Language barrier. to Polanski, “bail” is only a verb.

If you allowed him to be free on bail, would you want him to remain in your country?

By the way, it's good to see we have as much drag with the Swiss as we had with the International Olympic Committee.

I hope they set the bail amount high because they are gonna keep it! This will, however, keep him out of Switzerland (not that he cares...)

That’s the last you’ll see of him.

He’s on the run.

A Swiss court has authorized the release of Roman Polanski on bail of $4.5 million, but the Hollywood director will be required to remain under house arrest and electronic monitoring at his Swiss chalet.
