Thieves

THIEVES:

When did you leave the orphanage?

Not an orphanage, a shelter home.

And when did you get out?

Today.

Who takes care of you?

Me.

But you must have

relatives somewhere...

I already have a trainee.

I need a skilled worker.

I'm no trainee. I'm good.

It's written there.

It's what I did in the center.

You're too young.

Give me a chance.

If you don't like me I'll leave.

I'm a good worker.

The letter...

Yeah, and that you behave.

I've read it.

What do you lose by testing me?

What if you mess up a client?

Hair grows back.

Careful not to cut his ear.

Won't be a big loss

but he's my nephew.

One month trial.

Minimum plus tips.

Deal?

Deal.

What are you doing here?

- I'm looking for Ana.

- She's back?

- And who are you?

- She's my mom.

- I've never seen you around before.

- I live with my grandparents.

Your mom owes me two months.

It's not the first time

she's taken off.

She's at my uncle's

for a few days.

She said to ask you for the keys

if she wasn't back. She lost hers.

- She lost her keys?

- She gave me money for you.

Tell her I want the rest

and if she plans any more vacations

to let me know and pay in advance.

Some say they sound

even better than CD's.

It's a lie.

But it's a beautiful lie, isn't it?

See anything you like?

I'm looking for a woman.

She's Rumanian,

brunette, in her 30's...

Her name is Ana.

- Why should I know her?

- She sells you things.

What kind of things?

Small things.

They must be very small.

She doesn't ring a bell.

Watches, rings...

I buy and sell art.

I don't find lost people.

If you're not interested in buying,

you can always

bring me something interesting.

You'd be more than welcome.

- Good night.

- Good night.

- See you tomorrow.

- See you tomorrow.

I'll charge him.

It's no problem,

come back any time.

I don't think it was him.

Let's hope not.

- Very good.

- That's for you.

Thanks.

Sorry.

I said not to touch the goatee.

I told you not to before.

I barely touched it.

I'll even it out on both sides.

What's going on?

Is there a problem?

The boy is daydreaming.

Look what he's done.

He's new. Don't worry, I'll fix it.

It won't show.

That's 10 euros.

My wallet.

I had it here.

It's not here.

It's okay, pay me next time.

All my money was in there.

It's light brown.

It could have fallen out...

No, it's not there.

I left with it, I'm sure.

I just paid for a coffee.

Are you sure it's not there?

I looked hard.

It's okay, you can come back

and pay me another day.

- Tomorrow.

- Whenever you like.

- Tomorrow for sure.

- Don't worry.

- Goodbye.

- See you.

Go sweep your place.

- How could you?

- What?

You know what.

- I didn't steal that wallet.

- You didn't?

I help you and this is how

you pay me back?

It wasn't me.

He must have lost it.

Empty your pockets.

Make him do it too!

I told you.

Empty your pockets.

It wasn't me.

Empty your pockets!

I didn't steal anything.

Wait, wait!

- What are you doing?

- What?

- Stop or I'll call the cops.

- I brought you the CD.

What CD?

- I don't know what you mean.

- Any good?

You tell me.

It had the magnet inside.

They'd have caught you.

I was going to take it out after.

After getting caught?

- I don't know much about music.

- Keep it and learn.

- I'll buy you a coffee.

- Look.

Thank you for that. I got in trouble

and you helped me out.

- Goodbye.

- Where are you going?

What do you care?

- Come on, just a quick coffee.

- I'm in a hurry.

- We can meet later.

- I will not see you.

Stop following me or I'll scream.

I can teach you if you want.

Teach me what?

To steal stuff.

CD's, DVD's,

whatever you want.

Five more minutes of history

and I'd have slit my wrists.

How about a drink?

We can get off at my stop.

No, I've got to study.

- How did you do in macro?

- What?

The macro exam?

- Fine.

- I left half of it blank.

I have to ask for a revision.

If I do well in the others

maybe I'll pass.

My parents will kill me if I fail.

Is something wrong?

Somebody is following me.

What do you mean?

He waits for me outside my house

and he follows me.

You mean an old man?

No, he's our age.

What does he do?

- He follows me and then leaves.

- That's all?

Did he say something?

Did he touch you?

No, not me.

Next time call me.

What will you do?

I don't know.

- Call the police, for example.

- You could beat him up.

You said he didn't touch you.

But he bothers me, a lot.

You're crazy.

If he comes back,

we call the police.

I can walk you home.

No, get off at your stop.

- I'll walk you.

- No, really.

Back already?

Weren't you going out with Jorge?

No, I'm staying home.

I have an exam tomorrow.

Are you coming with us

for the weekend?

No, I have things to do.

You sure?

- Okay.

- Here.

What's this?

The grocery shopping.

I told you I'd keep the change.

Go on.

I told you I'd call the police.

Call your boyfriend

and tell him about the wallet.

I owed you that.

We're even now.

What were you trying to prove?

Nothing.

Just testing you.

To see what you'd do.

- Think you scare me?

- A bit, no?

Do you like this one?

Too flashy.

- That's the point.

- It will get you caught.

Your specialty.

What do you want now?

You owe me half.

- Half of what?

- From the bus...

Only 10?

Don't you trust me?

I'll give you my share

because it's your first time.

Next time we'll be luckier.

Man,

there won't be a next time.

Why not? We could work together.

Fifty-fifty.

- I don't steal.

- What about the CD?

Everybody steals sometimes.

No, not everybody.

They even include it in the price

to make up for it.

Okay, but why the wallet?

Is that how you make a living?

Like you, only sometimes.

Let's split it.

I don't need the money.

I can teach you what I know.

If you know so much,

why do you need me?

With two it's easier.

Like on the bus.

You were lucky, that's all.

Luck has nothing to do with it.

It takes expertise.

You like that one?

- It's too expensive.

- Do you like it or not?

Here.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

It has the plastic.

Are you crazy?

You didn't warn me!

- Next time I'll let you know.

- There won't be a next time.

- You were scared.

- No, I wasn't.

I didn't even like the dress.

Then I'll keep it.

- You can't use it.

- My girlfriend can.

As if you had one.

If you did you wouldn't be

following me around.

Don't laugh. Count me out.

I'll find someone else.

Really?

Then why spend so much time with me?

You aren't bad at it.

Meet here tomorrow?

If I say yes, will you stop

following me?

I'll think about it.

Goodbye.

I want to sell this.

Got a receipt?

It was my grandfather's.

He died last month.

I only buy things with a receipt.

I imagine you lost it, right?

Is that okay?

It's a family memento.

But you're selling it.

My grandfather and I

didn't get along.

I'm not negotiating.

This is what I pay

for a pen like that one.

It's worth 3 times that.

It's worth 5 times that.

But in this shop...
