That night, out drinking, Helen tries to sing at a bar. Next day, Fran visits his wife and children and meets a grandson. He could stay, but decides it's not for him.

It takes so much you can,

and then you die when you can.

It sounds reasonable.

Man dies when you can.

It is thus well-we agree

We have it great. But we have

-We are on the ground bar.

-Yes, guess.

Let's go over to Jack,

Why do not you stop drinking?

It is the use for people like you.

You could have a gramophone

I have owned everything res before.

If you do not take up together,

Hello, boom. River in a drink?

I am no boom.

I know it. You are a real guy.

You work.

I knew a guy once

that is similar to a lot on Francis.

-I liked him very well.

-That, I believe certain.

Guys were wrong for Clara.

But she is pretty sick.

That's why you can not be here.

Let me say one thing:

I look up to Clara.

You are full. There may be a rest

of life. Now, I leave you.

-What should I come up against her?

-The time is a lot of people.

Yes, dear friends.

Now the knalles pieces.

Make a sandwich to me.

-I take it with.

-No!

When you were hungry, you came home

-I set up a link to him.

-Do you like strong cheese?

-I love it.

-Good night.

-Good luck.

See you.

-Fryser you?

-Yes.

I can not be out in the night.

When I die.

-I had to have air.

-It can not be far.

-Take a bit.

-This is when I kvalt.

-You are going to like it.

-I am no fraud.

It is not I, either.

I think I go to you.

You are not correct sapiens.

Therefore, you can not borrow a bed.

-When I got my sandwich?

-Yes, you are amazing. A worm.

Stop glo at me that way.

I crush you into the car.

You have listed up

as an idiot in 9 years.

Jack said that I should be able to be here.

But do not you, because you racket.

-Now I eat the sandwich.

-Make the final.

And I am grateful

for everything together.

You are a true saint.

You are not correct sapiens.

-You're angry at you.

-This is dog food.

You make me crazy. Look to find you

a place to sleep.

-I call to my brother.

-Fine.

Call to him twice,

so he can throw the pipe back on.

-Do you have money to call for?

-The raker you do not.

You were straightforward enough

before you started with all the wine.

I retrieve some cardboard.

So we sleep in the old building.

-No, I can find me a place for themselves.

-You do not have any places to go.

-Are you having a chew on?

-There have I ever tried before. Just turn.

I do not turn up.

I love you.

You must not go your way.

You go up just wild.

-Fryser you?

-Yes.

I can not be out in the night.

When I die.

-Finny, there's the visit.

-Who heck is it?

Francis. Move you.

Make room for Helen.

-You get a bottle for it.

-Fine.

-Do not be afraid.

-"Oh no.

She has been here before.

We hit her in the morning,

or on the mission.

Why do not you sleep here, too?

There is no room for legs.

Keep your courage up.

No, I can not sleep here.

I can only pray to God.

Do not touch me there.

It hurts.

I have to talk to you.

Forgive me for I have sinned.

You call it sin.

I do not call the decision-making.

I am not Alkoholiker, and no

man has used me for money.

I have drunk for free many times.

They were allowed to buy drinks, --

-For it is such men should.

I have never deceived anyone.

That's what matters.

I have a good idea --

-That relations with Francis

was sinful in someone's eyes --

-And that I

have sloppy with the commandments.

But nobody will get me to say

that it was a sin to love Francis.

For it has been ...

... the largest in my life.

Now it's over.

Thank you, thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

The priest says

you need someone with a strong back.

Maybe so.

Do you have one then?

Raise the barrel.

Can you promise res?

I have lifted my life.

You get 7 dollars,

and work to what is dark.

Ryggarbeid will provide 8-9 dollars.

Families can buy food

an entire week for 7 dollars.

-7.50.

-7.

-Javel, it does not matter.

-Jump Up on the planet.

Hello!

-Would you like to have the rest of the bread?
