I was wondering if you have a chance if you could translate those scenes in which Menno explains to Lucas the violence in his past. I believe these where the bedroom scene after Menno nearly hit Lcas but stops short. Thank you in advance for your time.
So in this link you will find the most important clips of the story:
www.rtl.nl/soaps/gtst/home/#verhaal/Menno kan het niet meer aan
its the clip that's called "Menno kan de waarheid niet meer verzwijgen" (Menno cant hide the truth any longer)
L: good morning,
M what's that smell
L: I wanted to bake an egg,
M: no thanks I'll have a cracker
L: I m such a bad cook, maybe I should boil them but than for how long
L: what's it about?
M: Are we people now that read each others mail without asking?
L: As if I didn't know you're fired, because of me. That is my fault. And what does ignominious dismissal mean?
M: that i won't get social benifits and can't work for police anymore. I lied to them, and they are not happy about that
L: You said your glove was mine, wow what a shocking lie
M: it was more than that Lucas
L: Yes that was my fault, but what did you do? And what did I read about another incident?
M: do you want a cracker too?
L: Is this about Nina's bag when Mike was killed? Did you keep things from me than?
M: Lucas, let it go
L: Honey, you're fired and that is my fault, but I will personaly make sure it will be a honorary discharge
M: Stay out of it, I don't want you to
L: Inspector Green should know you wouldn't do this
M: Lucas you'll stay here, and you'll have breakfast with me
L: otherwise we'll sue them. you are punished too servere
M: You stay here
L: I only wanted...
M: I know, and that is sweet of you
L: I dont want this
M; me neither.
M: I dont want you to talk with Green okay
L: you're afraid I'll make things worse
M: No, I
L: Is there something I can't know? about the other incident? Menno, you keep something from me. We cant continue like this, it is all complicated enough, and now you're keeping things from me.
M: okay I didnt tell you because I thought it didn't matter. I wanted it to not matter. And when things went wrong, I didnt dare to tell anymore.
M: My movement to Meerdijk wasn't a coincidence, something had happened.
L: yes you met me
M: off course but I mean the first time. At my former job, I had to leave, there was a collegue. He did things, lied, blamed me for things he did. It was an asshole. I hit him in the face, broken nose, lost a tooth. And in highschool I also hit a guy. If I get frustrated enough I loose control.
L: so this has been an issue much longer. And you didn't think I should know?
M: Not when we met, I thought..
L yes you thought
M: I thought everybody might hit someone in highschool and that collegue simply was an asshole. Which doesnt mean that you... Can you please come and sit with me for a moment?
L: Have you ever hit a boyfriend before?
M No, never. That's why I thought i didnt need to tell you. Only Roel knows.
L: Why?
M: Our father couldnt keep his hands to him either
L You're father? but he is so
M: It happened when we were small. Stress at his work, two kids, my mother that wanted more help from him. I remember getting out of bed because I heard him screaming, I heard a smack. When I came downstairs I saw my mother on the floor crying, my father was on the other side of the room, he jelled I had to get back upstairs. And that 's why I dont understand. I hate it so much.
L: did it happen more often?
M: if my mother said something wrong
L: did he hit you as well?
M: sometimes a slap
L: that means yes
M: that's why I knew from 9 years old that I wanted to work for police. I hadnt been able to protect my mother. I wanted to protect other people. Stop people like my father. And now am I .. myself.
L: all the time I thought it was me. That you hit me because I did something wrong, or said something wrong, or didnt support you enough
M: that isn't it. it is not you. it is me
L: How could you not have told me. After all that has happened
M: I dont want to be like this. please help me. For my father it also stopped. so that is possible. I am not a violent person. I can control this, really. If you help me
L how?
M: I dont know, but together we can..
L: I dont know if I can help you. I dont know if I still want to know you
