Original subtitles

We no longer exist.

That's what it feels like.

Me and the kids...

He shuts everyone out. Closed like a mussel.

I've tried to understand. But...

I do not want it anymore.

I want out of here.

I'm almost 40. If I don't do it now, then...

Just do your pee.

Good job, Shelley. Considerable.

Styx.

Oh, you're here.

My nuts are freezing off. Do you have my money?

I have something better.

Rolex, 24 carats, white diamonds. That's the real shit.

You don't want to cheat on me, do you? -We're mates after all.

That's exactly why.

Good. If it floats, it's a real one.

He's sinking. -That's a fucking Rolex.

Money.

So, when are there checks? -You ask difficult things.

Is it the fucking black one? Is he on to something?

If he figures something out, you have to... -That black guy is my problem. Yes?

Good. When is the next delivery? -Tomorrow.

Leather jackets from Gucci, Louboutins, Armani...

I can put something aside for you. Something for your wife? A nice jacket?

Just tell your bosses that nothing is planned this week.

Certainly. If something goes wrong, my bosses don't laugh about it.

I'm not going to cheat on a mate.

Come on, Shelley.

Shhh, Shelley.

What's wrong, boy?

Stay.

Police. Stay.

Show yourself. There's nowhere to go.

No no no...

Hey, sweetheart. What is that now? Are you alone? Where is Raf?

Shit.

Wouldn't it be better to give that dog an injection? He's just getting in the way.

Hey, aren't you in bed yet? And it's your dad's dog, isn't it?

Then you also give him an injection. -Isn't Dad home yet?

He's lying drunk in the gutter somewhere. -Vic...

Stop gaming. It's bedtime.

He doesn't mean it, Shelley. Good dog.

The most beautiful moment of the day.

I can't see it anymore, but I can feel it. Thanks for being so early.

Don't mention it. -Is Raf coming today?

There's nothing there, right? You would tell me if there is something between you and Raf, right?

What should there be, Marcus?

You have to promise me that you will take good care of him when I am gone.

I still feel like he's a bit of a lost soul.

He never really got over it.

He hasn't been himself for five years.

Of course it wasn't easy for you either, but...

I'm so glad he has you. -I'll go get Rhian.

Being washed by two beautiful women. There are worse things.

Yes Yes.

Why don't you just tell Marcus that you want a divorce?

And break his heart just before he leaves?

When it gets too hard...

You know it's not customary here to nurse your own family.

No. I want to be there for him.

He has always been there for me.

I will go.

laugh

Works out well. I have a new invoice from the institution.

Sorry, it's been in the water.

Yes? And you certainly will too.

I expected you last night.

I experienced something...

I thought it was game over.

Well, I would miss you.

Are not you cold?

No.

If you want, you can go upstairs. Be decent. Drying and all that.

Yes thank you.

Are you gone yet?

Miss, can I see a doctor? -Alright sir. Can I have your data?

You don't understand me. I need a doctor. -You must first enter your details...

Fuck that data. I need a doctor. -Mr. Styx?

It's Mr. Styx, right? -Yes.

You don't recognize me. -Yes. Doctor Vrancken, from dad.

I'll take care of you, sir. Just follow me. -He must register first.

How is your father? -Good...

Not good. He has set a date.

He has now also become blind. He wants euthanasia.

Yes, that tumor was persistent.

What can I do for you?

Yes, we'll... -Wait.

What's wrong with me, doctor?

We will first...

Is the device broken? -Certainly not.

You have no heartbeat. -That's impossible?

I walk around here. I'm sitting here talking to you.

I can't explain it. It's impossible.

What are you going to do? -Take some samples.

Samples. From the tissue around the wounds.

Are you going to cut my body with that? -It's dying tissue.

Your device is broken, I say. Your device is broken.

Mr. Styx?

Shelly...

Mr. Styx, doctor Vrancken here. You are undoubtedly panicking right now.

But I want to help you. In all discretion, of course. You have my number...

Raf, this is the fifth or sixth time I've called. I have somewhere to go after my shift.

Can you pick up the kids from school for once? Otherwise I'll call Rhian.

Good morning, colleague. Can we expect you today?

Your shift started two hours ago.

Ah, you're awake? -Commissioner...

a man was murdered on the picket fence last night.

How so? -I was there. I've seen it.

Thank you.

Chief Inspector. Are you sure you didn't dream?

There's nothing to be found here. -Are there no witnesses?

Shots were heard, yes. -But no one saw anything.

Can you describe the victim? You said he was strangled.

A man in his early forties. Small, inconspicuous.

Clothes? -Gray. Some kind of uniform.

And those orange shoes, sneakers. -Okay. And the killer?

Dressed completely in black. And a mask.

A mask? -White, distorted face.

A carnival mask?

Why didn't you call for backup?

I forgot my cell phone at home. Sorry.

Well, you catch a masked killer with a body we have yet to find.

You walked after him. And then?

He shot me.

Shot back? Or did you also leave your service weapon at home?

I didn't get the chance.

I lost my gun. -You are what?

In the water, I think.

Good. I will pass on the descriptions of the perpetrator and victim.

And if you can give us a more detailed description of the mask?

Or a sketch.

And report the loss of your service weapon...

so that an official report can be drawn up.

Styx?

Are you OK?

Suspicious story. He left his cell phone at home

so we can't trace it. -Thank you, Inspector.

Good catch.

Do you still have a carrot like that? -This is my last one.

Say, how are things at home?

Good. Isabelle has a lawyer. She's leaving me.

You can at least pretend to be surprised.

How much did you drink last night?

Soon you're going to say I shot my own hand.

With that Glock you lost in the water?

Thank you.

Alcohol doesn't erase the past, right? You should know that after all these years.

I'll remember, Mother Teresa.

Greetings to the children. And to Isabelle.

What do you think of my new shoes? -Good.

That pimple face is looking at you again.

Let's go.

Beautiful girl.

Rhian is coming to pick me up. -I called to say it wasn't necessary.

Are you sober?

Come on friend, get in. We still have to get your sister.

Wow, beautiful.

Can I go gaming?

Bye, mom. -Hey, honey.

New hairdo?

Shelley came home alone last night.

And there's something wrong with your hand.

It's nothing. -It's always nothing.

If I told you what happened last night, you wouldn't believe me.

Give it a try.

Sorry, I'm really hungry.

Chief?

I was wondering if I could get some money too...

since Gino has made sure it's safe tonight.

Just give him one. -Say it. Which side do you choose?

Chief, I'm just trying to help. -Left or right?

Left.

Come on, buddy.

That one time we don't tell Styx...

That still doesn't prove anything.

Why did you change your hair?

Sometimes grown-ups want something new.

Sorry.

Fine, eat. Apparently we've already started.

Raf...

Come on, go. Go.

Come on, come on. Go.

Fuck.

Fuck, police. -Shit, shit.

Really and truly? Fucking drunk.

Are you okay, Dad?

You're so cold.

Daddy, you're scaring me, let me go. Dad, you scare me.

Sorry, girl. Sorry. Sorry.

Should I get Mom? -No, you shouldn't go get mommy.

Go to sleep.

Fran, don't worry. It will be all right. Go to sleep.

Hello, Dr. Vrancken.

Come on. Come on, take it outside. Come.

To get up. Hurry, get outside.

Men. It's okay.

Will you come outside with me?

United Kingdom?

No, not the UK, but...

They take you to a safe place.

Watch your head.

I'm scared, doctor.

I'm afraid of what's inside me.

I was just about to give my daughter a hug, but something came up in me...

Something dangerous.

What's happening to me?

Help me, doctor. Please.

First of all, I would like to apologize.

When you came to me this morning, I treated you like a case.

A medical miracle. At least not as a human being who needs help.

Why am I saying this? Suppose we take you to a hospital later.

The response will be the same there. Everyone will want a part of you.

Within five minutes, all medical ethics will be thrown out the window.

No one will care about the person, the patient anymore. Human.

Let alone his environment, his family.

There may be another possibility.

Yes, my work is my passion.

Treating patients, certainly, but also medical research.

And here I have the freedom...

which I do not have in a hospital or an external laboratory.

I can help you here, Mr. Styx.

And this is where you can help humanity.

How come?

You don't realize yet how exceptional you are.

No.

Dead matter becoming alive again, that's pretty much...

the Holy Grail that we have been searching for since time immemorial.

You are actually the gate that provides access to...

a new scientific dimension.

You want to make me a guinea pig. -I want to know what exactly is happening to you.

So a guinea pig. Should I stay here then?

Well, I want to be able to follow you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

And guinea pig, well, well, of course you are that by definition.

You can't in your condition...

Look, I offer you all the comfort you need here.

And, not unimportantly: you are safe here.

Is anyone else besides yourself aware of your condition?

No one. -Then I suggest we keep it that way.

Nobody needs to know. Not even your family.

Until we know a little more ourselves.

Mr. Styx?

Can you heal me?

Then we first need to know what is going on with you. And that requires research.

Sorry, doctor. I don't feel like being a guinea pig.

Hello, Amanda? -Styx, you have to help me.

Hello? Hello?

Goddamnit. Sorry, doctor.

More details are known about the police action

in the port of Ostend this night.

Three men and several crew members of a cargo ship have been

arrested for human smuggling. A fourth man is still on the run.

More than a dozen transmigrants were arrested in the action.

Goddamnit.

Fuck.

Goddamnit. Girl anyway. What did you take again?

Styxie. -Mandate anyway. Goddamnit. Come.

Styx, Styx...

Here, girl. You need sugar. Drink.

You screwed me.

You screwed me, Styx. -What are you doing here?

Do you know what they're going to do to me? I'm fucked.

There would be no police checks.

You don't realize what they're going to do to me. I'm dead.

Did I screw you? It wasn't just the Chinese Rolexes this time.

Styxie...

Ginootje... -Styxie.

Hey. -Girl, come.

Fuck.

Styx.

Styx?

My arm.

Styx?

Styxie.

Styxie, sorry.

Gino forced me to call you.

Sorry. Sorry, Styxie.

What is?

What did you... What did you do?

Styx.

Whiskey.

Accident?

Thank you. One more for later.

Chief.

Gino, Gino...

It wasn't my fault.

He had said nothing was planned this week. I swear.

Suddenly those cops were there. I couldn't help it... My arm.

Let me go. Let me go. Chief, I swear.

It was that cop's fault. Chief, please. Chief.

Yes...

Isabelle...

You're right. I was not there. I was dead inside.

But that's all about to change now. -Have you been drinking?

No. I haven't been drinking. I just want to say that it will be like before.

Before everything went to shit.

Come on, Isabelle, how good we were together, you and I?

We just need to revive it.

You cannot breathe new life into something that is dead.

It's over, Raf.

We will say goodbye to your father together. He deserves that.

And then it's done.

Honey... -No.

It's just too late.

It's time to let each other go. -We can try again, right?

What else are we here for? -I don't want to try anymore.

I haven't done anything else for five years, since.

I met someone else.

Later in the night variable to heavily cloudy weather with a high chance of precipitation.

Temperatures fluctuate between 2 and 6 degrees, which

means it remains slightly cooler than in recent days.

Tomorrow we will see a few clear spells, maybe even a little sun here and there...
