History has proved us right,

- and you know it.
- It's never proved anyone right.

History's a deaf man

answering questions
no-one's asked.

Parole, parole, parole.

History never lies, Lola.

And you trust someone
who can't help you.

Who do you mean?

Remember: God wishes all ills to
cease but He can't do it Himself,

which means He's weak.
Or else He can do it,

but won't, which
means He's evil.

Or He won't or can't,
so He's both weak and evil.

And therefore is not God.

Unde malum? I know Epicurus, his
ideas are interesting but no good to

A trilemma always leads

to intellectual paralysis.
He can't be weak or strong,

or good or bad.
He can't be anything.

I don't understand you.

- I assume you know your bible?
- Lola, I'm a professional.

Right then.
Exodus 3.14?

"And God said unto Moses,

I AM THAT I AM. Thus shalt thou
say unto the children of Israel.

I AM hath sent thee unto you."

No, no, no, it was...

"EHYE ASHER EHYE."
"I WILL BE WHAT I WILL BE."

He spoke in the future
not the present.

God is to come.
That's my only hope.

Come on, that might get
your intellectual friends

into bed, but it's
much simpler than that.

You're all like
the olive in the dry Martini.

- Necessary but not unessential?
- Exactly.

- Where are you going?
- We've an appointment.

- Go through.
- I'm afraid you've lost the battle.

Perhaps.

In any case, Lola,
why go on fighting?

- I do have my principles.
- I was afraid of that.

NO NEWS FROM GOD

HEAVEN, TWO MONTHS EARLIER

DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS, HEAVEN

Things aren't

going very well,
to be honest.

In recent years

few have joined our ranks
on their own merit.

Worst of all, I don't think
the tendency will change.

At this rate,
we won't hold out very long.

The rebels will end up winning.

Did you speak to Him?

No, I wasn't able to.

You've been here long enough
to know that no one ever has.

Sorry, I'm a bit nervous.

I've tried, I assure you,
but nobody knows where He is.

It seems He's tired,

depressed,
ready to give up on everything.

But that's only rumours.

So we'll have to
work it out ourselves.

Any ideas?

I have good news.
We've received a request.

- From whom?
- A mother.

That's good.

You're a hit, Lola!
They're all crazy about you!

Quiet.

They're not clapping. Listen:

- They've stopped clapping.
- Lola,

they clapped for 10 minutes.

- What more do you want?
- It wasn't 10 minutes.

Good night, Lola.

Sorry to interrupt, my dear.

I didn't know you were here.
I'd have sent you...

No, I got here at the end.

But the last song was fantastic.

- So romantic.
- You like it?

I'd never sung it before.
It's new.

Don't you think
they stopped clapping too soon?

No, they were delighted.
They loved you.

I don't know...

The first day of a tour
is always the most difficult.

I'm afraid you'll have to cancel
your next engagements.

I don't understand.

A mother wants us
to save her son's soul.

CHECKPOINT CHARLIE
GATE TO HELL, SOUTH ZONE

JACK DAVENPORT
CHIEF EXECUTIVE, HELL

Hi, Manny.

Did you win?

Since you left,
I haven't won anything.

Manny, I've come back
but if you lay a finger on me...

Manny...!

Manny, Manny, Manny!

I'm glad you're back, Lola.

TO MY SON, MANNY

CIRCLE 22, HELL

Having done our duty
to our grandparents,

it's back to
the 21st century.

Moron.

Aren't you hungry?

I went to the doctor's.

He said I can never box again.

Wait, I'll get it.

"Dear nephew,

I'm writing to ask a favour,
I know it's been too long...

Your cousin Carmen..."

Don't say you
don't remember me!

I'm your cousin Carmen.

You've changed a lot.

How about a kiss?

Sure.

Let me give you a hand.
Come on in.

My cousin Carmen. She'll
be here for a few days.

Easy... I didn't mean
to frighten you.

Incredible how you've changed.

Who'd have thought
it was the same person

as in this photo?

It isn't the same person.

That was fifteen years ago.

Manny used to show me how
to box, didn't you, cousin?

Manny!

Elbows tucked in at the sides.
Did you forget what I taught you?

Stop fooling around!

The doctor told me
not to box again.

There's something
wrong with my head.

Christ, Manny, I'm so sorry!

I really wanted
to see you box again.

Fucking hell!

Where shall I put it?

- In the album.
- Where is it?

On the sideboard.

Put it in the green one.

There's room at the front.

You won't last five minutes.

Elbows tucked in
to the sides, don't forget.

"If at any time you hear
one of our managers

say that I am absent
due to illness or fatigue,

use this key and
follow my instructions."

Signed, Jack Davenport.

How's my mother?

The last time I saw her,
she was fine.

She has trouble

getting about, but she's
as chirpy as ever.

I haven't seen
her in 7 years.

I know...

Does she mention me?

No, actually
she doesn't mention you.

After you left,
she never did again.

Never?

Never.

What's the matter?

Lola,

if you'd done something bad
to somebody you really loved,

how would you get
them to forgive you?

- By talking to them.
- I can't. They don't live here.

You could write a letter.

I've never written one.

Then do something to make
them feel proud of you.

Something to show
you've changed.

Then they'd forgive you.

How would they find out?

Sooner or later they'd
find out, don't you worry.

- Are you sure?
- I'm sure.

And what could I do?

1,400.

Look at her.

Always the same, because of her
we'll be out 10 minutes late.

Good evening.

This is our new
floor supervisor, Carmen Ramos.

She'll be in charge
of cashing out.

Christ, she looks like a model!

Just a minute, I assume

this'll count as overtime?

It had better.

I wish it could, Antonia.

But the wage agreement doesn't
count inspections as overtime.

The sooner we start, the sooner
we'll finish. So let's go.

She's too attractive,
Eduardo, too attractive.

I know, but
her references were excellent.

And she's the only one who'd
take half the normal salary.

Don't you think
her skirt's too short?

Perhaps.

But neither you nor I are her
husband. We're just her bosses.

It's my first day and
I won't bore you with speeches.

I know you're tired
and want to go home.

But before you go,

I'd like you to share
a thought with me.

If our colleague Lola can
ring up almost twice as much

as anyone else,

then something's wrong.

So we've no alternative but
to try and find out what it is.

Well, girls,
I won't keep you.

Goodnight and see
you all tomorrow.

Well done, Lola.

Don't fall behind, Lola.

Fucking hell...

Sorry, ma'am.

I saw it in a newspaper
and thought you might like it.

Very nice.

Go on, help Lola
lay the table.

I don't like to see women doing nothing.
Into the kitchen with you.

I'll get it.

What's this?

Tijuana,

- I KO'ed him in the fifth.
- Manny...

That's all over now, okay?

You have to think
of the future.

Sure, but the future's
not what it was any more.

These people want
to talk to you.

Sorry to bother you
but it's urgent.

If you've come
to offer him a match...

It's nothing
to do with boxing.

Would you like a drink?

Thanks, but we had
coffee downstairs.

I can't pay you now. You'll
have to wait till tomorrow.

I'll call the police.

Don't bother.

Does it turn you on?

What's the matter? Easy...

- Manny!
- Let's go.

Manny!

Manny, Manny, Manny!

Manny!

- You bitch!
- I can go on...

I can fight...

Your husband owes me
over 5 million pesetas,

without the interest.

I didn't know...
I haven't got that much money.

Mortgage your house.

It's rented.

Then ask for a loan
on your salary.

All right, I'll do that.
I'll ask for a loan...

I'll give you 15 days.

Banks are so slow.
And I'm only doing this for you.

I've given up on Manny.
He's disappointed me.

He might have done well
as a boxer if he hadn't...

Daddy, daddy, look!

It's their
first communion next month.

Go and change. You might
spoil those dresses.

My lovely girls!

Fifteen days. Okay?

Everything okay?

Yes, it's all sorted out.

I'll ask the bank for
a loan to pay off your debt.

See how those kids
put their heart into it?

Maybe some will
get to the top.

How come you owe that money?

They gave me some
stolen jewellery to sell off...

- And?
- Well, I sold it,

but went and spent the money.

- What did you spend 5 million on?
- Things... you know.

- What things?
- If you hadn't left, I wouldn't have.

You've got to change,
you know. And a lot.

- Let's go.
- No, wait.

It's nice here.

I've got you a job at
the supermarket as a security guard.

- Will I have to wear a uniform?
- Of course.

Fuck...

I want you to tell your cousin
to find somewhere else to stay.

No, I can't do that. She's
my cousin and I'm her godfather too.

Is she really your cousin?

Who else do you
think she is?

Oh, sorry, I didn't
see you come in.

Lola wanted me to take the bag
down, but carry on if you want...

No, I was just
playing around.

It's not the end
of the world.

You knew you'd
have to give it up.

Start thinking
of you and Lola.

She's so happy about it.

It's like a liberation for her.

Manny...

It's okay,
for Christ's sake.

But it's a pity you couldn't
try for the championship.

But that's life...

Yeah, that's life...

I'm the greatest,
I'm the greatest, I'm the champ.

I'm the champ, I'm the greatest.

I'm the champ, I'm the champ.

Leave him alone.

He's just a poor wretch.

Not that wretched.

Some have been
damned for a lot less.

But he wants to change.

I doubt it.

He won't have time anyway.

If those cops don't kill him,
boxing will.

I don't know
why you bother.

I pity you.

You remind me
of my father.

That's nice. He must
have been a nice person.

Very, but it didn't
do him any good.

And talking of nice people,
can I give you some advice?

Of course.

For a woman, being nice

isn't very useful.

Between you and me,
it just isn't sexy.

Sure, but it's very chic.
It's so rare nowadays.

Lola!

Keep trying,
you might convince me.

I always liked boxers.

No, in my in-laws' village...

Why did you agree?

My mother-in-law insisted.

I'd have said no to mine,
I know how to handle her.

Is something the matter?

- We're not used to eating with bosses.
- Relax. Don't go.

I'm just another
worker like you girls.

- Anyone seen Lola?
- She's not in yet.

She's on the afternoon shift.

Oh yes, she told me so at home.

She's my cousin, you see.

Actually, my cousin's husband.

But I'm staying with them.

She didn't tell us.

She keeps to herself.

She didn't tell me she'd been
at university for a year either.

She's very clever...

If she's so clever
what's she doing here?

She doesn't want
her husband to feel small.

That's pretty stupid, isn't it?

She always made me suspicious.

It's romantic. Carmen...
I can call you Carmen, right?

Sure.

I'm pregnant. Will they fire me?

They can try

over my dead body.
I'm a woman too, you know.

Hello...

Lola, before I forget...

I spoke to the manager
and he says Manny

can start right away.

Her husband's going
to be a security guard.

What's on the agenda today?

First, the check-out
girl who's pregnant.

Make sure the special offers
are in a prominent position.

When her attendance
gets bad, fire her.

But for another reason.
We don't fire pregnant women.

I want a constant
watch kept here,

to stop them
eating the yogurts.

They don't even finish them.

Anything else?

The check-out girls want
you to see their union rep.

- What do they want?
- A pay rise.

- That's not possible. Next item.
- Excuse me, but

they hinted at action if
their claims weren't considered.

There are plenty
of other people out there.

No mass dismissals.

The shareholders are good Christians
and don't like adverse publicity.

What if we fire their rep?

It'd frighten the rest.

But remember what
happened in Barcelona

when we fired
the packers' rep.

They went on strike
and we lost a month's sales.

No, no, women
always stick together...

Well then,

we can only negotiate.

Negotiate?
Negotiate what?

There's nothing to negotiate.
We have to find a solution.

Sir, I think
I have a solution.

Have you? What is it?

"Egonomics." The economic
analysis of emotions...

I'm writing to my mother.
The other idea was too complicated.

Come on, hurry up.

Turn round.

That knot looks fine.
Hold on.

- Lola?
- What?

Where did we meet?

In Bilbao,

after a fight.

And when did
we get married?

Five years ago.

That's not right.

Manny, we got married
on 9th May 1997.

- So 97, 98, 99...
- If you say so.

The thing is, it feels like
we've only been married a week.

Manny, no. Stop it. Do you want
to be late on your first day?

Fucking hell!

Hey, Manny.

This is worse
than boxing, right?

Forget the other night.

Come on, I was
only obeying orders.

That girl...
who is she?

- My cousin.
- Christ!

She's a real cutie.
Mind if I shag her?

Only joking.

She doesn't like guys.

So keep an eye
on your wife.

Ignore her,
she studied psychology once.

Take care.

Remind your wife
about the money.

And watch her.
My partner might be right.

Mind if stay up
and watch TV?

They're showing a good film.

I was murdered the day before
the première so I didn't see it.

Do what you want but
next time knock first.

Goodwill.

That's all we need to show
to solve the problem.

I've read their letter
and a pay rise is only an excuse.

What they really
want is attention.

We need them to feel
part of our project.

Sometimes we forget that
a little affection,

human warmth, is worth
more than any pay rise.

So I've reached a decision.

Fire the rep and
get round them.

Tell them we need them.

That they're as
important as you or me.

Goodwill?

A great idea.

It may be true

that goodwill moves
mountains, but...

But what?

You know the story
of the Good Samaritan?

It's one of my favourites.

Then you'd agree with Mrs. Thatcher
that no-one would remember him today

if all he'd had
was goodwill.

Because he also had money.

What do you mean?

The same as
the Good Samaritan.

I want to combine
money and goodwill.

Do you mean give
them their pay rise?

Not all of them.
Actually just one...

The union rep.

And I think we should
make her supervisor.

No, no. I'll never do that.

She's a revolutionary.
She should be fired not rewarded.

Firing her
would be a mistake.

And all revolutionaries

are conservatives at heart.

Once established
they run out of steam.

Well, you may be right...

But who shall I fire?

We have to fire someone
to serve as an example.

No problem.
Fire this one.

But this is

our best employee.

Exactly.

The kid at the top of the class
is never popular. Fire her.

No-one will stand up for her.

It won't cause any problems.

All right. I'll think
about what you've said,

and let you
know my decision.

Good.

This dish will
eat up all of us.

Why?

She'll cause a lot of trouble.
She's full of venom.

Are you sure?

Yes, absolutely.

That's a pity.

But her idea's
brilliant, isn't it?

Yes,

but here all the good ideas
should appear to come from you.

I can't afford it.
I can't make ends meet.

Can someone pass me
a band, please?

They'll never fire that bitch.

What's the matter?

They're going to fire people...

Why?

The letter we signed.

You're all a pain...

Talking politics
all the time!

They can't fire
people for that.

And if it's only rumours...

Don't you
believe it then?

They won't fire you,

- so why should you care?
- I signed it too.

Stop pretending, Lola.

We all know

you're the personnel officer's
cousin and she lives with you.

Our husbands are out
of work too, you know.

Antonia Jiménez,
to personnel, please.

So we shouldn't
listen to rumours, eh?

"Mother, I'm living in Madrid.

I'm married now.

My wife's called Lola

and she's very clever.

She's been to college.

Cousin Carmen is
staying with us.

I fought in the Spanish
championship in 1999.

Now I work in a supermarket.

Your son, Manny."
What do you think?

Fine, but you
didn't say sorry.

You're right.

That's it.

Manny, why's your mother
angry with you?

- Something I did...
- Tell me about it.

What for? It's not important.
It happened a long time ago.

That doesn't matter. Tell me...

I took some money she'd saved
for my brother's education.

I wanted to be a boxer
but she wanted me to work...

I needed the money to get on...

Go and post it then.

Hi, Lola. Is Carmen here?
We're supposed to go...

dancing.

Yes, in her room.

Wow! You look great!

Do I look all right?

Yes. If that's what you like.

Don't expect me for dinner.
I'll be back late.

- We got some.
- Some what?

Pills, what else?

I'm sorry, I needed to see you here.
It's suffocating down there.

Don't worry.
What's so urgent?

I want you to replace me.

Why? You're doing fine.

No, I'm not doing fine at all.

I'm not interested any more. And...

It's her, isn't it?

I'm feeling the strangest things.
I'm completely disoriented.

You must replace me.

Send another agent
or we'll lose Manny.

I can't.

There are no other agents.
I can't replace you.

The old ones don't know
what to do next.

And the new ones?

The new ones are of no use.

Most of them are here
due to objective

conditions,
not by their own merit.

They don't fit in. They just watch TV
and eat hamburgers all day.

It's a disaster.

Are things that bad?

Worse than you think.
Look.

My fans...

That's how it is.

We can't afford to keep this going.

The truth is, we're bankrupt.

Without a drastic change,
we won't last another year.

You must find

a way to bring in Manny.

But Manny is just one soul.
I don't see how...

I assume you know the story of
Cleopatra's nose?

Of course.

If it had been an inch longer,
the world would be a different place.

If Manny's soul leans our way,

however insignificant it may seem,
perhaps...

we'll be saved. Don't ask how.
I can't tell you right now.

Trust me.

If you want Manny,
then change the rules.

If not, they'll get him.

Excuse the interruption.

We would be delighted
if you sang something.

We miss you so.

Please.

Well, what can I say?

Artistes!

The fuck you looking at?

Hey, now!

"Mother, mother...

Now I work in a supermarket...

Your son, Manny..."

"I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry."

Shit!

Shit!

Unbelievable.

Did you post the letter?

Let's go to bed.

Manny, did you post
the letter or not?

- Why not?
- Things on my mind, you know...

Coming to bed or not?

No. Just tell me why
you didn't post it.

I suddenly remembered how my mother
always loved my brother more than me.

All right?

Come, or I'll hit the punching bag.

Sorry, sir.
I didn't hear you...

I'm sorry if
I frightened you.

I had to be sure it was you.
We have to be careful!

Of course.
What's the matter?

Problems, problems...

Now this is
strictly confidential, ok?

Between you and me.

There's a plot hatching
in hell to replace me.

Who are the traitors?

Some of the Council members.

They say I'm old-fashioned.

They want a new management model,

and to change the
rules to suit them.

That'd be terrible!

I know. That's why
I need your help.

I'll do whatever you say.
I've always hated traitors.

I know. That's why I chose you,
fuck it!

Look, I need to speak to them.

Tell your agent I need
to speak to... Marina D'Angelo.

She'll understand.

And about the boxer...

forget his soul for the moment,

and concentrate on his body,
just his body.

Do whatever you need to,

only make sure he doesn't
have any accidents. Okay?

- Yes, but...
- If he died, it'd be catastrophic.

- Understand?
- Yes, sir. Perfectly.

If all goes well,
I'll promote you to Circle 10.

Sir...

I know. But look after the boxer.
It's very, very important.

- Can I ask you a question, sir?
- Yes.

Why is the boxer's soul so important?
He's just a normal sinner.

I know, but sometimes
apparently unimportant things

can bring about drastic changes.
Did you read Pascal at school?

Yes, yes...

And his speculation on
Cleopatra's nose and all that?

- Yes...
- You did? Well...

- Goodbye, sir.
- See you.

Goodbye, sir...

Excuse me. I'd like to talk to you.

And I'd like
to talk to you.

I was wrong about who to fire.

Maybe so,

but it's too late now.

NOTICE OF DISMISSAL

Lola, I have to talk to you.

Well? Have you got
it off your chest?

Can we talk now?

Let's try and act
like professionals.

- I was only obeying orders.
- That's what they all say.

You really are like my dad.

Don't be so prudish.

A rebellion's broken out in Hell.

To stop it, we need
to save Manny's soul.

My boss wants to talk to one of
your people... Marina D'Angelo.

And why aren't you
on the rebels' side?

I always refused
to be a fool,

"dancing on the string held by all
those bigshots." I saw the film.

Of course not.

How do I know
you aren't using me?

- You've my word.
- That's not enough.

Then you'll have to risk it.

We need your help
and you need ours.

But Jack, it's you who's
got a revolt on his hands.

But if they win, you disappear
and that'd be a disaster.

Come on now, Jack.

I don't understand why our survival
should interest you so much.

A question of balance.
Once the hawks kill the doves,

they'll start killing
each other for lack of food.

But there's something else,
isn't there, Jack?

Yes, they want to change the rules.

I don't understand.

Apart from the fact

that they want to get rid
of me, they have a plan...

- So far, Hell's been a fair place.
- Yes, sir.

When the judges send us a new intern,
we don't care if he was

a pope, a king, cleaner or a banker...
They all do their time.

But if the powerful ones win,
everything will change.

A rebellion of the rich
is the most dangerous of all.

But how will the interns
tolerate such injustice?

Those bastards

have been preparing for years.

They've created a world
of moral puppets conditioned by TV,

- a kind of evil Disneyland where men...
- And women, Jack.

Sure, sure... where
men and women, of course,

where men and women
feel no guilt for their actions.

No responsibility
for what they do.

And I will not tolerate it!

Centuries ago I rebelled against
another tyrant and I don't regret it.

And, young lady,

I'm prepared to lose

it all so that you

and others like you
can fight me,

and choose between what I
represent and you defend.

The choice must exist.

Because I cannot exist
without you nor you without me.

The choice must exist,
even when it's...

A move made in the dark?

A move made in the dark...
Do you remember

that night...?

Sit down and don't
drink any more.

Jack,

what do you need?

I need the boxer's soul,

through his own choice,
should go to you.

I could present it as
a threat to our survival.

That'd be dangerous,

and bending the rules.

I know, Marina,
but for God's sake,

this is an unprecedented crisis.

Anyway, you owe me a favour.
Remember '39.

What happened in '39, sir?

Yes,

what happened in '39?

Sorry to intrude.

We can come in
for a moment, can't we?

We must seem a pain...

You are.

It's about the bank...

We hadn't forgotten,
now get out.

Of course, of course.
Is this good?

They'll tell us tomorrow.

It's dry.

Then we'll talk tomorrow.

If I'd had my way,
we wouldn't have disturbed you,

but you know how women are.

Mine wants a new kitchen,

and without the money

she won't let me
into the house.

- You understand?
- Of course.

But tell your wife
she'll have her new kitchen.

And that she's married
to a son of a bitch.

Though she probably knows...

Remember what the boss said.

Not to touch the two girls.

- What do you do?
- I'm a businessman. What about you?

Businessman?

These spicks think
they can do anything.

Some I.D.

He's Swiss.

I always hated businessmen,
especially Swiss ones.

And are you
a businesswoman?

Not exactly.

What are you looking at?
Fancy me?

I don't want to forget your face,
in case we meet up again.

Really? And what'll you do
when we meet up again?

Shag me?

See this?

I'm gonna stick
it up your arse.

I'm sure you'd like it.

Women...

- I knew it was you.
- Yes.

And that you were in trouble.

It's a great novel.

It made me cry.

Me too.

Jack, we're too old to...

It can't be.

Whatever you say.

But don't forget,

I'll be yours for ever and ever,

- till Hell...
- Till Hell freezes over.

I won't forget, Jack.

I won't.

Manny! What are you doing?

Shouldn't you be at work?

I quit, Lola.
I'm going back to boxing.

You can't do that.
You heard what the doctors said.

They've never been in the ring.

And I don't like
wearing a uniform.

But Manny...

Shut up, you!

I've signed up for a fight.

I start training tomorrow at 7.
And that's that. Got it?

Talk to him...

Listen, Manny.
You can't box again.

Of course I can.

If you do, I'm leaving.

Know what they call
the ring where I come from?

"The brave man's stand."

Up there, you're somebody.

Even when your opponent
knocks you down.

But when you knock him down...

when you knock him down,
you feel like a god.

You wouldn't understand...

Of course I do...

But you could be killed.

Sure.

So what?

Come on, Manny, come on.

Tuck those elbows in, Manny.

Keep your fists up.

Come on, come on.
That's it, champ.

Left... two... left...

Seven...

Come on.

Move your feet
at the same time, Manny.

Give me five.

Don't be such a softie.

Now you get up here.

- It's okay, I'm not tired.
- No. Get up here.

Be careful.

I won't hit
him in the head.

Let's see who's the softie.

Let's see.

Come on, Carmen.

Carmen!

Manny, Manny!

What have you done?

Box.

You shouldn't
have insulted him.

I didn't think I had, fuck.

Is it true that in Heaven

- you're a famous singer?
- Yes.

Got a lot of fans?

I can't complain...

I thought we should talk.

Go ahead.

I'm worried

that it's going to be
difficult for you to deliver.

Don't worry, we'll deliver.

But I do worry.
I worry a lot.

I know you've been fired.

- So how will you be able to pay?
- I'll pay.

- What?
- I said I'll pay.

I hope so or your husband
will have a bad time...

Understand?

Perfectly.
You've explained things very well.

Then there's nothing else
to talk about. See you next week.

Very good, Lola.

You've got
a big pair of balls.

I've had a lot of experience.

I've seen worse,
he's just a beginner.

I know human nature.
I was a politician once.

So how did you
get to Heaven?

Those were other times.

Fuck it!

If they find out
I've double-crossed them...

It's probably
just a routine check.

Everything'll be all right.

How did it go?

They gave me more time.

But they're beginning to suspect.

Go to bed.
It's the fight tomorrow.

- Let's go now.
- I'll go when I want.

Come now or
I'll break your neck!

Just you touch me...

What are you looking at?

Are you stupid or what?

You're a bully and a coward!

I'm sick of people hitting me!
Shit!

He's been
acting strangely lately.

He's just jealous.

Come on, Manny!

One... two... three...

What's the matter?

I came to help him and
I've only made things worse.

You're an angel not a nun.

And you're doing
your work well.

You even got him
to say sorry to his mother.

He didn't post the letter.

Fucking hell!

At the last minute, he remembered
his mother loved his brother more...

- Are you the boxer's wife?
- Yes.

He's come round,
but there are problems.

What problems?

I'll be frank.

He's living on borrowed time.

He's got a brain injury.

It could haemorrhage at any time.

You've been playing with fire.

Letting him fight
was tantamount to murder.

I'm filing a report.

- Can I go in and see him?
- Not now.

He needs to rest.

- Carmen!
- What!

I know how to get the money!

Lola, with your methods,
I don't think we'll get anywhere.

Just listen...

Christ!

But I need permission first.

So what happened?

If all goes well,
you'll never sing again.

I was going out of style anyway.

You won't even be able to use
the escape clause.

What if it goes wrong?

If it goes wrong, you know what
will happen. You know the rules.

Looks like it might rain.

I advise you not to do that.

Come on, Marina.
We both know I have no choice.

Don't you like the soup?

It's probably too salty.

Where are you going?

A job interview.

"A job interview."

Lola, come here. Sit down.

Manny, I'm in a hurry.

I said sit down.

Not there. Here.

- Manny, not now...
- Here!

I've done some bad things,

but I don't want to hurt you.

What do you mean?

If there's another man,

I'll break your neck.

But if there's another woman...

I'll kill the two of you.

You're impossible.

Eat your hake.

It's not so difficult, see?

Now you.

Not like that.

What am I doing wrong?

Look, this is a gun.

It scares most people shitless.

But a small number of people

only get scared if they
think you'll fire.

How do they know?

Your eyes.

They know by
the look in your eyes.

Watch.

Right, now you.

No, that's no good.
No, not like that.

Look, Lola.

I don't know what'll
happen to you if we fail,

but I know what'll happen to me.

I won't even be able

to work as a waitress again.

They'll fuck me up,

make me a housewife with some
bastard who treats me like shit,

for the next hundred years.

So pick up that gun,

and think of somebody
you'd like to shoot.

Go on!

I've never wanted
to shoot anybody.

Sure.

I don't believe it.

Come on, look into
your dark side.

Down, everybody! Come on!
On your knees! You!

The money in the bag!

You, hands behind your head!

Think of your families.
The money's not yours.

Get down!

Down, on your knees!

Come on, on your knees!

On your hands and knees!
On your hands and knees! Down!

The tape, Lola!

Hurry up!

Hands behind your back!

Hello! How's things?

Okay.

How about you?

Well...

you know what they say...

"It never rains but it pours."

Things'll pick up, you'll see.

I doubt it.

Your attention please!

For security reasons all entrances and
exits to this centre have been cleared.

Would all customers
please lie on the floor,

and stay there until
further instructions are given.

Have you robbed the place?

Christ, what a nerve!

Carmen, I took the bullets out.

So nobody'd get hurt.

Drop the gun.

Drop it.

Easy now or I'll shoot.

Easy.

I've got one of them!

Come on, come on. Easy.

Don't move.

Don't move.

Come on.

I've got one of them!

If you move, I'll kill you.

Keep still.

Lola, what happened?

Lola, can you hear me?

Lola!

It's nothing.
It's okay.

Slide the gun over, Lola.

I can hardly move.

I've been shot.

I'm bleeding.

But you can't bleed.

You're an angel.

Christ... They're angels!

Not any more. I've been
a mortal for the last hour.

You screwed up, Lola.

Slide the gun over.
Come on!

I wanted to help Manny.
There was no other way.

Fighting evil with evil
has serious consequences.

Our rules are very strict.

- Good luck.
- Thanks.

What a load of crap!

Your lot will
never get anywhere.

Now go.
Try and escape.

Your rules are
different from ours.

I already told you,
I keep my word.

Go on, pick it up.

Money's only made of paper but
it stirs the same emotions as poetry.

A pity it always belongs
to somebody else, isn't it?

But things could be worse.

You know what they say...

"Having money's
like being blonde.

It's more fun."

But it isn't essential.

Drop the gun.

No, you drop yours. Or I'll
kill your friend and then you.

I don't give a shit.

Drop it or I'll kill you.

You won't shoot
and you know it.

Maybe I will,
maybe I won't.

It's up to you.

- Carmen, you're bleeding!
- Let's go.

Come on.

Hell's a strange place, Lola.
I want to tell you

something in case
we don't get out of this.

The ones who pass sentence
have a warped sense of humour.

They turn the rich into poor
and the famous into nobodys.

If you're a gangster like me,

they turn you into a woman.

They know
how much it annoys us.

I meant to tell
you before, but...

that's how it is.

Does it bother you?

I could be your mother...

I'll show you a picture of my mother!
What do you want?

Put it away, son.

Don't get involved.

Now I've told you,

what do you say?

It's weird.

This is where the two
women assailants came out.

This is the supermarket.
They came out with a bag of money

with an undisclosed amount
of cash inside.

There was a shoot-out.
This is the police chief.

Tell our viewers...
What happened exactly?

Where have you two been?

Getting you out of a mess.

Shut up, you whore!

I've just been informed
that both assailants were killed

by police forces.

- Now if you'll excuse me...
- Do you know who they were?

You sold us out, you bastard!

Shut up, you fucking whore!

Okay champ, get the gun.

Lola, they're going to kill us.

Give me the gun.

You didn't say you were
going to kill them.

- Think, Manny.
- I'm not very good at that.

Carmen, their guns.
Get them, go on.

Now go, both of you.

Manny, you're throwing it all away, and
all for a woman who doesn't love you!

You never do what I say,
do you, Lola? Leave!

If they do,
we'll kill you.

Yeah, that's what I thought,
but I'm a boxer not a killer.

Now go!

Let's go.
He's made his decision.

That's the rule.

- Bye, Manny.
- Bye, Lola.

Why don't we
settle this like men?

Come on then.
I'm the greatest.

I'm the champion.

Mother... mother...

LAW COURTS HEAVEN / HELL

- Any news?
- No.

They're taking so long.

- I'm worried.
- Me too.

I think Nancy suspects.

What are his chances?

About 50%.

Your lawyers

have done a good job.

And the judge is a woman.

Not only did he deceive his mother,

but he hit a lot of women as well.

The judge won't like that very much.

And then there's the man he killed.

It was a traffic fight.
It wasn't premeditated.

Perhaps.

But your lawyers took him apart.

Knowing you,

you must have an ace up your sleeve.

You said it.

We've asked Judge Monroe to apply
the Thermopilas clause.

The Thermopilas clause?

Bravo.

The ultimate sacrifice.
How beautiful!

But if I remember well,

wasn't it Judge Monroe
who last applied it

in 1959?

Exactly.
I can see you've done

your homework too.

WHY ARE WE GATHERED IN THE FORUM?
TODAY THE BARBARIANS COME.

Manny's saved.

- He's with your people now.
- Good.

I hope he'll be happy there.

We're saved too.

We're angels again.

Right...

We have to return the money.

Do we fuck!
The money's ours.

We'll go and spend it,
get drunk and go whoring.

Sure, you keep it.

Christ! Were you
really a politician?

Really.

I don't believe it!

Something to remember me by...

Be seeing you.

Yes, see you.

Would you come
with us, please, Miss?

Why? What's wrong?

A matter of
a stolen bracelet.

- You admit to robbing the supermarket?
- Of course.

Now just tell us
who your accomplice is.

- That's not possible.
- Why?

Because I won't tell you.

That's up to you, but one way
or another you'll tell me.

Look, just relax.

Go home, help
your wife bath the kids...

I'm sure she'll appreciate it.

I suppose you know
the supermarket was a front

for distributing counterfeit notes?
Your friend won't last long.

What about it?

You can always count on villains.
They never let you down.

They don't change.

Can you wait over there?
Thank you.

Ticket to Geneva, please.

Geneva?

First class.

First class...

Right.

Cash or credit card?

Cash, honey.

I'm afraid it'll
take five minutes.

The computer's playing up today.

I'm in no hurry.

Come on, Carmen,
it's not that bad.

They only gave
us three years.

We'll be out
before you notice.

No, I'm out on Monday.

My briefs made
a deal with the judge.

We have influence, as you know.

I'm glad.

I don't know when
we'll meet again.

- Trust in fate.
- No...

Fate's unpredictable.

I'll ask Marina to let me come
and see you. She owes me a few.

When I go back,
I'll be in Circle 10.

So what?

I'll be a man...

And if you don't like me?

I'll have to risk it.

No alternative.
