The Aura
Wednesday
TWO JEWEL THIEVES CAUGH HOLD-UP THWARTED...
... to take me to my brother's house.
Are you listening to me?
All I need is for you
to tell me to...
Another one that's late.
What's your name,
what did you bring?
Oh, the foxes.
Wait over there at the side...
They thought they'd be able
to use lots of museum pieces,
but half of them are ruined.
I told them that,
but they didn't listen.
The Pole's going crazy.
- Hungarian.
- Eh?
- He's Hungarian, not Polish.
- Oh, Hungarian.
- So what did you bring?
- Some foxes.
You?
The pumas, the jaguars,
the casuarias...
Most of them came out of a diorama
I hardly brought anything new.
- Good business.
- You could say that.
Sontag!
The curators want you to have a look
at the dioramas on the third floor.
They need a report and an estimate.
Start with the rainforests.
- Now?
- Yes, now.
Don't smoke in here.
It doesn't bother her,
does it, darling?
Say "Ah".
- How's all that going?
- Fine.
The same...
- Do you still get the...
- Now and again.
- Remember that time?
- Yes.
OK. Let's go to Administration.
I've already had enough of this place.
Pay day.
How much do you think
they've got?
- Not this again.
- How much?
- I don't know.
- Have a guess.
I haven't got the slightest idea.
Two guys with two bags each.
Each bag on average...
holds 10 bundles of fifty
So?
Plus the same amount
that's inside already.
They bring it in the day before,
for security reasons.
Hard to believe they've got that much,
with the sh*t wages they pay.
- Waiting.
- Waiting for what?
For someone to do something.
Want me to tell you how?
You're going to tell me anyway.
Like when you told me how to rob
the Agricultural Convention.
See how he's got his back turned?
You could just walk right up to him.
He's not even looking.
Have you got a light?
Don't move.
- Now...
- Everybody on the floor!
It's all in the timing.
You mustn't waste a second.
Handcuffing them,
that takes...
Telephones, alarm. In the treasury,
no one's realized yet.
On the floor!
- How much time was that?
- 20 seconds.
It's the moment to close the door.
Just one way in.
Didn't you spot it?
- No.
- I did.
How much time?
They put away the cash.
They close everything up.
- One minute.
- Time's up.
How do they get out?
The old catwalks exit.
They've never blocked that up.
Easier to hide it. And nobody
would remember it was there.
Except me.
The catwalks lead directly
to the other wing of the building.
While the guards are getting
together in the main entrance...
Okay, they leave.
All very neat.
It can be done neatly.
It can be done well.
And if it's that easy, why aren't
people robbing them all the time?
People are robbing all the time,
but they do it badly.
Because they're idiots.
The police and the criminals,
all of them.
I still don't get
what's stopping you.
- It's a game.
- And you're the best player.
I pay attention.
I don't forget
Tell me the serial numbers
on the bags.
ABF 869,
HFD 444.
And what if something goes wrong?
What if someone dies?
There's no reason why
anyone should die.
Yes, there's a reason.
There's a load of guys with guns.
The typical situation
No, not if everything's
properly planned.
What the f*** are you talking about?
Who do you think you are?
Billy the Kid?
You've got a very weird fantasy
for a taxidermist...
who's never got into
a fight with anyone.
Not even once.
Not at school,
not in the street, not anywhere.
Anything you say may be
used against you.
Since you like action so much,
I've got a better game for you.
Tomorrow I'm going deer
hunting down south.
I was going with Aguirre
but the pansy got sick,
and I'm stuck with the tickets.
We'll rent you a rifle,
and have a good time.
- I don't like killing animals.
- You don't have to kill anything.
Just go for a stroll,
get the smell of formaldehyde
out of you, take a few pot-shots.
You should try it someday,
or wouldn't your wife let you?
- I'm going.
- Don't you want your money?
- Some other time.
- I'll call you about the trip.
- I'm not going.
- I'll call you anyway.
Mariana...
Yes, I'm going to go.
I gave it some thought
and I've made my mind up.
Nothing...
Nothing in particular...
I just thought...
a change of air would do me good.
Yes, hunting too, the whole deal.
Eh?
Her?
No, she agrees.
Yeah, she thinks it's a good idea.
She says what's good for me
is good for both of us.
What time do we leave?
What airline?
Okay.
I'll see you there.
Thursday
We can't stay here.
They haven't got any rooms.
It's all full up.
Sontag!
Listen, I don't want you
to go off angry.
The situation got out of control.
It's not just us.
I just called the other hotels.
They're all full up.
There's not a single free bed
in the whole valley.
And you didn't make
a reservation.
I've never needed a reservation.
But this is a special weekend.
The casino is closing next week...
and people are coming
from everywhere.
What the f*** do I care?
I came here to hunt.
- To f*** my mother.
Listen.
- Do you know Dietrich's cabins?
- Who?
Dietrich. He's a local.
Takes people hunting and stuff.
in the middle of the woods.
- I don't know him.
- Well, they're not really for tourists.
- Actually, his place is kind of...
...shitty.
Listen, I wouldn't recommend it
if you had any other options.
But if you've come to hunt,
maybe this will suit you better.
It's closer to the grounds.
What do you think?
Nothing.
How do I get there?
Hey.
Hey!
What do you want?
Somewhere to stay for 3 or 4 days.
No. We haven't got any room.
So where are all
In the sauna?
No room. What part of that
didn't you understand?
Yes, there is room.
My brother made a mistake.
There's one cabin available. Follow me.
Sign here please.
- Me too?
- No, one is enough.
- What's your name?
- Diana.
Is this your father?
No... that's my husband.
- Dietrich?
- Yes.
- This is a 14 point red stag, isn't it?
- I think so.
- Where is it?
- I don't know. Not here anyway.
The cabin is that one opposite.
If you want me to make you breakfast,
let me know.
Or any other meal.
It's no problem.
There are no other hunters.
- There's nobody.
- I thought that...
Don't listen to Julio.
My husband's in charge here.
And if he isn't here, it's me.
- Where is he?
- I don't know.
Hunting, I guess.
If you want him as a guide,
I can try to get him on his cell phone.
You can get a signal here?
The casino put up an antenna. It works
for the whole valley. Shall I call him?
No, we'll go on our own,
tomorrow first thing.
- To Junquillo?
