The lioness was biting off chunks of a goat feeding it piece by piece to her cubs.
Like a person.

Like my flesh was crawling on my bones.
-Did you pass out? -No, but it was like being drunk.
- Were you scared? - Of what? The lioness.
The lioness.
Why would the lioness scare me? She was on the tv.
But all that blood that raw meat and those cubs I mean, they were lion cubs, but they just looked like big old cats.
You had a panic attack.
I'd get them too, if I got wind of a malpractice suit.
I'd be shitting bricks.
Then I'd pop a Xanax, grease a palm Then I'd pop a Xanax, grease a palm and it all sorted itself out.
It won't kill you.
I can give you a shot to calm you down, it takes the edge off in no time.

I can give you a few measly pills instead, but - Go on, put your head down! - But, doc don't these painkillers usually go in the ass? Yeah, but I'm doing a place where it kicks in faster.
All done! You'll see, it's instant, like a massage.
You'll see, it's instant, like a massage.
Very smooth.
Only without the happy-ending.
So doc, you owe 4,000.
I owed 4,000 two days ago.
Now it's 8 grand and a half.
That's life, gambling ain't an exact science.
Go on Relster, give me a few more days, and I'll get it to you.

There aren't any side effects usually.

Now I gotta cough up 8 and a half grand.

-But lately it's been going south.
-You think I don't know that? What am I to you, a loser? Staying up to call the hospital, the morgue Staying up to call the hospital, the morgue to find you, dead, alive, whichever.
And you couldn't care less, can't even be bothered to text You're a loser and a half if you think I had a say in the matter! -Say what now?! -So you think I did what all night? Hung loose with the lads?! That's why I didn't call?! You weren't home is what you did! Puiu's my witness - pull this crap one more night and I'm done! -I'm gonna take the kids and go! -Speak up, they can't hear you in space! - Mind your business, pops! - I'm your witness, ain't I? I was in a car accident.
That's why I didn't come home, why I didn't call.
That's why I didn't come home, why I didn't call.
Or is this special effects, do ya reckon? And that on the car, it just looks like a dent, huh? Go look for yourself! You're never here all day and all night! A pipe burst in the washer, flooded the house I slapped duct tape on it myself to stop the leak.
The kids ask about you and I shrug like a halfwit.
Night after night I watch TV with Puiu, of all things! - And I'm what, shit on a stick? - No, pops, stop meddling! Me, meddling?! - Will you drop me off at the bus? - Hello! - Will you drop me off at the bus? - Hello! -Hello -I'll give them a ride to school.

They couldn't reach you on the radio last night He came to get you! - Get my goat, more like! - No, get you to work.
Stop scaring the poor kid, can't you see he's shaking? Stop scaring the poor kid, can't you see he's shaking? I'm not scared, just cold.
- He should be scared! - I'm cold, not scared.
Get in the car, you! If you ever come near li'l Magda again Magda.
The "little" cramps her style.
If you set foot here again, I'll tie your balls in a bow! I got tested for HIV and syphilis last week.
Just so you don't worry about that.
Just so you don't worry about that.
I'll slit you like a Chinese eyeball and drop you in the river.
Got it? Bye! I'll be by soon with Bridget Jones's Diary! Bye-bye! Guys, how 'bout a game of Remi tonight, like we used to? We'll order some pizza.
Or Chinese, to spite your mom! Huh? Magda? Kiddo? Kiddo? -I've got swimming practice tonight.
-Want me to come cheer you on? No, I want you to pick me up.
It lets out at 4.
Come again? He wasn't at the clinic? Did you look for him? I doubt he was hiding under a table, giving me the slip.
Might've been in the can, a coffee run I don't know.
He wasn't out, he wasn't there at all! Go ahead and check if you don't believe me! I did check, beforehand.
I knew he'd be there.
That's why I sent you.
Tough luck, he wasn't.
-What's this? Who're you calling? -The doc.
He's got another thing coming if he thinks he can outsmart me.
Call him, sure.
He'll feed you a bunch of bullshit or disappear.
Better yet, let me go over to his home.
Which house? He gambled it all away.
He's got nothing! No house, no car, not even his kid's bike! It's why his wife left, ain't it?! So what's left to take? The skin off his back? So what's left to take? The skin off his back? You bleeding-heart boys are such a turn-on! Gheorghe Marin Hello.
My husband's lost his card and I'd like to have it canceled.
Yap.
Marin Gheorghe 1531128811242.
Maybe we'll get lucky this time.
Hello, ma'am.
My husband lost his card, so I'd like to block it.
Yes 1531128811242.
That's right, yes.
Could you tell me where it was used? Yes, might be an older payment we made.
Game Space? My son must've taken it to play there! No, no, don't block it.
Thank you! No, no, don't block it.
Thank you! This time we both heard where he's at, Relu.
Yeah, I'll flush him out.
Don't worry.
Sabin's going with you.
I shudder to think of the gossip, if the neighbors hear us! Sorry, what? Nothing.
The problem is that it's ancient, all the seals are rusty.
Not even changing them, and the hose as well it doesn't have much use left.
Do you have an 18-millimetre wrench? Do you have an 18-millimetre wrench? Do you have one? An 18-mill? What does it look like? A bit bigger than this 16-mill and smaller than this 20-mill.
Let me check my husband's tools, in the closet.
What's up, Pops? What's up, Pops? Did you find it? Just give me a minute please.
Just give me a minute please.
Jesus, a classy joint! Can't complain.
I figured, if we get bored, we can try the ice rink or a movie.
If we get bored? If we get bored? If I turn out to be too dumb and boring, is what you mean at least you got to see a movie.
You'd make sure I'm busy gorging on popcorn.
Then you lose my number and you're off the hook, huh? Something like that.
We'd at least make out a bit during the movie? -Maybe.
Just a bit.
-'Cause you're a gentleman at heart.
No, but I'd probably pick a movie I like so I'd be more focused on it.
Rather than on the monkey next to you! No, you're OK.
I'm just a movie buff, so No, you're OK.
I'm just a movie buff, so -OK, am I? -Yes.
More than OK! - Do you want a soda? A falafel? - Soda? Are you sure? Don't you think that's a bit forward? Sorry.
I actually meant to wait half an hour then get you in the can for a quickie.
There is that, I guess I even showered, for nothing.
I usually like to go au naturel.
I even showered, for nothing.
I usually like to go au naturel.
I'll check the slot machines upstairs.
You stay here, watch the exits! I'll check the slot machines upstairs.
You stay here, watch the exits! - Call me if you see him.
- Sure, man.
Call me, are we clear? Yes, Relster, crystal.
How thick do you think I am? - Can you ask me something? - Yes.
You're asking if you can ask, or do ya wanna ask me something? I've got this friend whose boyfriend was in your class and he says your dad's a Woman? Dwarf? Alien? Woman? Dwarf? Alien? A mobster.
-Yeah.
-Yeah?! Just this morning, over cereal, he put a ninja sword through two guys.
Blood everywhere, big bits of brain in my milk -Tastes like aspic! -You're off your rocker.
So what's up with you working with my dad? A classy guy like you, driving a cab?! There's a name for this, you know? The Electra Complex.
There's a name for this, you know? The Electra Complex.
Meaning I'm a busybody? Do you know Jung? He was a great psychiatrist, the founder of psychoanalysis.
- So he postulated - He what? He said that mother and child are locked in a psychosexual competition to lay claim to the dad.
Gross! And not true - they're both thorns in my side.
Gross! And not true - they're both thorns in my side.
And if you carry this complex around during your psychosexual development you'll end up with a fixation on your dad shown by your sexual mate's likeness to your dad, be it real or desired.
In our case, you want him to be a cabbie, like your dad.
This Jung guy's theory doesn't apply to our case.
This Jung guy's theory doesn't apply to our case.
So you're contradicting Jung? First of all, dad's a wimp and no way would I have you be like him! Secondly, you're not my sexual mate.
Think on that while I go to the can.
Guv' Teddy! Sorry for barging in, you do seem quite busy.
Can we have a chat? Won't take a second.
You're quite the skirt-chaser, Teddy! My kid this morning.
Another in the afternoon.
Tonight you'll go for thirds, huh? -Like a self-respecting man about town.
-Mister Relu -Like a self-respecting man about town.
-Mister Relu Let's not interrupt each other.
It's not nice.
Just a thought.
Agreed? Let's be civil.
Look here.
Since you wanna check in and report back to your dad this scumbag's in here somewhere.
If the girl doesn't tire you out, maybe you can look around for him.
- If you spot him, call me.
- OK.
One other thing.
One other thing.
As for our chat this morning about little about Magda.
Did you reconsider? Take a guess! No! No, no, no! I got my dick wet just now, right here in the can! Super! Super! What's less super is that you're 8.
5 grand in the hole.
Boss, like I told Relu the other day If I get lucky, all I need is 2-3 days, and get a load of this If I get lucky, all I need is 2-3 days, and get a load of this - When was this? - Yesterday.
At my office.
Doc, sure you're not talking out of your ass? You can ask Relu.
He came by my office, we shot the bull for half an hour and he said he'd give me 2 or 3 more days.
Relu said that? - Yes! Why don't you just ask him? - I did.
- So? - He said you weren't even there.
- What?! - You gave us the slip.
- What?! - You gave us the slip.
Maybe he forgot.
I went a bit overboard with that tranquiliser I gave him.
- The what? - A tranq Relu was feeling off and needed my help.
- What, he had a toothache? - No, no.
Panic attacks.
So I gave him a sedative.
What panic, man? Panic attacks.
Or so he said Well, not said exactly he just told me how he felt and I gave - Bye! Is someone picking you up? - My dad should've, but He didn't show? He didn't show? Can you find your way home? - On foot? - No, by car.
Oh, sure.
Hop in.
What the - are you crazy?! Stop, man!! Let him go! Get off him, dad! - Let him go! - Let go of him! - Are you OK, dad? - Get back in the car! Wait, my bag! Wait, my bag! Wait, my bag! Might be better if you didn't tell your mom about this.
-That you forgot to pick me up? -No.
The other thing.
- That you beat that man up? - I didn't beat him up.
I restrained him.
I saw him talking to you and I thought - I didn't mean to - OK, I won't tell mom.
- I didn't mean to - OK, I won't tell mom.
-And about forgetting to pick you up -That either.
What the? - Go to your room.
- What happened? -Do as I said.
-Go on.
- Have you lost it?! - Yes, I have.
You didn't come home 'cause you crashed the car? - That's right.
- Is it? And when your son got hit in the eye with a cracker and I had to take him to the ER on my own, you were at work? - We went over this.
- Tell me again! I'm dumb, I forgot! - On Chuckie's birthday I was - What about these? Don't even try telling me you wanted to surprise me! Speak! If you're so sly, hoarding gold in our home why didn't I get so much as a ring? Who were they for? They're mine.
What, pops? What, pops? -They're mine.
-As if I'd buy that! Buy it or don't, I couldn't give a shit.
Do pick them up and put them back.
How did you get the money to buy all this gold? Who said I bought it? When you took me in, I sold my bed-sit in Dristor.
A pawn shop owner gave me these for it and some cash that I drank away.
I couldn't drink these away so far.
So why are you sitting on this gold instead of pitching in around here? The water bill, the gas bill?! There! That's my gas contribution.
As I've told you this morning, lately, you've been screwing up.
And this ain't a stash house, sonny.
If the cops raid you, you're toast.
Hello? Sabin? Yeah.
Something urgent came up.
No, I had some business.
So, did you find him? No, I had some business.
So, did you find him? Hey, can you do me a real favour? Don't tell Nico I had to clear out, I'm not in the mood for a fight.
What the hell, man, you know me.
Chill.
- OK, bye.
- Ciao, bye.
Still, to be fair, it's Relster's word against the Doctor's.
Still, to be fair, it's Relster's word against the Doctor's.
He's just the sort who'd sell his mom to save his bacon.
I don't buy his story about Relu getting panicky.
How he tricked Relu, drugged him and all that.
Did you notice anything different about Relu today? Give me a hint.
His car was smashed End of episode 3

Thank you! No, no, don't block it.
Thank you! This time we both heard where he's at, Relu.
Yeah, I'll flush him out.
Don't worry.
Sabin's going with you.
I shudder to think of the gossip, if the neighbors hear us! Sorry, what? Nothing.
The problem is that it's ancient, all the seals are rusty.
Not even changing them, and the hose as well it doesn't have much use left.
Do you have an 18-millimetre wrench? Do you have an 18-millimetre wrench? Do you have one? An 18-mill? What does it look like? A bit bigger than this 16-mill and smaller than this 20-mill.
Let me check my husband's tools, in the closet.
What's up, Pops? What's up, Pops? Did you find it? Just give me a minute please.
Just give me a minute please.
Jesus, a classy joint! Can't complain.
I figured, if we get bored, we can try the ice rink or a movie.
If we get bored? If we get bored? If I turn out to be too dumb and boring, is what you mean at least you got to see a movie.
You'd make sure I'm busy gorging on popcorn.
Then you lose my number and you're off the hook, huh? Something like that.
We'd at least make out a bit during the movie? -Maybe.
Just a bit.
-'Cause you're a gentleman at heart.
No, but I'd probably pick a movie I like so I'd be more focused on it.
Rather than on the monkey next to you! No, you're OK.
I'm just a movie buff, so No, you're OK.
I'm just a movie buff, so -OK, am I? -Yes.
More than OK! - Do you want a soda? A falafel? - Soda? Are you sure? Don't you think that's a bit forward? Sorry.
I actually meant to wait half an hour then get you in the can for a quickie.
There is that, I guess I even showered, for nothing.
I usually like to go au naturel.

I'll check the slot machines upstairs.
You stay here, watch the exits! I'll check the slot machines upstairs.
You stay here, watch the exits! - Call me if you see him.
- Sure, man.
Call me, are we clear? Yes, Relster, crystal.
How thick do you think I am? - Can you ask me something? - Yes.
You're asking if you can ask, or do ya wanna ask me something? I've got this friend whose boyfriend was in your class and he says your dad's a Woman? Dwarf? Alien? Woman? Dwarf? Alien? A mobster.
-Yeah.
-Yeah?! Just this morning, over cereal, he put a ninja sword through two guys.
Blood everywhere, big bits of brain in my milk -Tastes like aspic! -You're off your rocker.
So what's up with you working with my dad? A classy guy like you, driving a cab?! There's a name for this, you know? The Electra Complex.
There's a name for this, you know? The Electra Complex.
Meaning I'm a busybody? Do you know Jung? He was a great psychiatrist, the founder of psychoanalysis.
- So he postulated - He what? He said that mother and child are locked in a psychosexual competition to lay claim to the dad.
Gross! And not true - they're both thorns in my side.
Gross! And not true - they're both thorns in my side.
And if you carry this complex around during your psychosexual development you'll end up with a fixation on your dad shown by your sexual mate's likeness to your dad, be it real or desired.
In our case, you want him to be a cabbie, like your dad.
This Jung guy's theory doesn't apply to our case.
This Jung guy's theory doesn't apply to our case.
So you're contradicting Jung? First of all, dad's a wimp and no way would I have you be like him! Secondly, you're not my sexual mate.
Think on that while I go to the can.
Guv' Teddy! Sorry for barging in, you do seem quite busy.
Can we have a chat? Won't take a second.
You're quite the skirt-chaser, Teddy! My kid this morning.
Another in the afternoon.
Tonight you'll go for thirds, huh? -Like a self-respecting man about town.
-Mister Relu -Like a self-respecting man about town.
-Mister Relu Let's not interrupt each other.
It's not nice.
Just a thought.
Agreed? Let's be civil.
Look here.
Since you wanna check in and report back to your dad this scumbag's in here somewhere.
If the girl doesn't tire you out, maybe you can look around for him.
- If you spot him, call me.
- OK.
One other thing.
One other thing.
As for our chat this morning about little about Magda.
Did you reconsider? Take a guess! No! No, no, no! I got my dick wet just now, right here in the can! Super! Super! What's less super is that you're 8.
5 grand in the hole.
Boss, like I told Relu the other day If I get lucky, all I need is 2-3 days, and get a load of this If I get lucky, all I need is 2-3 days, and get a load of this - When was this? - Yesterday.
At my office.
Doc, sure you're not talking out of your ass? You can ask Relu.
He came by my office, we shot the bull for half an hour and he said he'd give me 2 or 3 more days.
Relu said that? - Yes! Why don't you just ask him? - I did.
- So? - He said you weren't even there.
- What?! - You gave us the slip.
- What?! - You gave us the slip.
Maybe he forgot.
I went a bit overboard with that tranquiliser I gave him.
- The what? - A tranq Relu was feeling off and needed my help.
- What, he had a toothache? - No, no.
Panic attacks.
So I gave him a sedative.
What panic, man? Panic attacks.
Or so he said Well, not said exactly he just told me how he felt and I gave - Bye! Is someone picking you up? - My dad should've, but He didn't show? He didn't show? Can you find your way home? - On foot? - No, by car.
Oh, sure.
Hop in.
What the - are you crazy?! Stop, man!! Let him go! Get off him, dad! - Let him go! - Let go of him! - Are you OK, dad? - Get back in the car! Wait, my bag! Wait, my bag! Wait, my bag! Might be better if you didn't tell your mom about this.
-That you forgot to pick me up? -No.
The other thing.
- That you beat that man up? - I didn't beat him up.
I restrained him.
I saw him talking to you and I thought - I didn't mean to - OK, I won't tell mom.
- I didn't mean to - OK, I won't tell mom.
-And about forgetting to pick you up -That either.
What the? - Go to your room.
- What happened? -Do as I said.
-Go on.
- Have you lost it?! - Yes, I have.
You didn't come home 'cause you crashed the car? - That's right.
- Is it? And when your son got hit in the eye with a cracker and I had to take him to the ER on my own, you were at work? - We went over this.
- Tell me again! I'm dumb, I forgot! - On Chuckie's birthday I was - What about these? Don't even try telling me you wanted to surprise me! Speak! If you're so sly, hoarding gold in our home why didn't I get so much as a ring? Who were they for? They're mine.
What, pops? What, pops? -They're mine.
-As if I'd buy that! Buy it or don't, I couldn't give a shit.
Do pick them up and put them back.
How did you get the money to buy all this gold? Who said I bought it? When you took me in, I sold my bed-sit in Dristor.
A pawn shop owner gave me these for it and some cash that I drank away.
I couldn't drink these away so far.
So why are you sitting on this gold instead of pitching in around here? The water bill, the gas bill?! There! That's my gas contribution.
As I've told you this morning, lately, you've been screwing up.
And this ain't a stash house, sonny.
If the cops raid you, you're toast.
Hello? Sabin? Yeah.
Something urgent came up.
No, I had some business.
So, did you find him? No, I had some business.
So, did you find him? Hey, can you do me a real favour? Don't tell Nico I had to clear out, I'm not in the mood for a fight.
What the hell, man, you know me.
Chill.
- OK, bye.
- Ciao, bye.
Still, to be fair, it's Relster's word against the Doctor's.
Still, to be fair, it's Relster's word against the Doctor's.
He's just the sort who'd sell his mom to save his bacon.
I don't buy his story about Relu getting panicky.
How he tricked Relu, drugged him and all that.
Did you notice anything different about Relu today? Give me a hint.
His car was smashed End of episode 3
