Sorry. Christina told me you're here.

I just finished up.

Come quickly.

Son of a b*tch.

Wow, look at this.

Really, come here. It's crazy.

Is it that bad? - Yes.

That bad? - Come, quick.

I have to go.

No.

- My taxi is coming.

The coffee's ready.

Orange juice is on the table.

Delicious orange juice.

There's cheese,

salami and stuff in the fridge.

When you're ready,

put your toothbrush, slippers and stuff

in the bag in the hallway.

Don't forget your suit,

the rings and to pick up your family.

I won't.

And if there are any problems,

call me on my cell phone.

Your radio waves don't bother me.

I love you.

- I love you, too.

Yes?

Good morning, Mr. Gross.

No, I have to pick my family up

from the airport.

If it'll only take ten minutes,

I'll drop round.

How does 1 or 1:
30pm sound?

Okay, no problem.

See you later.

I'll tell you one thing, Miss:

The haves will always have more

than the have-nots...

Not even an ox

feels at home with a pauper.

If we want to overcome this poverty...

Look at these streets!

...we should only buy goods that are

produced here, not Mercedes, Adidas...

Where do you want to get out exactly?

At the main entrance.

Yes?

- Herghelegiu.

Come on up.

Good morning.

Excuse me.

Come on in.

Good morning. I'm alone.

Hello, Stefan. Good morning.

Hello.

Good morning. Excuse me.

- No problem.

I'll be there in a second.

Are those the two bags?

Yes.

Thanks for letting me

stay with you a few days.

I'm sorry to disturb you.

No, wait.

I just have to put my trousers on.

Help?

No, I can carry them alone.

I'm not an old granddad.

Wait, the telephone.

Yes.

Iris, hello.

No.

When you come into the airport hall,

you'll see me.

Of course I'm picking you up.

How are Mom and Dad doing?

Certainly not.

What do you mean, hotel? You're staying

here and I'll stay with Brindusa.

I'm looking forward to it.

See you soon.

Have a good flight. Bye.

Mr. Herghelegiu?

This is how it's normally done:

first you try...

You try to have a normal delivery.

In my case, they gave me injections

and everything else

to keep me

on the delivery table for nine hours.

I was in labor for nine hours.

I thought I was going to die.

- And then what?

Nothing.

There were complications,

my body rejected the stitches.

There was swelling. They didn't want

to leave me with an ugly scar,

but there was nothing they could do,

the pus had to be removed.

Everything's okay now.

Here, let me show you.

Touch it.

It feels so soft.

He's trying to flirt with me.

Yes?

Immediately.

...yielded profits for the last ten years.

Great, Mr. lorga! You're spoiling us.

We do have something to celebrate.

By the color, it looks like cognac.

Or a really excellent whisky.

Thank you, I'll do that.

Do you need anything else?

Good afternoon, Mr. Gross.

- Hello.

I inspected the machine

again this morning.

In my opinion, it works perfectly...

when you use the correct ink.

That's what I said. - Right.

This was printed with "Akzo Nobel",

European SWOP. Perfect, right?

- Right.

Yes, and why

didn't you insist on using it?

I did, but they didn't have any left.

Weird.

They gave me some right away.

Whatever. Is there anything else?

I had the feeling

that you and lorga don't like each other.

The chemistry isn't right.

The ink isn't right.

Very funny.

Hello, Stefan. - Hi, honey.

Ask him if he liked the restaurant.

I particularly liked the waitresses.

He says he liked the waitresses.

We want to speak with Mr. lorga.

He's still with the French investors.

Is it urgent?

Well... - What did he say?

They want to see lorga.

We'll wait.

- I have to pick up my parents,

but first I have to go to the tailor's.

- You haven't picked up your suit yet?

I'm already on my way.

- I hope you get it all done.

You ate my chocolate.

Sorry.

I'll bring you a box,

two boxes from the airport.

I promise.

See you.

Why don't you ask Mr. Gross

if he'd like to come to dinner?

Yes, of course.

Have you got time tomorrow evening?

Brindusa will give you directions.

He ate my chocolate.

- What did you say?

He ate my chocolate.

Not bad. - Not at all. We just

have to get the details straight.

Christina. - Yes?

Show them Bucharest,

the landmarks of our fatherland:

museums, parks, scenic side streets,

whatever they want.

Don't let them get drunk.

Tomorrow they're going to sign.

Making progress, Mr. Gross?

- Yes, fine.

We're having dinner together tonight.

I'll give you my report then.

This way, gentlemen. Follow me.

Cornel, take them to the machine.

Please tell him I'd like to discuss

my report with him.

I don't know if you're interested,

still interested, but...

I buttered up the Frenchmen today.

Tomorrow they're going to sign.

What's this?

Brindusa, please, what's going on?

Mr. Gross would like to discuss

his inspection results with you.

You should call your resignation

an admission.

"Mr. Gross would like"...

You're so observant.

Tell him I don't give a

f***ing rat's ass about his inspection.

Don't you think

the Germans smell like old cheese?

Why are you talking like that?

And? What's happening?

He understood me.

- You laugh like a fool!

What's wrong? What did he say?

Nothing... He's just very busy today.

Sorry that I behaved that way.

Please forgive me.

I'm ill because I miss you so much.

You're torturing me.

Nini, we're not alone.

So, let's turn our attention

to Mr. Gross's problems.

Right, fatty?

Did you know

that your name means "fat" in Romanian?

Grab him and bring him to my office.

Mr. lorga will see you now.

Thanks a lot.

Paderborn airport is much nicer.

This looks like a bus station.

I don't think so. It's a nice hall,

look at the dome.

- A bus station.

I saw him first! - No, I did!

You've grown so much. Wow!

Hello.

I'm so happy you and your girls made it.

- I hope it's worth it. - Of course.

Stefan.

Hi, Dad.

- How are you, my boy?

I'm last again, of course.

- The last will be first.

Give me your suitcase.

- I'm not that fragile.

You can take mine. - Okay.

Welcome to the Paris of the East.

I hope you like it. - Me too.

Is that a Romanian car? - Yes.

The airport's not that bad.

I think we built it.

We? - Yes.

Iris and the kids in the back with me,

Dad's up front.

- We don't have any room. - I can't see.

What is that? - My wedding suit.

Purple? - Yes.

All right? - Yes.

It looks terrible.

Put it back.

- It's Stefan's wedding dress.

Yeah, yeah.

Nobody told us to use different ink.

That can't be. Mr. Fischer...

How do you say "for 500 years"?

I'm glad we understand each other.

Mr. lorga is glad you're in agreement.

I hope we're in agreement.

One moment, Costel.

Excuse me for a second.

By the way, when is the dinner tonight?

At seven.

I'll write down the address for you.

That'll be it, Mr. Gross.

It was a pleasure.

Good-bye.

Get well soon.

Costel, you can go now.

Leave me. I'm not holding you back.

To symbolize

my respect for your decision...
