Saturnin Page #4

---

- Let's talk in private.

- You can talk here.

Nothing, in such a case!

- Call Saturnin back.

- Saturnin took the food...

...on my order.

Whenever there's danger,

women and children have to go first!

So, you want to leave the weaker

of us to the wild beasts.

Milou and I were hungry. We thought

we wouldn't make the journey.

That's why we ate everything!

I didn't know mother took the food...

...stole in fact. I'm sorry for eating it.

I'm not a child and I don't want

any mercy to be taken on me.

Our mistake. We made light of

a danger which poses no threat.

I wanted to ask you Milou,

if you could take my knapsack?

Goes without saying.

- There's a deer over there.

- Where?

- Between the beech trees.

- I can't see it.

- You have to look from here.

- It's wonderful!

You're like a young man again!

A sound mind in a healthy body.

You mustn't believe all those proverbs.

I know a man taken five times to a

hospital. Always badly bitten by a dog.

He thought a dog's bark

is worse than his bite.

A friend of mine stayed here and

he said he'd leave the key here.

Dear doctor, I appreciate your

sense of humor.

In Prague you said climbing trees

is extremely beneficial.

I thought it's just another metaphor.

Then I didn't find the key but a note

saying the key was up in a tree.

I suspected the worst.

It wasn't 5 meters, but 7 meters up.

Driven by anger, I firstly tried to climb

the tree with a rucksack on my back.

But it turned out well in the end.

I spent a lovely week here.

I am repaying it in your style.

Follow my example and your pool

will make you an Olympian.

I wish you good diving.

The key is in the pool.

- How deep is it?

- About 2 meters.

- 3 meters? 4 perhaps?

- It's not that deep.

- Come on, doctor. Jump!

- Jump what?

One, two, three, jump.

Uaaah!

For goodness sake!

That was a terrible dive!

Some people love water

and nobody can stop them.

Is this the one, doctor?

I'm going to make a speech!

It was all uphill yesterday, my friends.

Today it's all downhill.

Your effort will be rewarded! When

we get to the town we'll dine in style.

Hooray!

Aah!

- Hang on, grandpa!

- It'll be all right. Pull it gently.

- Upwards?

- No, pull to the right!

No, gently move it to the left!

Why don't you all pull your leg?

You'll tear me up!

I told you:
Don't count your chickens

before you're out of the woods!

Wouldn't it be nice to spend

the night here, my friends?

Don't be ridiculous!

There's nothing else for it.

Madam, your blanket.

You take two blankets.

You're injured.

- Where did you get the blankets?

- In my rucksack.

- Are you going to do your speech now?

- Yes:
"Good night!"

- We've got a hard day tomorrow.

- Good night.

You ought to have a shave.

- What's the matter, Milou?

- I saw you.

Let's hasten in search of

the Sokol banner.

May our land be troubled

until the battle ceases.

Each stand in their place

so long as the battle wages.

He who renounces his land, the blade

will find his traitorous chest!

- Are you going to have a wash?

- No, and I'm not shaving, either.

Great idea, Saturnin.

I should have remembered as well.

- I've got a bottle like that in the cabin.

- I know, this is it, doctor.

Hunger is the best sauce.

- Prepare for the worst.

- Is there a bear?

No! I think my hunger has passed.

Thank the builder for me.

And buy me some aluminum acetate.

I'm going home.

Young men may die but old men must die.

My husband was your son.

He'll ask you up there if his

wife and son are taken care of.

You're almost 70.

How long do you think you'll live?

Barbora and I went to make

purchases in town.

The shop assistant thought

we were married.

As I see it, it was quite

a nice misunderstanding.

And Miss Barbora didn't

seem to mind, either.

Do not enter.

It enters itself.

Why was Bellerophon never

able to catch Pegasus?

- Someone has to come with me!

- Where?

Up there.

- The single rooms are all occupied.

- Put your dressing gown on.

People who jump off trams will be

immediately caught by the police!

- The director's writing his will.

- Grandpa is a wise man!

He's not in a fit state to

decide about his estate.

I hope you're not implying that

grandpa is of unsound mind.

The director has made his decision.

His relatives will be satisfied.

- Everyone will be taken care of.

- Not everyone! Does he realize this?

The director has left his entire

estate to charity. It's generous, isn't it?

- Don't jump! It's not high enough!

- Milou! We're leaving!

I'm going to have that will

invalidated.

I hope you're not implying that

grandpa is of unsound mind.

Madam!

She's gone mad. There we have it!

I never asked you for anything in

30 years. But I have a request now.

I'd like Saturnin to stay with me.

We've got a plan.

You may have noticed, how often

books state that young men stick

out their chin, prepared for battle.

Try it and see the nonsense!

Human anatomy rules out

this posture.

We've found 120 examples

of such a nonsense.

And we've only gone through

one volume in the library.

Don't look at the driver

while the car is moving!

Talking is not allowed

but looking is.

In this car it's the other way round.

- May I invite you somewhere?

- Yes.

- When?

- Anytime.

- Wednesday at three at the National?

- Do I need to wear a life jacket?

Last time, I wrote to you about the

Public Plot Probability Office.

Anyone can write to us who thinks

the author takes him for a fool.

He sends us the text and we tell

him the truth of the matter.

Here's an example:

A blue cloud of cigar smoke rose above

the desk of Dubsk, the industrialist.

He received Slma the clerk coldly.

But Slma was choking with anger.

He was trembling like a leaf.

He discovered his boss intended to

marry off his daughter to a banker.

Slma cried:
You villain!

- What did you say?

- You're a villain and an egotist!

Your daughter loves me! You're forcing

her into marriage because of money!

I won't let that happen!

Slma banged his fist on the table.

Dubsk the industrialist went pale.

The Public Plot Probability Office

discovered the following:

The industrialist was not Dubsk

but Mikulka. He'd had a hard day.

A blue cloud of cigarette smoke rose

above his desk.

He received Slma in a normal fashion.

The clerk couldn't speak for anger.

- Illvain!

- What did you say?

Illvain! So get it!

Your laughter moves me!

I won't this flatten.

I won't this flatten!

The industrialist was afraid for

his employee's sanity.

Later on it was clarified that

the industrialist had 2 daughters.

The older one will marry

a banker she loved.

The younger one doesn't

want to marry yet.

If she decides to marry Slma,

her father won't obstruct.

Our Office hereby states that

only the cloud of smoke is true.

- Guess who?

- Good afternoon, Barbora.

- What would you like?

- Coffee and something sweet.

Waiter, the lady would like

a coffee and some doughnuts.

- Doughnuts?
