Original subtitles

Did you hear a car?

No way.

Are they coming for her?

- At this time? - It doesn't matter.

She has to be in that nuthouse as soon as possible, right?

Frederic!

Why are you here, Helen?

I haven't seen you for so long, honey, I couldn't

stand it anymore.

Give me your coat, you're soaked to the bone.

I wanted to check all this.

Let's see...

"Royale Gendarmerie".

- Nice, isn't it? - You like it?

A life full of frights.

You never told me why you became a mercenary.

You're too curious, Helen.

Come on, get up.

Wait.

This picture is awesome.

You are awesome too!

You always elude the subject, Frederic.

I want to know about your life.

Why did you end up in that guerrilla?

I was attracted to danger.

I was imprisoned and sentenced to death during the war in Uganda.

They enjoyed beating the shit out of me.

I recall I swore vengeance with my bloody back.

I took a sword and killed everyone in front of me.

I don't know how I was able to escape.

I improved my shooting skills in a South American boot camp.

Soon I found a job as a bodyguard for an Arabian prince.

But we suffered a brutal assault

and I still live with a bullet's shell inside me.

That's incredible, Frederic!

Why don't you write about your adventures?

It would make a best-seller!

I need to take care of my life first.

I've made many mistakes.

Am I one of them?

You make me happy, Helen.

- Why are you looking at me like that? -I love your eyes.

You're like a drug to me.

Then I'll stay happy as long as you don't do rehab.

Wait...

- What are you doing? -l'm going to beat the shit out of you!

Jailer!

For your information, I need to be with him tonight.

No, don't go downstairs!

In our bed, jealous girl!

Don't even dare!

Fuck you!

Bitch! I hope your head breaks!

Take this!

She's getting crazier everyday!

Fuck you.

Stay quiet!

Frederic!

Frederic!

What happened?

Frederic, let me see!

What happened, sir? It's you, crazy woman!

Frederic!

Ana, Ana, come help us!

Go on, Frederic.

We were back from a long trip in Holland.

I was euphoric and also drunk at the wheel.

We crashed with a fence and I dumped the car.

She was unconscious for days and never completely recovered.

What she did to you is criminal.

Helen, you must get out of my life.

I'll never be able to make you happy.

I'll make you forget her.

I love you more than ever.

That's why I want to stay with you forever.

T...

The...

H...

The...

Han...

Darling!

Relax a little, okay?

I'll never be able to learn.

Drink your medicine. don't give up.

I know my husband will fend for himself.

I wish I could do another thing with you.

Stop thinking about that.

Well, I'll be straightforward.

There's an irreversible congenital dysfunction.

So you think I'm not gonna make it?

Never, Mr. Payne.

I don't care, Frederic. Remember what I told you.

You're by my side and that's enough for me.

Okay...

See you later, Doctor.

How's my husband?

Your husband still doesn't understand why you married him.

Because I love you.

And now you want a child.

- Is this a solution? - You won't regret it.

I'll love the child as if it was mine.

I trust your husband, but I'm scared.

It's a simple procedure. It's nothing, you'll see.

A bit closer.

Relax, I'm going for my husband.

Yes, I'll be with you at six.

There will be no problem.

We have chosen a man that matches your requirements.

Caucasian, young and strong. You can rest assure.

Yes.

Here's a drink, Mr. Payne.

- You shouldn't worry. - When you want, Gerard.

- BP 9/18. - Good.

I'm so glad you're blind.

So you won't be able to look at your wife.

This sucks.

It's only coffee and milk, just the way you like it.

It's disgusting too. I could eat a whole rabbit!

- For breakfast? - Yeah, and raw!

I understand your cravings,

but I would like you to go and see the Doctor.

What for?

How do you feel, Helen?

Bad.

If I wasn't forced to take this train I'd go to the

gynecologist with you.

I took an appointment for tomorrow.

Meanwhile I'll go to the oculist.

And you better follow my advice.

Don't argue with your husband in front of the child.

If I get the divorce I'll send the boy to you.

He can be wild sometimes, but he's happy by your side.

Peter!

Taxi's here.

You're unbearable. Say goodbye to your uncle.

Bye, Frederic, you're not upset, huh?

I will have replaced the window when you're back.

Fine, bye!

It feels as ifl have a hostile being inside me.

- As if he rebels with a claw. - Easy, Mrs. Payne.

I'm going to look at you right now.

Lay back, please.

Stay still, please.

Helen... Helen!

- What's going on? - Frederic, get me out of here!

Let's get out of here!

Frederic!

-It's baffling. - Why?

I don't know. Come, let's see the files.

The donor: Hans Groener.

Atall and blond German guy who was here three times.

He came to the sperm bank with a recommendation from Munich.

Two girls were inseminated with his sperm before Mrs. Payne.

- Would you give me those files? - I knew you'd ask for them.

Emma Brunner, from Germany.

Eva Aule, a Spanish girl.

- Anything else? - No.

Her visits are recorded until her third month's pregnancy.

After that nothing.

I wanted to tell you the patient has fully recovered now.

It's...

It's a weird feeling, Doctor.

Mr. Payne, we've done our best in order to hide your disgrace.

Right, ma'am?

Helen...

You're crying...

Because, all things considered, I'm the reason of your disgrace.

No, darling, get over it.

She's been very good, the poor girl.

You can take her.

How do you feel, dear?

She can't speak for the time being.

- Here. - She needs to rest.

Put her to bed as soon as you get home.

Goodbye ma'am and thank you.

Nightmare's over, Eva.

What do you want now?

We want to know what you've done to Mrs. Aule.

It wasn't a normal pregnancy.

She had to abort!

You lie, everything was perfect.

The baby should have been born within three months!

My wife was possessed.

You did this, you and your damn insemination!

Don't look at me like that.

I will sue you.

You will spend the rest of your filthy lives in jail.

I'll take care of it!

It's payback time.

- I did nothing! You're all wrong! -You've killed

what we love the most.

You shouldn't have touched that creature.

You have cursed yourself!

All evil forces will fall upon you!

Damn you! Damn you a thousand times!

YOu!

Fourth floor, right?

What are you doing here? What do you want?

What are you doing?

Murderer!

What the hell! Move, Victoria!

- Mrs. Payne? - What do you want?

We are the Eternal Angel's preachers.

A religion you should know.

We've been looking for this house the whole morning.

It's away from the world.

As I was saying to brother Olivier.

I'm not feeling very well. I can only give you a few minutes.

Brother Olivier brings you a present.

Here, please.

Yes, sister...

You have been chosen by our Angel and you'll bear his son.

You carry in your belly the most powerful creature!

The one who is granted everything!

Enough! I'm neither interested in your

religion nor in your proposition.

Or your lies, get out of here!

It's a sign, sister.

The creature could rebel and destroy you if you don't want him!

Give him love and he will love you, serve him and

he will serve you!

It's Leonard's spirit in his own flesh!

When you need him,

call him with these words.

We'll send you a sister to help you out.

Welcome her

and she will make your ordeal more bearable.

There's no need.

Why are you so interested in me? I don't get it.

We worship you, sister.

What are you doing?

Go back to bed, ma'am.

You're spying on me!

What you're doing is disgusting!

Get your hands off me, you filthy thing!

I'm getting sick of you all!

I want to be left alone. No one should care about me!

I could stick this knife through your neck!

You should get out of this house!

Of course I'm leaving!

They took an insane woman, but left a more dangerous one!

Mrs. Brunner?

Don't you hear me?

Mrs. Brunner? Hey, stupid!

Mrs. Brunner died yesterday.

I want to talk to her husband.

Her husband, don't you get it?

He's crying too.

There, inside.

You left me when I needed you the most.

I know who you are!

What are you doing here?

I want to ask you a question.

Not in front of her! Get out!

Where are you going? Get out!

Get out! Get out!

Get out of here right now!

- What's the cause of her death? - Are you asking me?

Murderer!

You're the murderer!

You prevented the birth of the Angel we're all waiting for.

- You'll pay with your life! - No, I did it to save her!

It's been six months of suffering.

Because of you.

You're a trickster!

I can still hear her chilling screams!

As if she had been inseminated with Satan's sperm!

I wanted to take her pain away with my own hands!

And she fell, dead.

I loved her! She was so good, so sweet,

so pure...

No! I won't do it anymore!

Frederic, you must take this.

Yes, yes...

Wait for it to dissolve.

Why isn't Ana opening the door? Tell me, Helen.

Don't count on her anymore, I fired her.

What?

Mrs. Payne?

Yes.

I'm sister Margaret.

Poor thing, it's so scared.

And you're scared too.

Me? No, I'm just thinking about which room you will use.

- I just want a bed next to yours. - What is this woman saying?

I'm doing it for your wife.

I can help her in the middle of the night if she needs it.

You can sleep in the attic.

Me?

Who is she? Helen?

This lady is here to help me.

- Why didn't you tell me? -lt's not a big deal.

Don't get grumpy, huh?

Well, I'm not very happy with this.

- Fours stairs left. - I know this staircase by heart.

Why are you going to bed so early?

I can't stand that intruder.

- We need her. - You need her, not me!

She came to this house to torture me!

She's a damn witch, a devil!

Shut up! Don't say that word again,

do you hear me?

And don't be so contemptuous.

Fine...

We argue all the time these days.

There are things I cannot understand.

What's wrong with us, Helen?

Go and live with your sister.

Until the delivery. It will be easier.

Help!

Help me!

What's wrong? What have you done?

I'm hurt!

What a nerve!

Okay...

I'll take you to the infirmary.

Come on!

Take this!

Stop her! She's getting away!

Frederic!

Frederic!

This is so weird!

- Frederic, where are you? -l'm coming! You scared me!

- What's wrong? - Something horrible, dear!

Why are you screaming like that?

It's dead...

What happened?

Don't worry, ma'am.

I just bought some birds to brighten up your

husband's room upstairs.

Ms. Margaret, what happened to the phone?

There's a line failure, about two miles from here.

- We must warn the company, Helen. - I just did that.

It will take a couple of clays to get it fixed.

A few days?

We have no way to communicate now!

I'm sorry, sir.

Where are you?

Helen?

Helen!

- You scared me! -The plants in the living room are dead!

- Some leaves probably dried out. - No, Helen. No, they are dead.

Everything around is dying!

As if, all of a sudden, the air had poisoned.

When will it be my turn?

You'll end up alone with that damn woman.

I want to be by your side.

- I thought that... - I get upset sometimes.

-L'm growing bruises here. - Bruises?

Don't you see?

Of course you don't! Are you blind?

I'm sorry...

Come on, it's only apprehension.

I feel my skin squeezing up, and these black bruises.

I'm not apprehensive, Frederic. I'm scared!

- You must see Doctor Gerard.

Never again! I don't want to see him!

- They are responsible for-- - Helen, please!

I'm so nervous...

Who's there?

Margaret!

Margaret!

- Why are you screaming? What's going on?

- Weren't you in the kitchen?

- Me? - Yes, you.

The door has opened.

You shouldn't leave the doors open.

I'm after you all day long!

- I didn't d0 it. - What?

- I didn't do it. - Who, then?

Do you think there are ghosts in this house?

You're a pain in the ass...

- I'll help you. - No, it's all right.

Is it possible what I'm thinking?

Open up!

Witch!

Open up!

Damn you!

I know you're there!

What's this?

Get out!

Get out!

Margaret!

Damn you!

Leave me alone!

Filth!

- Who are you? - What has this woman done to you?

Elizabeth! What are you doing here?

L'll take care of you.

- Get off me! - Sit down. Come with me.

Frederic!

Don't g0!

You finally come to visit me.

They could lock me up a thousand times.

I would laugh a thousand times and I'll always be by your side.

Poor Frederic!

- Don't laugh at me! - Don't try to leave me again.

I'm the only woman who have ever really loved you.

After all you did to me... You're cynical!

Touch here!

This is eternal as well.

Come...

I can't resist anymore, Frederic.

By your side, I really feel in love.

I'm not like that bitch downstairs.

I want you by my side.

You're mine only, Frederic! You know it!

Leave me alone!

I want you so bad!

Margaret, I hate you, because you're bad!

You're as bad as your religion.

I hate them for what they are doing to me!

I'll have my revenge!

You're in my bed, Frederic.

A hard and ugly bed.

But now I have you again.

Get off!

It would be beautiful again.

As before.

Do you remember?

I have it all here...

and here too, my love.

It can't be! I'm out of here!

You want that woman to keep hurting you, don't you?

Leave me alone, Elizabeth. I've paid dearly for

what I did to you.

Now it's her turn!

I'll take your rifle.

You taught me how to shoot with it.

Asingle bullet through the heart.

If you hurt Helen, I'll kill you with my own hands!

Here comes the mercenary!

Your violent temper is turning me on!

I like it better when you're rude, you remember?

- Get off me, Elizabeth!

- No, Frederic, you're mine, you know it.

All mine!

I'll make you forget the bad times.

You'll feel alright soon, Mrs. Payne.

Margaret! Margaret!

- Margaret, what are you doing? -l'm covering the mirrors.

All of them? You cover them all! Look at me! I'm horrible!

Those marks will vanish as soon as the child is born.

Why did you choose me? Tell me.

Other women would be proud to be in your place.

I don't want anyone to see me.

- What do you want? - A telegram for you.

Sign here.

And the tip in here.

- Oh, thank you. - Get high!

Frederic?

I'm going to kill you!

- Come here and I'll kill you! - Get off me!

Motherfucker!

Damn you!

- Take this! - Get off!

Take this!

You'll remember me, I swear!

Hey, you! What is this woman doing here?

Since when did you have her in this house?

Why did you bring her here?

Answer!

- Don't answer! - She's still your lover, right?

Say it...

You like her.

You like her more than me because I can't satisfy your instincts!

Enough, Helen! That's enough.

Take this crazy bitch out of here or I'm leaving.

- Stop it, Helen. We're all cursed! -l'll get rid of her. Bitch!

Excuse me, ma'am.

Good morning. I'm Mr. Payne's new housekeeper.

Why aren't they here?

I sent a telegram.

Mrs. Payne isn't feeling well. The Doctor sent her away

for some days.

They left yesterday.

Be careful!

Peter, stop bothering us with that ball.

Nice mourning cloth, did your father pass away?

Peter, don't be impertinent.

I'm sorry, he's so rude.

And pretty naughty-

I wanted to leave Peter with my brother.

I would have returned with the next train.

I have an important appointment with my lawyer this evening.

I can take care of him until they're back.

Peter, would you like to stay here?

I would like to be your friend.

My friend?

- Are you crazy? - Peter!

- I don't like her at all. - Don't be so rude, boy!

You know I can't take you with me.

Mom, you're always bugging me.

You must understand, my son.

I can't keep you with me these days.

- Give me a kiss. - Let's go.

Wait.

Take your clothes.

Bye mom, bye!

Damn!

The brakes failed, you'll have to help me.

Me?

Yes, you.

See that rock?

The big one?

Bring it here.

Hurry UP!

Hurry up, man!

You've got to be kidding me.

Oh, Peter, I only wanted to test your braveness.

- Come here. - Fuck you!

I'll make every mountain snake bite you!

Hello, Mr. Payne. I'm Isa Gerard.

I tried to contact you by phone, but it was impossible.

How's your wife?

- Tell me. - She's bad.

-L'm extremely concerned. - I must see her right now.

Come in.

Helen! Helen!

- Listen darling, this is Mrs. Gerard. -I just want to ask

- I just want to ask you some questions.

Get out! Take her away!

I don't want to talk with anyone!

Take her away!

Try to be rational, Mrs. Payne.

For your own sake.

If you don't want to talk, my husband will visit you.

Damn you!

You can't do anything to help me!

Get out!

- Don't touch me! - Helen!

- Leave me alone! - Come on, dear!

Be nice.

Leave me!

- I don't want anyone to see me!

- Come on, Helen! The Doctor is a friend.

What are you doing with Mrs. Payne?

Can't you see she's not fine? I'll take her to the clinic!

Put her to bed right now!

Ignore her.

She's not able to go anywhere. How can you allow this, Mr. Payne?

I want Dr. Gerard to take care of her!

So make him come here. Mrs. Payne won't move from here!

- Her husband just agreed to let her go.

- Who cares? She's under my responsibility!

Take me to my bed, Frederic, I feel awful!

I'll call my husband. Ancl the police too!

We're 19 miles away from town.

It doesn't matter. I'll be right back, Mr. Payne.

What's wrong, Mrs. Gerard?

The keys, I'm sure I left them here.

You're so nervous, you may have lost them.

- Take our car. - Someone stole them.

Calm down.

-It's very strange. - Don't think badly.

Would you like me to come with you?

It's not necessary..

- Mrs. Gerard... - Yes?

Have you ever heard about a story as touching as Mrs. Payne's?

Do you find a woman's suffering touching?

Helen will have a powerful son.

He will be worth all the suffering.

I don't know. You're a really odd woman.

I told you there's no need to come with me.

Get out.

Mrs. Gerard...

Do you know how the gearbox works?

Yes, it's an automatic one.

What are you doing?

Let me go!

Get off me!

Let me go!

No. No.

Freeze!

Bitch! Who are you?

Why did you try to kill her?

No! Don't hurt me!

I live upstairs, you know.

I won't get downstairs anymore, I swear!

I will catch you later!

Hello?

- Sister Margaret here. - Talk.

Get rid of Dr. Gerard, otherwise we'll be in trouble.

He amuses me. He thinks he's God.

I know.

But the sooner the better. His wife's here.

There?

- That's more dangerous. - No, she can't speak anymore.

Perfect, no witness must be left alive.

It's on you.

Why is she here again?

You want her to kill me, right?

- What are you saying? - Admit it!

You're so frightened you're not thinking clearly.

She wouldn't do something like that.

Calm down, Helen.

- Good night, Dr. Gerard. - See you tomorrow.

Hey! What's going on? Open up!

There's no way out for you, Doctor.

Help!

Okay.

- You wait in the van! - Yes!

- Who is it? - Uncle, it's me!

Peter.

Sonny!

- How did you get here? - I escaped!

Did she see you?

- Let's get out of here, uncle! - No, I can't leave Helen alone.

Where are you, Frederic?

Mr. Payne...

Tell me! Why my wife's in the attic?

I bet you're happy to have us separated.

I'll separate you furthermore. You're a nuisance, Mr. Frederic.

- You damn witch! - You said it already.

Leonard spawned the child you weren't able to give to your wife!

The devil himself!

Damn you, child!

I'm going to get yQu!

Let me go! I don't want him to escape!

What? You?

Peter?

Margaret!

Where are you?

Oh, Margaret, I'm dying!

Sorry!

Margaret!

I'll be in hell soon

and I will get my revenge!

Open the door!

I said open!

Here I come, Peter!

You won't escape!

- Damn kid! - Easy, Mrs. Payne, trust me.

Satan lives!

Satan!

Let me go!

It's over...

Son of a bitch!

Frederic!

We're going upstairs, Helen.
