"He's not going to do anything stupid,is he?" "No, please no!" "Take the car back to the garage,tomorrow." "And tell Verplancke to replace the tyres." "What's up, Mike?" "Like to join 'em?" "Is he staying here?" "He knows his way back." "Does he have many visitors?" " As if I notice." "I've got my own worries." " You've got eyes,haven't you?" "See any cars you didn't recognize?" "Not that I know of." "Hi Mike!" "So they didn't ask you to join them on their trip then?" "What are you doing here?" "Let's go inside and have a chat." "Got a search warrant?" " Going to be difficult?" "Come on." "Miss." "We've found two girls." "From Russia..." "Don't you go looking for women there, every now and then?" "Not me!" " Not you, no." "Of course not." "You're just the driver." "You only get the leftovers." "Where did those two girls lose their heads?" "What d' you mean?" " What do I mean?" "Their heads were missing." " Why are you asking us?" "Raymond van Mechelen brings a lot of Russian girls into Belgium." "He's not the only one!" "Clem." "Just a minute." "I do want to talk." "But not to him." "I don't trust him." "He's too close to Van Mechelen." "I..." "I need protection." "Then you'll have to prove that you really mean it." "I didn't kill anybody." " Nobody said you did." "Go and check out Jan Verplancke's garage." "A green jeep." "A Chevrolet." "And let your superiors know that I've got a lot more to tell them." "A hell of lot more..." "But I want some guarantees." "Want to know what I've just heard?" "You've got a gun licence." "Let's have a look at your gun." "It got nicked from my locker at the gun club." "I reported it." " Now why didn't I think of that?" "VILNIUS-LITHUANIA" "Change over, girls!" "Change over." "More expression!" "More expression!" "Good merchandise, eh?" "Take it easy, Mark." "Did you see that clown here?" "He's close to losing it." "Did you hear how much he's charging for each bird this time?" "Anas ask her to stand up stand" "She won't take much work." "You can see she's a horny number." "Sit down." "Deborah Pogodina?" "Pogodina, You are selected." "Tell her Arnas." "You're selected" " Me?" "Can I go with you?" " Yes." "Great." " Your contract." "You will get more explanation in a moment." "Thank you." " It's ok." "Just look at that!" "Thouhgt they didn't have any food here!" "Sit down." "Djina Plevokaité?" "Sorry, you got to need more practice." "We can't take you with us." "Well look whos here!" "It's Clem." "Long time no see." "Hello Jan. How's things?" "Rumour has it yougone back to your old career." "You shouldn't believe all you hear." "See Mike Simons lately?" " Mike?" "What a coincidence!" "He was just here with Ray's car." "Run out of petrol or something?" "No, it needed a general once-over." "That's what we planned to do, give it a thorough once-over." "You'd better show me some paperwork." "You can't just take it!" "Jan, Jan..." "OK?" "OK." "It's all yours." "Sit down." "Tell us something about yourself." "I'm Kasandra Varnelyté, friends call me Kasia." "I'm 19." "I live in Vilnius." "And, I like dancing and music,techno,rock..." "Why do you want to join our group?" "I like to travel And visit another countries." "One who likes to travel..." "Maybe you can find someone to married, in Belgium" "No, I want to come back and open my own restaurant in Vilnius." "But, I don't have money." "I'm 19,you know..." "Do you have a boyfriend?" "Why do you want to know?" " Still a virgin, eh?" "Are you looking for dancers or for virgins?" "That's contract." "It's written in another language..." "Yes, that's Greek,but we'll explain you everything you want to know." "Yes, but why is it in greek?" " We can tell you why, but in half an hour." "Ok." "You are Zemyna Markevicuté?" "Zemyna, O.K. sit down." "Ray." "Guess who just left." "Your old buddy, Clem." "And he took your Chevrolet with him." "How come, Jan?" " He asked how Mike was doing..." "Will they find anything?" " No, I'd changed the tyres." "Nice work." "I know where Mike lives." "Want me to pay him a visit?" "You're not going to Mike's!" "No way!" "Don't start putting ideas into his head." "Wait till I'm back." "I don't want to hear it!" "Understand?" "OK, I won't!" "But they simply can't do this!" "A contract in Greek!" "We're not signing this without knowing what it says!" "In a minute you'll be able to ask them anything you want." "I want to know exactly what it says." "Then ask them for a translation." "It's only a piece of paper." "If you don't like it you can always leave." "Ladies..." "Does everybody understand Russian?" "Your contract are in Greek because our tour starts with a holiday on Cyprus." "Four weeks on Cyprus, so we can rehearse and get to know each other better." "And after Cyprus we'll go to Belgium,Holland and Germany." "Shows have already been booked in the fanciest clubs there." "For the trip, training, costumes and accommodation on Cyprus you have to pay us 3,000 dollars." "Don't worry!" "You only have to pay if you break the contract." "As for the others, we'll deduct it from your salary from the first shows." "You'll recoup the money in two months." "Easily." "How much is that in Litas?" " Don't know" "Shut up and listen!" "Your parents have to sign to confirm they guarantee payment." "Without that guaranty you can't go with us." "Understand?" "What crap!" "Three thousand dollars..." "That's a rip-off!" "My dad will never agree to sign it." " Neither will mine!" "Now I'll never get away from here." "We can always sign it ourselves!" "Bye." "I understand your doubts but I don't want to be stuck here forever." "I can't stand it any longer." "I want to get out of here!" "Excuse me." "Do you come from the audition?" "What do you want to know?" " What did he say?" "Who are you?" " I'm Nico Maes." "I'm from Belgium, I'm a journalist." "Do you have some time to talk?" "Wait, please wait." "It's very important." "Can I offer you a drink?" "5 minutes." "Please." "Those man have nightclubs in Belgium and in Holland." "So what?" "What's wrong with the nightclubes?" "But, this are not normal nightclubs where people can come to dance." "They will force you into prostitution." "What is he saying?" "Prostitution?" "How do you now?" "They can't force us to do that, can they?" "He came all the way from Belgium just to tell us that?" "What is the matter to you?" " What is the matter to me?" "It's just not fair,I mean..." "I'll have to warn you" "You want to write article about us?" "Or what?" "About poor young girls from eastern Europe, looking for a better life in your country." "Listen." "They gave to you a 2 year contract, didn't they?" "In greek!" "We have to go." " No, no, wait,please wait." "You can call me at any time, O.K?" "If you want to speak, just call me, and believe me, I know a lot about these guys." "O.K. Bye." "I'm stay at hotel Unio." "Hotel Unio." "Shit!" "It's not like when you where still working for Ray." "That's over." "I want to get out." "That nutcase simply ordered those two girls to be shot." "You make it sound like they were nuns or something." "They had been just a bit rude to some costumers." "That's all!" "Of course, mate." "Shooting them!" "And you told all that to the cops?" "That's doesn't look too good." "Not good at all." "Who did the shooting?" "If you tell the cops you switched the tyres on his car, they'll put him away for ten years." " Ray?" "Ray van Mechelen?" "Have you gone soft in the head?" "They couldn't even hold him for ten days." "He knows far too much." "Are you going to tell Ray that I...?" "What would be in it for me?" "Would it make a difference?" "On the other hand, what would be in it for me if I kept my trap shut?" "Give me a break." "We don't have a brass farthing." "Take a look around." "Maybe she should come and work for me for a while." "In the office?" "Get real, Mike!" "Does she look like the office type?" "She's to lazy to help out with the housekeeping here!" "Dad, they'll turn her into a stripper." " Be quiet when your father is talking!" "Excuses!" "Nothing but excuses!" "Do you think I get paid for nothing?" "Do you think I don't have to suck up to my boss?" "I want to get out of here." " Well, what are you waiting for then?" "Shouldn't we make sure we'll be OK there?" "Be OK there?" "It can't get much worse than this." "They'll turn you into prostitutes?" " How do you now?" "I'll pay for you to listen and look around,OK?" "That's what I did." " Arnas is losing, Idon't trust him anymore." "The Russian girls are okay." " Not very smart but okay." "What was the name of that pain-in- the ass?" "Wanted to open a restaurant?" "Kasandra, you know her?" "She could be a troublemaker, watch her." "She is from Lithuania, I can't understand when she speak Lithuanian." "But, she speaks Russians, too." " But not much,she talks to the other Lithuanians." "Kalinka, watch her, I don't trust her." "Are you Jurga?" "You probably don't remember me." "I'm here about my daughter." "Can you spare a few minutes?" "What for?" " My daughter wants to go to Belgium." "With men, who come here to recruit girls." "I'm afraid they want to turn her into a prostitute." "Would you please talk to her?" "You, er..." "I don't know what you're on about." "She's only seventeen." "If you..." "It's a matter for a police." " She's only seventeen..." "Come to Haidis Theatre tomorrow." "Otherwise I'll come back and talk to you husband." "Lad, you're scaring her." " Come on, you'll see tomorrow." "Kalinka, I'm not angry at you, but I want you to be careful." "We're in this together, don't forget." "Look, we've got company." "Hello" "Sit down, honey, come on." "Sit down, honey, come on." "So, tell me,..." "What are we can do for you?" "3,000 dollars, it's a problem." "A problem?" "Why?" "My father hasn't work." "But, he only has to pay if you break the concract." "My father..." "No..." "Your father doesn't want a sign the contract?" "So, what can we do about that?" "Waiter!" "POLICE" "Good evening." "We came to ask if you could check something." "I went to an audition." "It was advertised in the paper." "They're looking for girls for a dance group for shows in Belgium and Holland." "But it seems they want to force us into prostitution there." "So, don't go then." "They gave usa contract in Greek." "Can they do that?" "Yes, they can." "If anyone is crazy enough to sign it." "But I've got a sister, Daria, who's only seventeen." "And she believes those guys." "Are you his sister?" " No, I'm a friend." "His sister wouldn't come with him." "What do you want me to do at this time of night?" "Where are these auditions?" " At the Haidis Theatre." "In Tiltas Street." "The Belgians organizing it are staying at the Ambassador Hotel." "I've got the day off tomorrow." "I'll pop by the day after tomorrow." " They may be gone by then!" "Then come back tomorrow and explain the whole thing again to my colleague." "You really had us going there, didn't you?" "I'm telling you, I saw it myself!" " Saw it, or dream it?" "That's were it fell in the water, there, where that boat is now." "And where were you?" "Up there." "Up there." "And it was dark?" "Got it!" "See?" "Now what d'you say?" "Go to Mark, 406, and make him happy." "C'mon, move on." "Go to the next door." "Dad, it says literally," "Sources told us the evidence points to Raymond van Mechelen's gang." "Cathy, I don't know anything about it!" "I swear..." "Hang on a second, darling." "What was in these will be with you in a minute." "Don't be too rough with it." "We'll be needing it later." "Cathy, do you really think Ray cut the heads off those girls?" "No, but what she read put Mum back on Prozac." "I'll call you tomorrow." "Big kiss." "Bye." "Let's try to gain some time." "There's obviously something wrong." "If we don't like it, we can come back." "Belgium's notthat far away." "If it comes to the worst we can hitchhike home!" "You have to sign a contract." "You can't walk out once you've signed." "What are they going to do?" "Lock us up?" "Come on, think for a minute. we're notprofessional dancers, are we?" "You can't eve keep good time!" "Listen..." "Wait one more day." "Just one more day." "Maybe I could go and talk to that journalist again." "Just one more day." "OK?" "OK." "Mister." "You'll wait outside, OK?" "Are you come from Belgium?" "Looking for girls here in Vilnius?" " Who wants to know?" "Come with me, please." "You have to them the truth!" "It's true." " What is true?" "Say it." "They want you to dance naked." "And you have to... 'go' with men." "'Go'..." "What do we have to do, exactly?" "You have to satisfy them..." " You're crazy!" "Come on!" "They can't force us to do that!" "Jurga." "Darling." "How are you?" "I'm OK, mister Ray." "It's been a long time." "You're still a beatiful girl." "Did you miss uncle Ray?" "And, who are you boy?" " You have a problem." "I'll go to the police." " You'll go to police?" "The police is my friends." "Isn't that right, Jurga?" " Yes, Mr Ray." "Go home, boy." "Mummy's waiting." "You'll go to jail." " Shut up." "And you.." "Go home, before I get angry." " I'm sorry Mr. Ray, really sorry." "One is cooperating." "I'm waiting for her now." "Great." "But how long have you been working on this?" "It's about time we publish something." "I wouldn't do that." "If you publish now, I'll be finished with these guys." "Do you realise how much this has cost us?" "You're enjoying yourself in your hotel while we do all the work." "Enjoying myself?" "You should see the place!" "I have to queue for a quarter of an hour just to take a dump!" "Want me to book you a suite at the Hilton?" "You've got one more week." "Bye." "So you've come after all." " We're in deep shit!" "Police!" "There was a cop waiting for me at the hotel." "What the fuck's going on?" "What did he want?" "He'd heard about Greek contracts." " Christ!" "This is fuckin' bad!" "He's coming here later to talk to the girls." "Arnas, the police come for us." "The police is not a problem, I'll take care." "And what happened to those Olgas in Doel?" "Did you really have their heads cut off?" "Vincent was with us." " Christ!" "Cathy called." "It's all over the papers." " I know." "I got a call as well." "That guy is nuts!" "Why did you fuckin' take him with you?" "How did he do it?" "You can't use a knife to..." "I didn't stay there to hold their hands!" "Seen how many of yesterday's girls are left?" "About eight or nine." " About eight or nine." "This well has dried up, man." "This well has dried up." "No problem." "I wouldn't do that too much." "'No problem. ' Clown." "Is all this necessary?" "Can't you just call when you need to know something?" "Instead, you send two police vans with sirens going..." "Come on." "Sit over there." "What will the neighbours think?" "It's bad for business!" "After all the trouble I went to, 'Good morning. ' 'How are the kids?" "'" "Everything fuckin' ruined by those noisy bloody show-offs!" "And I thought we were mates..." "We're not mates, Verplancke." "And never will be." "OK, what business did you have with Mike Simons yesterday?" "News travels fast around here!" "Did he come crying to you?" "He's becoming a regular customer." " Mr Verplancke, why were you there?" "Friendly visit." "Cup of coffee, a biscuit." "And you can call me Jan, darlin'." "You tried to blackmail him." " Now, now..." "That's an ugly word." "Mike is a pal who's in deep shit." "The more he comes here, the worse the shit." "Did you read about the two girls with no head?" "I only read the sports pages." " Right." "The way things are going, you may have plenty of time for that soon..." "Hello,can I speak with Kasandra, please?" "Kasandra?" "Kasandra,no?" " She lives here?" "Daria?" "Daria is fine." " Yes, but..." "Who are you?" " I'm Nico Maes." "I'm a journalist from Belgium." " Daria isn't here." "Wait, please." "When Daria comes back get her to phone me." "Kasandra or Daria." "Has Daria gone dancing?" "To the audition?" "But they don't dance in Belgium." "Kasandra and Daria as prostitutes." " Get lost!" "Go and bother someone else!" "She signed this herself, if you ask me." "It's not like we can choose from twenty others." "And it's not like she's an ugly cow, is it?" "Mister, please, take me." "I'm very unhappy here." "Please." " You'll have to work hard,very very hard." "OK, no problem, I'll work very good" "Really." "Please." "O.K. you're in." "You can join a group." "No, no, it stays here." "We have to arrange everything, OK?" "OK." " Next one." " Bye." "Sit down, Kasandra." "O.K. Do you have a contract?" " I need more time." "You need more time?" "Why?" "My father doesn't want to sigh the contract because it's in Greek." "You don't trust us?" "Is that it?" " No, I trust you, really." "But, you know,it's a very impotant decision for me." "I understand." "It's a chance of lifetime Kasandra." "But if you want to stay here, that's fine." "It's up to you." "But you'll be sorry for the rest of your life." "So, bye, bye, Kasandra." "Can I please come tomorrow?" "Please." "Well,tomorrow at ten o'clock, but don't be too late." "I told him to wait, but..." "That's the cop I saw this morning." "Hello, ser." "Did you see what I saw?" "See you tomorrow, Kasandra." "The gentleman wants to talk to some of the girls." " No problem." "You can bring the next cadidate in." "Please, sir, take a chair." "He's really laugh this guy, isn't he?" "Hello." "Is Daria home?" " She's already left." "What do you mean?" " She took her suitcase with her." "She's staying with those Russians girls." "They're leaving early tomorrow morning." "So she signed?" " I don't know." "Didn't she tell you?" " No." "I've tried phoning her but she doesn't answer." "You didn't have an argument, did you?" " No." "Maybe it'll be OK in Belgium." "OK?" "But Daria can't even dance!" "Congratulations." "Wellcome to the group." " Thank you." "I'm very happy." "Want to see sir?" "It's in English." "Don't believe all those stories." "If it was up to me, there would be in your language, in Lthuanian." "But I don't know how to speak it." "Godbye." "I'm sorry, excuse me." "Godbye." "You went over there anyway?" "No!" "I never saw Mike himself!" "You've got to believe me!" "Why would I lie?" "You wouldn't happen to know anything about those two birds without heads, eh?" "Why d'you ask?" "Clem was acting weird." "He's become verry pally with Mike." "It's up to you, of course..." " You're right, it's up to me." "What's up?" "We've got to do something about Mike." "He's lost it." "Danny?" "It's me." "Yeah, everything's fine." "Mike needs to be taught a lesson." "Yeah, like we agreed." "As soon as possible..." "We'll see who has the last laugh." "But do you know those Belgians who are here?" "No." "Are you sure?" "Have you seen them?" "No." "Why should I know them?" " You've worked in Belgium." "Three years ago." "And what exactly did you do there?" " I was a sales assistant." "A sales assistant..." "Do you speak Belgian then?" " A little." "But enough to be able to sell things." " I don't know what you mean." "Maybe you can reassure those girls a bit." "They think they..." " No!" "Why not, Jurga?" " Because!" "I hadn't quite finished talking yet." "There are girls who think they will be forced into prostitution." "Is life as a sales assistant so hard then, in Belgium?" "I'm not very happy, Arnas." "Do you wanna know why?" "I come here, all the way from my country" "To do business, serious business, with you." "And all I get is trouble." "Trouble,trouble and more trouble" "I understand it, but I can't arrange everything." "Yeah, right..." "I don't want to know." "I have problems with the girls, I have to talk with the police" "I'm losing time,and I fuckin' hate losing time Arnas!" "Do yo understand me?" "Really?" "Are you sure?" "You are selected the girls,so you're responsible for the girls." "That Kasandra, what's her name?" " Varnelyté" "I'm sure, she's the one who contact the police." "She's from Vilnius, I'll take care of it." "You'd better." "That's why I pay you." "Don't make me go to another arranger" "D'you think he got the message?" "Let's not get paranoid." "What are we doing?" "I'm hungry." "I've got some sausages in the freezer." "Bloody hell!" "They speakFrench and Flemish there." "The ones who speak French have the most money." "How do you know?" "You've never be there, have you?" "I read it somewhere." "Where?" "In 'How to seduce a Belgian'?" "Why didn't you wait for me, like we agreed?" "I signed." "I'll be out of here tomorrow." "You signed?" "You'll be sold." "How can you be so stupid?" "Didn't you hear what that journalist said?" "A journalist!" "You don't believe the newspapers, do you?" "Don't you want to understand?" "You'll become a whore!" "A slut!" "Don't you care about anything anymore?" "Is nothing important anymore?" "You'll become a whore, a prostitute." "Isn't she smart enough to decide for herself?" "Mind your own business!" "You don't know what we're talking about." "If I were you, I'd leave her alone." " Get lost!" "Stop fighting." "Pull her off." "Calm down." "Slut." "Come with me, you." "Calm down." "Go on, get her out of here." "You did a good job, Arnas." "See you next time." "Moron." "You won't see me here again." "He can go suck eggs." "Those were the last birds from him." "Come on girls, get in." "Daria, wait." "Where's Kasia?" "She didn't want to come." "She left angry yesterday." "Tell her I'm sorry about everything." "That I'll miss her." "I'll call her." "We're leaving." "I've got to go now." "Give Mum a big kiss from me."
