You can come with me if you want." "You know that I'm ready." "You understand me." "The applesauce..." "I don't know..." "Not that well." "Cedric, the idea isn't to punish you." "It's only to make the right decision." "Also to protect you." " Protect me from what?" "From a lot of things." "And a little from yourself." "And your illusions." "The truth isn't always as you imagine it, you know that." "You will be inevitably disappointed." " We'll see." "Do you realize that all this requires a lot of effort from everyone here?" "I'm sorry." "What do you mean?" " I'm going." "I'm taking my trip." "Dad, are you coming?" "I don't owe you anything." "I go if I want." "So?" "Who's coming with me?" "Dad?" "Cyrielle?" "Caro, you can come, It won't bother me, on the contrary." "Look at yourself." "Nobody wants to come with you." "Stop." "It's going too far." "That's OK." "I'll go alone." "Then, go ahead." "The door is open." "To Austria." " Where you want, we don't care." "But it's right now." "Do you know why you love Austria so much?" "Why you dream of going there?" "I told you that your poster came from Austria." "But it also could be Switzerland, France or Canada." "I don't know." "I said Austria so I could have some peace." "So that you would stop harassing me." "It is Austria." "Maybe, I don't know." "You'll let us know." "Go on." "Leave." "And take your map." "It's in our way." "Cedric?" "Apologize..." "No, if you go, you go right now." "Like that." "Right away." "Let me take care of this now." "Good evening." "Are you OK?" "You need help?" "Good evening." "Good evening." "Cedric, are you coming in?" "Come on, take that off." "Hurry up!" "Why did we have to get here?" "Is this what you wanted?" "No." "Well, you were looking for it." "What a performance you gave us..." "Where are your pajamas?" "Dad told me to put them in the laundry." " In this basket?" "Nothing's wrong with them, put them on." "No, they're dirty." " I'm telling you, they're fine." "Look!" "But they were with the dirty clothes." " You don't want to put them on?" "I'm warning you, I'm out of patience now." "Fine..." "It would have been better to go to a restaurant." "It hurts him to see us." "No, he cares for you." "Maybe, but in the end..." "It feels like no one cares I'm going to be a Mom." "OK, great." "For sure, I've never seen him like that." "Well, he's in bed." "We can relax a little now." "Could you serve me some more, please?" "Why did you tell him it was Austria?" " You're not going to start too?" "But if you didn't know, you shouldn't have said anything." "I would like you to lose this habit of judging others without knowing." "If I put myself in his shoes..." "why couldn't he take this trip?" "He dreams of it, that's all he has." "Talk to your father, then you can all go together as a family." "I don't want to hear about it anymore." "To be honest when I heard him talk, it made me want to go too." "Great idea for our trip." "We can go to Austria with your brother." "And we can make sandwiches in the hotels!" "Idiot..." "Oh, it's OK..." "Aren't you tired, little guy?" "You can put him to bed in the small room, if you w..." "It's late, we're going to bed, OK?" "Come on, no scenes." "What are you doing, big boy?" "Going to sleep just when I get here?" "I missed you so much!" "How was it with Mommy?" "Good evening, everyone!" "I'm really really sorry to be late." "I thought my meeting would never end." "How are you, Dad?" "Your dress is really beautiful, Mom." " How did you do it?" "Do what?" " Come back." "I opened the door, like everyone." "So you're the one responsible for all this uproar'?" "I hope it's worth it." "Mom told me about a surprise..." "Do you have something to do with it?" "How are you?" "Was Mommy nice?" "You'll tell me later." " Stop." "What are you doing?" "Can you hear how Cyrielle speaks to your son?" " Mom, do something." "Yes, do something!" "I don't know what to do anymore." "How was it with the little one?" "He wasn't too difficult?" "Everyone was happy with him?" "Yes." "That's good." "Come closer." "Come here." "Cedric..." "Come here." " Stop." "Stop!" "Fuck!" "Are you out of your mind?" " I'm sorry." "Cyrielle..." "It's not serious." "I was pretending." "I was imitating your Dad." "At first, it was pretty good..." "When I toke you in my arms and all?" "It was great." "It could have been that way." "But nobody wanted." "They love me so much, they want to keep me here." "Laurent would never do that type of joke." "I know, I'm not Laurent and I don't want to be him." "It's not our fault that you're like that." " Caro!" "'Like that', what does it mean?" "Calm down." "I am calm." "Your sister is sensitive." "Don't get mad at her." "Please." "You're different." "You're a pain." "I'm different from what?" " From everyone." "But you are different too." "Gaetan, Mom, Dad, Cyrielle, everyone is different from everyone." "And it's not a problem." "And you're kind of a pain too..." " Yes, but you are not normal." "Since when?" "What do you mean since when?" "You were always unable to fit in." "What do you mean?" " Don't play innocent!" "You got angry." "You were scared of everything." "We're not going to go back over that now." "That's life!" "That's life..." " Absolutely." "I love you very much, Gaetan." "Do you know why I don't have friends or a job?" "Why I don't have a cell phone?" "You know why?" "Of course we know." "Who would like to be your friend?" "Who would give you a job?" "And what would you do with a cell phone?" "Shut up, you're even going to be a Mom!" "Well, first thing, you're here, at the table, with us." "To watch you in silence, with your surprises and all..." "That's good?" "That's the best we can..." " The best?" "The best?" "The best would be that I have things to tell you." "That you ask me questions and that I am also interested." "That people are happy to see me or wait for me when I'm late." "The best would be someone sitting next to me... whose hand I could hold under the table." "That would need a miracle!" "I am clean." "I talk normally, I walk on my own..." "Calm down, it's OK." " Stop!" "Stop telling me to calm down." "It's unbearable." "Stop!" "Cyrielle, take Nathan to bed." " No, Nathan will stay here." "I won't be angry anymore." "Mom, tell him he can take his trip." "Tell him, I beg you." "Tell him." "No." "I can't." "Not tonight." "I'm sorry." "Come on, tell him." "No, I don't give in like that." "Mom!" " I can't." "I can't, it would be a lie." "What isn't normal is that I'm here with you..." "What you make me go through," "That no one understands me, in my own family." "If we had met elsewhere... we might have gotten on really well." "Because I like you." "I don't know." "It's impossible to say." "Maybe." "So there's a problem here, you agree?" "Are you afraid of me?" "Who are you afraid of?" "Of me?" "Or of the bears?" "The bears won't help you." "I know the bears, they also want to know." "With or without me, you're not happy here." " We don't want to know." "You don't want to know anything." "Because you're afraid too." "That's false." " It's true." "Take my hand." "Touch my arm." "You never sit next to me." "Cyrielle..." "When the bears visit you, in your house, without me... are you afraid or not?" "I'm not always at ease." "That's normal." " Yes." "It's normal." "It's sad, we did everything so you would feel at home with us." "Laurent will be disappointed to hear that..." "He already knows." "We talk." "I'm sorry, it's true that I don't always feel at ease." "Maybe it's my fault." "Cyrielle, something is going to your head." "Don't aim at the wrong target." "Cedric is lucky to have the family he has." "All this devotion." "Things could have been much worse." "What are you doing?" " Cedric, give him his glass back!" "It's difficult for you." "You look strange." "I didn't keep you from drinking very long." "Just three times, but you didn't understand." "Now you do." "It's my fault." "So now you're reassured, but you're angry too." "Against me?" " Yes." "Why did you do that?" " Wait." "If I did that at each meal, for years, with devotion... you'd become crazy, wouldn't you?" " Stop!" "Alain!" "Yes, you would have become crazy." "In the end, yes." " No, I'm not crazy." "Not yet, but you would have become crazy." "I'm not crazy!" "Yes, you don't have the choice." "I'm not crazy!" "But yes, you're starting to get a little crazy." "I'm not crazy!" "Stop, you're disgusting!" " I'm not crazy!" "Mom!" " I'm not crazy!" "I'm not crazy!" "I'm not crazy!" " Nathan, you're not crazy!" "You see?" " I'm not crazy!" "I'm not crazy!" "I'm not..." "Cyrielle, take him upstairs." "I'm coming with you." "Cheers, Nathan." "Have a good night sleep now." "At last." "Just amongst us." "Family." "That hatred..." "It's quite normal." "I kept him from drinking all evening." "What did we do to you, Cedric?" "Remember the times when there was no place for me at the table?" "You were punished." "And all these outings without me so you could get some peace?" "You didn't want to go out." "You were afraid." "A child who doesn't want to go out?" " It's possible." "And all the nights when I was screaming in bed?" "Do you remember'?" "Where were you?" " I was there." "You let me scream." "I was screaming because I was calling for help." "I was scared." "You were screaming like a mad man." "Because I felt pain." "All over." "I was too young." "We were both too young." "But you will be a Mom now, so think of all that as a Mom." "But it's not my fault." "I never did anything to you." "No." "Not anything." "If I wasn't interested in you, I wouldn't be here, coping with you," "Trying to understand you." " You're not trying to understand." "You're not trying to understand that something terrible is rumbling here... in the bear's house." "And it's quite normal, because as usual, you prefer to go home... with your two fetuses and your little hanging garden." "Thus I tell you:" "Something terrible is rumbling here in the bear's cave." "But you'll go home, and it's quite normal." "That's what you were taught." "And you were loyal." "And you were often rewarded for that." "And it's quite normal." "But on our side, we'll go further." "I brought you the guide because I want you to take your trip." "That's really nice of you, but we already had your guide." "Same edition, same number of pages." "All the same." "I don't know what's going on here, and I don't want to know." "Ask Dad." "Cédric..." "He's been worn out." "But you've done nothing wrong yet." "You can still forgive yourself." "I don't understand what you're saying." "I've always called for help, Caro." "Always." "But I can't stop living." "Maybe I had more luck than you, but I can't blame myself for that." "Should I've announced the news at the restaurant?" "Without you?" "Since I am such a bad person and you can't stand anyone." "Why do you always stumble over things that way?" "Cedric..." "Couldn't you at least leave me that?" "You had all the attention you wanted." "But you aren't even capable of seeing that!" "The day I'm pregnant, I can't even announce it normally to my family." "Stop talking about it all the time." "Stop." "If you continue like this, you'll lose it." "I know." "You're bleeding." "But Dad!" "Don't you understand he's doing this on purpose?" "I'm talking and you can't even listen to me!" "Oh fuck, I can't take it anymore!" "Auf Wiedersehen, my little Consolation." "I have a hard time too sometimes." "Mostly with Alain." "He blew me off like shit when playing billiards." "I swear, I feel like I'm six years old when I'm with him." "Such loneliness..." "Oh fuck, I'm starving." " Me too." "Happy with yourself?" "What do you really want in the end?" "Apologies." "I'll let you deal with this." "Where are you going?" "Mom!" "Come back!" "Mom!" "You can't do this to me anymore!" "You can't walk off like that!" "I want an apology!" "NOW!" "It's too difficult, I can't do it anymore." "Yes you can, you're incredibly brave!" "He pushes me too far." "After all these sacrifices, it's hard not to have a little gratitude." "Never." "We've tried everything, really." " I know." "But there's also me, and Laurent." "We're lucky to have parents like you." " I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry that we have to experience this." "Never forget that I love you Mom." "I'm proud to be your daughter." "Laurent, you frightened me!" "I'm not done yet!" "You ran away from me, but I won't kill myself!" "Not at all!" "I'll stay here, a long time!" "And you can keep on whining!" "I'll explode if you don't come back!" "Mom!" "Mom!" "I am the one who should be crying my eyes out days and nights." "But no!" "I won't stop, till you understand." "I'll make you understand, and then you will have good reasons to cry about." "I will teach you things." "Things that will hurt you!" "With more fury, if you'd like!" "If I'm holding myself back, it's for you!" "You think we're different, but we're the same!" "The same!" "Cedric..." "Forgive me." "Here you are!" "It's about time!" "Everyone was waiting for you." "You have to calm down, Cedric." "Where were you anyway?" "Why didn't you answer?" "Poor Cyrielle..." "My Edelweiss." "Don't start..." "Come here." "Cedric." "No scenes." "Where the hell do you come from?" "I'm not done!" "I'm going to kick your ass!" "Tell me you love me and I'll go up on my own." "Calm down now!" "Calm down!" "You take him up to his room?" "Laurent?" "What happened?" " Nothing, we're just putting him to bed." "There you are." "How did it go with Nathan?" " He fell asleep right away." "And how are you?" " I'm fine." "You don't need any help?" " No, thanks, Laurent is here." "Maybe you can get Caro, we're going to set up a table." "The straps." "Good old Laurent..." "There..." "You're not coming down?" "In a few minutes, I'll stay here with him a little." "You'll be OK?" "You don't want to tell me how you got out earlier?" "Who knows?" "You're not going to get the apology you asked for." "In my soul, I know that I did what I had to." "At least what I could." "I don't feel responsible for anything." "Except giving birth to you." "And I don't feel guilty for that." "The choices we made imposed themselves on us." "That's all." "And I'll never feel guilty for anything whatsoever." "However, on nights like this, do you know what I feel?" "Disgust" "I'm disgusted." "It's sad, isn't it?" "I find it sad that we've reached this point." "Nathan, what are you doing here?" "Go back to bed." "I'm not tired." "With little eyes like that?" "Let's go." "To bed now." "Next to the bunny rabbit." "The pillow fell, we'll put it back." "And the bunny will sleep on the pillow too." "You're OK?" "There, you are going to fall asleep in no time." "Good night." "Good night, little bunny rabbit." "Sleep well." "I don't know what happened to the affection I had for you." "I think I don't have any left." "It's gone." "Like the share of my motherhood joy that you stole away from me, my Cedric." "That sounds like a blame." "But I prefer to be honest with you from now on." "So, I am going to finish your education." "Alone." "Until the end." "That's my burden." "I'll go on since I can't leave you and you can't do anymore without me." "Both of us are going to have to be very patient." "With time, I hope I won't have to worry anymore." "Maybe you will realize at what point... more than the others... you were the focus of special attention." "And overwhelming love." "That day, who knows, maybe we'll both smile again." "Tomorrow, if you want, we'll ask your father to take it down." "I'm going to join the others, try to fall asleep quickly." "I never sleep." "Margret..." "You're fine?" " Yes, he finally calmed down." "Can I hug you now?" "Oh yes!" "Are you OK?" " Better." "You look nice like that." "It's beautiful." "And this little thing is in your belly, right now?" "Come here, you." "Congratulations!" "It's going to be a beautiful baby." " Thank you." "Congratulations." " Thanks." "You realize problems are only starting?" " Oh yes..." "Because she is going to be impossible." "You should get ready." " Yes, but how?" "A couple simple moves, I'll teach you." " How vulgar!" "Hey, you're dirty minded!" "I want to have a drink!" " See, it's starting already!" "You'll have to be reasonable." " She can have a glass with us." "Yes." " OK, but it's the last one." "Sold?" " Sold." "You're on a slippery slope, buddy." " Bastard!" "Aren't those two trying to compete with us?" "Shouldn't we slowly get back to it?" "Yes!" "Champagne!" "I've got my eye on you." "Having a jolt of family leader'?" " Caro..." "You're going to have to get used to it." " I can't wait to see." "Gaetan, please go ahead." "Thanks." "Well, it isn't easy!" "Of course, it makes you laugh..." "Take that." "We're not going to crack it open?" "Here we are!" "Can I serve you?" "Calm down." "Cedric." "You know what they did before... with pupils who couldn't stand school anymore... and who would get in huge anger fits?" "Their teachers would bring them to a field filled with weeds." "Hundreds of acres of weeds." "They had to remove all of them... and couldn't stop until they had calmed down." "Stop." "Of course, in the beginning, that only made them angrier." "It was like humiliation." "But with time, a strange phenomenon took place." "The weeds, on which they were focusing their anger... became little by little, the object of a new tenderness." "Cedric..." "Listen to me carefully." "It's important." "Little by little, the weeds became something they cherished, something they cared for more than everything else." "And finally, in the end... it was as difficult to pull them away from this task... as it had been to get them to do it." "Do you understand?" "Do you understand what all this means?" ","
