All language subtitles for 04-Ho

Thank you. That's it for today.

Bye, girls.

You lost a bit of weight, huh?

Yeah, just a little. Chance bananas for
Tony, an intellectual type, a

philosopher or something.

And do intellectuals like thin women or
are just making him suffer?

No, hardly.

He's nuts about me.

Trouble is, all he likes to do is talk.

Well, that's all we ever get to do.

He's driving me up the wall.

It's not serious. It's probably a
complex shyness. You've got the

get him over it.

Good luck, girls.

Bye. Bye. Bye.

Okay, put that gun down. This is all I
have. I don't want your money. Pull into

that side street and stop.

I get it now. You want the car.

That's not true.

It's nothing great, but if you want it,
take it. But please, drop me off at a

gas station. No, no. I know what I want,
and that's to strangle you.

Come again? All I want is to murder you.

So pull over to that side street.

I can't see your point.

Just take a look around you.

The people in the street.

Can't you see what people are coming to?

Can't you see they're heading for
disaster and nobody realizes it?

No more values, no more ideals.

There's no morality left.

By killing you, I'll give the world a
lesson in morality.

I'm sorry, but how do I come into it?

Look. Look at that photo.

That's Janet.

And she's an angel.

But she's heading for damnation as well,
and it's all your fault. You are evil.

You stimulate the basest, most inhuman
instincts in people.

Sex. Shame.

Hell and damnation.

Hey, listen. If we could talk about it,
maybe I could understand it better.

I bet you could explain it all to me.

An executioner ought to know his victim
before he kills her.

How will you describe me to the judge?
I'm not afraid of a trial. I'm innocent.

I'll tell how I eliminated the symbol of
sex and the judges will thank me for

it.

But I will let you have a second or two
to repent your evil ways.

Thank you. That's really nice.

You're Tony, aren't you? How did you
know that?

Janet was talking about you.

She's so in love with you.

Don't talk about Janet!

She was pure, and now she's dirty.

You corrupted her with sex.

But now I'm going to redeem her by
killing you.

Then I'm going to marry her, and she's
never going to have to take her clothes

off ever again.

Why are you looking at me like that? You
think I'm crazy, don't you?

No, I don't.

Not at all.

I was thinking you're really nice, and
Janet's a simple girl.

There is nothing sinful about undressing
in front of a camera. It's a job like

any other, Tony.

But you are sinful. You don't take
pictures of children or flowers.

All you know about is sex.

And sex is the cause of all the
disasters of this century.

But, Tony, have you ever made love?

Never. I'm pure.

But once when I was a child, I saw my
mother.

It was shameful, and I'll never forget
it.

You're right.

Sometimes sex is shameful.

Corruption, prostitution, but not
always.

When it happens naturally, freely, then
it's a vital force.

It's happiness.

It's cleanliness.

It's love, even if it lasts only a
moment. Get away.

Please wait.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

It's loaded, all right.

You can have it.

Go to the police with it.

Do whatever you want.

Gee, what a scare that was.

With a crazy guy like that, anything
might have happened. Are you going to

report him?

Why? Who knows how much I'd be hurting
Janet.

Maybe today's experience will prove a
help.

After all, I'm still in one piece,
right?

Then we must celebrate your escape from
danger.

Let's start off with a drink, huh? Oh,
I'd love to, darling, but I have an

appointment in 15 minutes.

Which is a little short even for folks
like us who know each other so well.

And who never get to see each other
because their jobs get in the way.

Bill, darling, we've been repeating the
same things for so many years.

And for years I haven't been able to
spend five minutes with you without

that crazy urge.

The same goes for me.

But I'm in a hurry and... Are you trying
to say you want to leave me like this?

You did it yourself too sometimes.

Listen, are you going to force me to do
something really crazy?

Like marry you, for example? Here.

What difference would that make? It
would be a crime, not madness.

A crime against freedom.

Which is a must for both of us.

So do you want me to take this gun and
kill myself just to prove that I love

you?

Who needs a dead lover?

Hello?

Could you tell Joe that Miss Emanuel is
tied up until 8 o 'clock?

Thank you.

Thank you, my love.

You're the sweetest girl in the whole
wide world.

Don't thank me, darling.

I'm not making any sacrifices.

That's it, George.

Jab, jab.

Like that.

Keep that guard up. Jab with the left.

Get that chin behind your shoulder.

Hi, Joe.

Hey, baby.

Well?

Hey,

baby, better get you out of here. You're
distracting the boys.

I'm sorry about that.

It's your fault, honey. You're just so
good looking.

I'm still in great shape. Better than
ever.

Oh, yeah, baby. I gave Charlie a call,
but he wouldn't talk.

Who's Charlie? The cat that stepped in
for me.

What a crack of bugs.

Charlie? No, Van Deren. Who's Van Deren?
He's the rich cat that put me out to

pasture. 87 knockouts and 88 fights. Why
aren't you world champion?

That's politics, baby. You know how that
goes.

Yeah? But when I fought the champion,
that guy had buck shots in his gloves.

I start going after him in round one.
I'm working to the body. Joey, you told

all about it from round one to 15.

Let's get down to cases. You promised
you'd turn me on to a good story.

Oh, by the way, I brought you a check in
advance, okay? No, baby, no.

Since you went through the trouble, I'll
give it to the Salvation Army. Come on,

Joe. One good turn deserves another.

Right on, sister.

Now, this cat, Van Deren, is setting up
a harem. How about getting me into it,

hey, Joe?

Righteous. The cat's got it set up by
Zodiac signs.

Now, I happen to know he has a vacancy
for a Virgo. But I'm a Gemini. Just

it to me. I can do things to your
passport you wouldn't believe, baby.

When were you born?

Right on the date written in there.

I'm a Virgo.

Or don't you trust old Joe?

And yet you ought to know him. Like a
brother.

You're Charlie, aren't you?

The boss wants the girls to wear the
dresses he chooses for him.

The boss leaves nothing to the
imagination, huh?

Don't you think that a hot bath is as
nice as a lover's caress?

Oh, Joe didn't tell me you were so cold.
I thought we'd be friends.

Eric Van Deren.

So now I'm part of the furnishings. All
the girls here are known just by their

birth signs.

You wear this all the time.

Don't you like Virgos?

The rule of the house is work before
pleasure, honey.

Up to a certain limit.

What limit?

You just passed it.

Hey, Paul, where are the beavers now?

Oh, on the pool, Mr. Charlie.

Hey, you, Virgo, just a second.

Girls aren't allowed in this area.

Let's get going.

What exactly are the girls allowed to
do? The boss doesn't appreciate snooping

around. Really? When will I meet the
boss?

You don't catch on too quick, do you,
honey?

You're at his disposal.

What a boring boss.

Why don't we go take a swim together?

Any fraternization between the girls and
the personnel is admitted only when the

boss authorizes it. Oh, really?

You're a fine one to talk.

Oh, you must be the new Virgo. Where are
you from?

From New York. The last Virgo was
Italian.

Oh, where did she go?

The boss got tired of her. She put on 15
pounds and wouldn't go on a diet.

So he paid her off and sent her home.

Hi, I'm Gemini. Virgos and Geminis are
supposed to get along together.

Where can I find a tanga?

In there.

She just can't help it, poor kid.

Since she met that Pedro, she's lost her
head.

She's as mad as a hatter.

And the little bitch knows she can
manage it because the boss likes it.

Emmanuel!

Come on in. It's like chicken soup.

This is going to be a blog.

Kiss my lips, my lady.

Skin my shoulders.

I mean the boss.

That's right.

Yeah, nice choice.

Good old Joe.

We'll get acquainted later.

Don't stay in the sun too long.

No, sir.

I'll be careful.

My dear Duke.

You know, you're the only guest I've had
that hasn't taken advantage of the

facilities. Yet you're one of the most
refined persons I know.

What is it that isn't to your taste?

You mean why I don't accept one of your
girls?

Because I'm used to different
relationships, the more traditional

So you're still attracted by the chase,
eh?

A waste of energy.

I say save your strength for the
important things, like power, for

Why not?

I'm willing to fight for power, but
love, no.

Maybe a question of market values, like
everything else. What about sentiment?

You can express emotion, sentiment in
countless ways. Love, hate.

And I want something different from
women.

These ladies, you can have anything you
want.

Each is different.

Suitable for a different state of mind.

And with them, you can experience any
kind of eroticism.

Now I'm going to show you something very
unusual.

But...

Who knows?

Maybe it'll make you change your mind.

Every one of them has been chosen for a
different specialty.

Come on, Duke. There's got to be
something that turns you on.

Why, they're servicing you. What are
they thinking?

And what do you want them to think?

They're happy to give themselves in
exchange for the money they get. They

around the world in luxury hotels. They
drink champagne, caviar, refined foods.

And their only responsibility is to
satisfy a man.

And themselves, too, of course. Step
closer.

Yes.

What is it?

He hasn't given me the medallion for two
months.

He hasn't chosen me for two months.

Always the others.

He enjoys making me excited, and then he
drops me.

Isn't there anyone else you could do it
with?

No, he's forbidden it.

Once I answered him back, and this is
his way of punishing me. But I can't

it any longer. Why don't you leave this
place?

And go where?

To go back to Spain to my father's dirty
restaurant?

I can recommend it to you.

On the Madrid road with all the drunken
truck drivers trying to feel your

bottom. Would you like that?

That depends on the truck drivers. I
know some that aren't bad.

Now you are kidding me.

I was joking. I'm sorry.

You don't have to go back to Spain.

You could find a job.

Do whatever you feel like.

I want to stay here.

The boss has his funny ways, but you
live well with him.

What can I do?

What can I do if he doesn't want me any
longer?

What can I do if he ignores me like
this? Will you stop it?

Jesus, he's ruined you with his money.

And the worst thing is he's conditioned
your mind.

You think you're different.

I certainly do.

I like choosing my men, and never for
money.

Then you'll change here.

You'll see how well off we are here.

I don't want to go away.

I only want... What do you want me to
do?

I don't know.

I'm so alone.

I need love.

I need it, you understand?

Thank you.

When you hung the medallion around my
neck, I thought I was going to faint

happiness.

Your power and riches, your will, your
gaze, they dominate the world.

Your wonderful body is to be worshipped.

You can ask whatever you want of me,
provided that your hands touch me,

me.

Wait!

Don't you want to whip me first?

To see me suffer?

To make me feel your power, your
strength?

Suppose I told you the truth.

You're just a poor guy like so many
others, in spite of all your money.

Poor Eric Van Deren.

What sort of a man is someone who's
never known real love in his life?

Who's always been forced to buy
everything.

Power, orgasms, success.

Shut up.

stupid bitch.

I think you're afraid of women.

Women that speak terrify you.

They might destroy you.

Oh, poor Eric Van Deren.

You can do anything now.

Only you just can't let yourself go
without help.

This is a dangerous game of yours, but I
like it.

Something new.

I didn't know Virgos were like that.

And suppose it isn't a game?

I'm the boss and you know it. I'm paying
for this, so don't provoke me.

It's going to be fun for me to tame you.
A new diversion.

It's going to be a pleasure, my dear.

Are you so sure you'll succeed?

I succeed in everything I do.

I know.

That's why I came here.

Tonight's your lucky night, Linda.

Every night, Myra.

Luck is something I don't have to buy.

Can I play, too?

Think you can afford it? Why not?

And what if you lose?

How are you going to pay me?

I'll wash the dishes for the rest of my
life.

Full house.

Straight Two aces

Four eights.

That's impossible.

Three throws in a row.

Want to quit?

No, by Christ, not now.

I never lose.

Never.

Luck like this just makes me sick.

You're a very fine player.

No, I'm just having a bad night.

But I'll win it all back. Every lousy
penny.

I'm sorry I have to leave.

I'll miss your revenge.

Winning makes me tired.

I'm really sleepy.

Mind if I go to bed? You want to go
ahead and go to hell.

Would you please let me off at the first
bus stop? What the... My God.

What in heaven's name are you doing
there?

May I offer you a lift?

That's very kind of you. Where are you
heading?

Venice. Boy, I don't think I want to go
that far.

I knew you were different and not like
the others.

How could you tell that?

Well, it's just a feeling.

And the way you played last night at the
table.

I always win with millionaires.

What are you going to do with the money?

It's gone already. I bought my freedom
with it.

Clara, so that's how you managed to
escape.

Well, as soon as I get to a place I
don't know, I immediately try to make

friends with someone.

Oh, in what way?

The only way I know.

Just ask me this.

What was a girl like you doing at Van
Derens?

And you?

Well, I was trying to screw him. Me too.

May I be your next victim?

Now, let me introduce myself.

I'm Duke Elvise of Mount Elba.

And my name's Emanuel.

Are you really an aristocrat?

Yep. And our lives lasted for 400 years.

I'm a coniston of Venetian nobility.

I thought that the few bluebloods left
were preserved in golden castles.

I'd love to get to know you better.

I'm willing.

Unfortunately, I have to go home.

Are you sure you want to miss the party
I'm going to give in my golden palace on

the Grand Canal?

I don't think that she managed to get
the goods off the illegal arms trade,

she shot Van Deren's private harrow,
too.

Now, you know what that means?

That's the stuff that sells papers,
Bill, old buddy.

You mean to say that my political pieces
can't be used?

No, we got egghead readers to go for
that. But they're only 5 % of our

circulation.

But look, I don't want this competition
to cause trouble between you and a

man... Of course not. Come on, she's a
monster, but she's my girl and I love

her. I can't wait to have her back in my
arms again.

Well, I'm sorry, Bill, old buddy. I'm
afraid you're going to have to wait for

that a while longer.

Why? Where is she now?

Did you have a pleasant outing? Yes,
Duchess. Thank you very much. Please

me Laura.

Alfredo has spoken so much about you
that I feel we're all friends already,

though you've only been here for two
days.

That's very kind of you. Thank you,
Laura. Don't you just love living here?

of course. But with Alfredo, I'd be
happy anyway.

You know... When I asked her to marry
me, I thought she was a sales

girl in a department store.

When, in fact, I was the boss's
daughter.

That's a very romantic story.

Matrimony is a wonderful institution, my
dear. I always recommend it. I think

everyone ought to try it at least once.

I think my feelings on that subject are
quite different.

And what about the man coming tomorrow,
Bill? Is he just a colleague, or are you

engaged?

Not exactly.

You'll see him tomorrow.

We have a very special relationship.

We're very free, both of us.

I sympathize with your desire to be
free, but you don't know what you're

missing. Come now, there's nothing nicer
than an evening with your husband

before an open fire.

Every evening?

Well, we really have a lot of
engagements in our society.

Parties, shows, etc., etc.

What are you laughing at? Is it funny?

I think I ought to touch you two to see
whether you're real. You're the image of

the ideal couple.

Emmanuel, come here.

Now you've invited Emmanuel in, why
don't you offer her a brandy?

Would you prefer champagne?

Yes, thank you.

The Venetian humidity makes it hard to
sleep, but you'll get used to it.

Sometimes it really gets to me.

On the other hand, it does marvels for
the panorama.

Yeah.

But one of these days, dear Venice is
going to vanish.

Everything is going to be submerged.

You'll excuse me, I'm sure. I'm going to
take a bath.

You are beautiful, Emmanuel.

You think I'm ridiculous, old, that I
couldn't please you?

No, not at all. I think you're very
fascinating.

I like you very much.

It's just that I'm used to men who are
very straight.

I want to discover you like...

bit by bit.

I want to touch all of you.

I knew that I would come for us to meet
one day.

I promise you I'll regret it.

Hi. You were an angel to come here.
Well, I just can't stand being away from

too long. You know that.

Though I really should be storage.

Or leave me all alone in New York.

You alone?

How long did you stay alone? Well, a few
hours.

But then, of course, I had to console
myself.

while you were running around Venetian
palaces.

Don't you find that boring, by the way?
No.

You should get to know these
aristocrats, Bill. There is a certain

that's not really aristocratic.

Oh, the Duke and the Duchess are waiting
for you. Yes, but... Can you wait for

me a second?

I just want to make a phone call.

Be right back.

Smile, okay?

Bill? Yes?

How long are you going to stay?

Um, first flight to London.

Could you have arranged a couple of
days?

Or even one day?

No, just a couple of hours between one
plane and the other.

How many times do I have to tell you?
Why did you come all this way for two

measly hours?

It's like I said, I can't stand being
away from you too long.

Okay, but what are we going to do about
it?

Okay, we'll feed the pigeons, walk
around St.

Mark's, and head back to the airport,
right?

Wrong. We're going to skip the pigeons
this trip. And the same goes for St.

Mark's, but I am going to explore you.

All right, but where are we going to go?

Anywhere, even here. Hey, why not? Come
on.

Sweetheart, I'd like to have heard the
rest of it, but I'll miss my plane.

Man is true about matrimony as well.

I understand women are always really
more active than the rest. Do you agree?

Absolutely.

At last I found you.

Do you know me? No, but I will.

Antonio Ramirez.

How do you do?

And now?

Would you like a drink?

Is that all?

Later, maybe.

You're beautiful.

Hi, there.

You get your own drink.

Gregor has already spoken for us.

Can't I even look?

Of course you may. From a distance,
dear.

The gentleman's my constant.
Congratulations.

He's really something.

And the number?

Did you win him in a lottery?

I won him on my own.

It's quite a long story.

You appreciate risky stories, don't you?
Oh, yes, don't worry.

In the Caribbean Islands, there's this
delightful club for single women.

It's quite extraordinary.

How are you?

Fine, thank you.

You're looking well. Nice to see you.

I don't like people who are too
inquisitive.

I just happened to come in here.

I discovered your secret.

How you fixed Van Dern. I have my
informers.

The camera was concealed in this
bracelet, wasn't it?

What are you afraid of?

I'm not here for work.

And those forgeries don't interest me
professionally.

But if you put one over on Van Dern,
I'll... I find that amusing.

Why should I even trust you?

Do you have any choice?

You can kill me if you like.

Don't be so cynical.

Half of New York knows I'm here.

Do you think it's worth it?

Anyway, half of these are genuine.

I like to collect paintings.

All by yourself?

Mm -hmm.

How do you manage to get them through
customs?

Well, a noble title has its advantages.

Well, whatever.

It's a great collection.

They're perfect.

Seriously.

Something like your marriage.

We disappointed you, huh?

No, on the contrary.

I'm grateful.

Otherwise, I would have had doubts about
my aversion for marriage.

I might even have changed my mind.

Come on. The party is not over yet.

Can I have everybody's attention,
please?

The time has come to make this party
more interesting.

We're going to play a game, and the
first prize is going to be well worth

winning. Bring it in.

It's a simple game.

You just have to eat the cake.

The prize goes to whoever finds the
golden peanut. Bon appetit.

Senorita, show it us.

Not just now, thank you.

Congratulations senator the rest of the
cake is yours all of it all of it

May

I

be my guest I hope you have a sweet
tooth

How's the party for you?

I'd say it's going quite nicely

You are the cleanest, sweetest memory I
have of Venice.

How's Tony? Any better?

Oh, he's terrific.

Believe it or not, we were married two
weeks ago.

Oh, but I thought you said he was... Oh,
no, he's really changed.

That's all he thinks about.

Now he's a regular go -getter.

He's so horny. The only rest I get is
when I'm working.

You don't say.

Maybe he's taking vitamins.

Excuse me.

You can get dressed. We'll go on
tomorrow.

Hello?

Bill, my love.

It feels like an age since we last saw
each other.

When did you finish?

The Queen was there, too.

Bye.

Bye, Janet.

But then it was at Buckingham Palace.

Oh, Bill, please, you're not going
through the day step by step.

I know, Bill, in London it's daytime and
you're working and it's not the right

atmosphere.

But here it's night.

And I'm all alone.

Yes. Tell me about it.

Darling, go on. I love you.

Yes. You too?

Yes. Don't stop.

Don't. No, not yet.

Why are you staring at me that way?

I wasn't.

Well, I guess I might as well admit it.

It doesn't bother me. I think you're
nice.

You see, miss, I was born here on the
island, and I've seen lots of ladies

and go.

I drive to the Chez Fabien singles club
every day.

I've done for years.

The ladies I bring out are filthy rich,
ugly as hell, so I think they ought to

pay. But, lady, that stuff's not for
you, because you're first -class

I've never brought anyone out with your
looks.

Maybe you're crazy.

Why are you doing it?

Just curiosity.

New experience.

Good day, madam. I'll see to your
luggage.

Thank you.

I'm Diana Smith. Welcome to the villa.
Laura Rogers. How do you do?

Oh, Miss Rogers.

Your room is waiting for you.

Later this afternoon, you'll be able to
choose your partner.

Would you like something to drink? Go
ahead. I don't drink myself.

I'd prefer one of these cookies.

May I?

Oh, no, not one of those. They're made
with some rather special ingredients and

can have quite an effect on you. I'd
wait until... Until the right moment.

Yes, and now I'll show you to your room.
You know how our payment schedule works

here. Half an advance upon arrival and
the rest at checkout time.

Everything is covered in the bill,
including any accessories you might

during your stay here with us.

Accessories? Yes, of course, Miss
Rogers.

A lot of our clients like soft music,
costumes, instruments of every type. I'm

sure you know what I mean.

Of course, and special cookies, too.

Here's my down payment, Diana. The price
is a bit steep.

Absolutely justified considering our
high -class clientele. We offer total

discretion and maximum security, and
these things are cheap, naturally. All

personnel are of the highest quality.

I'm sure you'll be completely satisfied.

Here you can have whatever your heart
desires.

Most of our customers return every year.

Just a minute.

Not bad.

Hey.

Come here.

Turn around.

So you're number 11, right?

Delicious. Fantastic.

Except...

Be Tarzan, you Jane.

Yes, Tarzan, yes, yes. I take you,
woman.

I eat you.

Yes, yes, take me. I'm yours. Do what
you want with me. This is my jungle.

This is my kingdom.

I eat you.

I eat, woman.

Thank you.

Danny Turner.

What a beautiful flower.

Turn around.

Your bushes and flowers.

I've been waiting for you, Zorro.

Take your clothes off.

What are you hiding under that cape?

All right.

Come on, the bitch is in here.

She's not here.

Look in there.

Open the door, lady. Open it.

Come on, we know you're in there.

Open up.

Or you want us to bust it down.

She's asking for it.

Come on, let's have that camera lady.

Come on.

Okay, where'd you put it?

I don't know what you're talking about.

You don't, huh?

What's this?

Shit, what the fuck?

A simple deduction, I assure you. One of
my stallions reads your magazine all

the time.

An occupational hazard.

May I have my clothes back?

I'd like to get dressed.

I'll hang on to them as a precaution.

If you should go out like that, you
won't get very far.

I'll give you back everything once
you've handed over the roll of film. You

seen snooping around taking photographs.
I want you to know that we don't like

your kind here.

We can wait.

Meanwhile, we'll lock you in your room.
I really don't think you'll find it's

worth it.

You must understand that we have to
protect all the clients we have in the

world.

Suppose the role is nowhere to be found.

Will you have me killed?

Oh, no, we'll get it eventually.

And, Miss Rogers, you can't do anything
without proof.

We have our reputation to think of.

Our organization is an extremely
successful one. We have important people

take care of us. Guarantee us
protection.

I'd hate to think something might happen
to you.

Like being arrested for something you
were not involved in for instance drug

-running We have friends in this country
and New York's a long way off. I think

it over May I have a drink?

Would you like one too?

I've never smoked and I don't drink
alcohol And men I didn't ask you in here

discuss my private life. The only thing
I want from you is that roll of film

What's the hurry

Why can't we be friends?

You might change my mind.

You don't like men.

But love, just think.

Two female hands touching your skin,
searching you, knowing

the right places.

Here, taste this.

Go on, try it. Everything will seem more
beautiful, more exciting, more erotic.

What do you think I am? You make me feel
sick, you filthy whore. I'm not going

to listen to you.

I can't believe you're a virgin.

You wouldn't be bad in bed. Let's try.

Stop it!

Stop it!

Wait, I'm going to get the wrong

Welcome

back. Thank you

Unlock the door.

Unlock the door.

You were set by heaven. There's no doubt
about it.

Listen. I want an air ticket. And could
you buy me a dress?

I don't have any money, but... But I can
make it worth your while.

Hey, what are you doing?

And according to latest reports, there
have been violent clashes between blacks

and whites in the suburbs of
Johannesburg.

Possible revenge killing.

I kill.

Hey, Frankie.

I'm convinced I saw her in that film.

Are you sure it wasn't just a run -of
-the -mill pornographic film?

You can't get that kind of stimulation
from a professional actor.

Anyway, I'm interested in doing a story
on it.

Well, I think it could be very
dangerous, Emmanuel.

I hope you know what you're in for.

After all the things that have happened
to me, I've always managed to come back.

Hold on.

As your friend, let me give you some
good advice. Don't have anything to do

this story unless you're sure it's safe.

As your editor, I can give you a name
and an address. A guy called Ronnie.

He lives down at the East River on a
fishing boat.

He's an ex -cop who got kicked out of
the police department for accepting

and God knows what else.

He knows everything there is to know
about everybody.

And he doesn't give interviews, so
you'll have to have something to offer

All right? Okay, thanks. That's all I
need to know.

Not even the police wanted to have
anything to do with it.

These people are too powerful.

Let me tell you, they got a lot of
protection.

Who are these people?

No one's ever known who they are, miss.
And let me tell you, they're not the

kind of people you talk about. I know
they're not, Ronnie. All I want to know

is, are you prepared to help me?

I can't waste much time. I should have
been to the track already. There's a

horse that's a sure thing to win. Okay,
pretend you already made the bet and

that the horse did win.

Fifteen to one.

Twenty to one.

Well, you're looking to find facts.

You should go to Washington.

That's where you'll find the guys that
wallow in this filth and protect it.

All I need's a name.

A face.

You guys keep playing.

And you, what are you doing?

Why don't you come and play, huh?

Oh, I'm terribly sorry.

What the... I was looking for a seat and
I didn't see you. Oh dear, it's all

over your coat.

I'm sorry. Nothing to worry about. No
problem. Believe me. It'll all come out

the wash.

I'm really sorry.

What can I do for you to forgive me?

You could sit at my table.

I think I'd make a habit of spilling
food over people if I knew I'd meet

like you every time.

Just how do you mean that, young lady?
You're attractive, intelligent, full of

charm, and with a strong sense of
responsibility.

Is that what you really think?

I think you believe in the United
States.

Everybody in this country is so
concerned about what the world thinks of

When actually we should feel great pride
in what we've achieved.

For this is the greatest country in the
world.

Are there many people who share your
views?

Yes, but what about the young people of
today?

Their heads are stuffed full of crazy
ideas and a lot of nonsense.

What we really need right now is another
war.

Then they'd come back with their heads
screwed on straight.

Those who do come back.

And the ones who don't come back will
have given some meaning to their lives,

sacrificing themselves for their
country.

It's beautiful to hear you talk about
America like that.

You must love it very much.

Yes, it's a fantastic country.

But I must be boring you.

It's just that I enjoy talking to you.

Am I boring you?

Oh, no, not at all. It's not every day I
have the pleasure of meeting someone

like you. But now I have to say goodbye
to you. Why? You have a plane to catch?

No, I'm on vacation.

But you're an important man. You must
have a lot of commitments.

An important man decides for himself how
to fill his day.

Besides, you couldn't possibly leave me
now.

Why not?

You have to come with me to change the
coat you ruined for me. Oh, are you

inviting me to your house? I promise I
won't eat you up.

I should allow food to be spilt over me
more often.

You're beautiful.

I'm happy to hear you say that.

Are you really?

It's so seldom I find someone I enjoy
being with.

It's even more seldom for it to be
mutual.

You wouldn't put me on, would you?

Does it look like it?

Can't you feel me?

Yes, I can feel you.

I love it.

Tell me that you love it. Like crazy.

It's marvelous being with you like this.

I could do anything with someone like
you.

I just know it.

Even the strangest, most erotic things.

Tell me what you like. Talk to me.

I'll do anything you want me to.

Just let me know.

If we could... If we could try something
more stimulating.

Like something far out, forbidden.

I guess I didn't do too much for you,
did it?

I thought someone like you would have
something sensational and not phony like

that.

But it doesn't matter. Come here.

I want you to... Wait a second.

I think I have a film that you just may
find very interesting.

You said you wanted something really
strong.

Fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.

You're some kind of woman.

It's all because of you.

I never met anyone like you.

And those pictures, so real.

As if it was really happening.

Oh, it was all so awful.

But what a turnout.

Did you ever see anything like it?

In real life, I mean.

Never.

I shouldn't confess this to anyone.

But I feel you'd understand.

Sometimes I dream of actually living
something as cruel as that.

I think I must be a closet masochist.

It's the raw horror of it that excites
me.

You could make that dream come true.

Because things like that really do
happen.

Who knows where or when a normal middle
-class American girl like me could see

things like that?

They're just secret fantasies.

I'll make you experience those secret
fantasies.

But you may be scared.

And isn't being scared exciting?

Thank you.

Thank you.

What was it? A nightmare.

A dream.

I saw something horrible.

No, my dear.

It wasn't a dream.

Nor a nightmare.

Just a little powder.

LSD. Have you ever tried it before?

No, never.

So nothing was true.

No, Emmanuel.

But it was beautiful just the same.

You were very happy.

Yes, happy.

I really felt everything for the first
time in my life.

Then you'll come to see me again
sometime?

Of course, if you wish.

Whenever you want.

We'll pick up tomorrow where we left off
today.

All I did was waste my time.

I saw it all on a trip.

Sorry, Freddie.

Hi, you're talking about drugs.

Are you sure about that?

Yes.

And when I woke up, it was as if I'd had
a bad nightmare.

First ever failure of my career.

I should have listened to my friend, not
my editor.

There you are.

Look at these.

You really think a nightmare can be
photographed?

I don't believe it.

They're magnificent.

So it did happen after all.

That's enough to make you puke.

I'm not surprised.

You'll remember it as a nightmare.

You're lucky you woke up.

It has to be a first.

I'm afraid it's not a right.

It's a scoop of the century.

So everything I did wasn't in vain,
then. I can feel I accomplished

You'd be doing yourself a favor if you
just carried on thinking it was a

nightmare. Try and forget the whole
thing.

What do you mean by that?

You're not trying to tell me you're
scared of publishing. No, it's got

absolutely nothing to do with me. It's
just that for the first time since I've

been on this paper, the owner came down
here and specifically ordered me not to

publish any article based on your
photographs.

I know two ways about it. But don't
worry. I'll put it in the archives.

And at the first opportunity that comes
along, I'll publish it. All right?

Hey, wait a minute. I don't give a damn
about the archives.

Don't you realize I could have been
killed if we don't condemn these

publicly? Other girls are going to get
dragged into it, and we'll be...

I'm sorry,

Emmanuel, but listen. There's nothing I
can do about it. I don't like it any

more than you do.

Oh, come on.

You're sorry. Then why don't you do
something?

Hey, Freddy, you know what I'd like to
do? I'd like to blow this whole place

And that includes you, the paper, the
odors, the archives.

Now I'd better go.

Yeah, all right. You do that. You go
off, have yourself a few days' vacation.

When you come back, we'll discuss the
whole thing.

What, a few days?

I'm going to take a week off, then a
month, then a year, five years, ten

all my life if I feel like it. And then
I just slam the door and walk away from

it.

Goodbye, editor.

Goodbye, camera, zoom lens, highly
sensitive film, wide -angle lens, and

zoom.

And who's going to feed us now?

The people are beautiful and healthy
here. We'll eat like them and become

more beautiful and more healthy.

And I'm going to build you a nice bamboo
cabin.

Bamboo roof, bamboo walls.

That sounds beautiful.

I'm the happiest girl in the world.
Which world?

I don't know. I've forgotten.

And I'm going to forget everything else
that isn't necessary in this paradise.

Like words, success...

Whoa! What are you

doing?

Hey, take it easy.

It's forbidden.

They're sort of, uh, preparing you.

Preparing me? For what?

What are you laughing about?

Wait and see.

Well, yeah, what I wanted to tell you is
that I think I've sold you.

You what?

Yep, I've sold you for a splendid
collection of topical shells and for a

cup of, uh, local beer.

Good beer.

Very, very alcoholic.

You, my 12th wife, please, do sit.

Your wife?

Yes. That's the reason why His Majesty
fought you. He's a very jealous husband.

But you... Don't worry. I don't think
anyone would consider this wedding

at least outside of this island.

What does he want me to do?

Well, I don't know.

Move the island, give birth to his
children.

Unfortunately, I won't be here.

Or perhaps that's fortunate. They've
asked me to leave after the celebration.

What celebration?

All my children.

Thirty -two.

Maybe more.

Now, your children.

Otherwise, leave me.

And a celebration?

Start without.

Celebration's good.

Your celebration.

What's going on?

All right, everybody in line, come on.

You're ready?

Let's get started.

I'd like a very slow pan here.

Start on that hut over there and then
move to the tree.

Yes, yes, that's it.

For all of you, that's right. A problem,
John.

The natives absolutely don't want to
dance nude.

What the hell's all this mess here?

I don't know.

Must be doing a film.

Paradise Lost.

Listen, let's get out of here. I don't
want to be hired as a damn extra.
