I must be tamed ♪
You mustn't meddle in my gaze ♪
Are you helping me or what?
Um
You asked me
to be straightforward, right?
Yes.
All right,
then, these
may need to stay here.
Mm-hmm.
Huh?
All right, all right, all right.
Just calm down.
We have been planning
how to do this all night, Tio.
The calm Alice left
the building five hours ago!
Everything is gonna be fine.
This is just one night, Alice.
- Hmm?
- Mm-hmm.
Stay in your room at the hotel,
empty the minibar.
The next morning, you wake up,
go to interview the professor,
and before you know it,
you'll be heading back home on the train.
Hmm?
You would be the last thing on my mind ♪
You got this.
CAPRICORN
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
- Wait, I'll take
- No, thank you. I got it.
Uh-huh. All right, one more time.
These here are your seats on the train.
And this here,
is our handsome Davide Sardi.
And that's how we determine that
your ideal seat is right here. Hmm?
Not to his side because it's too intimate.
Shoulder-to-shoulder always leads
to overly personal conversations.
That's why
no.
Uh
Six C.
- That's my seat, Tio.
- Hi.
- Would you like to have a bite?
- No, thanks.
- Oh, this looks really good!
- All right.
Well, I ate it, though.
Okay.
We should review and prepare
Oh shit! Shoulder-to-shoulder always leads
to overly personal conversations.
I've started jotting down ideas somewhere.
Here it is.
Choose your next journey
with the best comfort.
Alice.
The train is arriving.
Fuck.
Sorry.
Alors,
the reservation is for
two rooms on the same floor
with adjoining doors.
Never accept adjoining rooms.
Um
Yes?
Uh, would you happen to have
a room available maybe on a higher floor?
I don't think that will be possible.
No, because it's my first time
visiting Paris.
So, I'd like to enjoy
a nice panoramic view of the city.
I'm sorry.
The only room
we have available is the
Suite Deluxe on the top floor.
I'll take it.
It is 825 euros.
Oh jeez.
Put it on my credit card.
- No, no, no, are you kidding?
- I'll pay for it.
Oh!
Woo!
Okay.
Sorry.
Ooh.
- There.
- Uh, yes. Uh
Merci.
Goodnight.
Goodnight.
Bye.
Wow!
Woo!
LOVE
Who needs more Paris
when you already have all this?
Mmm.
Delicious.
Mmm.
Cheers to you!
Mmm.
If I'm honest, I wouldn't have bet on it,
but you should be proud.
Proud of yourself.
Yes. I'm super proud of myself.
Oh! Dammit!
Well, all right.
DAVIDE: GOOD MORNING.
I'LL WAIT FOR YOU DOWNSTAIRS.
Room service!
Room service!
Don't look at him, Alice.
Don't look at him.
You got this, Alice.
You'll be home soon.
That's him.
Yes.
Here I am.
I'll be right there.
Welcome to the Klauzen Institute.
Professor Klauzen.
I am extremely sorry,
but we are going to have
to postpone our interview.
I was just informed
of a personal situation
which I need to handle urgently.
I can be available
at some point tomorrow morning.
Would that work for you?
Um
I realize this
is not ideal for you, but, um
Of course.
Excellent.
And by way of apology,
we'd like you both
to enjoy a wonderful day in Paris,
at our expense, of course.
We Capricorns are reliable.
We're known for that.
So, this seems to me like
the least I could do.
Gifted with the sense of humor
of an old hairdryer,
Capricorns are serious and reliable.
They want to settle down.
With you.
Especially if they got to take a look
at your accounts and tax returns,
and they're certain you're about
to inherit a large amount of money
from the distant great-auntie you had.
Therefore
call the flower shop,
start sending out the invites,
but most of all
get cracking with
a solid prenup agreement.
Hmm?
That's very kind of you.
It's no problem at all.
I'm sure we'll manage to find something
to do on our free time.
Don't do this to me.
Perfect!
I guess it is now time for me to leave.
Great meeting you. See you tomorrow.
See you tomorrow.
- Bye-bye.
- Au revoir.
Now what?
What is the sticky-note
for this situation?
There wasn't one.
What do you mean "There wasn't one"?
Well, you just can't plan
for the unexpected.
Uh, and also because, this is
a really complicated situation, sweetie.
The stars are speaking loud
and clear today.
- Can I help you?
- No, no, thanks.
- You sure?
- Yeah.
And you're gonna be facing
a great deal of temptations.
Temptations which
you can succumb to
or which you can resist.
Well, no.
Succumbing to temptation
is not even a practical option, Tio.
Plus, you remember how
it ended last time, right?
He's been really clear.
We are two coworkers,
and we know how to be professional.
Together.
Here I am.
Sorry.
Listen.
I know this is not easy,
but I feel this is getting ridiculous
that you and I can't even make small talk.
Not to mention the fact that
that I'm actually ruining
your first time in Paris.
A bit.
So let's give it a try.
We could go
and have a nice lunch together.
I promise you
it'll remain strictly professional.
Actually, you know what?
If you want to eat in silence,
fine by me.
Okay.
Okay.
I was supposed to come here
after I graduated from high school,
but I ended up getting sick
the day before I was set to leave, so
That's too bad.
Yeah, it is.
- Bonjour.
- Bonjour.
- Merci.
- Merci.
Bon appétit.
Merci.
Mmm. It's good.
It is. It's excellent.
Okay. Okay.
Are you in love with her?
What?
Do you love her?
What did you just say?
Oh, no!
No, no, no, no!
I'm sorry. Don't answer. Um,
I shouldn't have asked you that question.
It's none of my business actually.
I'm sorry. Uh
Okay. Yes.
Here it is.
- No, Alice
- No, don't worry.
I I just asked you
a very silly question.
You clearly love her.
Why wouldn't you?
I, um
Okay.
I'm sorry, but for me it's
For me, it's just too
It's just too hard.
I can't do this.
I'm sorry.
Well, that's why I told
I suggested that we try to
I don't want to be your friend, Davide.
I
Say it.
I'd l
Say it.
I'd l
Say it!
I'll see you later.

One moment, please.
Come on, Miss!
I'm sorry.
Ugh.
Where the heck is my wallet?
Next.
What are you doing here?
What's so funny, Davide?
They stole my money.
I need to call the police,
or better, go to the gendarmerie.
Or maybe I should just
go to the embassy, right?
And also, my phone died.
No need to go to the police
or the gendarmerie, Mademoiselle Bassi.
You left it at, um,
at lunch.
- Oh.
- I was looking for you to give it back.
I tried to call you.
Thanks.
If you allow a nostalgic ex-Parisian
to be your guide,
I promise my phone won't die.
- All right.
- Mmm.
Tell me more about this tour around Paris.
Follow me.
Um, right behind you,
this is the Moulin Rouge,
which is the biggest consumer
of champagne in the world.
This is the Promenade plantée.
It doesn't even feel like we're in a city.
It's built over
an old railway track.
I loved coming here
on sunny days like today.
I bet you used to come here
with some gorgeous French girl.
No.
I
I've never brought anyone else here.
I've always loved imagining
what kind of life
the people behind those windows have.
I wonder what plans
that woman has for tonight.
Hmm.
Tonight.
Tonight is
a really important night for her.
This morning,
when she went out to get some bread,
she actually bumped into someone
Hmm?
in the street.
Oh, a man.
But not just an ordinary man.
An old high school friend?
Her very first love.
Who secretly still loves her to this day.
- Hola.
- Hello.
How beautiful, right?
How cute.
I bought one in every place
I've been to since I was six.
I bet your fridge must
be covered with them.
Every object you buy just ends up in a box
when it's time for you to leave.
You're so pragmatic, Davide Sardi.
It's just that we didn't have
a whole lot when I was younger.
- What'd you play with then?
- Bonjour.
Bonjour.
With my brother.
And with a tent.
It was our secret hideout.
We'd live in there.
Sometimes it was a castle
sometimes it was a submarine,
or even a spacecraft.
And this is the Canal Saint-Martin.
My favorite spot.
Come with me.
I want to show you something.
Right here.
That's where I lived.
In the attic with the planters.
Mmm.
Wanna sit down?
Here?
Yeah.
And how long did you live up there?
Five years.
With Claudio, most of the time.
My brother.
We were both working here back then.
And where is Claudio now?
Nowhere.
He died two years ago.
Oh.
I'm I'm so sorry
No.
You couldn't have known.
He was a great guy.
Always making me laugh.
A lot.
How did
In a car accident.
Down in the south of France.
It was a deer.
Crossed and hit his car, and
I wonder what your stars
would have to say about that.
Let's go get a drink.
Today, you asked me
if I was in love with Barbara.
The answer is no.
Not in the way that you think.
She was Claudio's girlfriend.
This is weird, but
knowing that I can be there for her
and in some way for my brother as well
that helps me miss him a little less.
And also,
if I left her, she'd be devastated.
She's not as strong as she seems.
Let's make a toast to the stars,
because, despite everything,
they guided us here.
To the stars.
It's a great day
It's a great day, oh, I feel it ♪
No, no, no.
- After you.
- Thanks.
All right.
I'll see you tomorrow morning at 8:00.
Have a good night. Sleep well, Miss Bassi.
Have a good night, Davide Sardi.
Holy shit!
Woo!
And this is how the film ends.
I know you like what I got
I see you watching me ♪
Mmm.
I'm coming ready or not
I won't miss a beat ♪
Show me what you got
Show me what you got, baby ♪
Whatcha got?
I got this ♪
I am everything I need
I am everything I want ♪
I am, I am ♪
In technicolor ♪
I am everything I need
I am everything I want ♪
I am, I am ♪
In technicolor ♪
I am everything I need

What are you thinking about?
About how we found each other today.
In Paris.
In the middle of a busy street.
Some couples never manage
to find each other.
Not in their entire lives.
Meaning,
that we're a couple now?
Alice
And right now,
what are you thinking about?
You know,
we don't always need to tell each other
about what's going on in our heads.
Simply observing you,
my dear Miss Bassi, in silence,
is just as effective.
You don't need to know horoscopes
or read instruction manuals
to know someone.
You think so?
I think I could really use
an instruction manual for you,
Mr. Davide Sardi.
Hey.
LOVE
Hey. Good morning.
Davide, did did I wake you up?
No. I, uh, came down early for
- Mimì's not well.
- What?
She's not doing well.
Something's wrong. She won't get up.
Barbara, calm down.
- Mimì's not doing well!
- What's going on?
I have no idea.
Well, maybe she ate something?
No, she didn't.
How did that
She's bleeding.
Should I take her to the vet?
Yeah, um
- Can you come back, please?
- I'll get on the first plane.
Don't worry. I'll be home soon.
Hmm.
Bye.
Bye.
Mimì.
My brother's dog.
She's sick.
They don't know what's going on.
I'm sorry.

that we're a couple now?
Alice
And right now,
what are you thinking about?
You know,
we don't always need to tell each other
about what's going on in our heads.
Simply observing you,
my dear Miss Bassi, in silence,
is just as effective.
You don't need to know horoscopes
or read instruction manuals
to know someone.
You think so?
I think I could really use
an instruction manual for you,
Mr. Davide Sardi.
Hey.
LOVE
Hey. Good morning.
Davide, did did I wake you up?
No. I, uh, came down early for
- Mimì's not well.
- What?
She's not doing well.
Something's wrong. She won't get up.
Barbara, calm down.
- Mimì's not doing well!
- What's going on?
I have no idea.
Well, maybe she ate something?
No, she didn't.
How did that
She's bleeding.
Should I take her to the vet?
Yeah, um
- Can you come back, please?
- I'll get on the first plane.
Don't worry. I'll be home soon.
Hmm.
Bye.
Bye.
Mimì.
My brother's dog.
She's sick.
They don't know what's going on.
I'm sorry.
