"It sure has been a long time." " Welcome home!" " Thank you." "Daddy!" "Dolf!" "Hi there!" "I didn't know you'd come to get me, Hannes." "Wow, your moustache is awesome." "Everything is crystal clear now." "I mean the state this country is in." "In a poor one, huh?" "The king is pitiful and every single minister is lousy." "Exciting things happened while you were abroad." "Like what?" "The king tricked Alfred." "What are you saying?" "The money is gone?" "Hey, don't snap." "Is it true?" "How can you know about the money?" "Alfred was raising funds to build canals in a country tormented by a drought." "That's all I know." "Yeah, exactly." "Alfred loaned the money to the king, but the king never paid it back." "They say the royal family's treasury is empty." "Why the heck did he do that?" "He should have given the money to us and it would have been of some use." "Well?" "Have they got the money back from the king?" "There's been all kinds of hassle and the king almost lost his crown." "But then he apologized and gave the money back." "If the king almost lost his crown because of a little thing like that you'd think it shouldn't be that difficult to get rid of him." "Listen here, Dolf." "What are you planning?" "What am I planning?" "Great things!" "I will become the leader of this country!" "Here we go again." "Are you laughing?" "Not at all." "I'm just wondering if you can do it." "Of course I can." "What do I need to become the leader of this country?" "I know." "Power!" "Yes, power." "And with what do you get power?" "Money!" "You can't get people moving without money." "All I need is money." "Work not going well?" "Not really." "I know what it should be like, but when I get it on paper, it's not what I meant." "How about you forget it for a while and play chess with me?" "I guess you're right." "I could use a game of chess right now." "I wonder who it is." "It's late." "Hey there, Alfred!" "Long time no see!" "How are you, Dolf?" "I've been abroad for a while." "Oh, really?" "Did you have something to say?" "May I come in?" "Sure." "Hey there, Henk, my man!" "You've sure got a handsome moustache there, pal." "You've got a nice place." "What's this?" "A new version of the water grass mower." "A mower?" "Yeah." "If everything goes well, its capacity will be tripled." "You'll get a lot of money out of it, huh?" "If I can sell it." "Sure you can." "You've already earned a fortune." "I hear you sold the others, too." "But most of the money will be used to dig canals in a country suffering from a drought." "I've heard about your wonderful work." "But it was a mistake to loan the money to the king." "I know." "I won't do it again." "I'll be more careful from now on." "If you loan the money to me, you'll get it back double or triple." "To you?" "Not to me personally but for my campaign." "Oh, your campaign?" "Exactly." "I plan to do something revolutionary." "I already have support." "Are you kidding?" "Of course not!" "Think about the direction of this country." "The king doesn't care about politics." "The people have lost trust in him." "The ministers are just kissing ass." "Unemployment keeps going up." "Nobody is doing anything!" "Is that so?" "Yeah, you're trying to improve the conditions of a foreign country, but you don't even know what's going on in your own country." "Maybe the king isn't perfect, but he's not as bad as you say." "Monarchy is outdated." "I have decided to create a new political system in this country." "Like I said, I only have a few supporters, but we're going to found a political party." "Sounds vigorous." "True, and we need money for that." "What?" "Money!" "We can't do anything without money." "To spread the ideology, to rent the headquarters and to win the elections, we need money above all else." "Get it?" "Yes, but " "You do?" "I knew you would." "So, you'll now loan me money, right?" "I know it's important money to you, so I won't waste it like the king." "You'll get your money back double or triple." "How are you going to double or triple it in politics?" "I knew you'd ask." "This will stay inside these walls." "I'm sure my campaign will bear fruit pretty soon." "I'll soon have all power." "I won't permit any opposition, so I can use the country's money as I please." "Then I will invest ten or hundred times the amount Alfred will loan me into his company." "You can expand your business as much as you want." "You'll get a double or triple profit for what you'll now invest in my project." "Stop!" "I've had it." "Stop!" "I want you to loan me as much money as you have right now." "Listen here, Dolf!" "You understand what this is all about, too, right?" "You're cuckoo." "Cuckoo?" "You talk like you're delirious." "Get it already!" "If you have enough money, you can control the minds of the people." "You should leave." "I don't have any money anymore." "I've sent it to a trustworthy organization in the country tormented by a drought." "It's not enough." "They need a lot." "That's why I send more whenever I can." "Why are you forgetting the needs of your own country?" "No matter how much money I had, I'd never give it to you of all people." "But you gave it to the king." "And that was a bad mistake." "My money won't be gambled." "Gambled?" "Did you say gambled?" "Yes." "I think it's a gamble." "What?" "I can't believe that anyone would be interested in your campaign." "Wrong!" "There are such people!" "Now, now." "You really are cuckoo." "You're cuckoo!" "I will reform this country and you'll regret this." "I will be the leader of this country!" "What a show." " I need tea." " Same here." " Dad?" " Yes?" "Surely nobody is interested in Dolf's campaign?" "I don't think so." "I'll be surprised if someone joins him." "There can't be that many of them." "But I don't know what will happen if Dolf gets money from somewhere." "Good thing Dolf is no business genius." "Dolf!" "Are you still hanging around here?" "Hey, Alfred." "Couldn't you reconsider it?" "I'm no business genius and you're my only hope." "Even if you ask a hundred times, the answer is no." "We're such close friends that maybe I was a little too aggressive." "I only aim to see justice prevail." "I want justice to return to this country." "Unbelievable rubbish!" "You believe me, right?" "I don't think I do." "Fine, then." "Don't forget this evening, you two!" "I will never forget this either." "Goodbye, gentlemen!" "Dolf is justice!" "Unbelievable." "He has gone insane." "Dolf is justice!" "Don't, Alfred!" "I have a bad feeling." "Let's try to forget about him as soon as we can." "You're right." "Awesome." "You quit already?" "Playing billiards is just a waste of time." "You're always in pissy mood now." " Do you have money?" " Money?" " I'd get a drink." " No, I don't." "I don't have either." "You losers." "Cheer up." "You haven't been yourself lately." "Guess why?" "I don't have money or a job." "But you have a dream." "You want to become the leader of the country." "Oh, that?" "Nobody's taking it seriously." "I was talking to the unemployed, and they said, "Get us work." "Your speeches won't fill our stomachs."" "How on Earth will I get those fools to listen to me?" "Do you need to make them listen to you?" "Yes, and they won't listen at street corners, but they will if you offer them some bread and games." "And I need money for that." "Don't give up." "I'm starting to get hungry." "Are you Dolf?" "Yes." "Are you certain?" "Nobody would take me for Alfred." "Everyone knows I'm Dolf!" "Good day." "I'm a lawyer." "I've come here to tell you that you've become a rich man." "W-what?" "!" "What did you say?" "What did you say?" "You're a rich man, Dolf." "It seems unemployment is getting worse." "Really?" "It must feel bad to be unemployed." "Of course." "I'm a lucky guy." "What?" " Guess what!" " No need to yell!" " Unbelievable." " What?" "What is?" " You'll be surprised, too." " Tell me already." "Dolf has inherited money." "He's filthy rich now." " No way." " That's what it says." "Wait a minute." "Did Dolf have some rich " "A man called Fink and Dolf were old pals." "But it says that Dolf himself doesn't really know why Fink left his money to him." "Fink..." "Oh, that crook." "He gained his fortune with tricks and scams." "Dolf has inherited dirty money." ""I accept the money as a gift from God and will use it for my country, not for myself."" ""I will found a political party whose mission is to bring back justice to this country."" ""Its name will be the National Crows Party."" "Are these people waiting to join the party?" "Exactly." "In the line if you want the same." "There'll be a registration fee." "I know." "Is it now guaranteed that we'll get work?" "Of course." "The president doesn't lie." "President?" "President Dolf of the National Crows Party." "There he comes." "Dolf is justice!" "Members of the National Crows Party march everywhere with heads high and chanting the party's slogans." "The National Crows Party has grown into a powerful force in a short time." "The organization is starting to look more and more like a private army." "The existence of the NCP could seal the fate of our kingdom." "Things are developing into an unexpected direction." "But why?" "I wonder what will happen to us." "I plan to dedicate the rest of my life to making justice prevail in this country!" "But what is justice?" "Justice is that all citizens of this country get to be happy!" "Happy!" "Dolf is justice!" "Let us banish all those who enjoy privileges!" "I say it as it is!" "Our country doesn't need a king!" "Give us your support!" "Give your support to the NCP and the party's president!" "Dolf is justice!" "This is really unbelievable." "As you can see, the situation is very unfortunate." "This Dolf is much more popular than you." "We have to do something before it's too late." "Van Kale Koen sees the situation as too grim." "Colonel Rangpang?" "Yes?" "I hear the National Crows Party has its own army." "Are they going to attack us?" "I'd like to hear your opinion." "As you all know, the army and navy of our country are better at marching than war." "Dolf is even demanding the deportation of the king!" "I agree." "We have to do something and soon." "Go ahead, Minister of Finance." "I disagree with van Kale Koen and the colonel." "Dolf's actions are like a child's game." "He'll grow bored soon." "A child's game?" "I'm sorry, minister." "Have you seen Dolf excite the people?" "If you had, you wouldn't talk like that, my good sir!" "I'm sorry, gentlemen." "Does Dolf want to be king?" "It's not like that." "This isn't fair." "Dolf can become king, but I can't become Dolf." "What's this?" "Would you come with us?" "Absolutely not!" "Then we'll take you by force." "You don't have the right to arrest regular citizens in the street!" " Sure we do." " What?" "We want you away from the king." "If you don't come voluntarily, we'll force you." "Get a move on." "Wake up, Rangpang!" "Who's that?" "Clothes on!" "You're coming with us." "I take it you're from the NCP?" "What is it?" "What do you want?" "You're dead if you oppose us." "You're doomed with him." "Surely you know that?" "President of the NCP, Dolf, will soon be the leader of this country." "That's when you'll be executed." "And on charges of what?" "Treason." "Clothes on and move it!" "Excuse me." "I'd like to talk to Dolf." "What do you want?" "I want to talk to Dolf." "Dolf?" "Who?" "Dolf." "Your boss, of course." "So, you mean President Dolf?" "President?" "Can I see him?" "Impossible. 117 visitors are in line before you." "Will you stay and wait?" "But I can't promise anything." "Hannes!" "Nice to see you!" "I need to see Dolf." "Do you want to join the NCP as well?" "No." "I just need to talk to him." "Welcome, Alfred." " Hi, Dolf." " Have a seat." "I'll make you my nr. 1 investor if you've decided to give us money." "Or do you want to join the party?" "No, I don't." "I think you've understood something entirely wrong." "I beg your pardon?" "Your campaign is based on wrong things." "Stop before it's too late." "Is that what you wanted to say?" "I'll be happy to talk to you some other time." "But I'm afraid I don't have the time for you now." "Throw this crook into prison!" "What are you going to do to me, Dolf?" "Nothing at the moment, but sooner or later you will be executed." "Charged on treason because you dared to oppose me!" "Wait, don't do this!" "You're totally wrong!" "This kind of reign won't last long, Dolf!" "Yes?" "You've arrested Ollie?" "Dolf is justice!"
