Have a good one.

Hello?

Oh, honey, it's you. Guess what? I was just about to call you, baby.

Cut the crap, will you? Now, what's up?

Hold on, sweetheart. I've got a client.

Hi, how you doing?

Fine. I'm sorry, but the shop is closed.

Well, I'm sorry, but the sign says you're open.

I apologize.

I'm working on my stock list. I'm sorry.

Not only does he wait for me to call, but he puts me on hold. That's crazy. I

can't believe this guy.

All right, I'm back, honey.

Guess what? I've got rid of an extremely demanding client.

The dude wanted a discount on the Holy Shroud. Can you believe that?

I would really appreciate it if you would cut the usual bullshit right away.

don't have time for that. Relax, honey. Forget the jokes.

Did you find a buyer at last?

Of course I did.

That's good.

Now I'm going to have to have the money as soon as possible.

I don't want to take chances. You hear me, Peter?

Yeah, I hear you. Is your buyer reliable?

Don't be so nervous, for Christ's sake.

I've got a meeting with him tomorrow.

Trust me on this for once.

Who is he? I'd rather not talk about it on the phone. Let's be professional.

Professional?

Let's hope you damn know what you're doing.

And let's hope you're not crazy enough to try to pull a fast one on me, Peter,

or I swear you'll be dead, buried six feet underground, even before you know

Take my word, so let's be smart.

Take it easy. Why don't you meet me by the lake around two, huh? What do you

say? All right, then. Let's meet at the restaurant.

You tell me more about it.

Okay, and by the way, don't bring your whore along.

Come on, I wouldn't do such a thing. I love you too much. Listen, I've got to

hang up. I'll see you later.

Are you going out or what?

Now, there's proof you don't listen to me, Peter. You don't pay attention to

I'm sick and tired of it all. I'm your wife, for heaven's sakes.

Now, I'm going to tell you again.

We're supposed to have lunch with our American clients. Is that clear?

Oh, damn.

Where's my blue jacket?

I'm not the housemaid.

Are you coming, or did you plan to go somewhere?

I can't come.

You're going to see that bitch of yours, am I right?

Oh, come on. Not that one again.

You know damn well I'm not seeing her anymore.

Martha and I are just friends. And business partners, that's all. She uses

a go -between and nothing else. I've just found her a client. I've got to

him by Lake Balaton.

And then I'll introduce him to Martha and hopefully we'll agree to make a

That's all. I may sound childish, but I can't bear the thought of you doing

business with one of your ex -girlfriends.

Sylvia.

You've got no reason to be jealous.

I'll be back tomorrow.

What do you mean tomorrow?

You never know with these kinds of business deals. As a businesswoman, you

what it's all about.

True, but I seldom have dinner with my ex. Nothing to worry about, sweetheart.

Trust me on that.

I'm the one who could be worried.

You're lovely.

Peter, love, be careful. You're messing up my hair.

All right.

Then I'm going to mess with some other part of your body.

Whoa, this is how you plan to go out?

You're a dirty lady.

Oh.

Oh.

I gotta go now.

Look, I'm sorry.

You're never going to believe this, but some nut jumped under my car as I was

driving. The guy had to be crazy.

Just another lie.

Oh, come on. I swear it's the truth.

And do you really think I'm going to buy that? I've been waiting for you for an

hour already. You've got no respect whatsoever for me. Don't push it. I'm

half an hour late. That's all. Now, if you don't trust me, why don't you call

someone else?

All right. Calm down.

Hi. Would you like something to drink, sir?

Another new girl?

The high season will start soon. I need new talents.

Listen,

give me some coffee and a whiskey with ice, all right?

Something else, ma 'am?

No, thanks.

She's fine, thanks.

Wow.

Good looking.

She works here all day and all night at the whorehouse by the lake.

Does she get any rest?

I don't know.

All right, forget it. Tell me, how's your restaurant doing?

Do you really want to know, or are you just being social?

Come on, I'm not that cynical.

Well, look for yourself.

The place is empty. All right, let's talk about the Roman plate, then. How

do you want for it? I want 25 Gs. What?

What currency?

Rubles? Durables?

Monopoly bills?

I'll only accept dollars.

You're right.

I really like your sense of humor.

25 Gs, and that's my last offer.

It's your job to get it done. I don't want to know anything about it. What we

have here is a masterpiece.

I hope you're right, because Salvatore is no clown, and I doubt he'll want to

spend more than 15 Gs. You said Salvatore. Is he your buyer?

A wise guy of the worst kind? Are you crazy?

Thanks.

Peter, find me another buyer. I don't trust that pepperoni lover. He's

dangerous. I'm sorry, but you're way off the bat. We're talking a business sale

here. And don't forget that Salvatore lent you some money to open your

restaurant. Now, where's that plate anyway?

In a safe place.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, right. But where?

You'll know in due time.

I see you don't trust me. Well, that's too bad.

Salvatore will be here tomorrow and we'll see what happens.

In the meantime?

Look, let's forget about it. You know what?

You and I, we're too tense.

Let's have something to eat in a quiet place tonight.

I can't believe that you're about to invite me in my own private restaurant.

I meant the house by the lake.

What, you haven't sold it yet?

I haven't.

This house is filled with so many memories, it would break my heart.

I really don't know.

Come on, Marta. All right, you can count on me.

You won't regret it. No need to give you directions, I guess.

No, I guess there's no need.

Don't expect me too early. I still have to close the restaurant, you know.

Mm -hmm.

Anytime you want.

My wife keeps on telling me that ex -lovers can't be friends, you know.

guess we're exceptional.

We've remained friends after all.

Anyway, my wife has hated you right from the start, you know that?

Are you still angry about her?

I'm not sure anymore about that. I've heard people say that time heals a

heart, and I guess it's true.

But you hated me for dumping you.

The whole thing is over now.

You hated me, yes or no?

It's so hot, you know.

Feels like summer is almost here.

You could never speak your mind, and I see you haven't changed one bit. How

you tell me such a thing?

Look, I'm sorry.

I'm truly sorry.

I didn't mean to hurt you.

Here, have a sip of champagne.

By the way, Salvatore will be here tomorrow afternoon. That gives us time

on a sailing trip.

I doubt I'll be able to make it. I'm supposed to go out with my young cousin,

Alexia. I told her we would shop till we dropped.

Ah, that cousin of yours. I remember her. She's a nice girl.

She still have those braces?

Alexia is no longer a teenager. She's a woman now. And I hear men find her quite

attractive. Mm -hmm. Why don't you bring her along tomorrow?

I'm sure she'll have a real nice time.

I thought you wanted to spend some time with me.

Well, I do.

It's the only thing on my mind.

I've drunk too much champagne.

I think I'm in love with you.

I've always been in love with you.

Oh, baby, please, don't go.

I'm not sure it's the right thing to do. Let's be serious, Peter. Oh, you're the

one true love of my life. I never should have let you walk away.

Give me another chance.

Please, stay with me tonight. Just stay with me. Listen to your heart. Come on.

Oh.

Hey, Alexia. How you doing? Hi, Frank.

I was in the area, so I thought I'd stop by. Is Marta in? Yeah, but she's still

asleep. She must be real tired. Why don't you come in?

Hold on, will you? Let me do it. As you like.

Come on, wake up. The sun

is shining outside.

Hey, Frank, what are you doing here?

Well, I'm off this weekend. Can you believe that? But I'm supposed to be

if they call me. It feels good to be away from the hectic life of the

I'm afraid I drank too much wine last night. I was invited to a cocktail party

at the Archaeology Society. That kind of thing is pretty boring, but you've got

to show up for the record.

One more month and we'll be through with the dig.

And have you found anything so far?

Nothing valuable so far, but you never know.

How would you like to have lunch with me in an hour?

I don't know.

Don't tell me you had plans to go digging those skulls.

Hey, I'm sorry, but archaeology deserves more respect.

It's serious stuff.

If you say so. I apologize.

Anyway, I guess it's too bad for me then. I had planned to take a walk in

forest. It's up to you if you want to come along.

Oh, please, don't do this to me.

Looks like my plans for the weekend are canceled.

Yeah, officer Gunn.

I'm not that far from the shores of Lake Ballaton.

Yeah, right.

Yes, I understand.

I don't know, but if I put the pedal to the metal, I'll be there in a good half

hour.

All right, later then.

That's life as a cop.

So I guess you have to go. How long are you going to be away?

I can't tell you, Marta. You never know what can happen.

You know what? I'll call you when I'm done.

Not always easy to date a cop, as you can see. Not easy to date a man, period.

Oh, my God. We've got to be at the pier by 11.

I'm ready to go. It's up to you.

Well, let me change, and we're off, all right?

Oh, my, my. Take off the top. Come on. Take it easy.

You're right. It's harder than hell.

Well, you sure have changed a lot since I last saw you.

Oh, Alexia.

Oops. Sorry, girl.

Hi, Tabletour. How you doing?

I'm sailing on the lake.

Don't push it, man. I wasn't expecting you so soon.

Hey, man, what do you expect? I'm the unpredictable kind, but it doesn't make

any difference.

I got the dough, you got the stuff.

Don't you worry. Everything's fine.

I want this business done and over with, and I hope you'll keep your word about

the price we agreed on, which was $50 ,000.

Come on, be cool. It's all good. It's a question of honor.

Hey, what do you think I am? If you think I'm not cool, you're wrong.

You're the one who should be worried. You hear me?

Don't you forget who I am. Is that clear?

Here's what we're going to do. There's a restaurant on the northern shore. Wait

for me over there, all right?

You got it.

The northern shore.

Yeah, there's your restaurant.

Hurry up and don't make me wait, dude. I wasn't born a patient guy. Got that?

Yeah, right.

Ciao.

I've got to go talk to Salvi. Is it so urgent?

Hey, that guy is no clown.

Calm down, William. I'm not your slave.

Look, I'm sorry, but Salvatore's waiting for me, and I've got to say I'm a bit

nervous, okay?

I don't trust that dude.

Take it easy.

Just do what you're told, and you'll see. Everything will be fine.

Yeah, Peter speaking. Come and get me, please.

Full speed. I'm in a hurry.

Don't tell me you expected a nice romantic day on the lake. That guy has

walking. What do you think?

Of course I know it.

But I wanted to have fun with him.

And I hate the idea of doing business with Salvatore.

Those mafiosos are too dangerous. There's too much at stake here. Looks

you're a bit tense.

You need to relax.

I have a feeling I know what you're going to do to me.

I know exactly what a woman needs to let herself go.

Your body's crazy.

Oh, God.

Sorry I'm late.

That's all right.

Nice trip? Who cares?

Now listen.

Let me tell you something, Peter. I want the plate today.

If not, I throw your dead body in the lake.

You got it?

You don't mean what you say.

I'm just a go -between. The plate belongs to the girl.

Hey, look, that's your problem. You cash the down payment check if I'm not

mistaken. That's true. So try to be on the level. If you're not smart enough to

know where the girl hid that plate, well, I'm afraid you're kind of useless.

We can have a talk with her if you want.

Try to touch her.

Hey, don't threaten me.

You're lucky you're still alive.

Look, I don't get this.

I invite you guys here. Everything seems all right.

And with no reason, you don't trust me anymore.

So what?

Here's your down payment.

Why don't you go to the whorehouse and get laid?

That's what we're going to do. Good idea.

Midnight. That's your deadline.

Don't disappoint me Peter.

Come on Mario, the girls are waiting for us.

Careful buddy.

Hey!

Remember the two girls on that boat? Yeah, I do.

Where have they gone?

Well... I'm a dead man!

Martha?

Shit.

Hello?

When are you coming home?

You were supposed to give me a call.

Yeah, I know. Things are pretty complicated. You know what it's like. I

you're pushing it.

Yeah, that's right.

And you really think I'm going to buy all your excuses? I swear, that's the

truth. Our client hasn't arrived yet. I'm sick and tired of all this.

Listen to what I've got to... Shit!

Hello? That's a hell of a job under the sun. Most men would have to give it up.

But you're not afraid of hard work.

Well, it's a dirty job, you know, but it keeps me in good shape.

Would you like to take five to rest a little bit and have something to drink?

Me?

Well, I don't know. What about your husband? He's out, and I believe he's

another lawn.

Well, I mean, if you insist.

All right, come on, don't be shy, neighbor.

All right.

Come in, please.

Have a seat. Make yourself at home.

Cheers.

It looks like the happiness is missing from this picture. Your husband

doesn't love you anymore?

Well, I guess you can say so. That man's an asshole.

I'm pretty sure he's back with his ex -girlfriend.

Some people will never learn.

I tell you what, if I was married to a beautiful woman like you, I swear I

wouldn't cheat on her.

Needless to say, I wouldn't let anybody get near you.

You sound like a knight.

Come closer.

I've got something you might need.

Let yourself go.

Bye. Bye.

Ahhhh!

This place is exactly what we need right now. Looks like you've drunk one too

many.

You know what?

There's nothing like those girls from Eastern Europe to break the ice, I

Yeah, you're right.

And I'll tell you something else. These girls, they would rage to death. They're

so hot, I'm serious.

I mean, it's a fact. Look at her. She's all lips and hips up and into her tits.

Bam!

Hey, what's your name?

Rita.

Nice to meet you.

You're not from around here, are you?

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Come on. Jump up on that table. Show me what you got.

Are we going to talk?

Thank you.

oh oh

Stop.

You sounded worried on the phone.

Something wrong?

Well, to tell you the truth, that's the least you can say.

I knew you were in trouble.

I could tell this morning.

I did some bad thing.

I'm going to tell you about it, but please try to understand me, all right?

Don't worry. You can trust me.

Well, a month ago on a dig in Ankara, I found a highly valuable Gallo -Roman

plate, a truly magnificent piece.

Of course, I should have reported it to the archaeological board, but I didn't

and tried to sell it off through one of my ex -boyfriends.

Getting close to the deadline.

So? I think I know where she hid that plate.

I wish you could be certain.

I'm pretty sure it's in her apartment.

But come to think of it, I doubt it.

Maybe it's in her restaurant.

But then again, there's too many people. The risk is too high.

You playing with me or what? Just tell me where the goddamn plate is, dude.

For Christ's sake, trust me and meet me at the boathouse.

I hope you know what you're doing.

Get ready. I'll come and pick you guys up in half an hour.

You're playing with your life.

You better be careful, asshole.

See you later.

As soon as I knew Salvatore was the buyer, I wanted out. But it was too

Peter had cashed in the down payment.

You've got my word. I tried to talk him out of it, but he's way too stubborn.

You're up to your neck in it now. You're facing big charges, you know.

Can we invoke mitigating circumstances if I do return the plate?

Hmm.

That's a possibility, but we'll have to call in the best lawyer in town.

The plate is in the boathouse.

I completely forgot. Peter knows that's where I hide everything I dig up.

Then we've got no time to lose.

Hurry up.

Let's go in.

Damn, they're already here.

Just do as I said.

So, where's that plate?

Freaks! Hands up, you clown.

Frank, he's right behind you.

Don't hurt him.

That's our little miss archaeology.

Get back.

Where's the plate? Spit it out.

Can't you see he doesn't have a clue where it's hidden?

What's going on here? Where's the plate?

He's my boyfriend.

This is getting interesting.

This guy is a cop. Damn. Don't tell me you go out with his shit.

Let's get out of here before the cavalry arrives.

Oh, Frank.

Frank, talk to me. Are you all right?

You're a dead man. You hear me?

I've got to call the precinct immediately. They took my cell phone.

yours? I must have left it in my bag, which is in your car. My God, you almost

got yourself killed.

Yeah,

I got lucky.

You're right. Those guys could have shot me.

They would have done it for me if it wasn't for you.

So tell me, where's the plate?

I'd like to see what I almost died for.

You're sitting on it.

Huh?

You serious?

As serious as can be.

You want it? You got it.

It's really magnificent.

You should have reported it to the board, don't you think so?

I should have, but I wanted a little extra money. You don't make a lot of

in this job.

Hey, what's the matter, Frank?

You've got to get out of here.

Come on, there's no hurry now.

I'm serious.

We found the plate.

We're safe and sound, and that's it. I'll catch Peter later on.

I think we deserve to rest a little while.

As for Salvatore and his gorilla, don't worry.

I'll give a call to my buddies from the border patrol and believe me, they'll

end up behind bars.

Oh, Frank, if you only knew how bad I feel. I really hope you'll forgive me

day.

You know I care about you, Marta.

Come on.

I don't know if I deserve the love and attention you're giving me.

You deserve it and much more.

Oh my -

What's up, dude? Hey, boss. Looks like you had one too many.

Think so?

Hi, girls. Feel like sailing today? You're too drunk to go anywhere.

You kidding? I've never been more sober.

It's just that my ex -girlfriend fucks a cop. Ain't that crazy?

Come on, girls. Be nice. Let's go sailing.

Where's your boat, Mr. Say -No -To -Booze? Right here in front of you. Wow.

Not bad. Yeah, that could be neat. Come on, girls. You won't regret it.

You'll love every minute of it.

Yeah.

What's that here?

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Ah.

I feel like starting with you, baby.

Take off that awful bikini, will you?

Now blow my cock.

Come on, look at girls, look at Queen.

Stop the engine.

Hey!

Peter Stomford, you're under arrest.

I hope you had a good time, buddy.

In the place you're going to end up, it'll take you years before you get to

a girl. Now let's go.

These guys are from your precinct? No, they actually work for Interpol, and

want to find out what links Peter to the Mafia.

Guess what? I've turned in the plate to the Board of Archaeology, and an art

collector bought it right away. So the Board has agreed to forget the whole

thing. Now, ain't life grand?

I knew you'd work your way out of this.

And I'm sure you get the recognition you deserve as an archaeologist. I'm proud

of you.
