Uncle Dimitri and Stanko are waiting at the station for Julia's train. |
When they see her they go to greet her and to carry her cases. |
They drive to their farm where she is to spend her summer holiday. |
At the house she is greeted by all her old friends from before. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
But most of all she wants to meet her favourite horse. She has some sugar for him. |
Her bag opens and Stanko sees, instead of school books, her detective novels! He agrees not to tell anyone. |
Two Gypsies are camping nearby with their mare, Sonja, who runs away. |
Boris has been taken back to the stables. Stanko notices that the bolt to the door has not been fixed. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
When Stanko has gone, Boris pushes open the gate. |
He runs out the door and into the fields. |
He jumps over a stone wall and meets Sonja. |
The Gypsies are fixing their wagon. The older one sees Boris in the field with Sonja. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
The Gypsies plan to keep Boris, at least for a while. They want Sonja to have a foal. They try to catch him. |
One of them has some oats and the other a rope. Then they realize that as long as they have Sonja, Boris will follow. |
The old Gypsy paints Boris with black paint to disguise him. |
Stanko realizes that Boris has escaped. Julia has a plan to get Boris back. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
She decides she can drive the car to look for him. But Stanko is not so sure. |
She stops the Gypsies to ask if they know anything. After Julia and Stanko have gone the two horses bolt. |
The younger man is thrown from the wagon. The wagon hits a wall and a wheel comes off. Boris breaks free and runs away. |
Boris runs through a river, washing away some of the paint. When he catches up with them they now recognize him. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
They take him to a lake and wash him clean. |
They joke around. Uncle Dimitri turns up unexpectedly. |
He points out to Stanko that he has paint on his face. She tries to explain everything, but he knows already. |
He also knows how much more trouble she will be to him for the rest of her holiday, and he playfully tweaks her nose. |
