1
00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:15,796
In April last year, two men
disappeared in Copenhagen.
2
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,278
It was reported to the
police every few hours.
3
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:25,315
Otherwise, the two apparently
had nothing to do with each other.
4
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,398
One was a recluse and an oddball, -
5
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:33,031
- who lived in difficult
financial circumstances.
6
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,397
The other was a family
man, civil servant -
7
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,399
- and secured in every way.
8
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,957
They were born in the same
year. It could be a coincidence,-
9
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:49,917
- but it contributed to the
explanation that people had noticed it.
10
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,750
(a big bang)
11
00:02:55,400 --> 00:03:00,759
Leif, you have to eat up!
What wouldn't father say, -
12
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:05,875
- if he saw how
you stick to the food. You will never grow up then.
13
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,710
Leif the Lucky ate
buns in celery every day!
14
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:20,076
What shall we do, little Leif?
15
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,718
1448
16
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,673
(the phone is ringing)
17
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:39,192
- It's on duty speaking.
- It's Mrs. Amsted.
18
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,234
My husband has not
come home from the office.
19
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:48,554
- What is your address?
- Upsala street 22. He usually .
20
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,395
- Do you have a phone?
- Yes... Obro 8471.
21
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:58,476
- What is your husband's first name?
- T-e-o-d-o-r.
22
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,878
- Where does your husband work?
- He is a clerk.
23
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:07,238
- In the Ministry of Defence.
- And have you tried there?
24
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:12,150
He usually leaves the office at 17
and will be here 20 minutes later.
25
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:18,799
- Has he been gone for only 3 hours?!
- He always tends to be precise!
26
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:25,434
That's more than 3 hours!
His secretary says he left at 14.
27
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:31,476
- An express letter had arrived.
- And who sent that letter?
28
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,355
Now you've heard of husbands, -
29
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,469
- who made small, what shall
we call it... on the way home …
30
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,274
- What do you mean?
- Nothing.
31
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,358
They will to hear from us.
32
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:52,078
We have not received a report of anyone
by that name from the emergency rooms.
33
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:59,232
Now you have to take it easy,
he will probably show up soon.
34
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,950
Yes. Thanks.
35
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,438
Leif…
36
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,110
(the clock strikes 9)
37
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:48,150
Goodness, it's 9. Then you don't
have to wait any longer for father, Leif.
38
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:53,918
You have to get up early tomorrow. Brush teeth.
You've been reading your homework, right?
39
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,719
So you go to sleep
right away, right?
40
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,598
- Good night.
- Good night.
41
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,758
Sleep well.
42
00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:14,832
(shooting in the background)
43
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:48,351
(emergency)
44
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,715
I was on firing practice
with the battery.
45
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,037
I had to mark a case.
46
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,352
Could it have hit a passerby?
47
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,912
No, because then we would
have seen the detonation.
48
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,597
- And then…
- Try just one more time.
49
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,953
- Dynamite.
- Yes, 2 kilos.
50
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,469
14.34.
51
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:06,270
I can't say anything today.
Call me tomorrow.
52
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,791
- I'm just going to...
- No, we're busy here.
53
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,874
Well, have you measured
and photographed?
54
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,918
Yes.
55
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:26,235
Just as I stand there with the
clock, I saw the remains there of…
56
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:32,636
- How did it feel?
- It was very realistic.
57
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,953
It looked like the
war movies I've seen.
58
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,550
I think that's how
it goes in reality.
59
00:08:40,680 --> 00:08:45,470
Well, there's not much to see.
We don't have much to go on.
60
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,912
The medical examiners say a
man of 35, 40, maybe a little more.
61
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,873
Maybe a beard,
maybe just a moustache.
62
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,954
- Then there's the jacket here.
- (the phone is ringing)
63
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:03,235
Yes? Only two?
It is really easy to understand.
64
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:10,790
Sometimes it seems as if the
city has drifted apart. Thanks.
65
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,433
It was the jacket.
It is of fine quality.
66
00:09:15,560 --> 00:09:19,793
But worn out.
Maybe it was bought used.
67
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:25,199
There is a mark which
may be the man's initials CD.
68
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:31,475
There are fingerprints on the gold watch.
This is not something we have in stock.
69
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,473
Two men have been reported missing
in the last 24 hours.
70
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,878
See if they have dynamite in their
past and are missing a gold watch.
71
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,879
Criminal assistant Munk.
Will I meet Andrea Olivia Muller?
72
00:09:56,040 --> 00:10:01,638
- What can I do for you?
- May I come inside?
73
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,918
What could I have done though?
74
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:14,672
This is your lodger,
Michael Mogensen.
75
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,680
- Thought it was me. Have you found him?
- May I …
76
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,752
It is a routine examination.
77
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,032
If I may ask you
a few questions.
78
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,391
Yes, go ahead and sit down.
79
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,589
They have not provided a
job title for Mr Mogensen.
80
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,951
I have no idea what
he does for a living.
81
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,392
He studies.
He has not had a permanent job.
82
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,593
- He wasn't at the social services office.
- What is he studying?
83
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:57,399
Books, newspapers. He was once
a real student... at the university, but then...
84
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,512
How is Mr. Mogensen living?
85
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:08,320
He is unwashed, but otherwise calm
and composed. He must originate from...
86
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:13,560
- Does he drink?
- No. And ladies! A complete monk!
87
00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:18,516
Except the other day when
he had guests over for dinner, with beer!
88
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:32,272
- What does he pay for it?
- 80 a week if he pays.
89
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,149
But then it is also furnished.
90
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,274
A terrible mess. I have often offered
to clean for him. He's a pig.
91
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,359
But each time he gets
very angry and says:
92
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,353
"I beg your interference."
93
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,439
"You can keep your
cleaning frenzy to yourself."
94
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:16,680
- Have you seen Mogensen with that one?
- Yes, he had some of those clothes.
95
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,709
Good day, Mrs. Olsen.
Criminal assistant Munk.
96
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:58,114
They have a customer
named Michael Mogensen.
97
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,955
Have you spoken to
him in the last few days?
98
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:06,591
Spoken... He always
uses some nice words.
99
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,519
How was he that night?
100
00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:12,638
Why does it always
happen to Mogensen?
101
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:18,159
- One has to be the jackass, right?
- Mogensen is not happy about it.
102
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,870
- Was he in a bad mood?
- Nah.
103
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,233
He gave a shit and
said: "Screw it all."
104
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,953
There was nothing
noticeable about him.
105
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,198
He wasn't happy or sad?
106
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:43,713
Well, we sat and talked
and had some gewesen as one calls it.
107
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,872
Then he got drunk.
108
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:51,910
When he gets drunk, he
gives speeches… in English.
109
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,913
Do you remember what he said?
110
00:13:55,080 --> 00:14:01,474
I'm an old sailor, so I
understood it perfectly.
111
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:06,954
He said something about:
112
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,516
"I am the last
humanist in Europe."
113
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:18,354
"One of the noblest figures
in our history will die with me."
114
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,360
- HS, HS, message 649. Shifter.
- 649 come.
115
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:28,357
There are some remarks the
night before he disappeared about his death.
116
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,360
Yes, and then he was drunk.
Do you have something?
117
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,639
Nothing but some initials
on the gold watch. Letters TA..
118
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,469
You'd better take a closer
look at this Teodor Amsted.
119
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,718
Understood. 649 changes.
120
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:48,716
Yes, Deputy Amsted
did not show up today -
121
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,555
- in the Ministry
of Defence, why I...
122
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:58,836
He received an express letter
yesterday at 2 pm and left the department.
123
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:03,238
Well... Then the police are
better informed than I am.
124
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:07,712
There may be others
here who can do better.
125
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:13,114
Clerk Degerstream. Ask Ms.
Lilienfeldt come in here.
126
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,671
Immediately, Mr. Office Manager.
127
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,472
- (there is a knock on the door)
- Come in.
128
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,358
Ms. Lilienfeldt,
criminal assistant Munk.
129
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,472
What's wrong?
Is it agent Amsted?
130
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,116
Did you witness Amsted leave the
office yesterday at 14?
131
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:38,360
- Yes, Has anyone reported him?
- Did you see anything unusual?
132
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,956
He forgot his hat and cane.
Should I pick it up?
133
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,835
Nah…
I mean, right before he left.
134
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,954
A postman arrived
with an express letter.
135
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:54,079
He immediately got busy.
It might be him who…
136
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,710
- What?
- The children's lure in Church street.
137
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,958
- Thanks, that's all.
- Why.
138
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,630
Yes, thank you, thank you very much.
139
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,798
We have nothing to
complain about agent Amsted.
140
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:13,590
He is respected by
everyone here in my office.
141
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:17,913
- There are no difficulties?
- Not at all.
142
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:23,035
- He is a man of order.
- What is your impression of him?
143
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:27,592
I have the best impression
of him and of his lady.
144
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,679
They have come to my
home on certain occasions.
145
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:36,431
Has agent Amsted
had the opportunity to -
146
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,753
- dealing with explosives?
147
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,959
Now you exceed the
limit of your assignment!
148
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:50,194
I can't comment on that!
We are in the Ministry of Defence.
149
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:14,439
- Won't you sit down?
- Thanks.
150
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:20,949
They must apologize.
Nothing has been done today.
151
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:27,190
I don't understand what could have
happened. He must have gotten sick.
152
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:31,996
Yes, maybe.
They haven't noticed anything?
153
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:36,154
- He hasn't been nervous?
- Not at all.
154
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:41,190
I also always made sure
it was calm around him.
155
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:45,393
He hasn't changed in any way?
156
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,673
He is so orderly and regular.
157
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:54,112
I don't understand how he
can put me in that situation.
158
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,438
Has your husband
had financial difficulties?
159
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,838
My husband does not incur debt.
He has his affairs in order.
160
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,277
- Do you have a life insurance?
- Why do you ask?
161
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:10,877
- May I see it?
- Yes, it's here.
162
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:22,273
It was drawn when we got married.
It's been 18 years.
163
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,280
That was the year my
husband got his position after his legal exam.
164
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,836
- How many kids do they have?
- Only Leif.
165
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:34,079
Oh, poor Leif.
I thought to send him to the countryside.
166
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:38,034
Over to my brother, chief
physician Mörtel in Silkeborg.
167
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,711
Has there been insanity
in your husband's family?
168
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:48,791
Insanity... in the family?
How can you believe that?
169
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:55,195
In the Amsted family? His entire
family have been civil servants.
170
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:05,872
Does your husband
have any special interests?
171
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:13,353
His main interest is
his work in the ministry.
172
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:19,198
But other than that… no.
His home is everything to him.
173
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:25,669
Then there is his stamp collection.
He has over 6,000.
174
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:30,232
I don't have much
sense about such things, it's more for men.
175
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:35,679
I'm glad he has a hobby
that ties him to home.
176
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:40,078
Yes, I will have to look
in your husband's papers if I may?
177
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:45,030
- We have to find something we can go after.
- Yes, of course.
178
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:53,233
There is nothing in his
stash that I do not know.
179
00:19:53,360 --> 00:19:57,149
He never got one
letter he didn't show me.
180
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:03,310
Our life together is
not like other people's.
181
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:08,116
We are everything to each other.
182
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:31,513
He has the same picture
in his office at the ministry.
183
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,678
His thoughts are always with us.
184
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:39,311
He needs us around him.
185
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:44,719
This really is his little
cave, the office here.
186
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,919
Here he sits in the evening,
when Leif has gone to bed.
187
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,794
Does the name Michael
Mogensen mean anything to you?
188
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,959
No, I've never heard that name.
189
00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:21,000
Does your husband have a
gold watch with engraved initials?
190
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:26,520
Yes. Why do you ask that?
191
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,632
Well, nothing.
192
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,158
Good morning, Ms. Lilienfeldt.
193
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,671
Good morning, Deputy Degerstrom.
194
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:58,630
Deputy Degerstrom!
195
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:06,240
- What is it?
- An important letter to the office manager.
196
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,873
With T. Amsted as sender.
197
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:19,996
Yes, here we have to be
unorthodox and suspend business.
198
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:26,156
We request the head of office
to let it flow to him directly.
199
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,119
When he comes.
200
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:36,559
- The watch is from Amsted.
- So are the clothes.
201
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:40,031
CD stands for
Chestertown-Deverill.
202
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:44,478
One in Wide-street has
exclusive sales of that substance.
203
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:48,793
Amsted had all his
clothes sewn by him.
204
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,590
Mogensen's vest
had the same brand.
205
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,600
Then they are probably
blown up at once together.
206
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,951
- Good morning, miss. Lilienfeldt.
- Good morning, Mr. Office Manager.
207
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:12,278
I have an important personal
letter for the office manager.
208
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:17,839
They have been here long
enough to know the usual channels!
209
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:23,638
Clerk Degerstrom thought we
should request the head of office -
210
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,832
- about letting it
flow directly to him.
211
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:32,114
Good morning, Mr. Office Manager.
Yes, that is my opinion.
212
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,312
If it is a declaration of
war from Luxemburg, -
213
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,438
- then it's the Prime Minister's Office.
You know that.
214
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,870
Degerstrom!
215
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,277
Clerk Degerstrom.
216
00:23:54,920 --> 00:24:01,030
Something has happened, something
that concerns the honor of the ministry.
217
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,835
- Clerk Amsted is dead.
- Is he dead?
218
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:09,238
In a disgraceful way.
He has blown himself up -
219
00:24:09,360 --> 00:24:12,796
- by filling the
pockets and mouth with dynamite.
220
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,794
So it's him at Amager Felled?
221
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:21,557
Now the office will be mentioned
in connection with that scandal.
222
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,792
You good god!
223
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:29,113
It's terrible. His poor family.
224
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:34,474
Yes, he orders me to tell
his wife what happened.
225
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:39,032
Regarding the motive,
he is only able to inform, -
226
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:44,354
- that it is not due
to marital relations.
227
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:49,509
It is a personal dissatisfaction
with his deed that…
228
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,758
His deed here in the office?
229
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,958
How can it be unsatisfactory?
230
00:24:56,080 --> 00:25:00,677
Yes, but he writes in
this resignation letter, -
231
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,555
- that his expectations of
life have not been satisfied.
232
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:13,796
"Blissful" and "Church bell, no."
233
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:21,870
- Isn't that enough?
- You usually have three.
234
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:29,436
What does the lady think about "Lovely is
the earth" when the coffin is carried out?
235
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:35,278
Yes… the… eventually, yes.
Yes, it will be beautiful.
236
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:40,833
Then there is the side light.
Sidelights in the chapel cost DKK 80.
237
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:45,875
- Do you want the side light on?
- Is it necessary?
238
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,436
It is very dark in the chapel.
239
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:54,680
Well… well, we'd
better get the sidelight.
240
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,997
There is no need to
save for the DKK 80.
241
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:03,951
It's nicer when the side lights
are on... How about trees?
242
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:08,314
- What trees?
- Laurel trees.
243
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:13,674
DKK 15 each. There are no
trees planned in the normal burial.
244
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:18,954
Laurel trees.
isn't anyone in tubs -
245
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,833
- outside receptions?
246
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,716
These are long-like
like cypresses.
247
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,117
It looks more
festive with trees.
248
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,398
For example, a tree on each side.
249
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,400
Good, let's get those trees.
So there is no more, is there?
250
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:43,835
Then there is no more.
Then everything should be like this, -
251
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:50,793
- that you will be satisfied.
They will think it is beautiful.
252
00:26:51,360 --> 00:26:58,949
(church bells ring)
253
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:15,354
(fierce push)
254
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,350
It is me! I'll fill up.
255
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:47,076
- A pack of Bellman Cigarillos.
- Bellman, yes.
256
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:54,836
- 4.90.
- I have no less in Danish.
257
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,950
How everything has
changed out here.
258
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:06,074
It's been 30 years
since I last visited here.
259
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,278
I have been abroad quite a bit abroad.
260
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,232
- America.
- Well, well.
261
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:19,470
I had to meet a parcel list Jens
Jensen. Where does he live?
262
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:25,795
A parcel list? Well, the health insurance
fund! It is precisely in that direction.
263
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:32,678
A yellow house with a hedge and a white
picket fence, There is a sign and a mailbox.
264
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:38,040
Yellow house with white picket fence.
And straight up. Thank you.
265
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:42,313
- They don't have a walking stick, do they?
- Nah.
266
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:49,193
- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.
267
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:36,070
(being scolded)
268
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:49,832
What the hell are you staring at!
Take a look and get started!
269
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,312
(he knocks)
270
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,678
Well, just come in!
271
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:00,959
- Oh, good day.
- What do they want?
272
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,755
This is Herbert Johnson.
We talked on the phone.
273
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,872
Well, you are the one who
wants to rent the apartment.
274
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,118
- Don't you want to sit?
- Thanks.
275
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:17,154
I didn't expect you already.
It's not done right.
276
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,716
I had the impression that I
could move in immediately.
277
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:25,835
I didn't know you came right
after. Do you have no luggage?
278
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,879
Yes... my suitcases
will arrive later.
279
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:33,949
I don't really know... I have to
talk to my daughter about that.
280
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:38,358
Karen… Karen!
281
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,552
Karen.
282
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,798
Good day.
This is Herbert Johnson.
283
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:51,393
- Can that man move in now?
- Now right away?
284
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:57,232
- I have to clean up a bit first.
- I could go for a walk in the meantime? An hour?
285
00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:01,354
- Yes, that might be good.
- Then I'll do it.
286
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:08,278
Oh, just a hesitation. We
might as well get it over with.
287
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:14,311
I would like 3 months rent
in advance. I said that too.
288
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:19,350
There has been someone who
wanted the apartment, but you came first.
289
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:23,309
- Do you want the money now?
- Yes, please.
290
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,757
It's just 2000.
291
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,872
Those are my dollars.
292
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:38,000
- 1,2,3,4. Here you go.
- Thank you.
293
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:53,430
It is a beautiful region. A
little inland are the larger farms.
294
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:58,999
Solid well maintained farms.
The owners are decent people, -
295
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,516
- who pay interest
and taxes on time.
296
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,519
There is only one
person that is struggling.
297
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:10,669
He can't make it through the term, says
the neighbour. Hihi, he's smoking out.
298
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:15,670
Then there are the parcel
lists and the householders.
299
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:20,357
They toil and struggle
and just manage to cope.
300
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,478
Hello, hello, You there!
301
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,274
What are you doing here?
It is private land.
302
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:40,751
They are my flowers, You pick!
303
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:46,871
- I thought they were wild.
- God, they are wild!
304
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:53,758
I have sacrificed in expensive judgments to
put up signs. People are tearing them up!
305
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:59,717
I have spent DKK 2,000 in expensive
judgments on signs just this year.
306
00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:04,033
- I haven't seen any signs.
- Do you live out here?
307
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,835
Yes, I have rented
from Jens Jensen.
308
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:14,309
I don't want Copenhageners
to spoil my land.
309
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:18,792
- Doctor Ejegod.
- Herbert Johnson.
310
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:39,116
(a dog barks)
311
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,152
- (the dog whines)
- Shut up, dog!
312
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:14,192
- Excuse me, what are you saying?
- It wasn't for you, for the dog.
313
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:18,951
- Are you the new tenant at Jensen's?
- Yes.
314
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,754
- Hageholm.
- Herbert Johnson.
315
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,589
They haven't come
to hunt, have they?
316
00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:30,271
If you shoot at my piece,
you'll be dealing with me!
317
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,358
I can't shoot.
318
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:38,554
I will teach one such a duke
that if you shoot on my land.
319
00:38:38,720 --> 00:38:41,838
Goodbye. Come on, Quick.
320
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,551
There are enough problems
occupying the minds.
321
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:55,516
Disputes and contradictions.
Martin Hageholm is busy.
322
00:38:55,720 --> 00:38:59,509
He knows people.
He has been a postman.
323
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:05,352
He knows everything and is not
afraid to pass on his knowledge.
324
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,359
You know each
other well out here.
325
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:13,429
One day a stranger came.
Nobody knew anything about him.
326
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:19,431
It was assumed that there
was something wrong with him.
327
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:29,514
Yes, it's just up the
stairs and then to the right.
328
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:42,038
- I can go again, if.
- No, I'm done.
329
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:50,395
- We hope you will be satisfied here.
- There can be no doubt about that.
330
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:54,798
Karen! Karen!!
331
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:36,832
What kind of monkey did
you get living? Copenhageners?
332
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:43,195
More like an American.
He just came from over there.
333
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:49,953
- What is he?
- Well, hard to say, but he has enough money.
334
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:55,314
- What does he want out here?
- Well, he has to be somewhere.
335
00:41:55,440 --> 00:42:01,709
The Copenhageners make expensive time.
And now also in the off-season?
336
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:06,158
What is he thinking?!
People have become complacent.
337
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:11,195
- Have you heard about Anders?
- Anders from the bog? No.
338
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:15,991
He has written to the
Minister of Social Affairs.
339
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:19,715
You got your connections.
He gets no well fare here!
340
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:23,231
It was like when I
was in the help desk.
341
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:28,031
Then the fishermen would
have support. But I said no.
342
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:32,233
Then they complained to
the minister, and then I wrote:
343
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:38,356
"How can a fisherman be
unemployed when the sea is open."
344
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:42,235
Nice one. Well, you better go in
and order something.
345
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:46,558
I have a new lock for my ruses.
346
00:42:46,720 --> 00:42:51,840
- Do you steal your eels, Martin?
- Anders is sneaking around down there.
347
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:58,832
It's burglary if he tampers
with my drugs! Bye. Bye.
348
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,558
- Good morning, Mr. Jensen.
- Good morning.
349
00:43:20,720 --> 00:43:25,920
- Nice weather this morning.
- Yes, yeah…
350
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:32,634
I have allowed myself to borrow a bag.
I'll get some provisions.
351
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,270
You must be allowed to do that.
352
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:44,513
- Good morning, Mr. Jensen.
- Good morning.
353
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:24,310
- Yes?
- A morning set.
354
00:44:31,720 --> 00:44:34,872
You probably got up late today.
355
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,719
Yes.
356
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:43,518
- With or without sausage rolls?
- Sausage roll? Well, with.
357
00:44:43,720 --> 00:44:48,954
- You don't have to.
- No... but with sausage rolls.
358
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:01,278
A morning, with.
359
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:07,473
(singing from the kitchen)
360
00:45:09,720 --> 00:45:14,635
- What's your name?
- Herbert Johnson.
361
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:18,037
- What are they called?
- My name is Alice.
362
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:22,550
- You, Alice?
- You and Alice.
363
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:31,155
(singing from the kitchen)
364
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:44,354
It's the Inn madam. She has been to
a luxury hotel on Costa del Sol.
365
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,350
It can't be your seriousness, -
366
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:05,472
- that a man like you will
suddenly be a burden to the public!
367
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,118
Aren't you ashamed of it?
368
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:13,797
There is nothing dishonorable
about receiving social assistance.
369
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:21,117
Yes, help is help no
matter how you twist it.
370
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:27,075
Good thing your mom and dad
didn't have to experience this.
371
00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:30,790
They would have sunk
into the ground in shame.
372
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:10,915
Yes, Emma, I will
try to apply for it.
373
00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:15,716
In a week's time.
Yes, but that's fine. Goodbye.
374
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:23,436
- What can we do for you?
- I wanted to inquire.
375
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:28,999
Not too good with the hously... Was there a possibility of an
agreement on some kind of half-board?
376
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:33,916
- Is it dinner?
- Yes, please.
377
00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:38,870
We're not used to that here.
Karen!
378
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:45,076
- But it costs a little extra.
- I had expected that too.
379
00:47:45,240 --> 00:47:48,949
- Karen, he wants dinner.
- Now?
380
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:55,076
- No, tonight and so on.
- Could it be done?
381
00:47:56,200 --> 00:48:01,673
It should be
possible, right, Karen?
382
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:07,512
Yes, it is good enough with sun.
But everything is good in moderation.
383
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:13,754
- I think it's comfortable.
- It goes to people's heads.
384
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:19,233
The girls get silly
and do different things if you get what I mean.
385
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:24,793
Now the rack has come up here.
They deplete my hunt for game.
386
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:29,869
- You must do something about that.
- I've done everything!
387
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:35,678
Tried everything. I've shot salt cartridges in
the butts of their rutts.
388
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:39,236
And I have reported the
bicycle smith to the police.
389
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:43,399
He has done his emergency
on our garden table.
390
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:48,714
But the law cannot do
anything without evidence.
391
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:55,030
There was nothing to be done, the
officer said. Only a shit can make that shit. Well, I must move on.
392
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:11,076
Johanne! Him, the American
running around with a fishing net.
393
00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:16,718
He just made himself up, and then he's
running around with something like this!
394
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:19,912
I'll come after him!
395
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:28,439
(there is a knock on the door)
396
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,434
Yes, come in.
397
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:42,474
- I could do that.
- Well... well, it was just a bit of dust.
398
00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:48,672
- Have you finished with the tray?
- Yes, please.
399
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:53,879
- Those were lovely chops.
- It was steaks.
400
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:22,159
Teodor Amsted's spirit lived
on in the home in Upsala-street.
401
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:26,592
He stood in his leather frame
and was involved in everything.
402
00:50:26,720 --> 00:50:29,951
He had more to say
than when he was alive.
403
00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:34,398
He made decisions and
settled questions of doubt.
404
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:41,436
What would little daddy say if he
knew you were now leaving food again?
405
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:49,839
For Teodor Amsted, it was
not important that he was dead.
406
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:56,713
Whether he himself sat in the
armchair made no further difference.
407
00:50:56,880 --> 00:51:03,320
Every month his pension
would be paid to Mrs. Amsted.
408
00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:10,034
But Mrs Amsted was also paid out
a not inconsiderable life insurance.
409
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:14,797
Those left behind
were well insured.
410
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:24,191
Well, it's bed time. Leif the
Happy was fresh in the morning, -
411
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:29,440
- before he went out and conquered
the world. Remember to brush your teeth.
412
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:35,670
Go to sleep immediately.
That made your father so happy.
413
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,798
Good night, little Leif.
414
00:51:56,200 --> 00:52:03,277
Where are you going? If you
come after me, you will get a beating!
415
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:09,430
And if I see you on my hunt,
you'll be shot between the eyes.
416
00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:16,990
Watch your own place instead
of patrolling everyone else!
417
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:24,675
What! Look at that duke! He's
going to get a shot of hail in the back!
418
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,833
- Stop!
- (he fires a warning shot)
419
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:40,631
Hands up!
Well, what's going on here?
420
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:43,599
Around!
421
00:52:43,720 --> 00:52:47,600
Well, is it you, American!
422
00:52:47,720 --> 00:52:53,193
If I had taken you for a buck,
what would you have looked like?
423
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:57,029
It's like in Nebraska!
I got a decent calorie intake!
424
00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,352
It had to have 5 shots.
425
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:04,400
You can jump in the back
and I'll drive you home.
426
00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:07,439
Jump into the King's Lodge.
427
00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:13,590
"Don't let that buck pass
your nose," I said to myself.
428
00:53:13,720 --> 00:53:19,636
Come, Quick, in with you.
Jump up to the American.
429
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:27,439
Like that... Then it got all it
could take. Down it had to go!
430
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:34,358
Take it home to Johanne, then
maybe we can beg for a cup of coffee.
431
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:38,354
It's Johanne, it's
my housekeeper.
432
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:42,075
They mustn't make
all that trouble for me.
433
00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:45,113
It is no inconvenience.
434
00:53:45,240 --> 00:53:50,792
Go ahead and eat. It
holds up well. And it's cheap.
435
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:57,313
Yes, it tastes good.
436
00:53:57,440 --> 00:54:01,752
How much do you
give at Jens Jensen?
437
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:08,360
- 8,000 per year.
- It's too much for that hole.
438
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:16,234
Move up here, here is a nice
apartment, insulated and running water.
439
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:20,678
Close to Brugsen
and the bus stop.
440
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:26,836
And the inn. And then there's
the phone, which you can borrow.
441
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:31,790
DKK 10,000, that's
what I get for the summer.
442
00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:37,831
- I can't move early.
- No, of course.
443
00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:42,113
Now you know if
you want to move.
444
00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:53,312
Yes, that's my daughter.
She died 5 years ago.
445
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:57,718
There is nothing in life when
your loved ones pass away.
446
00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:02,511
She sucked on a blade of
grass, got tetanus and died.
447
00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:08,392
There must have been a bacillus.
- A blade of grass?!
448
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:12,832
It's sad to be lonely.
449
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:24,436
(a cat meows)
450
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:29,914
- Are you the one playing the piano?
- No!
451
00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:36,673
It was my daughter. There was someone
the other day who wanted to play on it.
452
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:40,589
"Nah, the hands
that played it died."
453
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:45,755
"No hand shall
touch it again," I said.
454
00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:55,478
It's my wife.
455
00:55:55,640 --> 00:56:00,760
She was pretty once.
But that doesn't last.
456
00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:04,077
She was no natural woman.
457
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:08,433
When women cannot bear
children, something is wrong.
458
00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:12,599
She was otherwise a good party!
Her dad had a big farm.
459
00:56:12,720 --> 00:56:16,270
But he didn't want
us to have each other.
460
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:19,552
After all, I was just a
mean country postman.
461
00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:25,472
He wrote a will and only
the children could inherit, only the kids.
462
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:29,793
He knew very well that
she could not have children.
463
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:36,718
But I made the wife fat,
and out came the kid.
464
00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:40,760
But the mother died
... that is, my wife.
465
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:44,675
She had her good sides.
466
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:50,910
Then my daughter died just before she
was to be married. Then I got the money.
467
00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:56,200
Then there were boats for the
villa, car and all the pipe clothes.
468
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:59,955
The old man should
have known that!
469
00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:03,351
What do you say, Johanne?
470
00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:05,400
(step on the stairs)
471
00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:12,720
It is the national register.
You are not registered there.
472
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:16,196
- The National Registry?
- You don't have that in the States?
473
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:20,439
It's like holding a census.
474
00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:24,275
- Is it something I have to fill in?
- Yes.
475
00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:28,911
- Are you the one to have it?
- Yes.
476
00:58:29,080 --> 00:58:34,280
- I will do that.
- Yes, so... goodbye.
477
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:44,996
Johnson... Herbert.
478
00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:51,035
Social security number,
date of birth 7.2.24.
479
00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:56,513
Serial number. 1145.
480
00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:04,197
Married… Married. Single?
481
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:07,278
The police are still
working on the case, -
482
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:12,076
- where cand.law. Teodor
Amsted blew himself up.
483
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:19,391
On the same day, unemployed Michael
Mogensen disappeared in Copenhagen.
484
00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:23,838
Yes, we are working
on the case... or cases.
485
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:28,358
We have been confirmed
that the two knew each other.
486
00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:34,835
A lecturer has explained
that they were classmates.
487
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:41,679
The police have established that
there was a connection between them.
488
01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:24,711
If you put the flowers
for father in the vase there, -
489
01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:28,669
- then it will be so
beautiful and neat.
490
01:01:35,240 --> 01:01:40,030
Michael Mogensen,
the friend from school, -
491
01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:45,115
- was good in the class,
they both belonged to the best.
492
01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:49,319
They would probably turn out
to be something, it was said.
493
01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:55,595
But it doesn't matter that much
to be among the best in school.
494
01:01:55,800 --> 01:02:01,273
He thinks of a disgusting
sight out there on the field.
495
01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:22,712
- Hello.
- Good day.
496
01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:27,118
- Tea?
- No thanks, coffee today.
497
01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:31,114
You go right to it.
Do you need something in it?
498
01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:34,716
Sugar, please.
499
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:41,189
- Sugar! How about a little one?
- A small one?
500
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:44,950
Yes, a schnapps.
You look hang-beaked.
501
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:49,790
I'm a bit tired.
A schnapps, please.
502
01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:54,193
Have you been in town all day?
503
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:58,997
- Yes.
- What have you purchased?
504
01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:06,353
A walking stick.
505
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:10,753
You gotta take care of yourself on
top of those ghost stories lately, huh?
506
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:15,312
No, it's just nice
when you go for a walk.
507
01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:21,277
- What do you do when you're not walking?
- Nothing.
508
01:03:21,440 --> 01:03:26,276
- Why not?
- I can't think of anything else.
509
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:35,996
(a car stops, a door slams)
510
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,437
Johnson! Johnson!
511
01:03:55,600 --> 01:04:01,551
Here we go! Anders from the
bog is going in. Come, come!
512
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:09,071
That comes out of
complaining to the minister, -
513
01:04:09,200 --> 01:04:11,953
- when you don't have
pure flour in the bag.
514
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:17,678
Then there will be an
investigation in the papers.
515
01:04:17,840 --> 01:04:22,038
Just demand without giving
anything in return! No, no!
516
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:27,070
You have to give before you can enjoy.
It is my language of choice.
517
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:34,596
It's good for everyone, including him.
And at least for his children.
518
01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:37,678
When Anders wants both
health and social assistance, -
519
01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:41,589
- then the hammer falls.
What's it called, Jens?
520
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:44,360
Social fraud.
521
01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:58,152
It's the little dung hut!
Just forward.
522
01:05:15,080 --> 01:05:19,278
I'll take this one!
523
01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:36,519
Yes, it's him!
Watch out, he has a knife in his hand!
524
01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:39,513
Yes, we disarm him.
525
01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:44,316
Come here, be careful, Jens!
He is dangerous.
526
01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:51,514
There are 3 terms.
Watch out for him!
527
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:13,197
(there is a knock on the door)
528
01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:23,353
Well, Johnson, now the
Copenhageners are on their way.
529
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:28,316
Then there are no problems
with renting out anymore.
530
01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:33,395
- It was good, you came first.
- I am happy to live here.
531
01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:36,712
It's also a nice view.
532
01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:50,954
Karen! What kind of a way
to lie down? Turn around!
533
01:06:53,680 --> 01:06:59,915
I think you use too much light.
534
01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:05,712
They walk too much in the
same places on the floor,
535
01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:13,230
Maintenance such as varnishing
is the responsibility of the tenant.
536
01:07:13,400 --> 01:07:16,950
It is normal custom.
537
01:07:17,080 --> 01:07:21,278
We would hate for the
apartment to lose value.
538
01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:28,272
- I'll probably have it fixed.
- There are enough people who want to rent out here.
539
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:35,359
There are many problems in
daily life that he has not foreseen.
540
01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:38,359
It is not easy to
be independent, -
541
01:07:38,480 --> 01:07:42,439
- when others have
decided everything 46 years.
542
01:07:42,560 --> 01:07:46,679
When he was a child,
it was his mother.
543
01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:51,311
Later it was his wife.
544
01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:54,512
He has been a school
boy for far too long.
545
01:07:54,640 --> 01:07:59,077
It is not out of curiosity that
he has acquired knowledge.
546
01:07:59,280 --> 01:08:05,390
It was duty and preparation
so he could be retired someday.
547
01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:12,079
But here he is of his own free will.
He has made a decision himself for the first time in his life.
548
01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:18,759
He is no rebel, but deep down I
guess there was a little will to live.
549
01:08:18,920 --> 01:08:21,878
A little longing for freedom.
550
01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:26,477
And now he's here, mr.
H. Johnson from America.
551
01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:18,953
You there! Who gave you a
fishing license to fish here?
552
01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:22,789
It's my part of the
bog he's emptying out.
553
01:09:22,920 --> 01:09:27,756
- It's not fish, Mr. Hageholm.
- Well, tadpoles.
554
01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:30,793
I would like to
present them to you.
555
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:34,834
The eels are mine if they
get in the net! And the pike.
556
01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:38,669
Those outside will probably
come by sooner or later.
557
01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:44,557
What's that over in those bushes?
Well… ha-ha.
558
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:21,880
As a child, he
wanted an aquarium.
559
01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:26,955
But his mother forbade it.
It made too much of a mess.
560
01:10:27,120 --> 01:10:33,116
And when he was an
adult, his wife opposed it.
561
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:36,039
Something like that smells.
562
01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:42,350
He is 46 years old now, soon to be 47.
He is too late for everything.
563
01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:30,550
There he is, watch out!
It's him!
564
01:12:36,320 --> 01:12:41,269
Good day, Teodor Amsted.
Criminal Commissioner Skovstrup.
565
01:12:41,440 --> 01:12:44,956
Well, it's out here, you hide.
566
01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:49,398
Watch out, he's dangerous!
Where are the handcuffs?
567
01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:53,235
He doesn't seem to be running anywhere.
568
01:12:55,080 --> 01:13:01,076
Shouldn't we change our clothes?
If you go in, we'll be waiting.
569
01:13:01,520 --> 01:13:06,037
Look, he looks sneaky.
Calm, but sneaky.
570
01:13:08,400 --> 01:13:13,270
He walks just as quietly and
pretends nothing happened.
571
01:13:13,440 --> 01:13:17,195
But he is dangerous!
He is dangerous!
572
01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:22,438
Leif is so loving.
573
01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:27,270
He has inherited his
father's loving mind.
574
01:13:27,400 --> 01:13:31,394
I remember him like that too.
575
01:13:31,520 --> 01:13:34,956
When he was with us for
the first time in Silkeborg, -
576
01:13:35,120 --> 01:13:39,557
- he sat by the lake with
his little spoon and bucket.
577
01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:46,200
Such a beach with aquatic
plants, small animals and water...
578
01:13:46,360 --> 01:13:51,514
A large and flourishing world
for a small child's imagination.
579
01:13:51,640 --> 01:13:56,953
It is also for Leif's sake
that I maintain the old home.
580
01:13:57,080 --> 01:14:01,358
- (the phone rings)
- As long as it's nothing with Leif.
581
01:14:01,480 --> 01:14:07,192
I've been worried about him
since he went to boarding school.
582
01:14:07,320 --> 01:14:12,030
Yes, hello? This is Mrs.
Deputy Amsted.
583
01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:16,598
The police?!
584
01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:21,950
My husband?! What do they say?!
585
01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:25,750
Live? But that is impossible!
586
01:14:25,880 --> 01:14:30,158
My husband? No, no. Oh God!
587
01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:37,597
However, that was almost
the worst that could happen!
588
01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:44,114
You don't leave your
wife if you get along well.
589
01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:48,154
There wasn't an
extramarital affair?
590
01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:52,837
- No.
- We have examined your home.
591
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:57,551
We have, among other
things, found this little document.
592
01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:10,074
"You sit in the narrow cage of the kiosk
and smile sweetly behind narrow windows."
593
01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:14,996
"While I have to stand in the rain
and wind." I wrote that when I was 16.
594
01:15:15,160 --> 01:15:21,600
- What was that lady's name?
- I really can't remember that, she worked at a kiosk.
595
01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:26,118
What did you disagree
with your wife about?
596
01:15:26,280 --> 01:15:30,638
We have never
disagreed on anything.
597
01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:35,675
So it was an arranged game
to get the life insurance paid out?
598
01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:39,509
Has she been paid?
599
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:44,675
- I overlooked that.
- They can't eat us with it!
600
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:50,273
- How much did you win in the lottery?
- Do you know that too?
601
01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:57,158
- The note came out with half a million.
- Half a note, i.e. 250,000.
602
01:15:57,320 --> 01:16:01,075
Why did you keep it a
secret from your wife?
603
01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:06,593
I didn't know what to
do with all that money.
604
01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:11,840
After all, they used them
to live in the countryside.
605
01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:17,114
I hadn't decided to go to the
countryside when I got the money.
606
01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:21,837
When did you decide
to go to the countryside?
607
01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:25,669
After Michael
Mogensen's suicide.
608
01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:31,279
And you are sure that Michael
Mogensen committed suicide?
609
01:16:48,080 --> 01:16:54,520
It doesn't matter, but I don't
remember from the years we studied, -
610
01:16:54,680 --> 01:17:01,029
- that you may not settle in a
new place or change your name.
611
01:17:01,160 --> 01:17:07,350
It is not forbidden. But there is
something else they can hang you on.
612
01:17:07,480 --> 01:17:11,599
There is the life insurance,
which was paid out.
613
01:17:11,720 --> 01:17:17,033
- Yes, I had forgotten that.
- Then there is the tax authorities.
614
01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:21,393
There is the lottery win.
Then there is the one with the pension.
615
01:17:21,520 --> 01:17:24,592
And the wrong information
for the national register.
616
01:17:24,760 --> 01:17:29,038
I also felt guilty
when I filled it out.
617
01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:32,556
- Are you going to defend me?
- Your wife asked me to.
618
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:39,756
- What do I get?
- 5-6 months, if we're lucky.
619
01:17:39,920 --> 01:17:43,436
That sounds reasonable.
620
01:17:44,320 --> 01:17:50,714
Unless they stick with
the one with Michael.
621
01:17:50,880 --> 01:17:54,271
They have gone to
school with Mogensen, -
622
01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:57,438
- and you continued to
come together with him.
623
01:17:57,560 --> 01:18:03,351
Yes, I knew where he lived and
sent some help once in a while.
624
01:18:03,480 --> 01:18:09,556
- What kind of help?
- Some money and my old clothes.
625
01:18:09,680 --> 01:18:15,437
Why was your wife not allowed to
know that you helped Mogensen?
626
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:22,518
She wouldn't like. He said outrageous things
and was not very well groomed.
627
01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:27,231
Was there any reason for
you to support Mogensen?
628
01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:33,959
- He didn't put pressure on you?
- No, we were schoolmates.
629
01:18:34,120 --> 01:18:37,511
How much money did
you give Mogensen?
630
01:18:37,640 --> 01:18:41,474
Small amounts and DKK
5,000 from the lottery winnings.
631
01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:47,591
- Why the 5,000?
- For a better room or new clothes.
632
01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:51,839
- Did he use the money for that?
- I do not know.
633
01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:57,353
That is... unfortunately he probably
used them to buy dynamite for.
634
01:18:57,520 --> 01:19:01,753
- Where did he get it from?
- I do not know.
635
01:19:01,920 --> 01:19:05,595
They themselves were
interested in explosives.
636
01:19:05,760 --> 01:19:12,871
It was professional. I was the secretary
of a military political commission -
637
01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:18,120
- and had to familiarize myself
with certain technical details.
638
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:23,271
And you are sure
that this is the case?
639
01:19:25,880 --> 01:19:30,397
If we have to look at it from a
financial point of view, Teodor, -
640
01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:33,717
- then has your resurrection -
641
01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:39,193
- been a harder blow to
your wife than your death was.
642
01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:42,438
The insurance
sum must be repaid.
643
01:19:42,560 --> 01:19:46,872
She was paid the pension.
There are costs to the case.
644
01:19:47,000 --> 01:19:52,951
Documents must be redone.
You have been declared dead, e.g.
645
01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:56,232
She can get the rest
of the lottery winnings.
646
01:19:56,360 --> 01:20:00,638
You have used some of it.
Michael has got something.
647
01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:04,435
Tax must be paid on
it and a tax penalty.
648
01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:07,871
Your wife wants the
marriage dissolved.
649
01:20:09,480 --> 01:20:13,951
- Of course.
- She won't find it difficult.
650
01:20:14,080 --> 01:20:18,119
Why don't you
want to talk to her?
651
01:20:18,320 --> 01:20:21,392
You do that better
than I do, Victor.
652
01:20:21,560 --> 01:20:27,636
She must sell the flat and
the furniture and find a job.
653
01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:31,475
- What are you doing with Leif?
- He has been sent to boarding school.
654
01:20:31,600 --> 01:20:37,312
Then there is the grave. Michael's
grave was bought for 40 years. For you.
655
01:20:37,480 --> 01:20:42,953
We have to negotiate with
his family about it, if he has any.
656
01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:48,069
It's handy if I'm in
jail during all this.
657
01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:14,958
Before you left the ministry,
you received an express letter.
658
01:21:15,080 --> 01:21:18,232
- Who was it from?
- Michael Mogensen.
659
01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:21,796
He wanted to commit suicide
with dynamite on Felleden.
660
01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:27,950
- What did you make of that letter?
- I tore it to pieces.
661
01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:33,075
- So what did you do?
- Then I went out to Amager Felled.
662
01:21:33,240 --> 01:21:36,790
Why didn't you call the police?
663
01:21:36,920 --> 01:21:43,474
I wasn't sure if Mogensen
would take it seriously, he often talked about it.
664
01:21:43,880 --> 01:21:48,113
So what did you find?
665
01:21:49,240 --> 01:21:53,711
A big hole in the ground.
It was horrible.
666
01:21:53,880 --> 01:21:58,238
They took your watch
and broke it. Why?
667
01:21:58,400 --> 01:22:01,950
I wanted you'd think it was mine,
668
01:22:02,120 --> 01:22:06,751
Wasn't that a bit naive of you?
669
01:22:06,920 --> 01:22:11,790
Had the watch been in Mogensen's
pocket, there was nothing left of it.
670
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:18,030
- No, it was quite thoughtless.
- Otherwise, it looks premeditated enough.
671
01:22:18,200 --> 01:22:23,274
When did you get the idea to
switch roles with Mogensen?
672
01:22:23,440 --> 01:22:26,910
- Out on Felleden.
- Why?
673
01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:32,756
Perhaps the name Herbert
Johnson was also thoughtless?
674
01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:35,520
Yes.
675
01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:39,349
After all, there is a Herbert
Johnson in Nebraska.
676
01:22:39,480 --> 01:22:43,758
Your schoolmate.
His name was Herbert Jensen.
677
01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:48,551
It all looks very well
thought out, Teodor Amsted.
678
01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:51,951
It was cunning to take the
name of a Danish-American.
679
01:22:52,080 --> 01:22:57,917
Then you could enter the system
as a Dane returned from abroad.
680
01:22:58,040 --> 01:23:01,112
It's not that little, you know.
681
01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:04,039
Where did Mogensen
get the dynamite from?
682
01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:08,358
They themselves had to be able
to obtain explosives more easily.
683
01:23:08,520 --> 01:23:12,275
It wouldn't be that easy.
684
01:23:12,440 --> 01:23:16,434
That would only be possible
by violating the regulations.
685
01:23:16,640 --> 01:23:20,679
And someone like you would
never indulge in that kind of thing.
686
01:23:20,800 --> 01:23:24,759
It would be more difficult
for Mogensen than for you -
687
01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:27,520
- to get dynamite, right?
688
01:23:27,680 --> 01:23:30,513
Yes.
689
01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:34,278
You're known for right.
690
01:23:34,440 --> 01:23:39,276
Defendant Teodor Amsted is found
guilty according to the indictment.
691
01:23:39,400 --> 01:23:42,836
The penalty is
fixed for 5 months.
692
01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:46,959
Does the defendant want
to appeal the sentence?
693
01:23:47,120 --> 01:23:52,240
Sir. Judge, I
accept the verdict.
694
01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:25,471
Order has returned to
Teodor Amsted's life.
695
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:29,878
His day is divided.
He has employment.
696
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:32,753
There is meaning in it all.
697
01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:37,397
The work requires
accuracy and order.
698
01:24:37,600 --> 01:24:41,275
It is monotonous, but
no more monotonous -
699
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:45,951
- than work in the
Ministry of Defence's 14th devision.
700
01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:55,557
(a bell rings)
701
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:17,200
Everything is the same as before,
but it's still better than before.
702
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:22,076
Before he was only lonely.
But he couldn't be alone.
703
01:25:22,200 --> 01:25:25,875
He always had to be accountable.
704
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:28,958
Here there are none
of these ailments.
705
01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:32,436
He is protected.
The door is locked.
706
01:25:32,640 --> 01:25:37,589
Whether it is locked from the
inside or the outside does not matter.
707
01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:43,711
Here is safety, order,
regularity and security.
708
01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:49,552
He has achieved
what he trained for.
709
01:25:49,720 --> 01:25:54,191
He has reached the highest
ideal of bourgeois society.
710
01:25:54,320 --> 01:25:58,473
But the blessed state
cannot last forever.
711
01:25:58,640 --> 01:26:04,955
One day he is released and
pushed into a harsh world.
712
01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:10,837
One that he does not understand, and
that he has never learned to understand,
713
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:15,670
There is only one thing to do.
He can commit something, -
714
01:26:15,800 --> 01:26:19,031
- that brings him
back to that prison, -
715
01:26:19,160 --> 01:26:23,950
- that fulfills his requirements for life.
Teodor Amsted smiles.
716
01:26:24,120 --> 01:26:29,991
Because no one in the prison
has any idea that the sociable man -
717
01:26:30,160 --> 01:26:34,916
- has decided to
become a murderer.
718
01:27:01,440 --> 01:27:04,398
(loud music)
719
01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:52,155
I'd like to look at a hammer.
A good, heavy hammer.
720
01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:58,430
Then it has to be this one.
There is a good punch in it.
721
01:27:59,120 --> 01:28:02,795
If you want one
who can pull out nails.
722
01:28:02,920 --> 01:28:07,153
- Nah. What does it cost?
- It costs 15 crowns.
723
01:28:07,320 --> 01:28:10,836
We sell many of these.
724
01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:27,193
- How much does this one cost?
- It is somewhat more expensive... 27.50.
725
01:28:27,320 --> 01:28:32,440
It's also a lovely hammer
with a splendid strike.
726
01:28:45,440 --> 01:28:49,195
(the doorbell rings)
727
01:28:59,800 --> 01:29:02,952
Clerk Amsted?!
What do they want?
728
01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:06,317
They better come inside.
729
01:29:06,440 --> 01:29:11,719
I would have thought you
possessed so much tact,—
730
01:29:11,840 --> 01:29:16,118
- that you had
spared me your visit.
731
01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:20,996
I cannot receive you
after what has happened.
732
01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:43,077
A little gratitude. I ask you
not to seek me out more often!
733
01:29:43,280 --> 01:29:50,118
Now you must go. I just want to
make sure there's no one on the stairs.
734
01:30:05,400 --> 01:30:08,791
(loud music)
735
01:30:41,440 --> 01:30:44,671
Hey, Daddy.
736
01:30:50,720 --> 01:30:53,917
Michael!
737
01:30:57,000 --> 01:31:01,756
- My name is Teodor Amsted.
- What is the case about?
738
01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:06,153
A confession.
Murder and attempted murder.
739
01:31:06,320 --> 01:31:12,589
- You're not drunk, are you, sir?
- The murder weapon is here.
740
01:31:13,080 --> 01:31:18,678
- They confess to the murder of Mogensen?
- Yes, I murdered Michael.
741
01:31:18,800 --> 01:31:21,758
- Extortion?
- He was insatiable.
742
01:31:21,880 --> 01:31:25,032
Why are you now
making that confession?
743
01:31:25,160 --> 01:31:27,834
To protect the world
from people like me.
744
01:31:29,000 --> 01:31:33,039
The guard said something about a
confession of an attempted murder.
745
01:31:33,160 --> 01:31:38,439
Yes, tonight I tried to assassinate
Office Manager Ohmfeldt.
746
01:31:38,560 --> 01:31:42,918
- With the hammer You submitted?
- Yes.
747
01:31:43,080 --> 01:31:46,232
Ohmfeldt nothing happened?
748
01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:49,876
No. I had forgotten
he had a gun collection.
749
01:31:50,000 --> 01:31:53,709
Why would you murder
your former boss?
750
01:31:53,840 --> 01:31:57,754
There has been a lot over the
years. Unreasonable infringements.
751
01:31:57,880 --> 01:32:00,952
Unnecessary humiliations.
752
01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:08,390
The office manager is the authoritarian
type, tolerates no contradictions.
753
01:32:10,000 --> 01:32:14,551
That can't be a
reason to kill him.
754
01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:18,038
For me it was.
755
01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:47,915
- Good night.
- Good night. And thanks.
756
01:33:37,640 --> 01:33:41,190
Look what I bought for you.
757
01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:45,632
- Now I have to.
- It's not heavy... Come on, Leif.
758
01:33:45,760 --> 01:33:49,833
It was nice of you to come
along, Victor. Thanks.
759
01:33:49,960 --> 01:33:54,272
- Have a good time in Silkeborg.
- We're having a wonderful time.
760
01:33:54,400 --> 01:33:59,952
Leif hasn't had fun since he
came from boarding school.
761
01:34:00,080 --> 01:34:04,517
Being at your brother's
house is not work!
762
01:34:04,640 --> 01:34:07,519
You've probably got
the tithe law with you?
763
01:34:07,640 --> 01:34:13,352
Victor! Remember that thing
with my maiden name, right?
764
01:34:13,480 --> 01:34:17,269
Now you have to get on
the train if you want to go.
765
01:34:17,400 --> 01:34:22,349
It is coming home again
to the real surrenders.
766
01:34:22,480 --> 01:34:26,553
- You come and visit us.
- I'll do that.
767
01:34:27,640 --> 01:34:32,589
What are they saying? There
are more than lakes in Silkeborg...
768
01:34:36,880 --> 01:34:44,071
Take care! Say hi to them over there.
And a very merry Christmas.
769
01:34:51,680 --> 01:34:58,837
… angels sing of the
child so beautifully.
770
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:07,000
he has opened the door of heaven
771
01:35:07,240 --> 01:35:14,431
blessed is the song of the angels
772
01:35:14,840 --> 01:35:21,598
blessed is the song of the angels.
773
01:35:22,000 --> 01:35:26,676
One of these men was once a
clerk in the Ministry of Defence.
774
01:35:26,800 --> 01:35:29,758
He had a good position
and a beautiful home.
775
01:35:29,880 --> 01:35:32,872
But he wanted to
try to have freedom.
776
01:35:33,080 --> 01:35:37,950
His life was destined to be
under control... not freedom.
777
01:35:38,120 --> 01:35:42,990
Now he has reached his goal.
He's here for life.
778
01:35:43,160 --> 01:35:47,199
Not all prisoners are as
satisfied as Teodor Amsted.
779
01:35:47,320 --> 01:35:50,199
They have not had
his good upbringing.
780
01:35:50,320 --> 01:35:55,156
They have had too much imagination,
are inharmonious and uncivil.
781
01:35:55,280 --> 01:35:58,989
But for Teodor Amsted,
the meaning of life is fulfilled.
782
01:35:59,120 --> 01:36:02,795
He has no more wishes.
783
01:36:05,280 --> 01:36:11,151
… rejoice every
soul he has saved.
784
01:36:24,160 --> 01:36:27,198
