"But that wife of his!" "She does nothing but water the flowers." "But they can afford it, so why not?" "You can't..." "Wait until the Social Democrats get in." "Things will change then!" "Let's go to the park, there's more space there." "Lasse!" "Lasse!" " Not too bad, thanks for asking." " I hope you're better soon." "Thank you." " Hi, Granddad!" " So, you come to visit an old man?" " Where's Dad and the others?" " Over there." "Here he is!" "Hello!" "Turn round!" "I'm heading over to the bridge." "There's a pastry shop over there." "Verner knows it." "Eva, darling..."

"I don't want to leave." "I don't want to leave!" "This world isn't made for me." "It's not made for lonely people." "Do you hear me?" "This world isn't made for lonely people."

" Watch out, then." "Am I doing all right?" "More?" "There are 200,000 birds in this town." "And I only know seven." " Get a move on then!" " You just have to be tough." "Cheers."

" Anyone special?" " No." "I wanted to." "I don't know why I didn't." "Everyone says that." "Me too." "I was there an hour, waiting for him." "But when he came, I didn't talk to him." "And when he came towards me, I turned away." "Then he left." "Too bad." ""Fortunately, your problem isn't unusual." "We all do things we regret." ""Ask yourself what you want, and do it." ""Then you'll know if you're unhappy for a reason."" " That's just the way it is." " Maybe..." "Too bad you didn't talk to him." " It just didn't happen." " Say you don't get another chance?" "What do you want me to tell her?" "I want to talk to her, I just can't." "Tell him I wanted to say hi, but... didn't." "I don't want to admit it." "It feels silly." "Why not?" "I don't want to admit that I..." " I'll tell her." " No!" "No!" " You live up there?" " Yes, but on the courtyard side." "Is Pär here?" "Pär!" "You have a visitor!" " That's not on." " What?"

" Pretty big." "This is my dad's fishing spot." "Once he caught 18 pike here." "I bet he'll ask your dad to come and fish here." " My Dad doesn't like fishing." " He doesn't?"

"A farmer and a farm hand are sat in the kitchen, getting ready to eat breakfast, porridge and milk." "Then..." "Let me see..." "Yeah, the farmer... opened the window and threw out the porridge." "The farm hand saw that, took the milk and threw it out too." ""What on earth are you doing?" says the farmer." ""I thought we were going to have a picnic."" "This is very good."

"They're supposed to be cold." " Even in the country." " If you have a basement..." "Who's sleeping in the tent?" "The ones with the jumpers?" " Wine..." "It's not my strong point." " It's a question of temperature." "Watch out!" "As I said, there's nothing wrong with the basement." "Ice cold!" "But we can always give it a try." " Is it plugged in?" " Yes." "Didn't it light up?" "I'll turn the plug around." " Did it light up now?" " No." "Shit!" "Do you want coffee?" "I was going to set off some fireworks." " Should I do it now?" " Go ahead."

"You have to be careful." "It might be damp." " I saved it from New Year." " Light it." " Oh, I didn't see anything." " Do another!" "No, I only had one." "You can't watch from in there!" "John, did you see it?" " EIsa?" " Yes." "I want to make a speech." "And if I got to make that speech, it would be to everyone on earth." "All of humanity!" "I'd say that the whole world's just full of bastards." "Do you hear me?" "Bastards!" "EIsa, I've wasted 45 years of my life." " Are you cold?" " No, it's nice." "And my daughter..." "I want her out of here - now!" "You won't turn her into a country bumpkin!" "She's going to be rich!" "Rich!" "Rich!" "Rich!" "You hear me?" "She's going to be rich!" "She won't have to kiss other people's arses like I've had to." "Wasting her life on a load of bullshit!" "She's going to have money!" "Money!" "Money!" "Money!"

" Does everyone have their hats?" " Yes!" "Whose is this one, then?" "That John, he's such a loudmouth." "I think we're all a little that way." "Weren't you a little hard on him?" "I'll treat him to a drink later." "Do you think it's John's hat?" "One of those little pointy ones." " BertiI!" "Where are you?" " Here, out on the spit." "John!" " John!" " No!" "This way, then." "Arne!" "Where have they been?" "Fishing, I think." "Lasse, here's the rocket!"
