Come here...

Come, come.

They're coming over.

- I can't be bothered.

Oh, yes, they're coming.

- Stop it.

Get a grip formy sake, man!

- Aren't I getting married?

Not tonight. You need a shave, you're

unemployed. You don't have a chance.

Hi.

- Hi.

Sit down.

- Wanna dance?

Do I wanna dance?

I'd love to.

Hi.

Hi.

I'm Louise.

I have a girlfriend.

- How nice.

I'm Louise.

I'm Jonas.

- Hi, Jonas.

Hi, Louise.

Can I buy you a drink, Jonas?

Louise?

I have to get going...

Louise?

Louise?

Housekeeping!

- Come back later!

Marius, come here!

Copenhagen Police.

Hello?

Hello, I'd like to report a...

Yes?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Hi, Jonas Bechmann. I'd like

to file a complaint against a driver-

who took me to Hornbaek last night.

He went 180 km/h all the way.

He never switched on the fare meter.

He was in his forties...

I'm Jonas Bechmann.

I'd like to report my wallet stolen.

The Imperial Cinema.

Yes, I understand.

At 9.15 p.m.

Hello, I'd like to block my account.

To block it, yes.

Can you see, if anything has

been withdrawn since yesterday?

Hi.

- Have you seen the new Spielberg?

I could really do with a Coke...

- Listen to me!

The two of us went to the movies

yesterday. We saw the new Spielberg.

You wanted to party, but I'd had

a row with Camilla and took a cab.

I took a cab to Hornbaek.

Are you listening?

You saw me getting into the cab

outside the cinema. This is your ticket.

No!

You didn't, did you?

Did you screw the chick?

She called last night.

- Who?

Camilla.

What did you tell her?

I said I didn't know where

you had gone. 'Cause I didn't.

I don't want to know anything!

If you don't say anything,

it neverhappened.

What did you do last night?

I saw a movie.

What did you see?

- The new Spielberg.

About what?

- Shut up.

It's vital!

- It's vital you get me a Coke.

It's okay.

Now, get lost.

Hi.

Where have you been?

I slept at the summer house.

I saw a film with Michael last night.

You saw a film?

Camilla?

There's a package for you.

Jonas?

Hello. You can't park here.

What?

- It's a clearway. You can't park here.

And don't forget the seat belt.

Hello,

Henrik Linde, please.

Five million?

Is that a problem?

I have to ask you

what the money is for.

We've found a house in Amalfi,

and the seller is a bit eccentric, so...

That's why we do it like this.

You know that's all your assets?

- I know that, Henrik.

Hello?

What will happen now?

What now?

What now!?

Where is it?

What?

- The money. Where is it?

I just gave it...

I just gave it to your...

The guy with the dog.

Who?

Listen, I just paid him.

He took the money and went that way.

Stop!

- He went that way a minute ago!
