Ferruccio (François Morel) works for Francis and is his most trusted advisor and a godfather to the kids. Francis knows his kids are spoiled as they were raised by a single dad (his wife died 15 years ago).Philippe brings the craziest business ideas (A shoe that fits, a service to "walk-in" the shoes, by having other people wear it till the leather settles and the shoes are comfortable to wear).

Only to find that Alexandre was also sleeping with the dean's 2 daughters, together.Francis has a heart attack and still all his kids can do is fight among themselves and be selfish. One day, a police squad attacks the Francis house and Francis barely manages to escape with his kids. He explains that he moved money out of the company, which constitutes willful fraud, and now all accounts are frozen. Francis says Ferruccio conducted the fraud, which landed them on the arrest list. They have to escape Monaco and enter Marseille. Francis makes them give up their cells, saying that they can be tracked by the police.Francis takes them to his father's villa in a village on the outskirts of town. Its in a bad shape and they have no money. They eat bread soaked in wine for dinner. Francis says they need to get jobs to eat dinner the following day.
