THE FEMALE EXECUTIONER

Do you know what you are?

Then say it.

You're nothing but a little slut.

Yes, I am, I'm a slut.

You like this, don't you?

I know you do, huh?

You're going to enjoy every minute of it.

Louder girl.

Louder I said.

You're not bad looking you know.

Yes.

That's it buddy, take 'em away.

It's now or never, men.

We're dead on target.

What do you know.

You missed, you mother fucker.

Try again mother, come on.

Oh, this is fun.

Run your heart out, you cunt.

- Take a whiff, cleans up your mind.

- What the hell is going on Valmont?

What's all the shooting about?

Come in Valmont.

- Come on. - Do you hear me?

What's going on?

- Lieutenant Valmont, new boy on the beat, let's see.

I can tell you what's in it.

Sadism, zoophilia, that's making it with animals,

child porn, ain't pretty.

But you had no call to shoot him full of holes.

- He's been pedaling shit for months, right under your nose.

No bullets?

They weigh down my handbag.

You ain't heard the last of this.

Are you out of your mind or what?

All I did was rap him one.

Yes, you did.

- And if you don't tell me where you find the girls,

there's more coming.

Place your bets.

The bets are down, no more bets.

Double gin.

- They tell me you took a grand worth of chips.

What's it to you?

Nothing, except you lost.

And you still owe them three thou'.

What I'd like to know is,

how they let you run up that big a bill?

I need a bit more time, that's all.

You'd lose that too brother.

Somebody over there wants to talk to you,

ask you a couple of questions, if you don't mind.

- Nadine Wenders, I presume you have some idea

about who I am.

Everybody knows who you are.

May I introduce my brother?

Luigi, a gambling man.

Ah, so that's Luigi.

How does he plan to pay back the money he owes?

- I got two ways out, I wash dishes for you for 20 years,

or I make it back and play my last 10 bucks.

Ah, cut it out, you'd manage to lose,

even if you bet on the sun rising tomorrow morning.

I've got a third way out for you, Luigi.

I need somebody like you to kidnap somebody.

Thank you, but that ain't my bag lady.

I can take on four like you,

and lay them out dead side-by-side.

- I'm a bit hungry, you got something to eat?

- How are you? - Oh.

Why hide it?

You're...

- I'm her sister, and you're her lover I suppose.

You're running true to type, you know.

My sister only goes for short brown haired men,

who are shy, may 1?

- Joelle, this is no time to get home.

No, I'm not staying either.

Life is like beautiful, I'm having a ball.

If it were up to me, I'd go out, enjoy the weather,

but I have a class, ciao and have fun.

Would you mind telling me

where you spent the night?

- What do you know, the lady cop is working overtime.

I was at the Midnight club with some friends,

and I've got a witness.

It was fun,

but nobody got his hands below the belt, ciao lovers,

No hands below the belt.

Tell me how many short brown-haired men

did you lay on that couch?

Counting you 1,001.

Is that you Sarge?

Yeah, it's me.

How are you?

Sorry to disturb you, but well,

I've got a snitch who wants to talk.

Lay him on whoever's around.

- She doesn't want to talk to anyone, but you.

You got her name?

- Yeah, Blake, like William Blake, the philosopher.

Hi, thought it was your day off.

Can I see you later?

Yeah, later.

Hi, did she call back?

What's that?

Get your feet off.

You mean?

I mean Blake, you nit.

- No, no, but if that is I, I mean, who is she?

She works with some broad

that goes by the name of Wenders,

at the Cloister.

- Ah, I wouldn't trust her to give me the time of day.

I trust her.

- Me, the only information I trust

is when my mother's rheumatism tells her it's gonna rain.

- That's funny now get me the file

on Mrs. Wenders.

International bus station

- Madam Wenders, I, we got us a dilly here.

I used to tap phones before I landed here.

We hooked into her line because,

because of a sex show or a peep show involving a minor,

she used to be a lady pimp.

Now she's tied in with a Chinese in some kind of racket.

She's what I call the big game ah-uh.

If you want to bring down an elephant,

you take dead aim on a soft spot.

Oh, that's right.

Who is this?

- It's Blake, Mrs. Wenders is gonna kidnap some kid

at St. Mary's College tomorrow morning.

Now, what did I tell ya?

If it weren't for stoolies, the police would be hamstrung.

Come in Robert, do you read me?

If you do come on in.

Well I say, I've got a problem.

I think the battery's dead.

- You're supposed to change them once in a while.

Why don't you get some help?

You're not supposed to go it alone.

Since we're going to work together,

there's one thing you should know,

I might as well tell you now.

I'm the one who decides.

- Here, I'll be that's your snitches snatchers.

That's a piss-poor pun.

- Maybe, the ambulance gambit, it's a classic.

Yeah, in books.

Come on, what do we do?

Shouldn't we phone the Dean or something?

Clue him in on what's happening.

- No, I wanna catch Mrs. Wenders red-handed.

I'm told she stays around to keep an eye out.

Go check his ID.

Why does it always have to be me?

Because I've seen him somewhere,

and he may recognize me,

and stop arguing every time I ask you something.

Police, would you be so kind

as to show me your license, please?

They really picked me some partner.

We're taking some kid to the hospital,

she's got appendicitis.

Come in.

Hi, you wanted to see me?

Man, you crazy or what?

Fuck off.

You are crazy.

Hey you, stop.

What did I tell you?

Stop.

The mother fuckers.

Stop, police.

They're getting away.

Damn it, stop, police.

You're out of your mind.

Shit, I could have had them.

You're getting...

How did it go?

No sweat, wrapped and delivered.

And the ambulance?

Down in the lake.

- I'm driving back to Paris, do like I said,

everything will work out and don't anybody touch her.

Is that clear?

- Absolutely clear. - Good.
