Original subtitles

I do. - I now pronounce you husband and wife.

Who is this Anna Macrander, or Eckhardt?

I'm almost done with her.

They're getting back at me. Even through you.

One more time and I'll forgive you.

This bloke will never give up.

If I can find more proof... - Goodbye.

Test, test. USB, USB, USB...

if anyone makes inquiries about things related to Bj6rn...

or the transfer, it means trouble.

Antedating, transferring shares to Bj6rn via Panama. What do you think?

You're lying. Go away, I don't believe you.

I want to be here for you. And for me.

I don't know.

You want to report fraud. - And voluntary manslaughter.

Couwenberg called the shots. Steenhouwer was his executioner.

There are four pending charges against you. My guess is five years.

His texts. - He's insane.

Exactly. - I think you can help me.

I know you don't trust me. But I'll prove to you that I'm worthy. You'll see.

Betrayal

GUILT

Bye, darling.

Is it time? - Come on, let's get changed.

Mum? Why are you doing this?

I don't know why.

Willem Steenhouwer? - Yes?

Please sign here.

There you go. - Thanks.

Suspect subpoena

My condolences.

Of course you weren't... But that doesn't matter.

My condolences. - I don't see...

It's a complicated story. We got in touch a few times these last weeks.

I'll go pay my last respects.

What are you doing here? - Paying my respects, Dad. Remember?

You didn't even know him. - Let's say we had a thing in common.

How terrible.

An unfortunate accident.

Now you see you never know.

He was going to find Wendy's address.

You were going to ask him, weren't you?

Does it really matter now, Bj6rn? - Yes.

Look there. Isn't that nice?

Very beautiful.

I think we're done. Come along, let's go.

I'll see you later.

Bye, darling. - Bye.

My condolences.

Fine.

Look at this.

He won't stop.

Will you men ever give up?

Us men? Not all men are the same.

What now? - We just stick to the plan.

I don't know. - About what?

If it was a good idea. - But we promised Dad.

I just don't know anymore.

Did you talk to Reinier?

No. - Why don't you go to uni? Are you afraid?

Of course I'm not.

Thank you.

I can still see him walk into the court room.

A know-it-all, destined for high-profile cases.

He never had enough files to take home.

If anyone knows, it's me. - You never know.

He could have made it very far, maybe to attorney general.

And look at him now.

Can I ask you something? - Sure.

He mentioned... He said something.

It's not clear to me. - Do tell.

I got the impression that he was on to something. He said:

I'm going to prove something.

I didn't understand, really. I thought it was about work.

But after the complaint he... - Was off the case?

I wouldn't know. I thought he was in insurance.

It's terribly sad to see how things unfolded between the two of you.

He was quite an unusual man.

But nevertheless I've always had a soft spot for him. And for you.

I can't believe this. And with him, of all people.

Do they have a case? - I'm afraid they do.

Voluntary manslaughter? I wonder how it will end. What's our plan?

182, Criminal Code. Go to the examining judge.

Mr Couwenberg? - That's me.

Mr Couwenberg senior?

One moment, please.

Mr Couwenberg? - What do you want?

A letter for you. Please sign here.

Thank you.

Suspect subpoena

Bloody hell. - What is it?

Fine, don't tell me.

It feels so strange.

Yes, my sweet.

It's just like he's in his office, at work.

Are you okay?

Alright. So...

You can get your things, and your dad's stuff you want to keep.

Just take anything you want, for now or later.

Macrander...

I'll answer it.

This is not a good time. - I won't be long.

Too bad, because I was...

Thanks, sweetheart.

Hey, will you go to the funeral? - I don't know. It's...

Thank you, Bj6rn.

Okay, I'm sorry.

Great atmosphere. - We're having the best time.

What can I do for you?

About that thing. - What thing?

The company, I mean.

What about it?

I don't think it's right anymore.

I see, so I heard. - You did? How do you know?

I gather you went to the notary. - So he told you already?

What is your problem? We discussed it in great detail.

Yes, but because of the situation with Bj6rn and his little whore, I...

And I just...

Like I said, it doesn't feel right.

Hold your horses. You start dithering, then you sign the contract.

A few hours later I lose a million Euros to that slag because of you.

And now you're telling me 'it doesn't feel right'?

What are you doing? - Nothing.

Are you bored or what? - No.

Do you have plans yet? - Meh.

Got any plans yet?

Plans?

What will you do now?

Why? - The legal procedure will take some time.

I'm still involved, but your part is over. - I don't know yet.

You're being vague. Very vague.

I'm sure it will work out. I know people.

It won't stop when you stop when?

I want to quit. I want out.

I changed my mind. - For what reason?

I just don't. - I'm afraid that's your problem.

I won't start all over again.

I can't. Or else the Intelligence Team sleuths will come after me.

It has to be done. - Not in a million.

Fine, I'll talk to my solicitor.

Great. Hand over the keys to your restaurant, please.

Why should I? - Are you mad? You loaned company funds.

You leave, I get the money back. This instant.

Nonsense. That wasn't part of our deal. - Then you better read the fine print.

So if you don't mind, I have some business to attend to.

Cheerio.

Hey. Reinier?

What? - Will you stay this way? Ignoring me?

What do you want me to say? I'm sorry. - You're asking me?

I feel terrible. I was so stupid. I'm sorry.

How is what's his name? - He's a complete ass.

I'm happy you found out soon. - He tricked me. He's a creep.

Sure Marit, it was all his fault. - I don't want this.

What? - We can't be over just like that.

It just can't. - I guess you'll have to get used to it.

Incoming message: Marit

Go ahead. I'll catch up with you.

I thought you didn't want me to come. But I couldn't stay away.

Are you alright?

How is Menno? - Fine, considering what happened.

You rang. What did you want to say?

I now know Menno's accident was not an attack.

I'm glad to hear that.

I wanted...

I'm off to Menno.

Are you still at the hotel? I'll come over tonight. Okay?

Loan agreement

What's that? - Nothing.

Shouldn't you be at the restaurant? - Not today.

You filthy...

Goodbye.

It sounds horrible, but I'm okay living without him.

The thing is...

I have a son who has now lost his father.

Which is why we can't go on like this.

And there is another reason.

Thank you.

After all the mistakes I made in my life, and I made a lot of them, I now have...

Anna... - I don't want to hear it.

I need to tell you, I'm afraid.

I've been sued and chances are I'll get convicted.

You've been sued? How? And by whom?

Anna. - I thought you were partners.

It's a complicated story.

You mean a prison sentence?

How long? - Two years, or perhaps even longer.

But Why?

I started digging in the past, things came to light.

Which are now turning against me.

I hope to get it right with one last try. - Two years.

I asked you a few times to wait for me. That's over now. I can't expect you to.

So? - My dear Iris...

I don't know if we will have a future.

But if we do, it's in your hands. It's not up to me anymore.

So that's the deal?

Yes, of course.

I will. - Thanks, Dad.

Love you.

Hi, Joost. Is it too late for me to call?

I know, but this is another matter.

Can you check something now?

When am I going back to school? - By the time you're feeling better.

Would you like to go back? - I think so.

So I won't think about Dad all the time.

Tomorrow you're back in your own bed. - Alright.

Summer holidays are about to start.

Six weeks of doing nothing.

Good mothers plan this in advance, but you have a last-minute Mum.

What shall we do?

Have fun together.

Mr Steenhouwer. You're being accused of the following of fences.

Firstly, joining a criminal organisation, section 140 of the Dutch Criminal Code.

Second of fence is bribery. Section number 177.

The third is forgery of documents, section 225.

The fourth of fence is intimidation, section 285.

And the fifth is voluntary manslaughter, section 307.

One reminder: you must tell the truth.

Since you're a solicitor you're familiar with your right of non-disclosure.

The victim's daughter has presented the Prosecution Service with much evidence.

I'll present samples from the file, and will proceed to ask questions.

The side letter. Couwenberg Investments BV, hereafter called Cl BV...

is hereby represented by master W. Steenhouwer, and Balthus Beton BV...

represented by J.B. Balthus...

when the claims were taken over by Cl BV.

Mr Macrander's farewell letter...

By these two criminals, who ruined everything. The world has turned black.

Farewell, my dear boy and beautiful girl. You were dearest to me.

I will treasure you until my dying moment.

With love, forever your real father.

Did you know about the death threats? - No.

And that Mr Lampe was sent after Mr Macrander?

I wasn't aware of it.

Did you draft this side letter? - By order of Mr Couwenberg.

He asked you to take care of business matters, and not make illegal deals.

It doesn't work that way. Mr Couwenberg is the owner.

He signed all documents.

But he relied entirely on Mr Steenhouwer's legal advice.

Did you misadvise in order to mislead him? - Absolutely not.

He knew the ins and outs.

Being a solicitor yourself, what is your professional opinion of the agreement?

I advise my client not to answer this question. We'd like to confer first.

Right. We saw an extract from Mr Macrander's farewell letter.

He states that your and Mr Couwenberg's conduct led to his tragic decision.

I'd like to make a comment on that.

I'm advised to refer to my right of non-disclosure.

Sunny holiday destinations

Who do you think you are? If you go to the police I'll kill you, piece of shit.

Is that so? Moron.

Weasel. Ugly piece of haddock.

Don't even try. Don't you dare or I'll kill you.

I'm gobsmacked. This was six years ago. Six years.

This clearly is intimidation, isn't it?

Tell you what, I'm from Amsterdam. It's in the culture.

I have a temper. I get into arguments. So I may start cursing and swearing.

Nobody takes it seriously. People know me. Preposterous.

Did you send Mr Lampe after Mr Macrander on 23 April 2009?

Of course I didn't. Joachim was a little boy compared to Macrander. Bollocks.

So what was he doing there? - Beats me.

After hours employees have the right to do whatever they want in this country.

Don't you think it's odd... - Mr Judge?

No evidence whatsoever has been found...

that Mr Couwenberg ordered Mr Lampe to retaliate in his name.

Mr Couwenberg, about this side letter...

You signed this document, didn't you? - I always did when Willem wrote it.

Without reading it first?

Perhaps you don't know, but he was my son-in-law at the time.

We have a long history. I trusted him like one of my own.

You can't shift the blame to your employee. It's your company.

Like I said, he was family. You can trust family. I couldn't have been more wrong.

You ordered my client to take on a claim in secret. Am I right about that?

You can't expect me to remember details from six years ago.

I have more than enough on my mind these days.

You were convicted for blackmail of a municipal councillor and was imprisoned.

The PPS has a substantial file with your name on it.

So a thief can't learn from his mistakes? - I object.

I ask you to include this in the record. - Consider it done.

Now about Mr Macrander's farewell letter.

He states that you and Mr Steenhouwer ruined his company...

and caused him to make his fateful decision.

I was shocked when I heard the news. But this is ridiculous.

We're just doing a job here.

Business is tough, indeed. Not everyone can cope with that.

They don't have a leg to stand on.

What? - Manslaughter is out of the question.

But the other counts...

That clip doesn't prove anything. You said so yourself.

I'm afraid it may turn against you. And there was an eye witness.

Plus you signed that side letter.

So what can I expect?

I can't rule out you will be held on remand.

I won't go back inside, I swear. I just got released, dammit.

You better conjure up a plan.

There you are.

Yes. - What took you so long?

So this is your mate's place? - It is.

Will she be back soon? - Not for a while.

Alright, then. Shall we go in?

Could you please tell me why this is so important to you?

Are you in love with me? - Did you think so?

Why are you here? I bet you can get any girl you like.

Maybe I can.

Don't you know when to stop, arsehole? Let's talk.

Are you alright?

Are you happy with your new lawyers? - How would you know?

Why did you have to go to the police? - I didn't.

But that's none of your business.

Why did you want me to come home?

Alex...

We have a problem. - What problem?

You know, I had this very simple idea.

Why does that worry me? - So I couldn't resist, you know?

No, I don't understand one bit. What's going on?

You do things your way. - Get to the point.

It's about Steenhouwer.

He took my father, so I went after his daughter.

His daughter? - Her name is Marit.

I just messed with her mind.

She doesn't have anything to do with it. - No, but did I?

Back then.

I never thought she would go and tell her dad.

Most girls are too embarrassed. - Most girls?

Idiot. You stupid idiot.

We talked about this, remember?

You knew... - We didn't.

You have your pills, so just take them.

Blockhead.

Psycho.

I'm not a psycho. - Yes, you are. You are a psychopath.

A big, stupid psychopath.

Why are you here at this hour?

I just needed to think. - What about?

Interior decorations.

Mum, please stop telling me silly stories.

I'll keep my problems to myself, dear. - You know what? Share them.

Remember what you said?

Me? About what? - This place.

I don't know if I can keep it. Or if I even want to.

It's Granddad. What is it this time? It's about money, right?

But the thing is...

The other day I thought you were right about this.

Right about what? - Just like you said.

What?

Because what he did to Dad, and us...

we should take advantage of him and his money.

He's highly gifted. Extremely.

Which makes him a skilled hacker.

But also a difficult person, easily bored, or distracted.

His intelligence comes with a number of blind spots.

So he's a social cripple. - He can't handle rejection, right?

How do you... - You told me.

That's how he got into trouble. - Did I say that?

Only you didn't mention what kind.

What was he after? - Nice try.

He's on medication, isn't he? What for?

Sorry, I won't... - My daughter got some funny messages.

Very nasty and uncanny stuff.

He forced her to go on a date with him. Not very nice.

My son and I saw them. - You think...

I asked my solicitor to check him out, and he came up with a conviction.

Of almost two years ago. He has quite a record.

Stalking, cyberstalking. He received treatment.

Now he's on probation.

Are you trying to make a deal? An exchange of goods?

Blackmail is a specialty of yours.

Think so? - You haven't changed since Couwenberg.

Can you recall why I accepted your offer?

I want that man in jail for a long time.

What about you? You were innocent?

Did you really think I didn't know when you showed me that picture of your father?

You thought I would help you lift the lid off a thing I can't seem to escape.

Maybe I want to take my responsibility.

In what way? - That way.

So what about Alex?

What do you think? Should he take responsibility?

Or shouldn't he?

It's me. Where are you? Call me back ASAP.

We have things to decide.

Dad? - What is it, my boy?

Can I ask something? - What?

It's about Wendy.

What do you want to know? - Do you know anyone else who could...

You should forget about that Wendy.

You read the letter she wrote. - Yes.

She returned her ring. It's over. She won't come back.

Yes, but maybe you know someone else who can...

Not in a million years. I know about women. It's no use, I swear.

But I'm bored. I don't even enjoy gaming anymore.

I don't know what to do.

Maybe I should go, too.

Where? - I don't know. Just leave here.

Hello, hello, hello.

Test, test, test. USB, USB, USB...

So all shares are yours? - But it also says Granddad is still CEO.

But... - I shouldn't do this. Nor want it.

Why? You wanted this since the situation with Dad.

Don't you get it? It has my signature.

I get to deal with the consequences. - Is that a bad thing?

Pepijn's fatal accident. I just don't trust it.

It says it's Bj6rn's, and yada yada yada.

Hey, what's this? You have a concussion. Off to bed, now.

Grab your stuff. Go pack a bag. - What?

Pack my stuff? Why? - We're leaving.

Right now? - Yes.

Where are we going? - Far away.

Far away? - Yes, far from here.

You know the types. They charge twice my rates.

How do they do it? - She's one tough woman.

Even though he doesn't stand a chance you may still succeed.

That man. He was back to his old self again.

And it's all my fault. - Of course. Because you framed him.

You'll see I have to pay for everything. - You won't.

Got your passport? - Yep.

Are we going abroad? - I'll tell you in the car.

What are you doing? - I won't stop until you're gone.

It's practically a confession. - Which implies I'm guilty.

This is bad news.

Don't you have Willem's number? - No.

Bj6rn? Where are you? - Don't. Keep quiet.

You better tell your father.
