every paper in Europe right now.

What if they aren't? Should we...

We should, Gavin, try and start a dialogue.

No, they're f***ing fanatics.

I don't know why you even agreed

to come here in the first place.

To help the people, to make a difference.

Oh, well, congratulations.

Oh, true idealist, you are.

Maybe you and old Omar over there

really do have something to chat about.

Maybe we do.

Maybe this is all one big misunderstanding.

Jesus! What's happening?

What's happening?

Hey, hey, here!

Hey, don't go soft on me now, mate.

You just remember what I told you,

remember my advice.

F*** them, goddamn savages!

They're just bluffing, they are.

Yeah, just bluffing.

- They don't really have the balls to hurt us!

- Shut up, Gavin.

They can go f*** themselves!

Now don't go mental on me now.

Remember what I told you, hold your nerve.

Please, let me explain.

I've got you.

You really know your way around here.

I take my youth group to the beach

every weekend.

- You should join us sometime.

- You're right.

I should do more.

Yeah, you should.

I have been spending all my time

on the food programme.

It's going to change the world.

I would like that.

Mate.

Good. Very good.

I am impressed. We play another game.

I... I can't.

It is not a request.

And I give to you the first move.

I'm tired. I can't... I can't play.

Voila!

If you don't move soon, you will lose.

Smart move.

Choosing to play, I mean.

Not your pawn.

Are Muslims allowed to smoke?

I thought you said you are not American.

I'm not.

- Spent time in California?

- No.

- Would you like one, then?

- I don't smoke.

Afraid it's going to ruin your health?

Why is that funny?

Nothing. Just you.

Worried about your health.

There are other things

that you should be worried about, Martijn.

Like making your next move.

I have to tell you

it is a pleasure to play with you, Martijn.

Most Westerners cannot play chess

to save their own lives.

I have a theory about that.

Westerners cannot play chess

because they play too much poker.

What do you think?

I don't gamble.

If more Westerners played chess,

they would understand.

There are no bluffs, only calculations.

I think Gavin played poker.

Don't know. Maybe.

I thought you were good friends.

I barely knew him.

How were you introduced?

Me and Gavin?

- On the Internet.

- Not by the woman?

What woman?

The Moroccan woman at Schiphol.

She's my girlfriend.

So you are not married yet?

No, not yet.

But you are thinking about it.

- When the time is right.

- Yes, yes, of course. Life can be short.

Twenty-five seconds.

Fifteen.

- Ten.

- Do you mind? I...

Forgive me, Martijn.

I only want to help.
