Ryanair final call
for passenger Wilton,
travelling to Brussels,
Charleroi, on flight FR 1014 .
Please proceed immediately
to departure gate 6.
where this flight
is now closing.
Do you want a car?
£10 Theatre Land?
Car? London?
You want a taxi?
Buckingham Palace.
No-one.
Would you like a car, sir?
Are you from Sajit?
I'm not here
to meet you in particular,
but I am here to rescue those
let down by the system.
- OK, let's go.
- I'm over there.
Hey, Okwe, how are you, man?
- Who's next?
- - .
Hey, my turn now.
Let's me go.
Hey!
- Your name is now Mohammed.
- Thank you, Okwe.
Hurry up now, man. Come
quick, quick, quick, quick.
Quick, now.
That bitch!
This shit dustbin city.
So... What, Okwe?
Amoxycillin.
You get that in Boots
all right, or not?
- From a doctor.
- You're a doctor.
I'm a driver.
Look, they say
you're a doctor, right?
You get me something now.
I can't piss fire another day,
man.
I'm a driver.
It's for my wife's sake.
You know what I mean?
OK... So, I'll get you
all the jobs in south London.
OK, I'll see what I can do.
Let me kiss you, Okwe.
Maybe in return
you can get some soap.
Early is as bad as late, Okwe.
Hello, Front Desk.
No, I'm afraid the kitchen
is closed from midnight.
I'm sorry.
Goodnight, madam.
Senay, perhaps today
I can cook you lunch?
No, Okwe.
- So, it's true what they say?
- What is true?
They say you and the Turkish
girl are nesting like birds.
I rent her couch.
In the morning,
when she's working here.
We're never there at the same
time. She has... rules.
You know she's a Muslim,
which means she's a virgin.
Like a little angel.
Ivan, I think
there's someone at the door.
Can you believe it?
One of the fuckers wanted
to put me on his Visa card!
Oh, my bloomin' feet!
Lucky I don't work standing up!
What?
Don't they have hookers
where you come from?
Where are you from?
Somewhere with lions, I bet.
I like lions.
Right... Oh, yeah.
You might want to send someone
to check on the room.
- There is a problem?
- How should I know?
I don't exist, do I?
See you tomorrow.
What's that? You're stealing
stuff already, huh?
Guy before you used to take
whole pigs from the freezer.
But you'd better hide it.
If Sneaky sees that...
Speak of the fucking devil!
Where's the greeter here?
This fucking place!
Hey! Instead of smoking,
you clean this place up!
Okwe! Everything is all right?
What's this? Lunch?
It was blocking the lavatory
in room .
It is a heart.
- A human heart.
- What?
What the fuck do you know
about hearts, Okwe?
Perhaps you should telephone
the police.
Police? You think
I should call the police?
Senor Juan, someone is dead.
OK. You speak to them.
You found it.
You do the talking.
I will introduce you.
What's your full name, Okwe?
And you never told me
where you are from.
Or even how come you are here
in this beautiful country.
Hello? Police?
Yeah, I've got somebody
who wants to talk to you.
Hello? Hello?
You will learn, Okwe.
The hotel business
is about strangers.
And strangers will always
surprise you, you know.
They come to hotels in
the night to do dirty things.
And in the morning,
it's our job to make things
look pretty again.
For your trouble.
You think if you don't take
the money, you are innocent?
Take it.
Do something nice with it.
No.
It came to me last night
in a flash of inspiration.
I can see.
- That's a good move.
- Ah!
Guo Yi,
there's something I need.
Amoxycillin? You got the clap?
No. My boss.
- Which one?
- They're all the same.
In this country,
the health service is free.
You still driving cabs
in the day?
You're going to kill yourself.
I do not care to sleep.
When you go quiet,
it means you've won already.
Go on, Okwe. Don't be nice.
It makes it worse.
Well, shit.
You want Chinese
or English tea?
Chinese.
Don't know
how you drink that stuff.
I found it on a body. It's
blown my head wide open.
You should read it.
Medicine for your soul, Okwe,
Guo Yi,
today I also found something.
In a lavatory,
in one of the hotel rooms.
Someone's heart.
A heart. A human heart.
I'm only telling you
because you are a rational man.
Maybe there's an explanation.
Maybe some guy with one of
the girls had a heart attack.
Rooms are down as empty,
so the Spanish guy
had to get rid of the body.
- Hotels hate dead people.
- It was a healthy heart.
So your boss was right.
Somebody brought it with them.
- Who carries human organs?
- Lots of people.
- Name someone.
- Me, OK? Me.
I do it all the time.
I take my work home.
What I'm saying is, I could,
if I was weird.
And this is a weird city.
Why would anyone do that
to a human heart?
These sound to me
like questions.
I don't ask questions
after eleven years here,
and I'm a certified refugee.
You're an illegal, Okwe.
You don't have a position here.
You have nothing.
You are nothing.
You wait outside.
I'll go get you those pills.
Stick to helping people
who can be helped.
Fresh stuff.
Thank you.
Having only one key
is making this impossible.
I do not want you coming in
when I am there.
At the hotel we are friends.
I am no different here.
How would it look, Okwe?
So it is better I always
chase you down the street?
Wait five minutes,
then knock the door.
Knock very, very quietly.
Yes?
Did you clean on the fifth
floor yesterday morning?
Nothing works!
Senay, did you clean room
yesterday?
What the hell are you
talking about the hotel for?
Water, water, water!
I was wondering if there was
a problem in yesterday.
You can fix these things?
Okwe,
you can fix...?
They were not clean.
- Glasses need very hot water.
- So do women.
Everything here is connected
to everything else.
Okwe, in Africa it is the men
who cook and clean?
This came for you.
- Why did you not tell me?
- I just told you.
You have friends in New York?
Your postcard.
I have a cousin.
Ever since I was small,
she has written to me.
I sometimes wish London
was more like New York.
It would be easy
to drive a cab there.
You have been to New York?
- And you came back?
- I lived there for a time.
In the winter,
they put lights in the trees.
Is that true?
And you can skate in the parks.
And some of the policemen
ride white horses.
Not all of them, but some.
- What did you do there?
- I worked in a hospital.
- You were a cleaner?
- I was there to study.
So, why are you working
in a hotel?
It is an African story.
I've noticed you never answer
yes or no.
You are very strange.
You drink wine, Senay?
Do you want to know
why I left Turkey?
Because you wanted to live
like your cousin?
No, because I do not want
to live like my mother.
- Yes.
- Yes, what?
I do drink wine.
This is a recipe from Nigeria.
In Nigeria they do many
interesting things with pork.
But of course, I used lamb.
Take one three times a day.
Avoid alcohol.
In here. Come.
It's all right.
So she's a popular lady.
My warriors cannot work
with rotten balls.
My friend is just a porter
in the hospital crematorium.
Hello. Front Desk.
No, I'm afraid the kitchen
is closed from midnight.
Tssk!
Hello?
Yeah, Room Service.
Sneaky doesn't know about this?
Sneaky knows about everything.
And you? You know everything
that goes on in the hotel?
No, no,
not so much butter, hey.
You guard the door, lvan.
You see who comes and goes.
You would know if somebody
came into the hotel,
and did not leave again?
Why would someone not leave,
Okwe?
I don't know.
You should remove the crusts,
like in the Ritz.
Everyone leaves, Okwe.
Some leave quickly.
Some stay for a long time.
If you want to stay,
don't concern yourself with
who comes and who goes.
It's the little touches
that make the difference.
That's capitalism.
Now go. Don't forget,
you accept only cash.
Room Service.
Thanks.
OK, you just make yourself
comfortable, and er...
I'll go and freshen up.
All right?
Fucking arsehole!
Come on, babe. Hurry up.
OK, OK.
Calm yourself, sweetheart.
- What are you doing?
- Have a drink first.
You look fine.
Just get out here.
Stop!
Enough. No more.
Where the fuck
did you come from?
You, leave now.
- You don't have concussion.
- How the fuck do you know?
Christ, you must be bored,
getting your kicks
spying on me.
I was making sure the blockage
had not returned.
Perhaps...
- It's Juliette.
- You should go home and rest.
Rest?
Got three more before morning.
So...
Have you ever seen a lion?
Oh, yes.
On TV.
I had it cut. It is yours.
You were right.
This way is more sensible.
Okwe, you must not tell them
at the hotel
that you have a key.
- I tell them only the truth.
- Even so.
Show them that your back hurts,
so they know
you sleep on the floor.
But that is not true.
I sleep on the couch.
The couch is not as real
as the floor, Okwe.
Believe me, I am a woman.
And some of those bitches
won't know what is a couch.
But they know floor.
They clean floors.
For you?
Lmmigration Enforcement
directive!
Open the door.
Miss Gelik?
Senay Gelik?
Turkish national?
Do you have your SAL handy?
Standard Acknowledgement
Letter. Your ID.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I carry it always.
Neighbours, Senay.
They see things.
In the last few days they've
seen someone come and go.
A man.
Sometimes a woman in your position
can be exploited.
There are people living in
London without any papers.
- They prey on people like you.
- Pray?
- There is someone here.
- There is no-one here.
You are aware your ELR status
means you are unable to accept rent.
You are seeking asylum.
Or engage in employment of any
kind for at least six months.
- You're not working, are you?
- Mind if I use your bathroom?
Your case is under review.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Is that all you want?
No, no, no.
You know this stuff will not
only keep you awake.
It'll blow your brains out.
You know that, don't you?
- Hey, Okwe!
- Boy, your licence.
Keys, there you are.
Hey, Okwe, what happen, man?
Hey, somebody's husband
come home early, right?
Anyway, take this.
We don't want the doctor
getting sick, right?
I played them
one of these fellas' songs,
and, actually,
they were very helpful.
It's bound to happen.
You stay here too long.
You start dressing
like an Englishman.
- Where is he, then?
- Who?
I've a date.
Every pay-day, : .
Hey!
Come on, lover boy!
Okwe, will you help me?
Hey, guy before you took L
huh?
- No, no, no, no.
- But you watch the door, huh?
Come, my little princess.
Come, come, come,
lille princesso!
Security room is out of bounds
for half an hour.
Five minutes, max!
Lmmigration Enforcement
directive.
Can I help you?
What time
do the maids clock in?
- Wakey wakey!
- Five o'clock.
Do you mind if we wait?
No.
Excuse me, sir.
This is a non-smoking area.
If you wish to smoke, you can
wait in the designated area.
It's for you.
Hello? Okwe?
But I am almost there.
Senay will be here
in two minutes.
You must stop her.
I have a medical condition!
Lightning doesn't strike twice!
- Is that the last of them?
- Yes.
This is an interesting place.
Would you like to see
a rate card?
I have a friend.
In her factory,
they always need people.
It's a sweatshop.
Is it any worse
than cleaning up after whores?
It's better money.
Oh, you are so sad for me.
I do not wish to cause harm
to anyone.
That is all it is?
I will collect my things
and go.
- Go?
- How can I stay?
Okwe, who will cook for me?
If it's OK, I will call on you
if I have the time.
But I'm owed three days' money
by the hotel.
I will see Senor Juan
tomorrow morning.
I have no money for food.
I will see him today.
Meet me at the cafe at four.
You are here to see Senor Juan?
Looking for work?
Vous travaillez?
- Francais?
- No, no, no.
M'aidez.
Yoruba? You speak Yoruba?
Bantu?
What the fuck
are you doing here, Okwe?
Senay has decided to leave.
She asked me to collect
what she's owed.
Oh, yeah? What, are you
marrying her or something?
I'll get her money.
No, no. It's OK, it's OK.
I'm a doctor.
I'm a doctor, it's OK.
No, please, please...
Please.
You must get this man
to hospital now. Right now!
- He must go straight away.
- No, no.
If you are a doctor,
you can help this guy.
This is the wound
of an operation.
Where? Where did he have this
operation? Which country?
You must get this man
to hospital.
- They won't go to hospital.
- No, no, no, no hospital.
Guo Yi is here?
Shit.
It's my first day. I was told
to collect my green overall.
- Which shift are you on?
- Which shift?
Come on. Either you're late
or you're really late.
You couldn't do the bins
in the kitchen, could you?
OK...
You see these blue tablets?
He must take two every
two hours. You understand?
He must take two blue tablets
every two hours.
You speak English?
- And Somali?
- A bit.
He says to say thank you.
God is great.
Tell him he must take two
blue tablets every two hours.
And one white tablet
every six hours.
It is very important that
you get this exactly right.
Ask him
which hospital they went to
to have the kidney removed.
He says they didn't go to a hospital.
Ask him where they did this.
In a room.
He had his kidney removed
in the hotel, yes?
How much did he get
for risking his life?
He is English now.
He swapped his insides
for a passport?
The man at the hotel said it would be
like taking out a tooth.
Can I get you something?
- I've been here one hour.
- An hour and a half.
There.
I will go
and collect my things.
Why won't you sit down?
- Okwe, where have you been?
- Africa.
I thought you weren't coming.
I would have got you the money
somehow.
The money?
Do you feel that?
Do you feel anything?
I counted. I've seen you
laugh three times.
Four.
You think I'm so innocent.
In my village,
they chew those leaves
to forget
how hard their lives are.
I use it to keep awake.
You know it makes you look...
You should keep away from me.
You lost your job.
Because of me,
you are in a sweatshop.
And now you are going again.
Be sure you make it
to New York.
I will make it to New York,
Okwe, thank you.
Best if you don't show up
until after five.
Most porters are gone by then.
Only ghosts left.
Showers are here. Water's
not too hot, but it runs.
Couch in my office
is pretty soft.
Oh, I forgot.
You don't sleep, do you?
My friend, welcome to my hotel.
Beautiful, isn't it?
And the other residents
are very... very quiet.
- It would only be until...
- Until the world improves.
Ca va?
Best truffles
I've ever seen in England.
Dug up fifteen hours ago
in Provence.
Came through
on the night train.
Shall we say £ ?
I'm in the wrong fucking hotel.
£ Senor Juan.
What do you say?
OK. £ .
But if I give you that price,
I need a favour.
There is a night porter.
African.
He came from you so I guess
he came through Amsterdam.
Yes. What about him?
He is some kind of doctor.
What kind of doctor?
I need to know
what there is to know.
Police! Police!
Can I help you, gentlemen?
We're looking for someone
called Senay Gelik.
- She might be working here.
- Do you see anybody here?
If you see her,
give us a call.
You have been here
for two days,
and already, because of you,
I'm in trouble.
Maybe I should call
lmmigration.
Should I call them?
You wouldn't do that.
I need a good reason.
What can you give me?
If they find out you've been
working, what will they do?
They will put you in prison.
And here,
they mix the men and women.
So,
every night you will be raped.
If you want to be
like a Western girl,
that's what happens
to Western girls.
If you want to go to jail,
fine.
If you can't give me
a good reason,
I will call the lmmigration.
I'm a good man, Senay.
I know where to draw the line.
I don't want
to take your virginity, Senay.
I just want you
to help me to relax.
You have
such a beautiful mouth, Senay.
Achtung! Achtung!
My ladies and gentlemen,
your coach awaits!
Bitte. Bitteschon.
But you must take your own
luggage to the coach.
I will help only those who
cannot carry their own bags.
Okwe, get up here.
- This man is a doctor.
- I'm OK, I'm OK.
She's OK. She only needs
to rest a minute.
He qualified in Lagos.
He worked for
the Nigerian government.
His name is
Dr Olusegun Olatokumbo Fadipe.
We must hurry
or we'll miss the coach.
In the end, I find out all
about everyone in this place.
Here, take a look at this.
French. It's a work of art.
Lebanese guys I use,
who are the best in London.
All you do
is give them a photograph.
I have no idea what you are
talking about, Senor Juan.
If you were just some African,
the deal would be simple.
You give me your kidney,
I give you a new identity.
I sell the kidney
for ten grand, so I'm happy.
The person who needs
the kidney gets cured.
So, he's happy.
The person who sold his kidney
gets to stay in this beautiful
country, so he's happy.
My whole business
is based on happiness.
But for you, Dr Olusegun
Olatokumbo Fadipe,
I've a better idea.
I do not want to get involved,
Senor Juan.
Each time you operate,
you get three thousand.
A passport for you,
and one for Senay.
Take her on honeymoon.
I do not want to get involved.
You could even
go back to Africa.
And no-one would know
who the fuck you are.
Your choice. No rush.
I just wanted to put a little
wasp in your head.
Unusual.
Chinese guy with no family.
Maybe he's from
the back of a truck.
I cut off his buttons
so his spirit can escape.
I'm sewing up his pockets
so he can't take his bad luck
with him to the spirit world.
If he's an atheist,
I'm ruining a suit
no-one will ever see.
If he's a Buddhist, I'm giving
him eternal happiness,
for the price
of a piece of thread.
I have found out
why the heart was at the room.
They are removing kidneys.
One of their patients
died at their hands.
Another I treated
for a staphylococcal infection.
You're treating people?
I hope you charge.
Did you hear what I said?
There is nothing so dangerous
as a virtuous man.
Okwe, if you're so concerned,
you should go to the police.
Get yourself deported.
You think if it were just for
deportation I would not do it?
I'm a wanted man, Guo Yi.
Wanted for what?
Okwe, you didn't know
people sold their organs?
- Not here.
- What do you mean, "here"?
Here in London,
you think it doesn't happen
because the Queen
doesn't approve?
I heard in London
it's ten grand for a kidney.
For that, people take risks.
If I had the courage,
I'd sell my kidney.
Just to get out of here.
Just to save my brain.
The problem
with always being on time
is that you can
always be tracked down.
What do you think of the girl?
She's my next customer.
Eight years old.
She's called Rima.
Her family
brought her over from Saudi,
hoping for a miracle.
If she doesn't get a new kidney
in the next few weeks,
she's going to die.
The doctor we use is no good.
If he fucks up again,
there'll be another heart
down the lavatory.
Okwe, you still there?
So, I'm an evil man, right?
But I'm trying
to save her life.
That's weird, huh?
Kind of thing
that keeps you awake at night.
Tonight,
London is colder than Moscow.
I heard it on the radio.
Okwe... it is a crazy idea.
But we really can do it.
You said you liked New York.
But if not New York,
then maybe Boston.
Or Los Angeles.
I'm going there, Okwe.
What do you think?
And Okwe,
you could go there, too.
Are you OK?
Senay, where are you?
What has happened?
I knocked
but you did not hear me.
Are you OK? What has happened?
The factory does not suit me.
My hands are too soft.
I cut my fingers.
So...
I have decided
to go to America.
For America you would need
a visa, Senay.
Or maybe a European passport.
- Keep away from Senor Juan!
- It's like taking out a tooth.
He's lying!
Because you are poor, you will
be gutted like an animal.
They will cut you here,
or they will cut you here!
They will leave you to rot.
One of the laundry girls
did it, and now she's free.
Others are dead, Senay.
So, they are free, too.
What would your God say?
My God does not speak to me
any more.
Don't break. Save money.
Keep New York in your head
and work hard.
You know what kind of work
I do?
Lunch!
Aargh!
Okwe, somebody in
the back room looking for you.
She look like a film star, boy.
Look, Okwe, I know for sure
that this coat costs £ .
- This dress...
- Tell me what has happened.
We can sell the coat for £ .
Senay, where did you get these?
I bit, Okwe.
At the factory.
He said he would report me
to lmmigration,
and he made me suck.
But today, I bit.
I bit.
I bit!
Senor Juan sometimes has rooms
in the hotel.
- No, Senay.
- Just for tonight.
No.
Through there is hot water
and a shower.
Hurry, Senay.
What is this place, Okwe?
It is a place
where you can stay for tonight.
So cold.
If anyone comes,
you are a friend of Guo Yi.
Tomorrow we will find you
somewhere to live.
So... it is in there.
I can hear it.
Your heart.
Hello. Room Service.
Buenos dias... Negro.
Come on. Come on.
She's nil by mouth
the whole day.
Please.
Sister.
Help me, brother.
Stop acting
like you've got a choice.
Please!
- Put on your clothes.
- Please, no!
You came here
in the back of a truck,
but you are going home
in chains!
They'll deliver you like meat!
The whole world is wrong,
except you, Okwe?
What?
You are going to cut me up,
and flush me away?
I really, really don't know
you at all, do I?
- This is Senay. A friend.
- I am not your friend.
- She has been out all night.
- I'd rather freeze to death,
than go into that building
again.
There are mornings
I feel the same.
- Come, Senay, it's cold.
- It is the house of the dead.
They are all dead.
Maybe this will help.
My cousin has a room,
in Chinatown.
I guess there's space for two.
You know, Okwe, good at chess
usually means bad at life.
You do realise that she's
in love with you, don't you?
I've been with her
twenty minutes, and I know it.
But then, I'm bad at chess.
There is something
I must tell you.
- This is your religion?
- I have no religion.
You have stopped
chewing the leaf.
I can see from your eyes.
Do you know, Okwe,
your eyes are quite pretty?
- You are not bad looking.
- Listen to me.
I come to this churchyard
often.
I come here to be alone,
and to think about my wife.
So now you see.
What do I see?
You should not see me any more.
Do you love her?
Do you love her?
There is a room
above a restaurant.
The lmmigration police
do not dare go into Chinatown.
Here is some money
for the rent I owe you.
There is more for the trouble
I have caused you.
- Okwe, do you love her?
- Love?
For you and I,
there is only survival.
It is time you woke up
from your stupid dream.
Yes?
Are you going on holiday
or something?
Senor Juan...
- Senor Juan...
- America, maybe?
Come on, you cleaned up
their shit so long.
Now, you can be one of them.
Who is it?
It's me. I got some paperwork.
OK. How old are you?
Twenty-two.
How old do you want to be?
Twenty-two.
Hey, come on, relax. I can
make you whatever you want.
You want to be
Spanish or Greek?
Italian.
- You need a new name.
- Isabella Encarico.
- You're sure that's Italian?
- She owns a cafe in New York.
OK, you are at New York
lmmigration. What's your name?
Isabella Fontanna Encarico.
- How old are you?
- Twenty-two.
- Where were you born?
- Napoli.
- Where in Napoli?
- Aranella.
Right.
The trick, Senay,
is to believe you are
the new person.
If you believe it inside, the
lmmigration will believe it.
Drink?
What are you afraid of?
Okwe's gone.
Got scared and go away.
Go to hell!
This is hell.
I'm helping you to get away.
Take off you robe.
Come on, come on.
Hey, hey, stop that!
Stop that!
I can't believe it.
I'm arguing
like you are my fucking wife.
Let me explain something.
Your robe now
is what the Americans
call a "deal breaker".
So...
No.
You are this close to New York
and you said no.
Wait.
I want the whole thing.
That's the deal.
Take it or leave it.
You do not see me.
You just do.
Take it or leave it.
So it wasn't so bad, huh?
Nothing to cry about.
I'm not crying.
If you'd told me
it was the first time,
I'd have cut a ribbon.
I can't believe
Okwe never fucked you.
You kind of love him, huh?
Women love men most
who don't love them back.
Well, you had a lucky escape.
You know why he ran away?
Because I found out
that in Africa,
he murdered his own wife.
You don't eat or drink
for hours, OK?
Doctor's orders.
Senay is here?
I will need a pill.
There is a pill you can take
the morning after.
You are a doctor.
At least you can get me a pill.
I won't allow you
to butcher her.
You won't allow?
I will operate on her myself.
- You'll do what?
- I will do it.
It is the only way I can be
sure she will not die.
In return, I want a passport.
A new identity.
Well, holy shit!
So you are human?
I will bring you our
photographs tomorrow morning.
Hi. I'm Juliette.
I'm a friend of Okwe's.
He said that you needed these.
So, he did not care enough
to bring them himself.
Oh, Okwe's an angel.
There. Never happened.
So... What did happen?
Before, I was a virgin.
Jesus!
Mohammed.
What a pair!
The virgin and the whore.
The doctor needs a good car.
Take it.
Last time you were lucky.
Black is black.
Wash these again, please.
Boil, boil, eh?
Hot, hot!
Jose!
So,
this is how you do it right?
There can be no guarantee
against E Coli.
Mmm!
Wonderful!
No, no, no, no.
Passports.
It's something I do right.
No parking.
Okwe wants me to wait here.
I gave her a sedative
an hour ago.
She's only in a deep sleep.
But now you are here,
I can administer
the anaesthetic.
Now I'm here?
You are going to be
my assistant, Senor Juan.
What the fuck is this?
I have noticed that if you do
not drink, your hands shake.
When you pass the scalpel,
I do not want you
to cut off my fingers.
When will they come to collect?
If you faint
during the operation,
I have half an hour before the
kidney begins to deteriorate.
They come to the laundry bay.
Back of the kitchen.
- You'd better start.
- Go and scrub your hands.
Yes. Professional!
It's decided.
It's fucking decided!
You and me
are going into business.
You know washing dishes?
You know,
when you forget on Friday
and come in Monday,
and there is a pan with sauce?
White... green... shit.
That... is...
Jesus!
Was I speaking English then?
What you say?
...don't understand it,
how the ice will help.
It'll make you last longer,
babe.
I don't want to last longer.
It's not even pay-day.
All right, make you harder.
Think what happens to water
when it freezes, eh?
There.
- Get a bucket.
- Bucket?
Come on!
You have removed kidneys before?
Many times.
In pathology.
What is pathology?
It means the patient
is already dead.
Did he tell you things
about me, Senay?
No.
Let me wipe your brow, doctor.
Juliette, put the ice
on the bed and put on the gown.
Take the bag.
Squeeze. Gently.
We must go and scrub up.
Cold tonight, huh?
On a night like this,
who would want so much ice?
You are Pylades.
Pylades was the boatman
who ferried the souls
to the land of the dead.
If you didn't put a coin
under the tongue
of your dead relative,
Pylades wouldn't take them
to Hades.
No matter how good
you had been in your life.
Knife.
- Jesus!
- You are not allowed to faint.
Pass me the ice.
- Is that it, then?
- No, I must sew him up.
Why?
Fetch me stitches.
Will you go and check
there is no-one else waiting?
Yeah.
Where's Senor Juan?
He's drunk.
How come I've never seen
you people before?
Because we are the people
you do not see.
We are the ones
who drive your cabs.
We clean your rooms,
and suck your cocks.
In one hour, call an ambulance.
Send them up to room .
Juliette?
- Thank you.
- Sssh! It's OK.
One hour, OK?
Handa? Handa, it's me, Senay.
You hear
how good my English is?
I'm coming to New York.
I'm coming to New York!
My hands are shaking.
So are mine. I don't have
a driver's licence.
It's dead.
It's the tunnel.
I must tell her
what time we land.
Senay, what Sneaky told you
was true.
He did not tell me anything.
I did not kill my wife myself,
but still it was my fault.
- I was a pathologist in Lagos.
- And now you are someone new.
An official was shot. I was
told to destroy the evidence.
I don't want to know.
When I refused,
my house was fire bombed.
My wife was still inside.
The police charged me
with her murder.
I had to run.
But my daughter stayed.
Valerie.
She's with my sister in Lagos.
How old is she?
Seven.
I must go to her.
Tell me about Lagos.
Do they have hotels
that need maids?
When you arrive at the airport,
you will see
a whole line of yellow cabs.
The car will take you
across a bridge.
When you cross the river, you
will see lights in the trees.
Policemen on white horses.
No.
I know it won't be like that.
Goodbye, Okwe.
Hold me.
You must go... Isabella.
Always we must hide.
This is the cafe
where my cousin works.
I love you.
I love you.
Hello?
Valerie?
Yes, it's me.
At last,
I'm coming home.
