"You think that our natural daughter would be finer?" "Since I live with Kuba and he brings me up..." "I'd like my name to be Albrecht-Radecka." "You're stabbing me in the heart!" "I also bring you up..." " What happened?" " Hey, you alive, mister?" "I swear I've never..." "And into the pit with those antlers!" "I wish he'd broken his neck." "He might've broken his leg trying to save the antlers." "So the name change is out of the question?" "Florka asked Darek to agree to change her name to Radecka?" "Not to change, but to add to Albrecht." "She's going to high school." "Kuba's familiar to TV viewers." "So she wouldn't like to explain why her name's different." "Her name would be."

"How much does the Trojan horse weigh?" "There was an English version." "Sold out now." "Forty?" " How do you know?" " Excuse me?" " My age's none of your business." " I meant the price in zloty." "Oh, I'm awfully sorry." "Must be an obsession." "What an encounter!" " What're you doing tonight?" " It depends..." " What's this tube?" " Surprise." "I have one for you too, but must water flowers first." " Will you come along?" " Water flowers?" " What flowers?" " Jacek asked me." "He's left for two weeks." "Posh, isn't it." " You like it?" " You're asking?" "He lives the life of Reilly." "How much is it?" "No idea." "A big bundle." "You really would like to live in an old brownstone?" "With you?" "Even under the bridge."

"Things will be happening." "Zosia and Kuba!" "Happy millennium!" "In fact, the new millennium starts in 2001." "And 2000 is the last year of the old one." "But everything's going crazy tonight." "That's media hysterics, only to have all heave a sigh of relief after." " Nothing's going to happen?" " It never did!" "The last time was 1,000 years ago." "Ever had presents like:" "Let's stay home?" " Worse." " Worse?" "Wanna hear why I didn't become a body builder?" " Cause you learned to read and write?" " That too." "But it's a secret." "I've never told anyone about it." "You can tell us." "Not a peep." "Promise." " Since I was a frail boy..." " When you were about..." "Ten..." "I wanted very much to be strongly built." "...and asked mom and dad to buy me dumbbells." " What?" " Weights to exercise with." "And they bought me..." "One." "How come?" "You exercise with two." "Mom must've thought..."

"No, thank you." "We ignore the party." "How can you?" "We have a New Year Eve's party every day." "Something's bound to happen." "The computers won't manage..." "They said on TV about special duties in the banks..." "It's food for morons..." "A medial hysterics only to have everyone heave a sigh of relief after..." " Where did you get it?" " From the wardrobe." "I'm a moron, then." "Cause you got excited by that rubbish." " What if you lose your money?" " Tell positive news sometimes." "Didn't I offer my wishes!" "Must we fight even on your birthday?" "But I'm not, Mom." "Nothing untoward will occur." " We'll see, then." " I'll call you in the New Year." "Love." "Bye." "How many times did I tell you not to take my things?" "You used to wear this once?" "Once." "Take it off or you'll damage it." " Don't keep it." "Donate to the poor."

"When will you take off the dress?" "Throw it away!" "We really ignore the party?" "Yes." "Go to bed, come on." "Tomorrow's another day full of sensation." "Mom's right." "Bye, bye." "I told Grandma I wish I were 15 years younger." "We could've been 15 years together." "We're lucky to have met at all!" "It might've been different earlier." "You could not have fancied me." " Or you me?" " Or you me." "You creep!" "How could you not have fancied me?" "Not at all!" "You are incredibly beautiful!" "I'll lift my eyelids and you'll see then!" "You want to go under the knife?" "Crazy?" "Wouldn't you like to have a younger wife?" "Repeat:" "You're incredibly beautiful..." "Folks!" "We really ignore it?" "It's in 5 minutes." "On the double!" "Two minutes!" "I can't without makeup in the new millennium." "The new one is next year." "Come!" " Mom, please!" " Don't start without me!" "One minute left!" "Quick, quick." "...5, 4, 3, 2, 1, zero!" "Two thousand!" "All the best." "May this year be better than the former." "...and not necessarily than those to come." "She's asleep." "Thank you we are finally moving out of this bedroom." "No problemo, Chief." "Get ready." "I'll be back and give you a hard time." "Come back and do it." "Well, not so bad!" "The new millennium." "It has begun!" "The commie times are over but Lenin's perennially alive in the power plant." "You've been smoking?" "How did you get here?" "What's that dog?" "Why waking me up?" "And why yelling?" "What's your business here." "Piss the fuck off!" " What piss off?" " Kuba, what's up?" " What Kuba?" " Jesus, it's a dream." "What're you doing in my bed?" "In your bed?" "I'm your husband!" "What Kuba?" "Aren't you hiding something from me?" "It's a dream." "Like in the airport!" "Sleep!" "Sleep!" "It's a dream all right." "What about making a little love, huh?" "We'll talk about it tomorrow." "What a nightmare I've had." "All right." "You'll tell me tomorrow." "Fuck such dreams." "Kuba!" "Make me coffee!" "Oh, darn it, I've lost my contact lenses." "Kuba!" "Florka!" "Wish you'd find my contact lenses." "We're happy to move out of this shack." "It's just running up and down, like a lighthouse keeper!" "I see better without them." "How did you behave last night, huh?" "You bashed my nose!" "You flipped out?" " Oh, fuck!" " Mind your French." "Jaruzelski's plans are a significant initiative." "Why interested in Jaruzelski all of a sudden?" "That's what I needed!" "So did I?" "I wanted a wife to make me breakfast so I got one!" "An unbuttered roll." "Enjoy!" "Why are you yelling at me?" "Why should I make you breakfast?" "Sometimes you could've made it for me..." "Once." "What happened, darling?" "You quarreled with Mom?" "I hope you'll have gotten over it by the evening." "Tad, wife, and the Swedes are coming." "This dinner may set us well till our dying day." " Try your best, please." " What Swedes?" "Thank you for taking interest in my business!" "I've been cutting this deal." "...for half a year and you don't remember it's tonight." "Oh, Jesus!" "Aren't you going to the university?" "No, I'll take a day off." "Very good." "You want to prepare the reception." "I fuck receptions!" "I must collect my thoughts!" "Go ahead and I'll go to earn dough, so that you." "...could take a day off and collect your thoughts." " Call me in case..." " Your cell?" "Cell?" "My office may not be a paragon of neatness but it's certainly not in jail." "No!" "It can't be true!" "It's a dream..." "A very realistic nightmare!" "Lmpossible, impossible..." "No..." "Possible." "The fucking Groundhog Day!" "I wish I'd wanted to be taller rather than younger!" "Florka." "Not a minute longer..." " Hello." " Hello." " Any vacancies?" " Yes." " Then a single if possible." " I'll try..." " One night?" " Yes." "Or maybe the next two..." " Your ID, please." " Here." " But you're registered in Warsaw!" " For five generations." " I can't check you in." " Why?" " You kidding?" " No, I'm not." "Why?" " These are the rules." " Change them, then!" "Of course, but it'll take a while..." " I even know how long!" " Interesting." "How long?" "Two years and twenty days." "Then welcome in two years and..." "Twenty days." "Sexy glasses." "Marks, dollars, bonds..." "Marks, dollars, bonds..." "What?" "Get lost, man!" "Kuba, where are you?" " Hi." " Hi." "We're at variance, but I must stay overnight." " At variance?" "Over what?" " We aren't?" "So much the better." "What have you done to your hair?" "Grown, cut?" "Tell me what happened?" "Oh, many happy returns on your name day." "Name day, shname day." "I've left Darek!" "You don't say?" " Only 10 years too late." " Your long hair was more becoming." "Ten years?" "Three years after the wedding." " You've known him for five!" " Can I sleep here?" "I wanted at the hotel, but forgot you have these commies!" "I'll find something tomorrow." "What're you talking about?" "Of course, you can." " In my room or with Grandma?" " With Grandma?" "She lives!" "Good Mom is here." "Outta here." "Grandma?" "Zosia!" "Come to me, my darling name day girl." "Many happy returns of the day!" " My dear Grandma!" " I've got pralines for you." "What's wrong?" "Something happened?" "I'm so happy to see you." "It's no good you just walked out on him." "If he wasn't honest with you, he should've left." "...if you're sure you won't forgive him." "In my times women often forgave men their cheating." "After all, they're men." "Grandma, times have changed." "I don't want to forgive him." " Most important, I don't love him." " You love someone else?" "Yes." "You want to be with him and something's in the way?" "Yes." " Is he married?" " That's not the problem." "What is, then?" "I'll meet him in 8 years." "In 8 years and you love him already?" "Yes, he's the love of my life." "I see." "You're the only one I can tell the truth to." "Promise you won't laugh at me." "Promise." "I know my future life, the next 12 years." "Day after day." "You do?" "How come?" "I've lived through them." "It's a time warp." "Interesting..." "I was in bed with Kuba on Jan. 1, 2000 ...and left for the bathroom for a moment." "On my return it was '87, Darek was in bed... whom I don't love, and Kuba, that I do, had disappeared!" "I'd dissuaded you from marrying Darek but today I advice, since it's a time warp." "...and know all about him, try to find a remedy." "Something could be salvaged." "Nothing can!" "I can't be with Darek since I met Kuba!" "What remedy?" "To enter the room before he takes off his pants?" "But I can't change his mindset." "Darek's a guy who shouldn't start a family!" "Aren't you jumping to conclusions?" "What would you do if you were me?" "If there was a time warp?" "I'd certainly try to remedy whatever possible." "I wouldn't move out of the house for sure." "It's your home." "It's so good you're here." " Teresa, you're here..." " Hi, Zosia." " Outta here." "Bye." " Hi, Jurek." " May I date you some day?" " What's so urgent?" "You're married, but no wedding ring today, so I thought..." "Warm, warm." "Why don't you read." ""Personal Attraction from the First Sight." "...till Emotional Attachments... "" "Who wrote it?" ""Social Psychology" by Aronson, Wilson, Alert;" "Warsaw 1997." "I'll sure read it." "'97?" "You mean '87?" "Sure." "But I have other fish to fry." "I'm making a genuine DDR coffee." "Dad's brought from a business trip." "Isn't today your name day?" "It is because it's today!" "The pralines!" "Teresa!" "Come here for a sec, come." "Excuse me, I must've lost my way." "I'm looking for the Sociology Dept." "Office..." "Sociology is on Karowa St. Somewhere else." "Open up!" "I'm not disturbing, I hope." "A little." "Goodbye." "Go now." "It's far from here." "You aren't too polite." "A sympatico guy..." "I know what I'm doing." "You crazy?" "I give you coffee and you..." "I'm so happy we'll be drinking the coffee all alone!" "In 10 years, we'll set up a psychotherapeutic office!" " And me?" " You'll be treated there." "OK, OK..." "How do I find Kuba?" "And why me?" "Please be seated." "One moment." "You know what's the best in the world?" "Communism." "And what's the worst?" "The fact that it's over here." " You've flipped out?" " Yes, because I married you." "Are you writing poems?" "We have visitors!" " You do." " No food ready?" "If you like to eat, you could've done it." " If you'd warned me." " I warned you that I fuck it!" "Zosia!" "I'm sorry." "I clean forgot." "It's your name day today." "Forgive me." "All because of that meeting." "You know how important it is." "I told you." "Remember?" "The Svensons are looking for a site near Warsaw ...to set up Ikea there." "They liked my 3 ha of wasteland." "It may be a gold mine to set us for a lifetime." "I'll celebrate your name day every day." " What is it, anyway?" " I want you to leave me alone." "I will if you prepare the dinner." "You'll leave for a week!" "Why?" "This is my home." "You leave..." "Tomorrow for two weeks." "Tomorrow?" "Give me two days at least." "I must get the folks ready in the firm." "Will you leave for two weeks?" "Just make the dinner." "I beg you!" " There's nothing in the house." " Nothing?" "I've provided everything!" "Kabanosy, smoked sirloin, ham!" "Everything!" "You know what it took?" "Tickets to that film festival, a color TV I bartered." "...for bikes for the twins of the meat products manager." "Now I have access to that supermarket." "...all year round from the back!" "Everything's in the fridge." "I'll make the dinner." "Our last together." "My sweet..." "And some good advice:" "Better not tell them." "...about your holidays in Sweden..." "Come on, Zosia." "I know what, when and to whom." "It's a first class dinner." "I haven't eaten kabanosy for months." "The last dinner I'm making in this house." "I understand you." "I'd like to suddenly bolt from the kitchen, take a suitcase." "...and flee for ever." " What's that, a modern kind of joke?" " She isn't kidding." "But it's irresponsible." "And how!" "I'll do it too." "Enough of this slavery." "What's this meeting in the house?" "There're restaurants..." "Lars's congratulations on having such a wonderful wife!" "He's happy we'll be business partners." "So am I!" "All the best!" "Your health." "We Poles and the Swedes have a lot in common." "We had a common king, have a common sea." "I'll tell you about my holidays in Sweden." "Ten years ago." "...in Oaxen Skargardskrog n/ Stockholm!" "Go ahead!" "With Tadeusz here." "we'd been going on holidays together for 10 years..." "Vodka, cigarettes, barter." "One had to make a living, no?" " He had a Fiat 125p." " Yellow Bahama." "And I, a Polish trailer." "I was so young then, huh?" "It was more difficult to get than a flat." " In 1977..." " I was refused my passport." "The holidays - in jeopardy." "And the possible pay I could've lived off for a year." "My entrepreneurial gene to the rescue." "Tadeusz tows me in the trailer to Swinoujscie... where he parks it on the ferry." "Having made friends with a truck driver..." "I had him tow me to a campground n/Stockholm." "And the next two months saw me hustle the campground." "But in a cultured way, of course." "It was before I met Zosia." "But in a cultured way." "Before I knew it, all my friends had gone home." "...and I was left in the trailer in the campground!" " The fall semester had already begun..." " But your entrepreneurial gene?" "I reported to the police that my car had been stolen." ""Lmpossible," they say." "So I showed them the trailer." "That convinced them there had had to be a car." "They didn't even ask me about the car papers." "...and started looking for the car all over Sweden..." "I stayed at the hotel, as they'd paid for it." "Finally, they found nothing, of course." "Soon the cops came, writhing with shame and suggested that they tow me to the ferry." "So I sat at ease, smoking a cigarette... while a police Volvo was towing my trailer." "A senior officer apologized:" ""Nothing like that has happened." "...in my 30 years on the force" he said." "I was waiting in Swinoujscie in my Yellow Bahama..." "My only holidays abroad in a trailer without a car!" "Lars wants to get it right." "Did the police look for a car that was not?" "Not at all!" "Why did they look, then?" "It boggled the suckers' minds that one can pull such a fast one." "Did you deceive the police to go and look for your car." " That never was?" " Aren't I saying they're suckers?" "Lars says it's not funny." "No?" "Shall we meet alone without the husbands?" " With pleasure." " To plot against us, huh?" "Why?" "You'll do yourselves in alone." " How about tomorrow?" " OK." "Bye." "Take care." "Thank you, Darek." "I'm sorry." "Good bye." "Everything was delicious." "Love." "Good bye." "It was nice." "Bye." "Take care." "Thanks, Zosia." "Svenson has clearly fallen for you." "We got the deal closed, huh?" "We don't." "Your wasteland will lie fallow." "How come?" "Lomianki - the ideal site for IKEA!" "IKEA will be in Janki." "In Lom-janki." "I've invited you for coffee, because I think." "we'll be the best friends in 3 years." "I don't make friends easily." "But I know it'll pan out." "Why put it off?" "I always liked you of all the wives of our sharp operators..." "I didn't, which was a mistake." "You are worthier than all of us combined." "No matter how resistant I am to compliments it's nice to hear, anyway." "Since we're friends, tell me who Darek cheats on me with?" "What a question?" "I don't know if he does..." "Even if I did, you don't tell such things." "A friend to a friend?" " Then we're friends already?" " Very much so!" "Would you if you knew something about Tad?" "Of, course!" "You don't tell such things." "Deep down you're very unhappy." "Tad isn't too affectionate." "...and you still can't get over his fling with the vice Miss Polonia." "How do you know?" "Even if I mumbled something when drunk it was long ago and untrue!" " Sure." "Who does Darek betray me with?" "I don't know!" "Find out from Tad." "How can they serve coffee in glasses?" "In what, then?" "Waitress!" "In 10 years, it'll be a super sushi restaurant." "In this cafØ?" "A Japanese style sushi restaurant." "Raw fish on rice." " Yuck!" "An abomination!" " You'll gorge on it." "You'll see." " May I help you?" " With plastic?" "So suddenly on May, 16, 1987 we'll start a lifelong friendship..." " Menu?" " That's in plastic covers." "I'll pay with cash." "Oh, darn it, May 16..." "Bye." " Grandma?" " Here!" " Pack up!" " I am." "I'm taking you to the seaside!" "Not to the seaside." "To the sanatorium." "I won't let you!" "We've put the seaside off for too long..." "But a referral..." "So hard to get!" "I waited for half a year." " Where at the seaside?" " To the sanatorium..." "You'll go to the sanatorium." "It's more beautiful in the fall." "I'm not thinking about it at all." "What?" " I think..." " What's crossing your mind?" "What if I had a beer?" "This is OK, yes?" "A history major, I can't find a job in this country?" "I..." "Paint chimneys..." "But wanted to be an archeologist." "We have plenty of work." "You must've fallen from grace." " You must've been active..." " Nuts..." "Why did you set up labor unions?" "We deluded ourselves one could live a normal life!" " One can." " No!" "You've proved we can't." "Fuck everything, then!" "When I get my passport..." " we take Matt and leave." "I won't..." " Good riddance." "No!" "I can't tell you how I know it but things will be better." "Hold on for a while!" " How long?" " Till June 4, '89." "Communist Party is for agreement and struggle." "I'm glad you're happy." "The two of us here." "The only bright side of the time warp." " Jake, you like it?" " Uh-huh." " Maybe this, then?" " For Christ's sake!" "Which one then?" "You can't decide." "I know." "Sometimes I think it's a dream this future life, Kuba, Florka." " What Florka?" " Your granddaughter." "Will I have Florka, my great-granddaughter?" " Are you pregnant?" " Oh, darn it!" "I'm not, dammit!" "And I should be in 2 weeks!" "If I want to have Florka..." "Goddammit!" "You'd rather wait for that Kuba of yours?" "Yes!" "To have Florka with him." "If what you say is true, it will be another Florka." "What do I do, then?" "Polish president." "Six letters, the third e?" "Walesa." "What Walesa?" "Polish President Bierut." "The 3rd necklace this week." "But it's a bargain." "See how beautiful they are?" "This is the homeland of amber." "We don't have money!" " Then borrow." " Again?" "I want to have Florka, but can't return to Darek!" "No way!" "Should I return to let him impregnate me?" "You can't get pregnant without it." "God, what a lowlife..." "This will go with the dress we bought yesterday." "Here." "This is all I got." "So we can leave home earlier." "Stop always bickering with me over money!" "Where do I take it from?" "Your account." "You should earn more." "You give up the necklace?" "I'm interested." "Moment!" "I'm giving it some thought!"
