Original subtitles

[male presenter] A hit that our listeners have enjoyed for the past decade.

[Kinga] I took the divorce papers to Igor to prison.

[Alicja] He's lucky we only got him eight years.

[upbeat music]

[Zuza] Did you feel that adrenaline? And we're only just getting started.

10 YEARS EARLIER

[Alicja] I've always felt... a strong connection to Robin Hood.

[Kinga] And I've had a crush on him since childhood.

[Alicja] Kinga. Do you know the secret to female friendship?

- I do. - Well?

Similar taste in wine, different taste in men. [chuckles]

A good gang should have good rules.

["Jestem kobietą" by Edyta Górniak quietly on the radio]

Rule number one.

We never do heists for our own benefit.

[fire crackling]

[Kinga] Rule number two.

The gang is Alicja, Kinga and Zuza.

We make all the decisions together.

[Alicja] Rule number three.

Friendship above all.

Ouch!

[Kinga] Good idea with the lipstick pact, huh?

I've always fainted while having it taken.

Ladies.

Welcome to the Green Glove Gang.

[song continues louder]

THE GREEN GLOVE GANG

[song continues louder]

[song ends]

[Igor] Maria.

I'd like to thank you very much.

You've been a very efficient informer for the past months.

Only you made it possible.

Thank you.

[sad, instrumental music]

I told him that you were in Bieszczady.

He said...

He pleaded... that he only wants to get Kinga back.

I didn't mean to betray you.

Don't worry. [chuckles]

We've got traitors galore here.

Where's Tomek?

- [engine revving] - [tires screeching]

[multiple tones for new text messages]

Oh!

THE GREEN GLOVE GANG STOLE VENUS!

Holy Mother of Our Town!

- [song ends abruptly] - [police dogs barking]

You have really hurt my feelings.

[loudspeaker screeching]

Playing cat and mouse is fun and all,

but one shouldn't drag it out.

So please, come out.

For decency's sake! This has been going on for too long!

This is Tomek. If this is important, leave a message or call back later. Bye.

[Zuza sighs]

[suspenseful music]

Excuse me.

If I may offer some advice?

During training, they told us to give short orders.

Army-style.

- [Alfred clears throat] - [loudspeaker screeching]

I'm upset!

If they ask you, you know nothing about anything.

You know nothing.

You were in the club, they took you hostage.

Steal the Venus?

Unheard of. They crossed the line.

They've done a lot of good. Let them get something out of it.

[cart wheels screeching]

Oh. Are you on the side of the Gang or the police?

[waiter] Excuse me?

I asked who you're rooting for?

- Switzerland. - What?

[dog whining]

What's in there?

You mean me?

[Alfred] You? [chuckles]

Here?

Show us the contents of the caddy!

[sinister music]

I knew... you'd be here.

[music intensifies]

[music fades]

[slow, suspenseful music]

[Masarz] Relax, I'll handle this.

- [phone keyboard beeping] - [ringing tone]

[phone ringing]

[Chief] Alfred!

What's going on here, for fucking Masarz's sake?

You were to stay away from this club.

Chief, I'm confident the Gang is inside and is working for Masarz.

- Your badge. - But...

- Your career is over. - I don't think so.

What?

Friendship with a gangster, obstructing the investigation...

Shame on you, chief. And I don't mean the virgin mojito.

I'm taking over.

- But... - No discussion.

You don't say no to a pregnant lady.

Arrest him.

- Come with me. - Hands off!

This way.

[Chief] Unhand me!

Do you know who I am?

- [sighs] - [loudspeaker screeching]

This is Detective Katarzyna Gujska.

This is your last chance.

Vacate the building immediately.

[Zuza] Girls.

[uplifting, instrumental music]

Stealing from con men with you was an honor.

You are the adventure of my life.

Mine too. And let me remind you, I once hooked up with a rock star.

I repeat, come outside with your hands in the air!

It won't work. I've tried.

[metal clanking]

[Masarz] Hold on!

Beginner's luck.

Hold on.

Excuse me.

There's been some... terrible misunderstanding.

If you just let me contact Chief Mirek...

I'm here, Krzyś!

[handcuffs clinking]

[slow, melancholic music with high-pitch vocalizations]

[indistinct conversations]

- [Kinga] Can I have your number, honey? - [police officer] 112.

[police sirens]

[Alfred] Can you confirm it's them?

[Marzena] Yes.

I saw them at the museum, stealing the Venus among the smoke.

[Alfred] Thank you.

You won't weasel out of this now. Where's the figurine?

- What figurine? - Listen, I won't fall for that!

[phone ringing]

Hello?

I'm calling off the alarm. We found it.

How come?

We found Venus.

And the cup.

[quirky, rhythmical music]

"Every lady needs some fun from time to time."

They haven't stolen anything.

What?

[Zuza giggles]

["Venus" by Banamarama playing]

Quickly, she could use a drink.

♪ A goddess on a mountain top ♪

- [Kinga] You have the fake one? - [Zuza] And is "Our Town" a town?

♪ The summit of beauty and love ♪

♪ And Venus was her name ♪

♪ She's got it ♪

♪ Yeah, baby, she's got it ♪

♪ Well, I'm your Venus I'm your fire, at your desire ♪

♪ Yeah, baby, she's got it ♪

[song fades]

[door shuts]

[sinister music]

PARIS

[in French] What an inaccessible woman.

- [in French] What is this? - [in French] I don't understand.

- [in French] I don't understand. - [sinister music continues]

[in French] It's a fake.

[guns clanking]

[in French] Shit!

[bangs and swooshes]

[music fades]

So... this entire heist was never the Gang's idea?

[chuckles]

Just poor women working under threat.

What's more?

- Ultimately, they never stole anything. - [Gujska] Not this time, perhaps.

But there are a few cases to clarify.

They won't weasel out.

That remains to be seen.

[slow, instrumental music]

[rhythmical music with drums]

Um, what do I know?

What's a few dollars or diamonds anyway?

Construction was put on hold.

I've thought it over.

Only idiots prey on poor dogs.

I was an idiot.

The Gang put you out of business.

It wasn't a business.

It was exploitation.

When the children from the orphanage

started writing to me, thanking me for the donation,

that's when I really understood my developer motto.

"We invest in the future."

[gasps] They did more for the image of senior women

than... Cher and Maryla combined.

I'll gladly do some community service.

Please leave the Gang alone.

[crowd] Free the Gang!

- Free the Gang! - Justice must prevail!

Free the Gang! Free the Gang! Free the Gang! Free the Gang!

- Free the Gang! - Release them!

- Free the Gang! Free the Gang! - Justice!

[Alfred] "Alfred, this is my last letter to you."

"Unfortunately, nothing lasts forever,

even in the afterlife."

"I'm proud of who you've become."

"Your heart is in the right place. You're becoming a better, cleverer cop."

"Speaking of cleverness."

"You need to change your methods. If you can't beat them, use them."

"And wear a hat. Fingers crossed! Your mom."

[Alicja] I know I said I would like to live with you in my old age,

but... that's not exactly what I had in mind.

[Zuza] Hmm.

Worst-case scenario, we'll be out after we're 90.

[Kinga] Ninety.

It's a sixty if you twist it around.

[Zuza and Alicja chuckle]

[slow, melancholic music]

Alicja, what are you sensing?

All in all...

All in all, I'm only getting good vibes today.

[music fades]

We can drop the case.

And clear you ladies of all charges.

Under one condition.

From now on, you work for us.

The Green Glove Gang working for the police?

For the people of Our Town.

Then... we also have one condition.

I'm listening.

[Alicja] I think you'll agree

that the real criminals should be punished, yes?

Sure.

Why?

- [Igor] Pearl! Please leave... - [Pearl barking]

[Igor] Pearl!

[Marzena] Hey, Igor.

I got back peanuts I stashed under the floor at the Second Home.

I want to get back in business.

How are your dealings with the Frenchman?

Let me know. [in French] Au revoir!

["Zielono mi" by Andrzej Dąbrowski playing]

[police sirens]

No. I object!

I'm not going back there!

Leave me alone!

[Joasia] More surprising news from the National Gallery.

The Venus of Kazakhstan has returned to the gallery.

There are more questions than answers, but what's most crucial right now

is that art historians have confirmed the authenticity of both artifacts.

[upbeat music]

I confirm.

[shutter clicks]

The Venus from the basement is the Venus of Kazakhstan.

There's also the case of the vanishing cup,

which was stolen for one day from the gallery.

Is the vicar of the Our Town Cathedral somehow involved?

[with distorted voice] The vicar always talked about wanting to get back the cup,

that the gallery unfairly took it and entered it onto the heritage list,

so has to drink wine out of a common crystal chalice.

Please, leave me alone!

Please answer the question!

This is slander!

But were you the one who wrote a letter to the Gang?

No comment.

[Joasia] Meanwhile, echoes of the Gang's activities continue to surprise us.

[Zofia] Ladies and gentlemen. It's not easy being a lonely senior.

It is widely accepted that we can either die in solitude

or end up in a nursing home,

where we become infantile because we're treated like children.

This way of thinking needs to be changed.

We want to stick together.

That's why we're turning the senior citizen's club

into Our Town's first senior co-housing project,

named after...

[loud horn-like signal]

...the Green Glove Gang.

GREEN HOME SENIOR CO-HOUSING

- [applause] - We should get an eco-friendly subsidy.

Since we're green.

The best place for active seniors

to spend their golden years.

[applause]

GREEN HOME SENIOR CO-HOUSING

I heard they're making a TV show about the Gang.

Here you go. One hot dog. Two fifty. Thank you, enjoy.

- [Tomek] Thanks. - Hello, welcome.

And this one's for you, sir. Two fifty, please.

[Tomek] Should you have a job for me, don't forget to let me know.

[chuckles] Only legal stuff.

- Yeah. For example... - [signal interference]

Hello? Can you hear me?

Hell...

Hello?

[single beep]

[Zuza] Hi.

I'm recording this because...

I'm leaving for South America tomorrow.

[sad, melancholic music]

Probably forever.

I wanted to apologize to you.

For all the bad things.

I've been a lousy mother.

Not a day goes by that I don't think about it.

If... there's one thing I dream of in this life,

it's to reconcile with you.

If you'd like that too, then...

I'll bring you to me.

I love you.

I wanted to return the car.

- You know I was the one who told Marzena? - I do.

I'm sorry, Mom.

I don't hold a grudge.

[slow, melancholic music continues]

I'm sorry for so many things.

[Tomek] Hey!

This really was the best vacation of my life.

[chuckles] Mine too.

[slow, ethereal music]

[music ends]

[Kinga] It didn't mean anything! We had a deal!

Stop staring! Read my lips.

It was a meaningless one-night stand. Why the hell did you bring those flowers?

But it's for Alicja.

- [door opens] - Oh.

Alic...

Oh.

[quirky, rhythmical music]

They're for you, ma'am.

- From the boss. - Thank you.

[Masarz] Because roses are passé.

COFFEE IN 698 DAYS?

Should I pass on something tomorrow?

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

[sighs] What an arrogant generation. In my day, they brought flowers after sex.

[slow, romantic music]

[music fades]

2 MONTHS LATER

[Bogdan] We're all fed.

Changed into PJs.

- [Gujska giggles] - Tadzio, wave to Mommy.

Sweet dreams, pumpkin. You too, Tadeusz.

[Bogdan giggles]

[slow, calming music]

[music ends]

[Gujska] I'm here, Alfred.

Finally, Gujska. Come and see.

It's the best idea I've had in years.

Or maybe even in my entire life.

Now, they'll be at our beck and call.

Are you spending public money again?

Trust me, Gujska.

This combines PR with pure pragmatism.

[upbeat music]

Our Town... will finally be ours.

[slow, melancholic music with high-pitch vocalizations]

"Our Town's first senior co-housing named after the Green Glove Gang

is inspiring seniors all across the country."

Oh, I'm going to miss them.

Soon, we might join them.

Maybe you will!

[music continues in the background]

To nature, which you can't cheat.

To friendship... that never fails.

To the Gang.

[music fades]

[upbeat music]

[chuckles] I wouldn't give this up for any elixir of youth.

Girls!

["Luz-blues, w niebie same dziury" by Daria Zawiałow playing throughout]

Fuck me.
