When a Man Comes Home Page #2

And I was supposed to live somewhere

else. But here we are again.

Here we are. Crazy.

You didn't stutter. You can do it.

Sometimes I forget.

You know that.

Yes.

I suppose I do.

Wall, I'd better get on with it.

Talk to you later.

Are you okay?

- Yes. Sorry. I can't see a thing.

I have a clean cloth.

- That's okay. Sorry. It doesn't matter.

Where are you?

Where are you?

Sorry.

County of whores!

I've been shopping. I bought

some lamb, and yoghurt for tzatziki.

Have you been drinking?

- No.

Yes.

One glass doesn't count.

- It does for you.

I want some, too. So you're

sitting around drinking, are you?

Let's get nice and cozy.

I love the way you feel right here.

Here's to the shithouse!

Just like that.

Ouch.

Sorry.

Like, what's going on down there?

- I don't know.

Wait. Let me just...

Look at me.

Nothing's happening.

It's no use.

- I don't know what's happening.

I'm a bastard.

Hi.

- Hi.

Isn't it kind of early, Sebastian?

I couldn't sleep.

And you just had to meet me

in a field at 6 a.m.

Yes.

- Okay.

Did anyone in town see you?

No.

- Your girlfriend is Claudia, right?

Yes.

This isn't right.

Nnno, it isn't.

Especially not for you.

The world's most faithful boy.

Come.

Come.

The bells...

Lis.

Alright?

- Yes. You look amazing.

Where are we going to sleep?

- I have to get back to work.

Let's have a chat first.

- What a nice place.

There's an aura of calm

and openness.

One feels welcome.

Sebastian, we have to talk.

- Out. Goodbye.

This is a private conversation

between mother and son.

Men are cursed at your age.

They leave the right ones

and go crazy over the wrong ones...

Your father's a good example.

He left me without a word

for a young girl

while I was expecting you.

And now here he is.

What do mean by

"here he is"?

It's the singer.

- Karl Kristian.

Didn't you say

he was hit by a train?

Did I say that?

He's a prick and a liar,

and he doesn't know you exist.

He comes here all high and mighty.

But he was never hit by a train.

I can't take all this in.

You'll inherit a bundle.

- Out.

I'll have nothing to do with him.

- That's a good boy.

Don't tell anyone.

- No one will hear anything from us.

This is between the two of us.

Or rather three.

- She loved your father.

But she doesn't anymore.

Perhaps I loved him. Perhaps.

And what good did that do?

- Nothing. He was cursed, too.

It happens to every man.

Otto went nuts over Dorte.

No, because he painted

surrealistic pictures.

They're horny bastards. All of them!

Jesus! Horny bastards?

Certainly not Sebastian.

- No, he's an exception. You're lucky.

Hello, dear.

- Hi, everyone.

I shopped for dinner. Hi.

But I have to get back soon.

- You look lovely.

Peter's been asking for you.

You'd better go down there.

Is everything okay?

- Yes.

Yes, everything's just fine.

Get a move on.

I've just got a father.

- What?

Nothing.

- Come.

Wa swear!

- Okay, let's get going.

Whatdid he say?

- Lunch is in five minutes...

Hey, hey! You and you.

Come with me.

The fruit plate isn't served.

Idiots! And take his bags too.

I cccan't.

- Excuse me?

I'll fire you on the spot.

We have to plate up the...

Shut up, Sebastian.

- Sebastian and Kim!

I can't do this alone.

Go ahead. It's fine.

Do you think a pile of dead meat

knows you're talking to it?

Is that Buddhism

or nirvana or what?

Does it mean that you come back

as the animals you've killed?

Then I'll come back many times.

Do you know

how many flies I've killed?

This is far out.

- I wonder what's in the orange one.

I don't know.

This is your suite. This is where

we held your honeymoon years ago.

Wa haven't changed a thing.

Not a thing.

You can seethe ocean.

- Yes, you can see the ocean.

I'm sorry. Can you see the ocean?

Am I in the way?

I'd just like to see my own suite.

I beg your pardon?

- My own suite.

Well, let's see to that, ma'am.

I'm sure we booked one.

Once again you didn't do

what you were supposed to do?

We can easily arrange

for another suite. After lunch.

Lunch?

- Lunch under the white canopies.

For all the town's notabilities.

- Goodbye, everyone.

The joint meeting is over.

There's the door.

I don't want any lunch.

I'm not hungry.

This is not good.

It is not optimal.

The calf was slaughtered,

sacrificed and rejected.

He's an artist.

Most of them are crazy. Claudia?

In the interviews, he's talked

a lot about going home

and in his sleep he says "the bells".

I don't know why.

His secretary says he's weary of life.

And his wife is here

for the sake of appearances.

He's stopped drinking.

- As well as eating.

He's lost 46 Ibs.

We don't want to pressure you.

- You have to make him eat.

No, no. I'm getting chest pains.

I can't take this.

Don't say that.

It's too much pressure for him.

Responsibility. Responsibility.

We'll get him to eat.

It's all good.

Two flower bouquets in the kitchen.

Roses. They should be on the table.

Why did you buy flowers for me?

- Because he's a good boy.

He's never bought any before.

- No.

So why?

Is something wrong, dear?

- Tell us what you're feeling.

Why did you buy them? Tell us.

Sebastian, please explain

what this is about.

I screwed another gggirl.

That's why I bought flowers.

- That's true.

That's often why men buy flowers.

- Shut up, Anna.

What are you saying?

- I've been with someone else.

Screw isn't the right choice of word.

- Out, Anna. Goodbye.

Mom, you leave as well.

- I've been with a man who...

We know.

Leave.

- No, sit down.

I don't know what to do

in a situation like this.

Sebastian.

Sebastian.

I like you.

And I like that

you give it to me straight.

That's what a good boy does.

- Stop calling me a good boy.

How about taking a sleeping bag?

Isn't that what people do?

And find somewhere else to sleep.

Yes. Then he can think it over.

What's up?

You haven't answered your phone.

I've been sent to get you.

We're very busy.

Who sssent you?

That lame Swedish chef.

Now he's talking to the china.

Tomorrow they're flying in

truffles from Gotland.

So many things have happened.

There's something I have to do first.

See you tomorrow.

Now what?

Is it too cold? Is that it?

Are you madly in love with her?

Yes.

No!

Do your thing and break it off...

- It won't work, Claudia.

What are you doing?

I'm leaving.

I'm not coming back.

You're not going anywhere,

you idiot!

Oh no.

Here. The keys.

I'm leaving.

Sebastian!

Sebastian!

Give me the keys.

I don't want you to have the keys.

Sorry. I'll leave again.

Was that her? Tell her to come in.

Come on in!

Come on in. Hey!

Hi.

This is Claudia. This is Maria.

Hi.

- I know who you are.

Did you know he proposed to me?

Did you know that?

No.

If the two of you want to talk

Let's go inside.

No thanks. Just leave.

What did you tell her?

- Like it is.

Like it is?

- Yes.

I can't live in this town anymore.

Everyone's mad at me.

Am I bleeding?
