IMMEDIATE BOARDING

When I was born my parents felt they had won the lottery.

But they didn't know me yet.

They weren't as pleased later on. Especially not Dad.

He likes me, but I think he'd rather have a more normal boy.

The kind that plays soccer instead of the piano.

Then he might not have left, and Mom wouldn't be so lonely.

Martin!

- Mom says Dad's taking a time out. - It might be cold up north.

I guess he's trying to figure out what to do about us.

I could stay home...

Or maybe Dad could come here, so you could see him too.

No...

Sometimes I wish I was someone else, someone more outspoken.

I'm Julia. From day one l knew I had a lousy deal.

They weren't were wild about me either, though Mom pretended to be.

A kaleidoscope!

Then she met this new guy, who had a daughter, so she didn't need me.

But who cares, I don't need her either.

Julia!

No way I'm going to visit that bitch!

This weekend is special for your mother... and that Peter guy.

Even though things were rough last Christmas, you can't just give up.

And that daughter of his, what's her name...? My, that's it.

- You'll practically be sisters. - I don't want to have a sister!

I want to have a dog!

That's nasty...

I don't like traveling

but until Dad's made his mind up, what can I do?

Go figure... Mom gets herself a new family

but I get passed around like some kind of parcel!

I should go get myself a whole new family too.

A whole new family...

Here, take this mobile phone.

How can parents let their kids use mobile phones and fry their brains?

It's not like I enjoy sending my only child off to a strange man's house.

I do it for you, so you can interact with both your parents

even if one is... absent.

- Will you tape Robert Wells tonight? - Sure.

But doesn't your dad have a TV set too?

- It's time to go! - I really don't want to do this.

- Have a good time... - I'm not going, and that's final.

Let go!

- Can't you come along? - You know I can't.

I'll see you soon, honey.

Here we are. You're Martin, right?

I'll come and get you when it's time to board the plane.

Thank you...

Why did you say thank you?

You thanked that lady. It's their job to take care of us.

You don't need to thank them.

- Where are you going? - Up north, to see my dad.

He lives close to the Norwegian border.

- What about you? - I'm going south, to see my mom.

- Do you go there a lot? - I've only been there once since...

...since she... moved out.

She's got a new boyfriend. What about you?

My mother's not ready for a new relationship.

I meant, how often do you visit your dad?

Every four weeks and every other holiday, only...

- You don't want to. - I wish Dad would come back home.

So Mom wouldn't be sad all the time.

- Want one? - No, I'm a vegetarian.

I don't eat dead animals.

- Got any money? - 160 kronor.

- And ten Norwegian kronor. - Why do Norwegians water flag poles?

- Don't know. - They want the bulb on top to bloom.

- Want to go buy something? - I'm not supposed to go anywhere.

- Do you have a best friend? - Nah, that's just silly.

I agree.

Check it out!

Come on in!

That's London. Robert Wells played there, at the Royal Albert Hall.

- Who? - Robert Wells.

Some day I'm going to play there too.

- Maybe we're twins. - We don't have the same parents.

- We're cosmic twins. - What's that?

Pieces of the same whole, like broken bits of glass that fit together.

- Broken bits of glass? - Just something I heard somewhere.

Let me try these...

Wow, what a trip...

Give them back...

Try this on.

Want to trade places?

If we trade places we get out of seeing our parents.

Martin, where did you go off to?

Your flight's ready for take-off, we don't wait for little kids you know.

Excuse me... Could you help me out?

Julia, it's time to go. Julia?

- Welcome aboard. - Hurry up, honey.

This isn't the right plane, I'm going to see my dad.

I'm supposed to go to Norrland.

May we have your attention please as we demonstrate our safety procedures.

This information is also available in the folder in your seat pocket.

Emergency exits are located in the back,

over the wings, and up front.

A light strip along the floor will direct you to the way out.

Please check which exit is the closest to your seat.

Come on, Martin! How about some adventure?

- I don't know... - Is it true that you're a wimp?

- Well, are you a wimp? - No.

Then go for it! Discover new frontiers.

Show people what you're made of!

Good, it's about time you showed some spunk.

Let's hear it for Martin!

We would like to remind you that smoking is prohibited.

And we'd like to wish you a pleasant trip.

- Where could that dad of yours be? - I don't know.

I hope your mother told your dad when your flight would be in.

- What's his phone number? - I don't know.

- You don't know? - I've forgotten it.

Is that your dad?

Well?

Martin!

I'm so sorry...

Thank you, I apologize for the delay.

- I was busy breeding. - Bye.

Look at you... Does Robert Wells have a new hairdresser?

Wow, muscles... Have you been working out?

- How's school? - Fine.

- And your classmates? - Everything's fine.

- Great. - Good. Sverker will be surprised.

He thinks all you do is sit still and play the piano.

I can't sit still, and I don't play the piano either.

- Have you quit playing? - Not really...

- But I'm trying to cut back. - I see...

But you will play for us at the party, won't you?

- Gran's birthday party. - Oh, that party...

Gran's really looking forward to it.

As you can see, it's still a bit cold up here.

But down south in Malm� they're already wearing swim trunks.

Julia!

Kicki wanted me to pick you up.

I know you're a tough cookie...

...but you'll find I'm a worthy opponent.

Good, then we won't have a repeat of the Christmas incident.

- You've changed. - Yeah, my hair is nicer.

What do your friends say?

- Tell me. - They don't say much...

Your stepfather is a world-famous Gladiator,

of course you've bragged about it.

Be like Pollux: big, bad and beautiful!

The Gladiators, on TV. Don't you watch the show?

No, Mom...

- Mom doesn't like shows like that. - Are you nuts?

She yells her head off cheering. You'll see, tonight.

Listen, don't give My a hard time.

- Get in the back. - Hi...

My!

Hop in.

I don't usually sit in the front seat.

Funny...

I'm so glad you're here.

- I've missed you like crazy. - You have?

Of course I have.

Pop upstairs and say hi to your gran, I'll start cooking dinner.

I'll take your jacket.

Martin... is that nail polish?

- Isn't it neat? - It might not go down well here...

I'll take it off if you want me to.

Long hair is one thing...

But some folks might think nail polish is strange.

All the guys wear nail polish in Stockholm.

People would think it was strange if you didn't.

I see...

- I don't want you to get in trouble. - Why would l?

Martin, is that you?

Wait here in the car.

- Knock it off. - What?

- You are so busted. - It wasn't my idea...

It's not my fault your parents got divorced.

- I know that. - You do?

You told me you'd still have a mom if it wasn't for me.

Did I say that?

And you said you'd cut my hair off when I was asleep.

Oh... that was a rotten thing to say.

You should have seen the way the shop girls stared at me.

Their eyes were like this.

- Excuse me! - I knew it.

Right, do you have a pen?

I can't sign autographs without a pen.

- You forgot your change. - Oh...

Thanks.

People are always asking Dad for his autograph.

And he came to my school and showed everyone his muscles.

- Why? - Everyone wanted to see them.

Hi...

- You've changed. - Thanks.

Come on in.

- What do you think? - Pretty.

But the shoes are a pain, I can barely walk in them.

They set off your legs, Kicki.

And no one's got legs like yours!

Go and unpack, you can try on your dresses later.

Stay out of my room!

Sorry, I'll go to my room...

I need to freshen up. Flying leaves you all grimy.

Those pigs are the cutest! I wish I could have one as a pet.

- What's that? - A cream sauce.

It's very rich, so don't tell your mom I'm feeding you stuff like that.

About your mom... Does anyone come around to see her?

In the evenings...

Guys that come to date...

She's not ready for a new relationship.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked you that.

But that's just what she says.

Some people meet someone when they walk into a 7-Eleven store.

- Has your mom...? - No, not her. Other people.

Oh...

Could you tell Gran that dinner's ready?

Gran...

- Dinner's ready. - Who are you?

- Where's Martin? - Are you coming?

Who is this little girl, Torkel?

Mother.... It's Martin.

- That is not Martin. - Stop it, Mother.

Dinner's ready, come down when you're ready.

I don't eat meat.

- Since when? - Since... Thursday.

- I told you it's not Martin. - Stop it, Mother.

May I come in?

Have you seen... the room?

We weren't sure...

After what happened at Christmas we weren't sure you'd be here much,

and Peter needed some space.

So we packed away your things.

But they're in the boxes.

We really want to see you, and you do have a room at your dad's place.

Is his computer still in there? You should tell him to throw it out.

Your room isn't a junkyard, you tell him I said that.

Take your time and unpack your things.

You can try your dress on later. Right...

I'm just going to work out a little.

Your mother is lucky in love, that's for sure.

Let's speed things up...

No... that was a little too fast.

Set it for ten.

Aren't they gorgeous? - This one's yours, Julia.

This is what we'll look like.

- I don't usually wear dresses. - I know...

That's why I was so happy that you agreed to wear one

on this special and wonderful day.

What's this? Strange...

You seem to have gotten smaller.

- Doesn't your dad feed you? - Sure, he serves lots of pork.

- You don't eat meat. - That's right, I forgot that she...

...that I'm a vegrarian.

- Maybe I should wear something else? - No, I can fix it.

I really appreciate that you've started combing your hair again.

- Here they come, Martin. - Who?

- Hello, Torkel. - Good to see you.

- How was the trip? - A bloody nightmare!

- Where's Ma? - I'm worried about her.

- She didn't recognize Martin. - She didn't?

- Hi there, you poor little thing. - Mother's resting.

Well if it isn't Martin, the piano mistress.

Are they still mean to you at school?

I've got even more super-powers.

I can move myself with my mind.

It's true, I'll show you later.

Joakim could teach those Stockholmers a thing or two.

He never says no to a fight.

Hello, Joakim.

Show Uncle Torkel how good you are. Up with the left...

Come on, show him.

- Not bad. - He's good.

What are you doing with that?

- Are you going to sleep in here? - Got something against it?

It sounds like fun.

You like Norwegian jokes?

You know, the kind that poke fun at Norwegians. I know loads.

- That's news to me. - Want to hear one?

Know why Jesus wasn't born in Norway?

They couldn't find three wise men.

- Want to hear another one? - Know any dirty jokes?

Do you know the difference between a mailbox and a horse's ass?

Then we can't send you to mail letters.

- You've grown up. - You think so?

You used to be like a girl.

Excuse me, is it all right if I turn on the TV?

Go ahead.

Oh my God, it's eight! - Peter! - My!

Are you coming?

Welcome to the Gladiators!

Featuring Pollux!

What a cool dude!

Pollux - he's big, bad and beautiful!

He really cleaned up last week...

What am I doing here? I don't want to be here.

Why don't you do something about it?

Aren't you on TV?

- Take charge of your life, Martin. - It's not easy.

Sometimes you have to do hard stuff.

Follow your heart, Martin.

I don't know what that means, or what to listen for.

Well, you can hear me.

Are you the voice of my heart?

Now you see me, but before you know it, I will be transported...

- ...without moving a muscle. - Fat chance!

- Are you still here? - How are you, Ma?

Hello.

- Hello... - Martin... - It's Martin!

It's for me... I have this friend in Malm� called Martin.

Are you out of your mind? You can't call me here.

I've decided to follow my heart and tell the truth.

What? Speak up, closer to the phone.

These people are nuts and they're making me wear a dress.

- Say no, I would. - Then come here and say it.

- I'm not staying. - We agreed to trade places.

- I didn't agree. - You said you didn't want to go.

I said I wanted my dad to come home.

I might be able to help you.

Torkel's been asking if your mother is seeing someone.

That means he's jealous. He might be thinking about coming home.

Let's wait until tomorrow and I'll find out what he's up to.

I don't want to spend the night here!

How are you ever going to reach London if you can't even go to Malm�?

- By the way, your cousin's cute. - Jonathan?

Oh no, not Joakim...

If he tries to take Grandpa's moped again, you've got to stop him.

Okay, it's your turn.

- I didn't know you could drive. - You don't know me very well.

Want to go into town and check out the chicks?

Don't you know what chicks are? Or would you rather practice piano?

Then hop on.

Hold on.

Maybe there aren't any chicks around here.

Look!

Now don't make a fool of yourself. - Hi there.

- Don't you recognize us? - Unfortunately, we do.

- Is it all right if I pet your dog? - Go ahead.

- What's his name? - Rhonda, she's a girl.

- It's hard to tell the difference. - I know.

What's up? Want to have a ride?

On that?

- Is it fun to have a dog? - Not if you have to walk it a lot.

- We could come along. - Or we could walk Rhonda.

- Wait! - What a cutie!

Well, I think you're cute. Really cute.

- Are you going to bed? - Yeah.

- Me too. - Oh...

You're so different.

Compared to what you were like last Christmas.

- I never thought you'd wear a dress. - Neither did I.

- You looked nice in it. - Really?

- It was a little big, though. - Yeah...

You know what? As of tomorrow, we'll be family.

Is that good or bad?

I just wanted to say goodnight.

The kaleidoscope... I thought you threw it away?

- Why did you say you threw it away? - I don't know.

Funny how broken bits of glass can be so pretty...

And if two pieces of glass fit together...

- Then maybe they're... - ...cosmic twins!

You still remember that nonsense, do you?

It's not nonsense, it's true!

Julia...

My Julia.

I love you so much.

- Good night. - Good night.

Listen... about the dress...

I know you don't really like dresses.

It's actually kind of pretty.

Will you wear it?

29...

And one for Ma...

...and one for Pa.

Good morning. Two more, and that's it.

It's awful, but I haven't been able to sleep.

I'm so darned nervous.

But a tough cookie like you wouldn't understand that.

- I would too... - I know I shouldn't worry.

But I have this funny feeling something will go wrong.

Gran says that a troubled soul is a living soul.

Right...

Want to try some?

It's an energy drink. Sometimes you need a boost...

- Want to give it a go? - No...

Come on, girlie.

Give it a whirl.

You sit there and put your feet up there.

Whoops, that was too much...

I'll lose a couple more.

Good.

Good job, one more...

Come on!

- Come meet... - Rosa... - ...and Linda.

We work together at Salon Rosalinda!

On Monday they leave for the Barrier Reef, their honeymoon.

That's in Australia, you know.

- Won't that be fun? - They're not taking me.

Don't you know what grown-ups do on a honeymoon?

They mess around!

- No peeking! - I need to take a leak.

Go outside, this place is a ladies' room only today.

But it's my regular week to be with Mom anyway.

Actually, this week was Mom's week, only they switched.

It makes you wonder if they would do the same for us, move around, I mean.

I think my mother would like to have me all the time.

Now it's your turn, girls.

Exciting, isn't it? That your mom is getting married?

I don't think so, I think she misses dad too much.

Oh... Has she told you that?

No, Mom always says everything's fine even when it isn't.

Let's see what we can do...

Oh, not...

Martin's wearing girlie underwear!

- Check it out! - Yuck!

I knew there was something wrong with him! - Dad!

Could I do my vanishing trick at the party?

What a nut you are.

- Something's wrong with Martin. - To say the least...

If my son wore floral panties, I'd send him to military school.

He'd have no say in the matter, and how fair would that be?

Well if it isn't the piano mistress.

- I'm not a mistress... - That's not what I hear.

I hear you're pretty girlie-girlie.

- What the hell are you doing? - Let's go fix dinner, Martin.

- Does it hurt? - Of course not...

I dislike violence, but it was about time someone taught him a lesson.

- Why haven't you done it? - He's always been like that.

Listen, there's something I've got to tell you.

You see, I'm going to move out at the end of the month.

- Was that why you asked about Mom? - I want her to be okay with this.

- I'm sure she'll be glad. - I want you to be glad too. See...

I've met someone I like.

Dinner, coming up!

Her name is Eva-Karin...

Martin!

- I should have told you... - It's disgusting!

All you think of is your own pleasure even if means death!

Does it seem that bad to you?

- I never wanted to hurt anyone... - What do you use for brains?!

I want you to be okay with this, that's the most important thing.

I'll never do something like this again without talking to you first.

- Promise? - I promise.

What about the dinner?

It's too late to make any changes at this point,

but if you give me the chance

I'll tell Eva-Karin how you feel.

Eva-Karin?

- What about the pigs? - The pigs?

What are you doing here in the dark? The guests are arriving.

Don't be afraid, he's promised to talk to me beforehand.

And I'll never, ever let you die!

- Welcome! - Please have a drink.

Everyone at Twilight Cottage wishes you a happy birthday!

- For me? - Evert and Anna-M�rta chipped in.

- But not �ke and Mrs. lsaksson. - You can have two sets of china.

- Is my hearing aid ringing? - This is Martin and Eva-Karin.

All the grandchildren are here.

It would have been nice if Martin were here.

- He promised to play for us. - Martin will play for you.

- I can assure you he will. - Let's go inside.

Is it hard to walk with those sticks?

Yes, it's very difficult.

I can carry them for you, I'm really strong!

We will be hearing...

What?

I think I'll improvise.

The boy's improved.

- Don't waste our time... - He might not feel like playing.

- Considering... - This family loves music. - Right?

We love music.

- I wish I could play. - So, go ahead.

Do this.

And you do this.

Any more music lovers?

- How is everything? - Your dad is moving back in.

- Really? - At the end of the month.

- Thanks for helping me out. - You're helping me.

Go, you're free!

What are you, stupid? You can't trust a guy like that!

Save yourselves, run!

All right...

If you'd rather be Christmas dinner, suit yourselves!

I certainly do...

I do...

I do.

I do.

Oh, Kicki!

I don't have the words...

Your waist is like a wasp.

Your hair is like a wedding cake.

And those legs...

...are divine!

- You look good too. - So do you.

Could you pull over? I need to pee.

- Why didn't you go before we left? - Well she didn't, so stop the car.

I don't get it, she spent all day in the ladies' room, and all...

- I've got to go too. - Again?

See...

Wait, Julia...

...or whatever your name is, wait!

- Where is Julia? - In Renvattnet.

Up north, by the Norwegian border.

- Everything fine? - Yeah.

Need to make a call? You can borrow my phone.

But only if you look after Rhonda for a while.

The bride's a knock-out. Welcome to the church.

- I'm Peter. - Aren't you...?

You're Pollux, right? I always root for you.

- Thank you. - Come along, kids.

- How are you doing? - I'm fine.

You know... A troubled soul is a living soul.

I guess we won't be related after all.

- Is that good or bad? - What do you think?

Let's go upstairs to the gallery.

Hello!

Come here.

- Look at all those people. - I don't see well at a distance.

- I usually wear glasses. - I'll help you out.

Here come our neighbors. Dad says they're filthy rich.

And those guys work with dad.

Rosa and Linda are over there. - Hello!

Forget everything I told you, he's just like the rest.

- What do you mean? - He's met someone!

- But what about Mom? - All he cares about is himself.

Just like my mom, who doesn't care about me or anyone else.

That's not true, Kicki loves you.

- When did she say that? - Yesterday.

- She said it to you. - Yes...

- Then it's you she loves. - She thought I was you.

But it wasn't me. This just isn't working out!

I've looked all over for you.

- How long were you on the phone? - I'll pay for it.

That's all right, he took care of Rhonda for me.

- Bye, Martin! - You can watch Rhonda anytime.

What did she say?

She told me... that things weren't the way I thought they were.

- Dad's met someone. - So?

You didn't expect him to move back in with your mom, did you?

- Are you going to tell Kicki? - I have to.

It's your call, just listen to your heart.

Robert...? Robert Wells.

How could you be so careless?

- You know it's a rare antique. - I thought it was a moped.

Rare means valuable and special...

Just like you.

I wish you would tell me what's wrong.

Then maybe we could start trusting each other again.

Where's my old Martin?

- Doesn't that look scrumptious! - No, I think it looks tasty.

I'm not Martin.

I already know that.

I'm Julia.

It's time. You look great.

Are you ready, My? Go get Julia. Hurry up.

Give me a kiss.

Come on.

Come on, Julia. Hurry up.

We make our entrance when the bells stop ringing.

- What's the matter? - I have to talk to you, Kicki.

- It's not a good time. - Right now.

Let go of me...

- What is it, Julia? - I'm not Julia.

That's not funny!

She's got cold feet, she's going back to her ex.

- I can sense it. - No, Kicki would never do that.

I know it's hard to understand...

But it's like those pieces of glass in a kaleidoscope,

two identical pieces lock into place.

That's impossible.

That's what happened.

But... Why?

She traded me and my dad for a new guy and a new kid.

A kid with pretty hair.

Your hair is pretty too, but it wouldn't hurt to comb it.

May l?

Mom said she wanted to live on her own.

But then she met this new guy right away at a 7-Eleven store.

He has a daughter, so she doesn't need me anymore.

And now they're getting married.

I told you so.

In the presence of God and this congregation,

we have gathered here to join this couple in holy matrimony:

Peter "Pollux" Bergvall...

...and Kristina Linnea Lindstr�m.

We are gathered here to bless this union...

I'm sorry...

I can't go through with this.

Not without Julia.

Well?

- What are you doing? - What's your dad's number?

- What's going on? - Peter, please.

Does this have anything to do with Anders?

What's this, peas? Don't you want to be big and strong?

Peas are good for you.

Is pig-farming profitable?

- How are you doing? - I'm worried about Martin.

- If he was my son, I'd send... - That's it, I've had enough!

I'm sick and tired of being bullied by you all my life!

I'll have you know that I'm proud of Martin just the way he is!

I was going to say I'd send him to a music academy.

- Could you put Julia on? - Who is this?

- Put Julia on! - What are you talking about?

- Let my daughter go! - I don't have your daughter.

Dad, it's me, Martin.

- I'm sorry. - But...

- It's all my fault. - No, it isn't, Martin.

And it's not Julia's fault either.

It's all my fault.

But I've realized one thing...

You can't run away from who you are.

You taught me that, Martin.

We might as well get used to it.

Goodbye.

It was fun, wasn't it, Ma?

- Goodbye, Bodil. - Take care.

I was wondering... Would you like to be my girlfriend?

You wouldn't even talk to me a few hours ago.

- Now you're a girl. - I'm still the same person.

- Bye, Joakim. - Look at me!

Where did you come from?

Bye, Jonathan.

I've booked the first flight out to Stockholm tomorrow, and so have they.

- Do you think she'll want to see me? - I can assure you she will.

How about it, toots? Want to go fishing?

- You're not like other guys. - That's what they tell me.

You're so brave.

I'm not exactly a gladiator.

No, but you speak your mind.

You're brave for real.

How did it go, Martin? Did you have an adventure?

Good.

Here...

- Hi, Dad. - Hi, Martin.

- I'm so happy... - Me too.

- Boy, you've changed! - Don't say that.

No, you haven't changed a bit.

- So you're a newlywed, I guess. - No...

I couldn't go through with it.

Not without Julia.

- So it's up to me? - Yeah...

If I do it, what's in it for me?

You can... You can have a...

A dog?

Don't worry, Dad, I don't need a dog, but then again...

- Come, let's play together. - You're doing fine without me.

Please, just for the heck of it?

- So, you're going to Renvattnet. - And then to Malm�.

I'll be back.

Uh... Thanks.

- Where are you going? - To London.

- London? - Only we'd rather stay home.
