"Yeah, it sure gets to be oppressive to have all this bad stuff happen to someone."
"I don't know what to do half the time."

"People shouldn't have to choose between drudgery at little pay and starvation. There was a time when the people of the third world did raise their own crops and subsistant farmed, but corporations don't want people to be subsistant, they want them to be relliant. Subsistant farms were replaced by cash crops and factories." Damek replies.
"All things happen for a reason. There is a reason that 3 billion people live on less 2 dollars a day. There is always a reason."
"But, like you said, we don't need to talk about politics. That doesn't leave much to talk about."

"Maybe you should try not to worry about it. I'm not really good at councilling, so I don't know what else to say. We all like you a lot, and I'm sorry if we do seem to lean on you a lot. Would you feel better if we went out for dinner or a movie or something and just tried not to worry about it?" I suggest.

"Yeah, but we could just talk about something frivolus and useless... What kind of movies do you like?" I ask, mostly to change the subject.

"Don't worry about me. I am fine. I just worry about Selja and don't really have what it takes to help her."
"But she seems happy. And we can all help raise her baby. I think that would be challenging but fun."

"I like the movie A Clockwork Orange. I think that one is my favorite. I don't really have a genre. Have you seen it?"

"Yeah that will be fun, raising the baby as a group. We'd all have something to teach him... or her. And it'd be much better than Selja trying to raise it by herself, or even if she managed to get Bassarov's help..." I say. The more I think about this idea the more sense it makes.

"No... Really I don't even know what it's about. I like your general he-man action movies, and well I'll admit I do watch a 'chick flick' occasionally but they're not my favorite." I say.

"Yeah. I don't know anything about kids or having them, or even mothering, but I am sure I can help out with something. And I am not sure if I want Bassarov here. He and Sakari are a little too close, and I think Selja might still like him as well. It is better for us all if he stays away."

"Yeah I'd tend to agree... I think the four of us is plenty, and really Bassarov would be a bad influence. Especially on Selja and the kid. And I'm sure you could help... In a way we'll all be parents, so really there are no traditional roles, except for Selja."

"It's about a young sociopath named Alex who is in a gang of rapists and murderers. He is arrested and goes through a strange rehabilitation."Damek says very briefly since he doesn't feel like going through a whole explaination of the movie. "If you like sex and Beetoven, it is good one to watch."

Finally I find the apartment I'm looking for. "Well this is it. You don't have to come along if you don't want, and I promise I won't kill anyone. In fact..." I pull out my handgun and give it to him. "Okay, well I'll see you in a bit." I get out of the car and start walking up to the apartment.

"That's true. It will be revolutionary." Cambridge says and smiles.
"Well maybe I will help this Hope out. I suppose I can meet with her and see what she has in mind, unless you want to work with her."

"Well I'll consider it." I say, not sure if I really want to see it.

"I guess I should get some shut eye. I don't know where I will go after this." Damek says, and thinks about some places he would like to travel. He has been bored lately and restless as a result. He can't settle.
