Quotes 

• Pico : [opening lines; he is still in bed as the radio is playing; he is ill-tempered]  Doortje, for God's sake turn off that radio.

  [she does so] 

  Doortje : Here you go, mister Technician.

  Pico : How long have you been walking up and down? You've already run a marathon, haven't you?

  Doortje : Since six o'clock. I felt nauseous again.

  Pico : Oh really, and you always sing when you're nauseous, right?

  Doortje : I sing 'cause I want to forget that I'm nauseous.

  Pico : Sweeten a little less. You've been eating up an entire cake shop lately. You even ate cookies in bed last night.

  Doortje : Just the one.

  Pico : Just the one - There's *just the one* left.

  [he shows her the bag of cookies] 

  Pico : Look now - The bed's full of crumbs, my back's full of red spots.

  Doortje : Sir's in good spirits again, isn't he?

  Pico : Sir wants to sleep himself out on the weekend, that's what sir wants.

  Doortje : You're going to have to seriously adjust when we have a baby, you know that?

  Pico : A baby - Who's talking about a baby now? I'm tired of those brats at school. I don't plan to be in diapers and whining at home either.

  Doortje : So you mean you don't want a child anymore?

  Pico : Yes, that's exactly what I mean. Where are my stockings? Doortje, where are my...

  Doortje : Then you've been lying to me after we got married?

  [he buttons his bathrobe] 

  Pico : Married people always make things up to each other, Doortje.

  Doortje : Do you know how deeply you hurt me now?

  Pico : Don't dramatize, huh.

  [he walks back to their living room, he finds his stockings] 

  Doortje : You just break the most important vow you've made in your life and I can't dramatize?

  [he sits on the bag of morning cakes as he puts on his stockings] 

  Pico : Doortje, your yelling gives me a headache.

  Doortje : Here you go, your headache will soon be over.

  [she throws their laundry basket over him] 

  Pico : Dora -

  [he gets up] 

  Doortje : My cakes. You're an uncontrolled brute, is what you are!

  [she hiccups] 

  Doortje : And do you know what you are most of all? A big, hypocritical liar!

  [she leaves their apartment] 

  Pico : Dora!

• Dimitri : [Doortje's binge eating, Dimitri notices all of her food on her desk in his office]  We'll get that inventory done today, Doortje. Don't worry. You won't have to camp here.

  Doortje : I don't know what I'm having, Dimitri. I do nothing but eat and throw up.

  [he puts his books and folders in a different place] 

  Dimitri : It probably keeps the human body in balance, huh.

  Doortje : I need to go somewhere and sort something out. May I or is that a problem for you?

  Dimitri : No but, what good am I to you?

  Doortje : It's something my life depends on.

  Dimitri : Why don't you take a temporary career break or leave without pay?

  [she gags] 

  Dimitri : Is it that time again?

  Doortje : Whenever I hear "without pay" it suddenly pops up, you know.

  Dimitri : It's okay. But as a concerned employer, may I ask where you are going?

  Doortje : Yes. To my doctor. And to see a lawyer, to get me divorced.

  Dimitri : There it is. I always thought Pico was an aggressive whacko. I'm not surprised he punches you. Well, in those circumstances, your leave without pay is allowed. You don't even have to show me those bruises. Should you be looking for a witness, I'll be happy to note the physical injuries, though.

  Doortje : Dimitri, before I forget. Can I make a few private phone calls?

  Dimitri : You know, I can be generous. Go ahead. I won't even charge you.

  [she takes the phone] 

  Dimitri : It's not out of the zone, is it?
