Original subtitles

Josefine? You are beautiful.

"I won't tell you how. Well, maybe on our wedding night."

"We'll laugh about the repulsive whore who stinks in her grave."

Thanks for that ... "Your only love. Many kisses."

-The last letter isn't harmless? -No.

She has carefully built up a parallel universe.

She wallow in the fantasy of a love affair with the PM.

But Josefine Rohde caused her parallel universe to collapse.

Then she wants to prevent that at all costs.

The letter clearly shows she's going to kill her rival.

Monika and I are checking in now. We're going to Tel Aviv.

I spent five years getting you out of my system. If we go out-

I'll fall in love with you again. I don't want to.

29,900 SEK is expensive for a wedding dress you'll never wear. Bitch.

She took my bag too! My makeup, script, credit cards, everything.

Here we have the best close-up the PM's stalker.

My name is Josefine Rohde. A bitch, who deserve to burn in hell.

We must put out a press release. You need to distance yourself from her.

So, honestly - how well do you really know Josefine?

CAMILLA ROHDE'S PROPERTY Monday, September 22

Did you get a hold of Rachel? Well? Where are they going?

At her uncle in Benei Brak. It is a suburb of Tel Aviv.

Why are you so worried they're living at her uncle's?

He's nice. It is more his values.

Benei Brak isn't just orthodox. There you are ultra-Orthodox.

There is no television, theatre, film. There is no internet.

Even Rachel's mobile is kept secret.

Rachel has always been drawn to the absolute.

One doesn't choose to change direction at the abyss.

-Excuse me. The police. -Good evening.

-What are you doing here?. -Why shouldn't I be here.

-Do you have any identification? -It's in my house, I live here.

-I have a driving license in the car. -Okay. Yes, but ...

-Camilla? -I can't get into my house.

-Have a nice evening. -Why aren't you at the cottage?

Because you don't answer your phone!

Do you remember when Dad poured a glass of red wine on your dress?

-You sent the dress to the dry cleaners? Have you picked it up yet? -No

Was your receipt in the bag-

-the one the crazy woman stole from you? -Yes

I knew it.

I know my sister after all. I knew it wasn't you.

One of Sophie's so-called friends texted her -

-her aunt was in a video on the web. But you won't want see it.

Stop it! Of course I do.

-Are you sure? -Yes.

-It's me. -No, it isn't you.

Everyone will think it's me.

Look at the underwear. It's my bra.

When you meet your doppelganger it means you're going to die.

Dexter said that at a rehearsal.

-Have you been to the rehearsal tonight? -No.

Does anyone know you were here this evening?

-Here's your coffee. -Thank you.

Have a nice evening.

Two different cultures. You've separated by mutual agreement, etc.

-It's not her. -And the dress then?

At least, she wasn't herself. She must have been drugged or drunk.

Vestergaard ... You risk destroying everything.

All right. Then we'll say she's a poor innocent victim.

-And we'll report it to the police. -Will you shut up a minute?

Jens, just a moment. - Have you been here all night?

Have I been here all night? You've shadowed me since I left Jens ..PM?

-Yes -Thank you... Jens?

-Who are you talking to? -One of your bodyguards.

Then PET can couch you've been there all night?

There's a very nasty video on line ..with someone similar to me.

Your doppelganger, yes.

-Have you seen it? -Yes.

Did you also think it was me?

No, of course, I didn't. We'll get whoever posted it ...

And get the video pulled. Then we make the rounds of the editors.

It's defamatory to claim it's you in the video.

I wish I was with you. Try to sleep.

Josefine?

He also believed it was me.

THE PROTECTORS

Amager Beach PARK Tuesday, September 23

Come on.

You weren't in so long. Was it too cold?

-I just swam fast. -You're a wimp.

-It's unbelievable. -What?

How many different colors there are.

Earlier, when you were swimming, I tried to count.

I just went a few yards out and then had to start from scratch.

-Because it's constantly changing. -You're so poetic.

-How wonderful this is. -Your mom called.

She's happy. She was happy and just had a bath.

I'm just ...

-Yes? -We have an ID on Josefine's stalker.

Anita M�ller-J�rgensen. 170773-0914.

She lives on Lillestrandvej in Hellerup. She's a bank clerk.

-Have you sent the team to the address? -Yes. Trikker and Per are going.

The most important thing is we don't lose her.

Have you found her?

Have you worked through the night? Then you haven't read the newspaper.

-Good morning. I'll be right. -There was a great interview with Dexter.

-He has a premi�re the day after tomorrow. -I've seen it.

There's underwear, a clean t-shirt and a dress - the red one.

-If you need it. -Why would I need it?

See you. And go to sleep now, okay?

And pump the tires, right?

When you were together you said Dexter always needs a crows, even in private.

Is he still like that?

Have you read her new letter? Where did she find that information?

Through her job at the bank, she's looked in the PM's account.

-She knows everything. -He'll be glad to hear that.

-Yes? She's not at home.

A neighbour believes she may have left for work.

You stay there. Send an observation team on her workplace.

-Right now. -Yes.

We arrived too late.

-Trikker did well to identify her. -Did I say anything else?

And Josefine, then? -I've given her a bodyguard.

-When? -Last night after the video.

Was it wrong?

No. You should have briefed me first. Here's the file.

One damn scene in particular late in Scene 1 of Act 2.

Hello! Here's a real wine bottle. Obviously, you must remove it.

Find a carafe or something. It's Moli�re, not a Nor�n piece.

Has everyone gone home? Hello?

They must have put the lid on it. There isn't a word about the stalker.

Vestergaard is also the press Minister. King Arthur for Josefine.

-There are always some idiots. -We can't do anything.

"Young girl stabbed to death in the elevator."

A young boy stalked her. Now they don't use the word "stalker".

"He plagued her daily life, called, sent sms's."

"The police couldn't do anything until a crime had been committed."

I'm on my way, baby. Want me to hang it in the dressing room?

I loosened it so she can reveal a bit to the front and rear.

Yes, amazing.

The worst bitch by Moli�re I've ever seen.

And she has to be spoiled.

You've heard about the bitch who's stalking her, huh?

They should lock her up and throw away the key.

What? No. It isn't good for us either. Nobody wants a stalker.

Yes?

The cat still got out of the bag, then. The PM's furious.

He'll call in five minutes.

He thinks we should go out with the photo and arrest her stalker.

-I don't think we should. -Okay. Why not?

There'll be 30 stalkers tomorrow. It's extremely contagious.

Now the story is out. This evening, he should speak to the Danish press.

But they mustn't cover what foreign newspapers write?

You have lost your stalker. She is potentially dangerous.

We need the public's help.

If we expose her and ridicule her erotic fantasies-

-then she'll get really dangerous.

-What should be do? -We'll get her.

-Vestergaard wants to jail her. -For what?

-Death threats. -A funeral bouquet?

We also have theft. How many days will she get for that?

-What the hell do we do? -Keep a cool head.

This can open PM's eyes.

There are no laws against people like her.

Or to protect people like her.

She didn't have a chance. Not that I want to defend our colleagues.

But what the hell could they have done?

They should have just gone to the guy and said: "Stop it."

Many other countries have enacted laws against stalking. We have nothing in Denmark.

-It's him. What do I say? -If he passes legislation ...

... We'll do our job.

Benedikte T�nnesen.

-Dexter? Dexter? -Yes?

We need to change the arrangement for the intercourse scene.

-Let's drop it for the time being. Okay? - What do you mean?

I've talked with Jens ... don't be silly now. The PM.

Some English newspapers have printed pictures-

-Where she stands in the same way as when Jupiter mounts me.

You know very well-

-we can't let the Danish press dictate how we stage the play.

No, but I'll be there!

You're absolutely amazing. Don't stir it up.

Don't you understand how humiliating it is?

It's almost like being raped.

You are completely wrong. Make use of it instead.

Use what happened in your life. What is the play about?

Jupiter assaults Alcmene by becoming her lover.

He wants her love, but he can't have it. It's impossible.

It's just like in your situation. Make use of it.

It doesn't get better than this. Life and art blend together.

If it doesn't mean something to you, the audience won't feel anything.

It's wonderful. You're amazing. I love you.

You're absolutely amazing in that scene.

It's good, Josefine.

don't let the pathetic internet get in the way of you and your art.

-Yes, it's okay here. -Super.

-Are you okay? -The panties were in my bag.

They're over there. Dammit. She wore them last night.

"You might as well give up. He never marry a whore."

It's Jonas. -Yes?

She has been in Josefine's dressing room. She's likely left the theatre.

Ask them to lock up, so no one else can get out.

We send a dog handler and reinforcements.

Go to the theatre at once.

On with it! isn't him we're looking for!

She isn't here. The dog searched the entire area around the theatre.

But it found Bjarke Jensen.

-The guy with the stalker on the video. -Bjarke, stage hand?

The dog must have smelt him on her panties. We'll hear what he has to say.

You should know he believes ...

he was with me?

Dear God ...

Please help me.

Stop me. Stop me.

Our Father who art in heaven ...

Anita?

-Hi. -How are you?

-I'm going to work. -And you feel okay?

-Anita. -Yes?

I think you should go home with me to Lille Kingsley.

All right. There was still something I want to ask you.

As a physician. Something about my heart.

I felt the urge to come to Copenhagen to meet you.

What about Rachel? Have they arrived in good order?

-They're on a beach holiday in Eilat. -Okay.

Monika has already learned to snorkel.

Isn't it awesome with children? They grow up so fast.

-Aren't they at Rachel's uncle's? -Well, they were.

Have they moved? Why didn't you say so?

You can't just keep me dangling so I can't sleep at night.

And then say you don't give a shit. You'd thought you'd lost her.

-I have. -Monika?

-Hi. -Hi. Dexter.

Hello. Dexter Olsson.

What happened there?

Who's in charge of security here?.

It's me.

Oh fuck?

Then you can give me a safety briefing.

If we can run the rehearsal tonight.

Yes, of course. What did you learn?

Can we talk over here? ... Bye.

-What did he say? -I don't understand Norwegian.

Are you free tonight after rehearsal?

God, you're beautiful.

You asked me yesterday ... If I believed you-

-If I had moved my things to your place-

And slept in your bed and been with you ...

And I imagine how I stood outside your front door.

with my bags and my things.

And I knocked and you didn't answer.

And you're not at home.

Wait. Who made you so angry you could believe something like that?

If you really wanted me to, we'd have moved my things together.

But then I wouldn't have felt so damn intrusive.

I'm pushy. I've called you more than 25 times since yesterday.

I was happy to meet you again. Then you said you had to go.

to work; I thought you'd come back or call.

But all I hear is silence.

I hate your fucking silences.

Why did you kiss me just now?

Because I couldn't resist.

Goodbye.

Do you think the garden at Lille Kingsley is the same?

I've grown old, so I don't have any clients anymore.

We are just me and Uncle Gandhi.

Yes, and so, if you want to stay here a bit.

-I used to cut the roses. -Yes, they need it.

I just go inside a bit.

I remember one morning ...

It was a summer morning. I was nine years old.

I was carrying my red school bag. I walked down the street to home-

And I stood and looked at myself through the window.

I don't know whether it's me who walked down in the street-

Or if it's me looking back at myself from the window.

I remember two things equally well.

Both from the window and down the street.

The same thing happened yesterday. I danced.

-I saw myself. -Where were you dancing?

Were you at a party?

-You said you had a sore heart. -Yes.

I write and write the hospital.

But they never answer me.

I think I die soon waiting for surgery.

-Now you're here. -You can't operate on my heart.

You can see into my brain, but ...

Someone must use a knife.

-Is Alcmene ...? -Yes, yes.

Why was he so happy in our house after her Olympic anger?

You don't understand a thing.

All men should burn in hell. Even the best are but a louse.

You women see men so clearly.

You would really be in trouble if all men ended up in hell.

Will you make me angry? Wait, beautiful Alcmene.

I don't want to be alone with him who caused my pain. Let me go!

He's in hell himself! Why doesn't the damn revolving stage work!

Kasper, Lasse! three weeks, I've waited for this shit to work!

What's all this damn drama for? Go and burn!

I hate this damn dopey play.

No! How could you in your wildest imagination believe it was me?

Because I actually thought it was you.

-You thought it was me? -Yes. Yes, I did.

Then it's over. We don't need to talk anymore. No!

Let me explain. I thought you may have been drunk or drugged.

You thought it could be me. when you saw the video

-If I'd done something unforgivable but then I knew.

But it's actually even worse it wasn't you.

There's someone out there so full of malice-

And is doing everything to destroy what we have.

It mustn't happen? It mustn't happen.

Come on, honey.

There'll be a lot of crap.

-you get used to the conditions. -Do you?

You become angry, hurt, sad.

But you can't ever, ever show anyone.

'cause then they'd just want more.

Are you strong enough to handle it? Are you?

There are people who are happy to snoop in other people's misfortune.

Wilhjelm got us on "After Hours". We'll just be ourselves.

It's much more effective than all the denials in the world.

Are you ready to do it? Are you?

It's you.

Good, my darling.

Well ... What do you say now?

Sometimes you can get the idea modern psychiatry has more to do with patients-

-than with exact science, huh?

Here I went and thought our poor stalker was a technical virgin.

I was totally mistaken. She must have done it before.

-Have you read all of Anita's letter? -Most of them.

She talks about her refuge somewhere.

Later, she gives it a name: "Little Kingsley."

-I can't find it on line. -That's what we called it.

It was named after Kingsley Hall.

Of course. Why the hell I haven't I thought of that before?

Anita is one of lsabelle's clients. lsabelle Schulz. The psychiatrist.

Wonderful old witch. Can you get me her number?

Move a little.

She was with me in college, I remember.

It was the beginning of anti-psychiatry.

No therapy, no medication. We just lived with the patients.

They were allowed to live out their psychoses completely.

-The great hero then was ... -Ronald D. Laing.

-The Scottish psychiatrist. -How the hell do you know?

-He was dead when you were born. -My dad was into him.

-He said: "It's not the patients who are sick. It is society. " -Bravo

Here she is.

Jasmina. Can you come into Leon's office?

lsabelle?

Yes!

The PM's improvising Shortly he'll appear on "After Hours".

Then he'll go to the rehearsal at Folketeater.

-He'll skip the premi�re tomorrow? -Maybe he wants to see it twice.

The show is nearly sold out. Many tickets were sold in presale.

We don't know who bought them.

All right. There we'll find out. Call a briefing?

Yes. Now at least we know where she is. Anita.

She is safe with her psychiatrist at Falster. Lille Kingsley.

-It is down by ... -Here's the address.

Little Kurt! Come here. Anita is at Falster.

Send Per and Trikker there now. And send out local police.

Until our guys are in place.

From now on she will be under constant observation.

And, Boaz ... I want you to go down there.

You want me to go to Falster now? -Yes, I need your assessment.

If we can be satisfied keeping her under observation.

I've actually managed to stalk an old lady friend for three weeks-

And get a date with her tonight.

You can probably convince her to postpone it until tomorrow.

Women who cope with the worst in youth are fairly self-sufficient.

-But I'll at least try. -Jasmina ... you go with Boaz.

Come on.

Down on the set, ready for broadcast. Five, four, three ...

Love has many faces. Some have met the only one.

Others have to live with unwanted love from a stalker.

We have visited the mother of Mary-

-Who was murdered in an elevator yesterday afternoon by a young man

-who had stalked her for a long time.

Later, the psychiatrist Kristoffer Poulsen will try to explain the murder.

But first we want to welcome PM Jens Ole Vestergaard

And Josefine Rohde, who has her premi�re tomorrow-

-In one of Moli�re's lesser known comedies.

The great Norwegian director Dexter Olsson will direct the play.

But you will get married in less than 14 days.

Yes.

You've just returned from Paris and go to Brussels the day after tomorrow.

-But first, the Folketeater. -Yes, I have to see Josefine's play.

-Of course. -Are you nervous?

Yes. Fortunately. You get lots of energy when the adrenaline's pumping.

We're talking about stalking. Josefine, you, yourself were stalked.

-Is it hard for the couple's relationship? -Yes.

Only a sick person does something like that.

You make it sound as if feel sorry for her.

When you are stalked, the stalker whoever he or she is,

is a sick person who needs help.

And lives in an illusion. It has nothing to do with love.

A stalker is a terrorist with high psychological death rates.

It's understandably disabling having to fear about one's safety.

What is in flower bouquet, one thinks was sent by one's sweetheart?

Try to imagine the constant fear of being attacked.

The fear of losing one's life.

Or lose a child. It must be absolutely horrible.

It's almost blasphemous continue to talk about your love.

How about Josefine's thoughts?

Why do you think I've asked if she wants to marry me?

Unless I can get you, no else will you. Do you understand?

-What are you doing? -If not I can ...

I said stop.

"It is an old tub of water up at the farm."

Come here.

What is it Laing says?

"A psychosis is a journey through one's own mind with a new insight."

Now if you could just make do with the realization ...

So what?

Do you know ... yes, you probably do with the dad you have.

Know what the psychiatrist's most frequent complaint is?

People are afraid to reveal themselves when they talk to you?

You know what I think? With the father I have.

We're scarred of boring you with our banalities.

Or maybe we think the banalities don't concern you-

-Just because you are a psychologist or a psychiatrist.

What doesn't concern me?

That I took five years to understand I did the right thing.

Five years? That was damn fast. I myself feel-

-it'll take the rest of my life to reach that realization.

The security procedures are mostly identical to the premiere.

So consider this as a little dress rehearsal. Questions?

Okay. Rasmus and Jonas cover the PM. Jonas on lead.

Big Kurt and his stand in, cover Josefine Rohde. Big Kurt on lead.

-What do we after she is on stage? -It's clear from the instructions.

You are on the King's side, covering backstage.

I stand on the Queen's side, covering the audience room.

I thought otherwise I'd be on the stage as Jupiter.

I actually think we should focus on the task, guys.

And the little boy then?

That sounds good.

About half an hour.

Then I'll have ice cream. It's good.

-See you. -Did you see "After Hours"?

I didn't think he'd reveal there was a stalker.

Of course, he's going to marry an actress.

She's so emotional, isn't she?

She'll probably force us to show what we 're here for.

-Yes? Yeah, hey, it 's me.

We're here now. But we have become the priority.

In any case, there aren't any patrol cars from the rural police.

-Shall we go in? -Are Boaz and Jasmina there yet?

-They are on their way. -You wait.

-J�rgen! -Isabelle ...

She felt really bad. I tried get her through the crisis.

-I went to bed. Now she's gone. -How long ago did she go?

-Over an hour ago. -Leon, it's Jasmina.

Of those scruples, I wish to clarify in particular.

That you promised you would be honest.

The only important thing to you is your virtue,

-So that your full heart; kindled by love's joy-

-Is just your lover's embrace, wild and loving.

Amphitryon, Beware!

One would think you were someone else!

People would say you were mad if they heard what was said.

That he will not like. Since you now forget everything-

-I will not show you Your future?

-I promise you, it will be happy. -No, sure to be ready now.

Remember everything, except for this kiss.

What a kiss?

Stop it. I've just given the kiss of oblivion.

Now we have reached the end, so before we go home it's time to say:

With these kind of questions , my best advice: it is to remain silent.

Jens Vestergaard, I'm a great admirer.

Thanks for a great show. There are refreshments on stage.

Now the revolving stage worked. I was so happy.

Kristian, congratulations. - Dexter, neat! Congratulations.

It was fantastic Kristian Jung played both Jupiter and Amphitryon.

It was a nice way you deflected the dialogue with the mirrors.

And I liked the quote from Giraudoux.

Josefine said you helped her read the text.

What the hell was Moli�re thinking of? The thing Alcmene says in Act 3.

Are you a feminist?

No, not at all. But the play is about Alcmene, she must say something.

Women must have the last word.

The time when we had the last word, has long since gone.

There, she is. Josefine? Honey ...

-Why aren't you on Josefine? -We are.

Knife!

Relax, it's over. Quiet!

Okay? It's over. Calm.

Jonas ... Look at me. Look at me. Are you okay?

Is he okay? -Yes. It's you, huh?

An ambulance to the Folketeater.

Calm. Breathe calmly and slowly. It'll be okay.

It's over. Calm. -Thanks for stopping me.

Josefine ...

He leads her out from the car. Isn't it a bit unusual?

It is fashionable to do so.

Is it because there is this clash between politics and culture?

We see the political world, the PM's world-

And the world of culture and spectacle, Josefine Rohde's world.

Monika? Hello, sweetheart.

-Hi. -Hey, baby.

-Why didn't mom come up? -She said you'd know why.

Do it still hurt?

Yes, it does a little. But doctors said it'll be better in 14 days.

There's Rasmus.

How tanned you are.

Mom said you're very good at snorkelling.

Can you make pizza with one hand?

-I don't think so, unfortunately, little lady. -Then I have to stay here for 14 days.
