Original subtitles

You can't sell outside the family. - I just did, to Henriette Winter.

The sooner you accept we don't want you the better.

Hi, my name's Angelo. - Welcome to paradise.

You missed the kids' last night home. - Bojan wanted to discuss the sell and it got late.

We can do great things together. Come, I'll show you the bar.

You've met Miss winter behind my back. Keep this up and I'll kick you out!

Get Calle, I'm bleeding!

It was nothing to worry about. You're gonna have a baby.

If you work and don't complain with the rest of the staff, maybe you'll get paid next week. Understand?

How long is Backe gonna stay? - He's not leaving.

We want you in charge.

According to paragraph 8, the other DK shareholders can make a counter-offer.

Gustaf, have you sold the DK? You got the money?

Yes, I have it.

It's much lower than Miss Winter's offer. - It's a reasonable price for your share.

Go to hell, mom!

ENGLISH SUBS BY BARISHNIKOV

Miss Winter... excuse me.

You have a moment? - Yes.

I'm ready to close the deal. - Shall we call counselor Lager?

I don't need him if you don't.

I wanna do this as quick as possible. - Ok, I have the contract in my office.

You're a man of action. I like it.

EPISODE 13

- OLD AND NEW FAMILIES -

How you're feeling? I brought you something to drink.

I don't feel too well. - This will make you feel better. Drink.

He got worse? - He's coughing up blood.

We gotta get him to a doctor.

Good.

He's here. Wake up the others.

Let's go, Cesare!

Another week has gone. How do you like it here?

Electricity and heating... better than the last place.

The money isn't right.

What is it now? You're aways complaining!

This money is for 4 people, we're 5! Tell him!

Pay... for five.

This is for 4. - 1... 2... 3... 4... I see four people here.

Where's old Guido?

Guido is not well.

He sweats.

Poor guy... but then again only four of you have been working, not five.

This is for the rent. You're not staying here for free.

Come on, hurry up or you'll be late.

Doctor... Guido... help.

You heard him?! - Help!

You asshole! It's our money! - Leave it, Sandro... you'll just make it worse.

Fucking asshole!

Listen...I thought we could say it today.

Alright. - I need to make happy thoughts.

When exactly? - Peter and I will meet mom at 10 o'clock.

Beef rolls for lunch. Andersson will prepare the meat.

I don't want any guest with cartilage stuck in their teeth.

Hans-Erik, you do the stuffing. Bread, parsley, anchovies, onions.

Broth must be filtered. - It's already been done, Chef.

Who did it?

Who of you did it?!

What are you waiting for? Get to work!

You got that from the liquor cabinet? - Yes, it's a surprise for the family.

The Chef must see that everything's ok, including this.

You wanna try it? - No.

You filtered the broth? - Yes.

Long boiled and filtered, just like you taught me.

You wanna try the broth as well? It's creamy, strained and it's cooling off.

Something smells delicious. Good morning. Henriette Winter.

Hans-Erik. - Nice to meet you. Henriette Winter.

Who are you? - Chef Backe? Nice to meet you.

What are you doing here? - Calle didn't tell you?

I'm the new associate, we'll see each other often from now on.

Yes but... no one comes into my kitchen without my permission!

No, of course... you have work to do. - Thank you!

Just a few suggestions about the menu. - About the menu?

Something Danish maybe, like pork tenderloin, "smørrebrød"...

"Dyrlægens natmad", chicken salad... - Let me make this very clear...

I'm just kidding! Your menu is excellent, with this young man's help.

Well... I'll see you then.

Looks delicious!

What you're looking at? Back to work!

Why haven't you told me about her? - Nina said it's Peter's job.

Hi, Nina. - Hi, Henriette.

Welcome aboard. - Thanks.

Can we talk? - Of course.

I have a little surprise. - What is it?

It's in the restaurant. Shall we go? - Alright.

An architect made some changes to the Nya Teatern.

He made a sketch of how the room might look like.

This concerns you. - Yes.

You thought about something like this?

I haven't thought anything specific yet but this looks good.

It would be a totally different place with a drink bar over here.

More cosmopolitan. More international.

The bar itself could be larger. We don't need all the seats.

No, good idea! Good morning, Peter.

Chef Backe told me you were in the kitchen.

I just went to introduce myself. - You have no business there.

I'm an associate, Peter. - It doesn't matter. I should be telling them anyway.

I assumed you'd already told them everything.

What's that? - A sketch of a counter... a drink bar.

You can keep this. Think about it.

It was completely her initiative. - It was a waste of time, there'll be no bar!

At least take a look at the drawing... - The DK will not become a damn drink bar!

Hey! The tone!

Hi.

Not now... not the right time. See you later.

What's that? - Nothing.

She's been here a week and she's taking decisions behind our back!

She was also bothering Backe! - It's gonna be a tough 7 years...

Ester is talking to a lawyer, we're gonna try to invalidate the sale.

Can I say something? - Forget about the bar.

Henriette is a bit overbearing, I know. That's how Danish are.

But she's also good at her job. Look what she's become from nothing.

Also, your offer to Gustaf was too low.

Can't we at least see what she's got to offer? Listen to her?

Nina might be right, Peter.

According to Björnsson, we'll have a hard time trying to invalidate Gustaf's sale.

We'll find another way. We gotta get rid of her.

Hello. - Hi.

Morning, Director. - Hi. Hammargren...

The glass of the menu board is broken. Any idea, Hammargren?

On what? - On how to get a new one. It's important to attract customers.

I'll think about it. - Good. Is Bojan...?

Office.

The Director is the new owner then? - Seems so.

Then you can do whatever you want. - That's the idea, Hammargren.

Morning. - Morning.

So, Gustaf... the cash register will soon be full again. - I hope so.

There's a few things I'd like to discuss. - Of course... now?

Maybe tonight. I'd like to show you the new profile.

Tonight I must go to Sunne. My mother fell and now she's in a hospital.

I'll wait.

We'll see it when I'm back. - Of course.

I got you a new desk, it'll be here tomorrow.

You shouldn't have. - Why not? You deserve the best!

Thanks, Bojan. I hope your mother will get better.

Beef rolls. We haven't done those in a long time. - They're "legendary"... says the Chef.

Berns started doing Asian dishes. Imagine if we did that.

We'll fly a man to the moon before Backe agrees to that.

When are you moving? - Anytime, I just have to arrange everything.

Uno and I can do it a bit at a time. - But we can help you, can't we?

Roos! Shall we help Maggan moving? - Now?

Not now, silly! When?

Tomorrow? - No... I don't know...

Good, it's decided. - I have to check my schedule.

Why me? - You speak a little Swedish.

What should I tell him? - That we can't go on like this!

One of them collapsed. Ragnarsson never told him he was entitled to eat.

What do we have to lose? - Our job!

Nonsense! Who's gonna wash the dishes then?

He will replace us in a second. - It can't get any worse than this!

Hi, I'm Margareta. I'm a union delegate, can I help you with anything?

What's she saying?

Is it Ragnarsson? - Ragnarsson?

We gotta listen to her! - We'll talk later.

Here comes daddy! What did they say?

Everything checks out, she paid all the taxes.

Can the Danish have business here? - Yes, sadly. That's all I had.

Two companies, one non-active. Anything else?

Yes, in Copenhagen. - Then we'll go there.

I can't leave the DK in Henriette and Nina's hands.

The band starts at 8 and guests will come by 7. You must eat before that.

Hi. What was that? - Sorry, a little problem with Henriette.

She came to the kitchen to introduce herself. She pissed off Backe quite a bit.

It doesn't take too much effort.

Listen... I think you should tell Helga. - I will.

I must go back. - I'll see you.

"But all they wanted was crow's feet"... Hi!

Is Ester here too? - She went out. The kids are here till dad comes.

I won't other you. - Stay, please. I'd like to talk to you.

Read, grandma! - You keep reading, I have something to do in the ballroom.

Hey. - Hey!

Angelo. - Margareta... "Maggan".

Magga... will you help us with Ragnarsson?

Of course, if I can. - Ragnarsson no good...

Your union... Ragnarsson... stop.

You come... my friend...

Sick. - Sick? Your friend is sick?

Ok. Where is he?

Ragnarsson owns this place? - Yes.

Sandro, this is Miss Magga. She's with the restaurant union.

Good evening, Miss Magga. - Good evening. The Director knows you live here?

Guido has been sick for weeks, he needs a doctor.

Doctor? - Doctor... yes.

Calle, you got a minute?

According to Cattelin's Chef, some of ours went looking for a job there. You know anything about it?

Yes, some of them are taking a look around. - Is there a problem in the kitchen?

No... only last week was very tough for everyone.

Anything to do with Backe? - No... I don't think so. Everything's as usual.

Good, otherwise let me know. - I will.

You're going home? - Yes, it's my night off.

Say hello to Nina. I'm sorry, you have a moment?

Thanks.

We got off to a bad start. - Whose fault might that be?

That's open to debate. - You're just not welcome here.

I'll stay away from the kitchen and from Backe. - That's definitely a good idea.

But I wanna be present when your family discuss the restaurant, which is something you did today.

We're a family, we meet when we want to.

If you talk business, it's an official meeting and it's illegal to withhold information from a shareholder.

Löwander - Hi, dear. How's going?

Hi. - You sound strange.

I'm in a meeting.

Is she there? - Yes.

The non-active company is a family business, Brandt & Winter.

Henriette tried to dismantle it.

Yes, that sounds promising.

Tonight I'm meeting with one of the partners, Fredrike Brandt.

She might have more information. - Excellent. We'll talk tomorrow.

Good news? - I'd say so.

I hear Henriette Winter was here. - Why haven't you told me about it?!

We still hope to stop the deal. - You thought I couldn't behave? Thank you very much!

I'm sorry, I should have told you. - She made remarks about the menu!

You know what she thinks we should serve? "Smørrebrød"! Like we're some Jutland's tavern!

Stig, you where Calle is? - It's his night off.

She can take her curry pickle and shove it... - Can we discuss this later?

Wait here, please.

Helga...? - Good evening, Calle. Can I come in?

Of course, come in. Nina's at work.

I know, it's to you I wanna speak.

So... you live here.

I haven't been here since you moved.

It's not big but we're fine.

Can i offer you anything? - No, thanks. I won't stay long.

Sometimes Nina and I have trouble communicating.

We hope she'll learn that not everything is about having fun.

Could you explain to me what was that bottle of Champaign for this morning?

It's probably best if Nina tells you. - I see.

I didn't always approve Nina's choices but I know how important you are for her...

...and you're also important for me. I'm glad I get the chance to tell you.

So... shall we talk about that bottle of Champagne some other time?

Goodnight, Calle. - Goodnight, Helga. Let me walk you...

I'll find my way out, thanks. It's not that big...

Wait!

I know Nina's supposed to tell you but...

...my mother-in-law has the right to know that we're gonna have a baby.

Calle... it's wonderful!

Now I'll have to tell her you already know. - Yes.

It's wonderful! Get inside, you'll catch a cold!

I was with the dishwashers yesterday. They live in a warehouse!

You wouldn't believe it! One of them is also very sick!

I'm ashamed to work at the DK. - What can you do about it?

Peter Löwander needs to know about it.

Everything looks new. - It is, it's just been built.

In 20 years we'll all be living here. - You think so? I doubt it.

Where's our place? - Up there.

Well... I'd never seen so much cement in my entire life.

That's good. You wanna see my room? - Yes.

In here. - Looks nice.

Hello! Can someone help me here?

I'll take that. - What is it?

My new "Lövet" coffee table.

Then you've been screwed 'cause it's got no legs!

Where are the legs?

But... it was a mail-order.

Why don't you check inside this package?

I'm sure you'll find the legs in it... my Miss.

"Lövet"... what kind of a name is that for a table?

What's this? - I've prepared a new dessert.

Did I ask you to do it? - No, it's a one-off.

It's not the right season! Lemons and berries in January?!

We can use frozen berries.

I'm sorry, Calle, but I'm still making the menu. - Of course, Chef.

If you don't like wearing clogs, you can pack your stuff and leave.

Can I go?

You're having breakfast or can I clear?

Look at this.

The Djurgårdskällaren in the 30's. See the paintings and the lighting?

That's what I want for the Oscarshof. Not everyone likes modern things.

We'll attract some of the DK customers, the ones that know me.

What do you think?

Bojan and I will have an after-hours meeting tonight.

I'll probably be late.

What's wrong, Astrid? You got so unresponsive.

I'm fine... what could be wrong?

Good.

They live and sleep in a cold warehouse.

Ragnarsson deducts most of their salary for food, despite the fact they all eat here at the restaurant.

Thanks... - If they're sick one day, they're deducted a week's pay.

We have a new health plan to cover when one of them needs immediate medical attention.

I see but... - They're not in the union but they're working here as well.

It's my duty to inform you about these irregularities... - Thanks, that's enough.

If I can speak now...

Ragnarsson is taking care of the salaries. I don't really know about that.

It's not my priority at the moment.

If you don't do anything, I will alert the union...

It's not necessary, I'll look into that.

Good.

Thank you, Director.

How it went?

I knew it!

Great job! - Thanks.

It went well. - Go now.

Goodnight. - Goodnight.

You need to stop harassing the Italians. Margareta told me they live in a warehouse.

You told me to put a roof over their heads. - Where do all the deductions go?

I have expenses too.

You'll be responsible if this comes out. I want you to give them their money back.

Really? What money?

You're paying them half the salary! They must get an adequate pay!

Who you've been talking to? - Margareta Nilsson.

I mean which one of them. Sandro for sure.

No, the newbie. Angelo.

Angelo...

Good. - Good.

Yes...

I'm going. Shall I leave the keys to Margit?

I'll close. I'm waiting for Bojan, she went to see her mother in Sunne.

She went to see her mother? - Yes.

Goodnight, Director. - Goodnight.

What did you wanna talk about? - Our future.

I can't wait for it. Of course you can meet with your family without me.

But if it concerns the restaurant, iI need to be present.

I'm not talking about family meetings.

Is it about the drink bar? You realize it's the future of the restaurant?

I know what's the restaurant's future and you're not part of it.

What you mean?

What's she doing here?

Welcome, Fredrike. Peter Löwander.

Good evening, Peter. - Good evening.

Evening, Henriette.

Have a seat, please.

You seem surprised.

Miss Winter, why you're leaving now that your sister's here?

Half sister... and we have nothing to say to each other.

She demands half of your activities here in Sweden.

She lost every case in Denmark.

Under Swedish laws, the results might be different.

In your dreams, Peter!

We'll provide her with the best lawyers in Stockholm.

It's gonna be a long trial, Miss Winter. It might take years.

Your past will come up. Are you familiar with the "right of access"?

I am. You think it applies to the DK?

If you wanna throw shit around, let's do it. I'm ready.

How was the meeting? - She didn't show up.

Was it some misunderstanding?

Gustaf? - Go to bed.

Yes?

You wanted to see the salary reports? - Yes, come in.

Here's the cooks' hours and this is the new seafood supplier.

Did you solve the problems in the kitchen? - What problems?

I heard some cooks are looking for work elsewhere.

Who told you that? - I had a talk with Calle and he happened to mention it.

Why would they wanna leave?

I'm sure it's nothing.

Fuck it!

There's been no deposit. - Nothing at all?

What's the balance? Zero?

There was no recent deposit...

You got visitors. - Tell 'em to come back.

One is a policeman.

Gustaf Löwander? - Yes, with whom am I speaking?

Lönn, bailiff's office. These are assistant Nyblom and officer Ström.

We've been trying to track down Ingeborg Strömvall. You know where she is?

No... perhaps in Värmland. - Värmland?

In Sunne... I don't know. What is this?

Oscarshof is frozen. Creditors claim it went bankrupt.

Are you the new owner? - Yes and there must have been a misunderstanding.

We had much correspondence with Strömvall. Can we see her office?

If you'll give your keys to constable Johansson... it's just practice.

Of course... let's see... here...

Löwander! Stop!

Sandro. - Yes.

Angelo.

Two pikes and sweet-and-sour veal.

Welcome back. - Miss Nilsson, how are you?

Fine. Thanks for the Vällingby tip. - You moved in?

Just yesterday. - Then I'll invite myself over for coffee.

It'll be my pleasure... thanks again.

Table 7. Two pikes and one veal. - Two pikes and one veal on their way!

Everything ok? - Yes, yes...

Guido? - Ethel brought Guido to the doctor.

Thanks. - Cesare, look at here!

Finally!

Don't stand there! Keep working! I need a word with you.

You told the Director the cooks aren't happy? - No.

Then why he says that? - Say what?

That you complained because some cooks wanna leave.

I didn't say that, Peter just heard that someone was looking for another workplace.

So you knew all along? - Yes, someone mentioned it.

Who?

I won't name names. - You won't?

Is it someone from the kitchen?!

Your job is to see that each cook is doing is job and not to talk behind my back!

I have never talked about you behind your back!

In fact, I defended you! - Defended me? From what?

I have never had such a disloyal head cook!

You're being unfair! I backed you up so many times!

Get out of my sight.

I don't know what to do. Should I just pack and leave?

Sure you cannot leave! - What then? He thinks I went behind his back.

Honestly, this can only get worse.

You are the future of that kitchen. Perhaps it's finally time he steps down.

I'm sure not gonna tell him that.

Wrong time? - No, it's ok.

I was gonna wait. Calle told me everything.

I'm so happy for you.

Your sister told me plenty about your family business.

You transferred the assets and let Brandt & Winter go bankrupt.

That company was worth something because of me and I did nothing illegal.

You also had a Swedish branch, in Malmö.

That was before clearing out... and that's where it gets tricky.

What do you propose?

You sell us your share of the DK. - In exchange for what?

We're not gonna help your sister in the legal action against you.

What about my other Swedish activities and the Nya Teatern?

They won't be affected.

Punching an officer and trying to escape... that's serious.

You are very well known around town.

How did you end up tangled up with Ingeborg Strömvall?

She believed in me. - And you in her... obviously.

Didn't you know she was under investigation?

For financial crimes, among other things. - But she always went free.

You're saying she was wrongly prosecuted?

Strömvall took a plane to Frankfurt yesterday, then she went underground.

Sign here.

Cheers! - Cheers!

You know what? We could buy Henriette's share ourselves.

It's because of us if she goes away. - It is.

As a partner, I'll attend family meetings and you'll be more safe.

Then what? - We mortgage the restaurant.

Interest rates and amortization? - The restaurant can take it.

Depends how it's done. You just have to be clear about it.

Mom and Nina are not gonna like it.

Trust me.

The cleanest I saw in 10 years.

Thanks. Goodnight "capo". - "Capo"?

Finally I get addressed with respect.
