Dinner's ready, Frank.

How was it?

"If you have a pulse and two legs, then we're well on our way".

Spit out.

Good boy.

Think it's time for bed.

Good night.

-Hey!

I'm awake.

"-Hey, thought you superliked me by" accident!

"-No, it was a genuine superlike."

What are we doing today?

"I'm flattered."

"Are you doing anything tomorrow?"

How do I look?

Was thinking the same, but it'll do.

I'll be gone for a bit.

Bye.

-Hey! -Hey!

Sorry I'm late. -Don't worry about it.

You look nice. -Thank you, so do you.

Thanks.

I'll go get us two beers.

-Here you go!

Again, I'm really sorry for being late.

I don't have an excuse, I'm just really bad at time management.

Don't think about it.

You're here now, and that's all that matters.

Good point, cheers for that!

Is it anything important? -Not really.

Just a bad habit. -That's fine.

I was surprised that you asked me on a date this fast.

Oh?

Well, you seemed nice. I thought why not?

Besides, the whole point of Tinder is meeting up.

Good point. -And the less we talk online...

...the more we'll have to talk about here.

Also a good point.

So what do you do?

-I'm taking a one year study in psychology.

Why only one year?

I didn't have good enough grades to take a bachelor.

Oh.

Are you enjoying your studies? -Yes, or...

I like the environment, not really sure about the program in itself.

Are you considering doing something else?

We'll see, I'll take it as it comes.

What about you? -I don't study.

What do you do, then?

Good question.

Do you work? -I'm not really doing anything right now.

I take it as it comes.

-Look how cute!

What are you doing? -I'm counting calories.

Are you a control freak?

No, I wouldn't really say that, but...

Since I have so little going on,

I like to keep myself active and have a structure.

-That's very impressive. I'm busy with both work and studies...

...so I'd love to have structure in my life.

You work? -But just as a cashier.

-Work is work.

-It's not exactly the hardest job in the world.

-I could never do that. -That's just something you're saying.

No, I mean it, I'm way too antisocial.

-You don't seem antisocial to me.

Perhaps not.

Perhaps not when I'm just with one person.

But I do have issues socializing with groups.

I'm generally not good with people.

You, however, seem very social. You seem very welcoming and nice.

Thank you.

Do you wanna come home with me?

Do you live here?

What do you think? -It's fine, reminds me of my dorm.

Just kidding. -Take a seat if you want.

Do you want a glass of wine? -Yes, please.

Do you live here alone? -Yes.

Do you have all of this for yourself? -I do.

-Doesn't it get lonely? I could never have all this space alone.

I'm a little claustrophobic, so I like having the space.

I also have a dog. -I love dogs, what species?

That's a little hard to explain.

Hard to explain? Is it a mixed breed?

It's just a little hard to explain.

I don't really understand, but that's fine.

You can meet him one day if you want.

Did you inherit this place? -Yes, from my parents.

Where are they now?

They're dead.

I'm sorry, my condolences. -It's fine, don't think about it.

It happened a long time ago, I'm okay.

My parents divorced when I was very young.

So I didn't really have a close relationship to them either.

Sorry, I didn't mean to-

There you are! Hungry?

-Aren't going to eat?

I'm not that hungry.

Hey...

...what's up with him? -What do you mean?

Who is it? You said you lived alone.

Oh, that's Frank, my dog.

I think I need to leave.

What? Wait.

Please wait. -I'm sorry, I forgot I had plans.

Wait!

I had a nice time yesterday and I don't want this to ruin things...

Even though I understand if it does. -Why didn't you say anything?

I tried to explain, I said I had a dog- -You said you had a dog...

...not a guy in a dog costume!

If you'd let me explain, I think you'd understand.

I don't want to hear that explanation.

Could you give me a ride?

We're here. -Yep.

-If you want to meet again, please send me a message.

Thanks for the ride.

-Walk of shame?

-He drove me home, actually.

-What a gentleman. Come tell me about the date!

What is it?

Did it go that badly?

The date went very well, actually. -Oh?

He's handsome...

...nice, a little shy, but in a charming way.

But there always has to be something. -Like what?

He lives with a guy who constantly acts like a dog.

What? -That's what I was thinking!

Is it a fetish thing? -No, I don't think so.

Never heard of anything like that.

But besides that, the date went well? -Mhm.

Can I see a picture of him? -Sure.

Ha. Ha. -What?

You have not been on a date with Christian Iversen.

Do you know him? -I wish!

-Then how do you know who he is? -He's Tor Iversen's son.

He's a multimillionaire, at least he used to be before he died.

You have been on a date with a multimillionaire!

-My name is Jens Christian Ebeltoft. -And my name is Johanne Binder...

...and we're going to talk about puppy play.

-Puppy play is when a person...

...takes the personality and behavior of a dog.

Puppy play is often split into two roles:

The owner, who takes the dominant role...

...and the dog, who takes the submissive role.

It's a little freaky. -Mhm.

But who are we to judge?

People should be able to do whatever they want,

as long as nobody's getting hurt.

-That's true.

Well? Have you talked to him?

Who said I'm talking to him?

What's wrong with you? He's a millionaire and handsome...

...and you're going to let a small thing stop you from meeting him?

Just because he has a friend with a little unusual hobby?

That's so narrow-minded.

Besides, why do you have such high standards?

It's not like you're the most-

I didn't say I wasn't going to meet him again.

Just let me go at my own pace, okay? -Fine.

Do whatever you want, just trying to help.

I'm going to bed. Don't stay up too late, we're getting up early tomorrow.

Whatever, mom.

And I'm not going to wake you up if you oversleep.

That won't be necessary.

Goodnight, darling. -Goodnight, sweetheart.

Hello? -Hey, how are you?

I'm fine, and you? -I'm doing good.

-Is it OK that I'm calling? -Absolutely.

-That's a relief, I was a little unsure if I should call you or not...

...but I think things ended a little badly this morning.

I'm sorry, it was my fault.

I shouldn't have left like that.

-No it's my fault,

I should have explained things before I invited you home.

-It's not odd that you got a little scared.

-It's fine.

-Can I make up for it with dinner at my place tomorrow?

-How does that sound?

"Coffee is ready"

You've been on the same page for five minutes.

Tell me if it works.

-Is it Christian? -Maybe...

Will it be a second date?

We're having dinner at his place today. -Aw, how cute.

You know what?

You can live on his inheritance and become a housewife if you marry.

-Then you won't have to study! I think it'd suit you.

Hey. -Hey.

-What do you think? -Very delicious.

I'm happy you said yes to this. -I'm happy you asked.

-There's not a lot of people who wants to go out with me after they find out...

...you know.

Not to sound rude, but what's his deal?

We don't have to talk about it. -No, it's fine.

Simply put; he's a dog.

All the time? -All the time.

Never heard of anything like it. -I guess it's not that normal.

-So he lives here and acts like a dog all the time?

He doesn't act like a dog, he is a dog.

I know it's strange, but it's what he wants.

Since he has no one else, I have to be his owner.

Isn't that weird? -What is weird?

There's a lot of things that was weird before that's normal now.

That's a good point.

Just look at how gay people were treated a couple of decades ago.

Exactly, just look at how they're treated now.

It's still illegal in 69 countries. -Seriously?

This world is an awful place.

I wouldn't go THAT far.

So this is completely normal for you?

You get used to it.

Or...

I try to get used to it.

Could I meet Frank? -Of course?

-Right now? -Sure, if you want to.

But it's very important that you treat him like a dog.

Do not treat him like a human, OK?

OK. -Good.

You can come out, Frank!

-Say hi!

Hey.

-I think he likes you.

Hey, you.

-Hey, you!

Get off her! Go to bed!

I'm so sorry.

I can drive you home if you want.

No, it's fine.

I want to stay.

-When did you and Frank meet? -We met as kids.

He was a loner, didn't have many friends.

We were pretty similar in that regard.

Technically I had a lot of friends...

...but that's just because I had the newest games

and would give them candy.

The day that ended...

Frank was the only one who liked me for who I was.

Kids can be cruel. -What about you?

I got along with most kids, but...

...I didn't really have any close relationships.

Maybe we're a little similar, in that regard.

-Good morning. -Good morning.

-Here you go.

Thank you so much.

Crispy bacon.

Coffee.

Exactly how I like it.

How did you know? -Just had a feeling.

-There was someone who wanted to apologize for yesterday.

He feels very bad, isn't that right, Frank?

Can you forgive him? -Of course I can forgive you!

That's a relief! Go on now, Frank!

He did actually feel bad. -Oh?

Did he tell you that? -In his own way.

What's the time? -10:30 I think.

Fuck. -What?

I'm supposed to be at school in 15 minutes.

-No, really?

-I'll drive you. -I can't concentrate anyways.

Come on, we'll make it.

Come on.

Have a fun day at school. -Thank you.

Thanks for the ride. -Hitchcock and bolognese tonight?

Sure.

Bye.

Hey. -Hey.

Do you want to go out with the class tonight?

-Sorry I can't, I have plans with Christian.

Damn, you're pretty much in a relationship, congrats!

-Thank you.

-But don't make it too easy for him. You have to be more hard to get.

Oh?

-People like him are used to getting what they want.

He's going to get bored if you make it too easy.

You have to keep him on his toes, OK?

How long have you been collecting these?

These are my mom's, she's decorated the whole house, actually.

I haven't touched anything since she died. -What was her profession?

She was an artist, she's taken all the pictures that are in this house.

I'm starting to get a little tired. -Me too, should we go to bed?

Could you drive me home? -Sure, but you can sleep here if you want.

I have to get up early, so it's best if I sleep at home.

Fine.

Fuck. -What is it?

-Aurora is going to be so disappointed.

I promised I was going to play hard to get.

What can I say? I have my charm.

Besides, playing hard to get won't work with me.

What is it? You're thinking about something.

It's nothing. -Tell me.

Fine.

Does Frank have sex?

I shouldn't have asked. -It's fine.

Just a little surprised.

He doesn't have sex unless he's doing it behind my back.

-Behind your back?

He never goes out and nobody visits him...

...so I assume that he doesn't have sex. -Do you think he wants to?

He haven't told me at least.

Are you volunteering? -Yes.

If you don't mind.

I don't mind.

Frank is a person who's gone through a lot.

Nobody's been there for him.

Except you. -Except me.

-I don't understand the logic behind being a dog...

...but I don't think that's important.

The important thing is being there for him.

-That's true.

What? -Nothing.

I said what I was thinking about. -It's really nothing.

Come on. -It's too early.

Now you have to tell me.

Do you want to go on a cabin trip? Me, you and Frank?

Sigrid, you were supposed to play hard to get.

Isn't this a little early? -What's the worst that could happen?

-Is the dog going to be there? -Frank is coming along, yes.

Isn't that a little weird if he's going to be the third wheel?

You wouldn't consider a dog as "third wheel".

-This is not your usual dog, though.

I think this is a little iffy, but whatever makes you happy.

Have a safe trip, darling. -Thanks, sweetheart.

Hey!

Just take a look, I'll bring in the groceries.

-OK.

The materials come from an old church built in the 1600s.

So this place is holy?

Yes, so be careful what you do, because God is looking over this place.

Where are the bedrooms? -About that...

We only have one bedroom, so Frank will have to sleep with us.

Are you OK with that?

Of course.

I'm just joking!

Pack out your stuff and I'll make dinner.

Do you like it? -Very much.

But...

...maybe not as much as Frank.

I forgot to feed him before we left, so I'm sure he's very hungry.

Anything important?

Not really.

I've been thinking. -Oh?

Give me a moment.

I was thinking we could be phone free during this trip.

Isn't it a good idea? You're always on your phone.

I'm not always on my phone. -Of course not, but...

...but you can go one weekend without your phone.

Think how much nicer it will be,

we don't need a phone when we got each other.

OK, look...

Fine.

Yes!

Where are you putting it? -You don't need to know!

I see you have become good friends.

We are best friends! Isn't that right, Frank?

Who's this? -It's me and my dad.

My mom made them.

She was very talented.

-I think we have played enough now.

Sit!

Good dog!

What do you want to do now?

First you need to get us some more wine.

I like where your head's at. I love you.

We need to get out of here! Help me, he's fucking insane!

Refills!

-For us!

Sigrid? -Hey, sorry.

Did something happen? -No, no...

...I think I need to got to bed. -Are you OK?

-I'm just tired. -We have the whole weekend ahead of us.

Let's go to bed.

Come, Frank!

-Can't sleep? -Fuck!

Didn't mean to scare you. -It's fine.

What are you doing?

I was just going to... -...get some fresh air?

Yes! The door was locked so I was looking for a key.

I always lock the door, in case someone tries to break in...

...or out.

-Let's go get some fresh air.

Do you like it? -Mhm.

Could I get my own key?

Then I won't have to wake you. -I'm sorry, I only have one key.

But just wake me up whenever.

You want to got to bed? -Just give me a moment.

Don't you like the food? -I'm not hungry.

-Could've told me before, now I have to throw it all.

I'm sorry. -Don't think about it.

Frank can eat the leftovers for lunch.

Hey, you? -Yeah?

-Could I get my phone back? -Why?

In case I got an important text. -Like what?

I don't know.

-My mother's feeling ill.

I would like to check up on her.

What's wrong with her? -We don't know yet.

-But she's not well. -Of course, I'll go get it.

I checked your phone, no new messages...

-...only a few snaps but guessing they're not that important.

-Just unlock it.

-Hello? -Hey, how's it going?

It's me, Sigrid. -Oh, I'm fine!

-And you? -I'm doing fine.

-Was it something important? I'm busy.

-It's fine, just wanted to check up on you.

Oh, how nice! Bye!

Bye.

I just thought that- -Listen, I know what's going on.

You're addicted.

You can't go a day without your phone.

The phone can wait until after the trip.

Fine.

You can go a weekend without the phone. For me?

Sure. -Good to hear.

Any plans for today?

I was thinking...

...maybe me and Frank could go for a walk.

Oh? -Now right after breakfast.

Then me and Frank could get to know each other more.

-And you can plan something meanwhile.

Surprise me.

It's not a bad idea.

Do you want me to take off the collar?

You can walk normally. -Quiet!

You're talking too loud! -It's just us.

You don't know that, he's probably spying on us.

Act like you're petting me.

Have you found a way for us to escape? -We could run, now.

I'd rather get killed than get caught escaping from him.

There's no point in running, he's prepared for that.

-We should attack him while he sleeps.

Do you want to kill him? -Yes, you have to.

I can't do that.

Fine, just be careful.

There are you guys!

Did you have fun? -Yes, we did.

Has he been to the toilet? -No.

-I can take him out.

Wonder what the surprise is? -Surprise?

You said I was going to surprise you. -What is it?

You'll have to wait.

It comes when you least expect it. -I can't wait.

I'll start making dinner afterwards, if that's fine with you.

Sure, I'll just shower in the meantime. -Sounds good.

Thought you were in the shower. -I'm heading in now.

What are you doing? Aren't you making dinner?

It's just simmering, so I thought I could change sheets in the meantime.

I got nothing better to do. -Is that necessary?

Isn't it nice sleeping in new sheets two days in a row?

Do you know what?

I can do it. -Don't be silly, I'll do it.

Go and shower and then I'll- -Christian, you made dinner yesterday...

...you're making dinner today, I think it's time that I contribute, too.

Don't you agree?

Fine.

There better not be any wrinkles!

Hello? -Can we talk?

What is it? -Just come to the bedroom.

Hey. -Hey.

What did you want to talk about? -You know.

I'll give you a hint: it has to do with the bed.

-I...

...I don't know... -You do!

I'll give you another chance: what's special about the bed?

The bed stretch is way too loose!

I'll do it next time, because this is not good enough!

I'm joking.

Dinner's ready in 15 minutes.

What is it?

Shouldn't you look after the dinner? -It's just simmering.

Gets better the more you wait.

I just showered. -You smell so good.

Christian...

Christian.

Stop, Christian!

Dinner in 15.

The wine's good.

Thanks.

Where's Frank? -He's sleeping.

Are you OK? -I'm fine.

Just a little tired.

Do you need help? -No, it's fine.

I got you.

Come with me. I want to show you something.

Sit.

Do you know why I took you down here?

No. -No?

Want to guess?

I don't know. -You're so boring.

-"There's no point in running, he's prepared for that".

-"We should attack him, while he sleeps".

And another thing.

I'm incredibly disappointed.

Get up, come here.

-I could've tied you up, but decided not to.

So you could show me you're trustworthy.

-Even though you don't deserve it.

Come on, let's go.

-I didn't even need to record your conversation...

...Frank confessed immediately afterwards.

And I'm very thankful for that!

But you thought about betraying me and that needs consequences.

But now you've learned your lesson, right?

But you haven't been punished yet.

Hey, you!

You don't have to be scared, it's only me!

You want me to take this off?

Wasn't that better?

Good doggy!

Help!

Stop!

Calm down, Frank!

Calm down!

Promise you won't do anything if I let go?

-FUCK!

What the fuck have you done?

I'm sorry I- -What did you say?

-Did you just answer me?

Let's take a trip to the barn.

No, please don't!

-NO!

HELP!

Are you trying to cross me? You worthless piece of shit.

Bark for me!

Bark I said!

Did I tell you stop?

Get up, Frank!

-Get up! Come on, Frank!

Good morning, Frank.

-Wait.

Go ahead.

-Sigrid?

Go ahead!

You can sleep in the house tomorrow, if you're a good girl.

How does that sound?

Enjoy your breakfast!

-Time for breakfast.
