Hey, room 14, the guy's out today, right?
Yes.. No, can't remember, just ask him
What are you doing?
Nothing, invitation cards for Sabri's birthday
- Really? When is it?
- The 13th
The 13th? Excellent! I have the perfect alibi
If I can avoid being dragged into that
Can I have the envelopes please?
Don't mess them all up!!
- Tell me, aren't there people missing?
- I don't think so
- Wait, there's a problem, you must have forgotten some people
Well, at least one.
Why do you care?
I thought you wouldn't come anyway
Obviously not I wouldn't, but that's not the point
Just ask Sabri, it might be a misunderstanding!
Wait a second, me? on my knees for a shitty celebration?
I couldn't care less! Let me tell you,
On the 13th, I Have a party that is going to be unreal
And when I say "unreal", it's... unreal.
Yeah, yeah, all that for tonight
No! Just me and you!
Just like old times
Ok you can't that's fine.
Ok let's keep in touch, yes, I'll call you
Hey Sabri! I am in such a good form!
Tonight is going to be mental
Why? You are going out yourself?
No, but I was thinking, it's Friday night
And it's been a while since we went out as friends
- So what's the plan?
- Well, you do whatever you want
But myself, I need to go at my uncle's
Oh yes, your uncle! The one I get along with!
That one, yes?
Don't think about it, not going to happen
Wait, you know he loves me right?
Not going to happen, I just told you
It's time you need to learn how to sleep alone!
Ok, well, I will remember (broken English)
- Jamel, I thought that both of us could
- No
- C'mon I am just asking you to spend some time with a lifelong friend
- And you can't even
- I told you before, I am going to MacDonald's!
Waw, you're going all in with a girl tonight!
Menu Big mac, large fries, large coke
Nobody leaves the room!
Why do you stop talking, something to feel guilty about?
No no, we were... conversing
And you?
Well, same, I was conversing
At first, I was conversing about here
Then I started conversing there
But I was mostly conversing sitting here, like that
Something very bad happened in these premises
Room 124's dead!?
Worse
Room 125's dead!?
There was a theft
Someone stole my collection stamp album
Damn, you scred me at first
that's fine, I don't have any!
MY stamp album!
Don't you worry Professor, we will find it
Don't you have a piece of cloth or something that the dog could smell
Aimé, nothing funny here, I know that kind of cycle
First a trivial murder, then a trivial theft, then, one morning
You wake up with the bathroom full of graffiti
Not in my backyard, my dears!
I need your help to stop that scoundrel
Scoundrel?
Scoundrel, eh!
But don't you have his first name, Professor?
So that I can do to the patients' register to track him
Culprits everywhere, here, here, and here. Everywhere!
So that I can do to the patients' register to track him
Culprits everywhere, here, here, and here. Everywhere!
If, in 48 hours
My album hasn't been found
I burn down the hospital
I cancel all May's bank holidays
I cancel "da big fiesta"
That's Clabri's Birthday. Jabri's, Plati's
What's that tall guy's name already?
- Sabri, but that's me
- Sabri, and that's you, very good
Everybody is a potential suspect
Let me repeat, everybody!
I'd say it's a bit awkward to steal stamps, don't you think?
Well you know once I stole my mother's fly tree, so...
Embarrassing as well
- Your mom's fly tree?
- Yes, her fly tree
It is like an herbarium, but with flies
And it was my mom's, that's why
Well, I guess stealing stamps is better then?
Even more, it is classy!
Still requires a dumbass to do that
The one who did it must be a big big dumbass
Let's say, this dumbass, is a friend of yours
someone you know
- No way!
That's you, I knew it!
But why did you do that, what happened?
you're a letter carrier now?
No, nothing to do with my religion
I've used the stamps on my invitation cards, it's pretty
I couldn't know they were stamps from a stamps collection
And you didn't ask yourself questions when taking them out from a very fancy album
You didn't think "oh wow an album made with gold on it!"
It didn't raise eyebrows?
you do some messed up things I've noticed!
That's fine, the envelopes are in the hospital's mailbox
We can surely get them back alright!
- Oh really?
- Yes
- Ah that's fine, you just need the keys and you're sorted
- Yes, that's it
- Good, all is fine then
- Yes
- you got the keys?
- No
- And then, the Chinese guy tells him
"Sorry I cannot, I have no hands" (Chinese accent)
Please, do you mind?
Have I told you the one where the rabbi shags Cindy Crawford?
Yes, you told me three times already
Oh yeah three times already?
I am just doing that to help you before your surgery
I would have been sleeping quietly at home otherwise
I'd be relaxed
- I know that, thanks
You show dedication.
Can I have my pillow back?
Your pillow?
Oh I didn't notice!
- Also, do you know how a Mexican
- Shut up now!
What is happening Sir, I heard you from outside?
You need to sleep now, tomorrow's the big day!
That's not me, it's him
Oh look at the snitch!
What on earth are you doing here?
Hum, it's a bit complicated
- I just cannot go home
- Why?
I have no place to sleep
I'd like to sleep
Well, I don't know, you can stay at mine
Is there anyone there?
If I am suggesting, that's because it's empty
Here you go
It won't be possible then
that seems complicated, do you want to talk about it?
Yes, I'd like to actually
Could you turn off the light?
Sabri!
Stop stop! You want wake up the whole hospital?!
I don't want to lose my job and social benefits
Jamel
No matter the obstacles
Our friendship will remain unaffected
What are you talking about?
Just checking who has the most telescopic fingers
that's you, off you go
Wait, my muscles need to become supple
Why are you both still here?
On a friday night
Yes, yes, that's because, you know, we were leaving
No, actually we didn't know if we had forgotten something
So we came here to think a bit before leaving for good
So now, we're thinking
- you got your sweater?
- Yes, all good
- got your trousers?
- Yes, thought about it!
- Got both shoes?
- I got my two shoes!
Ok, good to go then!
Alright, Sabri, there are things worth not forgetting
See, for example, I won't amend your planning
So you're on duty on the 11th
the 12th, the 13th, the 14th and the 15th
You heard me well?
- The 13th.
- Yeah yeah
I hope you don't have anything scheduled on the 13th
You decide, as long as I have my evening off, I'm ok
Wait, you don't get it
You spend the night here in the hospital. The whole night.
Yes, I told you already, up to you!
As long as I have my evening off, I'm ok
Are you kidding or what?
Sabri, we all make mistakes. You can fix it.
I spent the whole night all by myself
And since that day
I cannot fall asleep if I'm alone
Not a big deal, there's a solution to all life's problems
No, there's nothing to do, no solution, that's crap
Of course there is, you can sleep here with me
- Enough with that
Stop that, you'll do a mess
We are going to get caught
- Sing, go on, sing!
- Don't we have better things to do?
Sing, sing, come on, sing. That's just to cover up the noise.
- What do I sing?
- Anything that comes to your mind
There is a house in New Orleans
Can't you sing something else? Anything else but that.
I will be hung tomorrow morning
Something else, please.
Go and get me a screwdriver
"Go and get me a screwdriver"
What's the tune of that song already?
Go on, you go first
Do you mind if I turn the TV on?
- Not at all
- Because I always fall asleep with it on!
- Ok, let's turn it off!
- Yes yes
Also, I've seen this one before. They are about to shag like beasts.
Very bad, zero, pointless.
I'm exhausted
I meant to tell you, that is so nice of you to have me in your bed
Don't worry about it, that's natural!
I mean it
It is so so nice of you
Stop it, I am telling you it is my pleasure
Well, may be not pleasure but let's say I do not mind
And see, all of this in good faith
Two friends like us should be able to sleep together without it getting weird
Friendship is a beautiful thing
Wait, what's that hard thing?
Oh excuse me!
What are you doing here?
Nothing, that's not what you think it is
Well I don't think anything
But you are not on duty, are you?
I am not
I know, but I sleep here, it's more practical
So I can get on with the job earlier
But you only work on Monday
Yes, Monday
So now I am sure I won't be late
What is that horrible thing?
That is my pyjamas top, can I please have it?
- This is yours for real?
- Yes
- What on earth are you doing?
- Wait a sec
I am looking for a screwdriver
- Oh yeah?
- Got it now
- Brilliant, alright thanks bye!
So tell me
Don't you think someone followed you today?
No, why?
Do I know her?
Can you please leave, I've things to get on with
Yes, sure, things to get on with
I can hear a man's steps
There are more or less two of them
Not more than 5 minutes away
The first one wears a plurple gabardine
The second one is laying on top of the other, no idea why
What happened here?
Oh, about that Sir, we were looking for you!
Hundreds of repeat offender vandals came
They broke everything in the hospital
They even tried to break the mailbox!
Crazy in the head
- Weren't they? yes or no?
- Yes!
They had very long blond hair, with mustaches, screaming like that
A little secret passage
Let's say for example I have put something in the box
And I would like to double check it, typos, stuff like that
I am sorry, to post is to post, to take back is to steal!
So are the rules!
Oh, that's some sick person's blood!
No no it's ketchup
We took samples from hospitals' canteens, for the laugh
Ah nice
By the way
About last night
I don't want you to think that together we
Ah stop, that's in the past!
I don't blame you, you can't be on top form all the time
- On what?
- On top form!
Hey, do not worry, that's natural
All men have ups and downs. A bit like an elevator.
Wait, an elevator?
See for example in sports
You have the guys playing first league
And you have the others, amateurs.
Well if you like them, you still watch the game
If you excuse me, I have work to do
Because I wouldn't like you to think that
Together, it is for life
I would prefer if we could stay friends
See you later
Béatrice put me in the confidence
What did she tell you?
Don't play dumb, you know what she said
Ah well I see now! This is how chicks are!
Ah well then she told you everything
You know about the elevators
The top form, the amateur league, laugh's over ok?
No but I would have just liked to be invited, that's all
- You would have liked to be invited?
- Yes
You are pretty open, aren't you?
When people are having fun, I like to take part
Slut!!
Did you ask to see me, Sir?
- Please enter, Jamel
- My name is Sabri, Sir
Yes that's what I meant, yes, Brazi, yes
Come on here, take a sit please
I need to tell you something
Yes
You know that
Some vermin
Stole my album
Yes, I am sorry for your loss
I am the one who's sorry for you
For real
Sorry, because this time
I won't be nice with you
I couldn't know, it's not my fault.
That's my birthday, so for the invitation cards, I thought
No no, say no more
It's hurting me, it's difficult enough already
Son, I wanted to give you
As a birthday present, a beautiful stamps album
I am sorry I lost it
I have ruined your life
I have ruined your birthday
I have failed in my duty
Come on Major!
Jamel
I think I made a mistake last night
Oh yeah?
I slept with Béa.
Béa?!
Don't tell me that's not true!
Not the Béa from Béa we both know, right?
Yes that's the thing, the Béa from Béa we both know
Did she threaten you with a knife?
Did she hold your mom as an hostage, what happened?
Wait, there's more
You slept with Professor Strauss?
The thing is that she told me that
I wasn't, hum, let's say
I wasn't on top form
Top form?
That's to say, you know, when someone gave you pleasure
But didn't really give you any
She said she didn't really feel much.
Ah that's it?
Don't worry too much about it, that's nothing
That's a well-known trick!
She said that so you that will surpass yourself next time
- Ah you think?
- I am positive
Girls always tell me that
And, usually, they tell me the same the time after
I know what I am talking about
Happy Birthday to you, Sabri
And there's no more letters
Now everybody is happy and equal
Hello Clara
you're alright?
Yes I am well, way better now
You don't seem in the best form though
Am I of interest to you now?
For you
I hope you will make it next Thursday
For my birthday
Sorry?
That's the invitation card
I ran out of stamps, so I decided to give it to you in person
That is very nice of you, but I
I'm not sure I can make it next Thursday because
I am still counting on you
That's on the 13th, right?
Do you dance?
Sure
I am in such a good form tonight!
Top form, I feel the power
You're holding me too tight
Béa, with that shape of mine tonight
Girls should be careful if they meet me
Stop it, you're hurting me
Excuse me
With all the things I took
I'm ready for the olympic games!
Get off me now!
All good here, no problem!
I just stepped on her foot!
Let's get this party started!
Hum, about what you told me last time
You know!
About your sexual tastes
What are you talking about?
Tonight
You will discover what pleasure really means
It is going to be ex-qui-site
It will only be the two of us, you don't mind?
Are you sick, stop it right now!
I stepped on our foot as well!
Are my feet big tonight or what?!
Let the party continue
The party must goes on (broken English)
Miss, about the dress, is it allowed around here?

Did she hold your mom as an hostage, what happened?
Wait, there's more
You slept with Professor Strauss?
The thing is that she told me that
I wasn't, hum, let's say
I wasn't on top form
Top form?
That's to say, you know, when someone gave you pleasure
But didn't really give you any
She said she didn't really feel much.
Ah that's it?
Don't worry too much about it, that's nothing
That's a well-known trick!
She said that so you that will surpass yourself next time
- Ah you think?
- I am positive
Girls always tell me that
And, usually, they tell me the same the time after
I know what I am talking about
Happy Birthday to you, Sabri
And there's no more letters
Now everybody is happy and equal
Hello Clara
you're alright?
Yes I am well, way better now
You don't seem in the best form though
Am I of interest to you now?
For you
I hope you will make it next Thursday
For my birthday
Sorry?
That's the invitation card
I ran out of stamps, so I decided to give it to you in person
That is very nice of you, but I
I'm not sure I can make it next Thursday because
I am still counting on you
That's on the 13th, right?
Do you dance?
Sure
I am in such a good form tonight!
Top form, I feel the power
You're holding me too tight
Béa, with that shape of mine tonight
Girls should be careful if they meet me
Stop it, you're hurting me
Excuse me
With all the things I took
I'm ready for the olympic games!
Get off me now!
All good here, no problem!
I just stepped on her foot!
Let's get this party started!
Hum, about what you told me last time
You know!
About your sexual tastes
What are you talking about?
Tonight
You will discover what pleasure really means
It is going to be ex-qui-site
It will only be the two of us, you don't mind?
Are you sick, stop it right now!
I stepped on our foot as well!
Are my feet big tonight or what?!
Let the party continue
The party must goes on (broken English)
Miss, about the dress, is it allowed around here?
