Yes, when I'm finished.

This is my seat.

Give it to me.

- What a horrible person.

- No manners.

May I introduce myself?

Van Schaveren.

- You're late.

- I got stuck in traffic.

It's a mess, isn't it?

- Would you like something?

- Campari.

Oh, you speak ltalian.

- No, but I could take a course.

- A course...

May we have a Campari,

a coffee and a creme carr.

Creme carr.

To a happy ending.

Cheers.

That was fast.

Does it bother you?

Are you the lady

I have an appointment with?

No, it was my girlfriend but she

couldn't wait any longer.

So I'm here in her place.

- But you're not at all my type.

- Nor you mine.

In addition, madam,

I find you highly vulgar.

Yes, an extremely vulgar individual.

- Vulgar?

- Yes, very vulgar.

I'll show you 'vulgar'.

- You think that's funny?

- Yes.

You're no lady either.

-Good riddance.

-Yes, but look at my dress.

That guy.

Sir... Sir...

My friend has a stain.

Here's a lady with a nice stain.

Pay close attention now.

A few drops, a clean cloth...

- Would you rather do it?

- No need to be shy.

- My dress...

- Has it ever been dyed?

Never. I just bought it.

I'm so sorry.

I'll see that you get a new one.

May I have your address,

and your size?

It's under our warranty.

Hey, sir.

Leave me alone.

- I'm sorry, I thought...

- What are you doing here?

I've got your friend's new dress

but I can't find her house.

- To the canal, then left.

- I was afraid she lived here.

- I thought...

- My friend? No, she's a proper lady.

Don't those women

ever bother you?

Never. You just have to treat

them properly.

So it's back, then left.

Thanks a lot.

We'll give you a special price.

- In a hurry?

- You're not?

Staying the night?

- Want a drink?

- Have any coffee?

Not a drink?

Later. Let's take it nice

and easy. Coffee.

Coffee.

You're terrific.

How do you do that six times a day?

Last time with you

was the first in months.

- Sure...

- Really.

Clients are clients.

It's just in and out.

It's been years since

I've felt like this.

And this?

That's nothing.

It's been over for years.

I bring home the bread.

- Have you been married long?

- Since July 29, 1960.

- You keep track.

- It's engraved here.

- Do you have any tea bags?

- Sure.

- How are things with you and Sjaak?

- Don't ask.

- Are you all right?

- Why do you ask?

It's noon

and you're all dressed up.

Not everyone likes a woman

to look like a slut.

It's for Sjaak.

You should paste him behind

the wallpaper and move.

Come on up, darling.

Lunch is ready.

Hello, Sjaakie. Look what I've

made for you, Sjaakie.

Enjoy it, Sjaakie.

Sjaak's back.

There'll be trouble.

- I thought he was upstairs.
