MY SISTER, MY LOVE

Don't you know how to fish, Jacob?

Charlotte, sister!

Jacob, brother!

My dear brother...

- Finally you're back home. - Sister, what are you laughing at?

- What? - Your scent.

Your scent is wonderful!

- It's the best in the world. - The French girls didn't like it.

You were too dirty for them.

God help me, I bathed and perfumed.

What imbeciles!

- Parisian, right? - Bought in Amsterdam.

Amsterdam? What were you doing there?

- Guess. - Was she good-looking?

Of course, gorgeous, married and with three kids.

- Have you finished school? - Yes, sister.

I promise, I've studied everything.

And above all, dramatic expression.

You were going to be a diplomat!

The path of the theater doesn't stop one from reaching the heart of the King.

To the contrary, it's more like a short cut.

Here I am, sister, at home again.

And I feel reborn!

- Five long years! - Four and a half!

Well...

So you're still alive...

The infamous Mrs. Koller'.

The saintly woman still lives.

With her fatherless son...

Conceived by the Holy Spirit, born unto Mrs. Koller'.

The only miracle of Surmland.

And if she lied to the tribunal?

And this son really did have a father?

There's no proof.

Even so they cut his ears.

And they would have cut his throat if it hadn't been for his saintly mother!

What's the name of that flower that papa liked to draw?

Wasn't it a pansy?

- I don't remember. - Yes, it was a pansy.

It's marvelous to see you!

Dear sister...

Let's go.

- My God, how many does she have now? - Six.

Two more since you left.

The parish now belongs to her, it cost her four thousand crowns.

- How does she do it? - She bribed Schurderheim, of course!

The secretary of the State kept half.

What surprises me is how she manages to get it!

I see that nothing has changed in Mrs. Koller's stable.

She used to have more livestock.

What are you singing?

A servant in Paris sang it.

- What's it called? - I don't know.

What's it about?

I don't remember.

It's not about love, maybe?

You end up with an idiot son...

Can you imagine having to live with that punishment your whole life?

You think it's a punishment?

Really, Jacob?

Don't you think someone in the heavens said:

"Since Koller' has fornicated with his daughter".

"I should punish her, so she learns".

"I know! I'll give her an idiot son!"

You believe that, Jacob?

You think life is like that?

Calm her... Yes, very good, that's it...

Oh to be as daring as you!

So free!

I'm not free, Jacob.

I'm indifferent.

I shall marry soon.

You are my brother and guardian,

will you give me your consent?

- With whom? - The Baron Alsmeden.

With that conceited ass?

He has more charm than you would believe.

Charm? What kind of charm?

Well, I'd say that he's changed a lot within.

He's changed much.

He's tried to know himself.

And polish his defects...

I think that's worth a lot, Jacob.

I think he's an intelligent man.

If so, I wouldn't trust him.

Smart people are always the most dangerous!

And you still say you haven't changed?

That you're the same woman you were when I left?

Go ahead, marry him!

Marry him if that's what you want.

Have children and be happy.

Come out of the barn and quit arguing!

This cow is going to give birth soon.

Yes, we're going Mrs. Koller'.

It's decided, Jacob.

Thank you.

Pruning gloves I promise you...

I promise to give you pruning gloves...

It's a modest gift

that I give you.

But remember, little Lisa,

that I am a poor man.

This song I sing you is an old one...

You there!

Where did you catch that?

Did you catch it?

I'll buy it, how much do you want?

What's wrong with you?

Don't you understand me, Swede?

If you don't sell it to me I'll have to take it from you!

Get out of here!

Welcome, Carl Ulrik.

- You seem content. - Of course, I'm with you.

Is that all?

Yesterday your majesty said that you needed me.

I shouldn't have surprised you.

And I wasn't surprised.

Your confidence is admirable, Carl Ulrik.

I want you to meet my brother

Baron Jacob Gyllenhjelm, Baron Carl Ulrik Alsmeden.

If you were a woman, I'd know which words to use

To show the respect that I have for you

I would embrace you to welcome you

Charlotte has told me much about you.

You know that I'd like to ask something of you.

As her "Guardian,"

the law gives you that prerogative

concerning her future.

And so, with much respect and very humbly

I ask that you have the goodness

to grant me the hand of your wonderful sister Charlotte.

I promise to do everything possible

to provide her with a comfortable life,

full of love and tenderness, like she deserves.

Charlotte has the last word.

I can only bend to her will.

Not at all.

- You can refuse, if you wish it so. - Why would I do that?

I don't know, and I hope you will not do it.

No, I don't have any reason to break up this happy union.

On the contrary.

For the glory of my late father and in the name of my family,

I'm happy to welcome you.

Your social position and your warm heart

tell me everything...

You don't know me.

But I will get to know you.

As you will me.

Our guests are arriving.

Bless you!

- Welcome! - Thank you.

I hope we're not too late!

We had to put our sweet girls to bed,

and we had another task.

The bees in two of our hives were get ready to mate

And you know, Baron, the honey is

rich and nutritious, and one must have plenty for the winter.

Perhaps you can make use of this, pastor.

Say something about the hives in the sermon on Sunday.

The parishioners will like it.

I welcome you all!

Our greatest hopes for your future union!

Uncle.

Are you decent?

Yes.

Uncle.

I heard Jacob's voice below.

I almost fainted with emotion!

His voice has changed, it sounds much more masculine.

Are you looking for somebody, ma'am?

Yes, my husband, I believe he went to the restroom

It's over there.

Thank you very much.

I present you Baron Jacob Gyllenheim.

Miss Ebba Livin.

Welcome back to Sweden.

- Doesn't he remember me? - No.

What's going on?

I think you've made a mistake, baron.

- I think - What?

That our country has countless spirituality...

Ulrika?

- Where were you? - Walking in the park.

It's a delicate age.

A delicate girl.

She needs security...

But she should show more gratitude to our family for taking care of her

She is my pertinence.

Still, a beautiful pertinence.

It must have been something serious to make you so worried.

Yes, it was..

The punishment will come later.

What punishment?

I don't know.

But it will come

it will be the death of me.

It will destroy me.

It is the best thing

for a stinking corruption like mine.

Is there no redemption?

Nor forgiveness?

Forgiveness?

What is that?

Ask the priest.

A God who punishes without mercy

and who doesn't contemplate clemency... Imagine!

Don't worry, it's my life.

- Only mine. - And mine for a long time.

If punishment

exists...

And happiness exists...

They exist here and now.

In our heat and in our cool.

- And after death? - Nothing.

No consoling, no punishment, nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

It's admirable!

Finally someone who knows what she believes.

Everything else is repugnant hypocrisy

One day you'll need to confess your crime to me.

- If not, I cannot understand it. - It's impossible.

Not even to you.

You can't even tell me who the victim was?

The victim?

The victim was Jesus Christ.

In the form of a woman, naturally.

But baron, there is always mercy, remember that.

Perhaps.

But nobody, not any man, nor any beast

enters Paradise with the weight of his sins

It's not so easy, not even for you, father.

I'm sure.

Be careful of him Miss Charlotte.

Heresy only leads one

away from the truth.

He's not even Christian!

But he has been, pastor, he has been.

As were we all.

I was really crazy about you

Some time ago.

But you never noticed!

It was before you left on your long journey.

You've finally come back, Jacob.

Listen.

Tell me.

- We have to go down. - No.

- They've been asking where we are. - No.

My uncle always keeps an eye on me.

Everyone does.

Leave her alone!

And if I don't?

If not, I'll tell them everything you did before you left.

- Servants, married women, everything. - Tell them.

I don't think it will matter.

She's not like the others.

- She wants to get married. - Oh really?

If you can get married, so can I.

Surely you haven't had relations with him yet?

- He has never touched me. - But he soon will!

In time he will have you completely.

He'll get rid of me little by little.

You've been contemplating marriage?

- With whom? - With Ebba?

- Why not with Ebba? - You hardly know her.

What do you know?

Don't touch her, don't touch her!

I will have her!

- When and how I want! - You kissed her!

I ask you please don't kiss her!

Jacob.

I was so sad when you left.

I didn't know that without you I would be dead.

When you wrote saying that you were coming back

I was so scared.

So much fear that I made a decision

If I got married I could leave it all in the past

That's why I told Carl Ulrik to make the preparations

I thought that was the only way to forget you.

I wanted you to not give your consent.

There's only one person that makes me feel secure.

You.

Everything else is fake.

We have to go down.

Don't leave me again, Jacob.

Don't ever leave me again.

Don't worry.

Everyone is asleep.

They don't know where we are.

- But they'll soon awaken. - No.

Calm yourself.

They won't wake up...

You know why?

Because they don't exist.

They don't exist.

No, they'll wake up.

They'll find us.

It would be scandalous.

Jacob.

What will become of us? Where will we go?

Easy now, my dear sister.

If they judge us, I'll deny it forever.

And even so...

the risk doesn't scare me.

You make me very happy.

Don't forget it.

Very happy...

It makes me happy that you've only slept with me.

Only with me...

Jacob.

Sweet Jacob.

I would be happy to only ever sleep with you... I'm yours!

Take it easy, tiger...

Come one let me be!

Your mine, you're my sweet prisoner!

But he...

he's got everything in his favor.

- He'll end up marrying you.. - No, he won't get that far.

Promise me you'll break the engagement.

Promise!

- What do I get in return? - Me.

- Would you dare? - Dare what?

To live with me?

Jacob.

- Jacob, don't worry. - Sshh!

I thought I heard something.

Life is repugnant.

It all rules, and there is no happiness.

No... enough...

Let me go and come here please! Let me go!

You're crazy! Let me go!

At his age!

And always brandishing his crucifix!

What a pig!

My sweet brother,

are you happy to know you're not the only sinner?

Wait!

There's someone below!

Charlotte.

What's going on?

I couldn't sleep.

I went for a walk and found Jacob.

I wanted to see the new works.

I like him.

It makes me sad that he doesn't like me.

My, how he drives!

Maybe if I shoot with this

he'll drive a little better.

- What are you going to do? - Nothing!

I just want to try it

They say the king wants to build a bridge here

Doesn't that seem dangerous? If the Russians decide to invade,

they'll get to Mollaren.

Did the baron find a nice house in Stockholm?

I suppose he did.

Charlotte, promise me something.

- When you get married, may I come? - And if there is no wedding?

Quit joking.

It's already decided!

Charlotte, please

You can't be serious!

Why not?

You want me to tell the driver to stop?

No.

- You look dizzy. - Journeys make me ill.

- We can stop so you can rest. - Leave it, please.

What's wrong now?

We're surrounded!

How stinky!

What are you waiting for?! Move it! Let's go!

Come on, quickly!

Forget the sheep and move it!

Don't be crazy, quit playing with that!

- They're gone! They're gone! - Sit down!

- What's the matter, Charlotte? - Nothing.

Give the pistol to the driver and be quiet.

What are they doing?

They're going to flog her in the plaza.

What has she done?

Wait for me.

- Can't I go? - No, I'll be right back.

- But I'd love to see it. Please? - Another day.

No, not that one.

- The wedding is soon. - Don't remind me.

- Bring me the other. - Yes, ma'am.

I spoke this morning with Bergfelt the furrier.

He, like everyone else, talked to me about the wedding

- Even the chef is talking about it. - Which chef?

The one from the place I eat.

Apparently his cousin is in charge of the food at your wedding

Too bad there won't be a wedding.

It could have been for a large party.

Four days ago I wrote a letter to Carl Ulrik

telling him there won't be a wedding.

You mistook the measurements!

- Yes, but... - I'm sure!

As you wish.

Jacob.

Jacob.

Entertain me a bit.

Tell me about your trips.

Tell me about Germany and Italy

What are the people like?

How slow you are!

These girls are a disaster!

I want to tell you something

Please turn your head for a moment.

"La porte, si vous plait!".

The door.

Let's leave.

Forever!

That's my message!

MY Urgent message!

We can change names!

Nobody will know we're siblings!

And we can get married.

- And how would we do that? - We'll go where we can.

- Not even to the end of the Earth. - Yes, we can go far from here.

We'll break away from our pasts, from everything!

We can start a new life!

We can get married and have children!

- You don't like the idea? - Of course.

Don't just say that to please me.

Don't you want to live with me?

Have children with me?

Sister, you're incredible.

What you say is so amazing.

Really, you want to have children with me?

Of course not.

It was a joke.

It would be crazy.

Why can't we live without God, without damnation?

How difficult it is to live without a man to help.

You have one.

I should thank Carl Ulrik for his good deeds.

His Majesty has granted me an audience.

I should kill you for being such a coward!

Get out!

Knock before you enter!

Shall I look for you tomorrow, Charlotte?

No.

I send someone for you.

No.

When I need you most, you don't even want to know me

I've missed you every night.

It's horrible being alone, Charlotte.

I can't stand it.

I can't.

I need strength for other things.

Please, Charlotte.

No, Jacob.

I'm no longer free.

Time has me trapped.

The days, the weeks, the months...

Come in!

You don't understand, but it's my life.

Where are you going afterward?

To see Count Schwartz with Ebba.

The hat.

And then?

Where are you going?

I promised Carl Ulrik that I'd go see the house he bought.

This should have been here yesterday!

Leave it there.

- And the desk? - It will soon arrive, Baron.

- It's arriving! - And when is that do you think?

Baron, sir...

You came.

I have been reading it.

Is this serious what you wrote?

Look at all the light.

I've had to do some structural modifications, you'll see.

Everything else is pretty much as we planned.

Your ideas weren't just good ones,

but very precise.

You've got a talent for decorating.

Where are you going now?

I'm going to Rimmingsnos.

I'll stay the night in the home of Schwartz.

Aren't you tired after your journey?

A little.

Rest a little before you go to Schwartz' house.

I've got some work waiting.

How is Schwartz?

- In bed, he's been ill. - I know.

Thursday he lost his memory for a short time.

My study.

The nursery

as you wished it.

Lindman told me your dressing table is on its way from Holland.

Truthfully I've been dying to share all of this with you but...

Frankly, I don't know what to think.

Your letter has given me plenty of headaches.

And insomnia.

Do you believe?

"I'd like you to know the reasons for my behavior.

And when we are alone I will explain it to you. "

Go ahead.

We can't be any more alone than this.

Tell me the reason for your behavior.

Does it have something to do with me?

Have I disappointed you in any way?

Speak.

Your smell...

I've been dreaming of it for six weeks.

Forty days

longing for you.

Forgive me, Charlotte.

I've embarrassed myself.

But the first few times are always awkward.

I have no experience as a lover.

The next time I'll be better prepared.

Less tired.

And less clumsy.

I was in the Royal Palace until four in the morning.

Schroderheim left at two and Leopold before midnight.

He wanted me to be there with him while they shaved him.

Seriously!

His Majesty wants his shave at three thirty in the morning

How lucky, Carl Ulrik, that you've shown me the house.

Indeed, what luck.

It wasn't premeditated?

No, it was luck.

Just luck.

But there are things that are irresistible to women

Furniture, for example.

How is it that you've considered leaving all of this?

It would soon be yours.

You're beginning to tempt me.

- Really! - Happy to hear it.

My tempt me to lie to you.

I imagine you thought

that you finally won me over against my will

When in reality it's much more simple.

I decided to seduce you.

I had a plan.

Do you want to hear it?

Though you're not obligated...

OK?

I'm not interested in lies.

The truth fascinates me.

I'm pregnant, Carl Ulrik.

I would love to have children with you.

And would you be willing to be the father of this one?

It depends.

It's a serious decision.

When did it happen?

A little after you went to Stockholm.

I can understand that you wouldn't want to know anything about this child.

So, this is the reason for your behavior...

Now I understand everything.

The best thing for you to do would be to marry the child's father.

Even if he's a miserable poor man

It has no father.

- That's quite odd, no? - Yes.

Very odd.

Was it an immaculate conception?

An angel?

More than likely a dream.

Without carnal contact?

Yes.

It's an immaculate child, I'm afraid.

In that case we'll move the wedding to as soon as possible.

We'll rush the work on the house.

- And my job... - My God, Carl Ulrik.

Don't do anything you're not prepared to do

if we're both going to suffer.

What do you know?

Tell me something...

before I accept you as my wife.

The child is mine.

It's yours.

- I have one other condition. - What?

That you never see the true father again.

Is that too much to ask?

No, I understand.

Katarina! Hey!

Stop that infernal noise!

Come in!

It's cold outside, good thing you're here.

Come, enter!

What a mess!

And to top it all gunshots!

They're crazy.

Katarina! Come down!

- Is there a fire? - No, it's a wedding.

- Quit playing! - Seriously!

- What's wrong with him? - He fell in the canal.

- Poor thing, give him a drink. - In the canal?

And what were you doing in the canal?

- He went to catch mermaids, I suppose. - With what kind of bait?

Yes, what did you fish with, eh?

What did you fish with?!

And you, what do you fish with, eh?

- My how they run around! - Ah, let them run.

- Have you seen the bride? - No, but they're close to the plaza.

Ah, so you want to see the bride, eh?

You really want to see her?

Are you sure?

- How old are you? - I don't know.

But you do know what to do with girls, right?

You know, right?

Katarina! Katarina!

We'll tell her to come down, eh? Katarina!

There a boy here that wants to know what brides are good for!

Hey, don't go! - No! Help!

Hey, come on kid, don't be scared!

Come on, we're going to discover the secret of life!

One

two, look at this!

And three,

and another, four!

Five!

Here it is, eh?

The secret of life, kid.

Paradise!

Look at paradise!

Beautiful, eh?

You prefer them younger? Katarina!

- What are you doing? - Adorning the pig.

- Katarina! - The bottle.

Her stomach.

- And in her ear. - Yes, in her ear.

- Is she sleeping? - Like a pig.

What a gracious ear.

I am sure he'll be a hit!

He's so talented!

You're going out of tune

- in the same place. - I'm singing it like it's written.

- You're not singing it well. - I think I do.

- You don't notice but you're out of tune.

- I sing it well.

Miss Olin doesn't know what to tell him!

- You know what I'm talking about? - Yes, of course.

Look!

In the back of the salon...

There! Back there!

It's the king.

It must be the king.

He's come with his court to see Jacob practice!

Oh my!

I've never been so close to the king!

What's happening?

Nothing.

I'm more willing.

Why?

I told you I'm rotten.

- We don't have to talk about this. - Yes.

I do it so it will come from the soul

and there is a distinct pleasure in it as well.

You're off by half a note.

It's no good the way you go off, and always at the same part.

- It's not possible. - Yes, I assure you.

- No, you're confused.

- I know this piece very well. - I too know it well!

- You're not the only one here with musical knowledge.

- I know what I'm saying!

Excuse me.

His Majesty has had an idea.

Are you okay?

I don't know if you'll get it.

For all the time you spent in Paris you leave a lot to be desired.

- No, no, please! - That's all we needed!

Now she's upset, well she's certainly got a temper!

But a temper won't get you anywhere! What a way to waste time!

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

You're stupid!

Good God,

Get out!

- We didn't mean to disturb you. - No, it's no bother! Welcome!

The truth is I'm honored to be accompanied by people so dear to me

What a terrible woman that Miss Olin! She's a monster!

Are you in better health now?

Yes, thanks, I'm much better.

Thanks, dear brother-in-law

I'm still not accustomed to calling you that

but I will.

We missed you at the wedding.

I'm sure it was lovely.

Count Schwartz, you're an objective man

you would be able to judge.

Would you consider my sister's wedding to be as she deserved?

Was it?

It was a quiet but precious ceremony, and in very good taste.

Like a work of art.

Of course, just as I imagined.

Orpheus wants her, but unfortunately

Eurydice resists him.

And there begins the failure.

He fails, and tries again.

Like everyone.

But don't forget that the opera ends on a good note.

An end with wedding bells.

Baron Alsmeden, excuse me, the king.

Excuse me.

Ebba, my love.

May I see you soon?

I need your help more than ever.

Excuse me.

- What is it? - Please accompany me, sir.

With your permission...

Get the doctor.

What are you thinking about?

In the punishment.

What punishment?

Go see what it is.

Did you want something?

Or was it Carl Ulrik? Is it he that wanted to see me?

He wanted to be sure you had money for the trip.

How nice! How he worries about me!

- Do you have the money? - Yes, just got it.

Where is he?

He's on one of his night walks.

As a friend to His Majesty, it's normal that he'd be with him.

It's going well for him.

Yes.

On Tuesday he came home at five in the morning.

They spent half the night in a cemetery.

Is he good?

Good?

Good in bed...

Does he make you happy?

Does he do it better than me?

- When do you leave? - The day after tomorrow.

Stay.

Is that what you want? After it's all failed?

- Stay. - Why?

Because I need you.

You don't even want to embrace me.

I round like a ball that's why nobody wants to touch me.

Not even him.

Jacob, please... having a child in the womb is not a disease.

- It's not contagious. - It's his child.

It's not his.

It's yours and mine.

You have to believe me.

Don't you want to be his father?

Do you want me to be?

Yes.

- But why didn't you tell me? - But I did tell you.

It was in the dressmaker's house.

And I promised to marry you.

I've never seen you so shocked.

You thought I was crazy.

So I understood you weren't prepared

to help me.

What cold!

This is my whole life.

To everything else I'm dead.

It's horrible to be separated from the only thing one wants in this world.

Sometimes I go crazy missing you

But I'm not asking you to feel how I feel

Kiss me! Kiss me!

Charlotte! Charlotte!

Sometimes I fear that the blame is ours.

And I don't want anything to happen to him I just want him to be born normally.

Come here.

You shouldn't worry.

Stop.

Control yourself.

Come put away these horses!

What does he know?

Nothing.

And he should never know anything.

He only has one duty in this life.

Protect our child.

Don't forget it.

He's gone into the sitting room.

He's closed the door.

Charlotte! Come here!

Yes, I'm coming!

- Stay here - No way!

Stay here until I say!

I'm coming right down!

What happened to you?

It's just a little blood, it's of no importance.

- What have you been up to? - Nothing, the games as usual.

Coal, chalk, and blood,

mirrors and hot rocks

The king has been in contact with the spirits.

They spoke to him.

I too heard them!

Duke Karl helped him.

And the king was so shocked he was pleading the Duke for forgiveness

for all the harm he had caused him.

A real orgy of guilt!

Are you alone?

Yes.

With whom were you talking?

- With Jacob. - What, he doesn't count?

Come down!

Conquistador!

Get dressed and come down!

Come down and welcome me!

Ebba is not with you?

- Where is she? - She left when you came.

You think I believe that?

Ebba!?

Why the hell do you always show up when I'm out?

And when I invite you, you never come.

- Let me go. - Don't give me orders!

Fail, that's all you know how to do!

You wanted to seduce the King with your voice?

If you wanted to make me look a fool, you succeeded!

I was generous enough to help you, only for Charlotte!

Leave the country so I don't have to see you!

Enough, Alsmeden!

Do not speak to me in that tone, Charlotte.

This is my house!

You should be thankful.

For my protection

and for everything.

What a perfect couple you are!

Break your relationship at once!

Why didn't you oppose my marrying Charlotte?

The law would have allowed you.

What do you think of the law?

You think that society is created by chance?

That the lashings and hangings are only to please the crowds?

Impulses.

You live for impulses,

like a dog after a bone.

How modern!

You dance to the rhythm of the times.

Write to me when you can.

For God's sake write me and tell me everything.

Then it won't be so hard to wait for you.

- You have that much to discuss? - Yes!

Is he still here?

No.

What are you waiting for?

Go to sleep.

Tell her to go.

Leave us.

Stay, Hjordis.

Leave!

Don't worry, I won't do anything to your lady.

I only want to ask her forgiveness.

I hate you.

So much that I could kill you.

Ah, finally the truth!

Why do you try to control that which you cannot hide?

Because I'm a gentleman.

Your goodness makes me sick.

And I don't trust it at all.

Hit me, if that's what you wish.

Not until my child is born.

It's not your child, and you know it!

But yes, it is yours.

- And nobody else�s. - Nobody else�s

- I never want to know who the father is - You'll never know.

It's his,

isn't it?

I love you.

And I love him.

Our little child.

Sometimes when I awake in the night,

I imagine

that's it's mine.

That I am also there,

And you let me...

Be with you both.

With us both?

To mean sleep with us?

That way I wouldn't feel like a stranger.

I just told you that I love you.

It's a lie.

I've accepted your actions,

but not for love.

Why, then?

To be more powerful.

Only for power.

Come here.

That's it.

- Better? - Yes.

Charlotte!

Miss!

Look.

How dare she go in there!

With that woman!

Everything is falling out of my hands.

I take opium to sleep,

but I lay awake all night.

I haven't a moment's peace.

- But I'm very frightened. - Frightened of what?

Of the punishment.

Please!

I must know!

Tell me the truth, Mrs. Koller'!

I need to know the truth.

Was it your father?

- May I now take your pistol? - Of course!

So long as you let me go hunting with you!

- We'll see. - Please!

When did you get these?

Last week, from Amberes.

Oh, he's there now?

- How nice of Jacob! - Yes.

Cologne.

Hamburg.

Brussels.

Always on the move.

You know why he left?

He told me not to tell.

Then don't tell.

He had to fulfill a promise.

He's lucky to be able to trust you.

It has to do with a woman that's pregnant with his child

He can't return until it's born.

She's accompanying him on his trip.

No, it's impossible.

You think Jacob lied?

Yes, I think so.

And why would he lie to me?

You don't know him. I don't think you know him.

So where is she?

Whom?

The woman who's carrying his child.

You're incredible!

- You're all lies! - Leave me alone.

- I don't believe you! - Hush and leave me!

- It's not true, I don't believe you! - Believe me or not, get out!

Get the doctor.

Go fetch the doctor!

Water.

Water.

A girl

A healthy girl...
