""Friendship is one soul in two bodies"" "said a Greek philosopher ages ago, certainly gay." "Had the wise man known women, he would have also known that two bodies are not enough." "The story of Laydees, girls from one block, having New Year's parties in the summer for 25 years, proves clearly that friendship is a single soul dwelling in four bodies." "Who are these people?" "What time is it?" " 9 p.m." " shall we rehearse?" " Lucy, please!" " We do it every year." "You force us to do dumb rehearsals." "Life's spontaneous!" "Stop being a brat, it's tradition." "Yeah!" "Gosia, you start, you're the oldest." "Bitch." "This year like each year actually I'd Iike a lovely little baby." " But a boy or a girl?" " God, I'm going to puke..." "triplets, 1 of each sex." " I want to get married this year!" " What?" " Get married." " I'm going to puke." "Didn't you learn?" "I was young, pregnant and in an ugly dress." "I'II invest in new breasts!" "Fuck, it even rhymes." "You're crazy." "You have tits!" "You have tits, I have itsy-bitsy zits." "In a year girls, I'II stand here with a pair of totally huge knockers!" " Sounds convincing." " And you?" "And me nothing." "I feel good just as it is." "She's lying." "She's dreaming of love..." " You crazy?" " I can see it in her eyes." "I'II avoid this love shit too." "Shags are ok, love is not." "Love's slavery, tears and gnashed cunts!" " From the bible?" " It is, from the Apocrypha." "Caesar, that New Year's is a crazy idea." " We thought the invite was a joke." " I'm not in this, Iegate Darius!" "My wife and friends've celebrated New Year's in August for 25 years." " Great!" " I'd say." "Where have you been?" "Caught by a UFO?" " Yeah, in the loo." " I hate it when you disappear." "Next time I'II take you with me, and then..." " Stop it!" " Stop what?" " You look like a million bucks!" " people are looking." "Let them look!" "Let them look and envy me." "Let's dance, I'II do such a Fred Astaire that feathers'II fly." "Artur?" "You should be here now at the New Year's party!" "Honey, we've talked about this, it's not a New Year's party!" "Besides, it's the miracle on the VistuIa, the anniversary banquet." "It's extremely important!" "Honey, how extremely?" "Why am I not there?" "You chose the Laydees." "Honey, I chose you a Iong time ago." "I'II be back in about 1 0... no, in 1 2 days!" "So, please, be in shape, you hear me?" "I don't know, exercise or something!" "Drink milk!" "Eat, you know..." "proteins!" "In eggs!" " They're supposed to be best!" " I promise to be in top form." " Love you, bye." " Love you too." "Did you see how Marek wore me out?" "A demon." "How long till midnight?" "An oar." "You're an oar yourself." "One oar... two oar... oar after oar... and bang!" "Twenty-five years." " Whoa, a quarter of a century." " A quarter today, a half tomorrow..." "And life will pass like a flash in the cunt." "And it's boring, too, isn't it?" "1 5 AUGUST 25 years earlier" " Boring, isn't it?" " Yeah..." "In general, it's developing like this." " It develops..." " Don't correct her." " You're too small." " Right, and too dumb." "She's not small." "She's already kissed!" "Yuck!" "If that's true, then you're disgusting." "We've got no choice, apart from them, none of the girls live here." " And why do you need us?" " For the New Year's Eve." " For what?" " An adult's party." "Stop being a know-aII." "It's a party for adults, when they feel bored." "At midnight you make a wish, it comes true next year." "New Year's Eve is a grand moment." "And that's why you have to behave like true ladies." "Luœka, show them!" "L-a-y-d-e-e-s..." "That's in english." "These are ladies, precisely." "Which is us." "From today on, for ever." "LAYDEES" " Give it to me, you drunkard!" " You're worse than Artur." "For the better..." "Oh, he's calling!" "How are you honey?" "Gosia, hello?" "It's Istvan!" " Istvan." " Who?" "I am awfully sorry..." "What's up?" "I was hoping you'd come but Artur told me everything." " It's stupid with this funeral..." " With what?" "well, Artur said you had to stay in Warsaw because of the funeral..." "Aaa, my close friend died..." "well, not my close friend but her husband, but you know how it is." "One for all, and all for one, or something..." "Goœka, it's very loud and cheerful there..." "It's because, he wanted it to be a kind of Indian ritual." "Loud, cheerful, everyone's feeling awfully sad, though." "And Gosia, will you come to brussels?" "Lucy, I must go to the loo..." "I feel sick!" "...Gosia?" "hello?" "You woke up JuIeczka and Darek's wife's taking him home?" "Why take a kid to New Year's?" "Was "take your infant and your breast milk" on the invite?" "Or "we'II provide you with service on leather sofas"?" "It's not a real New Year's!" "Korba!" "Look who's talking!" "A man who runs in a toga and says he's a Roman!" "Stop smoking!" "You stink of fags." "You know what, sugar pots, I'II go and have a dance on the table, ok?" "You got it all mixed up!" "Have your Romans, leave my New Year's alone!" "It's the New Year's to me!" " I worked 6 years in London!" " By the sink?" "As a graphic designer!" "Just back and I'm looking around, 'cause I don't want to take just anything." "I guarantee you, sweetie pie, that this is not just anything!" "So stop blabbing and start dancing!" "Fucking Romans!" "How close is the fall of your empire!" "Fuck, I think you've mistaken the ladies, Mareczek!" "Monia, listen, it's not Iike that!" "We want to get married." " Shut up!" " I'II help you:" "You walked, and fell right between her legs!" "Monia, please don't say anything!" "Monia!" "But you're feeling alright now, right?" "Get undressed," "Edgar..." "I won't do anything to you." " Erwin." "My name is Erwin." " Whatever, man." "You can even be" "Lech Jaros³aw to me now..." "Lech Jaros³aw..." " Bang." " I can see!" "Korba, get dressed and say goodbye!" "Now Korba!" "He'II cool down." " You have to recycle waste." " You must bring it round first." " Bring it round and kill it." " Great plan." "well, wake up, bitch!" "Marek?" " Ok, now you've gone too far!" " You know already?" "You confessed, right?" "And just before midnight!" "That bastard, eh?" " I almost died." " You can take it?" "Easy, Korba!" "I'm shaking." "The most wonderful day of my entire life!" "What?" "!" " The one, wild and divine!" " I can't keep the fuck up anymore." "Marek has just proposed!" " Goœka!" "You'II be bridesmaids!" " I'II be a maid, too?" " Happy?" " It's great." "Have a kid at once!" "Jesus!" "Fuck!" "You vanished like cinderella." "The fairies helped me find you sooner than in the fairytale." "FairytaIe?" "Oh, I know what tale you're talking about!" "The one in which you first touch me with your magic wand, your laser sword and then I, of course, weep with pleasure, then I spend the rest of my Iife praying for you not to get your midlife crisis too soon," "and you come home wearing a Hawaiian shirt, and our friends' daughter saying:" "honey, meet my new wife, but oh, don't worry," "I won't throw you out on the street." "You can still live with us if you do all the chores." "You can shove this tale up my ass, Edgar!" "Erwin." "Whatever... you..." "pork chop clown!" "girls, this will be a wonderful year!" "Laydees!" "The Laydees believed that the wish made on New Year's would come true very soon." "Korba was doing best." "Hunting down her prey." "She rested during work to have strength for the next hunts." "Editing for a glossy magazine, a job she deeply despised." "Goœka was obsessively watching her fertile days." "When they came, she flew to brussels, where her husband, a member of parliament, was living." "She was trying not to notice Artur's devotion to work, and he disappeared in ever more enigmatic subcommittees." "Monia wanted to enlarge her breasts feeling she wasn't worth loving." "She never knew how to be happy." "Her rich eccentric husband, who thinks he is the Iast heir to the Roman Empire, bought her a sports club." "£ucja looked for a man who would be a father to her son." "Marek, a sexy education curator, seemed the perfect candidate." "However, he had one flaw of which £ucja had no idea - he loved all the women in the world just too much... 27 AUGUST" "There, finally!" "Hi, honey." "Cut it out, Szymek is here." "Cheers, young lad!" "I said "Cheers, young lad!"" "I'm going to play football." "How about the film with Szyc?" " With Szyc?" "Come on." " Then maybe..." "I can't go today." " You promised!" " I know I promised, honey." " But unfortunately, again..." " B³a¿ej?" " Another attack." " What this time?" " The washing machine." " God!" "Yeah, and about the thing..." "would you be so kind?" " You know..." " Don't mention it!" "Shirts sixty degrees, socks and sweaters thirty." " Shirts 60, socks 30." " Don't mix the colours." " Yeah, I know, now I know." " Thanks." "Mum..." "Stop whining!" "I'II leave in a second." " It's not about the bathroom." " What is it?" "sleep with who you want." "But must you mix our undies?" "It's humiliating for me!" "Szymek, it's not how you think it is." " Yeah, right..." " Marek is a good man." " AII heroes are dead mum." " I'm serious, honey." "He's sacrificed for years." " A hero!" " He is!" "I've seen it!" "B³a¿ej is in a wheelchair, Marek has to feed him, calm him down." " Change his diapers." " It's dreadful!" "B³a¿ej has anxiety attacks." "He cries for days, he yells at washing machines." "I saw it!" "Honey, it was awful..." "So maybe we could help Marek with his laundry?" "You have to be a bit human honey." "I'm sorry..." " A new one?" " Yeah." " It's illegal?" " legal, Wojtek's." " Wojtek who?" " I told you!" "He moved in recently." " You didn't say anything." " I did, but you didn't listen!" " I play football with him." " What?" "Exercise is good for you." " I Iove you." " I know, mum!" "I know you know." "You're so scrupulous, we had to delay the press again!" " There were errors!" " No!" "millions of women wait for the new issue and you're talking about commas?" "Screw the commas, no one else in this country knows where to put them!" "What grand piano?" "!" "Are you mad?" "!" "I didn't order a piano!" "I'm telling you I don't give a fuck about pianos!" "Later!" "I don't know how later!" "You call and find out!" "people are vultures!" "They ring and say there's piano, and to come sign the bill!" "completely mad!" " Did you buy a piano?" " Do I Iook like a moron?" "!" "Tomek bought it, dumbass." " I hope I didn't disturb you?" " No, never!" "We're just chatting a bit about work." "A VIP pass for a year, all inclusive." " I shouldn't." " We have new treatments!" "Asian peeling knocks off 1 0 years." " I really shouldn't." " It's an honour for my club." "And for my magazine which I have the honour of running." "Can I take my friend for two-three hours?" " You're most welcome." " wonderful." " See you at the club." "Bye!" " Goodbye!" "Excuse me." "They slipped out..." "Without the passes, the bitch would have fired me long ago." "You should be the editor!" "The chairman is eating out of Tomek's hand." "Writing is worse than correcting this shit." "Korba, you're stupid." "And Marek?" " Maybe Asian peeling?" " I'm serious!" " So am I." " We have to tell Lucy." " And make her life miserable." " Don't exaggerate." " I'II buy her a present." " Maybe give her the piano!" "Oh, fuck!" "I forgot they're standing outside!" " Tomek's problem!" " Tomek's away!" "He's on his survival camp." "Drinking dirty water, fucking around with swords and no phone, moron!" "Speaking of morons, we have to talk to Marek." "Jesus, what will he tell you?" ""It's not what you think!" "I don't know what got into me!" "I Iove Lucy"?" "I Iove their excuses." "That's my little fetish." "But maybe...?" "I know!" "We'II make him sign a prenuptial!" " call Goœka, we need a lawyer." " Goœka is in brussels." " Artur is fertilizing her." " Again?" " hello?" " Hi, hi!" "I'm so glad you came!" "Yeah, I came..." "Hi, Istvan, how are you?" "You want to talk to Artur?" "No..." "Yes, yes!" "To Artur!" "What time is it?" "Artur is taking a bath." "Oh." "He's taking a bath..." " And how are you, Gosia?" " Me?" "I'm fine!" "I'm pregnant!" "Artur didn't tell me anything!" "I've been pregnant since 1 2 minutes ago!" "Bye!" " Who called?" " Wrong number." " Who?" " Wrong number." " How are you feeling, honey?" " Fantastic." "girl, we had an appointment!" "Move, move!" "Damn..." " Good morning!" " He won't answer." " Is he a deaf mute?" " No, a Spanish juggIer." "Where the fuck did you find him?" "At a sale..." " Sweetie!" " Daddy." " You remembered about me at last..." " actually," " I was at Korba's place..." " Good morning, KaroIina." "Maybe you'd persuade her to come to my place sometime." " Dad!" "I do come." " But she comes." " Who is that?" " It's..." " A friend." " A Latino?" "I hate Latinos." " No." "Spanish." " The same scum..." " Dad!" "It's Korba's friend!" " Rather a one-time tour." " So, we have to be going, right..." " So do I. To the housing office." "Goodbye." "I forgot your mother's affair with a tenor from Argentina." "He was a baritone..." "A fucking baritone from the Pampas." "It's not Iike that, girls." "It's not what you think." "I don't know why, I Iove £ucja." " I swear I'II kick the shit out of him." " girls, show some empathy." "exactly!" "Empathy." "It's some kind of Asian soup?" "I know only about Asian peeling." "It's my brother..." "Yeah..." "He's got tits the size of melons and his name is Joanna." "It really is my brother." " He's disabled." " Does it run in your family?" "Jesus Christ, B³a¿ej." "Korba, help!" "A towel!" "Now give me the syringe!" "And the ampoule!" "There!" "girls, wait in the other room!" "Let's go." "Now calm down, calm down!" "Shut up." "It's been like this for 1 3 years, and it's getting worse and worse." "The doctors say that it's a matter of months." "I can't..." "I can't stand this mood swing anymore." "I admit sometimes I go insane and I get lost, but I'm not a bad man." "believe me, I'm not." "Fuck, he's screwed." "Empathy: an Asian soup..." "God, we're such bitches!" "I thought she'd have a heart attack!" "A heart attack with no heart?" "I don't have a heart." "MiIena no brain." "Proofread this immediately!" "Aunt Korba has handled worse situations." "It will be ready in a minute, hun!" "What are you doing here, Edgar..." "Erwin?" "I'm looking at you." "I've noticed." "Care to elaborate?" " Did you think I'd let you disappear?" " Yes!" "I won't let." "And?" "Are you some kind of B-rate movie psycho?" "will you stalk me, give flowers, search my garbage, scare away boyfriends?" "Maybe you'II slash me right away?" "What are your plans, Edgar." "Erwin?" "I will marry you." "You really are a psycho." "A funny one, but a psycho." " I'm serious." " So am I." "I'm not sure whether you've noticed but I work here." "W-O-R-K..." "And today we've got our little office star-fucking-wars." "In a moment a bitchy Death Star will come and if I don't send the fucking pages I'II be antimatter." "Listen to Korba's advice and fuck off." " You're incredible!" " Do I stutter?" "There you are at last!" "This is Edgar..." "Erwin..." "And this is our editor-in-chief, whom I told you about..." "Korba, don't be an idiot." "I'm not." "Edgar is here by accident." "I sometimes think it's you who's here by accident." "Mister Erwin Tuszyñski is certainly not." "He's been employed as our art director today..." "We are very lucky to have such an experienced designer join our team!" "Sure." "Hi, darling..." "How was your day?" "Ok." "When did you come back?" "Three hours ago." "And who won?" "It's been known for 2000 years that we have conquered Thrace." " You're quitting this, aren't you?" " Why would you think that?" "Your piano, I thought the barbarians are over." " A lifetime isn't enough." " I bought it?" " Who else?" " You..." "No way." "I hate playing the piano." "I told you a 1 00 times!" "Who the fuck brought this can?" "Yes." " Monisia?" " Monisia?" " Let me in, it's me!" " Who me?" " What do you mean, who?" "Nina!" " Nina?" "What Nina?" "What Nina, hun?" "Mummy!" "Monia's mother arrived after seventeen years, with nothing but a grand piano." "She announced that until she made up with her father, she would move in." "Monia was furious with rage but didn't dare to refuse." "No one ever refused her mother anything." "monthly reproductive sex was far from spontaneous." "In spite of this, Goœka loved Artur like always and suffered when he stopped noticing her." "She drowned her sorrows in a glass which was getting bigger and bigger with every month." "£ucja washed Marek's underwear with the patience of a saint and accepted the wedding date changes." "She didn't notice that Wojtek - he son's new friend - was twenty-five years older than Szymek." "Korba was constantly proving Erwin that working together makes things worse, and completely ignored him." "Secretary Marysia, for whom Korba is the ideal woman, was gazing at Erwin with undeniable fascination." "1 3 OCTOBER" "No, KIaudiusz, I can talk." "This evening?" "Maybe, maybe..." "You, too, the way you Iike it most..." "Ok, bye!" "Women's Day was in March, my birthday is in February, the Assumption is in August." " It's a miss." " But..." "Let me finish." "I don't give a fuck if you love me nut!" " But don't mess up my Iife!" " You really think I'm such a nut?" "That I Iove them all?" "Yes, MiIena." "I'm coming!" "I'm coming!" "So, how did it go?" " She was exceptionally nice." " I knew it was a great idea!" "With the roses!" "people are friendly in rooms with flowers!" " You did this?" " Yeah!" " I'II remember..." " Thanks, Korba!" "Surpriiiiiiiiiiise!" " Aren't you happy?" " I'm waiting for someone." "Phew!" "I thought that look was for us." "You'II be stunned at what we got Goœka for her trip!" " I certainly was!" " A rubber black man!" " A piece of his equipment!" " Miiiiiiiiissed!" "Look!" "Monia told me to light up my relationship." "With this!" " She doesn't like it." " Perversion's her game." "It's enough for Artur." "It's about his sperm reaching the finishing line." "If they don't move?" "We'II buy a doll with huge tits?" " well?" " It doesn't make any sense." " They'II split." " Stop being hysterical, be brave!" "This is if the thong doesn't work." "It's so pretty!" "Gift stickers, right?" "I'II buy something at the airport for Artur." "Cigars or whisky," " and I'II stick this little heart." " These are pasties to dance stupid!" "No blue ones?" "I Iook better in blue." "Sorry, I've got company." "Professor?" "KIaudiusz Jedynak?" "Grade eight b!" "Professor, had I known, I would have brought flowers!" " I'm a mammoth." " I did the mouse prank!" " I'm touched." " I was so in love with you!" "Everyone loved £ucja, me the most!" "alright, kid, tomorrow is teacher's day, you'II have a date with the professor, goodbye!" "Korba, am I dreaming?" "Did you sleep with my student?" "With a kid, a kid!" "I taught him eugIena, meiosis, paramecia." " He remembered the eugIena." " A kid." "But he's just a kid!" " What that kid can do!" " Don't tell me!" "I can't hear you!" "Can't hear you." "We once went to a zoo in BaIi." " I know that story already!" " Quiet!" "And there was a huge hanging bat." "About... something about the size of a big cat." "Upside down with an erection." " I'II get some fresh air." " Don't interrupt!" "Go on!" "And that bat, imagine this, was giving itself head..." "I thought I would drop dead!" "I didn't know where to look!" " Wiseass." " It didn't feel embarrassed." "I won't even ask..." "Did it come?" "please!" "Not when I was there." "The worst thing is that I have this huge, enormous, giant ass," "which is totally out of control." "I have my motor behaviours, it has its own..." "For instance, when I walk down a corridor" "I feel it viciously dangling behind." "You can generally kiss my ass." "Each day even more." "And because of this I have to buy my dresses a size bigger." "That's nothing." "I extract cellulite from air." "My organism can catch fats essential for the existence of cellulite just from air," " and turn them into a fat lining." " But you're thin as a rake!" "No way, hun!" "I have cellulite everywhere except under my eyes." "This is physically impossible... once again." "To mistake a grandma for a wolf!" "That girl must have been either totally dumb, or must have come from a very, very ugIy-Iooking family..." "And if men are from Mars, they should do back there." "You know, since I'm with Artur I haven't farted!" " Does he forbid you?" " No, but..." "There's no connection." "We pass each other somehow." "You're too tense!" "Too much calculation, no spontaneity!" "Being spontaneous is really important." "Hey, when do you ovulate?" "In three days I'm flying to see Artur." "You are not!" "Korba!" "Hand me the laptop, we'II rebook it for today!" "She's right!" "Be spontaneous!" "A FEW HOURS LATER" "Gosia?" "I feel awfully stupid." "I don't know what to say." "Truth is best." "My flat is being renovated and..." "Artur gave me the keys so I couId take a shower..." " You think I'm an idiot?" " really," "Artur gave me the keys in the summer..." "So I would water" " his plants..." " Water the plants..." "And he has my key..." "'Cause... 'Cause when I'm away he feeds my cats." "Feeds your cats." "Charming..." "And where is he now?" "Feeding the cats or in the shower?" "Gosia, no!" "He's in Strasbourg." "In Strasbourg and he told me you'd be here in two days." "Change of plans." "Gosia, are you..." " angry at me?" " should I be?" " Gosia!" "Anything for you." " Istvan, please." "But really." "I want to be alone..." "Just go!" "I'II catch a bus and I'm coming..." "What cab, auntie?" "!" "I don't have money for cabs!" " Bye!" "Sorry." " I understand..." " So what happened next?" " Nothing." "Amazing, huh?" "I wouldn't have believed it." "I saw something like that not in BaIi but in our zoo." " A bat, too?" " No, no!" "A chimpanzee." "Oh, he's coming!" "Hi, darling!" " Nice flowers!" "For your hard work?" " They're ArIetta's." "These are mine..." "I have to take a bus to the hospital." "They'II be ruined!" "You'II miss the doctor!" "Marek will take you." "Right, honey?" "But what?" "Take ArIetka, ok?" "That is, ok..." "A man's got to do... so get in." "Thanks." "Bye." "Bye, darling." "Happy teacher's day!" "call me "auntie"!" "hello, Artur!" "I don't give a damn about where you are!" "But me and my ovulation are waiting for you..." "You're waiting?" "For me?" "In brussels?" " Today?" " Right now!" "I'm having this autumn's most important conference!" ""Preventing the Extinction of Europe."" "tell them you're leaving for practical training." "You have 1 5 minutes to get here!" "I don't give a fuck how." "Bye." "No more, you won't eat supper." " One." " No!" "One..." "Good evening, professor!" "will you stalk me all day long?" "actually I'm going to see Korba." "We've got things to catch up on." " Who's that dumbbeII, mum?" " Oh, nobody." "An old student of mine." "What is he doing at Korba's?" "She's giving him extra lessons." " What lessons?" " French." "This is nothing..." "She screamed with that Latino." " Want some more cheese?" " No, dad." "Thanks." " It's very good cheese." " I know." " The best!" " I know, dad, I know..." "Your mother had a meeting with me." "She wants to move back in..." "You shouldn't agree." "She doesn't have a heart." "I know, sweetie..." "I know." "So, thanks!" "Bye!" " My time too." " ArIetka's cool, isn't she?" " Who?" " The girl you gave a lift today." "well, I don't know." "Kind of thin." "Can't you stay today?" "With pleasure, hun, you know..." "But B³a¿ej..." "Got to go." "I don't know..." "It's all this stress!" "Sure." "Sure..." "Stress..." "I care, too, you know!" "But this is not a lab!" "I..." "I need... an atmosphere." " What do you need?" " Atmosphere!" "What the hell is this?" "Champagne, strawberries, incense, candles..." "I've got fucking g-strings up my ass!" " Not that kind of atmosphere." " I know!" "But I won't get myself an extra dick!" "WARSAW" "PIonk!" "I know how you feel..." "I feel the same." "only moments are important in life and this moment is ours." "I'II shag your pussy so hard, your brains will come out." "Leave the pussies alone." "They have weak lungs." " And how are your lungs?" " Everything's very fine with me." "And some things are even better." " What about genes?" " Huge." "Firm and ruthless..." "That's what they all say." "I'II risk it." "But you need to get me pregnant." " But-not pregnant?" " Yes, pregnant!" "The procedure is the same, the finishing line is different." "But, Iike... straight away?" "No foreplay?" "No time, my ovulation ends soon!" "It's some kind of a programme, right?" "Candid camera?" "Where are the cameras?" "Me and my beaver are in under." "One condition:" "right here right now." "We enter the spaceship and land at your place." "well, not my place, because I Iive with my disabled brother." "What is he suffering from?" "If it's mental, then no." "That's genetic." "I don't want a murderer or politician!" "No, it's ok..." "A mere old paraIytic!" "Quite handsome for a disabled guy..." "It was Marek!" "I was a bit drunk, tired, pissed even..." " I know Marek." " Pissed?" "Because of the g-strings!" "I knew Monia had overdone it!" "You hear me?" "!" "The guy says he lives with his disabled brother!" "Where do we know that from?" "I saw his photo!" "Damn me if that wasn't Marek!" "There, he looked like this." " Its not Marek." " You think I can't recognize him?" "Even if he does this?" "Wait, wait..." "It just occurred to me." "It's him!" "No way!" "I'm telling you, you got it all mixed up!" "This is B³a¿ej, Marek's brother!" "No, honey." "It's that guy from the bar." "believe me, he wasn't sitting in a wheelchair." "It's all true!" "I saw it myself." "You saw it and didn't tell me?" "Fuck!" "I'm so alone with this!" "We're such idiots." "I even felt sorry for that S.O.B.!" "You knew, too?" "!" "I had no idea he had such an impatient dick!" "I can get you a new guy in 2 days!" "Good idea!" "Cut the old one into pieces and trash them!" "This disabled brother story isn't for just Lucy!" " What?" " There are more idiots like you." " Do you want to kill her?" " Me?" "Rather him!" "Don't worry." "We'II get him!" "There must proof in his place." " How do you know?" " Murders leave traces!" " We have to copy his keys." " He never leaves his keys." " call him and tell him to come!" " Sure, and tell him what?" "You'II say... not." "tell him you're hearing voices from the loo." "Korba, you're totally nuts!" "I swear, 2 years ago my pipe started resonating." "It got Radio Maryja." "A voice said "Repent of your sins"." " Hey." " Hey, honey." " Your toilet's talking?" " could you check it?" "I flooded my neighbours once." "A drink?" "No time!" "I'II have a quick look!" "To your neighbour's." "But wait!" " Dywanik." " Divan maker?" "I've got a bed." " Marek Dywanik!" " Oh, sorry." "Wojtek Rawski." " How's your loo?" " What do you mean?" "Anything coming out of it?" "Voices?" " Grobik £ucja, hello." " Wojtek Rawski, nice to meet you." "No, no, it's nothing." "My pipe is resonating..." " I hope I didn't flood you, did I?" " No, no, no." "Not even a drop..." "Thank God!" "We won't disturb anymore!" "Goodbye." "Ok." "Show me the loo and I'm off!" " Maybe a drink?" " I'm in a hurry!" "well, cheers then!" " Are you out of your mind?" " It's just a shirt!" "Just a shirt?" "I Iook like... fuck!" "I need to wash it out quickly!" "And now it won't come off!" " Why so many glasses?" " Laydees..." "You've been drinking since morning?" "Fuck, I'II be late." " With whom?" " The minister!" "I'II look like scum!" "I don't get it." "I don't know?" "I only did this..." "Fucking shit!" "Are you crazy?" "I'm sorry!" "I'm so sorry!" "Its all due to global warming!" "Due to what?" "What's got into you today?" "Get it off quickly, I'II wash it." " Yeah, I'm getting it off." " Sit down." "Look what I found under Szymek's bed!" "God, kids grow fast!" " Here." " Thanks." "Done?" "salt!" "I forgot about salt!" "It comes off best with salt." "Fuck!" "Are you finishing?" "Just a moment!" " well, fight!" " It's barely coming off." "Hi, love." "We're having a little mess here..." "No, I'm at the education office." "Yeah..." "I'm doing what I can." "It's the kid!" "The kid's calling!" "You're crazy?" "We almost got caught!" "Yeah, I'II be Cubaaa and my fideIIo will sort out your naughty havana." "The locksmith's gone!" "Whoring around town!" "Keep him inside for a while." " She doesn't know how."

" Ok, I'II get them myself!" " Oh, yes!" "Yes..." "Get..." "Woman, I told you I don't have time." "Not even a minute?" "Not a quick second for your Samanta?" " Luœka, what have you been taking?" "!" " For Samanta, a very, very bad cowgirl..." "Luœka!" "It was open." "I knocked, but..." "No, not as loud as you, I guess..." "And we got that cream you said you needed at once..." " The important one!" " Ok..." "Great!" "I'm glad!" "Leave it in the toi-Iet!" "And..." "Turn off the water!" "Is the coast clear?" "Yes, minister, sir..." "Everything according to plan." "I'm sending my regards, too..." "talk to you soon." "Excuse me, deputy minister, where did we stop?" "That you'II fuck my brains out?" "More or less..." "Let's go to my place." "Your brother?" "My brother?" "He's having treatments." "Oh you're quick." "Ok..." "I'II show you something." "tell me what it is." "You see..." "It's not that simple." "Come in." " There's nothing here." " Give me 1 5 minutes." "That S.O.B. hid it." "well, well, well..." "I didn't know you liked diving." "I Iike to dip sometimes." "Deep?" "It depends with whom." " would you Iike some tea?" " No." "Then I'II make you some." "Bingo!" "What?" "No, no way, you don't think that..." " There's nothing in there." " Did he ever tape you?" " No way!" "Are you mad?" "!" " Lucy!" "Ok!" "Once!" "But only once!" "Did you want to show me... bats?" "You know what bats can do?" "especially the ones from BaIi." "balls?" " No, from BaIi." " The islands?" "Not only do they have huge really huge dongs... they can give themselves blow jobs." " What can they do?" " well, themselves..." "You know, themselves." "They give themselves head!" "The kind of partner I'm looking for." "itself." "Jesus, my brother, I need to pick him up." "B³a¿ej... but B³a¿ej!" "B³a¿ej!" " 1 2 tapes and nothing." " Don't give up." "Goœka." "Right?" "I think I was too hard on him, he ran away!" " B³a¿ej is coming!" " Just this last one." " "little Red Riding Hood"!" " I swear, last one!" "voila!" "Coffee, Iike you wanted." "We're not sitting here to have coffee," "are we?" "So what is it, cutie?" "well..." "It's about that thing at £ucja's place." "I know, I know..." "Not bad, eh." "You liked it." "Very impressive..." "Impressive will be our next encounter." "Anaerobic descent into the Marianas Trench of pleasure..." " I see you Iike to play rough." " You have no idea how!" "You'II kill me!" "You pathological seeder of sperm!" " Oh, holy fucking shit!" " It's your kitchen." " That gal from the New Year's." " ArIetta." "I got his phone, but he got away!" "Leave fast!" "Ok!" "Got to run!" "I'm not going anywhere!" "I'II wait and kill the bastard!" "personally!" "The Laydees' revenge is best served cold!" "Good morning." "I'm calling from curator Marek Dywanik's office." "Right, right, your son's!" "I'm sorry." "I'm calling from the cleaner's!" "Wrong number." "He's got a mother!" "There's another one." "Good morning, miss..." "Miss MarioIka?" "I am Marek Dywanik's friend..." "Did you sleep with him?" "No, no, this is not a joke!" "Marek Dywanik slept with 7 other women at the same time." "I have tapes you may want to watch." "Thank you very much." "welcome." "please come." " please, £ucja." " No." "ArIetka first." "It's her day." " alright, come." " So maybe I'II..." " please." " Thank you." "I assume you've already met Mister Dywanik." "Yes, yes, I've had the pleasure." "I hope that you'II be able to accurately judge the professional skills of Miss ArIetta." "Oh, that?" "My brother fell off his wheelchair and I tried to lift him." " It's nothing." " Don't be nervous!" "Mr. Dywanik is not a monster and he will certainly give you high marks, right £ucja?" "Yes, yes, beyond doubt..." "I'm worried about our equipment, it's a miracle we got this material." "We have faith in you!" "£ucja will also keep her fingers crossed, right?" "hello." "I'm calling you from..." "The venereal diseases ward." "God bless you!" "Maybe I'II hold this." "That's a bummer." "It's glue!" "God, there is truly no sanctity left, Father Director!" "lately the history teacher and now in the office?" "It's the end of the world." "Now what?" "!" "What about my class?" "!" "It's fucked!" "That is... if the principal..." "I've been preparing for so long." "How will he judge me now?" " I'II think of something." " Oh, yes, most certainly!" "AII that for nothing!" "The material, the film, everything!" "We'II manage, Miss ArIetka!" "£ucja can substitute for you this lesson." "Me?" "well, I don't know..." "final decision, and you, Miss ArIetta, calm down." "You'II get permission another time, right?" "Today I'm substituting for your professor, who... has problems keeping an eye on what is glued to her bum." "Not for the first time, actually..." "Ok." "The subject of this lesson is:" ""Faith in the animal Kingdom"." "Maybe you, Koz³owski." "Which animals form couples for their entire lives?" "In contrast to some of the education department staff." " elephants." " well done!" "When an elephant dies, her partner mourns for her." "What other animals?" "If no one knows, I'II tell you." "The second commonly known species is the swan." "basically, all animals having the least sense of decency" "form couples and stay faithful to each other!" "Lobsters, for instance!" "old Iobsters walk around the sea bed holding their pincers!" "They don't worry that some peep." "Excuse me, but that is unfair!" "Pipa pipa!" "[polish means too- pussy] Write that down." "Pipa pipa!" "Write "pipa pipa" down when your professor says so." "Toad from the pipidae family." "Known for its interesting form of reproduction." "Pipa pipa when spawning makes a somersault!" "And now a film about it, prepared by Miss ArIetka." "Switch it off." "Sorry, this can't be the right film!" "You saw that I got it from ArIetta!" "Thank you very much!" "Lucky you prick that I didn't show the holiday film!" "When you were dressed as Santa and she as a snowflake." "Come, come..." "We'II go to my place, everything will be alright." "Fuck!" "What's going on?" "!" "A tsunami?" "!" "Yeah, that brother of yours can go completely nuts." "We were waiting for you, Mareczek." "Hi, girls." "Revenge on Marek proved to be short-term pleasure." "Soon £ucja plunged into despair for months." "Her job became a constant ordeal and she wanted to quit it." "only Szymek was happy with Marek's absence;" "his fatherfigure was played by his neighbour from below, Wojtek." "Living with her mother was a nightmare for Monia." "She never felt so unattractive." "She forced Tomek to quit smoking buying him nicotine patches as a Christmas gift." "She also swore she would finally fix her breasts, to be larger than those which had fed her." "Artur never called." "Instead, Istvan did on Christmas Eve, wishing Goœka luck in love." "She thanked politely, although it wasn't easy knowing your husband preferred Christmas with a hairy-assed Portuguese." "Korba's men-hunting intensified, but together with each new prize her loneliness increased." "She cried the entire Christmas, blaming herself for not being strong enough." "The night leading from December 31 st to 1 st January, called New Year's Eve by everyone except the Laydees, they spent in a terrible mood." "The winter seemed to have no end." "And then, Iike a jack-in-the-box," "valentine's Day suddenly popped out of the calendar." "1 4 FEBRUARY valentine's Day" ""The world of Insects."" "Tybingowski!" "What insects were recently?" " Eeeh... well... bugs... which..." " Me..." "May I, miss?" " If you must." " The last lesson professor showed us African butterflies," "Cera condon..." "Acraea encedon, Rzepecka!" "Encedon!" "...and we learned that over ninety per cent of this species are females." "Because..." "Because..." "I don't remember..." "Because the males were eaten away by bacteria, yes?" "That's why they run after any male." "The wisdom of the species and despair of surviving!" " Professor said it!" " It's stupidity not wisdom." "butterflies have such little brains." "Bigger creatures behave equally stupid." "Next subject:" ""The reason for nailing some bugs' heads!"" "£ucja, enough." "Teaching children about the genitals of butterflies." "Moths, Father, OIcecIostera seraphica." "genitals on which you can play serenades for their beloved?" "Enough!" "I agree, some males definitely overdo it." "How to get through to you, £ucja?" "I know times are tough." "I understand, I'm human, too." "But the patron of our school!" "St. BoboIa, we have an obligation." "The intangible is most important, £ucja!" "I couldn't agree more, father." "My intangibles are at Ieast two sizes too small!" "I'm talking about moral intangibles!" "And stop annoying me!" "You are the only biologist, I couldn't fire if even I wanted." "I will try..." "Let us hurry to love people, They depart so quickly." " It's your handwriting!" " Mine." "Are you emotionally dysfunctional?" "For everybody on "valentine's Day"?" " only to you." " only me?" " I haven't heard that song before." " I just wanted to cheer you up." ""Hurry to love people, they depart so quickly"?" " The poem suits you." " Suits me?" "!" "You're completely mad!" " You're so lonely, I wanted..." " Rubbish!" "Start taking some pills." "You chose some fairly big implants, Miss Monika, so a nipple cut is out of the question." "We'II do it here..." "in the armpit..." " I'II be frozen?" " general anaesthesia." "general?" "I read in "Biba!" pamela Anderson needed 20 minutes for this." "Miss Monika, this is surgery and quite a serious one..." "Later you'II spend a few days in the clinic until the swelling goes down and there's no infection." "Then the sharp post-surgery pain should also subside." " How sharp?" " Let's not think about this now." "We will also see whether the stitches are not splitting or whether the implants move." "fortunately keIoids, breast milk and lack of feeling in the nipples or scars are much rarer!" "And the stitches will be gone after about a year!" "I'II have to think about this." "I'II call you!" " Sorry." " What's up, darling?" "I need Erwin for this page." "Three minutes, honey..." "How can I help you?" "help me?" "Rather thank me?" "But for what?" "For getting you out of her killer claws." "It's my little gift for valentine's Day." " What's wrong?" " I'm connecting it." " monthly reports?" " They're printing." "And the flowers?" "How about we go for coffee?" "I heard it hurts so much, you can't wipe your ass!" "Monia, I'm in the middle of a fire in the whorehouse, later!" "Pretty, no red or white ones?" "What are you doing?" " I came to see you, Gosia." " I can see that." " Straight from Amsterdam." " Something happened?" "Oh, definitely, Gosia..." "I Iove you!" "I've always loved you!" " Marry me!" " Istvan!" "I have a husband!" " He doesn't love you Iike I do..." " Istvan, you're embarrassing me!" "I won't leave until you say "yes"!" "Istvan, I work here, so get up and leave, because I..." "Get up!" "Good morning." "And this is... minister, sir... the representative of Hungarian farmers." "He is asking about the possibility of co-operation..." " I Iove you, my dear wife!" " I know." " I'II love you forever." " I know." " What's going on?" " Nothing." "I want to make love..." "Stop!" "You're heavenly!" "Water from Licheñ is heavenly..." "Hi, Lucy!" "No, she's not here." "Ok, I'II tell her." "Bye bye." " What is this?" " flowers." " They're not chips, what for?" " For your mother." "Are you crazy?" "flowers for my Mom on valentine's Day?" "She's living with us." "You know, I thought..." " It's not polite, is it?" " My flowers out of politeness, too?" "Why not buy the whole street flowers!" " darling..." " Give her flowers and marry her!" "Mother and daughter in one!" "It so fucking Roman!" "Since you've managed to get me out of the killer claws, maybe..." " Maybe?" " Can I invite you somewhere?" "Somewhere?" "For a cream puff..." " or jelly..." " jelly is made of hoofs." "Ok..." "I get it..." "Vodka." "Take me for a vodka, Edgar!" " Erwin." " Whatever." " Korba is over there." " I'm coming to see you." "To me?" "It's for you." "Jesus, what is it?" " A horse's heart..." " But what for?" "I thought you wouldn't want mine so it's the biggest I couId find!" "I Iove you!" "I always wanted him to look at this." "I must be crazy!" "I have gone crazy for sure!" "Come in, honey, come in." " For you dad on valentine's Day." " I'm so happy." "It's such a nice custom this valentine's Day..." "And look who's come to visit me!" "Hi, sweetie..." "You want a cookie?" "Mum got me some beautiful flowers." "You smoke at school, Miss £ucja?" "well, KIaudiusz Jedynak." "How are you, young lad?" " Visiting the old stomping ground?" " It's not that old." " Are you studying anything?" " Yes, international relations." "I won't fire you for smoking!" "Artur?" "What are you doing here?" " Today is valentine's Day." " Is what?" "valentine's Day." "Day of lovers..." "After 6 months you tell me about the day of lovers?" "Are you mad?" " No..." " Then how will you explain this?" "simple." "It's valentine's Day..." "I'II make some tea, I need some tea." "Have you been fired?" "It's not so easy to be fired in brussels." "Want some?" "Artur!" "He left you!" "What are you talking about?" "He left me." "And were it for some nice guy!" "But no!" "For a nobody!" "He left me for a loser!" "For some fucking dietician!" "You get it?" "He left me for a soy cutIet lover!" "There, that's peppermint." "freshly made..." "should work." "And there wasn't even a warning sign beforehand!" "That you see something is not ok." "simply." "A surprise fuckup!" ""I'm moving out, I don't need you anymore!"" "He treated me like shit!" "Men are bastards, Artur..." "I'm sorry." "It's ok." " Enjoy your meal, honey." " I'm not hungry." "Don't look at me." "I've never been next to such a woman." "I didn't know you're a virgin." "I adore you." "I adore it when you make jokes." " I adore you for everything." " Great, but my head is killing me and at such moments I adore loneliness." "You want me to leave now?" "I do." "My head hurts and I want to be left alone." " Don't look at me like that!" " I Iove you, too." "Too?" "Anybody else here?" " Don't pretend you don't know." " This time I don't." " I Iove you and you love me too." " Me?" " That's what you said." " Maybe in your dream." "Tonight." " Rubbish!" " No." ""I Iove you, Erwin!"" " Four times!" " Stop it!" " Ok, I can stop." " Ok!" "It's complete shit!" "If it's shit, then why did you say it?" "Because you were pathetic, I wanted to help you somehow." "It was sincere." "Fuck off, Erwin!" "This is sincere, too." "You're scared?" "I'm not!" "I knew from the start" " we were made for each other!" " We?" "Back to fucking Mars!" "I fucked you to get over it!" "To make you stop following me!" "That's not true." "shall we make a bet?" "well, what are you staring at?" "I will never be with you, never!" "Get it?" "Spring, with its arrogant, sunny energy, came unnoticed by Korba." "She was sleepy all the time and spent time at home, telling herself that anything was better than Erwin's love." "£ucja was so terrified by the affair with her former student, she began avoiding him." "In the meantime, Szymek - who thought only about playing for barcelona - decided that being an orthopaedist in Warsaw is also interesting." "Monia's mother finally moved in with her father, he was so happy he forgot about his daughter." "That's what Monia thought." "She started practising piano again and ignored her husband who was preparing for the final conquest of Germania." "meanwhile, Goœka was feeling better than ever." "Artur moved back to Warsaw and bought her a car as an apology." "The three months of spring felt so much like honeymoon," "Goœka again believed that her baby would appear any minute." "24 MAY" "First!" "Mum, I have to!" "football at night?" "!" "And homework?" " Mum!" "I'm meeting Wojtek!" " What Wojtek, Szymek?" "His mother lets him play football at night?" " His mother doesn't know!" " Even better!" "Women work like horses, everybody else is running wild." "I don't know about his mother, but he certainly does." "That's why we play so late!" "After he finishes work." " Finishes what?" "!" " His job!" " How old is Wojtek?" " I don't know, 50." "Fuck off, you!" "You... conductor, you!" "Fuck off, or I'II call the police!" "darling, could you make me some tea?" "You read my mind." "I try to." "Our tea will get cold." "Know what I'm thinking about?" "About subsidies for European farmers?" "I think a baby is a really good idea." "Erwin, stop being a faithful dog." "I'II be waiting..." "always, I need you to know." "Ok, I know already." "Now get off me." " Hey!" " Hey!" " What idyllic scent..." " You're Korba, right?" "No." "You are." "My fame is larger than myself, I see." "Good stuff." "You got this at nursery school?" "Ok, little boy, who are you and what do you want?" " I'm waiting for you." " I'm not." " I want to talk." " You all say that." " really!" " You already are." " Not here." " You want to go upstairs?" "It's too good for you, boy." " You don't understand." " No, you don't." "older kids aren't resting with kiddies today." "Bummer!" "How can I Iook at him?" " Want eye drops?" " Forget eye drops!" "Jesus, Wojtek isn't paedophiIe!" "He's an orthopaedist!" "You're too young to judge people." "What normal man hangs out with a kid?" " But you hang out with kids, too." " I'm a teacher!" "Teachers can be perverts as well, and sleep with students!" "Jesus Christ, Szymek, what are you talking about?" "See?" "You react this way 'cause you're normal!" "So is Wojtek!" "You should apologize to him." "THREE DAYS LATER" "only ambulances are allowed here." "Visitors go there." "I'm an ambulance." "I want my egg howling at sperm like a wolf howls at the moon!" " Like in space flights!" " howl at sperm." "Yes, yes." "I've tried everything." "Now I need to trust science!" "Ma³gorzata, we will get pregnant." "I will do everything possible." "Yes, yes." "We'II start measuring the size of the vesicle in 1 0 days." "until then, please have a check-up." " howl at sperm... there you go." " Thank you." "You are stubborn." " Runs in the family." " In mine, too." "Do you have a name?" "Friends call me Yerba." "Yerba?" "Funny..." "Yerba and Korba in one house they stood," "Yerba below and Korba..." "Come!" "A dying daddy?" "Is that some new trick?" "Any wheelchair?" " He's not in a wheelchair." " They're very trendy now!" " Pick up chicks with handicaps?" "!" " Who's picking up chicks?" " Not me!" " Me neither!" "Which fucked up Romeo has been standing outside for days?" " I said I only wanted to talk." " Oh, and who am I?" "Doctor Freud?" "I don't like listening about your dying daddy!" " I have no one else to talk to." " Yerba, I'm so sorry!" "I'm so awfully sorry!" "I can't care about all the world's problems!" "I don't know you." "You want to listen about my dad?" " Yeah." " Fuck." "That's very noble, Your holiness, really," "I don't talk about my father with anybody else, understand?" "And after such foreplay I've lost my appetite so fuck off." "God bless you!" "Get lost, you brat!" "Or I'II call the police!" "You haven't changed the locks in your door for so many years." "Lost?" "Why should I care?" "Men who can't raise children shouIdn't have them." " You're being unfair!" " Me?" "I'm thirty-one years old, dad!" " It's been 1 3 years." " But you didn't want to see me!" " You left me!" " That's not true!" "I quit my job when mum died to take care of you!" "For 2 years!" "Then you sent me to a boarding school!" "Four years, dad!" "Thanks to you I spent the four years with crazy nuns!" " In one of the best schools!" " How are you so fucking sure?" "Shame you didn't ask me!" "It wasn't about my school!" "Just more time for the slut and baby!" "I wanted to have a life, too!" "I wanted to have a normal life!" "So did I, dad!" " Are you feeling ok?" " It's a cold..." "A bit like... water?" "I thought I couId sort it out somehow." "But you didn't." "fortunately, I did quite well myself and I really like my Iife, dad!" "Without you!" "It's not about me, KaroIina." "Jasiek is only eighteen years old..." " He never ran away before." " I told you it's not my business!" "I'm sorry..." "I'II go now." "If Jasiek shows up here by any chance..." " He's your brother." " No, he's not." "I flooded his flat!" "I am really awfully sorry, awfully sorry!" "But £ucja!" "Don't even mention it." " I have a different issue." " Other than the ceiling?" "ceiling?" "What ceiling?" "Whatever..." "Your boyfriend asked me." "You have a boyfriend?" " Me?" "No." "But you." " Me?" "!" "If this is some kind of revenge for the paedophile thing I'm not amused!" "But he was in my flat!" "About the toilet!" "Mister Dywanik..." "Mister Dywanik has been out of my Iife for some time now, mister!" "That's strange." "Because he asked me today... begged..." " to say he's waiting!" " This must be a joke!" "seriously, Mr. Dywanik and his brother had a serious accident." "On a motorbike." "They are both lying in my ward." "Jesus Christ, are they going to die?" "!" "No, no, they're out of danger but the treatment could last many months..." "So it wouId be better if you paid him a visit." "Goodbye." "I see it, love, I see..." "Your love line shows it clearly..." "Your husband loves you and he'II be simply mad about you, soon..." "Anything to do with my looks?" "Yes." "With my breasts?" "Yes, love." "Soon your breasts will be huge!" "Doctor Wituch?" "Kochanowska speaking." "I've decided!" "Why are you at my mom's grave?" "My father's, too..." "alright, Yerba." "What's going on?" "My father is terminally ill." "He hides it but it's getting worse." " This grave!" " He wants to be next to your mom." " He loves her more." " What?" "!" "He keeps a picture of her." "And your picture too." "Jesus, Lucy!" "I'm so happy!" "I've made chicken soup for you." "To build up your strength..." "Brothers together, as always?" "could I have a bit, too?" "Jesus, you look beautiful!" "beautiful as ever!" "What is this?" "!" "Soup..." "A Thai recipe." "For real machos." " I Iook quite good?" " Like a goddess!" "You are the love of my Iife!" "Fucking hell." "help!" "There's so much noise here," " I can't hear anything." " The red button!" "You want to kill me?" "!" " help!" " What is going on here, £ucja?" "Nothing serious, darling." "Just B³a¿ej's attack." "He can scream at washing machines." "What do you mean by "darling"?" "I burn when you don't touch me." "Take me!" "Just now!" "£ucja, £ucja!" "I'II be going." "It was nice to see you again." "But.." " ArIetka?" " Hi, guys." "ArIetka, I'm so happy." "Here, I brought you some soup." " What do you mean "no"?" " simply, no!" "It's not possible..." "How come it's not possible?" "I said that I've decided!" "I can't do the surgery now because you are pregnant." "Monia, it's me!" "Can I borrow your car?" "Sure..." " Did something happen?" " No, nothing, hay fever." "I'II be at the office in 1 0min." "How is my egg today?" " Ten, doctor!" " Ten what?" " 1 0cm dilated!" " We're starting to give birth." "I think we shouldn't wait a moment longer." " So tomorrow?" " Yes." "Tomorrow!" "The sooner the better!" "Sorry, off to the labour ward." "Oh!" " The lift is out of order." " I've noticed." " I'II help you." " Fuck, I was stupid." "Understand, it isn't about you." "You run away but it's not about me." " I wrote you a letter." " Oh, wait, Iet me guess..." ""Dear wife, I don't want to hurt you but unfortunately he called and..."" "Wait!" ""You can kiss my ass now, bye..." "PS." "You're wonderful, but unfortunately you're..."" "Wait!" ""...a woman." "Yours till today." "Artur."" "So, you see I'm touched." "I'm sorry." "You said you wanted to have a child, you pig." "Oh, supper..." "Make it yourselves, you fags!" "What happened?" "!" "My lift is out of order!" "I was supposed to get pregnant tomorrow!" "I feel like dying!" "How could he?" "That fag!" "He is my husband." " A husband wouldn't do that." " So where is yours now?" "Mum..." "Szymek, go out!" "This is adult stuff!" " Isn't it too late?" " No, go play football!" " Exercise is important!" " Thanks!" "Listen, you're right." "They always cheat, you know." "Whether they're after tits or dicks doesn't really matter." "But you can do the same." "But I'm not attracted to women." "I'm talking about the child, stupid!" "You can have it with anyone." "until tomorrow?" "It will be fucking hard." "Dad!" "Look who's come..." " hello." " hello, mister Istvan." "Yes, it's me." "It's £ucja speaking, Goœka's friend." "It's a pleasure!" "I also feel very sorry about the death of your husband." "Oh, yes..." "Thank you." "I'm calling to ask if you love Goœka?" " Of course!" " What about a baby with her?" "I haven't thought about that yet, but..." "well..." "He hasn't thought about that yet." "hello, Istvan." "It's Goœka." "You have time till tomorrow!" " Yes, tomorrow at my place!" " Where?" "Where, in Warsaw!" "So bye!" "Wait." "Is your lift out of order, too?" "What fucking lift?" "!" "I'm pregnant!" "Auntie, help!" "It's completely insane here!" " Fuck, Szymek, I'm not "auntie"!"
