Good morning.

Good morning.

Do you like my room?

Thanks? Yeah.

You're awake?

Yeah, I guess.

Iulia... is making breakfast.

I need to shower.

Again?

Okay.

Good morning Kelsey.

Today I start learning... No, that's not it.

Good morning Kelsey!

Another beautiful day in Moldova.

Today I start learning Romanian.

I mean...

I'm pretty much already fluent, but...

This will help me out a lot.

People here speak Romanian and Moldovan, but...

I think it's pretty much the same thing.

Anyway...

I can't wait.

Why is he showering again?

- Didn't you tell him it's expensive? - But he's our guest.

Your guest.

There we go again.

Why are you so happy all of a sudden?

Because.

Good day Director.

I am happy.

Thank you.

As Mr. Victor told you

I wanted to check on the progress of your students.

Please proceed.

Sit.

I thought she was coming tomorrow.

I hope you're ready. Did you memorize the passage I gave you?

I picked my own.

So, I have translated from Russian.

This is the story of "The Cock and the Ass".

It's a story of friendship.

The Cock and the Ass were the best of friends.

They were different, but that didn't matter.

They loved each other and the Cock even rode the Ass.

- Okay, that's enough about friendship. - I'm not finished yet.

Let's give Yana a round of applause.

In the future we refer to the friends as the "Rooster" and the "Donkey".

But I don't understand.

I used a dictionary.

That's not important.

We're just going to get you a new dictionary.

What is a cock and an ass?

I thought it was a Rooster and a Donkey, but...

Now I'm not sure. - Miss Ludmila?

Would you care to say a few words in front of the class?

I want to thank Mr. Diego for...

the hard work.

Victor?

Please take over the class, while I talk to Mr. Diego.

- You're going to leave me alone with them? - They're called students.

I can't... I can't teach.

You don't have to teach. Tell them to read from the book.

Can you at least do that?

Diego, Lucia, come with me.

Hooray!

Diego, you must learn Romanian. You understand?

Lucia will help you.

Use this classroom. The mayor is waiting for me.

Good luck.

I need to improve my Romanian.

Kelsey is probably fluent in whatever language she's learning.

You don't understand anything, do you?

I am Diego. I'm 30 years old.

Yes, Victor told me everything about you.

I'm a Romanian teacher.

I never taught a foreigner before, but I think we'll manage.

Ms. Ludmila didn't give me much choice.

Do you want sugar? - Sure.

I didn't want it sweet.

Are you the cock or the ass?

Sure.

Okay. Don't worry.

We'll teach you in no time...

I have a girlfriend.

Her name is Kelsey.

Listen, you're a very attractive woman, but...

I'm taken.

We can still be friends, you know?

Prieteni?

Definitely the ass.

It's going to be harder than I thought.

Kelsey, what a day!

The Director finally came into my class, and she was blown away.

It was so rewarding.

And then my Romanian teacher,

She was overwhelmed by my advanced knowledge, but...

She's still willing to try and teach me.

Unfortunately though she tried to make a pass at me, but...

Don't worry.

I put her down easy, it's fine.

There's so few specialists out here, I'm kind of stuck with her anyway, but...

At least she's a hard worker. I guess, I don't know.

Well...

One adventure after another.

Well...

Good night Kelsey.

Who are you talking to?

No one.

No one?

No, ah...

What's the deal with Lucia?

Lucia?

I thought you had a girlfriend.

Never mind.

She's great, but...

Ex-husband...

No. She's my teacher.

Of course.

It's cold, no?

Cold?

Let's go.

I need your help.

Can't I relax a little bit?

You said you're cold.

Come on.

What is this?

Winter heat.

How does it work?

It helps with stress.

Let me show.

Look.

Now you try.

Okay.

Like this? - Yeah.

Okay.

It helps, no?

Yeah. Can I do another?

Yeah.

Welcome to Moldova.
