Don't tell me about rules

when you don't observe them yourselves.

You raise the interest rate as you wish.

No preliminary notice.

The bank has the right to raise

the interest rate, check out your contract.

You should check out your brochure-

it says it's a fixed rate.

I'm sorry but you have signed a contract

which says otherwise.

I bear no responsibility

for the promotional materials.

But you bear responsibility

for having given misleading information.

What is more,

your notorious contract says

that you're obliged to notify us

when you raise the interest rate.

Nobody from your bank did.

So I can sue you for failing

to observe the agreement.

I want to settle things like normal people.

Which means you stop

the procedure and I'm not...

Look!

You can file a complaint or sue the bank.

I can do no more for you right now.

You can.

You can f*** yourself!

Have a nice day.

Nade?

Nade, open the door.

Nade, stop this bullshit.

Is the boss here?

I have to speak to him immediately.

- He's busy now.

- I'll wait.

- The meeting will be long.

- No problem, I have time.

He has business meetings all day.

- Come tomorrow.

- No, no!

He can spare five minutes for me.

- Do you want water?

- No.

Any coffee?

- Any coffee?

- No.

Okay, then, we have a deal.

Nadentze!

Kshishtov, Nadya...

...Kshishtov.

Come on... until Tuesday.

You're fortunate!

- Really!

- Yes.

Yes, everything's OK.

Cheers!

- The money's been transferred?

- Cheers!

It will be transferred on Tuesday

and you have it on Wednesday.

- You mean Tuesday next week?

- Yes.

No, I need the money by tomorrow.

Look, Nade,

I can't arrange it before Tuesday.

I can't leave this place

without the money.

Do you understand?

You know what?

We'll do the following.

You take a loan for one week.

You pay it back to the bank on Tuesday,

and we'll send you the money,

you return the loan and everything's fine.

Why don't you get a loan instead

and give me what you owe me?

- I can try.

- Then try it.

By tomorrow?

Why don't you call your father?

He has money.

Just call him.

If you want, I can call him?

No, no, no way.

- What's wrong? I'll call him.

- No, I'll call him.

- We'll explain the situation to him.

- No! I'm the one who'll call him.

Fine.

Can I count on that?

On Tuesday I'm getting my money.

Tuesday! Absolutely!

- So I can count on you?

- Yes!

Fine.

Good afternoon.

Is my father at home?

Yes, he is.

Thank you.

Tachi, look who's come to see us!

Nade!

Why didn't you call

to say you were coming?

- Is it inconvenient?

- No, it isn't.

It's fine but we haven't prepared.

Hold on a minute.

Hello, hold on a minute.
