I just watched Leon the Professional, and seriously...what?

There's a part in the movie where the little girl tells the hotel manager that her and Leon are lovers.

When I saw this I thought he was in deep shit.

He comes back to the hotel room and gets a knock at the door. Thinking it was the police, I was really into what was gonna happen.

It was the hotel manager and two janitors. He said "Can we have a word with you?"

Then it cuts to Leon and Matilda walking down the street.

All I could think of was...Really?

That's how you handled the situation?

Upstairs there's a fully grown Italian immigrant having sex with a 12 year old girl and you go..."Hey you. Take that somewhere else."

Is this how they handled pedophiles in the 90s?

It's no wonder pedophilia is such a big story now.

They finally decided to do more than just move them to other hotels.

 

Thing is, you don' t know what happened between those scenes.
I assume it went something like :

- Sleeping with ... what the **** are you talking about ?
- She said so herself, should I call the police to clear that up ?
- That won' t be necessary. *headbutt*
