There he comes.
Hi.
So, what's up?
Good afternoon, gentlemen! How are you?
Okay, great. Imagine, yesterday I was at 't Hoogt,
With Steven, and, er... that other guy.
I was sitting there...
What's this about?
We're looking for investors.
The financing isn't complete, and it's a big production this time...
so there has to be invested.
Then you've really made a big production possible.
How much are we talking about? - Two hundred.
Gee... - It's going to be a blockbuster.
Surely you remember how successful 'The Black Page' was?
'Hey, dude, we've got a new play! Do you mind giving us
two hundred euros for it?' Can you imagine?
For such a large production, it's not that big a deal.
It's really not that big a risk.
But what did you guys want to talk to me about?
Well, the two hundred euros too, actually.
Are you kidding? Jeez, man. - We need the money.
Yeah, I know, but come on, I thought I could relax a little with you.
We really need the two hundred euros. - Yeah, undoubtably.
Well, you know, it's a lot of money...
I haven't got a lot as it is...
I really can't lose the money, you know?
The last times, the plays were great!
'The Black Page' was really good...
But if no one sees them... - That was because we weren't ready.
We've really learned a lot, it's no problem this time.
Of course, but... - Or don't you trust us?
Well, sure, I trust you, but...
We really need you. It's very important.
Sure, buddy, but I'm not going to pay for a play that no-one will see.
Look, if you invest, you'll have artistic...
You get to discuss the content with us.
Of a play no-one will see. - You get to choose actors.
You know, if you really want the play to be a success...
Give me the lead part.
Well, we'll have to ask Steven. - No, Steven, mr. Steven Spielberg...
... isn't the god of your theatre. - He did set it up.
So what? He asked you to join him. You're also members.
Well, if you invest, we could try to get you a small part...
Listen, it's simple. Just give me the lead. You'll have a packed house, I guarantee.
Five hundred euros, and you get the lead part.
I'll have to think about it, okay? Well, don't think to long.
You know, if you keep annoying me, I'm leaving. See you.
Always that damn group. Can't they just...
But I don't want them to think I'm a coward.
They're all so boring, so weak.
If I want something from them, I don't even...
You know, what do they do?
Maybe... Maybe that's because they're afraid of you.
Afraid? Of me?
Why would anyone be afraid of me?
Listen, I think... - You think? You think?
Maybe... Maybe you should mind your own business.
What do you know? Mr. Expert? Mr. I-let-my-friends-tell-me-what-to-do?
Hey! I don't let them!
Okay, sometimes I do what they say, but I don't have a choice!
Whatever.
You know, just do like I do. Be fun, be pleasant.
That's not that difficult, is it?
It's not easy.
You're just as weak as the others. - Hey, what about you?
You always say people are boring, but you never really listen to them!
You always say people are weak, but you never let them prove themselves to you!
Hey, at least I'm not scared of my friends!
At least I don't scare them!
You're weak, you.
I'd rather be weak than that I'd terrorise my friends!
Well?
