Tell me to my face you're dumping me.

How can I dump you?

There's nothing between us.

- Was that what we had? Nothing?

- Don't make this any harder.

- You know what I do for a living.

- I don't care who or what you are.

How many women did you take to that

loft? You and your friends?

Wait. You know I'm not like that.

You know that.

You're a bad liar, Bart Venneker.

Here. I only need this

when I'm there with you.

Don't lose it. Just get in touch

if you want to see me.

Does your wife know

you share a loft with your friends?

- I don't share a loft with my friends.

- Did you know the girl?

Yes, I met her in Dsseldorf.

Did you know Mr Stevens

had struck up an affair with her?

I'd be surprised.

Do you get jealous when your friend

is picking up beautiful women?

- No, I'm not jealous of him.

- Not jealous of him.

I meant are you

jealous of those women.

What's that supposed to mean?

Where do you get the nerve

to insinuate that?

- Why so feisty, Mr Hartman?

- Matthias is my best friend.

Well, that best friend of yours

is giving everyone away.

He would never betray his friends.

You're full of crap, a**hole.

What did you call me?

You a**hole. First you accuse me...

I told her we were through

and then I left.

- That's it.

- That's it?

Well, you made your point.

When were you going to tell us?

Put that knife away, d*ckhead.

I don't know what happened next.

I've got nothing to do with this.

Maybe I wasn't the only one. Maybe

she was seeing one of you as well.

- Someone who is trying to frame us.

- Frame you, you mean. You hypocrite.

- It's your problem now.

- Can't you see what's going on?

Why meet an estate agent

to sell a loft that's not hers?

On the day she's found dead.

What a coincidence.

- Guys, we can't keep this quiet.

- And then what, Willem?

Are you dumping this mess on me?

Willem, are you nuts?

I'm here with someone.

Annette's gone.

What do you mean?

She found out about Dsseldorf.

That Anja told her what happened.

- Does Annette know about this loft?

- No, it happened in Dsseldorf.

Annette is gone. What do I do now?

She's my everything.

Calm down. You didn't confess,

did you? Never confess, Willem.

Don't hurt them unnecessarily.

They don't get that. Okay?

Help me.

You have to go talk to her.

Tell Annette I love her and

that Anja b*tch is lying, okay?

- She really listens to you.

- Okay, I'll see what I can do.

I love her so much.

Everything will be alright.

I'll take care of it, I promise.

I just hope that's all she knows.

Thank you.

Now do you see the kind

of mess this has got us in?

I'm sorry, man.

I never wanted this to happen.

So, what do we do now?

First we ditch the body

and then we cover our tracks.

- You can't just make her disappear.

- It's our only shot.

What a prince. You were lovers and

now you want to dump her body.

- What does that make you?

- You're one to talk.

How will you move her?

Chop her hand off?

Or do you have that key anyway?

No, and I thought handcuffs

were more your thing.

She is screwing me over.

Tom, calm down, okay?

- Give me the key, Tom.

- That filthy whore...

You want the key?

Here's your key.

Calm down, will you?

She's just a whore.

You know what it is with whores?

You can't rape them.

Isn't that right?

That's no way to treat a woman,

you a**hole. Any woman.

What's wrong with you? You're high

and you're beating up women.

Do you realize you're putting

all of us at risk? Do you?

Shut your mouth or I'll do it for

you. You're just like your father.

Bart had more luck

with his daddy, now didn't he?

Bart who's always saving everyone.

Where were you when we got beaten

and mum pretended not to hear?

Where were you then?

You didn't care about us. It was me

who had to protect our little sister.

- We didn't mean anything to you.

- I didn't know anything about that.

- If I had known...

- Then what?

I would have gotten you out of there.

Matt, empty your wallet.

- That is what she wanted, money.

- Shut your f***ing face.

I'll never forgive you

for what you made me do today.

Never.

- Why weren't we told? When was this?

- Two weeks ago.

We agreed to keep it between us.

Right, Tom? Between friends.

You have nothing

to teach me about friendship.

That's why I didn't say anything.

I thought you were involved.

I thought you were here yesterday,

stoned, riled up.

- F*** your excuses.

- You should cut down on the coke.

- Spoken like a true alcoholic.

- Enough already.

- You should hear yourselves.

- This is what they want.

They're trying to set us

against each other. Screw us over.

I'm afraid I have

a confession to make.

Can someone restrain Tom first?

Now we're even, dirt bag.

- Rob, what are you talking about?

- You wanted honesty.

I'm being honest. I'm putting

all my cards on the table.

Jesus, Rob.

You're f***ing kidding, right?

So you recorded everything

that went on here?

Every woman we brought here?

- Not always. Sometimes.

- Only when you liked the show?

- At least I don't cheat.

- No, you like to watch.

- You're sick, man.

- I'm not the one who raped a whore.

- I've got it all on tape.

- Remember we're in this together.

I want you to destroy

every one of those DVDs.

If you don't, I swear to God

I don't care how this turns out.

Wait, you've got a DVD from last

night. You know what happened here.

No, Matt. You didn't tell us

you were coming last night.

Against your own rules. And it's not

the first time you break them either.

Look who's scared now. Scared

I've got all his affairs on tape.

Don't worry, Matt. I'm your friend.

I'm your best friend.

My lips are sealed as usual.

I've always known you were a perv.

Getting off on your friends.

You don't know anything about me.

Did you see anything?

Anything that might help us?

Do you know what happened?

If all the people who got cheated on

or got hurt were to find each other...

what do you think would happen?

- What do you mean?

- What do you think?

- You okay?

- I don't feel like leaving tomorrow.

- Not looking forward to a vacation?

- I don't feel like going alone.

- The kids are coming with you.

- You know what I mean.

Why don't you join us?

Just come with us.

Okay, I'll work my ass off and

I'll join you as soon as I can.

I love you

and the rest doesn't matter.

What do you mean, the rest?

Everything that's not important.

All that is bullshit.

Champagne?

Gambling for Africa.

Look, if it's a fundraiser

mummy Concrete is invited.

What happened with that project?

I hear the permit's been approved.

I don't know. Looks like I'm not

allowed to play with the big boys.

But they haven't heard

the last of me.

Gentlemen, congratulations.

A wonderful initiative,

gambling for Africa.

- Ladies, good evening.

- This is Matthias Stevens.

He's the architect for the new

building next to the DSM site.

- Is that you? Wonderful building.

- Thank you, you're too kind.

Your husband and I talked about it
