The Idiots Page #3

Of not mixing...

Residential areas, private areas

with institutions...

Oh that kind of policy?

No, it's a myth. I think.

- How little we know!

- It's not on nowadays.

No, no, goodness, no.

It's just a bit of old nonsense.

The other people who've been

to see the house seemed to object.

- To what?

- The institution down the road.

- Oh, yes.

- A peculiar way of thinking.

But one does meet such people,

even today.

- Most peculiar.

- It is rather an old house.

Where is it, precisely?

Is it far?

- It's next door.

- Your next door neighbours.

Yes... and they've been coming here

a bit...

... while the house has been empty.

Of course, that can stop.

But the retards like picking nuts.

They pick nuts in the autumn.

But you have no objection to...

the mentally handicapped?

Objections to the mentally handicapped?

Of course not.

I think it's fascinating.

It's fascinating to follow...

... to follow people like that.

I follow them a lot...

... when I see there's a documentary

on TV...

... it interests me a lot.

Their behaviour is far more innocent...

My husband had... at one time...

a cousin...

... who married into a family with

mentally retarded. Or he had a...

Your cousin was married to a retard?

- No, no. He wasn't married to one.

- Would you like to meet them?

- They've come for a cup of tea.

- They're here now?

They do pop in now and then.

Wouldn't that be nice?

Damn it, yes.

- We'll meet a couple, then go.

- Susanne, line up the retards.

- Our new neighbors want to say hi.

- It's a lovely site.

- Come and say hi to the lady.

- Say hi to your new neighbors.

Finn has got a cousin who's a retard.

- So you know what it's like.

- Say hello nicely.

Actually, Finn's cousin is...

oh, never mind.

We could start by saying

Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

- For what?

- For using the garden.

They so much need fresh air

and we haven't many possibilities.

Can we go on coming?

-... Coming here, I mean.

- Yes, no problem.

- That's really kind of you.

- We didn' even dare to hope...

Did you hear that?

We can use their garden.

Use it like crazy.

Where zayn? Where zayn?

The Seine? The Seine's in Paris.

Nice meeting you...

I could fetch a bit of paper...

It's a bit soon for paper.

We've things to do first.

But we'll be seeing you, right?

We'll see you

before I can count to ten.

See you!Definitely!

Bye-bye!

Bye-bye, Vibeke.

- Well Karen, we've sold the house.

- Have they bought the house?

No, definitely not.

He's just having you on.

I thought they were all very nice.

Jeppe was...

Interesting to hear that they were nice.

The idea doesn't seem... polite.

No, but...

No, you could put it that way.

No, no, no, Ped!

- Hi.

- Hi. Smile, everyone.

What's your name?

Shall we find some sodas and stuff?

Would you like that?

That's a good idea.

- Well, old bean.

- You're still young.

Will you pass me a soda?

If there are any left?

Please leave me alone...

- It's a bit crooked.

- Would you like to buy one?

No.

What are you doing?

- I'm here on vacation.

- On vacation?

On vacation?

What the f*** am I meant to say?

- Are you on vacation?

- What the hell am I meant to say?

What's with him?

- All this sentimental crap...

- What's wrong with that?

It's lovely.

They're cute.

- Cute?

- Yes.

Cute? You haven't got

the slightest f***ing idea.

About what? They're visiting

and they like it here.

What's that?

- A camera.

- What for?

I was wondering

if one might take a photo.

A photo? You want to take

a photo of them?

Hey, let's measure

their skulls and gas them.

This is great. It's just a pity

we can't capture their genes on film.

Henrik has a camera.

May he take a photo of you?

Yes!

Hold his hand.

He'd be so pleased.

You're all looking great.

Except you, Henrik. Smile!

Henrik, Smile.

Yes, they were highly credible.

They were really good at it.

One has to be able to look

other people in the face afterwards.

That one can...

That one doesn't take the piss

out of people the whole time.

Any retards out here?

Shut up, Nana.

Cooee! Miguel?

I get all jumpy without you drooling

over me all day.

Where's Jeppe the retard?

What's the matter with you?

They really got to you, didn't they?

Wow, it's great to be here.

Karen?

Oh, Karen, damn it!

Susanne?

Karen's gone into spass.

Karen's gone into spass.

Karen, come on, it's lovely.

Lovely water. Come on.

Is it lovely?

Look, you're floating

all by yourself.

Axel speaking.

I'm at baby swimming, damn it.

You can't fire me for paternity leave

when I'm actually on it.

You look like a d*ckhead in that, Axel.

Dressed to kill.

When are we going to talk?

- I've got to pop into the agency.

- What for?

I've got to work on a pay-off.

A slogan.

I have to wear my best gear

to see the best people...

... and win the best customers.

- I don't see why you have to go.

- To work.

We're trying to steal a client

from another agency.

Benedikte. Scandinavia's biggest

powdered food manufacturer.

When are we going to talk?

- When I'm through.

- When will that be?

When she slips of the hook

or when we land her.

- Any time you like, Babe.

- I would like...

But not now.

I'm just so f***ing busy.

- When I get back.

- Promise?

- We'll talk all you want.

- Promise?

- Yes, I promise.

- But you have a wife and baby.

That's history. Can you imagine me

pushing a pram? I'd go crazy.

It's so f***ing middle class.

... I don't want a wife and kid.

I want you.

Woops. Here comes reality.

I'll be back in a jiffy.

Bye, Sugar.

Oh, Katrine!

You wade right into it,

with both legs.

What did he want with her?

To screw, shag, f***, make love.

- All four?

- All four.

Katrine claims you held

some very anti-middle-class views.

- Or ideologies.

- I do.

What's up, darling?

Based on what?

Your ideologies?

- "Anti-middle-class ideologies"?

- Yes.

Mainly that there is something

more than meaningfulness.

And purposefulness.

Oh? She made it sound like

something to do with the family.

Katrine played a few tricks on Axel,

I've heard.

Yes, but damn it, they were...

... more in the

land-him-in-the-sh*t genre.

A Corporation is a Religion.

"Child's Food".

What the f*** do you mean by that?

It's the pay-off.

Child's Food.

CHlLD'S FOOD

It means it's easy.

It's food...

... and it's so easy that even a child

can make it.

I'd f***ing well figured that out.

But the company does actually

make children's foods.

- I didn't know that.

- You didn't know that?

You should have checked

before coming up with such crap.

A pathetic slip of paper.

Shut up when I'm talking to you!

CHlLD'S FOOD

- Is it me personally you don't like?

- No.

They're using Hjart at the moment

and they know it's hopeless.

But you've stoked

Benedikte's fires nicely.

On the phone she sounds ready.

She's crazy for you.

For some reason.

I've made some flashy folders

with charts and all.

They're for another product,

and she won't look at them anyway.
