A Sun So Bright (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 40 - Épisode 40 - full transcript

This is my place.

If you don't like it then get out!

I'm sorry about last night.

How about dinner,
to help you forget?

Wasn't that the guy?

He's the deputy mayor of Bérargue.

Aren't those guys far-right?

What's going on
between the two of you?

This is getting dull.

See you.

- Do you want a drink?
- Why?



I liked what you did for Antonin.

His parents are strict,
so I owned up.

You did the right thing.

Say, if someone hurt you.
You can trust me.

Sorry I'm late.

I think she's scared.

Of Eliot?

Next time you stir the shit,
you'll get it, OK?

You're due in court,

so now's the time to speak up.

I'm to blame.
And no one else.

Hello, Eliot.

I just heard the news.

What news?



- Didn't you see the papers?
- No.

- The dealer confessed, yesterday.
- Really?

Yes, he'll go to jail.

- I'm relieved for you.
- It's a weight off my mind.

I'm happy.
Lucille will be, too.

About what?

The barman.

He confessed.

What?

I'm so relieved.

The bastard!

Akim played me for a fool.
And I totally fell for it.

I'm sorry, darling,
but at the same time...

You're happy, for your son.

I would be too.

If I'd checked him,
we could've avoided a tragedy

and all that stress
for you and your son.

It's over now. It's behind us.

Not for that young girl in hospital.

Your nurse friend
said she's waking up.

I'll be much happier when she does.

Then we can try to forget all this

and get back to family life:
you, me and the kids.

Thanks.

What for?

For being you.

I care about you a lot, too.

Hi, dude.

I've got a great spot.

Who cares about her!
Just come yourself.

I swear, the Hummer's the best.

Did you have a drink with Theo?

Yes, why?

You keep warning me about him.
Now you're friends.

I just liked what he did for Antonin.

Do you like him?

No - we just had a drink.

And Dylan was there.

I'm sorry.

I still like him -
it makes me say stuff I don't mean.

What's new?

Nothing.

The holidays.

He's anti-gay marriage!

How can you work for him?

I'm not working for him.
I'm consulting, for free.

It might help me.

- He's going places.
- He's standing as an MEP.

Another right-wing homophobe
may get elected,

thanks to you.

He's not like that.
He's just using it to get votes.

So he's a hypocrite! Even better!

That's how politics works.

He's a nice guy, in private.
He's funny.

Does he tell good queer jokes?

He's not like that.
He doesn't care.

You must be getting something
out of all this.

It's just interesting,
seeing politics from the inside.

It's part of my job.

Your job is to help causes
that you believe in.

When did you become
an expert in journalism?

Whatever the profession,

not everyone sells their soul.

- What are you doing?
- Leaving.

- Hello, doctor.
- Hello.

Your wife tells me that Johanna
is showing signs of waking up.

She's in a scale 1 coma.

The latest analysis was good.

So you think she'll wake up?

There's a high probability
that she will.

Do you have any idea when?

No, it could be...

tomorrow, in two weeks,
I don't know.

- Can you be more exact?
- No.

The good news is that the scan
showed no neurological damage.

There's no long-term damage.

Will she remember the evening?

It's possible.

Excuse me.

Thanks.

So, what's this about?

Payment for the teacher's car.

It's OK.

I'll pay half.

Sure, if you want to.

How do you think Theo's doing?

Great.

As usual.

Why?

I don't know.
He seems funny to me.

We used to be so open,
but he never talks to me now.

He's getting independent.
That's no bad thing.

Maybe. It's hard.

He wouldn't tell me what happened.

Don't worry about school.
He did the right thing.

Did he tell you about it?

Yes.

He needs some distance from you.

It's easier, now I'm here.

It just feels
like it's over between us.

He's not your boyfriend.

You know what I mean.

They're everything

and then suddenly it's all over.

It's called adolescence.

I always thought
it'd be different with my son.

I had the same thing,
with the twins,

but we raised them

to be independent
and live their lives.

Yes, but it's like I've lost an arm.

Yes.

Hello.

This wasn't scheduled.

It's about my flat.
I'd like to have it repainted.

It's not that easy.

Just ask the town hall to cover it.

I'd rather not attract attention.

I shouldn't really
have given you the flat.

Not at ?250 a month.

OK.

Since you're here,

what do you think about this?
It's new.

"Bell Towers, Not Minarets."

It's not that subtle.

You think?

Totally.

"Jobs, Not Gay Marriage."

You want the Catholic vote,

but it'll set people against you.

I like it.

You can't use it.
Honestly,

you'll spoil your image
and it'd be hard to back-peddle.

OK, I'll trust you.

You can't say anything
in this country.

I mean...

How did you do it?

- What?
- Don't treat me like a fool.

To get the barman to confess.

It's a mystery.

This isn't a joke.

Why do you think it was me?

You've got it in you.

But he was with the cops.

So how did you do it?

I'm a bit of a magician

and I never give away my secrets.

I'll find out.

Don't make me use my magic on you.

Ah, the new school-hero's sister.

- Half-sister.
- Whatever.

You must be proud of him.

- What do you want, Dylan?
- Nothing.

Come on, this isn't just about Theo.

OK, I need a hand.

With what?

Something with Theo.

I agreed to an open relationship

and let her sleep around,

but I can't let her volunteer
for a fascist.

She doesn't agree with him.

Helping to promote his ideas,
comes to the same thing.

That guy needs shooting!

Steady on, Sofia.
He's not Hitler.

Those demonstrators were shouting

"Burn the Fags!".

They're sick in the head.

I don't get it.

I don't recognize her.

She was never like this.

Jo's a cynic.
She always has been.

If you can't take it, don't see her.

She'll never change.

I know.

You're twisted.

Come on!
Will you help, or not?

If you like,
but I don't think it'll work.

I'd still like to try.

If it'll make you happy.

Can you take him to court?

OK, where's his lawyer?

- He's over there.
- OK.

You'll go to jail.

It's a shame.
You've dodged it, till now.

So?

I'm thinking of your family.

Your mum will beg us to let you go.

Don't you want to talk?

No, I don't.

Too bad.
I almost thought you were innocent.

Never trust a dealer.

Theo!

Theo, can we talk?

Are you coming for dinner tonight?

I don't know...

Hi guys.

I've got an idea.
Do you fancy a camping trip?

For the holidays?

Yes, in the forest.

What do you say?

Who else is going?

I don't know -
Inès, a few friends - we'll see.

It'd be fun.

I've got no kit.

We've got loads - don't worry.

I don't know.

We've never done anything together.

It's a pity.

True,

but how about something else?

Why?

You've done loads of camping.

You could teach me some stuff.

Come on!

OK.

It'll be cool.

Great.

I warn you,

don't ask me, next time.

There won't be a next time.
I learned my lesson.

I'd like to believe you.

It won't happen again.

That's right.

If you mess up again,
I won't lift a finger to help.

You did it for yourself, not for me.

It was to protect your reputation.

Cynicism and ingratitude.

- Such qualities!
- It's in my blood.

Don't push it, Eliot.

Or what? You'll have a go at Mum?

I don't know what she said,

but good mothers
don't go crying to their sons.

It's unhealthy.

Unlike you,
Mum's always been there for me.

And look at the results.

I'll never ask you for anything.
Ever.

Just leave Mum alone,

or things will turn out badly.

Very badly.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Sorry about this morning.

It was me.

I don't like your work,
but who am I to judge?

Let's not argue about Mero.

I agree.

We can't fall out
over that dirty bastard.

He's not just

pandering to the far-right.

Meaning?

He's Catholic, fascist and racist.

Does that change things?

I could do it if he was bluffing,

but if he's not...

So,
there are limits to your cynicism?

I think so.

So what next?

I don't know about Mero.
Beyond that...

maybe a cocktail
with my favourite ballbreaker.

I'd like a drink with a turncoat.

Steady on.

Come on.

Lea?

- OK?
- Yes.

Do you want to come camping
next week?

Yes. Why not?

Manon and Theo are coming.
Is that OK?

- That's fine.
- Great.

Where?

A few days in the forest.

We can swim and do some work.

Great.

And it'd be an opportunity
to try something with Theo.

I don't want to.

Really?

It'll still be nice.

- Ciao.
- Bye.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Did you have a nice day?

It was OK.

School's not too tough?

No. Why?

Are the teachers being hard on you,
after what happened?

No.

And the students?

Fine.

I saw Julien today.
He said you spoke to him.

What did he say?

Nothing in particular.
Just that you talked.

Ah, OK.

It's good that you can talk.

I didn't plan it, it just happened.

It's OK, Theo - he's your dad.

But I wanted you to know

I'm here, if you need me.

As a kid, you'd say:
"Mum, I need to tell you a problem."

Yes, I was five.

But you can still confide in me.

Yes, I know, Mum.

OK, I'll get to work.

There's a new vegan restaurant.

Really?

- Shall we go?
- Yes.

OK.

How would you react
if Mero saw us, doing this in public?

I couldn't care less.

Come on!
I know you act straight with him.

No, not at all.

No?
Did you tell him you're bi?

No - it just never came up.

You hypocrite!

Hypocrite? Me?
You'll see.

Are you putting that online?

Too bad for me.

So, who's not facing up to things?

OK.

There we go.

Are you sleeping here?

Something's not right about Akim.

Have you got attached?

That's the thug in you.
You can't help it.

He said he was innocent
and then he confesses

to putting Johanna in a coma.

He was almost free.

He'd have still been charged.

He wasn't about to get off.

Was that normal behaviour?

- No.
- No.

Maybe he had a guilty conscience.

Stop it.

I don't know!
I'm just thinking out loud.

- Any ideas?
- No, none.

But it just doesn't ring true.

It doesn't?

I think he's reeled you in.
You think he's innocent.

I don't get it
and that means something's wrong.

The doctor said
Johanna's going to wake up.

She'll tell us everything.

Right.

It won't be long.

Come on.

I said you'd be OK.

Yes, you handled it.

So did you.

To us.

What's up?

Can't you just be happy?

We're almost in the clear.

Unlike the barman.

Who cares about that guy?

Don't you mind
sending an innocent man to jail?

He's not innocent.

He's a proper dealer.
Isn't that ironic?

- What are you doing?
- This?

It's for Johanna.

She's about to come out of her coma.

Eliot, you can't do that.

Would you rather she turned us in?

So, we agree.

This'll make sure it doesn't happen.

She'll never wake up.

So, Tarzan?
Ready for the crocodile hunt?

Why do you want me to drink?

What's going on here?

He's tricking me.

All you have to do
is turn up and distract them.

I'll do the rest.
