MULATTO: Refers to a person

of mixed African and European ancestry

In Haiti, mulattos are generally seen

as part of the economic elite

Hold that for me.

And that.

Put your feet inside!

That would be too easy, man.

They should handle the trunk.

Handle this in the meantime.

Man...

Last night I had

a f*cked-up dream.

I could see myself

lying down on the belly

in my sleep,

and then...

I felt something

licking the back of my hand.

And since my eyes were closed,

I couldn't see the thing

licking me.

But I could feel it

breathing down my neck.

A heavy, warm breath.

And while I was trying

to open my eyes

I looked in some kind of mirror

in front of me...

Bro, I saw...

a big rat.

- A huge rat on my back.

- A rat?

As I was fighting

to take him off my back,

he held me still with his claws...

He did it to me, he did it...

What did he do?

He took me.

He penetrated me.

OK...

- Do you think I'm g*y?

- No...

It's just a dream, man.

I don't think...

Yeah, that's what I thought.

It's a lottery dream thing...

I was about to play the lucky numbers,

but didn't want to play and turn g*y.

Yeah, it makes sense.

How's your chick?

Playing hard to get. Apparently,

I'm not giving her enough attention.

- I should choose her over FIFA.

- Choose?

And I just bought

a very expensive queen size bed!

Manoushka dumped you?

No, man, I dumped her!

- Sure?

- Sure I'm sure! I'm the one who left!

And I liked that b*tch,

but she's always there, rambling.

In the end, I dipped!

She can f*ck off!

That's how it goes with chicks!

They're all the same!

The only one I'm taking care of,

is my mom.

She's not cheating on me.

No stress.

Yeah, your mom can't cheat on you.

My food and laundry are done,

it's neat.

She even watches

the soccer games with me.

It's your mom that made you

a Real Madrid Fan?

32 Spanish championships, 19 cups,

11 Champions League. Keep it easy, moron.

At 2:45 pm, Barcelona

will beat the sh*t out of you!

And don't tell me you're broke.

I know you!

Chief, today is my last day...

No, "last day" won't work.

Chief, despite all the respect a son has

for his dad, the son must fly free.

No, that won't do it.

Chief, my mom's sick.

She only has me...

Please!

- What's going on?

- He's biting the gag!

Well, put it back on!

He keeps licking my fingers!

- Please... Listen...

- Calm down.

Unknown caller

sh*t! m*therf*cker!

- What're you doing?

- He bit me.

What do you mean, he bit you?

What did you do?

So you bite people?

Hey! I'm talking to you.

What's going on, man?

- You k*lled him.

- Hey, don't say that.

It's nothing,

just a little blood.

Yo, are you dead?

We'll let you go.

Don't do that, man.

Come on, we'll let you go.

The son of a senator...

The son of a f*cking senator!

Don't say that.

The guy can't just die...

Arent you a doctor...

Shut up!

You're not answering?

Go on, answer.

- Get in the car.

- Where are we going?

You want them

to pick you up here?

f*ck that trunk.

Wait...

We kidnapped your husband,

you got 12 hours to get $300,000.

$300,000?

US dollars! Banks opens at 8:30.

I'll call you back at 9, make me happy.

Is there a problem, baby?

Ti Ben has been kidnapped.

Senator Perralt says

he'll relaunch the economy

by creating jobs.

The real question is: how?

Blacks are in power to get rich.

The mulatto has created jobs.

I'll vote for Perralt.

Philippe Vorbe,

what do you think?

If Lionel Messi is truly the world's best

player, he'll have 2 things to prove.

Don't listen to these

fake white, stinky bourgeois.

They don't know our pain.

What relaunch?

They get rich off the poor.

Are the UN, cholera and the earthquake

the mulatto's fault?

We can't continue throwing

our problems at each other.

The issue isn't just

a black and mulatto problem.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,

here are the headlines.

Haiti's electoral campaign

will end today at midnight.

The polls point to...

Chloe, don't you say goodbye?

Bye, honey.

...senator and businessman

Benjamin Perralt, UPF leader...

Sorry for your loss, Audrey.

- Is he dead?

- Who?

Benjamin!

You said:

"Sorry for your loss."

I meant for your mother.

What do you mean?

Isn't she dead?

Yes, but she was cremated

2 months ago.

Benjamin,

your son has been kidnapped.

What?

They called me this morning.

What is it, honey?

Benjamin?

Hello?

- How much?

- $300,000.

Watch out!

f*ck you, pig!

- Pig?

- Not you, boss.

Some guy almost ran into us.

It's 7 AM. Where are you?

It's back-to-school time,

there's a lot of traffic...

I don't want to hear your life story.

- What time were you to arrive?

- 6:30.

- What time?

- 6:30, boss, you're right.

Doc, when I call back,

make me happy.

Everything's under control.

Boss? Boss?

What should we do?

Why can't we just delete the guy?

- Delete?

- Yeah.

We bury him.

No body, no crime.

And bury the 2 cops

that delivered him?

Let's say

he choked to death in the trunk.

He swallowed his tongue

and died.

We're not responsible.

It happens all the time.

Look, if we bring the senator's

son's body, we're dead!

The dude you just k*lled

is worth $300,000.

- US dollars?

- US dollars!

Damn!

You're right.

He could die in the trunk

if we had an accident.

- What accident?

- With a wall.

- A wall?

- We just need a wall.

We crash into a wall, it's an accident,

the guy's dead, we're not responsible!

Never!

This is so f*cked up, man!

You think I smoke my pubes?

- You hear me?

- Yeah.

OK, let's go!

It has to look real.

Hold it!

Honey, I need you

Yo! You ready or what?

Yeah! Come on! More! More!

Let's go! Let's go!

What are you doing, man?

This sh*t's crazy!

What's wrong?

How can I crash

my a*s into a wall?

What if the electric cables fall,

set the car on fire, and I explode!?

- How will you explode?

- It's high-voltage, I'm not Electro!

Should I do it?

Yes, do your thing.

You'd laugh at me.

I can't drive.

Get in with me!

Jeez...

Come on, get in!

Get in!

It's 8 am on Mistic FM.

National anthem playing

Come on, let's go!

Brake! Brake!

How... is it?

The guy's running away!

Get out!

Help! Help!

Get up!

Move aside!

Come back here, girl!

Darlne! I'll k*ll you!

as*h*le!

Is there a path here?

Isn't that Manoushka's boyfriend?

Get inside! Get inside!

It's me!

We lost him.

Calm down, man.

The guy dies, you panic;

he's alive, you panic! Calm down, bro!

What's wrong with you, man?

Hey, you knocked over

the garbage can.

Sorry.

Calm down, bro.

Haitian Bank of Credit

- Hey! What the f*ck?

- Sorry!

You running away with the country's

money? f*ck you, whitey!

Whitey, whitey...

I got 5 million gourdes,

that's all I could withdraw.

How much money is that?

Actually, I got 4.8 million gourdes.

That's 72,000 US dollars.

My account, Ti Ben's account,

everything is gone.

- What's the exchange rate?

- Today's rate! Who cares?

See the time? They said 9.

Calm down, baby.

Everyone's late in this country.

- Did you do your withdrawal?

- At the Bank. Call you back.

What? No, wait, Eddy! Hello?

f*cking sh*t!

r*pe! r*pe! Help!

- Move!

- Let me through!

- m*therf*cker!

- Sorry!

- Help!

- I just want to pass!

Don't touch me! Help!

Don't touch! r*pe!

I'm not touching you.

Who did your hair?

Careful, the blade is sharp...

- Move!

- Oh, sh*t!

f*ck you!

- Baby?

- I've been calling you!

So, your bank?

It's complicated,

I did everything I could.

Want me to sign a paper?

We'll reimburse you, I promise.

Don't say that.

The bank refused the withdrawal.

It's your money!

You're not taking a loan.

It's on a business account,

I need 2 signatures: mine

and my associate or his lawyer.

- Where's your associate?

- Away with his girl.

- And the lawyer?

- The lawyer's his girl.

What's this bullshit? You said yes!

What do I do now?

You don't trust me.

I don't like this.

What do you mean? I convinced

his father to let you negotiate!

There are unexpected events. I reduced

the ransom by 50%. Stay positive.

Call Ti Ben's dad.

Am I f*cking Ti Ben's dad?

Baby, calm down!

We're looking for money.

The dad's here. Why not call him?

He's a senator, isn't he?

Sorry, Mr. Eddy...

Yes, sweetheart.

Port-au-Prince Police Sation

sh*t! Did a car run into you?

- A truck.

- A dump truck?

They need to fix the trunk.

There's a guy sleeping.

In this heat?

Was he in the car with you?

How much, Ti Will?

The car's a wreck, whitey.

Can't you hear that sound?

The engine's dead.

Hey, what are you doing?

$400.

$400?

Guys, the car's broken.

The car's taken a lot!

Look at the suspension.

Whitey's going easy on you.

This is at least 6 to 700!

Whitey?

Let me tell you...

We don't have that much money.

Can't we just open

that part in the front?

Look.

About this size, like me.

See what I mean?

So we can put something inside.

- You don't need to open the whole trunk?

- No.

You need about 7 to 11 inches

to free the front side.

Exactly.

I see what you want to do.

$400.

Whitey, what's with the $400?

Whitey, let me put you at ease.

We have $50 on us.

$50?

You really are a Madrid fan.

This guy is nuts!

Boys, be serious!

Whitey, talk to me.

What can you do for $50?

$50?

I can change the oil.

Beretta 9mm, semi-automatic,

15 b*ll*ts in the mag, brand-new. $400.

Lucky dream numbers

Rat dreams: 29.90.26

$200. Need a receipt?

Come on, man.

You know it's brand-new!

Do you want the receipt?

250?

Nope.

Boss?

What the f*ck is going on?

Boss, we're close.

Close to your mom's p*ssy?

They've been waiting since 6:30!

I spent all day

trying to find you!

f*ck you guys!

Where are you?

- We had an accident.

- What?

An accident.

- An accident?

- A big one, with a pick-up.

Jeez, what the hell is he saying?

The pick-up driver is injured,

I can put him on the phone.

- A spray?

- No way.

I'll put him on.

Speak to him.

Say you ran into us.

Both cars are wrecked.

The trunk is flat.

Speak with him.

He's laughing.

You're f*cking with me?

I'll send someone to f*ck with you!

No worries, I'll send a troubleshooter.

Boss?

- Kami, OK?

- Fine.

- Waiting for the game?

- You'll lose 3-0.

Yeah, sure!

- You believe in your Messi!

- You already bet?

No, not yet.

I'm doing a manicure.

- You're making beautiful hands.

- Yeah.

Let me bother you for a sec.

Don't ask too much,

I don't wanna miss the game.

You remember

that little black Honda?

Very well. Timothy 6:10.

"The love of money is

the root of all kinds of evil."

Remember the young guys too?

- The rastas.

- Yeah.

So, what's the situation?

I want you to find them.

Total discretion.

- Boss, don't say that.

- I know you.

Bring the package back intact.

And then...

Zero tolerance!

Everything is under control!

I called the bank.

Of course they have no cash.

The only thing that works here

are tontines.

Put it here, Mlanie.

Give me your bag.

20...

- Here, honey.

- 60...

And 18...

With your 72,

that makes 150 thousand.

I have someone

to take the ransom.

No, Benjamin,

Eddy is already handling it.

He negotiated it down

to 150 thousand.

He's already handled 2 kidnappings.

They went well.

I trust him.

Eddy Rousseau?

Eddy Chevreau. Ti Ben's cousin.

- Roger's son?

- He doesn't have a son.

Then it's Bernard's son.

Bernard never dated girls.

Bernard is g*y?

But he used to be married to...

- What's her name?

- Who cares?

We don't know Eddy.

I let you negotiate.

But I need to ensure the money is safe.

I have a friend in the police.

They said

we mustn't call the cops.

Ti Ben's life will be in danger.

I'll give that money to Eddy...

Benjamin!

Audrey, listen...

I know I wasn't

always there for you guys,

that I wasn't a good father...

But with my contacts,

it will be much safer.

Until now, we did well without you.

You know what?

I'll reimburse you once it's done.

Bye, Muriel.

Bye, Audrey.

Everything will be fine, Benjamin.

You destroyed a car, you lied,

you gambled with my life,

now I can't listen to music?

f*ck off!

- Lower the window.

- Boss says not to, on a mission.

- You on a mission?

- Yes!

You screwed up the mission!

Don't you understand?

It's done.

We don't have to stay together.

Just drop me home!

I don't care.

I'm just here to protect you!

You k*lled the guy!

You're protecting me?!

You screwed up my last mission!

I helped you make money!

You ruined my life,

ruined everything!

It was the last time,

I'm done with this sh*t!

Man, drop me off!

- What the f*ck?

- Why did you stop?

Don't you see?

We'll just switch them.

Honey, come take a picture.

- Switch them?

- Yes!

How do we switch them?

What if he tells them the truth?

Look, we just need the girl

to keep pressuring him!

OK?

- She's pregnant.

- We don't take her.

But we'll find a way

to put pressure on him. Well?

I like that one.

Careful with that bag.

- It's gifts for the family.

- OK!

Put the little bag at the front,

for the baby.

Patrick, he moved

when I said it!

You didn't take Rihanna's cage.

I'm dealing with these first.

- Can you just do it?

- I can't do 2 things at once.

Ask for Viagra,

ask for Sapatann!

Rihanna won't run away.

Put her in the car right now.

Patrick, take Rihanna!

Honey, go in the house, please.

Go inside!

Get in the car!

- Protect Rihanna!

- Shut up!

Put the damn dog down!

Open the door!

Open it!

Open!

- Let's go!

- Where?

Back up! Back up!

Faster!

Rihanna!

Come on, man, drive!

Drive!

Come on!

Stop, stop!

Why? Don't stop!

- Stop or drive?

- Stop!

- We forgot the senator's son.

- Go on.

Can you get Rihanna?

Silence! Heads down!

Give me your phones!

Hurry up, man!

You too!

Your phone!

- Poor Rihanna...

- Head down!

- You don't care about Rihanna...

- Silence!

This car has AC.

Reflex.

- Did you bring Rihanna?

- Who?!

When I say shut up, shut up! OK?

Yes!

Reflex.

- Maestro, you ready for 4 PM?

- Yes.

- At exactly 4.

- 4 on the dot.

Good, I'll call you back.

Boss, wait.

- We got a small problem.

- Problem?

Well...

Nothing major...

How should I say this?

We couldn't find 150 thousand.

Hello?

Hello? f*ck...

Men who can't get hard,

men who can't stand up,

impotent men, ask for Erics.

Ask for Viagra, ask for Sapatann...

If you'd listened to me

when I told you

to take Rihanna...

- I know, but...

- Don't talk to me!

Gentlemen, what exactly

are you doing here?

Is this a kidnapping?

Yes.

It won't work, can't you see?

I'm pregnant.

I'll level with you:

I'm in my 9th month.

I'm giving birth

in Fort Lauderdale.

A relative will help us board

the 4:25 PM flight. I can't miss it.

- It's complicated...

- Enough.

Indeed,

it's a very complicated pregnancy,

It's my first child, see?

So, I won't sleep in a f*cking ghetto,

waiting for negotiations.

Just get me to the airport

and I'll pay the ransom myself.

How much should I give you?

Just a moment...

It'll be OK, honey.

I said, not the girl.

Not my fault.

She locked herself in the car.

OK, here's the plan:

We'll just drop her at the airport.

But they'll pay for the ride.

I know you have debts too.

With my mom's medicine,

I have around 5 of debts.

So I think 20 should cover everything.

$20,000.

$20,000?

What's this sh*t?

Why don't you answer the phone?

- I'm busy working for you.

- You can answer my calls.

How's Ti Ben?

I have the $150,000.

- $150,000?

- What did he say?

- How is he?

- It's not that easy!

You can't just ask

to speak to him.

You ask to speak to Ti Ben

before you hand over the money!

Baby, let me handle this.

How could I screw this up?

You stress me out!

I haven't slept since the kidnapping.

I feel you don't appreciate my efforts!

Calm down, I trust you!

Look, get me out of this

and save your husband.

I trust you, Eddy!

Trust, honey?

I need to feel it.

Sorry, I trust you.

Wait...

No, no, no!

It's a little weird, right now.

- Really?

- Yes!

Look, honey.

Go back home.

Get some rest.

Let me handle this.

Everything will be fine.

Don't you want to count it?

I trust you.

1-0 for Barcelona!

What did I tell you?

We caught 'em cold!

Prepare the cash.

12 missed calls

- Why turn it on?

- She can't stop calling me.

I thought you dumped her.

Are you her dog?

f*ck you!

Don't meddle in my business.

Rat dreams mean

a girl is f*cking behind your back.

What the f*ck?

Say that again.

- Hey, stop!

- Drive.

I said, stop the car!

Manoushka f*ck behind my back?

Do you know her?

- I don't feel well.

- Breathe.

Relax, man. I said something,

but you chose to hear what you wanted

and distorted what I said.

- Sir, I...

- Shut up.

- It's not...

- They said, shut up.

They agreed we pay

to bring us to the airport.

- Where's the money?

- I have 1,500 dollars.

We said no! I can give you

1,500 dollars if I want, OK?

Must he always say stupid things?

- Travelling without cash?

- We have a credit card!

No cash? Stay in Haiti!

Please drive.

She's insulting us, man.

- Ma'am, what's your name?

- Laura.

OK, Laura, here's what we'll do.

Take what you want, it's your money,

but give us $5,000.

- 5,000 is too much?

- It's fine.

- We'll give it to them.

- To these crooks?

- Who's a crook?!

- Calm down.

- 2,500 tops.

- Let her out!

- I won't give birth here!

- Why not?

- It's this dual citizenship thing.

- Don't get involved.

They could have kids here

and send 'em abroad to study!

Did I ask advice for my child?

I won't risk Haitian doctors.

We can do it here...

Can't you decide by yourself?

Our Montreal vacation ended up here!

My grandma was sick,

You can't drag that up.

She's 96. Every year, she says

she's dying, but never does.

Should I get sick

to be taken on vacation?

- I care about my family.

- It's an orphanage!

You're lucky not to be an orphan.

But all 27 orphans are my family.

They were all at the wedding.

Your dad wasn't!

Don't speak about my father!

You're so cheap!

You'd rather go play dominoes

with your fake brothers.

Don't you want to travel?

Make f*cking contacts?!

With my contacts,

I got you a passport in 2 days!

sh*t! sh*t!

I can't handle your bullshit anymore!

I patiently try to understand,

you don't care!

$4,000 minimum!

I mean it!

Boss, please understand...

- I'm talking.

- Sorry. Go on.

How much did she say I wanted?

- 300.

- 300 what?

- 300,000 US dollars.

- Right.

How much are you bringing?

- 100.

- 100 what?

100,000 US dollars.

Why, after I give you

a 50% discount

on $300,000, you still tell me:

Oh, there's a problem,

I only have 100"?

Think that's fair?

It's short notice.

All the accounts are empty.

- Boss, someone's asking for you.

- I'm taking a sh*t!

Boss...

The family want

to speak to Ti Ben.

Why did they ask?

Why?

Yes, why?

Usually that's how it goes.

They need a guarantee.

What if I don't give a guarantee?

Well, there's not a lot we can do.

Then, what are we talking about?

Hurry up and bring the money.

The boys will be

in a black 4-Runner

with tinted glass at 4:00.

At 4:01,

they'll leave.

Hello, Daddy.

I didn't hear from you.

I hope you already

put on your condom.

I'm waiting for you.

I love you, my love.

This is good stuff! Good stuff!

Hey, baby, how are you?

I'm on my way to Punta Cana!

Tonight I'm going to f*ck you

in a 5-star hotel!

I love you so much, baby!

Cops! Cops!

Pat, stop!

Buckle up.

Easy.

Oh! Delta, look

who's paying us a visit.

- What's up?

- Officer.

Ma'am, a girl, right?

What did you bring to daddy?

- Nothing, officer.

- Don't do that. I was waiting for you.

Chief, you know things are slow.

Slow? OK, show me

your license and registration.

We're in a hurry.

Lower the back windows.

Any weapons?

- No way.

- No, can we go now, sir?

- Are they with you?

- He's just dropping us off.

Am I talking to you?

- You didn't answer.

- I have a flight at 4:25.

Shut up!

Shut up, OK?

I wasn't speaking to you!

Pal, your vehicle

is a bit suspicious.

You can fix it.

Officer, just tell me

how can I fix this.

You're a grown man. Need a picture?

Serve me so I protect you.

Give him $3 so he goes away.

What? Bribe me? $3?

You're talking to an officer, hon.

Everybody out! Park over here.

Delta!

Let's go! Everybody move!

Keep going!

Pat, drive! Dri...

Not now.

Pull over!

Pull over.

Delta!

Park there!

Stop!

Come on, everybody out!

Open the trunk and come here!

Take your responsibility

as a father!

You expect me

to give birth in Haiti?

Is this a punishment?

You're weak! Useless!

Doc, what should we do?

Lima to Juliet, I'm dealing

with a 10-37, need back-up.

Have some ba*ls for once.

Patrick, I'll divorce you

if you don't drive!

I can sh**t him.

Get out!

Get out.

You, stay here.

Driver, open the trunk.

Faster! Come on!

It's not open yet!

Just open it.

Oh, what's that?

Drive!

He's wrecking the car,

it's not paid for!

Let's go!

He wants to a make boxer tanga...

Hi guys.

All the money is there.

Are you going to count it?

No.

So I can leave?

I'm heading to Punta Cana,

the border is closing soon.

Can I go?

Yes.

Thank you guys.

Senator Perralt,

make yourself comfortable

Do what you want!

Senator Perralt, the country is yours!

The Perralt they don't want to see

It's him they will see

The President they don't want to see

It's him they will see

Perralt works for the people,

he thinks about us in the ghetto.

They don't want him to be President,

so they've kidnapped his son!

We'll kick their asses!

f*ck 'em up! Burn the country!

Riots have erupted

after the presidential candidate

and UPF leader, Benjamin Perralt,

made a surprising announcement.

The businessman declared

he'd ended his campaign prematurely.

He was forced to confess to supporters

that his son, Benjamin Perralt Jr.

had been kidnapped.

At the moment, several thousands

of rioters are showing him support.

2 days from the 2nd round of elections,

some are talking of electoral fraud.

Armed men from poorer neighborhoods

are sending hostile signals

to the CEP electoral council.

Several opposing political parties'

offices have been vandalized.

No thieves in the ghetto!

They're in the government!

The police issued an orange alert

on the capital,

in agreement with the government,

the CEP, and UN Forces.

The national police

decrees a curfew

starting at 6 PM.

The electoral campaign

is officially shortened by 6 hours.

sh*t, Patrick, what're you doing?

f*ck! Find a shortcut.

- We won't make it. Laura get out.

- All roads lead to the airport.

Honey, get us out of here!

This car isn't safe anymore!

We're almost there! Faster!

No, stop!

- I said, stop!

- Turn here!

f*ck, there he is!

- Where?

- Why stop the car?

- Who is this guy?

- Drive!

- Why do you care?!

- Go!

f*ck, f*ck, Patrick!

- What are you doing?

- Down!

Patrick, turn right!

f*ck you, as*h*le!

Why stop the car

in the middle of the road?

Stop whining like a b*tch!

f*ck you!

See? You don't listen.

Stop a motorcycle cab for her.

Ma'am, can you get out now?

- Why should she?

- Shut up!

- Why?

- Get her out.

- Why must she?

- I said, shut up!

What's wrong?

I have health issues.

Take the $1,500!

- Forget the money.

- Get out!

- I could lose the baby. Please!

- Let him in.

- Youre no longer safe with us.

- No, please...

- I must get my flight!

- We just need Patrick.

- Why Patrick?

- Don't worry about him.

Just get out!

I won't leave you!

- Why?

- I've been asking you for ages!

You're f*ck' mad, man!

- Baby, are you OK?

- What's wrong?

- Honey, are you OK?

- What's wrong with her?

- What is it?!

- Asthma! She's not used to this!

Help her breathe.

Honey, breathe...

Get out!

Calm down!

Boss, please... Just let me

call someone to pick her up.

I can't leave her here by herself.

Please!

Hurry up, then!

Please!

It'll be OK,

but you have to go, baby.

Please...

- Hurry.

- Thanks!

Call your father.

No, Patrick...

Please, honey...

If I call Philippe,

he'll get into my head with his bullshit.

Why me?

Oh, why us?

Tell me why life

is taking us apart...

OK, get out!

I'm not leaving him!

It's OK, I'll handle it.

Lolo, stop it!

You have to go!

Call your dad, please!

I kept telling you:

"Buy the tickets."

No, you were waiting for a discount!

Now look at you!

You'll pay double!

- Hello, Eddy?

- Boss!

There are demonstrations.

You're going to be late.

No, it's settled!

I gave the cash to your guys.

I'm on my way back now.

- What time is it?

- Quarter to 4.

I'm early

because I'm in a hurry.

Your guys were punctual.

I appreciate that.

You gave it to my men?

Yes, I gave it to the th*gs.

th*gs?

What were their names?

I didn't have time.

I parked, saw the black 4-Runner,

and gave them the case.

We didnt talk much.

Boss?

So, when can he go home?

Home?

I need to give the family

a guarantee.

Shut the f*ck up!

Know what?

Go get the money back now!

I did the handover!

I said "a 4-Runner

with tinted glass"!

Tinted!

You never said that!

- I didn't?

- Oh? No!

Do you still live at your cousin's?

Its your sister or your cousin?

If the money isn't there when I call you,

I'll k*ll you myself. f*ck you!

The person you are calling

is not answering. Please call back later.

Your father's not answering.

Who's that?

I don't know.

You don't know Richard?

Hey, honey.

Are you at the airport?

Honey?

Hello, Pat?

You're still with that b*tch!

How can you? I'm pregnant.

We went to see a shrink.

Spent money on therapy.

You swore you weren't with her,

Now she's calling you.

Say something!

b*stard!

How can you do that?

Calm down!

Piece of sh*t!

- Calm down!

- You deaf?

Don't aim at my baby.

as*h*le!

- Whos the as*h*le?

- Zoe, don't aim at her belly.

At my baby?

- Who do you think you are?

- I said, calm down!

He's a psycho idiot

who points a g*n at me.

- Are you crazy?

- Shut up, b*tch!

Your girlfriend is the b*tch!

Repeat that.

Let's see if he got ba*ls!

- Wanna see if I got ba*ls?

- f*gg*t!

Zoe...

Look at me, buddy.

Look at me.

Put the g*n down. Put it down.

Look at your buddy.

Put the g*n down. Put it down.

Calm down, man.

He's crazy?

He's not well in the head?

Someone cast a spell on him?

Deal with him!

You need me.

Leave her alone.

It's me. Me you want!

Calm down!

Nobody's going to sh**t anyone!

Let me drive her to the airport!

What?!

- My water broke!

- I'm talking.

You kidnapped me,

I said nothing.

I remained calm.

OK, it's your business.

It's life, everyone does their thing.

I don't judge you.

I get it, you kidnap people,

but have some manners!

Go to the airport!

I won't give birth here!

I'm gonna give birth!

Zoe, take the wheel!

You OK?

Final call to Miami!

I won't give birth here!

My kid WON'T BE HAITIAN!

Spread your legs,

we have no choice.

We'll never get to the hospital.

- You're dilated 5 inches.

- 5 inches!

I spent 3 years at medical school.

Let yourself go.

- Let yourself go!

- I'm gonna puke!

Are there any matches?

Spit on one and put it behind her ear

so she doesn't puke.

Let go of my hair. Relax!

- How can I? I'm gonna poop!

- It's OK!

Tie her toe so she don't sh*t.

Ma'am Laura...

- Childbirth is hard.

- She won't relax.

Calm down! Let yourself go!

Relax? Is the pain in your a*s?!

Patriiiick!

What a huge p*ssy!

Dread? Rasta?

Is this your child?

I can't see the head.

Start pushing. Push!

f*ck you, Patrick! You're useless!

Stop filming my p*ssy!

Push! Push! Push!

I'm pushing, I'm pushing!

Oh, my Goooooood!

If it was my son, I would have set

the country on fire.

The streets are in your hands,

the people are with you, my friend.

I know, Senator,

but we don't burn, we build.

You know what I mean.

Don't joke, you are very popular.

If you're looking for good friends,

you know where to find them.

Thank you.

First lady...

- Are you OK, honey?

- As best as I can.

What's this mess? Who are

all these people coming into my house?

We agreed to only invite family.

They're here to show support.

Screw their support!

Can't you see?

Nothing works in this country.

I can't reach Eddy.

What?

I gave him the money.

I can't reach him.

- You gave him all of it?

- Of course!

You silly woman!

President...

I wanted to say goodbye.

- All the best.

- Thank you, mayoress.

I said my guy could deliver.

Is Eddy your lover?

There are limits!

You didn't ask me

before calling the police.

- I didn't call them.

- You didn't call the media?

I called a friend, the Inspector General.

He knows the family, he knows Ti Ben.

He'll handle it.

In the sh*t you put us,

he's the only one who can!

But I need results. Do you have news

from your Inspector Gadget?

- He's here.

- What's he doing here?

Wait.

Fritz? Captain!

f*ck.

Why?

Why am I so dumb?

Let's go, push!

Push with me, push!

- Push!

- Push!

Push! Let's go!

Messi never won

a world cup with Argentina!

But he still won 5 Golden ba*ls!

Messi dribbles.

Wonderful dribble by Messi.

Marcelo didn't see this coming...

Messi could pass it to the right,

but he keeps it. Here he goes...

He dribbles to a third player.

Messi is on fire!

What a wonderful player.

He's still going!

Move over, Christiano!

You're already wounded!

Messi is on the run!

No-one can stop him!

Can he go all the way?

Messi the legend!

He can sh**t.

He doesn't sh**t...

He dribbles, he shoots and...

GOOOOOAAAALL!!!

We must do something.

What's the plan?

They told you not to call the police

or they would k*ll Ti Ben.

Pal, did I say I was done?

Sorry, boss.

Sorry for what?

Now, go away, idiot!

Fritz, give us solutions.

They know you're a woman,

they put pressure on you.

When the senator called me,

it was too late, you already paid.

Too late?

Yes, too late. This guy you gave

the money to, what's his name?

Eddy.

You don't know

what he did with it.

Well, he's a friend, I trust him.

It's a serious situation! You can't leave

so much money with anyone.

Who cares about the money!

$150,000 is a nice sum!

I don't give a sh*t.

I want my husband back.

Needs more than your fine eyes.

Are you kidding me?

People don't think about it,

but we lack resources.

An investigator only earns $350!

Our vehicles are in bad shape.

We struggle to fill our tanks.

Congressmen get all the gas coupons.

- Why'd you call him?

- OK, Fritz.

- He's useless!

- Let me...

He's not helping her

to get her husband back.

We know the difficulties,

but now we need solutions.

Benjamin, what can I tell you?

The police is like a beautiful woman.

Take care of her

or she'll cheat on you. Excuse me.

Kami, I've been calling you forever!

I need back-up.

- There's only 2 targets.

- 3. We need to renegotiate.

Same price!

There are 2, not 3!

- What about the pregnant woman?

- What pregnant woman?!

Hello, Kami?

May heaven send me

12 spoons of sh*t!

If you don't like Messi,

you can go to hell!

Bunch of losers!

f*ck all you b*tches!

What a fine baby.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Thank you.

That's right! Messi!

The baby will be called Messi!

- Give me my money!

- The game isn't over.

Oh, what happened...?

Barcelona won,

she gave birth to Messi!

Right in their pussies!

Jesus!

Thank you so much!

Team spirit!

Hey, pal! Respect!

Got something

to keep the baby warm?

Yes, I'll find that!

Zoe...

Messi is in the house!

See what you did?

- What happened?

- The man's bleeding!

- Why did you sh**t?

- Why did you run?

- You shot him?

- The senator's son resurrected!

- Give me your belt! Get in!

- Would you let a dead guy touch you?

Anyway, he ran.

He's neutralized!

If he runs again, I'll sh**t him again!

- Sure, he'll run like that!

- These guys are smart!

Help me get him up!

Patrick, a little effort.

I'm dying, honey!

- Take us to a hospital!

- Shut up!

He's bleeding!

Take us to a hospital!

- I'm dying. I don't feel so good.

- You won't die.

You gotta take him to the hospital!

Relax, man, calm down!

Patrick, stay with me.

Patrick, can you hear me?

Pat, blink if you can hear me.

Pat, blink if you can hear me.

Patrick, honey, no, no.

Calm down. It's not serious.

Help get him up!

Calm down!

It's a superficial wound. Don't worry.

Step away from Patrick!

- Ma'am Laura...

- f*ck that!

f*ck you!

Put the f*cking g*n down!

- Lolo?

- It's OK, honey.

Get your sh*t out of the trunk.

Mom's here, don't worry.

Ah! f*ck, man!

My phone was in there!

- I'm with you, President.

- Thank you, brother.

Excellency!

Gary! Did you greet the President?

You should go.

- This man works to serve the country!

- Attorney Romain...

This kid studied politics in France.

- Salute your president.

- Hello.

This is a serious, honest citizen!

A professor who cares for everyone.

He can help us out,

and those th*gs kidnapped his son.

They say this country needs a model.

Here he is! Here's another!

Captain Fritz, a man of power!

Pass to the right and goal!

Gary, you need to join the UPF!

I leave the kid to you.

President, this is your SON!

Gary, come to your DAD!

OK, OK, Attorney.

Whats going on?

Whats so funny?

- What's this BS?

- Calm down Audrey.

Calm down?

You risked his life.

Don't say that, honey.

He played us!

You're doing your political campaign

in my house.

He's doing his political campaign

in our house!

And no-one cares!

My husband! My love!

Your son was kidnapped.

No-one gives a sh*t!

No-one!

You don't give a sh*t!

Get the f*ck out! Get out!

Get the f*ck out!

Get out!

Get the f*ck out! Get out!

This isn't a funeral!

Oh, sh*t!

Eddy!

Sorry. Sorry, Eddy.

Sorry! Where is he?

Where is he?

We're talking to you!

Where's my husband?

Speak! Where's the money?

Where's Ti Ben?

- Give me my son back!

- Calm down Benjamin!

Where is Ti Ben? Where is he?

Where's Ti Ben?

Where is he? Where?

Talk to me!

Did you see him?

Oh, my god. Why?

Oh, my god. Why?

Why? Oh, my god.

Bring some water!

We're 2 days from the elections.

Tonight, a curfew ends the campaign,

6 hours before

the constitutional closing.

The police decided

to protect the population,

following a candidate's son

being kidnapped.

This situation has created

a lot of turmoil.

The question today is: Will Haitians

be allowed to vote on Sunday?

We could sell it for $2,500.

- With the trunk destroyed?

- It's fine, the engine's brand-new!

What do you wanna do?

- I can't leave. What about my mom?

- You ain't the only one with a family!

- My mom's sick!

- The situation is really bad right now.

You gotta choose!

Inspector General,

why this controversial curfew?

The campaign could have gone

to 11.59 PM, as planned.

No. Security first.

It was dangerous.

They vandalized police stations,

armed men attacked people...

Wait, Inspector, who are these people

you are referring to?

A president's son was kidnapped.

- A presidential candidate, you mean?

- Yes. Protesters were in the streets.

Other political supporters attacked them.

So, to protect them,

your curfew affected the elections.

Isn't this problematic?

Were you out there?

You would have seen

how serious it was.

The orange alert is no joke.

This curfew was put in place

with the approval

of the government,

the CEP, and the UN.

And this is not a measure

to be taken lightly.

If anyone goes out tonight,

they'll be for it.

Dude, beware of him.

Hypertension can k*ll in seconds.

- Respect, Flash.

- We'll handle this, thanks.

No worries. Light it up.

Look how they managed to

lock down a country. It sucks!

sh*t! We don't have g*ns!

Haiti needs elections

and it needs it now.

Sunday, every candidate,

the CEP,

the Haitian people

must take up the challenge.

The electoral process

and democracy must go on.

So, even after declarations

about the CEP,

11 polling stations destroyed,

several ballot boxes set on fire,

the verification

of electoral cards stopped,

the campaign not even over,

are the elections

still possible on Sunday?

I'm sorry,

but the campaign ended 4 hours...

6 hours.

6 hours before the official time.

No big deal.

I disagree. If it's over,

it must be for everyone.

- I'd like to add...

- Just a moment.

Could you elaborate?

This candidate

is addressing the population.

- This is a campaign...

- He's not here as a candidate.

- He's a citizen.

- Please...

I'd like to hear

Senator Perralt's reaction.

But first, I want to show you

a video from social media.

- Give me back my son!

- Calm down.

- Give me my son back!

- Calm down!

Where is Ti Ben?

It's radical but effective.

Almost 1 million views on YouTube.

600 thousand likes on Facebook

and over 200,000 tweets

with hashtag #VOTEFORDAD.

With this viral video,

the senator is ahead

in every poll on social media.

Senator Perralt, are you for or against

the end of this campaign?

First, I must apologize

to the people.

It isn't the image

I want for our country.

I'm not for or against,

but I am against insecurity.

I'm against violence.

If the police,

despite all the obstacles they face,

decides, in accordance

with other State institutions,

to end the campaign

due to the troubles,

then, as a citizen,

I can only cooperate...

Today...

they took my son to make me afraid

so I can't share my vision for Haiti.

The time has come

for us to stop being afraid.

We're afraid to go

to work, to school,

afraid to defend our rights,

to live in our own country.

But they've given us more courage.

And with courage,

you can fight fear...

There'll always be real men

and women in this country

who dream, who love Haiti,

who will keep on fighting.

This morning, my daughter-in-law

collected $150,000

to free her husband, my son...

Benjamin Perralt Junior.

She found the money

and paid the ransom.

But they did not free Ti Ben.

I think of all these families...

These injustices must stop.

We won't negotiate

with criminals.

Today, I declare:

I'll pay twice the amount

to anyone who can

help us find my son.

I will pay 300,000 US dollars

to fight

impunity and start

rewarding bravery.

That was our special edition.

Have a good electoral weekend.

Goodbye.

Cut!

Ambassador, thank you.

Senator, thank you.

If so, everybody in this country

would live abroad.

Why not go to Chile?

Cut the crap!

If it was so good, why didn't you stay?

Uncle, we have an emergency.

Don't start

with your emergencies.

Why are you here?

It's been 5 years.

Uncle, I didn't have time.

In the meantime, my wife died,

I fell sick, you're just a slacker.

- No-one came to see me.

- Don't say that.

Jean-Marie didn't come

at the funeral?

He's here, ask him.

Granny loved that kid so much.

Kids only think about themselves!

You can't play, you say nothing.

Uncle, please take the bike.

Let us go.

Marcel, are you playing or what?

If you're leaving, you gotta sleep here.

Tomorrow I leave at 3 AM!

Uncle, there are 2 of us.

- 2? For the same bike?

- Yes!

- I couldve helped if I had played 29..

- 29 came out?

The rat numbers won:

29.90.26.

I was waiting for this draw,

I didn't win a dime!

- See?

- You would've turned g*y.

You can go, man.

I screwed you up.

You said it was your last mission.

I'll talk to the boss.

We'll see what happens, bro.

Captain,

look at what you could do.

I told you.

$1,500 per person for the Bahamas.

Did Jean-Marie tell you

how risky it was?

Guys, you suck!

I win. f*ck you!

You're calling me.

I don't have my phone, bro.

Hey, Doc, it's Laura.

The woman you kidnapped.

How are you? How's the baby?

- Can we do the trade?

- What trade?

I give you 20% of the $300,000.

I just need you to sh**t a video.

We get the money, split it,

and go our separate ways.

A video?

$300,000, 20%, a video,

and we're off. Are you in or not?

- 50%.

- Bye.

Wait. 40%.

Should I hang up?

35. Or you wouldn't have called me.

20%.

Is Patrick OK?

20%. Tell the other idiot

Manoushka called.

She's pregnant and won't abort.

Talk later.

Wait, can you top up my phone?

I'm out of credit.

I'll call you back.

OK, thanks.

Did you interrogate him?

He tried to steal the money.

He was about to cross the border.

His partners must've beaten him

and taken the money.

All of the money?

Where did Audrey find this Eddy?

Any news from Ti Ben?

He's fine.

Listen, let Audrey talk to him later

because she's not doing well.

Release him tonight

when things have calmed down.

We said

we'd release him after the elections.

Things have changed.

They could cancel the elections.

They won't, the USA is backing you.

The money is spent!

I didn't ask your opinion.

What's the problem?

Well, there shouldn't be any, but...

we have a problem.

I don't have a location

for Ti Ben.

I don't understand.

He's with my men.

Where are your men?

I can't reach them.

You can't reach them?

That's what I'm saying.

That's what you're saying?

It's fine.

On Sunday you'll be President!

We're talking about my child!

Your child? Chloe's your child.

What? You're just his biological father,

you didn't raise him.

He's not even

the same color as you.

What's this bullshit? You made me risk

his life so people would relate to me!

"They won't vote for a mulatto,

look at Candidate Baker."

You're so prejudiced!

I screwed up 'cause of you!

If he wasn't black,

would you have kidnapped him?

You assaulted a top cop.

Go f*ck yourself!

Be careful... I have your files.

What?

Your career ends tomorrow!

Forget about your promotion!

You have until midnight

to give me my son! Midnight!

Mom, are you well?

I see the missed calls.

My battery was dead.

You saw our team lost...

But at least...

Ronaldo scored,

I'm sure you're not too disappointed.

Listen, Mom...

Don't wait for me tonight.

I won't come home.

Uncle Enoch will give you

money I left.

I asked him

to buy you your medicine.

If you don't hear from me,

you don't have to worry.

I'm with Jean-Marie.

Everything will be OK.

Your son loves you.

Bye.

Is it filming?

OK, OK, I didn't know.

January 27, 2017.

Can you see?

It's the weekend!

We have Benjamin Perralt.

Yes! Benjamin Perralt Junior!

Let me clarify, Junior!

Yes, little Junior!

We want $300,000 cash!

It's all about the Benjamins, baby!

If the money doesn't come home,

he's not going home!

You have 24 hours.

k*ll the sheep! If you want

the country's son back, you better pay!

Benjamin, why don't you pick up?

Unknown caller

I'll pay.

The election of a new president

plunges Haiti into chaos.

A victim of kidnapping,

the new president vows to fight...

...the gangs that terrorize

the people of Haiti.

They expect a lot of him.

As the family paid 2 ransoms,

the elected president, Benjamin Perralt

is attending the funeral

of his son, Benjamin Perralt Junior.

The police found his body

alongside a former

Haitian soldier

who became a mercenary,

Lt. Robert Jean Brutus

alias Kamikaz.

Police can't give

more details about the crime scene,

but they believe there could

be a 3rd person involved

who m*rder*d his partner

and the victim to cover his tracks.

President Perralt is coming

out of the church, with his family.

We're trying to approach him.

President,

any comment?

We'll hunt down those criminals.

And justice will punish them all.

Captain! Captain!

He didn't say you would sink

He didn't say you would drown

He said

Let's go to the other side

Let's go to the other side

If the sea is unleashed

If the wind blows hard

If the boat takes you

Don't be afraid of death

He didn't say you would sink

He didn't say you would drown

He said

Let's go to the other side

Let's go to the other side

Consider all the worlds

Thy hands have made

I see the stars

I hear the rolling thunder

Thy power

Throughout the universe displayed

Then sings my soul,

my Savior God, to Thee

Lord Almighty

How great Thou art!

Then sings my soul,

my Savior God, to Thee

Lord Almighty

How great Thou art!

And when I think

that God His Son not sparing

Sent Him to die,

I scarce can take it in

Will they never shut the f*ck up?

Shouting

like we're in a brothel...

I miss my girl so much.

You got money now, man.

Send for her.

Especially since...

I forgot to tell you, man...

I forgot to tell you, but...

Manoushka called Laura.

What did she say?

Well...

it's neither good nor bad news,
