- Good morning, Mr. Moutafis. - Hey, dear police Captain. What's up?

Is it that unfortunate day again for your car payment?

What can one do?

You buy yourself a wreck on 4 wheels...

and you almost quit smoking to pay it off.

Well... Blame it on the system, Captain.

Ripping the people off through taxes and loaning frauds and multinationals.

But you, police officers, shouldn't be complaining.

It's you who's backing up this whole system!

Moutafis, what exactly is this?

Am | getting an installment receipt or an instruction on politics?

Nobody move! This is a holdup! Hands in the air!

You, too!

Further back! Move it!

Move!

I told you to move, damn it!

Nobody move!

Move your hands fast, damn you!

Faster!

Not done yet?

These, too!

And these!

Gol

Ladies and gentlemen...

We all know exactly what was accomplished...

The press, the radio & the TV network...

.«» have been resonant with her amazing achievement for a week now.

Traffic controller Daisy Alexiou...

... Managed to prevent at the very last moment...

the execution of a wounded officer...

She chased down the robber, engaged in a gunfight with him...

.. wounded him, arrested him...

.. as Well as returned the stolen money to the bank.

And now, quite reasonably, | believe...

.. this courageous girl is standing among us, really excited to be here...

.. and about to be honored by the state.

The state believing...

«. that the deed of this brave young woman...

... constitutes for the newly-founded Women's Hellenic Police Force...

.. a rare exemplary model of courage...

.. altruism and profound sense of duty...

«. is today awarding her through me and following a special decree issue...

.. the Distinguished Service Medal.

+. as well as exceptionally accepting her to the Police Lieutenant's Academy,

Worthy of it!

NARCOTICS PROSECUTION BUREAU

Holy cow, what is this place? A police department or Hollywood?

Yes?

Captain, Lieutenant Daisy Alexiou to see you, Sir.

Let her in.

Police Lieutenant Daisy Alexiou, reporting for duty. My respects.

Well?

Do | look familiar?

I'm trying to remember.

Surely with all these marks I look like the Loch Ness monster, eh?

Oh no, what are you saying?

I've seen you before but I'm not sure where and when.

The bank robbery.

You, standing... me, horizontally on the floor.

But of course! Captain Angelou!

Marcos Angelou. The man who owes you his life.

Come now, you're exaggerating.

Not at all. Just stating facts.

Had you entered the bank asecond later,

.. that punk would have blown my brains out.

Welcome aboard, Daisy.

The Service and I, personally, are proud to have you.

The chief and | have decided to give you the command of the female department.

All issues related to drugs and women is under your jurisdiction.

So, what do you say? Do you want to see your fiefdom?

~ Hello all. - Our respects.

Fellas...

This is the new head of the female department,

Police Lieutenant Daisy Alexiou.

limagine you've heard what kind of a cannon shot she is, right?

That's why | want you to treat her with due respect...

and help her succeed in the difficult task we've charged her with.

As Police Sergeant of this department, I think you shouldn't worry, Captain.

For a cannon like this we would even give our lives...

At least the male officers of this department would.

The guy that's already flirting you...

«. Is Sergeant Mimikos, your right arm.

He's sure to love you. Take your precautions.

If she manages to, commander.

| hope she does...

| mean, the girl has to save her own skin!

| think you should make a speech now, eh?

First of all, stop playing statues.

At ease and have a smoke.

No drugs though, eh?

I'm no good with speeches.

| will be brief.

This narcotics plague has gone too far.

It is a disgusting disease, that kills humans and rots society.

We all know this.

Where drugs step in, life dies.

The joy of man is wasted for evermore.

No more ambitions.

No dreams.

No purpose exists.

Finally, nothing remains standing.

| guess you know | personally requested to get into the narcotics department.

| did so...

... aS to strike evil in its source.

You might as well know this. We'll fight day and night.

Not through words or announcements.

| know this will inconvenience many of you.

But this plague cannot be stricken from inside the offices.

The Police!

Why is your hand trembling?

Excitement, | guess...

... for this is our third time out together.

I'm really very excited being with you.

| feel really well but...

Oh but you're quite a talker today, aren't you?

All right, Marcos. I feel nice, too.

But now | want you to talk about yourself.

You've got a cold, you're hoarse, that's OK, it's will soon be over.

But what's with your hand?

It's the first time I've seen it trembling like this.

- It happens a lot lately. - Why?

It’s a souvenir from that bank.

It's like the bullets hit a nerve or something.

Are you in pain?

It really messes me up when it happens.

lalso feel dizzy. Sometimes, the world darkens around me.

What do the doctors say?

They say... it may go away.

Just "may"...

- Did you report it? - Where?

- To the department. - What for?

So they can dump me out to retirement?

All my life, the Service was my home.

My family.

Everything.

I've had nothing else in the world.

I've been told that.

What?

To you, nothing is above the Service and your duty.

This was long ago, Lieutenant.

Now, something's come up... and risen above everything.

- Any news? Has she been found? - Not yet.

You're driving me crazy! What did you tell me on the phone?

- Look, a drug addict killed herself at midnight. - Why?

- Looks like she didn't have her fix. - So?

- We called Daisy. She came here, got angry and started yelling. - Why?

We are murdering all these women, she screamed. Because we allow...

.. drug pushers near the whores’ areas of work and they sell drugs.

Didn't you tell her our people are watching these areas closely?

| did but she was furious.

She said it's idiotic having policemen watch over whores...

Pushers spot them right away. We should put female cops instead.

That's too much!

Try those bitches further down then. We don't like you!

Go away! Go away, you moron! Get out of here!

Go away, miser!

The hell with you all jerks!

Hi, beautiful! What's up?

What's the price like?

Friendly enough, boys, five brown ones.

- Five brown, you said? - That's friendly enough.

Five both or five each?

Hey, bro! Don't gimme that. Want a conversation or what?

| said 5.000 each, prices are fixed. Take it or leave it!

OK, beautiful, bark no more!

You're fine, we dig you...

». but FIVE thousand? Don't you think it's too much?

Can't help you any, folks, Market prices, you see.

Next time I'll ask you for TEN!

Off we go! Off we go!

- Hey, momma! Like some adventure? «If you got 4.000 to spare...

4.000? Just who do you think you are honey? Sophia Loren?

You like it, you take it. That's the admission fee.

I can do without it!

Hey, honey! How about a discount to stir up trade?

Lay off, now, git! No discount. You think I'm selling tablecloths?

But 4,000 is just too much, dearie. It's practically a theft!

Tell that to the inflation rate. Know where the price of petrol's gone?

You're right about petrol. Sure thing.

All |have's 12 hundred.

| only had two tricks tonight.

This time you showed up too early, boys.

OK, Soula.

Next time it's plus eight hundred.

Done.

Soula's a trusted person, ain't she?

Thanks.

~ Happy trippin’. - So long.

What's up, lady? Is this a review or what?

Boys, I've been straight for 3 days now.

Got a little something for me? I sure could use some!

We haven't spotted you round here before. You're fresh recruit?

Sort of.

Well, what's it gonna be, mates? Do | get any?

- What's your name, doll? - Vana.

All right, Vana. How much do you have on you?

Four thousand and six hundred.

Good for you, dudes?

It’s a deal. Get in.

Why in?

Don't worry, ma‘am, we won't eat you. We only keep a small quantity on us.

The rest is kept in a car parked further away.

If you're out, just take your dough back. We're gentlemen, not punks.

~ OK, I'll come. ~ The door.

What gives, dudes? | don't see no car here.

Tell you what...

Before we go get the stuff, we were thinking of some lovemaking for us all.

In brief, that is. You mind?

| thought we had an agreement!

| came with you for a fix, am | right?

It's all right, Ms. Orgy-girl.

No need to get upset! You'll have your fix.

But first, you must have us too.

In fact, | believe we should combine it with a group striptease.

Maestro, avanti!

How about it, boys? Am | getting the fix or do | walk?

You had the hots for it earlier, remember? Unless you were putting us on.

Naah, she looks like a nice girl.

| think the chick's got no use for a fix, she is just kidding us tonight.

| don't think so. You're distrustful.

Am I? | also have this bad habit of watching TV.

And this pretty little face, no matter how plastered it may be tonight...

| remembered it the minute | saw it.

They once hang a medal on you, doll, didn't they?

It so happens | was watching that channel, understand?

Acar!

A car's coming!

Are these yours, ma'am?

- One moment, don't forget your coat. - Keep it. Bring it to the office tomorrow.

All right, Captain, Sir!

Many thanks, too.

Although | haven't figured out how come you showed up down there.

The boys told me and | was worried too much. | looked up and down for you.

And | got word that these punks drag girls quite often in that area.

| heard your gunshots and | was lucky.

Wrong. | was the lucky one.

Me too, Daisy.

They would have raped you and choked you to death on the spot.

A thing like that would be really painful for me. Do you understand?

So far I've been a loner.

But lately, I've found some interest in life.

It's been filled with the beauty of your presence.

So you better watch it, all right?

OK, now. Go get some rest.

Goodbye.

Freeze!

Freeze!

Stop!

Stand still!

Want some coffee?

The cigarette's too much already.

These marks in your arms, what the fuck are they?

Mosquito bites.

Yeah, right.

And | say you're a junkie.

And when you run out of money, you break and enter for your fix.

You haven't had any recently and your whole body's shaking, am I right?

What kind of a joke are you?

You leap down the stairs, use a gun, you're from a TV serial or what?

I'm a police officer.

You're kidding me.

Fuck me, | ran into a Lieutenant!

Women are making progress.

Just my luck.

No one becomes a junkie because of bad luck.

What's your name?

Bekiris.

Tasos Bekiris.

Ever been in prison?

No, I'm about to lose my virginity to you.

Has it been long since you built this habit?

- Break-ins? - Dope.

In a few days, it'll be one full year.

We'll have to find a cake with one candle on it.

Narcotics Department!

Is that where you'll bury me so | can get better?

You believe this?

- You're a real mess. ~ I'm fine.

If | let you go, will you promise me something?

I know...

You will ask me to give up on this crippling thing.

You treated me real nice.

| don't want to give you any fake promises.

You can at least promise you'll try.

That's enough for you?

You look like a man to me, And | think you'll keep your promise.

I'd like you to fight.

All right...

You have my word.

You're a strange one.

I don't understand why you did that.

For some first aid.

No...

If | take it I'll go straight for white stuff.

Come.

Goodbye, mate. Good luck.

Goodbye, lieutenant.

- Hi boss, am | late? ~ Hey!

Sorry I'm late. But let's not forget that as a woman | have a pan to mend, too!

Even with no mending, you're a beauty. Come on in.

What's wrong?

Lately you've changed.

Is anything the matter?

No, what could the matter be?

Everything is as usual, nothing's changed.

Something's changed in me, though.

Meaning?

Look...

I've never been ace with words. | will tell you in plain language.

love you, Daisy. | want you to believe that.

You can't imagine how much.

It seems incredible to me, too...

... but it's the truth.

And that's why...

I mean | thought...

since we're on the same job, and we're a match...

.. and we get two salaries...

Perhaps we could make a home for the two of us.

What do you say?

Do you like the idea?

Now look...

You know the esteem | hold you in and and my affection for you, don't you?

But what you just said... | wasn't prepared for it, you see?

Give me some time to think about it, to...

That's it.

OK, lieutenant.

You're running behind a little... but I'll wait.

Now, good night.

And don't get soaked till you reach the door, OK?

Good night. Thank you.

What, you're trying to commit suicide?

Stay here a bit longer and you'll surely get pneumonia.

Come inside.

Drink your coffee, it'll do you good.

Have you eaten at all today?

Since that day, have you tried fighting it? You know what I'm talking about.

Do you see any marks? | did it for you. Because you asked me to.

And this other thing?

You're following me wherever | go, can you tell me why?

When I'm close to you | feel stronger.

Every time | felt | was going down...

I'd run off and come to you.

If you want me to stop following you say one word and I'll disappear.

I will stop bothering you, | will depart from your life.

After all, you're a policewoman while I'm just a punk, a junkie.

Don't say that!

| don't want to hear it.

You are not bothering me. I don't know if I want you out of my life.

Hi there!

Hello, how's with you?

What's with the brooding again? What's the matter?

Don't mind me. Everything is fine.

Sit down.

No, hold it.

Lately whenever | see you, you're stooping and looking desperate.

Something is the matter, isn't it?

Sit down Vana, don't fucking stand over me. | said | was just fine.

| don't buy this.

It's that crippling thing again, isn't it?

Don't mention crippling, you hear?

If you must know, your attitude pisses me off.

What attitude?

Every time we meet, you're late as if | were a low-life.

You can't be serious! I've only been late once or twice.

At least / have tons of work to do.

~ Whereas I'm a lazy junkie, acripple, right? - Tasos!

- You just said that, didn't you? - | didn't mean that. - Yes, you did!

That's just how you see me.

A drug addict.

Piece of junk in the bottom of a trash can.

That's exactly why...

To avoid being seen with me you drag me around all these deserted pits of Athens.

Because you love me, you dig me...

but we don't want any stains on our uniform either, right Lieutenant?

Forgive me.

At times | don't know what I'm saying.

But every time you're late, | fear you won't come again and I get desperate.

Fight it.

Fight it, you hear?

All this desperation and anger, it's because you haven't been cured yet.

It's because that bug is still in your blood, tormenting you.

But I'm on your side, I'm standing by you, you hear?

Remember this and take courage to keep fighting. Until you win.

Promise?

- Is your boss downstairs? - Ms. Daisy?

Yes.

She's in the office. She's been interrogating a stoned girl since dawn.

So how is she? Is she well?

These last few days, she seems really angry and concerned.

As if looking out for some disaster.

Disaster?

Yes?

At last, this lady has spoken! Do you remember this lady?

But of course, she's an old customer.

So what did she say while talking?

She buys her fixes from Scarface and his gang.

Ever since our raid, he's fled Syngrou Ave and moved to a new spot.

- Where's that? - In cabaret lowa.

My every stroke annoys you...

.. my every word makes you dizzy...

.. and my hottest kiss...

.. that used to arouse you...

... it only makes you angry...

Why are you so cross...

.. With my loving you so much...

a. 80 Cross...

... With all my crazy worship...

.. my desire and yearning for you...

... my constant need to talk to you...

.. my caressing and kissing you...

.. my shadow-like following you...

.. Why are you So cross...

.. as to hurt me...

.. a& to kill me...

.. Why are you So cross...

You're avoiding my gaze...

.. turning away from my touch...

.. and when | ask if you love me...

.. you never answer these days...

.. and you smoke so nervous...

Why are you so cross...

Run! It's the cops!

Freeze!

To the corner, everyone!

Can't you hear, are you that high?

You... In here?

What happened, why are you so messed up?

You're back in these joints, then?

Walk!

Wake up!

And start running, you hear?

Leave and never show your face to me again! Leave!

Go away!

Pity... You've gone back to what you used to be.

Yes, Daisy...

| should've known.

Sooner or later, you'd go back to your addiction.

| tried hard, Daisy.

I struggled too much...

I can see that.

So what are you doing here?

| wanted to thank you.

What for?

You did so much for me.

| will never forget that.

Will that be all?

| want you to know | really loved you.

Cut it out, for god's sake!

| will always love you, Daisy.

Then why have we come to this, eh?

Why didn't you make an effort, why did you quit trying?

I didn't quit trying. You know very well how much | tried.

You didn't try at all. If you had tried for real, you would've won.

And how would you know?

Tell me, how would you?

Ever tried Big H?

Have you ever felt heroin running through your veins?

Know how painful it can get when you need a fix?

Your whole body trembles, you hear? Your blood tingles.

Your guts convulse, your tongue feels sticky.

It's summer yet you're shivering.

It's winter but you're burning in the wildest hell.

You're dizzy, you fade out. Your sight gets blurred.

The world is jumping about...

It's filled with monsters...

.» flies, mosquitoes, gnats, constantly attacking you from everywhere...

» and you're spinning around like a frightened little child!

You're squirming and thrashing yourself on the floor, crying out for help!

But help never comes from anywhere.

Only the Police does...

Some ignorant people like you...

who want to cure a disease they know nothing about.

That'll be all.

Thanks.

Find someone who's worthy of you.

Get on with your life.

| must be going now.

Sure, run along. Go find those waiting to sell you your death.

You got tremors again.

I've only come for this.

This is your home, remember?

Yes...

But | pay the rent with your money.

Wanna drink?

You know what | want.

You could try being less cynical.

There was a time you would tell me that you liked me and loved me.

Back then, | believed you were a woman like all other women.

Which means... what do you believe | am now?

Look...

| didn't come here to quarrel, Katia.

You came to get your fix. | know very well why you came.

But since you need me that much, why not try to be a little nice at least?

Why have you lately been... so gross with me?

Because | detest you!

Watch your mouth, you hear?

That's what I'm doing. | detest you and | hate you.

You're responsible for the mess I'm in.

Then why do you come begging every time?

- | can't do otherwise. - And who's keeping you from quitting?

My addiction!

That bug you planted in me to keep me when you realized I'd leave you...

... making a hostage of me, you slut!

- How dare you, beast? You scummy pothead! - You made me a pothead!

Take your hands off me, animal! Scum!

I'm gonna kill you, thug!

Good morning, Daisy. Come down now!

Get your coat and come with mel! You too, Dimitra! Hurry!

What happened?

Some maid went to clean a villa today...

and found a body under the couch.

So, what's it to us? We're not CSI!

The victim was a drug addict.

What's wrong?

The body was found here?

Well, if they've sent us here this is it. Come on, let's go.

That's enough, go now!

Go, | said!

Enough with these photos!

Hey, what?

What's with you? | thought of you as more cool-headed.

It was a momentary reaction!

If you're not well, I'll have a car take you home.

No, it's over now.

Come. Let's go in.

Hi all!

Hello, Marcos. What happened? You're late!

The traffic, the streets were jammed... What's new? Any conclusions yet?

Well, look... The victim was a junkie.

His arm was like a chintz of needle holes.

Looks like he had an affair with a woman and did something to her.

Possibly, cheating on her with some other woman.

So yesterday morning, this other woman opened the window, came in the house...

they grabbed each other by the hair,

«. She shot him and sent him to push up the daisies.

Are you sure it was a woman?

The guy's face was all nail-scratched, as if he'd had a fight with a cat!

What gun was he shot with?

~ Here lies a mystery. - Meaning?

The dame did him with a revolver same as those we use in the police force.

Any fingerprints?

An abundance of them, God bless us!

On handles, windows, on glasses and bottles...

We're gonna grab her alright. She doesn't stand a chance, that tigress!

Have you met Lieutenant Alexiou?

No, just from television.

But taking a closer look now... the girl must be ill right now.

What's the matter, young lady? Why are you so pale?

It's nothing...

I'd never seen a dead man before, so...

Captain! Captain!

Sorry to interrupt, it's good news! - Let's hear it.

Yesterday when the shot was heard, a worker saw a woman...

in a light blue shirt and a grey skirt move around the house and enter.

- Where is he? - Outside. - Bring him in right now!

The girl! What's wrong, child?

She wasn't feeling well today.

I'll take her home, don't worry.

Drink this. It'll do you good.

Today your hands are trembling more than mine, eh?

- | don't know what happened to me. ~ Feeling better now?

- A little... «Good.

So... What about that witness?

| just got an update call.

Saying?

Looks like he saw the murderess, as she was entering the villa.

Tall, with a nice body, blond hair...

.. alight blue shirt and grey skirt...

But he couldn't see her face, he was far away and it was still dawn.

Look...

| have too much to do at the office.

But you're staying here.

You'll spend all day in bed and you won't move an inch, all right?

Your word?

Finally!

Rest!

Lately, you've been overloaded.

Taken on society salvation all by yourself, have you?

‘Bye now.

- Well? ~ You were right.

This thingy was intentionally made with two bottoms.

The space between them has been used for stashing heroin.

- Are you certain? - Without a shadow of a doubt!

Good morning. Do you sell these statuettes?

| broke this and | want to replace it.

I'm afraid we don't. First time I see one like it. Where did you find it?

- Excuse me, I'd like to take up some of your time. - Yes, please?

Where can | get one like this? | broke it. Perhaps you could help me?

Not in our store, anyway.

Some time ago, some guys brought us these to sell.

But the boss didn't like their faces, so we didn't work with them.

Who were they, you know them? Or have their address by any chance?

Address?

INTER ART INC. Manufacturing Imports Trading

Folk Art Items ATHENS HAMBURG LONDON

- Good morning, I'm looking for some help. - What about?

Look, this statuette was a gift from my husband.

It was of oriental art, great piece but | broke it.

I was passing by and thought... Perhaps | might find an identical one

«. in your warehouse? He'll be so sad if | tell him | broke it.

Ask madame.

~ Hello, - | heard what you said.

Do you perhaps have the broken pieces of the statuette?

Yes, right here.

The bottom of the statuette is missing, do you have it?

No, I only kept a random piece, | threw the rest of them away.

So, can | find an identical one, what do you think?

Well... we never import this particular model.

But we could possibly check with other importers and perhaps find one like it.

Would you leave us your name and address, so we can send it to you?

| don't mean to trouble you, I come this way quite often.

When would you like me to come again?

You'll have to give us a few days. | don't even know if | can find the importer.

All right then, I'll drop by in a week.

Thank you, goodbye! - Farewell.

Good morning, I'm Lieutenant Alexiou. | want a small favor real quick.

This is a traffic ticket given to a driver, for violating a red light.

The driver's name is Tasos Bekiris.

Here's the number of the car he was driving when he ran the red light.

I need you to check the car's folder and give me the owner's name, right now.

The car owner must have been somebody else.

You're right.

It wasn't his car. It belonged to a certain lady.

- A lady, you said? ~ Yes.

Katia Theohari. 12 Ekatis Str, Kifissia.

Scarface, you're late. | don't like waiting and you know it.

I'm sorry madame, I did not do it on purpose.

My car's a bit of Methuselah, hysterical too. It often plays tricks on me.

The merchandise we've been expecting arrives at the usual spot, Sunday at dawn.

Some 20 crates of folk art items.

You will all be there.

You'll load them on the truck chop-chop and leave, that's all.

I remind you that the merchandise is exceptionally expensive this time.

If anything goes wrong, you will shoot to kill. Understood?

One more thing.

Because the merchandise is real big...

it will be accompanied by the connection personally.

You, Scarface, will be holding 20 million cash in a bag.

You'll deliver the cash to the connection in person. To no one else, understand?

Do you know what means of transport they're using for the merchandise?

You'll be there and you'll see.

Good morning. May | come in?

How are we doing today?

Just fine.

I was getting ready to start for the office.

Did you spend the whole day in bed yesterday, as we agreed?

Of course! That's why I've recovered.

- Strange. - What is?

| called you twice yesterday but I got no answer.

I was probably asleep. I sleep like a log, you know.

The strange thing is that | dropped by in the afternoon myself...

I rang your bell many times and still got no answer.

What can I say, | didn't hear the bell.

If | had, | would have let you in.

So... How are things going? - What things?

The investigation about that crime.

We've been running like crazy.

All our efforts are focusing on finding the woman that whacked him.

Is there any hope?

Yes...

Something important came up yesterday.

Like what?

We presented a photo of the victim on tv...

and appealed to anyone who had seen the victim with a woman...

... to present themselves to the Police.

And what happened?

Late at night, a lady called me.

Ten days ago, she walked her dog in the square in front of Lycabettus Theatre.

Said she saw the victim with a woman.

They were having a quarrel and she actually slapped him.

And she remembers what she looked like?

Of course. She watched them from a small distance.

This means we're getting close, Daisy.

She'll be under our thumb in a few days.

Do you know what's happening at the office right now?

Of course not.

The lady with the dog is waiting for you to take down her statement.

That's why | dropped by, to take you with me.

Get dressed, then. Let's not waste any time.

Yes, right away.

Marcos? ~ Yes?

You better run along, I'll take my own car.

Why?

| have to go somewhere after work, I need the car, you see?

Go, I'll be right there.

All right. Don't be late!

The lady's waiting for you, OK?

- Shall | come in? - Sure, she's fine! It's nothing really.

I'll be back.

How are we doing?

Fine. I'm still in one piece.

- Strange... - What is?

Dunno... I'm at a loss, sort of.

Not sure I can figure you out.

Lately, you've been really weird.

What's the matter?

You want to kill yourself?

How did you draw that conclusion?

What am | to say, Daisy?

You're an ace driver.

Yet you rise in the early morning crashing your car onto the posts?

This can happen to anyone. Haven't you ever crashed your car?

Yeah OK, there's more to it.

Lately, you've been a riddle.

Everything about you is strange! | don't know what to think...

OK, you used to like going out with me, now you're avoiding me... - Me?

Don't lie, there is no need to.

You have the right to do so. But there's even more!

You've always been fearless.

But the other day, looking at that druggie's corpse you fainted.

You should've rested all day yesterday but you were out instead!

~No, Marcos, I... ~ Stop, | said! No more lies between us!

Yesterday you were an awful mess yet you got up and roamed all day long.

Where did you go? Why? What's going on?

How about today, few hours earlier? What was that?

You didn't see the traffic signs ahead of you? Is that possible?

Daisy...

If something is troubling you, please try to share it with me.

I've never stopped loving you.

I've never stopped believing in you, not for a moment.

Just give me a chance to help you, will you?

Don't you have anything to tell me?

After this crash, | can eat a horse.

I'd like us to go somewhere, have lunch and take a stroll.

I'm glad we're together again.

Because lately, you'd dumped me into the trash can.

Please, don't see it that way. I had no choice. | was in trouble.

Anything serious?

No... I've only been in real trouble once in my life.

Look...

You've been more than a friend to me, so | want to be honest with you.

| loved a person very much once. It was my first and only time.

It's already been two years I've broken up with that person.

- Do you still love him? - | don't know. | really don't know.

At times | feel as if he never left from my life. | feel him standing next to me.

Like a shadow that dominates my existence.

He must have been a great man, eh?

He was strange.

Great beyond belief but at the same time horrible beyond belief.

Sensitive like a child and hard as a rock.

One day to my utter disamy, | found out he was a drug dealer.

Drugs... That's when | started hating them.

He was in trouble, they were after him.

I tried to save him, change him...

.. keep him close to me.

Are you all right?

Yes, just a couple of scratches.

I'm so happy! But... what kind of a place is this?

Just an old pit, belongs to a friend.

What's wrong?

I'm leaving Daisy. Leaving.

What did you say?

And where to?

Wherever.

I'm being chased.

The circle's closing in on me, | really must leave, | have no choice.

- You can stay and give yourself up. - Give myself up?

To whom? - To the police!

Are you crazy?

They're after me for drug trade, don't you know that?

You will stop trading.

And this will change things?

No, | can't do that, Daisy.

Once they lay their hands on me, I'll get a nice ten-year sentence.

If you give yourself up, you'll only get 2 or 3 years.

They'll go by, Nikos. They'll soon be over.

And then we'll start a new life. A humane, honest life...

- Cut it out. ~ Niko!

| said cut it out!

"An honest life"...

Sell that elsewhere!

This rotten world is not divided into the "honest" and the "dishonest"...

but into those who have everything and those who have nothing.

Honest life is the hash the trampled ones are fed, so as to not riot.

So as to not claim their life share that the few have robbed them of.

The savvy ones!

I'm off, sweetie.

I'll remember you.

Tell me where you'll be.

I'll write to you...

I'll come and...

So long, Daisy.

It's a small world, right?

We may meet again some day.

He left and he disappeared. I never saw him again.

| don't know if he's dead or alive.

| don't know if I've ever stopped loving him.

Then find out and let me know.

It'll matter a lot to me.

To me, too.

| must finally grasp what's happening to me.

Then do so...

I'll be waiting.

And now...

You ‘Il stay right here...

.. While | grab us two cups of coffee.

All right.

Why are you staring at me like that?

Excuse me, can | go now? I'm worn out.

OK, madam. Thank you for helping me.

You can go, too, I need you no more.

Daisy! What is it, dear? What happened?

This company... Inter Art...

Have you discovered the owner? l asked you to, yesterday...

Sure, I've sent a lawyer to the chamber of commerce.

He should call any minute now.

What's happening, dear? I'm your cousin, | should know.

A real nightmare, Katy.

| was involved with someone. He was a drug addict.

You, with a drug addict? Are you out of your mind?

| was, obviously!

I wanted to help him escape his suffering.

$0?

Turned out there was another woman in his life.

One day she killed him. No trace of hers was found in his room, though.

Only my fingerprints were!

God, no!

Ever since that day...

the entire police force is searching high and low for his last mistress.

The one who left her fingerprints in his room...

And this woman is me, you realize that?

So what will you do? You must prove your innocence.

That's what I'm trying to do. To find her before they find me!

Have you made any progress?

From a ticket | found in his trash can...

| learned the guy drove a car owned by a woman named Katia Theoxari.

Good.

The woman who killed him, was pushing him heroin...

in the two-level bottom of some Middle East statuettes.

These statuettes are brought in the country by a group of smugglers

Now listen carefully.

If that woman, Theoxari, who lent him her car,

... has anything to do with those drug smugglers...

.. then she gave him the heroin! And she did him in!

Then my search will be over!

| will have reached her before the others reach me!

Yes? Yes, it's me!

Yes, tell me the bottom line!

Who runs the company?

What's the name in the charter?

Yes, OK Stavros, thanks.

See you tomorrow.

Principal shareholder of Inter Art, head of its board, as well as manager...

.. IS a Woman named Katia Theoxari.

You are on the right path, girl!

The right path...

Thank you. Now, leave.

Let me stay, Daisy.

No, Katy, leave, Stay out of this.

Just go!

So it happened exactly as | expected.

You came all by yourself.

You're very brave, Lieutenant.

You're brave, too.

Or else you wouldn't be expecting me with the lights on and the doors open.

All alone, too! Like you, dear girl. I've sent the servants away.

Have you come to arrest me? - Exactly.

- Do you have any evidence? - Enough to lock you up for life.

~| don't see you drawing a gun. -| don't have one.

I want you alive, Katia. | want you to rot in a cell until you're aged.

You must've loved him very much.

I don't hate you because you killed him.

| hate you for making him a drug addict.

You're wrong! | didn't make him a junkie.

| found him so. | took him in from the streets like this.

And | loved him.

I spent years struggling to save him. Listen...

You know why | awaited you here tonight with the lights on and the doors open?

Because | can't...

| don't want to live without him.

- So why did you kill him? ~| didn't mean to!

He beat me, he tried to strangle me! I couldn't control myself!

Tell that to the court, not me.

You're wrong.

There will be no court for me.

What did you say?

There's no reason anymore...

It's no use at all...

And now, fight for your life!

I didn't mean to kill you.

| wasn't even aiming at you.

| wanted you to kill me.

Hence the lights...

... the open doors...

Now, we're both losers.

I'll be gone...

.. and you'll go to prison.

How come you're here?

You acted so strange that | started suspecting you, Daisy.

So | staged your meeting with the lady at the luna-park,

and since then I've been watching your every move.

| didn't kill her, | hope you saw that.

I didn't but | believe you.

It's her gun.

It fired while we were fighting, I never touched it!

OK, Daisy. If you say so, it must be so.

But what's important is that the jury believe you too.

Jury?

What have they got to do with me?

She was a drug smuggler!

She'd been keeping Bekiris for years.

And when he tried to leave her, she killed him with the gun that got her killed.

I've got evidence for all these. | came here to arrest her, you understand?

| understand, Daisy...

... but now you have to understand something, too. - What?

After this scandal has blown out...

the police won't be able to keep you.

They'll take your uniform back.

Nobody except you, knows of my involvement in this story.

Since I'm innocent and you believe it, you should therefore keep quiet.

| have to do my duty, Daisy.

I'm taking you to the District Attorney.

Perhaps you want to handcuff me, too?

Of course not.

Shall we go, then?

If you think so.

Let me just call and notify forensics.

Don't answer it, wait!

- Miss Katia? ~ Who is it?

Scarface. Calling you from Galatsi, I'm up at the pit.

- So, how are things? - Good. The merchandise has arrived.

We're loading the crates, we'll be gone in a quarter or so.

It's all going fine.

All right, see you in the morning. Good night.

Better say "good morning", madam. It's already dawn.

What's going on?

Is your car outside?

Yes.

Can we make it to Galatsi in 15 minutes?

Why?

It was this bastard, Scarface. He thought he was talking to Katia.

They're loading crates of drugs only just delivered!

They're leaving in 15 minutes. It's heroin, Marcos!

Must be in large quantity! Hurry or we'll miss it!

Let's not waste time, then you can take me to the DA. | won't flee!

Calling central.

Central and all units. This is an emenrgency.

Those receiving me, reply.

1-2-3... 1-2-3...

1-2-3... Damned thing!

This shit was defective from the start!

| wanted to ask for some extra help.

Now, beware...

Look this way!

Right now you're off duty and in custody.

Whatever happens at the pits you're not to be involved, you hear?

But since any of these scums may try to do you, there's a second gun in here.

Also three spare magazines.

You've fired this one before, eh? In the bank, that robbery.

You'll only use it if you absolutely have to.

Otherwise take cover in the seats and keep out of my way.

It's an order, understand?

Light me a cigarette.

Watch out!

What? You're having a fit again?

- It's all right, no problem. = Don't lie!

You're sweating. Your right hand is shaking awfully.

You've told me you get dizzy and your sight's blurred.

Stop before it's too late, you hear?

Hands off, stay out of this!

For God's sakes, Marcos! You can't hold a gun in this condition!

It's suicide, don't you see?

Too late to start caring about me.

You're wrong, | never stopped.

Scarface, the crates are almost done. How about taking off?

Hold your horses. We got the stuff, they need to get their money, too.

Their contact is about to show up for payment. - Isn't he late?

Yeah, this dude's a tough nut, cunning in self-protection.

He shows up late and whence you least expect him to.

Calling Eagle!

Eagle?

You're receiving me? Tell me if you are. Holding.

Yes, | can hear you. Very well. Goon.

| have arrived and everything is all right. I'm descending.

The dude...

DANGER EXPLOSIVES

We're almost there.

Welcome.

Hi there.

Are we done?

We're done and have been expecting you. You were a tad late this time.

The money.

It's here.

Twenty?

~ Twenty million, all counted. - Let me see.

All set?

All set.

Say hi to your boss.

All right.

Scarface! Scarface!

Hold it!

- What is it? - Acar is coming to the pit!

- What car? - It's Angelou's car!

- Head of the Narcotics Bureau? - Let's scram! Get in the car and leave!

If we leave, there is no other exit, we'll run into them.

There must be more of them coming! They'll slaughter us! - So what do we do?

Back to your posts.

Savas, | told you to set up the explosives just in case. Did you? - | did!

Takes a match to blow up the lot! - Fine! When | signal, ignite the fuse!

~ Done! - I'll blow them to pieces as they go in.

You, get in position round the car! When | start, shoot to kill. Go!

You should leave, Sir. Get on the helicopter and disappear.

- Not before you see something really interesting. -Like what?

This!

You! Get away from the fuses!

The car's getting closer!

PETROLEUM

I said, don't get out.

- Marcos, you had a fit! You can't see! ~ Get off my back!

Nikos!

You, Daisy?!

How are you getting on?

I'm with the police now.

Pity you're not in uniform.

It'll suit you.

I'm in such a hurry...

| have to leave you...

You know him?

He was the one | told you about at the luna park.

The drug dealer...

One of those... criminals.

He never was a criminal.

He's Police Major John Vagos, a Greek-American.

Attached to the United Nations Commission on Narcotic Drugs.

His mission was breaking into all major drug trading cartels

and help the police forces of several countries eradicate them.

Cover up.

Those who lose blood have shivers.

And it's cold up here.

Where are we off to?

The hospital, of course. Where else?

So they can see to your wound.

You said we were going to the DA.

That was a century ago.

We'll prove that Bekiris was killed by Katia.

And how did Katia die?

Gangsters have this bad habit of killing one another.

Thank you!

No reason to.

It would be a shame if they kicked you out of the Force because of me.

After all, policemen have the right to love, too.

Both women and men.

Because | put my trust in you, because you give me perseverance...

. because you spare tranquility for my weary psyche.
