...or will you need mine?

Are you going to have more coffee?

Then show me... where we're going.

Beginner's luck.

And the guy looks okay.

You know,

I got such a freak yesterday.

First he was fixing his car...

...and then he got on top of me...

...all covered in diesel.

I told him to go and wash,

but he said...

...he hadn't the time

and was late already.

Afterwards I had

to get rid of the diesel with wipes.

You know these wipes with alcohol.

They're good.

I need to buy more.

I wasted all of them on that freak.

- And what's her name?

- Who?

- The new girl.

- I don't know.

- Hey, girls, how about it?

- Man enough for two.

We need to turn up there.

Hey, you missed the turn!

Are you trying to come over,

after all?

- Is this your village?

- Yeah, but it's a town.

Listen, I Don't bring men home.

Anyways it's better in the woods.

The birds sing there.

- Is he gone?

- Yes. Who is he?

Uncle Kolya. I'm afraid of him.

- Is it okay if I sit like this?

- It's okay.

- Where can I find a shop?

- Keep going straight.

There's a market on the square.

Turn here.

Buy some food.

Should I buy vodka?

Buy food,

go home and feed your mama.

Are you stupid or something?

So you're noble?

Decided to give me a ride?

Took pity on the girl?

How compassionate!

Maybe you'll support me?

Look at yourself!

I've seen men like you before.

Maybe you'll come tomorrow, too,

and give me some more money?

Choke on your money!

I'll earn my own. With this!

I don't need your pity

or your hand-outs.

Are you an idiot?

Give me some money!

- Maybe you were just hearing things.

- No, I wasn't.

I definitely heard

a motor being turned off.

And Mute twitched.

And where is he?

There, dragging his ass.

Hey, cripple, you tagged along...

...so don't fall behind.

What do you need him for?

First,

a spare pair of hands never hurts.

What if there's too much

for the two of us to carry?

And second, unlike you...

...he can't tell anybody.

Are you nuts or something?

I was speaking theoretically.

And you get all excited...

Watch it, you theorist.

What are you staring at?

Let's go!

What's going on?

Looks like he's asleep.

It smells of something burning.

That means

he won't be going anywhere.

Fine, on we go. Just be quiet.

Hey, guys,

what are you doing?

Let it bake a bit longer...

What bad luck.

Just our damn luck:

If luck comes and you let it pass,

you'll be left to scratch your ass.

You'll be the one to scratch.

First I need a pick-me-up.

When you're laid out,

you'll need a pick-me-up.

Hey, hold your horses.

- What's there to wait for?

- Wait and see.

Hey, give me that stick.

Why do you need it?

Let it lie here.
