All language subtitles for Hotel.Noir.2012

I know, I'm not what you expected

Honestly, I'm not what I expected, either

Or what my mother expected

You could say I'm unexpected all arround

I install shower doors, glass ones
On the side I paint pets

Not paint the pets,
I do portraits of pets

You're thinking: wait a minute?
Shower doors ...

... probably means he gets a lot of
lonely housewives coming onto him

maybe an average looking but with a friendly
manner and an optimistic outlook of life

You know, I can say yes,
it happens sometimes

or at least once ... with a
good looking lady, that is

Happened another time
but I rather not think about that

Anyway, I was finishing the
installation when she walked in

- Contrary to popular belief
- Beg your pardon?

Kittens love taking showers?

- Contrary to popular belief
- Yeah!

Do you mind if I try out the shower

- and make sure it doesn't have a leak?
- Oh, the shower is not gonna leak.

My work is guaranteed

- Oh
- Yes, oh

I hate awkward silences

- I know what you mean
- You are a very difficult man to read, Eugene

- Am I?
- Because oh could mean several things

It could be an encouraging oh

Or it could be an
oh I play for the opposite team

- Is that what you think?
- I hope not

Oh, what about your husband?

- I don't wanna talk about him

But he's not gonna walk in now
while you're taking a shower

No, lately he comes home late,
if he comes home at all

It's a heavy workload at work he says

She was a little redundant, I noticed that right away
But I don't mind that in a woman

- You know?
- I know, times are tough

Do you wanna keep talking about him or
do you wanna watch me take a shower?

As you can probably imagine I had 200%
of 0 interest in talking about her husband

I just wanted to make sure it wasn't
some kind of kinky ....

where he was gonna come busting in with a
baseball bat and I'd end up gagged in some cellar

- I rather watch you take a shower
- Great

I've never showered in front of someone else

- I could turn around
- You're a real gentleman, aren't you?

I was raised by a single mom
so she made sure I respected women

It's not easy for you guys with us calling
the shots or thinking we do anyway

all we do is mess things up

all you guys want is a little attention

somebody that holds your hand
during dinner and listens

You know, says thank you
and tells you your hair looks nice

I knew the holding hands bit was overkill
at least I didn't offered to give her a massage

The damage was done,
she was drop dead gorgeous

All that oxygen, pumping in and out of her lungs

I didn't asked for this, you know

The first weekend we got together
he took me on a trip to Cabo

And I found out later he had conned his way into
getting an upgrade using someone elses name

which at the time I thought was reckless and cute

maybe it was the heat or the ceviche that went
thru my head but somehow I had 19 orgasms

- From eating ceviche?
- With him in the room

And I just thought holy moly,
you know, this is the one

- I guess
- Because he knows how to make me feel

How to listen to my body

I think there are a lot of guys
who could listen to your body

You're sweet

No, I mean your body
really speaks load and clear

You think I'm vulgar?

No! Not at all
I think you're articulate

- physically is what I'm saying
- You think I'm fat

- My mother has gotten so fat
- No, no

You're not at all fat. Lets talk about
what you were talking about before

No, I dont want to talk about him

Me either ...
words just getting away of emotions

- But somehow I feel like I can really talk to you.
And so she talked

I knew I was in trouble when
I noticed my right leg was asleep

and I started wondering how late I was
gonna be for my next appointment

It was clear this woman was in no
emotional state to throw herself at me

Plus the 19 orgasms given to her by her
husband were looming over me like a monster

And that russian tramp had hypnotized him and
he had blown all of the missing cash on her

- How many days were you in Cabo?
- Two, why?

- No reason
- Listen to me

Saying I dont want to talk about him and then going
on and on about him you must think I am such a mess

- No, I dont
- Yes you do

Because, what I want

No no, what I need

I need for you to ravage me
Can you do that for me?

Even if I look like I'm not enjoying myself

Can you just have your way with me
like some sort of savage

It's ok, it's ok
It's ok

- I love him so much!
- We shouldn't do this.

He is a great guy, you would get
along, you would like eachother

- I'm sure we'd love eachother
- I am the worst person in the world

I have no right to drag you
into this, I'm so sorry

So anyway that happens once in a while

But for the most part

Shower doors installation does not equal seduction

Which makes the tale I'm about
to tell you all the more peculiar.

- I didnt know you had company. - Who?
- I don't know, I'm Sevilla.

Eugene, Portland
at your service

Is that your dog?

No, thats a painting I was commissioned by a lady
Can I help you?

- This is not room 43
- No, it's room 34

I have a condition

- What kind of condition?
- A dyslexic condition

I'm sorry to bother you,
I'm late for an appointment

No bother at all, come back any time

Before I can tell you about Sevilla story
I gotta tell you about Felix

He's the real protagonist of this tale

Even if he's not gonna make it thru the night

The main thing you gotta know,
he was a great detective

He didnt think he was a hot potato,
he just was

But then he fell for the wrong kind of dame
Who doesnt?

And he borrowed ... scratch that,
stole some money in order to get away with her

To live happily ever after.
He planned the whole thing perfectly

Outwitted his opponents, misdirected like a magician
switched the bag, lost the tail and waited for her

Sorry, I thought you were someone else

I read this book once,
that book is out of print

Time passed, too fast,
before you saw her

Then it stopped short,
short on a dime

Time passed too fast before you saw her,
Then it stopped short, short on a dime

She's so pretty, she's so pretty,
you've never seen so pretty in all of your time

and you can get the governor on the line

and will it with all of your might

You cant change the fact that
she's a diamond, shiny diamond

and you sir are merely just a man

Men have tried since she first grew
into the golden masterpiece that she is

whip, smart and bright, bright as lightning

But they werent ever on par with the miss

You can be stranded on a isle with her

and hope she gets bored with herself

You cant change the fact that
she's a diamond, shiny diamond

and you sir are merely just a man

What are you looking at?

- Excuse me?
- What are you looking at?

- Not you buddy
- Whats that suppose to mean?

- I'm not looking at you, I'm looking at her
- Well, thats what it looks like

- You know, I dont like you looking at her
- Why would I care what you like?

Because she's my girlfriend and
I dont like you looking at her

- She's a singer, everyone's looking at her
- Not the way you're looking at her

Relax, I'm just watching her sing

You're thinking dirty thoughts about her

Actually I wasnt

- You can be stranded on a
- Proove it

- Vance, stop it
- Baby, I'm handling this

Just leave him alone

- You said this wasnt gonna happen again tonight
- I warned you not to serve him

Leave the man alone.
I'm sorry mister

- You probably like the way he's looking at you,
you sick twist! - Oh, drop dead!

- Just let me talk to you

If you dont finish your set tonight you're gonna
have to play an extra 15 minutes tomorrow

- You need to leave, now, please
- I've missed you so much, let me talk to you

I have no interest whatsoever in talking
to you or in hearing you talk ever

- Look, I'm crazy about you
- You are crazy, period. Let go

- Where would you be without me?
- You're about to find out that

Sorry about that

- Miss Click, you signed the contract specifying 2 full sets
- What part of I'm in middle of something here you dont understand?

- Management doesnt take these things likely
- Oh, I shudder, I quake and I quit!

Oh, common baby, come back

You're allright there friend?
You should probably get home and sleep it off

Please mister dont tell anyone about this

I only sat my ass for 5 minutes
but I meant no harm honestly

If the management finds out that i've fell asleep in
a clients room again, thats it i'm out on the street

I've been working double shifts plus school
so I havent been getting much sleep

Last time they said I was a thief because the woman
in the room dropped her earring down the drain

and for that they implied that i was soliciting
sexual favors which the management frowns upon

not the soliciting so much as
not cutting them in the profit

so I yelled at them and told them
Who the hell do they think I am?

Just because I fell asleep on a mans bad
doesnt mean that I've slept with the man

- I dont think you're a thief
- Really?

Really

Well thats very perceptive of you because I'm not
I swear on the virgin of Guadalupe

You probably dont know who that is
but she means the world to me

However I did manage to notice that you have
a costume on your suitcase so I hung it

so it wouldnt wrinkle
Thats ..... outfit, isnt it? She's my favorite

Not that I have time to waste
But my little sister is obsessed

so she relays all the stories to me.
Where did you get it?

A friend of mine works in one of the studios

It's an exact replica of one of the pictures

That is really neat

In any case I best get back to work
so I dont lose my job

Would you like to keep it?

Oh, I need it. I have to pay for my sisters
school and I'm the only one she has

No, I meant the costume

What do you mean?

I dont need it anymore,
do you like it?

Really?

- Whats your angle?
- What angle?

You're a costume salesman?
Because I dont have any money

You're in luck.
I'm not

Then whats your angle?

In my life so far nobody ever gave me something
when they werent expecting something back

Not that they gave me very much
mind you but I give a lot back

You can say that's my problem,
I give too much for too litle

But that sounds dirty.
I mean emotionally

If I tell you something you promise
not to take it the wrong way?

- I talk too much
- Bingo

- Only around smart people, its a complex
- Well, rest asure, I'm not smart

- You're just saying that
- Who you're gonna believe?

Maybe not smart but a shade less
dumb than the others

- I'm Sevilla, like the spanish city
- Felix, like Felix

- So, you're sure I can keep it?
- Keep it, dont keep it, suit yourself

I'll come back after I finish my
rounds and model it for you

That was quick

- Hi
- Hi

Mind if I come in?
I hate drinking alone.

Come in

I wanted to thank you for earlier

- I didnt do anything
- You got the show stopped

- It was a good show
- If you like wakes

- Where's your friend?
- Oh, friedships got nothing to do with it

- If you dont mind my saying
- I dont mind

Funny meeting somebody nice in a night like this

- I once stole a crutch from a cripple
- Somebody modest then

- Realistic maybe
- I'm sick of realism

- I hope I havent disappointed you
- I dont disappoint that easily

- Years of practice
- Changing your habits on my account

- Tell me
-What

The primary reason you're here,
at the show, in this room, tonight

- You first
- Just passing thru

3 night engagement, didnt you read the sign?

You know the drill, I had dreams
- What kind of dreams?

- The kind that have been tried and found wanting
- Such as?

Trade on my natural charm and
talent and become a big singer

graduate, pictures and you know as I get older
I open up a restaurant, a bistro, a bar

On the beach

- Sure, I like the beach
- Who doesnt?

- My ex-husband
- He didnt like the beach?

- Didnt like any sand in the shoes
- And still you married him

- I had to get out of there somehow
- He had a car

- He had a truck. Are you a cop?
- Why?

- You ask questions like a cop
- How's that?

Like you're not interested in the
answer but the way I answer

- I'm a cop
- No kidding

You're on a stakeout?

- I was gonna hop a train
- Changed your mind?

- Missed my train
- When's the next one?

- 7am
- My bus leaves at 6

- Where to?
- Away

So you missed your train, checked into the closest hotel
not realizing you might meet the woman of your dreams

Woman of my dreams stood me up

- drops bad girl
- You dont know the half of it

- How did you meet the woman of your dreams?
- Why do you wanna know?

- Fundamentally curious person
- Undercover bust

- A cop falling for a robber
- She was no robber, just an accessory

- A guy like you needs more than an accessory
- Guy like me? Whats that suppose to mean?

First tell me about her

Beat it ladies.
You can stay

- You're Swedish Mary, arent you?
- Excuse me?

Make this easy on yourself

- I'm not the person you think
- You're not Swedish Mary?

No

- I'm italian
- Italian?

- Si, from Milano
- Whats your name?

- Rosa
- Rosa?

Lets write this down
Rosa what?

- Rosa Manioni
- You're italian?

- Yes, why?
- Its your accent

- So what? No capisci
- Sounds funny

- Funny?
- Funny

- I think your accent sounds funny
- I dont have an accent

Everybody has an accent

- What it is your name?
- Thats not important, how long you know him?

- In one way it is like we always known eachother
- And in another way? - 6 months

Want a cigarette?

- You're his mistress?
- Just a friend

Kind of friend who likes to do
errands for him, am I right Mary?

- What do you mean?
- Drop things off?

Like his dry cleaning?
I do not like your insinuation

- I dont like your accent
- It is your problem

- I thought you said your name was Rosa
- I know what I said

You didnt flinch when
I was just called you Mary

I know what you are trying to do
It wont work

- Did he ever give you gifts?
- I do not remember

- Jewelery? Diamonds?
- I want a lawyer

- You'll get one

No, I mean I want a lawyer now,
here, to answer your questions

You're not charged with anything,
we're just having a chat

- You think you're so tough with your big gun,
dont you? - I do

Why are you smiling?

The only good thing about this moment

is I'm sure that as long as I live
I'll never feel this lonely again

Am I free to go now?

Took me by surprise, her accent,
the whole thing just clicked

I decided then that I like Swedish Mary

Patience is a virtue and I waited

Took me only one year

- Have we met before?
- I think I'd remember

I guess he couldnt resist
Who could blame him?

Sometimes I hate my job, you know?

I've gotta close this case

What are you talking about?

Sorry

I thought you liked her

- More than liked her
- Love? You dont say

It wasnt love yet
Something nearly identical

- But still, you busted her
- No, I gave her an out

- I dont like snitches
- Its an ugly word

Its an ugly job

Sounds like you're talking from experience

- Your husband, Vance, did?
- Vance? Not my husband

- I thought you said you were married
- I got married at 16 to a traveling salesman

- What kind of salesman?
- Nice, boring one who talked a lot

- What did he sell?
- Whats the difference? The point is

A young wife gets left alone at home all day
in a big city she's bound to get restless

Thats how I met Vance

Before he was a victim of the
racetrack he was a jazz guitarist

- A good one too
- He offered you private lessons

- Told him I was married
- What did he say?

He said many great guitar players are married

Vance's gambling took its toll pretty damn fast

Next thing I knew I was a
what did you call it?

An accessory

- Is she allright?
- What kind of question is that?

The kind that keeps you out of jail

She'll keep her mouth shut,
lets just leave her out of it

Got a different idea

Yeah? Since when do you have ideas?

I think we should use her as the decoy

We dont have another piece of ass,
we got her around

Who gave you permission to talk about her ass?

- What would I have to do?
- Stay out of this

Dont talk to me like that

I'll talk to you however I wanna talk to you

In front of your friends you mean?

- Why did you put out with it?
- I dont know

I guess I can think of a couple of reasons

But when his partners got pinched after
the job I lost all respect for the creep

- Bad day
- Bad day?

- It was the roll of the dice
- Why not you?

Because I have my lucky charm: you!

I saw you at that pay phone Vance

- You got it all wrong baby
- Do I?

If you wanna split thats fine

But dont go running your mouth
about stuff you dont know nothing about

- That can make my life pretty messy
- Your life is a mess, you cant pin that on me

- I'm warning you
- You're threatening me

- You call it what you like
- I dont like being threatened

You're a coward and a cheat

- I love you
- You dont love anybody

I wanna make you a star I have the
money now I can take you all the way

- Get out of my sight
- Or what?

- Or I'll throw this vase at your head
- I'll duck

Not quick enough

Anyway he ended up in a hospital with 30 stiches

- Where did you get such perfect aim?
- Captain of my highschool softball team

Skipped town, travel country a couple times,
pursuit of happiness and all that

even with a nice lady tennis player once

didnt take, kept singing, some crackpot idea
Turns out I'm not the worlds greatest singer

Sounded good to me

Can I ask you a question?

- Is it about the nice lady tennis player?
- It got my attention

She was the wife of a club owner

- Couldnt believe a modern girl such as myself never played
- Played what?

Tennis detective
She offered to teach me

- More private lessons
- I can see how you'd make that leap

You dont get all your facts,
you just hear bits of someones life story

you maybe take me for a person who
gets lots of offers for private lessons

- I never met anyone with proclivity before
- I've never met a detective who said proclivity before

So what happened to you?
Had a few private lessons then what?

- Decided you didnt like the game?
- Call me old fashioned

but it wasnt just that

Lady tennis player was coming to get you

Lady tennis player was allright

- The problem was
- Let me guess

- Her husband
- What make you say that?

My job description
Intuition

- 10 bucks he liked watching the lessons
- No, that wasnt the problem

He was a club owner who once in a
month performed in his own club

- He had a famous act called
- The concubines of the cunning

I woke up alone in a room
no ideea how long I've been there

but shortly after the 3 concubines
came in and began to undress me

I tried to fight back but they
were expert ticklers

Ticklers?

I know how it sounds but they
were vicious and I was powerless

Ticklers?

They undressed me and then
he walked in still in costume

They held me down and caressed me
I have never been caressed like that before

- And then
- And then?

I fell into a deep sleep

The next morning I woke up
in my hotel room, still naked

no sign of my clothes anywhere

I found out later I had slept for 2 whole days
or at least I couldnt count for 2 whole days

Like time just vanished into the ether

Who is it?
Maureen came to see me

- Who's Maureen?
- The lady tennis player

Maureen Chapman?
Associated Press female tennis player of the year?

- 3 years straight
- Her husband was murdered

I read about that, it was a big deal,
Philadelphia right?

I didnt realized you follow tennis
I never told you this part

You know what actually happened?

- All I know is she came to tell me
- Hector is dead

- Who's Hector?
The cunning, my husband

- He might have been killed
- When, how? - I dont know

That's a tragedy

You should probably leave town

Allright, if you think thats for the best

You can wear this

Maureen?
I'm sorry

She paid my bill and gave me a train ticket

I never did find out what
happened to her husband

They had to drag the lake to find him
Boating accident the report said

- What do you think?
- About what?

It wasnt an accident?

Time slows down before an accident you know

My last 10 years were pretty slow

Coming back here was the accident

- Whats in the briefcase?
- Money

I dont believe you

- A lot of money?
- Enough to make your dreams come true

- Why would you tell me just like that?
- I'm not worried about you

I dont know if I should be offended or not
Whos money is it?

- Who says is not mine?
- Intuition

- It's a long story
- It's a long night

I'll tell you what
What do you say

- We get a refill downstairs?
- I'm not too popular down there, remember?

Lets see if we can do something about that

- What about the money?
- Dont worry

- We're closed
- Official business

- What did she do?
- Thats the official part

- A real smart guy. I dont care who you are
I dont have to keep the place open for you

Fix us a couple of sandwiches will you?

- What do I look like to you?
- Like a barman who knows how to fix a sandwich

I know its been a quiet night
let me make it worthwhile

Fix yourself
and a beer

- Hope you like real cheese
- My favorite

My partner Jim an I were put on Mary detail
funny choice of words in retrospect

- What took you so long?
- I had to stop for gas

She watched some TV and now she's taking a bath
I had a thought

Hypothetically

You meet a young lady
she's adventurous

- You mean like Betty?
- Keep Betty out of it

Different sort of adventurous

- What?
- Nothing, she's singing

- Is that in spanish?
- What I'm driving at is this

- Men needs variety
- I agree with that

This is a deeply flawed argument

The way I see it: If you could get
action every day, that's the win

A guy comes along and says you like beer
but you gotta have beer every day of your life?

Well, why not? I love footbal, that means
I gotta watch it every day? Sure!

Aren't I gonna get tired of watching footbal
and drinking beer day after day all my life?

Maybe, but I'm willing do to the work to find out
that truth and if it turns out that that's the case

- I trust myself to find other interests
- Jim, you know this feeling that you're feeling right now?

Contemptment in the sacred bond of marriage?

No, this restless fever of romantic delusion,
you know is not gonna last, do you?

You know what you are?
- Yea, I'm a cynical bastard

It must be hard work being you but mark my words

- You'll meet a charming young woman
- The hardest thing to find in America

You'll jump on that train, gladly,
you'll go after her ...

Good old Jim, always trying to
drag me down to his level of misery

What he couldnt posibly foresee is that this
charming young woman he was conjuring for me

was presently right next door

Hello
Hi Otto

Taking a bath
Of course I'm alone

Well, I might catch a cold if I dont put something on
but I'll be ready for you, dont you worry

You just come on over
I'll see you when you get here, by.

Wow, you look weird
