- And until then I can drive?

Well, just watch

the oil level.

He really does it for free?

Yeah, I do too.

I'm embarrassed.

- Wanna come in?

- No, I can't,

But thank you.

- I haven't seen you here.

- What?

I'm Jean-Luc. Who are you?

Gina!

Like a drink, Gina?

What is it?

Sorry...

Jean-Luc.

- I'm a little dizzy.

- C'mon, have a drink.

Beer.

Don't move, okay?

What're you doing here alone?

I hate to talk and

I love to dance.

Can you dance, Jean-Luc?

Well, sort of, yes.

Wanna dance?

Let's dance.

Gina...

Come on, I'm not of porcelain.

Squeeze me.

Stronger.

Stronger?

Hold me tight.

Gina...

What is it?

Gina?

Gina, what happened?

Anything wrong?

What is it?

Are you ill?

It's not you and me.

Don't worry.

- What did I do?

- Just leave me alone.

I lost my bag.

Where's my bag?

My little bag...

It's nothing.

Gina...

What's the matter?

Let's go home now.

Louise...

I'll tell you in a nice way.

Listen.

You and I get along.

I get your mail, I give credit,

I don't ask...

Your life isn't my business.

Do what you want.

But don't start kidding

with my guests...

I have to earn money.

Well...

if you wanna go on like this,

you'd better stay away, okay?

I didn't expect this from you.

Pull yourself together, honey.

So what?

The situation is getting worse.

Do you have a house and a job?

I don't need a work.

I filed a request for an apartment

7 months ago!

I haven't been here long.

So what?

I'll be back.

May I ask something?

I can't pay the bailiff.

Last month I couldn't pay.

And what do you want to know?

He threatens to...

repossess my property.

What can he take?

Furniture.

None left.

None at all?

Nothing of notable value.

A car?

Don't be afraid. Pay a little bit.

Pay what you can afford.

Can he take the car?

If you pay a little, he can't.

That is?

To repossess your

personal property,

he needs a court order.

If you pay what you can,

at least 20 ,

the procedure is delayed.

- Can you manage?

- Hm.

I'll try to fix an apartment.

Try.

- Who is she?

- Her sister-in-law.

I've already worked in hotels.

If it's okay,

you can start right away.

I'll have a look at your CV.

Thank you.

Welcome to the staff.

Like new...

- Thank you, Brahim.

- You're welcome.

- Where're you going?

- To my mother. -See ya.

- Leaving already?

- My wife is waiting.

Thank you. Bye.

What game is this?

It's no big deal.

A son and a wife?

No big deal?

I'll show you something.

Look.

My bag. My suitcase.

My things.

And this is my bed.

I'm getting 50 and

live in a car.

Guess why?

Stop it, Louise.

Thanks for the help,

but I don't need a man.

- You think I'm an idiot.

- I don't think you're an idiot.

But yes. You think so.

Think I don't understand?

I know it, Louise...

Where you park your car...

I know you have a problem...

Stop it.

Don't force me to talk.

Trust me.

You're all screwed up.

Liars.

20 and 10. A total of...

Cash?

No, over 100 only check.

Under 100 cash.

How is it? Cash?

I pay you 90.

Take back this.

Come back in an hour.

This is the first deal of two.

You'll get more cash.

Sign here.

Thank you.

See you soon.

I win.

The main thing is trust.

Mail.

And I can't...

Katie, fill it please.

Where is this apartment?

In the Glacier district.

A one-room on the 16th floor.

The 16th?

With a nice view.

They key?

In a few days.

In a few days?

In a few days?

Thank you.

I'm speechless.

Just listen. Beautiful!

Violin...

Is it here?

Not yet.

It's over there.

- Up there.

- There?
