Move back!

I said, move back!

- Don't shoot.

- Move back, move back.

Don't f***ing shoot!

- What are you doing?

- You're gonna shoot me?

What I'm doing?

What about you?

Whose side are you on?

- Who are you with?

- Shut up!

Let him go!

We want information!

I said, get the

f*** outta here!

You, motherf***er!

Let go.

Sir!

My son, Jean-Claude...

- What's going on?

- Is Jean-Claude dead or...

Answer me, damn it!

He's my son!

Make her stop crying!

I said, let go!

What?

Go ahead, shoot!

You too, get lost!

Back to our correspondent

in Los Angeles

where it seems Van Damme's

attorney has a statement to make.

We represented Mr. Van Damme

for over fifteen years,

which is a lot of time, a lot of

business, a lot of friendship, so...

It is with the

greatest regret that

I had to prepare the

statement with my colleagues

"Because of Mr. Van Damme's behavior

and for ethical purposes,

my firm and myself hereby,

immediately cease to represent

Jean Claude Van Damme."

Go, over there!

Bang!

Like in movies.

What the hell are you doing?

Whose side are you on, you dork?

That moron soften you up?

Oh yeah, I'm the dork?

Yeah, a 32-year-old

who still watches karate films?

And who gets softened up

like a beginner!

- A beginner?

- Yeah!

Robbing a post office at my age,

that's a youth mistake! But at 52...

Yeah, right! 52 years old!

You owe me some respect.

I could be your father!

My father?

Because of your age?

No, because I f***ed

your mother!

Sure!

Are you happy now?

Did you ever go to school?

You'd know that

stone falls on egg,

breaks egg

and egg which...

an egg which falls...

Because we can't...

You can't save...

the world.

What?

We said, "Not the mothers!"

I don't wanna die.

I don't wanna die.

I don't wanna die.

It's over, it's over.

Don't worry, Jean-Claude.

Aren't we better

off without him?

- He shot him in the head.

- Put Jean-Claude on.

Jean-Claude?

I wanted to ask you...

Could you sign me

an autograph?

For Arthur.

Promise?

Thanks.

The cops.

- No!

- Yes...

Arthur?

Don't shoot!

Police!

Police! Don't move!

I'm a hostage!

I'm a hostage!

I need a doctor, now!

- Drop the gun!

- Get lost!

Get out or I'll smoke him!

- Drop the gun!

- Let him go.

Get outta here or

I'll smoke him!

It's not him!

It's not Jean-Claude!

- Get outta here!

- Drop the gun!

I'm gonna smoke him!

Get outta here!

I didn't do anything!

What the hell is

going on here?

You're a criminal!

Extortion of 465,000 dollars

from the Belgian State.

- Extortion?

- What extortion?

There's no extortion!

You're an a**hole.

A few months later

During the trial,

Van Damme seemed quite serene

and wishes to remain silent...

Here he comes.

Mr Van Damme, a statement?

Do you agree

with the court's verdict?

The results are in.

Jean-Claude Van Damme has been convicted

for 3 years. One year jail time

two years probation...

Jean-Claude Van Damme,

as mentioned earlier,

will serve 1 year

for extortion of funds.

He should serve his sentence

in a prison in Brussels' suburbs.

And this ends

the thrilling judicial series.

We just heard

of the incredible escape...

If the knee is lower than the foot,

like this...

You won't have any strength.

Lower, which is bad...

I'm gonna kick like this,

with no power. Check...

Knee too low...

If I put my knee high,

I can even kick higher. Go higher.

Then I go... Bam!

- It's something moving.

- Van Damme...

Harder!

And what if somebody come at me

with a knife?

- Van Damme, visit...

- A knife?

Then I keep my distance,

and my knee high...

You have a knife,

I go inside you

or I can go above

you. Do you understand?

Van Damme!

Visiting room!

I'm coming.

I'm coming.

It's my mother.

See you, guys.

Thank you.

How are you, Mom?

Aren't you cold?

No, no. I just gave the

guys a karate lesson...

- You teach karate?

- Yeah, keeps me busy.

That's nice.

Your father asked

how you were doing and

wanted to tell you stuff...

Is he OK?

I'll be right back.

I have a surprise.

- Excuse me?

- I have a surprise for you.

- I've had plenty of surprises.

- Wait a sec.

We don't have much time.
