I would like to smash your head

and put some kindness inside!

Come in, miss.

You can sleep in the guestroom.

- Is there a guestroom?

I knew I would be the one to go!

Tell me something.

Im talking to you. Are you listening?

Arent you listening?

- Why should I listen to you?

You came imperiously into my house,

you splashed my shirt.

My dog checked.

I cant listen to you.

You can say whatever you want, I cant listen.

- Are you always so rude to women?

Am I rude?

- You get angry, you dont look at me!

Just move a little bit.

Move away from the fire.

- Why? - You are burning.

- Me? - Your dress is burning.

I cant stand smoke.

This is the guestroom.
