"You're scared, but you have to serve." "Make a big smile, and go ahead." "I don't know, how it works." "I guess it's because of those rollers." "Step aside." "Try it this way." "See ?"

"Many of the president Novales' enemies are soldierlies." "They left the country, when he regained the authority." "Few of them are terrorists hiding in France." "They surely have secret organisation." "Here are some documents from MSZ." "Please take a look." "Did any of them happen to be one your customers ?" "No, mr commisioner." "Such people don't visit my place." "What's going on with you?" "He was supposed to be abducted by the end of the week  at the airport." "Where is he ?" "Huh?" "." " We didn't abduct anybody."

"You know, what I'm talking about." "You had time to think it over." "I'm still thinking..." "Have you made up your mind, or not ?" "Let's talk about it, after we get relaxed."

"You let them run away." "Asshole." "Take away that hysteric." "That's the secretary of president Novales." "Please excuse me." " Enough of this." "Please go catch them." " Whom ?" " That pubber didn't tell you a thing ?" " But...." " Catch the terrorists." " Where are they ?" "Far away." "I've sneezed five times, but you didn't get it." " I didn't understand ?" " Nothing." "That's an insult of the law representative." "We'll put you up for the night." "I don't want to." "I won't survive it." "Leave me alone." "That's an order." "I'm being taken to that box ?" "What a shame!" "I'll complain about that to the Minister tomorrow." "Coming back in a second." "Leave us alone." "How did night meditations pass ?" "I'll be good-willed." "You're free." "Your car's standing before the entrance." " Does that mean, that everything's back in order ?" " Yes." "Terrorists will get rid of you in the first opportunity." "How come ?" "Easy, we'll be watching you." " We're beginning the operation." " No." "You have no choice." "That's your only chance." "What am I supposed to do ?" "Good bye." "Finally." "Hello, Septime." "Do not turn your head away." "Go straight ahead." "Be smart and nice." "We'll go for a short trip." "We'll talk in a calm place." "We'll get back to the topic soon." "Direction:" "Saint-Cloud park." " Did you understand?" " Yes." "Saint Cloud park." "And watch out." "It's about your life." "Please leave." "Can't you see, where you have parked ?" "Please step forward." "Please pretend, as if nothing has happened." "Please check, if there's a terrorist sitting right behind me." "Not this way." "Discretely." "Is there anyone there ?" "You're lucky I'm in a good mood today." "Please leave." "I'm telling you, that he's there and he's trying to kill me." "He's a murderer." "Check it by yourself." "There's noone there." "So he has probably ran away, or he's hiding in the boot." " Oh really?" "So let's check it then." " Oh no." "Oh yes." "Please." " Have you got a gun ?" " Yes, don't worry." " Please watch out." " Easy." "He left." " He's not there." " Noone." " He was talking with me." " He won't anymore." " He's somewhere in the neighbourhood." " Please get back to your home and sleep for a while." " Behind me ?" " No." " Maybe under the car ?" " No." " Thank you." " Please go." " Septime?" " Impossible!" "That was very unsmart." "Don't do it anymore." " Go, and don't turn your head away." " Okay." "Saint Cloud Park." "I'll talk with you there." "Now leave the car, and sit in the back." "We'll have a small chit-chat." "Sit down." "I'm not an invisible man." "Look closer." "I'm behind you." "Put up the newspaper." "See ?" "And now listen." "I didn't make all of this, to give you aunt Marry's recipy." "You'll die, if you don't do what I will tell you to do." "It's easy." "You'll ask for a minister's audience." "The comissioner, the one you already know, will help you." "And then you'll tell them:" "Mr Minister, Gentlemen, President Novales is in our hands." "We didn't abduct him for political reasons." "We're independent and not compromise-admittable group." "Here are our rules:" "If Mr Septime doesn't bring us 200 millions.." "...he will be killed, and president Novales will be shot with the honours of the head of the country." "Political consequences would be catastrophical for France, if its guest would be left in such a dramatic situation." "Mr Septime will receive instructions from us." "He will be informed about the path, while driving." "We will speak again tomorrow at 11am." "So what, my dear?" "Hard candy, isn't it ?" "Indeed, mr." "Minister." "It would be hard, if they killed president Novales." "What about me ?" "Oh yeah, what about him ?" "We must fulfill their requirements." "and you can't betray our trust." " Mr Minister." " More courage, my friend." "Please don't worry." "Everything will be okay." "You'll see." "Will I ?" "Don't think about it." "I'll call you tomorrow, and will hand you the money." "Am I supposed to sneeeze ?" "No." "Please have a long sleep." "You've got to be in a good form tomorrow." " This way?" "." " Yes." "Good night.." "Mr Minister, everything's proceeding smoothly." "That's machiavelic machination." "There's nothing better than expanding good, old rules." "You need a catch to catch the fish." "Just imagine the reaction of kidnappers, after they find out.." "...that someone wants to steal them 200 millions." "They will demask themselves." "They will start following Septime, and that's when we will catch them." "That's risky." "You don't find 200 millions on the street." "Maybe 50 will be enough." "That'd be unserious." "Where will we begin the operation." "Here ?" "In your office." "That was your idea." "I will bring you the whole sum by tomorrow." "Thank you, mr." "Minister." "You will leave the money where they tell you to do so, and please.." " call me." " If I'll be able to." "More courage." "You have to do your duty, and we have to do ours." "But don't tell them to follow me." "You've heard what they had said." "If you follow me, they will kill me at instance." "So will they do with president." "They will kill me anyways..." "Please look straight into my eyes." "Is my word enough for you ?" "Yes." "Whole France's watching you." "If you carry out the task, it will surely pay you off." "No." "Just the same ?" "I promise." "The same colour ?" "Yes." "Have a nice trip." "And what ?" "Septime Satellite is on the orbit, all you have to do is to control him." " What if it fails ?" " We don't risk a thing." "How come ?" "Septime knows, that in order to make an omlette you need to smash an egg." "An omlette worth 200 millions a a Septime." "What a least." " He will be in our sight and voice." " That's a very brave movement." " Could you ?" " Yes." "He's coming." "You'll see it in a moment." "Eleventh." "Presentation." "Septime ?" "Go to the newsstand." "Tell him to circle around it." "Stop." "Pass the newsstand." "Faster." "Even faster." "Stop." "Now go straight ahead." "Stop." "Go to your car." "To your car." "Will you get in, or what ?" "Get in, and wait for orders." "Have a rest, and regain strengths for a long trip." "Okay." "Excuse me." "Not bad." "That's just the beginning." "Everything will proceed nicely and smoothly." "Time to inform the radios and newspapers." "A heroic citizen, our only hope." "Bastards." " They demand a ransom." " Tradition's dying, Captain." "There are no more people ready to risk their lives for honour." "We are them." "We have to regain that ransom for the sack of the case." "We won't return those bastards such a sum." "We've got to be careful." "They are surely tracking Septime." "We will be following him as well." "And at the first opportunity..." "Septime!" "Go towards pass after you pass the tunnel." "Don't reply." "He's coming." "Start." "You will be informed about the place of meeting later on." "Go straight ahead." "Remember, that we're close." "Great." "When they start circling around Septime, they will lead us to the president." "We've got to wait in the shadow." "An accurate and surprising thought, mr." "Comissioner." "We will be going before Septime." "There is no better way of tracking." "Especially if we know where he's going." "We won't lose him for sure." "Let's go." "How long is it going to take ?" "We're following him at the moment." "We'll see, where he'll lead us." "There's snow." "A lot of snow." "The fish caught the catch." "What cars do they have ?" "Cabriolet." "And there's some sort of american car after him." "At the very front Septime." "After him there is a blonde." "Charming." "And after her there's a limousine." "It's bursting in the seams." "Let's begin." "Septime?" "." "Yes ?" "You'll reach Roche Noire pass in three minutes." "You'll pass a village after the paass, and you'll go towards Val D'Isere." "Repeating." "Towards Val D'Isere." "Val d'lsere." "De la Poste Hotel." "Two stars, Sabaugian frog.." "...thighs." "Deer Comber in a hot sauce." "Next stage of the operation." " Welcome, Commisioner." "Everything's ready." " Great." "Garage is at the bottom." "Just don't scare our brave Septime." "Septime, can you hear me ?" "Yes." "You're carrying all our hopes." " Watch out, the road is slippy." " I see.." "In case of a skid, do not brake." "Step on the gas, and turn wheels into reverse direction." "Okay." "Reverse?" "." " What about the "Stop" sign ?" " After it." "Those idiots will destroy everything." "They always emerge when they're not needed." "This wasn't mentioned in the scenario." "If they catch him, it will be over." "What do they want ?" "Tell him to run." "Septime, if they catch you, you will be shooted." "Be a man, and drive faster." "They're now in the back." "Perfect." "Our Septime is great." "I lost them." "There they are once again." "It's over." "What am I supposed to do, if I skid ?" "Break in the reverse direction." "I forgot." "They're coming." "It's over." "Go lower." "Here comes our blonde." "Not bad." "Let's see, if she's hunting for Septime." "Make him drive faster." "Faster, hit the road!" "Faster." "Easy to say." "Faster." "I can't do any faster." " Faster." " I can't." " Faster." " I can't." "She doesn't like the cops." "She must have something to do with this." "And here come our friends." "A real procession." "Don't stop." "Goddamn it." "I've probably lost them." "It's all right now." "What's that ?" "Let's go to the car." "Fast!" "I can't any more." "I've no strength." " Faster." " I can't." "Hurry up!" "There they come." "We can't lose them." "I've saved your life." "I can't stop you." "Why ?" "Because abducters would kill president and you." "That's why I saved you." " Thank you." " Please fasten your seatbelt." "Watch out!" "Faster." "There they are." "We won't lose them now." "Let's go." " They're following us." " Who ?" "Sometimes it's better not to know who." "Faster." "Even faster." "Faster." "We've got to stop them." "Aim at wheels." " Traitors." "I'll tell my people to shoot them." " It's them who's shooting at the moment." "We'll catch them in the valley." "Let's go." "Guess we've got them." "The road's getting better and better." " We've probably lost them." " You think so ?" "Don't move." "Mr. Comissioner!" "What a nice surprise." "Is it after all now ?" " Is it the end ?" " Yes." "Please, follow me." "I can't do it any longer, mr." "Comissioner." "Why did you demand a ransom, if you haven't abducted him ?" " To make them not to take it." " Who's 'them' ?" "Abducters." "I don't know where's president." "I didn't abduct him." " Stubborn one." " I don't know how to make him talk." "All you have to do is to grab his finger and rotate it." "Everyone, but not her." "Do you want to find the president ?" "Some methods are forbidden by our law." "Then why did you make the revolution ?" "Mr. Comissioner." "Can I talk with you for a moment." "It's getting late." "Aren't you tired ?" "I'd like to leave." "Can I take the coat ?" "Are you going with me ?" "You're leaving ?" "At such moment ?" "I'mt ired." "You won't find the restaurant today." "President." "It's about life of people's hero, and you're thinking about a pub." "Both heroes and pubs are needed." "Pubber." "I prefer nordic types." "She called me a pubber." "But it all ended up happily." " Sure thing." " And I took part in it." "Congratulations." "You first." "Talking about congratulations." "Will you talk about it with Minister ?" " About it ?" " Yes." "We'll think about it tonight." "I'll drop in on you for the supper." "In this case I'll prepare rams legs a la Septime." "He'll start talking." "You'll see." "Gentlemen!" "Good bye." "And now let's go to Septime's." "Yes, sir." "Thank you, Emil." "Welcome, mrs Baron." "Welcome, mr." "Minister" " Good day, mr Septime." " Oh my God." " Mrs Baron." "Mr Minister." " Welcome, Mr. Septime" "What is it ?" "We'll make a short trip." " Isn't it the end ?" " By plane." " No." " It is." " No." " Enough of this." "Drive according to what I say." "Straight ahead." "And then turn to the left." "Are we starting everything from the beginning ?" "Let's go." "Now that's too much." "You're wasting your time." "I've nothing to do with it." "Case closed." " Not really." " How come?" "I don't understand." "You'll understand." "Soon." "Don't worry, nobody's gonna hurt you." "Everything will be fine." "You'll see." "I'll see..." "Excuse me ?" "Mr President ?" "I'm so happy, that I see you." "So how is it?" "Are they treating you nicely here ?" "I had never been so happy as I am right now." "I'm free." "Free." "Free, but you're a prisoner." " Of my own." " I don't get it." "I'll tell you then." "There was no abduction." "How come ?" " I abducted myself." " What ?" "Yes, I abducted myself." "It was me, who organised this escape." "Everything began at your restaurant." "I know." "I'm sorry, but I couldn't take it any longer." "I had to escape." "Do you know how the politician's life looks like ?" "Meetings, reports, hypocrisy." "I've had enough of this." "Did you think about the problems, you were going to make me deal with ?" "I was lacking space, clean air, freedom  fishing, birds' songs." "I've finally discovered the beauty of the nature." "And of France." "It's a wonderful country." "I know, but it's stupid." "Before taking power you should know what you want, because that's why you're actually taking it." "To keep it." "If I had known..." "But now it's too late." "I can't leave my restaurant." "That's not, what I want." " That man is a pyramid." " He was the pyramid." " Faithful friend." " And that loving secretary ?" "I'm leaving her to you." " I don't want her." " So don't I." "So ?" "Everything gets boring some day." "Even earthquakes." "We'll have to solve that problem somehow." " Please have a seat." " Thank you." "Holidays passed." "I owe the most beautiful days to you as well." " I can't say that." " That's why I brought you here." "I want to repair all the harms, I've done to you." "How ?" " I'll make you a hero." " A hero ?" "Yes." ""Mr Septime becomes a hero." "Owner of the restaurant saves head of the country.." "...from abducters"." " President has disappeared." " What did you do to him ?" " I don't know!" " You won't fool me for the second time!" "Where is he ?" "Where did you hide him ?" "!" "Music." " I'd like to know ..." " They're playing the national anthem." "No, you can't."
