Listen kids, can you tell me where building C is?

Please dears, do you know where flat 26 is?

This is building C, isn't it?

Can you tell me that, little girl?

What a drag...

Right, like this. Focus on this, close your eyes...

Don't fear the magnetic waves I'm giving off to you.

Can you feel them flowing inside yourselves?

You feel warm, right? They're working...

Feel how much they're soothing your nerves.

Let yourselves go, relax.

Don't resist if you want to get maximum benefit.

Feel free, talk at will...

Illnessess are always expelled from one's mouth.

Trust me, don't be impatient.

He will come and break the circle that keeps you tied.

Do not feel ashamed of those bad things upsetting you.

First comes the grub, then the butterfly.

He will touch you with his hands and

purifying all the waste that pollutes you.

He will clear all your sorrows and concerns.

You shall leave this place completely healed,

both in the body and in the soul.

You shall stand and walk, but beware!

He can come in at any time...

Be ready to receive him.

You won't see him- because blind eyes don't look outside,

but at what's inside...

but you'll feel him inside your bodies

as I did when I conceived him.

True blood of mine do I offer to heal all your woes.

My son.

Go away...

The hand...

I want her to come back, back...

No, not like that...

Away! Go away!

How dark- Where are you?

Everything must change, I cannot bear this any longer.

Now please, some rest...

Hurt me no more, a little peace please...

Scared! I'm so scared when he comes home drunk...

The children... at home... no...

His hands on the little girl... not her... no

I don't feel you any more!

Don't leave me- I'm so afraid, it's all so dark...

I just can't pay- not under these conditions.

I'm losing out- I'm never going to make it...

I'll take a train- yes, yes! A train!

I know so many funny tales... really so many...

...a train, yes. That's it.

The light! Here comes the light!

The eye!

oh mother, why? Why didn't you come? Help me mother...

Day, night... all the time by the window...

Why do I have to suffer?

You can be so sweet when you want...

I see you coming... and touching me...

I see that... here... like that...

Oh dear don't stop... dear...

Don't go away, don't... oh dear, oh dear, dear...

Make her come back.

Not without her! So all of a sudden she left...

but I'll wait for her- I wait all those evenings...

I've already forgiven her. Tell her!

She's coming! Shhh! Here she comes! Shhh! Shhh!

There is no one left... no one. I'm alone, alone...

Leave me alone. Leave me...

There's no time left.

One minute. It's enough for me. Just one minute.

I'm Marisa.

Me... me me me me. I'm Marisa.

Me, me, me, me!

To come...to sleep... to leave... to come...

Come once again, please! One more time! I want to see you!

I'm waiting at the door for you! Can't you hear me calling?

Why don't you listen?

Come on! Wake up you all!

Wake up! It's over, all over!

Do you feel better now?

Don't you feel relieved?

Rouse yourselves! You're free!

Soon you'll go out and take some fresh air. Wake up.

Goodbye Madam.

See? That advert in the newspaper really did wonders.

I didn't expect so many customers.

but we must persist. Enlarge the business.

Then we'll keep just the very best...

...the most profitable among them.

But I dont like everybody.

Are you tired?

Have something to eat.

They mucked up again!

I know, I know. I'm cleaning.

It's disgusting!

Don't be silly.

It will be clean again in a moment.

Surely I'm not complaining about this.

Thinking that we should live off your poor dad's retirement...

What would be so wrong with doing that?

It's not much, dear son- too little money.

You just don't realize- there's food, bills,

bills, instalments to pay...

Buying all this stuff was definitely frivolous.

I want a gorgeous house!

And this house has been a once-in-a-lifetime bargain!

Come on, arrange those chairs in place.

There are more customers coming.

I've scheduled some private meetings now.

Important people! Good clients!

Some of them would need a good serious punishment, didn't you see?

I know, I know.

I don't like them, either.

Did they show some progress at least?

Did you see any promise?

Don't ask for too much. It's possible to help

at least some of them, but with patience.

Lots of patience.

They look pretty satisfied, anyway.

What really matters, is they must return. Just this.

- Good afternoon, I phoned this morning.

- Please come in, I've been waiting for you.

Give it to me, please.

Make yourself at home.

Excuse the disorder; We receive a lot of people.

Have a seat, please.

What curious hands you have!

Let's take a deeper look at them.

Let me see...

Your hands are very interesting.

You must be a rather tough one, it's incredible.

These hands must be inspected carefully...

Here, there is something...

I see a still point. Have you been seriously ill?

- Yes, as a small child I nearly died!

- I knew that.

but since then everything rushes.

Maybe too much, too much...

I see many episodes overlapped, each one affects another.

All together they form a tangle.

You stay in the middle, calm,

because you have control over them...

...and fortune cares for what you can't control.

See her spinning around and solving problems.

Your character is strong, assertive.

You always get what you want...

...no matter if it takes a long struggle.

An important deal will end successfully

thanks to your perseverance.

A major monetary gain will result.

But don't be blind! There is a man loving you madly

and secretly suffering for you, in the shadow.

Who is this man? What's his name?

Just the first letter!

Not yet. It is hard to read.

Perhaps you'll need to come here once again.

Happiness can be just around the corner,

but you still have to grab it.

Defeat the adverse forces. Have confidence.

Please let me meet him. Help me fly away with him!

one, two, three... one, two, three.

The queen of spades is being held prisoner in the tower.

The Emperor watches her...

She can't meet the Jack of Swords.

Who the hell is the Emperor?

He's the man who holds the power. Money.

Then the queen of spades could be my wife!

And what about the jack of swords?

I didn't get that. Ours is a big family, we've two sons

and two daughters too, the last just a few months old.

Then there is grandma and my brother-in-law,

with a grown up son.

We own three household appliance stores

and we are in need of all working hands.

We enlarged our house and I care for everybody's needs.

I'm the man in charge.

But I can't watch everybody!

The last thing I'd wish would be something secret going on

in my own home, something hidden from me.

Mine has always been an honorable family.

Can't you be more explicit about this issue?

About my wife...

about her last-born son.

The cup, please.

How many people...

At the end of such a day I'm tired, yet happy.
