Simon Page #3

Synopsis: Enterprising liberal Jew Simon Cohen is the lawless lord of an Amsterdam neighborhood, running a 'coffee' shop' (legal soft drugs sale). As soon as they bump into each-other, Simon fascinates gay, up to then conventionalist Jewish dentistry student Camiel Vrolijk and draws him into his libertine world, even all the way to Thailand for B-movie making. Having seduced Simon's whorish girl, embarrassed Simon leaves quietly. Ten years later, the dentist, now settled with a gay partner, lawyer Bram, meets the new cancer-terminal but affluent Simon again.

They were more body-minded than gays.

Well, sugar, it'll only get worse.

Next year, zero percent body fat.

But for them,

guys like me were a novelty.

You're a weirdo.

Kick low. She can't take it.

Time's on your side.

I don't wanna win on points.

I wanna kill her!

F*** her up!

Mawash Shar! Aim for the thigh!

Bring that French slut down!

Tell your mama, dumb-ass ho!

Simon was crazy about Sharon...

but he also screwed

half the local hockey team...

At least a posh guy like me

could fit in here easily.

Foul!

- You can take sides, Camiel.

- Button it!

It's a home match!

There must be some reason

why people not like Simon...

People like us, you mean. Go on...

No, you. I haven't figured it out yet.

Simple. Sex.

I mean, you're into men, right?

Well, Simon's obviously a He-man.

Yeah, but that's just it...

I'm not into He-men.

Well I am.

But they're not on a hockey field.

Hey Mary Poppins.

Go see what they're charging

next door for a salad.

Why don't you just let the guy study?

He got into school and

now you tug on his shirt.

Excuse me? This muppet's

been taking my hand-outs.

It's time he earned his keep.

As initiation, I had to play spy

at Crockett & Tubbs.

My heart was beating.

I was stopped five meters

from the menu.

Bugger off, pom-pom girl!

Or this board goes up your anus.

I'll try to be less conspicuous

next time.

Oh, you first tried conspicuous?

Jesus. Here, Camiel. Study.

Hey, look who's here.

Our top forward.

- Hi there, Marjolein.

- Hi, Simon.

Why aren't you calling me?

Diederik and Taco were there, so...

Why aren't you calling me?

I asked you a question:

Why aren't you calling me?

Why? I don't even have your number.

- Oh. You don't have my number.

- No.

Then you can't call me, can you?

What are you laughing at?

You want another screw?

Not really... I'm going to a movie

with a girlfriend. She's on her way.

No, let's have a nice screw.

Us three are going to his place.

I'm waiting for my girlfriend.

They all say that.

Don't lie to Daddy.

No, we're gonna shag. Play hard to get,

but you're wasting your time.

- Come on, Marco.

- "Come on, Marco."

Don't try and change the course

of history, it won't work.

Seen "Back to the Future"?

I can't. It's not fair on Liselot.

She's coming at 8...

On Liselot? We'll call her.

So, I followed them.

They went into Simon's house

and slammed the door.

But it sprung open again,

not that they noticed.

So, I stood outside...

...thinking:
"Should I go in? Or not?"

Camiel! Great to see you, man!

Go get us some falafel!

Yeah, three falafel pitas!

You said he was in maternity.

"Having a baby?" I asked.

- A fraternity, not maternity.
