Here's the time on RTL.

ONE WILD MOMENT

it's 5:20 pm and 15 seconds.

Now the weather report.

Southerly winds throughout Europe.

Clear skies in southern France

and bright sunshine, as on the Riviera.

The temperature in Nice Is 25 degrees in the shade.

A fine day for the Tour de France,

with storms tomorrow.

Martini

Two ice cubes, 2 wist of lemon,

a sweetly bitter freshness .

Martini on the rocks.

Yes, its me.

No, don't worry.

We're ok.

Fine. How about you?

And the kids?

She isn't up yet. I'll call her.

So long. Take care.

Martine...

It's your mother.

Come on, quick!

- What does she want? - You'll see.

Look at you... sucking your thumb.

Are Eric and Jean ok?

Can't they come here for a few days?

There's a free room for them.

You can have them in September.

I don't know.

What did she want?

She asked about the trip.

How are your brothers?

- They'd like to come too. - Too late now.

You could make some real coffee.

Look at this...

Want some?

I'm beat

- Go to bed. - I just got up.

Dad...

What?

Nothing.

Tell me.

- Come on - Forget it.

The other one.

I'll go.

Francoise, telephone!

Yes, all right.

Take care, Florence. Here she is.

Hi, Mom. How are you?

When are you coming?

Why not? Come on down.

I'l get him. Hold on.

Dad, it's Mom!

Hi there.

How's it going?

When are you coming?

What do you need to think about?

Can't you think here?

Where else would you go?

Fly down tonight. I'll meet you.

I'm not starting again, you are!

We're not going to argue now.

I'm perfectly calm, dammit!

If you don't ccme down, I'll fetch you!

To think about what? Do I think?

Sorry, I don't understand.

We can talk here.

No, we won't see! Come here!

What's wrong?

No idea...

She says she needs time to think.

When they think, it's bad news.

I should have forced her to come.

You're burning.

You need some cream.

Those chicks are stacked!

This stuffs sticky...

We fought over nothing as usual.

We couldn't shut her suitcase.

I said she didn't need 0 much stuff and...

she blew her top.

It all came out...

My mother, my selfish behavior,

the birth I missed,

my snoring at night,

this moustache I've grown...

Couples always bicker over petty stuff.

Don't worry. She'll come down here, right?

I don't know.

When I yell, it lasts 5 minutes.

But she stays mad for a whole week.

Never mind, 'l take care of you, baby.

Cut it out!

- Coming in? - Not yet.

Look, a crab!

Cut that out!

Come on in now.

- No. - You never want to.

Leave your dad be.

Let's try the ghost train

On vacation?

We were looking for you.

See you later.

- Have fun. - You too.

We'll do our best

Screwed again...

What? Screwed and good.

You have to be kidding!

You'll think at Club Med?

Are you serious?

Come down here or I'll come up.

Don't worry, I'll find you!

Where were you? I was calling until 2 am.

At your girlfriend's, my ass!

Cool it, ok.

'I fetch you from Agadir if need be. Believe me!

She's off to Club Med in Agadir with a friend.

She wants to think there.

Think with her ass!

Can't she think at her mom's?

There are hunks everywhere.

Let her go to Agadir.

She'll cool off and come back sweet as honey.

'I fetch her back.

Don't be stupid. Simmer down.

I don't get it.

When we're together, it's hell.

But when she's not around, it's hell too.

After 20 years, you're still crazy about her.

It's always that way.

You yell and fight, then end up in bed.

And start all over again, year after year.

I've been through the mill.

You got out though.

Me? Are you kidding?

The hell I did.

If she hadn't spit, I'd still rule the roost.

At first it's rough, but you get over it.

You learn to make coffee,

to cock one egg, then two,

to spread out in the bed. You live again.

Believe me...

The thing you enjoy most of all

is the peace and quiet.

Total calm, no more yelling.

15 years of non-stop boxing is enough.

At first, I thought I'd never make it. But here I am.

A young man again

Happy as a lark!

As a young man, you kept on falling in love.

Not anymore.

I rather chop off my hand

Its less painful

I'm a young man, but with experience now.

Experience..

Qur daughters will gain in experience too.

You'll see...

Watt till she brings home a broke and filthy hippie

and starts sobbing, “Dad, I love him!"

Two weeks later, she'll tell you it's over.

After that, it'l be some other guy with long hair.

Id love to see your face!

Its a full-time job.

Are you hungry?

Come en, we just ate.

I fancy some pasta.

Is yours on the pill?

Why do you ask?

Seen the time?

Its 4 am.

See for yourself.

What are they doing?

Fooling around. What else?

We can't tie them down.

Too bad.

If they want to fool around, they'll do it.

Francoise would tell me first.

How? By walkie-talkie?

If she gets the urge, you think she'll say,

“Hold on, I have to talk to Dad first!"

Is Martine on it?

No idea... Her mother deals with all that.

Mine asked me about it.

She wanted to go on it
