The Commune Page #5

---

everyone should be able to live here.

I can see why Erik fell for Emma.

I'm not naive.

I know that...

...people have needs like that,

so let's see what happens.

- Well, that settles it then.

- No, Erik. We have to vote on it.

Anyone opposed to Emma moving in

for a trial period?

- Mona?

- Yes...

I vote boom.

Right. One, two, three...

Alright then. The commune isn't ready

to accept Emma as more than a guest.

- Over to you, Steffen. Dishwasher?

- Mrs. Flint is waiting to show us hers.

She's willing to sell it to us.

Bring some dirty dishes.

- Is it big?

- It's huge.

Steffen, we need to talk about it.

I quite like doing the dishes.

But it's a hassle

to get people to take their turn.

Come back.

- We're going to...

- Come back.

- Come and sit down.

- Why, Erik? We're going to Mrs. Flint.

Come back in and sit down.

- Come back in and sit down.

- We're on our way.

How long do you need to pack your stuff

and find somewhere else to live?

- Cut it out.

- I mean it.

How long do you need to pack your stuff

and find somewhere else to live?

This is my house.

I've lived here since I was a boy.

You don't tell me how to live my life.

This is my house!

You gave this house to all of us.

- Did we ever get the paperwork?

- No, we didn't pay for it.

- So technically it's Erik's house.

- Why didn't we get the paperwork?

Because only half of you

have paid for your share!

Because I and Anna pay

for everything in this house!

- So you're the boss after all.

- Okay, I'm the boss! Stay out of it!

Do as I say!

Find somewhere else to live.

This is my house!

Shut up, Ole! Shut up, Allon!

Shut up and listen to me!

I'm sick of your bullshit, and if you

won't listen to me, then move out!

Pack your stuff and find someone else

to boss around! I've had it!

I've had it! I've had it!

- I feel sick...

- F***, he's going to faint.

Get some water, Mona.

Erik... Erik?

There...

- Here's some water.

- We'll work it out, Erik.

- I've had enough.

- We need to... Sit down, everyone.

- We will.

- I've had enough.

Hello.

Hi.

- Are you going to a party?

- No.

- I will only live to be nine years old.

- Oh. That's not a whole lot.

Do you know where the others are?

Do you want to shag?

What... what did you say?

No, we'd better wait a while.

Hi, Freja.

Sorry I'm a bit early. Your dad's

on his way with the moving van.

- Oh.

- Is your mum home?

Yes, she's upstairs.

Could you please show me to her?

I want to greet her properly.

Oh, it looks like she's left.

- Oh.

- I'll go back down.

You will? Oh...

Hi.

Sorry I wasn't there

to greet you properly.

- Don't apologise.

- Thanks.

Freja showed me up.

Oh. I'm going shopping.

I'm cooking tonight.

Want to come?

Shopping?

- Sure. I'd like that.

- Okay.

- Now?

- Yes.

Next stop the butcher's.

Just charm him,

and he'll give you a good price.

There you go.

Let me take it.

I'll carry the gold.

Ole is an old friend.

He was actually

the first person I called.

Oh. Erik didn't tell me.

It's always been a secret dream

of mine to live with Ole.

I can see why.

- Your eyes are brown.

- Yes.

Yours are blue.

I suggested that you move in.

- I'm happy you did.

- Yeah.

I think the three of us should

be able to live together.

I think Erik has a right to...

...pursue his feelings.

I'm very grateful.

As long as it doesn't get awkward

for you. Please say if it does.

I think it's going to be interesting.

I've been looking forward

to meeting you. I know you from TV.

Yeah, well...

You come across as very empathetic

on TV.

You think so?

It's nice of you to say so.

I've worked there for many years now.

Yes, I remember you

from when I was a kid.

Well...

- You're so good, Anna.

- Anna made it.

- I love sauce.

- We can tell.

- Give your son some more sauce.

- I'm against locked doors on principle.

Me too.

- Have you got like a plan?

- Yes, we all have regular cooking days.

- When you've gotta go, you've gotta go.

- They're being silly.

We rarely eat this good.

- Who knows about locks?

- Locks?

- Maybe Steffen does.

- Nobody's got a clue.

We'd better look it up.

- Beware.

- We want to know when you're in heat.

- Hi.

- Hi, sweetie.

- I'm eating at Sille's.

- Wow! You're all dressed up.

- I'm just going to eat at Sille's.

- What's his name?

- I'm just going to Sille's.

- You're going red!

Does he have a red face like yours?

You're all being mean.

- Ignore them. When will you be home?

- I'm going now.

That's so cute!

Come here.

The Vietnam war is over, but tensions

are still running high in the region.

Many diplomatic efforts to prevent

a Vietnam-Cambodia war have stranded.

A new war is a fact.

We're at 17:
48 now.

If you're having a live guest,

I'm thinking 2:
40 tops.

It's lunchtime soon.

We have a deadline. Come on.

Let's focus on our top story, Cambodia.

Yes, as long as we run Cambodia.

How many dead children do we include?

No dead children at all.

Millions will have been killed

when all this is over.

We'll omit the worst pictures

and say three minutes...

Last time we ran a Cambodia story,

the viewers were all over us.

- But that's great.

- To a certain extent.

I'd be happy with 3:30,

because then...

- What's the matter?

- I'm not really sure what's going on.

- You need some wine.

- I've got something stronger in my bag.

There you go.

- We've got plenty of time.

- It'll be fine.

I'll do it myself.

We've got plenty of time.

- I'll be fine.

- Yes.

Once upon a time there was a king...

...who carried out

a horrible experiment.

He took 60 newborn babies

and fed them and so on -

- but half of them couldn't be

touched by anyone at all.

No physical contact of any kind, ever.

Apart from that they got just as much

sleep, food and as many vitamins -

- as the others.

- What happened to them?

- Yeah?

They died.

- Give him a hug or he'll drop dead.

- Touch him!

Up to Daddy.

Stand by.

Ten, nine...

... eight, seven...

... six...

... five...

... four...

... three...

... two...

I can't.

Get Anna out. Help Anna out.

Put Preben on instead.

I can't.

Let's go.

Come.

Try to stand up.

TECHNICAL ERROR:

I'm going to Broadcasting House.

You did get the message?

I have to do it.

You don't have to, Leif.

Stop that.

You haven't been well lately.

- Well...

- It's been underway for a while.

Don't take me off.

Please don't.

The decision has been made.

You can't.

You don't tell me how to live my life.

- I'm not telling you anything...

- You have no right to take me off.

Calm down. Breathe.

- Take a deep breath and look inside.

- Drop it.

Your problems are none of my business.

Too right!

- I can do my job. I'm a professional.

- No, you can't.

- You need to do something else.

- No! I want to be here!

- I don't want to do something else.

- Spoil yourself. Do ordinary stuff.

- Go to India and talk to Sai Baba.

- Don't you talk to me like that!

- I'm going to call...

- I've been here for ages.
