Come on. Lend a hand.

If shes paying,

we can at least give her breakfast.

Yes, that"s right.

Ahoy! You sure slept in.

It's 10 oclock, Did you sleep...

well?

I want to get off now.

I made coffee for you.

Forgive me for sleeping so long.

Please stop the barge,

Stop? L"ll pay the whole trip.

Why? Don"t you like it with us?

No.

I see.

You shouldve thought of that sooner.

I like it here.

I really like it here, in fact.

I wouldnt trade with anybody.

The paint job alone!

Lmagine how much work that was.

I had to scrape it seven times.

Now it looks like ivy.

Almost... like real ivy.

There's ivy like that, really small.

Believe you me.

No one's cabin is as tip top as ours.

Do you live in a mansion?

Strange men don't come into my room.

I thought you were asleep?

Your hat was there. Now you have it.

Oh well... Anyway, you can't stop

the tug line when it"s moving.

You can wait till we"re in Berlin.

You wont drink more than two cups.

No cheese for breakfast.

Cherry jam. Whole fruits, no stones.

Put it back in the corner afterwards,

or Willi will finish it off.

If you dont like my ivy

and my hearts,

then just don't look at them.

You ate all the jam.

What will your friend say?

He wont notice.

Youre so different. I trusted you right away.

- That"s me.

Its my character.

Good-natured, you know?

But the stories I could tell about him!

Really?

Well, um...

I really do like him.

We get along great.

He could have knocked. But he was too excited.

- Why?

We didn"t hear from you all morning.

We thought you"d...

jumped. He wanted to see

if you were still aboard,

He"s like that.

He needs his hat.

He doesn"t care how I walk around.

But otherwise, he"s great.

Please, you...

You dont need to worry about me.

Its not like you think.

So how is it then?

If you dont want to tell me...

But I thought you trusted me.

- Whats that?

- Bridge.

'

The hearts? - No.

- Ivy?

My goodness, no...

The painting. I was...

I want to tell you, but I can"t.

I can't tell anyone,

Maybe youll tell us later.

So this is our Vera.

Just a goose, but still...

Shake hands, Vera.

C"mon. Hake hands.

She did it!

Sure. Getting nice and fat, too.

Want to hold her?

No. She won"t hurt you.

C"mon, give the lady a kiss.

You have to go like this.

She did it!

F course. Vera kisses everybody.

You can take her. She"s tame.

- Can I show him?

- Ure you can.

Maybe hell cheer up then.

Look what she does.

She shakes my hand and kisses me.

Yeah, I taught her. Watch this,

She plays with my pipe. Vera!

What a great goose.

She likes it with us here.

I like your ivy and hearts, too.

And the barge.

Shes like a person.

- She"s just doing it to keep out of the oven.
