obviously faking it.

- Why would he do that?

- To sell his cards, of course.

- What's in the parcel?

- Stuff.

- What kind of stuff?

- For sleeping.

- Don't you have a home?

- I am looking for an hotel.

- Here?

- No, not necessarily.

There are no hotels here, you know.

You could sleep at my place

if you like.

- You live alone?

- Yes.

- Your parents are not in Antwerp?

- No.

- Where are they?

- In Paris. At home.

- Are you from Paris?

- I was. Not anymore.

- I am from Paris, too.

- I know.

- How did you know?

- You can feel it, no?

It's Frank who told you, isn't it?

- Tell me!

- I don't know.

- What don't you know?

- What you are talking about.

If you want to sleep at my place,

it's that way.

Right. So you can better

keep an eye on me.

So a guy steps out of the shadows and

takes off his glasses. It's the boss.

Jean doesn't understand and says,

'That's not smart, I could have shot you.'

And then the boss takes the bullets

out of his pocket.

Jean checks, and his gun is empty.

It's the beautiful spy who did that.

- Then what? - I don't know.

That's where it was left.

I'd like to know the rest of the story.

We don't have that in Belgium.

Look. I'm going to France and then

I'll come back here.

- When?

- I don't know.

- You won't come back.

- I'm telling you I will.

- You won't bother to tell me what

happened. - I will.

I swear.

- Nice weather for travelling.

- Yes, nice weather.

The key is in your left pocket.

Fine. Since when?

Since about 3 minutes ago.

Your man last night... The one who

followed me after we parted.

None of ours followed you after that.

Really? I thought differently.

Thank you for your trust.

- Did you notice something?

- No, just an impression.

- I see spies everywhere now.

- Did you speak to the man?

- No, I was able to lose him.

- So did he follow you or not?

No. In fact he didn't.

"Elias now knows that he

encountered a real policeman.

The man with cigarette did not

belong to the organization

and from Elias's own lips he

heard the crucial words:

Father Petitjean, the suitcase

with coke, tomorrow's train,

the boss who calls himself Frank.

Naturally, the man with the cigarette

was there when the train departed.

Every policeman was probably

on the alert.

Elias is now ready to jump from

the moving train

or to defend the precious

suitcase with his gun."

So Elias was arrested

at the frontier.

In fact, no. To his great surprise,

nothing happens.

He arrives in Paris unmolested,

which worries him even more.

Following his orders, he checks in

the suitcase at the Gare Du Nord

and goes home after having posted

the luggage ticket.

- Hello. Elias?

- Yes, who is this?
