I've been kind of thinking of

going to see him some time.

I never got his new address.

Couldn't you try

to make up with Rolf again?

He wants to be like

a father for you.

You could give him a chance?

For me?

'Mamas moon means Mini

Mini's moon means Mama

Mama's moon means

Mini and Mama.

Sit up straight.

What've you done?

'90':
mugged.

'BY Whom?

"A gang...

Who were they?

Never saw them before.

Can I see you tomorrow?

Yes, when?

- 7:
30. Outside the carnival?

- Okay.

By the way, did you hearth cd?

No. I haven't had time yet.

Have you got a cd with Satie?

- Anything special?

- Yea, piano.

I've only got this one here.

I'll take it.

What kind of shitty

music is that?

I won't make training today.

- Come on now.

- I don't have time.

- Why not?

- I have to get away.

Ivo won't like it a bit

- What are you doing?

- I can't.

What am I supposed to do then?

- You're meeting her, aren't you?

- Yea. So what?

Damned traitor.

- Are you jealous?

- Nope.

You'll never f*** her anyway

Damn...

Switch.

And we don't miss

any more training sessions...

Okay?

- Where's the gun?

- What are you doing?

- It's gone. Where the hell is it?

- Never mind.

Where is it?

- Did you sell it?

- Maybe I did.

You didn't sell it. Go get it.

I want to show it to a buddy

What buddy? You haven't

got any buddies..

Get it, damn it, it's mine!

You shouldn't play with

dangerous toys like that.

Did you f*** her?

I knew it. The wrong kind.

You stupid enough to think

she'd want to do it with a n*gger?

What's the matter?

I saw you at the carnival.

- Don't say anything to Mama.

- How could you?

Don't tell Mama,

she can't take it.

With your own stepfather. Icsh!

- I love him.

- What?

I love him. But you wouldn't

understand. You don't know love.

- How do you know what I know'?

- You know nothing about love.

- You want me to hit you or what?

- Then hit me. Hit me!

That's all you know how!

Thank you.

That's not a little one.

This is blood, sweat and tears...

Sorry I didn't come.

That's okay.

Did you wait long?

No, not very.

I couldn't come.

I had to go somewhere.

You're not mad are you?

Oh... Thanks for the loan.

It was good.

But... This isn't it...

This is another pianist.

Is it? I must've taken the wrong one...

at home. This is good too.

- Can I borrow it?

- Sure.

Hey...

Can we do something now?

Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t...

Left...

- Right...

- Sh*t...

Let's go...

Almost!

I lied to you this morning.

I didn't go anywhere Saturday.

It was...well, Papa...

- didn't want us to meet

Why not?

He doesn't know you like I do.

If he did it'd be different.

John-John.

Hi.

This your chick?

Classmate.

Oh. Raimo.

Elisabeth.

- How are you doing, boy?

- Good.

Not good to mess with him

when he's mad.

It wasn't that bad was it?

Thanks for the tip.

Not any day you get one like that.

You found a real golden egg...

You want some smoke?

Moroccan. Good price.

For old friendship's sake. Good stuff.

- No business?

- No business.

How about you, sugar pie?

No.

That's okay, you shouldn't

mess with that kind of sh*t.

See you in the next life!

When we're rich and famous.

- Who was that?

- What...oh...

It was...a neighbor

I hardly know him.

When I was little, I wasn't allowed

to go further than here.

Mama always said watch out

for water. I didn't cross the bridge

But you're older now.

Yes.

- You want to swim?

- What...here?

- Where are your parents?

- Asleep.

Are you with somebody?

- No.

- That guy at the party?

Him... No, why do you think that?

He just looked like it.

No. That was my cousin

Sure?

Yes...

Hello!?

- I thought I heard voices.

- Lt's just me.

Do you know what time it is?

- Where have you been so late?

- I've been out.

Out?

With Camilla.

It's time you came up to bed.

Don't you think?

Yes, father.

'BYE-bye

- Bye

John-John, wait a minute...

Hows it going with your

writing assignment?

- Good.

- Really?

How come you haven't

handed it in then?

John-John. Theater Science is

no game. You have to work hard!

- Theater is very serious business

- It didn't turn out very well.

- What?

- What I wrote.

Let me be the judge of that.

Why'd you choose this class?

I want to be an actor

- My Dad is an actor.

- Really?

Somebody I've heard of'?

No, he lives in New York.

Well, then you have a good start.

To me, it's not writing

It's like opening the tap,

and it comes.

- I see...

- Pictures...

Exactly I see pictures, and you

just have to write them down.

It just flows...

What's the hurry, darling?

- Let me pass...

- You can stay a while.

- Let me go past.

- Why should I do that?

Let me go!

What's going on?

- Scram. Don't mess with my chick.

- You want a smack in the face?

You're pretty cocky, aren't you?

Nail him.

Hit him.

N*gger.

Stop it! John-John!

- Come on!

- Go to hell.

Now, Hakan. Get him.

Fight it out. Harder.

Now we calm down.

Calm down everybody

- I'm gonna kill you a**hole.

- You'll do nothing of the kind.

He hit me first...

- Hi. Are you here?

- Waiting for you.

- Do you often do that?

- What?

- Fight.

- Yea, when I have to.

- But why did you hit him so hard?

- I didn't.

You did. He was bleeding.

Well, he deserved it.

So you think you're tough now?

Layoff. It's a lot worse

if they see you're scared.

Fighting doesn't solve anything.

But I did it for you.

Tell me straight then.

I'm the wrong kind, right?

I don't fit with a chick in

a castle with a swimming pool

No, not when you

behave like you do.

Then f*** the whole thing

Go to hell...

'Sisters! Oh sisters!

Why are you always

on the other side...?

What are you doing here?

I have to talk to you.

Not now.

I love you.

Couldn't you tell me

in a more normal way?

I have to tell you now.

You're crazy.

Go now! They can hear you.

Wait!

What do they say at your house

when you go out at night?

Nobody notices.

My mother works nights

- What is she doing?

- She's cleaning.

- What's the matter?

- What if your father sees us?

Papa doesn't like that I chose theater.

He thinks I should have...

- chosen the humanities.

Natural science or something.

I guess he's right.

I don't fit in the class.

- I don't have any talent

- Sure you do.

Papa doesn't think so

He says I'll never be an actor.

What a bastard.

- He isn't having much fun now.

- Why not?

His company is almost broke.

We might sell the house.

He wants to move to Brussels.

Some business contacts there.

- Have you been with many girls?

- Not many.

How many?

No one that mattered.

I have something to tell you.

I've done something stupid.

More stupid than coming here

in the middle of the night?

We'll talk some other time

- Hi.

- Hi.

You looked worried,

what were you dreaming?

About you...

- A nice dream?

- Yes.

I know. We overslept.

I told Mama that we..

That I had a late class

I think you better leave

the same way you came in

That's okay.

Damn it.

Elisabeth... Elisabeth!?
