[Farges is drinking a cup of coffee at a bar, when suddenly Beaumont appears from behind him and dips a croissant in his cup. Shocked, Farges drops his cup to the floor.]
Opps, no more coffee!
[Farges tries to take his gun, but Beaumont stops him.]
Josselin Beaumont dit 'Joss'
Leave it. It's mine.
L'inspecteur Farges
I didn't want to hit her. Rosen told me to.
Josselin Beaumont dit 'Joss'
[Brutally punches Farges in the face.]
I didn't wanna hit you either. My wife told me to.
[Resumes eating his croissant.]
Josselin Beaumont dit 'Joss'
You're being unfair. It's a job. I don't enjoy hitting people.
Josselin Beaumont dit 'Joss'
Your'e right. A job is a job.
[He throws two more punches to Farges, who collapses against a nearby billiard table, leaves to exit, turns around]

The croissant's for my friend.
