Original subtitles

- Rose is pregnant. - Congratulations.

He's very kind, but Rose is not in love.

You have lousy excuses for why you don't see your children-

-and just keep on working.

What's up, Anne?

Is there anything you want to tell me?

- Have you been drinking? - No, I haven't.

One false move and you're out.

I'm going travelling. For a long time.

We might as well split up.

Say goodbye properly.

- Christian had a daughter with his ex-wife. - He has a daughter?

Maj died. She was only 15.

- Do you have any photos of her? - I got rid of them all.

- Did you? - You should look forward and not backward.

Come in.

- Hi, Steffen. - Hi. Thank you for last time.

- Am I interrupting? - No.

It's about your sister...

I don't know why your father says she's dead, because she's not.

She's 28 and she lives in Åbyhøj.

- Hello? - Hi, Dicte.

- Hi, Dicte. Do you want coffee? - No thanks.

Why did you say that Maj was dead?

Because she's not. She's in perfect health.

Why did you lie about it?

Because it's a closed chapter in my life.

When Maj's mother and I divorced I had no contact with Maj.

Then my ex died. Suddenly one day Maj showed up here. 15 years old and stoned.

When she left, half my silverware was missing.

You were the only one she had.

I tried to help her with housing and school-

- but she only cares about money, so I had to say stop.

Maj is very odd. Don't look her up.

- I have to meet my sister. - She uses people.

She'll just upset you.

- Bye. - See you.

Hi. I'm Dicte. Your sister.

Or half sister. I emailed you.

You said I could come. Is now a bad time?

So you didn't know that you had a sister?

- Have you just moved here? - Yes, I was studying in Silkeborg before.

Mum.

Lie down. You have to sleep.

There. Now go to sleep, darling.

- I didn't know you had children. - Yes, Hector. He's three.

- Does Hector's father live here too? - No.

I have also lived alone with my daughter Rose.

But she's an adult now will soon have a child of her own. I'm going to be a grandmother.

Sorry, but I have to bring in the laundry before it rains.

Of course. I just wanted to say hello.

I think it's cool to have a sister.

It's on fire!

- Is there a baby in it? - No.

- Who does something like that? - Maj... What is it?

It was my buggy. It's Hector's.

Are you afraid that it has something to do with you?

What? No, of course not.

Maj?

Rose? Hi sweetheart. Have you been to Anne's house?

- Yes. - What did she say?

That blue baby clothes are fine, even if it's a girl.

- And I'm having pre-contractions. - Exciting.

Then maybe it'll soon be time.

One of my teachers was in labour for 26 hours.

She tore everywhere and had to be sewn all the way up...

Don't listen to that stuff.

I wish that Anne could be with me.

It'll be fine in the hospital. They're really good there.

I'll be there and maybe Dad. If he dares.

- Don't be afraid. - I won't.

- Hi. - Quiet. The boys are asleep.

I talked to Rose. Can't you be her midwife?

Well, if she gives birth on an aeroplane.

I would really like to, but I'm not a nurse anymore.

This connection sucks! I'll have to start all over.

You're not much fun anymore.

Probably because of the children, and the 25 people under me in Geneva.

You've been stressed before, but you'd still come over unannounced for a few drinks.

- You don't do that anymore. - Don't make me feel guilty.

I have so much to tell you.

I almost had sex with my boss and his wife.

And I have a little sister who is quite remarkable.

What?

You don't seem to care about that.

Or that I cry myself to sleep over Bo.

I do care, but where can I find the time?

And now Torsten wants to live in a commune.

- Oh my God. - Yeah, hooray.

His life gets easier and I get to travel further to the airport.

I feel lonely.

Two seconds.

It's Anne. It's about the seminar next week.

- Hi. - Hi.

You're late.

Is your son with you? Do you want to come in for tea?

No thanks. I wouldn't ask if I didn't need it...

- Need what? - 10,000 kroner.

You'll get it back. I'm four months behind with the rent.

Didn't you just move in?

There was a plumbing bill for the bathroom.

- Isn't there a tenancy agreement? - Yes, there is.

I don't like it here and I want to move back to Silkeborg.

What's this all about? Are you in danger?

- No. - Someone set fire to your buggy.

- What are you talking about? - Nothing. We're leaving now.

That's why I want to leave here.

Someone's been looking for me. Now he's found me again.

I need the money for a new apartment.

I have no one else to ask.

Of course I'll help you. Come to my office tomorrow

-so we can sort this out.

Thanks.

- Do you want me to drive you home? - No, it's fine.

Drive carefully.

- I'm leaving now, Mum. - See you.

Tell me. He follows you and threatens you?

He was watching me and sending texts with comments about my clothes.

One time he sent a funeral wreath with my name on it.

- Do you have 10,000 kroner? - Yeah, the thing is...

- I can't lend you money to run away. - What?

- That's what I need. - Hi, Nina.

This is Maj.

- Are you sure someone is following you? - Yes.

- Do you know who he is? - No.

- He set fire to her buggy. - Have you reported it?

- I didn't find a report. - Are you a cop?

- I don't like this. - Wait.

Nina's a detective.

She'll just say that I should call the police when I feel threatened.

I've tried it a thousand times. There's absolutely no point.

So that was my sister.

You said she studied in Silkeborg. That's not true.

She has never received a student grant or been enrolled there.

And this thing with the buggy... Was she nearby when it went on fire?

She was standing next to it.

A fire was reported at her last address.

- Do you mean she's a pyromaniac? - I don't know.

- Do you trust her? - Well...

I don't know, but she seems to be afraid.

Our father says she's a bit strange.

- Call me if something happens. - Thanks.

Hi. Is everything okay?

Yeah...

We haven't talked about what happened at my house.

- You disappeared so quickly. - Yes, it was just that I...

I got a fit of self-pity.

But wasn't it fun?

Where have you been?

I was talking to a girl.

She's having trouble with a guy who's stalking her.

You were supposed to go with Claus.

He went with Jonas. I thought this thing with the girl...

You shouldn't think. I do the thinking.

In future, do exactly as I say.

You're not really on top of things?

Some of us here want to take care of you.

- Dicte, shouldn't you be having lunch? - Yes.

August, did you find out anything about Maj?

- How much do you know about her? - Not much. Why?

Hector's father lives in Greece.

And Maj has had five different addresses in three years.

- She's hard to find online. - She's trying to avoid the stalker.

- What does she work as? - Maybe we can take this somewhere else?

No, just tell me.

Is that what you want to see? Is that what you like?

- Do you want to see my breasts? - You can see that you're sisters.

Anybody who sees this could be the stalker.

- Look what Daddy has for you. - We're going to eat soon.

Only give them a little bit.

- Did you not buy fillet? - No, beef stroganoff.

Stroganoff has to simmer for two hours. The children go to sleep at eight o'clock.

Why do I always have to be the responsible one?

Why aren't you responsible?

- It's 2 am. - It's nearly over.

They need to show some respect. That's e-fucking-nough.

I'll tell them to turn it off.

- Are you going to spoil the party? - Take it easy.

Go in to your girlfriend!

Stop it now!

What are you doing, Mikkel?

What's happening?

Hello and welcome.

Want to have some fun? Write what you want to see.

I've been very disobedient and haven't done my homework.

Why did you not do it?

I would never judge you.

One of the men might be in love with you.

- No. - It's someone who knows you well.

Do you have regular customers?

It doesn't matter who it is. I just want out of here.

Why don't you stay living here?

Don't let that idiot ruin your life.

- We'll find him. - And then what? Batter him?

Yes. I mean it.

I just want the money.

Okay. Here's half. 5000.

- But tell me who you think it is. - Thanks.

He calls himself Nicci78. I only know that he's in love with me.

- Do you know that it's him? - See you.

I've found Maj's stalker.

His name is Nicolas Kratzner and he lives here outside Aarhus.

- Then we just need to denounce him. - Or else we'll go there.

- That's not my department. - He's been at it for two years.

He just sits and stares at porn. He may keep on stalking.

Just show him your badge so he might leave Maj alone.

If we do this, it's me who decides. Okay?

Yes, that's fine.

Nicolas is not at home. But he'll be back soon.

- Then we'll wait. - I want to see his room.

He has his own space and doesn't like anyone to go in there.

Your son uses the internet an awful lot. Do you know that?

- Don't all young people? - Yes, but for different purposes.

- Nicolas is a good boy. - What did you say? He's a good boy?

Stalking a young woman and ruining her life.

- We don't know for sure. - He set fire to her buggy.

- I want to see the room. - That can't be right. Wait.

- Is this the door? - Yes.

There he is.

Your sister is lying to you.

She just doesn't know who the real stalker is.

It's clear she does when he's kept at it for two years.

They're asleep now.

Anne, I've bought a share in a commune.

- What have you done? - I've bought shares.

The boys and I are moving there. I hope you'll come with us.

What the hell are you saying?

Our life doesn't work and you're falling apart.

Now I'm taking responsibility for the family.

You can't buy a new home without asking me.

I can, because you can neither prioritise nor choose.

If we keep going like this we'll end up divorced.

That's just the way it is.

Should you decide where we live when you're never home?

The boys will be happier there, with a lot of playmates, green spaces-

- and communal meals. Great people.

I have clients in the basement. And it's a minute away from kindergarten.

What about me? Do you want to force me to resign?

Just the opposite. I'll take the kids so you can work the way you want.

Who the hell says it's what I want?

Don't do it then.

It's only because you can't stand that I earn more than you.

Hi.

- Alex? - Hi Mum.

Tonni? What are you doing here?

I've received complaints about you.

Mrs. Kratzner called and said you bothered her son.

I was sure that it was he who stalked the young girl.

You went there even though I told you not to.

Why did you come here to talk about work?

Louise Holm has asked me to make an assessment of you.

I was a little worried about you.

I thought we could talk. Won't you sit down?

Before I start writing the evaluation and use words such as-

- mistrust, instability and cooperation problems...

I want to give you a chance.

I think we need to get to know each other better.

I think we can help each other.

Hi. I'll cook dinner. Are you leaving, Tonni?

Yes.

- We'll continue tomorrow. - Sure.

- Will you put the rice on? - Yes.

You know who the stalker is. But you don't want to say.

- Or you're simply lying. - Exactly.

But I actually believe that someone is out to get you.

I should never have said anything. Stop interfering.

- I want to help you. - You can't, and neither can the police.

- Just forget it. - Why can't I help you?

I've always done fine by myself. I don't need my pretend sister's help.

I don't care. Bye.

Hi, Nina. I know it's annoying-

- but I want you to do me one last favour.

Hello? Are you there?

Maj has reported the stalker in the other cities she lived in.

Sønderborg and Næstved. Can you find the reports?

- Sure. - Are you all right, Nina?

- Yes. See you. - Bye.

- Mum? - I'm coming now.

- Aren't you going home? - Yes.

See you.

Are you going there on your own? I don't have the calculations.

Do it and call me later.

Can I get a drink?

What did you say to Mikkel yesterday?

That I didn't want to listen to his bullshit about becoming a father.

You must have said something else, because now he doesn't want to talk to me.

I only asked him if he was sure he was the father.

- What did you do? - You were seeing other people at the time.

- Did you tell him we were together? - Yeah. Take it easy.

I just wanted to bring him down to earth a little.

- Do you even remember that night? - Yes.

We sat on the roof and drank red wine and crayfish I stole.

It finished with you dancing. You were so beautiful.

And we didn't have a condom. Do you remember that bit?

- You'd rather die than become a father. - You have Mikkel.

Det får vi fan hoppas.

I'm only doing it because I feel sorry for her

She said she doesn't give a damn that I want to help her.

Can you understand why I keep doing it anyway?

That's your personality. You're the nicest person I know.

And the cutest and sexiest.

Shit!

- Really nice picture. - It's Bo's.

- Is it for the show? - What?

The exhibition, he was planning.

Have you talked to him? Is he home?

Yes. Didn't you know that?

Sorry. I thought you were over him.

I am.

I had just thought that he'd call me.

My wife will also be home in three weeks.

I have enough...

- Steffen? - Did I forget something?

No, dammit.

You said I never came and partied.

- It's eight o'clock in the morning. - I think we're getting divorced.

Why do you say that?

Torsten has bought a stake in the commune without asking me.

He wants to move to the country with the boys.

- What? - Yes.

If he really means it then I'll apply for custody.

- No. - They're not his children.

- What did you say? - Dad's an unknown donor.

Have you gone completely mad?

Torsten has been there for the kids 100 times more than you.

- What? - Because you're never there.

Take your self-centered whining somewhere else.

I don't think I like you any more.

- Oops. - Yes.

You need to talk to me, Mikkel. Don't just disappear like this.

- Why didn't you say anything about Baldur? - It was only once.

- Once... - Listen to me.

I was scared shitless, but I'm completely into becoming a father.

- But the child might not be mine. - We need to talk about it.

We need to wait until we know who's the father of the child.

Stop, Mikkel.

- You're home. - Yes.

Were you in Sweden chopping down trees?

And now you have an exhibition and you've become an artist.

I'm having an exhibition in any case.

- I'll get my things someday. - There's not much left.

Do you still have the big picture with the port?

Yes.

- I'll get going. - Yes.

What have you got?

Just over a year ago Maj reported her ex Kenneth Egholm for rape.

But a few days later, she withdrew the report.

- She never mentioned him. - He may be the stalker.

It's often the ex-boyfriend. It's worth checking out.

Shall we go out again?

I can't go along this time.

I have to keep a low profile.

Kenneth Egholm works in construction down by the harbour. You can go there.

Kenneth's in there on the third floor.

- Is any of you called Kenneth? - Me.

Dicte Svendsen. Journalist at Dagbladet.

- Do you have two minutes? - What is it about?

- Your ex, Maj Nygård Madsen. - That'll take more than two minutes.

Let's go somewhere else.

I'm writing an article about stalking.

You certainly found it difficult to let Maj go.

Did she say that? It's not true.

It's the other way around. She stalked me.

I've moved around the country, but she keeps following me.

She keeps texting all the time and bothering me if I'm with someone.

She made it all up? Her rape complaint then?

It was the day after I broke up with her.

The police in Sønderborg rang, but she withdrew the complaint.

- Where were you on Wednesday night? - Here at work. Why?

You didn't set fire to the buggy?

No.

Oh my God.

This is insane.

She needs help. She has a young son.

- Kenneth! - I'm coming.

I hope you got what you wanted to know. Otherwise, call me.

- Thanks for today. See you tomorrow. - Good night.

- See you. - Bye.

- We have zero tolerance for alcohol. - It's after hours.

Cheers.

You're very tense.

Relax.

I'm going home now.

- And I'll write the evaluation. - Write whatever the hell you want.

That's what I thought.

- Hi. - Hi, Dicte. How are things?

I just came to say I was wrong.

You were right about Maj

She just makes up everything.

- She seems crazy. - That's what I said.

I wish I could be more like you.

This, being sisters and family...

It was something I wanted, and you didn't.

But that's okay.

But I think you need help, Maj.

I think you should talk to a psychologist. I'll pay.

I know I was awful, but I'm not crazy.

I'm not saying that. But you have to think of Hector.

I've talked to our father and Kenneth.

- And I get it... - Have you talked to Kenneth?

- Yes. - How do you know him?

- When did you talk to him? - Yesterday.

Now he's going to punish us. We need to get to the kindergarten before he does something to Hector.

Hector! Hector!

- Where's Hector? - Is he not in the playroom?

- Where's Hector? - Outside.

It's your fault if something's happened to him.

Hector!

He's there.

He's there.

Good. Undress yourself then you should take a bath.

This won't do. You need to get help.

- You're imagining things. - I'm not.

- Kenneth wants to harm Hector. - He wasn't there.

He's a psychopath, Dicte.

You have to believe me. He threatens me every day.

He raped me when I broke up with him.

- Mum! - I'm coming.

You'll die.

Sorry, honey. Come here.
