Franck.
It's Franck, right?
- How are you?
- I'm fine.
- It's been too long.
- Yeah, too long.
I have to go, I promised my wife
to relieve the babysitter.
- Thanks for coming out.
- No problem. It was very good.
What you heard... We can do much better.
- It sounded great.
- No.
I run a small label, I make no money.
So, it's a no?
You were with Blue Note.
What do you care what I think?
If you were playing
it would be a different story.
I think this band
could be something special.
Will you come again?
I'll try... I'll try.
Gotta go. It's late. Good night.
♪ Smiling face ♪
Learn your parts!
Three nights, you shit the bed.
- You fucked up.
- No, I never fuck up.
Let me pack.
Well, pack up for good
'cause tonight was shit.
- You too. Change your mouthpiece.
- Right.
- Jude?
- What's going on, man?
It fell apart.
- I played better.
- Always on my case, man!
- Hey, great show, man.
- Thank you.
See you next time.
Thank you.
- Brilliant. Brilliant!
- Thank you very much.
- Will you play, next time? Please!
- Hey, we'll see.
You should. Thank you.
- Thank you, Elliot.
- Thank you. See you soon.
- See you very soon. Goodbye.
- Goodbye.
So nice meeting you.
I'm such a big fan. I have all your CDs.
Great. That's more than I got, man.
- Wife got everything in the divorce...
- Thanks.
So that's it.
- How many mojitos for table 8?
- Uh... three.
- Three.
- Three, yeah.
I really mean it, you sang well.
- Not this time, I didn't.
- See you tomorrow, guys.
- Leaving?
- Yeah. See you tomorrow?
Yeah.
Kat, we need you,
we're discussing something.
- Yeah, but...
- Where you going? Stay here.
We gotta talk.
You guys killed it tonight.
- He's nice.
- You should've heard him, that's all.
We're in combat
and we hear some strange things.
Guys, stop. You killed it.
Why the long faces?
- Guess who was here tonight?
- Keith Jarrett!
Better. Better than that!
Franck. Franck Lévy.
What?
Franck Lévy was here tonight.
In the club. He was listening to...
Hey, guys, why did Franck Lévy come?
Because he was hearing buzz about you
all over Paris. So stop pouting.
He came tonight,
I talked to him, he was listening to you.
He didn't want to talk
'cause he was having fun listening to you.
Show some team spirit.
When I say you were good, I mean it.
Sleep on that.
Tomorrow you come back
and do the same as tonight, but better.
Bye, guys.
- We're good.
- Kat, don't leave!
That's the good news.
Alright, guys?
Night, guys. Get some practice in.
Maja, when you're singing, forget Elliot.
Get him out of your head.
- He was staring at me.
- I know.
I know it's complicated but...
I know you.
The audience didn't notice,
but I know you can do better.
OK? Forget him.
Think about yourself. You sing.
- It's what moves you.
- Thank you.
- Go on, you too.
- The two brothers...
See you tomorrow.
See you tomorrow at two.
Two?
Call Jojo early
so he can learn his parts.
You never back me up.
- You crushed it.
- Good night.
- Learn to play trumpet!
- Thank you. I'm staying for a bit.
Take care. Bless you.
- You're great. We need you.
- Thank you, thank you.
- Stay strong.
- I will.
- You're the man.
- You're the man.
See you tomorrow.
Jojo!
Thank you very much for tonight.
I love you. Chin up.
- Yeah.
- Farid's right. Just...
...zone him out. Pay no attention.
- It'll pass.
- Thank you.
Good evening.
- Hey.
- We're closed.
- Farid?
- He left.
- I here for money.
- Send an invoice. We'll get you paid.
- Hey.
- Hey, hey. Hey!
Maja!
Hey. Maja!
- Hey. I here for money.
- OK.
- Where is the money?
- Farid is not here. Come back tomorrow.
Where is the money?
- What's the matter with you?
- Where is the money?
Elliot? You OK?
You're bleeding.
Hey!
Elliot?
Elliot!
Hey!
Farid!
Farid!
Hey! I've got kids trying to sleep here!
- What's wrong with you?
- Where's Farid?
What happened?
- Will you...?
- Come in. Quiet. Farid's not here.
I told you it would sting.
- Ready?
- No.
Come on!
It could leave a small scar.
You could look sexy.
Hmm?
Like a... cowboy.
Old... cowboy.
Old, old...
Really, really old.
I feel old.
So how did it happen?
Hmm?
- What was it?
- Don't worry. Where is Farid?
I don't know.
You should know.
- He tells me the band is almost great.
- He's wrong.
Tell me more.
Tell you what?
It's a club.
It's OK.
It's OK?
That's all you and Farid ever say.
Either you say nothing
or you say it's OK.
- I don't understand.
- Mm.
You don't understand French
when it suits you!
You know, Elliot...
...we've put everything we have into this.
So have I.
No offense,
but we have more to lose than you.
Shit.
Don't look at me like that.
This was your fault.
- What happened?
- What happened?
Hey, wait for me!
I'm talking to you.
I was closing up last night.
Dude comes in saying we owe him money.
- A buddy of yours?
- He was looking for me?
- Yes. Where were you?
- Meeting a guy about new speakers.
At two in the morning?
They're probably hot, but nobody'll know.
Don't worry.
Man, what are we, crooks, now?
I gotta get beat up
every time I leave the club?
Don't worry about that guy.
Listen to me.
Truth is, I bought some cheap booze
from him and...
I didn't pay him back.
How much do we owe him?
Five.
Thousand.
Man, come on!
You're interested
in our finances now?
Come on, this'll be fun.
We'll talk grants, payroll,
taxes, permits...
You realize that running a club
takes a lot more than...
Hey! Just tell me, man.
Are we in trouble?
No, don't worry.
Franck Lévy called me.
He's calling you, not me?
Yeah. They won't sign us just yet.
But you'll see, with time, it'll happen.
It will.
♪ With time, with time, with time ♪
Of course it takes time, my brother.
Hmm.
- Something new?
- Might be.
What do you think of it?
Go major.
Try it faster. Faster.
It's nice.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Please, come in.
Haven't we met before?
- Have we?
- I think we have.
- I'm not sure.
- We have.
I don't remember.
It was a summer evening, along the river.
You two make me sick.
I brought lunch.
- Lunch?
- Mm-hmm.
Shit. I gotta go.
- What was that about?
- I don't know.
Naturally.
Something good?
- Hey, hey!
- Hi.
- Come here.
- I stink!
It's nice to see you.
Is it?
Did you carry your clarinet on,
or did you check it?
- What happened to your face?
- Don't worry about it.
- Maybe I didn't bring it.
- Julie, Julie...
- That's a good instrument. Don't check...
- Dad, I just landed. Hi.
Hello.
How about a hug?
Hmm? Hmm?
Come on, come on.
All right. Let's get out of here.
OK.
Please tell me you didn't bring
that dumb bike to take me home.
Hey!
- Hey, fuck you, asshole!
- Hey, hey.
Fuck you!
I like it when you wear stockings.
And it's convenient.
You always say the sexiest things.
I'll wear them more often.
Did you talk to him about Maja?
That's none of our business.
Did you talk to him
about the club? That's our business.
Oh, sorry.
- Katarina, it's fine!
- No!
- Come in!
- No!
- Now they know we're sleeping together!
- That's not it. It's embarrassing.
You told me no one was here.
She's out there.
- It's not funny.
- Katarina, come!
Stop it!
- I'm not coming back.
- OK.
- I mean it.
- Farewell.
Farewell.
Eat.
Maja!
Maja!
I broke down.
Julie.
Julie, come here.
Hey, you, uh...
You remember Julie, right?
She needs a glass of water and a shower.
Hi.
Please?
- It's all I've got.
- Thank you.
How was your flight?
Oh, God, it was terrible.
The guy beside me kept farting.
Every time he farted he looked at me
because he felt bad about it.
So I couldn't hate him. He kept looking
at me with this look on his face.
Like... Like this. Like, he was like...
And I was just, like...
"Um, I'm sorry..."
OK, that's enough.
Thanks, Dad.
What's the story here?
No story.
No story?
OK. Time for my shower.
The blue towel is clean.
- Thank you.
- Welcome.
What happened to your face?
You don't like it?
You come to my apartment and you act
like I'm making you uncomfortable?
- Thank you, Maja, for taking us in.
- I took her in, not you.
I've been working on something.
Want to hear it?
- What happened to your piano?
- It was your piano.
- Yeah, I know it was.
- So I sold it.
I had to call my mother
this morning, for...
money for my rent,
and she gave it to me,
but she says...
she always says, "Maja,
you made great money in New York,
why do you do this to yourself?"
And you know what? For the first time
I couldn't answer the question.
Invite her to the club.
Let her hear you sing.
You think I want her here
when I'm like this?
And don't play on that keyboard, OK?

- I wish you'd sung like that last night.
- Fuck you.
You're not gonna offer me one?
That's pretty rude.
That was the wrong place to bring you.
You think so?
How you doing?
You look good. Healthy.
What were you expecting? Track marks?
No. But your mother did say
you've been struggling a bit, so…
OK, well, you don't have
to listen to my mom.
I do listen to your mother
where you're concerned.
Cool it, kids! Cool it!
Take it easy, Adam! Hey!
You're practicing, not making noise.
Stop!
Wait. I'll do it even louder.
- Mom, he's strangling me!
- I'll teach you to play djembe.
Adam!
Adam!
Look what he's doing!
My head...
Be careful, Farid!
Settle down.
Let me explain something.
No, it's important.
Sit down, both of you.
Sit down.
Here, this is yours.
No, no, cool it, kids.
- Listen to me.
- It's yours.
Will you listen to me?
What's important...
- That's mine.
- OK.
Later!
Dad, open up!
- You locked us in?
- Not at all.
Yes, you did!
- What if we need to pee?
- Pee out the window. Improvise.
You'll see. I'm gonna do it.
- You really locked them in?
- I'll let them out in two minutes.
Hey! No! Don't touch!
You don't know how to cook.
Let go. Wash the dishes, it's safer.
No, you cook, you wash the dishes.
Did you go to the bank?
- Yeah.
- And?
They say the club is too risky...
and not French enough.
Not French enough?
What does that mean?
I don't know. I don't understand.
You could talk to your dad...
- No.
- Why not?
Stop!
I don't understand. I swear...
It's like you enjoy being in trouble.
Stop it.
No. You're a pain!
So where
are you dragging me to now?
One more stop.
- Hey.
- How are you?
- Julie, this is Awa.
- Nice to meet you.
- Hey, man.
- You good?
- How's it going?
- Good.
Hey, guys. My daughter, Julie.
- Hey.
- Hi.
- You good?
- Yeah, yeah, good.
- Julie, do you speak French?
- No.
You play an instrument?
Clarinet. She plays clarinet.
Guys, where's the singer?
Oh, no one came.
- No one came?
- Yeah, but...
- Today we're both the singers.
- Sim, I wanted to hear the singer.
No, but it's great. You're gonna see.
Julie, let me tell you
about singer problem.
- Be right back.
- He always go on about singers.
- You just detest the woman.
- I hate women.
- You hate women?
- Women singers. And men singers.
- You hate women singers?
- Hey, guys, guys!
Guys! We going to play music or what?
OK. Play "Au Milieu."
- "Au Milieu."
- Yeah. And get it right.
- I always do. You too. "Au Milieu."
- "Au Milieu."
Come on.
Hey.
Hey!
Shit... Hey!
Who was that?
What the fuck happened?
God...
What's wrong with you?
- Sure it's the same guy?
- Yeah. Same guy.
And you ran after him?
- What was I supposed to do?
- I don't know. I'm just asking.
Don't worry. I'll take care of it.
Is the band ready?
Yeah. Where's Maja?
What do you mean, where's Maja?
She didn't show up?
Maja!
Maja, your buzzer's still broke.
Maja!
Excuse me, ma'am,
I have a broken heart...
No, sir. No, you can't come in.
- Please.
- No, you can't come in. I don't know you.
- It's not possible.
- I have a broken heart.
- No. Come back, sir. No!
- Thank you.
Maja?
Maja, come on.
Don't do this.
Maja?
You are not this type of person.
Come on.
- Did you call her?
- Yeah, I called her. Nothing.
Seriously?
- Should we go?
- No. We gotta wait a bit.
No, I'm sick and tired of this,
we're always waiting.
She's not on time.
Do we wait all night?
- We're just gonna get chewed out.
- We always end up having to wait. No.
This is his bullshit, man.
Let him sort it out.
Anyway, if you say...
I'm going. You guys do what you want.
I'm with you.
This is bullshit, guys.
- You take things too personally.
- Not at all.
The Elliot-Maja saga...
- Just don't let it get to you.
- It doesn't get to me.
Hey, little girl.
You talk in your sleep.
What was I saying?
If I told you, it would spoil it.
Dreadlocks is joking me.
- So, did you find her?
- No.
So give them a treat. You play.
You won't fetch her, you won't play...
You want to close?
She's not at home.
They're instrumentalists tonight.
Fine, I'll take care of it.
- Hey, don't do that.
- Then you go.
Farid, quality matters. You understand?
Listen, if we don't play,
they won't come back.
- We can't afford to be empty.
- We can't afford to be bad.
Go to hell.

I sent Julie home in a taxi.
You know you left her with us?
Uh...
Fuck you very much for tonight.
- I'll take out the trash.
- Go ahead.
Hey!
Hey!
Fuck.
Hey! Oh!
Fuck...
You're loaded.
That wakes you up, huh?
Here. Down there to your left,
there's a taxi stand.
If you wanna use this for something else,
don't do it near my club. OK?
Go on, get outta here.
Beat it!
Dad.
- Dad, your phone's ringing.
- Hmm?
"How did you get home?
Did I forget you?"
These would all be great
fucking questions to ask.
Yeah?
Wait. What?
Shit.
The Relais de Belleville until...
I don't know. Three in the morning.
- Not the Eddy?
- No.
- Why weren't you in your own club?
- What?
Why weren't you in your own club?
- Farid and I had an argument.
- An argument or a fight?
An argument. That was someone else.
And can you describe
that someone else to me?
- Yes, of course.
- What did he look like?
He was short, Caucasian.
- Honestly, I don't know.
- What happened?
- What?
- What happened with him?
I don't know. That's all I know.
- OK, thank you.
- OK? OK?
Thank you.
Here you have tuna sandwiches,
then you have salmon,
cheese and tomato or ham.
Do you have any clue what she likes?
No idea.
I can help. Let me help you.
There you go.
Thanks.
Do you have any family?
Someone I can call?
A friend? Parents?
How is she?
She's good.
Uh... She says I can come home.
Nah. I don't think it's a good idea.
If I go home
I think you should come with me.
- What?
- I think you should come with me.
Julie, I can't.
Why?
What are you gonna do here?
Why don't you want to come home?
I used to...
play, at home, sometimes.
Your brother would sometimes
come into the room
And do this little... stiff man dance,
like he was 400 years old.
He wouldn't move his arms...
or legs. He just kind of...
That used to make your mother laugh.
You remember that?
Mm-hmm.
I haven't heard you... talk about Fred
in a really long time.
Hey.
New York isn't my home anymore.
Yeah, but it's my home.
Look, Farid and I started
some things here and I can't just stop.
That's what people do all the time, Dad.
They stop.
Please wait.
We are connecting your call.
Yes?
You fixed your buzzer?
They did.
You heard the news?
Yes.
I, uh...
I want to open the club tonight.
To play.
Hey.
Elliot.
Thanks for coming.
Hey.
- You OK?
- Mm-hmm.
Isn't this a crime scene?
Happened outside.
Hey, man.
Hey.
Hi.
- How are you?
- I'm OK.
I'm so sorry.
Hey.
Elliot.
Should we open the doors?
- Let's do it.
- OK.
Let's go. Go.
All right, guys. Up you go.
Good evening. My name's Robby Marshall.
We're pleased to be here tonight.
We're gonna start with a song
called "Mira". Thank you.
Someone was killed here.
Of course nobody comes.
- You're not in bed?
- I'm hungry.
Is it good?
Thank you.
Thank you very much. Good night.
- Do your thing.
- OK.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
Hi, boss. You OK?
It's packed.
First time I've seen this place full.
It's kind of dark.
If you can't be good,
be notorious, right?

- No problem. It was very good.
What you heard... We can do much better.
- It sounded great.
- No.
I run a small label, I make no money.
So, it's a no?
You were with Blue Note.
What do you care what I think?
If you were playing
it would be a different story.
I think this band
could be something special.
Will you come again?
I'll try... I'll try.
Gotta go. It's late. Good night.
♪ Smiling face ♪
Learn your parts!
Three nights, you shit the bed.
- You fucked up.
- No, I never fuck up.
Let me pack.
Well, pack up for good
'cause tonight was shit.
- You too. Change your mouthpiece.
- Right.
- Jude?
- What's going on, man?
It fell apart.
- I played better.
- Always on my case, man!
- Hey, great show, man.
- Thank you.
See you next time.
Thank you.
- Brilliant. Brilliant!
- Thank you very much.
- Will you play, next time? Please!
- Hey, we'll see.
You should. Thank you.
- Thank you, Elliot.
- Thank you. See you soon.
- See you very soon. Goodbye.
- Goodbye.
So nice meeting you.
I'm such a big fan. I have all your CDs.
Great. That's more than I got, man.
- Wife got everything in the divorce...
- Thanks.
So that's it.
- How many mojitos for table 8?
- Uh... three.
- Three.
- Three, yeah.
I really mean it, you sang well.
- Not this time, I didn't.
- See you tomorrow, guys.
- Leaving?
- Yeah. See you tomorrow?
Yeah.
Kat, we need you,
we're discussing something.
- Yeah, but...
- Where you going? Stay here.
We gotta talk.
You guys killed it tonight.
- He's nice.
- You should've heard him, that's all.
We're in combat
and we hear some strange things.
Guys, stop. You killed it.
Why the long faces?
- Guess who was here tonight?
- Keith Jarrett!
Better. Better than that!
Franck. Franck Lévy.
What?
Franck Lévy was here tonight.
In the club. He was listening to...
Hey, guys, why did Franck Lévy come?
Because he was hearing buzz about you
all over Paris. So stop pouting.
He came tonight,
I talked to him, he was listening to you.
He didn't want to talk
'cause he was having fun listening to you.
Show some team spirit.
When I say you were good, I mean it.
Sleep on that.
Tomorrow you come back
and do the same as tonight, but better.
Bye, guys.
- We're good.
- Kat, don't leave!
That's the good news.
Alright, guys?
Night, guys. Get some practice in.
Maja, when you're singing, forget Elliot.
Get him out of your head.
- He was staring at me.
- I know.
I know it's complicated but...
I know you.
The audience didn't notice,
but I know you can do better.
OK? Forget him.
Think about yourself. You sing.
- It's what moves you.
- Thank you.
- Go on, you too.
- The two brothers...
See you tomorrow.
See you tomorrow at two.
Two?
Call Jojo early
so he can learn his parts.
You never back me up.
- You crushed it.
- Good night.
- Learn to play trumpet!
- Thank you. I'm staying for a bit.
Take care. Bless you.
- You're great. We need you.
- Thank you, thank you.
- Stay strong.
- I will.
- You're the man.
- You're the man.
See you tomorrow.
Jojo!
Thank you very much for tonight.
I love you. Chin up.
- Yeah.
- Farid's right. Just...
...zone him out. Pay no attention.
- It'll pass.
- Thank you.
Good evening.
- Hey.
- We're closed.
- Farid?
- He left.
- I here for money.
- Send an invoice. We'll get you paid.
- Hey.
- Hey, hey. Hey!
Maja!
Hey. Maja!
- Hey. I here for money.
- OK.
- Where is the money?
- Farid is not here. Come back tomorrow.
Where is the money?
- What's the matter with you?
- Where is the money?
Elliot? You OK?
You're bleeding.
Hey!
Elliot?
Elliot!
Hey!
Farid!
Farid!
Hey! I've got kids trying to sleep here!
- What's wrong with you?
- Where's Farid?
What happened?
- Will you...?
- Come in. Quiet. Farid's not here.
I told you it would sting.
- Ready?
- No.
Come on!
It could leave a small scar.
You could look sexy.
Hmm?
Like a... cowboy.
Old... cowboy.
Old, old...
Really, really old.
I feel old.
So how did it happen?
Hmm?
- What was it?
- Don't worry. Where is Farid?
I don't know.
You should know.
- He tells me the band is almost great.
- He's wrong.
Tell me more.
Tell you what?
It's a club.
It's OK.
It's OK?
That's all you and Farid ever say.
Either you say nothing
or you say it's OK.
- I don't understand.
- Mm.
You don't understand French
when it suits you!
You know, Elliot...
...we've put everything we have into this.
So have I.
No offense,
but we have more to lose than you.
Shit.
Don't look at me like that.
This was your fault.
- What happened?
- What happened?
Hey, wait for me!
I'm talking to you.
I was closing up last night.
Dude comes in saying we owe him money.
- A buddy of yours?
- He was looking for me?
- Yes. Where were you?
- Meeting a guy about new speakers.
At two in the morning?
They're probably hot, but nobody'll know.
Don't worry.
Man, what are we, crooks, now?
I gotta get beat up
every time I leave the club?
Don't worry about that guy.
Listen to me.
Truth is, I bought some cheap booze
from him and...
I didn't pay him back.
How much do we owe him?
Five.
Thousand.
Man, come on!
You're interested
in our finances now?
Come on, this'll be fun.
We'll talk grants, payroll,
taxes, permits...
You realize that running a club
takes a lot more than...
Hey! Just tell me, man.
Are we in trouble?
No, don't worry.
Franck Lévy called me.
He's calling you, not me?
Yeah. They won't sign us just yet.
But you'll see, with time, it'll happen.
It will.
♪ With time, with time, with time ♪
Of course it takes time, my brother.
Hmm.
- Something new?
- Might be.
What do you think of it?
Go major.
Try it faster. Faster.
It's nice.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Please, come in.
Haven't we met before?
- Have we?
- I think we have.
- I'm not sure.
- We have.
I don't remember.
It was a summer evening, along the river.
You two make me sick.
I brought lunch.
- Lunch?
- Mm-hmm.
Shit. I gotta go.
- What was that about?
- I don't know.
Naturally.
Something good?
- Hey, hey!
- Hi.
- Come here.
- I stink!
It's nice to see you.
Is it?
Did you carry your clarinet on,
or did you check it?
- What happened to your face?
- Don't worry about it.
- Maybe I didn't bring it.
- Julie, Julie...
- That's a good instrument. Don't check...
- Dad, I just landed. Hi.
Hello.
How about a hug?
Hmm? Hmm?
Come on, come on.
All right. Let's get out of here.
OK.
Please tell me you didn't bring
that dumb bike to take me home.
Hey!
- Hey, fuck you, asshole!
- Hey, hey.
Fuck you!
I like it when you wear stockings.
And it's convenient.
You always say the sexiest things.
I'll wear them more often.
Did you talk to him about Maja?
That's none of our business.
Did you talk to him
about the club? That's our business.
Oh, sorry.
- Katarina, it's fine!
- No!
- Come in!
- No!
- Now they know we're sleeping together!
- That's not it. It's embarrassing.
You told me no one was here.
She's out there.
- It's not funny.
- Katarina, come!
Stop it!
- I'm not coming back.
- OK.
- I mean it.
- Farewell.
Farewell.
Eat.
Maja!
Maja!
I broke down.
Julie.
Julie, come here.
Hey, you, uh...
You remember Julie, right?
She needs a glass of water and a shower.
Hi.
Please?
- It's all I've got.
- Thank you.
How was your flight?
Oh, God, it was terrible.
The guy beside me kept farting.
Every time he farted he looked at me
because he felt bad about it.
So I couldn't hate him. He kept looking
at me with this look on his face.
Like... Like this. Like, he was like...
And I was just, like...
"Um, I'm sorry..."
OK, that's enough.
Thanks, Dad.
What's the story here?
No story.
No story?
OK. Time for my shower.
The blue towel is clean.
- Thank you.
- Welcome.
What happened to your face?
You don't like it?
You come to my apartment and you act
like I'm making you uncomfortable?
- Thank you, Maja, for taking us in.
- I took her in, not you.
I've been working on something.
Want to hear it?
- What happened to your piano?
- It was your piano.
- Yeah, I know it was.
- So I sold it.
I had to call my mother
this morning, for...
money for my rent,
and she gave it to me,
but she says...
she always says, "Maja,
you made great money in New York,
why do you do this to yourself?"
And you know what? For the first time
I couldn't answer the question.
Invite her to the club.
Let her hear you sing.
You think I want her here
when I'm like this?
And don't play on that keyboard, OK?

- I wish you'd sung like that last night.
- Fuck you.
You're not gonna offer me one?
That's pretty rude.
That was the wrong place to bring you.
You think so?
How you doing?
You look good. Healthy.
What were you expecting? Track marks?
No. But your mother did say
you've been struggling a bit, so…
OK, well, you don't have
to listen to my mom.
I do listen to your mother
where you're concerned.
Cool it, kids! Cool it!
Take it easy, Adam! Hey!
You're practicing, not making noise.
Stop!
Wait. I'll do it even louder.
- Mom, he's strangling me!
- I'll teach you to play djembe.
Adam!
Adam!
Look what he's doing!
My head...
Be careful, Farid!
Settle down.
Let me explain something.
No, it's important.
Sit down, both of you.
Sit down.
Here, this is yours.
No, no, cool it, kids.
- Listen to me.
- It's yours.
Will you listen to me?
What's important...
- That's mine.
- OK.
Later!
Dad, open up!
- You locked us in?
- Not at all.
Yes, you did!
- What if we need to pee?
- Pee out the window. Improvise.
You'll see. I'm gonna do it.
- You really locked them in?
- I'll let them out in two minutes.
Hey! No! Don't touch!
You don't know how to cook.
Let go. Wash the dishes, it's safer.
No, you cook, you wash the dishes.
Did you go to the bank?
- Yeah.
- And?
They say the club is too risky...
and not French enough.
Not French enough?
What does that mean?
I don't know. I don't understand.
You could talk to your dad...
- No.
- Why not?
Stop!
I don't understand. I swear...
It's like you enjoy being in trouble.
Stop it.
No. You're a pain!
So where
are you dragging me to now?
One more stop.
- Hey.
- How are you?
- Julie, this is Awa.
- Nice to meet you.
- Hey, man.
- You good?
- How's it going?
- Good.
Hey, guys. My daughter, Julie.
- Hey.
- Hi.
- You good?
- Yeah, yeah, good.
- Julie, do you speak French?
- No.
You play an instrument?
Clarinet. She plays clarinet.
Guys, where's the singer?
Oh, no one came.
- No one came?
- Yeah, but...
- Today we're both the singers.
- Sim, I wanted to hear the singer.
No, but it's great. You're gonna see.
Julie, let me tell you
about singer problem.
- Be right back.
- He always go on about singers.
- You just detest the woman.
- I hate women.
- You hate women?
- Women singers. And men singers.
- You hate women singers?
- Hey, guys, guys!
Guys! We going to play music or what?
OK. Play "Au Milieu."
- "Au Milieu."
- Yeah. And get it right.
- I always do. You too. "Au Milieu."
- "Au Milieu."
Come on.
Hey.
Hey!
Shit... Hey!
Who was that?
What the fuck happened?
God...
What's wrong with you?
- Sure it's the same guy?
- Yeah. Same guy.
And you ran after him?
- What was I supposed to do?
- I don't know. I'm just asking.
Don't worry. I'll take care of it.
Is the band ready?
Yeah. Where's Maja?
What do you mean, where's Maja?
She didn't show up?
Maja!
Maja, your buzzer's still broke.
Maja!
Excuse me, ma'am,
I have a broken heart...
No, sir. No, you can't come in.
- Please.
- No, you can't come in. I don't know you.
- It's not possible.
- I have a broken heart.
- No. Come back, sir. No!
- Thank you.
Maja?
Maja, come on.
Don't do this.
Maja?
You are not this type of person.
Come on.
- Did you call her?
- Yeah, I called her. Nothing.
Seriously?
- Should we go?
- No. We gotta wait a bit.
No, I'm sick and tired of this,
we're always waiting.
She's not on time.
Do we wait all night?
- We're just gonna get chewed out.
- We always end up having to wait. No.
This is his bullshit, man.
Let him sort it out.
Anyway, if you say...
I'm going. You guys do what you want.
I'm with you.
This is bullshit, guys.
- You take things too personally.
- Not at all.
The Elliot-Maja saga...
- Just don't let it get to you.
- It doesn't get to me.
Hey, little girl.
You talk in your sleep.
What was I saying?
If I told you, it would spoil it.
Dreadlocks is joking me.
- So, did you find her?
- No.
So give them a treat. You play.
You won't fetch her, you won't play...
You want to close?
She's not at home.
They're instrumentalists tonight.
Fine, I'll take care of it.
- Hey, don't do that.
- Then you go.
Farid, quality matters. You understand?
Listen, if we don't play,
they won't come back.
- We can't afford to be empty.
- We can't afford to be bad.

I sent Julie home in a taxi.
You know you left her with us?
Uh...
Fuck you very much for tonight.
- I'll take out the trash.
- Go ahead.
Hey!
Hey!
Fuck.
Hey! Oh!
Fuck...
You're loaded.
That wakes you up, huh?
Here. Down there to your left,
there's a taxi stand.
If you wanna use this for something else,
don't do it near my club. OK?
Go on, get outta here.
Beat it!
Dad.
- Dad, your phone's ringing.
- Hmm?
"How did you get home?
Did I forget you?"
These would all be great
fucking questions to ask.
Yeah?
Wait. What?
Shit.
The Relais de Belleville until...
I don't know. Three in the morning.
- Not the Eddy?
- No.
- Why weren't you in your own club?
- What?
Why weren't you in your own club?
- Farid and I had an argument.
- An argument or a fight?
An argument. That was someone else.
And can you describe
that someone else to me?
- Yes, of course.
- What did he look like?
He was short, Caucasian.
- Honestly, I don't know.
- What happened?
- What?
- What happened with him?
I don't know. That's all I know.
- OK, thank you.
- OK? OK?
Thank you.
Here you have tuna sandwiches,
then you have salmon,
cheese and tomato or ham.
Do you have any clue what she likes?
No idea.
I can help. Let me help you.
There you go.
Thanks.
Do you have any family?
Someone I can call?
A friend? Parents?
How is she?
She's good.
Uh... She says I can come home.
Nah. I don't think it's a good idea.
If I go home
I think you should come with me.
- What?
- I think you should come with me.
Julie, I can't.
Why?
What are you gonna do here?
Why don't you want to come home?
I used to...
play, at home, sometimes.
Your brother would sometimes
come into the room
And do this little... stiff man dance,
like he was 400 years old.
He wouldn't move his arms...
or legs. He just kind of...
That used to make your mother laugh.
You remember that?
Mm-hmm.
I haven't heard you... talk about Fred
in a really long time.
Hey.
New York isn't my home anymore.
Yeah, but it's my home.
Look, Farid and I started
some things here and I can't just stop.
That's what people do all the time, Dad.
They stop.
Please wait.
We are connecting your call.
Yes?
You fixed your buzzer?
They did.
You heard the news?
Yes.
I, uh...
I want to open the club tonight.
To play.
Hey.
Elliot.
Thanks for coming.
Hey.
- You OK?
- Mm-hmm.
Isn't this a crime scene?
Happened outside.
Hey, man.
Hey.
Hi.
- How are you?
- I'm OK.
I'm so sorry.
Hey.
Elliot.
Should we open the doors?
- Let's do it.
- OK.
Let's go. Go.
All right, guys. Up you go.
Good evening. My name's Robby Marshall.
We're pleased to be here tonight.
We're gonna start with a song
called "Mira". Thank you.
Someone was killed here.
Of course nobody comes.
- You're not in bed?
- I'm hungry.
Is it good?
Thank you.
Thank you very much. Good night.
- Do your thing.
- OK.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
Hi, boss. You OK?
It's packed.
First time I've seen this place full.
It's kind of dark.
If you can't be good,
be notorious, right?
