An "obvious" --- i.e., easily recognizable with just a casual glance, and therefore does not need to be actually verbalized --- and comparatively-simple/minor assistive action dat someone requests merely by saying, "S'il-vous plait?"
Typical example of a French favor: Person A approaches Person B in his workshop and holds out two separate pieces of an item that have come apart, and thus need to be re-attached together with glue, one or more screws/nails, re-bending a wire fastener, etc.
Person A, a bit plaintively: "S'il-vous plait?"
Person B, immediately seeing what needs to be done, and smilingly feigning indignance: "Silver PLATES?!"
Person B then performs said simple repair, prompting Person A to gleefully hug Person B and then turn and start off again with a huge joyful grin on his face.
Person A: "Merci beaucoup!"
Person B, giving Person A an affable amused clap on the back: "Mercy buckets!"

A weekend in which one does nothing productive and has little social interaction with others. For a true french weekend, one must not leave one's home/dorm at all on Friday or Saturday. Usually, one gets more than 24 hours of sleep on friday and saturday nights combined. Lots of leftover food, ramen noodles, and/or Domino's is consumed. Personal hygiene is neglected; Masturbation occurs frequently. French weekends wind down on Sunday afternoon, when one cleans one's living quarters and takes an excessively long shower, in which the balls are washed thoroughly. Only after this thorough washing of the balls may homework or any preparation for the week ahead begin.
Dude 1: "I had a great weekend. What did you do this weekend?"
Dude 2: "Literally nothing bro. I had a French Weekend."
Dude 1: "That's awesome dude. You're so lucky."

A french spread is a delightful assortment of cheeses arrayed on the inner thigh of a person. This spread must be picked up via the tongue, and the plate must be licked clean when the cheese is finished.

When you need to give true facts and have a frank discussion with someone without sugarcoating it in order to make this person understand your point.
She can't get it even when I break a French to her. I give up.
She couldn't get it even when I broker her a French. Gosh she is stubborn. I give up.
