"No." "It's show time." "I've been speaking to Jose." "Maite's in barcelona." "We'll need someone for the kidnapping." "Pick it up." "What's it like to kill someone?" "Like screwing." "You do and that's that." "No, we're not going to kill anybody." "We'll hold her for a few days, her family pays and it's over." "Yeah, I know." "But what's it like?" "Some people don't feel anything." "Others enjoy it some people wet themselves." "I've seen people piss themselves after shooting someone." "What about you?" "You don't have to do it if you don't want to." "No, no, it's not that." "Don't worry you really don't have to if you don't want to." "It's just there's so many things, you know." "It's silly, but the thought of not going to cinema or do the puppet show." "I know I'm being stupid..." "The thought of not seeing mum or dad, oh shit..."

"bloody shit Arian." "Turn that crap off." "Is this it?" "Those bastards are such a bunch of amateurs." "What's the matter?" "This is full of water." "We'll have to put her in the stable." "We'll take it in turns to watch over her." "I just want to let you know this is nothing personal." "It's your father's fault you've been arrested he has to pay up 1000 millions." "As long as he does so, you'll be okay." "What the hell happened there?" "You said 7 minutes and took 13." "That's it." "Where did that car come from?" "The garage door was supposed to be blocked till we got out." "And next time put this on." "Newsflash" "We inform you of a new attack by ETA." "According to sources close to the Home Office Isabel Ulloa, daughter of the factory owner, Alejandro Ulloa, has been kidnapped." "It would be the second time in the group's history, that ETA have chosen a woman as their kidnap victim." "Excuse me, I'm just receiving a new fax from the agency EFE." "There's just been an explosion in the centre of Pamplona." "Looks like a car bomb was placed inside the van used by the terrorists for the kidnapping." "According to this fax there's been a fatality." "Turn it off!" "The bomb was presumably aimed at the police a young man who decided to park beside the van must have caused the explosion." "We've heard enough." "Out, I want to sit with her." "She's not very good company..." "...hardly said a word at all." "We'll get along fine then." "We'll take it in turns to take the rubbish out and bury it." "I don't like her being with the girl." "She knows what she's doing." "She's new and that's always dangerous." "You agreed to have her here, right?" "It'll be fine." "Still, I want you to keep an eye on her." "You sound like a facist." "You know VivaIdi?" "people like you will put an end to this organization." "She's just a bit nervous." "I'll calm her down." "A good shag that's what she needs it relaxes them." "Do you love me?" "What are you asking that for?" "Of course I Iove you." "What about you?" "What do you think, silly?" "I'm here, aren't I?" "You're here because you're an idealist." "How about you?" "I like taking risks." "You know the life expectancy of a fighting activist?" "Five years." "Then it's either prison or death." "I've lasted for 8 years and I still haven't made a decision." "Nobody can choose, can they?" "Choice is always unintentional" "Hey." "What?" "Could you get the girl please?" "What for?" "I need to speak to her." "No." "please." "There's nothing you can say to her that you can't say to me." "It's got to be her." "What the hell do you want?" "A sanitary towel." "She's got her period." "She needs a sanitary towel." "Yes" "Come here." "What's the matter?" "Come here, man." "Knock before you enter next time." "When's Koldo coming?" "Before midnight, all going well" "He might not be here till tomorrow."

"I can't stand it any longer." "If we don't hear from Koldo by tomorrow we'll execute her and cross the border." "I'll do it." "No, she'll do it." "Have you heard from my parents yet?" "Eat." "They'll be concerned." "Can I talk to them?" "No, eat." "Are you going to kill me?" "Shut up and eat." "Who will kill me then?" "Nobody's going to kill you." "We're not murderers." "I don't know if you read the newspapers or watch the wretched state t.v out to screw us but we're not murderers, got that?" "Let Paco do it." "No, Arian's doing it." "Does it really matter?" "Who's going to know?" "I don't care who knows." "If it's got to be done, then Arian's doing it." "You're a bastard." "That's why I'm still alive." "She hasn't slept a wink." "You shouldn't be so concerned about her." "Why not?" "Perhaps you have to kill her." "Excuse me." "Would you let me walk around a bit?" "My legs are really hurting." "Just for a few minutes." "please they really hurt." "Thanks." "Who are you?" "That's a stupid question." "careful." "I've never understood why you do it." "We don't look for understanding." "What are you looking for?" "That's another stupid question" "Aren't you allowed to talk to people you've kidnapped?" "Imprisoned." "Do you think I care about the difference?" "I do." "Why?" "When you understand why, you'll have learnt something." "What the fuck's going on?" "Her legs were hurting." "Yeah..." "Get out." "You could do with a rest." "Are you okay?" "Yeah." "Sure?" "Yes." "Take no notice ofJosé." "He's just a bit nervous." "He's pissed off a novice is being so laid back." "Good." "Would you be as calm if you had to kill her?" "Yes, I would." "Would you kill her?" "Do you have any doubts?" "Do you have any doubts?" "No." "I could kill her." "I know." "Not now, I'm tired, okay?" "help me, Patxo!" "Bastards!" "Come on, let's go." "For fuck's sake, Arian." "Let me go!" "...at the rural house where Isabel Ulloa was kidnapped." "Though the others members of the commando escaped with the industrialist's daughter, a policeman and the terrorist Javier Torres Barreira were killed." "They mentioned VivaIdi on the news." "That's the way it is." "One man's life for everyone's." "Yeah." "It's always the same,isn't it?" "It's different when it's someone you share your life with." "I'm sorry." "You have to do it." "You do it." "I told her we weren't murderers." "We aren't." "I can't do it." "Yes, you can." "VivaIdi said you would." "Keep the engine running." "What are you doing?" "Shut up!" "Come on." "The girl." "Where's the girl?" "Let me speak to the girl." "I need her." "Shoot, shoot!" "Don't kill me!" "Don't kill me, please!" "Shoot, damn it." "Come on!" "I can't." "Shut up, damn it!"

"Doesn't look like an accident." "Look at the tyre marks." "It's like they tried to change direction..." "I've simulated the car's trajectory." "Up until here, the car's going the right way." "Then it turns sharply here." "You can see the shift in the tyre marks." "I don't know if they had an argument or if they were going too fast..." "Have you read this?" "They say we trapped them and killed them point blank." "What the hell do you expect?" "I spoke to a policeman who was at the assault." "He says there were 4 in the getaway car." "We've got the girl and the two from the car." "That leaves one missing." "We have to find the fourth one" "Check the finger-prints from the hide-out see if they match any from the car."

"VivaIdi était un bon gars." "Yeah I'll never see him again" "Do you know what my dad said when they killed my brother?" "He said life was like an obstacle race you have to run and jump if you trip over and fall you have to get up and keep on running." "Remember the guys the police found in the Lumbiere Ravine?" "My brother was one of them." "They said it was suicide." "But I've never believed it." "My brother had guts and if there's one thing he taught me, it's not to keep on running, but keep on running faster." "Tomorrow, we'll cross the border." "We've got to appear before the executive." "What for?" "The rules." "They want first hand info." "Where are you going?" "I'm meeting a contact business." "I've got some news." "Tell me." "I'm going to need something in return." "More?"

"I was told he might know something about my daughter." "I'm sorry, I don't know anyone called Andoni." "I don't believe my daughter killed that girl." "I've got to know for sure." "I'm sorry, I've already told you, I don't know him." "I didn't think you were coming back." "I've brought us some food." "What's the matter?" "You haven't said a word all night." "I'm just tired." "I don't feel like talking." "You'd better go to bed." "You could do with a rest." "What do you think happens afterwards?" "After what?" "Death." "Who cares." "Do you want some advice?" "Stop thinking." "I was supposed to kill the girl but I couldn't do it." "Jose had to do it." "Could you have done it?" "Would you have killed her?" "I'd have killed her." "Maite." "Go ahead with the terrorist flat." "The other question, the answer is yes." "Clean it up." "It doesn't matter if they find out." "Can I speak to Andres Villanueva please?" "I'll need some men."
