Police, Adjective Page #4

Aurel lancu, Alex's father, arrived.

Following inquiries made at Criminal

Records, Public Records and Passports,

I discovered that

lulian, the girl's brother,

was convicted for driving

under the influence of alcohol,

and has made many

journeys out of the country.

The frequency of these,

every two months, to Italy, surprised me.

I believe lulian Paraschiv is

possibly the source of the drugs.

My checks

show that he is at present in Romania.

I propose to be investigated. "

Something between us

isn't working.

Why?

We used to eat together more often.

I can't remember

the last time we ate lunch together.

I can't get home at lunch. I'm after

some school kids, I must be there...

- when they finish school...

- I know.

How do you know?

Yesterday you left

your file on the coat rack.

I forgot to tell you because you

started on about the song.

You made a mistake. What mistake?

"Nici un" "not any" is only one word.

- Since when?

- Two years ago.

Why?

It's considered a negative

pronominal adjective.

Before there were two words

was considered a conjunction

and "un" an indefinite ar ticle.

You've lost me now...

Now it's written as one word,

trust me...

I'll write it that way, so.

From what I see from the file,

you aren't going to arrest them.

They're crazy.

- Are my pupils taking drugs?

- You know I don't like to talk about work.

Fine.

You should change that pullover.

- What's wrong with it?

- You've been wearing it for 4 days.

I'll change it.

Who was singing that song

last night? Angela Similea?

Mirabela Dauer.

- Are you obsessed with it?

- That's what I've been thinking all day.

I won't listen to it any more.

You can listen to it,

but with headphones.

I'm not going to.

I've heard it ten times.

Who decides stuff

like that about words?

The Romanian Academy.

And is the feminine form

- the same as the masculine form?

- Yes.

If I write or say

"o tigara" "a cigarette"?

A is an indefinite article.

- I gave you a cigarette.

- Yes.

"Nicio" "any" cigarettes is

that adjective you've mentioned.

A negative pronominal adjective.

You mean there are people

who analyze that kind of thing?

The Romanian Academy.

They're crazy...

Want some more?

It's very good.

Go on, help yourself.

I won't leave "any" "nicio".

Is that written as one word?

Will you lock it?

I left my keys in my jacket.

- Go back and get them.

- It's bad luck to go back.

- Your luck is bad anyway.

- Thanks a lot...

Morning.

- Morning.

- Morning.

- Has the Boss arrived?

- Take a seat.

Captain, the boys are here...

Yes.

- Do you have the file with you?

- Yes.

He has...

Very good.

- Give me the file, please.

- Why?

The Boss wants to read it,

then you go and discuss it.

- What about me?

- What about you?

- Will I go in?

- No, you're to wait here too.

He is angry because you

didn't come in the last few days.

Yes.

Now he'll give me a hard time too

because of you.

Gina, you work

even harder than us.

I'm not in the mood

for your sarcasm.

I wasn't being sarcastic,

I meant it.

How many pages

is that file of yours?

The boss is slow at reading.

- Maybe he can hear you.

- No he can't.

- Do you want a paper?

- What do you have?

Several. "The Thought",

"The Times", "The Daily". Here.

- Sure you don't want one?

- No.

I've read "The Thought",

I've read "The Times",

I've read "The Journal".

Let's see what

"The Truth" has to say...

Yes.

Right.

Go on in.

- Good day, Captain, Sir.

- Good day, Captain, Sir.

Sit down.

How long have you been

working on this?

How much longer

were you gonna spend on it?

I'd wait for Victor's brother and check

out the girl's brother in the meantime...

Did a sting operation

not occur to you?

- It did, but it's risky.

- Risky?

- What if he's not the source?

- Who's "he"?

- Victor's brother.

- Who do they come from, then?

- No clue. I'm trying to find it out.

- It's 8 days.

Where do you think they're from?

They could be from anywhere.

From the girl or

even the girl's brother.

- The one with the accident record?

- Yes.

You're being ridiculous.

Sir, something's not right here.

Why Alex din squealed?

"Denounced".

Criminals say "squealed".

Denounced...

Why did Alex denounce Victor

if they're friends,

- or why didn't he say the girl smoked too?

- What's so complicated?

Make a sting operation and

get the truth from their statements.

- It's still risky.

- Stop with the risks...

It's a risk, it's risky...

What's risky about such a simple case?

There's a chance Victor

won't squeal on his brother.

And where's the risk?

As you'd put it.

You have him for supplying.

- All this case only to get Victor?

- So what?

And the kid will do 7 years in jail

for ajoint?

- So we're destroying his life for nothing.

- Did you make him smoke?

No, but I don't think it's normal.

And you think it's normal

that he gives it to the others?

Sir, they're just crazy kids.

This crazy kid supplied

who will give it to other crazy kids.

And we just sit by?

- They're not that crazy.

- You used the word.

Are you sick? Don't you know

the meaning of the words you use?

I reckon he'll denounce his brother.

- What's it to you?

- I was just saying...

You can comment on your own case.

Okay, that's it. Tomorrow,

you'll make the sting operation.

- I won't do it.

- Excuse me?

I think there's no point

in risking... in rushing.

We wait for Victor's brother,

he'll be here in 2 weeks,

and we'll pick him up then.

- Have you forgotten the law?

- Of course not.

Does the word "supplying"

mean anything to you?

I still think it's better if we

charge the brother for supplying.

Listen Cristi,

have you ever harvested grapes?

Yes.

And where do you cut them?

Sorry?

Bring me that plastic fruit

from the desk.

Take a grape.

Where's it cut?

- From the stem.

- As a bunch, right?

- As a bunch.

- See?

You're telling me you'd cut

the bunch halfway down.

I think I see you mean.

It doesn't apply here.

It applies perfectly. Listen to me.

I have more experience with people.

I think it's enough

if we get his brother...

Make the sting operation.

You'll see I was right.

I won't do it. I don't want

to have that kid on my conscience.

If he keeps converting others

will your conscience be easy?

I don't know yet.

I think we're

talking different languages.

Tell me what "conscience"

means for you.

- Not to be sorry...

- Define the word "conscience".

That's what I'm trying to say.

It's something that would

make me feel bad.

Is that all?

In fact, it's something

that stops me from doing something bad.

So you don't know what it is.

I do know, but you're putting me

on the spot and...

Alright,

I'll let you off the spot.

Have a good think about it and

tell me what "conscience" is for you.

- Nelu, write it down.

- Sorry?

Write what Cristi says

on the board.

Ready?

Conscience is something...

within me...

that stops me

from doing something bad.
