MR. STElN
THE LAST DEFENSES IN STALlNGRAD FALL
- What have you got? - A small selection, but exquisite.
- lt's Tuesday. - Give me two helpings.
Two veggies.
I can recommend the establishment's coffee and sponge cake.
Brown water and sliced concrete, twice.
Give me a drink to warm me up. You look as if you need one, too.
Sit down, Quick.
- No, l won't. - Go on, l'll wait here.
I'm happy with Ramona. lt tastes almost like butter.
l can't eat Ramona, you know that.
Then can't you ..?
As a retired council official, I can't do that sort of thing.
Yes, Frederik.
Ask him if he's got sugar stamps.
- What's the matter? - It's celeriac.
A vegetarian day, we all have to make sacrifices.
What a dirty trick.
How can I be of service, Miss Møhge?
Do you wish to partake of our vegetarian dinner?
No, thank you.
Is it possible to buy a butter stamp?
And perhaps a sugar stamp?
- How much? - Seven kroner.
- I can't eat this. - Celeriac steaks.
A great delicacy, straight out of ''Good Housekeeping''.
- Do you think the dog will have it? - Quick wouldn't touch it.
I understand that on the Eastern Front they eat dogs.
Next they'll start eating waiters.
We'll go home to Mother and have dinner.
Shall we take him along, Quick?
We can't have you waste away to nothing.
- Do you recognize it? - Isn't it your father's car rug?
- You said I could borrow it. - You were cold.
Anker at the factory, he made this for me. You don't mind?
- Where did you get the idea? - Daniel saw me wrapped in it.
Oh, it was Daniel ... Walk over there and turn around.
- Let me see the hat. - lt is a good idea.
The Baroness would like one.
- And Daniel designed it? - Don't take it out on Daniel.
- l'd better talk to Anker. - He'd do anything for Ellen.
He thought it was a good idea.
A blind hen pecks some corn. Daniel, that is.
We've got some rugs in stock. I'll ring to the factory.
- l'll see you get one. - No, thanks ... Well, a plain one.
- Did you take the real tea? - No.
You did put in a 30-watt bulb in your bedside lamp.
I've put a 15-watt bulb in again. We all have to economize.
If you've finished, you can go to bed.
Leave that book. We're not wasting electricity reading that rubbish.
Are you not frightened about having Ulrik in Copenhagen?
- So many nasty things happen. - He has to study.
All the fights and sabotage. So many horrid things happen.
And what about Regitze?
We don't want her in Copenhagen, but the Swiss schools are closed.
All this misfortune with the war. I was saying to the Consul ...
It's getting late. How long will they be?
- You again, Mr. Andersen. - You revoked.
I didn't revoke at all. I can't see the cards in this light.
lt's all because of the war.
Aren't you finished soon? It's gone 1 1. Mrs. Holm's tired.
We've nearly finished.
- What about Regitze then? - A domestic science school.
Send her to Miss Østengram's.
All the best families send their daughters there.
- Yes, but Regitze refuses to go. - Refuses?
Hear that, Mrs. Holm, Regitze won't go to domestic science school.
You bid only two and you got a little slam.
I opened with two spades. You should have kept the bidding open.
It doesn't matter about your hand, that's how you play bridge.
I've been playing whist since you were in the cradle.
Any fool can play whist.
You can't play bridge unless you understand the rules.
Perhaps Frederik has his own system.
You can say that again.
Oda, get down.
- They're here. - Hans Christian, the children.
Frederik, where are you?
Come on out, dear. It's not here.
The house is still standing. I'll get you a cognac.
- Those damn saboteurs! - Yes, they're unreasonable.
It's all right. Nothing happened.
- The poor little lamb. - She was sitting up in bed.
- lt's the garage that's gone. - And all the windows to the garden.
May l have something for Miss Hollenberg?
She's sitting in the shelter screaming.
- Go to her. - No, she's stark naked.
It's a good thing Ulrik isn't home.
There's the key.
Yes, it's me.
I heard a bang. How many? I'll come right away.
- The hospital? - There are three injured.
- Who? - Germans.
- That had to be taken into account. - Yes.
- I've made some sandwiches. - I don't know. Do we want tea?
Why not? Some of us feel the need for something or other.
- There's someone on the stairs. - But the gate's locked.
It's the Germans.
- What a fright. - Some people are so thoughtless.
- Knudsen's here with the glass. - Show him the windows.
Frederiksen and Mrs. Hansen came over to sweep up the glass.
- And the neighbors? - It's just as bad there.
The Germans lost a whole fleet of vehicles.
They came through our garden.
Hans Christian, the Consul and Jørgen sat at the station till nine.
- Misse's awful Mr. Andersen, too. - Misse's quarrelsome knight.
I don't know how many glasses of brandy he had.
It was our last bottle. They carried him to the station.
- I wish l'd seen it. - He drank from a cup!
Then the sickly stench of all those uniforms in the house.
- Germans have special mothballs. - I'd rather have the moths.
Now we'll have them in the garden ... the Germans.
They demanded that there be a guard on our side of the wall.
- I suppose that's the only way. - But how did they open the gate?
- The ones that did it. - That's quite a mystery.
- How many panes broke in here? - Two in the bedroom.
- You need another. - What is it?
- It's something Jenny makes. - The driving instructor's wife?
- What's it made from? - Surgical spirits.
- How does she get surgical spirit? - We know two guys at the hospital.
They were with us last night.
- Doesn't Kristen mind about that? - Kristen?
He does his own thing, with his violin case.
- It's not like that in a marriage. - lsn't it?
And why are you doing it?
20 years old and your whole life in front of you.
- Why did you get married? - Because ...
I was bored, I guess. You get easily that in Korsbæk.
Not all marriages are like that. There's never been so many babies.
People delude themselves.
Babies are just another part of the lie about marital bliss.
- lt's a shame for Uncle Kristen. - It'd be worse if we had children.
- I want no more responsibilities. - Responsibilities?
There are enough bars on this cage.
Mogens and l will probably have it easier. We'll have a big house.
You're supposed to be smart ...
- So has my daughter come home? - Damn, it's Mother!
What a terrible night we had. We thought you'd been blown up.
- I was at a party in Copenhagen. - And Kristen?
He arrived after it happened, but what's that got to do with you?
Do you shout at your mother?
She will when she gets married and her mother keeps interfering.
- A husband has to assert himself. - l have a say in matters, too.
- You get on with having children. - She's off! Show Mom your new coat.
- What about the damaged building? - Dad will still get the rent.
They'll repair the building. Where can l get one of those?
- At the factory, for two sheets. - l want two of yours.
- You got 24 when you were married. - They look terrible.
- The laundry doesn't do them right. - They were top quality.
l hope Ellen has learned to look after things out at Brydesø.
Stop nattering and taste this.
Just like the real thing.
Viggo tried to get surgical spirit prescribed for his rheumatism.
- Dad doesn't have rheumatism. - No, but Dr. Hansen ...
- He's all right. - He scrawled out a prescription.
They gave me a tin of ointment that's good for rheumatism.
You can give Dad that bottle if l get my two sheets.
Life's become a struggle, as Viggo says.
- What about your wedding? - My father's been storing up.
They hardly drink at all.
What about your father-in-law? They say he has good connections.
My father's managing the wedding himself.
- The paper's arrived. - Never mind that. Look at Quick.
He's also learned the trick.
See, Quick, it's German.
No, it's Danish, old pal. Take it. Did you see that?
There's a car with two Germans in it out in the yard.
- What do you want? - Have you any pigs?
l don't understand.
Pigs.
Pigs? No, it's not allowed.
- Can he use the toilet? - Yes, sure.
- What did they want? - To buy pigs.
- I said it wasn't allowed. - Why haven't they left?
One of them had to use the privy.
Skjern's Store. One moment, l'll try.
Hello? Yes, he's here. It's for you, Kristen.
Katrine.
When?
No, it's good you called.
Right away, yes.
- What is it? - The Germans have the pig dealer.
My father-in-law? Why? Where is he?
- At the police station. - Can l help?
Yes, l need a carriage.
- That's the last one. - There was a hen sitting on it.
- lt's awful about your husband. - His punishment for being stupid.
He said he'd burnt the picture. They also took Dean Mejer.
- When is he to appear in court? - Before the end of the week.
- They also took Dean Mejer. - The dean? What's he done?
No, not the dean, the picture. Dad always hung it in the privy.
It puts me in a pretty spot as chairman of the parish council.
You can't be responsible for my father.
The dean said he'd hoped to marry Ellen and Mogens.
At least we'll avoid that, and we can be sure he'll be annoyed.
Do you think the dean is the reason your mother rang Kirsten and not me?
I've been wondering what Kristen is involved in.
- That's nothing to do with you. - The bank has to be run.
- That could affect us. - Kristen knows what he's doing.
Do you think so?
- If you mean his marriage ... - Yes, l'm thinking of that.
- He's been incautious before. - We share some of the blame.
We do? He goes from one disaster to another.
- l almost feel sorry for lben. - She's only got herself to blame.
She's never lived up to what's expected of a wife.
You standardize wives just like you standardize clothing.
- Not all people are the same. - Then they shouldn't get married.
- He got 30 days. - He deserves it for such stupidity.
It's all right with the jailer, Larsen can have his dog there. What's that?
Pork, for the jailer.
At least you'll have some time to yourself now.
Time! l do nothing but send food and clean clothes to the jail.
- How is he, anyway? - They don't mention that.
- He's done both now. - Good.
Let's see what Mother's sent us.
There should be a bone for Quick.
There you are, Quick. l'm glad Lene is a good cook.
- Yes, but she's hopeless at cards. - Never mind.
That rascal in number six plays any game.
- The clientele is shrinking away. - So are the helpings.
You shouldn't complain. Think of the absentees.
Lauritz Jensen has the Germans after him.
And your friend is starving in jail.
You've played before. You'd think he had marked cards.
- He probably has. - You deal this time. Pay up.
Who taught you to deal? Be sure to mix them up well.
You thought the competition would be better.
And Katrine's made a cake. As l always say: Long live freedom.
- Who is it? - It's me.
The quartet's not playing tonight. Didn't Dr. Hansen tell you?
Yes, but the violin came anyway.
You can help me with this now you're here.
You can get most of them in your violin case.
I want a divorce.
The situation is unbearable.
What does your wife say?
I haven't told her, but l don't suppose she cares.
It's not me you should be talking to first.
lt was all a big misunderstanding from the start.
- Our relationship ... - We had our misunderstandings.
They were minor compared to this.
You don't know how it would have been if we'd married.
- We could talk about things. - It can't only be her fault.
- You must have known that. - Not that it would be such hell.
All the mess, the noise, all her stupid friends.
- And her parents. - You were warned about them.
- I must have been mad. - l don't think so.
You were desperate, and then men do rash things.
- What do women do? - They think things through.
- You didn't leave town. - No, maybe I should have.
Let's see how many you can get in your case.
- It's been ten years since we met. - Yes, what a silly business.
- Now we're ten years older. - What do you mean by that?
That you should have learned to think things through.
- You always think things through. - Yes, including marriage.
We're told that it's happiness ... and what is it for most people?
A JEWISH PlG WORKS HERE
Get that mess washed off immediately!
Get me the Chief of Police. I want to talk to him now!
Well, you'd better find him. Tell him to come over here.
He's about to find out. Sit down, Stein.
That out there, l'm sorry. It's because of me.
- It won't happen again. - You never know.
I won't have anybody slandering my employees.
I'll put a guard on the bank at night. This won't happen again.
My son-in-law works at David's, the stockbroker.
- They smashed the windows. - This can't continue.
If it does, at work or at home, you're to come directly to me.
- That's very kind of you. - You can find me here or at home.
- Can't that be done at the factory? - No, they only have machines.
- Look at this material. - It's put aside for his daughter.
- He's crazy about her. - I remember her as a girl.
- She'd ride in with the pig dealer. - They say he's been let out.
- In time for the wedding. - Yes, at the Post House.
- 62 people! - They've room enough at the house.
Yes, but because of the curfew, people have to stay the night.
Here's the monogram for the linen. Ellen Skjern Lamborg.
- Hello again. - The bird is out of the cage.
Good things don't last forever. What's up with you, Fatty?
- I've lost 5 pounds. - Have you missed me so much?
Marie's working nights. Hemstitching for your granddaughter.
- That's what the upperclass demand. - You'd know.
- You're of noble blood. Cheers. - Cheers and congratulations.
You've exchanged that stinking jail for this cosy place.
The prisoner in number 6 was an excellent card player.
He's coming here, when he gets out.
- What was he jailed for? - He was a specialist ...
In pub brawls with Germans and black marketeers.
You can get shirts at Skjern's this week.
Well, go on in then. I'm not setting foot in there.
Hurry now.
I'm afraid the shirts are not coming until next week.
- That's a pity. - We do have some coats.
- Are you interested? - I need one for the winter.
I think we have your size left. If you'll follow me ...
How could it take such a long time for a shirt?
- There are no shirts this week. - Then what were you doing?
- What's in there? - A coat, almost pure wool.
- Who for? - For me.
I've needed a new coat for years.
There's a perfect coat at home. It belonged to my late wife.
I know it's Sunday, but l thought ...
There's tea in the living room.
- Shall l take your coat? - No, l think I'd better ...
Misse! What a surprise.
It's been a while. lt's difficult finding time.
- You know what it's like. - Sit down. It's almost real tea.
Just one cup. lt wasn't for the tea ... lt's the coat.
- The coat? - It's out in the hall.
But now l can see it's too short for any of you.
- What coat is it? - One l bought.
It's lovely, almost pure wool. From the shop, over there.
- Can't you use it? - Frederik doesn't like that shop.
- Why not? - Frederik holds a grudge.
Mads Skjern had him dismissed from Mikkelsen's school.
Laura made some buns. There's only a little barley meal in them.
Never mind Mr. Andersen. You need to have clothes to wear.
- A good coat is hard to find. - Maybe it'll fit you.
I've just had two of my father's coats restyled by the tailor.
- Keep it yourself. - It's your own money.
There's Frederik's late wife's coat.
He'll sell it to me for 50 kroner.
- What did the new one cost? - 90.
Frederik says I can demand my money back.
But the assistant was so nice.
But l'll save 40 kroner, as Frederik says.
Does Mr. Andersen pay you for his cooking, cleaning and washing?
Pay? One can always give. We women must be helpful.
You must know that Miss Friis, from the time when you ...
- Sorry, I didn't mean it like that. - lt doesn't matter.
Frederik wants us to get married.
- So that's different. - How?
Though they say Kristen Skjern's wife neither cooks nor cleans.
What are you talking about?
What's the matter? Let's talk about something else.
You and Mr. Andersen, that's none of our business.
- I did so like that coat. - Well, then don't take it back.
Now l've got the other one that l bought from Frederik.
He's waiting for me downstairs.
Goodbye ... and l'm sorry.
At last. Take the tea up.
- You've already got one cup. - It's for Sigmund.
- Is he on guard duty in the garden? - Yes.
l'll take the tea up.
There she goes with her coat, and that awful man.
She should be enjoying herself.
Maybe she misses having a tyrant about the house.
The worst of it is that he eats even more than Aunt Møhge did.
Thank you, Laura. What is it?
I won't put up with it any longer ... Miss Hollenberg.
We all know she's a bit love sick at the moment.
- Not anymore. - Thank goodness.
No, it's the German from the back garden.
And if he's allowed in my kitchen I'm leaving.
We have to put up with Germans in the garden.
- But not in the kitchen. - He's sitting there now.
- How do we get rid of him? - By getting rid of Miss Hollenberg.
- She's been here too long. - We'd hoped to marry her off.
- You have to get rid of her. - The Germans may take offense.
Say you have to get by without a nurse because of the times.
But we can't ... get by.
You'll find out when you're rid of her.
We took her on because she's from a good family.
I can see you've already heard. I heard it at the club.
- Is it on the radio? - It isn't that important.
They know about Miss Hollenberg at the club?
The Germans have attacked the army. They say there are casualties.
- How can they do that? - They do what they want.
- Yes, but the government ... - We have no government.
- Good morning, Laura. - Good morning.
The whole street's full of flags for the wedding.
- Ulrik and Regitze are going. - Miss Hollenberg left at 8 o'clock.
I hope she's not so offended that she'll sic the Germans on us.
That's not why she was in such a hurry to leave.
I think it was because of that new cotton-coat.
She had it made across the street out of two sheets.
- Well, she could still say goodbye. - I've counted our sheets.
Two of the best ones are missing.
l'm catching the 9:20 to Copenhagen.
Laura tells me that Miss Hollenberg has stolen two sheets.
- For her and her German friends? - No, for a cotton-coat.
Let's report it. Where do you get sheets from these days?
By stealing them, apparently. Let her keep them.
- Stealing is still a crime. - Perhaps.
I'll count the silver before the new one comes.
That's not till Monday.
So Miss Hollenberg won't know we're replacing her.
- So l'll have to iron Regitze's dress. - Yes.
And brush my husband's tails, please, Ulrik's borrowing them.
- When are you coming home? - There's a dinner ... at three.
We all have to get home before curfew.
Hello there! The hairdresser's coming in half an hour.
For Ellen see page 250
Where's Ellen going? Oh, are we having breakfast there?
Yes, all the presents are in the dining room.
- Who are all the roses from? - Ulrik Varnæs.
- There was a book, too. - What's the lad been up to now?
Something's been underlined.
It's a poem by Johannes Jørgensen.
''Sadly l listen and gaze out of the window shut tight ...''
''T'was as if my dearest one died on this very night.''
Oh, dear ...
What's the point of making her miserable on her wedding day!
I don't know ...
She'll only get miserable if she isn't happy enough.
What do you mean? It's her wedding day!
Exactly. l think l'll go up and talk to her.
Gudrun called from the shop, the flags are up all over town.
l should think so too, Esther.
- Why are you ironing that? - Aren't you going to a wedding?
- I'd rather go in my petticoat. - Do, then.
- No, I'll scrounge one of Mom's. - What's that?
- Mom's too. - That's madam's best nightgown.
I'm wearing it tonight, we're sleeping at the Post House.
Did you think we'd be home before curfew?
- Ellen's dad rented all the rooms. - Very posh!
But you could wear your own nightgown.
Not if I'm sharing a room with girls from Copenhagen.
Your oatcakes aren't bad. You'll come and see Ellen get married, right?
I'm only going to see you and Ulrik.
There's a lady who wants to see you.
It's my neighbor.
I have to go. Excuse me. I'll use the back door.
He left without balancing the ledger!
''Official notice: Because of the Jews' anti-German agitation -
- and support of acts of terrorism and sabotage -
- which have exacerbated the situation in Denmark -
- they will be segregated from public life -
- to prevent them from poisoning the atmosphere further. ''
''To meet the wish of wide circles among the Danish population -
- interned Danish soldiers will be released within the next few days. ''
- Haven't you got any cigarettes? - No, where'd l get them from?
- Your father's tails fit you very well. - Come on, Ulrik.
- Where are you going in my dress? - To a wedding.
I spent half an hour getting her blue dress ready.
Thank God she's going to domestic science college.
If they can teach her to iron ... Can l bring Helle to church?
Why of course.
- What strange things they write. - Lies, most of them.
At least the King had a nice birthday.
Hurry up, Laura!
- Ellen! - Just a sec!
- Ulrik ... - Come on, Mrs. Lamborg.
Mrs. Lamborg ... oh, that's me!
They're going to have their photo taken.
- Don't you want to drive, Ulrik? - Maybe he'd rather walk.
Good girl. l think there's a cake ...
- Two. - Two, and then it's straight to bed.
- Aren't you at the wedding? - No, l got bored.
- Where are you going? - Back to Copenhagen.
- Have dinner with your mother first. - No, thank you!
Laura, l'll have dinner now, so you can go.
Ulrik, what on earth ..? You're at the wedding.
- Not anymore, as you can see. - Has something happened?
No.
- I'll put Helle to bed. - Thank you, Laura.
We could have dinner together. Your father won't be back till later.
- No thank you. l'm off. - Why did you leave the wedding?
- At least you could tell me ... - Why l won't celebrate your triumph?
- My triumph? - Yes, this is your day, too.
You ruined it. You couldn't accept it.
- They weren't good enough for you. - What have l done?
You always get your own way, at our expense.
At Father's, Regitze's, mine, Elisabeth's ...
You only ever cared about yourself ...
- Would you like me to stay? - No, you can go now.
- What about dinner? - I don't think I want any.
l'll put it in the haybox, then.
Did you forget your key, Hans Christian? lsn't it you?
- Is that you, Ulrik? - It's Stein.
- I hope l didn't frighten you. - No. It's just that l'm on my own.
- The gate was open. - Yes, till my husband comes home.
We've got the Germans in the back garden now.
- I thought your husband was in. - He's coming soon.
Won't you take off your coat?
- Please go in. - Thank you.
- Take a seat. - Thank you.
I've been walking around since 12:30.
I had to leave the bank. The Germans came to get me.
You, Mr. Stein? Oh, God ...
I should've listened to my son-in-law when he called several days ago.
- The Rabbi had been tipped off. - What did your son-in-law say?
They wanted to take me to Sweden right away.
But there are so many rumors. l never thought it would happen here.
- I've always kept to myself. - But we know what they're like ...
I wanted to think it over. And your husband needed some papers today.
- I'm responsible when he's away. - But you're a citizen in this country.
- You've always done your duty. - I'm sorry to upset you.
- Where have you been all day? - In the park, among other places.
And you haven't eaten? I was just going to eat.
And I don't like eating on my own.
The dining room is freezing. Do you mind eating in the kitchen?
Not at all, Mrs. Varnæs.
When we're on our own, my husband and I sometimes sit here.
- It's a large house to heat. - We've closed off most of it.
We only heat up the dining room when we have visitors.
It's odd. This afternoon, I tried to hide in the cemetery too.
l could hear there was a wedding.
While the bells were ringing, l could see your rooms before me.
- I was here last at your wedding. - But the wedding was held in Funen.
The old Mrs. Varnæs had invited the whole staff and their families -
- to see the presents. There was tea and sandwiches.
It gave my wife Sasja great pleasure.
She took a great interest in your family.
We must have been on our honeynoon.
Yes, but the old Mrs. Varnæs showed us the wedding photograph.
- When did your wife die? - Six years ago at Christmas.
Our daughter Ruth got married one year before.
- Have you felt very lonely? - Well, l have my work.
l've always liked working with your husband.
I wonder where he's got to. I hope he gets home before curfew.
I have to go before curfew, at any rate. lf you'll tell him how things are.
- But l can't let you go just like that. - You mustn't take any risks.
- What do l risk? - They blow up people's houses.
They'd kicked and torn everything in my flat.
All the more reason for you to stay.
lt must be Laura or my husband, but you'd better go upstairs.
- Is that you, Hans Christian? - No, it's Daniel.
- I thought Laura was in the kitchen. - l thought you were my husband.
- Aren't you at the wedding? - Yes, but l'm looking for Ulrik.
Ulrik's gone to Copenhagen.
Mr. Stein, it's just Daniel Skjern.
This is Mr. Stein from the bank, we're waiting for my husband.
Well, l'd better be off then. It's a pity about Ulrik.
- Yes. - Well, goodbye, then.
Daniel? Don't tell anybody you've seen Mr. Stein here.
- There's nothing strange about that. - No, but l'm wanted by the Germans.
- What for? - Because l'm Jewish.
But nobody in Korsbæk ever gave that a thought.
The rules of the game in Korsbæk are out of action.
We're waiting for my husband. Maybe he knows what we can do.
You mustn't tell anybody, but my grandmother often hides people.
But she'll be at the wedding.
Yes, and they're staying at the Post House, but I know where the key is.
It's a long way out there. lf only l could get hold of the doctor ...
The Germans tap the phones.
You and the boy mustn't risk anything for my sake ...
I know you can stay at my gran's. My grandfather's van is in the yard.
- Isn't Skjern's yard locked? - l can jump over the fence.
- Ulrik and l've done it 1 ,000 times. - Not in tails.
l'm sorry. Don't put yourself out. I can't drive.
And my grandfather's at the wedding. I've only learnt to light the producer.
I can drive.
There aren't any Germans this side of Algade.
- Is the producer working? - Yes, you can start now.
The key's under the eaves on the right, by the gable.
Daniel.
- Helle's all alone. l'd forgotten her. - l'll stay till someone comes.
We must be there soon.
lt seems so unreal to me. You sitting here in a pig van ... for my sake.
All right, little doggy, we just want shelter.
I guess it's used to strangers.
One minute to eight. We made it before curfew.
Have you been waiting? l ran all the way from the station.
- Daniel? Are you with Ulrik? - No, I'm looking after Helle.
- And my wife ..? - She drove with Mr. Stein.
- ln what? - My grandfather's pig van.
Excuse me, before you go on ... Do you want one too?
- We were waiting for you. - The trains were stopped for 4 hours.
We were all searched at the Central Station.
They're hunting down Jews.
They read Hans Kirk in this house. ''The Day-Laborers''.
- That's probably the grandmother. - I've never had time read it.
- You've got the night ahead of you. - Yes.
l could have saved you all this trouble if l'd listened to my son-in-law.
- Nothing's happened to me. - This house belongs to strangers.
If they can help us, they're not strangers.
And you'll have to sit bolt upright till tomorrow morning ...
Who says l can't lie down? It's nice and clean here.
How the hell did it get here?
- Someone's coming. - Maybe it's our hosts.
Hullo, there, Quick ...
- How did ... - Excuse us, but Daniel ...
l wondered how the van got here.
We had to find a place ... This is Mr. Stein from Korsbæk Bank.
- Yes, l know Mr. Stein. - And it's to do with Mr. Stein?
- Your grandson said it was all right. - Of course it's all right.
I don't want to put you in an awkward situation again.
After the episode with the photos -
- nobody suspects anything serious from us.
So you're not the first man my wife's had in the house.
- And you managed to drive the van? - Mrs. Varnæs drove it.
l'll be damned! Now we know where to get hold of a driver for the pigs.
l'm sure you could both do with a cup of coffee. There's a single bean in it.
I'll never forgive myself for going to that meeting.
- Nothing happened, Hans Christian. - What did Mr. Stein say?
He sent his regards and said he was sorry he didn't balance the ledger.
- ls there anything l can do? - They say they'll take care of him.
- ''They''? Who's they? - Nobody says.
It's here.
l've been promoted doctor. Hello.
And you've been demoted to a Mr. Hansen with arthritic fever.
- ls that? - Some clothes ... from your neighbor.
There's some jewelry as well.
- When do we go? - Now. You're sailing across tonight.
Well ... sooner or later we had to meet.
l am extremely grateful to you.
Oh, here ... it's money. The man with the boat gets 2,000 kroner.
You'll need the rest in Sweden. They're in pound sterling.
The envelopes are marked.
- How did you get pounds? - We both have banking connections.
You've done so much for me, but l'd like to ask you one more favor.
- Sure, if it's within my power. - Please tell my boss that l've left.
There's one more thing ...
lt's odd. They're adults and married, how can they carry on like that?
- There are several ways to survive. - The noise can be heard all over.
Then perhaps the Germans can have a little dance. Thanks.
Get your hands off me, creep! Oh, good heavens ...
We were short of a gentleman.
Iben! The man of the house has come home.
Come on!
- Who was it? - The manager of the new bank.
He says he has a message for you.
Maybe he wants to excuse the noise.
Good evening. I couldn't call you on the phone. lt's about Mr. Stein.
Please come in.
- Is he ... Do you know where? - He's on his way over.
- To Sweden? - Yes. Perhaps he's already there.
I saw him get on board over two hours ago, a couple of hour's drive away.
l promised to tell you right away.
- Sit down, Kristen. - Yes, l should have asked you to.
Thank you.
There was one more thing ... He asked me to give you this.
It's Russian. His family brought it when they fled from Kiev.
That was last time.
What's the matter, Maude?
I can't put it in words.
