"Then I have... just minor difficulties." "Polina, what's wrong?" "Why are you silent?" "You don't have the right to decide this all by yourself!" "You can't decide this for both of us!" "You even can't decide this for yourself!" "I'm pregnant, Mel!" "But that's great, Polly." "So we will have a baby." "It's not your baby, Mel." "It's my baby." "Mine." "It's my baby!" "Also, my mom kicked me out from the home." "Well..." "It [marriage] is a good thing." "Maybe now you will finally calm down." "As they say in science..." "Multiply a negative by a negative, and there you have a strong family unit." "So why are you standing thunderstruck?" "Did you hear?" "You are going to have a nephew soon." "Go." "Get the beds ready." "It's so strange... that we don't need to hide anymore." "Polly..." "What?" "What do you think?" "Will we hurt him?" "If we..." "I don't know." "Right now he is still very little." "Come on." "Come on." "Quick-quick-quick!" "Come on, go, dear."

"Let's go get fresh air." "No." "It's ok." "Soon I won't be able to dance at all." "Let's go sign the papers tomorrow?" "Let's wait with the marriage." "Why wait?" "Let the baby be born first." "Raid!" "Mels!" "Katya..." "Are you serious?" "Katya, that's enough." "Let her go." "Katya!" "I'm really asking you!" "Katya!" "Don't touch her!" "Beasts!" "You're doing so well!" "Should I get a perm too?" "I was just planning to cut my hair today." "But there are queues everywhere." "Leave me you number, once it grows out, I'll come again." "By the way, how much does it cost?" "I'm afraid I may not have the right sum on me." "Miss, can you make it a bit shorter yet?" "Just a bit shorter?" "Once my hair grows out, I'll come see you again." "Miss, where are you going, Miss?" "Miss, you forgot your tip." "JOHN WAS BORN HERE" "Pour some to everyone!" "Pour to everybody!" "Come on!" "Pour!" "Everyone drinks!" "Polina!" "Polina!" "Show us the boy!" "What are you standing around for, daddy?" "Go meet'em!" "Polina, show us the boy!" "Hands off!" "Grandfather first..." "Who does he look like?" "Who?" "Oh, my God!" "Ours." "Ours." "Ours!" "Ours." "A warrior!" "Our warrior!" "His name was Michel." "One of ours?" "No, he was an American." "He was walking down Sadovaya Street, trying to talk to somebody to get directions..." "But people would all get scared and run away." "Did you love him?" "No." "This was something completely different." "He was like a man from another planet..." "And he was here for only a couple of hours..." "And there's so much you need to ask about them!" "So much to tell them about us..." "But time is running out." "The flight back is so soon!" "And we both know that we will never see each other again." "Is that what you wanted to hear?" "Are you satisfied?" "A way towards the reduction of international tension..." "Hello." "Well hello there, daughter." "Where are you going, louse?" "Where?" "!" "You got what you wanted, you slut?" "Got what you wanted, you American prostitute?" "I've been fired from work everywhere!" "I should have killed you!" "Miss!" "Miss!" "This is not the way!" "Comrade!" "Comrade." "Comrade?"

"Ivan." "Like her father." "Let me look at him at least." "He has our eyes after all." "What's this?" "What are you feeding him?" "What were you thinking?" "You have an apartment, but you are keeping him in this thoroughfare?" "We have our own room here." "And the second one..." "I know what you have here." "30 men use one bathroom, yeah?" "Unsanitary conditions, typhus, tuberculosis, diarrhea, jaundice." "Let's go home." "Pack your stuff." "Who needs me now?" "Mom, I need you." "Dudes!" "Ivan." "No, he's John!" "Where is Polly?" "Did you hide her from the world?" "You men are all the same." "First you talk about love, then point to the baby crib." "Betty!" "Have your own baby first, and then we'll see." "Oh, God!" "No thanks!" "Knock on wood." "Du-ude!" "Hi, Johnny!" "Look, a "kok"!" "He's already growing one!" "A real stilyaga!" "I don't know how to hold him." "I love you, baby." "Mom is here." "Listen..."

"This is for you and the baby." "By the way, the latest achievement of imperialism: the no-spill baby cup." "No matter how you turn it, it doesn't spill." "Don't talk to him about it." "He don't even know how to prepare a baby bottle." "He's above all that!" "You see, Fred." "Polina thinks that to be in accordance with gender equality I too must feed the baby with my breast." "Hey, dudes..." "Let's discuss this without me." "I flew to you across the ocean." "I have my own load of these problems back home." "Well, show me the baby." "He's awake already anyways." "How are you doing living with the mother-in-law?" "Do you get along?" "In the morning it's lineup." "In the evening - roll call." "He misses living in a communal apartment." "He prefers waiting in line to use the toilet." "That's him?" "Listen Mel, I think you've been listening to too much of Charlie Parker." "Among the slums and skyscrapers and many ads Americans are walking and chewing bubble gum." "Robbing, killing, humming chu-chu, And laying with stylish ladies." "Dude!" "Hush!"

"This is the American style of dress." "What style?" "You look like a square." "Why?" "Look at the quality!" "Feel it!" "See the label?" "It's more important what's on the inside." "The more free a person is, the more simple his dress." "Mel..." "I have bad news for you." "There are no stilyagas in America." "What do you mean?" "It's just so." "No stilyagas." "If we walked down Broadway dressed like this... down the real Broadway... we'd be taken to a nut house after walking two blocks." "Mel, try to understand." "There are no stilyagas there." " Get lost." " Mel!" " Get lost!" " Mel." "Go to hell!" "But we exist." "Mister, please don't kick us out of the building hallway." "We will no longer sing loudly." "We will no longer drink, cuss or smoke." "And if you want to do these things yourself, then don't invite us." "Today we are saying goodbye..." "I thought we had a reserve of at least another 5 years." "I was so sure that we had enough time to drink beer and chat." "But I already see your back, as you are departing with a sign saying "Don't miss me"." "Wait!" "Stay for at least one more day!" "Go on, play on!" "Goodbye, my dear friend." "Go on, play on!" "You are leaving so suddenly." "Go on, play on!" "You are leaving without saying goodbye." "You are leaving so unexpectedly." "Well, goodbye, my dear friend." "Go on, play on!"
