I didn't dream anything.

It's a pity.

Then I'd better go sit elsewhere.

I prefer eating alone.

May I?

Don't think I consider you a leper too.

- Did they find out who did it?

- No.

Well, I've got a tip.

- Leave me alone.

- Personally, I don't think it's you.

We'll see

what that shrink lady comes up with.

She's a silly goose.

She really messed with my mind.

I'd bang her, though.

Don't you even want to know who I suspect?

- Tell me, I know you want to.

- Well...

I think it's obvious.

That guy Sndor...

I don't think he's got all his marbles.

The way he's all over the women,

and the mating powder and all.

You see? He's a sex maniac.

What do you think?

Isn't it logical?

Yeah, it's a good idea.

Then, we might want to tell the cops, no?

- Could you return my tray?

- You're the one in contact with them...

Well, in my dream, I was a deer again

like every night, for a while now.

Well, and...

There was this doe.

- Where?

- Well, in a forest.

Actually...

It really was kind of a strange place.

Beside a small, round lake.

I've never seen such a small lake before.

I mean, in real life.

How about you?

What nice things did you dream?

This.

- What?

- The same as you.

You're just saying that.

No.

I don't believe you.

That's okay...

I wrote it down.

Sorry.

Well, see you tonight then.

Tell me... Why did you run away?

I looked for you at the lake too.

Are you angry?

Hello, doctor.

You look really pretty today.

Looks like the boss thinks so too.

Excuse me. Just a professional question...

...I said your legs are hairy,

but he said they aren't...

Coffee?

- May I come in just this once?

- No, you may not.

Come on...

You know

that it's against the regulations to...

We'll just have our coffee together

and I'm gone.

Is that all right?

I'd just like to discuss something

with you.

You shouldn't take that guy Sndor

seriously.

Okay.

Men sometimes talk a load of nonsense.

What did he say to you?

Never mind. It's not important.

Here is my phone number.

And I will enter yours.

I don't have one.

I didn't mean to impose.

Anyhow...

I really didn't mean to impose.

That's not how I am.

And what did you say?

That I have no phone.

- So what's it supposed to mean?

- What do you think?

Perhaps he didn't believe me

for some reason.

Very good.

And could you explain why?

Maybe I used the wrong tone of voice.

Or I forgot to make eye contact.

No, I made eye contact, I remember.

His pupils contracted.

Look, these days

everyone has a cell phone.

Maybe that was the reason.

It's strange for me

that you talk to me so formally.

Well, Marika...

You're a real, grownup woman now.

It's strange for me too.
