["Hal-hal Ini Terjadi" by FSTVLST playing]
BASED ON THE NOVEL "24 HOURS WITH GASPAR"
[Gaspar] When you were born,
people seemed to be running in the same direction.
But they keep stumbling into, stepping on and ignoring each other.
A direction not listed on the compass.
A direction not derived from virtue or common sense.
A direction that apparently no one knows.
You were born at a time of mega-chaos.
[music continues]
[music fades]
BARTER THINGS
[radio plays]
[man] I noticed you've been hanging out near that jewelry store for weeks.
A piece of advice:
if you think you can rob it, you're kidding yourself.
Nobody messes with that guy.
[man] He's a dangerous man.
Always able to justify whatever actions he takes.
[Gaspar] They then spun in circles, went mad and got greedy again.
You were born during the age of shamelessness.
[music resumes]
[Gaspar] When you were born,
people didn't greet each other like humans.
Each had their own representative in the form of numbers or codes,
with which they could be anyone but themselves
and meet anyone who did not exist.
Flesh to flesh no longer mattered.
Heart-to-heart is no longer true.
You were born in a time of falsehood.
[grunting]
[music continues]
When you were born, people competed for a brighter future.
As if entitled to hold the infinite world in their palms and fingertips.
They were joyful, astonished, and forgot to blink or turn their heads.
Then they didn't realize that they only saw a small dot
and forgot the rest of the vast universe.
You were born in a time of narrowness.
[woman over PA] Information delivery will now be organized
and facilitated by the National Guard.
Appointed by The National Security Agency
the Guard will be ensuring that all members of the general public
use devices linked to internet technology.
Guaranteeing efficient and thorough data collection.
This appointment has been heavily criticized by activists,
who see it as a form of heightened control over society
through digital devices.
In further National Guard news,
the 251 bodies recently discovered in six mass graves
will be formally identified by the State Forensic Service.
The names of the deceased should be made available in 90 days.
A source close to the investigation stated that the discovery of the mass graves
was not purely the work of the state
but rather a collective effort of civil society.

[Agnes] Hey!
You break bones not lights!
[crowd cheers]
You heard of Fight Club?
Chuck Palahniuk?
- [punching] - [cheering]
You can stay here if you want to.
Anybody who wants to fight can fight.
You should at least watch and learn how to defend yourself.
See that skinny guy with the mohawk?
He's a doctor.
Ask him to patch you up.
He usually gives his patients an energy drink.
- What kind of energy drink? - A glass of water.
In your case maybe a whole bottle.
[cheering continues]
[loud hoots, cheering]
MEET BEFORE MORNING. DISTRICT 7.
You're the one who found all those bodies, aren't you?
[distant shouting continues]
First rule of detective work is don't discuss your cases.
But I finally found the black box.
It actually exists? I thought it was a myth.
Whether they're real or not, sometimes we need myths to keep us going.
So is it myth or not?
It's just like Babaji described. As soon as I saw it, I knew it was real.
I secretly wished that box was a myth, because I think it'll be the death of you.
What are you planning to do now?
Get it for yourself?
Eventually, yes. I just need to confirm a few things first.
The man who has it is too powerful to face on my own.
[shouting continues]
Gaspar,
I want you to teach me how to be a detective.
- Agnes Von Kurowsky... - My name's Afif.
I'd rather get pelted by bricks standing naked in the square
than hear you call me Agnes.
[chuckles]
Being a detective's not easy or glamorous.
Nothing's been easy since all people do is comment on social media instead of read.
[Gaspar] Nothing new there, Agnes.

[Kirana] Gaspar.
Do you think detectives should always
uphold the truth and punish bad people?
[Young Gaspar] According to Arthur Harahap's novels,
a detective doesn't always have to deal with those major things.
Like upholding the truth or punishing bad people.
[Kirana] Are you always going to be a detective?
[Young Gaspar] I haven't thought about it.
[gentle music]
Why did you ask that?
[Kirana] If I disappeared one day, would you look for me?
[splashes]
[Young Gaspar] Why would you disappear?
[Kirana] I don't know.
[Young Gaspar] Babaji once told me:
"The act of seeking gives humans a reason to live."
[Babaji] Before you came along, Kirana, Gaspar had no friends.
So he forced me to be his friend.
[chuckles]
Look over there.
[Kirana] So you would look for me?
[Young Gaspar] I guess so.
[Kirana] Gaspar! Wake up!
[gentle music fades]
[grunts softly]
[groans]
[Gaspar grunts]
How did I even get here?
How do you think?
With Cortazar.
[Gaspar sighs painfully]
Your heart's not doing too good.
What's wrong with it?
Dextrocardia. Your heart, it's in the wrong place.
Always has been.
Yeah, but the device that helps your heart function stopped working.
So, you're probably gonna want to get that shit fixed quick.
And if I don't?
Then you're about to fuckin' die, man.
How much time?
Twenty-four hours tops.
- [bell tolls] - [digital beeps]
[groans softly]
[somber music]
[Gaspar and Young Gaspar] My name is Gaspar.
My heart is on the right side.
[Young Gaspar] Dragons tell their kids stories about me.
I don't have any parents.
I fell from the sky and was raised by Babaji,
a storyteller who had traveled half the earth to tell his tales.
[Babaji] Back then,
the villagers of Govardhan foothill
gave offerings to the god, Indra...
to ask him to bless them with rain for their crops.
Indra started to become arrogant,
so Shri Krishna decided it was time to teach him a lesson.
He convinced the villagers
that they should no longer address their offerings to Indra
and instead to start dedicating
and bringing them directly to the Govardhan Hill.
Because the hill was storing all the rainwater that the people needed
while Indra wasn't giving them any.
Indra, deprived of worship,
became angry and made it pour for seven days and seven nights.
WARNING DO NOT SWIM IN THE OCEAN
Shri Krishna then lifted the Govardhan Hill with his little finger
so the villagers could shelter themselves from the fierce weather
for those seven days and nights.
On the fifth day, Achal,
a farmer who had taken shelter under the hill
happened upon a mysterious object. A box. Black as the night.
What was in the box, Babaji?
Um... You could say it was magical. It had powers.
Something like Aladdin's lamp?
Exactly.
The black box's power is that it can grant our deepest wishes.
For example, if you asked, it would find your parents for you.
And then you could all be a family.
I don't wanna find my parents.
So? What would you wish for instead?
I'd wish for a friend.
[groans]

[Gaspar] Agent 368.
[Agent 368] State your password.
[Gaspar]I'll always find you, even if I forget.
[Agent 368] We have confirmed the death of the informant.
The report found that the agent in charge,
you, did not follow security protocols
and failed to instruct the informant to leave the premises in time.
[man] He sold his kid.
Yeah. For the sake of business relations and power.
But one day when the kid got sick,
we were told to take the kid back home. To this address.
HARTATI DIBYO CLINIC (MRS. TATI)
[man] Perhaps you can start looking there.
[somber music]
[music fades]
[machine beeps]
[gentle music]
I'm going to the hospital.
They just need to make sure everything's fine with my heart.
[Wan Ali] Kirana!
I can come with if you want.
That's okay. It's pretty boring.
But when I get back, we can read the new detective novels
that I'll bring for you.

[music fades]
[Young Gaspar] Kirana's gone, Babaji.
[sobs]
How could she just leave like that without saying goodbye?
[sobs]
- [distant horn blows] - [seagulls crying]
If you'd texted me, I would've picked you up.
Why would I?
I can take care of myself.
Yeah.
I'm starting to see that.
I'm not just gonna sit by and watch you plan your own death.
Death could come at any time.
Why would I bother planning it?
[gentle music resumes]
[rock music playing on the radio]
[Bu Tati] What do you want?
The office is closed. It's my day off.
Hey. I'm here to see Doctor Hartati Dibyo.
His name is Ali bin Usam
bin Yasser al-Kindi.
Except everyone knows him as "Wan Ali."
He married my little sister Maimunah years ago.
You could say that Maimunah is the only family I have left.
But we had a falling out.
I didn't approve of their marriage
and she resented me for telling her what I thought.
But I really don't get it.
I mean, how could she love a man like that?
[suspenseful music]
Luckily,
she hasn't completely abandoned me
and these days she's kind enough to let me stay here.
Back when Bachtiar S. Abdillah, my husband, passed away,
he left me with a mountain of debt.
I have no idea how he could end up owing so much money.
Maybe it was because of his Facebook friend.
Not long before he died,
my husband had a meeting with that friend.
Then, I lost everything.
Wan Ali and his family used to live in this house.
THE GREAT IMPACT OF END DAYS
Someone powerful gave him this place to manage.
That's why, when I lost my house, they could let me stay here for free.
I just need to pay for electricity and water.
- There are other expenses sometimes... - [clears throat]
Can I ask you why you have so many light bulbs?
Bachtiar S. Abdillah, he was my husband,
went to see his friend while I was out buying a light bulb.
I came home and he didn't.
I never saw him again.
But I go on buying light bulbs anyway.
Hoping
that when I get back...
he will be waiting here.
Lately, I also go out to buy light bulbs,
so that I can have an excuse to see my only son, Yadi.
Selfish bastard. Can't even bother to visit his mother.
Not too far from Wan Ali's jewelry store,
where my ungrateful son was given a job...
Yadi works at your brother-in-law's jewelry store, right?
Yes.
- Didn't I mention that? - No.
Okay, so what have I told you already?
You were saying that Wan Ali lived in this house before.
Yeah.
Wan Ali and his family lived here before me.
Someone powerful gave him this place to manage.
I told you that, didn't I?
You did.
I'll be honest,
I can't stand interruptions.
If you cut me off,
I lose my train of thought and have to start over.
Do Wan Ali and Maimunah have kids?
They did.
A girl named Kirana.
What happened to her?
Don't be rushing my story.
I can only tell what happened in order.
So where did I leave off?
[sighs]
You were saying Wan Ali lived in this house before you.
Yeah.
Wan Ali and his family used to live in this house.
Someone powerful gave him this place to manage.
[high-pitched ringing]
And that's why I can live here... [voices fade]

NO MYSTERY IN THE EMPTY HOUSE BY ARTHUR HARAHAP
Hello. I'm Kirana.
[song continues]
[siren blaring]
[song fades]
[dramatic music]
[woman] Welcome to Wan Ali's Jewelry.
We have beautiful pieces to fit every need.
You wanna rob us?
You better back up.
Huh? Otherwise, I'll have to shoot you.
This isn't an umbrella, it's a lethal weapon.
It'll spray your guts to kingdom come.
Shut up, idiot.
Honey, I got this.
Anyone threatens you, I'll blow their brains out.
- Not with this cheap umbrella, you don't. - Shh...
Is there a thief in my store?
Yes! This guy!
[Gaspar] Wan Ali.
That's me, do we know each other?
We've met before. It was years ago.
But who hasn't heard of Wan Ali?
Your reputation is gold from here to Madagascar.
Then you know there's no way in hell you're taking any of my gold for free.
I'm not here to take. I'm here to buy.
I need a wedding ring and I know you'll have what I'm after.
Even if no one really believes in marriage these days.
He wants to buy a wedding ring, and you call him a robber.
Because he looks like one.
Not like someone who could commit to the sacred act of marriage.
What kind of ring are you looking for?
The shiniest one.
Cash?
Cash.
But I don't want it in just an ordinary box.
- What kind of box do you want? - Black.
Maybe you're not a robber, but asking for a black box is messed up.
Black is for darkness.
You see our jewelry boxes only come in red.
We used to have blue, but we ran out.
That's a black box right there.
[dramatic music]
I don't care how much you spend, your ring won't need a box that size.
Unless you're actually going to marry a giant. Or a djinn.
Or an elephant.
But I never said who the ring was for.
- Well, forget about it. It's not for sale. - Oh.
Then the deal is off.
Because you don't want a red box?
[music fades]
[Gaspar] In the year 2025, when Plague Number 36 spread,
some people close to the government got the vaccine against it.
Supply was limited.
The vaccine was very effective against the plague,
but it had serious side effects.
In every single recipient.
This is one of them.
Kurawa, an ex-intelligence officer
who shared information about the location of the mass graves.
Told me this guy has close ties with government agencies.
He runs an organ trafficking network, and it's highly likely
that he's heavily involved in the operations
that National Security launched to attempt to clean up their mess in recent years.
I thought those were just rumors.
I asked Kurawa to stick around last night
so I could ask him about some of those rumors.
But he was dead when I got there.
The National Guard killed him.
I found that sample in his hand.
[Agnes] I'm game for doing all of this crazy-ass stuff, okay?
Robbery, revealing our nation's crimes,
or ripping out a sociopath's eyes if I have to.
[dishes clinking]
But I have one condition.
If you die in the next 24 hours, I get to take care of Cortazar.
I never asked you to come.
You offered to pick me up, didn't you?
Consider me a willing volunteer.
And your bike's gonna need a keeper if you punch your ticket.
- The cheetah's spirit doesn't scare you? - That's why I want it.
What's your next move? Clock's ticking.
[uptempo music]
My name is Gaspar.
My heart is on the right side.
I will die in 24 hours.
But before that, I want my revenge.
- [timer beeps] - [loud heartbeat]
- [door opens] - [footsteps]
Bastard! [grunts]
BASTARD GUY
I want you guys to take part.
I have less than 24 hours to live.
Cortazar will be hers.
This is your only chance to change the course of your lives.
Don't try to butter us up with some bullshit about dying tomorrow.
We're not getting involved.
This is just another fantasy story you got from those crazy books you read.
A tiny centipede, a black box, Cortazar.
You make stuff up to try to impress the people around you.
I agree that admiration can often be a trap.
[Njet] But, Kik...
Cortazar is possessed by a cheetah spirit.
The bike's first owner made a pact with the spirit world.
He gave his thumb as a sacrifice.
You should ask him to tell you about the street racer.
If that doesn't do it, ask about the legendary thief
that died when my bike ran over him.
The name you chose and where it came from is what gets me.
- Giulio Cortazar. - Julio.
- Julio Cortazar. He... - That's enough!
Three months ago, you walked out.
Because you said I'd be better off with Njet.
And you come waltzing in here with your new sidekick
and want us to rob a jewelry store.
All for this obsession you've had since you were a kid.
Kirana was sold.
Wan Ali sold his own daughter.
How do you know that?
I investigated it.
She disappeared 23 years ago.
-People could tell you anything -Information is my job.
You know I've always been a detective.
A dreamer's what you are.
Everybody knows that the story of Achal and the black box
are just improvised Vaishnavism legends
that your dear old Babaji told you to get your mind off your parents.
They're not true.
You've spent your life living in a children's fairy tale.
Doubt all you want.
All I'm telling you is that what I'm about to do
will change your miserable lives.
You'll be able to have a family,
put real food in their bellies, cooked on a real stove.
I'm going after him.
Come to this address before 3:00 if you change your minds.
[classical piano music]
[Agnes] Let me get this straight.
You left Kik and told her to go out with Njet?
You're a bastard.
[Gaspar] Everyone is born a bastard.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is delusional.
[Agnes] She must've thought I was your new girl.
[Gaspar] I know.
It's for her own good.
[Agnes] I'm sure you know that when you tell someone,
"It's for your own good,"
it's pretty much the crappiest reason you can give for leaving.
I try to choose the words that are
least likely to hurt the person on the other end.
Your fail rate's high.
There was a period in my life
where I didn't speak to anyone at all for that exact reason.
But it didn't help much.
Words and silence seem to do equal damage.
Does Kik know about your heart?
So you're probably gonna break hers again.
Maybe.
So are we going after the black box to steal from him?
Or to avenge the sale of his daughter?
All of it.
Five, six, seven and eight.
One, two, three, four...
- [Kirana] And that's... - [Young Kik] Gaspar.
And he's a good...
Detective.
Yes. I talked to him earlier.
[Kirana] Yeah! Gaspar is a detective.
Sometimes I help him collect evidence.
What's he looking for?
He's looking for the Campa Tiger.
Rawr! [giggles]
- Come on! - Okay.
[Kirana] Gaspar!
[piano music continues]
- [camera beeps] - [shutter clicks]
[camera beeps]
[camera shutter clicks]
Seven and eight. One, two, three, four, five...
Kik...
If they come here,
tell them that I'm not here.
Or they'll take me forever.
[piano music continues]
If I'd gone with Gaspar everything would be fine now.
[piano music continues]
[whines]
[Gaspar sobs]
[dance students chatter]
[music fades]
Maybe she corroborated your suspicions,
but are you sure you wanna bring someone along
who's just gonna slow you down?
[dramatic music]
She moves fine for someone her age.
[Bu Tati] I despise Wan Ali.
He's already taken
Maimunah and Yadi...
Now both of them are so rude to me.
But that's not reason enough to rob his jewelry store.
He has done right by me.
I could have been on the street.
But he took me in.
After Bachtiar S. Abdillah died
and left me with a mountain of debt.
Have I told you all this already?
You have. But you see...
Um...
May I?
Bachtiar S. Abdillah, your husband, did not leave you any debts.
He also did not kill himself.
Ridiculous.
This is a copy of your husband's death certificate.
[suspenseful music]
[Gaspar] Twenty-three years ago,
Bachtiar S. Abdillah and Wan Ali started an antique business.
Bachtiar S. Abdillah's financials were fine,
but Wan Ali had just had a crisis.
One day, Bachtiar S. Abdillah made a big mistake
by showing Wan Ali his most prized possession.
[suspenseful music continues]
You actually believe this box is magical?
Oh, it's more than that, my friend. So much more.
Legend has it that this box holds all the knowledge of this earth.
And some also say it can bring great fortune.
It even has the power to hold our most precious treasure.
And I can attest to it.
In the past year,
fortune has poured down upon me harder than rain.
[music continues]
[man] How did you know where to find me?
Mrs. Tati gave me your address.
She said you two used to be close.
But she thought you were dead.
[chuckles]
Everyone in my family thought so too.
[sighs]
Wan Ali will stop at nothing to get what he wants, I can tell you that.
[man] He even killed Bachtiar S. Abdillah,
the man who helped him out of bankruptcy.
[dramatic music intensifies]
He also helped himself to one of my kidneys
and took my eyesight for good measure.
And to top it all off...
he made sure that everyone thought that I was out of my mind.
[laughs]
[Gaspar] Wan Ali made everything up.
He set it up to make you believe that your husband killed himself
after meeting with his Facebook friend.
Wan Ali even stole all of Bachtiar S. Abdillah's fortune.
And pretended that he had left you behind with a mountain of debt.
He paid off one of the hospital physicians
- to write a... - [high-pitched ringing]
[grunts]
- [heart beating] - [high-pitched ringing]
...a phony death certificate indicating suicide.
[heartbeat fades]
[dramatic music resumes]
I'll ask Yadi to join us.
He has to know what that bastard did.
- [dramatic music] - [timer beeps]
Don't you have a job you have to get to?
How's it going? You're back.
Yeah.
You gonna buy that ring?
No. I came back, but not to buy a ring from your boss. That's for sure.
Why not?
I need a good sale.
My commissions have been pretty scarce for me and my wife.
Well...
I don't really understand it.
We barely get any customers coming in the store.
I don't know why he keeps it open.
Except for living there,
he doesn't have any reason to keep the business.
I ask myself
if Wan Ali hasn't shut the place down
just so Nurida and I still have a place to work.
Looking out for us.
[plastic bottle crinkles]
What kind of tea is this?
XD-11.
Even tea got complicated.
Yeah. It's making my head feel a lot lighter, though.
- [chuckles] - Hm.
Are you alone?
Yeah. Nurida said she'd come after lunch.
- Wan Ali? - He's not here.
Where is he?
You gonna rob us after all?
I wanna know where he is. Answer the questions I ask you.
What are you, a detective or something? Or...
[suspenseful music]
[Wan Ali] That contains 1,000 tourist destinations worldwide.
It's the latest version.
When you put that on, you can travel anywhere in the world you want. Hm.
Yadi's too poor to ever buy me a gift like this.
He's so dumb.
And weak.
[chuckles]
[suspenseful music continues]
[dishes clinking]
[door closes]
[music intensifies]
I have to avenge my wife's honor.
You can't just go picking a fight with your boss.
There's nothing you can do now.
Best case scenario, Nurida might ditch you for that old geezer.
Wan Ali is mocking you.
He's using your poverty to disrespect the both of you.
I know how to hurt him.
[knock at door]
Your time's up.
["Firasat" by Sundancer playing]
[man] We bought a boat!
This place is done for.
It's been a pleasure doing business with you.
GASOLINE IS GOLD
[Yadi] I knew you intended to rob us from the start.
[Gaspar] All of you will rob him. I just want to get my revenge.
All? Who else is in?
[engine whirring]
[Kik] Njet.
I'm thinking it might be smart
-to go in with Gaspar -Me too.
So why didn't you say anything when he was here?
Because it's your call.
But if we stay, we're doomed.
Pretty soon there won't be any gas left. And I wanna build a real life with you.
Have our own family, feed our children real food.
- You're using his words now? - Those are my words.
He was only repeating them.
Kik.
[Agnes] So you guys changed your minds?
He deserves what's coming to him.
[song continues]
If this is about fixing my relationship with my mother,
I'd rather just go back to the store.
We've never gotten along.
She's only ever thought that I was a no-good lazy child.
I know exactly how parents who don't love their kids behave.
Your mother doesn't even come close.
You act like a no-good spoiled child.
Time to grow up. Or you might regret it.
This might be your only chance to convince your wife not to leave you.
Let's go.
[Bu Tati] Spawn of the devil.
- Whoa! - Take it easy, Granny.
Who the hell are you?
And don't call me Granny.
Now do me a favor. Check if this thing still works?
Here. Take two bullets.
If it does, I will blow this kid's ungrateful head off.
- [loud heartbeat] - [timer beeping]
I don't think this plan is perfect, but it's good enough.
Good move recruiting my mother.
She's died before.
So if things go south, and we end up dying instead of getting revenge,
she can be our guide in the spirit world.
Spawn of the devil.
Those are the first words she said to me after she found out my father died.
You've always been a devil child.
Anyway, I think it's the best we can do
with the time we've got.
Sometimes good enough has to be good enough.
And like you said, it's the best I can do with the time I've got, Njet.
You want me to heat up some water? I can make a pot of tea for all of you.
[Yadi] We don't need any tea right now.
What we need is to be asking ourselves is if we break into that store,
what makes us better than Wan Ali?
I have to say that the devil child is right for once.
Taking what is not ours is a sin.
Nothing about this has anything to do with sin or right and wrong.
We don't talk about morals when it comes to people like Wan Ali.
The point of this has been clear from the start.
I want revenge.
And all of you are too poor not to get on board.
We can't argue that. And you can't argue
that taking what is not yours is still a sin.
And calling your own child a devil is a sin too.
He's got you there.
But he really is the spawn of the devil.
This is your only chance to make Wan Ali pay for what he did to you.
No more talking about right and wrong.
And you can't tell me that you've never thought about committing some petty crime
but were too afraid that you might get caught?
If no one has any more questions,
let's think of aliases for Mrs. Tati and Yadi.
[Njet] Gaspar.
I know how to turn this business from just a good enough plan to a perfect one.
["Tanda Kutip" by Mustache and Beard playing]
[Njet] I adjusted the barrel.
The effective range is now up to 100 meters.
I added a telescope.
[telephone rings]
[man] We need you to deliver the package immediately.
Transaction has been approved.
[Wan Ali] Hey, hobo! Eat this!
Hold on.
We don't move until he starts to move.
[song fades]
I've thought a lot about what you said about wanting to build a future with Kik.
Yeah. It makes me feel at peace.
Being happy when all you know is poverty is hard to imagine.
But now I have hope.
Because she's in my life.
Hope is good.
Happiness is such a tricky concept.
Never mind throwing poverty on top.
[Gaspar] It's all right as long as you and Kik
don't eat dry batteries to fill your bellies.
That's why I asked you to join me.
[grunts]
If I die tonight,
you should go to the boat where I live.
There's enough fuel stashed there for you two to get far from here.
Do you really only have 24 hours?
- Are you in? - I'm thinking about it.
You're insane.
If you don't actually die tomorrow, Gaspar, what then?
What doesn't kill me tomorrow will kill me the day after.

[somber piano music]
[Agnes] I get why you wanna do this before you die.
It's not the thought of dying that's driving you.
It's guilt.
What you want is redemption, not revenge.
When someone you love dies...
life becomes a convex mirror we look into.
For those left behind still alive,
it's right in front of your nose
and it will show a distorted version of you.
Having a good memory before dying in this day and age can be painful.
Or maybe it's cause for celebration.
Sometimes, I imagine
that I'll celebrate my own death facing it head-on.
Never met someone so happy to dance on his own grave.
I wanna race the spirit.
Then just be gone.
[cigarette crackles]
Sounds dramatic.
["Firasat" by Sundancer playing]
[ticking]
This is for you.
I want you to live a long life.
So that you can feel all of the pain that I have felt.
Now you sound like a real family.
[song continues]
- [loud heartbeat] - [timer beeps]
My name is Gaspar, I'm 34 years old.
My heart is on the right side.
I will die in a few hours.
Before I die, the gang and I will rob Wan Ali's store.
[Gaspar] The key?
Go.
[song fades]
[Bu Tati] What's there to steal?
It's empty.
[Gaspar] Where is everything?
Inside the safe.
Is the door locked?
[Gaspar] Open it.
[loud heartbeat sound]
[Wan Ali] Tati? Yadi?
[Bu Tati] I'm not Tati. I'm Pingi.
[Yadi] I'm Pongo.
[chuckles]
[Wan Ali] What are you doing here?
[Kik] Gaspar, you bastard!
Gaspar has a plan. Gaspar has a plan. Gaspar has a plan.
[heart beating]
Gaspar doesn't have a plan!
[shouts] Out! Now!
- [Gaspar] Quickly! Come on! - Hey!
What the hell, Gaspar! We got nothing!
[dramatic music]
[tires screech]
Did you see that? I pointed a gun right at that evil man.
- [Bu Tati] Did you see the bastard's face? - [Yadi] But they're chasing us now.
It's so fun!
[music continues]
[gunshot]
[tires screech]
[horn honks]
Shit!
[car sputters]
[laughs]
Oh fuck!
[tires screech]
[somber piano music]
[steam hisses]
[Kirana] Gaspar! I found the tiny centipede.
I found it for you.
I always believe everything you say,
so I tried to find it.
Remember, Gaspar.
If I disappear, you have to find me.
If it takes longer than you thought,
you can take a break for a while.
But you can't stop looking until you find me.
Promise?
[music fades]
[waves crashing gently]
[Gaspar] What Kik said was right.
It's all just my stupid obsession, and it makes others suffer.
[Agnes] You have to finish what you started.
I will go there alone.
That wasn't the deal.
["Bangku Taman" by Mustache and Beard playing]
- [timer beeps] - [loud heart beat]
[Agnes] You sure you'll die today?
[Gaspar] No one expected me to live this long.
Today's as good a day as any.
[tires screeching]
[engines rev]
[tires screech]
[gasps]
Get!
[dramatic music]
Who the hell hired you?
Huh?
If you really want a wedding ring, friend, I can give you a good deal.
We both know it's not about the damn jewels.
[Agnes] Guys!
They're the ones you want.
They use their power to make us all poor.
Make them pay for all your suffering!
[clamoring]
You sold your daughter.
You killed her!
[clamoring]
[punches landing]
[groans]
[grunts]
- [grunts] - [heart beating]
You...
You took my best friend away from me.
[grunts]
[loud heartbeats]
[laughs]
Ah!
You're that loser who followed her around.
[Wan Ali laughs]
The fragile little boy raised by an old man.
[laughs]
[heartbeat continues]
[laughing]
Tell me what the hell happened to Kirana.
[cries out]
Fucker!
[Gaspar grunts]
[shouts] You killed her!
[groans]
[mournful music]

[screams]
[Wan Ali grunts]

["Come Sweet Death" by Johan Sebastian Bach playing]
[choral music continues]
[music continues]
[choral music fades]
[Gaspar] Remember.
Nothing is more dangerous than a story
that forces you to believe that good can defeat evil.
[heart beating]
Such stories will make you stupid and ignorant.
Good people do bad things...
using the greater good to excuse their actions
and being justified for it.
[high-pitched ringing]
We have lived long enough in despair.
Forced to witness the incessant debate about good and evil
without ever figuring out how to end it.
Secretly accepting the reality that the world has become too desolate
and frightening.
[gentle classical piano]
Anyone would be led to believe that this is the end of humanity.
[piano music continues]
Hope is a rare commodity that must be claimed.
Even though you can't force it,
there's nothing wrong with believing again.
There's always a second chance on this Earth.
Because love does exist,
and so can happiness.
[classical piano continues]
