He speaks Norwegian as well.
You'll get far, my friend.

Come on, kids.

Have a nice trip!

The 500 Bill.

What are you so happy about?

Nothing.

I can see that something's up.

- Can't I just be happy?
- Yes, of course.

This guy tipped me.

- Great! A lot?
- Yes.

500 kroner!

- What will you spend it on?
- Nothing.

I've told you before.
You've really got an attitude problem.

Me?

Not at all.

- It's like stealing.
- Christ.

Who would I be stealing from?

From me, Jan, Marek, Krzysztof...

- And most of all from Bartosh.
- No.

I got it because I made him happy.

He would have tipped anyone of us.

I don't think so.

He was happy with me.
And I spoke Norwegian.

Tomasz...
Your job made him happy!

We're not only working for ourselves,
but also for our brothers and sisters.

I don't deserve this. I'm sorry.

Sharing tips is like paying taxes.

A great invention!

It works well here in Scandinavia.

Do you know the tax rate in Russia?

13%!

13%! Flat tax.

It's a tragedy!
The same with the U.S.

In Norway, people pay 40-45%.
In Denmark, even more.

I couldn't have invented
a better system myself.

Do Norwegian youths need to park
the cars of vacationers?

No.

Why do people like us do this?

- We're poor.
- And why?

- We don't have regular jobs.
- And why don't we?

Because we're poor.
Like our parents.

They did not contribute.
Society was a black hole,

so they started drinking,
and left their families.

Some of the sons
never met their fathers.

Not once!

I dream of paying taxes.

I dream of it day and night.

Serafin...

It's very sad that you have never
had contact with your father.

- Well, you haven't either.
- No.

That's also sad.

Here comes the Swede.

Have you talked to Bartosh yet?

- No.
- What's going on?

Bartosh is talking to all the
employees, one at a time.

- About what?
- All kinds of things.

Where you come from,
what your goals are.

Tomasz.

- It's your turn.
- Me?

Those smartasses.

This will give them
something else to think about.

Do you know what I think, Turid?

You've been moving too fast.

I think we have both been diligent,
with all the work we have done.

But I will take care of you.

I'm not going to run away,
just because my wife had a stroke.

Here we are.

That look makes me kind of uneasy.

You think so?

If there's something
you like or want...

from the things I suggest,

you may give me a warm look.

And if you don't like it,
look at me sternly.

Now, for instance,
I see you don't want more banana,

or am I mistaken?

Right. It works!

It works perfectly well.

Let's go.

I hear you're learning Norwegian?

Just a bit, in my spare time.

Spare time?

Have you got too little to do?

No, I've got more than enough,

but I read a bit in bed
before I sleep.

I have taken
4 Norwegian language courses. Or 5.

We can speak Norwegian,
if you want.

- Yes, okay.
- Yes!

How...

How do you think...

Shit.

Norwegian is a weird language.

Yes, and the weirdest thing

is that they have to use auxiliary
words to express future tense.

They have no future paradigm.

Interesting, yes, but...

kind of strange, right?

If you were part of the management,
what would you do differently?

I think it works pretty well,

but...

there are lots of cars,
so maybe I would hire more people.

No, you wouldn't.

That's a typical
Norwegian way of thinking.

Do you know what disease

4 out of 10 Norwegians
suffer from?

- No.
- They feel sort of feeble and tired,

and then the doctor thinks it's so bad
that he grants them sick leave.

Have you got friends at work?

- Yes.
- Yes.

Do you feel safe?

Yes.

- Are you happy?
- I'm not sure if I'm happy.

Not happy?

Well, I didn't really come to Norway
to move cars around.

I want my employees to be happy.

I'm trying to keep my spirits up.

Let's tell it like it is.

You have problems with authorities,
Tomasz.

You're doing things
that you haven't thought through.

You have made blunders,

which many bosses
would react negatively to,

but I believe in you,

and you will move cars
until I tell you otherwise.

I see.

Now give us a smile.

After all,

this is customer service!

Speaking of customer service,
I got a tip today.

Great.

- You planned to keep it to yourself?
- No, not at all.

Is this what you and Serafin
talked about?

I will ask him too.

We may have discussed
ethical problems

involved in receiving tips
when you belong

to an organization.

Serafin is a nice fellow.

- Yes.
- Are you happy?

I don't know
if you feel the same way,

but when this happened to you,

it felt like a reminder
of what really matters.

By the way, the doctor told me

to talk to you
about all kinds of things.

It's important to keep talking.

And he told me to sing.

- Hi.
- Hello.

- Nice to see you again.
- It's nice to see you too.

I enjoyed our last meeting.

- Are you doing okay?
- We're doing great.

And what about you?

We're also doing all right.

- Looks like you need a hand.
- That would be nice.

We're going to a birthday party
for Sveinung.

Maybe you would like
to roll Hjørdar?

Would you? Great!

Happy birthday to you!

- Hi.
- I'll be on my way, then.

You have time for
some coffee and cake?

- Yes, but...
- Of course you'll have some.

- She found the dress online.
- I wouldn't survive without it.

If I can't sleep,
I purchase something online.

Then I fall asleep right away,

especially if it's
from India or China or...

Because they wrap it while I sleep.

It feels good.
I work and sleep simultaneously.

But Vidkun just sleeps.

Vidkun?
Where does your name come from?

Sorry if that's too personal.

No, that's okay.

Who would call their kid Vidkun?

It's a family tradition.

We alternate
between Sveinung and Vidkun.

It goes all the way back
to the 1400s.

So, there is no Nazism
in the family?

There were Nazi tendencies,
but only for a short period.

The name was there long before.

OK, kids. One, two, three…

- A message there will be.
- Wonderful!

Time for hide-and-seek.

Who wants to be the seeker?

- What about you?
- Yes, I could...

Should I be the seeker? Okay.

- Maybe some adults would like to join?
- No, thanks.

I can join, if needed.

Great. Hugo is with us!

Are you ready?

1...

2...

3...

4...

5...

6...

7...

8...

9...

10...

49... 50!

Who will be the winner?
The winner is a sinner.

He who no hiding place has sought,
will be caught!

We're going to find your daddy.

You probably never play
hide-and-seek at home,

the way he hides.

We'll just call his mother.

Goodbye. Thanks for coming.

Hugo?

Hugo?

Hugo!

Hugo!

It's over now.

It's not really fun anymore.

Hugo, come out!

How would you describe him?

I would say he is good-looking.

Hugo?

- Yes, I think so.
- Yes!

I've never thought of that.

- It's not his habit to vanish?
- No.

He's a conscientious,
responsible father and husband.

He is always there for you.

I really don't understand it.

I sort of feel that this is my fault.

First of all,
we have to find him.

Guilt and all the complex stuff
can wait.

Well...

I guess it's time for us to go.

How was it?

He told me to park the cars
even closer together.

- Otherwise it was okay.
- Sounds good.

And he thinks I should do all I can
to keep Mina.

Okay. That one's mine.
Talk to you later.

Hugo is much weirder
than I thought.

Was he like that
when you went to school?

Did he hide and so on?

No, I can't recall him hiding away,

but I think
we should show tolerance.

We're all weird, in our own way.

- Where are you going?
- To Göteborg.

North of Göteborg.
Didn't I tell you?

No, you didn't.

At least it's written
in the calendar.

Sveinung, step outside.

It's an annual event
for the orienteering club.

I'll be back around midnight.

It's nice
that you've joined the club.

You men are good
at finding new activities.

Vidkun?

Aren't you going
to run in the woods?

Right.

There are so many things
to keep track of.

Thank you.

Step in from the other side.

Hi, Vidkun.

Well, gentlemen, this is Vidkun.

We've had many conversations,

and Vidkun will fit in well
with our group.

I also think that one of you
should offer him a piece of chocolate.

It's a long time ago.

Right. Nothing's happening here.

- How much have you lost?
- Only half a kilo.

That's not so bad.

It's nothing.

Half a kilo...

is half a kilo.

A pack of butter.

Half a kilo in three weeks
is nothing.

I think we should
get rid of that scale.

We have to see it...

in a greater perspective.

Just take our time.

Listen, Margaret!

Margaret!

I don't like it
when you're submerged that long.

Did you hear me?
Let's throw out the scale.

We can't do that.
We just started.

Of course we can.

How much weight have you lost?

Probably the same as you.

Come on.

- Step on the scale.
- Sure, I can weigh myself.

Go ahead.

I have lost...

one kilo.

You're much better at this
than I am.

Let's not start a competition.

I don't want that.
Then I'd rather quit.

I'm beginning to wonder
if I was adopted.

- Why?
- Mum and Dad are totally skinny.

Right.

And totally grumpy.

At least we are cheerful!

Dolphin?

- No.
- Otter?

Come on.

You believe
I'm thinking about an otter?

- You probably think bigger.
- Yes, I do.

It lives by the water?

That's pretty vague.
Could be anything.

- An elephant.
- No, but...

we're getting closer.

- Is it kind of soft and smooth?
- Yes.

- Sort of flabby?
- Yes. Keep going.

- Marine mammal?
- Yes.

- Weighing 300-400 kilos?
- More.

Sounds like seals,

but they don't weigh
hundreds of kilos.

- The Arctic Ocean?
- Yes.

- Large teeth?
- You bet!

- A walrus?
- Walrus!

The females weigh 800-900 kilos.

The males more than 1,200.

Hello, guys. We have a problem.

Two points.

1: In this municipality, only
one minute of idle running is allowed.

Idle running
leads to health problems,

and it's totally bad
for the environment.

And the other problem?

We can't find the keys
for the cage you are interested in.

And we cannot find
the tranquilizer gun either.

I see, so...

it won't happen?

Well...
we know where the keys are located,

and where the gun is,

but it will it cost us money for fuel,

and if our boss finds out
we have left the outpost...

we're taking a massive risk here.
You realize that, don't you?

Goddamn Swedes.

There's always something.

They want more money,
that's all.

- They've already got their money.
- And they want more.

How much do you want?

10,000.

Right.

We're not in a good position
to negotiate here.

10,000 Swedish kroner make
9,045 Norwegian, divided by five.

1,809 each.

Or 1810.

I don't like agreements
to be broken, but...

Goddammit.

1,800, more or less.

Okay.

No... Not again?

I know what you're thinking...

but it's fair play. I promise.

But even if it weren't,
you have no reason to complain.

Who has gone here
and talked to the right people?

Who has sent fucking Christmas cards?
I've been working damn hard...

for three years!

You were No. 1
at the Bear Park and in Kautokeino.

- You're always No. 1!
- So what?

Everyone will get theirs.

I'll buy yours for 1,000!

Don't be crude now, Rana.

Listen, folks.

This is it!

This is...

what we've been waiting for,
dreaming about. Now it's happening.

I've said this before:

We will maintain
a high ethical standard,

both for our own sake,
and for the sake of the animal.

There may be only
400 Amur tigers left in nature.

This is the world's largest feline.

Apart from the liger.

A liger doesn't count.

It's created by man!

But it's still
the world's largest feline.

I thought we had
finished this discussion.

According to all
reality-oriented criteria,

the Amur tiger
is the world's largest cat.

It means...

that this is the most gorgeous
animal you will ever get close to,

so show some respect.

This will work out just fine.

The guards will keep
their mouths shut.

Or they'll be
in it just as deep as we are.

That's not the problem.

You've never...?

Yes, of course.

Yes, I have... in the forest.

Sometimes...

some of them are just lying there.

- You mean elks?
- Yes.

But this, Vidkun,

is completely different.

- I think maybe I'll pass.
- Hey...

we've all been where you are now.

Never mind Sivertsen.
He's just a pompous bastard.

And this stuff about condoms...

that's all up to you.

Come now.

- I didn't know you were up.
- I'm up.

Maybe you're often up
when I think you're not up.

That might be.

Are you doing okay?

Yes, relatively.

It hasn't been easy lately.

I'm sorry about that.

Would you like a hug?

I'm not sure...

I need a hug at least.

- Maybe we could do it later.
- That's all right.

Hi, folks.

This is Rütger.

Hello, Rütger.

- Hi.
- Hi.

What do you drink in the morning?

Whatever you drink.

- Blueberry smoothie?
- Why not?

Isn't this a bit too much?

Cut it out. You agreed to this.

At breakfast?

You can do the same.

I think Jens Christian
finds it awkward.

We can't keep up appearances.

What are you making?

- An app.
- An app?

Yes, an app.

What kind?

An entertainment app,

for teenagers.

Family-like.

Kind of childish.

Do you know how to launch an app?

I've read about it. Do you know?

So what's your line of work,
Rütger?

I...

I travel around
and organize workshops.

Right now for those
who work with Anitra's program.

I have competence in health,

and nutrition,
interview techniques,

concept development...

and various other fields.

- A media man.
- You could say so.

And you?

Also media.

What kind of media?

- I'm a film director.
- Really? That's cool.

Something in the pipeline?

- I'm editing a film.
- Which was made in 1991.

Just a conflict with a producer.

But, still...

Media!

Excuse me for being
a bit straightforward.

But this would never have happened
in Germany.

This situation.

Never ever.

You really impress me.

You impress me.

And you impress me.

And you impress me.

I...

I'm so happy...

that I'm allowed
to be part of this.

Thank you.

Hello?

Hello?

Hi.

Hi.

- Did you have a good time?
- Yes.

I should have notified you before,

but we ran so far.

My cell phone was in the car,
and it just got so late.

You look so good.

Nice and fresh.

Like you've got
a new glow about you.

Thanks.

It feels good to be running.

Did you play?

No. I just sat and strummed.
Fooled around a bit.

It has such a nice sound.

Yes, it has.

Hi, Serafin. It's me.

I found some of your stuff
in my apartment.

I'm just gonna hang them
outside my door.

If you want them,
you can come and pick them up.

Please don't knock on the door
when you come...

if you come.

Is that for her?

I thought she made it clear
that she broke up with you.

I've been thinking about it.

It's probably not as clear
as I thought.

I believe...

she thinks I'm too tall.

Do you have any experience
with a short woman?

Why?

Well...

I have a girlfriend who is shortish,
and it's a problem.

Short women are wonderful.
You just need time.

- I think about her 17 hours every day.
- Yes.

There's something about short women.
They are special.

Did you ever feel like this
with someone short?

- I did.
- And...?

Do I pay you
to talk about short people?

The gray car over there.

Okay.

Damn, she has called me!

Hey, do you have any signal here?

No, I left my phone on the desk.

Fuck!

Did you ever tell her
you think it's sexy that she's short?

- Of course. All the time.
- Well,

that's the problem right there!

You should, of course,
tell her that she's sexy,

but not because she's short.

They have a horrible past.

Circuses and freak shows and all.

Big mistake!

Serafin, I didn't see you.
I'm sorry, I didn't see you!

Tell Mina...

that I'm sorry if I hurt her.

And that she is wonderful,

but not because she is short.

That's definitely not the reason!

Serafin...

Serafin!

Call someone! Serafin!

Just go!

Serafin!

- Hi.
- Hi.

They'll clear out the bathroom
on Monday.

Again?

- It's been years since the last time.
- Yes.

About two years ago.

Yes, and...?

Did I ask you...

why you sat quietly
in a laundry basket for two hours,

while Hjørdar sat crying?

At a children's party.

Did I ask you?

- No.
- Because you have your own affairs,

which I stay out of,

and I have my own affairs.

If I would like
to redecorate the bathroom,

then that's what I'll do.

Serafin,

you and I had
a nice conversation earlier today.

There was a lot you wanted to do,

and you had
many nice ideas about life.

Unfortunately,

you were crushed to death,

exactly today,

right before
the charter season sets in,

so this is just
a temporary resting place.

My friend,

we will bring you home
as soon as we can.

For now,

rest in peace.

I will have to let you go.
I'm sure you understand.

I didn't mean to do it.

I understand,
but what's done is done.

We won't make
any reports or anything.

That would only cause problems.

And your debt has been written off.
I have rules.

That's the way I am.

This is for you.

It will get you into town.

I don't know what to say.

It was really not on purpose!

That's life.

Hi, it's me.

Listen,
I've had enough of this now.

No, it's enough.
I can't take it anymore.

I want to go home.

No. You know what?
I want to go home anyway.

What?

No, but...

You're not being very nice now.
You used to be much nicer!
