- It's just water.

- I don't give a damn about the bottle.

Do you understand what I tell you?

What?

Is Toni here?

I have to return him something.

He's having his shower, he will end soon.

- Do you want to come in?

- No.

Sure?

- Do you want one?

- No thanks.

Actually I want one.

Thanks.

Here!

You'll give this to him and you'll tell him

I'll pay everything soon.

He pisses me off for a pair of tights

and he lends money to just anyone.

- Don't sulk!

- Me? I don't.

- Do you want a beer?

- Yes, I do.

There are too many people at the bar,

I will go later.

- Do you want a beer?

- Yep.

Stop it!

Excuse-me.

Don't worry if you are not

perfectly straight.

You have to be quick

to isolate the leak.

- I do what I can.

- Faster, faster!

What's going on? It's OK?

You have to do it faster

without rushing.

Let me do it! Do you hear me?

- Give me two seconds.

- Keep a cool head!

- You can give me 5 minutes?

- I go down.

Ok, go down, go down!

Are you fine?

I would have not gone down

if he let me finish.

- It's my fault if you break down!

- Calm down!

It can happen to anybody,

it does not matter, Gary.

- It's not the fault of anybody but

of everybody. - It's not my fault.

Gary? I put you a condom?

It's totally crazy!

- This one is a fake!

- No, it's a real one.

- It doesn't move.

- It's a real one!

- Are you sure?

- Ok you're right.

Have you ever seen living handbags?

What? Don't piss me off!

- Come, it'll take your mind off things!

- I want to replace him.

She plays with us!

When I'm at the bottom of the room,

I'll stamp.

Once, give me some slack

Twice, give me more air.

It's OK?

- What happened?

- Give him more air!

- I have been radiated

- You shouldn't take off your gloves!

Spread your fingers. Turn your hand.

It's good, you were courageous.

Well done, Manda.

Turn the sound down, please.

I thought you wouldn't come.

I've heard you play the hero.

- Is it a lot?

- You were much irradiated.

You know what happens in this case?

You stay in the green area and you stop diving.

- I want to stay on this site. - I don't

take any decision. No diving anymore.

- If I am more irradiated, what happens?

- You are out.

- I'm out, what do you mean?

- Either technical unemployment.

With your low length of service, you won't

earn much but you take care of your health.

Or you are sent to another site.

- For us you are in remission.

- OK.

If your rate is too high on your dosimeter,

you have to quit for this work period.

And if I want to stay?

Do you sleep well at the moment?

It's fine.

- Any problem to breath?

- No.

Any abdominal pains?

- I think I'm pregnant.

- You think or you're sure?
