Merci.
- Le bouton.
- Poussez.
Okay, Russ, get over here.
Fromage!
Non fromage, cheese!
Une idйe! Enlevez les chaussures
et dans la fontaine.
Merveilleux, oui!
Les shoes, dans I'eau, vous.
Yeah! Let's take off our shoes
and get in the water.
Yeah, okay. It's fun.
Trиs bien!
Cold!
Parfait! Impeccable.
Clark, there isn't anything on that tape
that shouldn't be there, is there?
They took my camera!
There isn't anything on that tape
that shouldn't be there? Remember?
That's gone, right? You erased it?
Yeah, I erased it.
We'll check in and come back for the cases.
Here we are, kids. Chez Griswald.
We have a reservation
for the honeymoon suite.
Mr. And Mrs. Garland.
Clark, look. They must be honeymooners.
Either that or they're Siamese twins.
That's how Jack kisses.
Are you from America?
We are from Chicago.
Chicago. We're from Akron.
We're the Griswalds.
I'm Clark, and this is my wife, Ellen.
And my daughters,
Audrey and Rusty.
You're in Room 714. And please hurry.
I guess it's true. Paris is for lovers.
May I help you?
We're the Griswalds.
We have a reservation for two chambres.
We're the grand prize
Pig in a Poke winners. Oink, oink.
- May I see your passports?
- Of course.
I guess I sign this.
I sign "Griswald" first, right?
No, I put "Clark."
I put "Clark."
We don't really speak French.
This is our first day.
What do you think? C'est magnifique, huh?
I'll go get the kids.
Good idea. We'll get a move on.
- Where's Dad?
- I'm right here.
Just looking for the Bible. There it is.
Everybody ready?
We got a schedule to keep.
I vote we don't see any more museums.
I vote we don't get anything else to eat.
What's this?
Do I detect a note of dissension?
Yeah, Dad. Paris sucks!
Everyone's so rude.
- Come on, we're the visitors here.
- This isn't Wally World, it's a country.
We're the ambassadors of America here.
To be accepted, we have to fit in,
speak the language...
...wear French clothes.
That's why I got us all berets.
Come on, Dad.
This is really rank.
Come on now, Russ. Loosen up.
You don't want to look like a tourist.
All the French wear these.
It's the national hat.
I won't wear it. It looks stupid.
No girl will want to talk to me.
Then I guess they'll all talk to me.
I vote for berets.
I second the motion.
Berets.
That's three-to-one. You lose, fellow.
France is world famous for its cuisine,
so anything will be great.
Order what you want.
Garзon.
Nous voulons commander а dйjeuner.
Les enfants desire hamburger et frites.
Coca-Cola for the les enfants.
Votre meilleur vin.
You want the soufflй?
My femme would like to
commander the soufflй fromage.
Et moi, I'll have the veau, the veal.
Good choice.
Du brie.
Just a little brie, yeah.
We'll get that later. Merci beaucoup.
Okay, just a little bit. That's about it.
Where would you find a waiter like that
in the United States?
Honey, speak the language,
they're going to be nice. Just try.
There she is, kids. The Eiffel Tower.
921 feet of historic landmark.
That's more than an acre to us, Russ.
- Let's go to the top, Dad.
- Yeah. Let's go.
It's magnificent.
It's breathtaking.
I'm glad we decided to be pigs.
Thank your father.
Thanks, Dad.
It's so beautiful, I feel so...
I feel my juices are just...
It makes me so...
I want to write. I want to paint.
I want to sculpt something massive.
I've got a creative urge to...
I wonder if there's a men's room
around here?
Look at those things.
- Let's get our picture taken.
- No, they're silly.
- I'll buy one for Jack.
- Okay.
Rusty.
Russ, what's wrong?
I feel like an idiot because
of this stupid hat you made me wear.
I want to talk to you.
Two things. First, you're never an idiot.
You're a Griswald.
Understand that?
Second, you know I'd never do anything
to injure you.
You know I'd never do anything
to hurt my opinion of myself.
If the beret bothers you, it bothers me.
If it upsets you, it upsets me.
How did you
