Eh Christine, this is Dove, my wife.
Very nice to meet you.
And that is Abel. My son.
Do you want something to drink? Do you want a glass of gin?
Victor told you about that, didn't he? Yes.
Lets take a seat..
What a nice plant.
Hm...
It looks like a tomato plant.
I love tomatoes. - Oh.
But I can't have them. - Oh!
She loves tomatoes. - Oh, would you like a tomato?
No, I can't eat them.
Why?
Why can't you have tomatoes? - Oh, tomatoes belong to the nightshade family.
Everything that belongs to that family is bad for you.
Potatoes, for instance too.
Potatoes? - Yes.
Why are you a stage actor?
I? I just love to get under the skin of other people.
Can you also act as an object instead of people? An object?
Can you get under the skin of a potatoe? - No, no, I can't do that.
I think you could impersonate a potatoe very well.
Why do you keep scratching your nose?
Ooh, yes!
Right! And now back to our nice conversations.
Isn't it time for a nice raw salted herring?
Not for me, please.
Don't you like raw herring. - Yes, I do! But I can't have them.
Does herring also belong the the nightshade family?
No, of course not, that's not possible. - Well, then?!
Herring is bad for your heart.
Dove! - Ooh, don't be ridiculous.
No, leave them be for a while. - That's absurd. That's going nowhere.
So as long as those children are small, too small to be put to work in the steel mill...
...they are naked. Because there's no money for clothes.
But their mothers wear long wool skirts, all the way to the ground.
And when the childred go outside, they'll walk under their mother's skirts. Naked !
But because there's always snow outside, they get pneumonia. Often they'll die on the streets.
Pour me another one, dove.
No thanks, I still have some.
Fish meeds to swim, you know. - Yes, but I didn't have any fish.
What? You don't think that I'm in the mood to tell that story about the lama?
What are you talking about?
Your dancing is out of pace, girly. You must follow Abel's lead.
I just can't dance like that!
