[Deemer]
(Ilya joins Masha in the kitchen and takes the vodka bottle away from her.)
ILYA: What are you doing drinking at this hour? (He takes a big swig from the bottle.) I get no appreciation around here. Who do they think I am?
MASHA: Who? What's the matter with you?
ILYA: I just quit.
MASHA: You quit your job?
ILYA: Under protest. Irina expects horses, when I have no horses available for her. She and your mother want to go shopping. They expect me to stop the harvest so they can go shopping.
MASHA: How can you quit? What will you do?
ILYA: Sorin can't manage without me. I just want a little respect around here.
MASHA: What will you do?
ILYA: I will wait for an apology!
(He starts out.)
MASHA: Now where are you going?
ILYA: To take a swim!
MASHA: Are you crazy?
(He leaves. Masha follows him out of the kitchen, then turns into the living room.)
