CZECH TELEVISION PRESENTS

THE PRAGUE MYSTERIES

EPISODE 1

District Inspector Hynek Budik.

The Police President sent for me.

District Inspector, please wait here.

District Inspector, please, come in.

Thank you.

OFFICE OF THE POLICE PRESIDENT

Come in!

There you are!

Come on in.

District Inspector Hynek Budik.

Why the formality, District Inspector.

I think you have some idea of why you're here.

Well...

I have a certain assumption, Mr President.

Your assumption is correct,

you are being promoted from district inspector to chief inspector.

- Congratulations! - Thank you.

- Congratulations! - Thank you, Chief Commissioner.

Thank you, Mr President. I will do my best to...

Chief Commissioner here spoke very highly of you.

So keep it up so that we can be as happy with you

as we have been so far.

- My sincere gratitude. - Well, that's that, then.

Hold on, one more thing.

Oh, yeah, yeah...

You're familiar with this, right?

Of course, Mr President.

That's the new division of the Prague police district.

Inner and Greater Prague.

And what do you think of it, inspector?

I think it's a great idea!

It means we can better focus on our own operations in Inner Prague

and won't be distracted with some trifles in...

Sure, sure, I appreciate your opinion.

Thank you.

But we're not here just for your promotion.

Excuse me...

Arnost!

I'm sorry.

Excuse me, is Arnost somewhere over there?

He is.

Well, bring that tramp over, thank you.

Excuse me. Right!

So, the transition to new Prague police system

has been coming along nicely for a year now,

the gendarmerie in Greater Prague is being replaced by the police...

and our faith in your skills allows us to...

even if you don't know it yet...

put you in charge of Greater Prague!

I... I'm not sure I understand, Mr President.

You must know that we are putting you in charge

of something fresh and new,

as we believe you will manage.

Please take it as acknowledgement of your abilities!

Thank you, Mr President.

There you are.

There!

Where have you been, you tramp?!

Sorry.

Well... good luck!

Thank you.

Chief Commissioner here will explain the rest to you.

Thank you.

Have you gone insane?

It's a stupidville!

And who got Inner Prague? That should have been me!

- I'm a city person! - Shh, come...

This is for you from the Police President.

He understands, but there was no other way.

Come on, be reasonable.

Here!

It's the man who spoke with the Police President before me, right?

Officer Braun.

A legionnaire, served in Russia.

It came from above, promoted him to Chief Inspector just like that.

Strings were pulled.

What about my experience?

Yes, but where did you serve?

- In Pest! - Other places, too!

It's not fair, sir.

Stop it, Hynek! Think!

We're a republic now

and you spent your entire career as a police officer serving the monarchy!

And you haven't?

Besides, this countess of yours...

Let's keep my wife out of this!

After all, the President abolished all titles of nobility!

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that.

But, Hynek, between us,

there was even talk of your departure!

You know...

different times!

Come on, Chief Inspector,

don't be silly!

We really need you for Greater Prague!

Have a drink, have a smoke

and tell me who you'd like by your side.

I wanted Inspector Havlik.

But I don't know if he would agree to Greater Prague.

Havlik the womaniser?

Will his familiarity with all the loose women of Porici help you?

He also knows all the thieves and robbers

and all about the underworld.

Okay. Who else?

You'll get a better office.

To go with a larger district.

Someone to draw plans,

who knows how to make photographs,

take fingerprints...

I don't know.

What will I tell my wife?

Let me show you something.

Come here.

Well, what do you say?

An automobile.

As Chief Inspector, you may use it for departmental purposes.

When necessary, of course.

Who will drive it?

No worries.

The Police Directorate has six chauffeurs,

one always on duty.

You can have anything you need.

But first...

get yourself some better shoes.

Shoes like these are better suited for the High Street...

I know.

CHIEF INSPECTOR

Hand it here, Novacek, it's on the table.

Well!

Hi there, Hynek.

Hello.

Thanks for not letting me down.

Congratulations!

Yeah, what an occasion.

They gave me two.

Don't worry, I'll hang one in your office too.

- Hey, Rudla... - Yeah?

Tell me, honestly.

Won't you mind working with me?

We had the same rank just this morning.

Ah, don't worry about it, Hynek.

I've got enough of my own worries.

I'm not too big on promotions.

And what do you think?

Mud and manure instead of cafes...

Vinohrady, Podoli, Dejvice...

makes no difference, at least we'll get some more fresh air!

You should get some proper boots!

Oh come on, don't you start too.

How do I explain this to Ilona?

And who is this?

Chief Inspector, this is the new guy, Novacek.

I can tell.

Martin Novacek. Police agent.

He'll be good. Went to high school,

but didn't graduate.

Was he in the army at least?

Of course, inspector.

With the cartographers.

Knows how to draw and take photographs.

Can he talk?

It is my honour to be in your service here at department four,

Chief Inspector!

And these boots are for you.

Jesus Christ...

Here you go, sir.

Did they hang him in your office yet?!

Hang who?!

That devil!

What devil?!

Masaryk!

Christ, are you trying to get us in trouble, Ilona?

- I'm getting a headache myself! - You're a wimp!

I would have thrown that Greater Prague back in their faces!

And spat on them!

- Like that! - Come on, I got a promotion!

Chief Inspector is the highest inspector rank.

I got a higher salary and an office at a higher floor!

A higher floor!

They gave my office to some decorated legionnaire,

someone's protege.

Eniko!

And from the office you'll be crossing half the country in that carriage.

I would have thrown that back in their faces too!

And what would we live on?!

We have two daughters, one still in grammar school.

Money is not the problem.

After all, I had a title that really meant something!

I guess that's why they did this to me!

- And gave my Inner Prague to some-- - Whatever!

But you shouldn't have let them!

Shall I get a new one, countess?

Or will that president of theirs cure him?

You're right.

I'm sure they think I'm secretly a monarchist!

You'll stop meeting those noble friends of yours!

No more Saturday matinees in our apartment!

Ilona Budik, Grafin von Czakoly - that's over!

You never spoke of our friends this way!

Come on, Ilona, everything is different now! Czechoslovakia is a republic now!

Everything has changed!

Have you changed too?

Me?!

Why me?

I'm older than you, and I'm no longer a countess.

Maybe it bothers you now.

Please, you can't say that!

I love you!

We survived the war, we'll survive the republic!

A strong beef bouillon.

Here you are.

Just the way I like it.

Just the way you like it.

Don't be so foolish.

Thank you, Eniko.

Amen.

Congratulations, Dad!

Thank you, Julie.

Sisi, why don't you say something to Papa?

He got promoted!

Dear Julie, first of all, don't call me Sisi.

My name's Alzbeta, you know?

Born Erzsebet Berta Maria von Czakoly!

Secondly, Chief Inspector here is not my dad.

My dad was killed by anarchists in Vienna.

And thirdly, promoted or not, cops will be cops,

won't they?

Yes, Julie...

Erzsebet Berta Maria von Czakoly is right.

Cops will only be cops.

Good night!

You've crossed the line!

What's up with her this time?

Sisi?

Must be her boyfriend, they fight and make up all the time.

And you, you'll graduate soon!

Soon? In a year!

Don't you dare!

Julie, give it to me...

What is it? Is there a fire?

I'm on my way!

I'll get it, Eniko.

Thank you, miss!

Good evening.

Who are you looking for?

Inspector...

I mean, I'm looking for Chief Inspector Budik.

Budikova, Julie.

The daughter...

Agent, Martin Novacek.

What is it?

- Hello. - Hello.

What's up?

Some farm-owner, Mrs Milotova, 52 years old,

owned at least 200 cows, mostly for milk.

Drowned in a well in the yard.

What is it to us in the night?!

Hell, we didn't even furnish the office.

We'll check it out in the morning and have her autopsied.

- Good night! - That won't work.

Why not?

Her brother is a Member of Parliament, vice-president of a party group.

Which party?

The Agrarian Party.

Jesus Christ.

They've called him already.

He's in Budapest now, but he'll be here tomorrow.

We need to have something for him, or we'll look stupid.

Chief Commissioner said.

I don't have shoes for it!

Chief Inspector, I took the liberty and brought you a pair.

They're in the car.

Super nice of you, Novacek.

Go on up and bring me my coat and hat.

Let's go.

Pull slowly!

Pull!

You can't stand here.

Out of the way, please.

Out of the way!

Come, gentlemen!

Come on!

Lay her here.

Everybody out of the way. Step aside!

Go!

Novacek, torch!

Thank you, some light here.

Not now, you can't touch her now.

Not now.

Drowned?

Didn't have the time.

Apparently, she broke her neck falling.

It was just a snap.

Still, let's have her brought in for an autopsy.

Novacek, make a sketch.

Measure the well and check the rope.

- Yes. - When's the judge coming?

He's already left.

Didn't want to keep waiting any longer.

Sure.

Says you have his full confidence.

It's all yours then.

My pleasure, gentlemen.

- Good night! - Good bye.

This was floating in there.

Officer, please clear the area, only we will stay here.

Aye, Chief Inspector!

Come on guys, move it!

Move!

This was floating in there, Chief Inspector.

Shall I get the prints?

Of course.

And find out what's the white stuff inside.

See if it is what it's supposed to be.

Yeah, but sadly I'm not a chemist...

Do I look like one?

Sorry.

It's milk, you know that!

We're at a farm, what else could it be?

Let's see what the kid comes up with.

Accident, suicide, murder.

Which would you prefer?

Could've been slippery.

She leaned over, slipped and fell?

Wouldn't be that easy with that large butt of hers.

Come.

Think she jumped?

Why would she?

Had a farm, cows, an MP for a brother.

Geez!

How about like this?

Real funny.

Well, actually, that could work.

That would make it a murder.

Yeah.

And her brother will want the murderer in the morning.

First night as chief inspector!

Can you get any unluckier?

Pavelka!

Yes, Chief Inspector?

- Shine some light here. - Sure.

- Broken glass. - Yes, quite a bit of it.

Chief Inspector, look what I found!

It looks like a part of a birch broom.

Someone did a proper job cleaning around the well and left this there.

Novacek, gather the shards and put them in an envelope

together with that broom, okay?

- Pavelka will help you. - Of course.

- Chief Inspector, may I? - Yeah.

I know a woman here in the inn.

Well!

How about I went there and asked if she knew something about the family?

You want the car?

Yes.

- The chauffeur will give you a lift. - Thanks.

I didn't do a thing, sir!

I didn't see or hear anything, I...

I've nothing to do with this...

Chief Inspector, Magdalena Mackova.

Maid.

Mrs Mackova, sit down.

Come on here.

You've nothing to do with what?

Tell us what happened.

I went to get water...

When?

In the early evening...

before the vesper bell...

And then?

Did you see something?

A hand...

A hand?

A hand... as if waving to me...

from over there...

the other side...

You didn't see her during the day?!

I was standing by the wash tub,

making potatoes for the cattle...

there's always things to do.

What was she like?

She was kind... kind and fair.

Mrs Mackova...

kind and fair?

I don't know anything, I've nothing to do with it!

That's good enough for now.

Go and don't tell anyone anything, okay?

I swear, I won't say a word, swear to God.

Okay.

Lead her out.

She's hiding something.

I think so too, Chief Inspector.

What have we got?

There's the husband of the deceased, Milota.

- Yes. - Her son Zdenek

and two farm hands, Soukup and Hora...

Hora is mute and slightly demented.

And also the milkmaid, Anna Bursikova.

A very pretty girl.

They say she's nice.

All of them are waiting for questioning.

Okay.

By the way, what about the bottle from the well?

Milk. It was milk inside.

Oh, how did you find out?

You and Inspector Havlik said that.

You call that analysis?

Come on, give it some effort...

Police Agent!

THE LIFE OF PARIS

Erotica.

She was, you know...

romantic.

And Mr Milota?

The Holy Bible!

Doesn't look like they had the same interests!

The MP is surely on his way to Prague

and we still have no clue what happened here!

Accident, suicide or murder?

Damn it! What a day!

Novacek, I'll continue with the interrogation and you go looking!

Looking for what? And where?

Everything, everywhere.

Maybe something will catch your eye.

You can have the farm hand help you!

But I told you he was mute.

And besides...

He'll be a good fit for you.

Yes minister, yes!

No, no, I assure you we'll do everything to make sure

the Member is satisfied, yes.

Don't worry, we'll solve his sister's case quickly.

I've got my best men on it, yes.

We've already got a hot lead, yes.

And if I may ask, where exactly is he now?

Past Vienna.

Innkeeper, where's the head cheese?!

Stop yelling, I'll be there in a second.

Long time no see, inspector.

- Yeah... - How are we?

Well, you know.

Come on, Ruda,

we don't have much time, you heard it.

You seem a little down.

You know, a lot of work.

I'll help you out.

I understand it's hard for you,

but you must think something, Mr Milota.

We pulled your wife out of the well a while ago.

Was it an accident, or did someone help her?

Your brother-in-law will be here tomorrow

and I'll have to report something!

Do you know anything?

Look, Mr Milota.

You either speak now,

or we take you with us!

God's punishment.

God's punishment for what?

Sin.

What sin?!

Fornication.

I think she jumped in herself!

Herself?

She used to come here for a shot of rum.

You want some too?

I'm on duty.

And cry.

- Cry? - Oh yeah.

Poor woman.

What a porker she was!

That guy of hers was useless in bed.

Not like you, tiger...

- I'm here on duty. - Yeah...

A coke head and a gambler for a son, an MP for a brother...

she had a grudge against him

over some subsidies he didn't arrange for her.

Plus, she had lazy, stealing workers.

Everyone steals...

Poor woman I tell you, ready to jump!

What about a lover? She had one?

Yeah, they were doing it in this bed here.

- What? - Relax, I changed the sheets.

Why in this one?

How many rooms do you think I have here?

Have you seen him?

But you could hear them all the way downstairs.

Why?

- He yelled at her? - No way.

The ceiling was shaking!

I have to go.

Yeah, me too.

I have an inn full of drunks waiting.

I've also got to go.

What's that there?

Come shine some light here!

Milk bottles?

Here in the barn?

Evening. Dr Sojka. Ministry of the Interior.

I know who you are, doctor. How can I help?

The drowned the farm owner. We just pulled her out of the well.

We don't want to interfere with the investigation just yet, inspector,

but we need you to understand the situation precisely.

I understand.

There is a certain very serious information

regarding the death of the Member's sister.

She may have intended to blackmail him with made-up stories from his youth

in order to obtain certain subsidies for cattle.

However, the Member is an honest man,

and he kicked her out of his office, family or not,

sister or no sister.

And then she was found here in the well.

Yes.

Would you like to see the crime scene?

No, no, that's certainly not necessary.

I'm sure you can imagine the potential for controversy.

The elections are around the corner.

Doctor, I assure you we are doing our best.

We are aware of the severity of the case.

It is absolutely essential that the case be solved by morning,

before the Member returns!

His train has already passed through Breclav!

Listening.

Yes, General.

Yes, General, I understand,

but that is Chief Inspector Budik's case.

Anicka's not doing too bad for a maid.

"Dearest Mother, I can hardly wait for the day

"when me and Ruda stand before the Lord to ask for His blessing.

"I saw a beautiful throw, with a pattern of roses and clouds,

"I think Ruda might like it,

but I am not sure, he can be so harsh sometimes..."

Who is this Ruda?

Fella.

Her boyfriend.

"I hope I'll soon be a married woman and make you a grandmother.

Your devoted daughter, Anicka."

Anika, Anika...

- Anicka. - Anika...

What's in there?

Anika... lows...

Ah, clothes.

...lows...

Let's go.

What a damn mess!

You're holding us here like cattle, but I'll put a stop to that!

I am Ruda Malat, the truck driver.

I deliver milk down to Podoli.

I know attorney Kratochvil,

he's a socialist and he'll take you to court!

Sit down, Mr Malat.

Sit!

And what about this one, Chief Inspector?

I reckon she could make the ceiling shake with this one.

Come with me.

You were doing it in the inn, in the room above the stairs,

on a wide bed with a flower-patterned throw.

But I...

Did you think nobody knew?

The entire ceiling was shaking!

I...

I had to do it.

You think I can lose my job?!

Sometimes, she wanted weird things,

you wouldn't believe.

That's what she was like,

everyone here was afraid of her.

And you got sick of it, right?

A big woman like that gets heavy fast.

Stand up.

There we go.

With a big body like that?

All it took was a little push and she went right in the well, right?

You...

can't prove that,

I didn't do anything.

It was Milota Junior.

He plays cards and snorts that cocaine,

he's got it in his room and doesn't pay a penny for it.

He wanted money from Milotova,

the owner, and she said,

she wouldn't give him a thing.

And they were yelling at each other,

she said she'll disinherit him

and he'll go broke.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

I think I got it, Chief Inspector.

Let me see.

Well, and that's that.

Mr Milota...

this here cocaine is a finger pointing right at you.

I will say no more without an attorney.

Don't joke around!

It's night!

I want an attorney!

You had a fight.

Your mother said she'd disinherit you!

Really?

You couldn't take it and hit her!

Somebody's coming!

Visitors!

Novacek, wait here with Mr Milota.

Bring me the two Milotas and the workers.

Gentlemen, what is it, where are you going?

What is this?!

You're interfering with my investigation!

I'll contact the Chief Commissioner right away.

Chief Inspector Braun, Chief Inspector.

We've met this morning outside the Police President's office.

Don't worry, Chief Inspector, I know who you are!

But this is my district now that you took my Inner Prague,

this is my periphery! Here you have no right--

He does...

by order of the Police President.

There is no doubt

your investigation is entirely professional, Chief Inspector.

However, the possibility of our MP being compromised

is also a political matter.

So Chief Inspector Braun here has been appointed to assist you.

Got a smoke?

I don't smoke.

You should...

What are we gonna do?

Wait.

Got a girl?

You should.

I know you're doing a good job, Hynek.

But there was nothing I could do,

it came from above.

You know he's their man.

The secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture called me.

This goes far up high,

and you, with your history and your family...

You know.

I do, Chief Commissioner.

It's a damn situation, we both know it.

And what is this now?!

You can't do that!

Stop!

You can't take my witnesses away!

You haven't interviewed them yet?

You've been here for quite a while.

You're not serious, right?

Mr Hora can't tell you a thing! He's mute!

Richtig!

Hora stays with them.

Hora!

Hold on, we're not done with these two yet!

Of course,

they are important to establish the possible motive.

I want them here!

Alright.

We'll take them later.

Let's go!

Goodbye, inspector.

Best of luck.

My people are staying here.

They have their tasks.

Let's go!

See, you'll make it work somehow.

I'll be leaving too. Goodbye!

They're inside.

That was close.

Thanks.

She won't say a word!

Not without an attorney!

Take him away!

You've no right to treat my fiancée like that!

For Christ's sake, need I say it again?!

Just you wait pigs,

World Revolution will take care of you!

- Where did you take him? - Just out on the yard.

So he wouldn't disturb us.

It's standard procedure.

Come on, Anicka, no need to be worried.

We don't bite!

So you say didn't see Mrs Milotova all day long.

Yes, sir.

How is that possible?!

I don't know sir, I was by the cows.

But you were by the well!

- I was not, inspector. - So you weren't.

You didn't need water all day long?!

I had some in a barrel in the barn.

For all those cows?

So she hasn't been to the well all day long.

No! I haven't!

Yeah, didn't even pass by it.

Enough water in a barrel for all those cows.

Just so we're clear...

so you have seriously not been by the well today,

yesterday I mean?

No!

Damn it, I'm telling you, I haven't! Are you deaf?!

I was not in that stupid yard...

and I'm not telling you anything else!

Come on, Anicka. Calm down, rest a little.

It's been too much for all of us today.

Officer, please lead her out.

Go on, miss.

My shoes are ruined.

You should've pushed her more.

Yes, but...

she would've resisted.

She'll spill either way.

But this is not about any blackmail!

It's a case of an angel turned devil.

Did you see her eyes?!

Boy I sure did.

I'd sure like a gal like her in bed.

Come on...

Older, of course... obviously.

One never knows with you.

Excuse me, Chief Inspector, but...

I think he wants to speak with you.

Well, speak, I mean I think he wants to show you something!

What is it, Hora? What do you want to show us?

Novacek...

Look, it's that birch broom!

And a dustpan!

What?

There in the corner, Novacek.

That looks like the same glass we found outside.

Should I dust it for fingerprints?

You see, you can be quite sharp when you try.

Get on with it.

Good job, Novacek.

Novacek, sketch and secure the place.

I'll get the briefcase, Chief Inspector.

Wait!

Whose is it?

What did you want to tell us?

Why did you show us?

Is it because I didn't let them take you away?

That's the broom I found.

I'll keep it.

Come in.

What are you doing here?

...ilk... ilk...

Milk...

So here you pour the milk in the cans

and this is the car they use to deliver it to Prague.

...ar... car... ilk...

Yes.

And this is for...?

Stay here and keep watch.

Darn it, we had no idea, Chief Inspector.

We just pried it open and all this fell out.

Milk bottles in the wardrobe.

Would you look at that.

There are some back here as well.

Gentlemen, do you mind if we take a few of those bottles?

Sure, Chief Inspector.

If only they were full, right? But not of milk, right?

Got it.

That milkmaid Bursikova's fiancé, Malat or whatever his name was.

He said he delivers milk to Podoli.

Go there right now and find out who he delivers it to.

Now?

You know what time it is?

The MP must be on his way to Prague now.

I'll assume you know what to ask.

Sure.

Aye, sir.

Pavelka!

Pavelka!

Chief Inspector, Anna Bursikova.

Anicka, please explain again how it all works.

So you filter the milk here...

Cool it down...

So you cool it down here, pour it in the cans

and have it delivered to Prague by car.

These cans are full of fresh milk from this evening.

And you only use cans, right? Just the cans.

I've already told you.

Forgive my ignorance, I'm a city man.

What is this here for,

if you're pouring the milk in cans?

Sorry, I must have forgotten to put it away.

Wouldn't that be better suited for pouring milk into bottles?

No, we don't use any bottles here.

You don't?

That's enough for me, thank you.

Anicka, tell me.

What was the owner like?

I heard she was honest.

So I guess she hated stealing, right?

Could she fire somebody over that?

Don't tell him a thing! It's a trap!

Back off, Malat!

What trap is Mr Malat speaking of?

After all, you haven't seen the owner all day long

and you haven't been to the well.

Isn't that right, Anicka?

Or maybe you forgot?

That's normal, it's easy to forget.

Some evenings I don't even remember what I had for lunch.

Is it possible that maybe you did go to the well for just a while?

Just for some water, that's it!

Well, maybe... maybe...

I think I forgot, there was so much going on today.

But Mrs Milotova died this morning.

You would have hit her body with the bucket!

No, there was no body!

I told you to keep quiet, you ninny!

Enough!

- What's going on? - No worries.

Come on in.

Mr Kovarik, milkman from Podoli.

Good evening.

Do you know him, Mr Kovarik?

This guy?!

Of course I do!

He's a crook and a scoundrel...

- How dare you... - Unfair competition!

Inspector, please!

Yes?

if I ever see you in there again, you...

Calm down!

Okay, will do.

Well I'm interested, Mr Kovarik! Continue!

He's supposed to deliver milk in cans,

but he's secretly selling milk in bottles, for his own profit!

Liar!

I would've told on him long ago, but he's a Bolshevik bastard!

Keeps threatening us with a revolution,

saying he'll set it on fire here!

- Enough, calm down. - Sit down, Mr Kovarik, sit down!

So, Anicka.

Milk in bottles.

Could you please explain where you think your fiancé

gets this milk in bottles?

Don't say a word!

He's got no proof!

Novacek!

Tell us what we got?!

We have bristles from a broom that was used

to sweep broken glasses from around the well.

We have fingerprints from the glass.

We also have a fingerprint from the dustpan handle.

We have fingerprints from the bottles we found here in Anna's wardrobe here.

At this point,

we can say they're all the same.

We just don't know who they belong to.

For now!

For now!

But once we do, we'll catch the thief.

Stop staring at me!

I'm no thief! I'm getting married!

Shut up stupid, they can't prove shit!

Maybe we can, maybe not.

Anna, you were standing somewhere here...

and she stood where I'm standing now!

I wasn't here!

She said she would tell the police you were stealing milk.

- No. - You had to stop her!

You're getting married in a few days!

- What would people say?! - That's not true!

You had a fight! A few glasses broke, one fell in the well!

Pay attention now, Anicka!

She was standing here like this!

And you pushed her like this!

That's the only way you can push a 100-kilo woman down the well!

And then you swept up the glass.

All right, I was here, but I did nothing!

- She fell down there herself! - Shut up, stupid!

They can't prove a thing!

Dr Kratochvil will get you out of this, he's a comrade.

Lenin himself couldn't get you out of this!

You can either testify right here and now

that she pushed her down the well

and only be an accessory to theft.

Or not, and I'll prove you were an accessory to murder too!

So what's it gonna be, revolutionary?

World Revolution will take care of you, damn pig!

That's nothing compared to

how the prosecutor will take care of you!

Take them away, both!

Handcuff him.

Hands!

She pushed her, she told me as soon as I got here!

You wretch!

She wanted money, for tablecloths and scarves!

I told her, a person with ideals doesn't need that,

but she didn't agree, and so we did this milk business.

I'm so stupid!

You don't understand!

I couldn't get married poor!

People would gossip, saying we were skint.

I needed money.

I wanted her to understand,

but she kept shouting I was a thief and that she would tell everyone.

She kept breaking the glasses, and so I pushed her

so that she would stop.

Take them away.

Hello, inspector.

What's taking so long?

I should've been out on the street already!

Yeah, I know, Toni.

Screw that, knackerman!

A night like this, you know how many johns there are?

I'm slacking off here!

- Did she have a temperature? - No!

Were you reading?

Some Jirasek.

You're kind, Toni.

I could stay here, if you wanted.

Guess there won't be much more business out there tonight.

Of course.

Uncle...

Sleep, Pavlinka.

I had a dream about Mummy.

Get back to that, sweetie.

Blessed day...

Jezus Maria...

Yuck!
