TO NEW BEGINNINGS

- Vincent, it's time.
- Yeah, all right.

- Who needs a top-up?
- Great Champagne.

- You really need to get a TV.
- Are you drinking Champagne?

- No. It's alcohol-free.
- It's not Champagne. It's Crémant.

- The Champagne is for midnight.
- I can't tell the difference.

- Jens, isn't it almost 6?
- Yes, calm down.

Okay, I think I've got it.

We're seconds away
from the live transmission...

Kris, you're in the way.
Move aside.

- Can everyone see?
- Turn it sideways, Dad.

- Oh, there he is!
- What about Vincent?

- Vincent, Frederik is on.
- King Frederik!

- Oh, he looks good.
- He's a very handsome man.

He gets 12 million kroner a year.

- Does he really?
- One million per month, tax-free.

It's more complicated than that.
Let's just focus on the King's speech.

Did you pay for parking?
Are we in a green zone?

Blue, but it changes in the new year.

- After midnight? What if it's before?
- It doesn't matter!

They don't give out tickets
on New Year's Eve.

- Does everyone have a drink?
- Yes, we have Crémant.

- I miss Queen Margrethe.
- She was fluent in five languages.

- I don't think so, Jens.
- Italian, French, German, English....

- And Greenlandic. Well, Danish.
- So four.

- I can't hear a word.
- Vincent?

Why not just turn it off
and watch the rerun later?

That won't improve the speech.
Caro?

I once had mojitos
with Joachim at Simon's Bar.

I didn't know it was him.
I think he liked being anonymous.

- He tells that story every year.
- It's a true story!

Stop it, Caro!
What the hell are you doing?

Ow, Dad! Not the hair!

- It looks good.
- Vincent, it's on!

Let's give a big thanks
to King Frederik the 9th.

- The 10th.
- Right...

And I assume it's: "Same procedure
as last year, Miss Sophie!"

"Same procedure as every year, James."

Before I give the floor
to our beautiful hostess -

- who has opened
her house to us again this year...

- Once again.
- Yes, once again.

I'd like to propose a toast -

- to Martin, your husband and my
best friend, who's no longer with us.

- To absent friends.
- To absent friends.

Well, as the beautiful hostess
and all that...

- Speech, speech, speech!
- I don't think so.

This is a special year,
because Finn is going to be here.

- Hi, Vincent.
- There you are.

He looks just like his dad.
Come here. Bring it in.

I'll try that again.

Finn is coming, and this is very new
to him as he doesn't know anyone.

We'll take care of him.
I can't wait to meet him!

- Do you like him, Vincent?
- What I wanted to say...

Is he hard to "find"? I mean,
because Finn is a goofy name.

Let's just remember
to embrace new things, okay?

And old!

Jens, if you want Caro to eat,
you need to get started.

- Jens is driving Caro to a party.
- First New Year's without the parents?

- I can get there myself, Dad.
- No, Jens should meet Laura's parents.

- If they're there.
- They will be. Right, young lady?

- Yes, Mom.
- All right!

I'll go to work my magic in the kitchen.
Also, cod is definitely not extinct.

There's one left,
and we're eating it tonight.

I caught it myself.
Oh, is Katrine eating with us tonight?

- Katinka? Yes.
- Just making sure.

- She'll be here anytime.
- Anytime is nothing time.

She said something about
some friends and a cake...

Not the wreath cake?
We brought that.

I have no idea, Jens.

But is it serious,
or just la-dee-da as usual?

- "La-dee-da as usual?"
- Well...

It's actually going well.
Really well in fact.

Is there something we should know?

I'm considering having kids.
Well, we're considering it.

Okay.

How the hell do you do it?
Tell me your secret!

Take it easy. I'm just considering it.

- Why waste time? Isn't she 24?
- No, she's 25. Almost.

At least she's older than me this time.

She's really down to earth.
She's studying law.

She wants to do a PhD, and
she's working on an app with vintage...

Good evening.

- Good evening.
- Oh, I thought Nomi was here.

- Hi! There you are.
- Yeah, I just let myself in.

Can you take this?

- This is very exciting.
- This is Finn.

- Hi, Finn.
- Hi.

- Would you introduce yourselves?
- Good idea.

- I'm Kris.
- You're Nomi's best friend?

You worked at a café together
in Frederiksberg?

- Merry New Year or whatever you say.
- You say "Happy New Year".

You say "Merry Christmas
and a happy New Year."

Let me try to guess,
since Nomi has told me so much about you.

- You must be Jens?
- No, that's me.

Oh, hello, little Jens.
And you're an investment banker?

- You brought a wreath cake.
- I didn't ask him to.

I thought flowers were too basic,
so I made a cornucopia.

Anyway... It's nice to see you
in a different setting, Jens.

- What do you mean?
- You performed at Francisca's party.

- You were there?
- You two have met?

I loved it. You guys rocked.
It can't have been your first time.

Not even close! I was way better
30 years ago. Back then...

I love music, truth be told.

I'm crazy about music,
to be honest.

I'm not surprised to hear that!

- We danced at Francisca's party.
- Are you sure?

Well, I guess I'm forgettable...
You don't remember?

If the main table was here,
I was sitting there.

- And I was there?
- Yes, with Francisca in the middle.

Oh, so that was you.
Or it is you.

Well, that's fun.
And here's the man of the house.

Hello, buddy.
How's it going?

How did you two...?

Finn is the lead physician
at the radiology department.

We started running up and down
the stairs to see each other.

It's the classic doctor-and-nurse trope.

Wow, that's wonderful.

I've heard doctors take off
their wedding bands at staff parties.

My wife died two years ago,
so it hasn't been relevant in my case.

Oh... I'm sorry about that.

Don't worry, Kris.
You couldn't have known.

- Hi.
- Finn seems like a good guy, huh?

- Yes, definitely.
- He's a very interesting man.

- What do you mean?
- He's a doctor, good-looking...

- A good-looking doctor, huh?
- He could have been a total loser.

- Come on, honey...
- Of course. It's great.

- It's good for her to be adventurous.
- Is that what this is?

You know...

All those new feelings and dreams
can be invigorating. Remember?

He was pretty intense
on that dance floor.

- I don't need to hear that.
- Oh, don't be such a dud.

I'm cooking, and I don't even know
if Katrine is coming.

Kris is so anti-social.

He buys five roman candles and expects
us to take care of everything else.

She's allowed to have this.

It was bound to happen at some point.
We need to give him a chance.

Yes, of course we do.

I don't know
what you're trying to start here.

He's not Martin.

There isn't anyone like Martin.

No...

- Should I open some wine?
- Yes, that bottle one there, please.

Should I fix up the plates?

Kris?
How does Vincent feel about everything?

In terms of Finn and all that...?

- He doesn't look very happy.
- Well, he never does.

But Finn seems pretty nice, doesn't he?

- Is everything okay?
- We're almost ready to eat.

I can't believe Finn
doesn't remember me!

- I didn't know he's a bit older...
- He's not that old.

- You both look happy.
- We do?

- You're glowing.
- I don't know about that.

You're always glowing.

- We're out of toilet paper.
- It's in the cupboard.

Yes, I found out the hard way.

You smell really good.

- What's that?
- It's this year's cod.

I caught it myself this morning.
6.5 kilos.

Ah yes, the Gadus morhua
as they're actually called.

- I was about to say.
- Did you clean it?

Just like with people,
25% of a fish consists of organs.

- That much?
- My grandkids call that a "fun fact".

I teach high school biology and we...

Hold that thought.
How long has it been out?

- It's next in line, I just had to...
- Is it going bad?

- I think we need to dress it now.
- Can you do it, Finn?

- I don't want to get in Jens's way.
- He'd welcome the help.

I would love to support Jens
in the kitchen if he needs it.

Let me put on an apron.
That's a big guy.

But if we take out the guts
we'll probably be down to 4.5.

- Sure...
- First up, chopping off the head.

You make the incision
just behind the cranial cavity.

I'm glad I don't have to do it.

And here it is.

This is a fine specimen.

Very nice catch, Jens.
Then we have the eyes.

We need to dig those out...

Here it comes...
The eye of the cod.

No way!

You did not just do that!

Fish eyes are full of vitamins
and minerals.

We'd all live to be 200
if we only ate cod's eyes.

- Finn just ate a raw cod's eye!
- You're such a show-off.

I only have eyes for you.

Let's go sit down
while the soup is still hot.

- Do you need any help?
- It's under control. Thanks, Finn.

No problem. I'll come back to this.

Thanks.

Where do you want me to sit?

- Cheers!
- Happy New Year!

- Water, anyone?
- But why not use it some more?

Why don't we share
our New Year's resolutions?

- Caro, why don't you start?
- No way, Mom.

- Why don't we skip it this year?
- You start.

It just takes so long.

We'll do a lightning round.
45 seconds each.

- That's an unfortunate attitude, Caro.
- What?

We're supposed to talk about the things
that were, are and are yet to come.

- We can do that tomorrow.
- Or Wednesday.

- Come on, 45 seconds.
- Someone say something then.

- I don't think it should be me.
- Why not?

I'm happy to start.

Tell them what you said in the car.

Oh, right. Well, I'd like to be
more grateful in the new year.

I just feel like
I've reached an age where...

... I should start to give back
and not take everything for granted.

30 seconds.

I'm swimming in money,
but what do I actually need?

I mean, I have you, the kids
and Charlotte. And we're all alive.

I live in the best country in the world.
I'm healthy and safe.

That's a privileged place to be.

But in spite of all that, I feel
as if I sometimes come off as...

Bitter?

Not exactly bitter.
More like...

- Like you're spoiled?
- You think I am?

- No, I'm just trying to understand.
- You are spoiled.

I'm not spoiled.
I've worked hard for everything I have.

- Time's up.
- I pay 67% in taxes.

- Jens, time's up.
- All right. Cheers.

- Is it my turn?
- Wait, wait. Go.

I'd like to fix up my flat.

Put up some doors
and finally finish the kitchen.

- The floor is crooked.
- Don't settle for half measures.

How would you do it
if you could start over?

I'd install the same flooring throughout
the flat to reduce this messy look.

Parquet in the hallway and kitchen
would really elevate the space.

I couldn't afford that, Charlotte.
It would cost 250,000 just to install.

- It doesn't make sense for a rental.
- Sorry, I was just feeling inspired.

- Ten seconds left.
- What about you, Jens?

Why don't you give Nomi 250,000
for some new floors?

If you're swimming in money,
that's an obvious place to put it.

Well...

Time.

It's Kris's turn.
You'll be a dad in the new year.

- I don't know that.
- Well, I think you should.

Well, I'm going to be reading
a ton of books.

- I'm going to quit reading.
- As a teacher, aren't you a role model?

I've given up on that.

- It's all about Instagram and TicTac...
- TikTok.

- What did you say, Vincent?
- Never mind.

Perhaps smart people
no longer think smart thoughts.

Perhaps not.

My book club was reading Lorca...
Yes, I soak up a lot of culture.

- Mallorca.
- Federico García Lorca.

Thank you, Finn.

At one point, he says...
Let's see if I remember...

Sólo el misterio nos permite vivir.

Sólo el misterio.

"Only the mystery allows us to live.
Only the mystery."

Exactly!

I was a bi-lingual correspondent,
Spanish and English.

Then we can talk together in private.

- Yes, it's exciting.
- Hello, hello!

I just want to ask:
Do you sell queso here?

Most people don't realize how closely
connected those two cultures are.

Localizing English-language hits
into Spanish is an entire industry.

- That's right.
- Huge industry.

To succeed as a musician, just target
the Latin American audience.

That's another target.

- In the 90s, lots of Danish bands...
- Oh, Finn, that's a bad idea.

That's Martin's.
Finn, please don't touch the guitar.

This one's been translated.
Let's see if you recognize it.

Can you hear it?

Manolo era todo un macho
de pelo en pecho

Pero estaba un poco cansado,
estaba harto de su sexo

Así que se afeitó y se depiló

Y ahora Manolo es toda una mujer

Desde que va
por el lado de la vida más salvaje

Sí, Manoli,
por el lado de la vida más salvaje

Here it comes.

- Come on, Jens.
- It's Walk on the Wild Side.

That's right.

Natalia era un poco pija,
libertina y sin manías

Sus amantes mantenían
su pisito de estudiante

Pero, eso sí, era muy decente

Sus clientes eran ricos,
finos y elegantes

Y, así, sobrevive
por el lado de la vida más salvaje

Here it comes again.

It's not New Year's Eve every day.

Use your voices!

Can you close the door?
It sounds terrible.

- That hat looks good on you.
- It's my party hat. They're fries.

Oh, that's what they are.

That guy, Finn...
Is he nice?

I don't know.
I think he's a bit...

Is he your mom's first boyfriend
since your dad?

- Yeah.
- How do you feel about it?

Well, I think she's happy.

But is it weird?
You don't seem very...

- I don't know.
- It's fine.

Okay.

Wow, Finn!
You play the guitar and sing too!

I think Finn's like a Swiss Army knife.

- That guitar is a bit clunky.
- No, you nailed it!

Wow.

Kris, I brought a bottle
I think you'll really enjoy.

- As a doctor, it must be a nice outlet?
- Yes, absolutely.

Charlotte, where's the wine?
We brought six bottles of white.

I don't know. Caroline brought it up.
You were saying?

To disappear into music,
which is the antithesis of medicine...

When you come home after a long,
tough day, I really need to...

Hats! Jesus Christ,
we need the New Year's hats!

- Goddammit...
- How could we forget?

There it is!

- I had that one last year.
- Lotte gets this one.

- Nomi...
- Thanks. I'm the lamp this year.

- Let's find one for Finn.
- I don't think I need one.

- That's really good.
- I think I'll skip it.

- It's tradition.
- One of them will be hat of the year.

It's the same hats every year?
Why choose a hat of the year then?

It's just about who gets which hat.

I don't mean to question it,
but it doesn't make sense.

- You already know all the hats.
- It's just a tradition. No big deal.

A very old tradition, actually.

- I just don't get it. Sorry.
- It's a tradition, Finn.

- We've lots of them.
- Martin would always come up with some.

- He had so many ideas.
- That's very true.

Cheers.

He was a very generous person.

It's a very tragic story.
Falling off a balcony must be awful...

- Honey, did you start the cod?
- I need to get the fireworks ready.

Yes...

- I'll go help Jens move things along.
- Can you manage?

Honey, don't be a smart-ass.
Jens is in charge.

A smart-ass?

He's wonderful.

Yes. I think Vincent likes him too.

Is that you?

How many people do you have to kill?

- How many do you have to kill?
- I don't know.

- Then why do you shoot them?
- Because it's awesome.

- How much do you play?
- Huh?

- What?
- Weren't you going to a party?

Yes. Good thing it's not with you.

Caro? Did you bring up the wine?

- Yes, I put it in the kitchen.
- Right.

- Did you bring all the bottles?
- Yes.

Are you sure?
I'm missing two bottles.

All right...

- Are you having fun?
- Yes.

Oh, shit.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to you too!

- It looks so pretty.
- Thanks.

- Are you having fun?
- Yes. Are you?

I'm not really sure.

- Do you like him?
- Finn? Oh yes. Yes.

Seriously, I do like him.

- What are you doing with that?
- It's for Katinka. Her favorite colors.

- Aww.
- Oh, stop.

Do you love her?

You're my friend.

Yes, I am.

Hi, honey.
How's it going?

Okay... When do you think
you'll be here then?

Not an exact time,
just approximately-ish?

A few hours?
Okay...

That's fine. Okay, honey.
See you.

- A few hours?
- Yes.

You and I still need to dance.
Come on.

Let me finish my smoke.

I've been in the game for years,
and I have to say:

There's a mismatch between
the market and the central banks.

Watch out, I need to...

Off the top of my head, I'd say
I've knocked 18-20% off the bottom.

Purely through refinancing.
But you need to keep a level head.

- Is everything all right?
- Yes, I'm just making myself available.

- Tell me what to do, Jens.
- There's nothing more to do.

You can let the kids know we're ready.

Of course, chef.
Careful not to dry out the cod.

We don't want to eat fish jerky.

It's okay to stand up to him.
He can take it.

Well, you know me.
When I'm juggling multiple things...

He's actually really sweet
once he feels comfortable.

Yes, definitely.
He seems pretty comfortable.

- Maybe he's just a bit...
- Annoying?

I just miss Martin so much.
I can still sense him everywhere.

I keep hearing his laugh and
all the silly things he used to say.

All right.

Yes...

Just a second!

- Are you keeping secrets?
- No.

- Are you smoking?
- No.

Well, I guess your future
lung cancer isn't my problem.

- Time to eat.
- We'll be right there.

Good.

Man, he's so annoying.
Is he always like that?

Yes. Well, I don't know.
Sometimes.

Finn! All right!

No thanks.

Honey!

I'm totally beat.
Thanks for the dance, Kris.

Now there's space for the new year.

- You were great, Jens.
- He's practiced for three weeks.

- That's a bit too fatuous for me.
- How is it fatuous?

Goddammit!
What the hell are you doing?

I'm sorry, Finn.
Did it hurt?

- What did you expect?
- What on earth were you thinking?

Jens...

You got such a fright!

He blew it straight into my ear.
I mean, what the hell?

I could get tinnitus from that.

You won't. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, but...

I've never seen anyone jump so high.

I mean...

- I'm sorry...
- Jens. It's not funny.

I'm sorry, okay?
He won't get tinnitus.

I'm sorry.
Are you okay, Finn?

- Finn, can you hear me?
- Jens, stop.

I'll get the food. I'm sorry, Finn.
Can you accept my apology?

Sure.

Is he insane?
He blew it this close to my ear.

Doesn't he know it's dangerous?
If the cilia in your ear break -

- it can cause permanent hearing loss.

I don't know if that's what happened,
but it hurts like hell.

- And I just don't find it funny.
- Of course not. We get it.

- Should we get you to the ER?
- It's too bad. We were all having fun.

Your traditions seem very fun,
and I'm trying to be a part of them -

- and then it all gets interrupted
by that noise.

He can't control himself.

You need to try this.

Just a drop.

This is good.

- I'm getting floral notes. And fruit.
- It's ambitious.

I'm getting some acidity...
And yet there's none there.

Is it a young Pinot Gris?

I totally get why you'd say that.
Well done! It's Loire.

All this wine talk...
I apologize on behalf of my gender.

- It's so boring!
- Nothing personal, Jens.

It's just men
talking about wine in general.

- You're not interested in wine?
- No.

- But that shouldn't hold you back.
- It won't.

- It's delicious, honey.
- Good.

With terroir it's all about the soil.
They take the fruit, the juice -

- and put it in casks,
and after a while...

I'm so sorry, Jens. Sorry.
It's just so boring.

Fine! We'll just drink the wine
and talk about it another time.

Cheers!

What are your interests, Finn?

- I've already told you.
- You've told us what you're good at.

Listen, soon I'll say something dull,
and it's fine if you laugh about it.

Men talking about watches is dull.

Or when women talk about
what they dreamed last night.

- Nomi talks about her dreams.
- No, I don't.

- That's not something I recognize.
- I do. You have the wildest dreams.

- What happened with the kids?
- I tried. They couldn't care less.

- Kids!
- Just leave them alone.

How is he doing?

- Not great, to be honest.
- Really? Is school still a problem?

School, mornings, evenings,
friends, food...

He's hopeless at math,
especially fractions.

- Finn helps him with homework.
- When he bothers.

He hasn't been super stable lately,
so we'll see what happens.

- What about the school psychologist?
- Psychology is the voodoo of the west.

- I wasn't asking you.
- She's all right. We just think...

There hasn't been much progress,
so Finn has taken over.

Taken over?

I try to activate his physical side.
We go the gym, work up a sweat.

It helps open up a space where
he can talk about his challenges.

And yes, assess
a potential need for treatment.

Yeah.

I'm just wondering, Finn...

You're a radiologist, right?

Diagnostic imaging consultant, yes.

So you just look at X-rays of kids
who swallowed rubber balls all day?

- Among other things.
- What are Vincent's challenges then?

- Aside from fractions.
- Jens...

- Jens is just joking around.
- Don't worry, I get it.

I haven't landed on any conclusions.

Vincent is, let's face it,
a rather reserved person.

But he could need anything
from an intense course of therapy -

- to medication.

- Isn't that a bit overkill?
- What?

- I don't know about medicating him.
- Well, it sounds like you're an expert.

No, but I've got a good feel of Vincent.
I've known him all his life.

- When did you last talk to him?
- We talk frequently.

Well, not much lately,
while you two have been...

- But we play computer together...
- Oh, okay! Bang, bang, bang!

We go to the park, have a burger,
stuff like that.

"Stuff like that." Right.

This is something I've asked
Finn to do. You realize that, Kris?

- Sure. Of course.
- Good.

I don't think I could manage without
Finn, the way things are right now.

- He's been very supportive.
- Absolutely.

What you two are doing is important.

And it's not that I don't appreciate
your involvement, Finn.

- But Vincent's a special kid.
- He is.

- I mean, he's special to me.
- To all of us.

And I think after Martin's accident,
it's been important for all of us...

What's up?

Do you want to come to the party?

Jens? What are you doing?

Open the door.

Jens?

- Let's calm down.
- He's messing with Vincent's brain!

- It's none of our business.
- He's my best friend's son!

What is she thinking?
He's such an annoying doofus!

I want to break his neck.

Trying to make us sing along
like we're still in pre-school.

I thought he was pretty good.

- And Nomi really likes him.
- No, she doesn't.

- As a woman, I can see that she does.
- She doesn't.

- Yes, she does.
- That's not what she told me.

What did she tell you?

She just told me
she thinks he's super annoying.

Why is he even here then?

She's not doing it to be mean,
she's just struggling.

Let's go back out there and make sure
everyone has a good time, okay?

- That's the best thing we can do.
- How?

Let go of your anger. Come on.
Out with the anger. Out with the anger.

It's out!

All right, thanks.

Talk about Martin.
That always makes you happy.

You're so good.

- We were just praising the cod.
- Oh, good.

- I thought there were no cod left.
- I did have to get up very early.

What a shame.
It's almost our national fish.

No, I would say that's the herring.

Or the silverfish. But the media
is really milking that narrative.

Vejle Fjord's funeral wasn't a joke.

Oh, buddy, it's so much
more complicated than that.

It's a case of misinformation starting
at the Ministry of the Environment.

Ordinary people are sitting at home,
wondering what to believe.

How does it all fit together?
There are conflicts of interest.

What about the gray seal?
It's all over the Baltic Sea.

They're a threat to the cod,
but no one talks about it.

Ask a fisherman on Bornholm
about the gray seal.

No wait, you can't, there aren't
any fishermen on Bornholm anymore.

CITIZEN SERVICE CENTER

Meet you later?

Where?

In Madrid!

Keep drinking.

You know what I mean.
Come away with me.

Maybe.

And tonight?

Text me an address.

We're enjoying Jens's cod,
which wasn't hard to catch.

I don't know how much time
you spent, but they're there...

We're having a great time.
Yeah, it's super fun.

- Just a second. Katinka says hi!
- See you soon!

See you later, honey. Bye!

- She looks nice.
- Is she at a party?

So take the cod quotas
with a grain of salt.

- Honey? No more fish talk.
- Okay. No more fish.

All right,
but let's light up a confetti bomb.

- No, those are for later.
- Hell no, let's light one up.

No, Finn! That's for later.

Sorry. Is it an expensive one?

You couldn't have known, but we always
light the big ones after dessert.

- But here, have a small one.
- I don't want to offend anyone.

- You're not.
- Sorry, Finn.

I know we're not the easiest group
to be around. At least I'm not.

It's just that this isn't
an easy night for us.

We just have so many years of...

We don't need the long story, Jens.

Right, I just wanted to...

Finn, did you know Martin and I
used to live in this flat together?

Here? No, I didn't know that.

We did. This was where
it happened in those days.

Martin would always
invite random people over.

You couldn't help but love him
and his crazy ideas.

He and I had this awesome hip-hop band.

- We were about to make it big.
- Easy now, Jens.

We were! We warmed up
for the Østkyst Hustlers!

- Honey, honey...
- All right, I'll do it later.

- Then what happened?
- Well, then Nomi moved in.

After an epic New Year's where Nomi
and Martin did it in the broom cupboard.

- The door is still broken!
- We don't need to hear that story.

No... Then Nomi moved in,
and I moved out when I met Charlotte.

And then the party ended.

No way. We did everything
together during that time.

We travelled together, got pregnant,
held dinner clubs, everything.

- Who got pregnant?
- Oh, right.

Vincent was born right out there
in the bathtub.

- Yeah...
- Right out there in the bathtub.

Yeah.

The morning after, Charlotte and I
brought you croissants. Remember?

You were so beautiful.
You really were.

And little Vincent... When his
tiny hand grabbed my finger...

And Martin was standing there...

I've never seen him
so calm and content.

I miss him so damn much.

- I miss him every day.
- Every day.

I'm sorry...

Does this mean
that's the balcony Martin fell from?

I don't know
why I'm just realizing that.

We try not to make a big deal of it.
It's also just a balcony.

Right. But it's also
the scene of the disaster.

- Have you thought of moving?
- Nomi's dealing with a lot.

But for Vincent's sake.

Yes, but I didn't have
the energy or the courage.

New friends, a new school... I don't
want to take anything else from him.

Isn't this a bit much?
Are you okay with this?

- Jens brought it up.
- No, I didn't.

You wanted to talk about Martin,
so go ahead and do that.

- Did he stand on a chair?
- I didn't see the forensic act coming.

- Was he drunk?
- Yes, he probably was.

It was New Year's Eve.

Caro should get ready...

It takes effort to go over that railing.

Finn, it's not complicated.

We had a party going
and for some reason -

- Martin went out onto the balcony
and got on a chair.

No one was there to get him down
and so...

- And so?
- Yes.

He lost his balance.
Is that not clear enough?

- Sure. What time did it happen?
- Hard to say. Most of us had left.

Okay. Jens just said
you had a party going, so...

We need to send Caro off,
can we shelve this?

Sure, of course. I'm just having
a hard time imagining it.

- Imagining what?
- All of it.

Okay.

- Jens? This is a bit too much.
- What is?

You keep talking about Martin.
It's inappropriate.

- Oh, so I'm ruining the mood?
- It's hard for Nomi to listen to it.

Can't you tell?

- She seems exhausted.
- Can someone help?

- Yeah.
- Okay?

- What is it?
- Dinner for One. Still hilarious.

The key to play drunk
is to not play drunk.

Michael Caine said that,
and he's so right.

- Isn't he acting totally hammered?
- No. Well, he is, but...

It's not easy to comprehend.

Not everyone realizes
this is a German production.

Here comes the tiger...

- This is where he jumps?
- No, that's next time.

- The kids aren't here.
- You weren't planning on driving?

No, taking a cab.
Neither of them are here.

- Happy New Year!
- Happy New Year!

- What have they been doing?
- They've certainly been having fun.

But Caro doesn't drink.
She really doesn't.

Well...

- She's not responding.
- I'm going to text her.

Where are you?

At Laura's.

That's not true. I'd REALLY
like to know where you are!

Not at the CITIZEN SERVICE CENTER,
that's for sure.

- Damn it!
- Hey!

That's dangerous!

You're way over the line!
I'll come down there and kick your ass!

Come on down then!

- He always has to kick someone's ass.
- Come inside.

Fucking brats! Did you hear that?
Those fireworks are illegal!

What did she say?
Where is she?

- I don't know. Stop yelling.
- I'm not!

- Hey, just let them have fun.
- You clearly don't have kids.

What could happen?
They're looking after each other.

We don't know that! Caro's 16,
and she's never had alcohol before!

- She was drinking bubbles.
- Alcohol-free! She's never had alcohol!

- Well, now she has.
- So you're totally fine with this?

As long as they're having fun...

I thought Vincent wasn't capable
of having fun!

- Excuse me?
- He's taken Caro on a midnight bender!

- Vincent isn't the bad apple here.
- Stay out of this, Finn.

- What do you mean "the bad apple"?
- Caro was smoking and drinking wine.

She didn't give a shit.
They don't get to badmouth Vincent.

- No, but let's...
- I'd keep my eye on Caro if I were you.

Finn, you don't know my daughter,
and you need to stop talking now.

Let him raise your son if you want,
but he's an imbecile!

And he doesn't get to have an opinion
on my daughter! Leave me alone!

Wow...

What's going on?

- Talk to her yourself.
- You haven't done anything wrong.

- That was completely out of proportion.
- Finn, come here...

Don't accept that shit.

Honey, you need to leave this to me.
Is that okay?

- Should I leave?
- No, not at all.

But you need to turn it down 10%.
They'll calm down in a minute.

- Maybe I shouldn't be here.
- Of course you should.

I'm not sure I want to.
I don't feel very welcome.

It's all so juvenile.
I find it very baffling.

- People do have feelings.
- Sure, let's call it that.

- I'm superfluous in this constellation.
- You're not. Stop acting like a child.

- Excuse me?
- It's not about you right now.

You're not serious right now.
Finn?

Maybe we can have leftovers
at my place tomorrow.

Happy New Year.

- Is this a Spaniard?
- Yes.

- Wouldn't you like a glass?
- Not right now.

Where's Finn?

What time is it?

It's almost 11.

I think we should say cheers
and call it a night.

No, we can't ring in the new year at 11.

It's all right by me.

We ring it in at midnight. We can leave
afterwards if that's what you want.

Or is this what Finn wants?
Does Finn want us to leave?

Finn has left.
Let's just do it now.

- We can all agree he's no Martin.
- Please...

Nomi, this is a very
emotional night for me.

Please respect that. This night
has Martin written all over it...

- Really? How so?
- Kris, back me up.

We know what you're dealing with...

Do you?

Why do you come here every year
and praise Martin like the Dalai Lama?

- Huh?
- Because we miss him.

- We all miss him.
- I can't deal with this anymore.

Let's name the hat of the year...

That was the start of a sound studio.
A really shitty project.

- We know.
- A fucking shitty project.

That door was put up for sale
on Craigslist 12 years ago.

It's been waiting for the right buyer
for 12 fucking years.

We know what he was like!

You need to shut up, Jens.
I can't listen to this anymore!

- To me, Martin is all over this place!
- Shut up!

Nomi...

He was fucking nuts, Jens.
He was sick.

His mind was in shambles.

He was always building something.
He opened a bakery.

He got in trouble with someone from a
biker gang, who almost beat him to death.

And then all the fucking women
he had to make up excuses about...

Then he stopped sleeping, Jens.

He was lying in his own shit
with the curtains closed for months.

And Vincent was outside,
knocking on the door.

And then he jumped.

And no one could help him.
No one had the courage.

And then he jumped.
And where were you, Jens?

Because I was here.

I was here. And Vincent was here.
Right in there.

And then he fucking jumped!

Jens, I wake up every night...

... to the sound of that fucking
balcony door rattling.

Every night, I see little Vincent
looking down at his dad.

He was so small for his age.

It wasn't his dad lying down there.

It was a stranger.

It wasn't his dad
who left him there on that balcony.

Finn goes to work at 8 a.m.
He gets home at 6 p.m.

He makes money, keeps appointments
and sorts his garbage.

He reads the newspaper
and responds to questions.

And if he can shut up
for five minutes -

- while I tell Vincent
the truth about his dad -

- then that's good enough for me.

- And we don't get to have a say?
- You've said enough.

We were just looking out for Vincent.
That's all we ever did.

No, Jens.
We've been looking out for you.

Me?

Me?

Fuck.
That's Katinka.

Hi, honey!
Happy New Year!

- This is Lennart.
- I've been so stoked to meet you!

Happy New Year!
Hello, hello!

Happy New Year.
This place is gorgeous.

- I'm so wasted!
- Right, I was wondering if...

Where's Nomi? Where's dear Nomi?
Hi!

Nomi?

Hello! Happy New Year!

- Nomi?
- Did you have a fun night?

Hi, Nomi!
Happy New Year!

You look so good!

All right!

Østkyst Hustlers!

Hey, that's Østkyst Hustlers!
It's a classic!

... 'cause he's such a handsome guy

He doesn't get enough
That's why he's like that

Not enough hanky-panky
Way too much wanky

He used to get so much
But now he doesn't get enough...

Nomi, I'm hungry.
Don't you have any food or snacks?

Have you seen this?
It's nicer than yours, babe.

You don't mind if we eat
the wreath cake, do you?

- What's wrong with her?
- Come here for a second.

Come on.

- Why's she being weird?
- It's been an emotional night.

- Come with us then!
- I think I'll stay for a while, okay?

Are you throwing me out?

Can we talk about this tomorrow?

Are you in love with her?

Come here.

Stop it!

You're the world's oldest man.

I told you a million times,
he's a fucking old man.

Caro, I hope you're okay, honey.
Call me.

What the hell are we doing here?

I have to ask you something.

Okay?

The last time we were here...
For your dad's funeral...

- And?
- I've been thinking...

When they took the casket away,
you were looking at it -

- and then you said something to it.

Do you remember what it was?

"I hate you."

Yes. Why did you say that?

Because he jumped.

Did you see him jump?

No, I just saw him lying there.

Then how do you know he jumped?

Because he was my dad.

What's wrong?

Talk to me, Lotte.

I'm not a very nice person.

It's all just such a big mess.

Fuck.

Oh, no, come on!

I saw you!

Fuck.

Hi.

My name is Kristoffer.
I accidentally shot fireworks at you.

I apologize for that.
I'm really sorry.

Come on in.
It's just nice to have guests.

Right.

- I think you owe me a new one next year.
- Of course. I'm so sorry.

But maybe buy one in plastic.

- Would you like an amaretto?
- Yes, please.

I don't know. It's just easy with him.

He's just happy.
It makes him happy to see me.

He wants me to come to Madrid.

Jens and I haven't had sex
in four years.

Ouch.

I can't leave him right now. He thinks
he has anxiety and stress and gout...

I almost can't breathe.
There's always something with him.

But I also love him. Or...

Or I used to. I'm sorry.

That just means more than you'd think.

It does.

But you can't abstain
for four years, so go to Madrid -

- and stay there
until you start to miss him.

- And if I don't start to miss him?
- Exactly.

That's my point.

And what about Finn?
Can you make it work?

Let's have some Champagne.

That's Jens!

What the hell is he doing?

- I've watched you party so many times.
- You should have come over.

No, that's your party.
I have my own right here.

She's nice, the woman who lives there.

- My mom doesn't know that I know.
- What?

That he jumped?

It's crazy how little they know.

My mom's seeing another man.

Okay. What does your dad say?

- He doesn't know.
- Shit.

Do you miss him?

I don't know.
Time just passes.

- But he sort of fades.
- How so?

I don't know.
I wish life didn't move so fast.

So I could have a chance to get back
on board. You know what I mean?

Come with me.

Come!

Come.

Shit...

Thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine -

- eight, seven, six -

- five, four, three, two, one...

What now?

I don't know.

It's not moving!

Did it freeze?

Okay.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

These old knees...

Let me see.

- What?
- The kids?

What are they doing there?

Oh...

- Hi.
- Hi.

It's Dad!

Dad?

Hi, Mom.

Where's Finn?

- What have you been up to?
- I don't know...

No? But I do.

- Hello, Vincent.
- Hey, hey.

You've been out and about.

- Did you bring her home?
- Yeah, there she is.

Jens! What are you wearing?

Look who I found?

- You've won hat of the year.
- Hell yeah! Oh, hi.

Hey.
You two look happy and content.

- We are
- We're also cold.

What about us?

Are we okay?

Let's do another year, huh?

- Yes!
- Am I the only one who's hungry?

- Let's find something to eat.
- We've got so much wreath cake.

Beer and wreath cake!

Happy New Year, sweetie.

Happy New Year, Mom.
