Original subtitles

[whispering] We're all so messed up in our heads.

PREVIOUSLY

How many more times? It was me who...

- killed Sylwester... - Hepner.

You have to... tell me who killed him.

What do you want from me, huh?

I don't want to lose you! You get it?

I'll tell the girls to stop covering for me

I'm the one who killed Gargamel.

[Viki] Patricia Cichy served time for car theft.

When she got out on parole, it was clear

that if she did the same thing, she'd go straight back in.

So he stole a car, he stunned her and put her inside it.

[Alicia] This footage is freedom for Pati.

Either we finally find a credible witness

or proof that you were the last one to talk to Hepner,

or else these recordings won't see the light of day.

I can't do it. I'll lose my job. Everything. I have a child too.

I protected you but you must do it.

Taking all of this into account, the court finds the just punishment

to be fifteen years' imprisonment.

[sobbing] I would really like to apologize to everyone.

Like Alicja Mazur.

I would really like you to write a memoir of me.

The evidence I have gathered proves that Sylvester Hepner was guilty.

You are being taken in for an interrogation.

Please walk him out, gentlemen.

- Who are you going to cover for? - Let's go.

- Off me, fucker. - Who are you covering for?

Hey, wait! What the fuck?!

Why is that guy here?

- Who? - Richter.

He said something about Hepner's cash.

Okay. What cash?

He said Hepner left a lot of money behind.

I can't go out and just leave you in here.

But I can handle it.

[Pati screams]

Let me go!

- [Sienna whispering] Come. - But what for?

Shush...

Look.

[Pati on a video] Aluta, if within a week you don't find out

where Hepner kept his dirty cash,

then they will...

[breathes shakily] Listen...

they're gonna fuckin' kill me, Aluta.

They want you to go and talk to Wojcik.

She knows something. And don't tell Christian.

[heartbeat accelerates progressively]

TVN AND MAX PRESENT

A SERIES INSPIRED BY A TRUE STORY

THE CONVICT

[Kraszecki] Alicia...

It was his people who kidnapped her. This is never going to end!

Alicia... um...

I know you've been through so much, but it's over now, Hepner is dead.

It's not!

This isn't over yet.

You have to help Pati.

[sighs]

This is insane, you know?

I understand you're worried about her,

that she disappeared and that she lost contact.

But she hasn't just disappeared, someone's kidnapped her.

I even got a video of her. It's Pati...

They want to get to Hepner's cash.

They want Hepner's cash? What cash?

You'll go ask Wojcik, okay?

[sobbing softly] Please, do it for me.

I'm really worried about you.

Get close to her. I don't know. Tell her you've changed your mind.

And try to get out all the details about that cash.

Wojcik and Hepner's cash?

Can you... can you hear yourself? It's crazy.

You'll go ask her, right?

No, I won't go. I won't be a part of this.

I have to help Pati.

- Think about yourself, accept help. - Yes, yes.

Okay? Yeah. I've already seen it many times in the war.

- It's PTSD. - Stop it.

- You won't deal with it alone. - [sobbing] Stop.

It will only get worse, Alicia.

Please, just... Please, do it for me.

[whispering] Help me.

Alicia...

[knocking]

- [inmate 1] Sienna's leaving! - [inmate 2] Goodbye, Sienna!

[inmate 3] Sienna's leaving!

[inmates cheering] Sienna! Sienna! Sienna! Sienna! Sienna!

Sienna!

[poignant music plays]

[cheering and hooting continues]

[inmate 4] May you never come back here!

- You're leaving? - Mhm-mm.

[cheering continues]

Will he help you?

Once he sees it, he will help, hm?

Thank you. For everything.

[cheering and hooting continues in the background]

[inmate 5] Good luck, Sienna.

I checked. She got out of jail yesterday.

I'm telling you, something must've happened to her.

She hasn't called. Not a word whatsoever.

Please, Christian. Don't get me involved in your private matters.

You know this isn't really my problem.

But you wired me to see her, man. So back then it was your problem.

Well, I offered you cooperation.

And, in return for that, I got her acquitted...

Don't worry, she'll come back.

She'll get over it and come back.

This is my woman. I know her.

She'd make a fuss, but not disappear. You understand?

I know I'm right.

You wired me, I did exactly what you asked me to do...

You helped her get out, but please don't leave her now.

I'm not leaving her.

- But you're doing nothing! - Hey! Take it easy.

I'll look into it, okay?

And I'll make sure to let you know. Right away.

Give me some time.

[sighs] All right.

It'll be okay. I'll call you.

There you go, sir. Is that all for now?

Another round, will you, please? Thank you.

[tense music plays]

Calm down or you're gonna make me seasick, you know?

Well, Pati shouldn't have left.

She shouldn't.

I'm sorry to say this, but you're right about that...

You both had the upper hand. You fucked me over.

Lie the fuck down!

I can't.

And... You're not safe either.

- That's bullshit. - No, it's not.

Neither you, nor Wojcik, nor me, nor...

Nor Pati, nor Sienna, nor Hannah...

I'm gonna make you some lemon balm, okay?

They're controlling us, they're watching us...

Everywhere. They know everything.

And we're gonna pay for it.

No shit.

Keep it up. They're controlling us, can you see that?

Uh-huh. Hey, want some lemon balm?

How about I brew you a whole bucket?

[Alicia sobs]

[Agata] What are you doing? - [Alicia grunts]

[Agata] Oh, fuck...

You're really fucked up.

You went fucking nuts, right?

- [guard] What's going on here? - Uh...

Nothing, it's, uh...

Mazur didn't like the repertoire. She... didn't like it.

You both wanna get a nicking sheet?

Well, uh, we'd love to, but who's gonna sign them, right, Ms. Guard?

Mazur, what is it?

[sobbing] I would like to sleep now.

But I can't.

Well, she's... in despair 'cause Sienna left.

I'm just so tired.

- All right. Make her some lemon balm. - I will.

[guard] And clean this up too.

[reporter 1] I have a few questions. Ms. Wojcik, it'll only be a moment.

[reporter 2] One question for you.

Ms. Dorothy, why did you murder these people?

- Was this by order? - From the very top.

- [reporter 3] If so, who hired you? - Someone who paid very well.

[reporter 3] Give us a name!

Mine's Wojcik!

[reporter 3] Who commissioned the murders?

Someone who paid well.

[reporter 1] Very well!

- [reporter 3] Name! - Mine's Wojcik!

[knocking]

I think you should see something.

Come in, please.

If within a week you don't find out

where Hepner kept his dirty cash...

they're gonna fuckin' kill me, Aluta.

They want you to go and talk to Wojcik.

Where did you get that from?

Do you believe her now?

[Pati grunts repeatedly]

Ouch...

Who do you work for, huh?

You're afraid they'll pour acid on you, right?

I brought you some water.

Girl, I fuckin' understand you.

I'm scared shitless too. I understand you're scared.

Because it's perfectly normal. But I can help you.

You need to understand you're not alone in this.

Shiv can help you.

Aluta can even call this lieutenant, what's his name, Piotrowski.

Turn around, I'll uncuff you.

[grunts]

You'll write a letter.

[scoffs] What fucking letter?

[gun cocks]

[line rings free]

Here's inmate Strzelecka, she reports severe abdominal pain.

[grunting] Ah!

Pain ten out of ten. [pants]

I think it's the appendix.

You've had it taken out.

Oh, so it's probably...

ugh... some kind of phantom pains.

[hisses and groans]

Thanks, I can handle it.

Okay.

[groans]

[exhales]

It went away.

I think it's nervousness. I need something to calm me down.

Something strong.

Preferably some benzos.

Benzos?

How about morphine straight away?

It's for Mazur. She can't sleep, she's losing it.

Have her come to me.

Ms. Doctor...

have you wondered where the money for Mikey's treatment came from?

Definitely not from my savings.

You owe that to her.

A lot of benzo.

No, no. Leave me alone.

- [softly] Yeah, yeah. Shh.Shh. - No. No! No!

No. No. No. No!

- Open your mouth. - No.

Swallow it. That's a good girl.

Wash it down.

Did you sell me out?

How much am I worth?

It'll start working soon.

- How much am I worth, eh? - A bag of jelly beans and tampons.

Now let's go to bed, okay?

Hmm...

Lie down and say a prayer. Come on. Come.

LIEUTENANT BARTLOMIEJ DWORAK

PERSONAL ORDER

I APPOINT YOU TO THE POSITION OF PENITENTIARY CHIEF WARDEN.

[whispering] Congratulations. They couldn't have chosen better.

- Or there was no one else. - No way. There's always someone.

[door closes]

Oh, when did you get back?

Yesterday.

And what? I have to find out from the guards that you're already here?

Why didn't you call?

[kisses]

[Bart] We need to talk.

What is wrong?

Sit down.

What's going on? Is it about Mikey?

No, no. Michael is doing just fine.

- Then tell me, Bart, what's going on? - I will, in a minute. Okay?

[door opens]

[Basia sighs]

What is it?

Something about Mikey? Is something wrong with Mikey?

- What's she doing here? Shh. - What are you doing here?

- Quiet, calm down. - [Bart] Can you sit down?

Can you sit down for a minute, Shiv?

What?

- So you've made a deal, right? - We've reconciled...

So have you decided to reunite?

And, I don't know, happily announce it to me? Yeah?

Alright. Calm down. Both of you calm down, okay?

We need to sort things out.

Thanks to me he's gotten well.

What do you mean thanks to you? Did you fly with him to America?

- Fuck off, bitch! - You fuck off!

You need to calm down! Both of you!

- Can you take Mikey for a minute? - Yeah, of course.

Thank you.

[Mikey keeps crying]

Alright.

Like it or not, the fact is that we are...

we're a family.

- A family? - [Agata gasps]

- Yeah, the three of us are a family. - [both] The three of us?

Yeah, the three of us! And we're gonna raise him together.

- That's great. - [Basia sighs]

Listen...

She doesn't have custody.

Yes, but she'll get it back. I just applied for it.

Yeah, she'll get it back.

But that doesn't mean there will be anything between us.

That applies to us too. We're divorcing, okay?

I'm going nuts.

Listen, I'm taking over as chief warden starting tomorrow.

[sighs]

While I'm working, Mikey will be looked after by a nanny,

but I'm going to need help from you too.

And you'll get to see your son until the end of your sentence.

Then we'll figure things out.

[eerie music plays]

I knew you'd finally come.

Mm, would you mind if I recorded our conversation?

And how is Alicia?

I'm worried about her.

It's been tough on her.

We were... we were in the same cell, so we knew each other well.

I know about you, guys.

Well, in fact, you could say...

that Alicia brought us together. [chuckles]

Well, that's interesting.

Because I believe she wasn't the only one.

But Hepner also.

I know about his secrets too.

Maybe we should start with my childhood.

I know about the cash...

that he left behind.

And I also know that you were very important to him.

So that cash should have gone to you.

I don't need money.

I still can help you find it.

Before it falls into the wrong hands.

I'm pretty sure he wanted you to have it.

Did he or did he not?

You know what? Uh, turn on that recorder

and we can start with my childhood then.

Yeah, I have so much to tell you.

Christian, I know we were supposed to celebrate my release together,

but I'm sorry. I gotta do this alone.

[shouting] I need help! Help! Ow...

I gotta get myself together somehow. I'll call you when I do...

[ominous music plays]

I'm gonna go see my siblings.

They're waiting for me. All three of them.

[screams]

The Rulewski family bought me tickets to the States...

I'm sorry things turned out this way.

[Pati screams]

[muffled whimpering]

[line rings free]

[Mario sniffs]

[phone rings]

Well, Christian, I was just about to call you. [sniffs]

[Christian] Pati sent me a letter. [sighs]

You have to see it.

A letter? Uh...

Okay. [sniffs]

All right. I'll text you where I'm at.

You have an hour.

[sighs]

I went to see Wojcik.

- Does she know? - I don't know.

But if she does know, I'll definitely go back there and get it out of her.

What did she tell you?

Listen, Alicia... [sighs]

- Please, tell me. - Wait, calm down.

You have to start thinking more about yourself.

Tell me what she said.

You won't very last long like this. You need to get help.

You're helping me.

Did she ask about me?

Okay, if you don't wanna do it for yourself, at least do it for me.

Tell me if she asked about me.

She did.

Can you please call a guard?

But we have a whole hour to ourselves.

Oh. [sighs]

Alicia...

[whispering] No.

[knocks twice more]

Marian Trepka, a cousin.

There. Why hasn't he visited you before?

He lived far away.

Far away...

Hey, cousin.

Are you fuckin' mental? Why did you come here?

I'm here for you.

You know, uh, Viki says hi.

She'd like to revisit your sisterly bond.

Hepner left some cash behind.

A lot of cash. Except nobody knows where.

Why the fuck are you botherin' me?

A couple of million.

Maybe Ms. Mazur knows where it is.

You think that while digging into his past she didn't find anything?

Or maybe she just won't say anything to anyone?

Work on her to help her remember.

Oh, fuck.

Agata...

And it would be good to have someone there with her once she remembers.

I guess we'll be seeing each other. [chuckles]

I'll think about it.

[ominous music plays]

Are you here?

Yes, yes, come in, please.

[sniffs and sighs]

- Hey, there. - Hey.

[chuckles] No, I don't. This is just my mom's old house.

I don't. I look after my mother's old place sometimes.

Oh, so you grew up here?

You know, I was a really cute boy when I was a kid.

Want a drink?

No. No, thank you.

What about that letter?

I know someone made her write it.

I'm sure about it.

Who could have?

I don't know.

She doesn't have three siblings

and they don't... live in the States, they live in Canada.

[sniffs] Maybe they moved?

No, fuck, Mario! They didn't move anywhere.

Someone told her to write that letter. They did.

She just wanted to give me a sign. It's obvious.

Fuck, um, Christian,

how would I know about your encrypted messaging?

It's not about that! Fuck! Just focus. Help me out, man.

[sighs] I shouldn't even be telling you certain things at all.

Do you understand?

And what shouldn't you be telling me?

I shouldn't tell you this until I get the footage from the police station.

Wait. What footage?

The CCTV recorded her partying with a cellmate in Katowice. [sniffs]

They always do that after they get out.

And you're fucking telling me this just now?

And when was I supposed to tell you?

- But is she okay? - She is.

Just let me do my job.

Don't press me on this anymore, okay?

Give me...

Give me one day.

One more fucking day.

How am I supposed to believe you, man?

One more day.

Put yourself in my shoes, okay?

I know.

I'm glad she's alive. Call me, please do. And answer your phone.

[Pati pants and whimpers]

[Pati pants and whimpers]

Okay, so...

You think you're so smart, huh?

Oh, fuck.

I definitely didn't expect seeing you here.

Hm.

But why you?

And you? Why are you covering for Mazur?

You're a real hero, huh?

So...

Tell me, since when do convicts make the law?

The system fucked me over too.

Fuck being the good guy.

Christian will find you and then kill you!

He was just here. And we made a deal.

- You're lying! - Girl, you better pray

your girlfriend isn't late. In that case, maybe...

there won't be any dead bodies.

[Madeleine] The writer left the visit after half an hour.

He said Ala recognized him first, and then she didn't anymore...

If you ask me, he didn't get it up, it was just an excuse.

- Fuck knows. - That's right, no fucks for him.

Ala...

With greetings from Sienna.

Just take one.

- Sugar's invigorating. Try it, Ala. - No, I don't wanna eat it.

- Ala! - Come on, just a little.

At least a half, okay?

I don't want it.

- At least one half. - No.

Come on, please.

Pati went out to get the cash?

Tell me!

Are you with them?

What are you saying?

Don't bullshit me! She went for the cash?

You sold me out, you whore.

- What the fuck's wrong with you? - You whore.

You whore.

Are you feeling okay?

[Anna] Jesus Maria, Ala, back off!

- [inmate 1] Hey! - [guard] Mazur, drop it!

You've got her, but not me!

I said drop it! And against the wall now!

No. Get back!

- [guard] I need backup! - No, get...! [cries]

Ala, please. Ala, please calm down.

I need backup at the cafeteria! Now!

Mazur, calm down!

Mazur!

[crying] Move back!

[Madeleine screams]

[general commotion]

No, please, don't do it.

I need backup!

I've got this.

Drop it, Mazur!

[tense music builds up]

[music fades out]

[Smentoch] She definitely went nuts.

She fucked up the speaker yesterday.

And it looked like she had taken all the drugs in the world.

- And nobody informed me about it? - It seemed she'd get over it.

She probably went crazy after the murder, yeah...

Come on, Doctor, this isn't a fucking sanatorium.

Alicia?

Alica, how do you feel? You know who I am?

We're moving her to me.

[chuckles] That's not an option. She's considered a threat.

It's okay. I'll help you.

[guard] Come in.

- Hi. - Hi.

Here's a referral to Doctor Obara and the inmate's test results.

She's displaying psychotic symptoms, memory disorders.

She can't sleep and is sometimes aggressive.

I can no longer treat her.

- I understand. - Let's go.

Knife. First association?

Uh...

For bread.

- And a rope? - A noose.

A fairytale from my childhood. It's a book. Jadzia the Noosy.

You guys have a new friend.

Sit over there.

What is Mazur doing here?

[Obara] I don't share such information.

Can we get back to therapy?

Yes.

Uh... Could I go say hello to her?

She was so close to me, Doctor. [whispering] Please.

- Please, Doctor. - Go ahead.

Do I know you?

Were we in a cell together?

No, I don't think we were.

You don't have to bullshit me.

I'm so confused.

I murdered a man...

And you don't remember?

And Serafin?

Peter Serafin?

He was a man you loved very much. Remember?

You can't fool me.

Mazur doesn't know anything.

Or maybe you can't get it out of her.

She went totally mental. She is in the psychiatric ward.

Where Amanda and Wojcik are.

She didn't go nuts. She just screwed you over.

Wojcik knows where Hepner hid the money.

Mazur will come back after observation.

She'll be back for sure.

Hey, Shiv, listen, you're out on furlough.

So you got 72 hours of fucking freedom.

What?

That's bullshit.

No.

A bonus for selling your ass to the chief.

[inmate laughs]

What the fuck are you laughing at?

I'm going out. [chuckles]

[ominous music plays]

Wanna play hide and seek with me?

One.

Two.

Three. Four...

- Leave me alone. - What, are you scared of a wacko?

Leave me alone.

[whispering] Don't be. We're all like that here

Five.

Six.

[music builds up]

[guard] Wall! The wall, now!

[music fades out]

Is this a wall?

Come here. Come, don't be afraid.

Don't look at her.

Don't show that you're scared.

Even if you are.

She likes meat, you know.

She bit someone's cheek off.

They were playing hide and seek. So be careful.

Have you recalled anything?

You and I were close...

Us?

And I know what the chief did to you.

[whispering] What?

He beat you.

And Tiny hanged herself because of him. You told me so.

You remember a lot.

Don't look at her.

Don't worry.

[sinister music plays]

May I?

Did you kill him for me?

I had to.

[guard] What are you doing here? Get out, now!

Fuck, at last.

Hi.

Hi, sweety.

[Mikey coos]

He'll probably take another nap in about an hour and a half.

Okay.

Under the stroller, there are...

some bottles, diapers, and a change of clothes. Stuff.

[Mikey laughs and coos]

Thank you.

Bart rented you an apartment.

I know that.

[Mikey laughs and coos]

[pensive music plays]

The address is on the key tag.

And don't fuck it up, Shiv.

I won't fuck it up.

[in an excited voice] We're going for a walk.

So did you like it?

Did you enjoy killing him?

What did you feel?

I felt peace.

So would you do it again for me?

You took good care of me.

And he hated it.

He said I wasn't capable of love.

That's not true.

Nobody else loves the way I do.

Noone. One can't take that away from me.

Well, I can be nice too.

- [Dorothy] Don't be afraid. - Hm.

You don't want it?

Go away.

Get away from here.

If you don't want me, then I'll play with your friend.

[giggles]

[guard] Your medicines.

Don't be afraid. I'm here with you.

Come on.

[tense music plays]

Think about it. You can still join in if you want.

You must be delicious.

We treat each other nicely in here.

Maybe even more delicious than her.

And fresher.

Ugh!

[guard] Both of you to the common room! Now!

[both grunt]

[Mirka] Ah! Fuck!

[Mirka screams]

[general commotion]

[Mirka screams]

[Mirka screams and groans]

[biting and suckling sound]

[Milka groans and screams]

[Milka] Fuck!

[inmate 1] That's mad!

[inmates screaming]

[Mirka hypeventilates]

[nurse] Oh, my goodness!

[Mirka wails]

[nurse] Mirka to the treatment room! And Mazur, tie her down!

[Agata hums a song]

[Pati hums a song and sniffs]

[Dorothy singing softly] There once was a king

There once was a page

And there was a princess too

Among roses they lived

They knew no grieves

A matter most certainly true

But a cruel fate

A cruel death became their lot

A cat ate the king

A dog ate the page

And the princess

A little frog...

[whispering] We'll escape.
