But she's coming tomorrow.

Who?

- My girlfriend.

She'll be picking me up.

I'm tired.

I'm going to sleep.

Since when do you sleep at night?

Since tomorrow.

HICHAM SLEEPS HERE

HE'LL BE BACK TOMORROW!

GOOD M...

Don't.

Wubbe is awake.

Wubbe?

- Yes.

I'll go. Let me.

- Thanks to you I'm awake now.

NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN!

Scrub, scrub, scrub...

...warm feet for Wubbe.

Scrub, scrub, scrub...

...warm feet for Wubbe.

Scrub, scrub, scrub...

...warm feet for Wubbe.

Wubbe... Mom and I...

...we did something wonderful.

We went to Aix-la-Chapelle in Germany

for two days.

It was just great.

- Johan.

It's good to finally take the time

for things like that again.

Don't.

You see something of the world.

When someone has a dream, Wubbe,

you have to go for it.

You really have to fight

for that dream.

One for all

and all for one.

If people really love each other

that much, they have to fight.

If love is so...

- Enough.

Sorry, sweetheart. Come here.

- No. No.

What?

You need a shave.

Yes, I need a shave.

I need a shave too.

Yes, you have stubble too.

I've seen razors. Five euro.

Why do you always start here

when you shave? And not here?

I don't know.

- Why always here?

I've got stiff bristles here.

Here too.

But here it's soft.

You have to shave against the grain.

Very slowly.

Tomorrow we'll buy a razor.

On the motorcycle?

Right.

He wants to go on the motorcycle.

Did you bring your helmet?

- For sure.

Fine. We'll go by motorcycle.

And mom will take the scooter.

- No, not mom.

No, not with mom. Not with mom.

- Of course.

Mom has to get groceries too.

I don't want mom to come.

Mom doesn't need a shave.

Mom has to shave too.

She has hair in her armpits.

Not with mom. Not with mom.

It's Man's Day tomorrow.

Next week is Man's Day and next month.

Every day is Man's Day.

Tomorrow is Wubbe's Day,

Dad's Day and Mom's Day.

No mom. No mom.

- Don't hit. Calm down.

I don't want mom.

No mom. No mom.

- That's enough.

Listen, I just want us to have fun.

That it's fun with the three of us.

- No mom.

What was the deal?

No mom.

- No.

Don't hit.

Stop it with that stupid laughter.

Stop laughing.

Act like a normal child.

- Normal child.

Act normal.

I don't think the neighbor

even has a dog.

And I think you should go to sleep.

Good night.

If there's anyone who abandoned us

it's you.

You don't do nothing anymore.

Nothing at all.

I love that child very much,

but I also want other things.

I want to travel, enjoy myself,

I want sex.

Is this all there is for you?

Is it? Well, not for me.

Not for me.

What do you want?

We were going to go to Capri.

We were maybe going to buy a boat.

We were...

I really want...

This isn't the end yet, is it?

We could still do all sorts of things.

I'm not all used up yet, am I?

OK. So this is it for you, but not for me.

You can be sure of that.

Absolutely not.

Damn it, do something.

Do something.

Come here.

- No.

Come here. Come here.

Come here.

Calm down.

Calm down.

HICHAM SLEEPS HERE

HE'LL BE BACK TOMORROW!

GOOD MORNING, HICHAM

What?

- Nothing.

Will you send me a card

when he is born?

RONDO FINALE:

What else?

Plates and cutlery.

- Coming.

Breakfast?

What would you like?

- Peanut butter.

You can make it yourself.

You're a big boy.

Why, mom?

Good morning, dad.

What would you like on it?

Cheese?

So for him you will make it.

- Yes, for him I will.

Coffee?

- Yes, please.

Nice.

I want to go home.

Fine. I'll call them.

I boiled an egg for you.

Exactly 4 minutes and 40 seconds.

- And a cold water shock.

And a cold water shock.

Why don't you tell that story

about the dog.

Remember that story

about the neighbor's dog?

Mom has a different neighbor now.

But that dog does get groceries,

you know.

He does.

Honest.

That neighbor lives farther away.

By train.

How many stops?

Half an hour.

- Five.

It's only half an hour.

Will you come too and see mom?

Hey, babe.

Sorry I'm late. Got stuck in traffic.

- It's OK.

So annoying.

Not exactly cheerful here, is it?

- Let's go.

I phoned the guys.

It's party time tonight.

I told them to act normal.

Hold on.

What up, man?

What are you doing?

Sorry.

It's OK.

Nice car.

Nice car?

Nice lady.

You're not going to let him drive,

are you ma'am?

He might get another accident.

- And we'll be stuck with him again.

Hey, Mike, keep your pecker up.

Keep your pecker up.

Friends of yours?

- Shared a room with them.

It's OK, honey.

That chair... if you...

This won't work.

If we just...

- Can't you see this isn't working?

Sorry.

It just won't work.

Nice weather, isn't it?

It's warm.

Jet?

THANK YOU:

MOM:

Today is a day like any other day.

No earth-shaking news.

In the headlines...

Mom?
