One night, during winter, at 7 o’clock, two men were in the street. They were waiting for a shop to close.

CARL. – So what are we doing ?
PETER. – We’re going into the shop and we’re taking the cash!
CARL. – Okay I got it !

They went into the shop…

CARL. – There is a girl over there, what do we have to do ?
PETER. – Calm down! I’m going to talk to her.
SIHEM. – Hi, can I help you ?
PETER. – Yes you can, just give me the cash !
SIHEM. – Why should I ?
PETER. – I just want the money, I don’t want to hurt you !
SIHEM. – I don’t think it’s going to happen !

Sihem pushed a button and then she ran away. An alarm was ringing into the shop.

CARL. – Peter, what’s happening now ?
PETER. – I don’t know but we have to take the money.
CARL. – Peter, we have to go : we don’t have the time now.
PETER. – I just need to do something. Wait a minute !
CARL. – I’m sorry. I can’t let the cops take me.
PETER. – Don’t you dare leave me alone, brother !
CARL. – I’m sorry, good luck…
PETER. – You will pay for that !

The cops got into the shop and Hannah found Peter.

HANNAH. – So, you’re the one who did that ?
PETER. – I’ll explain the whole story later.
HANNAH. – Of course, you will ! Come with me to the police station !

At the police station:

HANNAH. – So tell me why you did that !
PETER. – What do you think, I wanted to get some money !
HANNAH. – There are other ways to have money !
PETER. – But I wanted to do that, and I wasn’t alone !
HANNAH. – Really ? So you’re telling me that an other person was with you ?
PETER. – Yes, my brother !
HANNAH. – And what’s his name ?
PETER. – Carl, Carl Johnsen !
HANNAH. – Oh okay, and why wasn’t he with you when we came in ?
PETER. – He ran away !
HANNAH. – Okay I see, that’s all for today, no more questions for you.

Hannah went straight to Carl’s apartment.

CARL. – What are you doing here ?
HANNAH. – I talked to your brother…
CARL. – Oh, so he told you that I was with him.
HANNAH. – Yes… Why ??
CARL. – We needed money… but I didn’t think it was going to be like that. I wanted to stop him when we got into the shop.
HANNAH. – I believe you, I know you’re not a liar and I owe you something, remember.
CARL. – Yes I know and I hope that you can help me with that. I haven’t done anything wrong !
HANNAH. – I know, I know. I have to go, I’ll talk to you later.

Meanwhile, Sihem went to the police station to see Peter.

SIHEM. – Hi
PETER. – Hi…
SIHEM. – So, did it work ?
PETER. – Kind of.
SIHEM. – What do you mean ?
PETER. – I said what I had to say, so for now everything is fine.
SIHEM. – That’s all good then ! I hope that the rest of the plan will be okay.
PETER. – Me too.

Hannah went back to the police station and found Peter with Sihem.

HANNAH. – Hi !
SIHEM. – Hi… I just wanted to make sure he was here, what he did was just terrible !
HANNAH. – Don’t lie to me, I know that you know him !
PETER. – That’s not true !
HANNAH. – I did my research, I know what I’m saying.
SIHEM. – Okay fine…
PETER. – What are you doing ?
SIHEM. – I don’t want to lie anymore…
HANNAH. – Tell me.
SIHEM. – I have known him for a long time and we wanted to have some money, that’s why we did that…
PETER. – We’re sorry.
HANNAH. – It’s okay, I’ll let you go but promise me to stop your little games !
SIHEM. – And what’s going to happen to Carl ? He should go to jail !
HANNAH. – And why ? He hasn’t done anything wrong ! Peter is not going to jail, so Carl is not going either.
SIHEM. – Yes you’re right, that was stupid.

Carl went to the police station.

CARL. – So what did I miss ?
HANNAH. – It’s okay you’re not going to jail, neither is Peter.
CARL. – Thank you ! I know that what he did wasn’t good so thank you.

Carl went outside and shouted.

CARL. – I’M FREE !
