- Take it easy!
That's someone
who likes to torment people.
- And that's what I do, you mean?
- Well...
How should I put it?
Serving non-alcoholic beer with food
that smells so good.
It's torture.
I only want what's best for you.
Best!
Is this what's best for me,
enduring this damned existence...
...with all the shit and deceit...
...and wickedness...
...and stay sober?
How can you expect,
or even want...
a single poor bugger...
...to put up with it...
...without being drunk?
It's inhuman.
It's torture.
- Only a sadist would demand such a thing.
- Hey, take it easy. Take it easy.
You're kind, Karin.
I'm not angry with you.
You know that.
It's always nice to be here.
When are you getting married?
Get married?
What good would that do?
That wouldn't help anything.
Dinner will be ready soon.
That'll be great.
Oh, so nice.
I got a letter from the bank today.
It wasn't a very nice letter,
I can tell.
Oh! So nice.
I've been saving up for my
retirement.
For more than 16 years.
They advised me
to put my savings in funds.
So I did.
All my earnings from playing at
funerals
and in the military band
was invested in two different funds.
The bank thought it was a good idea.
If one fund did poorly,
the other could do well, they said.
I found out today,
neither of them did good.
Quite the opposite.
My retirement savings have gone
down by 34 percent, I was told.
Quite disheartening news,
I tell you.
Oh! So nice.
The bank agreed.
They said it was unfortunate.
They said I'd had bad luck.
Things like this happen, they said.
You simply have bad luck sometimes.
I've played 39 times in
the military band so far this year
and played at 48 funerals.
All the money went
to my retirement funds.
I have been able to live
off other gigs.
And now I find out that my pension
is going to be a lot smaller.
All the money has just
gone down the drain.
It's a tradegy indeed.
And this is what is going to happen.
I've worked it out...
...I'm eventually going to have to
sell my car.
It's really quite depressing.
- It's a nice day today.
- What?
- I said, it's a nice day today.
- It might be.
- Sorry?
- I said it might be.
And how would we like our hair cut?
The same, somewhat shorter, nothing
different. Just tidy it up a bit.
I'm in a hurry.
I have to go to a meeting.
I see. Do you want a part?
The way it is, I said.
Do I have a part now?
Not exactly, but your hair does fall
somewhat towards the left.
To the left?
- Yes.
- It falls to the right, dammit.
- It does when you look at it from here.
- You are not the one getting a hair cut.
Maybe it's hard, when you are used to
reading and writing backwards.
- Backwards?
- Yes.
From right to left, the way you do
down there in the desert.
Arabic is written from the right, but it
doesn't mean we write backwards, dammit.
If a car drives across a street
from the right.
That doesn't mean
it's driving backwards, does it?
Will you just shut up and cut?
Sorry about the part...
but sometimes
something new can cheer you up.
If that's what I wanted
I'd have asked for that.
Do I look tired or something?
What the hell do you mean?
- No, not exactly.
- Well in that case, get going and cut.
Bend your head forwards a bit.
What the hell?
That's him.
He's the one who did it.
He's the one who did it.
Do you realize what you've done?
I'm going to a bloody important meeting.
You've ruined everything,
you stupid idiot.
I'm going to sue you.
I'll get the shirt off your back.
Hundreds of thousands.
Get it?
Take it easy, damn it, take it easy.
Take it easy?
- What do you mean?
- Well, I was in a bad mood.
I know, it happens sometimes and
I had a fight with my wife, too.
What kind of a stupid excuse is that?
You goddamed...
...bastard.
Take it easy, dammit.
I'll fix it, for free.
Fix it? You have ruined
a bloody important meeting for me.
It'll cost you the shirt off your back.
Get it? I'll make sure
