Take them please.

Hello!

We need one more girl.

Get the car and wait for

me at the lobby.

We need to find Astri.

I don't care how difficult it is,

we have to find her.

Sh*t!

Ayi!

Astri here!

Ayi isn't home.

I heard her went out earlier.

Did she say where she was going?

She said that she's meeting

up with someone.

Some men came to fetch her.

They were really rough with her,

but she says she's okay.

What's happening?

- Who fetch her?

- It's me!

Get in.

- Assalamualaikum.

- Walaikum salam, Mom.

Yuda... child.

Please keep quiet. It's Yuda

and I can't really hear him.

- Mom... - Just a moment.

- Asked him how's the girls in Jakarta?

Just keep quiet and played your games.

- Who's that Mom?

- Your brother, as usual crapping away.

- How's everyone there, Mom?

- All of us are fine.

But that's not important,

how about you?

Have you found a job yet?

Yuda?

I'm doing fine, Mom.

I have started teaching silat

to some children.

I'm glad to hear that.

I know that you'll definitely overcome

all hurdles and reaps the benefits.

Johni... you're useless!

Release me!

Struggle again and I'll slapped you.

That's a good girl.

Hold her!

Hold her!

Someone hold this woman!

Let's just get her inside.

Who do you think you're?

Are you the boss now?

You needs me to iron your clothing too?

How about polishing your shoes?

Hold her!

- Mom, I've got to go. I'll call

you later. - Hold on...

If it isn't that hero again.

I was hoping to meet you again,

but that soon?

What's so special about him?

He has a handsome face,

for sure...

but is he as beautiful as

the prostitutes here?

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

I remember that you were

quite good earlier on,

but I have extra help now.

I will remember that number

when we next meet up.

Until we meet again...

hero!

Let's see what else is fun.

F***... they should be f***ing

wearing toe tag.

Move!

Sorry we are late!

See what happens when you

put all you efforts into something.

Money!

What's this?

Nice!

This... this is a discount.

Mister, I can explain this.

She was very difficult to come.

She was very hard.

I just want you...

so you cannot disappointed.

Well, she's here at least.

- She is here, she's yours.

- But don't...

mistakes my lack of disappointment

as a sign of content.

She's still damaged goods.

She's good!

Okay, do your thing.

F***... f***!

Who the f*** was that guy?

No one. No one f***ing knows.

Who was it?

What?

- F***ing take it!

- Come on, you should sit.

He came for the girl.

That's not what we are here for.

He came for the girl and you... you,

you brought the girl here.

I promise... I promise,

bring girl come back here.

Well, f*** ya! I know you will!

And you gotta find me the largest

f***ing knife in this city.

And that...

that's what gonna happened.

- Come on, we don't have time for this.

- Okay - This's what's going to happen.

Now go.

Take your men and go.

Adit!

Yuda!

What are we going to do now?

Don't worry. I know a place

where we can stay for the night.

- How long have you been...

- Taking care of him?

What happens to your parents?

They left us.

Leave you all behind?

My parents thought if they

have many children,

they will have many children who will

take care of them when they're old.

But they seemed to forget,

prior to that they have many

mouths to feed.

As the time passed,

the situation worsen.

And not all of us were fed.

And then one day,

before I awoke,

they left us.

They just left Adit and me behind.

They took along 2 sisters

and a brother together.

Until now I still don't know why or

how they chose none of us.

I really don't know how they

can do that to us.

But I work hard,

and I make sure that Adit

doesn't go hungry.

There isn't a single day that we

don't have a roof over our head,

and he never will.

He was fortunate to have

a sister like you.

I am the lucky one.

He is the reason I carry on.

If not I may still be at the club,

being sold like a piece of meat.

Yayan and me,

my brother...

been competing against one

another since small.

We always competed in whatever we do.

We usually are on the opposing side,

pretending to challenge each other.

Being the younger one,

I seldom win.

Yayan will always extend

the match as long possible.

He knew I would be disappointed

and angry, losing my patience.

Yayan always knew what he was doing.

His timing was such that

I exploded with anger

just when Dad arrived home.

He caused me to get into

a lot of trouble.

I believe now that he seldom

go against you.

As we grew older, I became

stronger and a harder opponent,

but he was also getting smarter.

That too was influenced

by a lot of factors.

I don't know whether he realized it,

but he became someone

that I looked up to.

I wish to be like him.

Why don't you just return home?

- It's not as simple as that.

- What's so difficult?

You can go back to your home town

and no one will look for you there.

No one knows exactly how

you look like.

The same goes for you too.

This is a big city.

Go to Sumatra and be a tomato picker?

Is it any better staying here

and be naked?

I am a dancer, alright!

There are differences between

naked and a dancer.

If those men just like to

watch me dance, it's okay.

And that's all they are getting.

I get paid and

was never ashamed of it.

I'm sorry,

I have the wrong impression.

I apologize!

This means we're getting along well.

It just meant I'm hungry.

I will leave you so that

you can sleep.

What is it?

Good night!

Good night!

You're losing sight of the

bigger picture here.

This is not the time nor the place

to start playing war.

We have to be careful.

When we were boys...

We will always made sure

we settled the score,

no matter how big or small, right?

Right? That's how we got

where we're today.

This isn't a point to prove, Ratger.

This is just f***ing bullshit

stopping us

from finishing what seems

to be simple work.

Dominic did this to you.

What did I do to him?

- That's not the same.

- F*** you!

Every scar is the same,

everything matters...

Now tell me, what did I do to him?

- We were just kid's back then.

- I settled the score.

And I will do the same thing now,

if it was your face bleeding like mine.

Look alright, all I'm saying is

that this is of no importance.

What's important is that we finished

our deal here and just go home.

It's okay, right?

This is not important, is it?

We stayed and we settled this.

Come here, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry!

Give you just give me that much.

Just... just give me that much.

What?

Johni brings men!

Strong help to finish Mr. Boss

problems.

And?

They here... they here.

Faster!

Don't f***ing sit!

Why are they here?

So you know... you know--

No, I don't know.

I want to do best and good.

Best and good?!

Why the f*** would I want to see them?

Is this an interview?

Do they have resume?

Now get them out on the street.

The only one's I want to see is the one
