" Hi, how are you?" " Hi." "Little and thin with a dirty grin." "You've got a slowworm named Rolf..." "...who lives in your pocket." "Hi, how are you?" " How old are you, have you turned seven?" " No, I haven't." "Do you like to chase fat old men..." "...who sometimes burst?" "You're my best friend." "So I give you a beautiful ring..." "...that I've made myself." "Walk from town to town." "Talk to those who find it hard to play." "Walk from town to town." "Talk to those who have gotten into trouble..." "...and your childhood shall never, never die." "Sit down!" " Drunken behaviour at the hotel bar." " Oh no, not drunken behaviour." "It's such a cliché!" "Please write something other than the hotel bar, it sounds so damn boring!" "She's talking to you!" " Do you have any diseases?" " No." " How many people live in Gothenburg?" " Check if he's got an ID-card." "Ger-many!" " Hey, stand still!" " That's a good joke, admit it!" "Hey, hey, hey..." "What animal has always regrets?" "The deer." "Dear oh dear." " Where are you?" "At the station." "I'm an idiot, I know." "I can't talk anymore right now." "I just wanted to tell you where I am." " Mm..." "How kind of you." " So, is Robin asleep?" "Could you..." "Hello?" "Hello?" " I'm just going to make a quick call." " No." "Time's up." "What the fuck." "You were so kind just a minute ago." "Hey!" "Open up!" "Hey, you fucking pigs!" "Open the door!" " Open up you cunt, I want to make another call." " Calm down!" " Can I call my son again?" " Cut it out." "Can I please call my son again?" " Hi." " Hi." " Do you want coffee?" "Yes please." "What a hideous color." "Shut up." "Where's the rest?" "The rest?" "You've got loads of stuff in the attic." "Furniture and bags..." " How many times have you read this one?" " I haven't read it." "Do you want to sit in the living room or in here?" " How are things?" " What do you mean?" "At the police station." "I'm chasing thieves as usual." "Mummy?" "Where's daddy?" "Dad's gone away for a few days." "He's gone away to show his pictures." "That's not much fun for us." " No." "But we'll manage on our own, won't we?" "Yes." "Just you and me." "Now finish your breakfast and then we'll go to school." "That was you, admit it?" " Do you think it's funny?" " No." "And then all three at once." "So many eggs, I don't know what to do!" "I want a blue or a purple one." "I want one that's dark purple." "Here you go." " Can I get a giraffe?" " Haven't you gotten a balloon yet?" "I'd been acting crazy the whole day, and then finally dad came home." "It felt like forever." "He said:" "Now you've got a sibling Lina." "And then we got into the car." "I kept nagging him the whole trip." "Asked him if I'd got a brother or a sister, but he didn't say anything." "I wanted it to be a brother." "I didn't want a sister because I was worried that we would compete about our parents attention." "Close your eyes." "I'm working on them." "I just can't stop thinking about him." "We've agreed not to call each other for a while." "Where are you staying now?" "My colleague let me borrow his flat for two weeks while he's on vacation." "I find it hard to be alone." "I just wish we had solved it like adults." "It went too fast." "Robin!" " I need to repaint the house as well." " Really, and who's gonna do that?" " No, but your boyfriend could help out for once." " He's rather busy with his own stuff." " But if I could borrow some money?" "You haven't even repaid what you've borrowed." "You'll get it when the record is released, I've told you that a million times." "Well, that won't happen tomorrow." "You don't know that." "I could use some cash for that as well." " 20 000 would be fine." "You're insane!" " But he's making so much money that boyfriend of yours." "ROBIN!" " Who is that?" " That's aunt Ellen." " Can we go to see her sometime?" " Maybe, but she lives so far away." " Maybe we can see her during the summer break." "Yes." "Maybe." "Who's that?" " I think you know that." "You?" "Yes." "We sang the whole chorus together." "Twice." "Then she left." "Don't worry, I said." "Run back to the cabin." "I'll meet you here in two days." "Then I heard my father call." "Vera, you silly girl!" "Run back, or he'll kill me!" "It went quiet." "She hated it when I called her things like that." "How long did it take you to write this book?" "I wrote this one in two months." "Much faster than usual." "I've carried the idea with me for a long time." "All I had to do was to sit down and start writing." " No, I find this one drier than the other." " Really?" "Yes, take a sip." " Do you feel it?" " Mm." "I wish we could see each other, Vera and I." "That she'd come to me, to the garden " " drink some wine and just talk." "That I could call her now and ask her what she's doing tomorrow  if she wanted to do something." "Or I could take care of Robin, I'd like that." "To get to be his aunt for a bit." "Aren't you coming to bed?" " No." "It said pling plong when they went out too." "I bet Enok is a crook, Roberta said-and removed her nose from the window." "What's wrong with your old shoes?" "Fine autumn shoes, they are!" "People just want more and more these days." "Then he turned around, went back into the small room and turned up the volume." "Hi you've reached Øivind." "I can't take your call right now," "but leave a message and I'll call you or send you a text." " Is this your father?" " No." "I think you look alike." " Is the phone ringing?" " Maybe it's important." "I have to go check it." "It's half past two!" "...two, three!" " Is there any subject that you love in school?" " Yes, history, because I'm really good at it!" " Is there any subject that you love in school?" " Yes, history, because I'm really good at it!" "It's fun to learn about Jesus and stuff." "And is there anything you find difficult?" "Yes, maths." "Anything specific?" " Plus is easy but minus is really difficult." "We'll have to give you some more exercises then, so that you can practice." "Do you get help with your homework?" "I've had to work extra shifts lately, -so we've been bad at doing homework." "Daddy's away showing his pictures and mummy's taking extra shifts, so I spend a lot of time with my babysitter." "And she doesn't check my homework." "And you're often late in the mornings, how come?" " We try to get up..." " DADDY!" " Hello." "Hi, buddy!" "We're discussing sleeping habits and Robin was just explaining why he's sometimes late in the mornings." "I go to bed at eight, nine, mostly eight." "You're a little "Alfie Atkins" aren't you?" "Like him, you "just gotta do"." "Then we'll have to make sure that you get some more help and get started on the subtractions." " Maybe we should do some more maths, you and I?" " Sure." "Yes, that would be very good." "So you'll feel secure and can move on with your work." "You've got a slowworm named..." " Rolf!" "... who lives in your pocket." " Hi!" " Hi!" " Can I come in?" "Yes." "Come, come quickly." "Li..." "little Red Riding Hood." "I'm coming... on your birth... day   said Red Riding Hood." "Robin..." "Robin..." "You've probably noticed that things aren't great between us." "I'm so scared that this will affect Robin, that he'll notice." "Has he said anything to you?" "Not about that." "He's said that   he wants you two to get along." "And that he misses his dad." " Hi." " Hi." " Can I come in?" " Of course." " It's newly washed." "It's just been a bit bundled up." " It's fine." "Did I wake you up?" "No." "It's ok." " There's a towel, if you want to take a shower." "Thanks." "We're lying on a beach." "Under a parasol, in the sun." "We're barefooted." "You've got sand between your toes." "We've been close together for many, many days." "Just you and me." " Do you know something?" " No." "I'm in love with you." "I've never met anyone as special as you." " Hi, it's me." "I just..." " I'm in the middle of a sale." "Yes, but this won't take long." "I need to know, to whom are you going to send the invitations?" "I've already sent them." "What?" "There is a list on the kitchen table of who I've sent them to." "Ok." "I love you." "I love you too." "Bye." "Ellen!" "We have to remove all this." "The neighbours can see right in." "The wood is rotten." "Who cares, Carl?" " Just look at this, it's totally..." "Remind me that I have to call about the water, the boiler and the electricity." "Do you think I can call on a Saturday?" "Hello." "Aren't you wearing a bra?" " No." "I wasn't expecting company." "Yes, I scored!" "Messi!" "Give me five." "Here I come!" "Can you hurry up?" "Come on, Alice!" "I'm coming." "Come on, lock the door." "Coming!" "Hi." "I thought I was supposed look after Robin today?" "Hold on." "I'm sorry, I completely forgot." "I was going to call you." "I came home earlier from my trip, so it's not necessary." " Did I ruin your day?" " No, it's fine." " Robin, Tora is here." "Don't you want to say hi?" " No, I haven't got time now." " Hi Robin!" " But she's standing here talking to you now." "You can come in and say hi if you want." " No." "Bye." "Hey!" " Give him a hug from me." " Sure." "Bye." "You have to roll it like this, get it?" "Then you take it off and do the other side." "That's it." "How are you doing with the girls in school?" " I don't want one yet." " No." "Maybe later." "Is there anyone who's extra sweet?" " There's one that I like, Sofie who's short." " Sofie who's short." " Yes, she is shortest in our class and cute." " Ok, so you like short girls." "I'd never guessed." " They're the cutest." " Is that so?" "Sure." "How about mom, is she cute enough for me?" "Is she short enough?" " Robins Pizzeria." " Hi!" " How's it going?" " Great!" "I'm going to be late tonight   so I was wondering if you could bring some food when you come over." "Sure we can, it's just that it had been nice to have you here   but I guess we'll play some more on our own." " Just don't play too much." " I won't." "I'll see you later, tonight." " Do you want something to drink?" " Yes." "You have to wash your hair." " I don't want to." " I did it yesterday." " No you didn't." "Yes, I did." " No you didn't." "Yes, I did." " Why are you lying?" "Look at me." "You shouldn't lie." " Okay." " Okay?" "I'll take this, and then you'll wash your hair when you're told." "Come here, close your eyes." " Then you'll have to close your eyes too." "Yes they're closed." "Your eyes aren't closed." " Now they are." " Close them!" " They're closed." "You should close your eyes!" "You close them." " Let's wash it of." " Okay." "How did it go?" "Jesus!" "Can you leave me alone?" "I'm removing my makeup, ok?" "Ok." "Sorry." "I'm sorry." "I had a rough day." "A rough day?" "You have to talk to me." "If you've had a rough day, you should be able to talk to me about it." "It's just this small thing that I've thought about and blown out of proportion in my head." "And what's that?" "I'm afraid that you don't want to be with me." "That you don't want to move in with me." "That you might be unsure about us." "But I like you." "Don't you get that?" "But you have to talk to me." "You have to let go of those ideas, ok?" "Yes." "If you promise not to leave me." "I promise." " Daddy, I'm cold." "I want to go home." "Why?" " It's cold." " It's cold?" "You want to go home because it's a bit cold?" "Yes." "Then, I know what to do." " Say again?" " Now, I'm not as cold anymore." " If I get the spear, you get the knife." " I need a spear too   but you're going to make your own spear." "But you can't tell mum about this." " No, i promise." "You promise?" "Look at me!" " Thumbs." " Thumbs." "And carve downwards so you don't cut yourself." "No, no, no, downwards." "You don't want to cut yourself." "It's the mummies we're going to cut." "Now finish it." " Is it sharp?" "Yes." " Can I feel?" " Daddy, I want to go home." "I'm cold." " But, we're having so much fun." " I really want to go home to mummy." " Mum is working." "But we're playing now." "It was such a long time since we played, just you and me." "So I'll stand here and count and you'll run and hide, and then I'll come look for you." " Ok." " Ok?" "One...two..." "You can't hide there, Robin." "I'll see you right away!" "I'm sorry, dad." "If we're going to play and have fun, we have to do it seriously." "You have to run farther away, right?" "Ok." "Ok?" "Good." "Run!" "That's good, Robin!" "One.. two.. good.. four.." "five.. six.. seven.." "eight.. nine.. ten..." "Robin!" "Robin!" "Robin!" "Robin, mum is waiting so if we go now we'll catch her." "Robin if we go now we'll make it, home to mum." "Shout." "Moan a bit." "Come on." "What's wrong?" "You tell me." "Leave." "Leave." " What was that?" " Nothing, just some crap that fell down." " But I heard that it was something sharp." " You heard that it was something sharp?" "Yes!" "How the hell could you hear that?" "Do you have some kind of super ears?" "What was it?" " Seriously, it was nothing." "It was just..." " Show me!" "Are you serious?" " Show me what it was." " Kiss me first." " No, show me first." " Ok." "Wrong!" "It was your old earring." " This is hers." "It's not mine." " Hers?" "No." "She never had ones like these." "Are you sure it's not yours?" " Cut it out!" "Throw it away." "Absolutely." "I will." " I thought we were supposed to clear her out?" " But we have cleared her out." "I'll throw it away." " That's why we went to the dump." " Take it yourself then, and trash it." " No." " I trust you." " Good." "No don't, I feel sick." " It must be stress, don't you think?" " No, I feel sick." "Do you feel sick when you're stressed?" "It just came over me." "Please don't touch me right now." "I think I have to sit down." "You do look hot." "Aren't you going to answer?" " No." "It's not important." " What if I'm pregnant?" " No, but that's impossible?" "You do know that it's possible go get pregnant if you're not using a condom?" " Go upstairs and I'll take care of the laundry?" " I'm too tired to walk." " I can carry you." "Yes." "Tora?" "Can you sleep here with me?" "It will be alright." "Actually I did meet Cornelis once at the Malmö Festival, in the early seventies." "Actually I did meet Cornelis once at the Malmö Festival, in the early seventies." "I had a gig there too." "But Cornelis was booed off." "He didn't like that the children were playing in front of the stage, so he screamed at the audience." "It wasn't very appreciated." "'He almost had to leave the stage." " Did you get an invitation card from Ellen?" " No, I didn't." "It worked out much better for me." "I actually got more than a few gigs after that." "Robin." "Go and tidy your room." " I got to play a lot in Scania after that." " Have you read the book?" "Why would I?" "Actually, I think you should." " Why?" "Does it say anything important?" "I'm not going to read that load of crap." " Why not?" " It's just something she's written to make a fortune on some scandal - that doesn't even exist." " How do you know?" "You haven't read the book." " What the heck, people are talking." "From what I've heard it's not very flattering." " Read the book, then." " I don't want to read it." "I don't want to judge myself." " Why don't you want to read it?" " I say what the king said: why should I comment on something" " I'm not remotely interested in?" " Then, why are you so afraid to read it?" "Afraid?" "What the hell would I be afraid of?" "I've got nothing to hide!" "I did the best I could when you were little." "You're just like your mother." "Everything was my fault, never hers." "I had to earn money, then you can't stay at home." "Even you understand that." "You have to go to work if you want to get paid." "You really don't want to know what the book says?" " No, I don't." "Why not?" " Is any of it true?" "You'll find out if you read it." " But what do you think?" "What do you have to say about it?" "Have you read it?" " I've read it." "I think you should read it." " Is it any truth to it then?" " Read it." " No." "Tell me, is there anything true in the book?" " Read it, and you'll find out." " Why should I, what do you think?" "Does it say anything that matches your experience?" "If you're going to be like this, I'll leave." " Leave then." " Fine." "I'll do that." "I mean, a crime was committed against me." "I mean, a crime was committed against me." "I know who the offender is, I know that it's my dad, and I've written his name." "Now I can move on with it." "Is it problematic for you that people only get to hear your side of the story?" "No, I don't think so, actually." " Has it ever been?" " I don't think so." "Then why have you chosen to tell your story in such a documentary style?" "Since you've chosen to tell your story, as truthfully as you can..." " I don't understand what you mean." " It's so obvious that" " your sister is in the same situation as you are  and it's not clear that..." "How should I put this?" "You can move on now when you've told this story  but your sister also has to move on with this story that you've chosen to tell." "She could write a book, if she wanted to." "About me." "I couldn't have written this book otherwise." "Many thanks." "Aren't you going to open the door?" "Yes." " Who was it?" " Strange." "There was nobody there." "You can't just come here like this!" " Can we talk?" "I have to tell you something." "You can't just come here, are you a complete idiot?" "You're the idiot, now let me in." " No." "Go home." " Is she in there?" " I'm throwing you out now, ok?" "Go home." "I'll wrestle you to the ground." "You don't have a chance of throwing me out." "Let me in." "Let her in." "Do as your girlfriend tells you." "You're letting her in now!" " This is not your flat." "You're a cop for Christ's sake!" "You can't behave like this, break into people's homes." " Let her in now, we have to sort this out!" " No!" "For fuck's sake Øivind, we had sex two days ago." "I will never let you in." " We have been together for seven years." " We're not together any more." "You promised me that we would stay together forever." "Look at me!" "I've called a cab." "We should have bought a new flat together." "We really should have." "We were supposed to stay away from each other." " That doesn't seem to work." " No." "It doesn't." " Have you been drinking?" " No, I've not been drinking." "Was there something in particular that you wanted?" " What's with you?" "Are you seeing someone?" " That's none of your business." "No, no, no..." " Can I come up with you?" " No." "We've had this discussion a thousand times." "Yes, but can I just sleep here tonight?" " No, it will confuse Robin." "I've told him you're away on a trip." "Then you can't just show up." " Is he ok?" "Yes." "I think so." "I was thinking, the three of us should go fishing together." "Oh, come on!" "Could we..." "I'm thinking about you all the time, I miss both of you like hell." "But it shouldn't always be up to me." "I can't make all the decisions." "You have to straighten up." "Take some damn responsibility." "Can we go inside?" "It's so damn cold." "Ok." "Let's go."
