you stop this recklessness then?

It's not that simple.

- It's exactly that simple.

Assa realized it.

And then you came

and messed his head up.

He lost his happiness

and I lost mine.

So thanks a f***ing lot.

I screwed up everything,

but this is about Assa.

He's losing it.

Anna.

Okay, five minutes.

FLASH PATROL:

Excuse me.

One question.

Why are you doing this?

F***.

This is senseless. This is

like trying to commit suicide.

What do I have to lose?

- You want me to list everything?

Good health. A good job.

A good woman. - Anna dumped me.

I lost my job.

- I'll talk to your boss.

Anna will take you back.

- Yeah, sure.

I talked to her.

Did she say she wants me back?

- Yes.

Okay, she didn't.

But she didn't say she doesn't.

I curse the day I met you.

I'm f***ing stupid.

- No, you're not.

You're just a little confused.

- If she takes me back, what then?

You'll make a baby

and live happily ever after.

Right?

F***! There's nothing like that!

I should've believed you.

My relationships just cause

tears and pain.

I'm f***ing tired of crying

like a girl.

I want to be a man!

Are you with me or not?

Always.

I'll do it.

No f***ing way.

- My costume and my idea.

You got scared.

- No, I didn't.

You did.

- I didn't. - You did.

We'll flip a coin.

- Heads.

Two out of three.

This is so unnecessary.

What the f***? Let me go.

This is for your own good.

God damn!

Assa.

You're my only and dearest friend.

Go back to Anna, okay?

You owe it to me.

- I don't owe you anything.

Soon you will. - Did you hear

what I said, d*ckhead?

Don't you dare go out there!

I'm sorry,...

but unfortunately there will be

no balloon flight today.

Why not?

- Because there's no sense in it.

Saku, I'm sure

you want to use the publicity.

You'd get a lot of attention.

You'll be a hero, and

not a failed javelin thrower.

I don't have the guts.

You can leave.

- Did we come here for nothing?

What do we write about now? Saku!

I'm sorry.

- Don't be sorry. just die!

That's right.

Too bad he didn't die.

Let's go. There's nothing to see.

Yeah, yeah.

- Let's go.

Let's go.

F***. Undo these!

F***!

I'm sorry.

That's okay.

I think I should go.

F***!

Saku!

Assa.

Help!

Saku!

No. No. No.

So you took the battery.

F***.

Saku, I f***ing hate you.

I thank the lord every day

for not getting on that thing.

People often ask me

what! think happened to you.

Based on what I know about Saku

he planned it.

This was meant to happen.

Put that away.

Look!

- Shh.

I did it.

I'll go.

FOR OUR FRIENDS!

And cut!

And cut!

- And cut!

Come.

And cut.

- And peep.

Cut!
