"There will come a better time with flowers waking and the days of summer growing" "Then's the time to run in fields and walk in joys and most of all for ungrown boys." "Halldór Laxness" "It's an easy test with some small puzzles and questions." "I don't want to do this." "You will do what I tell you." "You won't leave this room until you have taken the test." "Then you'll have some money." "Daníel, come see me in my office." "(Feet going down stairs)" "Yes, she was very drunk." "She stopped by here before heading for the mountains." "Exactly." "I find it so irresponsible of her to just disappear." "Leaving me alone here." "We're all quite worried about her." "Especially me." "Speaking of which, we just opened our camping grounds and you might want to inform travellers that they..." "Oh, no no..." "Yes..." "Exactly." "Thank you for that." "Bye." "What?" "The police is sending a searching party." "Georg..." "I want to apologize for everything." "How I've treated you lately." "I see." "What you've done for me is so...selfless and I..." "You've been so incredibly..." ""Noble" is perhaps the word you're looking for." "Yes, that's it." "I also want you to know that I owe you a..." "lifelong debt." "Yes." "I know this hasn't been easy for you..." "No Daníel." "This is a serious problem." "But as long as you do as I tell you, it'll work out." "Yes hello, how big are the zeppelins under there?" "Uhh..." "I think those are 44 inch tyres." "OK." "Do you use those when you drive on glaciers?" "No, just for rescue operations." "When I order a pizza it's 16 inches but you have 44." "You have like, 9 inches..." "9 pizzas under there." "I guess so." "Do we need to talk about it?" "No, didn't think so." "Is there a center differential?" "Automatic transmission?" "6 gears forward, 1 reverse?" "I really don't know much about jeeps." "OK." "Search  Rescue, does it pay well?" "This is volunteer work." "Oh, OK." "(Hushed voices)" "How do you do." "I'm Georg Bjarnfreðarson." "acting hotel manager." "Hello." "I reported her disappearance." "Roughly whereabouts did you see her head off?" "The night before Saturday I awoke just before 3 o'clock to a noise in the kitchen." "Later I hear sounds coming from outside, so I look out the window where I see Guðbjörg, who's clearly intoxicated." "She's...teetering to and fro but suddenly she turns and heads up that ridge, singing loudly as she goes." "Up that ridge, you say?" "I wasn't alarmed, I didn't think this was unusual as I knew that Gugga was always in high "spirits"." "Gugga, right." "Fond of the bottle, as they say here." "I would gladly accompany you, but sadly I cannot, as I'm bound to the hotel." "But..." "Daníel!" "Daníel is a good man and he will happily join you." "Great." "Always good to have a doctor with you." "Well, he never did finish his studies." "But if you need more men, then he should be..." "(Angelic music playing)" "Well, weren't you happy with your birthday?" "Yes, it was just fine." "Did you get the good cuts?" "Yes." "I asked the cook to slip you the best cuts." "Oh, thanks for that." "It's the least I could... (Police in background) Well, there he comes." "Ólafur, I'm taking part in the search for this poor drunken woman." "I leave you in charge of the hotel." "You can count on the man." "(Loud dance music playing)" "Óli!" "Hey." "(Turns off music)" "How are you?" "Smash it." "I'm fine." "Is Georg around?" "No, everyone went for a walk." "I was made hotel manager." "He was gonna give me some money when I finished this." "OK." "What is it?" "Some emotional crap." "Oh." "So, how much do you want?" "Just 3000, or such." "I'm taking the girlfriend out for dinner." "Nice." "Shouldn't I just write a check for you?" "A check?" "Yeah." "Let's make it 10000." "Then you can be a little grand about it." "Sure." "It's also easier to write." "You can have some red wine with it and stuff." "I can?" "I'm 36 years old, I know how to treat babes." "Hey!" "We're all alone here!" "OK." "How about we celebrate that?" "Have some fun?" "How?" "(Sounds of furniture being roughly moved around)" "(Ball bouncing)" "Ow!" "Hey!" "You can't throw for shit!" "You get a prize." "Ouch!" "Are you thirsty?" "Cola?" "Sure." "Race ya?" "OK, sure." "Bottoms up." "Last one to drink is a muskox. 1, 2 and..." "(Heavy breathing)" "Say, is anything wrong?" "No, I'm just in a bad..." "Yes, this can be straining." "I've been in many searches and usually people turn up safe and sound." "Yes." "She probably just went into town, you'll see." "(Cheerful laughter)" "I'm just teasing with you." "It tickles!" "What are you doing?" "Oh, I'm sorry I'm..." "It's a reflex I have, I am trained in self-defense." "You know self-defense?" "You could say I have incapacitated a few." "Hey, come here!" "Is your mom really ill?" "No, it's a hysterectomy." "Oh, OK." "She's gonna lose all desires, you know." "Desire?" "Yeah...whatever." "Say, have you gotten to, you know, pinch the buns?" "On my mom?" "No no no, on your girlfriend." "No." "Not yet, anyway." "(Voice from reception) Hello?" "We're in here!" "Hi." "Hi." "I'm going to the toilet." "OK." "What's your name?" "His name is Jói." "Is he your little brother?" "Uhh, no." "He's my son." "OK." "How old are you?" "Nineteen." "Shall we get going?" "Sure." "It was nice meeting you." "Sure." "Later, Óli." "Have a good time." "Likewise." "(Distant laughter) I'm joking with you." "But then Stalin says:" "(How should I know?" "I've never been to Minsk!" ")" "Georg..." "Leave me alone." "But I..." "Sergeant Ebenezer is now your superior." "Yes I know but..." "Go away." "Yes, we'll talk later." "Sergeant Ebenezer." "Does he need to have stuff explained to him?" "(Imitates Daníel) Georg, what shall I do?" "Georg, who's my boss?" "Do you want a bite, my son?" "No, I'm not hungry." "We can't have you passing out up here from starvation." "Were you and Guðbjörg close?" "Yeah...no." "Not really." "Not like that, I mean." "I didn't mean like that." "Well, she's my boss, you know." "I understand, don't worry." "No need to go further." "And he said:(There are three kinds of Swedes.)" "(Those that can count, and those that can't.)" "You see, he says three kinds, but only names two." "Oh yeah." "Sweden has a big regional difference for humour." "In southern Sweden it's much lighter." "There was this teacher from Umeå, it's up north so it's always cold there." "He told me a story of a friend of his, which had grown tired of life and wanted to kill himself." "Which isn't that funny, but bear with me." "He lay down on the railway tracks and intended for the train to run over him." "But because the train schedules are so bad the train never came." "He froze to death." "(Both laugh)" "Them Swedes, man." "Huh?" "They're really special." "Three types of them." "(Telephone rings)" "Hello?" "Óli?" "Hi, it's Hannes." "Yes?" "Your father." "Oh, hello!" "About that payment you made." "Wasn't it from your account?" "Yes...no." "The bank refused the check." "You're not the account's caretaker." "I know what you're saying, I just got an advance..." "I need that money, I'm paying a mortgage here." "Yes, that must be..." "The wife's going crazy." "It must be a glitch in the banking system." "You'll have to fix this." "The money is almost there." "People need to be able to count on you, my boy." "You can count on me, I'll get it fixed." "When can I expect this?" "I need it this week." "I can pay you in a week." "This week, Óli!" "This week!" "Not in a week!" "OK, no problem." "Then it's agreed." "OK." "We agree on this dad." "Yes, bye." "(Knocking on door)" "Good day, my name is Ólafur Ragnar Hannesson." "Yes." "Aren't you comfortable here?" "Sure." "I can just tell that you want to relax a bit and have a good time in a jacuzzi." "What?" "You've heard of travel toilets?" "This here is similar." "Just set it up and you can be anywhere in a sauna." "Are you going between rooms here and selling this?" "Yes." "Who let you into the hotel?" "Nobody, I'm the hotel manager here." "I found something here." "A liquor bottle." "Did she have a bottle when she disappeared?" "I think so." "Animals love me." "Then you're thinking:" "(I forgot to turn it on.)" "That's not a problem." "The switch is back here..." "Could you turn it on?" "See, just turned it on and it's already steaming hot." "Pass me a book or something." "What can be better than this?" "You just feel the extra weight sliding off of you." "Isn't it uncomfortable to be clothed in that thing?" "No, I'm just wearing them for demonstration." "Well no thanks." "I'm not interested in this thing." "Are you sure?" "Yes, but good luck with it." "(Dog barks)" "There's something here!" "She's alive." "Where's the doctor?" "Daníel!" "This is Ebbi from Reykhólar." "We need a helicopter..." "Jens, do you have the coordinates?" "65, 33. 48. 22 06. 21." "(Car approaches)" "I don't believe this!" "Is there no-one here?" "Hello?" "(Rings bell)" "I'm here." "Yes...we're here from Intrum." "We have a reservation." "A reservation, you say?" "OK." "How many are you?" "13." "OK." "You look familiar to me." "No, I'm Magnús." "I've never set foot into Intrum." "You just grab your keys here and pick your rooms." "Can we help you somehow?" "What do you mean?" "No, it's just..." "No, I'm good." "Can we get anything to eat around here?" "Now?" "Yeah, just lunch." "Uhh...all the staff went for a walk, so..." "After 5 would be good." "The staff went for a walk?" "Well, I'm an employee here." "I'm acting hotel manager." "I'm Ólafur Rag..." "Magnús." "(Sound of helicopter)" "Ready and lift!" "Not a word to anyone." "Not a single word." "Well, mister hotel manager, can I get you a drink?" "Sure, that's not a bad idea." "What can I get you?" "Well, what have you got?" "I have coffee, I have beer, I have cognac..." "I wouldn't turn down a cold one about now." "Bring up an ice cold one for the man." "No problem mister hotel manager, anything for you." "Say, I can't reach the pump, mister hotel director." "Won't you take a bottled beer instead then?" "Yes, that'll do quite nicely." "Yes." "I want to tell you, mister hotel director, that it is a true privilege to be working with you." "You are a true gentleman yourself." "Mmmmm...it's like I have arrived in Corona." "Wait, am I seeing things?" "Is that a cigar box there?" "Yes, mister hotel director, it most certainly is." "I sure wouldn't turn down a good cigar about now." "(Loud music playing)" "(Smoke alarm goes off)" "(Frantic shouts and screams)" "What the hell is going on in here?" "How are you?" "Did you have a fun walk?" "A walk?" "We were conducting a search, Ólafur!" "Oh OK." "Was it fun?" "Subtitles:" "Árni Víkingur Hafsteinsson"
