Молодой человек, это возмутительно, уже третий раз! Вы стоите на моём месте, купленном, между прочим, за полтора миллиона.
Young man, this is outrageous, it's the third time! You're parked in my space, which I bought, by the way, for one and a half million.

B
На вашем? Я его снимаю, вот договор аренды на место сорок два.
Yours? I'm renting it, here's the lease for space forty-two.
-
A
Сорок второе моё, и по документам, и по факту. Кто вам его сдал?
Forty-two is mine, both on paper and in fact. Who rented it to you?
-
B
Руденко Игорь Валерьевич, арендодатель, если верить договору. Я ему с марта перевожу по пять тысяч в месяц.
Igor Valeryevich Rudenko, the landlord, according to the contract. I've been sending him five thousand a month since March.
-
A
Руденко? Так у него сорок четвёртое, он вообще из третьего подъезда.
Rudenko? But his space is forty-four, and he lives in entrance three anyway.

B
Подождите... То есть этот аферист полгода меня облапошивал, сдавая чужое место?
Hang on... So for six months that swindler has been conning me, renting out someone else's space?
-
A
Выходит, так. Место в собственности у меня, а договор вы заключили с лицом, которому оно не принадлежит.
Looks like it. The space is my property, and you signed your lease with a party it doesn't belong to.
-
B
Ну, Игорь Валерьевич, ну, комбинатор... Пойдёмте к нему вместе, пусть объяснит, что именно он мне сдал.
Well, Igor Valeryevich, what a schemer... Let's go and see him together, and he can explain what exactly he rented me.
