Jackie Page #2

I mean, I e-mailed you three times

about that this week.

Yes, I did.

No, I want ten pages of pictures.

I don't want...

I'm sure, but it's too soft.

It has to be much more shocking.

It has to be...

Sofie?

- Hello'?

I thought I'd try this,

because I only get your voice-mail.

But I'm not...

- I know you're very busy, but...

I'm...

stuck with a rather hard issue.

Yes, but I'm on a conference call

with Sofie.

Oh Sofie, hi, it's

good to speak to you.

Hold on. Let me. Sofie?

Turn on your camera.

Makes communicating a lot more pleasant.

Hold on a sec.

- I'll wait.

I'm here.

- Jesus Christ, you look terrible.

Oh, right, I had...

What's it called'?

A leak, so...

- Right.

And the plumber

serviced you as well.

Seriously, though:

I talked to a few board members.

And I think it might be better

to drop that new direction.

No, but...

If I can do the interview,

I can write the article.

Then you'll know exactly what I mean.

But if Rosa can't track down the number,

I can't...

Hello Sofie, I've been trying

to reach you all the lime.

They agree, you see,

but it has to be done today.

Recharger!

What'? Hold on. Today'?

Yes, in a conference call.

Not on the phone.

That's fine. No problem.

Give me 30 minutes and then...

Not working anymore'?

- No, it's not.

Damn it. Now I can't work.

You know, I was thinking,

just wait until tomorrow...

...and explain...

- Please...

...you know nothing about that world.

So never mind.

Sorry. I just thought...

- You'd better not.

Jesus.

You're such a moper.

I might lose my job.

Don't you get that'?

What's wrong'?

What did you do'?

- A snake.

Easy.

Easy.

Just lie down.

Damn it, what is it here'? 112'?

No, 0611.

OK, I'm driving.

OK, I'm driving.

Sweetheart, we're going

for a quick drink.

If you need be, I'll just be next door.

OK'?

Hi, Robert.

- Jesus Christ, there you are.

Where were you?

We've been trying to get a hold of you.

The board meeting has been

put forward. Be here in an hour.

Why couldn't we reach

you yesterday?

Good thing Rosa did your interview.

She kicked ass, by the way.

If you're not here in an hour,

I'll let her handle the meeting too.

Well, do what you have to, Robert,

because I'm in New Mexico.

I've been bitten by a

snake, while you...

- Wait...

New Mexico?

America?

Jesus Christ, did I miss something?

What are you doing in America?

I mean... You live for the Crush.

Know what? I don'! care.

You 're easily replaced.

I'm easily replaced'?

You'll force your hard issue

on my replacement too'?

What the hell?

Are Rosa's interviews

as good as her blowj*bs?

Who do you think you are?

Know what?

Just stay in New Mexico.

Splitting headache.

Is he gone'?

- Hey, you're awake.

Good. How do you feel'?

- I've got a splitting headache.

My foot's all right.

Do this. It's freezing.

You won't believe it, but it's snowing.

Here's a coat. Mittens.

What are you doing'?

- How do you think we got here'?

It was her idea.

Dean, you're not doing this.

You don't have a license.

What the heck is this?

"Rosa's interviews are as good

as her blowj*bs, actually."

"PS:
You can forget about Crush.

Have fun in New Mexico."

Jesus, Daan.

F***!

Hi Robert, it's Sofie.

- The Sofie who left for America?

I'm very, very sorry.

- You're not sorry at all.

Rosa's going to handle the meeting.

- What'?

Crush no longer needs you. Right?

Cheerio!

- Robert?

Hello'?

God damn it, Daan!

- Sorry.

Let go off me!

Rosa did the interview

and the board meeting!

Rosa does a lot of stupid things.

You have no idea.

Don't let that sexist moron order you...

- You should talk!

What do you mean'?

- Don't be so two-faced.

You're conning Joost.

- What does he have to do with this?

You let yourself be dragged to an IVF

clinic while you're on the pill!

My job is none of your business.

Come on!

Why are you lying to Joost?

If you don't want kids with him,

just tell him!

Just like you told Robert

you'd work at home'?

Jesus, Daantje!

- Shut it with "Daantje".

My name is Dean,

not Daantje, damn it.

I'm just as old as you are

and just as smart.

Please, honestly...

Why do you always make me feel

I'm stupid?

I don't!

- You do!

I don't! You do that yourself.

Just think about that.

That's what I mean.

Always the same bullshit.

Always the same f***ing last word.

Always.

- Bullshit.

You can open your mouth too,

but you don't dare.

You always want to be the sweet child

Play mommy and daughter with Jackie

Awesome! Come and have a look.

Look!

This is great!

Sofie!

This is awesome! Come on.

Look!

Isn't it awesome'?

Wait, I'm going to get dressed.

- Hurry.

What did you do'?

- Nothing. She suddenly started to cry.

I think we have to make sure

that it keels like this.

Hey, Sofie.

- Hello. Look at this.

Hey, Daan.

- Hi, sweetheart.

Daan, what are you doing?

- I'm driving.

I can see that. Pullover.

This is extremely dangerous.

I could have died ten times already.

I've driven lots of miles, you know.

Daan grow up, damn it. This is not good.

Pull over right now.

May I interrupt you, Joost?

My sister is actually driving

as if she's done it all her life.

Sofie, was this your idea?

- No, our womb's.

If there's a problem, maybe...

We are...

Can't be reached.

You were very good.

What you said to Joost was sweet.

- It's just the truth.

About the pill, right'?

You don't have to justify yourself to me

- I know that, but I...

I'd be the first to understand

you don't want kids.

But I don't understand why you lie

to Joost about it.

Neither do I.

I've been taking it for a year.

- A year?

You know what it is: Every time I want

to talk to Joost about it...

...he comes up with all sorts of

arguments and reasons.

At some point I think:

Fine, you're right.

And then I just do what he says.

If you don't want kids, you don't.

End of story.

But I do want kids.

Just not with him.

Please, no. Please!

What's happening'?

What's wrong with her'?

Is she smoking a joint?

What's that'?

I've seen one before.

What'?

- Right before we left.

Why didn't you tell me'?

- I thought you'd refuse to come.

Betaseron is used with MS.

Abilities are lost, dizziness,

severe pain, bladder problems...

...memory disorder, exhaustion.

Cannabis may offer temporary relief.

Jesus!

How awful.

Maybe she has...

Does she mean she wants to die'?

What kind of bullshit is that'?

Why are you looking at me

like that, b*tch!

Dean, please.

Damn it! I...

Jesus Joost, now what?

What do you want'?

Robert.

Still, yes.

I don't know. It depends...

I thought you'd let Rosa

handle everything.

OK, so her blowj*bs are better

than her writing.

Yes, I'm sure you have a huge problem.

Your restyling idea

hits bull's eye.

They're completely convinced

of your new direction with Crush.

Sofie?

Really?

- Yes, but only with you in charge.

That's great.

- Yes, it is.

If you could be here

by the end of the week...

End of the week.
