That isn't bad!

If you want any other

sandwich toppings, let us know.

We can get you anything,

except that chocolate stuff.

That's too sweet.

Or goose liver.

That's way too expensive.

What do you usually eat?.

Keep going.

Your little brother...

Is his name Daniel?

They won't let you see him.

Do you know why?

They don't know if you're f***ed up.

If you're dangerous.

Are you?

Are you?

You want to find out?.

I don't even know if I like you.

A cigarette would be nice.

You can forget about the house rules.

We can come and go as we want.

They can't do anything about it.

- They aren't exactly our parents.

- Do you have siblings?

Not that I know of.

Holy sh*t!

Hey!

- What are you doing?

- Holding my breath.

- On the edge of the roof?.

- I'm not afraid of heights.

You concentrate so much on relaxing,

that everything else stops up.

It's like time stands still.

Time stands still?

What if you concentrate super hard?

Can you go back in time?

Hello!

Hello.

Nut case.

Clearly.

Do you have bothers or sisters?

No.

Good for them.

I'll never get any, either.

We lost my mother.

Lost?.

Where?

On the ferry to Denmark.

He's lost his bother..

They just won't tell me where he is.

Maybe they don't know.

No one knows where anyone is.

No one is together.

Everyone is somewhere,

but no one knows where.

That's when it would be nice

to have a dog, or something.

- Don't you have a key?

- Do you?

Find one!

Dad?

No, I'm more of a dog person.

Cats freak me out.

Piece-of-sh*t cat!

Nice.

One for dad...

One for mom...

And one for little brother.

And one for myself.

Dad?

Dad?

Terje?

Wait, Terje!

I got new sneakers!

It's not like she needs them anymore.

- They haven't found her yet.

- What?.

Fantastic!

What will you do when she shows up?

You've already buried her!.

She'll be shocked!

It's good your dad

has some strong pills.

What?. Missing people

sometimes turn up again.

It's true.

Like that piano man in England.

He turned up on some beach.

He had lost his memory. Took ages

to find out where he was from.

Your mom may be walking around on

some beach, oblivious. You never know.

No, you don't.

Maybe I could borrow them?

Medicine, medicine, medicine...

Come on!

He'll figure it out soon enough.

- That she's dead as a dodo?

- Yeah.

You don't need a reason to be happy,

as long as you are happy.

Dead as a pollock.

Knock it off.

Dead as a blue whiting.

Blue whiting?

Is that a fish?

You bet!

Blue whiting.

Everyone who's happy, can

All belong to Happy land...

Everything will work out

for all of us!

Terje?

He's my uncle.

For real.

He lives with my mother's sister..

He's going to let me live with them.
