"Did you come for the service?" "No." "We heard you'd got goats and we'd like to buy one." "We have." "But they're not for sale." "The truth is that my children are allergic to cow's milk, and your goats aren't genetically modified." "We've got goats in the garage, but they provide milk for the congregation." "Wait here, the service is about to start and you can join in." "It'll be very beautiful." "We'll come back for you." "Shall we check out the garage?" "_ Hi we're looking for the garage." "Haribol." "Go right down the corridor then left down the steps." "is this machine expensive?" "I don't know, but it's the latest model." "We may be the only people to have one." " Do you have to walk a lot?" " Come on?" "Go on ahead." "Two of us might be scary." "Sorry." "So, do you have to walk a lot?" "It's not a problem, and I can sit on the top if I get tired." "That's when I usually read the scriptures." "What's wrong with it?" "It's never done that before." "Maybe it's your aura..." "or something." "I think there's magnetism in your aura, or electricity." "I'm sure yours is very strong, because I felt it when you were near me." "Haribol." "What are you doing here?" "I came for a goat." "We'd like to borrow one." "Who did you talk to?" "The head lama..." "We don't have lamas here." "There's one in Tibet, but he's emigrated." " Did he give you one?" " My children are sick, they're allergic to cow's milk." "That could be psychological." "Do you beat them?" "No way..." "their allergy is genetic." "Now, get out of here and scram!" "Try to take them to India." "They can heal them there." "You spirit should make peace with your body." " That's what our leader said." " l'll try it." "Listen, give me one of these goats." " Can't we make a deal?" " What's it worth to you?" " We've no money right now." " Are you out of your mind?" "D'you know how much a goat costs?" "How much were you thinking?" "Thirty thousand." "The thing is, there's a way to make a load of money, but it needs a goat." "If it works out, you could get a cut." "Take one!" "I don't really care if I'm kicked out I'll join the foreign legion." "Take her out that way." "In the end love is an institution... a union in which everyone must strengthen themselves." "Trust and solidarity are vital." "And you have to build a real fort around children, which only a marriage can support." "To my mind." "Your aura is so strong, because you are so self-assured and so rational." "We'd never be right for each other and you probably eat meat, too." "Come on!" "I got it." "Then we're leaving." "I'd like to meet you sometime." "Me, too." "By the time you return, I'll be strong!" "Fine." "Well..." " Bye," " Haribol." "I'll be back." "Bye." "One million eighty thousand." "Now you're talking!" "Ten percent is 108." " Any more tips?" " Of course!" "Or maybe I've had enough?" "Have one more go." "On which one?" "The green one." "You'll pocket close on 2 million." "One more tíme on the green?" "Fill it again, please." "What?" " What are we doing?" " What are you doing?" "I was just in the pub, and there was all this smoke..." "I felt sick." "Maybe they put something in my drink." "I heard you played and lost a lot of money." "Money?" "What money?" "I don't know." "Where'd you get it?" " How much?" " Well, how much?" "I won." "But they said you lost a lot." "Yeah, but then I won a lot." "And why aren't you at work?" "I had to go for the tools, and on the way back I stopped in to play a bit." "I got sick." "They put something in my drink." "_ Well I have to take the tools, the boys are waiting." "Bye." "Later." "So, how we doing?" "No how!" "What took you so long?" "There were a lot of people at the bank." "Hey, Zoli." "There's a problem." "I lost it on the cocks." "All of it?" "Fraid so." "How much?" "Three hundred thousand." "I feel dizzy!" "Hello Zoltán." "Welcome." "It's ages since I was here." "A long time, for sure." "I remember the first time you came to the lectures." "You were a young rebel, you had long hair." "You wanted to cut the 10 commandments to 8." "I don't want to rebel anymore." "I just want peace." "I'm in trouble." "Anyone who strays from their appointed path is in trouble." "I can't remember when I strayed." "It's not important." "You just have to find your way back." "Children." "Innocents." "The power of evil hides in innocence." "It uses it to draw us into sin." "Innocence is our biggest temptation." "What exactly do you mean, sir?" "Are you scared of goats?" "Fuck, I had a shitty dream!" "They attacked me and wanted to rape me." "And was it good?" "Hell no." "It was shitty, really shitty." "So, what d'you think of her?" "We're in trouble." "Anti gambled away all the money on Pejker's card." "How can you be such a dickhead?" "I was up to a million!" " Yea?" "So you're proud of that?" " Yea, I'm proud." "...35, 67 and 84." "Did you hear that, Papi?" "Those are the numbers!" " What numbers?" " The lottery ticket I bought." " Anti!" " l'm not kidding!" "I remember the numbers." " Show me the ticket!" " It's here by the seat!" " l stuck it in your license." " My license?" "Then the goat ate it." "Fuck the lottery!" "Get the money back from the Mongols, we'll buy material and start the lining." "Zoli I swear!" "Papi don't you remember?" "We gotta get it out..." "How?" "We'll kill it, then open the stomach." "Do herbivores digest slowly?" "Faster than omnivores, I'm sure." "They need strong stomach acid to digest everything." "It's not so hard to digest plants." "Vegetarians digest things easily." "We'd like to ask you something." " Can I help you?" " No, we've got a question." "The butcher may set a trap for them and call the police." "It might be illegal to kill a goat." "The animal rights people are very tough." "If you have to kill an animal for some reason they get really upset." "Maybe they'll put them in jail." "You slit her throat with a sharp knife like a chicken." "Or you can take a sharp axe and strike her right between the horns." "Then hold her up to let the blood." "And where's the stomach?" "You can't make tripe from goat stomach!" "We were just curious." "It's right here by the udder." " Where?" " If you look from behind, it's after the udder and before the heart." "Oh." "Thanks." "Goodbye." "Goodbye." "It's not here." "Look around the flat." "It must be here somewhere." "I've gotta go now!" "Okay. I'll tell you if I find it." "Sit down!" "What's going on?" "Your goat ate my driving license along with a lottery ticket!" " And?" " We're going to give you this goat in exchange." "Why?" "So we can take out the ticket." "How?" "We're going to slaughter the goat." "You can't do that!" "We'll give you some of our winnings." "Did you win?" "Uh-huh." "But the goat isn't even mine." "No problem." "You can't tell them apart," "Ficu won't even notice." " How will you kill it?" " With a knife." " Have you got a knife?" " No." "Because Daniel's got a very sharp Samurai sword." "D'you want it?" "Yea, that'd be great." "That's it." "OK who's doing it?" "Papi, you're the strongest." "Ah, I'm not doing it." "The butcher told you guys how!" "He didn't know exactly." "So how are we going to know?" "I'll get the sword." "Could I have the sword, please!" "Let's go!" "I'll get some water!" "He digested it!" "Okay, then let's go, and you've got to ask for the money back!" "Wait, wait!" "I found something hard!" "A key." "What kind of key?" "A car key." "What's hanging from it?" "It's a Ganesha." "Ficu got the goat from the Krishnas!" "Who ís ít?" "Góranga." "Excuse me, I fell asleep." "It happens to everybody." "When I was a pastor I slept on the car bonnet while it was still warm." "Who are you?" "I've never seen you before." "We're from the high council." "Back from training in Burma." "High council?" "What's that?" " Just a joke." "We're teachers." " Did you meet the great ones?" "Course." "We stayed with them." "With one of them." "I hope to go there sometime." "Where's the fair-haired pastor who was here before you?" "Well..." "He left an insulting letter, shaming Ganesha and the leaders." "He went off to the French Foreign Legion." "It sometimes happens that a colleague's inner peace is upset." "But I'm sure that one day he'll return to Ganesha." "Góranga, we must leave." "Góranga." "Let's go up on the roof for the phone and figure things out." "Do you know what a ganesha is?" "Yes." "I can find excuses for not doing the chimney, but if the money's gone, we're sunk." "You've gotta ask for it back." "Oh, come on, those Mongols are deadly dangerous!" "The guys are waiting on the roof." "We've got the Audi, we've got everything!" "I can't believe it!" "You'll ask for it back." "No." " Where are the Mongols?" " It's over for today." " Hey..." " What?" "That's Pejker's wife!" "Yea, she poured water on me when I fainted." "When did you faint?" "Today, when I lost." " Why was she here?" " She was outjogging." " And what did you tell her?" " Nothing." "Hi, Zoli!" "Hi, Andrea!" " What are you doing here?" " Nothing." "I'm competing tonight, and I'm so nervous that I had to drink a shot of something." " What time?" " In half an hour." " Feeling better now?" " Uh-huh." "Pejker called to say he'll try to make it." "Can you guys take me, I've had one too many?" "We've gotta go back to the roof, we promised Pejker we'd finish it." "Give me a lift or I'll get you fired!" "Hello!" "Hello!" "I've got it!" "We were lining a chimney on the roof, and the phone fell down." "I picked it up." "It was down here." " Líke a cup oftea?" " Yes, please." "Híbíscus or plaín?" "Well, plaín, wíth sugarand lemon." "I've got honey." "Thanks." "Who's that grasshopper type?" "The Italian Minister of Social Welfare." "Don't you recognize him?" "Oh, yea, sure, maybe, I don't really know politicians." "And that one?" "The Swedish Chief of Staff." "The colours are good." "I paint too." "Can I show you?" "This is a deforestation..." "And this is the MO Moto_ay." "That's good." "This is a forest fire." "Devastation of the River Tisza." "This is the Paks nuclear power plant." "River devastation again..." "Nagymaros Dam Project..." "Paks again..." "You only do landscapes?" "Yea my subject lately is the environment." "I can't take the abstract any more." "It's so alien." "It's just supemicial to me." "Anything goes, so long as you have a moral standpoint." "The form will take shape an_ay." "Yes." "I also felt like I had to do something the moment I saw the MO under construction." "Those are great, so dynamic." "They have strength." "They do," "but I have my doubts about panels sometimes." "I've been thinking beyond things recently." "One day I realized that whatever you do is political." "Since then you've painted these?" " Yes." " Do you sell?" "I haven't got the stomach for that whole thing, I'd rather starve." "True, most people do it out of routine." "It's not worth losing sleep over." "In the end it's just you and matter." "That's what it boils down to." "Are you the emotional type?" "I mean, when you stand there with your brush..." "Have you got a picture on your TV?" "I don't know, I don't have a TV." "Then it doesn't matter." "There's a guy here who was up on the roof." " Did you move the antenna?" " Maybe, I don't know." "Then go up and check, okay?" " Bye." " Bye." "We'll have a picture soon, my girl!" "I'll tell Zsolti..." "We'll watch together." "We're getting a picture, we can watch the memorial!" "What d'you want?" "Get out, I'm working!" "How dare you speak like that?" " What did you do, you git?" " l'm sorry, son." " Why did you come in?" " It was an accident." " Fuck it!" " How dare you?" "!"

"Are you by car?" "Well..." " Where do you want to go?" " To the Army Hospital."
