Quote context

[...]

- Folks, I have great news for ya. I just talked to the hospital, and Mr. Matuschek is much better.

- Oh! That's wonderful! Well, can we visit him?

- Oh, let's all get together and buy him a nice Christmas present.

- I have a suggestion, let's get him a cute little Christmas tree for his hospital room.

- Well, that's all very nice, but I think the biggest Christmas present we could give him tonight is an empty bare-looking shop with nothing in it except money in the cash register.

- Now, now, come on, folks! Let's make this the biggest Christmas Eve in the history of Matuschek and Company.

- Where's Klara? Klara! Klara! Miss Novak!

- Coming! Coming! Yes, Mr. Kralik, what is it?

- How are you today?

- Fine. Good. Now, we're expecting a terrific business today. And it's going to be tough. But don't overdo it.

- Now, Miss Novak, I wonder if I could ask a little favor of you?

- With pleasure, Mr. Pirovitch.

- I wanted to buy one of those Ochi Tchornya boxes, but Kralik tells me you took the only one that really works.

- That's right. I bought it for my boyfriend.

- Oh! Ah!

- He's coming tonight. We're going to celebrate Christmas Eve.

- Mr. Pirovitch, can you keep a secret?

- On my word of honor.

- Well, when I come back Monday, I might have a ring on my finger. Maybe, you never know.

- What? That's wonderful!
