All language subtitles for Lolas Secret (1984)

Brenda? No, no, you don't know me.

That is, you don't know my name.

No, I've got to be more decisive,
otherwise I'll never get to home base.

Oh, Brenda.

I couldn't take my eyes off you
for a moment at the club today.

And I think you were aware of me too.

Am I right?

Now do you remember me?

Of course you do.

I'm also a member of the club.

I'm Carla's cousin. You know her.

She's the one who told me your name.

Well, I was thinking, what would you
say to our seeing each other again?

Get to know each other a little bit better.

We could talk about things, if you like.

Would tomorrow afternoon suit you?
Say, late afternoon towards evening?

I'll leave the place up to you.

Where would you prefer to meet me?

Watch out when you come down to earth.

You'd better take it nice and slow.

I'd hate to see you bruise your bum.

Funny jerk.

Oh, Brenda, I'm all alone
and no one understands.

I think I'll end up going to Argentina.

Or to Tahiti, among the
natives in some far-off village.

Do you really find it so
odd that a woman like me,

who has systematically explored and adored
every square inch of your wonderful body,

could still feel a sexual
charge when near you?

Oh, Steve.

Ivy, come on. Even Casanova
would be worn out by now.

Are you quite certain?

Sweetheart, without
a shadow of a doubt,

you're the sexiest
businesswoman in the world.

Reacts in on the sexy part, of course.

So that's all I am to
you? Just the sex object?

Ivy, for God's sake, don't cry. It's
already quite damp enough out here.

You know quite well such a
thought never entered my head.

All I'm trying to say is
that do try and remember

you're going to London
to catch a plane tomorrow,

and you'd do well to get some sleep.

How will I manage without you?

I was just thinking the same thing, too.

Not too sure about that.

I have an awful feeling you'll
get on quite well without me.

Ivy, you might trust me just a little.

No, I won't forget.

Have I ever missed being present
at the corporation board meeting?

No, Albert's staying here.

The new housekeeper should appear tomorrow.

Well, as far as the other servants are
concerned, I'll see to that on my return.

No, he's very well.

Oh, if only you could see him, you'd agree.

He's a delightful young man, he really is.

What do you mean, where is he?

He's here, where else would he be?

Albert?

Albert!

Albert! Darling!

Albert?

Albert, darling, my one and only love.

Mommy leaves tomorrow
and you hide yourself away.

On the contrary, you
were immersed in looking at

clauses and contracts
all the time with Steve.

Oh, it's been one of those exhausting days.

How will I manage in London without you?

I was just thinking the same thing too.

Oh, I'm not so sure about that.

I have an awful feeling you're
going to get on quite well without me.

Angus for heaven's sake
we're going to be late for my

train to London. We have
plenty of time madam Angus

Your optimism doesn't impress me one bit

My leather bag

With my makeup. Where
is it? It's already in the

car with the luggage.
I'm sure you're right. Oh

Madam new housekeepers
due to arrive this

morning. Well, never
mind the new housekeeper

I'm certainly not going
to put off my trip just

because a servant isn't
very punctual as you wish

But Albert where has
Albert disappeared to now

Oh bird my darling, oh come to me
sweetheart give your mother a kiss. Mm-hmm

Now remember look
after yourself I'm more than

certain that you'll get
on very well without me

Be a good boy and don't
leave the house unless

Angus is with you and
at the end of the holidays

He'll take you back to college

Goodbye, darling. I'll call you

Should I stop the car?

No, no. Drive on, Angus.
Drive on. There isn't time.

You talk to her when
you get back, all right?

And I repeat I don't take
orders from a chauffeur

If mrs. Stapleton decides
otherwise, I certainly won't oppose

her wishes. However till
that time i'll do as I think best

Hmm, you hear that? As she thinks best.

Don't be so idiotic.

Albert is quite old enough to
be able to take care of himself.

That's not up to you to decide.

This house has been entrusted to my care,

and I intend to run
it in the way I see fit.

I've chosen the guest suite.

It fulfills my needs perfectly.

And I advise you to get one thing straight.

I have no intention of becoming
one of your easy conquests.

You're just not my type.

Is that clear?

Are you angry? Were you arguing with Angus?

No. A little difference
of opinion, that's all.

But nothing of any importance.

Oh, by the way, do you
have any objections to my

sleeping in the guest
suite next to your room?

No, on the contrary.

I'm so glad.

All rotten growth must be eradicated.

Otherwise it might destroy healthy plants.

Listen to me.

There isn't a lot of difference between
this garden and the world in which we live.

Even among mankind.

The parasites must be eliminated.

That's a lot of stupid nonsense.

Yes, the world sure would be better.

I'm only trying to
open his eyes, that's all.

He'll learn in his own good time.

Now finish your work and get on your way.

I'm sure to come back in
a few days for the roses.

Otherwise...

the green fly will destroy them all.

Listen.

You come back when I tell you to.

Is that clear?

Look after yourself, boy.

See you soon, Seamus.

Can you explain why it is
you always treat him so badly?

His so-called jokes irritate me.

Say, what did he mean about
that story about the parasites?

Was he mad at you for something?

Don't take any notice of him.

He's just a crazy old man.

The truth is that nobody
seems to like you too much.

And particularly Lola.

Oh, that cow.

She gives the impression of being
difficult to make, but it's all pretense.

She plays the sharp little Puritan miss,

but at the right moment she'll
be throwing herself all over me.

Lola?

Every time I move my head my eyes hurt

Perhaps I've gone and caught a cold
or maybe it's blue. What do you think?

I thought of washing my
hair, but maybe I'd better not.

What do you think of me?

I really don't know yet.

Do you think that I'm too easygoing?

Oh no, no, I didn't think that at all.
It's just I don't know you very well.

As far as I'm concerned, I
feel I've known you for ages.

Would you accept my skirt?

Am I embarrassing you?

No.

I mean, I...

Never seen an almost naked woman?

No. Yes, yes, of course.

Just once. A long time ago.

But that doesn't count then, does it?

Would you give me a towel, please?

There's one on the chair.

If... if you put your hand
around the door, I'll pass it to you.

Albert! You disappoint me.

Why is that?

From the fact that you seemed
to have so little trust in me.

I'm not about to seduce you.

Unless you want me to.

Well then, what are you waiting for?

Go on, bring it here.

As you can see, I can't get up.

Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof.

Lola.

Oh, Lola.

I want you to run away with me.

I want to take you to... to Argentina.

Or perhaps to Tahiti.

Lola.

Just you and me in some forgotten village.

Oh, Lola.

Albert, would you like to
come into town with me?

I'm going to collect some provisions.

No.

As you wish.

Yes, just like you're
doing at this very moment.

Come here.

And help me.

I'd like to get to know you better.

What would you like to know about me?

Everything about your
family and your parents.

But above all about you.

I've had three fathers.

The one that lasted the
longest stayed with us

from my eighth to my
sixteenth year and then left.

I had another one before that
and another one afterwards.

And your mother?

She was an actress.

Was she a famous actress?

No.

She only played small parts, I'm afraid.

Now unfortunately she drinks too much.

I couldn't bear it.

That's the principal reason
why I had to leave her.

I always told her that
she'd ruin her health

with alcohol, but she'd
never listen to me.

And then finally I
realized that that was

what she wanted, so I
stopped lecturing her.

But does she still act?

Yes, sometimes.

In run-down Christmas shows.

A rose. How very romantic of you.

Lola, what's the matter with you?

What is it?

Come and sit down.

Come on, over here.

There.

Tell me, what is it?

Are you all right?

Go into the kitchen.

You'll find a small green bottle

in the dresser

in one of the right-hand drawers.

Hurry!

Here.

Oh, thank you, but I don't need it anymore.

I'm better now. I'm really much better.

I'm sorry only that I
frightened you like that.

Forgive me.

Angus.

Yes, Albert?

Do you know what Digitillin is used for?

Well, it's a medicine for the circulation.

People with heart trouble take it.

Why do you ask?

No reason. I read it somewhere in a book.

Albert, take my advice.
Don't read too much.

Where's Lola?

She's in your room.

You want a cup of coffee?

No.

What's she doing in my room?

She didn't tell me.

If you ask me, Albert, I
don't think that girl's all there.

Angus, why do you dislike her so much?

Would you really like to know?

She's like a snake.

It would be wiser not to trust her.

Keep your personal views
to yourself if you don't mind.

Very well.

If that's what you want.

Is that you, Albert?

I'm just finishing up in the bathroom.

I'll change the towels, then I'll go.

Oh, there's no rush.

What's this? Still dressed?

Go on, get undressed. Don't be shy.

What's the matter? Got a cramp?

There's no reason to be shy
with me. We're friends, aren't we?

Good night.

Meow, meow.

Come on, come on Rupert

Come here, Rupert. Come on.

If you act, you do a little nicer to me.

Keep your hands to yourself.

Lola, Lola, wait for me.

Cut it out.

Lola, what's the matter with you?

I've already told you to leave me alone.

But why are you making such a fuss?

Is it because of that milk sop?

He's not a milk sop.

He's a very sensitive
boy and extremely shy.

Don't tell me you're
falling in love with him.

My private life has got
nothing to do with you.

You concentrate on your
work and I'll take care of mine.

Is that clear?

Okay.

But you'll soon learn the
difference between a man and a boy.

Are you trying to tell me
that you're the big man?

Don't make me laugh.

You'll soon find out.

Angus!

Angus, I want to talk to you
about something important.

What is it?

For your information, I want you to
know I'm not going back to college.

And what do you have in mind?

To go on a round-the-world trip?

No, I want to stay here with you.

With me?

When I say you, I mean you and Lola.

I wouldn't count on it.

Your mother told me to take you
back to college at the end of the holidays

and that's what I'm going
to do in six days' time.

Make no mistake about that.

Oh, I...

I've come to you because I've cut my hand.

Will you...

Won't you help me dress my
hand? I've tried, but I can't do it alone.

I've been waiting for you.

I'm afraid I hurt myself in the garden.

May I ask you a question, a personal one?

But of course, you can
ask me anything you like.

Are you a virgin?

What?

There's no need for you to
tell me, if you don't want to.

Just because there's no
reason for you to be ashamed.

I just prefer that you
tell me openly that

you're slightly afraid
of going with a woman.

I'm not afraid.

Well, in that case, undress me.

I'd really like to see what you can do.

You don't mind, do you?

Of course I don't.

Take off my stockings.

I'm certain that there isn't
a man in the world who

wasn't a little overcome
the first time it happened.

Is that all right?

Yes, now the other one.

It seems to me you're a little nervous.

If not worried.

Meow!

Well, then?

Did the cat get your tongue again?

No, no. I was just thinking.

About what?

Of you.

Of how beautiful you are.

It's almost a sin.

You're so...

You're so...

different.

Different to whom?

Different to...

to all the others.

I want to be with you forever.

From the moment I first saw you,

all I thought about is
what we're doing now.

I've wanted it too, so much.

Let's go away together.

You and I.

Let's go to Argentina, or to Tahiti.

You're... you're so... so beautiful.

Wonderful.

That was really wonderful.

Wasn't it, Lola?

Lola?

Hey!

Lola?

Lola?

What is it?

You're good.

She's dead.

Albert.

Lola's dead.

Hey, are you drunk?

But what did you say?

I've killed her.

What are you talking about?

Have you gone crazy?

Lola is dead.

You're raving mad.

You don't know what the hell you're saying.

She's dead.

I'm sorry.

Listen, get off to the kitchen
and have some coffee.

This isn't a very pleasant job, I know.

I don't understand how it happened.

Maybe she had a weak heart.

A weak heart, of course.

A few days ago she asked
me to bring her some Digitalin.

You know, sometimes too
much excitement can be fatal.

Want a drink?

No.

Drink something, it'll help you.

Angus, what's gonna happen now?
Will the police be coming around?

No. Not if we don't call them.

Just... what... what do you mean?

Just that your mother wouldn't
appreciate that sort of publicity.

The police are gonna ask
a lot of dreary questions.

And I suppose you know
what an autopsy means.

More or less.

Good.

Well, they slit open the corpse in
order to determine the cause of death.

But it was an accident.

Yes, I know.

But every accident has its reasons.

It's better not to say anything.

Very well.

We'll say that she went away.

No one will ever notice her disappearance.

Least of all her mother, shut up in
a metal home destroyed by alcohol.

But what do we do with her?

We can't keep her in the house.

We'll bury her out in the garden.

No. I don't think I could do that.

Albert! I said we will bury her.

No.

I can't go on, I can't make it.

All right, I'll carry on from here.

Go, go on inside.

Go on.

Let's go inside. We both need a good rest.

Angus.

Yes?

What do you think of me?

Would you unzip my skirt?

Haven't you ever seen
an almost naked woman?

I'm not about to seduce
you, unless you want me to.

I feel I've known you for ages.

Look at this.

But who could it have been?

I don't know.

Probably someone who saw us bury the
body last night and means to use blackmail.

What do we do?

We have no choice.

Five thousand pounds?

But I... I don't have that kind of money.

Yes, I know. Neither do I.

In fact, I've never seen five
thousand pounds altogether at once.

Angus.

What will the blackmailer do if
we don't give him the money?

Hmm. That's what I'd like to know.

Perhaps... we'll try again.

And then?

And they need to arrange
for the police to find the body.

But if they find Lola, they'll
come here and question us.

That's right.

Well, if they do come...

If they come here,

we'll simply say she left the
house and didn't come back.

Doesn't it seem a bit
strange to you that a girl

would wander around the
countryside stark naked?

I think I know where I can find some money.

Are you joking?

No. No, I'm not joking.

My mother always keeps a lot
of money upstairs in her safe.

I know she does.

And what am I supposed to do, Albert?

Crack your mother's safe?

No.

No, that won't be necessary.

I know the combination.

And I know where she keeps the key.

All we have to do is
go upstairs and get it.

Let's try not to get too excited.

There's nothing else here.

I've got a little saved up.

Maybe four or five hundred pounds.

But we're gonna need a great deal more.

Do you think he'll be happy with that?

Albert, if you want my opinion,
I'd be really surprised if he'll

be happy with the five thousand
pounds he asked for already.

Wait a minute. Maybe
there's something in this box.

But whatever you do, don't
go below the sum we need.

Yes, please. Thank you. Come on in

And what can I do for you

I'd like to borrow some money

borrow some money you say

You mean you need to take your girlfriend
to the cinema or is it more serious?

I'm in need of

3,000 pounds

Well done my boy

But that's going a bit too far

3,000 pounds is rather a lot

Well, you see I brought this

Let's have a look

Just how did you come by this
necklace it belongs to my mother sit down

I'll see what I can do

So does your mother know about this?

At the moment she's on the continent.

I'm alone at home and
I've run out of money.

Seems quite plausible.

Your mother, uh...

What is her name?

Stapleton. Ivy Stapleton.

We're well known hereabouts.

The name, I mean to say.

Ivy Stapleton.

But of course.

You must have some sort of castle
in the neighborhood, isn't that so?

At Stonebridge.

Three miles away from here.

Yes, I know.

And you must be...

Albert Stapleton.

Very well.

I'll tell you what I can do for you.

I'll give you two thousand pounds.

And you'll sign a declaration
of proof of ownership for me.

No.

I said three.

I won't accept a penny less.

Well, there's no doubt that you
know what you want, is there?

Very well.

I agree to your three thousand pounds.

Here.

A signature at the bottom.

There you are.

Three thousand pounds.

You can count it if you wish.

No, that isn't necessary.

Thank you.

For everything.

Goodbye.

Ahmed.

Show the gentleman out.

Good luck, young man.

As you just saw, it
wasn't all that difficult.

Now all we have to do is pray
that our blackmailer isn't too greedy.

It's not going to be easy to see anything
out in the garden with this weather.

We could use the dog to keep watch.

I don't think that would be a good idea.

Why not?

Use your head.

Think about it.

We want the blackmailer, whoever it
may be, to return the corpse to its place.

If he sees the dog, he might
take fright and run away.

It's better if you go to bed now.

You've been awake for much too long.

I'll sit up here with Rupert tonight.

I don't feel like sleeping.

Do as I tell you and don't worry.

Go to bed now.

Yeah, I think I will.

Rupert?

No, Rupert, you stay here.

Go on.

Come here, Rupert.

Go on. Go on.

Be a good dog.

Sleep well.

Angus? I'm here. Over here.

What's happened?

Look at that. She's come back, Albert.

Thank God she's come back.

Oh, Angus.

About time.

I mean, look here.

And here.

Perhaps you don't
understand, Seamus, that...

But there's something out here.

What is this?

What is this?

Why, bless my soul.

Using boxes as manure, is it now?

Give that box to me.

Is there anything else?

And what else should there be?

The Loch Ness Monster, perhaps?

Seamus, that's enough.

Shut up and get out!

You know what I think?

I'm sick to death with arguing with you.

And when Mrs. Stabledon
comes home, I'll tell her everything.

And she'll listen to me.

You needn't worry that she won't.

So you'd better... you'd better watch it.

What's this? How would I know what it is?

And where the hell am I gonna
find another 5,000 pounds?

I don't know, but that's your
problem, don't you think?

Oh, really?

It's our problem. You've
helped me all along.

So what about it?

I helped you because I felt sorry
for you, but now it's gone too far.

But Angus...

Everything has a limit.

But don't you see? At this
point, I can't go on anymore.

I'm tired. I'm worn out.

Who can that be?

I... No, I can't...

You answer it.

Oh, all right.

Stowbridge Manor Court.

Oh, Mrs. Sevilton, how are you?

Nice to hear from you.

No, everything's fine.

No, no, no problems.

Except one thing, the
housekeeper. I was forced to fire her.

No, but I caught her stealing.

Yes, sure, I arranged everything
just as you would have done.

No, she didn't make a fuss.

Do you want your son?

Hello? Yes, Mother.

Yes, I'm fine.

Yes, of course.

Don't worry about me.

See you soon.

Bye, Mother.

I love you, too.

Rupert!

Rupert!

Rupert!

And with your eyes wide open,
you got your pleasure out of it.

And don't tell me I didn't warn you.

Yes Angus, I'm begging you,
please don't leave me now.

No, no, I'm leaving you to
get out of this shit by yourself.

You're old enough to handle this.

I'm washing my hands of you.

I'm going to lock myself
in my room and wait.

Don't you even dare try to include
me in your problems, do you get me?

Hello, mother?

Hello?

Who's there?

Who is it? Say something!

Say something, damn it! Talk to me!

Who is it?

Bastard!

Bastard...

It's all right.

Don't be worried. I'm here now.

It's you.

But aren't you...

Dead?

No, I'm not. It was a trick.

A filthy trick.

But I don't understand.

Angus prepared a plan.

Angus prepared a plan?

Yes, right from the start.

He suggested my employment to your mother.

He knew that you'd be on your own.

And he arranged for me to
arrive at the crucial moment.

Not a minute too early.

The idea came to him from
my continual heart attacks,

which I've suffered
from since I was a child.

And so, using that, he
thought up the blackmail idea.

So it was you.

It was you who collected the money from...

From...

From my tomb, as it were.

Yes, that's right.

But Angus made the decisions.

And you killed Rupert, too.

No.

No, I couldn't kill a fly, believe me.

That was Angus's doing.

Another one of his filthy ideas.

I really did try to stop him, but...

It was impossible.

He took all the money away from me.

He had no intention of sharing it with me.

As had been agreed,

it was as though he'd gone mad.

I tried to frighten him by saying
that I would tell you the truth.

But he threatened me.

He even beat me up, look.

And then he told me that if I said
anything to you, he'd kill the two of us.

Why aren't you telling me all this?

No.

Because... because
I'm not really heartless.

And... then because I'm... mad about you.

Does he know you're here?

Yes, he knows where we are.

And it won't be long before
he makes an appearance.

And I'm scared of him. Scared to death.

We have to do something.

What do you plan on doing?

We'll run away together.

But how?

We'll take the car.

You've just got to trust me.

Okay?

Alright.

He must have cut the line.

It belonged to my
father, but it's not loaded.

BOOM

Hold it.

Forget it, Albert.

That's no pistol you have there.

It's a paperweight.

Hold it.

I said hold it, Angus, or I'll shoot you.

I swear I will.

No, no, don't come any closer.

You're wrong, because
I'm going to kill both of you.

It's finished. It's all over.

Come on.

Now we'll load him into the car's trunk.

Then we'll put a weight on
him and throw him in the lake.

All right, let's get on with it.

Yeah, that's better.

Let's go.

Lola Lola wake up. What is it? I
heard a sound it must be downstairs

But that's impossible,
but I'm sure of it I'm

positive I tell you I heard
someone down there

Who could it be I'm gonna take a look

You stay there

I'll be right back now. Don't move. Okay?

Albert, I'm frightened.

Albert?

Albert?

Don't leave me all alone.

Albert?

Albert?

Albert!

Albert!

Oh, no!

Oh, no!

No!

No!

No!

Operator.

Operator, put me through to the police.

Hello, is this the police?

My name's Albert Stapleton.

I'm at Stowbridge Manor Court.

I wish to report two mysterious
deaths that just happened.

The chauffeur and the housekeeper.

They seem to have killed each other.

All right.

I'll wait for your arrival.
