:49:01
I drove him home
from the police station.
:49:04
And you know,
:49:06
I wanted to ask him
to stay at my house...
:49:09
but I was embarrassed to.
:49:12
I didn't.
:49:14
But Mme Vercel was already dead!
:49:16
Who knows?
:49:18
He told me she was still in Nice...
:49:21
and yet the police officer
saw her suitcase...
:49:25
one hour earlier in the salon.
:49:27
Why did Julien lie?
:49:29
You talk as if he was guilty.
Do you believe that?
:49:33
No, but to believe
or not to believe
:49:36
is not the question.
Life isn't a novel.
:49:39
In a novel,
our friend would be guilty.
:49:42
By running away, Vercel is acting
as if he were guilty.
:49:46
What would you do in his place?
:49:48
If he asked me,
I'd tell him what I'm telling you.
:49:51
No reason to worry.
:49:53
Thank God,
we're in France where juries
:49:56
allow for crimes of passion.
:50:02
Meanwhile, tell me...
:50:04
what can I do for you?
:50:06
I want your advice.
:50:09
If you know where Vercel is,
:50:12
can you ask him...
:50:14
for instructions.
:50:15
I've kept the agency open
but is that what he wants?
:50:19
Unfortunately...
:50:20
I don't know where he is.
:50:22
If I did,
I'd tell him to surrender.
:50:25
Only then can I really help him.
:50:29
If he contacts you, tell him that
:50:32
and ask him to call me at once.
:50:43
Come along, please.
:50:44
What for?
:50:46
The chief wants to see you.
:50:55
What were you doing
in Nice last night?
:50:58
None of your business!
