Where it stands
— обращается Очумелов к Хрюкину. Ochumelov turns to Khryukin.
— Нешто она достанет до пальца? “Could she even reach as high as your finger?
Ты, должно быть, расковырял палец гвоздиком, а потом и пришла в твою голову идея, чтоб сорвать. You must have picked the finger open with a little nail, and then the idea came into your head of getting something out of it.
Ты ведь… известный народ! You people are… a well-known lot!
