Son, listen... You go to school

and I'll call you tonight.

575

00:
43:34,250 -- 00:43:37,249

We'll talk tonight.

576

00:
43:38,708 -- 00:43:41,207

Don't worry.

577

00:
43:41,375 -- 00:43:42,374

Okay, darling?

578

00:
43:48,583 -- 00:43:50,624

I should have told you...

I'm sorry...

579

00:
43:50,791 -- 00:43:51,874

Yesterday...

580

00:
43:53,833 -- 00:43:58,332

I was told that a child said

581

00:
43:59,375 -- 00:44:01,207

I had shown him...

582

00:
44:01,375 -- 00:44:02,415

or her my penis.

583

00:
44:08,625 -- 00:44:10,332

I'm sorry, but...

584

00:
44:11,875 -- 00:44:12,915

that is...

585

00:
44:14,041 -- 00:44:15,624

really far out!

586

00:
44:20,958 -- 00:44:23,415

Now Marcus's mother was also told, so...

587

00:
44:25,333 -- 00:44:26,374

By whom?

588

00:
44:30,458 -- 00:44:32,082

Hello, Lucas!

589

00:
44:38,333 -- 00:44:38,957

Hi.

590

00:
44:42,458 -- 00:44:44,249

Not now, guys.

591

00:
44:46,750 -- 00:44:47,707

Grethe here?

592

00:
44:47,958 -- 00:44:50,749

I thought you were on leave.

593

00:
44:51,041 -- 00:44:52,290

I just need to...

594

00:
44:57,791 -- 00:44:59,499

What are you doing here?

What's going on?

595

00:
45:02,666 -- 00:45:03,587

I need to speak to you.

596

00:
45:05,666 -- 00:45:07,082

I'm busy now.

597

00:
45:14,291 -- 00:45:16,749

Go home.

Leave Grethe alone.

598

00:
45:19,000 -- 00:45:20,040

Grethe!

599

00:
45:24,458 -- 00:45:25,749

Grethe come back!

600

00:
45:28,041 -- 00:45:29,040

Stop it!

601

00:
45:30,000 -- 00:45:30,957

Where are you going?

602

00:
45:31,416 -- 00:45:33,457

This is ridiculous.

603

00:
45:33,625 -- 00:45:35,832

I asked you not to come!

604

00:
45:37,416 -- 00:45:39,040

I didn't hurt anyone.

605

00:
45:40,125 -- 00:45:40,999

Stay where you are!

606

00:
45:41,500 -- 00:45:43,457

How could you?

You disgust me!

607

00:
45:43,625 -- 00:45:45,499

What the devil have I done?

608

00:
45:46,166 -- 00:45:48,499

It's not right that we meet here.

609

00:
45:48,666 -- 00:45:51,374

I'll tell you what is wrong.

610

00:
45:52,625 -- 00:45:54,290

You called Marcus's mother

611

00:
45:54,458 -- 00:45:57,249

and now they don't allow him to come.

612

00:
45:58,416 -- 00:46:00,416

In your opinion, how

do you think he's feeling now?

613

00:
46:01,375 -- 00:46:04,790

I believe the kids.

They never lie.

614

00:
46:06,416 -- 00:46:08,332

Leave Marcus alone. Got it?

615

00:
46:08,916 -- 00:46:11,582

Leave my family out of it.

616

00:
46:11,750 -- 00:46:13,582

It's you who have to my kids alone.

617

00:
46:13,750 -- 00:46:14,874

You are sick!

618

00:
46:15,041 -- 00:46:17,040

Klara is a young innocent girl.

619

00:
46:18,875 -- 00:46:19,676

So Klara is the one?

620

00:
46:22,083 -- 00:46:24,083

- Grethe, so it's about Klara?

- What is it, Johan?

621

00:
46:25,000 -- 00:46:27,707

- Let's go.

- What did she say?

622

00:
46:29,208 -- 00:46:31,082

She's my best friend's daughter.

You know that?

623

00:
46:31,291 -- 00:46:32,582

Come on.

624

00:
46:35,541 -- 00:46:37,540

Sh*t, it's Klara!

625

00:
46:38,166 -- 00:46:39,332

I need to talk to Theo.

626

00:
46:40,083 -- 00:46:40,999

Come on.

627

00:
46:43,291 -- 00:46:44,332

What are you doing here?

628

00:
46:46,125 -- 00:46:47,446

Why is Ulla crying in the office?

629

00:
46:47,583 -- 00:46:48,749

Go now, Lucas.

630

00:
46:48,916 -- 00:46:50,582

What the f***?

631

00:
46:51,250 -- 00:46:51,874

We have nothing to talk about.

632

00:
46:52,041 -- 00:46:54,915

Go home!

633

00:
46:55,500 -- 00:46:56,500

Are you out of your mind?

634

00:
46:56,541 -- 00:46:58,207

Maybe. Run along.

635

00:
46:59,583 -- 00:47:00,790

What are you doing?

636

00:
47:02,791 -- 00:47:04,040

Just go, Lucas.

637

00:
47:36,666 -- 00:47:37,707

Hi, Theo.

638

00:
47:39,625 -- 00:47:40,915

We need to talk.

639

00:
47:51,500 -- 00:47:53,061

OK. The others are asleep...

Come on in.

640

00:
47:57,708 -- 00:47:59,915

I'll get us a drink.

641

00:
48:20,291 -- 00:48:22,749

I made lemonade.

642

00:
48:24,791 -- 00:48:26,124

If you're thirsty...

643

00:
48:30,166 -- 00:48:31,082

Thank you.

644

00:
48:31,708 -- 00:48:33,082

Listen,

645

00:
48:34,083 -- 00:48:35,957

we need to talk about this.

646

00:
48:44,625 -- 00:48:46,165

Yes...

What are they saying?

647

00:
48:49,000 -- 00:48:52,082

You should you ask your daughter.

648

00:
48:52,250 -- 00:48:54,332

To me, they said nothing.

649

00:
48:54,958 -- 00:48:56,957

But this is becoming incredibly absurd.

650

00:
49:00,375 -- 00:49:04,207

You and I, we have to sit down

and clear up what's happened here

651

00:
49:04,375 -- 00:49:06,165

and then go and see Grethe

652

00:
49:08,083 -- 00:49:09,957

before it gets out of hand.

653

00:
49:19,291 -- 00:49:21,082

You want me to ask Klara?

654

00:
49:21,916 -- 00:49:24,915

- Is this what you want?

- That I ask Klara?

655

00:
49:25,166 -- 00:49:27,082

Of course. Why?

656

00:
49:29,916 -- 00:49:30,957

I know my little child and

657

00:
49:31,125 -- 00:49:33,915

she doesn't lie. She never has.

658

00:
49:38,583 -- 00:49:40,124

Why would she lie now?

659

00:
49:44,583 -- 00:49:46,165

I don't know,

660

00:
49:47,083 -- 00:49:49,040

but she does about this.

661

00:
50:00,333 -- 00:50:02,249

Damn, Lucas...

662

00:
50:02,416 -- 00:50:04,290

I have not touched your daughter.

663

00:
50:13,833 -- 00:50:15,499

You know I haven't.

664

00:
50:18,708 -- 00:50:20,124

Do you believe me

665

00:
50:20,500 -- 00:50:22,207

or not?

666

00:
50:25,208 -- 00:50:26,624

I don't know.

667

00:
50:32,000 -- 00:50:34,957

Theo, I have not touched your daughter.

668

00:
50:35,125 -- 00:50:37,124

I don't know.

669

00:
50:49,333 -- 00:50:50,624

What is he doing here?

670

00:
50:50,791 -- 00:50:52,832

He's not supposed to be here.

671

00:
50:53,000 -- 00:50:54,915

I guess not.

672

00:
50:55,791 -- 00:50:57,874

- Lucas, go away.

- What do you believe I have done?

673

00:
50:58,083 -- 00:50:59,207

Get out!

674

00:
50:59,375 -- 00:51:01,874

What do you think I did?

675

00:
51:02,791 -- 00:51:06,207

Shut up and go away!

I do not wanna talk to you!

676

00:
51:06,541 -- 00:51:07,415

Get away from here!

677

00:
51:07,583 -- 00:51:10,790

You pervert, I forbid you to sit

on our couch!

678

00:
51:10,958 -- 00:51:12,915

I don't want to see you again!

679

00:
51:13,166 -- 00:51:14,749

I'll cut your dick!

680

00:
51:21,583 -- 00:51:22,332

Are you crazy?

681

00:
51:22,500 -- 00:51:23,781

If you touched my daughter,

682

00:
51:24,500 -- 00:51:27,040

I'll blow your head up,

683

00:
51:27,750 -- 00:51:30,582

and I think you did,

because that's what she says you did.

684

00:
51:33,000 -- 00:51:35,540

You wanna f*** up my life,

is that it?

685

00:
51:35,875 -- 00:51:37,999

Look at me!

686

00:
51:38,166 -- 00:51:39,499

What are you doing?

687

00:
51:41,416 -- 00:51:42,290

Hi, Klara.

688

00:
51:42,666 -- 00:51:43,957

Hi, Lucas.

689

00:
51:45,916 -- 00:51:47,165

Klara, go back to your room.
