Happy New Year (2019)

[bunniefuu]

Nela...

Nela...

Nela!

Teenager!

She's texting again, do you see that?

But your mom's enjoying herself!

Where's Sofi?

Tomino's picking her up.
So as usual.

Excuse me...

Sorry...

Finally! Where have you been?

A Christmas tree caught fire
in the square on the way to class,

they had to call in the fire brigade.
The traffic was stopped.

And where's Sofi?

I'm an as*h*le!

Sorry, I'm sorry. My apologies, buddy.

- Daddy!
- Hey, honey, hi!

That's a beautiful halo.
I'm sorry.

I was busy, stressed out,
I couldn't make it in time.

Yeah, for the fifth time
this month, Tomino.

If I weren't friends with your wife,
she'd still be waiting there.

But you are our friend.
And a great chick to boot!

I'm really sorry, I'm just so busy
and now the Chinese, you know.

Dad, you don't have
to lie to Hana! I'm sorry.

Is she upset with you, buddy?

Are you upset? Don't be upset
with him, it's Christmas.

Christmas, Christmas is coming...
sing, my friends!

Excuse us, but we have to go home.
Mom's waiting. Bye!

Thanks.

Christmas is coming...

I'm a millionaire...

Thank you!

- Yes, love?
- Hi.

- Where are you?
- Still at work.

A Christmas party.
Sorry, I forgot to tell you.

I see. When will you be back?

I'm not sure. Probably pretty late.
Don't wait up, okay?

I can't leave before
the boss does, you know?

Alright, got to go, sorry. Bye.

Mom, what milk did you use
for the cake?

I don't know. Why?

Because the one from the farm
is right here.

I must have used a regular one.

- And there's no need to yell.
- I'm not yelling!

You are, sweetheart,
you are without even realizing.

Mommy is always nervous.

But it's not our fault
you got divorced.

Why are you bringing it up now?

- She should find a husband.
- Well, it's your turn now.

- You're older!
- Men my age need a nurse.

I'm not anybody's servant.
You can forget that.

And what about love?

What about love?

If there were an awesome,
sexy man, your age...

- I already had your grandpa.
- You've never had another one?

His name was Štefan.
He was from Prague.

You're so cute
together in this one!

- Come on. We were so young.
- Where is he now?

I don't know. No idea.

There!

You've got him in your
bedside table, Grandma?

I was just cleaning up
and I put him in there.

Right.

- What?
- Nothing.

Thank you.

How can anyone forget their kid?

At dance class?

He also forgot me
at the movie theater!

You're like a tourist
in your own life.

You have no idea
what's going on around you.

That's why I turned on the news.

You've decorated the cookies
so beautifully.

Because you're very creative
and I'm lucky to have you.

Hi.

Is it too late?

No, not at all. I've just finished
a business meeting.

I bought ten thousand
racks. For skis. From China.

Hey, Hana. Ignore him.

One of these days he's going to stand up
by mistake and flash the Chinese guy.

What happened?

- Michal is cheating on me.
- What? - Yeah.

If I could fall asleep and not
wake up until Christmas is over.

- You don't like Christmas?
- Not anymore.

I left for Canada fifty years ago.

I'm back to reminisce and maybe
meet someone again.

- She left you?
- No. I left her.

She couldn't come with me.

She didn't want to leave
her parents behind.

- And you haven't seen her since?
- We couldn't meet before, you know?

And after such a long time, I guess
I may have been a little afraid.

She got married.

- And you?
- Me?

Well, of course
I had some relationships,

but everyone only gets
one real chance.

Only by the time you
realize that, it's too late.

Is it possible to love one person
your entire life?

It's a question everyone asks:
psychologists, artists,

every one of us.
Isn't love just for the young?

What would have happened if Romeo
and Juliet had gotten married?

Wouldn't they have divorced eventually?
Would they have been happy?

- Of course.
- Stay with us tonight.

Goodness.

I can't do that! What would I say?

- That you saw him with that b*tch.
- Okay.

- No, I can't do this, it's... Should I?
- Yes!

- Okay.
- I saw you with that...

- I sent it.
- Good. Good.

How's it going, ladies?

Sofi's asleep.
Would you like some more?

What is it?

What does it say?

Well, he's really not worth it.
Forget about him.

"I wanted to tell you after the vacation
but I guess it's better this way.

"This isn't working anymore
and we need to break up.

"Break up."

- So, Marcela, these are gluten-free.
- Hold on. - Look!

- Which ones?
- These, these, and these.

Got it?

Wow, you're beautiful!

- So, these are safe?
- Yes.

- Who says healthy is not tasty?
- I decorated these cookies!

Really?

They're pretty.
What is this? A cactus?

- A reindeer.
- I did think it was a reindeer.

What am I doing wrong?

Honey, you're not doing
anything wrong.

- So why is this happening to me?
- Because he's an as*h*le.

- How can he break up with me via text?
- Did you call him?

Absolutely not.

Exactly. I wanted to tell you
not to call him.

- Thanks, Mom.
- You're welcome.

They were supposed to go to the
Maldives the day after tomorrow, right?

The Maldives.

Drop it! There's flour in those!
Haven't you eaten today or what?

That's why they're so good.

Can she get a refund?

Do you think there's such
a thing as eternal love?

Don't ask me, honey,
I'm happily divorced.

But sometimes I get lonely.
Especially around the holidays,

when Nela cannot be
with her father

and there's nothing but those f*cking
movies about happy families on TV.

f*cking is a bad word.
We don't use words like that.

- There are children present!
- I'm sorry, sweetheart.

I'm not really looking for a man.
Especially not among those I know.

It's lucky there are a lot of men
you don't know.

- Take Sting.
- Sting is too old!

- No, he's not.
- Sting will never be old.

He may be tired.

So, do you think I shouldn't go
to the Maldives?

On your own? No way!

- Maybe she can pick someone up there?
- In this state? I doubt it.

Me and Tomino have it figured out.
She's spending Christmas Eve with us

and then we're taking her
to Veronika's, to the mountains.

- Then we're all going to be together.
- Yes! - Awesome!

Hello! I'm still here.
Talk to me!

Right! There will be interesting guys
in the mountains, right?

Yeah, married,
or divorced with their mistresses.

Leave her some illusions.

Stop talking about me
as if I wasn't here!

- Good evening, Mrs. Veronika!
- Good evening, Lukáš.

- How are you?
- Great, now that we meet again.

- Have you seen my husband?
- He's dealing with the decorations.

Thank you.

- Good evening.
- Evening.

- Good evening. Is everything alright?
- Yes, everything's fine.

Can you tell me who packed it
like this last year?

Santa's little helper?

Why don't you let
the professionals handle it?

Because I know exactly
how I want it done

and I don't have time
to explain it to anyone.

That goes on top.

What is this bullshit?

Don't you want to turn it on?
You'd see better.

Didn't you say you were going
to stay at home?

I did. With you. Because it's
Christmas Eve, if you haven't noticed.

Of course I've noticed.

I've got a present, too,
but first I need to finish this.

I thought we were going to take
the day off

and spend time together,
the three of us,

because things are going to get busy
and the new owner will arrive, too.

Why do you think
I'm working this hard?

I'm sorry. Sorry...
I didn't mean to get angry with you.

It's just that all this
drives me crazy.

I have no idea what he's like
and I want things to be perfect.

I know. And you're doing great.

You will do well
because you always do well.

f*cking lights!

Merry Christmas.

f*ck the Chinese!

Crooks! Reinforced material!

Space technology!

f*cking b*stards!

f*ck is a bad word.
We don't use words like that.

- There are children present!
- Exactly.

Ten thousand of these.

What did I expect,
they made vacuums before.

- Unbelievable.
- Do you need help?

Well, I can't lift it on my own.

Yeah, thank you.

- Hello.
- Sofi! Let's go check in.

- Milan!
- Hi! - Hello!

- How was the drive?
- Not worth a damn. - Great!

He doesn't even have Facebook.

I couldn't find a single
photograph of him online.

But I have nose for these things.
I will know it's him when he shows up.

You know what a billionaire looks like?

He looks like a person
with a lot of money, of course.

And he lives in Czechia, so he is what?

He is Czech!

- Hello. Do you have a reservation?
- Yes. As... - Felner!

Marek Felner! Right?

Come on in, you're
in the Presidential Suite.

- One moment.
- Mr. Felner, may I?

Know what? Let me get
the welcome drink, okay?

- Boss, I think he...
- Let him, okay?

- Come on, boss. - Do it for me.
Let's see how they behave.

- Boss, this is not a good idea.
- Go have that welcome drink.

- This is not going to be fun.
- It's our, I mean your, best suite.

Of course it's yours.
Just like everything else here.

You know,
I'm really happy you bought me.

- Excuse me? - I mean that you
bought the hotel, with us, of course.

Even though you've never
been here before, right?

I haven't?

- You have?
- I have?

No, I haven't been here,
I'm not an idiot.

No, you haven't, you haven't.

Of course not, I'd remember
a special guest like you.

- No doubt.
- And then you're Czech.

From around Třeboň.

You know, it feels good to meet
a compatriot after quite a while.

Would you happen to have
a special wish?

- No.
- Everyone has something they like.

I don't.

Come on, boss,
everyone likes something, right?

Likes. I like...

- Kittens are cute.
- Kittens?

- Yes, baby kittens are adorable.
- Right, of course.

Good.

- This way.
- Very well.

Do you know how to say
"Happy New Year" in Chinese?

Do you speak Chinese?

I don't but I'm learning.
For business.

b*stards!

- Well, what is it then?
- What?

- How do you say "Happy New Year"?
- I see.

Well, I forgot.
But I remember "Xièxiè".

- What does that mean?
- sh*t.

Or thank you. I don't remember.

Good evening.

What are you doing out here?

I'm trying to find the courage
to ring the bell.

They're not at home anyway.
The lights are on for security.

So now I could rob them.

- You don't look like a criminal up close.
- I don't?

- You're too old.
- Thank you.

They went to the mountains.
All three of them, the grandmother too.

- To Hotel Grand.
- I see.

Since the old man died,
they go every year.

The old man?

Miss Elena's husband.
It was a long time ago.

How long?

It must have been six years ago.

Thank you.

You stay there,
so we don't lose anything.

Gosh, why do you always
have to expect the worst?

It's always better to expect
the worst than to lose something.

If Peto was here,
we wouldn't have to worry.

- So now you miss him?
- You know I always liked him.

Dad?

What are you doing here?

I've almost forgotten
how beautiful this place was.

- Hi, everyone!
- Hi.

Mom.

This is Valika.
Valika is an influ-censor.

- Influencer. - Right.
- And a model.

Hello. Pleased to meet you.
How are you?

How are you?
My period started.

Jesus, the cramps are horrible.
I think I...

Valika! Valika, come on.

- Can I help?
- Please.

Where are you? Get over here!

You're going to piss
all over the place.

Everything seem to be falling
at my feet today.

- Where can I take her?
- 419.

What was that?

That was Daddy. With Valika.
I don't know the doggy's name.

I take back everything
I've ever said about your divorce

and congratulate you
on your decision.

This is great!

This is exactly what
I'd like to get for myself.

Once I lose a little weight.

Isn't it too short?

No.

I had all this packed
for the Maldives.

Oh, great.

You can borrow
something of mine, okay?

And how are things? I'm sorry but
we really don't have any rooms left.

It's okay. The three of them
are sleeping here

and I sleep on the sofa.

And I got this stuffed bear
and that settled me quite a bit.

Can you believe it? Of all the hotels
in the world, he picked this one!

- Who? - My dear ex, Peto.
He showed up with some influencer.

She introduced herself
to Marcela and fainted, right?

I wish I had seen that.

No worries, they're not done
showing off yet.

Had Tomino done that to me,
I'd beat her senseless with my bag.

Well...

There's no helping it,
worse has come to worst.

We have to go shopping.

And why did you break up?

- He left for Canada.
- He didn't ask you to come with him?

He did but I couldn't leave.

My momma, your great-grandmother,
was very sick.

I couldn't just leave her here.

If I had left,

- I wouldn't have been able to come back.
- Because of the commies?

- Excuse me?
- Because of the communists?

- Right. Because of the communists.
- Would you like to meet him again?

Come on! I don't even know
if he's still alive.

Would you?

At my age? To scare him off?

- You're still beautiful, Grandma.
- Right.

- But he's old, too.
- That he is.

I'm sorry too. Like very.

They're paying a lot of
attention to that man.

He must be a celebrity
of some kind.

- They say he's the new owner.
- That nobody?

He's got such a hangdog face.

- Thank you.
- You really don't want to ski?

No, no, no, no. Sports are
addictive and dangerous.

And I've got two kids
I have to watch here.

Hey there!
Ladies?

When you look at this,
don't you think it's a bit too much?

- Not really.
- No, no, no, no.

If you want to see too much,
look over there.

- Hi!
- Hello! - Hi!

- Going skiing?
- Not today, you know I don't ski.

And Valika did not want
to leave me on my own. Right?

But you've got the dog
and your daughter here!

I'm still on my period,

so I'm just going to take
a few pictures for my Instagram.

But I'm heading out tomorrow.
I just love skiing!

- See you later.
- Bye.

Maybe that breakup was not the worst
thing that could have happened.

- Cheers!
- Cheers. - To us!

To the right.
To the left...

What are you doing?

Come on!

Better try this.

Careful. Good.

- Watch out!
- A little further.

- Slowly, slowly.
- There. There.

We've done two rounds and you
still haven't moved an inch?

This is where it's all happening.

We've got everything under
control. Especially you.

Ladies, this is
the owner of our hotel.

- I hope he doesn't do business
the same way he skis. - Hello.

So you're that mysterious person.

- Are you married?
- No, not yet. Why?

No reason, no reason.
Are you here on your own?

- No, with my chauffeur.
- I see.

But I never. We never. He never.
He just brought me here. In a car.

What exactly do you do?

Love, we can discuss that
at the bar later.

What bar? We're going
night skiing!

- Are you? - He promised!
Daddy, did you forget again?!

I've never forgotten
anything in my life.

I meant to say
we were going to come here

and Mom and the girls go to the bar
with the gentleman. Right?

- Well, thanks.
- You mean us? - Yes, us.

Thanks.

You haven't seen her in fifty years?
And you're looking for her?

- Goodness, that's so romantic!
- Will you...

Nothing.

She's not staying here.
I'm sorry.

What can you do?

Can I get a room?

Just for you.
And don't give up.

I'm sure you'll find her.
I'm rooting for you!

Thank you.

But that chauffeur of yours
is a real looker!

Yes, he really is.

And what's his name?

Marek...
I mean I'm Marek.

His name is Rudolf.

- Rudolf?
- Rudolf.

Why would anyone be called
Rudolf these days?

I only know
Rudolph the Reindeer.

Come on. He doesn't look
like a Rudolf at all. No way.

- He doesn't?
- What does a Rudolf look like then?

Well, like a... I don't know.
Like some...

- Hangdog?
- Well, I guess... yes.

But you don't know
what that means, do you?

- I don't.
- That's okay.

- Tomino hasn't come back yet?
- It's really late.

Don't worry. Sofi's with him,
he's going to be okay.

Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen!

I hope you are all
enjoying yourselves.

I would like to take
this opportunity to welcome

a special guest,
the new owner of our hotel,

Mr. Marek Felner!

This song is dedicated to him.

Come and dance, come on!

Come to the dancefloor,
don't be shy.

Make my day! Come, don't worry.

No, no, no. Or should I?

Come on, boss. I know you are
a dancer, I can see it.

- Can you dance?
- I do. I can dance.

- I'm just shy.
- We can do it. Come!

I'll dance with you.

And a solo!

Boss, you're doing great!

Yeah, right. It's obvious
it's not your first time.

Great technique, foot over the tip.

Excellent!

Outstanding!

- Yes?
- Mommy, it's me.

Sofi?! Where are you?

I'm where we agreed
to meet but Daddy's not.

- Who's there with you? - Some
Hungarians let me use their phone.

And bought me a donut.

Right, okay. Stay there, okay?

- Don't go anywhere.
- Okay.

And he says, "Mountains are always tired
because they don't ever rest."

- Yes, love?
- Hi, honey. How are you?

Great! Awesome skiing!

Me and a buddy
are just having a shot.

- Everything else is okay?
- Of course, absolutely!

And Sofi?

- I'm an as*h*le!
- Here you are.

Helmet!

As usual!

Oh, come on.
So what?

- Daddy!
- Sofi!

The number you have dialed is
temporarily not in service...

His battery is dead.
I'm going to k*ll him!

Come on, honey,
they're alright, you'll see.

I know whom I married.

I'm trying not
to be hysterical

but sometimes that lightness
of being of his is so hard to take.

I can't keep pretending his
unreliability doesn't bother me.

And keep fixing everything.

But I love him so much!

- He loves you too, honey.
- You don't know that.

- I do. - Do you really think
he remembers that?

He remembers this.

Sweetie, come clean up.

You look like a plate from
a museum of modern art.

I do?

- Hi!
- Hello.

I threw up a bit.
But I'm alright now.

Sure you are.

- Sorry!
- Do you need help?

I think I'm lost.

Do you know where I'm staying?

Sofi!

We had to go to the hospital!
Daddy has a minor concussion.

I can't understand why
some people have children.

What are you saying?

That you're here drinking and have
no idea where your child is?

- Sofi!
- Mommy!

- Don't cry! I'm here now.
- I was so worried.

As long as you are always
in the right place at the right time.

You're hopeless!

Here, here!

Peto!

Why is there a woman
in ugly pajamas in my room?!

I guess that's not
your room. I'm sorry.

- Peto! - Quiet!
- I've got an idea!

Let's knock on every door

- until Peto comes out!
- That is not a good idea!

- Come back!
- Peto!

Stop yelling! And watch your step!

Peto!

Peto!

- My love! - Get up!
- I got lost!

- And stop yelling!
- Love! - Get up! Quit it!

- What's going on? Vali...
- Love! - Come here!

I got lost because I drank a bit.

Because I'm looking
forward to skiing!

Honey, you don't understand it yet
but you will one day, you'll see.

Couldn't you spend your vacations
at different hotels until then?

I thought you'd be happy
about spending time together.

- Together with Valika?
- She's not bad.

She was very excited
about skiing with you.

Don't talk to me as if I was a child!

With our compliments.
Enjoy your stay.

Nela? What are you doing?

- What happened?
- Nothing.

Dad's bucking for the Father
of the Year award!

Again?
What did he say this time?

That I'm a child and should be
happy I can ski with auntie Valika.

Right.

I'm nearly her age!
Can't he see that?

But he will. I have an idea.

Watch out!

- Here we go.
- Thanks.

Here you are!

What a hottie.

Hottie?

- Whose idea was this?
- Hana's. - I see.

- And she stayed at the hotel
in her swimsuit? - No.

She took my jacket and went out.
On her own.

- Anyway. Who wants a shot?
- I do. - No underage drinking.

- You're just like Dad!
- Hand it over.

- Dad, you're in charge of the kid!
- Of course. Come on, kid.

Let's race. First to the lift wins.

Cheers. Cheers.

I hope there's no more singing.

- I sang well, didn't I?
- Sure you did!

Let's take a walk.

Be careful. There's supposed
to be a bear in the area.

- Don't get eaten!
- Thank you, my city friend.

As soon as I meet him,
I will get him to call you.

Hi there.

It looks like quite
a long wait, doesn't it?

Wait here. I'll be right back.

Excuse me. I am sorry.

- Hello. - Hi.
- Hello. Are you going up, too?

- I'm so excited!
- Are you? So am I.

- Bye, love.
- And be careful! Bye.

Sorry.

- Come. - Where?
- Hey! Where are you going?

- We're giving a performance up there.
- What?

Why are you jumping the line?
We're all waiting.

- Can you actually play?
- Sure I can. You think I can't?

Why do you keep showing off lately?

Me? I don't show off.

I think you want
to prove something to me.

No, I don't. You're perfect,

this is your home, everyone
adores you, everyone admires you.

- Are you jealous?
- No, I'm not jealous.

It's not a popularity contest.
I want to share my life with you.

Because I love you.
And I want. Oh my god!

What are we going to do?

Help!

See that? That's men for you.
He left me here and ran away.

You wouldn't do that to your
pregnant sow, would you?

Or are you a girl, too?
Sorry, I can't really tell.

I'm expecting a little... cub, too.

I'm so excited.

And now we're each going
to go our own way. Okay?

- Are you alright?
- No, I'm fine.

Are you coming?

Yeah. I'll just take a selfie
and catch up. Go on ahead.

Okay.

And we're screwed.

- Can you please take
a picture for us? - Gladly.

- She still hasn't come down?
- Who? Auntie Valika?

- She came down about two meters.
- Two meters? Then what?

- She's afraid to ski all the way down.
- But she said she loves skiing.

- On TV maybe.
- And now what?

Wait!

Thank you.

Thank you, thanks...

Thank you very much.

No, no. Thank you.
It was very entertaining.

- Are you here on vacation? - Yes.
I'm staying at the Grand in Lomnica.

Really? We're at the Grand too,
but in Štrbské Pleso.

- How many Grand hotels are there?
- To my knowledge, at least three.

Well, that's a useful piece
of information for me. Thank you.

- You're welcome. Have a nice day!
- Thanks. You, too.

Veronika!

Hello! Sweetheart!

Veronika!

Veronika!

Veronika!

Veronika!

- And he just left?
- The bear? It was just as afraid.

- But I mean Milan.
- I see.

Milan did not leave.
He ran away.

- There has to be an explanation.
- What explanation?

That my husband left me alone
with a bear and ran for help?

- He just panicked.
- No, he didn't.

He's self-centered.
He just showed his true colors.

He's been looking for you
all over the place,

- organizing a search and rescue party.
- I know.

I already called the search
and rescue guys to tell them I'm okay.

- And I texted the girls.
- How long do we let him stew?

I don't want to see him.

I thought I had it all:
a fun job,

a baby, a husband who loves me...

And it all came crashing down.

My dear. I think you shouldn't
draw premature conclusions.

Nothing came crashing down.

You have a husband you love
and who loves you.

You having one another
is hugely lucky.

Love is a gift
and when you give it up,

it may well happen
that you never find it again.

What happens then?

Spend your entire life without love?

Nothing came crashing down.

I only ran off to fetch help.

And when I couldn't find
anyone, I came right back.

You can't just sit here like this.
We have to do something!

The mountain rescue is looking
for her. All we can do now is wait.

If anything had happened
to her, there would be blood.

Enough with the horror scenarios.

Bears don't eat people,
they're herbivores.

Yeah, exactly!

I read somewhere that you really
shouldn't climb any trees.

And turn your back on the bear.

Because it would see it
as a sign of resignation.

I did not climb anything!
I'm telling you I went back!

We have to do something.
We have to search for her!

Why? So the rescuers
can go looking for us, too?

I'm telling you we have
to do something! Dammit!

Veronika is alright.

We can't just sit here
like this, we can't!

- Veronika went home to rest.
- I did go back. I swear! I...

Where's Nela?

- She's not with you?
- No, she went after you, to ski.

She didn't.

Valika invited her up

to the ski bar. I forgot to tell you.

Wait!

- Shall we? Together? Come on.
- I have never had it in a cookie.

- Don't worry. It's just weed.
- You?

I did!

I wonder what it's going
to be like when it kicks in.

Don't listen to them.
Czechs can't take anything.

I'm a millionaire!

Let's dance! That's right.

Nela!

- Mom, are you following me?
- Get up right now! We're going home!

- I'm fine right here! I'm not going!
- Stop it!

- Do you want me to make a scene?
- I'm used to that!

The constant bickering with Grandma.
You calling me all the time,

Dad not giving a damn,
coming here with this genius.

A great vacation, staying in one room
with my Mom and Grandmother.

You can't make things
worse than that!

There, take me away!

- Shots! For everyone!
- Sweet!

Hey, kiss me!

I have an apartment in Prague
but I'm always on the road.

For fifteen years now.

I've never really had time
for anything else.

Do you enjoy living like that?

You spend most of your time in a car,
waiting for that tragedy of a boss.

What do you do in there?

- Actually, I wanted to tell you...
- Don't you dare throw up!

I'm not feeling well.

- Are you okay?
- Okay might be overstating it.

- Where's Valika?
- You're such a moron!

Your teenage daughter gets lost and
drunk with some cretins in a ski bar,

and the only thing you can ask is
where is your idiotic girlfriend?

She's hanging off
some other geezer,

one who happens
to be richer than you!

I really can't understand
why I ever married such a selfish,

uncaring, egotistical...

as*h*le?

I could tear you to pieces!

Jesus!

What is this?

We're going to discuss this tomorrow.

Turn around.

You could have gotten k*lled.

How were you planning to come down?
In this state. On your skis?!

If you ever do this again,
I'll k*ll you! Understood?

If I k*ll myself on the skis,
you won't have to k*ll me yourself!

Stop right now or I'll k*ll you both!

Forgive me. I panicked.

But I came back. To save you.

Why do I keep spouting nonsense?

I know I haven't been
on my best behavior lately.

But with the new owner

and worrying about what's going
to happen when the baby's born...

Maybe you'll stop loving me.
I won't have you all to myself anymore.

So, I panicked,
just like with the bear...

And the thing is, you're
such an exceptional woman.

No, really, you are.
I love you so much.

And I would like to make it up
to you, both of you.

Forgive me.

Put these in a vase somewhere.

No, no, no, no!

- Good morning.
- Good morning!

- Come here!
- No. - Come on!

Come to me.

No. No.

No...

Don't get drunk
first thing in the morning.

- May I talk to you for a moment?
- Of course.

The boss wants to make a dinner
reservation on the viewing deck.

For two. Tonight.

No problem. Will you
choose the menu now?

- I'm going to have to ask him.
- There's no need, Mr. Felner.

You know very well
what you want.

- How did you figure it out?
- The internet.

You may be careful about
not publishing your images

I've been doing this for a few years
now and I can tell who's who.

- Did you want to test us?
- No, it was really just coincidence.

But I'm glad it happened.

And I'm a pretty good
judge of character myself.

And you are excellent
at what you do.

Thank you.

Please don't tell your friend.

I want to tell her myself.
During the dinner.

- Of course.
- Thanks.

I noticed the bouquet in the lobby
right away. It's gorgeous.

- What did he say?
- That he panicked.

And that he's worried I might
like the child more than him.

- And that he loves me.
- At least he was honest.

But how can I count on him now?

Don't look at me!

My boyfriend broke up with me
the day before Christmas Eve. Via text.

That's still better than taking a walk
right now with someone called Valika.

I've got some gossip. Valika has moved
into the Presidential Suite.

- With the new owner? - And the dog.
It's going to get even more exciting

because my overly motivated
husband sent up some kittens.

- That sounds somewhat kinky.
- I have no idea how that happened.

- The new owner is a little weird, right?
- He is.

But the chauffeur is great.
Right, Hana?

He invited me to dinner.
To some tower or something.

- Do you like him? - Of course
she likes him, just look at her.

- She does, alright!
- Stop it right now!

It always starts very romantically.

And then he knocks you up
and leaves you in a forest with a bear.

I'm never getting married!

I bet you won't!

Go away! Down! Sit! Stay!

Lie down! Stay! Or something,
I don't care. Boss, help!

What are you up to, Rudolf?
Are you starting a ZOO?

- Well, aren't you funny?
- You know what, I've had enough.

I want to get behind
the wheel, do you hear me?!

Diesel, all I need. Not all this!

And what about that young
lady down in the Lobby Bar

telling everyone she's staying
at the Presidential Suite?

- Have you had enough of her too?
- Boss, she scares me.

She just moved in, you know?

Don't worry, she's going to
move out too. Tonight. I promise.

Boss, the dog looks like you.
In profile.

Just like you.

I'm going to New York in January.

On business.
Would you like to tag along?

- Mom won't let me.
- If we'll promise not to drink.

You know, we tried a lot of stuff,
too, when we were young.

Children don't have to repeat
their parents' mistakes, right?

Don't worry, Dad. It was a one-off
thing. Because of Valika.

And with Mom, you can't
help living a healthy life.

- Though Grandma's pretty good
at sabotaging that. - She really is.

Here we go: Three-four-now!

I want to be happy all year long!

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

- Come on, give me a kiss...
- Excuse me!

Granny...

- Look, Nelly. I found you a boyfriend.
- Are you alright?

My darling! Why is
your hair so strange?

What?! Let's go outside.
Come! Come!

I apologize.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Good morning.

Hello, Elena. It's me, Štefan.

Are you nuts?
What does it mean?

You mean to say you're... Štefan?

Lord above. Jesus!

- What's going on here?
- She’s acting all stoned.

I forgot to get rid of the cookie!

I'm sorry, she's usually not like this.

- Who are you?
- Well, I am...

A former friend of Elena's.

You must be her daughter.

I see. I'm Marcela, nice to meet you.
Let me go check on her.

Don't go anywhere, alright?
Girls, keep him here!

- We've already met. Hana.
- We did. How much money did you get?

Not that much but it was worth it.

I know you from a photo in a bedside
table. I'm Nela, the granddaughter.

- Hello. - We don't know each other.
It's a pleasure to meet you. Veronika.

- Barbi.
- Štefan.

Come in. Let's have some coffee and you
can tell us what you do and... and stuff.

- No worries. We're always like this.
- You are? - You'll get used to it.

You can't tell me
this is not terribly kitschy.

It's beautiful but...

Disneyland.

- You don't like it?
- No, quite the opposite. I like it.

- I love fairytales!
- What's your favorite?

Okay, guess!

The Lion King. It's the best!

I must have seen it fifteen times.
When I was a kid, I mean.

Sometimes I try to imagine what it must
have been like here,

back before World w*r I.

You know, nothing there, natural beauty,
a bunch of hunting lodges,

and one of them mine.

And this belongs to me.

Great. And I'm a celebrity author
and that villa by the lake is mine.

- I'm serious.
- So am I.

Hana, I'm not a driver.

The whole thing is
the other way around.

I see.

I hope you had your fun.

Congratulations. You're the second
guy to fool me this Christmas.

Thanks for the invitation.

This is from my Chinese
business partners.

A New Year's gift.

- They're really good at this stuff.
- Isn't this ill*gal?

- In Slovakia? Since when?
- Since this is a national park

with all the chamois antelopes,
or those Slovak rabbits you've got here.

- Groundhogs?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Nonsense! You'll see when I set it
off at midnight. Spectacular!

Everyone will drop their jaws.

Are you having fun?
Is everything okay?

Yeah. I mean...
Yes.

There is no champagne!

And could they play something
more poppy? This is boring.

- Vanilla...
- Valika.

Of course, let me arrange that.
It's not a problem.

The bubbly!
There's nothing to drink!

Why is everyone so "slowed down"?
Do you think this is okay?

Yes. I mean no, of course not.
I'll fix it right away.

A bottle of champagne
for the owner's table.

- It's on its way!
- Good.

- Kiss me, love.
- No, no. - Kiss me.

Not here, in front of...
the gentleman.

I'm never leaving this room again.

Come on, Mom, nothing really happened.

- You just laughed a bit more, that's it.
- And then I ran.

After fifty years.
Who knows what he thinks about me.

Come on, it's nothing.

There are more important things
to consider after fifty years.

- He doesn't care about a dumb cookie.
- He must think that...

that I get drunk and do drugs
in my seventies.

Stop laughing. This is terrible.
It's no laughing matter.

Seriously.

- What's taking so long?
- Grandma's refusing to leave the room.

But Štefan is still waiting for you.
And he's very nice. And really great.

- Too bad I won't find out for myself.
- Why? Are you planning to die again?

- I'm planning to stay in this room.
- What about New Year's Eve?

Nothing. No New Year's Eve.

Nothing.

Oh, Jesus!

- Let me try then.
- Good! Fingers crossed!

- Can I join you?
- Of course, Dad, sit down.

Mom's looking great tonight.

I hope you're not
trying to pick me up.

I just wanted to buy
you a drink.

And maybe ask for a dance?

You can forget that!

Thank you!

Thank you.

Honored guests, dear friends.

I hope you're enjoying
your evening.

It will be midnight soon
and we will bring in the new year

with our loved ones
and people we care about.

Because moments with people
we love are what counts.

I hope the new year
meets all your expectations.

Cheers and thank you
for spending this evening

at my hotel. Cheers!

You b*stard!

We are not done yet and
we have another song to play.

Let me ask you
all to the dancefloor.

- What is it?
- I think I'm in labor.

Millionaire!

Yes?

It's me. Open the door.

I don't know.

I don't know.

You surprised me.

I never expected to see you again.

And I was worried
I would never see you again.

There. You see, and I ruined it all.

Please, open the door.

You haven't changed a bit.

Neither have you.

Don't worry. We can handle this.
Everything's alright, you'll see.

There, just a bit further.
We will be there in twenty minutes.

You can do it, you're
a brave girl, aren't you?

- I can't go any further!
- Sit down.

- Good. Good. Okay?
- How do I know?

- What's wrong?
- Nothing. I'm in labor.

- Well, honey, it's going to be alright.
- What should I do?

- I don't know. I had a C-section.
Call an ambulance! - Of course.

Let's breathe together, okay?

Hello? My wife's giving birth.
In a hotel.

What should I do? I am calm, dammit!

Towels.

Hot water. And scissors!

Why the hell
would I need scissors?

Sofi? Sofi, here you are!

Goodness gracious!
Your daddy's lost his mind.

- How could he forget you here?
- Surprise! Daddy didn't forget me here.

Ten, nine, eight...

seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one!

Happy New Year!

Thank you. Cheers.

Now pay attention. Something special!

Chinese fireworks!

Happy New Year!

I thought this would be
the worst holiday season of my life.

And now?

Scissors, hand me the scissors!

It's a boy!

Get off her, you idiot!

Where did they go?
Did you see them?

There they are, ahead
of you, on the lake.

- I saw them go into the forest.
- Do you see him?

This way! This way!

- Cut him off! - Get on the road!
- Did you hear that?

- Can you hear that?
- Where is it coming from?

From behind those trees.
Police! Police!

f*ck the Chinese!

I guess they wanted
to wish me a happy new year.

I'll show you, setting fires
in a national park!

I love you.

I love you, too.

Where have you been so long?

Where you did not want
to go with me, unfortunately.

So much has happened.

Almost an entire lifetime
has happened to me.

Now that we've met,

it feels like those fifty years
only happened yesterday.

What do we do now?
We're in our seventies.

I don't know
how much time we have

but I do know that I only
want to be with you from now on.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!
