When a Man Comes Home Page #3

I have some money.

We could leave this town.

I just want to getaway

from here. With you.

Go away! Don't hang around here.

- Relax!

People actually live here.

I thought she was at work.

I tried to call.

I'm sorry.

I hope you didn't say

anything stupid to Claudia.

And you should...

...walk your nice long body

up those stairs again.

Wait, Maria.

Stand still so we can talk.

It's over. Totally.

It's over.

And we're not mad

at each other, right?

See you.

Yes, maybe. I don't know.

Ready to land.

What's our cargo?

Truffles.

Truffles?

Organic truffles even.

Look at the lovely flowers

that stand proudly in the field

I'm dying in my grief

for the one I cannot have

And if this be the death of me

then sorrow shall be yours

For never in this world of ours

will you leave my mind

To the right.

Right, god dammit!

Get the salad moving, boys!

The truffles are here!

The truffles are here.

Easy now.

Treat the truffles with respect.

They grow on roots

in symbiosis with...

Give him the tray.

Take it up.

I'll just get a glass of water...

- Not now, Sebastian.

Go...!

Aspirin, triple espresso, crme

double. The fatter the better.

And get a newspaper on your way.

Breakfast is ready

in the dining room.

This time I'm sure it will work.

Ready?

They're fired.

I did that already. I fired them all!

Can you tell me why they

don't answer the phone downstairs?

I've been calling for 15 minutes.

Is that for me?

- Yes.

It's your bbbreak...

I can't understand a word.

Come over here, please.

What are you mumbling about?

Your... bbb...

Breakfast? Is that it?

Are you going to shove

it down my throat too?

No, no. You can wait...

What?

I can't understand a word.

Louder.

I'm sorry.

It's all very confusing right now.

What's confusing?

Jesus! Let me take that.

Hey!

Coming.

- Gino, give me a hand.

The young man is unhappy.

He's completely devastated.

Come in.

No, sit down over there.

My goodness.

Have a seat in the sofa.

There we go.

Get him some water.

No, sit down and relax.

What about brunch?

- You know I don't want any food.

All we need is a glass of water.

Here. A glass of water.

Do you want us to chuck it all?

Get the bin.

Let's throw it out.

Give us two minutes to talk.

Eva, breakfast has been cancelled.

How are you doing?

Feeling better?

Here we go. This way.

That's it. Good Lord.

Let it all out.

Once more.

There, there.

- I'm sorry.

It's strange. I'm not sick.

- No, obviously not.

I didn't mean to disturb you.

- But you did.

Now stop blubbering.

Tell me what's wrong.

Is it because of a nice girl?

Yes, it is.

Yes, just get it all out.

So there are two girls.

And I'm herewith...?

- Sebastian.

Sebastian, whom I don't know

who's telling about his two girls

when I should be preparing.

What's the name of the girl at home?

Claudia.

- And the other one?

Maria.

- Marie. That's it.

No. Maria.

Right. Maria.

"Mr. Schmidt," you say to me.

"I can't live without Marie."

I've been there.

Okay.

- You have to set things straight.

It's so stupid and trivial.

And yet it's all that matters.

That's exactly what I sing about.

- Karl Kristian, you should prepare.

Out!

Sebastian, you're in love.

And that's fantastic, right?

But you'll get hurt on the way.

Isn't that what you've done?

We're talking about you, not me.

Is that her? Is it Claudia?

Yes.

That's what I said.

Excellent. Answer it.

Answer it, Sebastian. Come on!

Go back to her.

It'll work out. Answer it.

Have a litttle garden and

some kids to play in the garden.

That's what it's all about, Sebastian.

Why won't you do as I say, kid?

It's like looking at myself.

The same jug-ears.

What are you going to do now, kid?

- I should get back to work, but...

Hey! Eva!

- I'm right here, Karl Kristian.

Eva, tell the kitchen that they'll

have to do without Sebastian today.

We're leaving now.

Where are we going?

- We're going to the churchyard.

We'll visit my mom.

It's 15 years ago. Marvellous.

Look!

This is fantastic.

Turn up the music.

Hello out there!

Hello, my beautiful girls.

They think it's tea. Not a word.

Be quiet, Alf.

I'll climb over.

I don't want to wait.

I have a ladder.

- He says he has a ladder.

I want to do it without a ladder.

Here we go.

Come on.

It's mind over matter.

Mom is buried over here.

...carrying a grudge

I think with shame

about my defeat

Despite the pain and woe

Despite every bitter pill

I hold on to the hope

of my future goal...

Let's give Karl Kristian a moment.

Okay.

Say your name.

- Sssebastian.

One more time.

Without stuttering. Come on.

My name is Sebastian.

Look across the field

and imagine that it's a huge mirror.

Imagine that.

Don't you see

how beautiful you are?

Say your name.

Sssebastian.

Good.

Without stuttering.

Ssseba... Sebastian!

Louder.

Yes. Louder!

Make it long.

Sebastian.

- Come on.

Louder!

Fantastic! Give me a hug.

Okay...

Eva!

Stop fooling around.

I'd like the two young people

to come to the dinner.

Call people, arrange things

and do it right for once.

I always do it right.

- Right... Fool.

Go home

and take it easy for a few hours.

Get some sleep.

Then get out your best clothes

and take an ice-cold shower.

Then you'll go to the dinner.

Good food.

And some nice wine.

And then you go and talk to Maria

like a man who's made up his mind.

Maybe you should...

...talk to your wife, too.

Yes, maybe I should.

A**hole!

You f***ing prick!

Son of a b*tch!

May you rot in hell.

Cheers.

I hate you, you prick!

The boy is asleep. Out!

You can't do it with

the other women anymore.

I don't know.

- I talk to them.

God knows if there's anything left

down there.

No children.

Don't touch me!

Bastard!

Stop it!

You f***ing a**hole!

Quiet, quiet...

Quiet.

Could you please

stop that infernal music?

I can't believe this.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me

would you mind waiting?

A young boy is sleeping up there.

Stop! Boy sleeping here.

Hi.

Did you hurt yourself?

I tripped over the sofa.

Who are you anyway?

Why are you sneaking around?

We were just talking.

Why are you sneaking around here?

He's outside.

I'm waiting for the bells.

They should ring in a minute.

I remember the ringing

from my childhood.

Tinnitus.

- No.

Hello!

What's going on?

He's awake.

No worries. Play, damn it.

Play.

Oh no. It's all...

It's all ruined now.

That's how it goes.

Now I can't hear the bells.

This is absurd.

Your wife fell.

Her lip is bleeding.

Yes, she fell. I told you that

you'd get hurt in the process, kid.

Hello, ma'am.

Is everything alright?

Gino, come here.

- Yes.

Who's the guy in the room?

He's not somebody I know.

We were wondering about the boy

in the room and who he is.

Yes.

- Do you undesstand?

We'll be very busy.

Claudia, would you

see to the invitations?

What?

- There's a new guest list.

With more people?

- Shut up.

That's a total of 31 more.

- Jesus. 31 more guests are coming!
