The Bothersome Man Page #3

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.

- And the others?|- They're very nice too.

But who do you prefer?

I think everyone's nice.

But it would be nice|to have a bigger place.

Three rooms,|and maybe a bathtub.

At my place there's only a shower.

Hello?

Hello?

Nordby called and invited us|to the go cart track on Saturday.

Yes, sounds nice.

We met in the men's room.

You complained|that nothing tasted anything.

Nothing tasted any good.

You were quite loud.

You went on and on.|You talked about hot chocolate.

Sorry about that.|I've calmed down now.

- Let me in.|- Could you please leave?

- Let me in.|- Do I have to?

Yes.

I don't want to make any trouble.

Could you please leave now?

You can't tell anyone about this.

I found it a couple of months ago.

- Where does it come from?|- From that hole.

- There's a small light.|- Don't touch anything.

It could collapse.

- You can't tell anyone.|- Of course not.

Everything fine?

You seem a bit uncomfortable.

Too much work?

I miss so many things, Hvard.

The new lamps have arrived.

I miss seeing children.

And hot chocolate. Nice and hot.

I was just thinking about children.

Do you remember|what a baby looks like?

I have to work late tonight.

- Lf that's OK with you.|- Of course.

I'm not sure how late I'll be.|Don't wait up.

OK.

You can't do this.|We'll get caught.

We'll get caught!

You can't be here.

I think I smell something.

- There's something there.|- You have to go. This is mine.

- You have no right to be here.|- What are you going to do about it?

- Did you smell something?|- Yes.

A nice smell?

A nice smell.

- That's enough.|- Right.

The coffee?

- This is better.|- Much better.

Hello.

Hello.

I need to talk to you.

- We had to make certain changes.|- Who's he?

- He's not half as good as you.|- Am I fired?

We don't to look at it like that.|Lots of people change careers.

I know an architect who started|working in a cafe. He was happy.

It's been nice working with you,|Andreas.

- Good luck.|- Thank you.

Come here.

Hello!

Hello?

- What's the matter?|- There's a smell, and we hear things.

It's nothing. There was a leak,|and I had to do some plastering.

There's nothing going on here.|I don't know what you mean.

- We want to join in.|- We have repaired the leak.

- We want to join in.|- You can come later.

I can smell something.

It was just a string of coincidences.|I'm not involved in this.

I suggested we leave it be,|but he wanted to expand.

It wasn't my idea. I like it here.|There's no need to take me as well.

You're free to go.

Most people are happy here,|Andreas.

They think it's a nice city.|They have everything they need.

People are happy.
