Previously...
You got a letter from Veronika you think is genuine.
We don't think it is genuine, and we can obtain a judgment
following a very long and very stupid legal battle,
or you can tie a ribbon round the whole business right now
by accepting the settlement I have offered you.
You can shove your settlement up your backside.
I am not afraid of seeing you in court.
We have to show the court that you had absolutely no contact with Veronika
before she got in touch with you, and this is very, very important,
we will need your father and your adoptive mother to testify as such.
Frederik will undoubtedly try to show that Veronika's will was more your will.
What? That I made Veronika write the letter?
That's a lie and he knows it.
The deed of transfer makes it pretty unlikely
that you were after the house from the start.
Yes, but I don't have the deed of transfer.
- No, but I assume you have a copy. - No, I gave it to Gro.
Can you get it back?
No, I know very well that it's Frederik who is making you take this line,
but unless you give me that contract right now I will go to the police myself
and turn you in for forging the signature on the trust document.
There is no trust paper. There is no proof.
- A lot of people have copies. - No, they don't,
because Frederik collected everything; the copies,
the original, the whole fucking lot.
I am really sorry to intrude. Look, I just wanted a word with Gro.
She isn't here. Is there anything I can help you with?
She meant me to pick up some contract.
- Where did you get that? - Gro is in Copenhagen.
- Did you break in? - No, Rene gave it to me actually.
Now.
- It was an honest mistake. - Yes, it was a mistake
- that is going to cost me the house, Emil. - Listen to this! Gro met John yesterday.
Thomas was there too. He saw John prowling around the house.
You realise that if what you're telling me now is true...
we can overturn Signe's entire defence.
But you don't know what you are up against.
- Frederik will crush you completely. - And you'll help him, Gro.
Don't answer that.
Make way, make way, thank you.
Signe, we will just do precisely as we agreed.
Frederik will start by presenting his evidence and then it will be your turn,
and then the witnesses will be called, in orderly fashion, one by one.
And remember, even if Frederik lays into you, just take a deep breath
- and take your time. - Yes.
Where the hell has Emil got to?
Weird him not being here. He said he'd be here from the word go.
- Hi, Martin. - Hi, Solveig. - Hi.
- Hi, Frederik. - I'll be with you in a second.
That's fine.
- See you, darling. - Yes.
- I am so sorry I can't get the day off. - That's all right.
It was lovely you gave me a lift into town. See you.
I'll come and get you afterwards.
- Hello. - Bye.
- Thanks for last time. - Karen. - Solveig.
- Hi. - Hi.
- Right. - Just take your time, all right?
See you shortly.
May I sit down?
- May I sit down? - Do, go ahead.
The court is in session.
This hearing is to determine the validity
of the deathbed will Veronika Grønnegaard
drew up in favour of Signe Larsen.
The plaintiff is Frederik Grønnegaard.
THE LEGACY
At the courthouse in Svendborg the legal battle over the legacy
left by Veronika Grønnegaard has just started
and so far the only parties in attendance
are Frederik Grønnegaard and Signe Larsen.
Later today we also expect to see Gro Grønnegaard
as she will be testifying against her half-sister,
and it will be interesting to hear her interpretation of the case,
as she originally wished to turn Grønnegaard into a museum,
and why she did not succeed, well, perhaps we'll learn the reason today.
Thank you, thank you.
Sorry, but can we get a move on? I am meant to be in court!
Please, remove those sunglasses.
Yes, of course. It's just really important for me to be there on time.
Yes, but you should have considered that before you broke the speed limit
by 20 kph in a car that isn't roadworthy.
- Yes, I understand. - It's illegal and it's dangerous.
- Do you agree? - Yes. - Here. - Thanks.
- And it'll cost you three points. - That's fine.
Signe Larsen,
when did you meet Veronika Grønnegaard for the first time?
When she came to the shop to buy flowers the day before she died.
- So you'd never met her before that. - No.
So why did you agree to go to her house at 5 in the morning?
An unknown lady who phones you in the middle of the night?
Firstly because she said it was important,
and also because I could somehow tell...
...well, that I really had to go.
And you chose to accept the deathbed will.
I didn't have time to object because she fell.
But I did take it home, yes.
And two weeks later you chose to transfer the house to the museum
trust that Gro Grønnegaard was setting up, why so?
Firstly, I never had any intention
of taking anything away from my siblings
but Gro convinced me that the best thing was to give the house to the trust
so we could make a museum.
That was her mother's wish, or it was what her mother wanted, she said.
Yes.
As you can see from exhibit 6a,
Signe gave the house to the Grønnegaard museum trust.
I have to ask if you tried in any way
to pressurise Veronika into writing that deathbed will.
No. She had already written it when I arrived.
Thank you.
And the plaintiff.
Signe, who is paying your legal costs?
- My father is. - Your father, John Larsen.
Yes.
Thank you, no more questions.
Right.
I understand that you have agreed that the first witness to be called
is the defendant's boyfriend Andreas Baggesen.
Yes, please.
Emil Grønnegaard, do you think Signe Larsen took unfair advantage of your mother?
- That is not up to me to decide. - How does it feel to be suing
- your own sister? - What do you think your mother
- would have said about this case? - I haven't the foggiest.
Do you know where I am meant to go?
Hey there, I am coming too.
- Hi, Andreas. - Hi. - Yes. - Hi. Emil.
- Take the stand. - Thank you.
Hello.
- Just sit down. - OK.
Which of you is Andreas Baggesen?
- I am. - I am just the brother.
Andreas Baggesen,
are you close to Signe's father and adoptive mother?
Yes.
What will become of your mother's works now?
And you never suspected that Lise wasn't Signe's mother?
No.
Very well.
Thank you, no more questions.
Are you nervous?
No, I am fine, thanks.
That's good.
There is one thing that puzzles me, which is...
Signe says she didn't want the house,
but nevertheless she took the trouble to go to a lawyer's,
Ole Kaufmann, to have the letter checked out.
Actually it was against Signe's wishes.
How can it be against her wishes? It was her letter!
It was her father, John, who thought we should have it checked out,
and I also thought it was the only proper thing to do,
but Signe actually got really angry about it
because as you say, she didn't want the house at all at that stage.
Thank you, no more questions.
Gro, it's time.
Gro Grønnegaard, do you realise
that your testimony is subject to the penalty of law,
and that if you do not tell the truth here you can be punished?
Yes.
- Go ahead. - Thank you.
Well, Gro.
There were plans that Signe Larsen was going to help you make a museum
out of Grønnegaard in the period following Veronika's death.
She showed up with a deathbed will
and she wanted to give the house to the trust.
- Yes. - That was jolly decent of her,
wanting to give the house to the trust.
But not really, because what happened next?
I was informed that the deathbed will was not valid
and the museum could therefore not come about.
And why was the deathbed will not valid?
Because my mother received help to write it against her will.
No, excuse me, but that is simply a lie. Gro, you were the one
who forged the trust papers, and it was not Veronika's will at all.
This is not getting us anywhere. Signe, stop it!
We cannot prove anything, this will get us nowhere.
- She is Iying in court. - Signe, stop it!
Please, refrain from any more emotional outbursts. Carry on.
Thank you.
Would you say that you were the one closest of all to Veronika Grønnegaard?
Yes.
And did your mother ever mention Signe Larsen?
- No. - Never at all?
No.
Thank you, no more questions.
Go ahead.
Gro,
you just said that Veronika never mentioned Signe.
Did Veronika talk about her life in other ways?
Yes.
But never about Signe.
No.
Did Veronika mention that she was ill?
No.
Your mother was diagnosed with breast cancer a few weeks before she died,
she was in the middle of an extensive programme of tests.
Didn't she mention that?
No.
Do you think it was because it didn't matter to her?
Isn't it so that there are things in life that are far too difficult to talk about,
yet they are perhaps the very things that are closest to our hearts of all?
I don't know.
I don't know what she thought about. I don't know what went on in her mind.
But you know that Signe pushed Veronika into writing that deathbed will?
I don't know anything.
Thank you.
We will recess for 15 minutes.
But it is weird that he only asked me that one question.
Yes.
- Hey, Frederik, I'm off now. - You can't go now.
- But I have said my piece, haven't I? - Stay on, Gro,
- let's show our support for Frederik. - You don't even have to testify
or anything. You can just drift your way around everything.
Gro, he hasn't been in Denmark for the last ten years.
- That has nothing to do with it, it's just so typical of him. - Stop it, Gro!
Well now, we have brought the two together.
- Hi. - Hi.
- How is it going inside?
- It... - It's going very well.
Good.
- Lise, you are on now. - OK.
- It'll all be over soon, darling. - Yes. - Right?
So you decided that Signe was never to know who her real mother was.
Yes.
I... we felt it was for the best at the time
but I regret it now.
And since that time there has been no contact
between you all and Veronika Grønnegaard?
No, we haven't had any contact.
- John, you are on. - Yes.
John Larsen,
you say that there has been no contact between you and Veronika?
Yes, that is correct.
Of course there were a couple of occasions,
I mean over the years, when we have been in touch.
Yes.
When did you last talk together, you and Veronika?
I couldn't tell you off hand.
No, but perhaps I can help you,
because I have a transcript of Veronika's phone bill.
Excuse me, but we seem to be departing from the case,
we have not been given any such exhibits.
No, that is correct. I only obtained access to these papers
yesterday evening. I hope I may be permitted to disclose them now.
Why didn't you bring this up at the start?
Of course I should have done so, I apologise, it's an error on my part.
- What does this mean? - If we refuse to accept disclosure
of the transcript now we'll end up in the High Court.
It does seem relevant to the case, so it must be up to you to decide.
Well, I don't have much option.
Thank you.
Thank you very much,
Well now John, these itemised phone bills indicate that you and Veronika
had quite a bit of contact in the months prior to her death.
Actually they show that you spoke together no fewer than nine times
in the period between 3 October and 23 December.
Would you like to tell us what you talked about?
Veronika wanted Signe to be her heir but I said no.
Do you deny that it was you
who called Veronika and not the other way round?
It may well have been me who phoned her, but that was what we talked about.
Perhaps the conversation may have been the other way round,
so that you actually tried to persuade her to give Signe the house?
Frederik, damn it, you know very well I would never do anything like that.
- I don't know that at all. - Come off it.
- You have done quite a bit of building work on that house. - Yes.
So you felt you had invested a great deal in it.
- Yes, I do feel I have. - Perhaps you felt in some way
that Signe had a certain right to inherit the house?
There must be a limit as regards leading questions.
Keep to the case, Frederik Grønnegaard.
I will rephrase that.
Do you think Signe is entitled to inherit Grønnegaard?
- I never put any pressure on Veronika. - No, but do you think Signe is entitled
- to inherit Grønnegaard? - You can bloody well bet I do!
Thank you, no more questions.
- I'd like to request a brief recess. - All right, ten minutes.
I just don't get it. We have built our entire case
on there not being any contact.
- Why didn't you tell us? - Veronika phoned me and I refused,
I mean, I didn't think it was important.
Frederik twists everything.
He doesn't realise that all his notions have nothing to do with real life.
That is a weird thing to say, why did you say that?
His adored father just upped and left.
He was gay and we went to the States
and he came home because he was dying of AIDS.
- And what has that got to do with it? - Yes?
I didn't ask Veronika for anything,
just as you never asked her for anything either.
Hi.
I can't stand it here, I want to go home.
You asked me to come to testify, didn't you?
- Yes. - Come along.
- Hi. - Hi.
- Are you all right? - Yes.
- I think I'll pop back in. - Yes, do that.
Yes.
Robert Eliasen. You were Veronika Grønnegaard's gallerist
for the last twelve years of her life, is that correct?
That is correct.
You were in daily contact with either Veronika or her daughter Gro,
often with regard to the purchase and sale of works, is that correct?
That is also correct.
Just over three years ago you sold Veronika's work Opbrud
and something peculiar occurred in connection with the sale
or more accurately with the transfer of funds.
Will you tell us what happened?
Veronika wanted to deposit the proceeds of the sale
- in another account than her own. - Another account than her own?
- And how much money was involved? - 43,000 Euros.
43,000 Euros, that's about 320,000 Danish krone.
Whose account was the money to be put into?
John Larsen's.
- Are you quite sure? - I am quite sure, John Larsen's.
You mean this John Larsen who says there has been no contact,
who says that he did not wish to receive anything,
but who nevertheless received 320,000 Danish kroner
and took the letter to his lawyer and who is now paying
- his daughter's legal costs. - Objection. This is not the time
- for closing arguments. - Stick to the case.
Thank you, Robert. Hey, don't go.
Do you have any questions for the witness?
Do you have any reason to suspect
that John Larsen exerted any pressure on Veronika for that money?
- I wouldn't know anything about that. - So you don't. - No.
Thank you, no more questions.
We'll adjourn for today and resume tomorrow at 9.30.
John!
John, stop!
Did you get money from her? Why didn't you mention it?
That money went on the deposit for their house, damn it.
That was what Veronika offered and that is what I said yes to.
I wanted to protect you.
Signe never discovered anything, did she?
And I only thought it was fair for her to pay something too.
If Signe loses this case because of you I will never forgive you.
- Lise. - Don't touch me.
He leaned on her. Otherwise why would he sit there telling lies like that?
Do calm down a moment. I know that it was quite traumatic
and I know we were not prepared for this,
but you really must keep a cool head now.
New evidence has been pouring in all day. He has told lie after lie after lie.
He certainly hasn't handled things particularly wisely.
But there is no evidence that he has broken the law.
- See you tomorrow. - Yes.
Get some sleep.
Frederik, what are your feelings right now?
I am not involved with feelings, I am trying to concentrate on facts.
Were you surprised by some of the things that emerged today?
No, I am not.
So you are satisfied with the way the day has gone?
I am completely satisfied with the way the day has gone
and you will receive a more extensive answer tomorrow.
- Hi. - Hi, darling. Did it go well?
Yes, I think so.
I have shopped for supper.
Emil, come on, come to supper.
- Actually I have a dinner date. - With whom?
- Just a few old school pals and stuff. - OK, but you must come home to sleep,
and I'll make sure you are up early in the morning.
- Yeah, bye, have a nice evening. - Thanks, you too.
Hey.
Hi.
Give us a hit.
It is absolutely crazy
sitting there in the public gallery gazing at one's own life.
Frederik is going to win.
I couldn't care less any more. I don't need the house, the museum is over.
I have to move on.
But I just don't know what I'm going to do.
What do you want to do?
All I want to do is to be with you.
Hey, are you two sitting here?
Look, how are things going in there?
Are they biting each other's heads off?
Yes, something along those lines.
Do you think Frederik will end up with the house?
You can never tell but I think so, yes.
Hey, remember to take a corkscrew
so you don't have to keep popping back here.
No, it's a screw top.
- Right, so that's sorted. - No red, Lone.
He won't move out. He'll just want to stay.
How will you feel if I leave Claudia?
Married men never leave, Robert.
Jacob!
- Will you take over the session? - Sure.
- I have something to attend to. - No problem.
- John? - Not right now.
- John, can't we just have a word? - Not right now.
Hey, what the hell are you thinking of, eh?
Ole, have you got a moment?
Sure.
That letter from Veronika.
Yes, I thought you'd come asking for it.
Tell you what, pop by in an hour and I'll find it for you, all right?
- OK? - Thank you.
I don't know if he's a psychopath, being able to lie so much.
No, John is no psychopath. Shall we have another slug?
Yes.
- Stop, stop, stop. - Whoops. Oh no, I'm really sorry.
What about your father?
What about him?
Is it true that he was into men?
I beg your pardon?
No, who says so?
John does.
John said that?
Bloody hell.
Yes, but that he met a man and they went off to the States and then...
and he had AIDS when he got home.
Don't tell that to Frederik.
- OK. - He won't be able to take it.
Your dad says my dad was gay.
My dad is a psychopath.
- Maybe they screwed. - What?
Maybe they screwed.
- I bet they did. - Me too.
So that's twice times... Don't hit us.
- I have been through it all. - Yes.
It doesn't look as if John Larsen received more money,
but I did find something else.
Let's look at it at the office.
You are so annoying. Right, sit down quietly.
Tobias, what don't you understand?
No need for you to struggle with it, you can sort these cards.
- Bye. - No!
Are we still going to move into Grønnegaard, dad?
Yes, it would seem so.
What did Martin want?
Nothing, nothing.
- I don't believe it. - Solveig, Solveig...
I mean for goodness sake.
Emil has received about 4 million krone
from Veronika in the last six years,
gifts that have not been recorded anywhere, investments,
regular transfers month after month after month.
4 million?
Yes.
He has received practically his entire legacy.
Yes!
- Hi. - Hi.
- Are you drunk? - Do you mind?
Yes.
- You're drunk. - Not especially.
Is there anything to eat?
Hey, where have you been?
Down at the docks.
With who?
With Emil.
We are in the middle of a legal battle
and you go out and drink yourself silly with Emil?
Yes, and I don't care.
You don't care?
I don't care about the court case at any rate.
Yes, but if you decide you have already lost, you will lose for sure.
What if I think it is most right if I do lose?
Lise.
Hi, this is Lise, I can't answer the phone right now
but leave a message and I'll call you back, bye.
Lise, it's John.
Look, there is something we need to talk about.
Please call me back, please, it is really important.
Call immediately.
Fuck me!
Why aren't you asleep?
- My session with the lads went on a bit. - I see.
I'll be all right tomorrow, don't worry.
How much money have you actually received over the years?
- I have no idea. - Just roughly.
Close to a million, I guess I've had.
I know it's a lot of money.
I expect she saw it as a kind of investment or something.
Why?
You have received 3,987,000 krone.
Wow!
Maybe there is another Emil Grønnegaard in Thailand.
If we deduct the sum from the estate,
it leaves you with a legacy of pretty much nothing.
You mustn't disinherit me.
I am not disinheriting you, Emil.
You've merely already had your share of the legacy.
No, it can't be right, there has to be something left for me.
- We'll have to talk to Gro about it. - No. - It's her money too.
She has never been able to understand my way of life.
I don't understand your way of life either.
We'll have to talk to Gro about this business after the court case.
Frederik, I've got to pay what I owe now. I don't know what will happen if I don't.
I have bought a bridge.
- You have bought a bridge? - Yes and mum promised
she'd pay for it so I borrowed the money from a guy
and I don't know what he's capable of if I don't pay him back soon.
I'm sorry. Sorry. I know I have been a complete fool.
Who did you borrow money from?
- Who did you borrow it from? - I borrowed it from a guy in Thailand,
from Bangkok, he organizes betting.
- You borrowed it from a gangster. - Yes, I am not involved...
- Are you a complete imbecile? - Chill, Frederik, damn it, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to, I didn't realise I'd had all that money, I had no fucking idea.
- I am not trying to cheat you two. - I am going to bed.
- I am trying... - I am going to bed.
He borrowed money from the mafia, the Thai mafia.
You must be able to give him some money though.
Gro will never agree to it.
Maybe she doesn't need to know.
That little fool has never learned to act responsibly about anything.
- You can't just leave him in the lurch. - I can't give Gro's money away.
You can work something out so he can go back
and sort that business out.
Give him another chance.
One last chance.
- There, are you going to have one? - Yes, please.
I am not going to tell anyone about the money you've already received,
not Gro either.
And nobody is going to go through those bank statements unless we ask
them to, and so the sum won't be included in when the estate is divided.
So I'll get my legacy.
You have had it.
You can thank my lovely wife for allowing you to have it a second time.
I have got Danish and maths.
- Did you finish that homework? - Yes.
Really and truly?
- Good morning. - Good morning.
Emil, are you coming swimming today?
No, I can't, half pint, we have to go to court.
But what about tomorrow then? I can jump off the five metre board.
Emil has a lot to do. And you have to pack your bag.
- No. - Yes, you do. - Come on, kiddo, I'll help you.
I am going back to Copenhagen as soon as the court case ends.
That's fine.
Thank you for your help.
Hi, all.
- Sister. - Hi, Robert.
- Thanks for your help yesterday. - Hi, Robert.
Hi.
- Good luck. - Thank you, have a safe journey,
What a gorgeous fella! Check-out that arse!
How nice that you take such good care of our witness.
- What has got into you two? - It's nice of you, that's all.
Michael Lind, would you tell the court what you do for a living?
I am a specialist in family medicine.
Would you please listen to the following description
from an ambulance that was called out to Veronika Grønnegaard's.
I am quoting from exhibit 3.
The patient is responsive but confused.
She slips in and out of consciousness.
There is no sign of improved oxygen and we suspect a stroke.
We know that at this stage Veronika had consumed
approximately two bottles of wine and a mixture of various prescription drugs;
Tramadol, Diazepam, Hexalid, Citalopram...
and the list goes on and on.
We know that she has been diagnosed with cancer
and that it has spread and that she has had a stroke.
The doctor says she is confused.
If this were one of your patients would you advise
that vital decisions be made under such circumstances?
No, I probably would not.
No. Would you say that under these circumstances
people usually possess sound judgement?
No, I would not say so.
Well, this was the Veronika from whom Signe...
Fuck! Sorry.
Sorry. I will have to just...
This was the Veronika from whom Signe received her letter that evening.
I cannot help asking myself whether one might imagine that Signe perhaps
realised that Veronika was not fully compos mentis at this stage.
Could one perhaps imagine that Signe Larsen realised
that John had been exerting pressure on Veronika to write the letter
and perhaps her conscience got the better of her
and she therefore decided to give the house to the trust?
- For goodness sake! - Let me remind
you that this is not a criminal case and this is not the time
- for your closing arguments. - No. Thank you,
- I have no more questions. - It says here
that the patient smelled of spirits. It doesn't say that she was drunk.
How does alcohol affect somebody who drinks daily
and who has done so most of her adult life?
Obviously the body adjusts. The body can tolerate more and more.
If you drink regularly for 25 years, for example, you don't necessarily
get drunk from two bottles of wine you have consumed over an entire day?
Alcohol tolerance is very individual.
- Come on, Emil. - Yes, yes. I am coming.
- What the hell are you doing? - Yeah, I am on my way.
- Hey Thomas, I was looking for you. - Hey, but...
- It's time to go in. You are on now. - Sorry about that. - That's all right.
What is the hurry?
- Does Lise know about this? - No.
I think you should use it.
Don't go in there.
We have got to talk first.
Lise.
Would you approach the bench, please?
A letter has emerged which the defendant would like permission
to have read aloud to the court. I feel it is relevant to the case.
Please bear in mind that the defendant has been amenable
to all the documents you have wished to present.
What guarantees do I have that this letter is genuine?
I can phone Ole Kaufmann, he is the original recipient of the letter.
Shall we adjourn and ask Ole to come to court to verify the letter?
Of course this will only be necessary
if you really have reason to believe that the letter is not genuine.
This should have been disclosed at a much earlier stage.
The case took a new twist yesterday which my client
and I were frankly not particularly prepared for,
or of course we would have disclosed this letter somewhat earlier.
We both know that the case will proceed straight to the High Court
unless we include everything now,
which will be both expensive and time-consuming of all concerned.
All right, use it.
I stand here with a letter Veronika Grønnegaard wrote to Ole Kaufmann,
a lawyer, on 30 July 2011. It says:
Dear Ole.
I am writing to you because I can't get through to John.
You know that we had a dramatic argument on our trip to Rome last month.
I have kept my word for the last 22 years
and have not contacted Sunshine,
but I am no spring chicken,
Ole, and I want Signe to take over my house when I finally depart.
Sunshine is my child and John's,
and it is natural that Sunshine is entitled
to be given something by her mother.
I hope you will plead my case. Affectionately, Veronika.
Mum...
mum!
Do you wish to call more witnesses following this development in the case?
I just want you to know that I don't give a shit
what that crazy bitch wrote in some letter or other.
She changed her mind so often you never knew where you had her.
And you! You prowled around up
there just waiting for a chunk of flesh to fall off in your direction.
- This is going to the High Court! - No, Frederik, let's stop now.
No, it won't stop until I have got that house, it is my father's house
and she took it from him and then she threw him out!
- Order in court. - Your father walked out on you!
- He was gay! - Signe, don't. - It's true.
He ran away with another man, Frederik.
- How dare you! - He came back dying of AIDS.
Shut your fucking mouth!
I don't understand why you think it's sad for him, Emil.
Sit down, all of you!
He has been sitting there Iying for two days now
and he doesn't give a toss about anything.
What the hell do you know about that man?
Emil?
Never mind, Frederik, never mind.
Emil, you'll have to leave him be.
- How about going outside for a smoke? - No, I don't want a smoke.
- What? - Not now.
Is he there?
Hi.
Hey. Hey, kids.
How did it go?
The court is in session.
Oh, OK.
- Hi. - Hi. Emil.
Yes, we'll be along in a jiffy. There is hot chocolate in the vending machine.
Frederik Grønnegaard has withdrawn his case.
That means that as already affirmed by the executor,
in accordance with the deathbed will dated 24 December 2013,
Grønnegard passes to you, Signe Larsen.
Are you prepared to enter into a settlement as regards the legal costs?
That means that Frederik will not have to pay your costs.
No, no, no, I don't want him to have to pay anything.
Good, right, yes, then the case is therefore dismissed.
Grønnegaard is yours.
Congratulations.
I really hope it was worth it, Signe.
- How really magnificent. - Emil.
Just what kind of person are you, damn it?
So you managed to screw everything up.
You are never to contact us again, never.
Signe has got the house.
- Well, congratulations. - Thank you.
- Thanks for your help. - Think nothing of it.
I would like to be alone.
Yes.
- Lise. - There is no more to say.
- I don't know where to begin. - I think you should pack your things.
I want you out of the house this afternoon.
