The Bothersome Man Page #2

Synopsis: Forty-year-old Andreas arrives in a strange city with no memory of how he got there. He is presented with a job, an apartment - even a wife. But before long, Andreas notices that something is wrong. Andreas makes an attempt to escape the city, but he discovers there's no way out. Andreas meets Hugo, who has found a crack in a wall in his cellar. Beautiful music streams out from the crack. Maybe it leads to "the other side"? A new plan for escape is hatched.

- I have to run some errands in town.|- OK.

I'll see you later.

Bye, then.

I'll walk you to the door.

- I had a nice time tonight.|- The film wasn't too good.

- It wasn't that bad.|- It was nice anyway.

Are you uncomfortable with|me living with someone else?

No.|We haven't done anything wrong.

And what if we did something?

No.|It doesn't bother me.

Unless it bothers you.

I guess I should go to bed.

- It's late.|- And we have work tomorrow.

Can I see you again?

Yes. That would be nice.

We should probably|get back to work.

I'll wait here a while.

So no one sees us together.

- Wouldn't it be nice not to hide?|- It would.

Do you want anything?|Cake?

Yes, please.|That would be nice.

I've met someone else.

- What do you mean?|- Another woman.

Why?

I fell in love with someone at work.|I didn't plan to.

- I thought we were happy.|- We were.

- But then I fell in love.|- Why?

I'm going to leave you.

We're having guests on Saturday.

I haven't found an exact time,|but I wanted you to know.

Are you leaving before Saturday?

- I can stay until Saturday.|- That would be good.

Ingeborg.

Ingeborg?

- Sorry.|- Andreas? What are you doing here?

- Come down.|- What?

Come down.

- I was already in bed.|- Come with me. I have a surprise.

- I can't go out dressed like this.|- You look terrific.

This was a nice surprise.

This isn't the surprise.

I've left Anne Britt.

I told her I was in love with|someone else. I had to.

So now we can move in together.

- Aren't you happy?|- Well, yes...

We don't have to meet in secret.

That's good.

I hope you didn't leave Anne Britt|for me?

Maybe I did it for me?|It didn't feel right.

Not by Anne Britt or by you.|It felt wrong.

Is something wrong?|I thought you would be happy.

I didn't know|we had that kind of relationship.

- A serious relationship.|- No...

Is there someone else?

- Who?|- Is that important?

- It's Lars Birger down in reception.|- The fat one?

He is just a little big.

And then there's Tom.

He lives in my building.|I don't see him that much.

It's no big deal.

- And then there's Jens.|- I'd rather not know.

I can't criticize you. I was living|with someone else when we met.

So I really can't say anything.

- Are they important to you?|- Who?

- Lars Birger and the others?|- No. But it's nice.

Would you dump them for me?

I could do that.|It's nothing serious.

- Would you do that?|- Yes.

But do you want to?|We could find a place in town.

Would you like to see|the dessert menu?

Do you want to move in with me?

- We could do that.|- But what do you really want?

Am I more important to you|than Lars Birger and the others?

You're very nice.
