[footsteps approaching]

[vacuum cleaner whirring]

[Nadia] Hello.

Hello.

I gotta talk to Hanys.

He's in the back.

Thanks.

Oh!

There's our starlet.

[sighs, sniffles]

You want a drink?

Martini, whiskey?

No, thank you. It's a bit early for me.

Eh, not for me.

You don't mind, do you?
Not gonna sit down or what?

Rollo came to talk about protection.

- Ah, yeah, times are tough.
- [Nadia] Hmm.

Uncertain.

You never know what the next
thousand years will bring, huh?

[Nadia] Hmm. How much?

Nadia.

For you, my friend, a thousand.

Though... you might wanna pay
in a different way.

I gave up showbiz
a long, long time ago, Marian.

And that old guy you've been
shacking up with for a while?

Can he still get it up for you?

[Hanys cackling]

He does just fine.

[sighs in amusement]

Well, f*ck.

Of all the women in St. Pauli,

you were always a favorite of mine.

[Hanys sighs]

[tense music playing]

I'm sorry, that's over.

Are you scared of me?

You seem different now, Marian.

You didn't use to be this way.

I've got two months in advance.

[Hanys] Come here.

- Come here.
- [Nadia screams]

[Nadia grunting]

No!

[Nadia screaming]

No! No!

THE MIRE

[music fades]

- [loud beep]
- [cell door opens]

[distant shouting]

[guard] Hurry up there, Chief.

- [loud beep]
- [cell door opens]

Chief, here you go.

What a wonderful end of the year, huh?
Name and date.

[birds squawking]

[dog barking in distance]

[Rollo] You! Get in the car!

Are you deaf, m*therf*cker?
I don't f*cking have all day.

[wistful music playing]

[muffled] Teresa.

[music fades]

[TV] First responders are prepared
for the impending Y2K bug.


Police stations will have IT technicians
on call in the event of a disaster.


If the lights go out, the fire department
has generators on standby that can be...


What's the matter with everyone?

They believe the world's ending over this?

Think so, Krzysiu?

No way, sir.

[commander coughs]

Whenever I see you, Jass,

I'm sure that my week
is getting off to a bad f*cking start.

- I'm not too happy either.
- [commander groans]

Okay. What do you want?

What phase of the investigation are we in
on Wanda's case?

Preliminary.

Standard procedure.

Anyway, I think she'll turn up.

I wanna be on it.

[commander laughing]

Why not go halfsies with Mika, huh?

Jass, I mean, it's a cakewalk.

She ran off with her boyfriend.

You've got a way of turning nothing
into a huge, steaming pile of dung.

And more importantly,

due to your personal relationship
with this particular missing person,

you simply can't be objective.

- This computer is Wanda's.
- [commander sighs]

We decrypt this password,
and I'll find her.

Jass, just go get some rest

because you look like
a bowl of piping hot piss,

so let the cops
do their f*cking jobs, okay?

[in Romani] Kiss my ass.

[door opens]

- [door closes]
- [sighs]

[in English] Is Babe here?

Uh, he's still on the b*at.

Good evening.

[Krzysiu] Well! Officer Jędrula! Welcome.

Uh, have you got something for me?

[laughs] It's like with the frogs, right?

You get them in a cold pot of water,

and they don't notice
when they're boiling. [squelching]

I bet the manager d*ed that way.

No, no, no. It was a pot for crayfish, so...

[dunking sound]

- Good afternoon.
- [both laugh]

- Oh.
- Oh. [clears throat]

Oh, I'm sorry, Counselor.
Come on back, please.

Hey!

We'll cut him up, and we'll find out.

[doctor] After you.

Upstairs.

No. Why did...

Oh!

See this here?

Cavities in, uh, the lower left premolar

and the upper right premolar.

Oh, and another one
was starting here as well.

Anyhow, the important thing is

her few cavities
all have these composite fillings.

They're not cement fillings,
which means she lived after the w*r.

Have some kinda guess at her age?

From the teeth, I would guess
no older than 25 years.

Although... the pelvis tells me

she was already a mother.

When did she pass away?

- Early sixties at the earliest, I'd say.
- How about the latest?

The same decade.

It'd need time to decompose
to this degree.

Super. Thank you.

Ah! Ma'am!

She might've been a swimmer too.

Oh, a swimmer.

Yeah, a muscular chest, damaged shoulder.
Of course an inflamed labrum.

[Babe] Counselor!

Uh...

I was wondering if you, uh,

might, uh, maybe wanna
go see a movie together?

Uh, yeah. I dunno.
I'm busy these days, is all.

Yeah, sure.

Uh, excuse me, then.

What's playing?

The Matrix, yeah?

Have you seen it?

No.

- Jesus Christ. You scared me, Jass.
- Mmm.

What are you doing here?

[Jass sighs]

Glad to see you, too, man. How are you?
Babe, how about a favor?

It'll be off the record, I'm guessing?

I need you to help me
open Wanda's computer.

[scoffs]

Yeah, right.

Come on, man. Tubs can barely find his way
to the precinct. I need you to help me.

[chuckles]

Okay, then.

- I have a demand for you though.
- Hmm?

"Sergeant Babe" from now on.

Because I just became sergeant.

- [Babe chuckles]
- Okay.

[Babe laughs]

- [Jass laughs]
- Leave it here with me, okay?

Thanks.

Sergeant Małecki,
I've got one more request for you.

[Babe sighs]

[electronic music playing]

Wait here.

You, hey. Boss here?

He is, yeah,
but you're gonna have to wait.

- [Rollo] Give me a water.
- [scoffs] Get your own water.

Yeah, wiseass.

Let's go.

Give me a sh*t of vodka, will ya?

[uneasy music playing]

How much?

[bartender] No, it's on the house.

[music fades]

Rollo, get the f*ck out.

Sit down.

I said sit down.

[Hanys sighs]

You wanna smoke?

Thanks, I don't smoke.

You should eat.

I said eat!

- [Hanys sighs]
- Mmm.

You do drink, though, right?

Mm-hmm.

So?

Tell me, how is freedom treating you?

Mmm, I haven't really had time
to enjoy it.

[chuckles]

I'm sure you're curious
about why you're here.

Mm-hmm.

We got the information
that you're pretty good

at managing large businesses.

And I'm angling toward that sort of thing.

I mean, I'm sure you heard
the story with the hotel manager.

- Fucker got boiled.
- No.

Literally.

That is where I need you to come in.

Why me?

Well, 'cause the supervisory board
of the hotel

is going to have to find a new manager.

I've put your name forward
for the role, actually.

And also, I'll tell you a secret.

Your name's the only one.
There's no one else.

[lighter clicking]

You're my hero.

Mmm, I'm your Horus.

[uneasy music playing]

Now get the f*ck out of here.

Ah!

And you know what?

Polish your look.

You f*ckin' look like sh*t, man.

Thank you so much. I'll see you.

I dunno if you're fit to be driving.
It's a bit risky.

[Jass] Get in the baby seat.

[chuckles]

But you're right.

Took your time, huh?

The lot was giving me grief for taking it.

[chuckles] And what'd you smash into, huh?

Did you open the computer?

- Yeah, of course I did.
- Well, let's go, then.

[Babe] Redhot.com.pl.

[modem static]

Voilà!

Thank you.

MIG-17: WHAT'S UP?

[Piotr] "Mig-17." Who's that?

[mysterious music playing]

MIG-17: I FOUND A JOB
AND RAN AWAY FROM MY DRUNKEN FAMILY

I KNOW SOME COOL PEOPLE.
THEY CAN GET YOU A JOB

- This guy ring a bell?
- No.

Uh, maybe that's the guy
she made out with?

Huh?

Uh, the other day, she had a hickey
on her neck. She was at a party.

[Jass] What party?

Um, at Kitka's.

Who's Kitka?

Well, it's her friend
from the... the volleyball team.

- [phone ringing]
- [sighs] The office.

Excuse me.

[sniffles]

This is her, um...

address and phone number as well.

[TV] Authorities are recommending
that on December 31st,


everyone should make sure
to have cash on them.


- Avoid getting into elevators.
- [doorbell rings]

And, just in case,
defrost their refrigerators


in the event there are any
power outages at midnight.


[mysterious music playing]

[Jassijej] Mr. Wanycz,
if I'm not mistaken.

Yes.

You and I have a mutual friend,
it would appear.

[Jassijej] We, the people...

How should I put it?

...of the old order,

should look out for each other
because nobody else will.

Mmm.

Not many around. Not these days. [laughs]

I've heard you were the one who found him.

Yes.

Came to the man's party, then, right?

[Wanycz] Sort of. Hmm.

What's your business with me?

I have to find the son of the manager.

I figured that you might be able
to help me do that

because people have told me
that you're in the middle of everything.

[both laugh]

Not anymore.

I didn't even know the manager had a son.

His name is Filip.

He should be about,

I guess, around 40 or a bit older.

Apparently, he used to work at the hotel.

And what's your business with this guy?

I've heard about your big quest
to find a... package, right?

Why don't we do this?

You help me to locate the boy, yeah?

And I maybe find a way to get you
what our dear manager didn't give you.

[mysterious music playing]

Oh! Excuse me,
but can we get the check, please?

One sec.

[man in German] Waiter.

Excuse me. Can I get a second helping?

Yes.

You know what I mean?

Of course I do.

Helenka, the redhead.

Did she say anything about me?

They rarely say anything.

Excellent product.

Top-notch, as they say. World-class.

I'm doing my best.

I can see that.
That's why I have another task for you.

I'm looking for a certain Witold Wanycz.
Do you know him?

No, but I can find out.

- Got a piece of paper?
- Yes.

I have something for him.

A package from a friend from Germany.

What is it?

A letter. Just a regular letter.

Uh, where did you learn
to speak German so well?

During the w*r.
I used to milk cows for a German farmer.

[laughing]

[in English] Second helping!

Noodles are selling like crazy.
And two pork chops.

You got it, scallywag.

Mr. Kociołek.

My office, please, son. Now.

Oh sh*t.

Shut the door, please.

Please sit down.

There are rumors I've heard.

Some very disturbing rumors.

Our beloved hotel.

Because it is our hotel.

The fruit of our labor. Yours and mine.

I've heard rumors here

that someone's been going around

behind my back, now, mind you,

soliciting women on my watch.

That's impossible.

An employee here?

I think so, yes.

I'm informing you

because I've got boundless...
boundless trust in you.

Like a son.

Thank you, Mr. Szustak.

So, if you find out anything,

you see it, or hear anything,

tell me immediately.

I'm always available.

Of course, sir.

Now go to the market,
and bring me fresh meat from Haśnik

because whatever's in the kitchen reeks.

I mean, you couldn't
make a broth out of it.

I'll see you.

[indistinct chattering]

MUNICIPAL SPORTS CENTER

[whistle blows]

[Grochu] Now, 20 more laps,
and we're done! Move, move, go!

- [whistle blows]
- [water splashes]

You're set up nicely here.
Lots of fresh meat.

And how. Hello there.
Sport is good for you, Kocioł.

I keep telling you that.

Oh, hey, man.
Do you know a guy named Wanycz, huh?

Strip, ladies! Come on now!

- Hey!
- Uh, get dressed, I mean! Get dressed!

Wanycz. Wanycz, Wanycz.
What do you wanna know, Kocioł?

- You secret police or what?
- Grochu, I'm gonna smack you.

[laughs] You turned bright red.

Kocioł, there's one guy.
He's a writer, I think.

- Where does he hang out?
- Where else does a writer hang out?

A f*ckin' bar!

Thanks, you've been a big help.

Sure.

There's a problem with Szustak.

He sniffed us out.
We gotta put the brakes on it for a bit.

That's perfect, actually,
because Helena's finished.

[scoffs] Are you serious right now?

Have you seen what that bastard pulled?
He choked her, man.

He b*at her like a bitch with a stick.
He's demented.

Don't be petty.

- His money is as good as anyone's.
- I'm being serious.

Kocioł, I'm sayin'
it was her last job, okay?

Anyway, she's got
a real flair for the water.

And we can't let that go to waste.

- Flair for water?
- That's right. [tuts]

Well, f*ck.

[Grochu] Jump on in. Warm up a bit.

[horse neighing]

[indistinct chatter]

[girl] Ouch!

It's a mixture from Germany.
Uh, the tooth won't rot underneath.

[in Romani] It's a mixture from Germany.

The tooth won't rot underneath.

Thank you.

[in English] Thank you.

It's nothing.

[dentist] Just a little bit longer.

Ah! Just a bit longer. We're almost done.

[in Romani] Tell me.

Why do we need all this?

We've always lived on the road.

No doctors, no dentists.

Now they want to keep us here
and treat our teeth their way.

[Jassijej] The world is changing.
So must we.

There are no endless roads anymore.
The world has no mystery.

How long are you going to sulk like that?

It's a good time to settle down.

If you believe anything has changed,
you're wrong.

They still think we're thieves.

I don't give a sh*t about them.
I care only about my kind.

I want them to be healthy
and live with dignity.

It's time to wait.

Have you seen Ania?

She went to the forest with some kids.
God knows where.

[children] Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.


[dog barking]

- [boy in English] Stop! Mister!
- Oh f*ck!

Mister, you gotta help us.
Anuszka fell in a tar pit! Quick!

- Where is it?
- There!

[uneasy music playing]

- It's there!
- No, it's there!

- No, there!
- Quiet!

[water burbling]

[buzzing]

[grunts]

[grunts]

[panting]

Damn it.

SWIMMERS' SUCCESSES
IN DISTRICT CHAMPIONSHIPS 1964

[door opens]

Nadia?

[door closes]

- [keys jingle]
- [Wanycz] Hi.

Did you have a hard day?

Yeah, you could say that, I guess.

What's the matter?

Nothing. It's just
a spot of Fall gloom, is all.

Want some wine?

I would.

[glass thuds]

Did you know the manager had a son?

No.

- Called Filip.
- [wine pouring]

No, never heard that before.
How do you know?

There's a guy looking for him.

What happened to you?

To me? Nothing.

Zarzycki's daughter is missing, though.

Wanda?

Wanda.

Oh God. f*cking hell.

Come on.

[doorbell rings]

[door lock clicks]

[electronic music playing]

- Yeah?
- [Babe] Hi.

Are you Kitka?

Yeah, why?

We've got some questions for you.

About what?

[Jass] About your friend. Wanda Zarzycką.

Don't know her.

- Excuse me. What are you doing? Hello!
- [music stops]

[Jass] Was she alone at the party
or with a boyfriend?

Wanda is missing.

You could be in trouble.

- She was alone.
- Till when?

I can't be sure.
She left to meet him at, like, midnight?

You know him?

No.

But she was buying something.
Maybe he's a dealer?

A dealer that didn't crash the party?

Who do you live with?

Nobody.

How old are you?

Seventeen. Why?

So then, who bought you this?

My father.

Last name, please?

- Hanys.
- And your first?

Hey, Sergeant.

I think we have what we need.

And we've gotta go.

[uneasy music playing]

You listen to me, you punk.

Wanda's my daughter. If it turns out
you're lying, I'll f*cking k*ll you!

- I don't know where she is!
- Jass! Jass! Let it go!

What are you nuts? f*ck.

My apologies.

[door opens]

Are you completely f*cking mad?

Do you know whose daughter she is?

Jass, for f*ck's sake! We'll be lucky
if she doesn't complain to her old man.

Who is Hanys?

Why don't you ask your g*dd*mn stars?

- I gotta go to Wunderland.
- But who is he?

I've got my own job to do. Do you hear me?

- [car door closes]
- [engine starts]

I got carried away a bit.
This is difficult for me.

[Babe sighs]

I'm sorry, Babe.

[Babe sighs]

You feel like you're okay
to get behind the wheel?

Yeah, sure. Thanks.

[Babe chuckles]

Can you find the IP address of that guy?

[Babe sighs]

Please.

All right, yes, but that's the last of it

because Tubs is the point man
for this one.

Take care of yourself, Jass.

- [TV playing]
- [phone ringing]

[groans]

Hello?

[Jass] Did you know Kitka was
a gangster's daughter?


Um...

Which gangster exactly?

Hanys.

[dark music playing]

News to me, no.

Well, I'm on it.

[music intensifies]

[man on PA]
The holidays are approaching fast.

That's why Wunderland
has prepared a great selection of offers


for the end of the century.

Everything about our special offers
can be found in our brochure


"Wunderland and Family,"

which you can find at
the information kiosk on the ground floor.


- Good evening, miss.
- We're about to lock up for the evening.

We got a few more minutes, don't we?

[woman] Come in.

[door closes]

[woman sighs, clears throat]

I'm looking to book a spot
on this one here.

Oh, I'm sorry,
but that particular trip sold out.

- Pretty quickly, truthfully.
- [laughs]

However, in February, we'll have another
with a bonus visit to Castel Gandolfo.

Perhaps you'd like to book that.

I heard that a spot
was just freed up recently.

- We're closing for the evening.
- Hmm.

So why don't you just print out a list

of all the folks who got a spot
on that November trip for me?

Aren't there laws around privacy?

Seems like you've seen
too many movies, miss.

[siren wailing]

Okay. Have it your way, Jass.

[modem static]

[mouse clicks]

[keyboard clicks]

[Mika inhales]

What's up, huh? Wha... what you looking for?

Mmm, Mig-17.

[Mika groans]

What?

It's some random guy's nickname online.
I dunno.

[blows nose, sniffles]

Pu... pu... pull it up, huh?

[Jass groans]

[breathes nervously]

[somber music playing]

[muffled] Mom!

Mom!

Teresa!

[Wanda] Mom!

Mom!

Mom!

Teresa!

[knocking at door]

[music fades]

What do you want?

[Mika] I heard you tra... traumatized Babe.

So you came to tell me off, then?

Babe's managed to track
the IP add... address of the guy.

It's from an Internet cafe.

By the train station.

[sniffles]

How about letting us in?

- [Limahl whimpers]
- [Mika] Krysia's on the night shift.

[Mika whistles, tuts]

- [door closes]
- You're healing fine.

It... it's looking like to me.

But you need internal disinfectant.

And what about that Internet cafe, huh?

They're c... closed already.

The name you got. M... M... Mig-17.

Tha... that's an airplane, r... ri... right?

Romani girl
also t... talked about an airplane.

Could those two... be connected?

To... to your health.

Krysia, she wanted me to leave.

B... because she was afraid.

I... I get high blood pressure.
I can get pretty...

pretty mad pretty fast.

Have you got a plan, then?

I... I'll be out fishing
and walking Limahl he... here.

B... b... beg, beg.

[barks]

Limahl was a... a... present.

So what made you pick this case?

Came during my... my shift.

What a way to go,
ending your career with an open case.

- What a way to go, ending your career.
- [lighter clicks]

Teresa wanted me to change jobs too.

Maybe listen to your wife.

Time's precious, and we forget that.

Who's Hanys?

Wh... wh... why do you ask?

He could be involved
with Wanda's disappearance.

[blows nose]

[sniffles]

He came up as a waiter at the hotel

but went off to W... W... West Germany

to start doing business
at brothels in Hamburg.

He came on back,

and he started luring women away
from the manager.

He has his own club
and... some at the hotel.

You think Wanda's disappearance and
the manager's m*rder could be connected?

I mean, wh... wh... what've
your stars been saying?

- [Mika whistles]
- [Limahl barks]

Who gives a f*ck?

[laughs]

[man shouts indistinctly]

[mysterious music playing]

[coughing]

[bouncer] Got a membership card?

- No, not a member.
- Then you're not coming in today.

Oh, come on.
My friends are inside already.

- [man] Hi, Trabant.
- Hey.

Look, dude, this party's just for those
who have a card for Club Kleopatra.

Okay, fine, then. We can make a deal.

- How much?
- Go to hell.

[hip-hop music playing]

Hey, Chief, hey!

Chief, we gotta speak about something.

You, stay at the bar.

A few words. A few words with him.
Just give me five minutes.

Man, I said wait at the bar.

Hey, uh, get me another drink.
Another one of these. Same thing.

Hanys's tab, yeah.

[pop music playing]

- [Hanys] Raise.
- Yup, I raise.

[woman] Gentlemen, here you go.

Ah, yes, gentlemen.
May I present to you Miss License.

I call her that because
I worked six months to get her.

[all laughing]

No license, no can do.

No can do, but how about a drink
to the woman's health?

- Not that she needs it.
- Well, thank you. That's sweet.

- One more for you.
- She likes him.

Thanks.

Hey, boss. Problem.

Damn it. Be back in a minute, friends.

You won't get bored, I trust.

Hey, Marian, don't take too long, buddy.
We'll be waiting for you.

I thought I told you to wait at the bar.

Well, Chief,
I was waiting an hour and a half.

What do you want from me?

If I'm just supposed to be some kind of...

some dummy business manager,
I got a few conditions.

[Hanys] Hmm.

I wanna get even with
the m*therf*ckers who put me in jail.

[Hanys laughs]

It's not so simple, cowboy.

Chief, come on.
What are you talking about?

I gotta f*ckin' explain to you
how this happens?

Find some f*ckin' Ukrainian,

some f*ckin' Chechen,
or who knows, you know? f*ck.

- [both laugh]
- And then it's done!

Marian, we're waitin', bud. Where are you?

[door closes]

Remember who you are, you piece of sh*t.

[screaming in pain]

And remember to keep sober
when you're on the clock.

Toss the scum out.

And make sure he pays for his drinks.

I sincerely apologize.

Coat check's gratis.

[sniffles]

[uneasy music playing]

f*ck!

m*therf*ckers!

This is a new suit.

[sobs]

[uneasy music continues]

[knocking at door]

[Jass] What did you forget?

[music fades]

Good evening, my dear.

May I come in?

Hmm.

[Jassijej] Do I have to learn
about these sorts of things

only by mistake?

From strangers?

What sort of things?

That you've been sh*t in the gut.

I didn't want you to be worried.

Who's gonna be worried about you
if not your dad?

- You want something to drink?
- No.

You've had plenty too. Hey!

- You know I'm an adult now, don't you?
- Hmm, hmm, hmm.

Show me that.

It's just a scratch, Dad.

Come on, show me.

There's inflammation around the stitches.

They've gotta put you on some antibiotics.

Wanda disappeared.

That doesn't worry you?

You know how teenagers are.

You weren't much better.

How long will you be staying, Dad?

I'll go when I'm done with business.
