Rough trade. -What is it, Max? -The old man has decided to take the painting off the market. What? No, he can't. He fell in love with it all over again. That's not my fault, Max. No? Well, then whose fucking fault is it? I am fucking ruined! You'reruined? I'm fucking more ruined. You can't blame Don Manuel for wanting to spend his last days with the painting. I blame you. Careful, darling. - Max! - [ Grunts ] - [ Gasps ] - Stop it, Cesar. - [ Gasping ] - I'm really enjoying this. I don't know if lcanlet go. [ Groans, Panting ] He's all yours, darling. Come, Julia. I'm taking you home. Aah! Ohh! [ Doorbell Buzzes ] - Are you playing games with me? - At the moment, I'm playing with myself. Did you leave this on my doorstep the other night? These are mine. Couldn't afford the kind you're holding in your hand. That's antique ivory. Hand-carved. Very valuable. So you didn't leave it? Can you set up the pieces the way they are in the painting? Sure. - [ Sniffles, Sobs ] - It's only a bit of celery. A friend of mine died the other day. Police say it was an accident, but I think it might have been murder. And you think it has something to do with this chess game. Was he a white knight? What happens after the black queen takes the white knight? What does white do next? The best move I can see white making is this. He's positioned himself for an attack on the king. - What does black do? - Easy. Black pawn to knight four. Check. Now, white has no choice but to withdraw the white king. King to castle two. And then? Black queen takes white castle. Check. This was sent today. [ Bell T olling ] [ Speaks Spanish ] I'm really sorry about your uncle. I liked him. The police have arrested Max. Max? Why? They think he murdered my uncle. [ Sobbing ] And so do l. You're just upset. I'm sure you don't mean what you're saying. Yes, I do. You don't know him. You don't know him like I do. How well do you know him? Me? Hardly at all. Do you find him attractive, Senorita Darro? No, of course not-- Well, you can have him. I never want to see him again. It is a pity about the old man. Yeah, I see you're all torn up about it. I have to admit, this could turn out rather well for me. If you're waiting for Lola, I don't think it's a good time to talk business. She's a bit on the distraught side today. Actually, I'm waiting for you. Lola and l have already spoken. Oh, you have, have you? You're a pretty fast worker. With the old gentleman's passing, Lola has become sole owner of the painting, and she'll be dealing exclusively with me from now on. Aren't you gonna honor your deal with Menchu? That doesn't seem necessary anymore. Now then, how soon can I have the painting? You can have it anytime you like. I quit. If Menchu's out, so am l. Julia! I was just calling you. Um-- What is it? Listen, I've just seen Montegrifo at the funeral. Don't tell me. I'm out. He made a deal with that bitch Lola. Yeah. I knew it was gonna happen soon as I heard the old man had croaked. He asked me to keep working on the painting. [ Scoffs ] I said no. You can't do that. W-What do you mean? I thought I was being loyal to you. No, darling, finish the painting. Look, don't worry about me. It's your career. It'd ruin your reputation if you didn't finish it. Why the sudden change of heart? You went ape-shit the other night. Well, my philosophy is, if you're gonna get fucked, you might as well lie back and enjoy it. Well, what about Max? They can't keep him much longer. They've got nothing on him. Max didn't kill the old man. She did. Who, Lola? Who else? Come on, Julia. You're looking for this black queen. ------------------------------ Читайте также: - текст Слетая с катушек на английском - текст Код апокалипсиса на английском - текст Рождественские каникулы на английском - текст Вынужденная посадка на английском - текст Конан-разрушитель на английском |
