When you decided

to change your life.

You don`t fix a marriage

by moving to a new place.

What if he stops loving me

in the daytime too?.

What if he

stops loving me at all?.

All I want is to be happy

with the man I love.

That`s all I ask for.

Maybe you should have

started all over again.

I don`t get you.

No, but I get you!

What?.

The terns.

One is obsessed with money.

The other one can`t stand it...

And l`m caught between them.

I`ve tried to explain this to your wife...

- I have a favor to ask.

- What is it?.

Take this...

Sisi doesn`t know anything about it.

I`ve been putting

a little aside for years.

It`s enough for what you owe us.

Are you lending me money

to pay you back?.

Take it.

It`s mine and l`m giving it to you.

Go down to the guesthouse,

shove it down her throat

and tell that fat b*tch

to choke on it.

Please, do me this favor.

I`m begging you.

I can`t.

Nonsense. Of course you can.

What`s wrong with me?.

There is nothing wrong with you.

You`re a little drunk, like me...

but other than that, you`re fine.

I was going...to change my life.

But l...

It wasn`t supposed to go this way.

You know something?.

My dream was to become an opera singer.

Yes.

Maybe things didn`t turn out

the way we dreamt.

I guess not.

But let me tell you something.

You have changed your life

and I am an opera singer.

To hell with all of them.

- Lalli.

- Yes?.

Can you do me a favor in return?.

Anything, my friend.

Give this to your wife.

You`re going to

the guesthouse anyway.

Yes.

Then give this to her and tell her

l`m sorry for paying late.

OK.

No. I can`t do that.

She`ll know right away

that it`s coming from me.

You`ll have to do this yourself.

Aren`t churches supposed

to be open at all times?.

What if you have an urge to pray

in the middle of the night?.

And what if the bloody organist

has to practice the wedding march?.

That`s it.

Who the hell...

Crap!

Who made these arrangements?.

Walk down the aisle

like you just got married -

to find the rhythm.

No problem.

Malla, will you marry me?.

Yes.

What the hell is going on!

He had to try out the organ.

At four o`clock in the morning?.

I think the organ needs tuning.

Out! Get out!

How about joining us

in the hot tub, Reverend?.

Out!

A new beginning, a new life...

but still the same old fool.

Whats going on here?.

Anna said you wanted to talk to me.

Yes...

Your wife is sick, she needs you.

If you love her

you can`t go on like this.

This isn`t that simple.

How convenient.

Nothing in this world is good or bad.

No right or wrong,

just complex and difficult.

What do you want from me?.

Why are you obsessed with us?.

- Don`t make this about me.

- Jon!

Well, then!

And I will not accept this

in the graveyard.

What the hell are you

talking about?.

I`m sorry, but I haven`t seen you

since...you know.

I can`t do this.

The guilt is killing me.

Why do you feel guilty?.

What?.

What did you do?.

What do you mean?.

You know what we did.

We were saving a man`s life.

What on earth

are your talking about?.

You said it yourself.

It`s acceptable to cheat on your wife,

if it is to save a man`s life.

I am beginning to understand.

You`re a pathetic man, Jon.

Stop it.

You lied to me when you said

you loved me and I believed you.

You can start over.

Make your dreams come true.

To write, to dream again.

I don`t even remember

my dreams.

You didn`t dream about

running a golf course.

We came here to get better

and then you lie to me.

I may be ill, but you`re sick.

I don`t want to see you

end up like Dad.

Having lost his dreams and

stuck with a woman he never loved -

because he didn`t have

the guts to leave.

What did she want?.

I want to know.

What did she say?.

Don`t ask, please.

Tell me, what did she want?.

I heard it.

The terns told me.

I heard them.

He`s lying.

He`s lying.

Come and see.

I`m gone. I can`t do this.

He`s lying!

Stop it.

He`s lying!

Shut up!

You f***ing lunatic!

Sorry.

I`m leaving.

I`m gone.

My God,

how I despise the man!

Why do you do this to me?.

How am I supposed to bless

a marriage I don`t believe in?.

Forgive me. Forgive me.

That`s it.

Thank you.

Sorry.

I`ve lost my shoe.

F***, how am I going to play

with only one shoe on?.

Sh*t!

The wedding.

I have to pick up guests from the ferry.

Oh?.

Get going!

When are we getting married?.

What?. We?.

That`s what you said yesterday.

No, I didn`t.

Yes, you did.

In the church.

Jon, you`ve got to wake up.

I`ve lost my shoe.

I passed out...

But now you`re born again.

It`s a new day, a new life...

and you`re getting a new wife.

Not a bad day!

I can`t do this.

I want my old life back.

As you can see there is sea

all around this island.

The man is a proper priest, I hope.

It looks like he is.

She`s not moving in

with Anna`s old furniture.

Good for her.

- Thora. Darling.

- Yes?.

- Maybe l`ve been a bit unfair.

- Mom!

Your father promised you

a new kitchen as a wedding gift.

I was thinking...

if we don`t give you

the new kitchen,

but subtract it from Jon`s debt,

and give you instead...

a refrigerator.

Why are you doing this?.

Because l`m trying

to find a compromise.

We don`t need any gifts.

Jon`s old refrigerator

works just fine.

Of course we have

to give you something.

We give you the feast

and the refrigerator.

You are obsessed with money.

I didn`t ask for any presents...

and we can just skip the feast

if it`s such a big deal.

Wouldn`t that be just perfect!

I`ve been preparing

this feast for weeks.

I made twenty kilos

of rhubarb jam.

I don`t give a damn!

You don`t care about

anything but yourself!

I`m not getting married

to eat your f***ing jam!

How do I pee

in this f***ing thing!

But why is he marrying you?.

Because he loves me!

Coffee, we need coffee.

Where do you keep the coffee?.

What am I doing?.

What do you mean?.

This wedding.

She`s almost 20 years younger.

It will never work.

Why are you asking me?.

The only woman

I have lived with is my mother.

I can`t do it...

Do you realize how lucky you are

to have someone who loves you?.

Dear old chap...

I don`t care if your wife

is 1 8 or 80...

if only you promise to be happy

and stop this bloody moaning.

Who the hell

invented the cufflink!

What about

all the money he owes us?.

Maybe he`s doing this

to get out of the debt?.

What do you have

in common after all?.

Are you marrying him

just to get back at me?.

Can I pee in private?.

I give up. I can`t do this anymore.

You and your father

bully me around.

Close the door.

You`re so pushy!

Jesus!

I`m having a heart attack.

Do that somewhere else,

so I can pee.

- So you`re all right with the refrigerator?.

- Mom!

Coming!

- What`s your shoe size?.

- What?.

- Malla.

- No.

Where have you been?.

Around.

Didn`t I tell you

to stay away from Borkur?.

- Why?.

- What do you mean why?.

Why can`t I be with Borkur?.

It`s not good for you.

- Is it because l`m different?.
