- Why?

- I just think you're so sweet.

- Uh-oh... did you hurt yourself?

- Ah, just a little. No problem.

Masl, go inside for a bit.

There's... it's snack time.

- Hello, hello.

- Good morning.

- Do you know Masl at all?

- That one? No, not really.

- No, just ogling children.

- What?

As if you didn't hear...

Don't you need to be somewhere?

- Can't I be here?

- I'm asking if you have somewhere else?

No, I'm just on my way home.

Right then. Wouldn't it be nice,

if you just pissed off there then?

Slvi...?

- What?

- Is everything right?

Yes, I just don't

feel like going in.

No, I know. But shouldn't we

just make the most of this?

I mean, if it's dreadful,

we just go home.

- Promise?

- Of course.

Let's just enjoy being together, Ok?

Hey! See that one there

in the snakeskin boots.

- That's Hannes.

- No way!

Breathe in, breathe out...

Feel my lips, then head

straight for me...

- Aren't you gonna leave some for me?

- Yes, this is, well, my boss.

- Siggi.

- Hello, Agnes.

Agnes, I know all about that...

Nice to meet you.

- Yes, you too.

- How are you? How do you like it?

- It's just fine.

- Isn't it?

- It's just...

- Are you happy?

- Yes I am.

- And how's the set of wheels?

- Well, it's just...

Isn't it? I told you so...

Hey Slvi, I should introduce

you to Hannes...

...it's about time he met our star...

Hannes, Slvi.

- This is so good for the baby's blood.

- What did you say?

This is so good for the baby's blood.

See, she kicks.

Just what the doctor ordered.

Yes...

Cheers, everyone now...

You're wonderful.... cheers!

And if this keeps going so well,

the guy in the snakeskin boots

will have to dish out higher bonuses...

Just so that's clear...

But we have another

reason to celebrate...

We have a new centre in the team!

You might have noticed him, he has a

Colgate smile and beautiful blue eyes.

And I've noticed in the

short time he's been here,

he knows quite a bit more than

how to kick a ball around...

Though I wouldn't mind having him in

the company football team with me.

The trophy home!

I finalised the transfer yesterday,

straight from the national team...

Slvi, come on up and show

yourself, don't be shy.

I promise I haven't whipped

his ass yet... so that remains...

Girls, other than Agnes...

Sorry Agnes.... Right, that's all.

Cheers for Slvi and enjoy the evening!

Cheers!

- Are you annoyed I left you behind?

- No, I wasn't alone of course.

I was with the pregnant woman

drinking red wine, and watching...

- You know how these parties are.

- Yes, I know.

Kiss me.

Hey, look. Do this.

- "My name in Slvi".

- My name is Slvi.

"And I'm never going to
