[spoiler] I don't get the ending


Ok, I get it that the kid picked the pocket of one of the cops but what did he take? Key to the handcuffs? What good is that? Or is it just their satisfaction in seeing that the kid is so good, he can now pick the pockets of France's finest?

Well, whether the key would eventually be of any use, the significance of the moment was the child showing them that he was with them.

I agree with you valvaljean.

Also note, they made a point that impersonating an officer was five years in the clink. So in my mind, you have a dumb crook with an impressionable kid and a key to the cuffs, and five years added to their sentence. lol.
