BLIND DATE:

A year later...

I'd go in if I were you.

- Here you go.

- Thanks.

They really suit you.

I'll take it!

- Hello.

- Hi.

That's Karolina, my blessing

and soon, my wife.

Can one have two wifes in Poland?

I'm getting divorced next week.

"Paris is worth a Mass".

Your wife didn't commit suicide?

She's so... fragile.

She's a fake.

She faked her visits to the analyst,

she faked her suicidal thoughts...

Hi.

Czarek, please pay and let's go.

You're developing.

Taking new lessons, are we?

Do you know Czech?

We understand each other without words.

I'm sorry, but I've changed my mind.

Majka...

I wish you all the best, and by the way...

you look beautiful.

Good luck. Bye.

Darling, lets go.

You know that after shopping

I need to have sex.

Sex, of course...

Why did you stick with him

in the first place.

One year of studies down the drain,

two years of tears...

But the bouquets of flowers he gave you

were impressive, I must admit.

Forget-me-nots with white feathers...

The one with all green flowers

was my favorite.

Stop it.

Kuba! Majka!

End your therapy session.

We have a full house!

We're coming!

This one has a concussion.

I'm taking him to the hospital.

I knew it would finish this way

once the penalty was given.

At least now we know that Arsenal fans

are better in Marshall-Arts.

Nutcakes.

Well then, sleep well.

It's going to be a short one.

I've got an exam at 10 am.

Some people have all the luck.

- Hi, Majka.

- Hi.

- Need a lift?

- No thanks.

- Jump in, I'll walk home.

- No, really. Thanks.

- See you later boys.

- Take care.

Evenings spent with British

football fans are not a waste of time.

- Can you hear that?

- Aha.

Especially when the title

of your dissertation is:

"Analysis of the colloquial language

of British citizens".

"Analysis of great

agglomerations in England".

Whatever.

She really does sing well.

Yes, but I wonder

if the neighbors think the same.

Thank you.

Dinner is served.

Hi girls. What a lovely smell.

She has a nose like a police hound.

It leads her home

exactly at the right moment.

Next time I won't even let her

look at the food.

Just because she did her nails

two hours earlier does not mean

she can't wash the dishes.

When she does finally hook a male,

she won't see the end of washing dishes.

I told him,

that I do the dishes

not earlier than on the fifth date.

And I don't clean the sink

before the wedding.

But you jump into bed on the first one.

She's going to have a great career.

Hello?

I've prepared dinner

and you're the only guest.

I've lit the candles.

I'm sorry, but I just ate.

Put the candles out.

We'll use them another time.

Well, that's that.

I love you anyway.

I love you too. Bye.

You know what?

You're behaving like a piglet.

Piglet? Rather like a common pig!

A new guy and we're not informed?

Idiots. That was Kuba on the phone.

Am I right?

No way.

A candle-lit dinner with a gay?

That's a first.

Hi.

You're completely f***ed-up.

You should have taken the flat

your grandmother left.

What do I need such a large flat for?

So that first some chick nestles down,

and then twins on my head

You could sell it

and get yourself a smaller one.

With a small wardrobe.

This prevents chicks from settling down.

The best way to avoid that

is to have a lousy bathroom.

The most important thing?

A faulty gas boiler.

The lady wants to wash

and experiences a shock: Cold water!

I apologize, order a taxi,

and sleep alone

in my own bed.

Bring me some nuts, crisps or...

Take it easy,

our friend is celebrating his

inheritance after his grandmother.

- Another round for everyone, okay?

- Of course, coming right up.

Kuba...

- Thanks, Kuba!

- You're welcome.

If only granny knew...

- She wouldn't have kicked the bucket.

- My defender.

- Kuba, 8 more beers...

- No, no...

No, enough is enough.

I've had enough,

you've had enough, please.

- Are you saying I'm drunk?

- Let me put it this way,

we didn't fart around.

Have you got a phone?

If only someone could tell me

where I live...

I'll tell you

and I'll even make you breakfast.

I've suddenly remembered.

I'll manage.

You're saying I'm drunk?

As a lord.

I'll stay with these nuts

and you go home.

Olympics?

That much I do after 10 beers.

Show us something more.

- Surprise us.

- Clear the table.

That's right, and now I will walk

on my hands till the end of the table.

- Yeah, right...

- A small bet?

- Sure.

- What's the bet?

The bet is...

It'll be a surprise.

A surprise bet.

Here we go.

Bye.

Hey, hey!

I am the victor!

Karol? You're all f***ed-up.

Gentlemen, we're closing.

Happy Birthday...

One should not suppress

negative emotions,

and this will certainly

allow you to get rid of them,

and get back at

the son-of-a-b*tch at the same time.

Thank you.

It's fantastic!

Go on, say goodbye to your stresses!

- Go straight for the heart.

- Heart?

Darling, you said

you were better than my friends?

That's true, my darling.

So what's the problem?

Don't I turn you on?

You're the most wonderful woman

I have ever met.

Just like in those voodoo movies!

Do it again! One more time!

I'm sorry.

I don't know what's happening.

I don't think

I'm going to make it tonight.

And what about last night?

And the night before?

Go back to your wife.

Go on! Unwrap him!

Don't be shy, unwrap him!

Many happy returns.

- Have a nice evening. Good night.

- What do you mean "good night"?

A ticket to Madonna's concert.

And this is my present.

The girls were right.

Guys over 50 are good for nothing.

There's no point in wasting time

on impotents.

Get lost!

But this is my house.

You will be happy if you go there.

Great fortune and love awaits you.

There you will meet someone,

with whom you will fall in love,

and he will fall in love with you, and

- you will live happily ever after.

- Majka, don't listen to such crap.

Please don't disturb me

when I'm working.

You will get married,

and you will be very happy.

But along the way

you will have to face many obstacles.

The cards say

that this is how it will be,

and cards never lie, never lie.

- But where am I supposed to go?

- Majka...

- Don't interrupt.

- Thank you for your support.

- Maybe a small...

- Thank you. I don't drink at work.

The cards are very precise:

The corner of Mickiewicza and Miodowa.

On Friday,

May the 14th,

from 10 am

till 7 pm.

Tell me what I'm supposed to wear.

According to the gypsy tomorrow

I'm going to meet the love of my life.

Straight jeans,

golden sandals,

and a t-shirt in flowers.

Your a darling.

I can always count on you.

Majka!

I'm sorry.

The dress and shoes are at your home.

A present from me.

I hope you like it.

Thanks.

The man of your life will be thrilled.

Get ready for the barbarian invasion.

I'm opening the gates.

Do we have to wait much longer?

I'm talking to you.
