Let me in!

What for'?

Let me in!

I've been thinking things over.

One has to learn to make one's own decisions.

I'm staying with my family.

I'm going to try to make my daughter

different from us.

She'll have a different life.

We won't have to explain to her.

Let me in!

Go away!

Why can't you love me'?

I love you and you know it.

You've got nothing to lose, Karrer.

All you're risking is your own skin.

Take a look around.

You visit five rotten bars a day.

You collapse into your bunk at night.

It's time you moved out of here for a while.

What do you say'?

You can't go on drinking cheap brandy endlessly.

All it does is stupefy you.

It destroys your brain and puffs up your liver.

I knew an old bum Whose hands were so shaky

he wrapped a scarf round his wrist to get his glass up to his mouth.

He didn't stay here long.

I've never been abroad. A change would do me good.

You go to the given address,

pick up the package and bring it here.

You get 20% as travelling expenses.

Make it more tempting for me.

That's all you get.

It's not the money.

I just don't feel like leaving here.

It's up to you. I wanted to help...

What if...

I know someone

who would collect the package,

mamas.

Plus petrol.

Petrol? You can't even drive.

I'm talking about someone else.

I can't trust just anybody.

Neither can I.

It's finished

It's all over

Over

And there won't be another

It won't be good

Ever again

Never more

Maybe never more

It's like a nightmare

All of it

Maybe

Where is somebody new'?

Where will he come from'? If he comes

Or won't he come

Ever again?

Maybe never more

Take it or leave it This is what you're stuck with

What can you do'?

You lose your words

Yet you cannot go

It's been over for a long time

It's good that utopia exists

Good to know

I Won't be here long

Take it or leave it

Say, honey, why'?

Why must it be over'?

Over now?

And there won't be another

It won't be good

Ever again

Maybe never more

He's got my soul

Things are going his Way

Without him This world is barren

With him Life is full and happy

How could it be over'?

Silly

Never again

Maybe never more

It's over

All over

There's no end

No end now

It can't fade

And it won't fade

Ever again

Never maybe

Maybe never more

Leave my Wife alone!

You're misunderstanding things.

I see. All right.

The next time I find you here,

I'll break your neck.

He's completely insane.

Take my advice,

and don't go looking for trouble.

Go home now and go to bed.

You're not like them anyway.

All they can do is get you into trouble.

That Woman is...

a Witch.

And her husband has had it.

He'll never get away with all that debt he's piled up.

It will happen to anyone who makes a pass at that woman.

That woman's a leech.

She's a bottomless swamp

who swallows you up and sucks you in.

That's the sad end of it all, son.

Button up your coat properly.

You never know in this weather.

The fog gets into the corners, into the lungs.

It settles in your soul.

We'll know what to cling to once this world explodes.

Mouth to mouth, heart to heart, star to star.

But there'll be no shame any more and the veil comes off.

I'm talking about Maya's veil.

That obscures people's minds.

Gorgey was some strategist.

He told Paskievics:

"Look, if you want to kill Hungarians, do it in an internal war.

"All I'm asking is a million.

"For my honour'?

"Who would be witness to that?

"Who would see about it?"

It's true...

I could offer this to someone else but I thought of you.

The trip's only three days.

You pick up the parcel and bring it home.

- How much'? - 20%.

All right.

This way, it's a nice family story.

But it finishes like any other story.

Because stories end badly.

Stories are all stories of disintegration.

The heroes always disintegrate

and they disintegrate the same way.

If they didn't,

it wouldn't be disintegration but revival.

And I'm not talking about revival but disintegration.

Irrevocable disintegration.

So, what's about to happen here

is just one form of ruin among the million that exist.

So if they put you in jail because of your debts,

don't count on temporary ruin.

Because this ruin is always final,

as ruin generally is.

At the same time,

there might just be a Way to stop this ruin.

Mainly with money, and not by playing the hero.

Perhaps a single crack can be covered over...

I like the rain.

I like to Watch the Water run down the window.

It always calms me down.

I don't think about anything, I just Watch the rain.

I'm not attached to anything any more.

I don't depend on anyone.

I am going to leave.

Because nothing is stable here.

I can't trust anyone.

I know that I'm alone. I know it well.

But I can't give up and I Won't give up.

Big city crowds will applaud me. I will be a winner.

I don't let others drag me down.

One must return to beauty.

Rediscover life again.

The joy of great things.

The taste of victory and success.

And that's Where you've failed.

Because you've given up.

You've killed the love and decency in yourself.

You'll come to a bad end.

Because one cannot live without love and decency.

You really might be stronger than me.

You don't know what I can do.

And I can't.

Do you know the Old Testament, young man'?

"Though they blow the trumpet

"and make everything ready,

"no one shall go into battle, for my wrath is upon the whole crowd.

"Outside is the sword, inside are plague and famine.

"Those in the country shall die by the sword,

"those in the city will be devoured by famine and plague.

"All who survive and escape shall go to the mountains,

"moaning like the doves of the valleys,

"each for his own sins.

"Hands shall go limp, knees shall become weak as water.

"Horror shall descend upon them.

"They shall throw their silver into the streets,

"their gold shall be unclean.

"Their silver and gold cannot save them on the day of the Lord's wrath.

"They may not satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs with it,
