" Tell me about the killer." " Julie-Berthe..." " Tell me." " But you'll go to sleep after..." " Promise?" " Sure." "Imagine a huge, desert city." "Abandoned cars everywhere." "A woman, alone, lost on a construction site." " Who's the lone woman?" " She's the architect's widow." " Is the widow beautiful?" " Yes, very beautiful." " Like Mommy?" " Like Mommy, yes." " She's afraid?" " Yes." " Why?" " Billy wants to k- word all the women." "He doesn't want to play tobozo?" "Julie-Berthe, I already told you not to speak of that." "Don't get angry, go on." " How is Billy?" " Savage." " What's Billy doing?" " Nothing." "He breathes." " A snake's breathing." "And suddenly..." " What?" " Suddenly he screams: ultimatum!" " Damn!" "She's done for." "Don't worry, honey." "Your dad is here." "You're going to k-word Billy?" "Look out!" "No, Billy." "No, Billy, no!" " Did you k-word him?" " I disarmed him." " Why?" " Billy-ze-Kick never dies." "Sleep now." "I'll tell you what's next tomorrow." " I'm afraid." " Don't worry, Honey, your father is the greatest cop in France." "And a first class sharpshooter." " Did you never miss?" " Never." "Sweetheart?" "Don't you think you're overdoing the Billy-ze-Kick angle, a little?" "It lulls the kid to sleep." "What's for dinner?" "I made thin pancakes with cheese and spinach." "Frozen food again." " The kid likes it." " We never eat cooked food anymore." "Look who's talking." "You're not the one who spends her life over her cooker." "You've got nothing else to do." "What did you do this afternoon?" " I defrosted the fridge." " I phoned and you weren't here." " You probably didn't insist." " You're home late, Detective." " Your report, Mrs Achere." " Nothing to report." " Corridor, elevator, cellar, NTR." " All right, I got it:" "NTR." "Oh, yes!" "Your wife went to the hairdresser's." "Oh, yes, I went to the hairdresser's." "Do you like my new face?" "What about hitting the sack?" "It's both burnt and uncooked." "What I need is a good crime." "Nothing ever happens here." "To think that I dreamed of becoming famous, a star, another Juliette." "And I left Angoulême to marry a cop who's just good to chase moped thieves." "I need something really bloody." "I think I'll start singing again." "There might be a spot at the Roxy." "Do you love me?" "Julie-Berthe, go back to sleep." "Daddy and Mommy are going to play tobozo." "That's fine, but I'm not fully grown yet." "So you spent the afternoon defrosting the fridge?" "Put that away." "I don't like it when your hands are cold." " Aren't you ashamed, Chapeau?" " Mmm?" "Don't you read Shakespeare, Chapeau?" " Shakespeare?" "No, I'm sorry." " Don't you read the papers, Chapeau?" "Sports, mainly." " Do you turn the pages wearing boxing gloves?" " No, why?" "Chapeau, little old ladies are meant to be murdered, not arrested." "Caught in the act." "Shoplifting." "Canned sardines." "Chapeau, did you see "Les Misérables" on telly?" "No, I was on duty." "Do you know why they send Lino Ventura to the penal colony in "Les Misérables"?" "He's sent to the penal colony because he stole a loaf of bread." "Do you want to send Mrs Boutillon to the penal colony because she stole a can of sardines?" " She's not Lino Ventura." " She could be his mother." "Listen Chapeau, you know that I've got an obnoxious personality." "Yes... no!" "Well, it all depends, commissioner." "Free the meek people of France." "The cashier at the supermarket gave him a box of toffees." " English ones." "That's bribery." " Is that true, Chapeau?" " Yes." " Let me see." " Quality Streets." " It's for Julie-Berthe." "Confiscated." " Hello, my dear commissioner." " I can't see you now, my dear friend." " I'm flying over to Belfast." " Won't you take me?" " Sorry, it's impossible." " You promised, you big polyglot." "Baby, please..." "I'll remember that." "Goodbye, commissioner." "Have fun." "You know me, commissioner." "You won't be alone, Peggy, I'll call you." "Your plane leaves in 40 minutes, commissioner." " Chapeau!" " Me?" "Hurry up." "Sit down." "In my absence, as senior detective, Detective Chapeau will replace me." "Cordier will second you." "Commissioner?" "Your taxi has arrived." "Now that you're the boss, don't take advantage of it and arrest all the little old people you meet." "Rather try and catch the schizo guy your daughter is seeing." "Hippo escaped from the asylum again?" "Hey, this is not the way to Roissy, what the hell are you doing?" "Don't worry, commissioner." "I took the machine out again in order to oblige a colleague." "I know the area better than anyone." "You're the old man who's going to be evicted?" "Since the Spanish War, nobody ever evicted me." "I told you the old man would refuse to split." "We'll have to use force." "Force?" "You're behind the times, old boy." "Mr Chief of Police, may I?" "We have to communicate." "Well, go on, Baboulin." "Jean-François Baboulin." "Intercontinental Council of Town Planning." "Mr Alcide!" "I'd be delighted to meet you." "Out you go, you undertakers!" "Jean-François Baboulin." "Intercontinental Council of..." "Do you like me to put my stockings on in front of you?" "You're lovely, doll." "Only you understand me." "All other men are always sniffing at me, stripping me with their eyes, taking me in their thoughts..." "Oh, they don't say anything but..." "I can't fail to see what they're thinking of." "You're lovely, doll." "You've got beautiful eyes." "I'll wait again, for ten years if necessary, but I'd rather save myself, keep myself intact for the one who will deserve me." "I am a happy little girl." "I have only one flaw:" "I'm obsessed." "Obsessed with tobozo." "Daddy says so." "He told me off enough." "At the time, I cried." "But I must admit he's right." "I can't help it. fannies, willies, I must see them." "I must eye them." "Some like it, some don't." "So I hide and I spy." "I hide and I wait." "Sometimes for hours." "But I get them all." "Only one resists me." "One that I'd like to see because I find it intriguing." "Miss Peggy's." "The star of the night club." "I'll see it." "That's for sure." "I'll see it." "Or my name isn't Julie-Berthe." "I'm lending you this for the wedding." "You'll be gorgeous." "I've got her this time." "I'm going to see miss Peggy's fanny." "Aren't you afraid that it's somewhat too... too obscene." "You're lovely, doll." "You've got beautiful eyes." "Since my friend went away, I sometimes feel lonely." "You can understand that, can't you?" "As a woman?" " And he left you all of this?" " All the junk, including weapons." " No, men, really!" " I'm off." "I have to change my clothes." "I don't want to be late for the wedding." "About your uniform, have a care:" "the "fourragère" is worn on the left." "One day, I'll have to kill someone to see how it feels." "Bang." "You're dead." " Thank you, that was great." " OK, see you tomorrow. 5 pm sharp." " I'll receive you just before the caretaker." " Mrs Achere?" "Stop it:" "I'm jealous." "It won't do." "You mustn't be selfish about tobozo." "Now split." "See you at the wedding." "Ed!" "Damn kid, never here when you need him." " They say you escaped from the asylum?" " I didn't like it there." "And the day nurse didn't like my music." "And, most of all, her breast was too heavy." "Too heavy." "I couldn't stand it." " Did they give you shots?" " Yes." "A lot." " Did you cry?" " No." "Schizos don't cry." "Beware, Hippo." "The cops will k- word you if you act too clever." "Don't worry, Billy, they'll never get you." "Oh, please, I got it all:" "I know Hippo is Billy." "You don't have to lie to me." "I'm discreet." "Yes. discretion" "OK, chief." "I like you being enigmatic." " When we're married, you'll have to buy me a golden ring." "Yes." " With a black diamond." " I'll give you a big yellow dog." "I also want a real bloody crime." " And English toffees?" " Yes." " We'll live in a tree." " Yes." "In a tree in the summer." "In the cellar in the winter." "In an elevator in-between." " Commissioner Bellanger?" " Detective Chapeau." "His replacement:" "Bellanger is in Belfast." "We must evict him." "We're not going to lose billions because of a grumpy old man." "Do you know how much a model like this is worth?" "Twice the price of his house." "I'm relying on you, detective Chameau (camel)." "Chapeau (hat)." "So the Chief of police told me:" "Chapeau, I'm relying on you." "So I'm going to the wedding, but after that..." "If you think by caring about old men and loonies, you'll become commissioner." " What about Julie-Berthe?" "Where is she?" " She went ahead." "Do you know Mrs Chapeau has a great behind?" "I would easily make space for her on my dance card." "Good old Eugène." "Always obsessed with tobozo." "Come, let's take the stairs." "OK, I've got to go to the wedding now." " Hadn't you rather stay with us?" " No." "It wouldn't be proper." "If you're Billy-ze-Kick, kill someone for me, will you?" "Edwige, Jean-Jacques, beyond your union, symbolizing the union of small stores and supermarkets, we can see the birth of a new hope for the fruits of which we'll be watching." "Don't forget the words of Saint Paul:" ""Let the husband do his duty toward his wife and equally the wife toward her husband "." "Don't refuse yourself to one another, or just by mutual agreement, for a time, to devote yourself to prayer, then resume your life as a couple lest Satan, in order to tempt you, takes advantage of your incontinence." "I'll have things to tell you, Detective." "Meet me after the wedding, in the rest rooms at the hotel." "Till then, vigilance." "There's going to be a murder." "I can feel it." "I'm filming it all." "Nothing in the church escapes me." "Look at these two." "They're not getting married for the sake of the sacrament of marriage." "They're getting married for the sake of tobozo." " Do I play tobozo, detective, I ask you?" " You're an unusual woman, Mrs Achere." "Look, Julie-Berthe." "Don't stay here." " But what's going on?" " Let me through." " Where were you." "Everybody's looking for you." " I was here!" "Come on, step aside, step aside," "No one leaves the square before the Police arrive." "Step aside." "I phoned the police station, detective." " They'll be here in two minutes." " Good." " Edwige has been k-worded." " Vigilance." " What's this?" " A mother-in-law tongue." "Blow." "There's something written on it." "K- worded, old girl." "BzK." "Billy-ze-Kick?" "Now you've got your bloody crime, honey." "You'll be made a commissioner." " But Billy doesn't exist." " Obviously he does, since he kills." "Detective." "What shall we do with the witnesses?" "Gather them." "I'll interrogate them at the hotel." "Good idea, Detective." "Since the banquet is paid for, we just have to sit down at the table." "All right, follow me." "Come on, follow me." " What are you waiting for?" " I'm sticking with you, honey." "I want to be there when you arrest Billy." "No, I need to be alone and..." "you don't know Billy." "Will you come with us, Mrs Chapeau?" "But what if you're wounded?" "Who will be your little nurse?" " Juju?" "Would you make me really happy?" " Anything, honey." "Tonight, I'd like to eat a hot meal." "A real cabbage stew, something well cooked, just like the one your mother made for Christmas." "Dad, you're a boor." "You'll never understand women." "Haven't you seen Mrs Chapeau." "Everybody's looking for her." " She disappeared." " Discretion." "Billy is going to k-word all women." "It's going to be bloody." "Where's your mother?" "She was supposed to sing during the wedding." " So what?" " So she's singing." "You're my little Billy." "I'm your little mousy." "I bring you my heart, cover me in my nights." "You came in my life, you came in my heart" "You really are a rocker, bang, bang, rockabilly." "Billy, Billy, Billy rock:" "I'm counting until 700 o'clock" "Big Mac, Big Mac of love" "Every night, every night, in the stove," "Billy, Billy, Billy rock, Let Old Nick eat my socks." "Big Mac, Big Mac of love You are, you are, the one I love." "When I listen to music, Day or night I'm dying," "I become an hysteric, Get your things, ding-a-ling." "Yeah." "You are my little Billy." "Come on, take me quick." "A gun, a knife, kill me Billy-ze-kick." "Yeah." "Strange." "You're not in the picture." "Where are you coming from." "I looked for you everywhere." "Confiscated." "Can you see?" "That's him." "Detective Chapeau." " Detective." "A statement?" " Blow." "Billy-ze-Kick." "The murderer is called Billy-ze-Kick." "I repeat:" "Hippo the schizo did it." "The murderer, of course I saw him." "A red-haired man, a big man, with something strange in his look, if you see what I mean." "The perv kind." "He was dark haired, and squat, a little bit like you, Detective, but with spectacles, and he smiled, that's what struck me, yes he smiled, dark-haired." "I didn't have the time to scream and I saw a bald pate." "This way, Detective." "I'm sure she saw Billy." "I didn't see a thing." "But it's just as if I saw him, that kind of guy, you recognize them easily." "Yes, a suit, a tie, very proper." "He looked so cold that he was frightening." "As you can see, all the testimonies are consistent." "Hippo the schizo did it." "No, no, I assure you, it wasn't the sun, he was an albino." "The North African type, with an oriental face." "A very dark face, like a Turk." "But a Germanic Turk with blue eyes." "You, Cordier, with them, this way." "We go that way." "We're going to catch Hippo." "Hippo?" "I'll k-word him." "I'll k-word him." "Stop!" "Hippo, I saw you." "There." "He's coming your way!" "Stop him!" "He's going in the cellars." "Freeze." " Get down." " Come and get me." "Don't be a fool." "You're going to fall down." " What should I do?" " Be savage." "Shoot him." " Surrender." "It's over for you." " Shut your trap, Detective," "I'm going to fly." "This is an ultimatum." "Come down or I shoot you." "Ultimatum." " Hello, Alcide." " Hello, Julie-Berthe." "How pretty you are today." " Is the soup ready?" " Almost." "Are you hungry?" "Yes." " Do you want me to play something for you?" " Gladly." " What should I play?" " Play the tune I taught you." " Eat while it's hot." " Yum." "Alphabet pasta." "I love it." "Do you know I received the myricoid terodendrons" "I ordered for the hothouse." "Red flowers are beautiful." "Oh, no." "Myricoids have blue leaves." "Anetums have red leaves and blue fruits." "Just look in "Tropical plants" on page 68." "I'm not sure about that." "I'll have to check." "Surrender, Hippo!" "Surrender, Hippo." "Surrender, Billy, you can't make it." "Billy-ze-Kick never dies." "Hippo!" "Come down." "Will you step aside!" "We'll catch him from inside." "Ultimatum!" " Do you know what?" " No." "Billy k-worded the bride." "Edwige, the grocer's daughter." " I'm not surprised." " Now he's going to kill all women." "No only that, he's going to blow everything up." "People will talk about him, mark my words." "Is he going to k-word the city hall undertakers?" "Billy will go on a rampage." "Will Daddy catch him?" "He won't catch him." "No one will catch Billy." "Billy is invincible." " Do you know him?" " Oh, yes, quite well." " How is he?" " He's more or less the way you want him to be." "For some, he's handsome, tall and dark-haired." "For others, he's old and grumpy." "For others still, he's neither handsome nor ugly, neither young nor old, just invisible to the naked eye." "Beige, if you prefer." " But he's cruel, isn't he?" " Savage." "I knew this would be useful one day." " What game are we playing?" " Dynamite." "Billy k-worded the bride." "And it's not over." "Be careful, don't open the door or everything will be blown up." "Oh?" "Are you planning a practical joke?" "It's going to explode, just wait and see." "Julie-Berthe." "I'm going away." "I have to." "I give you my potted azaleas, you know, the ones you like so much." "You're nice." "There will be something more but you'll learn about it later." " I ask no questions." " All right, go now." "Go through the hothouse, take the azaleas, go home and stay there." " The rose azaleas?" " Yes, they're the most beautiful." " Can you remember my poem?" " Yes." "We are on a double-role of two sick persons who treat themselves but fail to get better." " Kiss me." " Here you are." "A peck on the mouth." "He's armed." "And I should know." "Baboulin." "We must communicate." "Oh, that's smart." "I would have liked to see you in my place." "Damn!" "What can the commissioner be doing?" "Chameau." "Detective Chapeau." "Oh, yes:" "Chapeau." "Since when do they hire midgets in the Police?" "Come on, take him away." "Come on, come on." "I think I can safely say that no one knew Billy-ze-Kick as well as I did." "Since our first encounter, we knew one of us had to be the winner." "Well, I'm the winner:" "I arrested Billy-ze-Kick." "Public safety is now insured for a long time." "Oh, Mrs Chapeau." "Oh, Mrs Chapeau!" "Oh, stop calling me Mrs Chapeau, you're giving me the blues." " Call me Juju." " Oh, yes, Juju." "Oh, yes, Juju." "Oh!" "Oh, my Juju, my Juju, my Juju..." "This is Tosca, this is Rigoletto." "This is the great aria from La Bohème." "Haven't you ever dreamed of being something else?" "Yes, of course, every night at the opera, I was something else." "I'd really like to be a star, a big star, a goddess." " Become a legend." " Billy-ze-Kick?" " Yes." " Yes." "Hey, a beastie." "Get lost or I k-word you." "Ultimatum." "K- worded, old girl." "Va-ve-vi-zou-zoum, va-ve-vi-zou-zoum," "I like candies and English toffees, I like fannies and willies too," "Va-ve-vi-zou-zoum, va-ve-vi-zou-zoum," "I like my Mommy, I like my Daddy, but the one I love is Billy-ze-Kick." " What are you doing here?" " There's no one home." "I'm waiting for my folks." "Your Mommy is still at the wedding." "Four letters word!" "How I need to pee." " Do you want to come in my home?" " Yes, please." "I can't hold it anymore." " But no treachery between girls." "You promise?" " I swear." " Do you know that I'm engaged?" " To Alcide?" " No, to Hippo the Schizo." " My God, Julie-Berthe, you're frightening me." "You're really precocious for your age." "It's true about men." "About the rest, I'm really not." " Does your fiancé spoil you?" " Yes." "A little." "Toffees." "Smoochies." "I think I'll get a tree and an elevator." " An elevator?" " Yes." "And we also talked about having a yellow cat." "A savage one." "How fascinating." " Do you know Billy-ze-Kick?" " The bride's killer?" "Yes." "He's my friend." "He does everything that I ask." "If I say "kill", he kills." "Could you replay the hauling into the ambulance, it's for Paris-Match" "I'll be glad to." "Come on, come on, come on." "What's the matter?" "What's the matter?" "Why on Earth are you excited like this?" "I know the name of the bride's killer." "It's... it's..." "Why should I give a shit?" "Julie-Berthe was right:" "myricoid terodendrons have blue flowers and black fruits." "But anetum terodendrons have red leaves and blue fruits." "Time for me to go." "Do you like me?" "Do you want to see me naked?" "Take off my clothes." "Bunch of sods." "Do you know how much every wasted minute is worth?" "The bastard is dangerous:" "he fired at me." "This is Fort Chabrol." "Do you want to talk to him?" "Go on:" "I'll cover you." "Alcide, can you hear me?" "Don't try to oppose the Republican order." "I'm warning you:" "No pasaran." "If you value your boss' life." " Bellanger is in Belfast." " He's in my cellar." "If you want to see him alive, get lost!" " Quick." " He's gone mad." "The chief is getting impatient." "If you're not up to it, we'll call a SWAT team." "Alcide!" "This is an ultimatum." "For the last time: come down without making a fuss." "Ultimatum my arse!" "I never could stomach cops, a bunch of motherfuckers." "I always thought you couldn't talk with them." "They'll see." "Did you see my beauty mark." "Won't you take off your clothes?" "You didn't even tell me your name." "Cordier, you look ridiculous." " This is Mururoa." " Any wounded persons?" " Yes, Detective." " The workers?" " Ad patres." " The bulldozers?" " Vitrified." " Alcide?" "I don't know." "I don't want to sound pessimistic but I'm starting to worry." " Bellanger?" " We must assume the worst." "Better take a look." "Alcide!" "We're ready to talk." "Come on, open up." "I want to talk to you." " Do you remember my poem?" " Yes." "We are on the noble road of two sick persons who treat themselves but fail to get better." "Shit!" "My ear." "I lost my ear." "Have a care!" "You'll step on it." "Ultimatum!" "Commissioner Bellanger." "Oh, you look at the cupboard." "I'm going to explain." "I'm not trying at all to hide a murder, no, no, no, I'm just trying to buy time." "The girl is dead anyway." "Can you understand?" "I thought Billy was Hippo the Schizo, but he can't possibly have k- worded this one, no, because I arrested the Schizo earlier today." "Damn!" "It's Cordier's fault if I'm in a jam." "Are you OK, commissioner?" "You look tired." "It's jet lag." "Oh, commissioner, if I can't arrest the real Billy before the Evening News, I'm out of a job." "I ask you for two hours." "Just two hours." "After that, you can expose what's in the cupboard." "Thank you." "Oh, thank you, this is really nice of you." "I won't forget it." "Thank you." " Mrs Achère?" " Yes, chief." "Take off your clothes." "Quick!" "No, not so fast, Detective." "Not here." "Someone might see us." "Oh, I like your temper." " Your thrust is intimidating but..." " Take off your clothes." "I'm not opposed to a measure of brutality in a man." "A roughness." "The man must be a man for the woman to be a woman." "Stop talking bullshit and give me your clothes, hurry!" "In the end, admit it, you're a pervert, Detective." "You're aroused when murders occur." "You like it." " So do I." " Put these on." "Would you like me to film you naked, Detective?" "Listen closely." "Billy k-words all women." "So I'll dress as a woman to attract him and, bang, I'll arrest him." "That is machiavellian, Detective Chapeau." "We must find the bridesmaid before he k-words her." "Which one?" "The blonde or the red head?" "The red head." "Oh, that one." "Such a sexual arrogance." "She's not a woman, she's tobozo on two legs." "Disgusting." "A Ricard" "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen." "The management of the Roxy is happy and proud to present, in exclusivity, the extraordinary, the unforgettable, the divine Miss Peggy." "Who are who are who are you?" "Who is who is who is me?" "I don't know what I have seen, I don't know what I'm seeing." "The ones are the others, the others are the ones, who looks for the sun gets to meet the moon, who looks for his lookalike gets to meet his soul mate, love is a man and the man isn't I." "Who are who are who are you?" "Who is who is who is me?" "I don't know what I have seen, I don't know what I'm seeing." "Who are who are who are you?" "Who is who is who is she?" "We don't know what we have seen: a male, a female." "The lion is a lioness, the lioness a dragon." "Who looks for a petticoat gets to meet a she-dragon, who looks for the boss gets to meet the she-boss, love is a woman, and the woman isn't I." "Who are who are who are you?" "Who is who is who is me?" "I don't know what I have seen, I don't know what I'm seeing." "Who are who are who are you?" "Who is who is who is she?" "We don't know what we have seen: a male, a female." "Tell me who you are!" " Good evening, Mr Chapeau." " How did you recognize me?" "Even if you were dressed as a bear, I would always know your eyes, Detective." " Oh?" "What's with my eyes?" " They're burning me." " You're so strong, Detective." " Call me Roger." "Roger." "Oh, Miss Peggy." "Miss Peggy, I..." " Clovis, you're just a pig." " What are you doing here?" "What about you?" "Are you cross-dressing now?" " I'm investigating." " A strange way of investigating." " A modern way." " You won't get Billy this way." " Is your father called Clovis?" " Yes, but he doesn't brag about it." " What about Roger?" " It's bluff." " What did you do all day long?" " I went to see Alcide." " Did he give you the potted flowers?" " Yes, just before he went away." " Before he went away?" " He told me he would go somewhere." "He also told me that he saw Billy-ze-Kick." "Julie-Berthe, you must tell me to whom you talked about Billy." "It's not a game anymore." "Some nutcase thinks he's Billy now." "Everyone knows Billy." "I talked about him to a lot of people." " Did you tell Ed?" " Yes." " And did Ed tell Eugene?" " Of course he did." " Does Eugene have a shotgun?" " He's got a big revolver." " I saw it." " You saw it?" "Yes, he showed it to me." " When?" " One day." " Wasn't I supposed to talk about Billy?" " No, you shouldn't have." " But why?" " Because it was a story." "A story between us." "Between you and me." "A bedtime story for you." " I shouldn't have believed it?" " No." "And now I'm in a jam." "But I always believed it." "Especially now." "Why now?" "First because he kills, then because he wrote me a letter." " He wrote to you?" " Yes, yes, no later than this afternoon." "Dear Julie-Berthe, I'm near you everywhere and nowhere." "I watch you when you sleep, I'm ready to obey you, just say the word and I'll execute your orders." "Just show me whom you want to kill and, you'll see, it will be done." "Your devoted Billy-ze-Kick." " Where did you find it?" " In the potted azaleas." "For the bride, they all were able to do it:" "Hippo, Alcide, Eugene, little Ed and even, why not?" "Miss Peggy." "But for the bridesmaid, it couldn't be Hippo, he was in the ambulance, nor Alcide, nor little Ed, nor miss Peggy since the girl was raped." "Which leaves us with..." "Cordier..." "Position yourself near the Azure Tower." "I'll be there directly." "We're going to arrest Eugene." " Eugene?" "Why?" " Eugene is Billy." " Are you sure?" " Just as I tell you." "OK." "I'm calling the media." "It's useless." "You may arrest them all," " you'll never get Billy." " Why?" "Because, in the story, he's invincible." "Oh no, no, no, please!" "The first one who says one word: twenty push-ups." "He's there, at the end, near a vault." "The king of tobozo is going to see who I am." "OK, go home, hurry up, and tell your mother I'll join you in no time." "Oh, no, four lettered word, I want to see you arrest Billy." "Too dangerous for you." "Go." " Shall we go?" " You shouldn't do this, Clovis." "Because I saw?" "in the street with the biker." "What do you mean you don't know where he is." "The little bastard stole my gun." "No, Mr Eugene, he wasn't even in the church." "He wasn't in the church?" "We thought you'd seen him." "And you weren't in the church either." "Maybe he's at your place, or Julie-Berthe's." "What the hell would he do at Julie-Berthe's?" " He shows her his willie when she asks." " What?" "He shows her his willie when she asks." "OK, I'm warning you." "You won't go to bed before you find him." "Understood?" "Surrender, Eugene, you're surrounded." "Detective Chapeau?" "What's your problem, lady detective?" "Is it carnival?" "Or have you been shortened with a chainsaw?" "Hands up!" "Put them against the wall, your legs apart." "Now look, shorty, just because you're a cop doesn't mean you can talk to me like this." "Don't come nearer or I'll send you one and you'll never want to play tobozo again." "Tell me, pretty little doll, don't you think you'd better try to find my bike?" "You cops are really good when it comes to bug honest citizens, aren't you?" "Shut your trap, Billy." "This time, you're beaten." " Billy?" " Yes, Detective." "Eugene is Billy-ze-Kick." "He's the strongest of them all." "And now, what will you do without your pencil?" "Will you arrest me, chick?" "The little ones, I break." "The tall ones, I fold." "Billy is knocked out." "Gentlemen, I'm going to bed." "Confiscated." " Oh, oh." "Forbidden, don't touch." " Come on, baby, come." "A happy policeman stands before you." "Is that why you walk about in your shorts?" "Yes, I'll explain that." "Is the kid sleeping?" "No, she's waiting for her story." "There's no more stories." "I arrested Billy." "Alas poor Hippo." "This won't make you look any better." "The looney?" "Who told you it was him?" " Wasn't it?" " You'll just have to read the papers." "It was that old fart Alcide, wasn't it?" "Do you know about professional confidentiality?" "Oh, please, we're not going to play riddles, are we?" "Tomorrow." "And what if I do..." "Tonight?" "A custard cake?" "Right now." "So, who was it?" " Eugene?" " What's your trouble?" "If Billy is Eugene, I'm the empress of Russia." " What do you know about it?" " Eugene was at the wedding all day." " I didn't see him at the hotel." " You didn't look in the park." "Why should I have looked in the park?" "I don't know." "Your job is to look everywhere, isn't it?" " And where were you?" " I?" "I sat vigil for the dead girl." "Were you waiting for her to defrost?" "Juliette?" " Can you feel it?" " What?" " Steel is cold." " Curtains!" "No tobozo until Billy-ze-Kick, the real one, is behind bars." "Do you know I had a hard time to come and see you?" "Nothing is impossible to Billy-ze-Kick." "I warn you, Hippo, when I grow up, I'll come home late, like my mother." "I warn you." "I'd rather warn you:" "you'll have to be patient." "I'll be." "I'll wait for you quietly." " We'll own a large, very cozy elevator." " With a fireplace." "Yes." "And I'll be lounging before the fire when you come home." "All right." "You'll have to give me the ring you promised me." "Or I won't love you anymore." "It will be physical, therefore stronger than me." "I'll have one of my men steal it." "Ed." "And don't steal just anything for me, please." "No junk." "The rings in lucky bags are ugly." "They're tat." "I want one like the caretaker has." " Mrs Achère?" " Yes." "Mrs Achère." "Very well." "I'll steal the black diamond her legionnaire gave her." "And don't forget that you promised we'd get a tree for the holidays." "I do not forget." "The tree is now growing in a South-American forest." " What kind of tree?" " I couldn't remember the name." "I had to hire a special gardener." "He waters it three times a day." "Are you sure that you can rely on him?" "Yes, because he's an Indian." "His name is Chino: he keeps his word and is deeply fond of me." "They do respect Billy there." "I have to steal something for you too, or it won't be fair." "Ask me the impossible." "Miss Peggy's hat." " The one with plastic tresses." " Yes, I'll use it as a tiara on our wedding day." "I'll steal it, Hippo." "I spit and swear." "Cross my heart and hope to die." "Ultimatum." "You're losing your feathers, aren't you?" "You had a lot of feathers this morning and now you have none." " Well..." "What did you do all day?" " I stayed home." "Come on." "I phoned and you weren't home." "What about you?" "Did you lose your horse?" "Cordier took it from me." "It's about time that you had more than just a service horse." " When I am sheriff..." " When you're sheriff," "I'll have peacock feathers." "You'll never guess with whom I had lunch today." " With Billy?" " With Paul." " With Paul Newman?" " Yeah." "We went to the Tobozo in order to eat a good cabbage stew." "This is absolutely ridiculous." "Paul Newman never ate any cabbage stew in his westerns." "What do you know about it?" "Heroes are like schizos:" "they do not eat." "Do you know you're a good kisser?" "What about going for a walk?" "Your bike is great." "Will you keep your leather jacket?" "But what are you doing?" "No!" "No, Billy!" "No!" "Hello?" "What?" "Who is this?" "Do you know what I just found in Alcide's cupboard?" " Why the hell did you go there?" " I thought something smelled fishy." "And for this you wake me up in the middle of the night?" "There was a dead girl in the cupboard." " And do you know the best?" " No." "We just found another one in a vacant lot." "Crushed." "Stoned." "Raped." "Oh." "Was it signed?" ""You're all going to die." "Fuck society." "Billy-ze-Kick. "" " Cordier?" " Yeah." "Let Eugene go." "Do you think you'll like it in Las Vegas, miss Peggy?" "I can't take it anymore here." "What will all the murders." "They drive me crazy." "Do you know you have a great bottom, miss Peggy?" "Eugene, take care of my suitcases." "I'll ask you to do a hold-up." " Are you ready to do anything for me?" " Yes." "You're going to steal Mrs Achère's black diamond." "I'll obey you, Billy, but first, I must talk to Julie-Berthe." " Alone?" " Yes." "You can talk in front of Hippo." "We're engaged." " I can't." " Talk." "I can't." "It's very private." "Did you cry?" "Talk and that's an order." " You're asking for it, old girl." " I'm listening." "You're asking for it." "Well your mother is fucking my father." "True?" "True?" "Well, Billy, if you hear me, I'm asking you to k-word my Mommy." "Mr Georges?" "Here's the chick who replaces Miss Peggy." "The boss told me that she must start tonight, just get it done." "All right, good luck, honey." "You'll tell the boss he must be joking." "Such a dog to replace miss Peggy." "She'll never make it." "What do you mean, I'll never make it." "Miss Peggy's leaving is my big chance and I intend to seize it." "So you, faggots, move your arses and you, Chopin, try not to get your fingers tangled." "Come on: music!" "Who are who are who are you?" "Who is who is who is me?" "I don't know what I have seen," "I don't know what I can see." "The ones are the others, the others are the ones, who looks for the sun gets to meet the moon, who looks for his lookalike gets to meet his soul mate, love is a man and the man isn't I." "Who are who are who are you?" "Who is who is who is she?" "We don't know what we have seen:" "a male, a female." " What do you want, kid?" " I've got to talk to you." " OK." "Hey, I didn't tell you to stop, did I?" "Mrs Chapeau." "Eugene ask me to tell you that he's waiting for you in the basement right now." "He's in a hurry." "Try to master your routine." "As for you, Chopin, if you call that playing the piano, you should go back to the conservatoire." "Eugene?" "Eugene?" "Eugene?" "Hippo..." "What are you doing here?" "I'm going to k-word you." "You are shy, Hippo." "Come nearer." "You were mean to scare me." "Come." "Do you have anything against sex?" "Are you a virgin, Hippo?" "Women are obscene." "Women are soft, Hippo." "You are a little boy." "A baby." "No, take your hands off me." "I don't want to be touched." "You fondle my daughter in elevators." "You are obsessed with tobozo." "I never touched Julie-Berthe." "Hippo, I'll come and shower in your home." "I'll let you look when I put on my stockings." "I'll surrender to you on every Wednesday, Hippo." "You won't tell my husband, will you?" "Go fuck yourself." "This is corruption." "I'm schizophrenic, madam, I'm delirious but not a erotomaniac." "Erototo, erototo, my foot!" "Get away from me, you fool." "My wife doesn't want me anymore." "My daughter doesn't either." "I'm afraid to go back to the police station." "You are my only friend." "Aye." "Try to concentrate." "I'm sure you can figure out who Billy-ze-Kick is." "Some cigarettes, boss?" " Billy is... is..." " Billy is?" "A son of a bitch." "Billy is a son of a bitch..." "I know that Billy is a son of a bitch, I'm not asking you that." "What I want to know is his name." "His name?" "Oh, his name." "That's it, commissioner." "Your French is coming back to you." "Come on: don't let go of it." "Billy..." "Billy is a... a..." " A what?" " A..." " a legend." " No more cigarettes." "Confiscated." "It will gather your thoughts." " You look ridiculous, Chapeau." " Shut your trap, Cordier." "They say you're going to be transferred." "You'll see: small towns are beautiful." "You can really breathe there." "You know, I'm in charge of the investigation now." " Bellanger never got to Belfast." " Why the hell should I care?" "I thought you liked commissioner stories." "One day, I'll cut your other ear off, Cordier." "Give my regards to Mrs Achère." "They say that she and you..." "Mrs Achère..." "You're a bastard, Cordier, but you're intelligent." " What?" " The movie, Cordier." "Mrs Achère's movie." "Come on, let's go." "Go yourself." "I don't drive a taxi." " Get in the car." " It's no use." "You're finished, Chapeau." "After the cupboard trick, you might as well be dead." "There are things that you'll never understand, Cordier." "Billy-ze-Kick..." "I invented him." "What do you want?" " I'll strike a deal with you." " What deal." "I've got something to trade against your ring." "You're lovely, doll." "You've got beautiful eyes." "And if I hear you scream, I'll do it again." "My God, even when very little, men have vice in their blood." "Damn..." "Well..." "I want to see the movie." "You big meanie." "I've been waiting for two days." "Put your thing on!" "Do you like seeing me cross-dressed?" "That's me..." "Miss Peggy..." "How about a cup of champagne?" " A little Piper-Heidsick?" " Shut up." " Eugene..." " When you're commissioner, you'll need a woman like me." "Someone who knows how to entertain, someone who knows how to talk to the Chief of Police, to Deputies, how to go down a staircase, make small talk to..." "What the hell is Cordier doing?" "To compose small bunches of Japanese flowers..." "Goddam!" "Juliette!" "I know everything, Chapeau." "I know that you are Billy." "Take me quick." "Kill me, Billy-ze-Kick." "Be savage with me." "Claw at me, bite me, rip me open!" "Always lower, Billy." "I know everything, Billy." "I can see everything, Billy." "Oh, Billy!" "Men!" "K- worded, old girl." "Miss Peggy..." "Miss Peggy, a woman like you can't have tobozo with a man like me." " Oh, no, no, Miss Peggy, no." " I can't find my gloves." "I can't take it anymore." "I can't take it." "I can't." "Miss Peggy has a willie?" "Mademoiselle has a willie!" "I'm sorry, Sir." "Peggy is Billy, Peggy is Billy..." "Four-lettered word!" "Why have you got a willie?" "Have you never seen a man?" "Surrender, Billy." "Don't come closer, Detective, or I bleed her like a pig." "Shut up!" " Let her go, Billy." " Don't you like me anymore, Detective?" " Let her go or I shoot." " Shoot!" "Billy-ze-Kick never dies." " Go on, Dad." "Shoot." "Shoot me." " I can't." "I can't do it." "Aim for my shoulder." "It will hurt but it's not fatal." " I can't." " You never missed." "Drop your gun, Chapeau, or I k-word her." "I never thought he would be able to invent that." "You're lovely, doll." "Call the cavalry!" "Surrender, Billy!" "Come on, follow her down." "Go on, go on, go on." "Hurry up!" "Stop, Billy, you can't make it now." " Chief!" "Chief!" "I found Cordier's ear." " I fucking don't care." "Surround the house, call the press, call the Chief of Police." "Go!" " I'm k-worded, Hippo." " Shut up." " I can't steal Miss Peggy's hat anymore." " Shut up." "I'm going to climb the tree in South America." "Julie-Berthe..." " And see Chino the Indian." " He's waiting for you." "Even if I'm mean and selfish?" "Yes." "You know you can depend on him." "I've got the jewellery, chief." "I'm cured." "I'm going to go near the maniac and try to reason with him." "I think that only I can..." "must do it." "Words are meaningless." "I don't want blood to go on flowing and..." "I'm going for broke." "Roger!" "Roger..." " Billy is cornered." "I'll get him." " Don't go." "He's a maniac." "Too late." "Between Billy and I, it's a matter of life or death." "Think of Julie-Berthe." "I'm thinking of no one but her." "I can't back down anymore." "Every evening, I promise I'll cook a hot meal for you." " I'll..." " Juliette." "I always knew you'd become a star, a big star." "I'll always only be a cop." "Just fit to catch moped thieves." "Don't talk like that, Roger." "You're the greatest cop in France." "You never missed." "If I don't make it, you'll just have to live with Eugene." "Yes." "It will be good for your career." "I'll never leave you, Clovis." "I'll go off the stage for you." "We'll go very far away." "In Texas." "Or in Oklahoma." " Juliette, I have a confession to make." " Don't say anything." " I must." "You have a right to know." " Don't." "Today, I want you to know this:" " I wear lifts in my shoes." " I always knew it." "You'll have to tell everything to Julie-Berthe." "You'll be my witnesses." "Clovis..." "Suddenly, a great silence falls on men." "Detective Roger Chapeau looks like a tightrope walker crossing the circus at a breathtaking height..." "Billy-ze-Kick!" "Surrender!" "Surrender, you are surrounded." "It's over." "Billy." "This is I, Chapeau, I'm coming to see you," "I want to talk to you, just talk." "Yes, Roger Chapeau, the whole of France is behind you, facing the monster, the lunatic, the sex-maniac with an alias out of a Western." "Facing fear." "Peggy, it is I. It's Roger." "Are you here?" "I'm waiting for you, Detective." "Billy!" "Let us arrest you without making a fuss." "There are circumstances..." "Peggy, listen to me, it's I, Bellanger, your big polyglot." "Bellanger, stay out of it." "Billy is mine." "Too late." "We'll never go to Belfast." "I give you two minutes." "Maybe we can make a deal." "Come here, little pig, let me roast you." "You ask for it, Billy." "And, as it is written in the Epistle to the Corinthians:" ""Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who are asleep." "For since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead. "" "Yes, commissioner Bellanger, we'll all live again in our lord Jesus-Christ." "Amen." "Billy..." "And now, brothers, I'll ask you to drop a flower on the coffin of our dear departed before saying goodbye." "How beautiful." "What is it?" "It's a rose azalea." "K- worded, old girl." "Billy-ze-Kick never dies." "Translation:" "Goupil66 April 2012"
