That Melic is a prick!

He has an amazing wife and

he still screws around! Bastard!

You know her Rahima?!

- C'mon Gaultier,

it's not an elephant.

I'd cook it with my

left foot by now.

What a character!

Two chickens, one spicy.

Dino, where's Rizo?

Why, you wanna pay raise?

He's over there... busy sucking up.

He still didn't give you

that slip?

I've been waiting

since last Friday.

Here you go, love!

- Call me love once again and I'll

shove it down your throat!

Don't make me shove it

down your throat!

What are you fussing about?

- Hey, what's wrong with you guys?

Hey neighbor, can I ask

a question?

How do I get to the

beach from here?

Straight on.

Come on, I'll give you a ride?

To the beach?

To the beach,

any time you want.

Well, I can't.

I forgot to bring my parasol.

Seriously, let me

give you a lift?

Another time, thanks.

Got something to do, eh?

Work liberates you.

Yeah...

from what?

From life.

For the road.

Thank you.

Can I help you?

Hello Jasna,

how are you?

Monday's fine.

Nedim will be there.

I'll bring the papers.

Thanks. Bye.

You talkin' to me?

Talkin' to me?

Who do you think you're

talkin' to, huh?

Talkin' to me?

To me?

What's up?

Wanna see what's up?

- Who did you beat up today?

- Now you'll see...

I'm gonna kick your ass.

You'll never beat me.

- What kind of stupid

course did you pick?

You'll see I'll catch up.

C'mon, turn that off!

Ah, I crashed again.

Move this stuff please.

- Get out of the way!

You're losing anyway.

- We'll see about that.

Come on, please.

Turn it off, lunch

is almost ready!

- You just don't know

how to drive.

- You're the one

who can't drive!

Nane, would you like

a multivitamin?

No thanks.

- Try those tricks

somewhere else.

We'll play again later,

you'll see then.

nine Sarajevans were killed

and 38 wounded

in an enemy mortar attack.

Change the channel, please.

This we can keep on, huh?

Man, check her out.

You forgot the salt.

She's hot!

She'll be hot when they dig her

up in two or three hundred

years and find silicon

instead of bones.

I'm eating here!

You and your preaching.

Change it.

What's wrong, headscarf,

when you listened to

those junkies of yours,

that was cool, huh?!

- I'm off...

- Where are you going? - Home.

Come on, one more.

- Nane wait, you didn't even eat.

I'm not hungry.

- Hold on a second.

Take this to Kira.

- Thank you.

- And the playstation?

- Bring it over later.

Bye.

- Come over again.

We're cleaning your room today!

- Don't bother, I'll do it myself!

Yeah, right.

How about we sell

these slot machines?

Yeah, so Kemo will kill us.

Finish that and let your sis

give you a lesson in "Turismo".

You teach me "Turismo?"

- Yeah.

You think you

can beat me?

Yeah, if you dare?

- Do you dare?

Of course I do.

- Let's do it right now.

Come on.

- She thinks she can beat me...

Do I have to?

I pulled a double

shift yesterday.

Ok. I'm coming.

I have to...

I know, go on!

We wouldn't want

Rizo's business to suffer!

Hey Nedo!

- What's up.

Nothing much.

- How about you?

Is your sister good to you?

- You'll see how good she is!

You need some money?

- Nope! We're loaded.

Hey buddy, you gotta

cigarette?

Ma'am, spare some change?

How are you Ramiz?

- I'm fine. What's up with you?

Hey orphan.

Where you headed?

- Catching some sun, huh?

What are ya lookin' at?

- Whatta ya want?

Somethin' funny?

- Gotta problem?

He can't stand on his own!

Hey, Hamza's comin'.

Hamza!

- Thanks, ol' man.

See you later.

- See you.

We had a problem.

- With who?

With that orphan sh*t.

- What's up orphan sh*t?

Who's a sh*t!?

- Whatta ya want?

Leave it, leave it. - Take it easy.

We'll get 'em later.

Hello. Yeah, yeah.

Go ahead.

I'm comin'.

Want to use this now?

- OK.

So, how are you?

Fine.

You?

OK. And you?

How's your mother?

She sh*t her bed

again last night.

I felt like killing myself.

What can you do?

Dino, go get us the star.

Mima, what's wrong?

Can I help?

What a tree!

It's taller than the

one in the Vatican!

Is the perfume gonna be here

by the end of the day?

Sure thing!

But hon, I couldn't get

you that iPhone.

Where's Rizo, guys?

He's over there making some deal.

Why don't you ask Vedrana?

What's that boss?

- Put that there

Panties, that's what!

- Oh, great!

Oh, no. What are you doing,

for God's sake? - Why?

You should decorate it

from top down!

Don't you know how

to do it?

Obviously not.

Are you a Catholic or what?

I must be, I worked on

Christmas, didn't I?

Didn't you ever decorate

a tree at home?

Where were you growing up?

In a cave?

What's your problem, Vedrana?

Seriously, what's with you?

And we didn't grow up in a cave,

but during the war!

Unlike some...

We got paid!

- Damn New Year, I hate it!

Why didn't you tell me

Nedim was stealing?

I told him to tell you...

Today it's you, tomorrow,

someone's apartment!

He's just a kid. I'll sort it

out with him, man to man!

Who gave you the right

to solve my problems!?

You know he's diabetic!

You want him to go into a coma?

- No wonder that other

woman left him.

I've taken care of my brother till

now and I can do from here on out!

What's my tab?

Add it all up, please.

And I'll have an orange juice

and Honey Hearts cookies.

- She's coming again?

- Yes.

No one said you couldn't take

care of your brother...

Just give the girl

what she asked for!

Two hundred and twenty.

No, it's fine. That's for the

stuff he stole.

Are you out of your mind?!

Where have you been all day?

Why don't you answer the phone?

- Can I take a leak in peace?

Did you wash your hands?

Jasna's coming.

I told her you'd be home.

Well, I'm home.

Thanks for the gift.

Although I'm not sure

it's smart to spend

money on things

like this in your situation.

The neighbors

bathroom flooded.

Nedim, how's school?

- Fine.

Nedim, turn around when

you talk to Mrs. Jasna!

How are your grades?

- They're fine.

Any other problems?

When did you go

to his school last?

Just the other day.

OK.

What about the job,

you still have it? - I do.

Where's your pay slip?

I don't have it.

My boss wasn't in...

That's no excuse. You've known

all year you'd need it!

Yes, but...

- Always a "but".

I'll get it.

- When, love?

The medical reports?

This is for October.

Where is the rest?

Just a moment.

Move.

Move the chair.

Help me find it.

Here you are.

- What's this?

It's for November. We didn't

get the one for December because...

'Cos the lady has to work!

Dear Rahima, you know he has

to see a doctor twice a month!

This is very

irresponsible of you.

I'm afraid I'll have to

record this.

I need to go to the toilet.

Nedim's room is cold.

You should get him a heater!

We had one, but...

- And this handle fell off.

It broke...

- Oh, what's wrong

with this couch?

Seems that I'll have

to come again.

I can give you time until...

New Year's is on

Thursday and I have
