(man groaning)

How many times have I...

Kelsey...

I missed you so much...

Did you miss me?

Whoa! That�s enough!

Oh my God, Kelsey...

Lucia?

Lucia...

Diego, time to get up.

I just had the strangest dream.

Really? We didn�t notice.

I�m just going to lie here for a few minutes.

Don�t forget you have a meeting with Ms Ludmilla this morning.

(birds chirping)

Hi Kelsey, I bet you�re wondering why I�m all dressed up?

It's a big day.

The director of my school, Ms Ludmila, told my host father that she wants to meet me.

I'm sure she wants to congratulate me for a really successful first few months.

She really has grown to trust me and rely on me a lot.

Maybe she even wants to give me an award.

Anyway...

I think I�m figuring out this whole Peace Corps thing!

(quirky music)

Diego, you understand,

Ms Ludmila is a very strong woman.

- I figured that out. - Wait, my phone.

- Hello, yes? - Hello, Victor?

I'm in Chisinau.

It's Ms Ludmila, she's in the city.

Is that Diego?

- Put me on the speaker. - Yes.

Yes, Ms Ludmilla, he's listening too.

I can�t come to our meeting.

I�m still here talking about the extra funding for the school, and I�m very angry.

It seems they want to give the funding to another school from our district.

It�s all because they have an English Club, with

an English teacher from the British Embassy.

I�ve seen their English club. It�s only silly games and entertainment.

Nothing serious.

English Club?

It�s a club where kids go to learn English and have fun.

- English is fun? - Victor, are you listening?

Yes Ms Ludmila, we are listening.

I�ve decided we�re going to be better than them.

We�re going to make our own English Club,

with our own English teacher, an American!

Ours will be open all day, not just after school.

We�ll have thematic lessons, book discussions,

and maybe some classic films...

It will be fun, but educational.

I�m counting on you and Diego to make it happen, as soon as possible.

- We'll show them who's better. - Yes Ms Ludmila, we'll do it.

What?

We need help!

Leave me alone!

A store room?

It just needs some furniture and books, and maybe a TV,

and it will be perfect.

You need to have a little imagination.

Or be a little "chior" (blind).

Come on!

(quirky music)

Over there.

Hai (come on), let's go!

Ok, so it�s clear, right?

Adverbs modify verbs and adjectives modify...

nouns.

Ruslan. Give me a verb.

Fart?

Verb: to fart, adverb: loudly.

Ruslan farts loudly.

Stop laughing.

Yana. Give me a noun.

Boredom.

Adjective: extreme, noun: boredom.

I hope you�re not talking about this class.

(bell ringing)

Okay. Remember, there's a test tomorrow, so please be ready.

(quirky music)

My father says you should teach me more English.

I thought he was joking.

I told him I know English pretty well, but he says it�s not enough.

Well... time for a lesson then.

Let�s go to the English club.

Where is everyone?

It is not interesting here.

The English club in town is funner.

You mean more fun?

Whatever.

It's boring here.

Why would you say that?

The other club in town has computers and tablets,

and a cool English teacher who knows about music and gaming.

Jocuri? (games)

Like Minecraft and Fortnite?

I wasn�t always a teacher, Yana.

Yana, we need to make this club cool.

Right...

Maybe my dad could help?

He knows where we can get some cool stuff.

Yeah, that's great!

Can you ask him?

Maybe we should think about it some more?

What do we have to lose?

Yes, what exactly?

Okay guys, write this down in your copybooks.

Write!

What's up? You should have seen your face.

- Ms Ludmila is not here, right? - In Chisinau, training.

This place is lame.

Lucia said that she could get some more books for the club.

Lucia is not fun.

Maybe we should wait for Lucia.

It�s the men who make the decisions, Victor. (in Russian)

- What did he say? - Come here.

You want my help?

Some items recently came into my possession I think would be perfect here.

In return, you get to keep them for a while.

Win-win situation, understood?

Listen here...

You need to tell Ms Ludmilla that it�s your stuff, from America or something. Ok?

- We got a deal? - Sure, I guess.

And strippers?

Kidding! You should have seen your face.

Where�s a camera when you need it?

- Give it to me. - That's mine.

- No! - Is it so hard to get the ball?

Get it back.

- Like that, run! - Let's go!

Yes.

Like that.

- Yes, yes, yes! - Come on!

Soccer is kind of fun.

What soccer? This is football!

Put it over there.

Multumesc! (Thank you)

Just make sure they don�t break anything.

If any of this stuff gets broken, I will rain down pain upon your families.

Got it?

Don�t worry. By the way,

I took care of your other problem too.

What problem?

You know. The English guy from the other club.

Let�s just say he won�t be coming back for a while.

Ce? (What?)

I sent some guys to the city to have a talk with him.

What don't you understand? We asked him politley to not come back.

You don�t sound grateful.

No, no...

Multumesc. (Thank you)

That is better.

Ms Ludmilla is back. She wants to see the new club.

What�s with Ms Ludmila?

Did you tell her, about all of this?

Shit, no! I didn't have enough time.

You�re getting me worried. What happened?

Ms Ludmila arrives in a couple of minutes... and

Diego didn�t tell her about all of this stuff.

Wait, I can fix this.

Too late, Diego!

If she sees me here, she�ll to jump to conclusions.

Conclusions she might share with the police.

I don�t like to be disappointed, Diego!

Vasia, get here now. We�re pulling everything out.

No! Now! Everything and fast!

Give it to me!

Everyone stop what you�re doing right now!

Ms Ludmilla is on her way and we need to hide everything.

Help me with that. Quick!

You were almost cool.

Story of my life.

Almost cool, almost funny,

almost in love,

almost...

Ms Ludmila, I have something to talk to you about.

Not now Victor, I want to see the English club. We can talk after.

Hide the games.

The director!

(quirky music)

Good job Mr. Diego!

I�m really impressed this time.

I'm sure everyone will hear about our club now.

Diego, I have some important news.

There is a training coming up in Chisinau.

I want you and some representatives from the school to attend.

Did you hear me? You listening?

No!

I mean... yes!

- With pleasure. - Very good!

Good job Mr. Diego!

I�m very pleased with you.

Good afternoon, Aunt Ludmila.

Misha?!

I don't think I have ever seen Ms Ludmilla so angry.

She really doesn�t like Misha.

It's strange that the English Club in town also closed down.

- Do you know what happened? - No idea.

Is this your homemade wine?

- I�m trying something new. You like it? - Yeah.

Why is Misha so afraid of Ludmila?

She is his aunt.

I noticed that, but still...

Only she can stop him from doing something crazy.

What did he do that was wrong? He was just trying to help.

Enough, it�s already late.

Lucia knows what she�s talking about.

De ce? (Why?)

She was married to him.

- Really? - Enough!

How intersting...

Wait...

So Yana is her daughter?

No, no, no. That is Misha�s second wife.

Lucia and Misha were married a long time ago.

He seems interested.

She says you seem interested.

Why would I be?

I do not know. You tell me.

It�s ok. Get some sleep.

And don�t forget the light.

Hi Kelsey.

I have some amazing friends and colleagues here.

We opened an English club at the school. We were the talk of the town.

We used some... local resources...

and got the kids interested in English through more than just book learning.

Unfortunately, we ran into some... problems

with the equipment, so we had to shut it down.

But it didn�t matter.

I made it work and everyone seemed happy.

I wonder what you�re up to these days.

Call me...

Anytime.
