We follow Leon, an institutionalized kleptomaniac who is loking for Åsa, to whom he has a ten year old deal to get married. We meet Leon's brother, Trygve, who fetches Leon at the institution to celebrate his birthday, but who himself has plans to use his leave from prison to run away.

-You did this for me, John.

Well before my time.

It only took 20 minutes with

the brass before everyone agreed.

And I mean everyone.

Understand?

Come on...

You all dressed up?

Thanks for doing this for me.

You're a good man.

Who's coming?

Who's escorting me?

Hope it's not one of the rookies.

We wouldn't let you out

on escorted leave with rookies.

I've worked something out.

Hope you'll be pleased.

You have twelve minutes.

Enjoy your weekend!

Good luck, Trygve.

-Hi...

-Hello.

-You'll only have one escort.

-How did you manage that?

I trust you.

So they trust you too.

Who's it going to be?

Hey...

Come on.

-You all dressed up?

-We're going to a birthday party.

-Are you home alone?

-Yes.

Do you live here?

Where are your parents?

Have you traveled far

to meet that guy?

Pretty far.

What do you do?

I'm a stewardess.

I travel.

All the time.

Can I have my purse?

I need my purse.

She's here to meet a boyfriend

she hasn't seen for eleven years.

They agreed to get married

if they were still single at 25.

Can I have my purse?

What's going on here?

We're going to our dad's funeral.

No, we aren't!

Dad got sick this summer.

We have to go to an orphanage.

Or be split up with families.

Will you relax?

Here. Take your purse.

And get lost!

Shut up!

Hey...

Good to see you again, Mads.

How's it going?

I took care of everything.

Hawaii, Trygve?

Trygve's brother thinks Trygve's

in Hawaii when he's locked up.

Please...

It's the welfare workers...

Mikkel?

Mikkel?

Mikkel, take it easy.

-Put that knife down.

-Do it, Mikkel.

Look at me,

and put the knife down. OK?

I know you're not stupid.

This will just make matters worse.

-OK?

-Do as she says.

Are you OK, Magne? Look at me.

What are you doing?

Do you know them?

What are you...

What are you doing here?

My name is sa.

I came to Oslo today

to visit an old boyfriend.

But then I lost my purse.

That's when I met Magne.

...Mikkel just misunderstood.

This is Leon!

I need to ask you something.

-Are you going to the funeral?

-We're staying here.

Can't we go, Mikkel?

Please?

I didn't recognize you

out of uniform.

-I'm off duty.

-Did you hit anyone?

-Fortunately not.

-Did you save the unconscious person?

Her?

Maybe. Almost.

Did you find the guy

you were looking for?

Do you ever visit

the people you save?

Are you crazy?

Visit the people I pick up?

Go visit her.

The woman you almost saved.

Never stop saving.

There's one button on the outside,

one on the inside.

Cool.

Hi.

Hi there.

It's been a while.

Four years.

-Happy birthday.

-Thank you.

Here.

-Nice.

-Thank you.

-Did you come straight from Hawaii?

-Yes. Last night.

Solely

to celebrate your birthday, Leon.

Was it cloudy in Hawaii?

Haven't you ever heard of sunblock?

Hawaii?

Trygve imports flowers to Hawaii.

They need so many leis there.

-I know a guy with a plant nursery.

-Outside Oslo.

And we fly them over there.

That's my brother!

-What are you bringing?

-Bringing?

I'm taking you out.

You don't turn 25 every day.

I want to stay here.

sa's coming.

Who's that?

sa. I've told you about her.

She saved me from the wave machine.

When I was down on the bottom.

Don't you remember?

Of course I do. She's all you've

talked about since eighth grade!

Leon has hung up posters.

You've probably seen them already.

We can't wait in here in vain

on your 25th birthday.

Maybe we could wait a little?

We bought a cake,

and maybe we'll sing for you.

You plan to keep him in here

on his birthday? You can't sit here.

-They just called them.

-Who?

A private clinic.

They can do the operation.

They've performed almost

the exact same operation before.

-Almost the same operation?

-Yes! We're gonna do it!

I just spoke to

the clinic over there.

They can perform the operation if

you meet the financial requirements.

Do we have to pay?

There is nothing we can do,

officially.

-We can't guarantee the results...

-They've had one success.

You need to understand that

it is a private hospital.

They insist on

a financial guarantee.

How much will it cost?

Relax, Milla.

Money is no problem.

It will cost 900,000.

Transportation,

room and board is additional.

We need an answer by 9 p.m. tonight

in order to make it.

-Where is this hospital?

-In America.

That's where everything happens.

We're gonna do it!

What should we do?

I have never heard of this clinic.

I wouldn't do it

even if I had the money in the bank.

I'm sorry.

900,000 divided by 10 is 90,000.

90,000 divided by 60 minutes is...

That's 1500 kroner.

1500 kroner per minute.

You're an expensive baby, Aaron.

Frode, don't go anywhere.

This is my only chance.

Understand?

They have done the operation before.

Don't, Frode. You've tried

to arrange things before.

This time it's different, Milla.

It's our only chance.

This is something you can't fix.

You can't fix this.

If these are his last hours,

I don't want you wasting them away!

This is our only chance

to get to know our boy, Frode.

This is our only chance

to fix his heart, Milla.

And if we fix that, we'll

have him for the rest of our life!

Frode!

What a place!

I have to wait here.

What if sa comes and I'm not here?

-Or if Vidar comes...

-Listen to yourself!

If sa comes here, -

- that lady will call me

on my cell phone. OK?

Let's go.

OK?

Wait here.

-Vidar told me to wear this suit.

-Relax.

-No one gets to see me naked!

-I'm taking off your shirt and tie.

Take care of this for me, OK?

There.

Do you still run?

A little?

Happy birthday to you...

-Happy birthday.

-Hi, Mads.

-This is my friend John.

-Leon.

Have a beer, Leon.

You deserve it.

Vidar says

intoxicants dull the senses.

Aren't we proof of the opposite?

I'm the one who...

I saved you.

What time is it?

Careful.

-Want me to call for help?

-No!

You can't go anywhere now.

I'm OK.

A guarantee? What do you mean?

I just explained my situation.

We need an asset-based guarantee

so we know we'll get our money back.

I need to borrow assets. If I had

any assets, I wouldn't need a loan.

I understand.

All right.

I'm sorry.

But I've been

a customer here for years.

You've defaulted too many times.

Please.

I'm sorry.

-Can't you please help me?

-I'm sorry.

Have you ever been robbed?

Have you ever been robbed?

Have you?

This is just what it feels like.

You are robbing my baby from me.

That's what it feels like!

Hi!

So you're Leon?

-Who is this?

-Susanne. Let the birthday begin!

It's your birthday?

Get anything nice?

-I got this.

-Susanne, want a hot dog?

Of course Susanne wants a hot dog!

-Stop it!

-It isn't dangerous.

This won't hurt.

Help me, Trygve.

It isn't dangerous.

-Help me, Trygve.

-Run!

-Run!

-No, I can't.

Run, dammit!

Let go of him!

-Leon!

-Trygve!

I have to run after him.

No one else can stop him.

-You have to trust me.

-Fine. Hurry!

When Leon becomes unsure, he runs.

He's always been like that.
