You really think he should go to the toilet with his mother?
You think he should mourn my absence in his father's arms?
By the way, did you call the caterer for the wedding?
Yeah...
Madam Bensmir...
It's Ben Smires!
For the last time, you're not supposed to sleep here. These are offices.
Yeah, well, I'm working. All I do is work!
Yes, my demo tape.
Absolutely.
Yes, on Soundcloud, three weeks ago. Julio Saldenha.
No, Saldenha.
Yeah.
Well, it has 12,000 plays, so that's something!
OK. Yes, I understand.
Well, thank you. Goodbye.

EMILIE.CHATAIGNE75 COMMENTED: FINALLY SOME NEWS FROM THE GUAPA CHICA!
@ELSAPAYETTE REPLIED
You ready?
Milou liked my photo from Argentina.
- Fuck, it's the girls! - What? Oh, shit!
- They've replaced you. - But that's not them, silly!
- It's here, right? - It's here. Here, here, here.
- Here? - Yes, right here.
Great. OK.
OK...
Oh, shoot.
Give Instagram a break some times.
Relax, I hardly use it. Look, I'm putting it away.
- Right, give me that. - OK.
- Right...
- I'm not leaving until you get that job. - OK.
- OK? - Yeah.
- OK. - Go get them. You're the best!
- Yes. - Hey, Elsa?
Yes?
- What? Here? - Yeah.
No, it's... I don't know.
- What? No... - Yes.
Oh, you're such a pain. There's nothing. You're so stupid.
Check your pocket.
PIOTR KAMINSKY FOUNDATION
Oh, a tiny pipe! Thanks, I love it.
Right, good luck.
This is the last time you're allowed to lie.
- OK. OK. - OK? Fingers crossed.
Alright.
Oh, shit.
So, I have lots of ideas for your incubator project.
So...
I'd like to dedicate it to businesses founded by women who come from...
from educational priority areas, I mean, now we say networks.
And, admittedly, after working at City Hall...
I needed to...
to make sense of things.
A kind of...
well, of inner harmony.
I needed...
Retreat?
Retreat...
Death.
Travel?
Plane.
- Horizon. - Horizon...
Horizon, travel, horizon...
Shoot, uh...
Ah, yes! I also spent four months in Buenos Aires.
Argentina...
Yes.
- Sign... - Duck!
Mr. Kaminsky said that because I lived there for a while.
But don't worry about Piotr.
He's frugal with words.
He decided to spare the earth
and to limit his carbon footprint by using fewer words.
Yes. Of course, yes.
The woman with the fan crosses the bridge over the fresh river. Yes.
Walking on the right. Yes, yes.
Contact.
Together.
What?
Guess who rocks? It's Elsa!
Guess who starts tomorrow? It's Elsa!
You're the best, my love.
I'm proud of you!
I knew it!
- Give me your phone, let me take a pic. - Yes. Here you go.
- Ready? - Yes!
Wait...
Wow!
- Right, so, how was it? - It was awesome.
You can finally stop lying to the girls and tell them you're back.
Oops!
- Careful. - Yeah.
Cheers and adios, Buenos Aires!
- Yeah! Adios! - Adios! Cheers!
Yeah, adios, Buenos!
Actually, I've been thinking about it,
and I don't necessarily have to say I'm back.
Oh, but we've already discussed this, haven't we?
Yes, we have but we didn't all necessarily see eye to eye.
- I mean, did we? I don't know... - Oh, yes, we did.
- We did. - Yes, we did.
- Fine, I'll do it. - Go on, then.
Wow! Elsa's back, can you believe it, my love?
No way, that's awesome! Since when?
Look, honey, it's Elsa!
And... yes! Your first like!
On your fourth month anniversary!
Happy birth month to you
Sing!
Happy birth month, dear Eddy
- And Daddy forgot this again - Happy birth month to you
- Here. - The eco disposable diapers were easier.
Well, yes, polluting is always easier.
- Show me the pic. - No, come on.
@ELSAPAYETTE: NEW JOB, NEW LIFE! #BACKINPARIS
Who's going to see their Auntie Zaza?
Huh? Who? It's my little baby!
She's not that tanned.
- It's the lighting. - Is it?
It's because she used a filter.
You think so?
I'm sorry, but who are you?
- Arthur, our new intern! - Yeah.
He's 22, from HEC. 300 euros a month. Bargain.
And not bad-looking, either.
We just received the goodies, I'll unwrap them.
Go for it.
You do realize this is the business's money you're spending?
- Uh... yes. - We're three months late on rent.
We need to invest. Trust your boss a little!
Right. Hey, nice shirt.
- You like it? It's... - Right, I'm off!
- Work hard, my little bees! - Thanks.
See you!
- Were you going to see her without me? - Huh?
- What? - What?
- No... - Well, then!
- Well, then, let's go? - Yes!
Alright, let's go.
Incubator...
Location...
Incubator... Oh, have I found a location for the incubator?
- Well, no, but I was thinking... - Barge.
- Boat. - Stop.
Alright.
It's a call for projects to convert a barge on the quays of the Seine.
Ah, but that's perfect.
- City Hall. - City Hall...
Paris. Paris City Hall.
- They're managing the call for tenders. - Ah, amazing. Amazing.
Paris City Hall. And by "us," they mean...
CONTACT US
Maxime Pauillac.
Perfect. Absolutely.
I'm on it.
Hello.
I can't believe she's in the same city as me.
You think she'll call me?
Oh, yes. Well, right after me.
Because "Chantal" is right before "Cunt" in her contact list.
Oh, fuck, it's her.
It's her.
Fuck, what should I do?
What should I do? What should I do?
I don't know! Pick up, maybe? That would be a start.
Yeah, it would. I should do that.
Hey! Elsa.
Yes, hello.
Elsa Payette speaking.
So...
Yeah, I mean, you're Elsa.
You weren't gone for a decade.
I've thought about you a bit, but now...
It's... It's quite something, hearing your voice.
- It's overwhelming. - Well, yes...
It's really interesting.
I'm actually calling because I need you to give me a bit of a hand.
Uh, totally.
A bit of a hand for work!
Totally. No worries.
That's...
I'm actually calling about your call for tenders,
because my boss, Piotr Kaminsky,
is very interested in competing...
I'll give you everything.
And also...
It's important that we see each other really, really soon,
so that we can visit the barge, just you and me.
I mean, together. As soon as possible.
But... We should totally do it today.
I mean, if, like, now... Would it be possible for you, right now?
Yes, let's do that.
OK, well...
I'll give you the address and I'll see you later.
- Right, well, I love you. I... - Send me all the info.
- Kisses. - OK.
- Thank you, sir. - Ciao, Elsa.
How was I? Was I good or...
Was it too... Do you have any Rescue Remedy, please?
- On top of the Lexo? - On top of the Lexo. Rescue, please.
You really need to start seeing someone again.
- I mean, like a therapist. - Yeah.
Fuck, she's barely back and she's already landed a job!
Such a winner, like yours truly.
What the fuck is she doing?
- Don't worry, she'll need lunch. - Right.
Fuck, fuck, fuck!
She's so cute!
- Her butt looks bigger, doesn't it? - Yeah, a little bit.
- Right, time for your little surprise! - Yes!
- What? I'll go talk to her. - Pick up! What are you doing?
- No! - What? But...
I'm going. Nobody puts Milou in the corner!
Sure, but you can tell she doesn't want to see us!
For fuck's sake, we got four crappy texts in four months!
Not even texts, just signs of life.
She got back, we don't know when. She got a new job, we don't know what.
Now she's ignoring us? We're her BFFs, this isn't cool!
- Well, we were her BFFs. - Yeah, I was her BFF.
We need to understand. She just got back. Maybe she needs time.
Oh, yeah? To do what?
- To dump us once and for all? - Why would she do that?
The truth is at the end of the road, Charlotte.
Eek, I love it!
- Follow me! - OK.
OK, we're good.
Alright...
- Alright! - Yeah, I know.
Hi.
- You look great. - Thanks.
You too.
- Yeah, sorry, I didn't have time to... - No, it's...
I've been dreaming about this for four months.
This is...
a meatball sandwich, your favorite.
You do know this is a professional meeting, right?
So, I mean, you...
- Yeah. - Yeah.
Wait, no.
No, no. It's just, uh...
- Shall we? - Yeah.
Maxime?
- Wait, she's seeing Maxime before us? - No way.
We want to make it accessible to start-ups, to remote workers,
and we want to offer induction events,
so that women can feel supported, like small eggs in a large incubator.
- You know, open to organizations... - Where were you in Buenos?
Uh, I was...
I was near the Casa del Despacito.
And so, we want to create a really welcoming place to...
Have you seen the girls since you got back?
No.
- This is really something... - Something wrong?
Uh, not at all. But, uh...
Anyway, let's get to the point. To the winning point!
Max, how can I win this call for tenders?
After all we had to put up with when he got depressed about her...
- He could have at least told us. - Totally.
- At least, he's not the... - Yeah.
- You know, the... - I get it.
You know who I mean, the one who...
Yes, I get it! You're like a broken record. Earth to Milou!
- Come on, focus! - Sorry.
I'm such a douche.
You actually don't want to see me. You don't want to see us anymore.
You just need me for work but you actually don't really care about our group.
I'm sorry.
I thought I could, but I can't. I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry... - Hang on! Wait, wait, wait. Max!
On the contrary, I care about you guys a lot!
Don't leave. Look. See? Let me just...
I'm sending a text...
There we go.
To all our pals.
We'll spend the evening together, it will be awesome!
OK? There we go.
- Did that send? - Yeah, look.
I sent it to everyone in our group, OK?
- Feel better? - Yeah.
OK.
You think everything will go back to how it used to be?
Absolutely.
Except for your vagina because since you gave birth...
Not funny. Not funny.
Nice try, but you see, it's not funny.
Well spotted!
ELSA: CELEBRATING MY RETURN TONIGHT. THE FOX IS IN THE HENHOUSE!
TIME TO MEET THE REAL JULIO!
- It seems we're seeing each other later. - How come?
Elsa's back.
Because Elsa's back?
Oh, fuck!
- You talk too much. - I can't hear anything.
- Come on. - That wasn't very sportsmanlike.
Come on.
THE ALIBI
Yeah!
WELCOME HOME
You look so pretty!
Whoa! Hey! Yeah!
- It's an Argentinian llama! - So it is!
It cost me an arm and a leg. Anyway, who cares...
- Yeah, OK. - Look who's here!
Look who's here!
- Whoa! - Yep.
- See how he looks like me! - Just don't wake him up.
Sorry, sorry. He's so beautiful...
He's definitely more of a Ben Smires than a...
- Totally! - Hey!
My nephew is so beautiful!
You even...
Come on! Ready?
Elsa!
- That was fun, it's the Patio del Prata. - Where is it?
- In Prata. - Ah, right.
- I know about Prata! - Whatever.
And this place was wonderful, it's La Casa del Rey.
- Whoa, La Casa del Rey! - The king's house!
Yeah, that's right.
- We missed you so much! - Four months without us!
- How did you survive? - I don't know!
I missed you so much. Like crazy.
You know, your photos almost look professional.
- I mean, you're super talented! - Yeah, you are!
But it's a shame, you're never in them.
It's true.
The composition is weird: random body parts but no Elsa.
But they're arty pics, don't you get it?
- Seriously. - Whatever, I'm going for a smoke.
- It's so beautiful! - Yeah.
How are things with Matt?
Good. Well, it's over, you know?
Oh, you didn't know? Because...
No worries, it's all good between us. We're still colleagues.
Well, I'm his boss!
- "El patron..." "El patronas"! - "El patron..."
- "El patronas"! - "El patronas"!
- Stop it. - Sorry.
- Here you go. - Yeah!
So? I don't imagine you ate many of these in Buenos Aires...
- No, she ate burritos! - That's Mexican.
- Fajitas! - Also Mexican.
- Empanadas! - There we go!
It's on me!
Chupito!
I read that article...
We were wondering, did you have a boyfriend in Buenos Aires?
- Well, no... - No?
- No. - Any news from the hooker?
- Stop it, don't call him that. - Why? Did he find another job?
Well, yes.
Well, I mean...
- No. I mean, I don't know. Maybe. - Yeah, whatever, we don't care.
Well, I...
- I'm going to poop. - Sure, OK.
WHERE ARE YOU? YOU DON'T HAVE TO COME IF YOU DON'T WANT TO...
- DON'T YOU WANT ME TO COME? - I DO.
I MEAN, IT'S UP TO YOU.
I'M COMING.
- It's Jeannine Tattoo. - Jeannine Tattoo.
- So, we're changing names now?
Oh, Julio!
- How are you? - What's up, man?
- You OK? - Yeah, cool!
- Hi, girls. - Hi.
Hey, Julio!
- You OK? - Yeah.
- Nice of you to come to my little party! - I wouldn't miss it.
I mean, he's not wearing a costume.
- He's not playing along so... - You, on the other hand...
- Very classy! - Well, thanks.
This is... This is cool.
We're super glad you're here, it's...
- I'm super glad, too. - Yeah.
- Looks like you're still doing deliveries? - Well observed. Absolutely.
So, what do you deliver? Your tiny package?
Chupito... Chupito!
- Well, cheers! - What the hell is he doing here?
- Come! I'll get you a drink. - Who invited him?
- Excuse me, can we have two shots, please? - It's nice to see you.
- Poor guy is so dumb. - She seems to be happy.
Have a drink, man!
Oh, you look hot!
- Very hot. - You're sweating.
- I'm going outside. - Go for it.
- Yeah, you're a bit... Yeah. - Go get some fresh air.
- So, when are we telling them? - Well...
Thanks.
Look at you, though. Why did you come dressed like this?
I thought we were showing them the real Julio?
Yes, but you're not just a delivery man.
I mean, you're... You're a musician too, aren't you?
He's never going to drop it.
Look at her, she feels so bad, poor girl.
She's pulling her asthmatic hake face.
- No, we can't let this happen. - Totally, we've only just made up.
I don't want to rush anything.
I want them to get used to you.
I want you to become friends with my friends.
And what, to do that, I need to be like them?
Nah.
I've played this game before. It's not my thing, you know that.
We've been together for four months and...
What are you doing?
Well, I'm supposed to have been away, I'm telling you about Buenos.
Right...
Get off the horse, please. How long is this going to last?
Just long enough for them to get used to you.
Four more parties like this and they'll be begging us to get back together.
Know what? Given how they're looking at me, I doubt they'll get used to me.
So, honestly, I'm really not into this game.
I should leave. See you later at my place?
Jeez, look at him, poor guy...
He was so happy she came back.
- Well, bye. - You're leaving already?
- That's a shame! - Let's... do this again.
- Of course! Yeah. - We'd love to!
Wait for me, man, I'm tired, I think I'm going home.
Take the baby, then. Pacifier, sleep sack and bed.
- There you go. - I'm off, then. Ciao.
- OK, OK. Coming with me, man? - Yeah, I'm a bit wasted, I'm gonna...
Yes, I think that's a good idea.
Chupitos!
Chupitos! Chupitos! Chupitos!
I was actually really scared it wouldn't be the same...
- Really? - Yeah.
- But I've really missed you. - What? You thought you wouldn't?
Well...
You're never leaving again. Nothing will come between us again.
I need to...
- I need to get home. - Oh, yeah?
- But where are you living? - Oh, yeah!
Right here, actually.
- Yeah. - Cool.
- Yeah.
- Let's meet up soon? - Yeah, promise.
- Like tomorrow? - Yeah, I... I'll call you.
- OK, cool. - Tomorrow, then.
- Good night! - See you tomorrow!
Kisses!
Tschüss!
- I'm watching you leave! - OK!
- Good night! - Good night!
Sweet dreams!
- You OK? - Yeah, and you?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
So, how did the staged return go?
Yeah, not bad, not bad.
I don't know, it wasn't...
I wasn't super at ease with the girls.
I don't think it was...
It wasn't like it used to be.
I found them a bit...
I found them a bit uptight.
I don't know.
Elsa was acting weird tonight with Jules, I mean, Julio.
What if she falls for him again?
- That would be hell. - Impossible.
There's no such thing as zero risk.
I have a genius idea.
Max.
- Maxime Pauillac. - The llama? Hell, no.
Wait, what? When you go fishing, you take bait!
- Great. Max... Talk about bait! - He's almost nice now he's depressed.
That's the meds, they make you soft in the head.
And the dick, too, by the way.
- Well, at least, he's not a hooker. - Right.
- And he's always hanging out with us. - That's good for our group.
Maxime Pauillac. The perfect son-in-law.
Shall we go to bed?
Well, I don't know.
Aren't we waiting for your friends to get used to me?
Well, I actually told them after you left.
What did you tell them?
Well, I told them that...
that I stayed for you...
in Paris.
That I love you.
That you're the love of my life.
And...
And it was pretty intense. Yeah.
But, yeah, that's done now, so let's not talk about it anymore?
I don't think I'm going to see them again anyway, so...
OK?
All that matters is that you're being honest with me.
Yes. You coming?
