Woke (2017–2018): Season 1, Episode 6 - S'acharner - full transcript

Thibaut wants to reintroduce the idea of outing Amaury Mercoeur to protest his public support of the homophobic district mayor. With Claude, Thibaut strategizes for a confrontation with Laurent which will not finish as planned at all.

Murielle's the key.

If the lesbians vote with us...

What?

No one wants to
out him and Hicham...

You can't decide
because of what Hicham thinks!

Hicham, Hicham, Hicham!
Bullshit!

He's so polite.
I know what he's like.

He always agrees with everyone.

A product of the modern world.

May '68 was such a shock,
at the top,

they made sure the people
that came after stayed in line.



There are exceptions,
of course, like you.

The others are
a lost generation.

- OK, Hicham?
- Good. You?

You never said how you two met.

I stayed on
his parents' campsite.

They've got a campsite?

You kept that quiet!

Paul's running 15 minutes late.
We'll start when he gets here.

Of course, Laurent.

Hi.

Woke Episode 6 - Attacking

That's better.
A bit more serious.

Yes, I agree.

- Hi, Nadjet.
- Hi.



Your brother says hi.

That'd be a surprise.

It's a big change for him.
He just needs a bit of time.

Murielle,
have you got 5 minutes?

Sure - 5 minutes.
Let's have dinner later.

OK. I'll be here.

I know, you want me
to back your little project.

Not only.
Laurent's taking the group over.

And he's criticizing
the women's evening.

Says who?

We're behind it, in theory.

We're not saying
it's discriminatory.

We need action,
but outing him is disgusting.

You should be happy
we're beefing things up a bit.

We were too good
to them last time.

OK, guys.

You talk the talk,
but will it get through?

We can score points if...

We'll be ready for the big one
in September.

- OK.
- Yes!

I'll see.

No one's questioning
the work that's been done,

but no one's hearing us.

Pasturel's attack on the march
was full on.

Paul, please.

This came this morning.

A letter of apology
from Pasturel.

The result of considered action.

Publish it.

It's a private letter.

A private apology
for a public statement?

Get back down to earth.

He said something stupid.
Let's move on.

Who signed the letter?
Was it Pasture!?

Or Amaury Mercoeur?

Tell everyone about
your links to him.

I'm not going
to feed your fantasies, Thibaut.

I said what I thought. Amaury
had nothing to do with it.

But you were speaking
on behalf of G Spot.

Pasturel marches every year
against abortion.

He didn't turn homophobic
and sexist overnight.

We need a hard line.

I want to know, Laurent, are
you going to keep on bending over

for you lawyer friends?

You bend over a
lot more than me.

- Come on now.
- Do you think that's funny?

I think there's more to say
about Mercoeur.

Can't you move on?

Amaury's mother is an old lady.

I'm definitely against.

I have enough problems.

I'd rather go.
I don't want this.

- We can't out him.
- What he said was disgusting.

Is Pride indecent and dangerous?

- That's not the point.
- What is?

We're activists!

People do what they can.
Don't judge them.

Look at you.

You want perfect gays.

Right?

Meaning?

I know your parents don't know.

You'd look silly if
Amaury outed you.

Thibaut.

I get it, now.

It's not freedom. It's a bubble.

But what I don't get

is that I found you online.
At G Spot.

My family would never see that.

Amaury doesn't deserve to be...

I can out Amaury on my, own.
I don't need those fuckers.

What for?

Just to humiliate him?

Hey!

Not everyone that disagrees
with you is an idiot, Thibaut.

OK, I'm hungry.

Are you coming, dickhead?

- What are you doing here?
- What's your plan?

- Answer me.
- No one's going to out you.

Thibaut agrees.

The attack on
Pride was a strategy.

Pasturel's political support
grew when you retaliated.

He's the party leader now and he's
standing in the elections.

You defend that?

The mayor pushes every contract
to his friends' businesses.

That's his Achilles heel.

I don't back Pasturel.

Anyway, he'll never win in Lyon.

No one can know
how you got this.

Will you be OK?

Yes.

This is daft,
but I'm proud of you.

That was a better
win than outing him.

There'd have been no win

if I hadn't threatened them.

Let's go out.

It's been ages
since I came here.

Yes, Claude. What?

What a fucker!

I'm on my way.

- Did you call him?
- No.

If you need a phone,
Paul left us his as a gift.

There's no one at his place.
I went round.

The account's empty. The
president's taken everything.
