I just want to talk...

921

01:
11:18,541 -- 01:11:19,374

Enough!

922

01:
11:21,375 -- 01:11:22,749

Stop it!

923

01:
11:22,916 -- 01:11:25,790

- Don't touch her.

- Get out!

924

01:
11:27,125 -- 01:11:28,249

Enough!

925

01:
11:28,416 -- 01:11:30,457

I just want to talk to her!

926

01:
11:31,333 -- 01:11:32,915

Why are you lying, b*tch?

927

01:
11:34,000 -- 01:11:35,374

This is not true!

928

01:
11:36,916 -- 01:11:39,582

- Go to hell!

- I want to talk to her!

929

01:
11:41,166 -- 01:11:42,499

Enough.

930

01:
11:44,250 -- 01:11:45,540

F***!

931

01:
11:47,416 -- 01:11:48,665

Stop, Johan!

932

01:
11:49,666 -- 01:11:51,082

Enough!

933

01:
11:51,833 -- 01:11:52,582

Stop.

934

01:
11:53,625 -- 01:11:54,915

Get off me!

935

01:
11:55,083 -- 01:11:56,290

Leave him alone!

936

01:
11:58,833 -- 01:12:01,165

- Get up and go home.

- Get out!

937

01:
12:01,541 -- 01:12:02,624

Go home.

938

01:
12:03,708 -- 01:12:05,165

Bunch of bastards!

939

01:
12:05,625 -- 01:12:07,332

Come.

940

01:
12:10,666 -- 01:12:12,249

Bunch of f***ing bastards!

941

01:
12:28,583 -- 01:12:31,374

I'm glad to see you.

Come and get warm.

942

01:
12:31,625 -- 01:12:34,665

Damn, you're exhausted.

943

01:
12:41,000 -- 01:12:42,832

Someone hit you?

944

01:
12:43,666 -- 01:12:44,290

No.

945

01:
12:44,458 -- 01:12:46,290

Holy sh*t!

946

01:
12:51,083 -- 01:12:53,290

Stop that noise, girls!

947

01:
12:54,708 -- 01:12:57,499

We have relatives this weekend.

948

01:
13:02,333 -- 01:13:03,665

My two sisters.

949

01:
13:04,000 -- 01:13:06,707

You met them when you

were little.

950

01:
13:06,916 -- 01:13:08,249

It's been a while.

951

01:
13:08,750 -- 01:13:09,457

Okay?

952

01:
13:09,625 -- 01:13:10,707

Fine.

953

01:
13:11,083 -- 01:13:13,457

Tic and Tac, I called them.

They crack nuts.

954

01:
13:13,625 -- 01:13:16,332

My father is trying

to help your father.

955

01:
13:21,166 -- 01:13:23,207

Here's Marcus. Luca's son.

956

01:
13:23,416 -- 01:13:25,124

My brothers-in-law.

957

01:
13:25,291 -- 01:13:26,332

Elias

958

01:
13:27,000 -- 01:13:27,832

and Erik.

959

01:
13:28,958 -- 01:13:31,332

I'm Erik, this is Elias.

960

01:
13:31,708 -- 01:13:34,165

Sit.

Give him something to drink.

961

01:
13:34,416 -- 01:13:36,017

You thirsty?

Not wine, though, all right?

962

01:
13:40,541 -- 01:13:41,749

Water, okay?

963

01:
13:42,625 -- 01:13:43,499

Thank you.

964

01:
13:45,666 -- 01:13:46,957

Marcus, I talked to your mother.

965

01:
13:47,125 -- 01:13:48,790

Don't forget to call home.

966

01:
13:49,291 -- 01:13:50,457

Okay?

967

01:
13:54,750 -- 01:13:56,457

You know what happened to Dad?

968

01:
14:02,500 -- 01:14:04,082

What does your old man say?

969

01:
14:05,083 -- 01:14:08,832

He said Lucas will be arraigned

970

01:
14:09,541 -- 01:14:11,290

at a preliminary hearing tomorrow.

971

01:
14:12,083 -- 01:14:13,707

At 8:
30.

972

01:
14:14,125 -- 01:14:15,874

There are two options.

973

01:
14:16,583 -- 01:14:19,832

Either the judge confirms

preventive detention,

974

01:
14:21,083 -- 01:14:25,332

or see no reason to hold him.

975

01:
14:30,125 -- 01:14:31,832

What do you think will happen?

976

01:
14:35,500 -- 01:14:36,457

I don't know.

977

01:
14:38,208 -- 01:14:39,249

But...

978

01:
14:41,250 -- 01:14:43,130

apparently all the children

say the same things.

979

01:
14:44,291 -- 01:14:47,582

They describe his basement,

980

01:
14:48,333 -- 01:14:51,540

the wallpaper

and the color of the sofa.

981

01:
14:52,625 -- 01:14:55,915

But when the police

searched the house this morning...

982

01:
14:57,541 -- 01:14:59,374

What did they find, Marcus?

983

01:
15:04,833 -- 01:15:06,207

That we have no basement.

984

01:
15:07,166 -- 01:15:07,790

Exactly.

985

01:
15:09,416 -- 01:15:12,582

- What does that mean?

- They have no bloody basement.

986

01:
15:12,750 -- 01:15:14,124

What does it mean for Lucas?

987

01:
15:14,291 -- 01:15:16,040

That there is still hope.

988

01:
15:16,500 -- 01:15:18,415

What's going on?

989

01:
15:18,750 -- 01:15:21,790

Children often invent

990

01:
15:21,958 -- 01:15:24,624

details that do not exist.

991

01:
15:25,958 -- 01:15:28,749

I do not know if it is

their imagination

992

01:
15:28,916 -- 01:15:31,624

or if they repeat what they hear

993

01:
15:31,791 -- 01:15:33,152

from their peers or their parents.

994

01:
15:33,291 -- 01:15:36,957

It is always assumed

that children tell the truth.

995

01:
15:38,666 -- 01:15:40,915

Unfortunately, they often lie.

996

01:
15:44,333 -- 01:15:45,165

And now what?

997

01:
15:46,166 -- 01:15:47,457

Now?

998

01:
15:48,375 -- 01:15:49,540

We'll wait and see.

999

01:
15:50,541 -- 01:15:52,124

They'll call us tomorrow morning.

1000

01:
17:05,625 -- 01:17:06,874

Marcus... Marcus?

Hi.

1001

01:
17:10,916 -- 01:17:11,999

Did you sleep well?

1002

01:
17:14,291 -- 01:17:16,832

I brought you some bread,

cheese and coffee.

1003

01:
17:17,125 -- 01:17:18,082

Thank you.

1004

01:
17:19,833 -- 01:17:22,665

I must talk to you.

1005

01:
17:24,416 -- 01:17:26,165

I want to tell you

1006

01:
17:27,125 -- 01:17:30,624

I'm your sponsor

and you can count on me.

1007

01:
17:32,041 -- 01:17:34,665

No matter what happens. Okay?

1008

01:
17:38,958 -- 01:17:40,582

I just spoke to your father.

1009

01:
17:41,666 -- 01:17:42,999

It looks good.

1010

01:
17:43,666 -- 01:17:45,186

He took a cab and he's on his way

here.

1011

01:
17:45,333 -- 01:17:46,207

What?

1012

01:
17:47,000 -- 01:17:48,124

They released him.

1013

01:
17:49,041 -- 01:17:51,457

Eat your bread and drink your coffee.

1014

01:
17:51,833 -- 01:17:53,124

Afterward, we'll go down and

1015

01:
17:55,125 -- 01:17:56,707

welcome your father.

1016

01:
18:22,375 -- 01:18:23,040

Hey!

1017

01:
18:23,541 -- 01:18:27,040

Stop fondling your kid

or you'll end up back in jail.

1018

01:
18:27,208 -- 01:18:29,707

There's eggs and bacon to eat.

1019

01:
18:30,083 -- 01:18:30,707

Come.

1020

01:
18:30,875 -- 01:18:33,249

It's nice to see you again,

scoundrel!

1021

01:
18:35,333 -- 01:18:37,749

Fanny! Hello, my girl!

1022

01:
18:38,291 -- 01:18:40,374

It could have been worse.

1023

01:
18:40,666 -- 01:18:44,207

You two, take a shovel

and dig a basement.

1024

01:
18:44,833 -- 01:18:46,499

Fanny peed on the floor.

1025

01:
18:46,666 -- 01:18:48,957

No, this is surely the police!

1026

01:
19:19,750 -- 01:19:21,874

- Fanny!

- She'll be back.

1027

01:
19:31,333 -- 01:19:35,082

Do you want me to wash

the pants?

1028

01:
19:38,416 -- 01:19:39,374

What do you mean?

1029

01:
19:41,250 -- 01:19:42,540

What are you getting at?

1030

01:
19:43,333 -- 01:19:44,332

Nothing.

1031

01:
19:45,208 -- 01:19:47,040

I was just wondering if I

should wash them.

1032

01:
19:47,291 -- 01:19:48,707

Yes, if you can find them yourself.

1033

01:
19:49,541 -- 01:19:51,207

Yes, I'll get them in a minute.

1034

01:
19:52,125 -- 01:19:53,845

If you put your dirty clothes
