I don't get anything at all anymore.
I'm glad you understand it.

Honzík, I send you some lard to bread and apples. They aren't wormy.
I wanted to visit you in Prague, but I have nobody to feed hens.
I would like to tidy up and clean your windows.
You probably can't see through them anymore.
I met Mrs. Mrázková. She asked me, if you would get married, so I said "yes".
Why does she care?
Don't send me any money.
I don't need anything. I tell you every time.
I bought you new bed-clothes. I know yours must be tattered.
Come soon. Your mom.
Hello. Excuse me, I am looking for Cat Rental Agency.
Cat Rental Agency? That sounds familiar.
I was here yesterday.
Wait, I will remember. One moment.
- Cat Rental Agency? Do you know it? - No. Cat Rental Agency...
- Is it supposed to be here? - Yes.
Ask that lady there.
- Ask that lady? Thank you. - You're welcome.
Hello. I need to find Cat Rental Agency.
I don't know. I really don't.
It's a pity. What now...
Listen, do you know Cat Rental Agency?
Is this a joke?
It's not a joke, but... come. I will find it somewhere.
- I believe... here... yesterday... - Look, isn't it...
- Excuse me, do you know where Cat Rental Agency is?
- I really don't.
- Do you know where Cat Rental Agency is? - Nepanimaju.
Can you tell me where Cat Rental Agency is?
I have never heard of it.
- You know, I borrowed... - Does she bite?
No, she doesn't. Don't be afraid.
You can ask veterinary here in the street.
No, it was there...
- There was a great veterinary... - No, it was a shop...
If you look in phone book, you can find address and phone number.
Thank you. Bye.
Excuse me, do you know where Cat Rental Agency is?
I don't know, but there is an animal shelter in Vrovice.
No, it was a municipal company, shop...
- One old woman have 15 cats... - No, it isn't...
Mrs. Hamouzová, house number 6, she will advise you.
Thank you.
- What Rental Agency? - Cat.
Cat?
- When were you there? - Yesterday.
I have debt 30 crowns per day for that cat...
and if the Cat Rental Agency wouldn't be found...
I know, it will be found, but it can take some time.
If you could give me a certificate that I wanted to return her...
Somebody must create that agency. And where is it now? Tell me, where it is.
I don't offend anybody, Comrade.
I can't stand someone makes me a fool!
Hello.
Buy cigarettes.
I admit you can find this suspicious.
I would find it by myself, but I really... I...
I really don't know how this could happen.
It just crossed my mind that I could borrow a cat.
I would like to tell you why I did it, but I would have to lie.
I had no reason to do it. I didn't know I had to have a reason.
I know it's my fault. People should have a reason.
Next time I will... I would like to retrieve it.
Whatever happened, I'm a regular person.
- What are you trying to say? - This could never happen somewhere else.
- Where? - I don't know.
How so?
Where else?
- Do you want to say somewhere else is better? - No.
- So what do you want to say? - Nothing.
Do you want to say this could happen, for example, in Brazil?
I don't want to say anything.
There is 53% illiterate people in Brazil.
Aren't you interested in this?
I am, but what shall I do with her, Comrade?
Why did you borrow her, when you claim you never wanted a cat?
Here it is.
You come to bureaus yelling at us, slandering us...
and you don't even think about it's your own fault.

Extension 7, please. You need someone to take care of your cats.
Comrade Kilian, please.
He left.
