Fair Play Page #3

- Why didn't you tell me?

- I didn't feel like it.

I see.

He writes he'd like to see you.

You might apply for a travel permission.

He's doing much better now.

You know what his conditions were.

They won't grant it to us anyway.

Not to me... but you're

in the national team now.

Ls worth trying.

Good old B12.

Mum?

- Are you asleep?

- No.

Even if I did go to Hamburg I don't think we'd get along.

Why? He's your dad.

- He likes you.

- I don't know.

We talk once in a blue moon.

Last year he forgot about my birthday.

These things happen.

It was so selfish of him

to run away and leave us here alone.

Well, is not like he left us here alone, in fact.

We had a deal that d take you

and come to him when he's settled.

But I wasn't sure if going there

was the right thing to do.

Why?

Didn't you love him anymore?

Ls hard to say, I don't know. I...

I wasn't sure

if I still loved him,

if I could live abroad.

I didn't feel like leaving it all here behind.

I also believed things would change here.

Now m sure that it was the biggest mistake of my life.

Women's 200m race is about to start.

Ready!

Anna, mind the knees!

Steady!

Anna!

Anna!

23,09! Excellent, Martina!

You're just a few figures away

from the limit. Greatjob!

Hi.

- She sucked today.

- I know.

I feel like Anna refuses to cooperate with me.

She's changed somehow.

- Is it because of her boyfriend?

- No, not that.

So what is it? I don't recognize her.

She was always so persistent. Lately

Martina has been doing much better.

I won't be able to keep Anna

in the Centre if she doesn't deliver.

She stopped taking Stromba.

- When?

- On Christmas.

Why the f*** would she do that?

Now ll be in a trouble.

They'll kick her out of the Centre

and she won't pass her next check-up.

- Did you make her do that?

- For Christ sake, no.

- Why didn't you tell me right away?

- Because she wouldn't listen.

She'd rather get expelled than take it.

- Do you still give her the B?

- Yeah.

From now on you'll give her

Stromba instead of the B, clear?

- I can't do that, Bohdan.

- We must pull together.

We both want the same thing.

You want her to go to the Olympics.

Then she must make the limit in April.

Anna can do that but only with Stromba.

ll call you. Bye.

Anna, shouldn't you reconsider the Stromba?

Martina is so far ahead of you.

Can't you see it?

None of us made the limit.

Anna, I know is wrong but...

Why don't you take it only

until the Olympics. It would be fine.

I hear everyone does that.

Ls as if you said that those who

want to achieve mustjoin the Party.

There are certain borderlines.

You should know better.

Have you forgotten it drove me to the hospital?

- Yes?

- Hello.

She didn't even say hello.

Hello.

Sign here.

You see, my daughter is an athlete,

she is in the national team...

Madam, your application for travel

permission has been rejected.

I can't help you anyway. Sign here.

- Can we appeal against it?

- No.

She hasn't seen her dad for 15 years.

Listen, if Mr Moravec hadn't emigrated

your daughter could see him more often.

But Mr Moravec did emigrate.

Thas not my daughter's fault.

Neither is mine. Bye.

All goes according to plan.

She gets injections as you prescribed.

- I know but the results are zilch.

- I did give them to her as you ordered.

You didn't exert yourself today.

At the races you didn't shine too.

Wait outside.

- Goodbye.

- Bye.

She's the only one unaffected.

Her figures have not changed since October.

She had some troubles with her boyfriend.

Thas psychological not physiological.

It is true but...

She just lost her interest in training.

But she has come to her senses.

Here you are.

Tell your mum this is the next round.

Three weeks of Stromba this time

and then a week off. Starting tonight.

Bye.

- Hi.

- Hi.

There's Stromba in the box marked with a

cross. She must take it for three weeks.

Okay.

- Bye.

- Bye.

Yeah, the training went well.

How about you?

- Sh*t.

- Mum, I can't hear.

Dad brought you a gift from Vienna.

A beautiful pink Adidas sweatsuit.

Thas so nice of him. Thanks.

Mum, are you alright?

m fine.

I know you. You were pounding

into the typewriter like crazy.

You were just imagining it.

ll go prepare the B for you.

- Hi.

- Hi.

What kept you so long?

ll be late for work.

Sorry, I thought they're following me

so I took the long way round.

- How are you?

- Fine.

- Here you go.

- Thanks a lot.

I met this French guy from the embassy.

He's willing to marry someone

and help her get out of here.

I thought you might be interested.

Thas great.

If Anna really left it would be great.

It would.

But...

You know d rather have you here.

But this will be better for you two.

Come on! Go, go, go!

Greatjob, Martina.

Come on!

What are you doing, losing again.

Are you giving it your best at all?

Les go again.

Steady!

Anna, speed up!

Good, Martina. And again.

So you met him in the building where you work by accident?

And in the dock also by accident?

- You used to be a couple, right?

- Yes.

But it was a long time ago and it is my private business.

Relationship with a dissident

is way beyond privacy. You know that.

So what will you tell us about Mr Kriz?

How often do you meet?

Very rarely.

We think you meet pretty often.

Wouldn't you like to have a job you'd enjoy?

You could work as a coach.

Telling us something about Kriz

every now and then would suffice.

He is the one we're after.

I inquired about your daughter.

She graduated with decent results

but was not accepted to the university.

However she did get enrolled

into the National Sports Centre.

But I heard they hesitated.

Mrs Moravcova, if you don't start cooperating

your daughter's sport career is over.

Do you want to ruin it?

Be reasonable and sign the cooperation.

We would be glad.

Could I think it over?

How much time do you need?

I don't know.

Ok, we'll give you some time.

Mum?

What was it like when you quit playing tennis?

Why are you asking?

Did you miss it?

They forbade me to play.

I knew I mustn't feel sorry.

There are other things in the world, notjust sport.

I think they'll expel me from the Centre.

- Did Bohdan say anything?

- No, but m at a standstill.

Sooner or later they'll find out why.

I have no clue what I would do.

If I were to quit running it would...

It would feel as if someone cut off my legs.

You can run regardless of the Centre.

Yeah, run. But you can't race.

m going to sleep.

We forgot the B.

Knees, knees.

Anna, speed up!

Work your arms. Come on!

If you keep dawdling like this

you'll get beaten in Germany!

Come on!

The vest must contain the Olympic gold or what.

9 kilos of weight set.

You look splendid, girls.

And I have another surprise for you.

This is instead of alpine training.

- Here you go.

- You can't mean this.

Why shouldn't I?

Anna, speed up!

Don't try to piss me off!

Speed up!

Work the arms, come on!
