INT. THE DINGY APARTMENT - DAY

Cut to inside the dingy apartment with construction going on. The guys are shocked. The Hungarian landlord is with them.

MATT

What the fuck?

DAVID

You call this a palace?

LANDLORD

(with a thick accent) I said "place".

ALI

(pulls back his hand fast) Ew, I touched something sticky. (to Matt) A Lube'd user must be nearby.

DAVID

This is not the flat in the pictures.

MATT

You flat-fished us!

LANDLORD

Of course it is! Here is kitchen. It's marble countertop so please no coffee rings.

ALI

That is a hole. Not a kitchen.

LANDLORD

(gestures with hand) Yes, the whole kitchen. There is construction now for a beautiful winter garden. But it didn't finish on time. Don't worry, constructor will come every morning at 6 and finish before you leave.

MATT

What? 6? I won't even have gone to bed! I'm calling Airbnb, I'll ask for a total refund.

LANDLORD

Come on, don't be such an American.

DAVID

We have every right to cancel. A person can't live in this ruin!

LANDLORD

Now you're being "Le French"! "Let's go on strike!"

The Landlord makes himself laugh while the others are shocked.

LANDLORD

(joking to Ali) Sorry, I don't know what the Turkish do. But don't be a Muslim and blow this out of proportion.

MATT

(gasps) Let's get out of here!
