- Apologize for what?

- I'm not apologizing to her.

Nade, we need the money.

What do you want -to have her spend it?

Keep your mouth shut!

We're here because of you...

Sorry.

Galche,

Nadya has come to apologize to you.

I'm sorry.

Pardon?!

I said sorry!

What for?

For scribbling on the photo.

Scribbling?!

You crossed me out!

You know how I feel!

This negative energy

has blocked my chakras.

I know you hate me,

but please, don't cast a spell on me.

Sorry, I didn't want

to block your chakras at all.

It was silly on my part.

The truth is that...

...I got jealous to see your photo

next to the photos of my mom and me.

I'm sorry.

- Did you have your fingers locked?

- What?

I saw your hands.

Your fingers were like that.

I want you to apologize again

but I also want to watch your hands.

What's this crap?

It's not crap. Chakras are something

serious. Apologize again.

Nade...

...apologize.

What's the matter with you?!

I apologized to her twice.

If you don't apologize properly,

don't count on me.

Do you hear what you're saying?!

Apologize to her with my fingers open.

She is insane,

you must be insane too!...

...Or you want to humiliate me

as you did to my mother!

- Shut up!

- All her life you humiliated her...

- You devastated her, you made her sick...

- I did it?!

- You oppressed her, hurt her...

- ...What about you?

What did you do for her?!

She gave her life for you.

To send you to the university,

to make you a lawyer, to send you to Sofia.

What did you do in return?!

You married this geek!

- Come back and apologize!

- Nade, wait...

Immediately, come apologize!

I want you to come back right away

and apologize because...

only a month after Mom's death

you started chasing whores.

Who's chasing whores?!

Yes, you started going out

with whores!

- Are you saying I'm a whore?

- You too are a whore!

No, nobody's a whore here!...

Dea, Dea, we're going. Let's go.

What f***in' games are you playing?

- I'm giving you the house too.

- What do I need this ruin for?

The bank appraisal amounts

to 10 thousand leva.

Yeah, but this is my appraisal,

and if I decide it won't

be worth 10 leva even.

- The car too.

- Cool.

I can give free lessons to Mitko.

I can teach English to your whole family.

- Wait, wait. Calm, calm down.

- I'm at a loss.

Here's what I suggest.

If you don't pay me back by tomorrow...

you go and buy a pair of nice thongs,

put on some makeup,

since you're rather pale.

Then you come here

and give me a blow job.

And on and on...

until you pay back in full.

If you want to pay back

more of your debt -

you must lick other d*cks too.

What are you staring at?!

You're all the same.

In the beginning you all stare,

but then you kinda like it,

and you start earning money even...

Go now, go, I'm busy.

Listen to me, c*nt!

Don't act smart...

I know about your husband -drunkard...

and I know about your daughter,

I know her health status even.

Andrea-that was her name, right?

Unless you want to take Andrea abroad,

but in parts.

Come on, calm down!

You look blasted.

- Good afternoon.

- Good afternoon.

I want to file a complaint.

- What complaint?

- For blackmail and threat.

Okay, sit down and wait...

Hello,

a woman wants to file a complaint...

Blackmail and threat...

Yes...

Fine, I'll send her in right now...

Miss?!

Go down the corridor,

the fourth door to the right.

Come in.

- Good afternoon.

- Good afternoon.

What can I do for you?

Sorry, I got the wrong room.

- Is it the exact sum?

- Precisely.

Good afternoon.

A bank robbery took place in a small bank

in Blagoevgrad this morning,

said regional police commissioner

Stefan Ivanov at a press conference.

Police were alerted at 11 AM,

ten minutes following the incident.

According to initial reports, the perpetrator

was a woman between 30 and 40 years old.

She entered the bank with a mask

and held three bank employees at gunpoint.

She asked for the money on hand and is

believed to have taken around 12, 000 leva.

The tellers were unable

to press the panic button,

but security cameras captured

the image of the woman.

Police are searching

for the suspected woman.

A supermoon is expected tonight...

Return the money immediately.

Clean the blackboard.

- Good afternoon, miss!

- Good afternoon.

Good afternoon, miss!

Ivailo, take your seat and close the door.

- How are you today!

- Good!
