"DR TV-Drama presents" "BETTER TIMES - a Family Saga by Stig Thorsboe" "Part 4" "Hello!" "Ida?" " Ida?" "Have we given birth?" " Yes, to twins." " You can wake up, Daddy's home." " Stop it." "He's just settled down." "Could this be Mrs Nielsen?" "Then one may kiss you." "No, only my husband." "I have something for you." " A silver frame?" " They didn't have gold." "Aarhus is a provincial town." "Imagine that you've been able to stand me for 5 months." "It's only because you're home so seldom." "What kind of time is this to go to bed?" "It's only 9." "I thought I could feel something." "It was nothing." "I don't want to give birth until I've graduated." "How did it go in Jutland?" "I missed you." "I consoled myself with the fact that I don't work for my father anymore." " He came by here this afternoon." " Has my father been here?" "He came to give us a telephone." "It's already connected." "We're not having his telephone." "How could you accept it?" "You returned his furniture." " Then why did he give us a phone?" " So I can call home." " He also wants to know how I am." " What's it got to do with him?" "You can't go on being enemies." "He could do without me." "I can do without him!" "But I can't." "He's our child's grandfather!" " He invited us to dinner tomorrow." " I'm not going." " Then I'll go myself." " Yes, do that." "Come here..." "Come now." " You must be tired." " I'm not tired." "No, but that doesn't mean you can't go to bed." " You forgot your lunch, Dad." " Just put it there." "Damn it!" "Now I can start all over." "It would help with fewer interruptions." "From, you've given Ruth the wrong resistor again." "This is a ten-ohm." "That's not a 10 ohm." "I know your eyesight is weak, but they're all colour-coded." " No one touches those shelves." " We're paid on piece rates." "It costs us money to run in here." "At least give us the right components." "Hi, Palle." " Why don't you buy some glasses?" " Nothing's wrong with my eyes." "It's the head, Palle, the head." "I'm used to bricks and mortar." "Let's face it." "I'm too old to change jobs." "You just have to learn the ropes." "These things take time." "It's natural." "In a couple of months you'll be able to find it all in your sleep." "You better be on your way." "Palle..." "Thanks." "Thanks for my lunch box." "Maybe we could find time to eat lunch together." "Not today." "I'm buying myself a moped." "One of those small motorcycles." "They call them an arse-pusher." "Because the motor's in the back." "We could all use one of those." "A little kick in the arse." " Are you looking for someone?" " Miss Nielsen, if she's here." " I don't think she is." " Well, hello." "Hello." "I had to deliver something to my father." "I didn't want to leave without saying thanks, because you got him a job." "That's the third time you've thanked me." "How's it going with the acting?" " You didn't talk about it with Daddy." " With your father?" "No." "My parents found out I want to get into the acting school." "They don't want me to be an actress." "They don't want me to be an actress." "But I went to the try-out, anyway." "Once I get in, they can't do anything." "I get the answer in a day or two." " I'm sure it went well." " You always think the best about me." "Is it a chronic illness you have?" " No, I don't think the best." " You don't?" "Yes..." "Yes, yes..." "Yes." "I have to deliver this." "Congratulations with your exam." "Ida said you got a top grade." "It was only my BA." "I was quite lucky." " And a free room at the best hall." " I probably won't be living there." "You can't live with your father your whole life." "If you move in there, I'll come visit you." "... on account of Liberation Day." "And you said to me: "You must be mad."" "They've lit the candles." "Now we have to hear the obligatory lecture about the occupation." "It's not that bad, is it?" "My father became a patriot two days before the war ended." " I don't believe that." " You don't believe it?" "I popped into his office one day when I was 15, thinking he was alone." "He sat drinking cognac with a German officer." " Lots of people talked with them." " Okay." "We'll ask him this evening." " Erik, you promised to be nice." " Easy now." "We must do away with the dangerous illusion that on April 9, 1940..." " Welcome." "It's nice to see you." " I spoke with my parents today." " Be sure and say hello from us." " Hello, Erik." "Hi, Father." "I thought the electricity was out, with all those candles." "Well, Ida." "You're almost there." "When is the written exam?" "On Monday." " It'll be fine." " He's sure you'll get top grades." "You ought to begin thinking about getting your General Certificate." "Who, me?" "I'm much too dumb." " You did better than me in mid-school." " I couldn't have done worse." "Couldn't we act like adults, just for once?" "I was thinking if you might want to join us again." "Have Copenhagen as your district?" "You already know the dealers." " You wouldn't have to travel as much." " That doesn't bother me." "Maybe Ida would like to have you around, when the big day comes." "That would be nice." "But it's Erik's decision, of course." "Okay, I will." "If you begin making televisions." " Here we go again." " Working for Wicon suits me fine." "Father wants to make televisions but the time isn't ripe." " There's that finance minister, too." " His name is Thorkild Kristensen." "Father says he'll never approve it." "Isn't that right, Kaj Holger?" "All political parties are invited to see the television studio." " The Liberals haven't been there." " They will be." "They'll be shown a film about their own prime minister, Erik Eriksen." "Once they see themselves on the screen, they'll be sold." "Erik, it's a question of economics." "No one sensible will start making televisions now." " Then it's just the thing for you, Erik." " Yes, why not?" "Go start your own television factory." "That's something I'd like to see." "Meyer!" "Well, here's a rare guest." "On your way back into the fold?" "I'd like a word with you." "If you have the time." "Come on up." "It must be here somewhere..." "Aha!" "Your father and me, 21 years ago." "We looked damned good in those days." "It used to be a carpentry workshop." "Two small rooms." "That's where we started Bella." "We made some good radios there." "I can see the place before me every time I smell linseed oil..." "God, we had a car, too." "You've got to see our car." "What the hell?" "I thought they'd been thrown out long ago." " Drawings for an old radio?" " No, it's..." "Jesus!" "I can see it's from 1941." "We listened to the BBC, until our ears fell off." "But then the Germans jammed their broadcasts." "Folks were sticking frame-aerials together, so I made one of those." "A compact little devil." "The reception was perfectly clear." "Oh, my..." "What would it take to start up today?" " Denmark has 20 radio factories." " But none of them make televisions." " And for a good reason." " You know it's coming as well as I do." " Won't you help me?" " Start a factory again?" "No." " What about that drawing?" " We have plenty of other work." "We have enough trouble making the FM-band work properly." "I can understand why your dad won't waste money on television." " He did well during the war." " What a lot of nonsense." "You don't know what happened after you left." "I think he made lots of money." "You think your father worked with the Germans?" "He helped me get to Sweden." "It was a convenient way to get rid of a partner named Meyer." "Erik, it's been a pleasure working with you on our television." "But I have to tell you we can't see each other anymore  if you keep talking about your father like that." "Do we understand each other?" " Oops, Emma, I'm sorry." " That's okay." "I was almost finished." " We're having rice pudding." " We're having meat balls." "You social democrats are no better." "It's just the usual fear of communism." " Go see an eye doctor." " I see what's happening just fine." " You want Stalin to burn it all down." " Smells like he's already been here." " You only had to do one thing, Dad." " Oh, no." "The meat balls." "Bon appetit!" "Do you know what I've noticed?" "No men have visited her in a long time." "That's why she's hysterical." "No men have visited her in a long time." "That's why she's hysterical." " Will you take potatoes and gravy?" " Yes." "How about the pickles?" " What a mess I've made." " It's your home, too." " Look at all those books." " Just move them." "I'm hungry." " There's no room left for you." " Let's just eat." "You should have the flat to yourself." "And I should move into the hall." " What did you say?" " I'm 24 and I still live at home." " I'm a burden on you." " A burden on me?" "Listen, my boy." "You're not a burden on me." "And let it never be said   that you were thrown out of your home!" "That's what happened to me." "That's not going to happen here..." "Let me finish speaking!" "You manage university and a full-time job." "Isn't it okay then to live with your dad and be spoiled a bit?" "I won't discuss it anymore." "Haven't you bought any pickles?" "Yes, they're right there." "You look wonderful." "Are we in a bad mood today?" "Well..." "Gosh." "I'm really sorry to hear it." "I knew it the moment I saw those sour old men in the first row." " They're off." " This doesn't interest you?" " They say that you should try again." " I don't want to study there at all." " Don't let them do this to you." " I said I don't want..." "Oh, hell!" "Can't anyone wake up that horse?" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Jesus!" "This looks really promising for tomorrow's race." "Yes!" " The show-off!" " Isn't that...?" " Otto Schøler." " The manager of the Revue Theatre." "Can't you introduce me?" "If you're interested in real acting, then stay away from Otto Schøler." " Lunch?" " Dinner would be better." "Today's not so good." "It's my wife's birthday." "Does she know you're here?" "Yes, more or less." "I have a better idea." " Tomorrow evening." " Don't you have to perform?" "Yes." "Come to me at the theatre at seven." "I always give a better performance when I've just been with you." " I mean it." " I don't doubt it at all." "Oh, there he is!" "Introduce me!" "Talk to him." "Don't you know his reputation with women?" "Is it worse than yours?" "Come on!" " Not a chance in hell." " I'm driving." "No, watch out!" "Mind the gears." " Do you even have a license?" " More or less." "Watch out, that's reverse." "Watch out!" " Nothing happened." " You did it on purpose!" " For Christ's sake!" " What the hell are you doing?" " It wasn't me." " Are you a complete imbecile?" " You drive just like you act." " Pardon me?" "How can you let a woman drive?" "Science has proven they can't." "Oh, I'm sorry." "Did I do that?" "I'm terribly, terribly, terribly sorry." " Pardon me." "Søs Nielsen." " Schøler." " Pardon me?" " Otto Schøler." "Otto Schøler...?" "Really?" "Very well done, Ida, I must say." "What were you asked about?" "Goethe." "So, what's next?" "I'm sure that'll be no problem for you." "I have the greatest regard for you." "You know that." "Goodbye, my girl." "Now she has also passed her German exam." "It's late." "Have you forgotten we have a telephone?" "I thought it was only to be used when you talk with my father." "Congratulations." "I heard how well you did in German." " My father called home, boasting." " Is that where you've been?" "Yes, for a while, this afternoon before I came home." "Then, where were you this evening?" "Hey, that's enough." " I've been looking at accommodations." " Accommodations?" "For what?" " My factory." " Your what?" "My television factory." "Ours." "I only need two small rooms." "The bank will allow an overdraft if they get a security guarantee." " Your mother's money." " They're ready to put up 50,000." "I know that's a lot of money." " Are you going to borrow 50,000?" " When the government says "go"." "I can feel this is the right thing to do." "I can really feel it." "Why does it always have to move so fast?" "Can't we have our baby   without you having to give up your work, rent a space and borrow money?" " Do you prefer a traveling salesman?" " Your dad offered you a job at Bella." "My father!" "If I wait for him, I'll be waiting the rest of my life." " You're exactly like him." " What do you mean?" "You don't believe in me, either." "That's not true." "I do." "I'm just asking why it has to be just now." "Okay, fine." "Let's forget it." " I'm sleeping in the living room." " Don't be so daft, Erik." "Come here." "I can't breathe in here." "I can't breathe in here." "Erik!" " See, this is a proper theatre." " It's really small." " What the hell do you know about that?" " The stage, I mean." "It's large enough to make folks enjoy themselves." "The stage, that is." "On opening night, I always go out in the street." "If I can hear the audience out there, I know the show's a success." "Tell me." "What the hell made you try out for the Royal Theatre?" " I studied with Gabriel Holm." " You did?" "The old faggot panics when he sees a woman with erotic magnetism." "What did you entertain them with at the try-out?" " Shakespeare." " You're kidding!" "Who the hell is he?" " I played Ophelia in Hamlet." " Hamlet..." "Hamlet..." "Oh, him!" ""To be or not to be..."" "You have talent." " Are you nervous?" " I'm queasy." " In an hour it's all over." " I was totally blank this morning." "I re-read the syllabus." "Mediaeval folk ballads." "I'm sure that's what they'll ask you about." " Well, let's get it over with." " Just run on ahead." "I just have a little errand." "You still have half an hour." " Can't it wait?" " I have to tell them by noon." "I thought you'd put all that on hold." " I just have to go by the Radio House." " And?" "I'll never find workshop space as good as this." "I'm not going to throw myself into anything rash." "Do what you like." "I don't feel like arguing with you." "I'll be standing here with your graduation cap when you come out." " Pardon me." "Where are you going?" " To see Mr Petersen." "Take a seat." " Just look at that!" " I'm going to lunch, Miss Toft." "My daughter-in-law has her last exam today, so fetch me if she calls." "Have you seen this, sir?" "Your daughter's in it." "I'm sure it came as no surprise to you, but it did to us." "May I borrow that magazine a moment?" "Please." "Schøler's Girls" "Would you please send my daughter in?" " I'm a little busy." " You're not the only one." " There's Mr Petersen." " Should we go to my office?" " No, I'm busy." "Any news?" " You can say that again." " Did the Liberals have a look?" " Yes." "The prime minister liked seeing himself on television." "He forgot to bring his finance minister." "But we just received his answer." "An emphatic no to television in Denmark." "Did you say your name was Erik Nielsen?" "It's from some school." "I have to run." "My wife." "Say that I'm on my way." "You better say it yourself." "It's the headmaster..." "Excuse me." "Ida Nielsen?" "It's your son." " Boy, is he little." " He's so sweet." " I was so angry when you left." " I'm sorry." "I took the stairs much too fast." "My body was rumbling inside while I was waiting." " Then it was my turn." "Folk ballads!" " I told you!" "I knew exactly what to say." " Then the water broke." " It did?" " Really?" " Right onto the examiner's shoes." "What's more natural than one's water breaking on someone's shoes?" "He took it well." " So you didn't finish your exam?" " Of course not." "They carried me out to the ambulance on a desk." "They weren't enough to carry me, so the headmaster had to assist." "He kept saying: "It's going to be all right, Miss Nørregaard."" "He was just about to pass out the whole time." "I love you." " He told me his name." " What is it?" " Bo." " Bo?" " Bo Nielsen, come to Daddy." " Yes." "Over to Daddy." "Yes...!" "Will he inherit a television factory?" "Not this time around." "Come." "Here, take this." " Finished peeing?" " Yes." " Gosh, is he sweet." " Yes, he's very sweet." "May I...?" "Erik and I keep looking at him." "We can't help it." "Hello, hello." " How's it going with his plans?" " He's put them on hold." "I'm taking it as it comes." "If only he'd make peace with his father." " What about your exam?" " I can't deal with it right now." "You're taking that make-up exam!" "Remember, it's always been your plan to graduate." " You sound just like Erik's father." " So he and I agree, for once." " Back to mummy." " Now, now." "Yes, my darling." " He's tired." " We have to go." "Say goodbye, Emma." " Goodbye, Ida." " Goodbye, Emma." "Thanks for the gift." " You look so fine in that hat." " I came to visit fine folks." " Silly!" "I've missed you two." " You know where we live." "Be sure to get some sleep." "Take care." "Come on, Emma, we've got to run." " Goodbye, Palle." " Goodbye." " What are you doing?" " Washing some dishes." " You're crazy." " I have to be on my way, too." "Why do you have to leave already?" "It's my father." "I don't know about dinner tonight." " I'm sure he can handle it." " There's plenty of food, Palle." "Oh, are you here, too?" "How nice." "I was afraid I'd be alone with the young couple." " So you're supping with us anyway?" " Yes." "I can easily stay." "What role are you playing at the theatre?" "It's a revue, so I play a lot of different roles." " Fantastic." "Otto Schøler hired you." " What did he get in return?" " My talent." " Heard anything from Krag?" " No, not since he left." " Politicians aren't to be trusted." "It's not Krag's fault there's no television." "The social democrats actually like the idea a lot." "Julius Bomholt sees television   as a cultural vehicle for spreading enlightenment." " Yes." "People want entertainment." " I meant more than entertainment." "I read that Jens Otto Krag already divorced his Swedish actress." "Can you explain why that finance minister is so ultra-conservative?" "Apparently, one must import the picture tube to make a set." " This is getting too boring now." " What did you say, Palle?" "The finance minister is afraid of a balance deficit." " We've been contacted by a..." " Is this all you've got?" " A Danish-Argentine?" " He wants to export canned meats." "But, in return, he has to take Danish goods for at least the same amount." "He's coming to Denmark soon." "That's where your television comes into the picture." "To persuade the finance minister, you must have a prospect of export." "Now Mr From is going to show me how social democrats dance." "Turn that down." " You managed to wake Bo." " I'm sorry." " The music's fine." " I've got to see him." "Come on, Palle." "Wait!" "Can you arrange a meeting with that Danish-Argentine?" " A meeting?" " Yes." "When he comes to Denmark." " No, I don't think I..." " Of course you can, Palle." " You haven't moved into the hall?" " No, and I probably won't, either." "My father's not very practical." "He's probably the most impractical person I know." " Why is that your problem?" " Maybe it isn't." "If you're too lenient with parents, you can't control them." "They need training." "Maybe you like being taken advantage of." "No, I'm sorry." "I didn't mean that." "I think it's nice." "None of my friends would keep living at home   if their fathers couldn't make it on their own." " I've never met someone like you." " Me neither." "Like you, that is." "I'm not the way you think I am." "Hey!" "Won't you come to a rehearsal at the theatre one day?" " Yes, I'd really like to." "Thanks." " So that's a deal." " Why are we two still so formal?" " I've been thinking about that, too." "Then why haven't you said so a long time ago?" " Thanks for a nice evening." " You're welcome." "Yes?" "Have you read Politiken?" "No, you never read that newspaper." " They write something about your son." " About Erik?" "Whatever for?" "He's had an interesting meeting with a Danish-Argentine, Ahlman-Olsen." " Does that ring a bell?" " No, I can't say that it does." "A man from the Ministry of Supply was present, too." "Palle From." " I've met him." " So maybe you know everything." "I have no idea what you're talking about." "Ahlman-Olsen wants to buy Danish televisions for 5-10 million." " 5-10 million?" " That's what they say." "What does he know about the Danish radio industry?" "He spoke to Erik?" "Our own trade organization chief was also at the meeting." " Svanberg?" " Yes." "They were at the Radio House." "That's insane." "Who would want to order Danish televisions, sight unseen?" "He was at the Forum exhibition and was very impressed with our television." "The article calls it "a break-through for Danish television"." "Ahlman-Olsen is also having a meeting with Thorkild Tight-belt." "The finance minister won't change his mind because of him." "So you don't think we should prepare an assembly line?" "Bella is in a tough enough position at the moment." "Then I'll..." "How did you actually do during the war, financially?" " Did Bella work for the Wehrmacht?" " Why do you ask that?" "Most factories produced for the Germans." "Nothing strange about that." "Most factories produced for the Germans." "Nothing strange about that." "They also had wishes we couldn't fulfil, technically." "Because you'd gone to Sweden, among other things." "Lucky for you." " Pardon me, if I interrupt." " I'm leaving." " You don't want the paper..." " No, no." "There's something wrong again with some of the new radios." "They just fired Karen." "They what?" "Who fired her?" "Blomkvist." "Because they found defects in the radios." " You know why." " Nonsense." "Because of all your mistakes." "How is Karen going to find a job now?" " What can I do about it?" " Just as I thought." "Not a damn thing." "Yes?" "Is it you, From?" "What's on your mind?" "I heard that Karen Jensen has been sacked." " That there are defects in the radios." " Yes." "I just want to say that..." " I think it's my fault." " Why should it be your fault?" "I gave her the wrong components." "It happened more than once." " The girls have complained before." " Sit down, From." "Thank you." "It's very decent of you to take the blame." " I don't know." "But if it's my..." " Let me be totally honest." "It doesn't matter at all whose fault it is." "I've been wanting to get rid of Karen Jensen for a long time." "I guess you know she's a commie." "She's a traitor." "If it were up to people like her, Denmark wouldn't exist tomorrow." "I've fought the communists since the 30's, so..." " Then you know what I mean." " So I know them." "The union will fight it." "They don't give up." "They'll make a case of it and they'll call in witnesses." "They'll call me in." "Then we'll have problems." "Only if you're dumb enough to take the blame." "Mr Blomkvist, I'm a simple man." "Suddenly you're sitting there, and they force the truth out of you." "Then it gets in the newspapers." "Bad press coverage for Bella, plus demands for compensation." "But maybe MD Nielsen is ready to pay?" "Hello?" "Hi, Palle." "I thought it was my father-in-law." "He hasn't come home yet." "Can I take a message?" "No, wait a second, he's coming." "It's Palle." "Hi, Bo." "Hi, Palle." "What did you say?" "Where did you hear that?" "Since when?" "Oh, my god!" "Palle, you bicycle out here right now and I'll buy you a beer." "Oh, okay..." "Yes, yes." "Thanks, buddy." " What happened?" " The finance minister has surrendered." "They're starting television on October 2nd." "Yes, but that's..." "Congratulations!" " Yes!" " Shhhhh." " Are we going to start up a factory?" " I don't think so." "I just want you to be happy." "I think I'm happiest when you're happy." "I can't run that factory alone." "It won't be now." "It's too rash." "I get worried when you're so reasonable." " You know it doesn't last." " Yes, that's a comfort." " Is Palle coming over?" " He couldn't." " I think he's got his eye on my sister." " Really?" "You're pretty observant." "He's been like that since the first time he saw her." "Jesus..." "Someone ought to warn him." "When we're glad we laugh then our life is child's-play but all too often we see that happiness goes its way the dream of a love that's faithful ends before we know why is happiness so capricious and why is pleasure so brief" "alas because life is often so meaninglessly hard" "why should one trust love and why put on a smile when the smile turns to tears and moments turn to years" "the friend you think cares for you perhaps he'll up and leave you all that he gave his word on and swore, is forgotten." "Why is happiness so capricious and why is pleasure so brief and he whom you love why does he leave like a thief?" "." "Why is happiness so capricious and why is pleasure so brief and he whom you love why does he leave like a thief?" "." " My god, was that beautiful!" " I came in a little early on..." " You were perfect." " Telephone, Mr Schøler." " Ten minutes." " Hi, Palle." " That was fantastic." " No, it can be even better." "No, they were..." "Very chic costumes..." "I mean, beautiful." " Effective costumes." " You can just stay, if you have time." "Yes, I'm not busy." "When is the rehearsal over?" "Six o'clock." " Maybe you want to go out to eat?" " Are you inviting me out, Palle?" "Listen, Søs." "We're dropping that number." "It drags on too long." "We're dropping it." " We're doing what?" " I just spoke to the local authorities." " We're doing what?" " I just spoke to the local authorities." "They're threatening to make fire inspections as long as you're here." " Then I may just as well close." " Who did you speak with?" "The man in charge." "Søndergaard." " Sønder..." " Jørgen Søndergaard." " I'm sorry." "I can't afford to keep you." "Yes, let's continue!" "Come on." "Who's Søndergaard?" "Smile, god dammit." "This isn't Strindberg, is it?" "One of the members of Daddy's lodge." " Hello, Karen." " Hi." "Thank you for speaking with Blomkvist." " Don't mention it." " No, it was kind of you." "One shouldn't have to starve just because one's politically confused." "You've got glasses, I see." "Maybe now we'll get the right components." " Isn't Palle at home?" " No, he had an errand." "Oh, no." "The damned pork." "It burns before you know it." " You can eat with us." " Thanks, Emma, but I'll be okay." " Why do you say that?" " It could be nice." " What nonsense." " But you think so, too." " Well, how about that." " Yes, isn't it nice Meyer dropped by?" " Søs is very angry with you." " She'll get over it." "We've also enjoyed revues there." "But not at my daughter's expense." "Think what you've avoided   by not having children." "I caught the news on the radio." "Yes, about television." "The minister's softening up." "He's only going along with a one-year trial period." "That's not much time." "I've just been bragging about how good our new FM-band is." " How good the reception is now." " Yes, it's got much better." "Not like during the war." "Do you remember the problems we had   getting around the German jamming devices?" " That was pretty ingenious." " You came up with a great aerial." "Do you remember that?" "We used to come to your flat to listen to English radio." "I found the drawings for it a little while ago." "I was going to show Erik some photos from when Kaj and I began." "I'd made two versions." "Do you know where the other one ended up?" "No, I have no idea." "I found it in a drawer in Funder's office." "There was a note written on it." ""To the drafting room." "February 2, 1944."" " But you'd already left for Sweden." " Yes." "Yes I had." "You can't remember why the drawing was sent to them, can you?" " I suppose Funder has told you." " No." "He was pretty vague." " They came one day with 20 men." " Who?" "Who?" "The Germans." "They searched the whole factory." "They didn't find anything." "Except your drawing." "They'd brought an engineer along." "He was very interested." "I explained that it was made by our previous engineer   without my knowledge." "They demanded an immediate production." "They would have taken me down to German headquarters." "I had no choice."
