Vegas Page #2

And one for myself.

Dad?

Dad?

Terje?

Wait, Terje!

I got new sneakers!

It's not like she needs them anymore.

- They haven't found her yet.

- What?.

Fantastic!

What will you do when she shows up?

You've already buried her!.

She'll be shocked!

It's good your dad

has some strong pills.

What?. Missing people

sometimes turn up again.

It's true.

Like that piano man in England.

He turned up on some beach.

He had lost his memory. Took ages

to find out where he was from.

Your mom may be walking around on

some beach, oblivious. You never know.

No, you don't.

Maybe I could borrow them?

Medicine, medicine, medicine...

Come on!

He'll figure it out soon enough.

- That she's dead as a dodo?

- Yeah.

You don't need a reason to be happy,

as long as you are happy.

Dead as a pollock.

Knock it off.

Dead as a blue whiting.

Blue whiting?

Is that a fish?

You bet!

Blue whiting.

Everyone who's happy, can

All belong to Happy land...

Everything will work out

for all of us!

Terje?

He's my uncle.

For real.

He lives with my mother's sister..

He's going to let me live with them.

He misses me.

Cute.

Thank you.

How are things here?

Fine.

OK.

Come on.

Mom?

Mom?

Mom.

Daniel and I aren't allowed

to come home until Roger leaves.

Do the authorities...

Do they get to decide

who I can live with?

Is that any of their business?

- This is just a phase.

- Where is he, mom?

The authorities say I can't tell you.

Where is he?

Hi, boss.

Give me a swig.

Want some?

Any fodder here?

Make it yourself.

Eggs and bacon.

I want you to tell me where he is.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- Are you mad at me?

- No!

Don't be stupid.

I said it had never happened before.

I got that part right.

Are they treating you well here?

Sort of.

Soon we'll be together again, Daniel.

And mommy?

If she wants to.

- We could make this nice.

- Yeah. Cool.

At least it's dry.

- There isn't any water..

- That's what he said!

There.

I'm going to bring my dad

to Denmark. And find her.

Why don't you talk about it?.

Just the two of you, alone.

She never made it to Denmark.

How can you know?

Maybe she did.

I thought

I'd start saving some money.

Good.

That's good.

Gotcha!

Gotcha!

- Look at this leaf, Wenche!

- Beautiful.

Hi, Siw.

Want me to clean your room too?

- Dance!

- Me?

No, you dance.

I'll just stand here.

Come on, Thorstein!

- Come on!

- No way!

Promise me that it will work out.

Thorstein!

Promise me that it will work out.

Soon.

Do you promise?

OK.

Yes, I promise.

Get off of there!

She is my sister...

They just need to see

that we are happy together.

That Daniel is OK here.

Lillian has a job now,

so they can't use that against her.

- Isn't that great?. At Kiwi.

- No, at Rema.

I can see you confusing

Rimi and Rema, but Kiwi?

It's important that they see

that you and Daniel are happy.

She's here.

Don't worry.

Sorry about that.

Christ...

- Roger has made venison stew.

- Lovely.

Hope you're "game".

Could you...serve?

Me?

- Water?.

- Yes, please.

Thank you.

There!

Cheers.

- Cheers, Daniel.

- Cheers.

No!

I'm sorry.

Sh*t!

Come here.

I'm sorry.

It's OK. You were just worried

that you couldn't come home again.

She understands that.

Right?.

He has to go, doesn't he?

He has to go.

He has to go.

At least I have a job.

They can't use that against us.

Did you buy everything in the store?

We have to celebrate.

Don't know how long

we'll have together.

I'm going to Denmark with dad.

You're going home.

They'll love me!

Uncle Thorstein is taking care of it.

How much have you saved?

480 kroner.

Didn't you almost have 1000?

Yes.

Is it wrong

that I never contribute any money?

Like I said:

You just get a key.

- Isn't there an alarm here?

- Sure.

My birthday.

They're collecting money

for some new penguins.

But how many penguins do you need?

It's important that I don't freeload.

All yours, nut case!

Are they all related?

Herrng have millions of offspring.

I don't think they know who's

a mom, dad, sister or brother.

But who really knows that?.

I do.

You think you do.

But you don't know.

We don't know.

- What do you mean by that?.

- I have a father.

Someone who knocked up my mother.

But he may have slept around

with a lot of other women.

Like your mom.

Or yours.

Both of you.

- So we're siblings?

- Brothers and sisters, man.

- Hi!

- Hi.

- Are you at work?

- Come on.

Get out of here.

You stay here.

Do...

Do-de-do-de-do...

This isn't cool.

Not at all.

- At least my mom is somewhere warm.

- Where?

Las Vegas.

What's she do there?

Works at a casino.

Makes a fortune.

She keeps wanting me to come visit.

But she's given up asking me.

She asks my aunt instead.

Caesars Palace.

It's awesome!

Give ten dollars to the doorman

before you go in.

Then he'll remember you

if you get in trouble.

- Let's give him thirty.

- And you wonder why you're broke?

Don't play the slots.

They're for the tourists.

But just past the slots

is the Million Dollar. Mill.

We play for 100 dollars.

Not 10, not 50, but 100.

That gives much better odds.

We play the combination

and win millions!

Ka-ching!

That would be enough.

In your dreams.

Come on!

Jerk.

Ka-ching!

Isn't it enough?

How much are you missing?

- Around 1000.

- Marianne?

Today he's 1000 short, tomorrow 2000.

- He has no idea how to save!

- Yes, I do.

Anyone want a kebab?

We have to do something, Thomas.

How much are you short, right now?

I'm short 500 koner..

Look!

Get out.

I see.

I understand. But he's sitting here

with two ferry tickets to Denmark.

Yes, but this could be

just what the two of you need.

I'll tell him.

He'll be pleased to hear that.

This isn't a permanent decision

you have to make.

Stay with us as long as you want.

Or until you can move home.

Roger hasn't moved out, Thomas.

- And it doesn't look likely.

- He will move out!

I hear you, but we have to

relate to the situation today.

She has a job, she doesn't want

him there anymore. She's doing fine.

He's going to move out!

I think that's enough.

At least

we have had a chance to meet.

Think about it, Thomas.

And we'll talk again in a few weeks.

Lillian?

I haven't seen her for days.

Have you quit?.

Work, mom!

No.

I just didn't feel up to it today.

- What is this?

- Can you call, tell them I'm sick?

- What the hell is this?

- It's nothing.

- What is this?

- Nothing.

Honey...

He has to go, mom.

Now!

- Don't you get it?.

- I can't.

I need someone who loves me too.

Loves you?

You call this love, mom?

You call this love?

Thomas!

- I want you to leave.

- What?.

I want you to leave.

Please leave now.

- Am I the one that has to leave?

- Yes.

Are we the ones that have to leave?

Me and Daniel?

Me and Daniel?

Do we have to leave?

I will find her..

- Bye.

- Have a nice trip.

Terje, have a nice trip.

Bye.

Our little Columbus.

See you tomorrow.

No!

No!

- Hi.

- Hi...

We were just in the middle of...
