Plan C Page #4

Synopsis: Ronald Plasmeyer (Ruben Van Der Meer) is a small-time Amsterdam detective, struggling with financial problems because of his gambling habit. When the Chinese crime boss Hao threatens Ronald's ex-wife and son to get his money back, Ronald comes up with a plan that will solve all his problems. Ronald enlists two petty criminals (Ton Kas and René Van 't Hof) to rob an illegal poker tournament he's taking part in, providing him with a perfect alibi. Quick, simple and non-violent; the plan is foolproof... until people start getting killed. Soon, Ronald's partners take off with the money, leaving him empty handed. To make matters worse Ronald's colleagues in the police force begin to suspect him of the robbery, setting the stage for a nerve-racking game of cat and mouse. Ronald is all-in... holding the worst hand of his life.

I'm not crazy.

So what did you tell him?

You're having drinks with a friend?

You can't involve just anyone.

It's not a school trip.

I want it to be a small crew.

- I know.

Manageable. If this goes wrong,

nasty things will happen. Very nasty things.

Yes I know, you're in a tight spot.

If you were in my shoes,

you'd have given up already.

Listen, I've been thinking...

...I can't do this all by myself,

can I, Ronald?

Right?

Who is that guy? Can we trust him?

- Yes.

Bram is my ex-brother-in-law.

Otherwise I wouldn't have asked him.

He's a professional.

- A professional?

He's a good guy.

A good guy?

- Yes. Like us. He needs money.

But it will affect the plan, Gerrit.

- That's why I thought...

You said there's at least 30,000, right?

Split three ways, it's 10,000 each.

Then you have your money

and we have an extra guy. Right?

Bram, this is Ronald.

Ronald, this is Bram.

Sorry for the slight miscommunication.

- Happens in the best of marriages.

Right. Let me begin by saying...

...that starting now, no one else

gets involved. Let that be very clear.

A small manageable crew.

There's three of us now.

Bram, Gerrit says you can be trusted.

This is the point at which

you can still walk away.

No, let's hear it.

Ok, good.

Sorry, I need a coffee, otherwise...

...concentration.

What can I get you?

- I'd like an espresso. Guys?

Cold Chocolate.

Espresso. Double.

And a double espresso.

- OK. Coming up.

OK, very simple.

Poker tournament in North Amsterdam.

North?

- Yes, North.

On Wednesdays they have

a 500 Euro rebuy tournament.

That's a lot of money. Trust me.

On Fridays it's 200 Euros.

On other days it's 50 Euros. Cash games.

But on Wednesdays:

a 500 Euro rebuy tournament. OK?

There's a back entrance to the office

where all the money is counted.

The door is always open.

There are two guys. Unarmed.

You go in and threaten them.

No violence. That's very important.

Threaten them, grab the money...

...and we'll meet the next day

at that roadside hotel...

What's that hotel called?

I'll make sure you know where it is.

That's it. Simple and clear.

I will take part in the tournament,

so that I have an alibi.

I'll pay for the buy-in myself and so on.

So that's your contribution?

That you'll be playing?

- That's my contribution, yes.

People know me there.

And some people know I need money.

Hey listen, I'm initiating this job.

I came up with it.

I'm just in a tight spot, financially

speaking. I'm not doing this for myself.

Just ask Ger.

Hey, if you're not OK with it...

No, just asking.

Just want to know

what I'm getting into.

OK.

Where was I?

The next day we split the money
