{1410}{1485}Can you conserve these mushrooms?
{1534}{1568}Of course.
{1608}{1716}But we have to work fast.|Dryness and rot have already set in.
{5046}{5087}Okay?
{5192}{5252}The heat is becoming unbearable.
{5659}{5730}Just don't move.
{7227}{7296}Hello! STOP!|What are you doing here!
{7303}{7332}Looking for work.
{7335}{7373}NO! That's too dangerous here.
{7376}{7394}Work
{7397}{7471}Go! Go away. No work here.|Go away, go!
{8363}{8398}Evening.
{8461}{8493}Do you have a room free?
{8497}{8522}We're fully booked.
{8526}{8550}Excuse me...
{8553}{8604}I've already told you, we're full.
{8608}{8701}I'm looking for work on a ship.|Do you know where I can register?
{8704}{8805}You're in the port here.|You have to go into town for work.
{8899}{8938}You all right?
{8968}{9013}I haven't eaten all day.
{9015}{9063}Would you like something to drink?
{9065}{9107}Yes, thank you.
{9195}{9270}I'd rather have water, please.
{9273}{9305}Still.
{9770}{9812}You're not from here.
{9814}{9850}No.
{9888}{9929}Perhaps I can help you out.
{9932}{10015}But you have to share|with another guest.
{10045}{10087}With a man?
{10091}{10152}A sailor who works nights on the docks.
{10160}{10226}Leave the room at 7, okay?
{10324}{10427}Toilets and shower on the landing.|Room number 5.
{10443}{10472}Thank you!
{16423}{16511}Office help required|for the preparation of specimens.
{16515}{16540}Ring here.
{17013}{17116}Hello, it's about the advertisement.|I'm not too late?
{17119}{17192}No, no. Come in.
{18668}{18709}Please sit down.
{18928}{18963}What did you do before?
{18966}{19040}I worked in a lemonade factory.
{19074}{19149}What would you say to|25 percent more than your wages there,
{19152}{19217}plus two months wages|for the summer holidays?
{19221}{19275}What exactly is the work?
{19278}{19340}This is a very unusual laboratory.
{19344}{19410}You'll need a while to understand.
{19425}{19542}Let's say, our work consists of|preparing specimens and storing them.
{19562}{19592}Like in a museum?
{19595}{19685}No.|We neither research nor exhibit.
{19711}{19775}I need someone for the office.
{19781}{19863}My last employee left a month ago.|It's getting awkward.
{19866}{19938}But what are these specimens for?
{19999}{20090}People come to us|for their own different reasons.
{20185}{20237}They have a personal problem.
{20278}{20363}Our role consists of solving|these personal problems.
{20384}{20430}Do you understand?
{20464}{20569}I'm sorry, I think the work|is more difficult than I imagined.
{20573}{20623}No, it's very simple.
{20632}{20706}A visitor brings us an object|he wants to have conserved.
{20720}{20766}After the usual formalities
{20770}{20838}you accept it, and I make a specimen.
{20875}{20953}Then we receive a fee|corresponding to the work involved.
{21003}{21041}That's all.
{21051}{21101}Do many people come here?
{21104}{21151}It depends on the time of year.
{21172}{21250}It's irregular and unpredictible.
{21409}{21508}But people who really need it|find their way here blindfold.
{21601}{21653}Is it always so quiet?
{21683}{21775}Yes. Preparing specimens is quiet work.
{21822}{21913}The hours are 8.30 to 5,|with an hour's break for lunch.
{21923}{21992}Sundays and public holidays are free.
{22010}{22062}You can start tomorrow.
{22070}{22109}Thank you.
{24426}{24462}Hello.
{24468}{24559}I've been waiting for you.|Did you sleep well?
{24566}{24604}Very well, thanks.
{25116}{25202}I've written down everything|you need to know in this note.
{25221}{25295}How a planning looks,|how to set up a dossier.
{25298}{25366}The price you can give,|the delivery times.
{25369}{25387}But...
{25391}{25496}Don't worry.|Take as long as you need to adjust.
{25499}{25563}If you have the slightest problem,|I'm not far away.
{25565}{25627}Office supplies are there.
{25630}{25732}If you need me,|ring this bell and I'll come.
{25751}{25786}Okay?
{25855}{25948}The main thing is to reassure people.|That's the most difficult thing.
{25964}{26051}The people who come here|are always worried about their objects.
{26087}{26145}We mustn't judge them, but help them.
{26230}{26342}It's a very delicate task, mademoiselle|I hope I can rely on you.
{26381}{26444}Don't panic, you'll be fine.
{26500}{26557}In the kitchen|you'll find cake and refreshments,
{26560}{26625}and everything|for making tea and coffee.
{26648}{26750}Welcoming people is part of your job.|They have often come a long way.
{26766}{26812}Do you have any questions?
{27023}{27062}Hello?
{27077}{27100}Hello?
{27104}{27144}Ponchardieux speaking.
{27148}{27207}Yes, what's this about?
{27210}{27261}Don't you remember me?
{27281}{27379}You must have a wrong number.|This is a laboratory.
{27392}{27422}I know, mademoiselle.
{27426}{27514}Two months ago|I had a kidney stone conserved.
{27517}{27588}I've been very busy|and I haven't had time to come by.
{27592}{27646}But I've been thinking of you.|I'd like to ask you to dinner.
{27650}{27757}The person who dealt with you|no longer works here.
{27760}{27850}I'd be grateful if you wouldn't|call again. Thank you.
{27873}{27912}You do that very well.
{30220}{30252}Three mushrooms.
{30256}{30295}Would you like to see them?
{30325}{30379}I didn't hear you come in, sorry.
{30383}{30432}So, you've arrived at last.
{30436}{30487}I missed the boat.
{30509}{30571}Come along.|I'll show you our specimen.
{30704}{30752}That's a specimen?
{30826}{30903}It looks like|a primitive deep-sea organism.
{30906}{30963}They're just mushrooms.
{31003}{31055}A young girl|brought them a few days ago.
{31058}{31119}I had to hurry before they decomposed.
{31166}{31248}Mushrooms... Why mushrooms?
{31264}{31335}They were growing on the ruins|of her burned house.
{31369}{31477}She wants to presereve within them|everything lost in the fire.
{31540}{31589}Did she lose everything?
{31591}{31635}Yes, everything.
{31647}{31689}Want a closer look?
{31892}{31956}When will you give them back to her?
{31959}{32001}I'm not going to.
{32009}{32092}We archive and keep all specimens.|That's the rule.
{32126}{32213}Our customers|can visit them whenever they want.
{32239}{32297}But most of them never come back.
{32439}{32493}The point of these specimens
{32502}{32622}is separation,|preservation and closure.
{32673}{32789}No one brings objects to remember them|with growing nostalgia.
{33701}{33738}Bye.
{33933}{33994}Hello. Number five please.
{36696}{36758}Come in. A moment please.
{36933}{36982}Would you like some tea,|coffee, lemonade?
{36985}{37017}No thanks.
{37121}{37153}Please sit down.
{37239}{37282}So.
{37285}{37389}Is it possible to preserve this?
{37414}{37453}Of course, no problem.
{37456}{37558}I heard about you|from a distant relation.
{37565}{37660}Having you prepare a specimen|is said to bring real relief.
{37664}{37706}That's true.
{37720}{37851}My enquiry|doesn't concern the score itself,
{37867}{37994}but the music it contains.|The sound, if you like.
{38019}{38079}Would you mind|if I took the score for a moment?
{38083}{38139}No, of course not.
{38258}{38303}I'll take your details.
{38424}{38446}Your name?
{38450}{38496}Lea Benoit.
{38638}{38688}It'll be ready in a few days.
{38692}{38763}You have to come in person|to authenticate your specimen,
{38766}{38848}then you pay, and that's it.
{38884}{38943}It's much simpler than I thought.
{38946}{38991}Yes, it is.
{39091}{39135}Something to drink.
{39252}{39306}My boyfriend was a composer.
{39310}{39376}He wrote this piece for my birthday.
{39385}{39455}It's as tender|as being wrapped in velvet.
{39490}{39573}At Christmas he gave me some|watercolours and a cameo, on a hatpin,
{39576}{39651}that he had brought back|from a journey.
{39714}{39798}After our separation, I flushed|the watercolours down the toilet,
{39801}{39840}and burried the hatpin.
{39872}{39957}But I just couldn't|get rid of the music.
{39986}{40024}I understand.
{40168}{40210}Thank you.
{41605}{41644}Is that everything?
{41719}{41760}Yes.
{41768}{41937}It's an order for a specimen|of the music written in this score.
{42063}{42115}It's too hot in here.
{42139}{42217}We must get an electrician|to install some air conditioning.
{42354}{42429}Do you have a moment?|Come with me, I need to talk to you.
{43607}{43659}It's nice and cool here.
{43665}{43710}It's my secret place to relax.
{43736}{43814}I come here after work|and think about nothing.
{43879}{43950}Conservation is hard work, you know.
{44137}{44219}Don't you think this is an ideal place|for a rendezvous?
{44237}{44287}No one to disturb you.
{44320}{44367}And because of the echo
{44379}{44472}you have to talk quietly.|And sit close together.
{44588}{44646}Why all these golden butterflies?
{44652}{44759}Why not? You're also|wearing a skirt with butterflies.
{44881}{44923}How old are you?
{44938}{44978}Twenty-one.
{45032}{45081}Something is bothering me.
{45089}{45167}I think your shoes|aren't elegant enough for your age.
{45277}{45341}I think so|every time I look at your feet.
{45363}{45448}I think a different type of shoe|would suit you.
{45451}{45485}Do you?
{45494}{45524}Yes.
{45589}{45701}I'd be delighted if you|would allow me to give you a new pair.
{46255}{46305}These are for you.
{46362}{46403}I can't accept.
{46407}{46505}Don't you like them?|I chose them for you.
{46654}{46776}I'd like you to wear them.|Don't you want to try them on?
{48298}{48348}They fit perfectly.
{48388}{48446}Made to measure.
{48470}{48574}How did you guess my shoe size?
{48625}{48682}Remember, I'm a conserver.
{48694}{48776}I only need to look at a foot|to guess its size.
{49010}{49069}Walk a little to show them to me.
{49102}{49159}One or two steps up and down.
{49178}{49213}Go on.
{49660}{49722}I'd like you to wear them|every day from now on.
{49878}{49923}All the time.
{49948}{50044}On the boat. At work.|During your breaks.
{50059}{50163}Whether I see you or not.|Agreed?
{53611}{53643}Password.
{53647}{53687}Brat.
{53944}{54028}I don't want you to get a cold.|Here.
{54212}{54263}It's good, thank you.
{54699}{54742}Come with me.
{55100}{55147}Shall I take them off?
{55204}{55243}It's not necessary.
{55492}{55534}Are they hurting you?
{55551}{55590}No, they're fine.
{55740}{55787}Have you thrown away my old shoes?
{56256}{56320}I can't receive the customers|like this.
{56328}{56404}I'll ask the lady from number 223|to iron your clothes.
{56434}{56472}Who's she?
{56475}{56506}An old guest from the time
{56510}{56562}this was a young ladies'|boarding house
{56570}{56662}She was living here when|I bought the place for my laboratory.
{56669}{56719}And she stayed on.
{56732}{56777}She's the piano player?
{56781}{56854}No, that's the lady from number 309.
{57872}{57907}Thank you, Iris.
{59877}{59914}Come in.
{60061}{60100}Hello.
{60254}{60306}I've brought you a score.
{60316}{60407}We'd be grateful if you would play it|to us on the piano.
{60583}{60642}I don't know if I can play this piece.
{60645}{60734}Please. We need your help|in the preparation of a specimen.
{61079}{61138}I'll fetch the lady from number 223.
{64480}{64517}Thank you.
{65002}{65087}Tell the customer her specimen|will be ready in a few days.
{66582}{66618}What's that?
{66621}{66679}The bones of a Javanese sparrow.
{66716}{66832}We spent nearly ten years together.|He died of old age.
{66844}{66902}That's life, what can you do?
{66998}{67032}They're incredibly light.
{67035}{67137}I'd like to have burried them,|but I live in a flat.
{67149}{67254}If they were preserved,|he could finally rest in peace.
{67364}{67480}My word, mademoiselle,|those are pretty shoes.
{67526}{67605}They're simple and unpretentious.
{67627}{67706}And they seem to have a strong will.
{67713}{67826}But above all they fit you perfectly.
{67842}{67900}As if you were born with them.
{67929}{67987}You know a lot about shoes.
{67989}{68039}You can say that again.
{68044}{68137}I've worked as a shoe-polisher|for fifty years.
{68150}{68206}I'll give you some advice.
{68217}{68346}Even if they're very comfortable,|don't wear them too often.
{68363}{68465}Otherwise you risk losing your feet.
{68606}{68741}Look. There's almost no space|between your feet and the shoes.
{68799}{68919}That proves that the shoes are|taking possession of your feet.
{68923}{68952}Possession?
{68955}{69009}Yes, exactly.
{69066}{69135}But it's really none of my business.
{69139}{69207}Please forget what I've just said.
{69211}{69315}But I'd be delighted to polish|your shoes for you if you like.
{69340}{69437}My stall is just behind|the central station.
{69446}{69516}I'll use a special type of polish.
{69519}{69578}You'll love the shine.
{69880}{69951}I'm relying on you for the specimen.
{70056}{70131}Please don't worry.|It will be ready in a few days.
{70135}{70195}Thanks. See you.
{72224}{72259}Hello
{72262}{72323}Yes, what is this about please?
{72334}{72371}Pardon?
{72375}{72419}A shadow?
{72428}{72463}What?
{72473}{72581}I'm terribly sorry,|but we only conserve concrete things.
{72607}{72706}No, the laboratory is unable|to prepare a specimen from a shadow.
{72725}{72807}Or an evil spirit. Sorry.
{73088}{73175}Are you still working? It's late.
{73539}{73590}You've changed your hairstyle.
{77539}{77580}I'll wait.
{77631}{77674}He's not there?
{77692}{77777}Monsieur Rota was supposed to install|the air conditioning last week.
{77780}{77831}Today is Tuesday,|and he still hasn't come.
{77835}{77905}It's impossible to work.|This is a laboratory.
{77908}{77953}Sorry?
{77956}{78004}Yes, it's really very urgent.
{78019}{78054}Thank you.
{78098}{78165}Okay, thank you very much.
{78426}{78482}Was there no one here today?
{78488}{78520}No one.
{78560}{78646}No one comes when it's too hot.|That's how it always is.
{78698}{78767}As soon as it rains,|or the temperature drops,
{78773}{78827}they miraculously turn up again.
{79066}{79121}Are your shoes making you suffer?
{79134}{79165}No.
{79258}{79307}I don't want you to suffer.
{79493}{79589}The storerooms for the specimens|need to be cleaned and tidied.
{79639}{79678}I didn't hire you for this type|of work,
{79682}{79729}but I'd like it very much
{79739}{79793}if you would help me|to get things in order.
{79842}{79889}Would you like to?
{79915}{79960}I'd like to very much.
{80504}{80572}I like being here with you|when everything is asleep.
{80595}{80670}The taps, the showers, the sinks.
{80720}{80763}Can you hear the echo?
{80915}{80998}The panes used to be|covered with droplets.
{81003}{81052}The pool was full of steam.
{81069}{81128}And there were lots of|different noises.
{81152}{81274}Laughter, flowing water.|Falling soap dishes.
{81323}{81394}And the young girls lined up|in front of the showers. Naked.
{81506}{81590}And among them the ladies|from numbers 309 and 223?
{81594}{81687}Yes, they must have been|around your age then.
{81738}{81788}One of them carefully|washes her hands.
{81791}{81840}She has taken a lot of soap
{81843}{81926}and rubs it into each finger|until they are completely clean.
{81941}{81977}With the other it's her neck.
{81981}{82002}She's been talking all day.
{82006}{82071}She's so hoarse she needs|to warm herself under the shower.
{82103}{82173}It's difficult to believe|that time really happened.
{82190}{82246}It's all dry now.
{82284}{82376}There's not a drop of water.|Not a trace of soap.
{82420}{82503}The pianist's hands|and the telefonist's voice have aged.
{82547}{82595}There's only the two of us.
{87192}{87263}Have you anything to conserve?
{87273}{87381}I don't know.|I don't think I need a specimen.
{87395}{87458}Everyone needs one.
{87481}{87561}Me too? Even you?
{87564}{87602}Yes.
{87648}{87699}Think about it.
{87707}{87801}There must be something|you'd like to have conserved.
{87969}{88032}Let's try to look at it another way.
{88059}{88134}What is your|most painful memory up to now?
{88156}{88209}The most painful?
{88230}{88315}There must have been a situation|in which you felt wretched.
{88357}{88464}In which you felt ashamed.|In which you felt ridiculous.
{88573}{88622}Go on, think.
{88666}{88741}Think about your most painful memory.
{88793}{88901}Something that doesn't let you go.|Something appalling.
{88930}{88993}Unbearable.
{89115}{89199}That was when I lost|the tip of my left ring finger.
{89206}{89256}Where?
{89284}{89323}In the lemonade.
{89327}{89374}Lemonade?
{89377}{89418}Yes,
{89425}{89503}it got caught in the conveyor belt|of the drinks factory
{89507}{89540}where I was working.
{89559}{89618}And then what happened?
{89644}{89685}Nothing.
{89709}{89789}The lemonade turned pink|and I fainted.
{89890}{89974}And your ring finger|has never been the same since?
{91203}{91238}Hello.
{91240}{91274}Hello Iris.
{91303}{91351}How pretty you are today.
{92240}{92275}Your name, please?
{92279}{92307}Olivier. Voyd.
{92310}{92351}With a Y.
{92573}{92639}There, that's all.
{92646}{92684}Thank you.
{96917}{96955}Mademoiselle,
{96958}{96984}My ship departs tomorrow.
{96988}{97049}I would like to meet you|before I leave.
{97053}{97113}I'll be in the Rose Bar,|four blocks from here.
{97117}{97199}I'll wait for you. Costa.
{98735}{98819}Hello. I want a drink, please.
{98857}{98898}No, thanks.
{98902}{99013}Come on, buddy. Give me a drink.
{99046}{99092}A drink.
{99609}{99651}Leave me alone.
{102550}{102570}Good morning.
{102573}{102601}I've been waiting.
{102605}{102699}Do you have time to help me|clear up the new storeroom?
{102727}{102796}What if customers come in or phone?
{102799}{102886}None will come today.|The weather's too changeable.
{102907}{102951}And if they come,|they'll ring the bell.
{103084}{103179}You could get yourself dirty.|You should wear an apron.
{103795}{103853}How many rooms does the building have?
{103902}{103958}75, to be exact.
{103972}{104044}From number 101 to 302|they're all in use.
{104102}{104151}Except for number 223.
{104193}{104277}The room where the telefonist|used to live.
{104281}{104334}Yes, except for number 223.
{104925}{104994}Won't the number of specimens decrease?
{105020}{105133}Not at all.|It's increasing all the time.
{105252}{105323}And what will happen|when all the rooms are full,
{105339}{105391}and there's no space left?
{105442}{105517}There's still the loft|and the bathroom.
{105640}{105770}And when the bathroom|becomes a storeroom,
{105799}{105844}what will become of us?
{110499}{110537}Hello.
{110559}{110599}Excuse the interruption.
{110603}{110648}Not at all. Please sit down.
{110920}{110993}I've made some tea.|Would you like some?
{112113}{112177}It's actually not my first time here.
{112194}{112249}Have you come to see your specimen?
{112253}{112293}No.
{112371}{112459}Is it possible for one person|to have two specimens made?
{112465}{112531}You want to order a second one.|Is that right?
{112535}{112618}I'd like to know|if it's happened before.
{112728}{112793}What is the new specimen|you'd like to have made?
{112864}{112905}This burn.
{113206}{113268}The laboratory director will come.
{113356}{113420}He'll tell you what he can do.
{113921}{113979}Thanks for coming despite the rain.
{114262}{114343}You'd like a specimen of your scar.
{114368}{114409}Is that right?
{114432}{114467}Yes.
{114488}{114567}Preparing specimens and healing wounds|are two different things.
{114703}{114744}Are you clear about this?
{114759}{114846}Yes, I am.|I'd like a specimen, nothing more,
{114863}{114915}to free me from it once and for all.
{114954}{115009}Then I can agree to your request.
{115148}{115200}Come to the lab.
{115276}{115326}You're going to the laboratory?
{115343}{115417}Please take care of the form|and write out the label.
{115695}{115736}Goodbye. Thanks.
{115845}{115879}Come in.
{118309}{118349}Do your feet hurt?
{118371}{118406}No, they're fine.
{121001}{121038}Hello.
{123226}{123258}Mademoiselle.
{123288}{123357}Mademoiselle, please come in.
{123377}{123427}I have something to tell you.
{123533}{123581}Would you like some tea?
{123602}{123641}Yes please.
{123644}{123675}Please sit down.
{123828}{123858}Do you take sugar?
{123861}{123894}No thanks.
{123904}{123968}How long have you been working here?
{123974}{124056}I don't know.|Perhaps two or three weeks.
{124060}{124139}Strange, I thought it was longer.
{124153}{124207}And you're not thinking of leaving?
{124211}{124277}No, why? I like my work very much.
{124281}{124363}Most of the girls|who worked here left very quickly.
{124374}{124468}Well, I don't know|if "left" is the right word.
{124484}{124506}How do you mean?
{124509}{124615}They just disappeared over night|without even saying goodbye.
{124633}{124679}What was the girl before me like?
{124683}{124746}She was about your age.
{124772}{124829}I remember her well, because I saw her|on the day of her disappearance.
{124832}{124913}I went outside to see to my plants,
{124918}{125026}and I met her in the corridor.|Her eyes were down, she didn't see me.
{125049}{125164}It was the sound of her shoes|I noticed above all.
{125177}{125282}A small, soft, regular sound.|A light clacking of the heels.
{125449}{125544}I was a telefonist.|I'm very sensitive to sounds.
{125548}{125593}Do you remember her shoes?
{125596}{125666}No, it was too dark.
{125719}{125753}Where did she go?
{125756}{125796}That's just it...
{125828}{125929}But I hope you won't be leaving|us as suddenly as she did.
{125954}{126027}I have to go now.|Thank you for the tea.
{128623}{128704}A Chinese man just brought this,|but he didn't say anything.
{128759}{128808}Do you know what it is?
{128811}{128851}It's a mah jong set.
{128991}{129069}It represents the Chinese philosophy|of the universe.
{129117}{129176}This is a rare,|extremely valuable object.
{129211}{129254}Put it on the shelf.
{129526}{129581}They all have to be picked up.
{129594}{129659}Every piece must be returned|to its original position.
{129692}{129772}Everything has to be tidy|before the first customer comes.
{132203}{132242}Finished?
{132351}{132411}They're all back in place.
{132888}{132932}Is it morning already?
{132938}{132968}Yes.
{132975}{133040}We made it to the morning together.
{133102}{133164}Take me to the laboratory.
{133202}{133256}I'm the only one allowed in there.
{133310}{133384}The girl with the burn could go in.
{133396}{133456}Yes, but that was|because of her specimen.
{133476}{133546}The specimens come first here.
{133670}{133790}But I could come down|to the basement with you
{133797}{133870}if I asked you to prepare|a specimen inseparable from myself.
{136524}{136548}Hello.
{136552}{136664}The young lady from the laboratory.|What a nice surprise.
{136667}{136717}I've come to have my shoes polished.
{136721}{136844}You've come specially.|Please sit here.
{137355}{137438}How is the specimen|of my Javanese sparrow?
{137447}{137499}We're storing it with great care.
{137514}{137606}The conservation fluid really|brings out the whiteness of the bones.
{137614}{137648}Lovely.
{138022}{138088}This is my special polish.
{138098}{138188}You'll soon see them shine like jewels.
{138348}{138442}Did someone give you these shoes?
{138471}{138510}Yes.
{138547}{138614}And are you in love with him?
{138667}{138771}I ask myself that.|I don't really know.
{138813}{138916}I'm only sure of the feeling|of not being able to leave him.
{138945}{139009}I don't understand these things,
{139014}{139107}but I can assure you|it's because of your shoes.
{139110}{139208}If you don't take them off|immediately, you'll never get away.
{139281}{139370}Why not have these shoes conserved?
{139377}{139454}That way, mademoiselle,|your feet would be free.
{139498}{139553}I don't want to free them.
{139913}{139992}There we are, finished.|They're perfect.
{140071}{140137}Do you really intend|to go back to the laboratory?
{140140}{140179}Yes.
{140218}{140287}Well, I won't be seeing you again.
{140291}{140329}Take care.
{140332}{140388}You too. Goodbye.
{140392}{140432}Goodbye.
