associating with them at work
and I've been having an opportunity
of observing them closely for a while.
With some of them
we were even starting up together.
And they haven't achieved
anything, absolutely nothing.
Because they haven't grasped
something, they got confused.
Oh, kids, kids,
you're still so naive,
you don't know anything about life.
But there're simple
and crude things in life,
such as, say,
a wage, an apartment.
I understand, you probably feel
embarassed to talk about that,
it seems too prosaic,
so to speak.
But you can't get away from it,
and you have to reckon with it,
you can believe me.
As for the young lady,
she'll never leave home.
These are just words.
I know her pretty well.
And what kind of a road
are you offering me?
I'm not offering you anything.
This is for you to decide,
so to speak.
You have to decide yourself.
That's how it is, my dear.
Everything's all right. They're
waiting for us. Let's go.
What kind of man is he?
What did he mean - people don't
care a damn about each other?
It can't be so.
It can't be
that he's right.
Where are we going to live?
We can live at my place.
No. How about going
visiting every other one?
What do you mean?
First visit my friends,
then yours,
then mine again,
and so all through the night.
I don't know. Never tried it.
Does it embarass you?
Then we'll go only to mine.
It's nice visiting.
Let's have a night of fun
to spite everybody.
You know, I got
so much to tell you.
You don't have to tell me anything.
It's strange that we didn't know each
other and even might have never met.
One doesn't place an ad in a paper -
"Looking for a good man".
Though, why not?
I'll open up a paper in the morning
and call you.
I'll say, "Hello.
You've been waiting for me?"
And I'll reply:
Where have you been for so long?"
And where have you been?
Doesn't matter. What matters
is that we've found each other.
Do you love me?
And you?
You don't feel sleepy at all?
No.
And you?
A little bit.
I think those guys were bored.
Why have a party then?
Perhaps you're right,
but not having parties is even worse.
Maybe.
- Shall we walk?
- Yes, let's walk.
It feels so good like this.
You and me.
What else do we need?
Right.
I could walk on and on,
as long as we're together.
Well, I'm home.
- Oh, I don't want to go in there.
- Don't go then.
Sounds so simple and wise.
Don't go if you don't want to.
But what can I do? Alas, alas, alas!
Look, let's live at my place.
In a cupboard.
Dad, mom, my wife and I.
There's no dad.
Sorry.
- Well?
- Well what?
We have to decide.
Decide what?
- I don't understand.
- What is it you don't understand?
Go, you need
at least some sleep.
Not a chance,
I must be at work by 8.
And I'm not going to the Institute
today. Will you call me?
I will.
Come on, what's the matter?
What is it?
I don't understand,
why make irresponsible statements,
leave home in the evening
with big declarations,
only to return there at dawn
and say "good morning".
Sometimes the circumstances
are above us.
Or below, what difference
does it make? They're important.
What did you need that show for?
Can't you take
responsibility for your actions?
- You don't like it?
- No, I don't.
I believe it should be either this or
that. Otherwise one shouldn't blab.
What do you want from me?
Single-mindedness,
consistency of thoughts and
actions, inner harmony?
But I'm not a harmonious person.
I know, only
ancient Greeks were harmonious.
But since it's difficult to verify,
let's leave the Greeks alone.
With great pleasure.
I can't talk about serious
things at such an early hour.
Good night.
Good morning.
As for the circumstances,
what's important to me
is you, and that's all.
And now come here.
- This is Zhuravlyov.
- Hello.
The boiler engineer.
These comrades are from Ghana.
Show them the instruments.
We work here.
- Here?
- Yes.
- This is the dashboard.
