that's beautiful...

No, but can you imagine...

How often I have to go to Palanga now...

everything just shakes, I...

Get out of here, Mr. PE,

that's beautiful...

No, you just understand that love, I

don't know, if I saw her, well I'd...

Go on, don't stop.

What?

Wait a minute.

What are you doing here?

Why aren't you sleeping?

I'm sleeping.

Who's home?

I am.

Oh, what's this?

Lunch.

Lunch.

Lunch for three?

Yeah.

Do you think Ramutis will like it?

Are you mocking me?

Mocking?

- Huh?

- Mocking who?

Are you hungry?

Why don't you answer, did

you work out too hard?

Would you mind explaining what's going on?

Well this is the way it is now.

Valdas.

It needs to cook for a

couple more minutes... what?

No, I'm not talking about that.

Would you please explain

what's going on here?

What this friendship of yours

with my husband is all about?

What those intimate all-night

conversations of yours are all about?

Well, you know...

Well you were also good that night.

Valdas, please answer my question.

Why are you pretending to be my husband's

best friend and completely ignoring me?

I'm the one who's your wife and you

don't pay any attention to me at all.

But he's the one who's your

husband-you're his wife, not mine.

So what?

I still want you to see me as a woman.

I also want to see you as a woman.

But you're a married woman.

But not dead.

Valdas, I'm tired of waiting to

understand what's going on here.

Why you're here, and what you need.

What are you up to here?

Isn't there anything you want to tell me?

You know...

I spent all 3 years thinking

about what to tell you.

But when I came back,

everything just evaporated.

Because it wasn't you

who opened the door...

Are you mocking me again?

Who's home?

Both of us.

Hmm, what a smell, is

something burning in here?

Your ass is burning.

Yours too.

What did I do again?

What are you worried

about, she'll calm down.

Want something to eat?

Yeah.

Lunch for three.

Yeah, here you go.

To us.

Yeah, give me your plates and dig in.

Of course, best friend first, right?

Right.

A little more. Good. Thanks.

A little closer.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Bread? And a little more.

Bon appetite.

Delicious.

But it's hot, be careful.

Hello? Good afternoon.

Yes, he is. Valdas.

Hello?

Hi. Hi, Vilija.

No, I'm having lunch.

Yeah. What? She who?

Oh, here, it's my ex-wife.

No, there's nothing between us, really.

Well, just some property issues.

She has a husband.

The principal, right.

Listen, I'll call you later, OK?

Yeah, I'm eating lunch right now. Yeah.

Tell her I say hi...

OK, see you. Good. OK, I'll tell them.

Good, yeah...

Hang up.

So what's so funny that

you're supposed to tell us?

So tell us, Valdas.

Tell us what's so funny.

Tell your ex-wife.

I understand that there's

nothing special between us,

nothing that binds us anymore, nothing.

Just, unfortunately, those

property issues, right?

Well, come on Valdas, tell us

what she said that was so funny?

Come on, cut it out.

What do you mean cut it out, tell me.

I'm waiting.

Well what are you picking on him for now. A

person is entitled to a private life, isn't he?

Oh, now we have a lawyer here too, do we?

I have no idea what's gotten into you. It's as

if it's not him who's your ex-husband, but me.

You just keep quiet with your

summer flings. You Don Juan, you.

What, are you jealous?

I don't get it, maybe a person just wants

to have a normal relationship again,

maybe he wants to be

married again, like me.

I definitely don't want

to get married again,

I already rushed into it once, thank you.

Rushed? Once? Did I hear you right? Valdas?

Don't get all wound up, OK?

Rushed? No, why, I'd really like to hear

when it was that you rushed

there and how long you rushed.

Laimute, we've talked about this.

What do you mean we've talked about this?

- You want to go through this again...

- I don't want anything with that...

it's just a huge surprise for me

to hear that you rushed into it.

I didn't know that.

So let's leave that surprise alone, OK?

No, well fine, let's not leave it, let's

clear things up, once and for all.

Fine, so tell me, how did you rush into

it, how did you rush into it, huh?

- You want to clear things up now?

- Yes, I want to clear things up now.

- Clear things up, right here at the table?

- Yes.

Am I getting in your way?

Please be quiet.

No, no, go ahead. Why aren't

you letting my friend speak?

So now we're going to start controlling

who can talk at the table and who can't?

Great, two best friends.

F*** you both! And live together.

Don't worry, pal.

Now you listen to me, Valdas Bickus.

I am not your pal.

Come on, Mr. PE, are you serious?

I am the principal to you! Got it?

The principal.

What are you sitting here for anyway?

Why did you move in here, did

you leave something here?

Money, no money... I'm sick of it, OK?

I'm fed up.

Do you understand that she has

never been jealous of me?

Never, and now she's

making scenes like this.

In general, we... Do you realize that we

have to do everything silently in there?

Because you're sleeping right here.

Do you know that everyone at

school is laughing at us?

They call us swingers.

Do you understand that, can

you grasp that or not?

That I searched the entire apartment

trying to find who knows what.

Our friendship is over, I'm leaving you, and you

can stay alone here with all your rotten mussels.

Hello, Vilija?

Can you talk?

Listen, everything's changed.

Yeah, come over... 3-14 Debreceno Street.

No, don't bring anything,

I have everything.

Well yeah, of course,

it'll be the two of us.

No, no, they definitely won't be here.

Bye. See you soon.

They will be here, won't they, Ramutis?

Won't they, Laimute. We're

not going anywhere.

Wow. Who's this beautiful woman hitchhiking?

Can I give you a lift to the shower?

What's wrong?

Why did you lock the door?

Because you told me to.

But not when we're alone at home.

Laimute, I'm sorry, but

we don't live alone.

He can come in any time

and look me over again.

It's too late.

- Come on...

- I said it's too late.

Listen, Ramutis. I can't do this anymore.

I can't.

I'll go crazy.

What kind of life is this?

We don't spend any time alone, there's

constantly some kind of conflict, constantly...

And you? Ramutis, what

have you turned into?

Some kind of a snoop.

I come home, everything's

turned upside down.

What are you looking for, Ramutis,

what do you keep looking for?

Are you looking for money, or what?

What money are you looking for?

Do you think I don't understand?

No, well I'm... I'm just curious, I mean...

if you had that 300 million,

you know, you would still...

He had to put it somewhere.

I searched every corner of this apartment, but

even if you had it in large denominations,

you'd still have to put it

somewhere that you couldn't hide.

So either he's buried it somewhere

or it doesn't exist at all.
