Do what?

Throw a fish back in the water.

I'm a math teacher.

I was until yesterday.

I quit.

Why?

I refused to pass some students

against the principal's wishes.

Or something like that.

And now?

- No idea.

- Don't worry, it'll be fine.

Be kind to others,

and they'll be kind to you.

It's more about having the freedom

to do my job properly.

Freedom?

Tell me who's free.

I mean, really!

Here's the way it is.

I don't like to make

the professional compromises

society expects of me.

So I refused, that's why I quit.

And that's why I'm here

trying to relax.

Do you work for money?

Yeah, why?

If you work for money,

you have to do what you're told.

I disagree.

But that's the way it is.

Tell me, do you work for money?

I do.

And I do what I'm told.

That's all there's to it!

That's not the point.

I like what I do.

Maybe I like what I do.

Then again, liking what you do

doesn't really exist.

Why?

Because people don't like to do anything.

They don't like to work.

They just want to sit around all day

and do nothing.

When they get on a bus,

for even 5 minutes,

they sit right down.

They won't even stand

for five minutes.

They make others make room for them.

What people really like to do is sleep!

Lounge in bed all day long.

They could spend

their whole life in bed!

And when they can't stay in bed,

what do they do?

They sit down

and nod off.

Like you do in your office, I bet!

No chairs here!

And look...

We plopped right down on

our asses!

You saw that on TV, too?

Don't make fun of me.

I'm right, aren't I?

If you say so.

Are you mad?

I just think we're all lazy...

It's true.

You want to have kids?

I think so.

It's great to have kids.

You want kids?

Yes. Well, no.

Yes and no.

I'd like to have kids,

but I want them to have a father.

It'd be better.

I know why you two

are having problems.

Problems?

Never mind.

Go ahead, say it.

Forget it.

Come on, tell me.

Forget it.

Got a cig?

- Tell me.

- Really, forget it.

Give me a cig!

Give me a cig I'll tell you.

I love 'em.

Can I take two?

So?

Give me a light first.

If you tell me...

Come on, give me a light.

I'm not saying.

It's annoying to make a promise

then break it.

You two haven't been making love.

What?

You were eyeing my tits.

I was eyeing your tits?

You should tell Miha you love her

and that you'll take her.

You're a super-wonderful couple.

You should mind your own business

and stop meddling in my affairs!

Don't you think?

I'm sorry.

I just wanted to help.

In what way?

What're you doing?

What the f***'s he doing here?

You gotta know what you want,

you can't just "fish around".

I'm going for a walk.

He's an old acquaintance...

Mihai's all alone.

How's it going?

Fine.

And you?

You two seem quite chummy.

What did that guy want?

Guess?

Maybe he's a client.

Are you jealous?

What kind of a question is that?

That stupid ranger again.

I thought he had no bullets.

Cartridges.

There was a dead rabbit

in his bag.

Really?

It was still bleeding.

But I didn't want to tell you.

God, they're all a**holes!

He could shoot us

and get away with it.

What's that on your lip?

Where?

It's herpes.

Must be the sausages.

Don't you think Ana's a bit weird?

No.

No weirder than others like her.

Why?

What'd you two talk about?

A bunch of gibberish.

Gibberish, huh?

Don't you think we should leave?

She knows what happened.

How could she?

She told me

she knows what happened.

She said that?

She hinted at it.

How so?

What'd she say?

Why're you getting angry?

Tell me!

You think she's oblivious?

- I was under the impression...

- Come on!

Tell me exactly what she said.

- I already did!

- What?

She said she'd been hit before

and had the same bruises.

She said that?

Yes!

Is that what she said?

Yes!

F***!

We should give her some money.

She doesn't want any.

You offered her money

and she refused it?

Yes.

Why'd you tell her about us?

I didn't. She asked...

What'd she asked?

How long we've been together...

Why'd you tell her

we haven't been having sex?

- She told you that?

- And she didn't hint at it.

- She said I said that?

- Yes!

- She's out of her mind.

- No, you are. Telling her that...

- You think I did?

- Yeah, you and your big mouth!

- You're a real idiot!

- Yeah, right.

I'm the idiot, not you!

- Did you tell her?

- No.

You should've mentioned it before

if it bothers you so.

I'm sorry, sweetie.

You know I love you.

I know it's a real problem,

but we'll get through it.

The stress at work hasn't helped.

You know I really love you.

That's why you eyed her tits?

- You're imagining things.

- Yeah, right.

I love you, sweetie.

I know we've drifted apart...

Please, not now!

You said you'd talk to him.

I did.

Well, I tried,

but his phone was off.

Try again, now!

I can't.

Why not?

Not in this situation!

What situation?

Do you still love me?

Yes!

But I can't tell him

after what's happened today.

Can we please go?

She ruined our day!

I'm not leaving till you tell him.

Ana!

That's me.

How's it going?

Fine.

Is that a wig?

See what I got?

You like them?

Very nice.

lonut gave them to me.

He's so sweet.

Where's he now?

Up the river, washing himself.

How do you know him?

I met him a while ago.

Around here.

What's that, herpes?

That's what you get

for eating so lustily!

They say half the people

come from birds,

the other half from fish.

You watch too much TV.

I learned it at school.

The teacher said those who come

from birds are more sensitive...

Like poets.

And the others?

I don't know.

They dive.

I think I come from a bird.

Why, are you artistic?

No.

Because I don't swim!

You want some?

No, thanks.

So tell me...

How'd you end up

doing what you do...

Prostitution, you mean?

I like to make people happy.

Do you make people happy?

Happy?

I try.

How?

You want me to show you how?

Are you happy?

Ana, I know why

you're acting like this with us.

Miha told me.

What?

That you know about the accident.

Let's stop pretending.

It's all my fault.

We should've taken you

to the hospital right away.

Miha was in shock.

You really love her.

Yes, I do.

And I think...

anyone would do the same

for someone they love.

I understand.

You can go to the police...

and tell them what happened.

Do you hear me, Ana?

You can tell them everything.

Tell them what?

What happened.

Who'd believe me?

Ana, listen. I...

beg you to forgive me.

That sounds so stupid, f***!

What I mean is...

If there's anything I can do

just tell me.

There is one thing.

What's that?

We could lie together.

What?

We could have sex.

Are you crazy?

- No, you are.

- You are.

You're crazy!

God, I've never seen

a man turn me down.

What's so disgusting?

Why does it shock you?

You'd feel better

and it'd make me happy.

How's that?

You just f***ed that other guy.

You saw me f*** him

or are assuming I did?

And what if I did?

It'd be different with you.
