Pavlenko is always asking to leave work early, usually because his pregnant wife thinks she’s having contractions.
And again today he asks. (I cut out the part where he explains her contractions yet again.)
What does his boss say?

Check Answer

Я сказал нет! Никаких пораньше!
I said no! No “early” (exits from work).

Серьёзно! Позвонила жена…
Seriously! My wife… (is feeling contractions and I need to take her to the hospital)

Слушай, Павленько. Она у тебя каждую нелею рожает. Сколько у вас уже детей? Штук десять?!
Listen, Pavlenko. She, at you, every week is giving birth. How many kids do you guys have? About ten pieces? (His choice of the word штука is what makes the clip hilarious.)
