Dead in 3 Days

Help Nina...

Please help Nina...

The gentle gait of forceful strides in tiny

circle is like a dance of power 'round a center,

an unconscious

great will within.

And now and then the pupil's

curtain gently opens...

to let an image in.

It wanders through...

tense silence to the heart...

Any other talents besides

citing poems, Mr. Loidl?

Well, that was Rilke.

Really, now?

Unfortunately we're not

gathered for a poetry reading,

but for final exams.

How'd it go?

And Martin?

Well... stanzas...

and the interpretation

of Rilke's 'Panther'...

are still a mystery...

in the world of poetry.

Especially to you, right?

I'll be glad to be

rid of that freak.

And I'll be glad

to be rid of it all.

Well?

Well what?

Don't tell me you flunked.

Ringer needs at least

one of us to pounce on.

And before we come to an end,

dear students, let me make

a rather daring comparison.

Life is...

...an endless hurdle.

As soon as we

take one hurdle...

...the next one comes along.

You took one of the most

important hurdles of life today.

Graduation.

But graduation

isn'tjust any hurdle.

It's also... ... the

key to the working world.

Always the same sh*t.

I'm proud and happy...

to say that all of you

without exception...

passed the final exams.

Sh*t.

There was something

on the road.

Let's call a vet.

Are you nuts? I mightjust as

well hand in my drivers' license.

We can'tjust leave it here.

It'll die, anyway.

Someone'll have

to finish it off!

Don't look at me!

You drove!

So what!

I can't do it.

But it's suffering!

Then you do it!

Me? It's your fault!

Sure. And how am I

supposed to do it?

Drive over it.

What? I don't care

what you do, just do it.

Sh*t! I can't.

I'll call a vet.

Let's go!

I had to do it, Nina!

The poor thing was suffering.

I'm really sorry, hey.

Forgive me?

I'll pick you

up tonight, O. K?

Sushi.

Mama!

How was it? Tell us.

Passed! With flying colors.

How long did it

take this time?

But they pulled themselves

together the minute you came.

Dad?

- Yes?

Can I have the car tonight?

Sure, but no alcohol.

I don't drink and

drive. You know me.

That's the problem.

Get the cash and keep it.

Thanks.

Bye!

We don't close till seven.

And the order lists need

doing. They're overdue.

Hi!

A little more oxygen...

If you say so.

Is Alex here?

I think she's upstairs.

Right.

And stick something on

here, or someone'll get cut.

Hello?

Are you nuts? Trying to

give me a heart attack?

What are you

looking for in there?

You.

But then you're

on the wrong floor.

And what if your dad comes up?

Then I'll tell him

you're the new guest...

and booked "all inclusive".

Thanks, Mom!

Hey, fuckhead. Watch it!

You got a problem?

Forget it. Sorry...

Here!

Thanks!

How about me?

You've had enough. Or do you want to

barf all over your dad's car again?

Then I'll just have

to get my own, Mommy.

Did he fall into the toilet?

What?

Did he fall into the toilet?

Why don't you go and see.

Wrong door.

Thanks.

Did you see Martin Loidl?

No.

I don't believe it.

Martin?

Martin?

What's going on?

Martin's disappeared.

He'll show up. Don't

be so hysterical.

I found his cell

phone in the bathroom.

Probably fell

out of his jeans.

Look, I got that, too.

Sh*t! Me, too.

What?

What's wrong?

- Martin's disappeared...

I got the same today.

Me, too. Why

didn't you tell me?

I was going to!

Let's go to the police.

Someone's pulling a dumb joke.

He wouldn'tjust

disappear like that.

Maybe he's drunk

and sleeping it off.

He's not like you.

What?

Nothing.

Please, you go check inside, and Mona and

I'll look out here. Then let's meet back here.

And?

- Nothing.

Sh*t!

Let's go to the police.

I shouldn't...

Give me the keys.

It's a company car and

you don't have a license.

You want to help orjust

stand there, looking stupid?

Where's Patrick?

Did anyone see him?

No. Maybe he and Martin

had another fight.

And then dissolved

in thin air?

But his sort of shitty

text fits that idiot.

He's crazy enough.

I'm really worried.

Sure you want to go in there?

Got a better idea?

I'm coming.

I'll stay in the car.

Wait for me!

Looks like somebody

pulled a joke on you.

Is missing a joke?

He's not missing till

he's gone 24 hours.

Not when he gets lost at some

party for a couple of hours.

Maybe he met someone else

and is getting his rocks off.

Not Martin, and not today.

Come on!

I know my clean cousin. He

takes anything he can get.

Can't you get it in your pigheaded

police mind that something's wrong?

Watch your tongue, or I'll cite

you for offending an officer.

What about Patrick Urban?

He and Martin knocked their

heads in half a year ago.

Maybe you should check him out.

- Don't you get it?

As long as nothing

happened, nothing happens.

If he's still gone tomorrow,

come by and we'll file a report.

Good bye!

Well? Everything O. K?

No.

Martin?

"Lt's me. "

Mom?

What's wrong? What time is it?

"Your driving instructor called.

" "Your lesson's at eleven. "

No way!

"They had to

switch the time. "

And you agreed to that? "

- Yes. "

Oh, Jesus. It's

always the same.

Thanks, Mom.

Failed already.

What do you mean?

You missed a stop sign.

If you do that at the

test, you've had it.

Take a right after the bridge.

And don't forget the blinker.

Hey, what are you doing?

Martin!

Martin!

Sorry!

Sorry!

It's okay.

Another move like that

and it's good bye license.

Go f*** yourself.

What?

I'm going nuts.

He'd call for sure.

What about Kogler?

Did you go again?

No. Martin's mom went.

The order lists still aren't

done. They have to go out today.

What's wrong? You

want to go to the lake?

Don't you have to work?

Who cares?

He needs that. He gets

bored when he has no gripes.

Let's go.

I almost wouldn't care if

he showed up with some slut.

As long as he shows up.

Try to put your mind at rest.

There's nothing we

can do right now.

That's what upsets me so.

Hello!

- Hi.

Well?

I called some people.

No one got that text.

I'm sure it was Pat.

Why?

Martin bothered him.

Maybe he kidnapped

him to get Nina.

You watch too much T.V.

I'm sure he sent the text.

He's dumb enough.

But why'd we all get it?

He was always jealous

of us, or envious.

That's no reason to kill.

If so, my Dad would long

have killed his customers.

Maybe he sent it to us all

to divert the suspicion.

Be serious!

And why three days,

not two or four?

I don't know.

Martin! Martin!

Kogler, what now?

Now listen to me.

I'm sorry, but I'm not

responsible for the investigation.

I can only

recommend, stay calm.

And stay home

till we know more.

To the left, please.

"According to investigations,

"at the graduation

party in Ebensee. "

"The young man fell victim to

a cruel crime, motive unclear. "

"A suspect was questioned"...

"but set free due to

lack of evidence. "

Martin was alive when he

was thrown into the water.

Don't blame yourself. You

couldn't have prevented it.
