Get off your ass and help me!

See you tonight.

Ring

- To be honest, I don't see it, sorry.

Make an effort, Axel!

- In any case, I'm going to I'm going to screw up the writing,

you have to be prepared, don't you? Laughs

- Right, who has a solution to propose?

No ?

Anyone?

Tiphaine? - No, Sir.

Sophie?

Yes.

A binomial distribution binomial law

with K equals 5, N equals10, P equals one third.

The binomial coefficient K among N

is worth 252.

OL's chances of winning of winning the championship...

is 0.1365.

Very well.

You'll be nice to learn the theorem

we saw in class last week.

What are you going to do next year ?

- A degree in math, can you do it?

Laughter

- Thank you Axel, for this great moment

maturity. Ring

One last thing, please please.

About Parcoursup,

you need to finalize your wishes.

If you need advice,

come and see me!

And above all, above all...

don't limit yourself!

Good afternoon.

Goodbye.

GO BACK!

- "The new objectives of the commission :

climate protection, non-toxic environment,

local production and short circuits..."

- These are the dimensions of the bays.

I measured them too.

All right: 3 m2 per animal.

So... what percentage of food comes from the farm?

- Uh, I wrote that down somewhere but...

where did I put it?

Yes, I wrote it down there.

35 %.

It's square.

- They're driving me crazy, I swear. swear.

Mom, stop!

It's going to happen this year too.

- We'll never get the subsidy.

And why?

- They just want to screw us.

They work

with major retailers.

They don't give a shit about about us.

Let's wait and see, Laurent.

To see what?

Touching 12,000 bullets with a 400-page dossier?

For their own good conscience?

Goodbye small farms, hello intensive farming.

No, you're mixing everything up.

Aren't you angry?

- You don't care, you have your little studies.

- That's okay, you're not right, Lolo.

- Oh, it's okay! We can have a few laughs in this house, can't we?

Hubbub

No, not lentils!

- Sophie? - Yes?

I'll join you.

Have you thought about your wishes?

- Uh yes, the IUT in Roanne, it's good I think.

- Agro then? - Yes!

You'll have no trouble getting that.

But did you take a look at the MPSI prep schools?

Let's start dreaming!

What would you like to do?

I don't know...

I'm fine with IUT.

Sophie, you have a gift for math.

You have to do something with it.

IUT, OK,

but an MPSI offers other possibilities.

In so many areas...

Ring

- I have to go now, Mr. Radeck. Thank you, Mr Radeck!

Grunts

High-pitched plaintive growl

--

Dad, I don't think he's well.

Hold it tight.

Shhh...

There, now.

Is that you, Sophie?

Yes, I'm just checking something.

Good Night! - Good Night!

(René Descartes, boarding school, preparatory classes...)

(Three MPSI classes, majoring in Maths and Physics)

What do you think?

What about you?

Aren't you going to say anything?

- I wanted Mr Radeck to explain.

If I leave, it's going to make a change around here,

all I'm going to do is work. - That's for sure.

And what do you think?

We're talking about you here, the suite.

We talked about Agro,

but I can do other things things with these preparatory courses.

What are "other things"?

Mr. Radeck, don't hold it against me. blame me, I'm a practical person.

While Sophie is doing an IUT in Roanne,

I can see where this is going. But if she leaves

to do lots of other things things,

I can't see so well...

- And that's precisely important thing:

the opportunity to choose,

later.

Competitive entrance examinations enter a top school.

Les Mines, Centrale, Polytechnique, these are the best...

Good morning!

Hello... Or else

an engineering curriculum.

She can apply for a scholarship.

I really think she has what it takes.

Would you like this?

Yes.

That's what I want.

Upbeat music

--

How big it is!

- Am I making a mistake? - I didn't say that...

I couldn't imagine that either...

Impressive.

--

14, here it is.

How do you like it?

It's well laid out.

I'll be off.

- Don't you want to stay a little longer a little longer?

- No, I said I was coming home for supper.

Oh dear, I'm going to cry.

You'll be in touch soon ? - Yes, I will!

Intriguing music

--

Crap.

Door opening

Knock, knock, knock

- I'm sorry. I'm sorry. - Yeah.

Do you have a tampon?

- Yes, totally! - Thank you.

Here.

- Sophie. - Diane.

- I'm in the next room. next door. - OK...

So if I copulate, you hear everything.

- With all the work ahead of us,

the ass, it's not won!

That's right.

Where are you from?

Thizy-les-Bourgs.

Where's Thizy-les-trous?

In the soil. How about you?

Belfort.

AUTONOMOUS TERRITORY.

What next?

What are you aiming at?

- What do you mean? - Schools?

- Schools? The competition, is next year!

- Yes, but you have to already.

I don't know.

I'm here for the math. And are you?

Polytechnique or Normale Sup.

Well, normal. It's research that I'm interested in.

The army, just thinking about it makes me sick.

- The army? - Yeah.

Polytechnique is military.

Didn't you see the parade photos ?

Like... Laughs

You've never seen anything like this? It's so cheesy.

How are you?

Are you okay? - I'm fine.
