You too, Martin.

-The color's no good.

-lt's fine. You'll mess it up.

l want you to look good.

Unplug it.

That's your sister!

Picture's perfect.

Yeah?

Do l know you?

Yes, sir.

We had a long talk about a week ago.

About what?

Your new hobby room.

This is George.

Did you sense that l liked you?

Yes, sir.

Sit down and be quiet.

-What are you eating?

-My tuna fish sandwich.

Tuna?

You can't eat tuna!

Dad killed Flipper.

We're boycotting tuna...

...because they kill the dolphins

that get caught in the nets.

Have ham.

Eat Miss Piggy.

-l'm sorry!

-lt's only my eye.

Oh, my God! lt's coming on!

My baby!

Don't she look gorgeous, Martin?

When the time has come...

...and the moment is right...

...remember...

...use Ramses' Extra condoms.

-We do!

-Ramses' Extra.

Because caring means

all the protection you can get.

Take the kids upstairs.

We learn this in Human Development.

ln Human what?!

Human Development what?!

Chill out, Daddy.

Upstairs!

Nick, upstairs.

You know how your father is.

-l looked fat.

-l liked you.

Home. Out!

l got a gun.

What? She looked beautiful.

l liked it. She made me want to buy

rubbers right now.

l thought it was great.

Rianne, that was....

-l thought you were terrific.

-Really?

l think she's got a hell of a future.

George is afraid. He's going home.

Stick around.

He has a gun.

lt's an old gun

and he's not a very good shot.

That's good. l'm going anyway.

Good night.

-l'll buy you a beer.

-You let him buy it.

You're under 21 . Be back by midnight.

Wait and see. Cops never let up.

l'll have rubbers on my desk,

rubbers in the mail, in the coffee....

lf you'd only kept your mouth shut!

l'm going for a walk.

Give the boys some credit.

ln one ear, out the rubber.

How goes it with you, Hans?

Okay. You, Pieter?

That's quite enough of that.

Come on over here, Hans.

Mind the plastic.

l'm having painting done.

The important thing is...

...are you okay?

No bones broken?

l'm fine, thanks.

Just bumps and bruises, eh?

Yeah, that's all.

Good, good.

However, we lost over $1 million

in Krugerrand.

l know. l'm sorry, Mr. Rudd.

lt happens.

lt's not your fault.

Sometimes things do not go as planned.

As you say, they just happen,

Eh, Pieter?

You give a whole new meaning

to the word, ''drop cloth.''

Certain policemen have become

an intolerable nuisance.

They are obviously on to us again.

How do you propose to handle it?

Warn them off.

lt's my experience...

...that a scared cop

is more useful than a dead one.

A warning?

ls that not a bit tame?

Depends on how you do it.

Then you better look at this.

This is the policeman in charge.
