I have to get to work!

Scoundrel!

I'm taking an advance for next month,

old timer.

-Is your money already spent?

-What do you think?

-Thanks, old timer.

-Yeah.

-Hi Mom.

-Bye son.

What are you laughing at?

Come on.

Thanks dad!

Okay

...Gerrit Witkamp together with his wife...

...she, with her splendid villa blahblahblah...

...Guys?

Is the sound alright?

It's okay..

Fine with me.

Good, let's get started!

So guys, as soon as he steps out the door,

let's show a little enthousiasm, right?

4... 3... 2... 1

Let's go!

# Here's Gerrit Witkamp,

the national dirt bike champion... #

# ...with his wife Hilde,

cheered on by his adoring fans! #

Camera two, zoom in!

Witkamp, Witkamp!

-Good morning Gerrit, hello Hilde...

-Hello Frans.

Hi

We're told you're actually a dentist, is this

true or just a rumor spread by your sponsor?

It's true,

I graduated at Utrecht.

But you haven't practiced much lately,

have you?

You don't lose a skill like that though,

shall I demonstrate?

This should be good guys,

a demonstration by a dentist...

...who's about to become the dirt bike

world champion. Do we have a volunteer?

Eef! How about Eef,

his teeth are already f***ed up!

Nothing wrong with my teeth.

Open your mouth...

Open!

There's a hole in one of the molars.

Drop by sometime, I'll treat you for free.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to

introduce you to some of Gerrit's fans...

First of all,

who do we have here?

Eef De Wit, car mechanic.

I'm nineteen.

And you?

Rien,

I'm twenty and a carpenter.

Right, and you?

I'm Hans,

also twenty and also a carpenter...

(Surinam accent) And what are we sure about?

Gerrit will be the champion!

Witkamp, Witkamp!!

Hey, how do you like the enthusiasm of your fans?

Wonderful. I would love to be the champion,

just to please my fans.

You heard it!

Gerrit promises to be the champion!

Now I'm asking you, what do you think

will make Gerrit the world champion?

He's got the best gear, all of it Japanese!

It's just great stuff!

It's not about the gear,

it's about the man driving it.

That's what I like to hear

It's all about the human factor in sport.

That's right! I drive a piece of junk myself,

but I'll win tomorrow for sure!

Ah, you're a dirt bike racer yourself?

Yes, I'm only an amateur

but that will change soon.

He's won a few times already.

You heard it Gerrit,

the competition is coming for you...

Do you know about this boy?

Sure, his name is Rien Hartman.

Yes! Is he talented?

-He?

-Yes...

He's extremely talented,

he might be one of the greats!

What about me? I'm a biker too!

-...Hey Gerrit, I wanted to ask you a question...

...I believe that champions

can help advance the sport...

Look, the sport has to appeal to a wider audience...

-Yes...

-Yes, talent will emerge eventually...

Hey Gerrit, thanks for the interview...

Ok guys, it's a wrap. Let's go.

Hey baby

Hi!

You're up early today?

I have to work on my bike.

I need some floor cover.

Behind you.

-Will I see you tonight?

-For sure.

My parents are going camping in their caravan.

We've got the place to ourselves...

-I'm going to the counter...

-Yes, I'm coming.

Will that be all?

Some chewing gum.

Allright, that will be 24,50.

Here's 25,

keep the change, honey.

You're so sweet.

My my, aren't you clever.

-Forgot about those, had you?

-They're from home.

-With our pricetags on them?

-Yes.

They're paid for.

Yes, allright!

Hey guys!

Watch out now,

little Hans.

My balls...

Here, catch this.

...All of it nicked from my old man...

and from Maya, she never notices anything...

(Voice on radio) # Glad you're

listening, here's Blondie! #

# From the album 'Parallel Lines,'

here's 'One Way or Another!' #

Hi.

Hello.

I need some juice...

Shall I put it in there?

Fill her up?

That's what I came here for.

Is there anything else I can help you with?

A receipt, please...

Ooh, a receipt...

A receipt...

Hey fellas!

...check this out...

Bastard! You bastard!

Two peas on a board!

I think even mine are bigger!

Next time, bring your older sister!

Dirty f*ggot!

Girls...

Next one.

Don't use that one!

There's still dirt on it!

There's just a little grease on it...

Gerrit wouldn't use that either!

You should see his mechanic.

He's just a dirty gook.

But he could assemble a bike

with his eyes closed!

I can do that

Yeah, right.

Wanna bet?

Sure.

25 bucks, allright?

Go ahead.

(He names the engine parts)

Ah, delicious Heineken!

That will be 25 bucks.

Hey Rien, check out this hot chick!

She's a dirty black!

Yeah, but they f*** better...

-Right, love?

-Huh?

Oh nothing...

Wanna dance?

With you?

As if I don't have anything better to do.

He's such an a**hole.

-Would you like something to drink?

-Yes.

-Chocolate milk?

-I'll have a beer.

Rien! This chick is easy!

-Chicks like her just can't get enough of it.

-Me neither...

He's at it again..

-Your skin is very soft...

-Don't do that!

-Why not?

-I don't like that.

Sure you do.

Jesus!

(Deejay) # This evening's disco-dance contest is

about to start and today we are celebrating...

Guess you couldn't cut the mustard?

Did you get a smelly finger, little Hans?

-Here, smell it.

-Did you get it on?

-Why don't you go dancing? Your big chance!

-Yeah, go on and take the floor!

-Go dance... Maybe you'll win a album...

-Let go of me!

-Disco, disco.

-Oh lovely... lovely...

(Dee-Jay) # Wow, here's our very own

dutch John Travolta! Fantastic! #

# But wait, that's the Black Pearl,

the competition! #

# You won't be able to beat him boy... #

# He's this evening's prize winner! #

# Wow! Here is Iggy Pop pop pop pop! #

-Why don't you sing along?

-Jesus saves! Jesus saves! saves saves...

-You sound like a broken record player!

(Man on background) Hey, hands off!

Let go of me! I didn't do anything!

(Girl) Hey! I got to get in yet! -Come on then!

Hey, come on! -Hey, watch it! -Ow!

-Jesus, Truus!

-I tied his shoestrings together!

-I should have f***ed him as well.

Ok guys, end of the ride, let's go.

-I don't want to go home yet...

-Already...?

Ok guys, I'm out of here. My parents

are away, I have the place to myself...

Eat her out!

Well, he's set for the evening...

I wish my parents had a trailer.

The church wouldn't allow it.

So you can end up behind the bar?

No way. I'll see you tomorrow.
