All language subtitles for Discreet (2008)-ENG

Hello.

Hello.

Yeah. Who's this?

Hi, Peter. What
can I do for you?

Eight thousand an hour,
and I only take cash.

Well, I can come
to your place.

Or you can come
to my apartment.

It's very private.
Easy to find.

And there's a queue parking.

Great! Why don't
we set up a time.

What time do
you finish work?

Sure, is that 8:00 p.m.?

Oh, don't feel sorry, sweety.
Tomorrow is better for me anyway.

Have you got a pen?

Good. I'm at 32 Feldman Drive,
Sandton.

Then see you late
tomorrow, sweetie.

Hello.

Of course baby,
I'm five foot seven,

with thick blonde hair.

Slim, athletic build,
34C breasts.

And at the moment
I'm wearing nothing

but my favorite pink thong
with matching nice bra.

Pervert.

So we've got our first reports
coming in through from

our new reporting tool.

We've shown
a marked improvement

in the underwriting result.

GL Wand, streamlined
all our reporting systems.

So that we can keep check
of what is going on.

Right.
And all this wonderful work.

All thanks to the young man
who's sitting over there.

Thomas.

Ah... Hey, I...

You know, I put in the disk
and I pressed install.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

It's a job well done.
Young man.

Thank you.

Well, all drinks on me tonight.
- Oh, great.

Ah...

I can't tonight.
I have something.

A thing with a friend.

What friend?

No one it's...
It's nothing.

I just... I won't be
able to make it.

Ah... sorry.

So things going well?

No light headedness,
no itchiness,

nothing else,
you want it checked?

No, nothing.

So, how you been?

Fine. I'm fine.

The waiting
is always the hardest.

Think I've been
used to it by now.

It should be done.

Yup, it's done.

Good news. It looks like you're
in perfectly good health.

At least according
to the OraQuick test.

Do you want me
to take some blood as well.

No, no, no.
I prefer to alternate.

Um... I'll be back
in three months.

Then you can stick me
with your needles.

Hey, you didn't leave, yet?

Hey, not yet.

Good.

So, you changed your mind.

Ah... No.

Now, come on, man.
Just one drink.

Ah...

Come on. Come on,
just one little drink.

Okay, all right.
Yeah, one drink.

That's good.
That's my boykie.

Actually, you know...

I'm sorry.
I can't. It's...

It's just that I really
promised this friend

that I would...

You're acting too damn hard,
young man.

Ah... it's all for you.

I'll see you on Monday.
See you on Monday.

Take care.
You too.

Make yourself home.

Listen, help yourself to
a drink if you want.

I'll be down in a sec.

Hi.

Hi.

Ah... Monique.

Actually, Monique's
naked in the shower.

But she said
you can just go through.

I'm kidding.
Oh.

Hi, I'm Monique.

You must be Peter.
Yes.

Oh, and Peter
brought me flowers.

No, I'm so sorry. I... spilled
water on your table and your...

adult magazines and...

Oh.

I'm really sorry. I wasn't
looking where... I just...

You know, I'll pay for them.
It's not a problem.

I wasn't looking
where I was...

And flowers, yes.

Yes, I was gonna
get you flowers but I...

I came straight from work.
Everything was closed already.

And there weren't even those
guys on the side of the road...

Sweetie. How about
I get you a drink?

Yes, please.

Aw... Um...

Should I just
put this down?

What's that?

The... fee.

Aw...

Yeah, I mean should I just...
On the table is fine.

Okay.

Is it for an hour
or hour and a half.

Ah, sorry.

The... uh, fee.

Oh, I wasn't sure
how long we're gonna be,

so I just put it for
an hour and a half.

I don't do refunds, baby.

No absolutely.
That's fine. No problem.

You're cute.

Thank you.

And you're not
too bad, yourself.

You sound surprised.

No, no, no, I just... I really
wasn't sure what to expect.

I know the feeling.

Why don't you
take your jacket off.

I'm fine.
Thank you.

Yeah. I mean,
sure. I'll just...

Kick your shoes off.

Ah, that's okay. Really.

Oh, okay, that's
much better, thank you.

It's a really nice place
that you have here.

Why don't you come
sit down a relax a bit.

Sure.

Relax.
Don't be so tensed.

Yeah. I'm...
I'm fine, really.

You're a virgin.
What?

This is your first time?
No.

Yeah. Yeah,
This is my first time.

I'm sorry, I feel
like an idiot.

Relax. I'll take it
really slowly. I promise.

Just a couple of things
before we get started.

I don't do greek.
I don't kiss on the mouth.

And you wear
condom at all times.

Other than that,

We can pretty much do
whatever you want, sweetie.

So,

how about you and I,
just head to the bedroom.

That's okay, I'm...

If you wouldn't mind.
If it's not too much trouble,

I just wondered
whether we could

may be just talk
for a while, first.

Sure.

You wanna talk dirty.

Sorry.

No, no, no, I...

So we could talk
about normal stuff, first.

Peter, it's fine.

I mean, like sports
It's not a big deal.

Or politics.
Peter.

Um... Anything, we can talk
about the weather all I care.

It's just that I...
Peter.

My name is not
really, Peter.

I'm sorry. It's just that
I didn't even know

if I was really
gonna come here.

When you asked for my
name on the phone, I just...

My name is Thomas.
Thomas. Thomas.

I... I don't actually
wanna have sex, okay.

You don't wanna have sex?

No.

No, I mean I wanna
have sex one day,

you know, just not here,
now with you.

I mean you
are gorgeous, okay.

If I was gonna have
sex with a prostitute

you'd absolutely
be the type...

I am an idiot.

I'm sorry. I just...

I just thought I could come
here to a place like this...

To somebody like you to ask
a few questions, just to...

To learn about sex,
and love, and everything.

You know,
but... mainly...

Sex.

So, you don't wanna fuck me.
No.

You just wanna
talk about fucking?

Yes.

May be if it's not
too much trouble.

We might not use
that particular word.

Which word?

Um...

Fucking.

Okay, so what would
you like to call it then?

Um... I don't know,
we could may be call it...

Just don't say making love.

No, no, no, I...

I'm just joking
with you, Thomas.

How about screwing?

Is screwing okay?
Screwing is great.

I love screwing, yeah.

I must sound
really weird.

No, not at all.

So, it's just not intercourse
or no sex at all?

What do you mean?

Oh, there's always oral sex
or I could give you a hand job.

So, do you rent this place
or do you own it?

I own it.

Wow!

You must be
doing pretty well.

Do you want to tour?
Yes.

That'll be great.
Yeah, lets do it.

Okay.

Ah... So this is the lounge.

Lounge, got it.

I'm sure you get it by now.
Right, got it.

It's alright. There's not gonna
be a test or anything at the end.

I promise.

That's a pity.
I'm really good at tests.

Hey, Thomas. I'll be yours
for the next hour and a half.

Seriously, you can stop
trying to impress me.

No, no, I'm not
trying to impress...

So this is the balcony.

You're quick.

It's a great view.

Second only to the view
from in here.

I don't know, I think the view
from the balcony is better.

I wasn't talking
about that view.

What do you think?

Yeah, it's definitely
better than the balcony.

Jeez, you're ice cold.

Won't warm me up?

Seriously,
aren't you cold?

No.

You got goosebumps.

That's for you, stud.

You sure
you're not cold.

I'm freezing.

Why don't you put
something on then.

Men don't pay to see me
in track suits.

I think you
can put it off.

Hey, you can wear
my jacket if you want to.

No. No, no,
no, it's okay.

I've got
something else.

You sure
you don't mind?

No. Not at all.

You wanna watch?

More than you
could possibly know.

Okay, then I'll
just be a sec.

I'll just, eh... stay down here

and stew in the awkwardness
of the situation.

You're funny.

Ah, yeah. I'm better
when I'm not face to face.

Why is that?

Ah, I don't know, my...

My work's like
a lot over the phone.

What do you do?

Sorry?

What kind of work
do you do?

Hmm, I'm in insurance.

It's short term,
long term...

It's so pretty boring.
Really I've...

Just always been good with people that
are like accident prone, you know.

Really?

I'd never say.

Yeah, it's true. Yeah.

I don't know if you ever had to
renew your driver's license.

Ah, yeah. Couple of years ago,
when we all had to.

Yeah, if you can imagine
an office like that

on tranquilizers.

It's pretty much
where I work.

Is it that bad?

Yeah. Yeah, it's just
an office full of men.

Men on the phone.

No woman.

I mean the cleaning ladies
are... a lady.

But I don't think
she really likes me.

Everybody else
kinda likes me though.

Popular. You know,
I might even go as far.

Same kind of a...
Like a ladies man.

Looks hotter.

Warmer, warmer.
Are you feeling warmer.

Much.

Normally I generate body
heat in more creative ways.

Oh.

Like how?

Ah, so that's
how you get over.

No, no, no.
No, I...

Relax Thomas.
I'm not gonna judge you.

Sorry.

And no more apologies.

So, what were
we talking about?

Ah, sex.

Right. Sex.

So, I assume you
sort off with the basics.

Yeah.

You know,
birds and the bees.

Yeah. Of course.

And what else?

And nothing else.

You're joking right.

Nope.

Wait. So, you're...
You're like "Virgin" virgin.

Is there another type?

No, no, no... It's just,
When you said you were virgin earlier.

I thought you were
talking about this

being your first time
with a working girl.

Ah... Then I guess,
I'm a virgin squared.

Wow!

That's...
That's pretty impressive.

That why I do it.

This is just how
I get all the chicks.

How old did you say
you were, again?

Ah, 25.

So this is the other balcony.

Look, I'm sorry.
It's just... kinda weird.

You know, we can just talk about
normal stuff first. You know.

Sex is perfectly normal?

I know.
I know, it's just...

It's just like slowly
ease into the sex talk.

Like...

Is Monique,
your real name?

It's not a big deal.
If we're not gonna have sex,

you could
tell me, right?

Why do you
wanna know?

It's like a step towards
a normal conversation.

What's the difference?

Exactly,
what's the difference?

Come on.

Monica.
My real name is Monica.

Monica.
Thanks.

Do you like,
have a boyfriend?

See you know,
that's private.

More private than
oral sex and hand jobs?

Yeah, that's just personal.

Wait, there's this personal
and then there's private.

Yeah.

What would private be?

You couldn't
afford it.

I actually make
a lot of money.

Private's the boring stuff.
You know like...

Fund repayments,
family things.

But...

Personal... Well...

Personal involves all sorts
of delightful activities.

Sure. But they're
not real.

What?
Wow!

This doesn't
feel, real?

Ah, no.

It feels pretty realistic.

So how did you
get into all of this?

I just love sex, baby.
All the time.

Do you ever
tell the truth?

It is the truth.

Now, how about we
get down to business.

Ah, does your
family know?

Private.

I just...
I just mean you don't...

You don't
tell anyone?

Will you tell everybody
you came here tonight?

No. I guess not.

May be if my conscious
gets the better of me.

'Cause your conscious get
the better of you a lot.

How could you tell?

Well...

You're 25 years old.

Good looking.

You're a virgin.

Came here
to learn about sex.

But you can't seem
to talk about it.

Are you like
very religious?

Hmm... No.

Do you go to
church and stuff?

Yeah.

How long?

It's far back
as I can remember.

So you're like
really religious.

No, I wouldn't
say religious. But...

I guess, yeah.

So you're just like Jesus,
visiting the prostitute.

Not exactly.

How religious?

I don't know.

Not very, if you're
with prostitute, eh?

I guess not. It's not like
we're doing anything. So...

No. But...

I thought the whole
bible thing was...

If you look at a girl,

you just think about
having sex with her.

It's like you've
actually done it.

Ah-ha.

So?

Have you had
sex with me, I think.

May be.

May be. What's that
suppose to mean?

Like five
or six times already.

You're a horny
little bugger.

Yes.
No, I just

trying to make a joke.

Relax, Thomas.

Do you ever
go to church?

You say it like you've
already decided the answer.

No, no, no, I just...

It's just that I grew up
in the church, you know.

What? That makes you the
expert on who goes to church?

Yeah, I guess.

Nice.
No, I...

I'm not trying
to insult you.

My dad is the pastor of this
small conservative church.

And you know, all my memories
are out of these

crusty old people used to shout
at me for stealing communion.

Then used to sing Amen very
loudly after each hymn.

So?

So it's just difficult

to imagine you
in that environment.

Oh, well. I've been
a couple of times.

Christmas, Easter...
Really?

I never did go to a church
where they're sayingAmen,

after every hymn. So...

I don't think
our paths crossed.

Yeah, I doubt it.
My church has like 300 people.

So everyone knows
everyone else's business.

And besides, you probably
recognize me

if you been there.
I sing in the choir.

Really? You're
a choir boy, huh?

That's kinda sexy.

Yeah, I preferred
the choir man.

It's not like I wear
a frock or anything.

Still, it's kinda kinky.

Amen!

I used to love
those old hymns.

Ah, it's all
we ever sing.

Nothing new,
nothing contemporary.

Sing me one.

No.
Come on, choir man.

We're not gonna screw,
or even talk about screwing.

And the least you can do
is entertain me with a hymn.

That's not gonna happen.

I could do something
for you in return.

Tempting.

Something that's
not intercourse.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, I'll sing
for you. If you...

Tell me how
you got into this.

You're just
not gonna give up.

♪ It is well
It is well

♪ With my soul
With my soul

♪ It is well
It is well

Ah, nice try.

♪ Attendeth my soul

Sea below rolls

So?

My mommy used to
sing that to me.

And I forgot,
of course.

She had a terrible voice.

I used to like pretend
that I was asleep

just to make her stop.

That's funny.
You still see her?

No. No, I don't.

And me neither.

You don't see
my mom any more.

My mom died like
three years ago.

Long pathetic tragedy
very boring,

but yeah, I don't
see her any more.

You were kind of
a mama's boy, eh?

And I have
two older sisters.

Ah
Ha, the truth comes up.

Come on. How did you
get into all of this?

Do you want anything else
to drink?

I'll sing again
and that's for a cause.

I'm from Cape Town and that'll
be surreal torture. Trust me.

What's the big deal
of trying to get to know me?

Yeah. Come on,
it's an easy question.

Why did you do it?

I just love sex, Thomas.

Isn't everyone? Doesn't mean
that we all become. You know.

How did you
get started?

Was it the money?

Come on, it's gonna be more
to it than just that.

I mean...

Did you ever
study anything?

You're joking right?

No, I'm serious. What did
you dream on doing one day?

Who says I didn't
dream of doing this?

Here, with you.

I'm serious.
I really wanna know.

If all you wanted
to do is talk,

you could've chatted to your
church buddies for free.

Well...

Uhm... The church just isn't
the same since my mom died.

It's just...
It's just different.

What about you? Tell me
about your girlfriend.

No.

Come on, tell me
about your girl.

I... I don't
have a girl friend.

No? A guy like you?

That's kinda
hard to believe.

It's just the way it is,
you know.

But you've had
a girlfriend before.

Yeah, of course.

Recently?

Kinda.

When?

Ah... I don't know.

Like a week ago.

Wait. So that's it?

What?
That's why you're really here?

What?

She wasn't
giving you any sex.

No. No, it's...
It's not how it was.

What was it like then?

Yeah. Things didn't
work out. You know.

How long?

It's about four years.

Four years and no sex.
No wonder things didn't workout.

That's not how
it was, okay.

It should have been
a lot of touching, huh?

No.
She must've been

pretty frigid.
No. No.

She wasn't for...
'Cause I'm telling you,

four years is a lot of
investment to make for no sex.

How would you know?

You're right.

I should be showing you,
what I do know.

Just leave it, please.

Come on, I know there is big
bad boy somewhere inside.

I told you.

Please baby, I'm just
dying for a good screw.

Look!

I know, you don't actually
wanna have sex with me.

Okay.

I mean, this whole pathetic
charade is a stupid joke.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
But like...

Won't you get tired
of all this fake stuff.

I mean, ever
since I came in here,

it's been a big act.

So?

So it's not fair.
What do you mean?

I'm me, I'm being me you know.
You just giving me nothing in return.

Oh, you're just being
you aren't you, Peter?

Yeah. Okay, sure.

I'm sorry 'bout that
but I came clean.

I know baby... Please.

Don't call me, baby.

Can we just chat. Let's just
chat like... Just like...

Two normal people.
Two normal adults.

Without all this crap,
please.

I don't do that.

Why not?
Because I don't know you.

But you would've
had sex with me.

That's my job.
And that's easier than

a honest conversation.
Yes.

How?

Because that's
just my body, okay.

Look, sweetie.
I'm sorry.

But I really think you
should rather leave.

Come on. I mean what?
Is it too much to ask?

You know. From the woman's legs
go all the way down to the floor.

Don't talk to me like that.

Like you've been talking down
to me ever since I came in here.

That's not fair.

I'm like the cute
religious virgin freak

who doesn't have... Yes,
you're a freak and I'm not your therapist.

I don't want therapy!

I just need
somebody to talk to, please.

Okay, fine.

You wanna talk.

Let's talk.

You're pretty stupid
for a smart guy.

You think
this is it.

Things happen here and then
you leave and that's it.

This isn't some
little bubble, you know.

Leave here and go home
to your family and friends

and tonight still happened.

If your girlfriend
finds out.

That's damn
real to her.

She wasn't even here.
But you can believe me,

it's fucking
real to her.

That's the reality, Thomas.

Yes, I know.
I'm not denying that.

Yes, you are.

You wanna have
this real time here.

Really get to know me.

Meet someone and share
something special.

Something intimate.

How, even more
intimate than sex?

And then...

One day I'm gonna walk by
you in a shopping center.

And you'll be there with your
pretty innocent girlfriend.

And our eyes will meet.

And I'll just keep walking by,
'cause I'm a professional.

And that'll be more than
fine with you.

You'll drop your eyes.

Grip your girl's
hands a little tighter.

And you know why that's
not okay with me?

Because you'll know me.

Not my body.

Not what I look like
when I'm naked

or how I sound
when I come.

But me.

You can't have that
for a 1000 rand an hour.

You're right.

What?

You're, you're
totally right.

I'm sorry.

I've had sex before.

With my ex-girlfriend.

And it was terrible.

Was she also a virgin?

Yeah. She was.

It was so awkward.

I was so nervous, man. But we
were freaking horny and...

The next thing,
it was just happening.

And I guess, I just thought
that after all this time

it would be like ecstasy,
you know.

But it wasn't?

No.

I was trying to be
so cool, you know.

So in control.

I couldn't even get it in

I was... find the...

And when I did. I'm like...

Oh, man. I was just
trying to hold myself up

after my hands
were still shaking.

She's just like,
"Slow it, please. Slow it."

All of a sudden things
aren't so erotic any more.

Couldn't even come.

Just held it for a while, you
don't know what to say.

Have anything to say.

Went to get a towel,

"not white" she says.

I'm looking at her
and she's curled up on the bed

and I look down on my...

It was covered in...
Man.

She's just...

She's just cute.

It was real life, Thomas.

It was a little too real.

I'm telling you, man.

Those Hollywood directors
should be shot.

It was nothing.

And it was like nothing
like the movies.

I'm not naive, okay.

Okay, I'm a little naive.

But obviously, I know
like what we see it's...

It's an exaggeration.

Give me a freaking
break. It's like...

What? Just throw her up
against the wall and plunge in.

You know,
there's no lubrication

or fondling. No, no, no.

He uses sloppy kisses
and wash her face.

Sharon Stone, squealing
like a hamster, you know.

There is no, "Oh sorry,
I'll go to the toilet quick",

Or what's this sticky mess.

No, you know what.
I will tell you, what.

Let's just have multiple
orgasms, you know.

Like in perfect synchronization
on a kitchen sink, no less.

You think she sounded
like a hamster?

Shows you
what I know about sex.

Okay.

So, you wanna know
about great sex?

And forget all
that stuff, Thomas.

Everything you've seen,
were imagined.

It's just not
like that.

It's not about...

orgasms, coming,
and all that stuff you said.

Great sex is about
making yourself

the most vulnerable
that you've ever been.

And trusting someone
with that vulnerability.

We were. I mean,
I can't imagine...

No, you weren't.

It's not about being
physically naked,

it's that your
feelings are not there.

What do you mean?

Did you tell that
you were nervous?

You thought
you might mess it up.

Because that's being
vulnerable to someone, Thomas.

When you get that tried.

Doesn't matter
if it's pretty or not.

Because it's not just
about you any more.

It's about both of you.
Being honest with each other.

That's it. That's the secret
to great sex?

Hey, you got it
from the source.

Like you don't ever
get to have that.

More coffee?

Yeah, I just thought it might
have something to do

with the squatting crane
or the sideways...

Side what?

You know, kamasutra stuff.

Yeah, personally I'd advice
against anything that

refers to form animals
and the title.

Thanks.

Well, I should...

Yeah.

So, what are you
gonna say to her?

Who?

Your girlfriend.

Actually, she was
more like my fiancee.

That's quite
a big difference, you know.

Yeah, I know.

We kinda had
for four years, so...

Everyone. I mean, everyone
thought we gonna get married.

It is a... Just a lot.

You know, kind of went
without saying that

we weren't gonna have sex
till we're married. I mean,

that's just the way
it is you know.

Sex is for marriage.

Getting married so that
you can have sex is like

buying an airplane, so that
you can eat the peanuts.

Yeah, I guess.

It was more than that you know,
we were in love and...

In the beginning
it was fine.

We knew what
we wanted in our...

You know, our focus was
on honoring each other.

I don't know,

as we were closer
to being married,

we just let things go
little further every time.

I didn't tell anyone how I was feeling.
I mean, what?

Gonna talk to God about how
I wanna do my girlfriend.

I dealt with it for 25 years
you know, so I'll be fine.

It's just like,
it's consumed me.

I felt so guilty
all the time.

We kept keep telling ourselves
that we're gonna be, okay.

And one day it just happened.

How long ago was this?

It's like two weeks ago.

Wait.

So you went
out for four years.

Finally, had sex once and then
things just didn't workout.

Yeah.

Wow!

I was just bad for a man.

Oh, you were bad
for then, not before.

Yeah, before, after...
just...

It wasn't how
it wanted things to be.

What?

Nothing.

What? What is it?

I assume you can just knock
yourself out. Good night.

Wait a minute.
What's going on? Moni...

Monica, don't touch me, okay.

I can't even touch you, I mean little bunch
of filthy pigs touch you whole day long...

Yeah, well these are honest about
who they are, when they come in here.

Excuse me.

You want some honesty?
Okay, fine.

You're a fucking bastard. What?

You screw your girlfriend because
you're both horny as hell and

maybe it's a little bit
awkward and

"Oh, she doesn't look like
every girl in a porno mag"

that you never looked at.

It's all over before
it's even started.

And then...
Then the guilt sinks in.

And suddenly
she becomes this...

living, breathing monument
to your hypocrisy.

You figured, she deserves
better than you

And really you just don't
wanna be around her.

You fucked her.

The only way you can
get over your own guilt

is by not having to see her
any more. Am I right.

I'm right, you know,
I am, you prick.

I can't believe it. You just
said that you wouldn't judge me

For what?
Because I'm a whore.

No.

Thomas, if you want
somebody to tell you it's okay.

Go to your priest.

You think I can go
to my pastor, my dad?

Oh, what the hell type
of church are you playing with?

You can't even tell the people closest
o you about something like this.

You're right.

Me and my life is just
as much a lie as yours.

Selling these
rubbish fantasies

for every guy that
comes in here.

Making him feel like he's
the only guy in the world

that you ever made
love to, baby.

Screwing guys that
you know have wives,

you know have families.

They come to me.
They know what they get.

It's crap, your whole life
is a big fat lie.

What you think this is just
gonna go one day, huh?

What you're gonna meet
some prince charming

he's gonna be so fine
with the fact

that you screwed
hundreds of guys.

You know what? One day you'll be
walking through a shopping center,

men will be staring
at you and your husband

will wonder, if you
ever did that guy.

And, so what?

I'll see you.

We'll both know...

we did it together.

You'll know, that it was
the monster fuck of your life.

And you'll compare
everything to this.

To this moment now.

Best sex you ever had with
the worst girl you ever knew.

It's what you wanted
since you came in here.

Is it what you want?

Oh, it's what you want.

I know you do.

You're right.

I do wanna fuck you.

Why are you stopping?

You're shaking.

Here, I'm sorry.

Is that it?

I'm sorry.

Just like that,
you're just gonna leave?

Yeah, I'm sorry. This
whole thing was a mistake.

Money.

Yeah.

It started
because of the money.

My mom made me do ballet,
growing up.

Used to love to dance.

I had two months rent to pay,

my varsity fees was due
in a week and I saw this ad.

I wasn't forced into it.

I knew what
I was doing then.

I knew exactly
what I was doing.

The very first time I walked
into the parking lot

with one of the guys
for the extra cash.

Why you telling me this?

Because, Thomas,
you think, you understand me.

You think, you understand
what just happened here.

But all you've
done is talking.

Really you haven't
heard anything.

You know, they say, you don't
pay a hooker to do what she does.

You pay to leave
when she's done.

That's exactly what you
did here, tonight.

Only difference is you're
pretending you haven't.

Like you pretend that you just
got into this for the cash.

What?

You want me
to make up some

melodramatic story
about how I grew up?

What it was that
turned me into a whore?

Because there has
to be a reason, right?

In your perfect
little world

there has to be a reason.

Can't just be that,
this is what I chose.

I must've been a real slut
in high school, huh?

Someone, al the boys knew
was a surest thing. Right?

Oh, it didn't start
there, did it?

Before that.
Way back,

I must've been raped.

Abused.

My dad, he did
this to me, didn't he?

That's why I turned out
like this. Isn't it, Thomas?

Amazing.

So, suppose all
the other stuff about...

your dad and growing up.

That was just a lie too.
Right, Cristy?

Right, Thomas.
You're right. Well done.

What do you mean, "Well done"?

You been just lying
to me the whole time.

Yeah, that's it.
You solved me.

Good job, Thomas.

It's all a lie.

So I'll just keep living mine
and you can keep living yours.

Hey, wait.
I'm not lying.

May be I'm a little bit,
but not on purpose.

Oh, I see. Your lies
are better than mine.

Well, yeah.

I thought you were living.

No, I still have
27 minutes left.

You're right, sweetie.
You do have 27 minutes...

Please, come on. Please.

Fine.

No, it's just... You're not
understanding, Okay. It's like...

Just wait. I've never
done this before.

You think I didn't peg you from
the minute you walked in here.

What do you mean?

You're wireless guys.

Come to a club and say,
you don't want a private dance.

Still have like
a 1000 rand cash

in your jacket's pocket,
just in case.

Yeah. You're number one
fear is that you think,

you'll be caught cheating,
or that you contract some disease from me.

No. The thing you're
most worried about?

Is that, I might think you're
just like every other...

What did you call them?

Filthy pigs.

Who comes through
here everyday.

You'll do anything
to convince a whore.

That you're
actually a nice guy.

Well, I'll have to break it
to you, Thomas.

That you're
not a nice guy.

There's no such thing.

Yeah, I know.

Don't bullshit me.

If I hadn't stopped earlier,

You would have
loved to fuck me.

Hear moan and scream,
even if I was faking it.

You would.
You would.

Come on, admit it.
Yes.

And no.

What do you
mean yes and no.

Yes, sure. Okay, there's a part
of me that wants that.

There's another part that does
wanna do the right thing.

You are schitzo.

No, I'm not. Come on,
like you don't feel like

there is... well, You don't do
what you're doing, you justify it.

But deep down you, there was another way.
Another life.

You're on, Thomas.

I made piece with my life,
a long time ago.

This is it. I don't need
anybody's pity.

Definitely not yours.

I don't believe you.
You don't believe what?

You don't long for that
type of sex that you

explained earlier.
That type of intimacy.

That deep down you're not hoping
that one day it's gonna be...

Fuck off, Thomas.
This is what it is.

You just said,
there's gonna be times

when sex is more than physical it's
vulnerable, it's about sharing.

Thomas, I told you what
you wanted to hear.

No you didn't.
You paid me.

So I made you feel better.

No body lies that well.

Well, I do.

You meant it.

You did. You did.
No, Thomas.

'Cause you had it before.
You know what it feels like.

The type of honesty...

Fuck you! Shut up.

That type of love,
that's what love is.

You're so full of shit.

No. I'm not trying to...

Do you have any idea,
how many men come in here?

Tell me that they're
having sex with me,

because they
love their wives.

They're fucking me
'cause they love their wives

too much to leave them for not
satisfying them sexually.

Love is just an excuse to do

all sorts of horrible
things to each other.

No.

What do you
know about love?

I know enough
What do you know about love?

What do you know?

I know it's convenient
for men like you.

We had nothing.

That Yakub spent
more money than he did on me.

My mom didn't know I was gone
till I called her that Monday.

She was furious with me.

My dad, he was
furious with my mom.

We'd done it.

We were in Jarlsberg,
we were both studying.

I was even
getting some A's.

What happened?

We were just about making
enough to get by, but then...

Um...

Yakub, failed his one semester,

and we weren't gonna
make rent that month.

He said if I could support
him while he studied,

he'd do the same for me,
once he started working.

So?

So, I could use some guys
with one of the clubs and...

I still loved to dance.

Made you strip?

He didn't make
me do anything.

I was in love,
remember?

When I brought home
the first pay check,

everything seemed, okay.

Then?

He started
feeling guilty.

Like it was his fault
that I was stripping.

He finished his studies

and decided he wasn't
in love with me any more.

Told me that it was
best for me.

He also said that,

Shantal, his study partner
really understood him.

If he stayed with me, it would
just be unfaith to the guy

who was really gonna
make me happy one day.

Wow.

Load of crap.

Yeah.

You think that's
what I'm doing?

I think, that nothing men do,
surprises me any more.

Not up until you told me, you broke
up with your fiancee for her sake.

You were the first guy who
surprised me in a really long time.

I just want to get it right.

Just want to get it right.

Screwed it all up.

No, Thomas. Your church
has screwed you up.

What? No sex before marriage.

And there's no safety net,
no support when you're with...

It's not like that.

Yeah, may be my church
it's kind of it.

It is supposed
to be like that.

What do you mean?

I mean there's
a difference between

my church and my faith.

Okay, faith is the ideal.

How I'm supposed to be.

And the church
is just sometimes...

the broken institution trying
to maintain that ideal.

Broken sounds like
a massive understatement.

I know.

It's my dad, you know.
Ever since my mom died

it's like somebody broke the huge
piece off of him. The best piece.

It's like the peace that
understood grace and forgiveness.

Please, grace and forgiveness is like
the furthest thing from religion.

I know. I mean.

You're right. Why do you think,
I'm here and not in my church. You know.

There are these things which
are missing from religion.

But religion is what
kept me a virgin.

May be it's kinda but...

It's bigger than that,
you know, it's faith.

Which is the basis
of all religion.

The fact that
I get to choose.

It's an amazing combination of free will,
and the fact that there is a greater plan

for my life. Somebody big
is in control, you know.

All I've to do is ask,
and I could be forgiven.

So why don't you just ask?

'Cause I'm ashamed.

Well, maybe it doesn't
really work.

Maybe it's all just
idealistic bullshit.

No, it's real.

I've seen it be real.

In the last two weeks
before my mom died, my dad

realized that she
wasn't gonna make it.

He just stopped visiting her.
Just like that.

It was like he couldn't
comprehend that his

almighty God wasn't
gonna save her.

I hated him for that.

I told my mom that I'm
never gonna forgive him.

And she says to me,

"Don't you ever talk about
the man I love, like that.

"Who are you to hold two weeks against the
man who's given us 30 years of his life."

May be it's just
not for you then.

I mean, that dint mean
you're right, you know.

Love is just a selfish excuse to
do whatever we want for ourselves.

You have a better idea?

Yeah, I mean the love
that my mom had.

Just like she was never
thinking about herself.

What do you mean?

I mean, she just had
the kind of love that

focus on the good
in us, in my dad.

Everyday, I mean,
even in hospital

She's just like unrelenting
on how she loved us.

I'm really sorry.

It's okay. No,
I'm sorry about what I said to earlier

that you'd never
get out of this.

I really do believe that
one day there'll be

a guy that'll take
you as you are

and put all this in the past
and make a new start with you.

The guy's who're coming
here are not like that.

Why do you think I never
use my real name.

Yeah, I guess.

Thanks for your time.

Cristy.

Kareen.

My name is Kareen.

Thanks, Kareen.

I should go.

Listen.

I really meant it.

What?

What I said
to you out there.

You know there
could be this man...

Um...

Somebody that'll
forget all of this and...

I don't know someone you
can trust with all your

Vulnerabilities.

Yeah, sure.

No, I'm serious.

So what about you?

What about me?

Could I trust you?

What?

Could you
be that man?

You're messing
with me right?

What if I was
being serious?

What if I ask you to take me
with you, could you?

It's no way that I could know
that you're really being serious.

I'd like to.

Really I would.
It's just with my fiancee...

I was just joking
with you, Thomas, Peter.

I mean it's...

It's just that you're
really complicated.

Look, don't be silly.
I wasn't being serious.

Look may be I can speak
to the guys in HR,

about getting you a PR job
or something.

Do you really think that I
wanna leave this life of wealth

and excitement for
some boring HR job.

Please, Thomas.
Grow up already.

Yeah, sorry.

Remember, its...

all just an act, baby.

But you kissed me
on the lips.

Thomas, it's been
an hour together

you really think that I'm gonna
change my whole life for you.

I was just
playing with you.

Jeez, you really do live
in your little dream world.

Yeah, I guess.

Thanks for your time.

Okay, look. Nobody
accept well, okay.

I don't believe you.
Thomas.

You were telling
the truth just now

when you asked me
to take you away...

Thomas, what are you doing?

You were, okay.
Just tell me that.

Because I just can't bear
to leave it this way

with all the ice tea
we had and then...

this bullshit at the end.

Just tell me the truth.

Thomas, you're very sweet
and everything.

No, no. Don't do that to me.

Don't talk down to me like
none of it happened, it did.

I stood right there. I watched you say
that, you wanted to get out of this.

And I'm...
I'm sorry okay.

I'm sorry. I'm such a loser and
I couldn't be there for you then.

But I'm here now,

and I don't even know
what that really means.

Look at me.

Please look at me.

I'm not saying that
we'd be together.

But as a friend I could really
help you. Really I could.

Thomas, we are from
two different worlds...

No, no, no, that's not
what you said, okay.

You said, to be that man.

I'm trying.

Okay, I just.

I don't think I can
live with myself,

if all this was
some sort of act.

I have to know.

You wanna get out of this?

Do you want somebody to take
you away from this, Kureen?

What do you want me to say?

The truth.

Just the truth.

I'm a girl, Thomas.

Of course I
wanna be rescued.

It's every
little girl's dream.

A knight in shining armors...

sweeping off my feet
and taking me to safety.

To a place where...

you don't have
to answer the phone

in the middle of the night
sounding sexy.

A place with no
uncomfortable underwear.

Place where days aren't
made out of one hour sessions.

Sure.

I want that.

Thank you.

Oh, man. I thought
I was going crazy.

So, why didn't you
say something to me

when I flaked out earlier?

Please, Thomas. I asked you for
that but that was silly of me.

No, it wasn't, okay.

Listen, I know what I'm
talk about, okay?

May be it is something that
I want deep down inside.

Ah, I don't know. You just
brought it out of me

with all your stupid superman
save the world heroics.

But it's all just
a fantasy, Thomas.

No, it doesn't have to be...

You're the one who keeps
talking about honesty.

Yes, I don't wanna be a hooker
for the rest of my life.

I want somebody to love me.

But realistically,

you're a boy.

You have a girlfriend
who loves you,

who you're gonna marry.

You go to church.
I mean we just...

We're doomed to failure
even as friends.

Don't say that. You don't know
that. I mean nobody does.

That's what faith is,
you know.

It's the substance
of things hoped for.

The evidence
of things not seen.

Thomas, you're wonderful.
No, no, no.

No, really you are.

Hang on, the point is like...

Just because it doesn't
seem like something

couldn't workout. Doesn't mean
that we should give-up on it.

I'm just tired of trying to
make it on my own, Kureen.

And I don't want you
to have too either.

I'm touched you feel
so strongly about this.

I know what
you're trying to do.

You just listen to me, okay.

What you have
with your fiancee...

I'm not talking about her.
I'm talking about you.

We can make plans to get...

Well, you just shut up
and listen to me, okay.

Do you wanna do
something for me.

Yes, I really wanna help.

Well, then go be that man
for your girlfriend.

Go back. Patch things up.
Start over again.

Get married.
I know you wanna.

When you've done that.
Call me.

Call me and tel me, I was wrong
and it can actually work.

Okay.

And you?

I've got a plan.

This isn't gonna be me
for the rest of my life.

I'm gonna get out of it.

Well, get out of it now then.

Okay. Okay,
don't worry.

So I'm supposed to make
everything, okay.

And you just get to carry on.

I don't wanna talk
about this now.

Why don't you give me
a call next week

and we can chat some more...

I don't know if I'm able
to come back here.

Would you just relax
we'll just chat again.

Okay.

Hey, may be we can meet
for coffee somewhere.

I have a coffee machine.

Okay.

It was great for me.
How was it for you?

It was good.

Bye, now.
Bye.

I'll wait for your call.
Okay.

Oh, I'm so sorry
about the flowers.

And the magazines
are in the pillow.

Yeah.

Bye.
Bye.

Hi, it's me.

He just left.

Jeez, five extra minutes.
Will you just chill.

Good. That's good.

Bit of a talker, but cute.

Easy one.

No, no, no.
He paid cash.

Well, I think I hooked him for
another appointment next week.

Thanks.
Wasn't that difficult.

I know what you mean.

Okay. Sure.

Well, can I get it
from for you tomorrow?

If that's good with you.

Okay.

Sure, will do that then.

Okay, sure.

No, I think
I'm done for the night.

Well, tell him I'm
away or something.

I'm just gonna take a bath.

Okay. Okay, bye.
