"Do you understand what this means, honey bun?" "Your man is going to direct a film." "A real, wide-screen movie, with real actors, characters," "a beginning, middle and end." "But what about the money?" "He says he'll only pay half." "I knew it." "Can't you at least pretend to be happy for me?" "I am. I just worry about you." "Well don't." "I know what I'm doing." "Tamás, you've only directed adverts and music videos." "I'm fed up of being mucked around by 20-year-old yuppies, and pretending to like it." "So now you'll have this American to put up with." "Right. I'll make your lunch." "Where are you going?" "Hollywood?" "Somewhere I'm appreciated." "Where's that kid?" "Does he know where we are?" "I left a message on his pager."

"Can I ask you something?" "That's what I'm waiting for." " Call me Ákos." " Three beers, Ákos?" "Would you like to work for me?" "I'm sure you're talented." " You must have a huge..." "lQ."

"I'll stink of beer." "You're not on a date, just going to swindle someone." "Want some chewing gum?" "It's an American habit..." "Hey, sweetie!" "The bill." "Has Alexander Brubeck arrived?" "Not yet." "We'll wait in the lobby then." "If you really must." "I heard you became a baker." "I've changed job." "To what?" "Entertainment, catering, that sort of thing..." "You opening a casino?" "Not yet, but soon." "Yeah, as soon as your lottery system starts working." "Go on, laugh." "Jupiter's in my ascendant." "Doesn't that hurt?" "It means that sooner or later I'll strike lucky." "Probably later in your case." "That's him." "That's exactly what a producer looks like." "Well?" "I think he meant the next lift." "It carries three." "There are five of us." "You don't count." "Then there's still four of you." "You'll all die." "Keep your mouth shut." "Your breath smells of beer." "It stinks in here anyway." "I could make it even worse by grabbing his balls..." "They're close to hand." "I can't believe this." "So I can't even belch?" "Inwardly and silently." "Then I'll fart." "I didn't really have to fart." "Fuck it." "I might as well sit down." "Relax, kiddo." "He understands that. idiot!" "What, shouldn't I say "kiddo"?" "See?" "He knows the title." "And it's going to cost him a fortune." "Let's go." "He's had enough of us, and he needs a shower." "He smells a bit cheesy." "Hey!" "What about sending him a chick?" "A good screw might straighten him out a bit..." "Cut it out." "Only trying to help." "Well, they could have given it a bit more thought." "I can't believe it." "Can I fart now?" "I'm not taking you anywhere ever again." "Why not?" "I think he liked me." "Yeah." "His life would be so empty without us." "I'll come to the shoot tomorrow." "I'll butter him up while you're working." "No solo missions, okay?" "!" "Okay, but I can still check up on my girlfriend." "Timi'll be thrilled." "Not to mention me." "Don't go easy on her just because she's mine..." "Don't worry about the money." "Let me sleep on it, and I'll figure something out." "I know how much "Guilty City" means to you." "See?" "I know the title too." "Good evening." "But I still think "Giddy City" would be better." "Come on. I'll give you a lift." "No thanks. I've still got some things to do." "DELETE DOCUM ENT:" ""guilty city"?" "DOCUM ENT DELETED" "Can't you sleep?" "I had a nightmare." "Why aren't you asleep?" "You know I can't sleep if you can't." "I'm so glad you stayed." "I nearly didn't." "You creep." "So why did you stay?" "Because you love me." "Because I don't have a key." "So either I lock you out, or leave the door open, for the burglars." "You beast." "You're the beast." " Come here." " You come here." "Do you want to be a big spoon or a little spoon?" "Little spoon." "You let me sleep in again!" "And you know how important today is for me." "If I wake you, you say you feel like a sack of shit all day." "I can't stand the way you have an explanation for everything, so you're always in the right." " l am in the right." " No you're not." "Of course I am." "If you can't stand me, why do you stay with me?" "No idea." "Why not pick up one of those little whores from the shoot?" "They're younger, prettier, and happy to lick your ass to appear in some advert or one of your crap videos." "That'll happen in the end, wait and see." "I can't wait!" "My videos aren't crap." "I've always loved speed and danger, but they always made me sweat profusely." "Since I started using Ambadeo, nothing's impossible." " Cut." " Stop rolling." "That's terrible." "I'm not paying for that." "We're not finished yet." "It should be much more authentic." "I want to feel the speed, a love of the product, the magic of the brand..." "Be patient, she'll freeze if tell her off." "Okay, that was better." "Try to be even more convincing." "Show how super you feel." "Come on!" "Quiet please!" "Let's take it from the top." "Camera..." "Go!" "I've always loved speed and danger, but they always made me sweat profusely." "Since I started using Ambadeo, nothing's impossible." "No good." "Relax!" "I've always loved speed and danger, but they all... alright... al..." "always made me..." "Why can't I remember this shit." "I spent all night learning it." "Can I have a smoke?" "Only tobacco." "Stop rolling." "Listen up, please." "I'd like to introduce Alex Brubeck, American producer." "With any luck we'll be working together soon." "Be very nice to him, it's important to me." "Cigarette break over." "Timi, take your position." "Cigarette break over Timi, take your position." "Timi, stay cool for a couple of minutes, okay?" "Just concentrate on that one simple sentence." "Say it like you're buying spam in the supermarket." "I don't go shopping." "Mrs Terka does it." "Well the beautician, or the solarium." "I don't give a shit, sweetie." "Since I started using Ambedeo, nothing's impossible." "Get it?" "Of course." "Keep your hair on." "So let's try." "Okay, let's take it from the top." "I've always loved speed and danger, but they always made me sweat profusely." "Since I started using Ambadeo, nothing's..." "Cut." "You're all tense." "What am I going to do with you?" "Stop rolling." "Lacika!" "A tonic, American recipe." "Down it in one." "You could have thought of that earlier." " Jocó" " Yeah?" "How are you going to look like Timi with that body?" "Easy, Géza." "Only my head will show, in profile." "Fine." "lntellectually, you're very similar." "You're asking for it." "He's only kidding, leave him alone." "Let's do it now, or I'll sing the words." "Okay, let's take it from the top." "Quiet please!" "Camera..." "Go!" "I've always loved speed and danger, but they often made me sweat profusely." "Since I started using Ambadeo, nothing's impossible." "That's a wrap." "If we got that, we can do the next scene." "Hopefully the stuntman's in make-up." "Ákos has been promising me a car for months." "The producer sees red when I hand in my taxi receipts." "It wouldn't ruin your marriage to take a bus, like us proles." "I wish I had one to ruin." "I don't want to end up a spinster." "You?" "Me, more likely." "That hair suits you." "I keep telling him, but he doesn't believe me." "It's bloody hot, this..." "You have to suffer for your beauty!" "Do you need me any more?" "I'd like to get something to eat." "Go ahead." "It'll take a while to make a woman out of Jocó." "Ah!" "Hello everyone." "Nobody doing anything, as usual." "That wasn't exactly what I asked." "Where's Timi?" "He was just talking about her." "She's in make-up, I think." "You'd better stop that if you want to keep your face." "Hey Barbie, can't you take a compliment?" " Get the hell out of here!" " Hey, did I bite too hard?" "Hey boys, what's all this rough stuff?" "Let me introduce you." "Ákos, Jocó." "Jocó, Ákos." "I'm Géza." "Where's Timi." "She just went for a quick bite to eat." "You're lovely." "Maybe I'll switch." "I'll be right here." "You?" "Here?" "You didn't say you were coming." " l came to see Tamás." " l won't bother you then." "Stay, you silly thing." "Of course I came to see you." "I can't stand an hour without you." "Then marry me." "You still here?" "Do you know each other?" "Only in passing, but better late than never, eh Jocó?" "I want double danger money because of your brother." "What have you done this time?" "Entertain our American guest, but watch out, I'm keeping an eye on you." "A good brother helps any way he can." "I've slept on it." "I've got a plan." "Forty-something female marketing executives." "I don't understand a word." "Don't worry, just count the money that your uncle Ákos will get you by the weekend." "Will you be long, darling?" "No, just the car scene to do." "I'll take you out to lunch." "At last!" "Are you sure you want to take me to meet the American?" "We should have left ages ago." "Answer my question." "Would I be here otherwise?" "At my age it takes time to get presentable." "Oh come on, you're only 28." "Twenty-seven." " So?" " Nothing." "Alex wants to see you." " Why?" "He doesn't even know me." " That's why." " And you?" " l know you." "Very funny." "If Alex didn't want to see me, would you still take me?" "Don't torture me, or I'll bite your ear off." "I heard that's a family trait." "We're late." "Men find women more exciting if they have to wait for them." "Now, what should I wear?" "If it was up to me, nothing else." "Timi's the sexy provocative one." "No point in competing with her, so I'll be simple and decent." "A natural wild flower." "Okay, okay." "Just get dressed." " Hey, I've turned you on." " No." "The evidence is here in my hand." "Schnell?" "Okay, but really schnell." "Snap it on, I'll be back in a minute." "Black." "Makes it look smaller." "Sex on the Beach?" "That's for me." "Ask him how he likes Budapest." " He's only been here one day." " That's okay." "Ask him. I can't speak English in the evening." "He doesn't really know, he's only been here one day." "But has he seen the er..." "the parliament building?" "Eat the olive." "It's good for your skin." "We could talk about the film." "Yes, the film!" "Tamás is making a film, and I'm playing the lead role." " Who told you that?" " l did." "You said the lead role was based on me." "So?" "I'm a born actress." "The camera loves me." "Everyone knows that." "I'm the only one who loves you." "Shut up." " András, have you got a job?" " Yes." "Any good?" "Shit." " l'm quitting." " Good idea." "May I recommend this Villányi Cabernet Sauvignon?" "We saved it for you." "Make some kind of a toast." " Who said?" " You." " When?" " Today." " l don't remember." " But I do." "Help me out." "Tell him I made it myself." "He said it can't have taken long, it's so skimpy." "This is the 21 st century." "You're so behind the times." "Come to the office tomorrow." "We'll do our sums, and I'll have the money in a flash." "Maybe we don't even need this joker." "You know what?" "I'll chip in too, if my numbers come up." "Tell Alex about your winning numbers." "Relax." "Don't overdo it." "Can I have dessert?" "Your turn in the jungle." "I've had enough exhaust fumes." " What are you writing?" " Nothing, just private..." "This is fucking cool!" " You can rap to it." " lt's just a parody." "Write a few more of these, and we'll be the kings of rap." "I though you were going to college." "To hell with college if I can make money." "I don't agree." "Then just wag your tail and dream on." "Bye!" "Good morning." "You've had two calls." "Someone from Porsche-Hungária wants to know if you'll be able to make the salon opening..." " Coffee?" " Coffee." "I put the documents, and something on your desk, and..." " ...and my brother's here." " Yes." "That old hag drives me crazy." "She's always tidying up after me, and I can never find anything." "Do me a favor and screw her." "She's crazy about you." "You've had women that were crazy about me before." "Twice, but only as a favor." " You bastard. I only knew about one." " Only one, but I screwed her twice." " Lívia!" " Happy name day, Ákos." "You really shouldn't have." "Get me the phone numbers of all the marketing directors we deal with." "What do you think of Alex?" "Foreign, cautious." "A bit strange." "Do you think he's gay?" "He's got the hots for Eszter." " You're imagining it." " You didn't see how he looked at her." "Well, nothing's free... ldiot!" "So, how much do we need?" "Sixty." "Sixty million Hungarian forints. ln five days." "This Alex hit us like a bolt from the sky." "That's the film industry." "A den of iniquity." "Full of swindlers and thieves." "That's why you get on so well with us." "You might be right." " Coffee?" " l've only got two hands." "And what big ones!" "Lívia, I never noticed how big everything is on you." "Door!" "So, here are the ones I have to convince." "And how?" "Either through logic or my male charm." "You're going to screw all the marketing managers?" "No, only the women." "Chocolate?" ""But you don't care about that."" ""You didn't care at all." "You pretended to be in love again..."" " Hello." " Mrs Terka. lt's me, Ákos." " Who's this?" " Who wants to be a Millionaire?" "Turn off that bloody thing." "Ákos!" "I didn't recognize your voice." "Hold on, I'll switch off the vacuum cleaner." "Why did he have to call now?" "Now I'll never know what Eulalia said to Rodrigo." "Hello." "What's up Ákos dear?" "I'm having a party this evening, put out the glasses and plates." "Don't worry about hoovering the carpets." " l've already done them." " Well roll them up then." "What was on TV this morning?" "Ákos, you know I don't understand these modern ones." "Okay." "That's settled then." "And please come tomorrow, there's bound to be a mess." " Can I get back to work now?" " l'm gone." "That bastard Rodriguez." "Always stirring the shit." "Your attention please!" "All the way from America, Alex Brubeck." "Treat him like one." "This is Alex, my producer." "Let me introduce you to Éva." "A tourist guide in Africa." "We dated two years ago." "Tímea, singer." "Now he's dating me." "I don't envy you." "I really don't envy you." "Do you get on this well with all your exes?" "My one true love!" "Can I help it if I can't split acrimoniously?" "That gives me great hope for the future." "I can't afford not to chase after rich guys." " l won't translate that, okay?" " Why not?" "At least I'm open about it." "Come on, let's dance." "What?" "You're turned on by my Polski Fiat?" "Why so late?" "I've been working." "Did you say you're a baker?" "Not any more." "Hi András." "But you still won't say what you do." "Not now, please." "You want me to drown my sorrows in cake?" "I wonder what's in it..." "Wow." "Sneaky!" "You know which of your adverts I like best?" "I think you're about to tell me." "Yeah." "The one where that guy can have all those silly wishes and wants to turn into a frog and all that..." "And that one where the four guys in hats tell jokes... I didn't do those." "What's wrong with you, surrounded by all these chicks?" "They're for people like you:" "directors, managers, producers." "Incredible party, isn't it?" "I've invented a new computer game." "Cool!" "I've got a hard on." "What about you?" "What an incredible chick!" "If she wasn't mine I'd be totally crazy about her." "She seems to be enjoying herself." "Let's not disturb her." "Come on." "The screen shows a yuppie party." "A load of wankers and their stupid tarts." "Crap music is playing." "Stupid flashing lights, and dickheads dancing badly." "You have to move among them with the joystick." "You have a bloody great baker's shovel, which you use to brain the ones that irritate you most." "The graphics would be best when the shovel smashes their heads." "Stupid." "And what's the goal?" "Smash all the assholes and their ugly women, and make off with the hot chicks." "is it just me, or have others noticed the psychopath hiding behind that timid, intellectual mask?" "What does this remind you of?" "You, with horns on your forehead." "Fuck you!" "No heart-to-hearts, it's party time!" "Come on." "Come on." "I'm off. I don't want to be in the way." "Hey!" "Are you really a baker?" "Fuck you." "I'm allergic to animal hair." "Let's slip out." "What?" "Don't you want to?" "Wh..." "What?" "I'll explain in a minute." "Relax, it won't hurt." "Timi." "Tell me honestly." "is sex good with me?" "Who the bloody hell was that?" "Why don't you sleep." "It's still early." "I'm sleeping." "The hell you are." "I'm thirsty and hungry." "I'll see if anything's left over." "Do all pharmacologists speak such good English?" "Only the ones that learned it." "Like a plague of locusts, nothing's left." "I'll go to the shops." "I'll go." "You get yourself together, you look terrible." "Oh my God what a mess." "I'll be here until the evening." "What's wrong, Mrs Terka?" "Never seen a naked man?" "I've forgotten." "Was it such a shock?" "Not exactly a pleasant sight." "Timi!" "Mrs Terka's criticizing my ass." "What do you think?" "What's the time?" "Can you see?" "I don't want to see anything, especially no more naked men." "Couldn't you all just go to work?" "We'll be gone in a minute." "Be careful with those." "They cost a fortune." "I'm warning you." "I thought you didn't know how to use the TV." "I just sat on this... thing, and it came on." "is there a connection?" "Who knows." "Just don't forget to sit on it again when you leave." "Everything'll be tidy when I come back?" "You know me, Ákos." "That's why I asked." "Are you still here?" "This evening?" "Why not take him to that new place by the opera?" "Will you sober up by then?" "What for?" "Tell the kid, too." "Hey, I'm performing at the Stone tonight." "You promised to come and see me." "She's right." "I did promise." "Okay, we'll go there, then take him to our favorite place." "And who's going to keep me happy until tonight?" "Your middle finger." "Bastard!" "Didn't you say you were going for a manicure?" "What?" "See?" "Even Alex understood that." "Alex, you've got to sign the internet contract with PSlNet, the director's impatient for the marketing plan, and Mr Majoros left a message that... I want a mess." "Dr Hámori?" "She'll be here at ten." "Send her right in." "Mr Majoros says you can transfer the first payment, the internet contract is ready to be inked..." "Dr Hámori's here." "Good morning, I'm 90 seconds late. I apologize." "Good morning." "Please come in." "Can I get you a soda?" "Coffee?" "Tea?" "No thank you. I'd rather we weren't disturbed." "Don't let anyone in until the deputy state secretary leaves." "Come here you animal, let me smell you at last!" "What was with the official tone?" "Sorry, in my position appearances are everything." "You're certainly doing well." "But you're still my Rambo." "And you're my Rambina!" "My Barbie doll." "My little muff." "Yes, and I'm yours, my little G.l. Joe" "G.l. Jane!" " Take me, you animal!" " l am." "Why did you call me?" "I'm older than you, but not stupid." "You think I'm using you?" "Yes, but I love that in you." "I need sponsors." "You?" "No, my brother's film." "is it any good?" "It'll be a box-office success." "How much do you need?" "Five million." "Haaah..." "Okay, okay, six." "You're generous." "Excuse me for a moment, we have to submit the annual..." "Lívia, can't you see I'm in a meeting?" "...the annual report." "It still needs typing, but we have to check the data because if we're late if we miss the deadline the boss will eat us... alive." "They suit you." "Can't it wait five minutes?" "Okay, I'll transfer the money." "Sure you don't want a coffee?" "Tea?" "Sure!" "Doesn't that battleaxe get on your nerves?" "Of course she does." "A lump of dead meat, to put it mildly." "Screw her once and she'll eat out of your hand." "I'd rather become gay." "You owe me a screw." "This is costing me, so I want my money's worth." "Six million then?" "Five." "He's all yours, darling." "Keep trying." "Those barons have eaten everything." "Straitened circumstances always improve a real artist." "Did you make an appointment with my secretary?" "What appointment?" "What secretary?" "I'll fire her." "I told her to call you to make an appointment." "But what luck that we're here."

"Good friend, Good friend," "Good friend, Good friend." "Vali told me what it's about." "And?" "We can discuss it." "Good." "But only with me, too." "What?" "Only I can screw her." "I'll have to discuss this with the producer." "We need to know your er..." "parameters." "I have to show you?" "I think it's unavoidable." "Here?" "If you're shy, let's just forget it."
