En: The sun shone over Prahou and a lively bustle ruled on Karlově mostě. Cs: Lidé spěchali sem a tam, ale uprostřed toho všeho stál Jirka. En: People hurried back and forth, but in the midst of it all stood Jirka. Cs: Byl unavený projektový manažer, který přijel do města kvůli pracovní konferenci. En: He was a tired project manager who had come to the city for a work conference. Cs: Ačkoli byl prvně v Praze, neměl čas na prohlídky. En: Although it was his first time in Praze, he didn't have time for sightseeing. Cs: Však jeho plán, jít rovnou do hotelu a pracovat, se nečekaně změnil.
