Alois Nebel Page #2

- Yes.

In that case, you don't have

to pay next time.

- You're not from round here?

- No.

- Where are you from?

- Bl Potok.

- Have you had breakfast?

- Not yet. -Hold on.

Have one.

Thank you.

Your collar.

It's still tucked in.

Look, she gave you a bun.

A poppy-seed bun! She likes you!

Hey, baby!

- What'll you have?

- Vermouth.

Maruna, vermouth!

To cheer us up.

- Is this seat free?

- Of course.

- So you haven't left yet?

- Not yet.

Where exactly are you from?

- The Jesenky Mountains.

- I used to go to the spa there.

It's beautiful there.

And what are you doing here?

There's something

I have to sort out.

- Spectacles.

- Sorry?

It's named after the front windows.

They look like glasses.

In our mountains there are

more Bardots. After the actress.

Because the front of the engine

has these big...

Breasts?

You know, my husband never

told me about any of this.

They all have names.

Are you staying over Christmas?

My little darlings!

Put the peas in the basket

and the rice in the sack.

You're so good!

How'd you know I like carnations?

I didn't.

Snowdrops are my favourite.

In the spring.

- I haven't had Christmas carp

in years. -Neither have I.

- I usually do schnitzel.

- Sure.

I find Christmas very moving.

I always preferred

to work over Christmas.

Since my husband died,

I also prefer to stay here.

And you? You're also alone?

Yes.

I have...

...a cat.

Santa left something for you here.

A Pinocchio train.

M131.

Shake it.

Shake more.

Shall we dance?

Are you reading timetables?

It relaxes me.

But it's the same thing

over and over, isn't it?

That's the point.

Well, the trains don't

follow any timetables anyway.

...and I will ask Vclav Havel

to take the presidential oath...

Alois, you old dog.

I knew you'd come!

- I'm waiting for Kvta.

- You wanna piss me off or what?

Rum for everyone, and a beer for me.

Hi Alois!

- To freedom!

- So, to freedom!

- Aah, Bertie!

- For me?

I've got to go, guys.

Let's play a round

of Russian roulette!

Poker faces!

I've been looking for you

and you were here all along.

Me too.

Thank you very much, Mr Nebel.

I trusted you.

You can keep your flowers.

You're all the same.

Kvta.

Madam Kvta.

Jesus, Kvta!

What the f***'s wrong with you?

Four, three, two, one!

Happy New Year!

C'mon, kiss me...

Come here!

F*** the railway man...

Alois!

Dorothe!

- Where are you going? -Don't be

afraid. Everything will be fine.

What did I tell you, son?

- Goodbye, Dorothe.

- Goodbye, Mr Nebel. Bye, Alois.

Dorothe, you don't have to leave!

Stay here with me!

Leave her alone, Wachek!

C'mon, we have to go.

- I'm not finished with you.

- She's coming with me.

- You Nazi pig!

- Goodbye, Wachek.

Stop, you bastard!

- What have you done?

- Close the doors. Go!

It's all your fault!

You'll get what you deserve!

If you weren't getting paid,

I'd never see you down here.

So, I take

three hundred for rent

and a hundred for food.

How's it going up there?

- There are a couple of trees that

need cutting down. -I'll see to it.

It's a deal then.

Goodbye.

Give us another round,

Alois has joined us for a drink!

Someone broke into another house.

Old Jurk told me.

Everyone's just doing what

they want these days?

Alois, let's go.

...this increase of crime

was caused by the general amnesty

granted by

president Vclav Havel in January.

This Havel must be

a real a**hole. What is he up to?

You got us into a real mess with

those Prague students, Alois!

I'd just take a big stick

and shove them all in the river.

- I'd better be going.

- Shut up. Give us another round!

Good night.

Thanks.

Alois.

Alois.

We have to leave.

Away from here.

Don't worry.

We'll be back one day.

Goodbye.

Some perfumed letter

arrived for you from Prague.

Who were you charming there?

Who gives a f***.

That's all.

A hundred thousand.

Good.

Son! Where are you going

to put this stuff?

Calm down, dad.

People will always drive,

eat, and drink.

- We won't be able to sell all this.

- We'll sell everything.

I'd like to see that.

Have a drink.

To friendship!

- Tasty?

- Yes.

The Russian bastards

are finally clearing off.

That's Dorothe, she took care of me

after my mum died.

She had to leave after the war,

like all the Germans.

I'll do it.

We've brought you that food.

I'll give you a hand.

- Small but tidy!

- Your father would be proud of you.

If I were a woman,

I'd marry you in a second.

Arriving tomorrow 9:23 stop.

Kvta stop.

Who's Kvta?

Kvta's Kvta.

Well, sh*t on me!

How about a little drink?

And keep your eyes open.

Bye.

- Where have you been so long?

- Give me a break! In this weather?

- Fanda, look out!

- Sh*t!

That was close.

We're f***ing stuck!

Tell Wachek to get moving!

You must be Kvta.

How do you know?

I'm Wachek. Dispatcher.

- Is Mr Nebel here?

- Alois? No, he isn't.

But perhaps

I could help you instead.

I don't think so.

Would you care for a quick grog?

It'd come in handy in this weather.

- How do I get to his house?

- I could give you a lift.

If you go on your own, you'd walk

over the hill. But in these shoes...

Just a moment.

Wachek. OK, Dad.

Give me a second.

Calm down, dad.

I'll be there right away.

I said, I'm on my way!

Was she here?

Yes.

- Then where is she?

- I don't know.

I offered to give her a lift.

- Which way did she go?

- Over the hill, I guess.

You idiot!

- You have a train stuck up there.

- She wouldn't listen.

Wait, I'll give you a lift!

I must go to see my dad!

Kvta!

Oh God! This is too much.

I can't believe this!

Kvta!

Madam Kvta!

Bloody hell, where have you been?

It won't be long

before everything's under water.

What the hell do you want?

Booze? Money?

So come on, you bastard!

When you've made it this far.

I knew you'd come one day, son.

How's Dorothe?

When this winter is over

white snow will melt away

and reveal a renewed landscape

When this winter is over

ice will break apart

and make rivers overflow its banks

Now the wind

is searching for a crevice

fire-water will be appreciated

Now the wind

is searching for a crevice

water is thicker than blood.
