"Someone has to screw the generals' nieces too!" "She's not bad for a state of siege!" "How's your sex life, by the way?" "I haven't seen my wife for a week." "Your english girl is O.K., right?" "She's O.K., but she wants me to marry her..." "CouIdn't you have at Ieast waited for the "Sports flash"?" "You should've consulted the timetable!" "Cut it out!" "Come on, I've got a musical interval on!" "Why this delay, Miss EmanueIa?" "We've changed her make-up." "She was coming out too dark." "Good." "And now our new programme "english for Beginners"... written and presented by Mr. John PapaIukas..." "The card, Lambrou!" "This is our new programme... that you'II be watching three times per week..." "please, repeat after me..." "I only asked you what your name is..." "Don't you know it?" "The guy's illiterate!" "Let him be." "He's got problems." "He's being transferred back to his old bataIIion!" "Poor guy!" "What a piece of ass!" "What will you do with her?" "I'II start with a cucumber mask on her face... and then we'II try a yoghurt mask." "We'II need a showy knife." "Adding garlic to the yoghurt, we'II have a "tzatziki"." "What about me?"

"Be patient!" "Peanuts, ice-cream, candies..." "Duck... duck..." "Is that SouIa?" "No, it's the colonel!" "You've brought us here to watch her do the laundry?" "How you doing?" "Wait..."

"Communism today does not project its theory... it does not project its claimed paradise... as an example to the free world." "Louder!" "Because the communists know, that any man of intelligence... humanity and civilized education... cannot possibly be misled by their theories." "Enough!" "Now, analyse Mr. PapadopouIos' speech!" "He says that we cannot be misled by Communism." "You know Communism by heart!" "tell us about the system..." "It has its problems, sir." "Don't tell me!" "I know!" "tell them!" "The problems..." "Shortages in production and in..." "How do you call it?" "In supplying..." "In other words, they starve!" "Not exactly, sir." "But they don't have good food like us." "Shut up!" "Do they have cars?" "Private cars, very few.But they have good public transport." "I didn't ask what they have!" "I asked what they don't have!" "Do they have liberties?" "It depends, sir..." "Can you go out in the Red Square... and say aloud that Comrade Brezhnev is an asshole?" "Shut up!" "You'II copy it three times on white paper!" "PapadopouIos, where's the book that I gave you to copy?" "I was so busy, sir..." "I Ieft it at home..." "You'II copy it ten more times!" "Are you sure we're accounted for?" "Of course!" "I told von Canaris that we're "loyalists"!" "Why don't we start an advertising agency?" "You'II be the designer..." "Savidis the copy-writer..." "He'II shoot the commercials." "And what will you be?" "The pimp?" "Commies, you'II die!" "Cut it out, Lambrou!" "Give me a light." "We are thinking of doing some business!" "commercials..." "We've got the material, the equipment..." "The models!" "Why not shoot a feature?" "With sex, etc." "Who's gonna distribute it?" "For export, stupid!" "Greek sex?" "Sex and violence!" "The works!"

"What does he want?" "A cigarette?" "Very good..." "I'II let you know as soon as possible..." "And, please, don't call us." "We'II call you." "I want you to help MarIafekas with this assignment..." "Do you know him?" "Don't you know him?" "Premier VenizeIos!" "Anyway, no matter who he is..." "I want this blown up to 2X3 meters and properly framed." "MarIafekas, do you know what this is?" "And don't tell me that it's the Mercedes sign!" "Anyway..." "I want twelve of these, 80 centimeters wide." "I want them ready by Monday." "Any questions?" "You'II work in your office, in absolute secrecy." "Who's next?" "The juggler, sir." "With a note from the Minister." "Show him in." "What you want, sIob?" "To see if they fit in the car." "No problem..." "And where is the photo?" "In the lab." "I'II go and see if it fits." "That one fits nowhere!" "Where are you taking them?" "To the parliament." "To the parliament." "Constitution Square?" "You know..." "I knew it!" "I told you!" "told us what?" "They're national Communists!" "Cut the crap!" "EmanueIa told me!" "Her uncle belongs to a pro-Nasser group!" "Piss off with EmanueIa!" "What do they want with the hammers and sickles then?" "To put them in the trucks with the arms." "The 70 trucks they said they discovered with communist arms." "He's clever!" "Like the other PapadopouIos!" "Maybe they have a reception for the 50 years of the U.S.S.R.!" "Arise ye brave young Greek warriors..." "The Captain!" "Arise ye prisoners of starvation..." "Too much work I see." "That's life, sir." "Everything for the fatherland!" "But nothing for me!" "We can make some for you too!" "What I want is a nice decoration for next Easter." "So early?" "It's only August!" "I want you to make something original..." "Next Easter coincides with the anniversary of our revolution." "We can make a big phoenix... with the soldier holding instead of a rifle an Easter egg!" "Don't you Iike it?" "The egg will be too small." "We can make the phoenix coming out of a big egg!" "That's it!" "PapadopouIos, you are a real artist!" "MarIafekas, I want you to prepare a sketch of it." "Yes, sir, as soon as we finish with this cutlery!" "What is this?" "For the parliament, sir!" "The parliament is closed!" "Maybe they'II reopen it." "Who has given the order?" "It's top secret, sir." "I see..." "But I'II find out!" "And heads will roll!" "Communism will not pass!" "PapadopouIos, put him face down!" "And keep them all well covered all the time!" "I hold you responsible!" "Your comrades!" "old buddy, what are you doing here?" "still in the Army, poor guy?" "What's that uniform?" "An extra..." "I'm a KGB officer in this film." "Yannakis, how are you?" "What happened to your long hair?" "You came as extras?" "We brought some ham...props." "What sort of film is that?" ""High Treason"..." "Spies, chases, helicopters..." "And lots of soldiers!" "Like an Army production!" "What are you shooting in there?" "A Soviet meeting in the CremIin." "You couldn't find another place?" "Why?" "Since they gave the parliament for nothing!" "We unload here." "How did you get involved with them?" "What can I do?" "I've got three kids!" "You should see what others do!" "It's getting from bad to worse!" "O.K. I'm coming..." "Bye-bye, Yannakis." "And good luck." "It's a bit large." "Never mind." "You'II take it off inside." "The attache case!" "Look at him." "Very elegant, right?" "Come on, this is not a comedy!" "tell your line, BaIourdos!" "Why are you laughing?" "Didn't I say it right?" "O.K. Go on..." "What does that mean?" ""What does the maid in my bed"" "And who's the maid?" "It's SouIa!" "And Cindy is playing what?" "Your wife, stupid!" "How would I know?" "Did I read the script?" "Where was the cucumber in the Iast shot?" "I had it!" "Put it where you had it!" "Don't forget to shoot a CU of the cucumber!" "What do I do when he comes in?"

"The transmission starts in half an hour!" "We blew it!" "Who's gonna tidy up this mess here?" "It's work!" "We've got to make some extra money!" "And what the hell do you think I'm doing?" "Don't be like that!" "My hand is cramped writing von Canaris' bullshit!" "The ousted King left towards destination unknown..." "The national Goverment issued the following communique." "The King picked the time to do his revolution!" "He was preparing it a Iong time ago." "only the others were smarter and beat him to it!" "The King was deceived by a group of ambitious manoeuvres.." "You asked for me, sir?" "Didn't I tell you to write that the King fled?" ""Left destination unknown"." "That's what the colonel said." "Good..." "What about the closing card?" "Ask your colonel!" "The regime hasn't changed." "We still have a "royal" Democracy!" "We'II use the King's card then?" "I'm waiting for instructions from HQs..." "But the programme ends in two minutes, sir." "I'm aware of that, Lambrou." "Long live the Nation..." "Long live the revolution!" "This is the end of our programme..." "Good night." "What shall we do?" "Do we put the King's card?" "Piss off, all of you!" "The bird!" "This is not a revolution led by individuals or a group..." "This is a revolution by the people of Greece!" "AII Greeks must realize that!" "especially you, teachers,due to the particularity of your task." "You must realize that you're nothing but Greeks..." "And as Greeks you must serve your country." "The material was just printed, GeneraI.That's why it's silent." "Go, Yannis, baby, go!" "The Regent is very elegant!" "What's that, CatsambeIas?" "What?" "That cucumber." "It must be some mistake." "Stop the projection!" "Let me have a look, boys!" "I'm waiting for your report." "I'II see to that immediately, sir." "SouIa is a lousy actress." "She'II do." "There's a shot missing here." "PropabIy they haven't printed it yet." "CatsambeIas is raiding!" "Can't you keep quiet, you motherfuckers?" "Except for those on report, at ease!" "What have you done?" "A personal problem, sir." "The Staff Sergeant confiscated my diary, sir." "What is he talking about?" "He kept notes in Russian, sir." "In Russian, eh?" "Where is the diary?" "In G2, sir."

"That makes 159 plus 30..." "Merry Christmas!" "Who says I'II get 30 more?" "Statistics, my boy!" "In 27 months you got 132, in 5 months how many?" "What did I tell you?" "28.70" "A genious with numbers!" "What the hell!" "I spent 3 years at the school of Economics." "And PapadopouIos had said that he'd wipe out all penalties!" "Who, me?" "Not you!" "The other one!" "Say cheese all of you!" "Not here." "Under the bird." "Come on, it was your idea!" "Leave me alone, Lambrou!" "I'm fed up..." "With you and your bird..." "Hi PapadopouIos, with your scopes!"
