"My dick would freeze." "Not this." "What about that?" "It's too new." "I don't want to look rich." "But to look poor is not good either." "And if you are rich, it's also not good to show it." "Well, it's best to look like nothing." "(singing:) Look on the bright side of life... (teapot whistling)" "(shards tinkling)" "Alas, my most favorite one." "It's best to forget everything."

" How old are you?" "What do you think?" "I should be retired now." "You wouldn't believe what a 50-year old lady can do." " She enjoys everything, doesn't she?" " (Faun:) It is risky." "Silence!" "Yes?" "A minute please." " Are you here?" " I am." "You're not." " Please..." " Well?" "It's best to be nowhere, see?" " I'm not here." " Here we go." "There's no one here." "Well, I don't know."

"You were expecting me here?" "Something happen?" " I heard, you have some troubles." " Troubles?" " Really, who doesn't these days?" " Well, alright." "When you're ok, see me with that file." " But hurry up." " Yes." " What did she want?" " She needs the Morocco file." "Jesus Christ..." "I haven't found it yet." " What did you tell her?" " That you were on the toilet." "Oh my." " What was I supposedly doing on the toilet?" " Diarreah..." "God, what sort of people are these?" "What must I live with?" " What should I have done?" " Aren't you old enough to make up something proper." "Isn't this a tough buisness?" "She was calling?" "When?" "It was supposed to be this afternoon." "The time you were away." "Damn, damn."

"You mean from the hospital, don't you?" "You were one hell of a sicko." "Vendulka, being on time is the way of queens." "It's not such a big deal." "Me being Queen, you would see then." "Every one would need to watch his mouth." "Especially you." " Well..." " Are we gonna just stand here?" "Or what?" "What do you prefer?" "Ledebur stairs or Old Castle stairs..." "Who cares about stairs?" "The main thing is ice cream." "Will there be some?" "Wait!" "Why so fast, Vendulka?" "Be more patient." "The stairs were your idea." "And now you're tired." " Come on, it's good for your health." " Wait!" "Take a look around." "Such a beautiful place." "Isn't this beautiful, Vendulka?" "I've seen this already." "Boring." " The authentic Czech baroque." " Where?" " And the Czech gothic." "The craftsmanship." " I know that." " Built by the real Czech masters." " You are so educated." "Oh!" "Look!" "(Faun:) I know that." "Those are the old... sites of Prague." "What are you doing here?" "Working so early?" "And without coffee?" " What a mess." " What's that on your head?" " Hair." " But it looks different." "Don't harass me now." "I'm looking for the Morocco." "Where the hell could it be?" "Not here." "Nor here." "Hell, where is it?" "Mexico," "Monaco..." "Where could it be?" "When I can't find something" "I simply stop looking for it." "Cause it's a waste of time." "Keep things in order here and you'll find anything in no time." " Where is the yellow file?" " But it's there." "The other one. the one always lying here." "You take me for a thief?" "I only borrow things." "Here it is." "This is one hell of a mess." "Where is the bloody Morocco?" "I need to proceed systematically." "When I worked on it then I..." "Which one was I meeting then?" " And when I finished it..." " You had to rework it." " How do you know?" " I know everything about you." "You were kind of unhappy then." " I am never unhappy." " Well, if you say so..." "And you were wearing that creepy purple shirt." "Me in a creepy shirt?" "With those flowers on it?" "It was brought to me from Mexico by Ancha." "It was my birthday." "Must have been the 15th of November." " I was working on Mongolia." " I see." " It must have been..." " Yeah..." "26th of October precisely." " Hooray!" "26, October." " But what's the use of it?" " You could find it by the date." "I consider dates disgusting." "Good Morning." "please, the Morocco?" " Yeah." "I'm just sitting on it." " Good." "Ministry wants to know when it got here." " The 26th of October." " Yep, 26th of October." "Well, that will do for now." "Get it ready, I'm busy now..."

"You may as well start about hemorrhoids." " It would be just like you." " And you have them?" "Well, if so you shouldn't sit on this." " Oh!" " Morocco!" "I really was sitting on it!" "My lovely Morocco!" "My lovely Vlastichka." "Josef, please, you will just hang up and call again as usual." "What?" "No, you don't know this one." "She's new." "But really." "Don't let her stay the whole night." "See you, then." "Which pig has..." "So this is Prague and this is my nest." "Isn't this an attic?" " Isn't it windy here?" " No, why?" " You really sleep here?" " Won't you put down your..?" " What?" " Well, the luggage." "Your hands are so nice." " You are making a fool of me." " No." " Isn't this kind of worn out?" " Not worn out, but antique." "(Faun:) Just help yourself." "The rafters should be painted white." "So it wouldn't look so...bad." "Oh jeez, all the stuff here!" "And what's this box?" "What box?" "It's a casket from the 18th century." " Very valuable." " A coffin?" " Why is it valuable?" " Because it's authentic." "And very old." "So you prefer very old things." " What is authentic is valuable." " And what does it cost?" "Sometimes, it's not even quantifiable." "Is this skin also authentic?" " Jesus, I don't want this anymore." " But this is not old." "With skin, it's vice versa." " the younger skin, the..." " The sooner it should be tanned." "There's one thing you don't know." "My father worked with skins."

" But that phone call" "Hanka was standing beside me." "And she's so suspicious." "Karel, you can't do this to me." " You must be decent." " That's what I am." "You must help me." "She wants me to be home at all times." "I would have no alibi." "We couldn't even play chess." "I see." "I'm decent then." " Chess, chess..." " That's the point." "You call me for the chess and I can go out." " Chess, lovely chess..." " I beg your pardon." " Lovely dress of hers." " Lovely dress of hers...of yours, I mean." "There's one thing I don't get." "You have a great wife and like her." "So why are you afraid of her?" "Bullshit, I'm not afraid." "I only worry, that she could worry, that I don't like her." "Then I would have to stay home..." " Proving it." " Oh man." "That's what I'm here for." "And our chess." "I help you and you help me like they say." " And we are both alright." " There's a beautiful one." "But you can't have everything." "Now girls, he's coming." "Wearing a pink shirt today." " Good morning, ladies." " Good morning." "What is this?" "You are smoking here?" "Zdenichka, Is it ready?"

"I would know if I knew what you want to know.." "let me explain." "You were always so good at explaining things." "Look, I know you are very skilled in strategems." "But you have never tried them on me." " Well, don't even try now." " What's this about?" "not about the past." "Wait, I came to see you." " I have it ready." " Well, good." "How do you find me with these heels?" "You are really tall now." "Now you only need to be really blonde." " Why so?" " Gentlemen prefer blondes." " Mark my word, Zdenichka." " Wait, I'll go with you." "You guess being blonde would make me feel better?" "Funny, how dramatic it can be sometimes." " You're heading to...?" " Third floor." "But it's the second floor for us." "It's kind of tight in here." "I'm sorry." "I should really accompany you." "You could get lost in this labyrinth." " What are you looking for anyway?" " A job." "Oh, a job." "We must go down then." "To Mr. Vorel." "What are your skills?" " Shorthand for instance." " Hm, shorthand." "Aren't we nowadays sort of short of..." " My shoes are too short or what." " But it's all your fault." "You didn't want to study." "You wanted to have a good time." "You just didn't care." "Well, don't worry." "I have always meant well with you." "I admired your skills at school back then." " Of course, you were different." " Was I?" " An exceptional girl." " You don't say." " So you noticed me?" "How was I exceptional?" " You were too clever for me." "I see, you're talking about the class barriers." "But only you are to blame." "It occurs to me..." "Maybe you did it on purpose." "To avoid responsibility." "But it doesn't mean you can do a sloppy job here." "With your skills it would be a clear provocation." "I wouldn't dare." "And that apathy of yours." "What does that mean?" "Well, I'm grateful of course." "But I'm afraid it would be neither promising nor correct." "Just don't say you're so naive." "It never occured to you, that this could be worth even trying?" " It would be too risky." " And what's not risky?" "Isn't it out of the question?" "He who wants to win musn't worry about defeat." "But I worry that, you don't allow for defeat."

"Oh, you don't even know what concert you are going to." "It will end up like with the Paderewsky I gave you." "Thank you, I'm very grateful." "Why are you going, when you are not intersted?" " Why?" "for a change." " Oh, a change." "Well, for a change then." "And what about inviting me for a change?" "You... what?" "It depends, for whom would you go." " if it is for me or Vivaldi."

"(Faun:) Let each one leave on time!" "But it's not possible." "Are you sure?" " It's the last time I make this mistake." " (visitor:) Isn't it impossible?" "It's not possible for it to be the last time." "Of course it isn't." "Come anytime again." "(Faun:) The time's going so fast." "Are you there?" " Are you going to take long?" " Do you have something to read?" " Hurry up, I have to go." " Yeah, yeah." "Go away, I will lock up." "Away!" "What now?" " (Housekeeper:) Mr. Engineer!" " Has something happened?" " Janinka has passed away." "What?" "Miss Houdkova?" "So that's why she was watching me like that." "There's only three of us now." "Karlichka, me and you." " I wonder who will leave first." " well, I'm actually leaving now." "Mr. Engineer, wait." "Take this cake." "It was for Janinka." " I can't." " Just take it." " Lust for sweets, Mr. Engineer?" " I've accomplished nothing yet." "Morning, Vlasta." "Are you here?" "She's not." "There's no one here." "How come?" "I've accomplished nothing yet." "And she's not here." "(phone ringing)" "Yes!" "It's you, Hanka." "What?" "Don't cry." "I can't hear." "What, Josef?" "Jesus." "You made it sound like something happened to him." "And it's just that he isn't there." "His belongings aren't there?" "Wait." "(tonda:) Is Vlasta here?" " She isn't." " And where is she?" "I don't know." " So she isn't here?" " I'll call you back." " Later." " Look, her belongings." " I brought this." " Funny." "She's always been so punctual." "Perfect, wasn't she?" " Look!" " Here I am, Mr. Engineer." " Now we're in this together." " What's that supposed to mean?" "This won't be here." "Here's my typewriter." "Why is this empty?" "where are the hangers?" "Hm, hangers." "You will have quite a time, man." "(Faun:) I've accomplished nothing yet." "I've accomplished nothing yet." " Is the boss here?" " No." " Who's that girl?" " Vlasticka's left." "Don't you know?" " Left?" "And why?" " I don't know." "You will like this one a lot." "Too much maybe." "I've accomplished nothing yet." "I hope it was for me." "Was it?" "I like it here so." "A change." "That's the life." "Isn't it?" "You know, you are quite likeable." "Do you have another cigarette?" "Or coffee at least?" " I have." " Great." "But I don't know where." "(Faun:) I've been wondering," "What all this decay reminds me of." "And you know what, maybe?" "It might be the aroma of my childhood." "Lost one." "You're kinda funny today." "Rather kinda anxious." "A funny thing." "An old women passed away at our house today." "I didn't actually like her." "She even drove me mad sometimes." "And now I sort of miss her." " Isn't it funny?" " You were accustomed to her." " It's normal." " So growing accustomed is the point?" "Maybe that's what it's all about." "We are living, tryng to do something agonize and it's all about growing accustomed." "We get used to it, and that's it." "Whatever happens we get used to everything." "National theater for instance." "You think every nation has one?" "They don't." "We are simply used to having it." "Growing accustomed is what's keeping us alive." "You get used to everything." "Even the gallows." "That's the point." "I'm used to Hanka." "I'll kill myself." "Hanka's crying." "Silly Billy's crying she's even throwing up." "Come here, Josef." "I will tell you a secret." "Silly Billy is pregnant and want's to tell Hanka." "God gave the way and the seed didn't stay." "Tell me, what would you do in my place?" "Hey, look." "Nice." "A daddy with a boy." "The boy will grow up and look like his daddy." "And will have another boy who will look like his daddy." "And daddy will die and the boy will have another boy and he will also look like daddy." "And the boy will also die and the boy of his will have another boy who will also look like daddy." "And he will also die." "And in that way life is eternal." "As for me, I would keep it." "Man, I have an idea." "Can I ask you this?" "I don't expect you to..." " Swear to it." " To what?" "You will sign the Paternity for Silly Billy." " Have you gone..." " Aren't you glad that, we'll have a son?" " The two of us?" " So you won't sign?" "The Paternity for my dear Silly Billy?" "What a friend you are!" "You're a cunt." "It's all over between us." "I'm going to Vlastichka!" "To Vlastichka." "She lives somewhere around here." "But where?" "What am I seeing?" "What am I seeing?" "Oh God, she's moving out." "She's so uncompromising." "Yesterday, change of job." "Today, change of home." "She is uncompromising." "I won't let... my Vlastichka leave my beloved Prague!" "My beloved Vlastichka!" "No one will take my Vlastichka from me." "(Mover:) What are you doing Tonda?" " Enough now!" " This wardrobe will stay here!" "I won't let you!" "You would have to kill me first!" "See?" " Man, it's our wardrobe!" " I wonder who will pay for this." "I will." "I will pay for everything." "If only my beloved Vlastichka doesn't leave me." "I will hold you by force!" "I will hold you... with all the force of my being!" "Hey, don't piss me off." "Get out, befere I kick your ass." "No one will move out of here." "Vlastichka!" "My beloved, don't run away." "My Vlastichka..." "Look how I've fought for you." "You can't leave my like this!" "What's with him?" "Don't move her out!" "I will pay." "Don't we understand each other?" "I will put it in song." "For your eyes blue and grey, which no one can love as much as me" "No one will move away from here!" "I've told you already." "Piss off!" "How dare you?" "Karel?" "Where are you?" "Oh, my appearance!" "Karel, where are you?" "I can't see you." "Karel?" " Karel, I can't see you." " I can't see you either." "I'm holding on here." "Come take hold of me so I can let go." "Oh, water." "Just let it be enough." "Vlastichka, I've found you now." "You're not gonna leave me, are you?" " Vlastichka..." " Stand still for a second." "It is the authentic truth." "What are we doing here?" "Are we having a bath?" "You are so cute when you're drunk." "I will wash your clothes." "I'm so unhappy." "Because of you." "Karel..." "You are unhappy because of me?" "Because of me you're unhappy?" "Because of me you're drunk?" "I'm so happy." "Don't you understand, that only I can understand- that no one can understand you?" "Except me." "Karel, understand please." "I don't want you to have to understand me." "No." "I knew, that it takes some time." "Yep." "Time is the chief enemy of mankind." "I will have to go." "Karel, I was hiding it from you." "Yes, keep hiding it." "Hide it properly." "Stay modest like you are." "You loser." "It's good that you've opened your heart to me." "Don't worry, I'm discreet as hell." "The main thing, don't tell my boss." " You loser." " That creepy reaper." "She also longs for me, you know?" " You loser." " I need some fresh air." "(Vlasta:) Could you pick him up here?" "He keeps talking about you." "Seems to really suffer because of you." "He's in the park down there." "No, he can't go very far." "Yes." "Jichinska street 800." "Loser." "What did my beloved Vlastichka say?" "Didn't that cunt say that I'm a loser?" "She'll see." "I'll destroy her." "Wait, let's think a little." "What's the best way to destroy somebody." "A woman that is." "the best way to destroy somebody... is to make him believe..." "That he is loved." "And that is what happened." "I'll show her a loser." "A loser can be pretty dangerous." "She'll see what a loser really means." "One must be careful to avoid a bad end." "Hopefully he's alright." "Oh!" "Oh!" "Is it you?" "You're coming for me already?" "Already?" "Not so soon!" "You are so pale." "I knew you would look like this." "Sorta like my boss." " Come with me." "It's late." " No!" "No!" "No!" "I'm staying here." "I want to be here." "I'm a loser, you know?" "I'm nothing and not even death can take nothing." "What are you talking about?" "You must no longer be afraid of me." "I'm not afraid of you." "It's just that..." "I haven't paid my phone bill yet." "It no longer matters." "You are waiting for me, aren't you?" " So you don't want to go with me?" " I have accomplished nothing." "Why not think about it now?" "What would you like to do?" " I have to finish that Morocco file." " It's all arranged now." "If at least my name could live after me." "It's all vanity." " I'm not ready yet." " But you need nothing." "Let me do at least one good deed!" "At least sign the Paternity for Silly Billy." "No!" "No!" "You're mine alone now." " Where are we going?" " Don't worry." "No!" "No one will put me in a coffin." "I would rather be scattered." "(Boss's laugh)" "I've always wanted to do something that matters and have always been distracted!" "I want to do something before...!"
