Nitro Page #2

Well, you see,

nobody else wants to bet.

What?

By the way,

I'm Fanfreluche.

I'll bet 5 on the next race.

Let's go!

Sorry, I'm not sure I can get 5.

Sh*t!

What is this? Nobody wants to bet?

Why'd you buy those cars?

Is this a fashion show or a duel?

Are you pilots or wimps?

Next race, 5 grand. 5 thou!

I'll give $10 grand to anyone

who beats me. Any takers?

-Yo!

-What?

Haven't you had enough?

Lay off. Tired of me already?

Get me a can of nitro.

Not now!

O.K., hand over the cash.

Max! That's your name, isn't it?

Who asked you? Gimme the cash.

Just a minute.

She's not the boss here.

That money belongs to us.

I won that money,

go screw yourself!

Don't you feel lonely in your film?

Who do you think you are, Mad Max?

Come on, he hasn't got a chance.

Exactly, so beat it

before we get angry.

Anyone else? Who's next?

Gimme my cash!

My cash!

Give him his money!

Here it is.

You're sick!

You O.K., Max?

Julien, Dad. My name's Julien.

You named me that, remember?

Yeah, it's true.

I just can't get used to it.

Anyway, your mom chose that name,

not me.

You won, huh?

You get what you want?

Not quite.

How much you missing?

How much?

I've sold everything.

I can't even pay the rent.

I have to find a solution.

I got no choice, I need the money.

You and Theo can stay here.

Nothing would make me happier.

I won't let her die, Dad.

I know you understand.

O.K., I'll lend you the 10 grand.

I can't. I don't know

how I can repay you.

Forget it!

Anyway, it'll all come to you.

How much do you need in all?

What stunt

you gonna pull now, Max?

Julien, Dad.

You've pulled

your share of stunts lately too.

Jeez, Max!

I can't lose her.

I don't want Theo to lose her.

We're not at the wheel.

It's not for us to decide.

Nobody decides for us, Dad.

Alice doesn't deserve to die.

Your mom didn't deserve

to die either.

But that's life.

Life's goddamn unfair.

Haven't you noticed?

Christ, boy!

Don't do anything crazy. Wait.

For what? For her to die?

Julien!

Do I know you?

No.

I'm Alice.

Glad to see you open your eyes.

I've been watching you sleep here

for a week.

My heart's weak.

I figured that

if you died, maybe I'd die too.

Dumb to be so superstitious.

But...

I'm not superstitious.

It's unlucky.

You're funny!

Come in!

So, what's new?

I usually ask you that.

Sorry, still no heart.

What about you?

Here.

It's all there.

-It'll be legit?

-Don't worry, I'll take care of it.

Be careful,

I don't want to be fingered.

I have more at stake.

It's a private club.

We're closing. Scram.

I wanna see the boss.

The lawyer.

After you.

Who're you? Have we met?

In another life, maybe.

Hold on, I never forget a face.

Mad Max.

Some babe.

You know her well.

She's not bad.

Me, I think she's a firecracker!

She's not a firecracker

she's a bombshell.

I like bombshells.

Maybe I'll blast her.

Don't you get it?

-Is there a problem?

-We're cool.

Guy just doesn't know who I am.

-Yeah, who?

-The lawyer here. So watch out!

C'mere, you punk!

Stop, I get...

-Teach bigshot a lesson!

-I get it!

-Show him!

-Stop, I understand!

Look at me, you punk!

Stop, I'm sorry!

If you busted my nose, I'll ice you.

Listen up.

In life, big fish eat little fish.

Understand?

Don't ever let me see

your ugly face again.

I never forget a face.

I get it!

You got guts.

No, listen.

This is business, nothing personal.

What you want?

Blow, crack, ecstasy?

Crystal? Everybody's into that now.

A heart.

Pardon?

I want a heart.

You working for someone?

I need it fast. Today or tomorrow.

I'm in a rush.

-Want some water?

-No.

Water is life, man.

Did you know that?

Whoever controls water,

controls life.

Water's health.

It's important to stay healthy.

Gimme 48 hours and 1 50 grand.

-1 00 grand.

-125.

-100.

-1 10, it's a steal.

Besides, it's enough.

Who says you're not a stool?

No one.

O.K., 100 it is.

You've got balls. Good.

-Pay up tomorrow.

-Hold on!

Who guarantees it's done by a pro?

We're all pro's. Nobody's

ever complained about our service.

I mean, for the operation.

We always use the same guy.

You'll have a lovely new heart.

Just tell me the victim's blood

type...

I mean, the patient's...

Leave the rest to us.

-The blood type?

-Don't you know it?

We absolutely need the blood type.

What a f***in' loser!

Wait, it'll come to me.

Not everybody knows theirs.

These days it's safer.

Cause of transfusions.

Do you know your blood type?

Do you?

I'm O neg.

I'm the rarest, AB positive.

I'm B pos.

A pos.

Anybody moves, I'll shoot'em.

You sit still, this is fatal.

O.K., come with me.

I'm staying put, O.K., man?

Come or I'll shoot him.

One! Two!

It's O.K., Gino. Go with him.

Get over there!

Anybody moves, I'll shoot.

Get up! On your feet, I said.

Anybody moves, I'll shoot'em!

What the f***?

Get going!

Stay there!

In the front.

Leave Gino here!

What now, boss?

Stay calm. Got his license plate?

We'll find him.

Clear everyone out.

-Name?

-Gino.

-Where's the doc?

-Who?

The doc who does your operations.

-I don't know.

-You're expendable, man!

-What's the address?

-6000 Frenette.

Don't jerk me around!

VETERINARY HOSPITAL

Mr N'Diaye, there's smoke

coming from your veterinary clinic.

I'm fire chief Tremblay.

You better get over here.

Fine, we'll be waiting.

The good news is,

there's no fire, right?

"Stay calm, no matter what,"

I always say.

Do we agree?

I don't want trouble either.

Good.

This way.

You're sure you can do this?

No problem, really.

I was a surgeon in my country.

They told me Canada

needed specialists.

But you don't recognize

our degrees.

So I became a veterinarian.

But I work under the table

to pay my taxes

and my student loan.

Alright.

What do you need?

His heart.

ECG 719.

I don't care, I need it now!

Understand?

Thank you. Bye.

F***in' cop won't work

on the weekend!

Goddamn bureaucrat!

To think he's paid with our taxes!

You're gonna save a life.

F*** you! Why're you doing this?

You can repay your debt

to society.

-I'm innocent.

-Sure.

You're a bunch of choir boys!

I'm innocent.

I don't even know you!

-Can't you give him a shot?

-Why me?

Don't kill me. I never hurt you.

Or anyone!

You don't deserve a heart.

For once there'll be justice.

Wait!

You're making a big mistake.

A huge mistake.

I'm not a criminal.

-What, you're a businessman?

-I'm a cop.

Sure, and I'm with Candid Camera.

You're lying!

I swear, man!

My name's Steve Santini!

-You don't deserve to live.

-I swear!

Not one second!

Hurry up, give him his shot!

Have pity, man! My wife!

I have a wife, a baby!

You killed and raped

to be part of that gang of scum.

So shut up!

I never killed anyone, man!

Never!

And the H you sell to kids?

And the 13-year-olds who turn

$10 tricks to buy crack!

-Come on, give him the shot!

-Done.

Do something, save me!

Our hell's angel prays to God!

It's almost funny.

What now, boss?

We wait.
