translation help

[Krystyna Steiger]

Oleg,
the oldest tenant of a communal apartment goes missing.  Some of the other 
tenants think she may have died in her room.  The District Inspector shows 
up, and on his orders a locksmith jimmies open the door to the room; the 
woman is not inside.  Hence, the policeman and the rest of the tenants 
assume she has gone out, no harm no foul.  But not Belotsvetov, who insists 
to fellow-tenant Chinarikov that something is fishy, at which point the 
latter utters the phrase in question:
"В каждый горшок тебе надо плюнуть"

Thanks Oleg (and Tim)
