Alberto the Italian (итальянец Альберто) says, "My wife, I rubbed her all over (натер ее всю) with fine olive oil (чудным оливковым маслом; fine — тонкий, утонченный; превосходный), then we make wonderful love (затем мы чудесно занимались любовью). She screamed for five minutes (она кричала /целых/ пять минут)."

Marcel the Frenchman (француз Марсель) says, "I smoothed (намазал; smooth — гладкий, ровный; to smooth — приглаживать, сглаживать; смягчать, смазывать [smu:D]) sweet butter (сладкое масло) on my wife's body (тело), then we made passionate (страстная) love. She screamed for half an hour (она кричала полчаса)."

Maurice Cohen (Морис Коган) says, "I covered my wife's body with schmaltz (я покрыл тело жены салом). We made love and she screamed for six hours (шесть часов)."

Maurice shrugs (пожимает плечами). "I wiped my hands on the drapes (я вытер руки о портьеры, драпировку)."

"What's the curse? (какое проклятие)" the man asked (спросил).
