Wanna go swimming

in Heronisos?

How? By boat?

I can't. I get sea sick.

- We'll take my motorbike.

- This isn't a motorbike!

She got up on the wrong side

of the bed again today.

I don't have anything to say

with a Roubletas. So long!

Someone needs to

put her into her place!

I was such a fool not to

stay in the army for 5 years.

I was doing fine there.

At 11 o'clock.

- Hello, chief.

- Hello to you too.

Are you going to the harbor?

There was a quarrel

in the morning.

I know. Those two

are getting into my nerwes.

Let me tell you something.

What kind of dealings do you

have with this weasel, Ibrahim?

- This is my parcel?

- Yes.

- Are you sure?

- I'm sure, Olympia!

Everyone knows that

he is into some con jobs.

Mayor, don't act like

Sherlock Holms to me.

We are both up to our

necks with the same sh*t.

I pretend not to see anything

of your dodgy dealings...

I'm only trying to help you.

You can't trust a Turk.

Why? You're afraid

I might get fooled?

Don't worry,

I have taken my measures.

- Which way are you going?

- This way.

Good. I go the other way.

Fish, again? In the end,

we will grow scales.

We live in an island.

What do you want us to eat?

The island has a butcher shop.

Eat fish!

You are not in charge

of my life.

Can we eat in peace

for once?

Your dad is right.

Fish is the best nutrition.

Spoiled child!

Stop it!

Eat some. It's fresh.

Thomas, just caught it.

Well done, Thomas!

He always gives us the best.

And he's the only one

who doesn't ask for favors.

Don't get too excited.

He's got his motives.

He's preparing his son

to be your son in law.

What did you say?

Why, woman?

Stratos is a fine young boy.

We are not giving our girl

to the son of a fisherman!

- Tell him, mom!

- I like him.

Then, you marry him.

I will slap you so hard,

you will see stars!

Why are we talking about this?

Has Stratos

ever told you anything?

He wouldn't dare.

Wherever I go,

he's always there.

- He follows me all the time.

- Cut him out.

Don't worry.

He took his lesson.

But he doesn't seem to

understand and leave me alone.

The last thing we want is to

have a fisherman as an in-law.

My daughter

has better things to do.

She hears such things

and she thinks she is special.

I wonder why!

Hello, Eva.

Hi, chief.

Why such formality?

For you, just Babis.

- How are things going?

- So and so.

When the summer season

takes off, it will be better.

You wanted something?

I was on my way to the cafeterias

and I just wanted to say hi.

And to see

if you need anything.

No, thanks a lot.

A beautiful woman like you...

always needs the protection

of a powerful man.

I don't agree.
