S1.03 - NATHALIE AND LAURA, MOTHERS, AND THE CÉSARS
Bonjour and welcome to Call My Accent! Today, we dive into episode 3 that features a fabulous mother-daughter duo: Nathalie Baye and Laura Smet, who provoke a bit of a mess in the agency - and spark another clash between Mathias and Gabriel. Meanwhile, the agency has to face the dreaded tax audit, conducted by Andrea’s new romantic target, Colette. And Gabriel finally opens his eyes to Sofia’s talent… We also discuss being locked up with our own mothers, the contrast between Parisians and the remaining French, and the Cesar Awards (the French Oscars), featured in this episode!
So please, grab a croissant or a Danish pastry, if you prefer… And let’s get started!
