The Unknown Woman Page #4

Where are you hiding?

Where's Tea?

Tea, come out!

Tea!

Tea!

Tea!

What happened? What's wrong?

Calm down!

What's wrong?

What happened?

They've kidnapped the child.

Who?

What are you saying?

Where were you?

Answer me!

I won, you couldn't find me!

I'm sorry.

- It's over.

- Can I help you?

Convince your mother

to let me stay here tonight.

- You scared of the newspaper man?

- Just to stay with you.

Okay, but if she says yes,

can we make peace?

We've already made peace, my love.

- Hurry, we're late!

- Don't run!

Now how do we get to school?

You got yourself fired.

I'd have bet.

It's been bad news

since you set foot here.

Let me stay a few more days.

Where do I put you?

It's all flooded downstairs.

And I want no trouble,

you're too dangerous.

- You're ungrateful.

- I always respected our pacts.

The money? I'll give it back.

You never understood,

I love you.

The two of us will go far.

Already decided

how you'll have me killed?

What? You know

I always liked you.

Too bad you've become

a little bizarre.

Who knows where

we might have wound up!

Right where we are now...

the end.

- There's still some time.

- Then let's drink.

If it's the last time,

I want to get drunk with you.

Why do they call you Mold?

Here.

Take your hands off me.

Sorry.

Want me to talk to Mrs. Adacher?

She'll have you back.

I'm too old for you.

What are you doing?

Don't be afraid.

- Give a kiss to Daddy.

- Bye-bye.

Hi!

- How are you?

- I tried, but she's angry, afraid.

- Of what?

- Of you.

- What did you do to my mother?

- Nothing.

Aren't you hiding

something from me too?

I love you,

I'd do anything for you.

Tea...

Thank you.

- Hello.

- Hello.

I was just saying hello.

- Please...

- I understand.

She wants to come back,

but Mommy said no.

You need patience,

that's how my wife is.

She'll get over it.

It's small,

but brought me so much luck...

I prepared my exams here

and wrote my thesis.

The rent's low, so I kept it.

Be great if you took it!

- Where do those stairs go?

- A service exit.

Shut up!

Think it'd be easy

to kill a guy like me?

A few scissor stabs and bye-bye,

like the movies?

We can't all be good like you.

Since you ran away,

I've had time...

...to think how to get rid of you.

Now, I've got a couple of ideas

how to kill you.

- Pick the one you like best

and get it over with. - In time!

I'm more generous than you, Giorgia.

If you answer me, I give my word

I'll leave you in peace.

- Where's the money?

- What money? I don't know anything.

Go! Go!

Don't come in!

Please.

I should have known who you were,

that it was blackmail.

How much do you want?

I don't want anything.

What are you after?

Friendship and comprehension?

Get this in your head...

...I'll never let you steal

my daughter from me.

- Your daughter?

- Yes, she's my daughter.

Resign yourself, it's all legal.

You can't do anything.

I'm her mother by all legal rights.

Say an amount.

I don't want

anything from you, Madame.

Then leave my daughter alone.

Never show your face here again!

Give back the keys to the car.

And these?

The house keys.

You're a terrible thief too.

You gave them to me already.

Who's the newspaper man?

Go away, Madame.

Get lost or you'll be sorry,

you and whoever's behind you!

You're in over your head.

You've no idea the money

we could've made on this.

- Don't you dare, she's not in this.

- But she's dangerous.

Cough up the dough!

One week, or you're done for!

I know you,

you'll get rid of me anyway.

Believe me, sweetheart,

you'd be better off.

I could have done it

lots of times...

...but I never wanted to take her away.

I just wanted to be near her,

that was enough.

Watch her grow,

see how she was like her father.

Maybe I should have done

like so many others...

...who make a scandal...

...and take back what's theirs.

Maybe I still could.

Why do you always make me sign?

Why do you always make me sign?

Hear that?

It's a few days now.

So she can walk!

It's important she can communicate.

- Do you have an appointment?

- Well, no...

...but Mr. Adacher knows me,

I worked for his wife.

- Look...

- Just 5 minutes, it's urgent.

Alright, I'll see what I can do.

- Are you Irena Yaroshenko?

- Yes.

I'm sorry,

but Mr. Adacher can't see you.

Has something happened?

Keep going! Again, again!

- Hello, Mr. Adacher.

- Hello.

It's good you came,

I'd have looked for you.

I wanted to come earlier,

but was afraid of disturbing.

Don't worry.

- How's Tea?

- Not very well.

She's jittery,

asks lots of questions...

...like, when Valeria will return

from the trip we invented.

Has she missed a lot of school?

She's at my sisters',

but doesn't like being there.

She also asks about you.

If you like, I could keep her company

a few hours a day...

Actually I wanted to ask you

to return full time.

There's a room for you

in our new house.

It would make Tea happy.

Giorgia, you really like moving.

Those who leave their country

move house a thousand times.

Nice ditty, but cut the bullshit.

Where's the money?

Who says then you'll let me go?

I swore to God

I'd break your neck...

...but if He can turn a blind eye...

- Just you and me.

- You never spoke such love.

Too bad.

Trust me now?

These go in the study,

this needs fixing.

Irena!

Hello.

- How are you?

- Fine and you?

Better, now that I see you.

I'll show you your room.

- See how big it is?

- Where's Mommy's room?

We'll go later.

How do I arrange your furniture?

Come on, darling,

we'll invent lots of things.

There's not much to invent,

I want everything like before.

What did you do to your hands?

Irena?

It's for you.

- Are you Irena Yaroshenko?

- Yes.

Come with us to the station.

- Why?

- A communication. - Alright.

What's the matter?

Nothing!

I'll be right back.

Let me keep this one, please!

What's it to you? I'll work

the whole time, just let me keep it!

Leave me alone!

Forget it, hear me?

Do you have a license?

Yes.

I must have left it home,

but I know the number. RC 3097...

...254B.

- Recognize it?

- Yes.

And this?

How was your relationship

with Mrs. Valeria Corsini Adacher?

Excellent.

When did you see her last?

Believe me, I liked her.

But you had violent arguments.

Why?

She wasn't happy with my work,

it happens.

What about your fingerprints

on the dashboard?

She drove that car everyday.

Counselor, the shoe, the license...

I dropped them.

How's that figure with the accident?

Mrs. Adacher

ran off the road...

...because the brakes and the engine

were tampered with.

It wasn't an accident,

it's a homicide.

I don't even know

where a car's brakes are!

It's obvious

Irena Yaroshenko is innocent.

The evidence is flimsy.

Alright.

What's "alright" mean?

We didn't convince them.

Supervisor!

What place is this?

Five steps from the watering trough,

towards the dog's grave.

- That's where the money is.

- Dog's grave, the trough...
