Woke (2017–2018): Season 2, Episode 2 - Le bannir - full transcript

Thibaut is summoned by the board of the G-Spot and by the district's Mayor. He must explain his recent actions. Can the G-Spot still be saved? Can he?

IVAN ALEKSEEV
HONORARY CONSULATE OF RUSSIA

WOKE
BANISH HIM

Mr. Giaccherini.

Close the door behind you.

VIRGINIE TELLER
MAYOR

So, I heard

you rocked the house
at Point G yesterday?

POINT G IS CLOSED INDEFINITELY
SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE

Hi.

See you tomorrow?

Okay. Thanks a lot, Hugo.



Don't fret, I'll find something.

One of my friends has a hotel.
He owes me one.

What's happening?

The death threats
sent to the Russians;

everyone knows it's you.

- How would you?
- I'm leaving.

Do you know how many cameras
are on the peninsula?

The City ordered
an administrative closure.

How long will it last? A week?

Thibaut,

Kenza is coming tomorrow.

She was to live
here for a few days.

She's on the streets!

Are you proud of yourself?



You're the best I've seen
at self-destruction.

You don't have to be alone
with that stuff.

As the association's president,

you had other means of actions
at you disposal.

That's what I thought...

What do we do at
the board after all?

Ten endless, worthless meeting!

We all had to attend
these meetings.

That depends on you.

- They're worthless..
- That depends on you.

We can't settle anything
without debates.

We have to be respected too.

You think you can change
the world by beating it up.

We don't understand
why you did it!

Of course you wouldn't get it!

Nobody does, Thibaut.

- Alright.
- What's that?

This was in the local press

on the genocide
of Gays in Chechnya.

And this was after the thing

at the Consulate!

We'll be able to take action now
that the media is covering it.

And even use it to
promote Gay Pride.

They'll talk about
us everywhere.

That's your goal, Thibaut?

That they talk about you?

You didn't even care about
the issues we were pushing.

- He cared!
- Oh, come on, stop it.

He didn't remember Kenza coming.

Great, let's help Kenza.

One refugee; then what?

It'll make you feel better,
but it's not the real issue.

Tell us what is it then?

Structural racism in Europe,
the indecency

of reception conditions,

the closing of public baths.

Your friends' politics.

If we don't act upon it,
it's all for nothing.

Laurent asked me
to mediate things

with the local government

because he knew
I would understand.

It was doomed from the start.

There's something I don't get.

Why am I talking to you
and not the cops?

You know,
that video surveillance,

unless we edit it,

even your own mother
wouldn't recognize you!

She would first have to
know what I look like!

Have you heard of the new
luxury shopping complex?

A great public-private partnership,
according to the local government.

It turns out that 80% of these
private funds are Russian.

So, an association
subsidized by the City,

who sends death threats
to the Consulate.

It'd be bad if people
knew about it.

I was able to strike a deal.

The Municipal
Police will stop there.

It is a direct order
from the local government.

Officially, the investigation
was unsuccessful.

On the other hand, Point G should
exclude you from the association.

It reopens tonight,
just in time to welcome Kenza.

And what's your interest in it?

Excuse me?

You saved my ass.

I imagine there's a reason.

Your leaflets during the
campaign, the Mercoeur case...

They're happy to get rid of you.

I too understand
they want to get rid of me.

But it will be on my terms.

- You didn't answer my question.
- I did.

But you didn't' listen. Now go!

Alright ugly,

did you come to yell at me too?

Didn't you have enough?

Thibaut...

It was me...
I told them it was you.

- How did you know?
- Well,

you told me about it once.

You told me
you were thinking about it.

I'm surprised you forgot with
all you had to drink that night.

I was worried
about the association, you see?

Next year will mark
Point G's 20th anniversary.

I was there when we created it.

I understand. Don't worry.
What are you going to do now?

Elect Laurent as president?

We're meeting tonight.

Mickaël is furious.

Liao and him aren't coming.

Wait.

Stall for time, okay?

I'll let you know.

- Close the door behind you!
- Let me know about what?

- Hicham?
- Hi.

- I need your help.
- No, Thibaut.

Hicham, you gotta be back
on the board.

I made a mistake. I'm sorry.

- You forgave Mercceur.
- Why are you talking to me

about Mercceur?

- It's always about you.
- About me?

- I helped you out.
- Did you?

- You don't wanna talk!
- Did you?

Fine, let's talk!

What happened with your ex?

I met him, you know?

What happened when
you guys broke up?

So? Tell me!

I guess you don't wanna talk!

- Welcome, Kenza.
- Welcome.

PP

Hi, Hicham. It's Ligia.

Ifs the annual gala for Gay Pride
tomorrow night at Cabaret Bleu.

And since you've
been talking about it,

I thought we could meet up then?

We can hang around, talk.

I won't be cooking this time.

I have something
important to tell you.
