The Escape Page #2

so aren't they our responsibility?

We can't make special laws

for everybody.

We must see the bigger picture.

Is that what you want?

Special laws for people in distress.

I find it deplorable that every time

we hear of a pig transport -

that has a hint of neglect about it-

we make special laws

'cause we are oh so outraged.

But when it comes to refugees,

it's suddenly all about the principle.

How can your government defend

that pigs are better off than people?

In this case, my hands are tied.

Our supporting party won't accept it.

You know

I always oppose tightenings.

But in this case,

I have no choice.

You always have a choice!

- It's not that simple.

I'm only able to help someone,

if I've got political backing.

That's the name of the game.

Nazir!

You're a good boy

and I choose to believe you.

I have a very special gift for you.

Come...

Abduljabar Khan was just appointed

Home Secretary.

In three days he'll be staying there.

- At that hotel?

He promised his three children

they'd get to see the town mosque.

They must be well protected.

- They only bring one guard.

Nazir... get help.

No... Oh God.

Not my son.

Help me.

Oh God no...

Are you coming?

May I?

- Yes, of course.

I must have called you

a hundred times.

What are you doing here?

- Why don't you return my calls?

I've been working non-stop,

since I got back.

I'm really pressed for time.

I see.

I didn't realize.

I'll wait until you have time.

Okay?

Let's go for a walk.

Come on, don't be so stubborn.

It's just a walk.

Atiny walk.

I thought I was going to lose you.

I saw you on TV,

and it scared me senseless.

But we haven't

seen each other for years.

You've got a wife and kids

and all the things we could've had.

You didn't want me.

No, not back then.

I wasn't ready.

And now?

I don't know.

Sorry. I'm a little nervous.

It's okay.

I was so afraid, Thomas.

I thought I was going to die

in the backseat of that car.

In my mind's eye I kept seeing

all the films of decapitations.

And then...

Then I saw you.

The very last image in my head

was of you.

And nothing else.

Can you imagine that feeling?

To be thinking of you,

when I believe I'm about to die.

Come here.

I didn't mean to...

- Then you turn up out of nowhere.

I never wanted to upset you.

I know.

But you're married.

Yes.

I'm married.

Which is why

we won't do this again.

I won't settle for having you

only in my mind.

I won't do that.

Turkey

What now?

What are we doing here?

If we're ever to get the 4,000 dollars

for a trafficker-

we'll be collecting cans

for three years.

I'm going to Denmark.

Give us the cans!

Let them have the bag.

There is a way to get to Denmark
