ADAM AND EVE Part 1

Adam...

Eve...

"And just so you know, I'm going to tell daddy!"

"If you don't tell on me, I'll take you to Paradise!"

In Paradise.

"You know what? Let's play Adam and Eve. This is the tree."

"... and this the snake..."

"... and this is the forbidden fruit!"

Meanwhile, an uncle from Modřany came to visit and asked for the children.

"Adam, just look at you!"

"You too!"

"You know what? I'll wash it out!"

"Adam, Adam, where are you?"

"We can't come out because we're naked!"

But all their efforts were in vain:

Adam and Eve were driven out of Paradise and had to work by the sweat of their brows...

"You now have permission to say goodbye to your uncle.

You will have to answer for this mischief later."

"Aren't they little angels?"

In the evening, their nanny longed for some well-deserved rest.

And Adam and Eve always got a fair share. Whatever one received, the other received too.

Eve was now 16 years old...

And Adam was 16 years old as well...

And if Eve had already liked playing tricks on Adam as children,

she now liked doing it twice as much.

At breakfast.

"Brother, do you perchance have a light?"

"Has our brother gone deaf, or does he no longer recognise his sister?"

Adam should have been born in the Middle Ages:

just look how bravely he endures these torments!

And since they always wanted the same thing...

"This cigarette butt belongs to Eve, and the second cigarette does too!"

"Don't believe him, daddy dear, he does it all the time -

yesterday he even smoked three cigarettes at once!"

Eve eventually took pity on Adam and invited him to 5 o'clock tea that same day.

"Oh, this is nothing - I got a few scars while fencing today."

"Do you count father's slaps among those scars too?"

"How she humiliated and embarrassed me! They're all a brood of vipers, these women!"

And Adam swore cruel revenge on Eve.

At 7:30 in the morning...

"It's half past seven!"

"It's already a quarter to eight!"

And since they shared the bathroom...

"I was here first!"

"Eve, dear Eve, let me go first, or I'll be late for teacher's class!"

"I couldn't care less! Set up an outpost in the kitchen!"

"Please lend me your washbasin, Máry!"

As they met on the stairs...

"That bath today is going to cost you dearly!"

Adam came home from school before Eve...

"What a fool - what does he see in that girl!?"

"But it would look good on me!"

"Never mind, Máry's feet are probably bigger!"
