Seriously?

Yeah.

You're not joking?

No.

No one does that in Romania.

Of course they do.

Look at me.

It must be horrible.

- For the fisherman?

- No, for the fish.

Swallowing a hook

and suffocating on it...

They don't feel any pain.

What do you mean?

If they do, it isn't much.

They don't really feel the...

It's more complicated.

But even if they suffocate,

they live, right?

They survive?

Bingo!

You got it!

You're really something.

I'm serious!

I've never seen a guy...

Do what?

Throw a fish back in the water.

I'm a math teacher.

I was until yesterday.

I quit.

Why?

I refused to pass some students

against the principal's wishes.

Or something like that.

And now?

- No idea.

- Don't worry, it'll be fine.

Be kind to others,

and they'll be kind to you.

It's more about having the freedom

to do my job properly.

Freedom?

Tell me who's free.

I mean, really!

Here's the way it is.

I don't like to make

the professional compromises

society expects of me.

So I refused, that's why I quit.

And that's why I'm here

trying to relax.

Do you work for money?

Yeah, why?

If you work for money,

you have to do what you're told.

I disagree.

But that's the way it is.

Tell me, do you work for money?

I do.

And I do what I'm told.

That's all there's to it!

That's not the point.

I like what I do.

Maybe I like what I do.

Then again, liking what you do

doesn't really exist.

Why?

Because people don't like to do anything.

They don't like to work.

They just want to sit around all day

and do nothing.

When they get on a bus,

for even 5 minutes,

they sit right down.

They won't even stand

for five minutes.

They make others make room for them.

What people really like to do is sleep!

Lounge in bed all day long.

They could spend

their whole life in bed!

And when they can't stay in bed,

what do they do?

They sit down

and nod off.

Like you do in your office, I bet!

No chairs here!

And look...

We plopped right down on

our asses!

You saw that on TV, too?

Don't make fun of me.

I'm right, aren't I?

If you say so.

Are you mad?

I just think we're all lazy...

It's true.

You want to have kids?

I think so.

It's great to have kids.

You want kids?

Yes. Well, no.

Yes and no.

I'd like to have kids,

but I want them to have a father.

It'd be better.

I know why you two

are having problems.

Problems?

Never mind.

Go ahead, say it.

Forget it.

Come on, tell me.

Forget it.

Got a cig?

- Tell me.

- Really, forget it.

Give me a cig!

Give me a cig I'll tell you.

I love 'em.

Can I take two?

So?

Give me a light first.

If you tell me...

Come on, give me a light.

I'm not saying.

It's annoying to make a promise
