- You want me to go home with you?

- How are you, does it hurt?

- I'm just a little dizzy.

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye.

Once a day, once a week,

once a month or less often?

How often do you

clean your toilets?

- Mum...

- Once a day, once a week...

Hey, what have you done there.

Hmm... Have you hurt yourself?

Did someone hit you? Hmm...

That doesn't look too good.

Check out our new poster instead.

Imaginary Friends.

Isn't that your style?

A space theme.

- Thanks for your time...

- I thought we could use...

Maybe you should go up.

G' ran says that a steak is the best

when you're hurt yourself.

- Do you like dancing?

- Yes.

- Why do you ask.

- It's nothing.

Tell me about dad.

- You've heard it 1000 times.

- But still...

I'd been checking him out

every day for a week.

I didn't dare go and say anything

to him because he was so handsome.

Then one day when I was on the

promenade he was right in front of me.

And he said 'hello' in Swedish because

he'd lived and worked in Sweden.

He asked if I wanted

to go out on his boat.

I said I wanted to. And so

we swam in the middle of the night.

And then we were together.

And then you came along.

Then I went home and

we never kept in touch.

He has your nose, by the way.

Or had, maybe I should say.

I want to go and see him.

- We're fine the way we are.

- But still...

- We can't afford any trips.

- If we get the money, though?

- We'll see.

- Promise me.

I promise to go to

the principal with you.

- Oh no.

- Oh yes!

Mum, do we have to?

You'll just get angry.

I'll be as calm and nice

and kind as anything. Trust me.

Hello, I'm Tina Johnson. Perhaps

you know my son, Tobias Johnson?

- Yes...

- The one with the mashed up nose.

Oh, yes...

The little incident yesterday.

- I'm sorry, I'm a little busy.

- So, you're busy?

Yes, I'm pretty sure the red light

was on outside the door.

- So we can agree in a time...

- Are you busy with this?

- Yes, that's right.

- Papers...

Yes. One wishes that

there were less of them.

- Now there are less! Can we talk?

- Mum!

If we just calm down a little.

What do you want?

You to see that there are children here.

Your damn duty is their safety!

- I think the school...

- Or do you want your nose pushed in?

Or to be teased during breaks?

Or to be attacked on the playground?

- Mum, come on, let's leave.

- Yes, we'll leave.

Because I don't want

my son to hear me swear.

But if you don't make sure that no one

here is threatened or hit very quickly

then I'll come back.

And then I'll be angry. Goodbye.

- You promised to be calm.

- I am calm. Where's this Marten?

- Come on, say it! Go on!

- What the hell are you doing?

- What's it ti you?

- You listen to me!

- Why do you hit smaller kids?

- You butt out you old bag!

- What if I said your dad was a sh*t?

- No one says anything about him!

No one! You bloody

old bag... You bloody...

What are you staring at?

Get out of here.

Nine planets travel around

our sun. First Mercury

then Venus, Earth,

Mars, Jupiter, Saturn...

- You have quite a mother.

- I told her not to come.

- She's cool, I think.

- Do you?

- And pretty.

- Maybe she is.

Saturn is surrounded by three rings

made up of small particles.

- Saturn is the second largest...

- You want to come to my birthday party?

- When is it?

- In two and a half weeks.

- Then I probably can.

- That's as far as I got.

Thank you very much, Sara.

Tsatsiki?

Would you like to

show is your planet?

Well, it's very nice.

But the sea theme is the next project.

I see.

- Do you know... do you know?

- No.

- Sara is also going to Maria's party.

- She's pretty.

Maria is as well.

- You going to date her?

- I don't know, Are you? With Aaria.

- Maybe later, in a while.

- I'll probably also wait.

- There'll be dancing at the party.

- Who said so?

- Sara, But I'm no good.

- Me neither.

Maybe you can practice.

- What are you going to wear?

- Something red maybe.

- Then you stand out.

- A suit is quite nice.

But I haven't got one.

And back again... D...

Great! You'll be a rock star soon.

Okay, let's go again.

Guess which national

colours these are?

- Finland.

- No, Greece.

- Why must Marten come here?

- Why not?

He needs something to do

and he's very talented.

For being an idiot.

He comes once a week to play.

That's alright...

It looks wonderful.

Delicious...

What do you do to show

someone you like them?

You can give them something...

flowers or something.

We drew hearts when I was small.

I drew a heart for a guy.

God, I was crazy

in love with him.

But it wasn't that he was

handsome or anything.

But there was something

with his voice.

So I'm bowled

over and in love.

lt's probably a

family trait.

lt's a pity you're not here, because

then we could have talked about love.

Although I think Gran knows

quite a bit about love as well.

But now I have to go to bed,

because I'm getting up really early.

Ti kanete? Ti kanete...

- It means, How are you in Greek.

- Well, I'm fine.

My motorcycle seems not okay

Ah! This is your helmet

- Kid's one...

- Wonderful!

- No one says Kids

- We still does

In our home town

Thank you for a ride

Who do you like better

Mom or me?

You came one hour early

You're too motivated

Be quiet and come in

I will come in very quietly

That's it...

It was a dream

Wash your face then you won't be sleepy

- Did you open it?

- See after washing your face

Hi!

You lazy, too?

I'm here to wash my face

I like studying

So did I, but teacher

doesn't listen to me any more

Our monkey, my teacher is so nice

I wish I had a mother like yours

- I will be a singer!

- I will be a diver

Good job

Watch well

I can dive for 42 seconds, look!

What Maria said to Hart?

She's just staring him

- What color is her eye?

- Blue

Same as Saharh, prettiest one

How about dance?

I will learn how to dance

and then teach you

I found it!

Well done!

One, two

Try this, holding like this.

- Wait... okay.

- Which foot starts? This one?

It's important you feel

the music in your body.

- Understand? So it's right...

- Can I try?

Can't we go out dancing sometime?

Some night.

- Just you and I.

- I need a suit as well.

- Yeah, sure.

- You should see how it is at home.

- It's totally different to the city.

- Can we buy it on Friday?

After school?

Hey... we were going to

practice the jive later.

You have to try and

imagine the music.

It's like, you have to

feel it in the body.

- That's all I know.

- What are we going to do now?

I'm going with

mum to buy a suit.

Hi, Tina couldn't come today.

Jump on and I'll drive you home.

Tsatsiki... hmm?

- You promised and then forgot it!

- Not at all.

- Stop playing.

- Where's my suit, then?

We can buy the suit another

day. Okay? Any day.

I can't now, the demo must be ready

tonight or we don't do the record.

It's really important,

you know that.

Can you stop playing, please!

Hey, I'm sorry.
