"JUST ANYBODY" "day 1" "Go back now!" "This isn't funny anymore!" "Destroying someone isn't?" "Tell the cops you gave me clothes and money, that we drank and smoked." "They'll love that!" " You apologized." " I never did!" "You knew what you did was sick?" " You were upset." "I didn't mean it." " You didn't?" "!" "You invited me over, remember." "Why are you following me?" "You knew you never got me hard." "Why did you invite me?" "I'm too dumb to understand?" "Have your sweater back." " I gave it to you." " Keep it." "I have worse shit to deal with." "It's 3 years since I saw my kid or helped out." "Going to see her?" "Yes, in Le Crotoy, okay." "She's Kimberley, her mum's Gwendoline." "Give me a break now?" "You talk nothing but crap." "You stick to my ass." "You're nuts." " You believe that?" " Yeah." "Keep pissing me off, I'll belt you one." "The cops'll love that." "Want me to go to them?" "I like you but why d'you complicate things?" "You make me feel pathetic." "I don't care if you forgive me!" "You wanted a fuck, then changed your mind." "I don't get any of this." "Okay, I apologize." "Happy now?" "I can tell you don't mean it." "I'm not hearing you." "Piss off now." "Get off my back." "Need a ride?" "I don't mind walking." "I have to follow someone's tracks." " You see them?" " No, I'm not a cop." "I am." " You're kidding?" " No." "The guy I'm following..." "We were together." "We felt a strong attraction." "So I invited him back." "But it went really badly." "I went to where he hangs out and... he can't see what he did to me." "For him, it was just a fuck." "I want to kill him." "But if I make an effort, I know it doesn't matter." "I took the train with him and... he asked me to stop following him." "So I'm following him at a distance." "I know I'll find him." "Want to make this more official?" " You really are a cop?" " In Abbeville." "You want a damn statement?" "There's no harm in it." "No, it's okay, thanks." "Maybe being lost helps you find the way." "That's pretty profound." "Isn't it?" "Know where to find him?" "Yeah, in Le Crotoy." "I live near there." "I can give you a ride." "His woman's Gwendoline, aged 30 or so." "With a kid." "Kimberley." "I know them." "Drop me there, then leave me be." "I don't think he'll be there." "Your cop instinct?" "You could call it that." "Hello." "I'm a friend of Costa's." "And?" "He wants to see his daughter." "So where is he?" "He wanted to come alone." "I don't know you, but you turn up here?" "It's okay, it's just like him." "Who are you?" "We came from Paris." "I thought he was with his daughter." "You thought that?" "What are you?" "His new girlfriend?" "It's kind of vague." "You like walking disasters, right?" "You don't?" "I'm telling you, you like walking disasters." "We're all disasters." "That's true." "But he's worse than the rest of us." "She hasn't seen her father in three years." "I'm sorry but don't even say "hi" from us." "Want to see your dad?" "He's never tried to see you." "D'you want to or not?" "No." "Listen." "For years, I've worked 8 hours a day assembling locks for the minimum wage." "And he's going to turn up out of the blue?" "And you expect us to be happy?" "Besides," "I know he won't come back." "He's bone-idle." "He won't bring a penny in." "He won't move his ass to raise her." "He'll find money." "He'll find money?" "How?" "I'm sure he will." "You think so?" "Any idea where he might be?" "I don't give a damn where he is!" "At his dad's maybe." "Can I give you this?" "To help towards what he owes." "Keep your money." "We've said all we need to say." "What's your name again?" "Camille." "Look, Camille, this is all well and good but you should go now." "Still here?" " You saw him?" " No, he's at his father's." "She's tough." "She's okay." "I like her." "You have his father's address?" "I thought about what you told me..." "It sounded kind of weird, but it was rape, right?" "He wants to see his kid after 3 years." "I won't prevent that." "I'm interested in what happened to you." "Think of the child." "I don't need others to know I suffer." "Pain's nothing." "So this is normal?" "Going back to Paris?" "Any cheap hotels here?" "BBs on the harbour." " Can you take me there?" " If you like." " You won't try to find him?" " I will." "What's his dad's address?" "Hold on." "I don't get it." "What is he?" "Just anybody?" "More like a nobody." "No, just anybody." "He doesn't spell trouble." "He's important if you decide to see him as he is." "You've picked a fine example." "If I can't see his inner beauty, my life has no foundation." "If he's a loser, I'm one too." "You're a real philosopher." "Screw you!" "Your love of mankind sounds pretty abstract." "Like some self-centred, adolescent fantasy." "Sure, I only love myself." "Learn to." "I'm here to help." "The police can help me love myself?" "Thanks a lot!" "That's not my problem right now." "He is." "He isn't too popular here." "Give me his address." "His dad lives at 23, Rue Jules Verne." "He might be there." "See you around." "Maybe." "Day 2" "What is it?" "I want to see your son." "My son?" "Come in a minute." "My son isn't here now." "Let's go in here." "What do you want him for?" "Come on in." "Why d'you want him?" "Why do you want him?" "To see him." "Okay, but I think he wants to keep a low profile." "You know, my son's not much good." "He's like me." "Don't trust him." "Why don't you trust him?" "My son?" "Because you can't trust someone who isn't trustworthy." "Besides, I'm just like him." "It's plain and simple." "Talking crap again?" "No, I was saying..." "What did the doctor say?" " Who asked you?" " Gimme the list!" "The list!" "No phone calls, no letters to your boss, no insulting your wife..." "No crap about her!" "Or about your kids once my back is turned!" "No insulting letters to them." "I can't post them." "And this?" "No buying stamps." "That too." "You're a pain." "I can't help it." " It's my fault?" " No, the doctor told me." "You diss us as soon as our backs are turned." "I bet you were laying into me again." "That's not what I said." "Okay." "I need to ask a favour." "I'm dying to hear what." "What is it?" " Can't you guess?" " Go on." "Can you help me out, financially?" "Shit, what a surprise." "You know I'd never lend you money." "I've helped you out before." " I don't give a shit." " You don't?" "I'm out of here anyway." "Don't waste your time on this down-and-out." "He doesn't care about his dad or anyone." "He wants money for his kid..." "I'm broke!" "I'm out of here." " It's no use..." " Yeah, piss off!" "Fuck..." "I'm sorry." "Your dad seems okay." "Nothing but trouble." "You can't find a meaner guy." "I'm his son if I have money." "But since I'm flat broke too, that settles it." "The bastard!" "Glad to see me?" "I saw your daughter." " And?" " She's cute." "Going to see her?" "I dunno." "Can't you say you want to?" "I can." "So say it." "I just did, okay." "You're scared?" "It's been a long time." "It'll be the same for her." "It's not easy." "Who gave you this address?" "A cop." "You went to the cops?" "Let's move." "You don't talk much but try to tell me what's on your mind." "My head's full of draughts with all this." "We remember it differently." "What can I say?" "You prefer amnesia?" "Collective amnesia?" "For two?" "Two is already pretty collective!" "I'm sorry." "Not good enough." "Okay, I apologize if you prefer." "Hear the way you say it?" ""I apologize if you prefer."" "If you don't mean it, don't say it." "That sounded sick." "You said it to make me happy?" "You jerk!" "At least I said it!" "You prefer a guy who recites well?" "Sure, and you're useless at recitation." "Don't touch me!" "I'll belt up." "Talking's not my thing." "I'll belt up too." "I'm in a BB at the harbour." "Will you come by later?" "I want you to get tested." " Tested how?" " Guess." "I haven't had sex in ages." "Women don't go for homeless guys." "I don't even shoot up." "You're okay." "I want you to get tested." "Okay, but I don't know where to go." "I'll ask around." "What's with the cop?" "I didn't report you." "Don't touch me." "I won't sleep with you again." "Calm down." "Some days, I'm not calm!" "I'm a shit, everyone says so!" "I even think that myself." "I'm sorry." "Really, I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "We're being followed." "Who by?" "Don't turn round." "That cop." "Why's he here?" "Just doing his job." "Following guys who rape girls." "Is he following you or me?" "I think I interest him more but... he'll go after you if he can." "What did you tell him?" "Cut it out!" "You're nuts!" "What does he know?" "I told you:" "I didn't report you." "Want to meet him?" "No way!" "Everyone knows everyone else around here." "I'm going." "I'll see you later." " How about a kiss?" " Not in front of him!" "Victims don't kiss rapists." "A discreet cop..." "I'm not always a cop." "But you're following me." "Not necessarily as a cop." "You scared him off." "He's paranoid." "I never asked you about him!" "Would I kiss a guy who raped me?" "I wouldn't be surprised." " Are you okay?" " Better." " Still just anybody?" " Still." "Remember the verb book?" "The one at school?" " And the first verbs?" " To be and to have?" "Right." "And then?" "I forget now." "To eat, to dream..." "To sleep?" "Next is to be loved and then to mistrust." "And only then to love." "You follow?" "Love is after be loved and mistrust." "It says a lot about our education." "I'm sick of being loved and mistrusting." "I want to move on." "And conjugating "to love" isn't police work." "Compassion pisses me off." "It's religious crap." "If a guy screws up, he pays." "Hold on..." "I'm talking about love, not compassion." "So let's meet again." "You can track me down?" "How about lunch tomorrow?" "Maybe." "You're here about that cop." "I'm not." "Want to know what we did?" "What's it like meeting him?" "He's not keen on my ideas but he's not bad." "Made up your mind to see your kid?" "How can I?" "I'm broke." "Your wife's pretty." "She's not my wife." "You don't know her." "She'll call the judge." "He'll call the cops." "So as for seeing me, forget it." "Not if you go about it right." "Your kid may be glad to see you." "Sure, if she recognizes me." "I couldn't even take care of Kim." "I'm a real jerk there." "I make myself sick." "Go and see her." "Know what Gwen, her mother, said last time I called?" "That my kid's scared of me." "What a bitch!" "Act confident and it'll be okay." "You think so?" "Wait and she'll get suspicious." "And the kid won't understand." "You want to see her?" "You bet I want to see her." "But I'm broke." "I might ask you to live with me in Paris." " What's so funny?" " Nothing." "Tell me." "What does the cop want?" "To sleep with you?" "I don't know." "Maybe." "I can do without the cops right now." "Can I look at you?" "As long as it doesn't go too far." "Cut it out..." "Stop, you're intimidating me." "I can't follow you." "I don't get it." "You're so..." "I just can't understand you." "Cut it out!" "Look, I'm blushing." "I'll be going now." "Here." "Have a smoke." "A quick kiss." "Who's this?" "The local estate agent." "The pretty house on the beach?" "Yeah." "Want to live here?" "You think you're a better guy?" "You mean, do I rape girls?" "No, do you think you're a decent guy?" "Yeah, I guess." "So ease off on the man I'm going to live with." "That's new, isn't it?" "Yeah, it'll be new." "You have nothing on him anyway." "I haven't really looked." "I know him pretty well already." "Can I kiss you?" "You always ask a girl first?" "You don't want to?" "I don't know." "It's you." "You still want to?" "Have I picked the wrong lover?" "I don't know." "Never kiss me again." "He's more touching." "He blushes." "It's almost like rapture." "When ducks fly over, they hear the others in the cage." "Hold on, I'll show you." "When they see the decoys on the water, they want to land with their pals." "Wrong!" "What do the hunters do?" "They open fire on them." "Cool, huh?" "There's another cage here." "Look." "It's nice here." "The old guy who owned it died." "It's not much but I prefer it to my dad hassling me." "After you." "If you stay here, it'll be great." "It's dumb blowing cash on a hotel." "No one will disturb us here." "Any news on the cop?" "He doesn't want to know a thing about you." "You slept with him?" "No." "But he asked if he could kiss me." "Change the subject." "I said I was going to live with you." "And sleep with others too?" "You jerk." "What we have has put me off all that." "You need to cleanse your body after." "So you cleanse it with others?" "Cut it out." "What about your daughter?" "You have to find money." "Saying it's a big help!" "I saw a rich guy today." "Let's find a way to get his money." "We'll grab your cop's gun, steal the guy's money and dump him in the sea." "I'm serious." "You have to see your kid." "Yeah." "I'm going." "I'll come back or you call by." "But stir yourself!" "If I hadn't called, you'd never have come." "Cops don't come round just like that." "Oh yeah?" "You were always around here before." "Even in my bed." "Not so keen anymore?" "Now you've met Costa's girl?" "We're not married." "I made no promises." "It's a while since I heard from you." "I know what you wanted." "I'm not too ugly, I like sex." " You enjoyed it, I hope?" " Yeah." "That girl..." "Can you see her with Costa?" "I can't." "How about you?" "You can see yourself with her." "That's it, huh?" "Costa never calls." "Have you seen him?" "Yeah, but we don't mention that." "He's not your pal now." "He is." "I need some advice." "That's why I called you." "Really." "Do I let him see Kimberley or not?" "It's not easy." "Your kid needs to see her dad." "You said it but..." "He's her father." "But does he pay maintenance?" "So what do I do?" "See the judge." "He can tell you." "That's your advice?" "See the judge?" "Do you even care?" "See the judge." "It's his job." "He'll help you sort this out." "I wanted your opinion, not his." "My opinion is see the judge." "We'll call the judge then." "Do that." "That's all you have to say?" "Hey..." "What?" "Tell me." "How about it, before you go?" "Gwen..." "Is that reasonable?" "What?" "You don't want me anymore?" "Asking yourself questions now?" "That's new." "Come here..." " Let go of me." " Come here." " You're taking advantage..." " No way." "I'm sick of it." "I'm lost." "And you... you're as dumb as me." "You don't know!" "I guess." "If you saw Costa, think you'd feel anything?" "The crap you come out with!" "I'm kidding!" "Just laugh!" "It's not funny." "And spare me your humour!" "It's an idyllic location." "The view can't be beaten." "Very few places here have a sea view." "They're very rare, believe me." "The wooden decks are cute." "You're right." "I really fell for them." "My father should like it." "Even if the sea view isn't vital." "You never tire of it though." "Nice place." "Your job must make you pretty rich." "You're like my dad." "Money..." "What are you getting at exactly?" "Nothing." "My dad's a good man." "He's rich too." "Richer than you, in fact." "Sometimes you need money." "I need some right now." "Right now?" "I think my father will like the house." "It'll suit him, it's near the sea." "I need money right now." "What does that mean?" "What I think it means?" "It depends on the money." "You want the money up front?" "How much?" "500." "Your dad's really rich?" "Yes." "Tell me about him." "You have condoms on you, right?" "Always." "Go on, strip." "This'll be quick." "You'll suck me off?" "No, I won't." "You'll suck me off." "You'll suck me off, all right." "Your little tits..." "Your little ass..." "I don't believe this." "Don't kiss me!" "You've cut me!" "It's not what we said." " Fucking, yes." "Kissing, no." " You goddam slut!" "You little bitch!" "You little bitch!" "You'll leave me like this?" "I'll get you." "I can see you tomorrow at 2 p.m." "Why tomorrow?" "Fuck..." "Why see that jerk?" "I'm visiting houses." "I keep making friends among the locals." "Weren't you big on purity?" "Are you sure?" "You think I'll sleep with him?" "Can you stop following me?" "It's almost harassment." "I'll end up reporting you." "He owes you money and it makes him uncomfortable." "Uncomfortable?" "Him?" "Since when?" "He wants to see her." "He can take a hike." "He won't get my daughter." "He won't steal her." "He can't manage alone as it is." "He's not alone with you." "What's this?" "How did he get this money?" "Whose is it?" "He only uses cash." "So whose money is it?" " Mine." " Keep it if it's yours!" "You can give this much to a stranger?" "It's not a problem." "Nothing is for you." "Tomorrow is Saturday." "Costa can come at noon and bring Kim back at 5." "We can always call the cops." "I know one." "I know cops too." "Won't she be happy to see her dad?" "For one afternoon." "Let's see if he turns up first!" "And not too high?" "No, just not in too pathetic a state." "And if my lawyer says I'm not screwing up." "And if Kim agrees too." "She's who matters!" "You have a screw loose!" "I saw the estate agent." "I'm seeing him again tomorrow." " You slept with him?" " No." "I pretended I wanted to for the money." "Whores turn guys like him on." "I split his lip." " His lip?" " Yeah, his tongue." "How?" "I bit him." "He only had enough time to give me the money." "So he kissed you?" "He tried but soon changed his mind." "I bet he'll turn up tomorrow." "I don't really know what to do." "It could be tricky." "Come with me?" "I can't take all this shit." "We needed money, okay." " What are you scared of?" " Too much hassle." "Okay, I'll work something out alone." "You want to put me in jail?" "You play the prude then do this shit..." "Go now." "I'll think it over." "I'll take you to your kid's tomorrow." " You hoodlum." "Okay?" " And you?" "Glad to see me?" "I am." "Everything okay?" "You know a chick keeps talking about you?" "Nasty stuff too." "Think I should look into it?" "A real cop, aren't you?" "Cut it out." "I'm a pal too." "Seen your daughter?" "Not yet." "Scared of Gwen?" "She won't eat you." "You know her, she'll throw me out." "I never sent her a penny." "I know but maybe it'll work out." "I could see her, have a word with her." "Well?" "I know the other girl interests you." "Cut it out." "I told that other girl what a hoodlum you are." "Any jerk can fall in love with a girl like her." "I didn't go after her." "Jerk yourself!" "The jerk here has to be you, not me." "Know why?" "I'm a cop." "And cops deserve respect." "Shit, I thought you were my childhood pal." "Exactly, you're my pal and a hoodlum." "I'm your pal and a cop." "We can't help that." "As a cop, I'm pretty easy going." "I could ask you questions such as:" "What do you do when you're not raping her?" "You buy her crap?" "She wanted it." "She's making that up." "Get off my back." "So let's go and see her." " A police line-up?" " Exactly." "Come inside then." " Been talking long?" " We're not talking." "He'll kill you." "Calm down, he's not Jack the Ripper." "Pathetic..." "Shut up and piss off!" "You make a cute couple." "What did you expect?" "A quick threesome?" "No, not really." "Aren't you going to make your statements?" "Nothing to say." "Too bad." "Maybe some dope would have helped." " I'll waste you..." " What's your problem?" "Want to play smart?" "Sit!" "Stay right there!" "I thought you only hit women!" "Sit back down and don't move!" "Don't move!" "Fucking sit back down!" "If you move, I'll kill you!" "Come here, you!" "Look at this guy!" "He's a fucking junkie!" "Sit back down, I said!" "You don't move, okay!" "Tell her you're a fucking junkie!" "What'll a guy like him bring you?" "You really took me for a ride." "I fell for your rape story!" "You've got a great future with him!" "Okay?" "No." "Known him long?" "Yeah but it's easy for him to do me down..." "Let him talk." "He's gone now." "You never get over it, I swear." "You're always on reprieve." "I'm sick of living on the fucking edge." "I have to get away from here." "To drink in your duck hide?" "I only have 2 or 3 glasses a day now." "I've quit the lot." "I'm wound up." "I need to drink." "No, I mustn't drink." "I mustn't." "I'll go to my dad's place." "I'll call you later." "You're sure?" "Can you lend me 20 euros for my dad?" "Thanks." "I'll call you later." "You're here, kiddo?" "I'm glad to see you." "You saw Cyril." "He's been successful." "He's an inspector..." "A police inspector or something." "His dad must be proud of him." "Try following his example." "It'd do you good." "How did he seem?" "No different." " Sleeping here?" " Why?" "That way we'll be together." "To talk about stuff..." "What stuff?" "What do you want to know?" "If she's still here?" "You wish your son was a cop too." "You could rat on all your pals." "You'd like that?" "I'm too old for that." "And the girl's not my problem." "So don't mention her!" "How about a bite to eat?" " Are you hungry?" " No, I'm not." "That's kind." "Thanks." "Cheers." "Cheers, kiddo." "How are things otherwise?" "Please, don't piss me off." "To your good health." "And mine too." "Cheers, kiddo." "Weren't you seeing your pals?" "I'm just going." "Go ahead." "I'll just comb my hair and freshen up." "I need the phone." "Hi, it's me." "Can you go on line and find a cheap flight to Canada?" "And also for..." "a child under eight." "Don't worry, I'll call you back." "I'll call you back." "Fucking listening in again!" "No, I was just going out." " Me too." " See you later!" " If I'm still here." " Right." "What do you want?" "I shouldn't have done that." "I acted like a real jerk." "I'd like to talk." "Want to come down?" "Here's just as good." "Tell me what you see in him." "Can he be of any interest to you?" "Surely you're not drawn to losers?" "So either a victim takes an interest in her attacker or gets revenge?" "That's not what I meant." "You're not convincing anyone." "Costa doesn't give a shit about your dumb generosity." "Anyone's more interesting than you or than me." "What'll you do?" "Start investigating?" "That's not what I'm saying." "I know Costa." "He doesn't need a girl like you." "He needs a strong-minded girl to make him well." "A happy girl." "So I should sing like a skylark?" "You can try, but it may not work." "I'm dangerous for him?" "Of course not." "Then again, you know..." "It's good you believe in him." "But does he believe in you?" "He's off to Canada." "You knew?" "Sure." "It's true." "His dad told me." "It's not your fault." "No one ever taught him trust." "So he can't trust you." "It's you." "Stop hassling him." "He won't get anywhere this way." "It's not my fault he goes to jail or can't pay his rent." "Know what the problem is?" "He's an addict." "You worry me:" "It's contagious." "What do you care?" "He's off to Canada without me." "You make me sick." "If I can't love him, it'll be hell for me." "I have shit to deal with too, so stop telling me what to do." "He won't find comfort in your eyes anyhow." "Sorry to say it, but your pretty mug won't be enough." "Why make me believe I tempt you?" "Rejection makes me mean." "Day 3" "Don't be offended but he and I need a good, long talk." "Thank you." "See you later." " Okay?" " Fine." "And you?" "It's okay I pay for everything?" "You think I have money?" "So what do you live on?" "Please, not now..." "Look at you." "As thin as a rake." "I'm thin but I'm okay." "My lawyer doesn't want you seeing her." "But the little darling's so happy to see you." "I'm warning you:" "I want her back here by 5." "If she's just one minute late, I call the cops." "Okay?" " Where is she?" " In her room." "Kim?" "Come on, sweetheart." "Daddy's here." "Want to say hello?" "Okay?" "Already got your boots on?" "Great!" "Where'll you go?" "I fancied a walk on the flats." "Before the tide comes in." "Yeah, okay." "Give me a kiss, honey." "Take care." "You'll be okay?" "Have fun." "I'll bring her back on time." "Give me your hand." "This is great." "I have an important question." "Well, not that important." "What do you think of the girl who was with me?" "You don't have to answer but I'd like to know." "Well?" "Nice." "Nice?" "Pretty?" "Kind?" "Just pretty or just kind?" "Nice." "Pretty or kind?" "Pretty and kind." "Great!" "I'm pleased." "I mean it." "Got a boyfriend?" "Why not?" "Don't know." "At your age, I had lots of girlfriends." "Joey moved away." "Suddenly you have a boyfriend." "Joey's his name?" "Where did he move to?" "Saint-Valéry." "Is he good-looking?" "None of your business." "It's not?" "Okay." "I love him but he doesn't know." "And Soumia is jealous." "Soumia wrote him a letter." "And, well, he replied no for Soumia and yes for me." "Hold on." "Soumia wrote to Joey to..." "A letter." "And he wrote no for Soumia and yes for me." "He wants to be with you, not Soumia?" "Good!" "Is Soumia still your friend or is she sulking?" "She won't speak to me." "She won't?" "What do you care?" "She's ugly and you're pretty so he wrote to you." "Have you kissed each other yet?" "Not even?" "You soon will." "But just kissing, okay!" "Coming?" "I can't leave you here." "Want to look for shrimps and stuff?" "Is that it?" "Why are you sulking?" "Because it's been 3 years?" "Communicate with me." "I'll go away again." "You want that?" "Here..." "Holy Mother of God..." "Why are you sulking?" "You're mad at me?" "What have I done?" "You're not going to forgive me?" "Is that it?" "You can't forgive?" "You're angry all the time." "I know you can hear me." "Don't pretend you can't." "I know you can." "You just went..." "See, I saw you." "I shouldn't have seen her." "It went really well at first, but not after." "I lost my temper with her too." "Imagine how she feels, seeing her dad for the first time." "She'll never call me Daddy." "Camille, she'll never call me Daddy." "You told me to see her." "I tried my best." "But she doesn't care." "Everything was fine." "I'll try to sort yesterday's mess out." "Want to come?" "I'm not interested." "Why do you even want to go back?" "If you wait for me, it'll be okay." "Come in." "Is your tongue better?" "Surprised to see me here?" "I only came back to fuck you and slap you about." "To give you a beating." "You're into S  M, right?" "I deserve a beating but I don't have your money anymore." "And I don't want to fuck." "And yesterday?" "No, but I could have." "You just came to get slapped?" "Let's do it then." "Don't move!" "Don't move." "Your wallet..." "Your wallet!" "Move it!" "Move it!" "Let's go to your place." "Move or I knife you." "Fucking move it, will you?" "Want me to stab your ass?" "Coming?" "Are you okay?" "You see, asshole?" "Are you okay?" "Get a plastic bag." "Move it!" "Here..." "Get it." "Move!" "Stay there!" "Here..." "You fucking hit her now?" "Seen this?" "You hit her!" "Come here." "Hand over your fucking wallet!" "Are you okay?" "Let's go." "Move!" "Hurry!" "Don't try anything funny." "You live nearby?" "Five minutes." " You live nearby?" " Five minutes." "Get in!" "Hurry!" "What if I hadn't turned up?" "I don't know." "Drive, goddammit!" "What did I do?" "You control nothing now, okay?" "Call your place." "Your agency thing..." "Your mobile." "You won't be in." "You have to see..." "What's a mouth specialist?" "An ENT." "You're seeing an EN... whatever." "A mouth doctor." " For my mouth." " And stay calm." "Put the loudspeaker on." "Do it." "The loudspeaker!" "Yes, Mr Siatos." "I won't be back in." "You need to cancel my appointments." "I'll see to it." "Sounded good." "This place yours?" "The bastard!" "Got kids and a wife in there?" " Nobody." " Let's go in and talk then." "We'll be comfier inside." "How much was this?" "5,000." "If I had money, I'd buy the same one." "Let me see..." "Nice watch!" "Got a gardener here?" "Got no cash?" "How much was this?" "It was a gift." "A gift?" "Where's the safe you mentioned?" "There's no safe." "The safe for all your fucking watches and money." "You don't have a safe?" "This place reeks of cash!" "You don't have a safe?" "Where's the safe?" "Wasn't it in your bedroom?" " Where is it?" " Upstairs." "Come on then." "This isn't it?" "Am I warm?" "Is this it?" "Where is it?" "Here." "Show me." "Come on, punch in the code." "Open it!" "I have to wait." "The bastard!" "Stay where I can see you." "You need to check the time a lot?" "The liar!" "Look at all these watches!" "Bastard!" "You're a real shit." "Where's your wife?" "I'm not married." " Sure?" " We're separated." ""We're separated."" "Know what?" "We're in deep shit here." "You agree?" "We're in deep shit." "Are we or not?" "You need to find a way out for the three of us." "Start thinking!" "Start thinking." "I give you my PIN and my card to get cash." "Think I'm stupid?" "As soon as we leave, you'll be calling the cops." "Got a better idea?" "He thinks we're stupid." "Move!" "Fucking bastard!" "Come on." "Give me your mob..." "Give me your fucking mobile." "Yeah, it's me." "Okay?" "An asshole might rat me out." "If you hear anything, give him the treatment." "An estate agent in Le Crotoy." "At my dad's." "What's your name?" "Siatos." " What?" " Siatos." "Your licence." "In my wallet." "Lend me a hand." "Yeah..." "Siatos." "Georges." "Rue Stendhal." "If you hear anything, let the lads know, okay?" "We won't take anything." "We won't take anything." "Your shit's what got us here!" "Forget about getting cash from the bank." " What's your PIN?" " 1111." " What?" " 1111." "Got any transport?" " A bicycle." " That's all?" "Okay, let's go." " Show me." "Where is it?" " In the garage." "So let's go." "Come on." "Where's the garage?" "Excellent." "I'll put it away but I can get it out just as fast." "Got that?" "Come with me." "Get as much as you can." "Hurry back, we'll be waiting." "I'm not getting money." "Why not?" "Fuck!" "We're already in the shit!" "Bring the cops if you want." "Or even better, bring your pal the cop, okay?" "You have to go, please." "You've gone too far." "No way." "Take the card." "Remember the PIN?" "You have to go." "Come here." "You fucked her?" " She wanted money." " Stay there!" "She wouldn't do anything." "We did nothing." "How much?" "How much?" " How much did you give her?" " 500." "Stay here." "Tell me something..." "What happened to his 500?" "You never told me about it." "Come back here fast." "Come back and we'll calm down." "We'll talk after we calm down." "Go on, we're wasting time." "Go on, please." "Hurry it up." "Get all you can and come back." "Come here, you." "Hurry!" "You didn't fuck?" " You didn't?" " I swear." "Why was your tongue in her mouth?" "What?" "Why was it doing there if you didn't fuck?" "Nothing." "Get over there." "Still following me?" "I'm going to end up apologizing." "I wanted to last time." "You're not good at apologies." "You weren't totally wrong but your warnings don't interest me." "I didn't want to hurt you." "Too late now." "I can't get you out of my mind." "Find a girl you respect." "Your luck's out with me." "Don't you have a girlfriend?" "I do." "But things aren't great right now." " Is she pretty?" " Yes." "You know her." "I don't know anyone here." "I'm glad you're back in any case, still in town." "Cycling is good around here." "Planning to hold the bank up?" "Just getting cash." "Nice bicycle." "Whose is it?" "Changed sweethearts?" "Loaning a card shows trust." "I stole it." "Oh yeah?" "So where's the card's owner?" "At his place." "Is he alone?" "This is getting complicated." "Are you coming?" "Lock it!" "Want to lose your TV?" "I'll have it." "Put it in the car." " You never lock?" " Sometimes." "Sometimes." "Come on!" "We go to your bank and take out 10 grand for me." "Then I lock you in the cellar." "No, that's crap." "I free you and you keep mum." "What's 10 grand to you?" "If you play it straight, my pals won't fuck your mug up." "Go on, get in!" "If I win the lottery..." "I didn't tell you to drive." "Maybe I'll pay you back, okay?" "Everything's okay for you!" "I can't get into that bank." "You understand that?" "If ever you feel like escaping or trying to call the cops," "I can count on my pals." "Drive." "Head for the sea." "Hurry it up!" "Going to press charges?" "No." "You know what'll happen if you do?" "You answer fast now, asshole." "I wonder why." "Drive!" "Hurry it up!" "Stop!" "Get out." "Piss off." "Piss off!" "Fuck..." "What is this shit?" "Come here a second." "Come here!" "You dumb or what?" "Say it's okay." "It's okay." "I can stab you here with people around." "I just need to ask you something." "Get in the car." "Your GPS is crap." "I can't use it." "Lend me a hand." "Type in Charles-de-Gaulle Airport." "I'll let you know where you can pick the car up." "The cops won't know about this." "Okay?" "Head home after and don't let anyone see you." "I'll put your mobile in the glove-box." "Done it all?" "Let me see." "Okay, get lost!" "Piss off!" "Fucking hell!" "He didn't wait?" "I told you he wouldn't trust you." "I never got you two anyway." "I know, narcissism, crap generosity." "I get the message!" "Where's Jean Valjean now?" "He's not bright but he knew not to trust you." "He said he'd wait here." "You think he'll be back?" "He screws up well enough without you." "He has a phone?" " Call him on the estate agent's." " Go ahead!" "What's the number?" "I'll call the agency." "He'll let him go." "What would he do with him?" "The guy's not a hostage." "Cut the TV cop act." "You're pathetic." "You're the pathetic one!" "He'll get 10 years for kidnapping!" "Come on, hurry up!" "Fancy 10 million square kilometres?" "You pick up girls with square kilometres?" "No, it's where I'm going." "Here's another clue." "A maple." "Still no idea?" "Third clue." "Jacques Cartier." "No?" "The answer's Canada." "Want to come with me?" "What would I do in Canada?" "Let mosquitoes suck you dry or, in winter, throw snowballs." "Right?" "I hate snow and mosquitoes." "Got anything else?" "You don't like anything?" "I'm not classy enough?" "Come here." "The girl I'm waiting for is prettier than you." "Why not?" "Well?" " Well what?" " Where is he?" "I'll call you when it's okay." "Sure." "Give me your phone." " For the last number?" " Hand it over." "He's not far." "It's a local number." " Want me to note it for you?" " Sure." "Are you on duty?" "What of it?" "I think this is more a case for the gendarmes." "Tell them I'll be in my room." "Can you stop talking crap?" "Crap?" "The kid's fine and I bet the estate agent is with some slut!" "Just give me a break." "So you can look for him?" "That's the cops' job!" "I thought he'd dumped me." "I've had all I can take of your childishness." "I can get you any time because of the cash card!" "I can find your pal in no time, believe me!" "Go on, get lost!" "Childishness!" "Let's split." "The cop knows you're here." "Where shall we go?" "Paris?" "He'll get us on the way." "Let's go out to the hide." "Where's the agency guy?" "I wasn't keeping him." "He's at home or somewhere close." "He'll stay quiet, don't worry." "Can they track us with the phone?" "Turn it off." "He'll stop pissing us off." "But maybe they can track us with the damn thing off." "I'd have screwed up in the end." "No normal guy would have followed you with the estate agent." "They won't look for us here anyhow." "Coming?" "Can I come in with you?" "That's cool." "Want to kiss me?" "Don't worry, it'll be okay." "Here." "Want one?" "They're too big?" "You're right." "He did me out of 5 grand." "We had agreed on 10." "When we went to the bank..." "Listen, this is important." "We'd agreed..." "You don't give a damn?" "He screwed me out of 5 grand all the same." "It's true." " What did you get on his card?" " Nothing." "Nothing?" "No, I ran into the cop again." "What?" "You took nothing?" "No, he was at the bank." "Fuck, you ran into the cop." "How come?" "Who let him know?" "It's weird." "Search me if you want!" "I believe you." "And the other money?" "I gave it to your wife." "What?" "You gave it to my wife?" "You owed her money." "I owed her, not you!" "You didn't need to give her anything!" "Forget it, it's only money." "Who cares." "We won't fuck our heads up over it." "You know I gave Kim money for her mother?" "You didn't need to give her any." "That was good." "Think she'll give her the envelope?" "Of course." "Why?" "Wouldn't you have at her age?" "Not at her age or any other." "But I think she'll do it." "So my daughter's nothing like me." "Do you fancy the cop?" "He can try to part us but he stands no chance." "If he asks to sleep with you, you won't dump me in the duck pond?" "Shit, stop thinking I'm just a body!" "We're here thanks to me." "It's all thanks to you." "You wanted to take off alone." "What is all this?" "You know." "What would you do in Canada?" "Okay..." "No one will look for us there." "We'll leave first thing." "But we'll die of cold here." " It's a long walk." " That's okay." "Even in the dark, my hand found the bottle." "It's in your genes." "Don't say that." "You're taking the piss." "You're just taking the piss." "No way." "You're taking the piss!" "I'm beat, aren't you?" "You bet." "Know what?" "I'm sure he'll come here." "Why?" "You called him?" "You saw me call him?" "How can a cop interest you?" "Is cop-hate in the genes too?" "I don't give a damn about cops." "Or him." "I don't give a damn." "I know you'll do it." "Know I'll do what?" "Wait downstairs to see him coming." "He comes up." "You let him come up..." "Cut it out." "Things are fine and you have to wreck them?" "Give this crap a rest." "You'll have time to split to Canada." "Give me a break with Canada!" "He scares you, huh?" "But do you want to stay with me?" "I'm out of here." "I'm gone." "Go ahead, laugh." "I'm out of here." "You'll be back?" "Costa, you'll be back?" "Know what?" "You'll see." "He's left." "I'm at the hotel." "Come over." "On your own." "I'm in room number 1." "Where is he?" "I said he'd be back?" "Where is he?" "Was he going back to Paris?" "Where can he go?" "We found your estate agent friend." "He's alive." "His car's missing." "He can't explain but..." "I think he had a big scare." "So what happened with Costa?" "I suggested getting rid of you." "He kept talking about you." "It was driving him mad." "Bravo!" "He was sure we'd slept together." "What was the plan?" "It wasn't great." "To beat you up or something." "How would you do it?" "I don't know." "I'm not surprised." "So Costa wasn't up to smashing my face in?" "Apparently not." "You'd have let him do it?" "I don't know." "Maybe I'd have defended you." "Thanks!" "Couldn't you tell we'd try?" "You bet I could." "I'm drunk." "It's wrong to take advantage." "I gave him the strength to leave." "What am I giving you?" "The desire to stay?" "Stop!" "Stop it!" "You've made enough of a din." "Shut it now." "Shut it." "What was he doing on you?" "You were gonna fuck again?" "Sure, I believe you." "Let's think about this." "This jerk never saw me coming." "Thought I was a loser." "How's it feel now?" "Okay?" "I'm going to throw up." "Go ahead, puke!" "Okay?" "We have to get out of here." "Feel up to it?" "Try to breathe." "We have to go." "Please." "We can't stay here." "Go on." "I'll get your things." "Go on." "Look here..." "We have to leave." "Are you up to it or not?" "I think so." "Otherwise we stay with him." "Let's go then." "Breathe." "Cool." "Let's go." "We've had it." "No way." "I'll calm down, I promise." "Sure." "You can't even puke." "Come with me." "Come on." "Don't move." "Want to kill me too?" "Talk crap if it helps you feel better." "Open your mouth!" "Come on, please, open it." "Open it!" "It's to help you puke." "See, you're safe." "The safety's on." "It doesn't work." "Everything's fine." "Calmed down now?" " I'm not scared now." " You're not?" "Great." "I'm not scared, Costa." "That's good." "What do you see in me?" "You think like the cop." "The cop's not thinking much now." "You killed him?" "He's alive, dammit!" "If I'd killed him, it'd be your fault for turning him on." "Okay, let's go." "Another crap idea!" "Brilliant!" "Letting him croak in the room is just as dumb." "Leave me alone." "We'll take you with us." "We can't leave you here." "No, leave me." "We won't hurt you." "You broke my shoulder, piss off." "Leave me alone." "This one?" "I've had enough of this." "Come with us." "He's coming too." " Come on." " No." "Please." "No, it's okay." "Piss off." "Piss off, Costa!" "Leave me!" "Help!" "Shut your fucking mouth!" "We're taking you to get help." "Let's go!" "Get out!" "Move it!" "Wait for me here!" "Move it!" "It's you?" "Okay?" "I need to talk to you." "Trouble?" "Don't worry." "Go to the bedroom." "Listen here..." "Keep it shut and stay in bed." "If you want me to." " Can you do that?" " Sure." "I'll cover you up." "Don't move." "It's cool?" " No sweat." " Keep it shut." "See you later." "Okay, come in." "Come on, Cyril." "Is the armchair okay?" "Or the couch maybe." "Help him, Camille." "Door's locked." "Is it the collarbone?" "It's nothing." "I broke mine as a kid." "I tripped over a chair, hit that dumb table leg and bust my collarbone!" "You'll be okay." "I didn't even yell." "It'll pass." "Look after him." "I'll be back." "Dad?" "Got any of those elastic bandages for varicose veins?" "Look in the medicine cabinet." "Help yourself." "Behind the door." "Great!" "You're organized." "This'll help." "What's up?" "She cut your tongue too?" "You can't talk?" "What is this?" "It's not cool!" "Stop pissing him off." "Okay, I'll shut up now." "What the hell have you done now?" "I'll be right back." "What is this?" "I ask you to do something..." "Shut the fuck up!" "Shut up!" "I told you to keep it shut!" "So shut it!" "I'm sorry, I couldn't help it." "I've been a real asshole." "I apologize." "I'm sorry." "Screw that." "Apologize in court." "That's not nice of you." "You're so trustworthy, it's scary!" "Dad, start again and I'll belt you one." " I'm your father." " Shut up!" "Is that clear?" "Shut up!" "If I come back..." "Shut up!" "Shit, two lovebirds!" "We let him go now." "And then?" "Then we go back." "Back where?" "To Paris." "The two of us together?" "Seriously?" "Yeah, but no more screw-ups." "You start all the screw-ups." "Know what?" "We're so fond of you, we'll keep you a while." "Fantastic!" "It's her." "I don't give a shit." "Let's go to the hide." "You'll show him?" "Come on, let's go." "Come on, Camille." " Dad, I'm out of here." " See you." "And thanks." "Day 4" "Come on, get out." "I want to dump your car but the water's too shallow." "What would you do?" "Move." "You ask him how to dump his own car?" "What?" "It doesn't really matter." "You see?" "I hop out and let it run into the tall grass." "Will that work?" "If you want." " Move." " You're hurting me." "Great situation, huh?" "It's wicked!" "You said that already." "I said that already." "You think he's handsome now?" "After the beating I gave him." "You're less high and mighty now." "Sure, it took real guts to attack me from behind." "Don't you feel like a shit?" "How about you?" "You get fondled and you cry, "Rape!"" "Like with me." "Go ahead, kiss him." "Kiss him!" "Kiss him." "Show me!" "We cut the crap now." "We'll pretend I never came to the hotel." "I'm not kidding." " What was happening?" " Cut it out!" "You were fondling her tits?" "Show me how." " I forget how." "Show me." " Cut it out, it's absurd." "What were you doing?" "What were you doing?" "Turn him on!" "Show him how you did it." "Like when I turned up." "I like to know what goes on when I'm not there." "Show me." "Turn him on, dammit!" "Go on!" "Cut it out." "Go on, dammit!" "I'm not kidding!" "Shut it!" "Hurry it up!" "I'll sit here and watch." "Is he hard?" "Cut it out, Costa." "I'm talking to her!" "Is he hard?" "No, not yet." "Not yet." "You'd rather fuck an impotent guy than me?" "Getting anywhere?" "He's still not hard?" " You need to go out." " I need to go out?" "Why?" "So he can get hard." "I'll show you who's going out!" "Come here!" "Hurry it up!" "Move it!" "Get out of here!" "Against the wall!" "Hurry it up!" "Press against the wall!" "Press against it, dammit!" "Freeze!" "Press against it!" "You're turned on now?" "Yeah, it gets me hard." "Don't move, okay." "You can caress me and suck me off." "If I feel your teeth, I'll waste you." "You need a gun to get hard?" "The first time, in Paris, I wasn't armed, right?" "Was I?" "Come on." "Fuck!" "Come here!" "Get out!" "Get out, dammit!" "You wanted her?" "You can have her!" "Fuck!" "You weren't going to fuck him at the hotel?" "Your cop pals haven't turned up." "They're not smart in the police." "I'd have made good cop." "You know Canada?" "No." "How about you?" "Talk about Canada as if you knew it." "With Kim." "And Camille too." "Imagine the lakes..." "I don't know..." "A log cabin..." "No electricity but you can make a fire." "There's a chimney." "As animals, they have caribou, moose..." "I think they have wolves too." "You can fish for salmon." "The caribou, can you hunt them over there?" "Yeah, you can, no problem." "But you need a licence for cops." "By the way, can I have my gun back?" "You're a funny guy." "Want to come with us?" "Three's more fun." "You can find a girl there." "You're pregnant by me and you're happy." "Not by him, by me!" "She couldn't care less." "Here..." "Fuck!" "What is it?" "My dad's ratted on me." "What?" "He knows nothing!" "How else did they guess?" "Come here, Cyril!" "Come here, please!" "You're paranoid." "They'll have seen the car." "They'll be back with more." "Those weren't police cars." "You know why?" "He didn't tell anyone about us." "And that estate agent guy..." "He was too shit-scared to talk." "And no one asked him." "Your boss won't believe you." "Did you call in sick?" "You didn't?" "Don't forget to do it, okay." "And we're off on holiday." "With our best pal." "A cop, so we have it easy." "Any trouble, we say you're a cop." "Isn't that cool?" "If that version suits you..." "I like that version." "Yeah." "You trust me?" "Why?" "I have to do something." "Where?" "Not far." "I'll be right back." "Okay." "What's she doing?" "She's not going far." "I don't know." "Happy with that?" "You were tougher once." "I can't keep her on a leash!" "What's going on?" "Life makes the bad things, not us." "Costa doesn't know it but he needs you." "He came back for you and his daughter." "And if I can help in any way..." "Trust me." "Come with me." "You think I'm stupid?" "It's you he needs, not me." "Right..." "I keep apologizing but no one listens." "Did you, for kissing her?" "Maybe you didn't kiss her?" "I did." "You see?" "What would you have done?" "I don't know." "I'd never have attacked you from behind in any case." "Want to shoot the ducks with me?" "Do I look like I shoot plastic ducks?" "You're scared you'll miss." "They were better when we were kids." "They used wood then." "I have to tell you something." "Gwen..." "I'm seeing her." "What?" "I'm going out with Gwen." "You drop this on me now?" "Shit, you have to have them all!" "You're a sly customer too." "Okay, forget it." "Let's move on." "Forget all that." "I owe money." "The estate agent gave me a loan." "You call that a loan?" "Yeah, he's a pretty cool guy." "If he's a cool guy, know what?" "Give him back his dough fast." "I'm gonna do it." "So do it." "Okay?" "And you?" "You're with her?" "Not really." "She's kind of complicated." "So?" "That's the problem." "Hold on, you were with Cyril." "It's over." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "When I saw Kim, I felt sick." "She didn't tell you?" "No but..." "I saw it didn't go well." "You saw?" "You knew that when you saw her?" "Want to make a fresh start?" "With a little willpower, why not." "We'd be happier as three, right?" "Yeah." "Sure." "You'll wait for me on the Blain hill again." " Can we go back there?" " If you want." "You're so pretty." "You haven't changed a bit." "That's sweet." "Think it's for you?" "I hope so." "I have to get a letter to a post-box fast." "It's important." "You don't mind?" "No." "Cyril, can I borrow your car?" "Good, you're asking now!" "I don't work solo." "Tell me now." "You've always worked solo." "You still won't?" "Bastard!" "Can we give you a ride?" "It's okay." "We'll walk." "You'll leave the car at the post office?" " See you." " Bye." "Can you take the pain?" "Yeah, I'll be okay." " Can you go around on foot?" " I'll have to." "Think I'll let some provincial cop have me?" "Look, that makes me sound like just anybody." "I think I stand my chances." "Subtitles:" "Lan Burley" "Subtitling:" "C.M.C." " Paris"
