Would I Lie to You? Collection

The sentimental and comedic adventures of Eddie, a non-Jew trying to pass as Jewish though totally ignorant of Jewish traditions, as he works in a Jewish community.

The gang is back, with Eddie, Dov, and Yvan still in the textile industry and working in Paris' Sentier district. After an umpteenth problem with an independent retailer who can't cover the cost of merchandise, they decide to aim for the guaranteed safety of a large distribution contract with an established chain. Eventually, they do make it big, striking a deal with Eurodiscount, a European hypermarket chain (combination supermarket and department store). However, their joy dissipates as Eddie and Yvan quickly learn who dictates the rules when dealing with a large chain. Meanwhile, Dov, chased out of his home by his wife, Karine, after yet another extramarital affair, leaves with Patrick for California, hoping to strike a business deal there, and Serge, now a struggling delivery man, falls in love with a young girl from a good family whom he fools into believing that he's wealthy by taking over his cousin Patrick's home and belongings during his absence, and by spending the mob's money, which Serge is supposed to launder. Things go from bad to worse and the business is lost, until Eddie discovers that his bankruptcy goes beyond the mere commercial failure and that he was the victim of a scandalous swindle perpetrated by the heads of Eurodiscount. From then on, he decides to take revenge and conceives a plan that will mobilize and re-group the gang, giving Serge an important role that may let him pay off his debts and win the heart of his inamorata.

The gang is back in this third installment, and they've left Paris' fading Sentier textile district, deciding to set up shop in the thriving suburb of Aubervilliers. However, the old Jewish entrepreneurs who once controlled the textile game in this area have given up their hold to young, dynamic Chinese wholesalers who aren't so eager to share the market. Nonetheless, all adjust to their new setting and find their place and pleasure, willingly settling into routine until things go awry; Simon, a local Mafioso, has malicious plans landing them in trouble with customs, and the group's cohesion compromised. Even so, they rally together and form a plan of their own, teaming up with the Chinese to exact revenge.

At the beginning of the 80s, Patrick, son of daddy casual, goes, after his first amorous failure, to become a talented entrepreneur. Dov, whose mother expects brilliant studies, leaves high school to work in the Path while seducing his boss's wife. Yvan is reassuring over the professional events. And Serge does not stop inventing hacks to seduce the most beautiful girl in high school and confuse his parents on his tray (diploma) (he will get neither one nor the other).
