so to speak.
You don't find me attractive now?
Not particularly.
But you've wanted me
ever since we met...
...the whole year we dated,
and this is your chance.
-No, it's over.
-lt doesn't have to be.
Elizabeth.
l'm sorry.
lf it's over, then why not have one
last hurrah? The first and the last.
ls it bad or immoral?
Not now.
Moral absolutism's
a tricky proposition, isn't it?
Do you like that?
Yes.
You want to kiss me?
Yes.
Then, kiss me.
Hello? Let me in.
Guys, it's Benjamin. Let me in.
Can't be much of a threesome
with just the two of you.
All talk and no Benjamin.
You're playing with my emotions!
I said one thing and did another.
-I'm a hypocrite.
-But I forgive you.
Why? Why not blackmail me,
ruin my life ?
Because I wanted you more
than anything in the whole world.
-Wait. Wait.
-l can't.
l need you to tell me
that you love me.
l hope you can forgive me for this.
Not right now, please. l want more.
This means everything to me.
Oh, my God.
All l ever wanted was your love.
But as my brother.
-Now you--
-What?
Well, now you know why l never
let you sleep with me.
What?
Now you know why l did it.
And what--?
What were you just talking about?
Now you know why
Question:
lf your father and the woman he was
having an affair with had a daughter...
...what would her name be?
Answer:
Elizabeth.
What?
That's disgusting. l don't find
They killed my mother and our father...
...but they didn't kill me.
Stop it, you're f***ing
sick in the head.
You got everything and l got nothing.
lt's not fair.
l wanted you, but never like this.
Now l just want what
l think is rightfully mine.
-Half sister means half of everything.
-Elizabeth, shut up. Okay?
lt's f***ing psycho. lt's not funny.
lt's gonna be fun telling
the newspapers and the TV stations.
Everyone's gonna know
about you and your family.
who my family was.
When l found out, l had no choice
but to go in for the kill.
l'm really sorry your mom had to die,
but an eye for an eye.
And, now, we pretend here....
l swear she's f***ing psycho.
You're f***ing crazy, you know that?
To think, you, of all people, will
have their reputation destroyed.
-Tell me you're f***ing lying to me.
-l can't.
F***ing say it!
You're lying to me. Tell me!
Elizabeth?
-lt's the truth, Christian.
-No, it's not.
l should just kill you right now.
That would make an even
better story, if you killed me.
You can't get away
with this, Christian.
But, on the other hand, l could
keep my mouth shut and we could...
...live happily ever after.
We're the only ones
that need to know about this.
Just you and me.
Just you and me.
Just you and me.
Knock, knock.
People, you're supposed
to say, ''Who's there?''
Who's there?
Homo.
Christian, work with me.
You're supposed to say, ''Homo, who?''
What is it? Fag season?
-You go look.
-l'm in the shower.
You know, if Christian shot him, good.
-Well, what if she shot him?
-Even better.
-F*** them both.
-You're just a p*ssy.
Okay, l'm a p*ssy. Fine.
Get some wine while you take a look.
You know, generally, Pipes, you ask
for favors before you put out.
That was a warm-up, an hors d'oeuvre,
a snack, a nibble.
All right, l get the point.
But listen...
...don't you f*** anybody else
while l'm gone.
You'd better hurry.
-And Kate?
-Nothing to tell, she's a prostitute.
She wasn't a streetwalker.
She had a few select Eu--
Hey, Christian. Hello.
Jesus Christ.
Hey, buddy, she got you good, huh?
You might need some stitches...
...you f***ing idiot.
Oh, God.
Hi, Benji.
Jesus.
l know what you've been
wanting, you fruitcake.
Hey.
Jesus, did you hear that
gunshot a few minutes ago?
-l dropped the gun.
-All right, okay, great.
Did you take care of Elizabeth?
-You could say that.
-No, you could say that.
l'd hate for our scheme to fall
apart because the psycho got away.
-She's not going anywhere.
-All right.
Perfect, but--
Now, if you'll excuse me, l've got some
important business to take care of.
Oh, l got soap in my eyes.
Adam, baby, can you give me a towel?
ls that you?
Adam, l really need a towel.
l can't see a damn thing
and it really hurts.
Adam.
Sorry.
Christian, is that you?
ln the flesh.
-Where's Adam?
-l think it's called a ''f*** and run.''
Like all the others.
-What do you want?
-What do you think?
Why don't you reach out
and touch someone?
You're cold.
You know what they say,
''Warm heart, cold gun.''
-Why do you have a gun?
-l use it for killing people.
-Well, put it away.
-Aren't we bossy.
What's wrong? What do you need?
Huh?
-You, you're scaring me.
-l'm sorry.
You want me to take you out
for dinner and make up for it?
-Just hand me a towel, okay?
-Okay.
Hold your horses. Don't get
your panties in a bunch.
Think you're so great because you're
rich. You were lucky to have me.
And judging from your attitude, you'd
be lucky to get a little pleasure.
God knows this little choir boy
bullshit's gonna make you blow one day.
You'll never do better than me.
l mean, look at Elizabeth...
...you picked a real winner there.
F***ing perfect.
Kate.
-Stay there, Elizabeth.
-No, it's not me that's doing this.
-lt's Christian.
-Shut up!
l found Adam and Benjamin.
l saw the old notecards.
l know, and l'm sorry, but l'm not
the one that's doing this.
Would you sleep
with a relative, Elizabeth?
So now you're just
gonna kill all of us?
No.
-Elizabeth!
-No, Kate, stop it. No!
Do you want to break,
honey, or should l?
l'll do it.
How's your steak?
Delicious.
And the polenta?
lt's good.
And the wine.
lt's Lafitte Rothschild, 1 954.
The year that our father was born.
-The wine's perfect.
-lt's your favorite, isn't it?
Yes.
-To my incestuous sister.
-Don't say that.
Oh, God, it's delightful.
Have another sip.
Savor a wine like this, because you
never know when you're gonna have it.
Do you remember last year
when you said that...
...l believed in principles,
but l didn't have them?
-Yes.
-Well, do you still think that?
-Why?
-Because...
...l want to do the right thing.
l would hate to think that our family
has lost what we most cherish:
-Virtue, honesty and justice.
-Then do the right thing.
-Well, what would that be, exactly?
-Giving me half of everything you have.
l would, but you're illegitimate...
...and you know how
l feel about such things.
Then marry me.
Both of us are guilty, Christian.
Yes, we are.
We are both guilty.
Guilty as charged.
To both of us.
Cheers.
lt's agreed...
...we're both guilty.
And the guilty must pay.
We don't have to.
That would make me a hypocrite.
You are a hypocrite, Christian.
No, l'm not!
l'm a man of my word.
You poisoned me?
How could you kill me?
l thought you'd be honored.
Being murdered is one of our family's
