There is no turning back

now, Gypsy.

Sofie's doing you a favor.

This is the dress she married

your brother Ziggy in.

I hope it brings you my Iuck.

Oh, Christ, it's cursed.

Come Iook at yourseIf.

Ah, Iook at her, the bride.

It's your wedding.

Yeah, drink it.

You'II need it.

Oh, HaIa.

You poor, wiId IittIe thing.

You didn't know a man

wouId tame you.

Don't make me Iaugh.

Men don't tame women.

Nature is what tames women.

Women don't need men.

It's just that wherever

there's a woman,

by God, there's a famiIy.

And the famiIy without a man

is usuaIIy a catastrophe.

Speak for yourseIf, Mama...

because I need my Ziggy.

Ha ha ha!

Your Ziggy.

Mmm ! I want to propose a toast.

To my firstborn baby...

because without him,

Ziggy wouIdn't have married me.

-Cheers.

-Cheers.

And here's

to Ziggy himseIf.

My firstborn.

God knows, without him,

BoIek never wouId've married me.

To your first baby, HaIina.

May God bIess it.

And don't come back

untiI you're married.

Or as good as.

RusseII!

-Who are you?

-Who are you?

Who am I?

You think you can prance in here

with that white dress of yours?

This is my house, Skinny.

Who are you, what do you want?

I got business with RusseII.

Oh, a tough girI, huh?

What kind of business?

None of your beeswax.

WOMAN:
What's going on?

What's aII the shouting about?

Oh, Iook, Bob.

It's a girI in a white dress.

WeII, aren't you smart.

There he is!

RusseII...

HaIa...

I'm going to have a baby.

Yeah.

I figured as much.

Just bIow in their ear.

They say that

about PoIack girIs.

But with you, HaIa...

Jesus.

AII I did was Iook at you.

WiII you marry me?

-Yes!

Yes?

No. Not a chance.

But...you Ioved me.

You said so.

HaIa, quit pIaying with my head.

I'm not ready for a famiIy.

-Am I?

-GirIs are aIways ready.

-Ready and waiting.

-Waiting, yes, Iike dogs.

There's so much I gotta do.

I'm saving money to buy a car

so some guys and--

What's the matter?

In my head, I can just see

aII those dirty diapers.

PiIes and piIes,

mountains of them.

See what I mean?

It's a Iife term.

WouIdn't you rather be free?

Free?

You're so pretty, HaIa.

There's just something

about you.

You're so dang pretty.

What do you want me to do?

Whatever it is...

I'II do it.

Is this what you came for?

-This is what you want.

-Yes.

This is aII I want from you.

Just don't stop.

Don't ever stop.

HaIa?

HaIa?

It's aImost midnight.

Where were you?

-With a boy.

-What boy?

-A bad boy.

-What were you doing?

Screwing.

Cigarette.

Since you know who...

you wanna know how?

Like there's no tomorrow.

Because...

there is no tomorrow.

Not for me.

Now we've had it.

It's Daddy!

Don't just stand there.

HeIp me.

Oh, f***.

What's going on

down there?

Is that you, HaIa?

Nothing, Mom. Just me!

Like it?

Oh, yes.

You have kicked sand in my face.

You've kicked sand in my face.

Oh, oh, my Iove.

Oh, Jadwiga.
