["Mr. Sandman" by The Chordettes playing]
Mr. Sandman ♪
Bring me a dream ♪
[woman] Our wonderful guest today
is a man who is self-made,
a man from the zeroes generation.
He's running for mayor of a small island,
he's a businessman,
a father, a husband, a friend,
and he's earned the love
of everyone in his community.
And most importantly, their respect.
Please turn on your magic beam ♪
Mr. Sandman bring me a dream ♪
[woman] We'll talk to him
about his candidacy
and we'll get to know him a lot better.
Good evening, Fanis.
Good evening to you and your listeners.
Fanis, let's start
with the basics, shall we?
What made you decide to run for mayor?
I've been thinking about it for a while.
And I am aware that it may be stressful
due to my other job, alas,
both in my life and in my work,
I try to find clever ways
to combine everything efficiently,
depending on the circumstances.
I'm very grateful
for all the support I have at home
from my loving family.
They mean the world to me.
Everything I do, I do for them.
I've been patient with you both,
and for some reason,
you think I'm a stupid idiot.
Now you've really crossed the line.
All this ends now!
You have no right
to behave, or treat us like this.
And as long as you live
in this house, you'll do what I say.
You got it?
Okay!
- Why were you in Corfu?
- I told you, I went to a party.
- With whom?
- [Klelia] By myself.
- You should've told us.
- You wouldn't have let me.
- Who did you go with?
- I said by myself, aren't you listening?
What kind of party was it?
EDM. Electronic dance underground party.
It's a party with electronic music.
It was organized by my friends.
You're going to get tested
for COVID first thing tomorrow morning.
How could you be so stupid?
You put us at risk!
Do you not care?
I was careful. Don't worry.
- Have you been to one before?
- [Klelia] Yes.
Were there drugs?
- Don't worry, I didn't do any.
- Can I please go now?
No.
This doesn't even concern me.
What am I doing here?
If I'm here my health is at risk.
If Klelia's got COVID
and I catch it, I could die.
Shut up!
Enough!
Your father and I have admitted
that we have made some mistakes.
But that doesn't mean
you have to keep treating us like this.
What else do you expect us to do?
I said I was sorry. Can we just let it go?
- Have you met someone else?
- No.
And you think it's okay, lying to Thanos
and starting
your first relationship like this?
So
Whether you like it or not,
we'll be eating as a family.
Just like we used to do.
And this is for the both of you,
no one gets to leave this house
until I know
where you're going at all times!
Are we clear?
Okay.
- You want to know what we're doing?
- Yeah.
So if I wanted to go make out
with Spyros, I have to tell you now?
What's that about?
You want us to be honest,
but you don't want to hear
about certain things.
Antonis, you don't need
to be neither provocative, nor vulgar.
I wasn't being vulgar.
I'm trying to understand
what you want us to do!
Talk to us. That's all.
I told you something
very personal about me,
you acted like you didn't hear anything.
Now isn't that vulgar?
What did you expect? A round of applause?
Tell me what you want
me to do and I'll do it.
Fanis
Because I'm sick
of being the asshole around this place.
Tell me, Antonis!
What do you expect me to do
now that you're gay?
Did I kick you out of the house?
Did I hit you? Did I say bad things, huh?
Did I call you names?
Should I invite
the town over for a celebration?
How cool do you want me to be?
I'm not one to point my finger at others
and I don't pretend to be someone else.
What you see is what you get.
[somber music playing]
During our family meals,
we discuss openly,
freely, calmly,
with no disposition for criticism.
It's a way of connecting meaningfully.
CHAPTER V - THE FAMILY
The essential thing
is that there is no hypocrisy.
You're negative.
We'll have you tested again
in two days, but I think you'll be fine.
Thank you.
Hi, Klelia.
[door opens]
Orestis, welcome.
Come in.
[dog whines]
Come on, Marika.
[choir singing]
[in Greek] Three o' clock ♪
In the morning ♪
I'll come and wake you up ♪
To enjoy you
Without your mother knowing ♪
I'll come out and talk to you ♪
[in English] Bravo.
[music stops]
So, tomorrow at noon.
Antonis?
- Isn't your sister coming?
- I'm not really sure.
Is she alright?
- Yeah.
- She hasn't shown up here in three days.
If she isn't coming back,
I'd like to know.
I'll tell her.
["Allegro from Concerto for Mandolin,
Strings and Harpsichord by Vivaldi" plays]
Yeah, I'm very proud of her,
because she really is beautiful,
kind, clever, and a talented girl.
And I trust her implicitly.
I have the typical concerns
with my daughter.
I'm sorry to say, but I'm very strict
and arrant in regard to her.
- Hello.
- [Klelia] Hi.
You could say this is a tad strange.
Yes, I know
but I didn't know how else to contact you.
I don't have your number,
you weren't at school
the other day, yesterday, or today.
- I wanted to talk without anyone around.
- I wasn't feeling well.
I'm not well either.
I wanted to talk things over.
That's why I
I don't follow people around normally.
- You haven't followed anyone before?
- No.
I do it all the time.
At your age, it's cute.
At my age, it's a little weird.
You're being way too strict.
[sighs] Look, Klelia. Listen
I want to apologize about Corfu.
- I didn't want to let myself go
- Cut the bullshit.
You didn't "let yourself go."
I did and I was uncomfortable.
Don't feel bad or guilty,
or whatever it is
someone in your shoes would feel.
I like you
and I am fully aware of what I did.
- You're not.
- Well, you're wrong.
I hit on you, that is clear.
You're not to blame for any of this.
I am because I lead you on.
With the boat trips,
the swimming, the book I gave you
Are you afraid you'll get in trouble?
Yeah. That too.
Do you have any feelings for me?
[pensive music playing]
Honestly.
Even if I do, you know
- It's impossible for us.
- [Klelia] I get it.
I don't like it, but I do get it.
It doesn't change how we feel.
I think it's best to forget
whatever occurred and move on.
If you think that would help us.
So you drove out here,
following me, just to apologize to me?
Yeah.
For hitting on you so hard?
[laughs]
You may want to know
I really enjoyed that night
with you and I don't regret anything.
And no need to keep following me.
[Fanis] Well, yeah, I have a soft spot
for my daughter. What can I say?
What father isn't crazy
about his daughter? [laughs]
But all jokes aside,
um
Yeah, I'm very proud of her,
because she really is beautiful,
kind, clever and a talented girl.
And I trust her implicitly.
Not that I'm not afraid.
I'm terrified! [laughs]
I dread the idea
of who she'll date, fall in love with.
Way to go, Fanis.
[Fanis] Unfortunately,
I have the typical concerns
with my daughter.
I'm sorry to say but I'm very strict
and arrant in regard to her.
["Clearly" by Sølvin Refvik playing]
[in Greek] We got a new rooster
For our hen house ♪
With pretty wings and a puffy tail ♪
He comes and goes
And pinches our chicks ♪
[in English] No, no, no! Enough.
Klelia, enough with the piano pedal.
You must add emotion
to your playing, okay?
And children, a bit more energy!
Let's go.
One, two, three, and
[in Greek] We got a new rooster
For our hen house ♪
With pretty wings and a puffy tail ♪
He comes and goes
And pinches our chicks ♪
And he shouts
"Cock-a-doodle-doo" so loud ♪
Little rooster, little rooster ♪
Always itching for a fight ♪
My little rooster acting all tough ♪
Cock-a-cock-a-cock-a-doodle-do ♪
Cock-a-doodle-do ♪
[in English] Uh, Sofia
has always stood by my side
in every decision.
[ominous music playing]
She does support me greatly.
And when she sees
how happy me and the kids are,
she's happy too.
- I don't want you running for mayor.
- Too late.
It will be dangerous
for the kids if things get worse.
When I get elected, things will be easier.
You're wrong. [sighs]
Relax, the kids will be in Athens.
They'll be far away.
I'm going to leave as well.
[Fanis] You out of pills again?
Yeah.
I'll ask Michalis to get me a box.
I can have them shipped from Athens.
And we've agreed
that you should stop taking them.
This isn't the right moment for that.
- Do you see the doctor often?
- When I need to.
I don't want you to get hurt again.
Oh, yeah?
[Fanis] Yeah.
I don't like it that you meet him alone.
Do you know
how many things you do that I don't like?
[calm piano music playing]
If there's something going on
with him, I'd like you to tell me.
You'd know. Don't lose sleep over it.
Tell Charalambos
he's going to take more work on.
That's what he's asking for.
That's why he's blackmailing you.
Give it to him.
Increase his pay and give him
the freedom he wants to have.
He's going to expose all of us.
Charalambos is who he is.
But he'll accept the offer
and take the burden off your shoulders.
They know him
and they trust in him.
And he's the one they'll be asking for.
And at some point
Once I'm mayor, everything will be easier.
Marriage,
at a certain point,
becomes kind of like a collaboration.
Sofia and I are very close.
I know that she puts mine
and our kids' needs before her own.
I'll give her that.
She is the best wife.
I adore her. She's everything to me.
It's the last one.
Thank you.
They're not going to save you.
- Things at home are tough
- It has and always will be.
You're set in your ways
because it's convenient.
It's pathetic we keep repeating ourselves.
It is. [sighs]
I can't do this. It's wrong.
It's a mistake.
I can't be your buddy, or your therapist,
or the guy you run to
whenever you feel bad.
Forget it.
- But I thought
- No, don't think.
I can't deal with it and you know that.
The way you settle things at home
with Fanis, you do the same to me.
I don't blame you.
I asked for it.
I thought this would be
the best way for us to keep in touch
but I can't keep doing this.
It's not good for me.
Sorry.
[Fanis] There are times that every man
may feel alone
and weak.
And he can't make it through,
and he backs down.
I think it's the easy way out,
when something is beyond you,
beyond what you can do.
Fortunately, Sophia and I,
we give each other our strength
and overcome obstacles together.
[somber music playing]
[door shuts]
Alright.
Let's say that I've messed up some things.
What would you do if you were me?
Antonis?
Hey, I'm talking to you!
I would've never screwed up
the way you did.
Oh, yeah? I hope not.
You asking for some fatherly advice?
I'm asking you for a favor.
You have to help me so I can help you.
I have no idea how to do that.
Look.
From what I've gathered,
you and Spyros
have something going on, I think.
You don't think it, Dad.
You know it very well
and you made sure
to talk to his father about it.
These problems are because of you.
Don't pretend to be a good dad now.
If you wanted to help,
you'd have done it differently.
I want to help you.
You don't. You want me
to be something else.
- That's not helping anybody
- I care about you.
Do you care?
I think you don't give a shit about me.
You're just like Spyros' father,
only you don't beat me.
I've had enough
of this conversation with you, alright?
Antonis?
- Antonis, wait a minute.
- Leave me alone!
Antonis, just listen to me.
Antonis.
Antonis, wait!
Antonis!
Do you have any of those pills?
Come on, where do you keep them?
Where do you keep them, God damn it?
If we all take one
it'll be easier for Dad
and he won't have any problems.
We'll all be catatonic, like you.
- Relax.
- We'll forget about our issues.
Give me them!
Give me them! How do you want me to be?
- Antonis!
- Tell me!
I'll take it, I'll be comatose,
just like you. Tell me how I should be.
[crying]
[Fanis] My son is an outgoing kid.
He has a girlfriend,
he's popular with all the girls.
You know how things are at that age.
We were all young once.
I imagine
that a really good father, like me
will try to find the right way
for his son not to ever suffer.
To make his life a bit easier for him.
- I'm off.
- Sit down, let's have a chat.
I've got Yianna waiting.
You don't want to go, so why bother?
I haven't been drinking.
I just want to talk.
Just a few minutes, that's all.
I've been hard on you, son.
And with your mother.
It was wrong of me
to involve you in my businesses
but I was foolish
and I wanted to keep you close.
Done? May I go?
I want what's best for you.
Even if I don't agree.
And if you think it's best to leave Yianna
and spend your time with Antonis, then
just see where it goes.
Do you want to go to college?
I don't know.
I've put some money aside
from my business with Fanis.
It's enough for you
to go to Athens or Italy.
You need to get out of here.
Get a taste of life.
It's tough, but you need to do it.
I'll leave your mother
and then I'll move out of the house.
I don't mind admitting
that I've fucked up, Spyros.
Haven't I?
[Fanis] I don't know
whether I'm a good father or not.
I don't know if someone can change.
To be honest, I don't think they can.
There's a difference between
what we should be and what we really are.
- I'm off.
- Sit down, let's talk.
- Yianna is waiting.
- Let her wait, then!
You only want to have one woman in life?
You're young and hot-blooded,
you need to try them all.
No need for anyone to know about it.
The more women, the better, Spyros.
Just like a rooster.
You think at your age
I was only sleeping with your mother?
I know things got heated the other day.
My fault. I admit that.
Your mother overreacts, she's a woman.
But deep down, there's love there.
We have our little fights,
but that's how all couples are.
I told you all about my job because,
I want you to know what it is I do
and who I do it for.
I didn't ask you to.
And what do you plan
on doing with your life?
Going to college?
I don't know.
You think there'll be
a university waiting for you?
Your whole life is right here, Spyros.
And soon your wife
and kids will be here too.
How will you provide?
I lined up a job that brings money.
I don't care about your business
and don't involve me ever again.
You better keep that boy close,
but then let that disgusting homo
burn in the depths of hell!
And we'll make
all our money off those people.
[door shuts]
[ominous music playing]
[ominous music continues]
[heavy breathing]
[gunshot sounds]
[birds flying away]
I missed you.
I don't have much time.
Can I shoot?
You better not.
Give it here.
I missed you too.
I'm holding a gun, you better watch it.
It's dangerous.
It suits you.

Okay, okay, let's relax
and let's start from the beginning.
You're tortured by what you feel,
but you can't really express it?
Yeah.
Him having a girlfriend
leaves you feeling like less of a man.
Something like that.
Despite us having sex and me telling you
that you are quite the man.
- Yeah.
- Your hair's funny.
Can we drop this, please?
You don't even know who I'm talking about.
I'm tipsy, I shouldn't be telling you
about all this.
I don't care who.
I want to figure out your way of thinking.
Not happening.
So you're jealous
of someone who's terribly unhappy.
Why is he unhappy?
Because he wants you but he's with a girl.
Yeah, because he can.
Mm, you could also do that.
I wish he didn't want to,
that he was more like me.
That he would stop caring
about everyone and we could go far away.
So you're sad because he's a coward.
Huh?
And it's hard for you,
because you don't want to be a coward.
And you regret
sharing your truth with your parents,
and you'd prefer no one knew anything
so you act like a hot,
macho, straight man.
That could be.
Dummy.
That's not love. That's rivalry.
What's the difference?
If you were really in love with him,
you'd put yourself in his shoes
and understand his suffering.
You'd be sorry for him
and you'd try to help him,
not compete with him.
Man, relationships are tough.
I don't understand shit.
All these things
you're saying are so confusing.
It's too confusing and analytical.
You have no idea,
that's why you say this shit.
He's with you because he's definitely gay
and because you're such a great guy.
Don't you see? Anybody,
guy or girl, would want to be with you.
Why don't you study to be a psychiatrist?
I'm considering it.
Will you help me finish this fucking song?
I don't like the way I am.
And I don't like the way I am either.
I'd like to be pretty, like your sister.
I'm not.
But I do like talking openly with you.
It's moments like these
that make me want to be with you.
[laughs] No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Otherwise, I'll be crying in self-pity
and be the one talking all that crap.
Besides, I'm becoming a psychiatrist
so I can help people like you, okay?
You think I'll ever be fixed?
If we both study in Athens,
want to be roommates?
[grunting]
- Why baby? Huh?
- You know why.
I can't. There's a lot on my mind.
You always have something on your mind
these days and you can't
- I don't get that.
- What don't you get? Sex?
What's wrong?
I want to know.
Tell me what the fuck is happening here.
It's you who has the problem, not me
- I don't have a problem.
- You do.
I don't have a problem.
Then why can't you get it up?
Don't you like me?
Huh?
Spyros!
All I know
is that if a guy can't get it up
it's because he doesn't like the girl,
or because he lacks
the strength to be a real man.
[gasps]
[dramatic ominous music playing]
Don't you dare
speak to me like that again!
Do you understand?
Go to hell.
[woman 1] Yeah,
my brother had a great time.
I can see you on Saturday if you want to.
I mean, you can get there at like 2:00.
[Yianna] That sounds like a lot of fun.
- Hello, Miss Maria!
- Hi, girls.
- Yianna?
- Yeah?
- Come here.
- One moment, loves.
Yeah?
What happened to you?
Oh, yeah!
Oh, no, my mistake, I just fell.
- No, you didn't.
- No, really. I'm clumsy!
You didn't fall!
It was an accident.
He didn't mean it. It was just one time.
Please don't, Miss Maria.
[sighs] Don't say anything to him.
It's no big deal really, though.
No. Please, don't.
I fell off the bike.
Yeah?
See ya!
[ominous music continues]
[thud]
If you touch that girl again,
forget about me.
You'll not turn out like him.
That's who you're with, though.
[dramatic violin music playing]
[assistant] Corfu City Hall called
to let us know about their orchestra.
What orchestra?
The one in Corfu. Didn't you arrange
for the maestro to meet with them?
With Orestis?
Yes. They met with the manager,
and he confirmed that they'd play for us.
Also, we got a call from Athens,
they want you to confirm the interview.
And do you want me to mail the invoices?
Wait, when did you say
Orestis was in Corfu?
[assistant] A few days ago, I think.
I wrote it down.
Find me the exact date
and where he stayed.
- [assistant] Where he stayed?
- In which hotel.
[assistant] I'm not sure where he stayed
but I can just give him a call.
[Fanis] No, that's okay.
It doesn't Uh, mail those invoices.
[in Greek] ♪ Every morning
Minas and I would dream ♪
That we sailed all the way to Jamaica ♪
And we sailed the seas, my old love ♪
And then, in the evening
Drunk in a tavern ♪
I would drink you up, my little girl ♪
Sip by sip, like wine ♪
[in English] Bravo! Bravo, bravo, bravo!
Bravo!
I really don't know
what to say. I'm speechless.
I didn't know you'd progressed so much.
I just dropped by to say that
I got a call from Corfu and they told me
that the Mikis Theodorakis Symphony
will take part
with all of you in our festival.
Thanks to Orestis,
our island will reclaim its character.
I will personally see to it
that important people and officials
will visit our island from Athens
and help promote it.
Honestly, I don't know what to say. Ah
I'm amazed. Astonished. [laughs]
Well, um, I won't keep you all.
Orestis,
got a minute?
Yeah, of course.
Once more, from the start. Okay?
[piano music playing]
How are you doing, man? Long time no see.
- Fine, we're making progress. All is well.
- Well done.
You're doing excellent work.
When will you come by
for dinner, so we can talk, mm?
Actually, I like going home early
in the evenings to unwind and relax.
Fine, just pick a night that works
for you and we'll make it happen.
We'll have some wine.
It will make Sofia happy.
She appreciates you.
Okay. Well, I'll be in touch.
I better go inside,
we have to continue on.
We're doing an amazing job
with the music festival on the island.
I've got a guy onboard
who has somehow managed
to change the entire island's aesthetics.
I'm very proud of him.
I would even say that now,
we're very good friends.
["Lel Ilima" by Mahi Beamer playing]
Where would she put it?
Just how on earth did she hide it so well?
Mom?
- Yeah.
- What are you looking for?
Nothing. My brooch. My yia-yia's heirloom.
But you're all such lost souls here
that a person can't even find
a piece of jewelry in their own house.
Mom?
- You can't even hide in this place.
- What are you doing?
I'm not allowed to relax a little?
Mom, we're at the table already,
are you coming?
- Are you smoking?
- Uh
Uh, what?
[Haris] Listen, Sofia, honey.
I can't stand your family
and all your problems anymore.
It's my fault,
but on the other hand, at my age,
I frankly just don't really give a shit.
I'm too nervous
about singing at the festival,
so I thought I'd smoke
a joint to calm me down a bit.
Do you know how long
it took me to find this?
Don't you ruin it for me.
Maybe I wouldn't have made
so many mistakes
if you were chill when I was younger.
Well, I wasn't,
so what do you want me to say?
Get over it, you're a grown woman now.
We're at the table.
Come if you want.
And we have guests.
Well, if we have people over, then
let the games begin.
- [Fanis] What a tornado.
- [Sofia] Unimaginable.
We had broken windows, doors.
[Fanis] It even ripped off the railings.
Thank God no one got hurt.
[Sofia] Thank God,
thank God. I was so scared.
- Hello.
- Oh, welcome.
- [Sofia] Hi, Thanos, my boy.
- I'm so sorry I'm late.
Have you eaten?
- Yeah, thanks.
- Okay.
- Come, Thanos, sit.
- Thank you.
Uh, wine?
- Yeah, sure.
- Hi, Thanos.
Thanos is finishing
medical school this year.
Yes, I know. The kids shared that with me.
We were talking about the festival
and how it's coming along.
What I hear from Klelia,
it's coming along well.
[Fanis] Yeah. [laughs]
Orestis went to Corfu
and arranged for the city's orchestra
to come and play here.
You were in Corfu?
- Yeah.
- When?
Uh, a few days ago.
This is going to be
such an amazing festival.
To tell you the truth,
I'm very, very nervous,
but on the other hand,
I'm so proud of all the talent
of my grandchildren.
And, okay, maybe I'm proud of myself too.
[laughs] You'll do great, Grandma.
Have you been drinking?
Oh, just a little wine, my love.
If all goes well, we should be ready
in a few weeks to perform.
We have two choirs,
we have groups coming from abroad,
we have speakers playing music
on every street across the island.
Overall, as long as the festival lasts,
I want music everywhere.
That's great.
I think it would be interesting
to have several bands
playing music throughout the island.
Even having the entire orchestra
on a platform
that we can float out to sea.
Excellent!
- Very good!
- Yeah.
- [Thanos] Very good.
- Very nice, yes.
Then we have Antonis' band,
the guys who play electronic music,
there's Klelia with the orchestra,
and, of course, Miss Haris, who,
I believe will definitely steal the show.
Of course.
Stop it. Kind of you to say that.
[inhales deeply] Are you done?
Should we bring out dessert?
- Orestis?
- [Orestis] Mm?
Do you plan on going back
to Athens after all this?
Yeah, I think so. I hadn't thought of it.
- Is there someone waiting for you?
- What's with all these prying questions?
[Fanis] I didn't mean to be rude.
I only wanted to ask Orestis
if he wants to invite someone.
Maybe he's in a relationship.
Maybe he would like to bring someone over.
He's all by himself on the island.
I like it,
but I will keep that in mind.
Thank you.
Orestis
I wanted you to come over tonight
because I feel grateful for you,
and I mean it.
Despite how things are, you've managed
to lift the spirits
of the people on this island.
And, you know, this makes me think that,
if I do happen to get elected,
I won't be such a bad mayor after all.
You'll definitely get elected,
Mr. Fanis. And you'll be great.
Cheers.
Yes, cheers.
Cheers.
What about dessert?
I'm out of water.
Yeah, it's in the fridge if you want.
- May I?
- Yeah.
How are you?
Fine.
That's good.
Don't drink any more wine.
Why?
He knows I've been to Corfu.
I think he called you over tonight
to see if there's something going on.
[clicks tongue]
Bye.

I missed you.
Yeah, me too.
I think I'm falling in love with you.
Are you sure that's a good idea?
Why, do you think it's not?
No.
What was that about?
That's not the reaction I expected.
No, I
Forget it. It was stupid. I take it back.
No, don't take it back, Thanos.
What's going on? What's with you?
What do you think?
I'm confused. I'm burnt out.
I don't know
what the fuck I'm doing anymore.
Do you like someone else?
Or is it Orestis?
The maestro?
Are you crazy?
You can't be serious.
He's much older.
- Seriously?
- No, um I'd get it if you did.
You're so off the mark, Thanos.
You don't know me at all.
It wouldn't bother me.
I don't care if it would bother you.
- I care that you even think of it.
- Why? Is it so wrong?
Relax,
I'm just messing with you.
I wanted to see how you'd react.
I don't appreciate your jokes.
I'm glad to hear it.
I feel like shit
with all that's going on at home.
I want to leave
this fucking place but I can't.
Then why does it seem
that everything is fine?
[Fanis] My daughter is an incredibly
talented pianist, and if all goes well,
she'll study at the Athens' Conservatory.
She's dating a young doctor,
she's doing very well,
and I am a
[eerie ominous music playing]
very proud father.
[Orestis] Why are you here?
I'm not drunk
and I didn't come to hit on you.
Klelia, what is it now?
I just came here to say
that I don't like what's going on at all.
- This isn't fair.
- No, it is not.
This needs to stop.
You want me in trouble?
Do you want to fuck up
my entire life, is that it?
- What the fuck do you want me to do?
- Leave here.
I'm in love with you
and I think I will be
for a very long time.
It'd be easier for me
if you just left here.
[somber music playing]
Okay.
Let me see what I can do about it.
Goodnight.
[door opens]
[door shuts]
We're not open.
I know.
Why do you think I came at this hour?
Because you didn't want to be seen
going into the bad guy's premises.
You're not exactly
the best person in the world, Charalambos.
[laughs]
I listened to your interview
the other day.
Well said.
Very authentic.
Did you go to Athens?
Yeah, for business.
Go on.
I want us to maintain our partnership
and put all of our problems behind us.
I'd like for you to be in charge
of every delivery from here on out.
- I do that anyway.
- Yeah.
But now you'll have a bigger cut.
Isn't that what you wanted?
You wanted to get rid of me.
How come?
Listen,
eventually I'll have to back out,
and perhaps, with the way
things are going,
you'll have more space.
Don't you have enough fronts already?
[scoffs]
You know the job well.
You know the suppliers,
the territories, and how to maneuver.
What do you say?
I can't on my own.
- I need help.
- You will.
From Parga.
You'll go every week
and stay for a few days.
The further, the better.
You'll get to see your little mistress.
How does that sound, hm?
I want more money up front.
You'll stop paying me
installments for the tavern.
I'll arrange it with my accountant
and the deed will go to your wife,
your son, and yourself.
[laughs]
Oh, Charalambos [laughs]
Under one condition.
You keep the boys out of this completely.
My son doesn't talk.
Your son is hanging around an awful lot
with my son. You think I like that?
I've been clear
and you went and ran your mouth.
Don't worry about my son.
I'll worry as long
as he's fooling around with my son.
[grunts]
Don't you dare talk like that
about my kid again, asshole,
because I'll put you all
in the ground, got it?
How about I spill the beans,
and then we'll see
what you talk about in your interviews.
Who's got the most to lose? You or me?
Do we have a deal?
I saw your daughter.
At the other end of the island.
I was driving through.
The teacher was there too.
Stop worrying about my family
and take care of yours.
Do we have a deal?
[door shuts]
[Fanis] A society will always
have problems, that's the law of nature.
So, if I get elected,
I would like to fix these problems.
At the very least, balance the obstacles
for the good of everyone.
That's why I want the people to trust me
and that's why I want their vote.
[insects chirping]
[heavy breathing]
[Fanis] You know on the island
we've developed a pact
where we support each other.
We live in such a morbid,
hypocritical, gloomy world,
that if we don't have each other's backs,
so then, what do we have?
We have nothing.

Mr. Sandman ♪
Bring me a dream ♪
Make him the cutest
That I've ever seen ♪
Give him two lips
Like roses and clover ♪
[Fanis] That's why I'm telling you
that the only solution is truth and unity.
Only through unity
can we bring about
all the changes that we want in our lives.
That's what I'll fight for.
We need to change the status quo
and bring a fresh, creative, innovative,
and new way of thinking and behavior.
Because that's the only way
to be less fearful
and to have no more injustice.
