Xavier : [advanced drunken state, holds a bird cage with a parakeet in it] It's yours 'cause I'm late for dinner. A parakeet. He can talk, the salesman said.
[no comment from Carmen]
Xavier : You're not into parakeets, uh?
Carmen : Three hours.
Xavier : Three hours? No, he's four months old.
Carmen : Three hours late.
Xavier : I had to work overtime. Sergeant De Kr......
Carmen : I just called the barracks.
Xavier : Really?
Carmen : And I asked for Sergeant Waterslaeghers. Do you know what they answered?
Xavier : Yes. Err, no.
Carmen : That *Corporal Waterslaeghers* had been gone for more than two hours and that *the corporal* failed his exam.
Xavier : No wonder. My own section thwarted me in the assault drills. "Sneak", I shouted. But they all lifted their arse on purpose. I had bad luck.
Carmen : You didn't prepare yourself.
Xavier : Sure, I did not prepare myself...
Carmen : Sir would rather spend his days with soccer. If you'd only be good at it. But no. They put you in goal 'cause you can't play.
Xavier : I'm a good goalkeeper.
Carmen : Yet you're not a Sergeant. Liar!
Xavier : Next time I'll...
Carmen : There will be no next time. You know that very well.
Xavier : I want to become a Sergeant. But apparently the military doesn't.
Carmen : 'Cause they can't do anything with you.
Xavier : Sshht. The neighbors.
[waves his right arm up and down to silence Carmen]
Carmen : Look at that. You're starting to act like your bird already. That's not a bad idea. Then you can *fly*.
Xavier : That beast will be scared of people for the rest of its life.
Carmen : Then you can even *fly outside*.
Xavier : [on himself and his bird] Carmen, please. We've not eaten all day.
Carmen : Out! I don't want to see you until you've earned your stars.
[slams the door]
Xavier : [through the keyhole] I'll steal someone else's!
