In my line,

it takes years to get ahead.

I'll say!

I heard about

how you got out of Paris.

You're inconspicuous.

That's good.

I need a guard.

Relax.

Itjust shoots tear-gas.

Go wander around outside.

Present perfect.

I have eaten. You have eaten.

He has eaten.

We have eaten. You have eaten.

They have eaten.

Repeat:

Would that I had eaten!

Would that you had eaten...

The verb "to sleep".

Repeat:

Would that I had slept!

Would that you had slept...

The verb "to leave".

Repeat:

Would that I had left!

Would that you had left...

The verb "to please".

Repeat:

Would that I had pleased!

How about a gas mask?

What?

- Someone's watching us.

- Let him.

A big guy. Just standing there.

Where?

Hide me.

What?

Hide me!

Are you happy here?

In the bathroom?

No, in general.

Yes. Why?

You can stay as long

as you like,

but we have to settle things first.

I can pay you.

No.

I'd like you

to do some hair.

Ten heads.

A week.

Five.

Okay. Seven.

Someone was looking for you.

Not too tall. Fortyish.

Sad looking.

Mikolaj?

He brought me back

from Paris.

He was glad to know

you're alive.

No phone number?

No, he just said to say hi.

Then he left.

Hi.

In Gdansk,

we exchange at 30.

In Torun, twice that.

Put it in a bank

and get a loan.

You have to turn here.

It's up the hill.

Only 7%.

But ifwe triple the investment...

That's pretty smart.

Is that clod sleeping?

It's here.

Hartwig and lkea

want to build warehouses.

And these bumpkins

don't know.

No one does.

I'm not breathing a word.

We'll see.

Okay.

Don't sleep!

You'll get robbed.

Can you exchange this?

For dollars?

That's some nest egg.

I work.

A bottle of vodka.

The most expensive.

Wrap it up please.

Hello.

I'm here on business.

Official?

No, I wanted to talk business.

Can I come in?

It must be a good piece of land.

Move in with your son!

I wanted to.

Then do it!

Buy a car, a TV.

What for? I never watch it.

Always the same crap.

Or else...

I could bury the money...

put it in a little jar.

Sure!

That would be nice.

when we close the deal.

I have to go.

What?

It's the last train.

You're wandering around

at night?

You'll get mugged.

They'll steal your briefcase.

Sleep here.

There's a bed upstairs.

It's your bed now.

Hello.

You're alive.

They stole me with the trunk.

Your brother told me.

I was looking for you.

Me too.

Well...

What's up?

In the metro,

you mentioned a guy...

Remember?

Can you get in touch with him?

Yes, I can.

When someone asks for help,

you have to help him. Right?

Except...

he's back in Warsaw.

He doesn't want to anymore?

He does.

More than ever.

So?

He changed his mind?

No.
