If there was only one person

in the world

who would make you happy,

who was made for you,

what would you sacrifice

to find him?

How many centuries

would you search for him?

And if you were

to ever find him,

would you let him go?

Wouldn't you hold him as tight

as possible with both arms

and never, ever let him go?

What did we jet to Paris

for anyway?

You shouldn't have killed

the pilot.

Charlotte?.

Two more pages.

I want to know how it ends.

Now.

- What a shame.

- What?.

It isn't your fault.

Let me guess.

Her eyes were too pretty

to be true.

Don't listen to her, Louise.

You'll be lucky sometime.

Sometime.

Watch out!

Freeze!

Get down on the ground!

Get down, I said!

Hands behind your head!

Spread your legs!

Stay down!

Freeze!

Out of the way!

Let go!

Police!

Ow!

Excuse me!

Hi.

Did you see a guy run past?.

This tall?.

Hooded sweatshirt, dark pants.

Sorry.

What have you got?.

Not a trace.

I can't believe it!

May I sit down next to you?.

I have to rest a bit.

That rat was too fast for me.

What'd he do?.

Who?.

The rat who was too

Fast for you.

He ripped off a Russian pimp

we were about to arrest.

Oh.

I bet he doesn't know

who he ripped off,

but he nearly screwed up

our operation.

Tom.

Hi.

Doesn't that hurt?.

It's okay.

There's broken glass everywhere.

Thanks for the warning.

It's too late.

What now?.

I have to arrest you.

- If you catch me.

- If I catch you?.

I got away once.

I didn't know

who I was chasing.

But now I know

who I'm running from.

Does it make you faster?.

What kind of cop are you?.

We could...

Stay here.

Stop it.

I don't want to hurt you.

Sorry, Tom.

"Insufficient funds.

Contact your bank."

Hey, sweetheart.

You didn't tell me your

probation officer is so nice.

Could I have a glass of water?.

Yes, of course.

- Are you crazy?.

- F*** off, man!

Let her in.

[translated]

Cold nights

Let your eyes shine

Hollow dreams

And my soul makes

its demands

Fast breathing

Our bodies quiver

Gently trembling...

And my soul is burning

I'm dying of thirst.

Buy me a drink if I pay?.

No, don't!

Don't.

Keep it.

As a down payment for gazing

into your beautiful eyes.

Where are your friends?.

What friends?.

Nobody your age goes out

without their clique.

I fly solo.

If you want to be different

you have two choices.

You are destroyed

by their world,

or you create your own world.

You need money for that.

All you need is courage.

And you have both.

Enough for two.

I'd rather do my own thing.

Good luck.

You don't see it yourself.

Your eyes are blind,

although they betray you

with every glance.

What are you talking about?.

About what's inside you.

And what is it?.

Something special.

Rare.

Breathtaking.

You'd be the first human

being to notice it.

I'm no human being.

Berlin. There was a tragic

plane crash last night.

A plane coming from Paris

crashed within city limits...

The lions first dig

into the fallen prey,

always a bloody but

fascinating spectacle.

I was so excited about you

coming that I couldn't sleep.

Nora.

Come on!

Good evening.

What did you do to me?.

Sit down.

What did you do to me?.

Don't.

I know what you need.

What's in there?.

Your new life.

To immortality.

That's all bullshit!

You're all crazy!

Oh.

Your new trophy doesn't seem

to get the picture.

You'll have to

show her the proof.

If you want her to swim,

throw her in the water.

- You have a girl for me?.

- Yes.

- Does she have any experience?.

- Not yet.

What are you doing to me?.

I'll teach you something

you don't want to learn.

Don't show any sympathy.

The more evil the man,

the sweeter the blood.

She said you're a shy girl.

We'll take care of that.

I paid for you!

She learns fast.

We rarely treat ourselves

to pimps.

Just wait.

Oh, Louise.

Pretty please.

You have two red ones

that you never drive.

Let go.

Let go.

- Morning.

- Morning.

Morning.

Morning.

What's all this sh*t?.

Ohlsen, where are the stiffs?.

Downstairs.

- Morning.

- Hi.

Did you tell anybody?.

Where'd you get that idea?.

Okay.

How many stiffs are there?.

Two. A burned body here.

The second one's in the back.

They died about eight hours ago.

Is the one in the

back burned too?.

- Yeah.

- Who found them?.

- Two young kids.

- Did you question them?.

Well, I'll be damned.

Am I dead?.

You won't quench your thirst

with abstinence.

Well?.

How does it feel?.

Yes.

I know.

You have no idea what

wonders await you here.

I know how you feel, Lena.

I remember my own

transformation.

It was a masked ball at court.

It all happened so fast.

I hated her at first.

How could she do it to me?.

But then we travelled

all over Europe together.

She showed me the world

and opened my eyes.

When she burned to death

in Nice a century later,

I wanted to join her.

I was so desperate, so lost.

But something held me back,

a longing, a hope,

and I began to search again.

And now...

I've found you at last.

There's no way they could have

manipulated the tapes.

Hmm.

There.

Huh?.

We have a witness.

I don't get it.

Zoom in.

What's that on his ear?.

Cool!

You should have given

her a wedding dress.

Welcome to the family.

You look fantastic.

- Shall we?.

- I don't have any shoes.

Oh, my poor little Cinderella.

Take yours.

Press.

The one with the fewest

bags has to pay.

Got a favourite restaurant,

Lena?.

Do we eat?.

Just for fun.

We eat, drink, sniff coke,

and f*** as much as we like.

But we never get fat,

pregnant or hooked.

Enjoy it.

Billions of babes would

kill to be in our place.

Did you see that?.

It can smile.

The waiter isn't on the menu.

That was my dessert.

Enjoy it.

Doesn't satisfy my hunger,

but it still tastes awesome.

Mmm! Mm!

How old are you anyway?.

- Tut, tut!

- Never ask a lady's age.

If Louise hadn't found me

at the Love Parade, I'd be 37.

Hey, sweetheart.

Smoking isn't permitted here.

Was that all you wanted to know?.

How many of you are there?.

- And the men?.

- Extinct.

They were too loud, too

greedy, and too stupid.

Some were killed by humans.

We took care of the rest.

And we swore never to bite

a man who had the gift.

Long live emancipation.

Yes, for over 200 years,

no man,

neither mortal nor immortal,

has told me what to do.

No king, no boss,

no husband.

What woman can make that claim?.

Excuse me.

If you ever hit on me again,

I'll have you fired!

I know.

It was a bit mean.

But he's cute, isn't he?.

Why do you treat him

so cruelly?.

I don't want to hurt him.

You just did.

I mean, really hurt him.

People fall apart so easily.

Come on!

Charlotte.

Charlotte!

You're so beautiful.

You're so beautiful.

I didn't mean to rush into it.

I'm sorry.

Stupid Louise.

Stupid, stupid, stupid Louise.

"Print job in a print queue."

Good morning.

- You're early.

- Yeah.

Did you even go home?.

I couldn't sleep.

- Why not?.

- No idea.

Afraid of missing something.

I'll give you some advice.
