[somber music playing]
[line ringing]
[woman] Hello?
Hello? I can't hear anything. Hello?
Yeva, is that you?
Yeah.
[sighs] You left so quickly.
I kept calling you. I
I live in Poland right now.
You didn't even come to the funeral.
I buried him.
I have a pretty decent job.
I I've met someone,
and actually, he's a really good person.
It's just that,
um, my good friend, well [sighs]
She desperately needs help.
Mama
I don't know what to do about that.
Honey, come back home, okay?
We'll manage somehow.

[high-pitched ringing]
GO AHEAD, BROTHER
[ringing subsides]
[ominous music rises]
[cell phone vibrates]
[quietly] Fuck's sake, Sergey.
[suspenseful music pulsing]
[exhales deeply]
[cell phone vibrates]
- Turn it off.
- [whispers] Sorry, boss.
[lock rattling]
Tomczyk?
Mr. Bogdan.
[suspenseful music building]
[music fades]
- Hi.
- Hey.
Shoes.
[Damian sighs]
Do you remember
when I made you my head of security?
What did I tell you?
From that moment on,
I work for you, not my father.
[Bogdan] I brought you on board
to handle any issue that arises.
To ensure that everything operates
smoothly and efficiently.
And you fucking dare
to demolish a hospital
and have the audacity to give me lip?
Sit down.
So, what's your problem with Tomczyk?
The Georgian.
Someone set him up for the CBI.
I believe it was Tomczyk.
Do you have any proof?
The guy who killed Oleg
he works for Tomczyk.
Lives in his brothel.
And that's proof that Tomczyk
tipped off the cops about the Georgian?
[sighs]
You know what I see
when I look at Tomczyk?
I see an Employee of the Month portrait.
If we had a company headquarters,
an entire corridor would be plastered
with his fucking mug.
That's how efficient the fucker is.
I want and will have order.
Tomczyk will take the Georgian's spot.
If I catch wind of you causing
any trouble for him,
I'll take it as a personal affront.
Are we clear?
[sighs]
I've asked you a simple question.
- Yeah, we're clear.
- Mm.
And what if I find proof?
[ominous music playing]
[crows cawing]
[Sylwek] Look around the perimeter.
Sure.
- They've got perimeter security.
- That doesn't mean it's on.
- Then why do they have it?
- If it's on, then we can turn it off.
Look. Come on, come on, come on, come on
[Gwiazda] Ah, I think it's a lover.
He gave her something, right?
[Sylwek] That's enough, Gwiazda, really.
- Did you hear what I said?
- [Gwiazda] A peek.
- Just a short one.
- We have everything. What are you up to?
[Gwiazda] Just a second.
[gunfire over TV]
[explosions blast]
[man on TV] We're 100 miles
north of the target.
Back to kill.
- [loud explosions continue on TV]
- [indistinct radio chatter]
Karol, turn that down!
Wait, hang on.
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
Uh, check this out.
[blows] We know where the safe is.
We'll get the combination
from the recording.
We just have to handle that alarm.
[Gwiazda] Eight uh
eight, seven, two, four
[Sylwek] Eight, seven, two, four.
Let me write it down.
Eight, seven, two, four
- [grunts]
- [music fades]
What will you do with the money?
Oh, don't tell me
you hadn't thought about it.
You know what I'll do with it, so
I wouldn't have asked
if I knew the answer.
If I don't return from a job someday,
I want to make sure that Marta
and the baby are taken care of.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. I meant,
you know, something more for yourself.
That is for myself.
Sounds good.
I'm gonna take my girl
on an awesome vacation far, far away.
Huh? Like, to reset my brain.
You've got a girlfriend?
What do you think
I'm dressing up for? You?
[Sylwek sniffs]
What about the house?
The debt with Tomczyk?
Yeah, that too.
Listen, what if we cut their power off?
No use. The security company
will be notified anyway.
[sighs]
Unless they let us into their home.
[sighs] Zero risk.
- We already covered this.
- Chill, bro.
No problem. We'll do it your way.
[sighs]
Here. Don't lose it.
Oh. [laughs]
Got it.
[Sylwek] I still can't believe
you pulled that shit off.
[Gwiazda] You need to loosen up.
- You're so uptight.
- [Sylwek] Fuck off.
[engine starts]
[energetic music playing]
[engine starts]
[footsteps approaching]
[music peaks, fades]
[gun cocks]
[knocking on door]
[knocking continues]
[woman] Oskar!
Oskar, are you there?
[tense music rises]
[sighs]
[gun clicks]
- [gentle music playing]
- [Yeva panting]
[both breathing heavily]
[Yeva moaning]
[moaning grows louder]
[Yeva cries out]
[Gwiazda grunting]
[both catching their breath]
[Yeva giggles]
[both laugh]
[Yeva chuckles softly]
Mm!
[both chuckle]
[Gwiazda] Shh.
[Yeva takes a deep breath]
[breathing shakily]
Should we spend a week or two
somewhere warm, by the sea?
I just have to take care of
one thing first,
and then we can go. Hmm?
Time will tell.
We'll go. Here. Pick something.
[shower running]
[Gwiazda] Did you pick something?
Uh, the food's expensive, and I'm sure it
doesn't taste good. I'll order food to go.
[Gwiazda] Wait. I'll go with you.
Don't worry about it.
There's a church nearby.
I'll stop by for a "whiley."
A little "whiley,"
or a long "whiley," though?
[both laugh]
You keep making fun of me.
[pensive music playing]
[Tomczyk grunts]
[tense music playing]
- [phone chimes]
- [Sylwek gasps]
[Marta sighs]
[grunts softly]
[Marta exhales]
Everything okay?
Yeah, everything's fine.
I just need to head out.
Why don't you go
to a therapist while you're at it?
[Sylwek sighs]
For now, your brother,
he's like a therapist to me.
[Marta grunts]
[Sylwek] If he only
talked less about his new girlfriend.
[Marta] Oskar has a girlfriend?
Or so he says.
But is it serious?
Do you know any details? What's her name?
No idea.
- Sylwek, you don't even know her name?
- [chuckles] I mean, I don't ask questions.
[Marta] Don't think I didn't notice
how skillfully you changed the subject.
[bright music playing]
[door closes]
I think I've fallen in love with you.
[both breathing heavily]
Bye-bye.
[softly] Bye-bye.
[sighs]
[music grows tense]
[tense music subsides]
[drink pouring]
[Czorny] Why didn't you take
Bogdan's side right away?
- [Damian] I'm on the company's side.
- [Czorny] Well, listen.
When his Parkinson's disease
takes a toll on him,
he'll appoint Tomczyk as his replacement.
That's unacceptable to us.
We have to take out
the motherfucker first.
So please don't fuckin' tell me
that you're on the side of the company.
No way you can support that fucker
over your own fuckin' blood.
It was your First Communion.
Everyone who mattered in town came to it.
Even Mack the Knife,
who was the boss back then.
- Are you feeling nostalgic?
- Don't interrupt! Just listen.
You might realize something.
Bogdan didn't want to appear stingy.
He just wanted to put me in my place.
He bought you the most expensive bike.
A women's bike, though.
The family chronicle won't change
my opinion of Bogdan.
He gives you the bike and says,
"When Damian stops being a little pussy,
I'll buy him a proper men's bike."
- [bangs rack]
- I was so fuckin' pissed off about it.
[chuckles] So I said,
in front of everyone,
"Did you buy a women's bike
because it was on sale?"
[chuckles] Everybody laughed.
But then he had a better idea.
You were just ten years old
when he began taking you
on trips to collect dues.
You'd come back and say things like,
"Uncle Bogdan this, Uncle Bogdan that"
You wanted to drive a car?
He gave you a car.
You wanted to join the army?
He got you papers
for the French Foreign Legion.
And do you have a point?
[Czorny sighs]
Bogdan stole my son.
That is my fucking point.
[Tomczyk] The percentage
of individual investors
that experience a loss
on their investment is 80%.
How come? Because instead of coming to me,
they sign up
for some kind of online seminar
or listen to some
some shitty YouTuber's advice.
Please, take a seat.
Tea? Coffee?
Listen, Bogdan assured me
that the disagreement
between us had been resolved.
[Damian] Not long ago,
you were a shady door-to-door salesman.
And today?
You're taking over the Georgian's
multi-million-dollar business.
You've done well for yourself.
- Did you know the Georgian?
- [Tomczyk] In passing.
- Bogdan introduced us.
- [Damian] Mm.
He was a born salesman.
He could sell you
your own shit-stained underwear,
and you'd fuckin' thank him for it.
He destroyed people's families, careers
And somehow, none of it
could be proved by anyone.
If you think
that I'm unable to replace him,
then just tell that to Bogdan.
To him, your opinion
matters a great deal.
[sighs] Damian
If only you could be
a little bit more objective,
we would be unstoppable together.
[unsettling music playing]
Come on. Do me the pleasure.
Open it.
You didn't really know the Georgian?
You look good in that one.
You want extra prints?
I have more of them.
One day, you'll tell me the entire story.
And I promise,
I'll be as objective as I can.
[unsettling music fades]
SECURITY
[car horn beeps]
[indistinct chatter]
[tense music playing]
[exhales]
[sighs]
MAĆKOWIAK, WIERZBOWA 98
BORYS KOZAK, WIERZBOWA 132
WIERZBOWA 139
ŁÓDŹ, WIERZBOWA 98
BORYS KOZAK, WIERZBOWA 132
ADRIAN, STAŃCZAK, WIERZBOWA 139
[Gwiazda] These three marked houses belong
to the tax fraudsters from the mall.
We start with the Maćkowiaks.
We go in
during the day, while they're at work.
We enter the house,
set off the alarm, empty the safe.
Their security services are all provided
by the same company,
which means that it makes no difference
if they arrive after seven minutes or not,
We'll already be at Kozak's house.
Then wham, bam, bam,
through the back gardens,
we're at the third house, making bank.
Did your dad drop you
on your head as a baby?
My mom, at the grocer's.
It's one of my first memories.
One home.
Just one home. During the day.
Either we do it my way, or I'm out.
What mischief are you boys up to?
[under breath] Great.
We're looking at car paints,
'cause Oskar wants
to gussy up his rust bucket.
Junior, we're seeing you Friday
for the bonfire?
The bonfire?
You know? Yesterday, I told you to come by
with your girlfriend?
[teasingly] Junior's got a girlfriend ♪
[all laugh]
[Marta] What?
How much does Damian know?
[exhales]
Then attack first.
Hmm. Damian's got a small private army.
He would crush us.
Not him. Make the first move.
Show the Czornys
that you can admit to a mistake.
You have nothing to hide.
Give them Gwiazda.
[Tomczyk clicks tongue, sighs]
[sighs] He's nobody. He's trash.
Hmm?
[cell phone ringing]
- Hello?
- [Tomczyk] Oskar, my friend.
We didn't finish our last conversation.
Let's not pretend
I don't know what's going on, okay?
Can you be more specific?
You've come into
quite a substantial sum of money.
And you didn't think of me at all.
How am I supposed to feel about that, huh?
[high-pitched ringing over phone]
Hey, when someone asks you a question,
it's just common courtesy to respond.
What do you want?
I expect that you'll perform
the responsibilities
that are essential to our agreement.
That is, in its original terms.
[sighs] I don't have that much.
You might not at the moment,
but you're planning to, am I right?
- [key clatters]
- Oskar, pay me off.
Or the people who are looking for you,
well, they'll find you.
You have until Sunday.
[breathing shakily]
["Águas de março"

[jazzy Brazilian bossa nova tune playing]
[light, jazzy tune concludes]
[Gwiazda panting]
- [static crackles]
- [high-pitched ringing]
[shakily] Middle finger. Ring finger
Little finger.
[breathing deeply]
[distortion subsides]
[somber music playing]
[Marecki] Our two colleagues
gave their lives in the line of duty.
Our hearts go out
to their families, mothers,
fathers, wives, children.
They left us too soon.
Much too soon.
May they rest in peace.
DADDY
Better late than never.
Remember when I said
they'd just let us in?
A Pole feels guilty
the second they see a uniform.
Three homes.
Sunday at dawn.
[music grows ominous]
Today, it's three homes in uniforms.
Tomorrow, you're gonna rob banks?
Tomczyk hid a camera in my basement.
He knows what we're doing.
I gotta pay him by tomorrow,
or he'll give us to the Czornys.
[Sylwek sighs]
POLICE
What's this about?
[officers scream]
[doorbell rings]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Karol] Oh, fuck.
What?
- What?
- It's the police.
- Where?
- At the gate.
What do we do?
- Hello.
- [Gwiazda] Good morning.
Anyone else in the house?
Uh, my wife. What's this about?
[Sylwek] Please call her.
I won't until you tell me.
[Gwiazda] Sir, please, let us do our job.
Call your wife, please.
[Karol] Basia!
- [Basia] Karol.
- What?
- Do something.
- What the fuck should I do?
I have no idea.
Don't say anything!
Don't say any
[grunts]
[muffled] Karol, don't say anything!
[Gwiazda] Go, go, go, go, go.
That's it.
Lie down. Tape.
Tape.
[Karol grunts]
[Gwiazda] You know your neighbor's fucking
your wife?
[Gwiazda] I told you
it'd be a piece of cake.
[Sylwek sighs]
- [Gwiazda] Hello. Anyone in the house?
- Hello. My wife. What's this about?
We're looking for a fugitive.
We suspect he's hiding
somewhere around here.
[Sylwek] We're checking all the houses.
[man] Come in.
[Gwiazda] Can you call your wife, please?
Don't cry, darling. It's okay.
This man is not going to hurt you.
- Where's the money?
- [wife] I beg you.
- Please, don't hurt him.
- I asked you a question!
Where's the money?
[wife sobs] No, please!
[Gwiazda] Where the fuck is the money?!
- [man] Go fuck yourself!
- [wife] Please, don't
- [Gwiazda] Shut your mouth!
- [Sylwek] Cut this shit out!
[wife] Please tell them
where the money is!
[Sylwek] Oskar!
You know I wouldn't have done
anything, right?
I fucking don't, Gwiazda. I fucking don't.
Oh, fuck.
[music ends abruptly]
[Gwiazda] Good morning.
Ma'am, we're looking for a fugitive.
We suspect he's hiding
somewhere around here.
[exhales]
[Sylwek] We're checking all the houses
in the area.
[Gwiazda] Anyone else in the house?
Uh no.
There's nobody else?
Uh, please take the dog away, all right?
Well okay.
- Come here. Come.
- [Gwiazda] She's hammered.
- Or it's sleeping pills or both. Easy.
- [woman] It's time for a little nap.
Come on. Let's go over here with Mommy.
Come in, go ahead.
Look for your criminal.
[laughs]
Can you come over here, please?
Of course.
[Gwiazda sighs]
- Now, lie down nicely on the floor.
- Oh. Very well.
[exhales]
Is this okay? Yes?
- Put your hands behind your back.
- Sure. No problem.
- [Gwiazda] Excellent. That's it.
- [laughing]
[grunts] Officers, can you tell me
what I'm accused of?
[laughs]
[Gwiazda] I will when you tell me
where the money is.
If you're civil and tell me,
we'll be civil and leave.
- Uh-huh.
- And no harm will come to you.
- Do you understand?
- [laughing] Mm-hmm.
[Gwiazda] So, where's the money?
Huh?
- [Gwiazda] Where's the money?
- Uh
The dough. The loot.
- What?
- [Gwiazda] The cash.
- [teen grunts]
- [Sylwek] Fuck.
Hey! There's a kid!
[Gwiazda] I asked
if there was anyone else!
- [Sylwek] Hey! Hey! Talk to me, c'mon.
- [Gwiazda] Want someone to help him?
- [woman sobbing]
- [Gwiazda] Tell me where the money is!
Stop screaming,
and tell me where the money is!
I asked you a question. Where's the money?
- [Sylwek] Hey.
- [continues sobbing]
[Sylwek] Hey, talk to me! Are you with me?
- [Gwiazda] Where? Talk.
- [Sylwek] Are you with me?
- Fuck, he's not breathing!
- [Gwiazda] Tell me!
Stop screaming,
and tell me where the money is!
Where's the money at?
[grunts]
[Gwiazda whistles]
Get a bigger bag!
[exhales]
Granny's money.
[blows, sniffs]
Medical assistance needed. Wierzbowa, 132.
It's urgent.
[sighs]
We asked if someone was home.
She didn't have to fucking lie.
[Sylwek sniffles]
[Gwiazda] Sylwek.
Come on.
I packed Tomczyk's share.
Split the rest in half, all right?
Hey, you wanted security for your family?
Now you got it. [sighs]
- [car door closes]
- [engine starts]
[unsettling music playing]
[cell phone ringing]
CALL DECLINED
[Gwiazda sniffles]
[Tomczyk] So this is where you're hiding.
[tense music fades out]
[Gwiazda] And now,
kindly get the fuck outta my house.
[Tomczyk sighs]
Why use such foul language?
Cheerio.
[door closes]
As far as I know, he picked the easy marks
out of the shop owners
in the shopping mall.
This morning, he phoned me
to set up a meeting,
and this bag that you see here
is the result of that meeting.
[sighs]
Considering the Czorny family
suffered some casualties,
I hereby offer
the contents of this bag to you.
In its entirety. As compensation.
Did he work alone?
His brother-in-law
might've helped him out.
A CT agent.
[Bogdan] Do you accept it?
We accept it.
[Bogdan] Then be nice and shake hands.
Was it even worth it
to feel sorry for yourself?
[Czorny] Damian!
- [cell phone vibrating]
- [knocking on door]
[Oksana] Oskar's waiting
for you downstairs.
Stop fucking knocking
and leave me the fuck alone, okay?
Listen, he just wants
to introduce you to his family, you know?
No big deal. I mean, he
You're not being forced to wed him.
Fucking easy for you to say, huh?
Do you even have a clue
what I got myself into because of you?
Listen, I didn't know.
You said yourself that Tomczyk
would leave us alone right away.
No, my dear.
It's not the last time.
He'll never leave us alone.
[somber music playing]
Do you like this boy?
[cell phone vibrating]
Then don't tell him anything.
He doesn't need to know.
[group speaking inaudibly]
Sylwek, how about
a tiny embroidered blouse
like this for our Zosia, huh?
- Sure, why not.
- Great. Yeah?
- Okay, yes. I'll make one.
- [Gwiazda] But after we get back.
We're thinking about heading to Malta.
- For a little getaway.
- [Marta] To Malta?
- [Gwiazda] Mm-hm.
- [Marta] That's great!
- Where did you two meet? You didn't say.
- [Marta] He did.
I didn't hear.
- Yeva works at the mall, in a boutique.
- [Yeva] Where?
- A store located in the mall.
- So not in your brothel, then?
- [Marta] Sylwek!
- Apologize.
- [music fades]
- Not judging. Just asking if you
- [Marta] Oskar, no!
- [Yeva] Oskar!
No, no! Don't. Don't!
- Oskar, there's no need!
- [Marta] Oskar! Lunatics.
- Sylwek, stop!
- [grunting]
It's good I snitched on the Georgian.
It gave me an opportunity.
But I had to cause friction
with the Czorny family.
And the provocation with Szkudlarek's
driver didn't help me much.
But then,
by a complete and utter coincidence,
Oskar Gwiazda entered the scene.
And stole their fucking money.
Not only that,
he killed Damien's top guy in the process.
- [commissioner] Mm. I hear admiration.
- He's a good man. What can I say?
Good and honorable.
But what can you do?
But will they help us?
He has already.
Dad, check this out.
Only one spoon left.
Bravo!
- Yum.
- [clock chiming]
[Tomczyk] Gotta go, Dad.
[intense music playing]
Sleep at my place tonight, okay?
Don't mind Sylwek.
He wanted to hurt me, not you. I know him.
Mr. Tomczyk.
You know him.
Yeva, stay away from him, okay?
As far as you can.
[sighs]
You know, my roommate, Oksana
Her husband is being held captive
by the Russians.
She received a phone call from them,
and they told her that if she doesn't make
the payment soon,
they'd cut off his fingers one by one
and send her the video.
She didn't have money, and
she asked me to accompany her
as her interpreter
to see Mr. Tomczyk.
It was after she was unable
to repay her debt,
he said that we would have to
Oksana she's got a little boy, and
um
Oskar, I was trapped
- I had no choice but to help her.
- All right.
- No. No, no, no, no.
- All right.
He knew everything about us.
Where we worked, where we lived
At first, he had planned for me
to be his personal cleaner, but then,
he began pressuring me
to provide information
about Mr. Grzesiek, and also
And also his father and
and also you Oskar.
[Sylwek sighs]
Yeva, this is awkward.
I really apologize
for what I said earlier.
It's not true. That's not what I think.
It wasn't directed at you.
I'm truly very sorry.
Sylwek, why don't you go grab some beers
or something.
All right.
