I'll pay. I've got plenty of money.

You can thank four-eyes for that.

I can't.

How would I do it?

Are you insane?

Just say you're going on

one of those shop courses.

Shop steward courses.

- I'll write a letter for your wife.

On a typewriter.

We'll say it's from your union.

Yes... Yes...

Viggo.

I think the bicycle lamp

has gone out.

More coffee?

Is the coffee good?

There's cheese, too.

- No thanks.

What are you reading?

I see.

It was the mail.

Well, I believe

there's a letter for me.

It's from the union.

"Viggo Hansen". He's right here.

Listen:
"You're invited to special

safety and environment course.

There will also be a lecture on

unemployment past and present. "

I'll say. They want me

to take a course again.

They must like me.

It's on Saturday.

- It is?

That's not much of a respite.

- No.

They're insane. They think

they can boss people around...

But...

On the other hand, Oda...

I might as well learn something

while this is going on and...

A week... will pass quickly.

Sure. If it can

cheer you up, then...

Why do you need swimming trunks

on a shop steward course?

Don't rummage about in my suitcase!

And it's an environment course.

There's a swimming pool

at the union schools.

Why wouldn't there be?

We're unemployed, not poor buggers.

I'm late. Remember to feed Ole.

I have to go now.

When you're in Silkeborg, won't you

visit my sister and her husband?

I won't have time. I'm not too keen

on that Preben either...

The last time you were there,

you thought they were very nice.

I won't have time.

Eight days fly by, and we have to

learn about environment, safety...

Yes, you look like that guy.

What did you pay for that jacket?

- I don't remember.

You look terribly elegant

in that jacket.

Just ask me if it suits you.

What did your wife say to it?

She asked, of course,

how much I'd paid for it.

I know who you look like now.

Who does he look like, driver?

The driver is very nice.

Who does he look like?

That guy from Wheel of Fortune.

- That guy from Wheel of Fortune.

Isn't it just

incredibly beautiful and romantic?

Viggo, my little holiday boy.

Camarero?

- Dos cervezas, por favor.

- No, just a cold beer.

- Genau. Es ist ein schnes Wetter.

- Wie schn es ist mit der Sonne.

- Und weit von nach Hause.

- Ja, genau.

Oh, Viggo!

This is Hans. He's German.

Well, that's not his fault.

- Hans.

- What's he saying?

Hans.

- Hello, you clown.

- Sind Sie verheiratet?

- Nein, wir sind nur befreundet.

Es ist ja kein Spass den Urlaub

allein zu verbringen, gelt?

He's asking if we're married.

- No, we're just friends.

I said that.

- Sprechen Sie Deutsch?

He's asking if you speak German.

- Ask him if he speaks Danish.

You look like a wet Wednesday.

Go buy yourself something chic.

Sprechen Sie Spanisch?

Ja, zu Not. Ich war einigemal

frher hier im Land. Prost.

Viggo! Aren't you Viggo

from number 12 on Enghavevej?

No.

- It's ge and Inger from number 14.

No, it's not me. It isn't.

Viggo?

Where the hell have you been?

- I'm going to enter.

I'll do it. I'm going to enter.

- For what?

Imagine standing on a stage again.

The travel agency is having

a tourist concert. With prizes.

An amateur competition?

- Yes. No, a tourist concert.

That's what they call it.

Just for fun.

Imagine standing on a stage again.

You have to support me, Viggo.

- You bet.

It's nice to have

a strong man to lean on.

You have to participate.

- In what?

You'll support me by standing

at my side at the concert.

You'll enter, right?

- I can't sing.

You're so funny.

You can do something.

I could roll my belly.

- Oh, Viggo!

Buenos das, seoras y seores.

Ladies and gentlemen,

welcome to the tourist concert.

The weather's nice today

the sun is shining

and pleasant memories

float around me

I've dreamt there

under golden trees

dreamt that my love

was close to me

it goes bleep bloop

everything is good

we've got what we need

that's understood

it goes bleep bloop

everything is good

we've got what we need

that's understood

lots of success

and whatever it takes

lots of big spotlights

privacy and music

from job to job

concerts non-stop

ice-cold dressing rooms

autographs and stage fright

but at night

when the lights go out

and all is quiet

you're alone

oh so alone

The votes have been counted,

and we have a winner. It's...

...Viggo Jensen.

Hansen.

You were supposed to support me!

- You told me to enter.

You didn't have to win.

- That's up to the audience.

The audience. Sheer humbug!

They don't know anything about it.

It's just for fun.

- For fun?

I was hoping to get a chance

and then...

...you say "just for fun".

Move those flowers.

- But they're for you. Here you go.

I don't want your flowers!

- But...

Karen.

Karen?

Hello.

- Hello.

Nobody likes me.

The octopus is a definite loner.

They're only together

one single time in their lives.

If the female isn't in the mood when

the male approaches, he may be eaten.

God Almighty has arranged it -

so that the male has a

spermatophore on one of his arms.

He then slips it into

the female's genital opening -

and fires his spermatophore.

And then he dies.

And when the female

has laid her eggs, she dies.

I can't have children.

Then he got a girl

he knows pregnant.

She's from the Faroe islands.

He started to buy toys in secret.

Then he moved.

To the Faroe islands?

You're the biggest idiot

I've ever picked up.

Now now.

- Bleep bloop.

Everything is incredibly good.

You and your unemployment. It's

the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

When my husband

couldn't control his men, -

he just sacked a couple of them.

Then the rest bowed and scraped.

They've just done it to get you

on your knees. It suits you!

What the hell are you doing here

when you have a family? You big ass.

Taxa.

- Taxi.

Taxa!

Hello?

Hello?

Oda, aren't you going to yell:

"Who is it?"

I didn't think you cared

whether I was here at all.

Well, I do. You look great.

Is it for my sake?

No, certainly not.

It's for my own sake.

I didn't know when to expect you.

Then I would have raised the flag.

I'm going to a lecture.

- On what?

Ecology.

This is a bloody lousy homecoming.

I've been on a course

to equip myself, and what do I get?

Your own room.

All to yourself.

Oda?

Hello, Ole. Give us a little burp.

You're a good boy, aren't you?

You need a quick one, too.

Would you like a quick one? Yes.

You're swimming around

all alone.

Don't you need to get out and get

some p*ssy? It's supposed to be good.

Hi, Viggo.

Are you looking for a job?

- No...

We're running out of brass,

so I have to buy some myself.

Hey, you!

Move your arse.

This isn't a rest home.

I'm not paying them

to stand around and talk.

How are you, Viggo?

How are you doing?

Are you chatting with the fish?

What's its name? Curly?

Ole.

- Ole, that's it. Ole.

I've told you a hundred times.

Why do you call it Curly, then?
