Frank, Frank!

We must be sitting on an ant-hill ...jau!

We can't be... - Why can't we...?

Jau! See? One went straight up my...

up my trouser leg...

Well you know what, take those pants off.

Hmm... that's really... yow...

Jau! - What's the matter?

This is terrible... me too. I can't stand it.

Wait. - What? It'll eat you alive.

Frank...

Jau!

Well, what's the matter?

Hey, look, come here...

Look, I'd never have expected an ant-hill here. Would you?

Hey look, you've got some ants here... - Me? Have I?

Yeah and you've got... - You've got some on your leg...

Jau! - Sure - and there's one running here...

There are dozens on you - take your clothes off...

That isn't true... you've got one here...

Wait, I am going to fall -

What if you do? There is one -

I bet you - there is one... here...

Jau... wait, you can't see a thing -

wait till I take it off...

I don't mind...

You can see now, can't you?

You are passionate, my boy...

No, I'm not.

Look, there's another ant...

Where? - Here!

How does the damn thing open?

Frank, Frank!

Done.

See, I managed...

Dad... - What?

Found anything? - No.

Luis! - Yes -

Found anything?

No. I haven't got anything either. - Neither have I.

Matt, you got something? I don't.

Dad... - What?

Come here!

Wait, they'll go away.

Of course they won't - they are coming closer.

For Christ's sake, what do the idiots want here?

I wish I knew.

Hook me up.

There's no peace, even in the woods. Terrible...

The ferns are nice, but the mushrooms have all been picked...

Jesus, I'd like to shoot these people.

Every damned place occupied by people

Sure, every damned place...

And every fool goes picking mushrooms and we have run around like idiots...

Pete, where are you? - Look, let's sit down.

Look... I'll have a smoke.

You know what? - Yes?

Let's try the deep woods...

That's an idea - let's go into the forest.

It's all the same - wood or forest...

Well. Let's give it a try...

Look, there's raspberry - grab it! Take it... To the forest...

Where are you?

Come here - this is where we'll meet again...

Pete, let's go and join gradpa...

Did you find it?

Where are you, grandpa? - There are some more a bit lower down...

Well, what is it?

I've got no mushrooms, but my feet are burned by nettles,

Spit on them, Hedy!

Look... Come here. - What?

And how am I to get there? - Let's make...

Say what... ...a plan - we'll meet here...

Frank! - Don't run off - you'll get lost.

Come over here... Matt, come here, come to mummy...

Look... - Watch out and don't get scratched...

Say what... - What are we going to do?

We'll start out from here, form a line -

do you get me?

We've got to find something!

Frank! Frank!

Look, at toad-stool - beautiful, like a picture...

Look at it - you'll remember it! - Atoad-stool, so what?

Look, it's got a little skirt underneath...

I like it... - It is nice -

at least we've found something...

Look, I'll tell you something -

I'm dead tired... - I'm going for a walk.

I'm going to find a nice spot - - Of course, I've about had enough too.

We'll look for mushrooms later on.

For heaven's sake, what have you packed? It weighs a ton!

Food and drink - what else?

I have a bag full of food too... - So it's drinks, why not...

Drinks - they'll be warm - let me see...

Come here, Pete! - It's warm, isn't it?

Yes, it's warm. - Well...?

We have to find a place to keep it cool - this way it's no good...

Careful, boys, careful! Pete, come here!

- Come, I'll undress you. Pete - don't get wet, do you hear?

All right - is it nice to bathe in?

Hurry up, Matt - come here - Matt... - Go, change...

take the blouse off...

Come,

you've got to take your clothes off first and then you can go and bathe with daddy.

Of course - that will be nice...

That will be nice, that will be nice...

Where's the beer? Hand it over...

You and your beer! Let me see -

Hurry up! Come down here, come, come...

Into the water, boys!

Matt, put your hands up! Pete -

Hurry up! Hurry...

Boys, it's great! You'll bathe...

Let's go... last one in is a rotten egg... hurrah!

Don't splash! - Do splash him, do, splash him...

Jesus, it's great - cuts right through you -

Matt - from the other side...

I give up...

Come and join us - it's good for your health,

come, boys, grandpa...

Help! I'm outnumbered! I give up.

It's twisting my feet, brr,

it's twisting my feet!

Let me tell you - she's dancing quite well...

You can see she was a dancer...

If she'd manage to lose 100 pounds... - lf... Well...

...she'd be a ballerina! Swan lake -

This is like paradise.

Paradise, isn't it? Great...

I said it was like paradise, didn't I?

That's what people need -

a bit of peace and quiet -

that's all one needs to be happy...

Of course. Peace and quiet,

that's what we need most...

Let me tell you - if I had the power,

I'd make everyone come here - I'd make it a duty - and you'd see...

I would...

Just look - look at that tree - I've never seen a tree like this...

did you ever...

it looks like a great tower... - It does...

Beautiful... look - let me tell you -

nature is like a church... but what's the use...

You are right...

Great, isn't it?

Dad - dad - do you hear?

Now what? - Dad!

Someone's calling for help. Luis and Hedy aren't here... look...

Don't be silly...

Listen - do you hear...?

It isn't Luis or Hedy - it's someone else...

I am sorry that I can't... under these circumstances...

Don't be silly - if you loved me,

you wouldn't even notice that someone's calling...

Yeah - if she didn't call for help...

Dad - now it's two people calling...

Women. Do you have the bottle-opener?

Here...

That's a man...

I hope Luis and Hedy won't get involved!

Now it's three people!

What's the matter?

Shut up and breathe - we'll get away...

Mummy, the bridge is down. - Forget it - there's no time now...

Come on, damn you...

People always get in trouble, don't they? - People do...

Come here, dad!

It isn't you they are calling - come on and don't pester me.

And you'd expect me to... under such conditions...

I'll tell you something - my parents are going out tonight -

we'll go for a drive now and we'll go to our house in the evening.

What a stupid idea! To you house... - Why is it stupid?

Someone will come - and what are you going to say?

No one will come, don't worry, my parents are going to visit friends...

I wonder -

Granny! Granny!

Here I am - what's the matter?

Mrs. Capova.

Luis baby... - That's terrible! I can't stand it...

Luis baby, Luis baby...

Tell me - where do you thing they are?

You are the clever one, always - don't tell me you don't know...

You always pretend to know everything!

Johnny! - Luis baby, Luis baby...

Johnny! Johnny!

John! Johnny...

Mary!

Let's go home, quickly! Where have you been?

Here we are waiting for you like idiots, calling for you...
