Original subtitles

My name is Boniface.

I am from Sapele, Delta state.

Age?

Age 28.

Well, before I tell you anything about Dejavu.

Or how I got my hands on it or what is inside...

I will like to start from the very beginning.

Thank you, ma.

My name is Clara Olusola.

I was born in Ife, I grew up in Ife. But then I left my house because of some family issues. Domestic violence.

Anyway, I will talk about that later.

But there is one thing I just have to say.

I love Boniface.

He is my life.

And he doesn’t deserve all these things.

I'm a dropout. A university dropout. Yeah.

I am educated.

I only came to Lagos to hustle.

How can senate president say he's going to summon the president?

What effontery?

What are you saying? Why can’t he?

What is this man saying?

With all the rubbish he is doing with our country’s resources.

It is beyond his power. What effrontery?

What kind of person is this?

It is not beyond his power.

He is the senate president. He has more power than the president. What are you saying?

I don’t know why you all are arguing over this issue.

If you check the 1999 Nigerian constitution, specifically check chapter five, part one, section 50 to 62.

You will see all the power of the senate spelt out then compare that with chapter six.

Look, the Nigerian senate can choose to summon anybody.

But the Nigerian president can choose to decline any invitation.

Remember, he still has veto power.

Gbam! Professor is here.

You are a great guy.

Senate president has more powers?

Instead of you to buy newspapers, you're busy talking.

Have you seen my phone?

Are you crazy?

Where is my phone?

Why were you not vigilant? What's wrong with you?

Don't piss me off!

Welcome to Lagos.

High Chief Chilekwu

(Salutations)

Boniface Ogbotomah

(Salutations)

Egberi papa one.

Papa one has been taken already. You are number two.

There is a new package.

This is clean. It’s good.

Don’t you trust me? This is my profession

Bonny, at this rate, you’ll soon have enough to travel abroad.

I don’t have an international passport let alone a visa.

Are you trying to say you are not travelling abroad anymore?

Says who?

As a matter of fact, my spirit is already abroad.

I‘m just trying to raise enough money.

The liquid.

Bonny Bonny.

You should add something.

It’s alright, you can take your leave.

Bring another one and let’s see how it will go.

Bonny Bonny.

Everybody knows mama junior.

My restaurant is number 1 in the whole neighbourhood.

Excuse me, ma'am.

What do you want again?

I already told you I don’t need any extra worker.

Even if I did, it wouldn’t be someone like you.

I can do anything. Even if I have to wash plates.

I said I don’t want an extra worker or are you deaf?

Please ma, can I get some water?

Leave My shop!

Mama Junior.

Serve her, I will pay.

What?

I said serve her. You can take it from my money.

Thank you. God bless you.

Taye!

Thank you.

Taye! Give her some food

Thank you bros.

Thank you.

Here. Your change.

Thank you.

Ma'am, I will come and finish it later. Thank you.

Bros!

Bros!

Yes, what is it?

Bros, please help me.

I have been walking all day.

My family problem led me to the streets.

Please help me. I don’t have any money or where to stay.

Young woman. I don’t know you from Jupiter and you don’t know me from Adam. Ok? So just turn back and go your way.

Please let me work for you. I can do anything.

Do you even know the work I am doing?

I can do anything you want.

As long I don’t have to open my legs.

Listen, leave me alone. Don’t follow me.

Please.

What is wrong with you?

Bros.

I said stop following me.

Who goes there?

It’s me.

How the hell did you find this place?

I didn’t have anywhere to go to.

Nobody knows where I live.

How did you get here?

Are you deaf?

Did anyone follow you?

Are you working for the police?

Did anyone see you coming here?

Did anyone follow you?

Nobody followed me, I came alone.

What kind of problem is this?

What did I tell you?

I did not have anywhere to go.

This is a big problem.

I can work for you.

You can’t work for me.

You can’t do what I do, you can’t.

I'm fit. Check out my muscles. I'm fit, I can do anything. Please.

Can you tap?

What ?

Tap?!

I earn a living by tapping.

Tapping is the act of obtaining valuable items from people who are careless.

What?

I’m a thief.

Phones, valuables, laptops...

And I resell them.

That’s how I earn a living and survive in these hard times.

I can join you.

No.

I work alone.

Please I am begging you. Please don’t leave me, I can learn. Boss, I can learn.

You are too crude.

Crude like crude oil.

If you’ll work for me I’ll need to extract you.

Blend and distil you so that you can come out refined.

Thank you bros, thank you.

What’s your name?

Clara.

My name is Boniface.

But you can call me Bonny.

I’m tired.

I had a busy day today. You start work tomorrow.

Take a seat.

This is my wardrobe.

So what are we doing here?

What?

You thought I’d let you follow me looking this way?

Is this how you want to go out?

Choose something and let’s get out of here.

Hurry. Hurry.

Make it snappy.

Watch properly.

And learn

Hey! Who are you?

Sorry.

With all this space, you can’t see clearly.

Sorry.

In this business, once you’re done tapping, movement!

From when she started working with me, business was smooth.

No interest.

You don’t want?

Who is there?

Who is there?

Paulina.

Boniface. Why do you like hurting me?

It’s been a while you called me.

Think about it, when was the last time you called me?

It’s not like that.

Wait Boniface.

Who is this?

Good evening.

Please keep your greetings.

She’s my assistant.

Your assistant?

See how she’s dressed like those girls on Instagram.

Boniface, assistant?

Please, stop deceiving me.

I thought you said you prefer to work alone.

Yeah.I know.

She doesn’t have a family.

She doesn’t have anyone, I’m just helping her.

Help her?

The good Samaritan.

You know me.

I don’t want to hear later that both of you are intimate.

You know I don’t tolerate nonsense.

Boniface, you know me.

It’s not like that. You are jumping to conclusions.

What’s wrong with you?

So you miss me but you never called.

Why are you acting like you didn’t miss me at all?

The first time I saw that stupid Clara girl in that place.

I was very pissed.

I just felt like transforming to Tsunami.

...and break her down like the walls of of Jericho. That’s how I felt.

But it seems she had good home training.

Luckily, she respected herself and left the room.

And the spirit of God calmed me down. But I’m still very angry.

I would have dealt with her.

I don’t trust her. I don’t trust all these girls.

Girls that behave like saints. They are nothing like saints.

She could be acting innocent one minute. Next minute she could take over everywhere.

Over-heating!

Over-heating! Overheating

Over-heating!

Overheating, open your bonnet.

Over-heating! Bonnet! Bonnet!

Where's the smoke coming from?

Benji, the box!

Hello Boniface.

Haruna, where are you?

Meet me at Sabo, that courtyard. Meet me there now!

Hey, stop!

You know you are dead?

If you know what’s good for you, just give me the briefcase now!

Bring it!

You think you are stubborn? That means you are ready to meet your maker.

Don’t try me! Give it to me!

There’s a guy called Haruna.

This Haruna, I don’t know the bond between him and Bonny.

But this guy can die for Bonny.

I’m not sure but it seems Bonny has saved his life in the past.

But in our line of business...

when things got out of hand...

Haruna was always our last call.

He always saves us.

We lost the briefcase, sir.

Which briefcase?

Your briefcase sir.

How?

One boy and one girl. We pursued them.

Were they heavily armed?

Weapon? No. Not even a catapult.

No weapon.

Two people?

Yes sir. We pursued them.

Did they have guns?

Benji. Benji.

How did you let this happen?

Benji!

I just want to understand what you are saying.

We pursued them sir.

You said two rats.

Two small rats. sir.

One boy and one girl.

One small boy and one small girl sir.

You even added ‘small’.

One small boy and one small girl.

Yes boss. We pursued them sir.

No weapon.

We pursued them.

Collect my property. You pursued them?

We pursued them.

You pursued them.

Are you okay?

I think I sprained my ankle.

Do you have some balm, bandage or any ointment?

Balm?

I think I have something.

Here. Use it.

Won’t you massage it?

Why? Am I your nurse?

Please Bonny.

Bonny?

What?

I’m in pains, please massage my leg.

Leave me.

Please.

Okay okay.

Thank you.

Bring your leg.

Please be gentle. It hurts.

Please don’t shout. I am just helping you.

Gently. Take it easy, please.

What’s wrong with you?

It hurts.

Here?

Yeah... Yes.

Sorry.

Gently!

This looks serious.

From the look of things, we’ll have to amputate your leg.

What?

Do not worry. Doctor Boniface is on it.

Now you’re doing it right. You said you weren’t a nurse whereas you’re a professional nurse.

Is it a nurse that massages or a physiotherapist?

Sorry.

Bonny.

I know everything has been happening so fast lately. I just want to say thank you.

For what?

I just want to say thank you and I’m grateful.

For what? What did I do?

Thank you for accepting me. I really do appreciate.

Is that why are thanking me?

Forget it.

Not everyone will do what you are doing for me.

Not everyone will take me in. I owe you a lot.

Thank you.

I said it. What’s this rubbish?

Paulina! Paulina!

I saw this coming.

Stop!

Leave me. I can see what both of you have been up to. Continue!

It’s not what you think. We weren’t doing anything.

I was just treating her injury

You were treating her?

Small doctor, continue.

Don’t touch me! If you touch me, I will give you a dirty slap.

Do you realise we are outside?

Let everyone hear me! Leave me!

What’s wrong with you?

From the moment I saw you and that idiot.

That witch! I know all your antics now. Everything has been revealed.

Please.

Get out of my way.

Please.

Don’t touch me. I’m very angry.

Boniface. listen to me!

What?

We have gotten to the end of the road. Let’s go our separate ways.

What is the meaning of that?

Let me repeat myself in English.

It is over between us, Boniface.

Stop it!

Boniface you know me. Don’t let me display my madness here.

Idiot!

All you men are the same.

Let me tell you what happens next.

Yes sir.

You will go out there.

Find those small rats.

I will find them.

Those two rats. Find them.

I will find them.

I don’t care... If they are related to the president or the Governor.

We will find them.

How could some children take my property from me in my area?

Me? Ebuka!

We will find them sir.

Collect my property back.

Yes boss.

Collect my property because...

We pursued them sir.

If I don’t get my property back, if I don’t get my briefcase back, Bruno.

We pursued them sir.

Fill in the gap.

We will find them sir.

We will find them sir.

Welcome.

How are you?

I am very well sir.

Are you Jelili?

Yes. I am Jelili.

Which tyre do you want to pump?

This one?

Enter the car.

Enter the car, let’s talk.

Ok.

Hello sir.

Are you the vulcanizer here?

Yes I am.

I’ve been here for the past 5 years. I’m the only vulcanizer in this area.

5 years?

Yes, it’s been a long time.

So how’s work?

Well...It’s not easy.

Please sir.

I’m looking for two people. They are petty thieves in this area.

I don’t know anyone.

I swear on my mother’s grave. I don’t know any thief.

I only know my job.

Please sir.

If you hear anything or you see anything at all, call me immediately.

Do you understand?

Yes sir.

Call me.

Yes sir.

Get out.

Dejavu.

Is that not when something seems so familiar like it has happened before?

Which one is this?

Forget about that.

I'm very sure there’s a lot of money in this briefcase.

Liquid!

Dollars.

If it is not dollars, it must be something worth more than Dollars.

Like diamonds.

This is our breakthrough.

We are moving to a new level.

And we can achieve our dreams.

But how do we open it?

I used to open locks in boarding school. Calm down.

I’ve tried all the tricks in my head.

Try 1-1-1.

Another one. 0-0-0

Ok. Now I know it.

666... I told you.

Bring it.

Wait! It’s 419.

4-1...

Don’t ever underestimate me. It’s my profession. Now, open it.

Bring my bag! Stop toying with it.

How else can I open it?

Dejavu.

Can you open it?

Where did you find this?

It’s harvest from the last job.

Boniface, you need to return this thing ASAP.

Why?

Both of you have made a big mistake. There should be honour amongst thieves.

What’s that supposed to mean?

Can’t you read the inscription?

Why are you staring like an idiot?

The owners of this briefcase are very deadly.

Oh please.

Are they part of the Armed forces?

This is not about Armed Forces.

I am saying that the owners of this briefcase will stop at nothing to get it back.

No matter how many lives they have to waste.

At least they don’t know me. So I’m covered.

What I want to know is the content of this box.

Because I think it contains Oil Well documents or something.

Bonny. Take your box and leave my shop.

I’m not ready to die.

Because it’s just a matter of time before they find you.

And they will kill you without hesitation.

Is that why...

Get out!

I am a vulcanizer and a very competent one.

But we are often times overlooked. They see us as the dirty ones.

Whereas, we see everything going on.

People only come to us when they need to fix their tyres.

Irrespective of your societal class, you’ll need us someday.

Welcome sir.

You said you’d call me when you have more information.

Yes sir.

Do you have something good for me?

Yes sir.

Where are they?

Sir?

Where are they?

I don’t know where they are.

Are you crazy?

Sorry sir.

I’m not crazy sir. You told me to call you if I hear or see anything.

Then start talking.

About the issue you asked me...

There’s a man.

They call him....

Chilekwu...Chilekwu

Chilekwu.

He’s an exchanger in the area.

Do you know what exchange means?

Are you insane?

Sorry sir.

You clearly have mental problems.

I heard he’s the major exchanger in the area.

Are you sure?

Yes. I am sure.

Where can I find him?

Come closer.

Good-bye sir.

Where is my briefcase?

Sir...

Where are the rats?

Sir they...

So you do not have my briefcase and you did not catch the rats. Then why are you here?

Bruno.

Boss.

What am I going to do with you?

I have information. Correct information.

What information?

I know them.

I know where they eat.

And then the popular exchanger they use, I know him. He is called Chilekwu.

I know them sir. Boss, I know them.

Is that all?

Yes sir.

This is all that you have brought for me?

Yes sir.

This is all the information you brought?

Yes sir.

Well, information is greater than power.

Yes Sir.

And the man who has information will one day rule over the man who has power.

You have brought me something valuable.

I guess you are not going to die today.

Now first thing tomorrow morning, we are going to the food joint that you mentioned.

And also to that Chilekwu or what did you call him?

Boss. Let me handle it.

No. if you want something done well, you will do it yourself.

I will go myself. Period.

The longer that briefcase stays outside, the crazier I get.

If you all don’t want to see me crazy...

No sir. God forbid.

Take it easy, we don’t know what’s in the box yet.

I am sorry about you and Paulina.

Sorry?

For what?

I...

I made the move.

And I did not stop you.

Welcome sir. What do you want?

How are you?

Give me water.

Ok sir.

Where is your madam?

She is not here sir.

Yes sir.

I’m looking for two people.

A guy and a lady.

They are always picking people’s pockets.

Do you understand me? And they stole something that is very valuable to me.

And I want it back.

Picking pockets?

I swear, I don’t know them.

You don’t know them.

No sir.

It's ok.

If I come back, find out that you or your madam know them...

Fill in the gap.

Sorry. We are not open yet. Today is Thursday, environmental. Come back later.

So you are Chilekwu?

I can see that you are fat.

So you should have a fat brain.

I will just go straight to the point.

I am looking for two rats.

They stole a briefcase from me and it belongs to my boss.

I know you do business with them.

I am sorry to disappoint you but I am an ordinary sales man.

I don’t know who you are talking about and I don’t deal with thieves.

Chilekwu, this is not an ordinary shop.

I know what you do.

Bro, no offense. I don’t know what you are talking about.

Kindly leave my shop.

Move!

Don’t look for my trouble.

Let me get you another cigarette.

No. don’t worry.

Is it ok? I am just being nice.

Someone is calling?

Mama.

Bonny.

There’s trouble. You are wanted.

Someone came to the shop to look for you guys.

I was lucky not to be around.

I asked people around and I was told the man is a Don.

They call him Ebuka.

Nice one mama.

I want both of you to be careful.

Don’t worry.

Why don’t you guys leave town until the matter dies down.

What did you take from the man?

Bonny?

This boy hung up.

Hello Boniface.

My dear friend.

Code Red.

Brotherly...What’s going on?

Do you know anyone called Ebuka?

Oh! I know him. The guy is notorious.

He is looking for Clara and I.

I heard he’s a tough guy.

Please, be on the lookout for me.

If you see him just alert me immediately.

This is code Red.

Ok boss.

What’s the matter?

It’s the box guy, right?

You are not ready to talk right?

I already told you all I know.

Did they not bring the box to you?

I don’t know what you are talking about. I’m an ordinary salesmen.

Please I beg you.

I don’t know anything.

I like your loyalty.

Indeed, loyalty is a very good virtue.

But one thing that is more important than loyalty...

Do you know what it is?

It is discipline.

Please.

Without discipline, any other virtue is useless.

Please, I don’t know anything.

I’m just a trader.

I need information from you.

And since I can’t get it...

Can I go now?

What are you saying?

Can I go now?

You have to burn.

I don’t know anything.

Ok. I will talk.

There’s this lady

Tell me something I don’t know already.

Not the one that’s with him now.

I’m talking about another woman.

His girlfriend. Well..his ex-girlfriemd

Ex-girlfriend?

That’s what I heard.

Her name is Paulina.

She knows where he stays.

And where can I find this Paulina?

I don’t know where she lives but I know where you can find her.

There is petrol over here, please be careful with that cigarette.

I can see what both of you have been up to. Continue!

It is not what you think. I did not do anything, I was just helping her treat an injury.

You are now a doctor. Continue.

Boniface, listen to me. It is over.

Why are you saying that?

Let me repeat myself in English.

It is over between us, Boniface.

Officer, never let anyone disturb your progress in life.

If someone hurts you, hurt them back.

I practically helped Boniface here in Lagos.

I used to buy pants for him.

I used to feed Boniface. When he came to Lagos, he looked like those boys who beg on social media.

He didn’t look like someone I could date.

Ask about me in Warri.

I’m so popular they almost put my picture on a Billboard.

To think I came to Lagos only to get entangled.

I do not care about love.

Let’s get out of here fast.

Paulina, what’s all this?

What’s going on?

So it is the both of you?

You are the ones that have been giving us problems.

We have been searching for you.

You deserve some credits.

We searched everywhere for you.

You stole our briefcase.

I must say that I am impressed.

You deserve some credit.

You deserve some credits.

Please get out.

You will die today!

You now have your briefcase so let us go.

Chairman.

From what I see. You seem like a tough guy.

Why don’t you come work for me?

Why would I do that?

For what reason?

Because you don’t have a choice.

So why did you ask me?

Because I am a gentleman.

In that case, ‘no’.

I’m a one man squad.

I can’t have a boss that would be tossing me up and down.

What’s wrong with you? Do you want to die?

Relax.

Relax?

Do you want him to kill us?

You are crazy.

Fine girl.

What’s your name?

Clara.

Clara.

My name is Tomson.

Tomson with a T. But my friends and guys call me Ebuka.

Do you have guys?

What you have are robots that you control.

Look at this guy.

Everyone has friends.

Do you recall a certain character called Adolf Hitler?

As bad as he was...

He still had friends.

My guy!

I’m not your guy.

My name is Bonny.

Say what?

Wait. Did you say your name is Bonny?

You are Bonny, she is Clara?

Yes sir.

Bonny. Clara.

Yes sir.

Bonnie and Clyde.

These guys are Bonny and Clyde.

He is crazy.

You don’t know about Bonny and Clyde?

They were the baddest criminals in history.

I think in America or somewhere like that.

They were lovers but they were also criminals.

And they brought their love affair into the crime activities.

They were the baddest criminal as far as I am concerned.

As a matter of fact...

All these stories about Romeo and Juliet...

To me, Bonnie and Clyde is the best love story that ever was.

I just remembered something right now.

Do you know that Bonnie and Clyde were killed by gunshots?

It seems history is about to repeat itself.

Boss please, let us go. You already have your briefcase.

Tell your friend to consider my offer. Do you understand?

I can’t work for you. I can’t.

What’s that?

Go check what’s going on outside.

Go check what’s going on outside.

Who is that?

If you move, you are dead. Do you understand?

Bruno! Bruno, what’s happening?

Who are you?

Who are you?

Who sent you?

Who sent you here to come waste my guys?

You don’t want to talk.

If you don’t tell me who sent you. I will waste you.

One...Two...

My money is gone.

All I have is gone.

Paulina.

So, what next?

Initially, I didn’t intend to sell him out.

But the moment they told me Boniface stole from them.

I decided to give them his location.

I didn’t know the situation would be this bad.

But the way things are right now, I don’t regret my actions.

I had to make the best out of the situation.

What about the briefcase? Where is it?

Dejavu?

We lost it.

I don’t know where it is.

The same way the original owners lost it, that's how we lost it.

This briefcase issue seems like fate.

Anyone who finds it will lose it.

Maybe that’s why they call it Dejavu.

You can’t find it.

The Nigerian police will not condone criminal activities such as yours.

You will be appearing in court next week, you are been charged for theft and constituting public nuisance.

The police is ready to rid the society of bad eggs like you.

Come take these people out of my sight.
