her trip to Europe.

- You looked uncomfortable.

- Yeah?

No, I was fine.

Did I tell you? She's part

of a German banking family.

Should I be impressed?

I'm just saying

she's a very sharp woman.

I've seen her sell a painting

back to the artist.

- Hey, Charlie!

- Hi.

- How are you?

- Good.

- Hi.

- Hi, I like

you dress.

I brought

- some friends.

- Hi.

- I'll get some wine.

- They're twins.

They work for a magician friend

of mine, they're part of his act.

I see them as

an installation piece.

Is that how you see me?

No, I see you as...

a nude wearing a dress.

I guess that's accurate.

You behave!

Here's Daisy.

Fashionably late as usual.

What's all this?

- I don't know, I rolled too many.

- Lose a mogul?

Skiing mogul, wise guy.

Last run of the day.

Hi!

I've drunk too much.

Can you tell?

Yes.

What would you have, Daisy? Badge is

into "Chateau du St. Cosme".

"Chateau de Saint-Cme."

Only the best

for old friends.

Not another power cut!

We live in a great city like this

and we can't get

the electricity right.

It's this building.

It's got a mind of it's own.

That maintenance man,

he's always fiddling with things.

It doesn't bother me,

I've got my own generator.

Can't afford a computer...

crash.

- I have to go to the bathroom.

- Yes, I know.

I'll help you.

Don't throw up

before we get there.

It won't come.

- Why get yourself in such a state?

- Men.

It still won't come.

Put your fingers down your throat.

Oh, I can't.

I'll get you some black coffee.

Yuk!

Okay, then. I'll see if there's

something in... here.

What do you think of

the famous Badge?

I'm not sure. I haven't quite

figured her out yet.

Don't worry, you will.

Oh, God, I feel so lousy.

- Why don't you stay with us tonight?

- No.

I'll find my way.

I'll get home somehow.

You'll do as you're told.

I usually do.

Daisy's staying with us tonight.

Oh, yeah? Just don't snore.

Wise guy.

Interesting, isn't it?

- It's from the Congo?

- That's right.

I think it looks kind of nasty.

Yeah, it does.

It's one of the most powerful

pieces of African art.

I kind of like it.

Borrow it for a while.

You could use some more art.

Well that's very kind, but...

He's a hunter, Catherine.

He hunts wrongdoers

and people who cause

sickness and unhappiness.

He'll protect you.

Then we'll take him.

Interesting how he was made for

practical reasons and now he's art.

Who's that?

Let's go to bed.

Don't rush me.

Waiting makes it more exciting.

We'll wake Daisy.

So? We'll wake Daisy.

What do you say

we give her a reason

to be very, very...

jealous. Come here.

Daisy.

I'm sorry

- we woke you.

- Woke me?

Bout three in the morning.
