" Who did this to you, Father?" " Sodom and Gomorrah, Cecilka." "Go and invite the villagers to the evening session." "God bless you, young man." "If there is anything you need you know where to come." "This is a new part-timer on the farm." "Show him the way, Cecilka!" " C'mon!" "Tha?" "s the way." " Thank you."

"Experimental, end-of-term paper on the milk yield of cows dependent on the environment." " I've been the chief of animal husbandry for eight years but I've never heard anything so daft!" " I've got it perfectly thought-out." "If you just let me test my method in practise, it will bring benefits not just to your cooperative, but to everyone." " Chairman, we can't afford any experiments, let alone where milk's concerned!" " We're expecting a delegation from the Regional Council, tha?" "s a big things, sonny!" " Two or three cows will do!" " You know something?" "Go and settle down, look around the village, try some of our cherries and come here tomorrow a sensible talk, how about it?" "Evi!" " Yes!" "Gee, who is he?" " He'll tell you all himself." "Look, go and put him up somewhere." "But, Evi, mind you're good to him!" " Where can I put him up if all the beds've been taken by those combined-harvester chaps!" " Evi, please!" " Really, Chairman." "Well, I'll..." "Okay then!" "Blimey." "A pack of Clea, as usual?" " No." "Look, have the people who came here on holiday last year arrived yet?" "No and they're not likely to come." "Dad said he was in prison and Mum wouldn't have her alone here for love or money." " Tell Mum then to taken in our new young part-timer for at least a few days, Mr..." "Wha?" "s your?" " Planicka." "Simon Planicka." " Yes, Simon Planicka."

"I'll give you an umbrella, Mother." "An umbrella and a baret!" "Right." "And mind you don't take it off!" "Like last time, there'd be a show-down, see?" " Oh no!" "Leave me alone!" " You know me, don't you?" " Where're you off to, Molly?" " To Volyne, to have my hair done, i?" "s like a haystack." "Hey, Dad, drive it out for me!" " Just me some peace, you're..."

"I keep telling Blazena to spruce it up at least in front, but no way..." " Brm!" "Brm!" "Brm!" "Drink!" "Drink!" " Ad him - always the same!" "Swilling down beer all the time!" "But they do it on purpose, when you need something you have to beg for it like a beggar!" "Leave me alone, will you!" " Why should I?" "I told you not to drink the beer as you'd drive me to Volyne!" "And you - i?" "s like talking to a brick wall!" " Tha?" "s normal" " Dad" " Mum." " Good morning." " Who is he?" " Simon, he's to stay with us, he's a part-timer." "The chairman'll explain it to you later." " Good morning." " They wouldn't give us a loan to repair the house, no they wouldn't, and now they're turning it into a hotel!" "But, Dad, you'll tell the chairman this, you will." "Blazena!" " Yes!" " He'll stay with us, for the moment." "Look, take him in, give him some clean bed linen." "And water the house plants!" " Sure!" " Yes, sure!" "Thanks a lot!" " Yeah!" "I wouldn't come in the car with her for love or money." "Good idea of yours to say Venca'll drive me." " I'm surprised, she's not finished up in a ditch yet!" " I'm surprised, she's not finished up in a ditch yet!" "You're terrible!" " Sure, I will!" "So who is he?" " Why don't you ask him?" " Wha?" "s he after?" " Not me, clever!" " I'd have to kill him!" "The moment he lays a finger on you!" " Ah come on..." "My dear little murderer!" "Jealous are you?" " M'm." " M'm." "Actually, he's quite all right, you know?" " M'm?" " Hey, wha?" "s got into you?" " I'll fix him anyway!" "Make love to me, Nicolas, make love to me." "Come." "I want you to be the first." "Someone young, handsome, fresh, tender, try to be tender!" " Love!" "My love!" " Hey, stop snoring, ïyou hear me?" "All right, stop snoring for chrissake!" " I'm deep in thought." " When you're deep in thought, the whole village can hear you!" "Turn on your side at least!" " Nagging me all the time!" " Hi." "Where's Simon, is he asleep?" " Come off it now, be quiet!" "Warm up the noodles with ham!" " Why are you yelling again?" " Because..." " He's quite nice, isn't he?" " Yeah, he went with Jirka to pick some cherries." "Wha?" "re you doing to the electricity, I'd like to know!" " Nothing, there's a power cut!" " Now, when the going was..." "Hm, well..." " But i?" "s a repeat." " Look, Blazena, fetch a candle!" "But I haven't seen it and you - stop snoring!" "What a mess, do something, ïyou hear me?" " What is it again?" " Wha?" "s up with you the whole time?" "Look at the meter, maybe i?" "s the fuses!" " I can't find it!" " They'll turn it on again." "The whole village's like this." " Gee, I'm scared!" " The whole village's like what?" "She's starting again, go and talk to her, will you?" " Why should I?" "If you hadn't given her beer..." " Is she your Mum?" "Yes, she is!" " It is my mum..." "I told you not to give her beer when she's sitting in the sun!" "As you've given her beer while she was out in the sun, you go on listening to her." "Wha?" "ve I got to do with it?" "Just listen to her." " Don't drip that candle on me!" " What are you on about?" "Well, Mum, Mum, don't be afraid!" " Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" " Mum, I'm not a ghost," "I'm your daughter!" "Don't be afraid!" "I'll give her an electric torch." "Where's the torch, I wonder?" " Want some noodles?" " Yeah." "To think there's just one candle in the whole house!" "I?" "ll be a hot day, Cecilka, a hot, day!" "The headmaster's girl's tuning up her soprano." "Mum..." " Wait a minute, I'll..." " Mum, but, Mum, don't, i?" "ll do you good to get some fresh air." "There we are!" "Le?" "s have the feet!" " Just to get rid of me, nothing more..." " C'mon, Mum, le?" "s lie down like this." "Fetch her some newspaper to while away her time." " You always find something to while away my time!" "You'd leave an old woman to drop dead!" "I know, I know!" "Good morning, Mrs Skopkova." " Hells bells, bloody hell, you gave me a fright!" " Sorry, I didn't want to!" " Tha?" "s all right!" " Hi, Simon!" " Hi!" " Wha?" "ll you have?" "Tea or milk?" " Oh no, thank you, don't go into any expense for me," "I'll get something from the General Store!" " No way, people'd gossip that we weren't hospitable." "As for expenses, leave them up to the chairman." "I'll see to it he foots the bill!" "C'mon, le?" "s go!" "There're streaks all over the place, blast it!" "I?" "s going to look a sight!" " There's not enough time to whitewash it." "You bet there isn't, chairman!" " When did you start, I'd like to know?" "Going like this, you won't be ready before New Year's Eve!" " You know something, chairman?" "Let those folks do it who've pinched the spraying gun and messed up the whitewash!" "Look, I can easily pack it in, no problem!" "I?" "s easy to criticize, anyone can do it!" " Wha?" "d you mean, criticize?" "Nitwit!" "Hi, chairman!" "Hi, Billy!" " Hi!" " Where did you get this this from?" "This is oversized even for our Mum." " So take it in then!" "I?" "s a woman's job!" " Yes, i?" "s a woman's job!" " Ouch!" "Hey, keep your hands off!" "Private property!" " No, you can't, Josef!" "We've paid you a hundred and eighty!" "So make sure i?" "s finished!" " So take it and go and get some wallpaper and the Fragrance of the Forest spray!" " Oh, come off it now!" " Yeah." "The dung conveyor keeps breaking down and as for the water mains, we've been piddling with it for at least two years!" " Look, Chairman, we could dress up as angels." " Such baggies!" " Don't you bloody start!" " Don't we look like we belong to the Red Cross?" " C'mon, girls, we must do something about it!" " I'd finish it." " But what about..." " Actually, i?" "s part of my paper - quality of the environment and..." " Well, if you think so, here you are." "Venca'll show you where to get whitewash and other... things." "Venca, come here!" "He's our plumber - a superb fellow!" "He's able to fix a fridge, a car, anything you can think of!" "They've written twice about him in the newspaper!" " Simon." " M'm." " This is Venca, see?" " Wenceslas." "Wenceslas for strangers!" " Sorry." "Hi." "Hey, Miluna, got some cigs?" "Come off it, as if you didn't know." "A pack of Sparta!" " I don't know, honest, I haven't looked." " Have a look then." " These are my old man's." " He'll give them to you, Milikin." " Milikin?" "M'm." " Look, I'm in a hurry, they've put this millstone of a new part-timer around my neck!" "Are you listening?" "Stop being clever!" " But there're some at home." "We can go and look." " Yes, but..." " Scared, eh?" " Scared, yeah right." " Scared of Blazena, I'd like to know!" " Come off it, me afraid of Blazena?" "!" " So that doesn't see you driving me to my place." " Pooh!" "Why're you telling me all this crap?" " So you'll drive me to town this afternoon, right?" " I told you I was on duty." "Next time." " But you'd give a lift to Blazena if she felt like it." "Never mind, I'll ask someone else." " I see, Venca, sonny." "Broken down, eh?" " Well, something's wrong with the engine..." " There you are, i?" "s right again." "So you'll give me a lift." "No way could I manage to carry such a heavy weight!" " I'm off to the cow shed and you haven't got a crash helmet." " So what?" "I?" "s a just a little way off and you're going that way anyway!" "I wouldn't be able to carry it and I've got a bad arm, remember how I tripped once and fell in front of the store?" "And I had to carry it around in a plaster cast all?" " Yes, but tha?" "s a long time ago." " Yes, i?" "s a long time ago but i?" "s a still not strong enough." " Hi, I'll just drive Auntie and the beer home..." " Oh no, I'll manage." "I had no idea you were waiting here for Miluska." " Stay where you are!" " Isn't that so?" " You said you were still not strong enough." "Hold tight!" " Thank you, Venca, sonny." "And sorry for troubling you." " Tha?" "s all right." " Miluska's a very nice girl." "And I thought that you and Blazena..." "Well, I must be confused." " Yeah." "I guess so, Aunt." " I guess so... just you wait!" "You stud!" "Just you wait!" "But really, sir, oh no, seriously, the invoice doesn't really belong to us!" " Humpty dumpty!" " Chairman, he's kissed me again!" "Chair... sir, it is from somewhere else, someone's jammed the line." "I'm sorry, Ev, but try to see my position - the harves?" "s the main worry and I can't cope with everything on my own." " So what?" "As far as we are concerned, the delegation is welcome to come any time." "Ain't I right, Ev?" " I've heard Josef's packed the whitewashing in." " As if you didn't know him!" "The new one'll finish it off." "True, he's nuts..." "Ev!" "...but at least he won't do any harm with a brush in his hand." "Look, Ev..." "Look, secretary, we've seen worse." " What did you say was the name of the new chap?" " Simon." "Simon Planicka." "Just like the famous goalkeeper." " I see!" "I thought the name rang a bell!" " Noon!" "Knocking off!" " Coming!" " Chairman, tell him to lay off!" "Take him along, take him to the cow shed!" "She asked him if he would give her a lift to town and he said:" "No - some other time." "But even then he was stripping her with his eyes." "She was not wearing much to strip anyway!" "I'm sure they've patched it up again." "Now she'll be jumping into the sack with them both." "Upon my soul, Father," "I've got a hang for such things." " But Mrs. Kalis..." " You know me, don't you?" "Hold it properly, or I'll box your ear!" " I'll puke!" " As long as you don't shit into your pants!" " Rabbit again!" "We have a rabbit every day, even Spot doesn't want it anymore, isn't it so, Spot?" "Aren't you fed up witch rabbits, eh?" " Don't Spot me, or you'll see!" "And pick it up, for chrissake!" "Such a nice rabbit, kids in Africa would be over the moon, just you watch TV, they show it all the time, how starved they are!" "But you're so debauched nothing's good enough for you." " I'll hold it for you, Mrs Skopkova, I don't mind." " Let him, it won't do him any harm!" " I'll remember that, mate!" " No horsing around!" "Go home and do your homework!" "And you-hold is properly!" "Tell me, then, what are you, wha?" "s your job, who are your parents?" " Does someone have a cow in the village?" " A cow?" "You're very kind, Father!" " Don't mention it." " They all tell me i?" "s nonsense..." " Well, everything's is our Lorïs will, son, this is..." "Daisy's at your disposal, do what you think fit!" "Cecilka, we're handing Daisy over into the service of the scientific and technological revolution!" " Le?" "s say, borrowing, Father!" " Don't worry." "Will you let me?" "Miss Cecilka, please!" "What she had, she's given." "I?" "s magic, this is magic!" " A miracle!" "Miracle!" "A miracle's happened!" " A miracle, folks, where are you?" "A miracle's happened, a miracle indeed!" "Sandokan, Sandokan..." " He's a creep!" "I didn't like him right from the start!" " What will people from the Council say?" "Did it have to be the parson's cow?" " And which one, I wonder?" "Nobody else's got a cow here and didn't let him use the cooperative cows!" "Poor chap!" " Never mind that!" "He shoulïve asked our advice!" "He'll pack up his things tomorrow and go!" " No, i?" "s not his fault!" " Too bad, isn't it?" " Twenty-two liters from one cow!" " Gripe!" "Who knows what they're up to and we'll fall for it, hook, line and sinker!" "As if we didn't know them." " But maybe he didn't mean any harm, this Planicek." " Planicka." "Simon Planicka." "Twenty-two, single, student and - contrary to some people - a decent and good-Iooking fellow." "And he smells nice." " Planicka i?" "s impossible!" "He's the director of the regional agricultural administration!" "And he's got a son!" " D'you think he's been sent here as..." " I do." "Yes, as the vanguard!" " The vanguard of what?" " The regional delegation, I'm telling you!" "His father's sure a member of it!" " Well, as long as i?" "s him." " Tha?" "s what we must find out as soon as possible!" "Discreetly, of course!" "Not a word to anyone, is that clear?" " Pilatova!" " There!" "I?" "s so hushed-up that he could even be a spy!" "Are you listening to me?" " Sure." " Why should we keep a spy in the house... free, I wonder?" "You'll tell the chairman tomorrow." "I can't even drop off now." "I say such a skinny, half-baked character," "but they are usually the worst!" "Still water runs deep." " C'mon then!" "Molly, what did you feed the rabbits with?" " What ïyou mean?" " Two of them are lying there stretched out, bloated!" "I keep telling you, don't give them wet clover, now they're lying there, two of them bloated..." " D'you think I'm daft giving them wet clover?" "Bloated..." "Well, I feed them with grass from the cooperative." " Go and have a look then!" " Yes, and I gave them at lunchtime..." "Listen, don't breathe at me, you reek of beer and your feet stink!" "Go and have a wash, you pig!" "What a life!" "I?" "s going to be bloody hot again, blast it!" "Oh no, you don't say so!" " I?" "s true, otherwise I wouldn't be telling you, if it were not true!" "Don't you know it, his father's a big fish in the Regional Council!" " You don't say so!" "Only i?" "s not the Council, Pilatova said it was the Ministry!" " For chrissake!" "Only i?" "s not the Ministry, they say he's at the top level..." "Well, you know!" "I know, chairman, I know!" "I'll hush up, I'll be quiet like a tombstone, you know me!" "What?" "Hey, engineer, sir!" " Blazena!" "Blazena, everything's at stake now!" "Bedrich'll tell you." " Good morning." " Stop pestering the engineer!" "D'you think he's your playmate, or what?" " No engineer, Mrs. Skopkova, i?" "s still far away!" " Never mind far away, he's an engineer and tha?" "s a fact!" " What is it, Mum?" "Want to go to the potty?" " You dump me..." " Dump me, tha?" "s right!" "Look, fetch her a newspaper to while away her time." "Here you are!" " Not the Young Reader, she'll tear it to pieces, like last time!" " Here you are, go on in!" "Well, at last!" "I've been waiting all this time!" "I'm waiting here and I've nothing to do." "I don't want a newspaper, I want the pictures." " No, you're not getting them!" " I want the pictures," "I don't care for this!" "For chrissake, i?" "s an old newspaper!" "Good morning." " Good morning." "You look smart today, Blazenka, did you make it yourself?" " Well, I had a go at it, I don't really know..." " What a lovely dress, you look smashing in it!" "They remade an old dress, her mother used to wear this rag to school in nineteen forty-six!" "I?" "s not the music alone!" "I?" "s a mere link," "which, applied in practise..." "In short, a clean environment or indifference or a reckless attitude, they are all interlinked!" " Sure, sure, i?" "s true!" "And from now on you won't use the parson's cow!" "You'll have a chance now to repeat that experiment of yours!" " Unfortunately, a tape recorder's not sufficient for my experiment." "I needs some appropriate equipment." "Some amplifiers!" " But look, amplifiers cost the earth, but..." "Hey, tha?" "s an idea, what if the women sang something a sort of choir, you know!" " For chrissake!" " What about it?" " Well..." "Well." " There you are - le?" "s give it a try." "Fetch the headmistress Hubickova, we'll get hold of some kids and women in the village and we'll see, won't we?" " As if we didn't have enough to do!" " C'mon!" " What an idea, chairman!" " Good, isn't it?" "Watch the chairman, he's having you on!" "You must find out from him who he really is and what he's actually after in Hostice!" "Yeah?" "But do it inconspicuously, otherwise i?" "s a fuck..." "I mean botch-up!" " Well, what if I botch it up?" " If you botch it up, anyone will!" " I'll give it a try then." " Tha?" "s a good girl!" "You must do you damnedest, get it?" "Give it your all!" "I?" "s in the interest of the cooperative." " Okay, then." " I'll be damned if he doesn't fall for such a dish!" "He he..." "Hi there!" "What was that?" " You saw, didn't you?" " He was feeling you!" " You're kidding!" " Kidding - come off it!" "I saw him feeling you, like this!" " Ouch, wha?" "re you doing?" "Look at the bruise!" " What were you doing there?" " I?" "s a secret!" " I'm asking you what you were doing there?" " You're a terrible, jealous nutter!" "I'm really fed up with you!" " I'll bash his teeth in!" " My sweet little murderer!" " Jump on!" " Wha?" "re you up to?" " Jump on a keep quiet!" " Next time." " Stop kidding and climb on!" " I really can't, it is in the interest of the cooperative." "I can't tell you more!" " Not interested!" "But listen:" "If anything happens, you'll both be in for it..." " You're a funny guy." "Okay, so just a quickie, right?" "Leave me alone!" " We only have light ale." " Shoe, give me my shoe, ïyou hear me?" "Give it to me!" "I?" "s my shoe, give it to me!" "C'mon!" "Leave me alone!" " Still at it, Miluna?" "There are others available here." " I?" "s something you don't understand." " Yes, there are others around!" " Leave me alone!" " Others I'm telling you!" "...our Willy's ploughing a field, he's got spotty bullocks." "When he's done ploughing..." " Get going, beast!" "...he'll call out to me, he'll know me from afar." "When he's done ploughing, ...young Pioneers, smashing kids." " Another one!" "Keep on dancing, keep on dancing smashing kids." " The oven crashed down i?" "s flying, i?" "s flying..." " Tra la la la, tra la la la..." "I can't look at it such fooling around, just like in our cow shed!" "Some gave more milk, but some gave less than usual." "Sure..." " They each respond to a different song!" " So that the average milk yield dropped..." " By how much?" " By seven per cent, seven per cent." " A song, I see." " Don't be cross with me, please, I... don't be cross, I..." " But tha?" "s all right, just carry on!" "I?" "ll improve with time." " Well, if we get a good tape-recorder and amplifiers, then..." " And if that doesn't turn out right, than we'll..." "Right?" " Right?" " There you are then." "Drink, drink, they'd let me perish!" "I want a drink, drink, drink!" " Fetch her a drink!" "Hey, where you are?" "He's been back for ages and there's no food in the house." "I'm going for a pint!" "And you're to give him lunch," "Mum's orders." " Sure, don't worry, i?" "s part of my job description." " Well, at last, someone's good enough to appear!" "You'd let me perish here!" " Cheers, Granny," "You're still the best off anyway!" "We're going to toil, get it?" "To toil - with these hands, get it?" " Bloody hell!" " You don't cheerio, then!" "Drink then." "Can you leave it for a moment?" "I've come for a little talk." " Hm." "What about?" " About you, for example." "You've stayed with us for nearly five days and I still don't know anything about you." " But there's nothing interesting." " Maybe there is." "Where you come from and so on." "Hey, wha?" "s this, whose crazy idea this is?" "For chrissake, they will not leave me in peace!" "Are you having me on, or what?" " Look, I'm sorry, le?" "s talk some other time." "Yeah?" "I must finish this." "...I think I'd rather leave!" " Pity!" "I may not be in the mood next time." "What is it again?" "Wonderful!" "Sure, a desirable match!" "Daïs upstairs..." "Who brinks his breakfast into his bed?" "Mum." " You're absolutely impossible." " Well, suit yourself!" " Brm, brm, brm, brm..." " I'm coming with you!" " You haven't a crash helmet!" " Not interested!" " Where are they?" "Where are they?" "Where are they?" "Our aldermen..." "Eh?" "Blimey..." " Lady, shall I give you a push?" " I want to go there, there, there!" " Hurrah!" "Hurrah!" "Hurrah!" " Annie's gone to fetch some cabbage..." " She must want to kill herself!" "...fetch some cabbage..." " Hey, folks, come here!" "Come and catch her!" "Come here, don't let her kill herself!" "She's a wild one!" "Look, she's driving like mad!" "I can't catch her!" "Hey, excuse me!" " Hello!" " Yes, i?" "s old Zvonicek." "But i?" "s haunted!" " Haunted?" " A big black dog and a dead sexton." "Jaro, you're rude!" " Le?" "s go back!" "A dead sexton!" " But why, she's plastered, can't you see it?" "Haunted - today..." "You're like a little kid." "Where can I find him?" "Hey, where can I find this Mr Zvonecek?" " He says Zvonecek - tha?" "s good!" " C'mon, c'mon!" " I?"

" What do you want me to do about it..." "Can you see it, can you see it?" "Can you see them?" " Hi!" "Hi!" " I?" "s clear, eh?" " Sure." "The moment you leave the house for a while - poor Granny," "What a shock!" " But why, she was laughing." " Laughing, but what if a car bumped into her on the road?" "Or if she'd crashed it?" "Stop picking at it and eat up!" " I don't want anymore!" " Whadja mean, don't want anymore?" "!" "You'll eat it even if you had to stay up all night!" "Remember that!" "And you too..." "Dad, come!"

"But what about you - have at least the foreleg!" " But I particularly don't like the foreleg!" " Listen, you'll eat the foreleg in a flash, get it?" "Put the beer down." "Haven't you had enough?" "For chrissake, take off your socks!" " Lay off me for once!" " The stink'd make one drop dead!" " Hm." "What did you give the rabbits again, eh?" " What could give them?" " Two of them are lying there, all bloated!" "I keep telling you, don't give them wet clover, but you won't listen!" "Two of them are lying there now, all bloated..." " What ïyou think I give them?" "I gave them cut grass and they also got cut grass at lunchtime!" " It mus?" "ve been damp then!" " Am I so daft or young to be such a fool as to give them damp grass?" "Well, if they're bloated, go and kill them." "So I can make at least minced meat." "I'll put some nettles in so i?" "s tasty!" " We had it last week, we always have minced meat!" " You shut up and eat up, you've been nibbling at it the whole evening!" "But mark my words, you'll eat up, have a wash and go to bed, get it?" " Eat up, c'mon, eat up!" " Go on eat it!" "For Chris?"

" Crazy, horsing around with cows!" "Stop nagging us." " But I won't go inside, not me!" " But..." " I'm slaving like a dog..." "C'mon, you're too slow." "Gee, no, not here!" "Don't!" "Mind the step." "We'll turn on the tape-recorder and we'll talk..." "Gee, there are some sausages at home with pickled onions..." "C'mon!" " Well, sausage you say, you bitch?" "Get up!"

" They say, you're the vanguard and your father's in the Ministry." " What?" "What made you think so?" " The whole village says so!" "That you're sending secret coded messages through Helenka to the town." "They're afraid to lose the award." " What?" "Me and secret coded messages?" "Listen, if my father knew I was here, working on my paper, he'd go off his head." "I only write Mum, pretending I'm our aunt who lives near Volyne." "C'mon, we'll think of something!" "But I never got involved with him!" " You did, you didn't, the whole village's gossiping about it, so it must be true!" " Indeed!" " Have you any idea how they'll envy you when you become Mrs. Planickova?" " What ïyou mean, Planickova?" "I love Venca!" " Just you dare!" "This brute, he's a disgrace to the village!" " Indeed!" "But you didn't mind him fixing the car, fridge and TV for you, eh?" "A nice, handy boy..." " Simon's a somebody!" " I don't want him, he's got a girlfriend in Prague!" " Never mind!" "You leave this up to me!" "Jirka, hand the bunch of flowers to the lady who'll get out of the poshest car and mind you make a beeline for home that very minute!" "Come here!" "And don't you dare stay horsing around in this outfit." "There you are and be off with you!" "Hey, take an umbrella for her to shade off the heat." "Pfffft!" "C'mon!" "Hi." " Hi." "Just a moment, young man!" "Don't worry, Simon, don't worry!" "Look, I'm here to offer you help!" "I?" "s my Christian duty, ïyou understand?" " Help?" "Why?" " In your, ehem, precarious situation, wha?" "s been done cannot be undone!" "Fortunately, there is the sacrament of matrimony." "And the wedding can practically take place straight away!" "In our little church, I've already taken the necessary steps." "And everything will be as it should!" " Is that all?" " What more ïyou need?" "Dear me!" "Public opinion will calm down and love and peace..." " Thank you for your kind offer, Father, but I don't want to marry yet." "Let alone in church." "And I'm leaving today." " Our Lady, can you see that?" "I'll never!" "Hold it!" "He's not acceptable!" "Cecilka!" " Yes, Father." "Call the operator to put as through to the Regional Agricultural Board, priority treatment!" " For chrissake!" "Hand me the fern!" "We'll fix it up here with a wire." " Good morning." " Good morning!" " Good morning, engineer!" " Good morning!" " Simon, they tell me you're thinking of settling down here." "Or am I wrong?" " Who told you?" " The grapevine." "When you finish school, we'll give you a job, see?" "What we need are young, promising specialists!" "You'll get a good salary to start with, a good flat, so how about it?" " D'you happen to know where I can find Venca?" " Venca?" " Venca's over there." " Over there in the back!" "When?" " At one." " I'll be there at one on the dot." "So she sees I keep my word!" "Pair up!" "Yeah!" "Tha?" "s them, tha?"

" I've a favour to ask." " Sure, sure." " Tell me where this rogue of mine is." "Hi, hi!" " Pardon?" " My son Simon." "They phoned this morning to say that he was up to a lot of mischief here!" " You don't say so." "Mischief, comrades, that can't be true!" " On the contrary, Simon's been very helpful to the cooperative." "Sure, helpful." "Thanks to him we've put an experiment into practice:" "The influence of the quality of the environment increase in the milk yield." "Yeah, didn't we?" "And there you are - you've appreciated the result yourself." " So he did succeed in the end, rascal!" "Welcome." " Sweet little things!" " Would you like some..." " No, thank you." " Glad to have you with us." " Thank you." "They say he's been, ehem, up to some mischief with a local girl." " You don't say so!" " Yes." " I don't know anything about it." " There's been a fight, eh?" "Has there been a fight, eh?" "Has there been a fight?" " So you say he's waiting in the cow shed, right?" " Yes." " Oh no, not in the cow shed, I saw them a while ago, driving towards the coppice over there." " Coppice?" " Sure, the coppice." " They were driving, are driving in the... towards the coppice." "We said one, didn't we?" " Have you any idea how crowded the doctor's surgery was?" " I see." "Well, if you've dragged me all this way just to tell me that you're having an abortion, you count me out!" " Have you got it?" "Show it to him then." "He really is a terrible fathead!" " But I love him all the same!" " Save your tears, I was not born yesterday." "What is it?" " A certificate." " I can see that!" " Saying that I'm three months pregnant." "And when did I arrive here?" "They're after you, the whole village!" "Clear off, quickly!" " Which's the shortest way to the station?" " You can't make it, they'll surround it in a moment!" " Take me bike!" "Jirka'll show you the way, we'll stay behind for a while." "There they are!" "There they are!" "Quickly!" "Tha?" "s them!" "Tha?" "s them!" "What a shame!" " We just caught them when..." "Pfffft!" "Bloody hell!" "Who are they?" "I can't see without my specs." " Wha?" "s this supposed to mean?" " I can't see him." " Sorry!" "What a disgrace!" "I'll kill you!" " Oh no." "You'd be murdering your own grandson though, grandma!" " What?" "On your way home!" "Young love - what paradise!" "Give it back to him with my thanks." "Cheerio!" " Cheerio, mate!" "And come back..." " Don't worry," "I've still got my things here!" "But not a word to anyone!" " We're not stopping!" "We're not stopping!" "Hoops!" "THE END"
