Love and Rage Page #2

- If you'd like?

- Of course I would.

- Cool.

- I'd love to.

- It's a plan

Jesus...

- Hi.

- Hi.

- So, Lars is here?

- No.

So, who is it?

I don't know how to tell you...

We went out for dinner.

It ran late.

He called me.

- We haven't talked since dad...

- That's so out of line, mom.

What do you mean?

He's my teacher.

- Hi, Daniel.

- Hi.

I understand if this feels

a little awkward, but...

We didn't plan for it to happen.

Daniel...

Why are you so upset?

Are you jealous?

No. I couldn't care less.

It's just sex.

It's not like I'm stealing him from...

I don't want to hear about it, okay?

I'm just trying to...

...enjoy myself.

And to get a life.

You should try it, too.

You don't have to go to Brussels

for five years to get a life!

- What makes you say that?

- You went because of Pierre, right?

Daniel, you're confusing things.

I made twice the money in Brussels

compared to here.

And dad didn't make any money.

- He couldn't even make conversation.

- We talked all the time.

Did you f*** Pierre already then?

What?

Did you screw him back then?

- Stop it.

- Was that why dad killed himself?

How do you think it was for me

to leave my 8-year-old with a lunatic?

How dare you?

He wasn't a lunatic.

You don't know

a damn thing about that.

No, but...

You're jealous, aren't you?

Aren't you?

Daniel...

I will always be your mother.

Right, Sweetie?

There.

Wrong... again.

Only the run.

- Can't you hit the note?

- Yes!

Then do it!

Close your eyes and focus! Try again.

Again.

Again.

Again.

Again.

That's it!

- Where are you going?

- I have an appointment.

- Won't you stay a while?

- Sorry, I can't.

Why not?

Because I have an appointment.

- Forget the appointment.

- I can't, Daniel.

And I don't want to.

- Why don't you want to?

- I have a rehearsal with the girls.

- Let's do something together later.

- I don't know if I can.

- Like what?

- We could catch a movie.

Daniel, please don't...

- You'll just be a little bit late.

- You're so bad...

Don't...!

- You're crazy.

- I'm what?

- You're crazy.

- What's that again?

You're crazy.

F***, man.

I'm sorry.

What kept you?

Rehearsals ran late.

I'm so hungry...

- But it's started already.

- Then let's go watch it.

- Hello. You can't bring food inside.

- I'll finish it on my way there.

- You must leave it here.

- I promise, I'll be careful.

You can finish it after.

- But the film is starting.

- Too bad, but those are the rules.

- Come on, hon.

- No way.

- What the hell?

- You're not hearing me.

Happy now?

You're not getting in. You should learn

some manners and follow the rules.

- We are! She just threw out her food.

- That's too bad.

What do you mean 'too bad'?

She just threw out her dinner.

- Not my problem.

- Fine. Which is why we'll go in.

- Are you deaf? I just told you not to.

- Let go of me, a**hole!

Ouch...

- Daniel!

- Get away from me!

- Come on!

- Daniel, put down the...

Stop!

What are you doing?

- Daniel, what the hell are you doing?

- Come on!

Daniel! Calm down, Daniel!

What the hell are you doing?

I've never done

anything like this before...

That's fine... come with us, please.

Take off your shoes.

But when someone

hasn't really done anything...

There's a blanket.

And if you need to go to the toilet,

just ring this bell.

How long are you holding me for?

Please tell me when I'll...

I can't do this.

Open the door, please!

Open the door!

Hello?

I can't breathe!

Open up, please!

Listen. I can't do this!

I can't take it!

- Daniel.

- Yes?

Join me, please.

- Hi. Kristian.

- Daniel.

Won't you have a seat?

- What happened at the cinema?

- I don't know. I got upset.

Right.

Wouldn't you rather sit?

You got upset, you say.

And how are you feeling now?

- A little strange.

- Strange how?

- A strange feeling in my body.

- Have you felt like that before?

When my dad died.

It felt a little like this.

- When did your dad die?

- February 7th of last year.

Okay.

Was he ill?

- No.

- I see.

He took his own life.

Aha.

Do you know why?

Yes, he had a depres...

He was depressed.

He was different from other people.

And you?

No, I'm not.

I think you need to talk to someone

about what happened to your dad.

Don't you agree?

Yes.

Good.

Close the window.

Stop that.

Daniel, please stop doing that.

Would you listen to me?

How did it start for dad?

Don't do this, Daniel.

You're not like your father.

I'm taking a bath.

Hi.

I'm so sorry.

I understand if you're upset.

I really do.

I don't know what happened.

I don't know what came over me.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I can't stand it at home.

I can't stand being

around my mother, she...

I need to get away.

You can stay here,

if you don't want to go home.

I'd really...

I'd like that.

- You would?

- Yeah, if you want to.

- Are you serious?

- Mmm.

Of course I want to.

When do I get to meet her?

- We'll have dinner.

- I think it's way too soon for you.

I'll come visit you, Mom.

Martin...

This is cool.

And can I borrow this?

But it's all here now.

We have joint custody now.

How hungry are you?

I don't understand...

What's going on?

- You seem totally unfocused.

- I'm not.

Just play what it says on the sheet.

It's quite clear: Piano.

You told me to ignore my emotions

and focus on momentum.

Daniel, listen.

I know what's going on.

You should take care that Sofie

doesn't ruin everything for you.

Sofie is a sweet girl, but you've got

a very important concert up ahead.

And if you don't do as I say,

we'll drop it.

Why am I getting a present?

- Does it look nice on me?

- My God, your neck is way too big.

You bad boy.

I love you.

I do.

- Hi, Daniel.

- Hi.

How's the concert coming along?

Are you ready?

Not quite yet.

But soon.

- Are you nervous?

- Yes.

It's my first time...

Pierre and I have decided to help you

get to New York.

Thank you.

Juilliard is looking forward

to hearing you play.

- They're coming here? Okay.

- This is opportunity knocking!

- Practise!

- I already do.

- You'll do fine.

- Thank you.

- See you.

- Yes.

- Does that sound silly?

- No.

Hi, Daniel!

- We're rehearsing here today, right?

- Yes, the other rooms were occupied.

- Alright then, Sofie.

- Yes, I'll be on my way.

- I should come see you play one day.

- Yes, you should.

- We play in Stengade.

- Stengade? Okay.

- Thanks.

- You're welcome, Sofie.

- Pierre is our teacher now, cool, huh?

- It's okay.

- It's fierce!

- Yes.

A lot of the girls find him hot

even though he's 42.

- Oh, okay.

- He doesn't look 42, does he?

No, he doesn't.

- What's up?

- Why are you so cheerful today?

Because you moved in,

and school's going well.

Why are you putting on make-up?

Because I want

to look nice for you.

I like you better without.

- Better?

- Let's see.

- Did you even remove any?

- Honestly...

- I can't tell.

- Okay, I'll wipe it again.

- How about now?

- Much better. Much better!
