Kratki pregled

Transkripcija
| Santiago | Daj, sve da ću te pitati pa nikako. |
|---|---|
| Marin | Reci! |
| Santiago | Onda, stoji li naš plan da ideš sa mnom u SAD za Novu godinu? |
| Marin | Da stoji li! Jedva čekam. |
| Santiago | Eh, super! Nego, kad planiraš srediti vizu? |
| Marin | Srećom proces više nije kompliciran. Sve radi online. Ne moram više u Zagreb. Ne moram ići na razgovor. Samo moram platiti troškove vize i popuniti online formulare. |
| Santiago | Super, jedna briga manje. A što ćeš s poslom? Hoće li Marko sve preuzeti na sebe? |
| Marin | Hoće, hoće. Marko je zakon! On je moja desna ruka. |
| Santiago | Nema do Marka! |
| Marin | Imamo dogovor, njemu uvijek dam tri tjedna slobodno tijekom ljeta kad je luda kuća, a ja zimi uzmem slobodno kad nema toliko posla. |
| Santiago | To je pošteno, ali ovo je ipak dva mjeseca da te neće biti. |
| Marin | Istina, ali sad kada sam stao na noge mogu si to dopustiti. A i dogovorili smo se da ću ga platiti duplo dok me nema. On je sretan, nema previše posla, a bolja zarada. |
| Santiago | Istina… A baš si dobar šef! |
| Marin | Moram! Bez njega sam k’o muha bez glave! |
