Efter Brylluppet Page #4

everything and agree -

- that a sum of 12 million

dollars is realistic.

- 12 million dollars?

- I know the dollar is low.

All kidding aside.

You can quickly see -

- that it will cover a whole year

for 65,000 children.

Including room, board,

school and administration.

That's more than are born

in Denmark in a year.

Think of what that money could do.

You could really do something.

- What do you get out of this?

- Nothing. I keep my good life.

I buy remission for my sins.

And we're almost family.

- Why are you doing this?

- I'm assuming you're interested.

Yes, damn it.

Of course I'm interested.

Jacob, stay here.

You'll get to know Anna better.

You could take out Helene for dinner.

I'm going to to Sweden

with the twins. We're going fishing.

You're a strange man, Jorgen.

She has to eat.

She's a terrible cook.

- Take care of yourselves, okay?

- We will, mother.

- Don't lose too much online.

- I won 235 dollars last night.

Congratulations.

Try and hang on to them.

- Mom did it up wrong.

- We can't have that.

There. Hop inside.

Thanks.

I want to come with you.

No, out of the question.

You don't want to, Helene.

It's sons and their father in the

woods. Or else they'll turn out gay.

Promise to use a life vest and

water wings. And the boys too.

- Bye bye!

- Bye.

Hi.

- Can we talk?

- What do you want to talk about?

- We could start with Jorgen?

- Stop already.

Listen. Can I come in?

Thanks.

- So talk about Jorgen.

- Can we sit down?

We could find a chair.

This is fine. May I sit here?

Okay...

Did you know Jorgen asked me

to administer a fund?

- No. What fund?

- It's aid work. With Anna.

- You'll run it with Anna?

- With Anna.

It's a very generous offer,

but he's dragging things out.

I want to know what's going on. If it's

one of your games, I want it to stop.

Stop being paranoid. You don't have

to be poor to have good intentions.

There are people with

money and ideals.

- Really? I'd like to meet one.

- Hello, Jacob.

Give me a break.

You never had any ideals.

I could be rude about your ideals

and we could go on and on.

- We could go on being rude...

- Then tell me what he wants.

He doesn't care about the

orphanage or humanitarian work.

It's bad business.

What does he want?

I don't know what he wants to do

with the orphanage and Anna.

I don't understand it, Jacob.

Then let me ask you a different way:

Do you know something I don't?

No, Jacob, I know nothing.

That's all I wanted to know.

- May I offer you a cup of coffee?

- No thanks.

- Dare I offer you a glass of wine?

- Only if you've got enough.

Right.

Dare I ask how you've been?

The last twenty years?

They've been a bit up and down.

And you?

I've been fine.

Also a bit hectic.

- I just got a daughter.

- Congratulations.

- Do you have a wife?

- No.

- You haven't married?

- No.

A girlfriend?

No.

- Is it rude of me to ask?

- No, no.

- Why don't I get that wine?

- Good idea.

When I went home,

I thought you would follow me.

I thought so too.

I thought you would come back.

You did?

But we didn't.

We should go to India.

- Why?

- It's warm.

They've got good hotels.

Stop it.

Why?

Look at this apartment. We're lying

on a mattress. There's lots to do.

- It doesn't matter.

- It does.

- And we're going to Val d'lsere.

- We can go there, but not India?

Give me a break.

Ever since you met

your real, holy father -

- you've been really

irritating to be with.

What about us? It's always

Jacob, Jacob, Jacob, all the time.

You can't change things now, Anna.

Hello?

Why are you sitting here?

Sweetheart!

It's lovely to see you.

- I can't stand it when we fight.

- Me neither.

But we need to talk

about this properly.

- Yes.

- Like grown ups.

- Of course, sweetie.

- So stop calling me sweetie.

- What can I call you then?

- You could call me Anna.

Okay.

Did you marry Jorgen for my sake?

So that I had a father?

No.

I love Jorgen.

Do you?

A lot.

So everything with Jacob

was a mistake?

- No.

- What was it then?

I was very in love with Jacob,

but I was also very unappy.

About what?

About being in love with him.

We just hurt each other all the time.

When you told me

Jorgen wasrt my father -

- why didn't you say Jacob was?

Maybe because...

because I wanted to forget him.

Did you?

Well... I thought so.

- Who drove off last night?

- It was Jacob.

I thought Johannes drove him,

but he couldn't have.

- Jorgen lent him to Jacob.

- He never lends out Johannes.

He did to Jacob.

It seems he is giving it all

to that Jacob.

Helene Hansson. I'd like to speak

to Doctor Philippsen.

Remember to lie.

How big was it?

You have to agree or she won't

believe it... Good, off you go.

- We caught one that was this big.

- No way!

It's true, but it got away.

I have to go to town.

Jorgen?

Wort you stay for lunch?

We ate on the way.

I'll be home in a few hours.

- Jorgen? I spoke to Doctor Phillipsen.

- Yes.

Phillipsers under confidentiality.

That's totally unacceptable.

He promised me.

He's betrayed my trust.

You had promised him to tell me

after the wedding, right?

You've known for five months.

I want to let it be for now, Helene.

You don't have the time.

What are you going to do?

Anna and the boys must not know

before it's absolutely necessary.

Are you listening?

Not before it's absolutely necessary.

- Do you understand?

- Yes.

We'll figure something out.

There's always a solution.

There's always something

in America...

- There's nothing to do.

- Yes, there is.

There's nothing to do!

- There's...

- No!

- There's nothing to do, understand?

- You can't die!

We don't get to decide, damn it.

Let go. Get out.

Get out of the damn car

before I throw you out!

Shut the door!

- How long will you stay there?

- One week, only one week.

- You'll come to my birthday?

- Yes, of course.

I wouldn't miss that.

I promise.

Shut up, you'll be next.

- I know I promised.

- Wort you come for my birthday?

Pramod, I'm really sorry...

- I have to go to class. Bye.

- No, wait.

So, here you are.

Please excuse the formalities.

You only need to read

the last three pages.

Did Helene invite you

to my birthday?

- No.

- You can't rely on her.

- Then I better do it.

- Thanks.

There are a few things I don't

understand. Can we look at it?

What does that mean?

It means that you and Anna have

No, not that.

Here it is.

The part where it says

I have to live in Denmark.

Yes, we haven't talked about

that yet.

To build an organization like that

you have to live in Denmark.

- Can't I just come to board meetings?

- No, it's a demand on my behalf.

Why should I do that?

Because I said

it's a demand on my behalf.

You mean that? I can't spend half

a year here and half a year there?

Have I said anything I don't mean?

Maybe everyone else kisses

your ass, but I won't.

- What do you mean?

- You've lost your mind. What is that?

Is that why I came? To meet Anna

and see Helene? You want to buy me?
