- Kralik, I still can't believe it. There's no reason.

- Listen, the boss doesn't have to give you a reason. That's one of the wonderful things about being boss.

- Well, I wanted to get off tonight. I got off alright.

- Kralik, you're not going?

- No, I couldn't face her tonight.

- You see, this morning I had a position, a future. Now...

- See, I'm afraid I sort of exaggerated in my letters. I showed off a little, you know. She's expecting to meet a pretty important man. Well, I'm in no mood to act important tonight.

- We all feel we are losing a splendid fellow worker and we certainly wish you the luck which you so rightfully deserve.

- Now, Kralik, we are going to see each other soon. If you have an evening with nothing to do... you know where we live.

- Alright, Pirovitch. Goodbye.

- Goodbye, Kralik.

- Well, Ilona, I'm going to miss you.
