TWO LOTTERY TICKETS
Calm down, please.
Let me speak.
It's going to be OK.
I only need a thousand Euros. I'll get it from Chelu this week.
I don't have any cash to send you now.
Try to borrow some from Mariana.
Is she working illegally too?
I'll find a way to send you some. Then you can leave Giuliano.
Fuck that asshole! I'll break his legs if I catch him.
You'd better quit. He doesn't pay and he's a liar too.
Tell him that if I catch him, I'll break his legs.
All right. OK, bye. I love you.
Hello?
Buddy, come over here.
- What are these marks? - Sorry?
These marks right here. Isn't this paint?
What have I paid for?
This is as good as ifs ever going to get.
I could've fixed it myself with a spray can.
I told you, it needs to be replaced.
But you wanted the cheap way. It can't get any better.
- I'm not paying for this. - Say what?
Am I supposed to flush money away?
Now I'll have to go elsewhere and pay that guy as well.
Do whatever you want, but you have to pay me.
At least pay for the materials.
Just take a look at this! Can I go out like that?
Do you want people to laugh at me?
- So? - I only want to cover my costs.
I'm not giving you a dime! You takin' me for a fool?
Don't leave like this... Pay for the materials at least.
Please.
Take this, you pathetic wretch.
Go to hell, lowlife.
Wretch!
Cheers!
How are you, man?
Hi.
- What happened? - Well...
I placed a bet and they scored at the last minute.
I don't know what happened today, nothing worked out. Not a thing!
Last Thursday I won 210 lei and I've lost 140 just today.
If you don't slow down...
- Hey, Ion! - What's up with you, drinking so early?
- What's wrong? - I'm penniless, that's what's wrong.
Who isn't?
I told Gina I'd send her 1,200 € this week.
- That guy treats her like a slave! - How much do you have?
With the money from Chelu, 280. But I need to finish the house as well.
- So, how much do you need? - About 20,000.
- Piece of cake for you. - Damn it...
According to my plan, I should've had 12,000 by now.
I'll find away.
That's rough, Dinel...
- Maybe I can sell something. - Sell what? Your underwear?
Let's place some bets!
The match is about to start and the stakes are 18:1
for Botezatu scoring in the second half.
If you bet 10 lei, you win 180. If you bet 100, how much, Pompiliu?
.See?
- I'm not betting my money away. - Listen, sucker.
The last 3 times, he only scored in the second half.
- They have a bad defense. Sure win! - I don't know football.
I used to watch our team in the 3rd division. But they flopped.
- What if I'm telling you it's a sure bet? - Why don't you bet, then?
I've had bad luck today.
Here's what we'll do. I'll pay for you.
Stop it!
10 lei, for Botezatu scoring in the second half.
- If I win, cut down my tab. - Sure...
Watch here. That's how you make money.
You're wasting your money.
- I've only spent 10 lei. - 10 lei today, 40 lei yesterday...
Had you given me all the money you lost, I'd have my house.
You'll thank me when I give you 100 for nothing.
Put it in the bank, for the interest.
Put money in the bank? Are you crazy? Wanna give it to the Jews?
Better set it on fire!
And gambling it away is better?
Do you think he knows he's about to... when he scores? It's all so random.
All matches are rigged so that suckers like you bet their money.
- The managers and club owners get it. - Whatever.
How come teams that small have won the championship?
Betting mafia! That's why! Do you know what the first ever fixed match was?
The one between the Romans and the Jews. When they caught Jesus.
No! No! You moron!
- What happened? - The moron got a red card!
You think it happened by chance?
I think I'll sell my dad's Dacia.
You won't even get 200 € for it. Does it still work?
Sure it does. Well, it needs to be fixed. And painted.
We can bet on the Tour de France.
Why don't you sell it for spare parts?
Wow! 6 million, the lottery prize!
- How about it? Let's play the lottery! - Get out of here!
- How much? -6 million.
It's Gina!
Hello? Yes, love!
Fine. How about you?
Yes.
What?
Who? Him'?
And what did you say?
Are you crazy? Gina, are you mental?
Why would you move in with him after the way he treated you?
I told you I'd send the money in two days!
Please be patient, I'll send you the money!
I can't believe it. What are you doing to me?
Is he there? Let me talk to him.
Put him on, please. Thank you.
Hello? Buona sera, don Giuliano.
Lo sono Dinel, il... marito di Gina.
I don”: know what you're up to, but if you touch her, I'll break your legs.
Comprende? Understand?
Yeah, that's right! I'll break your legs.
Understand? Capisci? I'll turn you to dust!
You damn mascarpone...
I'll break your legs...
Gina? I'm asking you, please,
tell him that if he touches you, I'll sweep the floor with him.
I'm not afraid of the mafia!
Did you hear me? Hello? Gina?
Fucking bastard!
Put it on my tab, all right?
So you were saying... What are the lottery rules?
How do you want to play? Basic, combined, reduced,
combined reduced variant?
So, the basic version.
You have to guess Gout of 49 numbers.
What's so hard about that?
In school I got it right without doing the math!
It's not that easy to get all of them right.
No one's guessed them in half a year, that's why the prize is so large.
Better not waste my money, then. I'm broke enough as it is.
- Ion... - Don't be a sucker!
Mugurel played the lottery and he only guessed 5 numbers.
He bought a flat, a satellite TV with CD-player, a new German car...
- No CD-player. - He does have a satellite dish.
- Wait, didn't he have a Dacia Sport? - He's got a Golf 4 from Germany.
- What a shame! That was a good car. - Look.
You choose the numbers, I'll pay. If you win, we'll split fifty-fifty.
- You pay for it. - Didn't I just say so?
Give me a lottery ticket.
- Can you spare 2 Lei? - Who, me?
I gave you money last week. Have you forgotten? I haven't!
Last week I took your advice and bet 80 lei on Chelsea - PSG.
So, what about it?
And who paid for beer last night?
Fine...
Here's 2 Lei. I'll start writing it down.
- Goddamn Scrooge! - Goddamn thief!
Be careful, the lottery is a scam.
You think they don't know the numbers?
How come they only win on Easter or Christmas?
- Should I pick random numbers? - Yes. No! Not random ones.
Some people put in their shoe size or their wife's age.
Anything you like.
OK, my age"-
Gina's...
Our house number... What's my shoe size? 43...
So 40, 39, 41, 43 and 42. That makes five. I need one more.
Did you pick them in sequence? 39, 40, 41, 42 and 43?
Pick 44 then, that would be next.
If you pick these, you don't stand a chance! They'll never come out.
- So what do I do? - Pick some others.
Which ones?
- What's your birth year? '75, right? - Yes.
So you have 1, 9, 7 and 5.
How much is that, Pompiliu?
- Pick 22! - 22, then...
You'll be sorry if his first numbers come out.
If they do, I'll cut down my own hand.
This is it! In a few days, it's going to look as good as new.
You won't even sell it for spare parts.
You're an ignoramus.
This car is older than me. It's vintage.
Vintage, my ass! It belongs in the scrap yard.
- Who'd collect such a rust bucket? - It's from the first batch.
It has French parts. Easy!
The screw bolts might've been Romanian though.
Don't you worry, I'll fix it.
Then you'll beg me for a ride through town!
- Well, get it started and let's go! - I don't think it'll start.
Shouldn't this door open, though?
- Suck my... - What was that?
Sorry, I wasn't talking to you.
- I asked what you said! - He asked what you said!
Nothing. I was just talking to myself.
You said nothing, but you were talking to yourself? How's that?
- Well? - What did I do? What did I say?
- That's exactly what we asked you! - Well, I didn't say anything.
Really, dork-face?
- Can't you see what you look like? - What do I look like?
Apologize, man!
I apologize, but I don'! know what for.
- Apologize, don't give me this crap! - I apologize.
Look at you, all scared like that. Did you like it?
The idiot sure got scared.
What have you got there?
