You didn't ask any questions,
I don't need to,
But I do, I need this job,
You got me to come here so I want an interview,
Wait, I didn't ask you to come,
You even sent a reminder,
You're Arnaud Lasserre, right?
That's your name,
"Come to the property for a job interview,"
I didn't make it up,
KIND REGARDS, ARNAUD LASSERRE
Please, I really need this job,
Are you bringing backup?
Good, We're behind schedule and I want to pull out
before the cavalry arrives,
Valentin, show her the ropes, Put her on plot two,
She can stay at the campsite,
Mathieu,
I'm starting right now?
So it seems,
Hi, Valentin,
Alba,
Welcome to the estate,
- Follow me, - Can you give me a minute?
I'll be right back,
I got the gig!
- Did you say "multi-skilled"? - Yeah,
They even throw in a place to stay,
It's three weeks' work, okay?
Then after that, you and me,,, Barcelona, baby!
Unless he finds us first,
Never,
You grab the stem and break it off with your nail,
There you go!

Right,
INCOMING CALL

And I'm the Queen of England!
Here you go, boss,
Thanks, Valentin,
INCOMING CALL
- Where are you? - I swear if you call me again,,,
- Where are you? - What did you expect?
That I'd let you screw me over?
You called the judge behind my back,
And that's what a good mother does? Run off?
Take a child out of school?
You've got no claim to him,
- That'll be for the courts to decide, - Right,
Meanwhile, go fuck yourself, Dad,
Is there a problem?
No, Sorry, I'll head back now,
Plan to keep this act up for long?
Sorry?
Why did you come here?
Dad?
They're here, You coming?
On my way,
Meet me tomorrow, before the others arrive,
A word of advice,
Don't tell anyone,
Omar!
- How are you? - Great! You?
Good,
You okay? What's the matter?
Nothing, don't worry,
Okay, repeat after me,
LEARN SPANISH
"I'm looking for work,"
I'm looking for work,
What? I speak great Spanish,
You know they speak Catalan there?
Stop being such a smart alec!
Go on, your turn,
I'm,,, a very,,, kind and intelligent boy,
Sure, that's how I'll introduce myself in class,
I know the last few days haven't been easy,
But I swear it'll work out,
I can feel it,
We can start from scratch there,
The hard times are nearly over,
- Want some water? - Yeah,
How do you say "water"?
- Guapo? - Agua,
- Like Alba, - No,
What does alba mean?
A beautiful landscape?
I've told you a hundred times,
- Dawn, - Oh,
Nice, huh?
Mr Lasserre?
Anybody there?
No!
What's happened?
Fuck!
Alba,,,
- Alba, - What?
- I,,, - Tell me, What is it?
Call an ambulance!
Come on!
Immediately on the right,
It's okay, They're coming,
No!
Quick! He's over there,
No!
Dad,
Léo!
Grab your things, We're leaving,
- Get an IV set up, - Okay,
Ketamine 10!
- Morning, ladies, - Good morning,
Take their statements,
Wait,
I need to talk to you,
What's happening? Did Grandpa find us?
Mum, what's going on?
Stay hidden,
Can I help you?
Alba Mazier? You work on the Lasserre estate, right?
Yeah, why?
There's been an incident and we're questioning all staff,
Follow me, please,
I can answer your questions here,
No, we'd rather you came to the station,
It's a formality, Won't take long,
- I'll get my car keys, - Wait,
I'll take you,
Dust the vat for prints, please,
Go ahead,
All good, I've got her,
- I want everything we have on her, - Okay, no problem,
Thanks for your cooperation,
One of your employees saw her running away,
We've looked into her, She has a criminal record,
A record? What for?
Violence, theft, drugs,,,
You didn't check?
No, Hiring seasonal workers was my dad's domain,
Like many things on the estate,
- Hold on, Show me her photo again, - Of course,
Yes, I saw her,
I saw them talking in private yesterday,
I interrupted their conversation,
How were things between them? Friendly, hostile?
I don't know, It's hard to say,
Lucie, try, please,
Was your father shouting at her?
Or was he trying to charm her?
Did your husband often "charm" his employees, Mrs Lasserre?
Arnaud had charisma, And he knew it,
But he was a decent man,
You trusted him?
In marriage, love is just the starting point,
What makes it last
is trust, obviously,
Otherwise, was there nothing
unusual about yesterday?
Anything?
Yesterday? What happened yesterday?
- Here you are, - Thank you,
Thank you,
No, nothing in particular,
You good? I've been twiddling my thumbs in here for hours,
Better get used to it, The French justice system is very slow,
First you twiddle your thumbs here,
- Then in prison awaiting trial, - Prison?
Yes, for murdering your boss,
What?
You were at the estate when Mr Lasserre was killed,
- Rubbish, - You ran before the police arrived,
I never left the campsite, My alarm didn't go off,
Really? That's funny,
So how come a speed camera puts you under a mile from the scene?
That's not me,
- Look closely, - It's not me,
It's some other girl, Sorry, but it's obvious,
Okay, So some woman stole your car and then brought it back,
Fill it up for you too?
Right, worst carjacking ever,
But it's full of weirdos, that campsite,
Unbelievable,
We're going to have fun, you and me,
I didn't kill the guy, I didn't even know him,
I'd just started, Why would I do that?
Why didn't you mention the signing?
It's no use mixing Oris up in this,
- We're lying to the police now? - Lucie, I didn't lie to anyone,
I just protected your future,
You'd need children to understand,
- Think we'll have another chance to sign? - Maybe,
It's an awful thing to say, but with your father gone,,,
Yeah, that is awful,
By the way, your picker-killer,,,
She's 25, comes from Saint-Étienne,
She's got a son, and it seems she's into tattoos,
How do you know?
Poor kid,
Right, I'll go then,
My deepest condolences,
Good morning,
- Béatrice, - Jacques,
You really didn't need to come,
You must be joking, Arnaud wasn't only a client, He was a true friend,
I'm shocked by his brutal death, I can't imagine how you feel,
But I have a delicate question for you,
Did Arnaud tell you he'd changed his will?
Huh? When?
Six months ago,
- Mum, did you know? - No, of course not, No,
I think that, given the circumstances,
I should disclose the changes to you immediately,
- Why were you there so early? - I wasn't,
What do you mean?
Can I talk to you for a sec?
Something wrong?
What's that?
- Is there a problem? - No, it's just,,,
I'm thinking of the times you said you didn't know Arnaud Lasserre,
But we just received a document from the Lasserre family solicitor,
It ought to interest you,
"I, the undersigned, Arnaud Lasserre,
born on 7th July 1960,
bequeath my whole estate in equal shares to my four heirs,
Béatrice Lasserre, née Morel,
my son, Mathieu Lasserre, my daughter, Lucie Lasserre,,,"
"And my other daughter,
Alba Mazier,"
Is this some kind of joke?
So,,, you've known all along and you didn't say anything?
I was bound by client confidentiality, Only Arnaud could tell you,
It seems he chose to keep it secret,
- Mum? - Yes?
Have you nothing to say?
I told you a hundred times, That guy's not my dad,
- I know who my dad is! - The solicitor's authenticated it,
But I don't know him!
I don't know him! I'd never seen him before I turned up on his estate,
Yet as of this morning, a quarter of it belongs to you,
Bit of a step up,
Pretty good motive for murder,
Especially for a girl like you,
What does that mean?
A girl like you, A delinquent, an outcast, a junkie,
That's all over now,
You know what they say, "You can take the girl out of the country,,,"
One last thing,
If you hoped to hit the jackpot by killing Arnaud Lasserre,
you should have done your homework,
Article 726 of the Civil Code excludes from inheritance
any person convicted of the crime
of intentionally causing the death of the deceased,
I don't understand, What does that even mean?
It means that if the court finds her guilty of killing Dad,
she'll be disinherited,
She won't get a thing,
Nothing at all,
Shame,
I didn't kill him!
I can see it in your eyes,
You're afraid, You're hiding something,
Am I interrupting?
Bit rude to start without me,
And you are?
Manon Simoni, defence lawyer, I'd like to consult with my client,
Now,
Thanks,
Where'd you come from?
Who's sent you?
Nobody,
But as far as I know, you don't have a defence lawyer,
So voilà, It's my job to get you out of here,
What happened this morning?
Fine, Won't be me doing the time, As you wish,
Arnaud Lasserre asked me to meet him on the estate,
- Why? - I don't know,
I was scared I'd lose the job, so I went,
And that's when I found him,
Why did you run off?
Forgive me if I panicked a bit,
With my record, I knew the cops would pin it on me,
And here we are,
Listen, I think I can get you out of custody,
But one, you have to trust me,
And two, whatever I say, keep quiet,
Thanks for the break, It's given me time to think,
Must have been novel,
Let me tell you how I see it,
I think you came to Grasse to ask your biological father for money,
But old man Lasserre didn't react as you'd hoped,
He wanted to reconnect, make up for lost time,
But that wasn't really what you had in mind, was it?
So you decided the best way to get the money was to kill him,
Except you know nothing about French law,
No jackpot for you,
Detective, you've got no DNA, no weapon,
Just a blurry photo and a witness who, as we all know,
is a lifelong bootlicker,
And when I say "boot", I'm being polite,
Careful now,
You're so fixated on my client, you can't see that the family are lying,
Meaning?
The day before the murder was far from normal,
It was the day the Lasserre family had all been waiting for,
They day their future would be assured,
Maison Oris, one of the biggest perfume houses,,,
Omar,
,,,wanted to buy the estate to get exclusive rights to the roses,
allowing the Lasserres to stay on as managers,
The family would save their land and finally be rich again,
Only,,,
I'm not signing,
It's a joke, You're kidding, right?
Are you having a funny turn, dear?
You don't want to step aside,
Without the sale, we're finished,
I don't get it, Arnaud, After months of negotiating,,,
Someone in this room has chosen to play with me,
So let's play,
How do you know all this?
Because I was there,
I'm Arnaud Lasserre's granddaughter,
We're such fragile things
Said my friend the rose this morn
At dawn I was born And christened in the dew
I blossomed Happy and full of love
Yet I was so beautiful
The most beautiful, even Of all the flowers in your garden
in Grasse,
You think you're funny?
See this Grand Cru?
I'd planned to toast the sale with it,
I was going to put it away, but I thought, "No, why should I?"
Tomorrow I could be dead,
Or you,
Is that a threat?
I deserve Oris' money as much as you do,
You and your fucking flowers,
- I've had enough of your vie en rose! - You got the life you wanted,
I never forced you,
You want to play? Fine, Are you behind all this?
All what? What game?
No, you know what? You've lost your mind!
I'll tell you what, the kids are right, You don't want to step down,
You look down on them, On all of us!
Why now?
- What are you hiding? - What are you hiding?
Do you want war? Is that it?
Mum?
You're still here?
I can't stop thinking about Dad,
I don't want to be alone tonight,
Where's your brother?
But,,, I'm here, Doesn't that count?
Come on, come here,
Why wouldn't it count?
What are we drinking to?
Nothing,
Léo?
Mum!
I'm sorry, Forgive me,
I'm really sorry,
What did the police want?
Nothing, It was a mistake,
They won't be back, promise,
Lying to protect me doesn't work any more,
I'm too old now, so stop it,
Why are you still here?
You're not in the clear yet,
That cop said you can't leave,
He's not giving up,
Jeez, stop standing on ceremony, We're the same age,
How do I know your family didn't send you?
Why would I have got you out? Think about it,
I don't know, Maybe so you could stab me in the back later,
Twisted behaviour seems to run in the family,
I'm not like my family,
For now, it's only me who thinks you're innocent,
That's what's bothering me,
Why?
Bloody hell, don't you get it?
This is just the beginning, You can't escape this on your own,
They'll destroy you, I've seen them do it,
My family aren't nice people, I've got my reasons to be angry with them,
If you're found innocent, you'll get your inheritance,
Don't you see what that means for you and your son?
Let me help you,
What matters isn't why I'm here, but how I get you out of this, Right?
I didn't kill Arnaud Lasserre,
I didn't do anything,
I know,
I've been framed,
We'll do all we can to prove it,
Dad?
- Dad? - Yeah, What?
Wake up, We'll be late!
- Let me sleep, - Are you serious?
Not today, please,
Oh shit,
Fuck,
I'm coming,
Fuck!
So, from the afterlife, how does she look to you?
The woman you betrayed,
Huh, Black Jack?
Mum, shall we get going?
- Hello, - Hey,
I was starting to worry,
I know, I'm sorry,
But with the May roses, things are a bit hectic,
It's okay, I understand, I'm,,,
I'm just looking forward to holding you, I miss you,
I miss you too,
- But I have to go now, - Big day?
Yeah, I've got a business meeting now, It's,,,
It's a bore really, You've no idea,
If it's any comfort,
I've cleared space in the wardrobe for when you get here next week,
Oh, that's great,
Okay, I have to go,
Yeah,
The computer's in the study, Sure this'll work?
No, but it may be my only chance to find out who set me up,
You okay?
Yes,
Come on,
COPYING HARD DRIVE
What the hell is she doing?
"There's life and there's death,"
"Will any of us get out alive? No,"
"So eat the rich food,
laze in the sun, swim in the sea,
go for walks in the woods, speak your mind, be crazy,
be kind, be different,"
"There's no time for anything else,"
ChatGPT,
So yeah, I asked ChatGPT
to write something suitable about life and death for me,
Arnaud,
My dear Arnaud,
So gentle with his roses,
And so prickly with his fellow humans,
It was Arnaud who taught me that a rose can express every feeling,
Kindness, tenderness,
loyalty,
Even deceit
and betrayal,
Fuck,
What the fuck is this?
"You're not going to marry a gardener!" my mother cried,
I wasn't even 20 years old,
And for what?
For this,
You think you know someone,
You think he loves you,
But, in fact, he never really loved you,
And you never really knew him,
What a joke,
What?!
FULL SYSTEM WIPE
No, no, no,,,
Shit!
MANON SIMONI THE FUNERAL IS OVER
Honestly, love,,,
You really think you can get out of this?
Dad?
