All language subtitles for Het Smelt (2023)

And now kiss.

Good job.

Fantastic.

Yes. Eva?

A little higher, please.
A bit more.

Beautiful.

That's good.
Shall we take a look?

That's beautiful.

They would have done it right
in front of us.

Do you want to go for a drink?

No, I can't.
I have plans with my sister.

Does that sister really exist?
Or is it just a good excuse?

She really exists.

I was starting to think
it was my fault.

With a book and my phone and I don't know
what else. It was really impossible.

But then it really works,
because we really laughed hard.

Alright, I'm off.

How? Aren't you staying over?

No. Sorry.

We got the key to our cottage today.

But... come along.

Well, mom and dad are also coming by.
Just so you know.

Stop it.

If I want to see our parents again,
then I'm allowed to, right?

Or are you mad because
I'm not staying tonight?

But you understand that we want to sleep
in our new cottage, right?

Right, sis?

- Are you mad?
- No, it's okay.

But no, you're angry.

No, it's okay. Sorry, it's fine.

I'll see you during the move.

Oh, Molly.

Will you miss me, Molly?
I will miss you too.

Will you bring the rest on Saturday?
I can't carry all of that.

- Of course.
- Okay.

So Molly will stay with me?

Yes. She's used to it here anyway.

Next time I'll stay and then we'll watch
a movie and do something fun together.

- Well, I want a kiss.
- Bye.

Give me a kiss.

- Love you.
- Love you, too.

See you on Saturday.

The past is in your mind,
the future lies in your hands.

Eva.

Eva. Are you ready?
I want to leave.

Faster, faster, faster.

- Ah. Hello, my darlings.
- Hello, Marie.

Laurens? Eva is here.

And girls, happy that it's vacation,
right? Yes, I guess so. Come here.

Tell me, what did I hear?

That you have such a good report card. Yes?
I have something for you. Don't tell, okay?

- Here, put this away.
- Thank you.

Oops.

That's getting a bit too small.
You should ask your mom for a new one.

Oh well.

- He's making us wait again.
- I'm here.

Laurens.

Calm down, calm down.

- Laurens.
- What's going on here?

- Look, I have different eyes.
- Oh. Who are you?

- Peekaboo.
- Are you new here?

We're not taking that with us.

- Take some pictures.
- Flash. And now like this, with a beard.

Will you be back home at four o'clock?
You shouldn't hang around there all day.

He has a lot to discuss with his dad.

And stay away from that cesspool.
Eva? Did you all hear?

Stay away from the cesspool.
Kiss?

Have fun, guys.
Enjoy it with the three musketeers.

- Bye.
- Bye, Marie.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Have fun.

Here, let me give you a push.

And one cherry said to the other:
I farted.

The other cherry says:
Yeah, 'cherry' it is.

Look, that swimming pool is so big.

And there's a little dolphin in it.
Look, look, look, a dolphin.

Where is it?

I don't know.

His mom's car is parked here though.

Come on, come on.

Tim?

Tim?

- Don't scratch.
- But it itches.

Shit, it's on that cesspool.

- Is there still poop in there?
- Hey.

Gross, right?

Yeah.

- Well, where is he now? Tim?
- Tim?

Maybe he's inside.

My radio. Stop. My radio is getting wet. Fool.
- Oh, his radio.

- Look, Tim, look. I have new eyes.
- Do you have a moustache?

- Yes.
- Yes.

Oh, boy.

- Come on, buddy. I'm excited.
- Come on, jump in.

Attack.

I'll take a look. Huh?

I'll help, okay.
It's a lot of work for your father alone.

It's only for a month.

Call me if there's anything.

Bye, guys.

Bye.

- Should it be here?
- Yes, what?

- That pool.
- It really doesn't matter, right?

Your brother died here.
Of course, it matters.

- I'll put your suitcases here, okay?
- Yes.

A little respect, please.

It's already difficult enough.

Finally, we can
have a drink together.

- Lots of people, huh?
- Yes.

It's always busy here.

My cousin showed me once.

It's nice here, huh?

This is my favourite place.

And the owner is really crazy.
I think she's great.

What do you think of me?

I find you interesting.

Interesting, but tiring?

Yes, a little tiring.

That was just a joke.

Sorry. That was stupid of me.

I didn't mean to offend you.

Do you want me to give you a blowjob?

Excuse me?

No, I...

- Sorry.
- No no, don't worry.

- No, it's...
- No problem.

Sorry. Sometimes I don't know what to say,
so I just say something.

Let's just have a drink.

Take it easy.

I have to go.

But we just got here.

I don't know...
I don't know what to say.

- I'm sorry.
- It's nothing. It's...

It's not about you, it's about me.

- This one?
- Yes.

Be careful, it's heavy.

Eva, are you leaving now, or what?

What are they doing here?

I asked them to come and help.

Okay. Then you don't need me anymore.

I knew that if I told you,
you wouldn't come.

Yes.

I'm leaving then.

Okay, then leave.

What do you want me to say now?

Just come and join us now. Okay?

I had another gift for you.

So that you think of me
from time to time.

Eva, you're really doing
this to yourself.

Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday, dear dad
Happy birthday to you

Hip, hip, hooray.

Hooray, hooray.

Hooray, hooray, hooray, hooray,
hooray, hooray...

- Hooray.
- Dad, dad.

- Dad, I have a gift.
- Oh, a gift.

Does anyone know where
cheese fondue comes from?

- Switzerland.
- Switzerland.

- Right?
- Exactly, exactly, exactly.

Yum, yum, yum.

- But do you know what that was?
- Sorry.

- Dinner?
- Poor people's food.

- Say. I tried really hard.
- Delicious poor people's food.

Oh, sorry.

And you know why? Because they just
threw all the leftover cheese in a pot

and let it melt.
Hence fondue. 'Fondue' in French is...

- Fondue.
- Melted.

Wine was also very cheap. They added that
to make everything more cheerful.

- Ay, caramba.
- Olé.

Sauvignon fondue.

Mussels were also very cheap.

Now it's expensive, but in the past...

- Thank you.
- Sorry.

That's nothing.

- What else do you have?
- Pigeon.

Pigeon.

But that's from the war.
No, no, no.

- French fries?
- That's still cheap.

- French fries.
- No, caviar.

Sorry.

- Sorry.
- Oh, mama.

- Oh, mama.
- Wow, my butt.

Dad, what else was... expensive?

Thank you.

Thank you. That's enough.

Come on, tell me. What else was
cheap in the past and now expensive?

Mom, Tess is scratching again.

- Help her, Eva. She can't do it alone yet.
- Yes, I can. Look.

You have to grab it and skewer it.

- Shall we... I want to pretend to be a boat.
- Yes, we're going diving.

No, mom.

God damn it.

What am I saying all the time?
Eat properly.

But just laugh for once, Johan.

Laugh?
You don't laugh, you bray like a donkey.

- Yes, you keep complaining about nothing.
- It's fine, Tine. We heard you.

You're boring. Boring and empty and emotionless.
- Stop.

- Are we going to talk about feelings?
- Yes, you don't have any.

I don't have feelings?
Feelings, feelings...

You don't either. It's just
the excess of wine coming out.

- God damn it, Tine.
- Molly...

Get something for that turtle.
Sit down, sit down. Shut up and sit down.

Molly.

- Okay, sit still. This is the last blob.
- We're killing the nasty poop lice.

- Definitely.
- What are you doing?

We're killing the poop lice monsters.

That's how they used to do it.
With mayonnaise and then wrap it in foil.

- Mom, can I have a new swimsuit?
- That's from last year. It's still good.

No, the straps are really cutting into me.

- It's not that bad.
- No, really, I've grown.

God damn it. It's here...

Help me. Put that around it. It needs
to be wrapped so no air can get in.

I'm going to get some eggs.
Nanook. Come on.

Hi, Molly-Bolly.

Did you know that a chicken
only lays one egg per day?

Our chickens lay more eggs.

- How do you think that comes?
- Because we have really good chickens.

Mom.

- Are we going to do something?
- You tell me.

Truth or dare?

Everyone always chooses truth.
That's really boring.

Okay, then say something yourself.

- Ding-dong-ditch?
- Prank call.

- Then Eva can't join.
- That's true.

I know a game,
from boarding school.

- You need girls for it.
- I'm a girl.

Other girls.

- It's not a guinea pig.
- I have a guinea pig and it can't jump.

There's only one animal that can't jump
and it's not a guinea pig.

What is it then?

- Put something out. We are right.
- No, give me that money. I am right.

Oh boy, kids.

Idiot.

- She was only a four out of ten anyway.
- That's it.

- Didn't it work?
- No, but it's not a big deal.

She was only a four out of ten anyway.

- And what was it then? What can't jump?
- An elephant.

- A snail can't either.
- Stupid riddle.

- Yeah, find one yourself, huh.
- I can look for another riddle.

- A much better one that no one can guess.
- Okay.

- Deal.
- Here, look, the friends.

Wow.

Those. We need those for that game.
Come, come, come.

Hey. Do you want to play with us?

You can win fifty francs.

- I count in euros.
- Yes, but I have that.

- What's your name anyway?
- That's none of your business.

Okay.

- Okay, man, how many out of ten?
- Seven. Really an arrogant idiot.

Fool. She has a huge head. Six.

Did you see her boobs? Nine.

Hey, how many points would you give me?

- Yeah, none. You're our friend. Come on...
- Come on, hamburger.

Mom, can we have a hamburger?

- Mom?
- I don't feel well.

- Here, sweetheart.
- Thank you.

Enjoy your meal, huh.

Ah, here it is.

Yes.

A man is hanging from a rope
in an empty room.

No furniture, nothing.

So this man is hanging there, and beneath
his legs only a large puddle of water.

How did this man manage to hang himself?

That is very difficult.

- Did he use a ladder?
- No, no. No furniture, remember? Nothing.

That's difficult, isn't it?
But you wanted a difficult riddle.

You have to put in a little effort,
you know.

And by the way,
why do you actually need this riddle?

Just because.

You don't have to tell me.

Alright. A man is hanging from
a rope in an empty room.

No furniture. There's absolutely nothing.
Just a puddle of water beneath his feet.

What happened?

Did... did he pee?

No.

- What is it?
- Well...

Who pisses when he's dead?

That's impossible, right?

- Alright then.
- Alright.

Come on, take something off.

But...
- Hey, but you have to take something off, right?

Why?
- You have to take something off, because you're guessing.

- You should have told me that earlier.
- You shouldn't have brought your cousin.

You would come alone, guess alone
and you would have to take something off.

She thinks it's fun, so she undresses.
Huh? You think it's fun, don't you?

- Yes.
- See?

Yeah, sure. She doesn't have a choice.
Come on, take something off.

- No, she's the one undressing now.
- We don't want to see her anyway.

- Leave her alone, okay?
- No, you have to undress now.

- I don't want to undress.
- Don't you understand me well?

Yes, I understand you well and she does it.
I don't care what you say.

- Then she gets those ten euros, not you.
- They won't guess it anyway.

That's a very difficult riddle.

It's up to her soon.

Come on, guess.

Was there someone else in the room,
who then left?

He was alone.

Come on, take something off.

Does that puddle have anything to do with his death?
- Yes.

No, it's right.
You don't have to take anything off.

- I'm too hot.
- I don't care. Keep your shoes on.

- I want to undress.
- Later.

Did that man... yes

first try to drown himself?

But that didn't work and

yes, then he hanged himself?

Is that it?

Wait, wait, wait.

Come on, let's go.

Yes, that's it.

That's correct. That's the answer.

That can't be?

Hey, you're lying. Hey.

- Come on, quickly.
- Eva. That can't be the answer.

- To the hallway.
- That can't be the answer... Hey, my money.

- Go, go, go.
- Give my money back.

No.

- Let me through.
- Hey, young man. Stay calm.

- Why are you doing that?
- I felt sorry for that girl.

You're pathetic.
It's a game. Come on.

Okay, sorry.

I'll bring new money next time.

There won't be a next time.
You're out. Let me through, boy.

We're not doing anything wrong, right?

It's just a game.
We just find those girls beautiful.

Hello.

That one is beautiful.

- I know.
- What's his name?

Twinkle.

- And you?
- What about me?

What's your name?

Elisa.

I've never seen you here before.

I'm not from here either.

My father dumped me here.

But luckily I have you.
Hey, Twinkle? Yes.

- Elisa?
- Yes?

- Are you coming to eat?
- Yes.

- Is Agnes your mom?
- Silly.

Great aunt. Or something like that.

See you.

Hey. Hello, Twinkle.

Look.

Do you like that?
Do you like that?

Yes. Is that good?

Evaatje?

What's wrong?

Can I have a bikini?

Why? You don't have anything.
You're completely flat in the front.

Can I have a blanket?

Alright, just a little longer.

Hey.

- What are you doing?
- Shh. Mom is looking for me.

Found you.

- You're not mom.
- Come.

- We're going to wash it out. Come.
- Okay.

You have to sit still.

Mom, I look like a boy.
Stop, please.

You don't look like a boy.
You're very beautiful.

Mom, no.
- Sit still for a moment. Sit still, sweetheart.

Mom, please. Stop.

But come on. It's not that bad, is it?
Just stay calm and sit still.

- Mom, stop.
- Sit up straight for a moment.

- I look ugly.
- No, you're beautiful.

- What are you doing?
- Lice removal, of course.

Stop it.

Should have left the mayonnaise in.
Three days and they would have been dead.

- Stop it.
- Hey, Eva.

Be careful. Be careful with those scissors.
- Stop it.

- Watch out with that.
- But can't you see she doesn't want it?

- It's for her own good.
- Stop it.

No, be careful.
It's not hygienic, those lice.

- If you do it, I'll leave.
- That's fine.

- Away from you.
- That's fine. Just go away.

Then I'll be rid of you.

It's so stupid that suddenly
they've left without you.

The three musketeers,
there are three of them, not two, right?

What's going on now?

If they exclude you or do stupid
things, come and tell me. Okay?

Can I come live here?

But sweetheart, still.

If I had a daughter,
I would have wanted one like you.

You know, you're always
welcome here, okay?

Molly?

Mom?

Sorry about yesterday.

I shouldn't have yelled like that.

You are more like me than you would like,
you know that?

We are both just very sensitive

and it's normal for it to come out
every now and then.

And if other people
don't find that okay or too much

then that's their problem.
You are just fine the way you are.

We are just both sensitive creatures.

Is that why you drink?

What?

Do you drink
because you're so sensitive?

What are you saying?

Just leave then.
I'll do it alone here.

Leave then.

Leave then.

- Hey, Elisa.
- Hey, Eva.

- Hello.
- You again, or what?

Ah, you already know each other?
Why don't you show her your room.

Hey.

She can laugh, too, you know.
Go ahead.

Do you like it?

You can have it.

I'm tired of wearing it.

Thank you.

- How old are you actually?
- Thirteen.

You really look ten.

But that's good, right, for later.

Okay, don't be silly.

Your hair. It's so short.

- Do you always wear it the same way?
- Yes.

You can hardly do anything with it.

There you go.

Do it like this.

Put them forward.

Come on, do it.

Come on.

Yes.

Have you ever had an orgasm?

Of course not.

I've had one on my horse.

Because of the bouncing.

Close your eyes.

Eyes closed.

- Do you know Tim?
- Which Tim?

Tim Goethals.

No.

Is that your boyfriend?

That's just a friend.

But you wish it was more.

Then we'll make sure of that, right?

Hello.

Tim?

What?

Get lost.

- You're okay?
- What are you doing here anyway?

Nothing.

Are you thinking about Jan?

Do you miss him?

No.

I hate him.

They would have much preferred
that I had fallen into this pit.

My mother would have preferred
not to have me either.

- I think we should put him to sleep.
- No, we can't do that.

Yesterday there was nothing wrong with him.
- Twinkle.

- Stay away from him. Stay away.
- Calm down.

What do you think would
have happened then?

That could be anything.
It's hard to say.

Did he maybe
get those yellow flowers?

Not that I know of.

Those are poisonous to horses.
They cause liver damage.

Twinkle. I have nothing else.

I only have Twinkle.

He didn't do anything.
He just fell in that garden.

Hello, ma'am.

Yes, but who is right?

- That's really a mess.
- Yes, yes, yes.

- Alright, I'm done. Thanks, bye.
- That's good. Goodbye.

Ma'am, what can I get for you?

- Hello, sir.
- Hello.

Yes, tell me.

- Sandwich sausage.
- Sandwich sausage. That's for sure.

Good afternoon.

- I put the meatballs in.
- Yes.

And how much do you want?

- One hundred.
- One hundred grams, that's for sure.

Eva?

Oh, Eva. Sweetheart,
I didn't even recognize you.

It's been a long time.

It's been a very long time.

Yes, time flies, huh.

Alright. Is that it?
That will be 1.56 euros, please.

Are you here for the party tonight?

Yes.

Ah, cool.

- Can you help the gentleman already?
- Yes, sorry. Tell me, sir.

- Yes... One hundred grams of pâté.
- Yes.

There you go.

Well, see you tonight, huh.

- Yes. Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

Hey, sis. It's me.

I haven't heard from you in a while.

Why aren't you responding
to my messages?

Please call me back. Love you.

Eva, are you looking for me?

Eva, I'm hiding.

Eva?

Eva, are you looking for me?

- Eva, come.
- Leave me alone.

Come play hide and seek with me.

- Eva, come find me.
- Stop. Learn to play alone.

Come on. More. There you go.
Come on. Swallow, swallow.

- Come on, man.
- Okay, Eva. Welcome back.

Truth or dare?

- Truth.
- Boring.

- It depends on the question.
- Even then.

Okay. What's the worst thing
you've ever done?

I killed a horse.

- Accidentally.
- What?

- Whose?
- The one from the flea market.

- The handsome one?
- Yeah, it's her.

- How did you manage to kill a horse?
- Do you know her?

She's living next door.

- How do you kill a horse...
- Wait.

- Bring her along.
- How do you kill a horse?

I gave it a plant.

- A horse doesn't die from a plant.
- It was a poisonous plant.

- Hello?
- They're here.

- Who is it?
- Come here.

- Yes, just through the hallway.
- Who is it?

- Come this way.
- Come on, one more time.

Don't be a spoilsport. Come on.

They won't dare without you.

Okay.

- But I'll come up with the dare.
- Deal.

- Why are you wearing so many clothes?
- Just because.

- You will be warm.
- And then?

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Hello.
- Hello.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Do you know?

So, about the rain?

- What?
- So...

He walked in the rain
before he hung himself.

No.

- Take something off.
- Yes, take something off.

- Shoes count for one.
- We've really taken a lot off already.

Come on, let's stop. We don't know anyway.
- Yes, we'll stop.

Yes, we'll stop.

If you stop,
you also have to do a task.

You didn't say that.
- Otherwise it's cheating with all those clothes.

You would have been naked for a long time. Right?
- Yes.

- What kind of stupid game is this?
- Does it matter?

Yes, then tell us what we have to do.

- You have to stick your finger in your butt.
- That's ridiculous.

- No, sorry.
- I'm really not doing that.

No, I'm really not doing that.

Okay, I have a better idea.

- We can touch you for ten seconds.
- Ten is too much.

- Yes, do five.
- Five seconds.

Ten seconds.

- Or a finger in your butt.
- Five.

Ten.

Five, no longer.

Ten seconds is not long.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven...

- Yes, okay, I get it.
- Eight, nine, ten.

Okay then.

Okay, ten seconds.

- One, two...
- Wait, I haven't started yet.

Come on.

Yes, go ahead.

- One, two...
- Slower.

- Three, four, five, six...
- Slower.

Seven, eight, nine, ten.

Ten.

What's wrong?

- What did he do?
- Nothing.

What did you do?

Fatso.
- I just touched her. That was allowed, right?

You guys are real fatso's, that's what you are.
And you too. You're the biggest fatso here.

Dirty bitch that you are, letting
your friends do that just like that.

- Why don't you play that with her?
- Yeah, she already knows the riddle.

We're not going below
four out of ten either.

You're so quiet?

Are you okay?

The boys are shutting me out.

It's very good that you came
to tell me that, Eva. Very good.

You shouldn't keep
carrying that around. Right?

Here you go.

Hey, and you look so good?

Beautiful, really.

Enjoy it. Right?

- Hello, madam. Can I help you?
- 150 grams of préparé, please.

Sure.

Yes, but yeah... Hey, why, why, why?

Guess how much I love you.

- No, you deserve it.
- That's difficult, says Big Nutbrown Hare.

- Fool? Who's the fool here?
- I can't guess that. How much then?

So... much.

Hello, sweethearts.

We're not going to eat eggs for a while.

- Oh, why not?
- Just because.

- Not even with soldiers?
- No, not even with soldiers.

Okay.

Where were you?

- Here.
- Yes.

So much. Little Nutbrown Hare stretches
his arms as far as they will go.

Don't stick, sweetheart.
That's annoying. That's too hot.

And I need my hand
to be able to turn the pages.

Big Haas stretches his arms too:
And that's how much I love you.

That's a lot, thinks Little Nutbrown Hare.

I love you as high above my head.

Daddy?

Daddy?

Yes?

Goodnight.

Yes, goodnight.

Not good, huh.

Twinkle is dead, right, daddy.

But I don't want a new one.
I want Twinkle.

Daddy, just come get me here, please.

I just want to get out of here.

It's okay. Jerk.

What's wrong?

I have something for you.

I feel sorry for you about Twinkle.

I'm getting a new one
from my dad anyway.

Ah, nice.

Do you want to play a game?

It's with boys.

Duck, duck, goose, or what?

It can be fun. Look.

I can let you win.

- Did mom see you?
- No.

- Are you sure?
- Yes, she was busy with a customer.

Put them there, behind that trash can.

- Come on, hurry. Put it behind.
- Yeah, hey. Stop nagging.

Mom will see that, huh.
Put it in front.

- Yo, glad you're here.
- Yes, for sure?

Come on, open that door.

Welcome, welcome.
Thanks for being here, all of you.

It's a pleasure to welcome you all here
and see everyone at Ferm.

- A lot of hard work has been done.
- Please come in, madam?

Some have experienced that
first-hand.

- Madam?
- For which we thank you.

We have experienced
fantastic times here.

Happy times.

Especially silly times.

I saw that it started snowing.

We can still have a snowball fight.

So, good times.

But also less pleasant times.

The death of my brother, Jan,

has left a big void

among all his friends and family...
and in me.

But on that void,
on that absence, that ruin,

we have tried to build a new home.

I dare say
that we succeeded. I think.

- Eva? Hey.
- It has become a home...

- Lente.
- For all of us.

- Do you remember me?
- Yes.

Wow, you have changed.
It's been so long. How are you?

Are you doing well?

- Do you still live in Bovenmeer?
- No, Brussels.

Wow, that's exciting.

Let those beautiful stories
about our Jan come.

Thank you.

Well, Brussels, so crazy.

I ended up staying here.
You know how it goes.

Met my guy here and then
started my own business, a hair salon.

Already have two little ones.
Little rascals...

How are you?
It's really crazy to see you again.

Distinguished attendees,
family members, friends,

I first saw Jan at our school.

I had just started teaching
there myself.

Jan was a somewhat quiet boy,
kept to himself. A dreamer, you could say.

In the morning, before the first lesson...

Did he pee hard in his pants
and did the puddle come from there?

No. Right, Eva?

No.

Come on, guess.

Did the room fill up with water, did he
get his head stuck in that noose,

did the room then empty out
and did he die like that?

No, then?

No.

Let me think.

He did it himself.

No flooding, no pee.

Could it be

that he stood on a block of ice,
put the noose around his head

and waited until the ice melted
and he died like that?

Exactly.

What?

A block of ice?

Correct.

But that's impossible, right? It's too slippery, isn't it?
- No, indeed. That won't work.

Now I can choose a task, right?

- Undress yourselves.
- What?

I'm not going to undress.
Can't we do something else?

- Massage each other or something.
- Or undress.

Come on.

- And what about her?
- Eva didn't invent that game.

- She did come up with the riddle, though.
- I won

and I want you to undress.

I'm really not going to undress, right?

No, no.

- Come on, just do it.
- No.

- Come on.
- But no, really not.

Come on.

Did you spoil the outcome?

- No.
- Yes, boy, I can see it on your face.

- That's not true.
- Shut up and undress.

You know who killed your horse, right?

What?

Her.

She didn't tell you, did she,
your girlfriend?

- Is that true?
- No.

- Yes. You gave her a poisonous plant.
- A horse doesn't die from that.

- Yes, it does.
- She also said you're ugly.

- That's not true.
- Yes. That she has a fat head.

Undress.

It wasn't on purpose. I didn't know
about that plant. I really didn't know.

Undress.
- You have to believe me, I didn't know that.

- I just didn't know.
- Undress!

Shh. My mom.

Everything off.

Except your underwear.

And what should we let
your friends do to you?

You didn't think
you could get away that easily, did you?

- I don't need that.
- I do.

Your boyfriend is going to do you

and the other one will help him.

That's what you wanted, right?

Aren't we leaving?

And if that works, then you can do me.
One at a time.

Marie! Marie!

Come on, hold her.

Come on.

Do you want your mom to hear this?

- Cover her mouth.
- Let me go! Stop!

- Stop! Let me go!
- Calm down.

- Quiet.
- Let go of me!

- Can't you do it?
- Yes, I can.

Let go of me!

Here. Take this if you can't do it.

Come on, Eva. Come on.
Do now... Eva.

Hello, Eva.

Are you okay?

But sweetheart.

What's all this?

- I'll be back later.
- Yes, thank you. Sorry, huh.

Come on, it's okay.
Come, have a seat.

What happened?

Did you fall, sweetheart?

What she's saying is not true.

- What's that?
- She did that, with a kick.

- You're lying, Laurens.
- I'm not lying, mom.

- Be honest.
- I'm not lying.

- Mom, I didn't do anything!
- Yes, you did.

- No, I'm not lying.
- Be quiet. Please, just say it.

Go upstairs, Laurens.

- Mom...
- Here, hold this on.

- Go upstairs, really.
- Mom.

- Go to the back.
- I'm not lying.

- Yes. Go to the back, Laurens.
- I didn't do anything.

Damn it, say it.

That must be your period.
That can happen, huh.

I think you better go home.

Take a warm bath.

Huh?

Come on, let's go.

Up.

Yes.

Eva, come on.

Come on.
Come, you have to leave here.

You probably have something
to do with it too.

Come. You have to go outside.

Just walk calmly, sweetheart.
It's okay, come.

Mom?

Thank you.

I am Eva... Eva De Wulf.

I am a childhood friend of Tim
and Laurens Van Den Broeck.

We were the three musketeers,
for those who knew us.

We were best friends.

Inseparable.

And Jan, Tim's older brother,
was always with us.

We were twelve when Jan died
and nothing was the same afterwards.

But Jan was amazing.

He always knew what to do
when we were bored.

And he also made sure
we didn't do stupid things.

I remember once we went swimming
in the Bovenmeerse Plas

because we wanted to cross it.

And Jan came along to watch over us.

And it was said that there were pike
and pipefish in the lake.

And they could drag you away.

I was really scared of these beasts, but
I didn't want to be inferior to the boys,

so I joined in.

Halfway through,
I got cramps in my legs.

The boys were already on the other side,
they... they didn't even look back.

Boys, huh.

I... I have gone under.

I swallowed water.

And I remember thinking about how I
left things at home.

My lunch-box still in my
school bag, all summer long.

My place at the table.

My underwear in the laundry basket.

My clothes on the side of the pond.

And whether it was Tim or Laurens
who would take them that evening.

And then suddenly
I felt something on my legs

and I thought: That's one of those
pike that has caught me.

But it was Jan.

Jan had returned. He

had swum behind me
and gave me pushes.

Jan saved me that day.

He was there when it got
dangerous too.

He wasn't there anymore when we started
playing the game with the girls.

Tim had come up with a game,
with a riddle.

And I had provided the riddle, a
very difficult one. And it went like this.

Someone hanged themselves
in an empty room.

No furniture, nothing.
Just a big puddle of water beneath them.

What happened? Huh? What happened?
Does anyone know the solution?

- Tim? Laurens? What happened?
- Eva.

Do you remember? I...

Marie? Marie...
You know for sure. You knew everything.

Wait, Tim. Wait.

We're not here to talk about me.
We're here for Jan, to remember Jan.

Jan, who fell into a pit and whom we
are going to dig up after all these years.

Wait, Tim. Wait. A song for you, Jan.
We will never forget you.

And if I die, don't cry

I'm not really dead,
you should know

It's the homesickness
that I left behind

I'm only dead when
you have forgotten me

And if I die, don't mourn

I'm not really dead,
you should know

It's just a body that I left behind

I'm only dead when
you have forgotten me

That game... So the girls had
to take off a piece of clothing

if they guessed the answer wrong.
And Elisa, Elisa was a ten out of ten.

She had to and would take off her clothes. Elisa...
- What are you doing?

I am paying tribute to Jan.
