Quotes 

• Marine Bonnet : That was the longest pee anyone's ever had in the history of peeing.

  Antoine Verlaque : I used to just lift the lid and pee like a horse. Now it's like effing Morse code. Dot-dot-dash-dash. Be there all night.

• Antoine Verlaque : My grandmother thought oysters were the work of the devil. She was English, of course, and could say that while adoring something called Marmite, which she had specially shipped from London.

  Marine Bonnet : Marmite? What's that?

  Antoine Verlaque : God knows! It's kind of like salted tar. Probably a by-product of Formica.

• Marine Bonnet : Why are you packing your entire wardrobe?

  Antoine Verlaque : Because you won't tell me where we're going and I need to be ready for every eventuality.

  Antoine Verlaque : It's surposed to be a surprise, but we won't be going sky-diving and there are no equestrian events planned. Does that help?

  Antoine Verlaque : Surprises give me a tic.

  Marine Bonnet : Tough!

  Antoine Verlaque : When I was a child, a surprise meant "Mummy and Daddy are off to Biarritz for three months, and sadistic Gudrun with the moustache will be looking after you. Won't that be fun?"

  [Marine gives an evil laugh] 

• [Antoine is packing a suitcase, carefully folding everything neatly] 

  Antoine Verlaque : Is that all you're taking?

  Marine Bonnet : We're only going for a weekend. Jesus. Origami and the art of packing. If you were an article of clothing, you'd be a perfectly-folded shirt.

  Antoine Verlaque : You'd be a white sports bra that's been through a mixed wash.
