Movie quotes

  • (..) Clean up the dishes. I'm going to put Pomnenku to bed. I want you asleep before I come back. Understand? What are you eating? Dumplings with noodle soup? That's like baby food. Not even Agatha would eat that. Next time I won't be in such a hurry to leave Grandma! I left cakes and soda. (..)
