He's seventy and still playing.

Look at Michael Laudrup.

He's our age and not playing at all.

That schmuck retired way too soon.

You need to get out more.

To feel you're still alive.

- At the reunion, maybe?

- I told you, I'm not going.

You're going to that party

and so is Andreas.

What's the matter with you?

Is it the speech?

What am I supposed to say?

That I have hemorrhoids?

- I can't even pull my own wife.

- I'll tell you what we'll do.

We'll go away for the weekend,

the three of us.

We'll go out, flirt with the ladies.

Next day we'll go to the reunion -

- and you give one hell of a speech.

Say yes. It'll work.

Your hemorrhoid ointment ...

Want me to put it in your sponge bag?

- Daddy ...

- Not now.

- It won't open.

- What is it?

My graduation cap.

The lock is busted.

Daddy? Daddy ...

Leave off with the damn glasses!

There! Thanks.

- You're welcome.

- I just needed some more light.

Daddy ...

- Daddy ...

- No way I'm wearing that.

Daddy? Daddy!

Wait a minute, goddammit!

Give me a moment's peace!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry ...

- I know.

- You know what?

It's hard for me to love you

when you keep hating yourself.

- Hey.

- Hiya.

- Not exactly a p*ssy wagon.

- No, but it's great for families.

- Hi, Laerke.

- Hi.

Here. You'll want something

to show your class-mates, too.

Right.

Have a nice trip.

Everything all right?

- Hi, Laerke.

- Hi, Andreas.

Hiya. Hi, Niels.

Are we off?

Take it easy.

Sorry.

- What's in the canister?

- Helium. I'm in charge of balloons.

I'm supposed to sing a song

and Niels is giving a speech.

Thank God I'm not the one. Having

to look a fool in front of the class -

- and be laughed at

for the next twenty-five years.

Thanks for giving me writer's block.

Just take some helium, then.

- Sh*t, I'm so excited.

- It's gonna be great.

- Why're you sitting on a swim ring?

- I've got hemorrhoids.

So, are you and Laerke

back together?

- We're not together.

- Then what are you?

- Friends with benefits?

- What's this?

- Put that back.

- Do you use it on your way to work?

Well, my nose hairs are growing.

And my ass hairs are growing. You

should mention that in your speech.

- I told you to put it back.

- Goddammit.

Will Hanne be there?

- No idea. We don't talk anymore.

- Not at all?

No. She left me, so she's the one

who should stay away.

- I'm not sure she'd agree.

- Just avoid each other then.

- And what about Victor?

- That's the worst part.

It's so tough

only having him part time.

I hate having to return him to her.

But don't you appreciate

all the free time you have?

Unlike you,

I happen to like children.

Who says I don't like children?

Then how come
