:40:01
All right, fine, l'm going.
:40:05
So that's the end?
:40:07
Wait... the end of what? Excuse me,
l must've missed the beginning.
:40:14
Three hundred thousand works of art.
Two thousand four hundred windows.
:40:18
Ten thousand steps of stairway.
This one knew the splendors of the Second Empire.
:40:22
Don't buy this at lKEA.
:40:24
No. A national treasure. lt's genuine.
They say Du Barry slept in it.
:40:30
Oh, her. Just another girl
in love with the boss.
:40:33
Right yes, l'm a caricature. And so you will
really be staying in this dusty corner?
:40:38
l like to be in a corner. They forget
about you but you're still around.
:40:41
You observe from behind the scenes
you're part of the woodwork. You discover truths.
:40:46
There's nothing better
in my job than a corner.
:40:49
Truth is, the case of
the Louvre ruined my life.
:40:52
l was so obsessed with it that burglaries,
crimes,...were no longer important to me.
:41:02
Then one morning they put me away
in a corner, but of another species.
:41:07
No more promotion
but l knew the time would come,
:41:10
l never doubted that the beast would
strike again one day and who do you
think they go looking for then?
:41:16
Their old friend, Verlac!
:41:21
Hey, the art guys another accident?
:41:24
Starting to look like Police Story.
:41:26
Coffee all around, l'm buying.
And l'll have strawberry milk.
:41:29
l'm Lieutenant Verlac.
:41:32
l'm back here today to pick up
my old case at the Louvre.
:41:33
There were guys stalking about twenty years ago
when l was new here.
:41:36
A specter dressed
in black uh... at night.
:41:38
Accidents, no explanation... l guess that was uh...
back in the sixties, right?
:41:42
Right, l was there...
:41:44
Somebody named Blanchard, a guard,
was the guy who opened the wrong door.
:41:47
Someone there?
:41:49
A series of electrical outages...
:41:52
And then one day well one night...
:41:56
Hey, who left that there?
:41:56
A midnight patron.
