for the kid.

Help me convince your son

to let him go.

OK for a hostage,

but not the kid.

Someone wants to talk to you.

Honey?

Mom?

What are you doing, son?

Nothing.

Nothing!

Please talk to me, dear.

Nothing, mom.

Mom, give me the...

son of a b*tch!

Get my lawyer on the phone.

Tell them I'm releasing a hostage.

Don't cry, Mom.

Hurry up!

Take them away.

It was my mother.

I don't give a sh*t

about your mother.

Wanna hear about mine?

- Last time I saw her...

- What?

...was when I was born.

He tries to screw me,

then he makes me cry.

You come with me.

- Why?

- 'Cause you're getting out.

So, let's go.

No, he stays here.

C'mon, mister.

Make the transfer

and get me his lawyer.

Rule number 1.

It's the maniac

that shows good faith.

C'mon.

C'mon.

- Why do I have to go?

- Shut up. Come with me.

Why do you want to keep him?

- He stays here. You come with me.

- Let him go.

Not without me.

Not without my son!

Hello?

Wait.

The lawyer's on the line.

Hi, Sir.

Mister...

One moment...

Mr. Bernstein,

We need you to talk the voice

of reason to your client.

Get him on the phone!

Stand up, up you go!

Let me go!

- You sure are lucky.

- So are you.

- With your gun.

- You too sure are lucky.

You're really lucky.

Let me go!

Damien, I'll be back.

Mommy's coming back!

Move.

Move. Get up.

When I say get up,

you get up!

One word

and you're dead.

Hello?

Jean-Claude, What the hell

is wrong with you?

You've got money?

Yes, of course, but...

What the f...

So then, do your job!

If you open your mouth,

you're gonna find your kid in pieces.

I'll take care of him.

What? You can't even take care

of your own kid!

It's all your fault!

They're raising the curtain!

Stand back.

Please, ma'am.

I said stand back.

Over there.

Over there, I said.

OK, so we put it

all in boxes.

I'm gonna keep

a Christmas decoration.

I like this one.

It's a little beauty.

This way, we 'II remember

it's almost Mardi Gras.

Our minds crossed.

I took a heart from my tree.

Yeah, and St. Valentine 's Day

is coming up. Hurray for love.

Dimitri's so romantic!

It's our 1,500th show today!

This movie is for me.

There we are, you and me.

Why did you do that?

Or why did I do that?

You made my dream come true.

I asked you for it.

I promised you something in return

and I haven't delivered yet.

You win, I lose.

Unless...

the path you've set for me

is full of hurdles

where the answer

comes before the question.

Yeah, I do that.

Now I know why.

It's the cure,

from what I've seen here.

It all makes sense.

It makes sense

to those who understand.

So... America,

poverty,

stealing to eat...

Stalking producers,

actors, 'movie stars',

going to clubs

hoping to see a star,

with my pictures,

karate magazines.

It's all I had.

I didn't speak English.

But I did 20 years of karate.

'Cause before I wasn't like that.

This... This is me today.

I used to be small

and scrawny.

And I took up karate.

Hence the Dojo, hence respect,

thou shall believe

people who say,

"Oss!"

It's Samurai code.

It's honor, no lies.

So this guy in the US,

it's not the same thing.

No one says "Oss" to you.

Sometimes people

in show business say,

I believed in

people, in the Dojo.

I was blessed

and had a lot of 'wives'.

I always believed in love.

It's hard for a woman

with three kids to say,

"Which one do I love more?"

A mother...

If you have 5, 6, 7

or 10 wives in a lifetime,

they've all got

something special,

but no one cares about that

in the so-called media.

What about drugs?

When you got it all,

you travel the world.

When you've been in

all the hotels,

you're the prima donna

of the penthouse.

And in all hotels the world over,

traveling,

you want something more.

And because of a woman...

Well, because of love,

I tried something

and I got hooked.

Van Damme, the beast,

the tiger in a cage,

the "Bloodsport"

man got hooked.

I was wasted mentally

and physically.

To the point that

I got out of it.

I got out of it.

But...

It's all there.

It's all there.

It was really tough.

I saw people worse

off than me.

I went from poor to rich and thought,

why aren't we all like me.

Why all the privileges?

I'm just a regular guy.

It makes me sick to

see people...

who don't have what I've got.

Knowing that

they have qualities, too.

Much more than I do!

It's not my fault

if I was cut out to be a star.

I asked for it.

I asked for it,

really believed in it.

When you're 13,

you believe in your dream.

Well, it came true for me.

But I still ask myself today

what I've done on this earth.

Nothing!

I've done nothing!

And I might just die

in this post office,

hoping to start all over

here in Belgium,

in my country,

where my roots are.

Start all over with my parents

and get my health back,

pick up again.

So I really hope...

nobody's gonna pull a trigger

in this post office...

It's so stupid to kill people.

They're so beautiful!

So, today, I pray to God.

I truly believe

it's not a movie.

It's real life.

Real life.

I've seen so many things.

I was born in Belgium,

but I'm citizen of the world.

I've travelled a lot.

It's hard for me to

judge people

and it's hard for them...

not to judge me.

Easier to blame me.

Yeah, something like that.

Dimitri's so romantic!

It's our 1,500th show today!

And I'm giving out rare items

like the red wig

"Vronique et Sbastien " never wore.

We don't know why!

It's the hat full of ideas

for reportages.

Say, Arthur?

- That's your name, right?

- Yeah.

We've gotta free

the hostages.

I can't do that, Jean-Claude.

Yes, you can. It's easy.

We just go there,

raise the curtain

and split!

Egg breaks.

How are we gonna hold out?

- It's OK. We need time.

- Wait for what? What's the plan?

The cops question her,

then what?

- They count the dough.

- After that...

Hey, what dough?

You're waiting for them

to count the million?

You crazy? What's a million?

I won't calm down.

How are you gonna get out?

She'll blab.

No, we've got the kid.

I tell you,

the first one to leave dies.

You can't kill anyone.

I'll kill whoever I like.

No more talking!

The next one out is dead.

A hostage, whatever!

Whoever you want, you got it?

We'll obtain more that way

and have the upper hand.

What are you doing?

What?

You want to hold it for me?

Let's wait for the bus...

What the bus?

We're gonna go home by bus?

Why not on the subway!

Hey, it's the

second round or what?

I'm pissing.

- Pissing?

- Yeah!

You piss silently?

Yeah, don't you?

- You piss white?

- Yeah!

You piss invisible!

Think I'm an idiot?

Why? Are you sick?

Do you piss yellow? Red?

At least, there's color.

- You're sick.

- So, I'm sick?

- I'm sick?

- Yeah.

Wait, I'm going

back to my spot...

Where the f*** are they?

Back in the room, faster!

Let her through, she's the mother!

It's her son!

Move back.

What do you want?

You wanna screw me

over again?

I was just trying to help...
