Yes, I'd rather get that.

But I don't know...

But what if she was beautiful?

I don't know.

-But...

-An even 2000?

OK, just this once.

Let's see what Olof's got!

-Watch out, you rascal!

-You bastard! Ape!

I'll run for help.

Lift, goddammit!

Does it hurt like hell?

Get a ride, dammit!

Hello!

Come with me. There's

been an accident by the sawmill.

-He's not that badly wounded.

-Shut up. Turn off the saw!

Carry him carefully! Careful!

Careful...

There, there....

Now we're going to the doctor.

Which doctor?

The doctor, dammit!

The infirmary, idiot!

Poor lad.

You'll have to figure out

something to do until he's back.

Given that it's not

that serious with Oskar.

You don't want to

lose any wages, right?

Yes...

We have to be

more careful in the future.

Yes, well...

If you're just careful

there won't be any accidents.

Unless there is...an accident.

No, but they

have to have their timber!

Let's hope for the best.

It's a waste

to just let the saw stand idle.

Not for my sake.

It doesn't make sense

for you to go home.

You make the decision,

but it would be good

if you could load the wagon today.

You'll have to get by.

I won't deduct the hours

that Larsson is gone.

You can tell Larsson

that nothing will be deducted.

Nothing will be deducted...no.

It's big. It costs at least 2.50.

But it will only happen once.

To Oskar, that is.

You read, Olof.

I don't see too well.

"The Lord has, in His

infinite mercy, through an accident,"

"called to Him,

our beloved son and brother,"

"Oskar Emmanuel Larsson."

"Born the 27 January 1902."

"Died the 3 February 1916".

"Johan and Louisa Larsson,

F Petersson,"

"Lars, Anna, Britta,"

"Karl, Stina, Gustav."

You're careful, right?

I was thinking...

I'd like to work the saw.

This is no job for me.

So you want to let others do

what you don't want to do yourself?

Lift, dammit!

Lights out, dammit!

You should study English. That's

useful in America and at sea.

It would be much better

if people couldn't read.

It turns everyone

into Socialist bastards.

I knew a man

who read evenings and nights.

It finally drove him mad.

You have to have education

to be able to stand it.

IN DEFENCE OF ROYALTY

THE STRUGGLE FOR BREAD

We're making quick progress, I see.

My, my... That must be three sacks

you've managed to do in half a day.

-That's diligent.

-It's 15.

15? And they were big ones, as well?

Yes, they were big.

I knew that you were that kind!

Pick up the sack and

don't just stand there like a fool.

No.

That kind of talk

won't do at my saw!

I don't give a damn about that.

You could have stayed

until the end of the day.

-No, I have to go now.
