I've told you a hundred times.

Is it because you want me

to decide? Is that it?

Say something, Frank.

I don't know what to think.

- Then find out!

Yes.

Frank, say something.

I don't know how I'II feel if we have

a baby that's sick and poorly.

Nor do I know how I'II feel

if you have an abortion.

I don't know how I feel

and I can't figure it out, OK?

I'll tell you what I think.

I mix with junkies and murderers -

- who have loads of

healthy, bouncy babies.

And all I ask -

- is why this has happened to us?

Why couldn't...

...Why couldn't...

...couldn't...

There's a woman there

who left her daughter -

- and when she came back -

- she'd died of thirst.

Frank!

It isn't fair.

Frank! You keep walking

away from me! It isn't fair!

Kate Kristoffersen

has requested an interview.

I'll wait outside.

Hi.

Hi, Kate.

I don't really know what I want.

No.

- I just felt like a chat.

Maybe you're not feeling too good?

- A chat? What about?

Will you teach me how to pray?

Of course.

Come up here and sit down.

This is how it starts:

Our Father who art in heaven,

hallowed be Thy name.

Thy Kingdom come.

Our Father...

...who art in heaven...

...hallowed be Thy name.

Thy kingdom come.

Thy will be done

in heaven as it is on earth.

Thy will be done

in heaven as it is on earth.

Give us this day our daily bread.

Forgive us our trespasses...

...as we forgive those

who trespass against us.

Give us this day our daily bread.

Forgive us our trespasses...

...as we forgive those

who trespass against us.

What do you want of me, Kate?

- What?

I am not very well. I...

...We'd better do it another day.

I'm sorry.

Anna?

Anna? ...I've just been

talking to Kristian's wife.

He won't be coming back,

I'm afraid.

If you're happy here -

- perhaps we could make it

a permanent arrangement?

Any questions?

- No.

Are you happy here?

They're not too hard on you?

- No.

I am always the last to know.

- Can I get on home?

Of course.

- I'm not feeling well.

Well, that's fair enough.

Hi.

- Hi.

Can I help you?

I don't know if you remember me

and my boyfriend.

Oh, yes. We did laugh, didn't we!

Could I see my baby again?

You'll need an appointment.

- I haven't got one.

I have a couple waiting outside.

They say there may be

something wrong.

I'm sorry to hear it.

Something to do

with the chromosomes.

But they don't know what, so...

I just can't do it

without an appointment.

I'II be quick.

It won't take long.

Or I'II wait till later.

I can wait outside.

The fact that God created us -

- does not absolve us

of responsibility.

We are responsible for what we do.

I suppose...

I don't know if

anybody had expected...

...a drop to drink?

We could do that instead.

Or we could just call it a day.

I'II say it again: if you're

feeling bad go and see Kate.

Everyone who's been to Kate

has received help.

You should try it.

It wouldn't do any harm.

What harm could it do?

Tilt it, tilt it!

Or it'll stick.

Now you can brown it.

This one must be yours.

- I've got one.

Want another?

- Yes.

Remember that delivery man who

used to come to our street?

It was a dead easy job.

He took you...

He took you to a cemetery.

You strung him up stark naked in

the back of his van, got out, -

- had a few ciggies -

- and then "happen to find him"

by getting back in.

It was as easy as pie.

All he wanted was

to be "found out".

Then you gave him a blow job

and pocketed 800 kroner.

You got 800?

You never got 800!

I did.

Did you get more?

- No, I got 700.

Hey, that's really mean!

You got 800!

Men are bastards.

- Not all of them.

If Kim wasn't a bastard

you wouldn't be in here.

Aren't you going

to the warder's office for coffee?

What do you mean?

You're getting all lovey-dovey

with Butterlocks, aren't you?

What?

- Is there any more juice?

And you'll rat on the rest of

us if he asks you to?

I've no idea what you're on about.

I keep away from slags

who sleep with screws.

I'm not sleeping with anyone.

- Stop spoiling things, Jossi.

Chill out, Josephine.

Be seeing you, Miss Snout.

Yes, do take a pancake!

The stupid slag!

- Don't mind her, Kate.

Hello.

We don't know what we want to do.

Whether you carry on or terminate,

we will understand full well.

What do people usually do?

Just over half of them

decide to terminate.

I'm sorry I can't be more specific.

Chromosome defects can be

harmless. The baby could be normal.

But at worst it may be

severely handicapped.

I think we...

...I think

we'd better get rid of it.

That's the decision many people

make and it's easy to respect.

I'II contact the authorities,

and request -

- that they process

your case at once -

- so we can make an appointment

as soon as possible.

I'd like to know

if it's a boy or a girl.

Are you sure you want to know?

Yes.

It's a girl.

I know this is a terrible strain.

I'II book you in

as soon as possible.

Yes.

Yes.

Well?

- Yes. That's me done for today.

Have you had a good day?

- Yes.

I think there's a good feel

about the place.

I know you do.

- Most of them are easy enough.

Very touching!

Does that mean

that one of the prisoners -

- is so easy to be with -

- that it's becoming

a bit of a problem?

I'm not sure what you mean.

- Oh, I think you do.

In fact we are duty-bound

to report anything -

- even resembling a relationship

between an officer and a prisoner.

But I'd rather not.

So let's say you'll deal with it

in the next couple of days?

They phoned.

They can fit us in

at 9.30 tomorrow morning.

Then it will be

over and done with.

Yes.

I'd like us...

...to tell everyone it was

a spontaneous abortion.

That the fetus died and...

It died and it came out.

I want to hear you say

that's all right.

That's all right.

You'd better phone the prison

to say you won't be in tomorrow.

I'II phone them.

Now.

Right.

I'm on nights so I'II go straight

to the hospital in the morning.

Right?

Right.

Good morning, Josephine!

Good morning, Tina.

Good morning.

- No!

It's not my fault

I've got appendicitis.

Up you get! You want to earn

your wages, right? Come on!

What's going on?

What do you want?

Yes, what do I want?

What's this about your hands?

- I don't know.

You don't know!

No, neither do I.

I don't know anything -

- except...

...that I've got

a sick baby inside me.

OK.

OK?

I thought...

...you might be able to help me.

You and God.

Please will you help me?

Please!

Kate!

Just what do you think

you can do?

You can't help me with anything.

Do you think God just says

to heck with what you did?

I know what you did.

You left your daughter

and she died of thirst.

You did, damn you.

What's going on?

You must ask us first!

Anyway, aren't you

taking the day off?

Find something sensible to do!

What was all that about?

It was about her baby.

- Her baby?

It's a little girl.

- What was she shouting about?

Anyway...

...there's another thing.

I've asked them to assign
