"Hi." "This would have been my wife's birthday." "Congrats, then." "Off to kill a few more patients?" "You killed your wife." "You fucked her to death." "Euphoria - wasn't that something you could feel until you understood the word's meaning?" "Thanks and goodbye." "Next." "Wow." "It's you." "Nice outfit." "Airy and pleasant." "Cool in summer, warm in winter." "Like being amphibious." "Right now, I'm at 72 degrees." "Now it's warmer." " Come on in." " Hey!" "You forgot your tent." "Isak, how can I help?" "What's new in your life?" "Lots." "I've seen the light." "I'm now a disciple of the Prophet..." "First, I met you." "You opened the door to the happy hookers,   the songbirds of sexuality, but it got lonely after a while." "Dirty, empty, and damn expensive." "But I drive a cab, and am exposed to different cultures constantly." " So now..." " I'm Muslim." " And this is?" " Fatima." " She doesn't speak?" " Not in public, only at home." "I've tried to get her onto my coffee regime, but had to give up." "The cops came, thinking we had a party." "We'd had two pots each." "I'm trying to learn Arabic, but when I can't pronounce it, I scream:" " Which means?" " Something is good?" " God is good." " At least I'm trying." "You didn't come here for Arabic lessons." "I can't have children." "My testicles can only turn out mocha." "The point is that Fatima has two lovely kids." "Her husband blew himself up with a busload of Harry Potter books in Peshawar." "The point is that the little buggers love to draw." "I ask if it's a plane." "No, it's a tanker passing a fisherman." " You get it?" " No." "I'm afraid they'll draw the prophet." "If a plane is a tanker, what am I to think?" "I'm scared." "Do I shoot them when I come home   because they've drawn a nice goose, and it's Muhammed?" " Fatima, what's your take on this?" " This is not in public." " He's insane." " I take your faith seriously." "No, the extremism." "Is it better that a drunk Dane draws Muhammed?" "Presumably, any child can draw Muhammed." "Pencils should be banned." "Coffee?" "Well, I'll try to take this seriously   so you don't come back accusing me   when Isak kills the kids for blasphemy with crayons." "All religions are based on loving thy neighbor." "I don't think Muhammed would mind being drawn." "I don't think Jesus wants Christians to ban condoms   in a country riddled by AIDS." "I mean religions in general now." "You've moved so far from the true meaning   that if God existed, he would turn his back on you." "Once, he had Michelangelo, and Bach on his side." "Now he has priests fucking children and people blowing themselves up   for a hundred virgins in Paradise." "What the fuck?" "You have created a God where to satisfy his rules   automatically makes you a miserable, scared human being." "The voice inside you that tells you what's right and wrong is not God." "It's your humanity." "You say: "It comes from God."" "No, it doesn't." "Give me a single example of a good deed   a believer can do, that a non-believer can't do." "You can't think of a single one." "Give me an example of an evil act, based on religion." "You could be here till morning." "Have some self-respect." " Hour's up." " So it's fine for the kids to draw?" "Definitely." " What are you doing?" " Tension." " He's very good with his hands, Dag." " And Mengele was a good doctor." " Stop that." " It's no good to stop halfway." "There's nothing in your mind about massages now." "I know that." "That's not true." "I'm happy to help a girl out." "Come on." "You can come back and help another day." "Good lord." " Better?" " Much better." " That's good." " Come on." "I kissed Trine." "Or she kissed me." "I'm not sure." "That's good?" "Or not?" "I don't know what I'm doing." "First thing this morning, I looked at Eva's Facebook pictures." "You kissed one, you're in love with another   and you're not with any of them." "What's the problem?" "Can't we just pretend that you're normal for once?" "The point isn't whether I'm in love,   but that I did a shitty job with Eva." "I can't get it out of my head until she feels better." " Why do you want that?" " Because she deserves it." " Because you're in love." " No, but that thing with Trine isn't helping." " And what does she want with me?" " I guess she like you." "Not everything needs a deep, philosophical reason behind it." "If everyone was like you, we'd be 11 people   spread out over 6 continents." "I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I burned her a CD." "I was at her place, listening to the radio." "A medium where you don't get to pick the next song." "I thought it might be cute, in a High Fidelity way." "I'm going to feel like an idiot, standing there with the disc." "It's nice anyway." "What's the difference?" "You feel like a fool already." "No, come on." "Just do it." "I've got to get going." "I'm trying to build some goodwill at home." "I promised to relieve Mia's cousin with the care   of her quadriplegic sister." "Sad story." "Wait." "I've got something for you." " What's all this?" " All the drugs from my place." "I didn't have the heart to throw it out,   so I figured you could make some use of it." "Consider it a sociological experiment,   and don't do it all at once." "Wait." "There." "It's not for me." "Relax." "OK." "Oh, fuck." "Wow, wow, wow." "Happy birthday, mommy." "I've saved a picture of you for my son." "You look very pretty." "Just the way you'd want to be remembered." "You did the best you could." "He seemed really cheerful as he left." "Yeah." "Christmas for Bad Santa." "I've got something for you too." "So we won't have more massage assaults from the Erection of Baskerville." " What is it?" " Not what." "Who." "This is the most relaxed day in your life." "Give it a good home." "Hi." "I thought you might be home." " I just fed Leon." " He's asleep?" "I was a little dazed at the office yesterday." " I should have said something." " Like what?" ""Welcome home", or something." "I could have called ahead, but..." " Thanks for Leon's present, by the way." " Yeah, I saw the text message." "The panda made me laugh." " Practice makes perfect..." " Don't try it." "But can't we do what you said, and have a coffee sometime?" "I need a nap." "Leon is teething, and sleeps one hour at a time." "I try to sleep when he sleeps." "Of course." "I have..." "I burned this for you." "When Leon's asleep, you can kick back with a glass of red wine   and listen to some music." " Bye, then." " Bye." "Come in!" "Hi." "I'm Benedikt, Mia's boyfriend." " Opening a bar?" " A buddy just gave it to me." "Great that you could make it." "Really kind." "Not a problem." "I don't get out much." "My sister needs someone constantly   in case something happens to the machines." "But don't be fooled." "She's really sharp." " Where is she?" " Asleep, but she knows you're coming." "The remote is on the table, there's food in the fridge." "Make yourself at home." "Lovely." "This'll work out." "Listen, Mia is lucky." "You're a great guy." "Thanks a lot." "Enjoy!" " You too." " Take care." "Hi." "You're awake?" " Your sister will be here soon." " Are you drinking wine?" "Yes, that's right." "She went out with her friends." "Can I have a taste?" "A taste of wine?" " Uh, can you?" "Isn't it dangerous?" " No." "OK, sure you can have some." "Let's see." "Just like this, maybe." " Thanks." " Don't mention it." "You are kind." " A little more." " More wine?" "That'll do." "Can you put your hand to my face?" "Yes, well..." "Like that?" "I was watching TV just now." "I can pull the curtain away   and we can watch together." "A movie, or..." "Would you like that?" " Sleep with me." " What did you say?" "Sleep with me." "Please." "Thank you." " Yes?" " I can't get in home." "Mia is at her parents, and I've lost my keys." "Is there something more wrong than usual?" "Yes, you could say that." " Come on." " Thanks a lot." " Started drinking wine again?" " It's not wine." "I'll never tell you what it is." "But let's not talk about me." "I've seen you do despicable things." "What's different now?" "No..." "You know, the quadriplegic?" "Mmm." "Good." "Good." "What was I to do, Dag?" "I didn't want to." "She said "please." I thought she'd feel better   if I treated her like a normal girl." "So you fucked her?" "Yes, and that's not the worst of it." "Her sister came home." " Hi." " Everything OK?" " She can have trouble breathing." " It went well." "She's sleeping." " That's great." " Yes." "She didn't ask you to sleep with her, did she?" "Christ." "She usually does, the rare occasion when I have boys here." "Nobody does." "It's very sad, and she gets depressed afterwards." "You did it." " Is there one for me in there?" " Help yourself." "One thing led to another." "This is where I lost my keys." "She had so many piercings, it was like humping a hamster cage." "I tried to use my keys to bend them apart." "The keys got stuck." "And the sister developed a rattle." "She had to be hospitalized." "I was blasted on pills   and couldn't say: "Stand still, so I can get my keys."" "Now, she's walking around with my keys like a cow's bell." "I don't quite know what to say." "You've never considered living an ordinary life?" "Like a human being, not the Pol Pol of sexuality?" "It was very humane." "I did it because she needed it." "It would have been wrong to say no." "She would have felt worse." "The sister, I did because I felt guilty." "Hello." "Is everything...?" "Yes, of course." "I'll be right over." " Something wrong?" " Eva." "She didn't sound good." " What record did you burn for her?" " Something superb, of course." "Mary Gauthier" " The Foundling." "You gave her a record of the world's saddest country singer   singing about her mother abandoning her, to a recent mother,   is alone, and had her own mother die in her arms?" "I got to run." "Don't talk to me about being human, huh?" "What were you thinking?" "You're worse than me." "Fuck..." "It's open." "Old habits do die hard, or what?" "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you." "I just..." "No bother." "It just got a bit much." "It's hard to be alone." "And I felt I owe you an apology." "No, you don't." "Don't even think it." "Dag, I was the one who left." "You gave me so much, and you didn't owe me anything." "I understand you leaving." "You'd just had a baby, needed something more,   and I gave you nothing." "I don't think I gave you a chance, either." "I just did what I always do." "Leave before I'm left." "I've done it since I was little." "Since my dad left." "I don't stay to fight for anything at all." "Not mommy." "Not Goa." "And not with you." "Did leaving help any?" "I left to find out who Leon's father is." "To make sure." "It couldn't be worse, really." "A drunken one-night-stand." "Final proof that not all sexual fantasies need to be explored." "You poor thing." "Everyone complains, and nobody asks how you're doing." "I'm all right." "I'm Dag, and I'm not an alcoholic." "My therapist thinks I'm a whiner." "That's a fine and masculine trait." "Would it be all right if you held me a bit?" "Yes, yes." "Is that wrong?" "No, no." "I've been wondering for some time what it would feel like."
