The Lesson Page #2
Right?
The doughnut has taken
all the space here.
- He is rather fat.
- Yeah.
- He is too fat.
- Yeah.
He is too fat to jump over the fence.
No, this is not going to happen,
nobody's eating me, honey or no honey.
What's the English for honey?
Do you know?
No.
Say it again.
Well done my little girl...
And so, as soon as the granny
turned over to pick up the honey,
it jumped off the table
into the doorway,
from the doorway to the yard,
and from the yard onto the road.
Hello?
Are you listening to the story?
I want to go to Daddy.
Come on, close your eyes
and let's go to sleep.
- No.
- Come on.
- Come on, sweetie.
- No.
Come on.
What is it now?
Tell me.
What is it now?
What do you want now?
Tell me?
I want Daddy.
Come over and put her to sleep!
Faster!
Come on.
We arrived, Dea.
We have a small child and you cannot
simply throw us out on the street.
You realize there's no way we can pay back
the rest of the credit in two days.
I understand but the procedure
has been activated
and there's nothing I can do.
Can't you stop this procedure?
No way, these are the rules.
Don't tell me about rules
when you don't observe them yourselves.
You raise the interest rate as you wish.
No preliminary notice.
The bank has the right to raise
the interest rate, check out your contract.
You should check out your brochure-
it says it's a fixed rate.
I'm sorry but you have signed a contract
which says otherwise.
I bear no responsibility
for the promotional materials.
But you bear responsibility
for having given misleading information.
What is more,
that you're obliged to notify us
when you raise the interest rate.
Nobody from your bank did.
So I can sue you for failing
to observe the agreement.
I want to settle things like normal people.
Which means you stop
the procedure and I'm not...
Look!
You can file a complaint or sue the bank.
I can do no more for you right now.
You can.
You can f*** yourself!
Have a nice day.
Nade?
Nade, open the door.
Nade, stop this bullshit.
Is the boss here?
I have to speak to him immediately.
- He's busy now.
- I'll wait.
- The meeting will be long.
- No problem, I have time.
He has business meetings all day.
- Come tomorrow.
- No, no!
He can spare five minutes for me.
- Do you want water?
- No.
Any coffee?
- Any coffee?
- No.
Okay, then, we have a deal.
Nadentze!
Kshishtov, Nadya...
...Kshishtov.
Come on... until Tuesday.
You're fortunate!
- Really!
- Yes.
Yes, everything's OK.
Cheers!
- The money's been transferred?
- Cheers!
It will be transferred on Tuesday
and you have it on Wednesday.
- You mean Tuesday next week?
- Yes.
No, I need the money by tomorrow.
Look, Nade,
I can't arrange it before Tuesday.
I can't leave this place
without the money.
Do you understand?
You know what?
We'll do the following.
You take a loan for one week.
You pay it back to the bank on Tuesday,
and we'll send you the money,
you return the loan and everything's fine.
Why don't you get a loan instead
and give me what you owe me?
- I can try.
- Then try it.
By tomorrow?
Why don't you call your father?
He has money.
Just call him.
If you want, I can call him?
No, no, no way.
- What's wrong? I'll call him.
- No, I'll call him.
- We'll explain the situation to him.
- No! I'm the one who'll call him.
Fine.
Can I count on that?
On Tuesday I'm getting my money.
Tuesday! Absolutely!
- So I can count on you?
- Yes!
Fine.
Good afternoon.
Is my father at home?
Yes, he is.
Thank you.
Tachi, look who's come to see us!
Nade!
Why didn't you call
to say you were coming?
- Is it inconvenient?
- No, it isn't.
It's fine but we haven't prepared.
Hold on a minute.
Hello, hold on a minute.
Nade, come on in.
Don't take off your shoes.
Galche, make us coffee, please.
Sure.
- With sugar?
- No.
- Any milk?
- No.
Short or long?
Normal coffee.
Okay.
Nade, please, sit.
How are you doing?
Fine.
How is...
...the little one, how is she?
- Andrea.
- Yes... Andrea.
She's fine, growing up.
Next time bring a photo of her.
- Father, I need to...
- You know...
- Go on.
- No, you go first.
I'm glad you finally decided to come,
but next time you must
bring over Andrea...
...to see her grandfather
and meet her Aunt Galya.
When are you going
to put a grave stone for Mama?
I've commissioned it
to an architect in Sofia.
Let me show you.
- Galya!
- Yeah!
Where are the things
the guy from Sofia sent over?
Wait a second.
Don't bother, I found them.
They're just models.
The one with the baby angel is real cute.
I'm going to the bathroom.
Nade! Wait a little!
I'm done.
Sign each page.
- Yes.
You know how I got him -
the guy who pinched the safe?
How?
- Guess! Use your brain a little.
- C'mon, tell me.
Wait.
See this? See the mark here?
- Hardly.
- Hardly, but it's a mark.
I call the jerk to come over.
I ask him to break a fifty for me.
He says, sure boss.
He thrusts his hand into his pocket
and takes out all the cash -all marked.
I'm telling you, man, I seized him,
brought him here.
Put his head here and I'm telling him
eat it, motherf***er, all of it.
And he started eating the notes,
can you believe it!
I told him to stop! Stop it, jerk!
I was pulling his leg
but the jerk swallowed them.
I should've f***ed him, f***ing a**hole.
I've signed everything.
Let me see
how you've filled out the documents.
Wow, big money.
A woman, all by her self,
with so much money!
You want me to drive you somewhere?
No, thanks. I have a car.
Sure, if you have a car.
Come here! The woman is done.
What's this here?
I got it wrong - only this...
Don't worry. It's your copy.
Take a card.
Thanks.
Hey, you're not giving
the lady the marked ones?
It's for you -for coffee.
- Well, we've done our best.
- Thanks.
Good luck with the money.
Hi, miss.
Hi.
- Hello?
- Mrs. Daskalova?
Yes, speaking.
Hello?
It's Mr. Kutsev, the executory officer.
Sorry to bother you, but it's urgent.
Yes, what is it?
Well, there's been a mistake
with the last calculations
and the amount you've transferred is less.
So, I cannot stop the auction.
No, it can't be,
I've transferred the whole sum to you.
The whole sum, every single penny.
Well, there's been a mistake,
and in fact you owe 1 lev 37 cents more.
- How much do I owe you?!
- 1, 37leva.
Are you making fun of me?...
Look, I'm calling you
out of human sympathy.
I saw that you were short
and I decided to call you
so you don't lose your house
over 2 leva.
- So please don't yell at me!
- Well, I'm sorry.
What am I supposed to do now?
You have to transfer the sum
by the end of business hours,
because the auction is tomorrow.
Come in.
Mrs. Maneva, I have to go immediately.
My husband's in the hospital.
- Go, then.
- Thanks.
Hi, Nade.
One second please.
