What? I will drink.

I will drink if I feel like it.

This is a hospital.

Music isn't allowed here.

Doctor, you've got to make

an end to this.

Imagine what it would be like if

all patients brought an orchestra.

You don't have the right to be so cross.

It's a matter of respect.

What a wonderful life.

Excellent booze. I'm on fire.

Grandson, I've got to tell you something.

You don't have a mother,

your father is no good.

I sold the cement factory.

Up in smoke. I sold it to

that crook, Dadan.

I took the money.

For your future.

If you need money,

go to my friend...

...whom I haven't seen in 25 years.

His name is...

I know. Grga Pitic.

- You know him?

You've told me about your friendship

a thousand times.

A seven feet giant with

hands like shovels.

He's got two rows of teeth.

One gold, the other normal.

Elegant as a vampire.

Music... aggression.

Shoot me.

Here's a flowerpot.

Leave me alone, Apin.

I'll tell you something, old man.

I despise death.

"Louis, I think this is the beginning

of a beautiful friendship. "

Boss, try to taste the difference.

Our whisky is better than the real thing.

Logical. Our technology is better.

Where are you, children?

- We're here, grandpa.

Sit down.

That's enough, children.

You, what have you've been up to?

- You know, I was looking for a wife.

He's been to 28 fairs.

- And did he find a wife?

Answer him, jackass.

There are enough women for fun and

making out, but not to marry.

Why? All your friends are married

and have children.

When I was your age I had

been married four times.

The sister?

Find a girl and get it over with.

Don't get excited. What was number five

like? The one that stole your heart?

Tell me.

My darling.

Only the memory of her was

enough to lighten my heart.

My darling...

That's family.

As soon as you saw her, you knew

she was the one. That's what I want too.

When will that be?

When I'm dead?

Why don't you be a good boy and

marry for him.

Yesterday I had another attack.

I can barely see.

Again?

- Again.

I beg you for the last time:

Find yourself a wife.

Take me to the hospital

to recover.

I'll get out for your marriage.

Bring me a daughter in law.

Ok, grandad.

Kssss, cat.

Black cats are bad luck.

Mincha, brother.

Take care of the passenger train,

I'll take the goods train.

There's the train.

One...

...two, three...

...five...

...six...

...nineteen...

...and twenty.

All's well.

This calls for a celebration.

I was scared shitless to be screwed.

The train is here, as promised.

The money is here too, as promised.

You got what you asked for.

I was anxious when the train

crossed the border.

Is all going ahead of schedule?
