"The professor asked me to tell the young gentleman to look in on him," "Yes..." "I'm coming." "I have an invitation for you Jacob." "It's from uncle Andreas in Nybro." "He would like you to go over there and visit this summer?" "They miss you, he says here, both he and Aunt Lily, and Vibreke too.... .... yes, Vibeke most of all....." "Now of course..." "I don't want to... to put pressure on you" "Do whatever you wish..... but didn't you honestly have a wonderful time there last time." "You're a little anemic ..dark under the eyes" "You've simply doing too much, my boy." "I remember too well how it was when I was at school...." "The second form was the worst." "Well then.....what do you say?" "..yes?" "Master....." "Yes?" "I just wanted to know if the young gentleman would like a cup of chocolate?" "Why do you ask that?" "Well, Miss Hansen isn't here.." "......" "I'm all alone... and I thought that before going to bed I'ld have a cup of chocolate." "Why should I drink chocolate, just because I am going to bed?" "No...but the young gentleman, in the house where I was before .well you see..." "I always brought him a cup of chocolate.... ...at night." "I just thought....." "No Thanks!" "Everything fine?" "Have you enough money for the trip?" "Yes, I have not yet spent my allowance." "Yes, but you are on vacation..." "It's a good thing to have something in your pocket if you are..." "let's say going out with a young lady... 20.....20 Kroner!" "That's far too much" "No..." "No.." "I can remember how it was with me when I was your age." "So we came this far..." "Yes we came this far" "We are moving on when we are done here." "Yes you can drive away when you are done here." "We always like to have you visit.... ...Your father doesn't have to ask if you can come here." "Thank you very much for letting me stay." "You're welcome anytime you want to come." "Where is Aunt Lily?" "....why did she not come?" "It is too bad she couldn't come but we were at the police chiefs for diner. we accepted the invitation long before we knew you were coming. .." "I begged off for half an hour....." "I'm going back as soon as I take you home." "em...and..." "Vibeke...is she there also?" "Shame on you..!" "But what did he do?" "That's Miss Steinkop....." "She has a bitch that gets on heat now and then" "everytime she's in heat...well, you know.." "there are always a lot of male dogs that want to get to her and Miss Steinkop is a member of the church council and. I think I have said enough." "How are you?" "I thought you were at the constables?" "So we are..." "I just went to the station to pick up my nephew." "Why yes...that right" "Let me present high-school student.... ...." "Jacob Latour-Peterson.... ..Assistant Physician Irving Morgenson from Linalyst." "Is this the professors son?" "What are you doing here this evening... when we aren't at home?" "I have been delivering some medicine.... for insect bites." "After that I went to see a patient... the bakers daughter..you know" "Anyway.." "I've got to be going..." "I'll probably drop in on you tomorrow....." "goodbye." "You won't mind if I go now will you?" "No...of course not." "Your suitcase will be in your room.... ..and supper is ready for you in the dining room.." "alright..thanks" "And you had better not wait up for us.... ...it may be eleven -thirty before we can get away." "See you later." "My name is Hansigne" "Jacob Latour Peterson" "Did you have a tiring journey?" "No...it was fine." "You're room is ready." "Thanks" "Your supper is ready in the dining room" "Thank you but I would like to wash first." "There you are Jacob welcome to Nybro, it's so nice to see you." "My goodness..how you've grown..." "quite a man and handsome too" "Why...." "I do believe your beard is beginning to show." "You must be quite hungry after your trip... and..you'll find something to eat in the dining room...." "I've fixed some scraps of raw beef, you were so fond of." "Yes, thank you , but I really want to wash first." "Yes, certainly..trains are so dirty..." "that's good" "MANY PERILS AWAIT YOU .." "LIFE IS A MYSTERY.... ...." "THE BLACK HAND" "My.." "How tall you're grown.." "...welcome to Nybro." "You've grown too." "Wait a minute.." "I have something for you." "No...you mustn't come with me.." "Mother's gone to bed with one of her migraines." "Mother suffers so from her headaches but ever since Uncle Irving has been here she has been a lot better" "Your..your door isn't closed." "No... ..it comes open by itself." "The latch must be broken" "Yes...yes, that must be it." "Goodnight...sleep well." "I sent for it myself ..it's from the childrens bazaar." "you can't get things like this...." "Anyhow...you're too old to play with soldiers now" "No.." "I really don't have much time to play anymore but I still play with soldiers.." "..there are plenty of people older than I who do it." "There you are" "Thank you" "I'm very grateful." "You've never had one like this before?" "I have brought something for you too" "You did?" "A 20 Kroner gold piece did you really bring this for me?" "I don't know if I ought to accept money" "It wasn't my idea that you should buy anything with it." "This is a good luck piece... you're supposed to wear it around your neck" "Well then I don't see why I shouldn't accept it." "How sweet you are." "I really don't know how to thank you." "Now, you'd better go." "Good morning...." "Nice to see you...... my how you have grown." "There's a place for you there" "The weather isn't good today" "Yes, not very good." "Father has built a new summer house.." "It's out at the Norup Plantation right near the water.... ...It's wonderful for swimming" "It's a marvellous place...." "Maybe the plantation itself is nothing very elegant but it is a wonderful place for outings." "It is built in the Norwegian style it has genuine weathered beams, and gargoyles" "Furthermore, it is not far from Linalyst" "Theres a tuberculosis hospital a little north of Norup" "It's where Assistant Physician Morgenson is stationed" "Yes, I met him yesterday" "Irving is Andreas's best friend" "He's the only really cultured person anywhere around Nybro..." "The only one who has..." "well a touch of the outside world." "And it's a shame that ones closest friend, lives so far away" "Even though he has an automobile.. we don't see him everyday" "But the worst of it is.... ..your uncle has let somebody have the summerhouse.." "...gratis...naturally" "They're some poor relations... ..and they will be there for the whole of July." "The best part of the year" "Of course it is most generous of him..." "Andreas, is much too good for this world" "Certainly you can't always be helping people." "no we can't it's just that we will not be able to use it ourselves" "When are you planning to leave?" "Leave?" "Yes" "I'm starting my course in domestic science school on the fifteenth" "At Valleby, it's only a few miles away there isn't much she can learn here at home." "Jacob, I think you'd better go down and say hello to the others.." "..they know you are here, and they'll feel very complemented if you pay them a visit." "Irving called up..." "He's coming this afternoon for coffee." "How nice" "I'm afraid I won't have time to join you." "There's so much to be done down stairs now... accounts, and that sort of thing.... but you and he never seem to have any trouble finding things to talk about" "Let's go to the summer house, I'll race you." "Isn't this wonderful" "Yes, this could be our house when we are married" "Have..have you thrown all your playthings away?" "I didn't throw them away.." "I gave them away what I mean to say is father gave them away" "He knows so many people" "I still have my soldiers" "Do you still have your toys?" "Yes, there's something I haven't given away" "What is it?" "Will you promise not to laugh why should I laugh" "Do you promise?" "I promise" "On your word of honour?" "Yes, on my word of honour" "It's a doll a baby..." "It looks exactly like a two or three year old baby" "You know, it's exactly the right size" "I just couldn't give away a real baby" "Would you like to see her?" "It, it does look like a real baby" "I mean she does" "Do you like her?" "Yes..." "You can be her father." "and you can be mother" "Would you like to hold her very much" "I'll just lock the door" "We ought to get her ready for bed ...I'll just put her in her nightie" "You make up her cot so she can sleep" "Don't worry baby...." "I will just change your nightie" "Open up...." "Who's in there?" "Quick!" "...hide Duddi" "open up!" "at once" "You open the door" "What are you doing in here?" "Nothing" "Nonsense!" "...one is never doing "nothing".." "What were you up to?" "Playing" "What are you playing at?" "Jacob and me don't play with toys at our age" "..or play cards, we usually talk... the same as you do.." "But why are you here?" "Because it's raining... and, it's more comfortable here.. than outdoors" "yes, but why did you lock the door?" "We locked the door because father... ..and you too for that matter.." "said it must be kept locked." "Rubbish!" "...." "The door should be kept locked.. when no one is here" "You should be ashamed of yourselves" "We haven't done anything to be ashamed of Aunt" "I didn't say that you had done anything wrong" "I just don't want you to play in here." "Why not?" "Because I won't have it." "Now, get out" "I can't stand her!" "This is bad for Duddi" "How will we get her back?" "there's one window that can be opened from the outside" "I'll crawl in one night... ..when they are not at home." "Now you go to see papa at the pharmacy." "You must be Jacob...." "Welcome to Nybro." "You certainly have grown, since the last time you were here." "You're seventeen now, aren't you?" "Yes" "You still a boy scout?" "I dropped out" "But why did you do that, my friend" "I have no time" "Do you play chess?" "Yes" "You like to play?" "Yes..yes.." "I love chess" "I wouldn't say that is the right word to use.." "..you love your god... you love your country.." "...you love your parents, your wife , your children.." "..but you LIKE things such as chess..." "So now, when you feel like playing chess..." "Incidentally, I play chess rather well." "Yes, thank you." "You're all wet" "I don't care" "Did you find Duddi?" "shut up!" "Don't say a word about Duddi or anything else." "But Vebeke!" "Don't touch me!" "Leave me alone!" "I hate you" "check.... ....and Mate" "You play very well." "Well I don't wish to play anymore" "I'm too tired tonight." "If you want to be fair about it... ..The advantage was all yours." "You're rested..." "on vacation" "I've been working." "when I'm not so tired..." "I'll beat you perhaps" "I'll like that" "When you are not so tired, perhaps." "Now we'll have some tea." "What a nice place." "It is small.." "..but nice and clean." "As I say to the boys.." "A clean mind, clean speech, clean hands, and a clean home cost nothing." "Cleanliness costs soap." "Soap costs so little.." "..There's no reason to go dirty." "THE SECRET CARGO" "A GUIDE FOR YOUNG MEN TO AVOID SELF-ABUSE" "Do you masturbate?" "Pardon!" "Do you masturbate?" "No... ..I never do." "Do you know what it is to masturbate?" "Yes." "How can you know what it is then?" "Some boys at school have told me about it" "Almost all young men indulge in self abuse... ..but many deny it when asked." "But, I don't!" "It makes it a lot easier, when you talk about it." "But, I tell you, I don't !" "You don't need to be ashamed." "I've had so many boys at the YMCA tell me about it.... and, I have never reproached them.." "All I want to do is be helpful.." "partly with practical advice.." "Partly by leading men closer to Jesus." "Because, you know," "Jesus is the only one who can help us." "He's the only one who can give us the strength to resist temptation." "And just as certainly as he died for our sins.." "so he is the only one who can forgive us, when we sin." "The only one who can lift us up out of our degradation." "Now, tell me the truth!" "I told the truth!" "Yes..you're right.." "I'm a filthy, abominable depraved, self abuser." "I know it is terribly hard to confess..one feels ashamed" "Perhaps it will help you.... ...if I tell you That I too did it at one time" "You did!" "Yes." "When I was going to school." "Of course that was a long time ago." "and i can say, without making excuses.." "It was a picture that seduced me." "...that it was not my fault." "A famous picture.." "One of a kind, that passes for art." "It was a woman.." "...she was naked" "Every hair was visible." "No..." "I'm not going to describe it.." "...but it made such a strong impression on me... ..that.." "...I gave in to temptation." "Just think... ..that a picture can have, such an effect." "You still don't admit it?" "You can't admit something you haven't done." "Jacob..you know how much I like you" "Let's do it together" "I don't know what you mean" "I'm going now!" "You mustn't misunderstand" "I won't touch you" "I'm not that kind.." "...we'll each do it to himself." "but at the same time... ..that's all I mean at the same time." "afterwards we will knee down and pray to Jesus." "You had better not tell anyone!" "How disgusting you are." "It must be our right to take up arms against anyone who enters our country by force." "Any shedding of blood in our countries defense ...is futile" "The Germans will come, that is inevitable.." "I have no doubt of that" "It is pointless putting up any resistance" "It is not right to let the Germans take our country, without resistance!" "The man who doesn't strike back is not a real man." "It is a bad thing to say we are losing our independance, because the Germans are coming." "The Germans will of course receive voting rights just like they have in Germany." "And what a gain for scientists and poets  they can write in a world language." "What strong shoulders you have." "Should we allow ourselves to be destroyed as a nation, I ask you?" "Should we abandon all struggle without honour?" "If we really resist and stand and fight the English, and maybe the French and Russians, we come to our rescue." "They probably will." "Not for our sake, but for their own!" "Let's talk about something else." "Men cannot discuss politics without being enemies." "Your Soviet polical beliefs are dangerous!" "It is not my soviet beliefs that are dangerous, it is yours, you traitor!" "If you think I am a traitor then I don't understand why you come here." "It's late, I have to get back." "I do not think you understand me, it's not only today ." "I would have loved to be here without being in your company." "As you wish!" "I won't trouble you again." "Excuse me." "Sorry, but I do not think that it's something to be disagreeing about." "the next war, if there is going to be one... will be between, France and Germany.... or, Germany on one side, and Russia on the other." "It will be over after 14 days, one month maximum." "It will be over before Denmark will get involved." "Therefore this discussion about war... ..and how we must defend ourselves is irrelevant." "Of course, he is absolutely right." "A war in our time is too expensive, and may only last a month." "It is as Bismark said "A modern war requires three things money, money money." "That is to say, that if France, or Russia makes war... ..it will be over quickly." "Yes, why should they waste time and effort in Denmark." "In my opinion, Jacob has a clear sight for the essential policy." "Well Jacob is in possession of an unusual maturity." "He'll be somebody someday that's for sure." "Now, I really must leave now." "Why are you in a hurry?" "Stay a little longer." "Unfortunately, duty calls.... ...ladies...farewell." "Work is of course above all..... ...but come back as soon as you can." "Now I will follow you out to your car." "You are so clever.... ...and you are sweet." "It's a letter for Father" "It's from the pharmacy" "Oh Vibeke.." "I thought you were hurt" "Ah..fooled you." "Vibeke stop!" "Oh..." "leave her she's young" "It's from Carl Anton" "He wants me to go down there for some fishing" "When are you going?" "Going...going where?" "To Skibe...with Anton" "I can't run off to Skibe... ..and leave the rest of you here alone at Reden" "Why Not?" "Well, suppose robbers should break in here to night?" "...or even tramps." "Well I think you should go.." "Trout fishing is one of the things you like the most." "I won't hear of it..." "When does he want you to go?" "Right away.." "...but I tell you I'm not going!" "and that's an end to it!" "Where are you running to?" "We are just off to play a game of tennis." "Well." "I've go some news your father is going to go fishing in Skibe." "And, I am not feeling very well.... ...we shall have to return home also." "Well, we are not going." "Why can't we stay here?" "Because you can't." "Why not?" "You can't." "We can look after ourselves." "What would people say?" "What difference does it make what people say" "I'm sure father would agree." "we are not going back to Nybro." "We will ask him." "He will not like you staying here alone." "Vibeke and Jacob can stay here." "And, what will people say?" "People have already talked so much about us.." "...a little more gossip won't hurt." "Good riddance.." "They're gone... ..we are rid of them." "Jacob..." "Jacob" "Hurry..hurry Jacob." "Oh no!" "It's hopeless" "What are you doing?" "It's so dull when you sleep." "You can sleep too." "I'm not tired." "What do you want to do?" "Kiss you." "Don't you dare." "Oh it's you.." "What do you want?" "To get in bed?" "Are you crazy?" "Get out!" "Are you scared?" "That's funny.." "I was a little afraid too." "But I remembered that you were across the hall." "Then I wasn't afraid." "Behave." "Oh yes." "Now we are lying here as if we were married." "We will be married..." "one day." "Yes, if you don't deceive me." "Deceive you.." "What do you mean?" "Find someone else." "Never." "Goodnight." "I like you very much." "I like you too." "Since we... ..since we are to be married.." "Can't we just do it now?" "You know..." "right now." "Do what?" "what people do when they are married." "Now you can get out.." "You promised to behave!" "Vibeke, you mustn't be angry." "I was only asking I haven't done anything" "What are you thinking about?" "You are not all there." "Jacob?" "Jacob, are you crying?" "Are you really crying?" "Jacob..you really are." "Why are you crying?" "I thought you were pretending." "Jacob, What are you crying for?" "Nobody cares for me." "Oh nonsense.." "there are many people care for you." "Since mother died.." "I have never really been happy." "Do you really want it so much?" "Yes" "We might have a child." "If that happened..." "I'ld naturally marry you." "..right away." "If you promise not to tell anyone.." "...then.." "...you may." "Duddi Duddi mustn't see us... ..but I don't want her to be alone." "It may upset her." "You are right." "No, don't put her on the floor.." "...Duddi will get cold." "Did it hurt?" "No" "Vibeke... ..that was good." "Thanks.." "...very much" "Thank you." "Was it really that good?" "No, maybe it wasn't but it was our first time." "Gradually it will get better and better." "It was ugly." "Ugly?" "Yes.." "..ugly and disgusting" "No.." "Vibeke, it's not.." "...it's beautiful." "It's vile." "Just think, that children are made that way that all grown ups do a thing like that." "The whole things repulsive... ..and the places it happens." "Jacob... ..there is something I want to tell you." "something I have never told anyone... ..and that I will never tell anyone... but you." "That..." "That day I went to get Duddi.." "You remember.." "I  I thought mother was out.." "..and father was in Skibe." "and... ..I thought that I was alone." "I looked through the window.." "...it was raining and I coudn't see," "I heard a noise.." "..I was scared really scared." "But then, it was quiet." "I thought it was nothing." "Just my imagination." "Then, I heard it again." "and then.." "...I realised what was going on" "What?" "Mother and Morgensen." "My own mother, and Morgensen." "It was awful." "Poor Duddi." "Little Duddi.." "She was lying underneath all the time." "It was disgusting." "Poor little Duddi." "Now you better go." "I'm glad I caught you before you left Vibeke." "May I wish you Good luck with your studies, at your new school." "Thanks" "It is so good of Mr Morgensen to drive you an your mother." "Shall we go." "Hansigne!" "Hansigne!" "Oh, it's you herr Petersen" "Did you want something?" "I'ld just like to lie down besides you." "all right Herr Petersen.." "I couldn't sleep in my room." "I'll turn out the lamp then." "Overhead" "Do you want me to leave mine on?" "No, let's get it off." "Someone there?" "Yes.." "..It's me Hansigne." "What do you want?" "You alone?" "What's it to you.." "Scram!" "Ah..you have a visitor." "Get out of here you fool!" "Don't you think it.... ...it would be more reasonable if you left." "Come on now, get out.." "...before Mrs Walins comes." "who do you think you are anyhow.." "...stupid fool!" "Who's that?" "Who do you mean?" "That fellow." "Oh, that's just Knud." "Is he your sweetheart?" "I haven't got a sweetheart." "You are my first." "I've had sweethearts in the past But a long time ago quite a long time.." "...and none as nice as you." "Not so fast Herr Petersen." "Wait a minute." "There's another way to do it." "The tea is cold, bring some hot." "It is a very fine day today." "Yes, it is very nice, today." "Oh, by the way Hansigne.." "...what was that noise last night?" "I hope madam will excuse me..." "I bumped into the washstand." "It was too bad.." "I had a migraine," "..and just dropped off to sleep" "Did you hear anything?" "No..." "I didn't hear a thing." "You must excuse me..." "I have a lot to do this morning.." "I have some ladies coming for morning tea." "You finish your breakfast." "Aunt Lily.." "I want to thank you for all your kindness." "Oh, don't mention it." "we are happy to have you stay." "Thanks." "Excuse me, I didn't realise you had already undressed." "I forgot to put the soap out." "Come on.." "we must be quick." "Leave our trousers on, we don't have time....hurry." "Now, the school holiday is over." "We will be one less for breakfast tomorrow." "Yes, Hansigne told me." "Oh." "The young gentleman is returning to Copenhagen." "Yeah.." "He is such a pleasant young man." "Yeah.." "And he likes vede bread." "Yeah.." "He stayed longer this summer." "Yeah.." "He must have enjoyed himself." "Yeah" "A young lady perhaps?" "Yeah!" "Well, I must get back to my laundry." "Ah, Jens..." "Remember he is leaving today." "Yes." "Don't forget to take his suitcase to the station." "The train leaves at noon.." "we don't want to miss it." "Understand?" "Yes!" "What did I said?" "You said, the train leaves at noon... take the suitcase don't miss it." "Thank you." "Are you going now?" "Yes." "Then I'd better say goodbye to you now.." "..I can't very well say it in front of the others." "Goodbye, Jacob." "I'm sorry you are going." "I'm sorry too... ..but... ..I'll back again next year." "That's a long time." "Good Bye." "Ah..." "Master Peterson.." "..Have a safe journey." "It has been nice having you here." "Thank you...thank you.." "..very much." "Farewell Jacob." "Safe journey." "Thank you." "Goodbye." "So,..." "I hope you enjoyed your stay." "Yes, very much." "I hope you didn't find it too boring." "I haven't been at least bit bored." "Nothing ever happens, in Nybro." "...that I've noticed" "Lots do." "For example, what happened while you were here." "Well..." "I had a wonderful time at the beach.." "..then there was the trip to Reden... ..and then there was the company.." "If you mean that sort of thing... ..then of course you can say that, things happen." "How is it, you are here?" "They gave me time off to say goodbye." "mother arranged it." "So we came this far." "Yes we came this far." "We are moving on when we are done here." "Yes, you can drive away when you are done here." "You haven't seen it." "Seen what?" "You really haven't noticed?" "You have a new hairdo?" "No, I leave that to mama .further down." "The gold piece I gave you you have it on a chain." "Look on the back of it." "Vibeke and Jacob for eternity." "Safe journey, and don't forget to mention me to your father." "My case!" "Are you going all the way?" "Yes" "Have you been visiting family in Nybro?" "Yes, I have been staying with my sister and brother in law." "Well, you're a fesh one." "Tickets please." "Now you can stop that!" "And I thought you were a gentleman." "What are you trying to do?" "You know what I want." "Suppose the conductor comes." "He's been." "You can't do it on the railway." "Don't worry not a soul will know if we keep quiet." "You sure." "Welcome back." "Did you have a good time?" "You look well." "You didn't write much but I took that as a good sign." "May I hold your arm." "You've really grown.." "..Jacob, as a matter of fact, there is quite a noticable difference in you." "A good tan.." "...and no dark rings under your eyes." "Let's get you home." "You must be hungry." "especially after, your long journey." "You will want to eat right away." "No thanks, I think I will wash up first." "Yes, I'll see you at dinner." "Good day Hier Peters" "Welcome home."
