" Then might as well go home." " There's a flight at 6:45 PM." " Should book a seat for you?" " Yes." "I'll have the chauffeur pick you up at 5:30." " Put the shirts on the bed." " Thanks." "It's Borch Moller." "Would you call my wife and tell her won't be home until tomorrow?" "I'm going to stay for another night." "INHERITANCE" "Stockholm, 5 Years Earlier" "An were your very very sweet Rosalind?" " would kiss you before spoke." " Nay, you were better speak first." "And when you were graveled for lack of matter..." " you might take occasion to kiss." "Very good orators, when they are out, they will spit..." " and for lovers, lacking ...God warn just... matter..." " the cleanest shift is to kiss." "How if the kiss be denied?" "When she puts you to entreaty, and there begins new matter." "Hi, Christoffer!" "She was great tonight." " Hi." " Hi." "Thanks for a great evening." " Are you here, Christoffer?" " Sorry." "Thanks for a great evening." "It was fabulous." "Do you know what?" "I've been offered an annual contract." "Really?" "Two leads and two minor roles." "The first will be "Romeo and Juliet"." " That's fantastic." "Congratulations!" " I'll play Juliet on the main stage!" " See you, Linda." " Bye." "She said no four times." "can't believe kept trying." "Thanks for everything." "Good night!" "It was just bad timing." "It's got to be right." "But he did propose finally, in the forest." "In the forest?" "Why?" "We were on our way to your mother's summerhouse." " Then thought, I'll do it now." " And you said yes?" " Alfred, when will you get married?" " Never." " Never?" " Never." "You can close now." "But you're seeing someone now, aren't you?" "Have to talk to Stan about tomorrow's menu." " More wine?" " No, thanks." "This one's big." " What..." "Hi, Dad." " Aksel..." " What are you doing here?" " had a meeting in Finland." "And then thought I'd stop by to see my son." " Hi, Maria." " Hi, Aksel." "How nice." " How long have you sat here?" " Half an hour." "I've read the paper." " Here you are." " Thanks." "Like the apartment?" "It's perfect." "Two minutes to the theater and the restaurant." "What did you give him?" "The Morgon?" " Isn't that a little heavy at 10 AM?" " Ignore him." "When he lived at home he drank Coca-Cola for breakfast." "Is the restaurant doing well?" "We're doing half a million in turnover..." " Great!" " ..." "A month." " He's opening a new one." " We found a space by the canal." "We'll open one for a younger crowd." "You know Christoffer and worked together, right?" "Yes, heard about it." "It was a catastrophe." "was thrown out of the family firm." "You left of your own free will." "It was funny." "Just wait until you get a son of your own." "That's the dream." "Thanks, Dad." "How long are you staying?" " I've got to go back today." " No." "You've got to stay." "You've got to come and eat at the restaurant." " We can go see Maria." " Yes." " You can't leave yet." "Stop." " I'm off tomorrow." " Mother is expecting me." " Want me to call her?" " She'll be fine without you." " Thanks." "This sort of thing needs to be planned." "That's right." "Now it's been planned." "Be nice to your Dad." "Thank you for coming." "When things are planned, they're planned." "Right?" " Give my regards to Maria." " will." "Take care." "But can't really..." "If did love you in my master's flame In your deniall would find no sense. would not understand it." " What would you do?" " Make a willow cabin at your gate." "And call upon my soul within the house." "Do you have to wave your arms around all the time?" "But I'm getting into the role." "And make all the babbling gossip of the air cry out Olivia!" "Okay..." "And make all the babbling gossip of the air cry out Olivia!" "Okay, "what is my parentage?"" "Let it ring." "Christoffer speaking." "Yes." "Yes, of course." "What is it?" "My father has hung himself." "Copenhagen, Vestre Chapel" "You'll have to come home now." "You'll have to come home to Denmark." "There was a clear agreement then." "don't want to get into it." "It's absolutely necessary that you come home." "You have to be able to see it's absolutely necessary." "We'll do it." "Of course." "Of course." "I've called a board meeting for 12:30." " Ulrik, could that wait?" " I'll call in half an hour." "Bye." "Sweetheart, we're going to see Granddad together." "Yes." "When Daddy's done talking, we'll go inside, okay?" "You know he's in there, right?" "They've dressed him up really nicely." "And Grandma's there too, okay?" "I've turned it off." "Come sit with me." " Didn't Maria come?" " She's coming later." "There, there." "Sit down." "Oh, Mother!" "Annelise, the employees will assemble at 12:00." "Then they'll know before we send out the press release." "Christoffer will tell the employees." "I've agreed with Christoffer that he'll do it as Aksel and my son." "Don't you think it would be better if did it?" "Let's just do it the way Mother says." "Come on." "Now we'll go say goodbye to Granddad." "Borch Moller Steel" "The bank told me they won't finance operations any longer." "I've had a meeting with them..." " and it appears Aksel hid a large deficit over a long period." " Did you know that?" " Yes. knew." "If we're going to survive..." " we're going to have to fire at least a hundred workers." "And we have to merge within the next two years." "We've had an offer from Lyon Steel in France." "And you'll have to do the merger." "You're the only one that can do it." " Dad wanted Ulrik to be the director." " Ulrik's no good, he lacks the talent." "Father always wanted you to take over the firm." "Your choice to leave the firm 4 years ago was your choice, never ours." "We don't have much time." "You have to inform the employees in half an hour." "You're unhappy now because your father is dead." "We'll talk about it at home, but we can't decide here." "We have to. have to tell 900 people my father is dead..." " and they need to know who's taking over." "The situation changed. have to help my family." "Can't you see?" "No, can't see." "Love you and want to help you." "But this is wrong. won't do it." "You said you lost 30 pounds when you worked here and nearly died." "This isn't what you want to do, Christoffer." "Know." "know you." "We've talked about it and ..." "We've decided that it's not going to work. can't do this." "Well." "We'll just have to deal with it." "Damn, it's Christoffer!" " Hi, Jens." " Damn, it's been a long time." "It's so good to see you." " Hello, Jens Monsted." " Maria." " My wife." " What brings you down here?" "Dad's dead." "That's impossible." "saw him on Friday." " We were over in the warehouse." " He died yesterday." "You better get over to the shed." "It is with deep sorrow that, on behalf of my family..." " have to tell you that my father died yesterday." "My mother, Annelise, now owns the controlling stake in the firm..." " and at an extraordinary board meeting this afternoon..." " she will inform the board..." " will take over as director, in accordance with the family's wishes." "Would like to underline that the change in leadership..." " will not have any consequences for the firm's employees." "Will pick up where my father left off." "Finally, I'd ask we all show my father the respect..." " of remembering him with a moment of silence." " You can't do this." "It's too much." " Ulrik, do we have to discuss it now?" "Will you fail the family like last time?" " I'm staying." " You're staying?" "I've worked here for 15 years." "was to take charge after Aksel." "I've been a part of this family." "was told nothing about this." "Nils, why didn't you tell me?" "The decision was taken with Annelise." "Why wasn't told?" "Why did have to feel like an idiot out there?" "We worked together, Nils." "We spent 3 years making a business plan." "You must stop shouting and accept it." "Was supposed to take over after Aksel." "Didn't ask for it." "Aksel asked me to." "Never wanted this." "Why didn't anyone ask me?" "Know you thought you were taking over, but Christoffer's home now." "Hope you'll be loyal and support us." "We need all our strength." "Dad." "Ulrik, does it matter who gets the title?" "Or else say so now." "Well, think I'd like to go home." "What are you thinking?" "I'm staying in Stockholm." "can't move here." " Maria, I've got no choice, do?" " We'll see each other at weekends." "Maria, this is about 900 people's lives, not just the two of us." " Some have been here for 40 years." " You think I'll let you ruin our life?" "There are two of us, understand?" "How could you do the opposite of what we decided?" "Wesselsminde, Copenhagen" "Do you want anything to eat?" "No thanks, Nils and ordered in." "Thank you for coming home, Christoffer." "That's okay." "Okay." "It will all work out." "We'll figure it out." "Was thinking you should move into the house, you and Maria." "Why?" "Don't want to live here any more." "I'll find something else." "Okay." "Well, I'm going to bed." "I'm really sorry." "Please call if there's anything." "If you need any help, please call." "Was so sorry when heard." "If there's anything can do for the firm, just call." "Holder Andersen, Director, Danske Bank." "My condolences, your father was a very nice man." "Think we've got a meeting on Monday." "We do." "I'm moving down here with you." "One of us has to give in." "And you won't." "For two years." "Two years, and not a day more, promise." "We'll keep the apartment in Stockholm." "Yes, of course." "What about the theater?" "I've already called to say won't sign the full-year contract." "But in 6 months, I'm going up to play "Romeo and Juliet"." "Love you so very, very much." "Two Months Later" "The painters really weren't sure." "That's the right color, right?" "The sofas have come." "had them put here." "Look." "Where did you find it?" "Wait..." "Thank you." "How long have you had these Sunday dinners?" "Father and started it when Benedikte and Christoffer left home." "It was as though we never saw each other any more." "They just stopped by, emptied the fridge and left." "There had to be a system." "And you can always lure people in with good food, right Christoffer?" "We meet on the first Sunday of the month, if we can." " Good idea." " Yes, it is." " Do you like your new house?" " like it very much." "You eat shrimp too at your crayfish feasts, right?" " Crayfish?" " Crawfish boils." "Yes, we have both crawfish and shrimp." " What are crawfish?" " Crayfish." " Oh, they're crayfish." " Help me." " They've got..." " What do know?" " They have these big crayfish feasts." " Crayfish feasts?" "You wear a little hat and drink lots of snaps, lots of snaps." " The important part is the snaps." " The akvavit." "Nils, sit down." "Care for a glass of wine?" "Yes, please." "What did they say?" "It's not so good." "The bank doesn't believe in you, Christoffer." "They don't think you've got enough experience." "That can't be true." "How rude." "Was it Holder himself?" "Yes." "You'll get four weeks to present a plan..." " and then they'll base their decision about the firm on that." "Four weeks, that's completely absurd. need four months." "They won't give us more, Christoffer." " Who do you have working for you?" " Dragsted and Holmgard." "Can you call them at once and inform them of this?" "Welcome to Sunday dinner." "It's always like this." "Thou art thyself though, not a Montague?" "What's Montague?" "Romeo, doff thy name and for that name which is no part of thee" "Take all myself" "Christoffer?" "Hello." "You surprised me." "Do you have to get through all of that?" "There are 10 departments, each with their own structure..." " connecting links, and accounting methods." "The only thing they had in common was the cafeteria and my dad." " Can't anyone can help you?" " Sure." " What are you doing?" " I'm rehearsing." " Do you want me to help?" " Do you have time?" " Yes." " You don't have to." " I'm the best Romeo there is." " You are." " Not many people know it though." " just hope I'm the best Juliet too." "There's a rumor you've taken money out of the firm..." " and opened a private account overseas." "That you want to use the four weeks to strip the firm's cash." " That's ridiculous." " Yes, of course it is." " Has the bank heard the rumor?" " don't know." "Who starts things like this?" "Hard to tell." "It could be competitors." "It could be gossip." "But there is, of course, another possibility." "The bank would make Ulrik the director if you went." "He wouldn't dare." "The risk is too great." " Find out where the rumor started." " Yes." " How lovely, hello." " Welcome." " Let's hope the weather holds." " Let's hope it does." "Hi." "Annika, this is Maria, Christoffer's wife." " Nice to meet you." " Likewise." " How is your mother?" " don't know." "You never do." "It was so nice of her to invite me." "I'll just go say hi, okay?" " See you later." " Bye." "Oh, there you are!" " Who's she?" " Annika?" "An old friend of the family." "She just left her husband, a real jerk." "They lived in New York." "New tie?" "I'd like to dedicate this year's hunt to my father..." " and raise a toast to his memory." "Cheers." "Today we'll be shooting what the laws allow, except running game." "We'll do four beats before lunch and three this afternoon." "The lunch is very important because my wife arranged it." "So it's important to praise her and praise her a lot..." " or else she won't do it next year." "Remember, load safely and no shots under 45 degrees." "Good luck." "It's Ulrik." "Holder had also heard the rumors..." " and had several unofficial meetings with Ulrik, who confirmed the rumors." "Now Holder intends to make Ulrik the new director..." " at the next board meeting." "Did you hear me?" "Come on, Christoffer." "Christoffer?" "He can't stay any longer." "He has no loyalty to the family." "What he's done is unforgivable." "We can't trust him." "He must go before the bank makes him director at the board meeting." " What about Benedikte?" " I'll talk to her." "How many people does the bank think we need to fire?" " 170." " The real number is 120-130, max." "We can keep it to just the North Section and transportation." "If Holder and the bank think we need to fire 170..." " then we'll fire 200." "It's important to send a clear signal, Christoffer." "We're here to say that you're fired, effective immediately." "I'd like you to leave the office right away." " Does Annelise know about this?" " Yes, she does." " But you can't do this." " We can." "We have." "Do you know what you're doing?" "I'm firing you and want you to pack your things and leave the office." "Can take the computer with me?" " No." " can't?" "You have to sign before you leave." "Sign that?" " What the hell are you doing?" " What's happened?" "I'm almost 60." "I've worked for this firm for 38 years." " I've driven you round this factory..." " Jens, what's happened?" "I've been fired." "What would your father think?" "You not supposed to be fired." "It's a mistake." "There's no mistake in the letter I've got." "Jens, believe me, it's mistake." "I'll take care of this." "Trust me." "Promise I'll fix this." "Trust me." "It's a mistake." "Okay?" "It's a mistake." "I'm sorry." "A mistake?" "You don't make that sort of mistake!" "The man was hired before you were born." " The car is waiting downstairs." " Tell it to wait!" " Listen, I'm really sorry, but..." " Get out." "You're fired." "Leave." "Leave!" "Christoffer, you can't fire him." "That's not how it works." "Don't care." "Re-hire Jens Monsted and apologize to him immediately." "But we can't." "If we start re-hiring people you just fired, it would be admitting a mistake." "It would be a bad signal to send given our situation." "He's worked here for 38 years." "He babysat me when was a kid." "I'll make sure he gets taken care of according to the rules..." " but we can't start playing favorites." "We have to stick to the rules or else they'll all want special treatment." "I'm sorry." "I'm going to Stockholm tomorrow." "Remember?" "Of course." "For four months." "Yes, but you were supposed to have left on Saturday." "It was changed a week ago." "We spoke about it as late as this morning." "Yes, damn it." "Don't want to argue any more on the last night we've got together." "I'm sorry." "What's the matter?" "How?" "Can tell something happened." "But you won't talk." " Tell me." " But you don't have to." " Want to know." " don't want to mix the two things." "Then get completely isolated." "don't understand a thing." "Don't want to talk about work at home." "Work is out there, and our life is here." "Sometimes wonder who's the idiot here." "Just want to help you." "Don't you understand that?" "Understand that." "What the hell are you thinking?" "Have you lost your mind?" "Maria, I'll take care of this." " What's happening?" " Benedikte, listen." "I'm your sister!" "Why didn't you say anything?" " Benedikte, take it easy." " Do you know what you've done?" "You got Mother in on it." "What the hell are you doing?" "You're ruining my life, do you know that?" "What's happened?" "Christoffer fired Ulrik." "And after only 2 months." "Ulrik's worked there for 15 years." " Do you know what he did?" " He said you had a disagreement..." "Disagreements?" "He spread false rumors about me and the firm." "He held secret meetings with Holder behind the family's back." "He was about to ruin the whole firm." "That's not true." "Ulrik wouldn't do that." "But he did." "Ask Nils." "Ask Mother." "It's not true, Christoffer!" " He did!" " You're ruining the whole family!" "He did the unforgivable." "You're not disloyal to your own family." " You need to give him his job back." " That's idiotic!" "can't do that!" " Then never want to see you again." " Shut up, Benedikte!" "What can do?" "Good." "Tell Mother never want to see her again either." " Stop it, Benedikte!" "Damn it!" " Benedikte, don't go!" "Benedikte, don't go." "Why didn't you say anything to me?" "What's going on?" "don't understand a thing." " Speak to me." "Say something." " What do you want to talk about?" "Want to talk about what's happening in your life." " Want to help you." " Good, then stay out of it." "Mean it." "Stay out of this." "It's got nothing to do with us." "Your sister just left and said she's never coming back." "I'm completely rebuilding the firm." "need space." "Please respect that." "Respect you." "give you all the space you need." "Don't say a word even though you're never home." "Go to your mother's boring dinners and listen to their gossip." " All can do is not enough." " You're just doing this for me?" " Yes, am." " Then go back to Stockholm." "Can leave for Stockholm right now." "I've got a life waiting for me there." "And you can live your damned life here." "We've got nothing in common any more." "Don't recognize you any more." "Don't look at me like that." "You've got to talk to me." "Don't keep me outside." "Can handle anything, as long as you tell me." " Are you sure shouldn't drive you?" " You don't need to." "Say hi to everyone up there." "1 Month Later" "Welcome to Borch Moller Steel." "Hope the first meeting between our two firms will be a success." "Me too, me too." "May present Mr. Ringhoff, our Chief Financial Officer." "Mr. Andersen, Director at the Danske Bank." "The entire process is automated..." " and we can produce steel in thickness from 16 to 70 mm." " Thank you, Allan." " Cheers." "Cheers." " Think everything will work out." " Are they ready to merge?" "We're figuring out who sends what where and what is..." "Benedikte and Ulrik are here with Annika." "Benedikte and Ulrik?" "Benedikte, your mother and Christoffer just walked in." "They're over there." "Well, guess they are." " Ulrik, don't think can manage." " No." "Think we'll have to leave." " Isn't it silly?" " Is there another exit than that one?" "Here comes Allan." "Here are your menus." "Allow me to present today's set menu." "Today we also have a three-course set menu." "Stockholm, Restaurant Frippes" "Hi, Christoffer, welcome home." " We don't see you much." " You seem to get by." "Where have you been?" " Just arrive?" " couldn't get a cab." "You need something to drink." " Cheers." " Can we go home?" "You just got here." "I've got to catch the 7 O'clock flight tomorrow morning." "Come on, Christoffer." "Just a couple of hours." "Put your bag up there." "Stop being so grumpy." "Have you slept with that guy Alfred?" " Why do you ask?" " Tell me." "Have you?" "Stop it." "Come on." "Saw you kissing him when arrived." "Back off." "He's my best friend." " You're lying." " Stop it." " Why can't you look me in the eye?" " can look you in the eye." "Then look me in the eye and say you haven't slept with him." "Haven't slept with Alfred." "Sorry." "I'm sorry, sweetheart." "I'm sorry." "Don't know what made me think you had slept with him." "Love you." "Love you so much." "I'm sorry." "Damn it, can't lie to you." "It was just once..." "but it meant nothing." "Damn it!" "It was a mistake." "It was so stupid." "Was drunk and he helped me home." "Missed you." "You've got to forgive me." "Can you ever forgive me?" "You can't leave!" "You can't leave, Christoffer!" "You can't leave damn it!" "Don't leave!" "Won't go away ever again." "Don't care about my work as long as we're together." "Christoffer." "Try the new chardonnay." "Think it's good." "Hi." "Hi, Annika." "What a surprise." "Met your Mother this morning and she invited me." " Just like the old days." " Would you like a glass?" "Cheers." " Where is Maria?" " In Stockholm." "Romeo and Juliet premiere's in a week." " Then she'll come back?" " hope so." "She shouldn't have gone." "She's an actress, it's her job." " Just think she could have waited." " How long has she been gone?" "Nine weeks." " Annika, you'll sit there." " Yes." " Here." " Thank you." "This won't work." "It won't?" "Christoffer, was so crazy about you." "Why did you leave me?" " Wasn't in love with you." " No, you weren't, you ass." "We could have had a good life together, don't you think?" "Have a good life." "Well congratulations then." "1 Year Later" "He is so tiny and sweet." "Could you take the bag?" "He looks like his mother, doesn't he?" "Now you've seen the whole house." "Look at him yawn." "He needs to sleep." "He needs to see his godfather." "See that's Nils." "And that's Holder." "They do need to be shown off." "He's lovely." " He looks like his father." " He does." "He's our joy." "That's how the family is." " Hi, friend." " Hi." " Here." " Thank you very much." " Did Benedikte come?" " No." " She stayed out in the car." " think she wants to talk to you." "Try to get her to come in." "Hi." "Hi." "He's completely fantastic." "He's so sweet." "He looks like Dad." "Ulrik doesn't know I'm here." "He's doing nothing." "He just sits there staring into space." "I'll talk to Olesen." "They may have something for him." "No, he needs to come back to the firm." "It's his life." "Know there were problems, but..." "Benedikte, can't." "can't." ""Can't" or "won't"?" "Stop that. can't." "The man was disloyal." "It wasn't just my decision." "Christoffer." "This is so difficult for me." "But I'm begging you, would you please re-hire Ulrik?" "You're as cold as ice." "You're just as cold as ice." " Benedikte." " Leave, get out of the car." " Can't." "Don't be silly." " Get out." "Leave now, Christoffer!" " I've missed you." " Me too." "What did she want?" "You better go out to your mother." "She's waiting for you in the car." " Will see you soon, Grandma?" " You will." "Bye, Marie-Louise." "Say hi to your mom." " Thanks for the flowers." " You're welcome." " See you." " Bye, Grandma." "She wants me to re-hire Ulrik." "Hasn't he been punished enough?" "Why can't you try to be different from them?" "Don't pester me." "Know it's been a difficult transition." "But there's no point in regrets." "I... can't manage." "Don't talk about your emotions." "Yes, you can." "It's on the verge of success." "It will be different after the merger." "We can't do anything else." "What we're doing is right." "I'm losing Maria." "Am." "I'm losing her." "Are you sure you don't want to come inside?" "I'm going home." "Yes." "Southern France, Lyon Steel" "We would like to announce the merger before the end of the year." "We've booked a table for 9 PM." "Philip, think I'd prefer to return home tonight." "Why?" "As you know, I've just had a son." "I'd like to be with my family." " And you, Nils?" " think it's best return with you." "Then goodbye." "Goodbye." " Christoffer, do you have a minute?" " Yes." "I'll go down and order a taxi." "There's something have to tell you, Christoffer." "Had hoped this could wait, but need to tell you right away." "There won't be room for Nils in our new organization." "Know that he means a lot to you..." " but he lacks the skills for the European market." "And he's too old." "Know." "Know it." "But I'd prefer to wait until the merger is official." " Then I'll tell him myself." " Of course." " Are you coming out to the plant?" " No, I'm going home." "Hi, Mother, it's Christoffer." "Are Maria and Aksel at your house?" "Yes, we came home a day early." "So you don't know where she is?" " Hi." " Hi." " Are you back already?" " Where have you been?" "I'll just put him down." " Why didn't you answer your phone?" " It's broken." "Was at my mother's, at her summerhouse." " You were due this afternoon." " What were you doing at the theater?" "Went by to show them Aksel." " Was Alfred there?" " It's got nothing to do with him." "This isn't about Alfred." "It's about you, Christoffer." "What do you mean?" "asked where you were." "What do you want?" "For me to wait, like a monkey in this prison?" "Never said that." "never asked for that." "What kind of garbage is that?" "I'm trying to rescue the firm and it's so close to failing." "Maybe I'm doing it for your sake as well." " So it's my fault you're never home?" " I'm not saying that." "I'm just asking where you were." "What's going on?" "Right?" " Told you." " You haven't told me, damn it!" " You're never here." " Because I'm working!" "Know that." "It's sick how much you work." " For your sake too, right?" " For my sake?" "You're lying to yourself." "We haven't made love in months." "Why?" "Because you can't any more." "Can't you admit it?" "You're so cold, so sad and cold." "Hate this life and everything you've done to us." "Do you know that?" "You lack nothing." "What about that car?" "Stop it!" "can live just as well without all of this shit." "Christoffer is upstairs." "I'll check you in." "We land at 11:30." "If the plane isn't delayed, we'll be at the plant by 1:30." "Yes, look forward to it." "We're looking forward to dinner tomorrow night." "Good bye." "It's a great piece of work." "This merger will be noticed all over Europe." "Brought a couple of glasses so we could celebrate." "We need to be at the gate in five minutes." "Yes, it will have to wait until we get back." "Well, then good luck." "We're coming." "We'll just take care of the last details in France..." " and then we'll take two weeks off, all by ourselves." "I've just seen a picture of the house."
