A Perfect Day Page #6

photos of their girlfriend.

Damir does.

You looked in my wallet?

I... I was looking

for your passport, uh..

Can't see her very well.

It's blurry.

You can see her just fine.

What? You want me to carry

around a poster of her?

You tricked me, mambru

and I believed you.

It wouldn't have made

any difference.

You think I lied to you..

...but I didn't.

Here.

It was nobody's fault.

Our relationship...

Had a blind spot.

Yeah, like a car.

Something we couldn't see,

that's all.

You mean... Your wife?

Don't call my wife a blind spot.

- I didn't, you did.

- I didn't mean her.

I was just giving an example.

Besides she's not my wife.

We're not married!

See?

You're denying here again.

Please, can you guys

go somewhere else?

I'm trying to go to sleep here.

Shh!

No, we can't!

There are mines!

What? What? What? What?

What the f***?

Oh, my god. Jesus.

Oh, sh*t, you scared me.

Mambru, wake up.

Wake up. Wake up.

Mambru, follow the granny.

Follow the granny.

Trust me, follow the granny.

10-4, b. 10-4.

It's just a cow.

Oh, my god, I'm sorry.

Not too close, not too close.

Okay.

Just don't look.

Don't look.

Yay!

I was right. It was left!

It's my grandfather.

Uh, b, tell damir

to get over here.

Oprostite. Excuse me.

It's our fault.

Tell him the road was closed.

We couldn't make it back

last night.

And Nikola behaved very well.

Uh..

Tell him, uh, that Nikola

took us to his house in dukovo.

He asks

if boy went into the house.

No, he didn't. I did.

Nikola.

Ask him if he knows

what happened to his parents.

He knows.

When he will tell him?

When war stops.

When time comes.

Let's go, let's go.

Let's free some space here.

Okay, okay, okay. Let's go.

Make sure you send a postcard.

Oh, yeah.

Here we are!

The war plumbers.

Unclogging pipes!

You know, maybe I should be

moving along somewhere.

Maybe Katya was right.

I should find a wife

and have 2 and half kids.

- Settle down.

- F*** all that.

This is your home.

I mean..

...or wherever,

people need your help, b.

That's your family.

The family that waits for you.

Misses you.

How many people can say..

...they are missed by people

they've never met before, huh?

Not many.

Not many.

Okay.

Pull.

Slowly!

Allez, come on up, Romeo.

Whoa, whoa! What?

Sophie!

Sophie!

What's going on?

Wh... what's the problem?

Are you in charge here?

Yes, I am.

Yeah, I have a request

from, uh, ri... richa..

- Uh, Richardson?

- It's Richard.

Oh, yes. Sophie Richard.

It says, "inspection request

uh, explosives."

You must abandon the extraction

of that corpse immediately.

- It could be mined.

- But it's not.

- May I?

- Sure.

That's a mistake.

We've searched that well

inside out.

There are no explosives

in there. It's all clear.

Well, you may not be aware of

it, sir, but this is a red zone.

There's been some changes

of jurisdiction

and we handed everything over

to the local authorities.

- So mined or not, removing that dead body is illegal.

- I can't believe this.

But it's a basic

sanitary service.

I mean,

with all due respect, sir

it wouldn't matter

if it were a pig.

Abandon the extraction

immediately.

You need a judge present

to do what you're doing.

- A judge?

- Yes, a judge.

The area is now

under civil jurisdiction.

It's all here

in the peace agreements.

We must all respect procedure.

Where the hell

are we gonna find a judge?

We will provide a judge.

Just notify

the local authorities.

Respect protocol.

It's not your responsibility

to solve everything.

Can't you make an exception?

The people here need water.

Just abandon the extraction

from my request.

Let us do our job. You might

be generating a conflict.

But there already

is a conflict here.

If we do not clean the water,

we won't need 1 judge

we'll need 20 judges.

We cannot make

any exceptions, ma'am.

It's all written

in the peace agreements

and it must be respected

by all parties in conflict.

It's very simple.

You cannot touch dead bodies.

Give me that rope.

That's our rope.

Give it to me! Don't take it.

You do nothing here!

United nothing!

You're nothing!

I understand your reasoning

but there's nothing else

we can do.

We understand that your work

is very important here.

Remember,

we are on the same side.

Stay out of trouble.

I'm sorry.

Psst! Psst!

Excuse me!

Excuse me.

May I see the ball?

Huh?

Is that the ball?

Let me see the ball.

Let me see..

Ooh!

What's he doing?

No, I just wanna see the ball.

No, no, no, no.

Huh?

This is not your ball!

Get out of my face!

He says, uh,

Nikola sold it to them for $10.

Bullshit.

Bullshit.

Hey, Nikola!

Did you sell the ball?

Yeah?

Does it hurt?

Nope.

I thought you wanted that ball.

I need money.

What for?

To go and see my parents

in donovich.

I have a friend.

I pay,

he takes me where they are.

I have $40, only need 10 more.

- You can't do that.

- Yes, I can.

He has brother at checkpoint.

- You pay, you go.

- You can't.

It's too dangerous.

Not dangerous. You pay,

all is possible here.

You can't do that.

Here's a $100.

On one condition.

You take your grandfather

on this trip.

Now put it in your pocket.

Put it in your pocket.

Fat f***er.

Mike 1, Mike 1. Hotel here.

Come in, please.

This is Mike 1,

come in. Over.

We have a problem, mambru,

in karaula

at the refugee camp.

The latrines are flooded,

somebody should go

check it out. Over.

Uh, should we go

straight there? Over.

I think you'd better.

There are 8000 refugees there.

That's a lot of latrines.

Over.

Okay, we're on our way.

Over and out.

I'm sorry.

No problem.

I'm curious to see if you guys

actually fix something here.

That camp was built

in a big hurry.

They got the drainage

wrong there.

The ditches must have collapsed

and all the waste overflows

so we're probably looking

at a swimming pool of sh*t.

That'll make the well

look like a mountain spring.

- A perfect day.

- Yeah.

Hey, your first flooded latrines

are important too, Sophie.

You never forget them either.

Is it gonna be rough?

Nah, we'll be fine

as long as it doesn't rain.
