Early morning in the café. At the same minute every day, a neat man in a blue shirt comes in and walks to the table by the window. Petra nods at him and whispers. His usual order is tea without sugar, one bread roll and the bill. You copy that order exactly; coffee is mentioned only while asking about the menu prices.

Petra
Podívejte: stůl číslo tři. Ten pán je tady každé ráno.
Look: table number three. That gentleman is here every morning.
A stůl číslo jedna?
And table number one?

He climbs up onto his chair.
He drops the exact money on the table and hurries to the door.

Moc se bojí koček.
He's very, very afraid of cats.

A jeho pero?
And his pen?

The pen? It's Mourek's now.
