"You should come see us sometime, doctor!" "Would you lend me two hundred?" "Ok, sure." "It's all drenched." "Haven't you seen it yet?" "I can take you for a ride." "That's a nice shirt." "You like it?" "We can make a deal." "What do you want for it?" "That you won't get scared of the height." "Where are you?" "I can see you..." "What is it?" "Look, they've drowned." "Here you are, two tickets?" "Here." "That'll be 6 crowns." "One at a time, come on..." "Stop pushing, please!" "One for you, sir?" "That's four crowns." "The number will be drawn right away!" "Try your luck!" "The last family trip to space!" "You shouldn't have done that." "Now it's useless." "Never mind." "This one will win." " What number have you got?" " I forgot." "All right, everybody, this is the last bonus flight!" "And the winning number is..." "Two - eight - nine - zero!" "Where is our winner?" "There's none!" "Because 2890 is here." "Oh, what a pity." " What was the number?" " 2890." "Well, I've got a two..." "And an eight..." " Go on!" " And I have a nine..." "Tell me you've got a zero!" "I sure have!" "We've won!" "Are you also a painter?" "I'm trying a little." "And does it make you happy?" "It does, for the moment." "That may pass, of course." "And then?" "Then I'll marry a noodle like you to support me." "So you'll marry me?" "I don't know..." "if you're the noodle it takes." "It's strange." "Seems like all your dreams come true." "I was born under a lucky star." "I get everything I want." "You must be kidding." " I'm not." " Really?" "I wouldn't put up with it otherwise." "Look - there's a balloon!" "Have a nice day." "See you." "Your Papa's a rogue." "He really thinks I'm his wife."

" Martha, Jane." " And a kiss?" " Of course." "One more." "Now you two." "Better not." "I'm too shy." "What do you mean?" "You must be kidding." "I might not give that impression but I am." "All right, we go first." " How old are you?" " One more kiss." "Well?" "Come on." "Do something." "Like what?" "You see..." "I will marry him." "Even now, when I hear his voice I feel married already." "Come on, major." "Marcel, turn over and go to sleep." "Good night." "Go to sleep, son." "I'll tell you what you are." "An airhead, that's what." "All you know is showing off." "Here you go, yummy." "Am I right?" "I'm not army brass, I'm a pilot." "Come on, I know you guys." "Girls, here I am..." "Hi, old man." "I like you." "Just my type, come here." "Dad, stop that!" "Can't you speak Slovak any more?" "Look at Andrew." "His Slovak is pure gold!" "And his wife is Czech." "I don't care about his wife." "It's not funny." "She left him." "So what." "I don't care." "Don't talk nonsense!" "Andrew is a man, get it?" "And a man needs a woman." "What about me?" "I'm not a man?" "Let me tell you something." "What do you see in the girl?" "She's as thin as a rake." "And why does he find her attractive, huh?" "Ask him." "He's keeping seats for us." " I can't let you in." " Why?" "The lady perhaps, but you're not dressed properly." "Excuse me, I'm a major." "Anybody could say that." "You should be wearing a suit and tie." "Andrew, look, there he is." "Oh, boy." "Dad, look at you." "Here we are, General." "General, sir, we're coming to you." "He's got my hat." "Dad, take off the hat!" " He doesn't even know you." " Go and bring him here." "Go somewhere else." "Hey, pussy cat, come here." "You know me." "I'm alone." "Come on, we'll go dancing." "What's going on?" " Let's dance, come on!" " Leave me alone!" "Leave her alone." "Piss off!" "You boor." "Don't touch me!" "Easy, chump, or I'll sock you on the jaw." "Hey, wait!" "Where are you going?" "Andrew, don't." "I'll wash your dirty mouth." "You'll be sorry." "You call me your friend?" "Andrew, don't." "You're gonna kill him." "Help!" "They killed me!" "Murderers!" "Andrew, for God's sake, let's go." "Maybe I love you." "What should we do about that?" "If you knew what I was like before, and now..." "I thought we'd sleep together." "But it's better like this." " To me, it's like a miracle." " A miracle?" "I didn't believe in miracles any more." "You're so sweet." "So different from George." "Actually, I'm not sure if I love you." "Jane, ask me to stay." "Ask me to leave everything, to stay here with you." "I'll do anything." "But you have to want it." " Is she pretty?" " Who?" " Your wife." " Yes, she is." "And what about me?" "Will I see you again?" "This is my address." "No, Andrew, don't." " Did you tell her to come in the morning?" " She'll come." "The train leaves in an hour." " I told her morning." " Morning lasts until noon." " What are you looking for?" " A towel." " It's time to go." " Oh, he spoke." "You're just like George." "Leaving without a word..." " With a girl." " With or without a girl..." "So what?" "Now you're preaching like Jesus." "and you left us standing at the gate." "So what?" "Shut up!" "It's my turn now." "Are you blushing with shame?" "He's teaching you a lesson!" " You back out!" " They're coming." "Martha seems a bit old for you, don't you think?" "Yes, she is." "So what?" "Do you wanna marry her?" "I won't marry some skinny girl." " Morning." " Go to Dad." " You sure took your time." " What's wrong?" " You're late." " Have you been drinking?" "Wanna check my breath?" "Come on, let me in, will you?" "So you can drink up all our booze?" "Watch your tongue!" "I'm not a little child." "No, you're not!" "Martha, wait!" "Here." "Bye!" "Thanks!" "That was a little test." "Come soon, both of you." "You hear me, George?" "Bye-bye, Daddy!" "See you soon." "She's running with us." " Are you angry?" " Me?" "What is it with Viera?" " What?" " Father dropped some hints..." " Forget it." " What happened?" "She left me." "Went to her mother, maybe." "I don't know." "Before leaving, she got me life insurance." "The premium is 60 thousand." "That's a lot of money." "Nothing in for me?" "I'm your brother." "Do it yourself." "She left me but she'd cared for me." "Don't laugh." "She was worried about losing me." "I see that." "You've always been a skirt chaser." "Come on, George." "I'm serious." "She couldn't go on worrying." "I understand." "Sometimes things happened..." "Not to me, so far." "Thank God." "At the beginning I believed I was born under a lucky star..." "I thought nothing could harm me." "Now I fly only when I have to." "And when I have to, I can't." "Of course I do fly but it's a duty, not my choice." "It's not because I want to." "I can't but I have to..." "You're talking like Dad." "It's in the family." "Our whole family is nuts." "I wonder when it'll hit me too." "Never mind." "Your only fear was you'd get kicked out of school." "But I live in fear every day." "Every hour, every minute." "A day may come when there is nothing left of me!" "There were days I enjoyed flying." "Now my hands are shaking." "See?" "Like this!" "I know what you think." "That I'm a dumb officer." "And I never understood your stupid paintings." "I've never told you that." "I wanted to fly." "You did not." "Or maybe you did, but you were too scared." "Not man enough." "I know I am!" "I'll tell you what: we're in the same boat." "You understand what we do and why." "But are we the same as we were before?" "!" "I'm a man of principles." "I want all or nothing." "Yes, I could go herding cows and keep my air force medals in a shoe box with a photograph of an old airplane." "But I want no compromise!" "And people will say:" "What did he get in the plane for anyway?" "You left your home to become a painter." "Could you give up painting now?" "Why?" "There's no reason why I couldn't paint." "You can't fly so give it up." "I've given up some ideals, too." "And I'm not bawling." "You think I am?" "Hell, no." "Last night you showed some skill, man." "But you won't make it to an astronaut any more." "I couldn't start all over again." "Never." "What for anyway?" "Slap his ass." "Can't do it, huh?" "Seems like you lost all your sense of humour." "It's the prime of life." "Nothing is the way we expected." "Things shifted in different ways." "The prime of life, pal, means... you've reached the peak... and from now on it's only downhill." "Either you break your neck or you keep walking down a smooth valley." "To hell with all that." "It's the beer talking..." "It's all right if you sense fear." "It makes you feel more human." "Eventually you're going to like women and men and children." "When I go home to collect Marcel you should come along." "It's lovely at home." "We'll brew some pear brandy and it'll give us some vision." "You're right." "It's beautiful at home." " Waiter!" " Long live Andrew!" " And George." " Here's to them!" "Would you like to get the bill, gentlemen?" "Count the beers we had." "Twenty-five!" "I'm sorry." "Martha, leave me alone." "You'd better forget about me." "If only you got really angry..." "Now I'm the asshole." "And I feel sorry." "Is it a troubled love-affair?" "I didn't want to go mad." "Don't worry about me." "What is it, Martha?" "Are you crying?" "Let me see..." "You are crying..." "What's wrong?" "Are you sick?" " I can hear you!" " It's me, gran." "Look at the mess." "Look at it." "I'll fix it for you, all right?" "Oh, no..." "I'm sweeping the chimney." "Getting dizzy is the worst of all." "Won't Martha come?" "It's the pills she gave me." "They make me feel even worse." "They were meant for me, I guess." "Look at the little beasts." "And how they enjoy it." " You're so kind." " Nonsense." " Are you sleeping with her?" " With whom?" "No." "She doesn't want me." " Where are you going?" " Apartment hunting." "Once they tear down the house I'll be homeless." " You'll move in with me." " Why?" "Isn't that what you wanted?" "When we made love for the first time, you know what that was like?" "Wow that was something!" "But now you take your shirt off and my hands go shaking." "Like this!" "You're such a bastard..." "What did I expect?" "With you, I'd end up in a nuthouse." "Without you, I'll starve to death." "But on my own." "What illusions you have!" " lllusions?" " Yeah." "I wanna go out into the world." "All alone." "On my own." "On all fours." "Yes." "Your faithful dog." "Come here." "Come to me." "I love you." "I know." "It's not your fault." "It's me." "I'm no more than a slut." "Ready, steady, go!" "Which hand was it?" " I didn't knock." " Didn't you?" "I thought you were knocking." "Martha is in there." "Oh my, I'm gonna go crazy..." " What is it?" " I'm gonna die..." "Then I'll die too." " Come on." " Wait, I can't catch my breath." "The light's on." " Hello." "Mrs. Zemanova?" " What do you want?" "At the housing department they said..." " I have no room!" " But..." "Spare my nerves, will you?" "Let me close the door!" "You let go of my foot!" "Go away!" "Let go of my foot!" "Now I've got a flat and can't leave." "Let me see." "Is anybody there?" "Someone's coming." "You're soaked." "Are you all right?" "Jesus, what have I done?" "!" "Go away!" "It's my fault." "Does it hurt?" "I really didn't want to hurt you." "I'm so sorry." "I'm such an idiot." "I don't know why I do these things." "Would you just go, please?" "But you must understand." "I love you!" "No, you don't." "Oh boy, I'm such a clown." "That can't fool you, for Christ's sake." "You love me, not him!" "That's not true." "Yes, you do, you do!" " Don't touch me!" " I know you do!" "Leave me alone!" "Why don't we admit it, why do we act like idiots?" "!" "Leave me alone." "You shouldn't want me." "It would be a huge mistake..." " Here, sew it on." " Can't you hear me...?" "You almost killed me." "That's not what we were talking about." "Mr. Pelnar mentioned it but I don't know you." " Are you familiar with this style?" " Why, of course." "I believe you but I'm not sure you can do it." " The young lady wants to paint, too?" " No." "I'll get a painting..." "We'll give it a try." "You'll restore it." "Then we'll make a deal, okay?" "I'll be right back." "What a clown." "But he's got a studio for you." "And for the flat..." "So he wants to be my mercenary!" "You're working your way down the ladder, Maestro." "Stop that crap!" "I'm just saying what you said." "You'll be a painter on probation." "Though you are gifted and quite ambitious, as the professors say." "I could send him to hell." "My words!" "Come on, let's get out of here." "But I have to start somehow to..." " ... earn a living." " Earn a living, yes." "I have to earn my living!" "Sure, Maestro, you have to." "What if I'm doing all this just so that I can be with you." "I won't go further." "I'm such a fool." "I am making my own life difficult." "But so are you." "When it gets real you back out." "I am what I am." "I should have slept with him." "It would have been quite natural, just like with you." "We were attracted to each other." "If we'd have made love, it would have been pure... and I would have stopped thinking about it." "I'm listening." "I think what I feel for Andrew is love." "The kind of love I've always thought was a passing fancy." "Yeah." "So incredible, heavenly." "Maybe I'm just trying to convince myself..." "But I keep thinking about him." "And it makes me sad." "And it makes me mad at times." "You won't help me." "You can't help anyone." "Kiss me." "You're not a silly goose, You're a swan." "A silly white bird with a long white neck." "We're not good at it any more." "So you say I'd take the highway." "Yeah, it's safer." "There are several detours on the old road." "It'd take you hours to get there, especially when you're not a local." "Actually, I'm going home after a long time." " On vacation?" " No, I'm seeing my son." "Oh, I see." "Is he a pilot, too?" "I'd better kill him!" "Nobody can figure it out." "I've been living here for 40 years and now..." "You'll move to a better place." "Come on, don't cry." "And my poor dogs!" " They won't get used to another place." " Sure they will." "Every house gets torn down one day." "You'll move to Martha's." "But what about me?" "!" "Have a rest and you'll feel better." "I always take a nap after lunch." "But today..." "And it's such a big house!" "Did you hear the crack?" "Yeah, it cracked, granny." "So this is the right way!" "You see, you are better now." "I'd be so happy any other time." "Take it easy." "Go to bed, have a rest, that'll help you." "Stay with him, don't worry about me." "If you knew how she makes it you'd lose your appetite." "It's nice." "80 minutes work on each square decimeter." "Damn it!" "You beast!" "Get lost or I'll kill you!" "What's wrong with you?" "Nothing seems to work." "Make love to me." "All right, strip down." "Come on!" "I didn't mean to offend you." " I'm sorry..." " I want you." "Come closer." "I'll go crazy without you." "I'll never have you again..." "Go to hell, you sick bastard!" "Damned fool, idiot." "A fat lazy chicken." "You'll lose all your teeth." "You'll be bold and old." "You hit the brakes at the curve but it doesn't help."
