Schneider vs. Bax Page #3

What?

You heard me.

It's very stupid, I know.

What text message?

"He's near the water tower."

Jesus, you're an idiot.

- You'll have to get him. I'll pay double.

- Double?

Triple! Schneider's become very

dangerous now!

Triple. Yes or no?

Yes.

Daddy!

Help!

Francisca needs help. Go get her.

There's no danger. She stays here.

- I don't want to stay here.

- One moment, sweetie.

- I have to go into the swamp at my age?

- It's an emergency.

- Why don't you do it? You're her father.

- Quiet, girl.

What's happening exactly?

- You're sending me into the swamp?

- Yes.

Damn it, get up!

A bit of speed?

I want speed too.

- Is that speed?

- Yes, that's speed.

You'll enter the reeds here.

You'll see a ditch.

On the other side, there are more reeds.

Behind them is the swamp.

- Can I get my mobile back?

- No. Have you got the car keys?

Car keys.

And keep your hands to yourself.

Don't touch her.

If you touch her, I'll kill you.

There's a girl in the bedroom.

Who is it?

No idea.

I thought you only came to get

your own things.

Are you Jules?

- Yes.

- You can kill me with one thumb?

Yes or no?

Yes.

Francisca!

It's grandpa!

I'm coming to get you.

You're so beautiful when you

look sad.

What are you doing here?

I'm coming to get you.

Your father wants you to come home.

I'm staying here.

Do you want me to console you

a bit?

I don't need to be consoled.

Aren't you depressed?

I'll just caress your knee.

There's no harm in that, is there?

Don't.

- You're staying here.

- What did you take?

You look insane.

- You're staying here.

- Damn it!

Are you retarded?

Jules needs to go to hospital.

Where's grandad? What happened?

Did that bastard touch you?

- Where is he?

- Why did you send grandad after me?

Did you want to punish me or

something?

I wasn't thinking. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry? I stabbed him.

- Dead or wounded?

- Dead.

It's alright.

- Where did you put him?

- In the swamp.

It's alright, sweetheart.

Grandad's an a**hole.

Listen did you hide him well?

Where it's very deep?

Calm down.

I can't calm down, daddy!

How can I continue to live?

I'm going to give you something.

Here.

- What is it?

- It's innocent stuff, really.

Now lay down.

I can't lay down. I have to sit.

Sit and stay calm then.

I have to go somewhere.

I'll be right back.

You have to leave.

- Where's Gerard?

- He'll come later.

- I have to wait for Gerard.

- Be quiet.

Who are you?

I'm Francisca.

If you're Francisca, where's

Gerard?

He drowned in the swamp.

So what? Are you going to cry now?

Why do you need a gun?

- There's a man who wants to liquidate me.

- Why?

No idea.

You have no idea,

but you do have a gun?

Tell me what's going on.

It can't be that hard, can it?

You have to leave.

You can't do anything for me.

- Do you think I can't handle this?

- I don't think anything. Just leave.

- I'm staying here.

- Take grandad's car and go.

I'm not leaving.

Daddy, I can help, really.

He won't hurt me. I'll read

a book outside. Do you understand?

That way, he'll have to go to the other

side, where you will be.

You have no idea. Do you think I'll let

my daughter be shot dead?

- I don't feel well.

- Are you surprised?

With all the junk you're taking.

- I need some speed. It takes it away.

- Takes what away?

I have to become strong and smart again.

Schneider's also smart.

Schneider? Is that his name?

Yes, that's his name.

According to Mertens.

Who's Mertens?

The man from the deep south who

rides a billy goat at night.

- Do you have speed?

- Yes, I do.

Please take some then.

Jesus, what is all this?

This must be it.

Are you sure?

Yes.

Here. And eat something.

No bread.

I only eat crackers.

There are no crackers.

- Did you look in the kitchen cupboard?

- Yes.

Don't get up.

There are no crackers.

You don't know where to look.

No crackers.

The number you're trying to reach

may be turned off. Please try again later.

You're not allowed to be here,

Madam.

- Why not?

- This is a restricted area. If you...

Damn!

Can I go home?

It's here.

Go left at the container.

Give me your foot.

- What?

- Give me your foot.

- Why?

- Give me your foot, I said.

- What is this?

- An explosive, so you don't run away.

I'm giving you ten minutes and if you're

not back by then...

- ...I'll press the button.

- Are you serious?

- You bet.

- Are you crazy? I'll come back.

I'm not taking any risk. I won't be

betrayed by a whore from Culemborg.

- What happens if you press the button?

- You'll lose your leg.

Come on, get out!

What if I'm late and it's not

my fault?

Tough luck for you.

Get out!

And don't forget you don't

know me.

You've gone for a walk and you're

thirsty.

All you have to do is make sure she

leaves, understood?

Otherwise she's dead.

Your time starts now.

Could I get a glass of water?

Of course. I'll get it.

Where are you?

Under the bed.

- What's going on, daddy?

- It'll go away. What did she want?

A glass of water.

You're in danger.

- What did you say?

- You're in danger. You have to leave.

- Who are you?

- You have to go.

- I'm not in the mood for this.

- If you stay, you'll die.

Is this a joke?

It's a message.

From whom?

- Schneider sent you.

- You have to leave or you'll die.

Thanks for the water.

Do you think I'm an idiot?

Why is all this necessary?

Can't this Schneider just go home?

- I have to go.

- What did my father do?

- I don't know.

- Please, can't we talk about it?

I only have one thing to say:

you're in danger. Go away.

- I can't abandon my father.

- I've said it. Now I have to go.

Will Schneider come and save you

if I take you hostage?

I don't know any Schneider.

Damn it, Schneider

won't come and save me.

Look at my ankle.

What is that?

I have two minutes left.

Then he'll blow me up.

It's not going well at all, daddy.

Come.

I've tried my best.

- She's not going.

- No.

Can that thing go?

Here, sugar water.

Drink it.

Eat it.

Eat.

- Eat it.

- Can you calm down?

Calm down?

We're in a hurry, daddy.

Eat!

I don't know if you remember, but

there was a woman here. Remember?

- Yes.

- Yes?

She'd been sent by Schneider and

she had to convince me to leave.

I stayed as you can see.

- I can't keep that down.

- Do you understand what I'm saying?

Yes.

Why does Schneider want you dead?

Daddy, if you don't answer me,

I'm leaving.

- It's not interesting.

- Bullshit, answer me!

It's a trap.

I have to liquidate him.

Mertens was supposed to send Schneider

to me, but something went wrong.

Now he knows I'm expecting him.

You're a hitman?

You kill people for money?

I need alcohol.

Let's drink alcohol together,

so we'll have fun at least.

Fun? You have to become clear-headed

and take control.

Damn it, don't you understand

the situation we're in?

- What are you going to do?

- Puke.

Do you feel better?

In the boat.

Sit down!

Listen, you're less than

a pile of sh*t to me.

But I'll give you a chance.
