Obviously, you forgot.

What?

Today's my birthday.

I'm such an idiot.

I wish you the best.

Thanks.

And get rid of that clown.

What clown?

What are you talking about?

Christo...

Are you listening to me?

I'm talking about me.

You need someone better.

I reserved a table for dinner

and I want to enjoy the evening.

Not fight with you, for once.

OK.

Good evening. Are you ready to order?

Beer.

- What kind?

- Bulgarian

We don't have Bulgarian.

- You got Swedish?

- Yes, we do.

A Swedish beer?

Any kind.

What about you?

Don't you want to eat something?

I can't read the menu. It's in English.

And bread!

Is it good?

There's no salt.

Itso, people go to restaurants

to eat and to talk.

Clearly, we've run out of things to say.

What?

Talk.

What is wrong with you?

What are you missing?

Salt.

And pepper.

Why do we have to have fun?

Because it's my birthday.

Big deal!

One more beer!

Goddammit!

The prices seem ok.

What are you having?

I don't know, maybe a salad.

- Are we having wine?

- I'm not drinking.

I'll have a glass of red wine.

It's nice here.

And the people look ok.

It's a quiet city.

Compared to Istanbul, everywhere is.

'Cause you've never been to China.

Please, don't talk to me about China.

You know the Chinese eat everything.

They even eat Tibetans!

One country conquering another?

Don't be so naive. It suits everyone.

Who is everyone?

The big players.

The States can't do much

without China.

Let's change the subject.

How's your dish?

It's delicious.

I wonder what

the ordinary Chinese thinks of Tibet?

Is it black pepper?

I don't know.

It's delicious.

Let's go.

Hello, Kerem!

It's the answering machine.

Kerem! We're spending the night in Sofia.

Expect us in Berlin by Monday.

Lots of kisses.

You don't need to lose weight, Dad.

Of course not!

Mother, why didn't you wear

the sandals I bought you?

Shut up, b*tch!

Look at these Turks on our streets.

Are you a tough guy?

What're you waiting for?

He's yours.

Fish! Go and watch that corner.

You, go to the other side.

He's fallen asleep.

What's happening here?

Shut the f*** up, a**hole!

Georgi!

Georgi!

Georgi, come on!

Hello!

Could you send an ambulance

to Dondukov Street?

I think it's the second one after Levski.

Isil.

Christo.

You don't recognize me or what?

Hi.

Come on, sit down.

Get me a glass.

Cheers!

Thanks for the fork.

Here you are.

Silence is golden!

Do you have a girlfriend?

Yes, I do.

Several.

And that stupid place you work in...

What do you know about it?

What do I know? I know you earn 300 leva.

Isn't that so?

Or he's on the computer, chatting...

"Home"?

You call this your home?

This is not your home. Is it clear?
