01x01 - Aarmand Island

[bunniefuu]

Hey.

My name's Josefine.

How about you?

You're cute.

Yeah.

So they left you here all alone?

Good girl.

Oh. Oh.

Come on. Now.

Josefine, we've gotta go, okay?

Share those with your sister.

Shouldn't we have gotten something
for her?

That's a cute dog, hon.

But you shouldn't pet dogs you don't know.
We've already talked about this, remember?

But Mom,
it's precisely the kind of dog I want.

You'll get one
when you're old enough to look after it.

But you also said that last year, and now.

So when am I old enough?

Don't ask me. I'm on Christmas break.

- Your Mom decides.
- Never!

Mom.

Hon, it's a giant responsibility.
You're still too young.

Okay? But we got you a really nice
Christmas present this year.

You're gonna love it. Come on.

Get in the car.

Christmas break. Ready? To the ferry.

Please return to your vehicles.

- I'll figure it out.
- Time for a new car, Dad?

- Time to go out and find a job?
- What do you mean?

- I think it is, punk ass.
- Don't call him a punk ass.

Why shouldn't I? Do you realize...

You've been stuck
in the same f*cking job forever.

Hey, Kasper. Stop now.

- Anyone needs a job, it's you.
- Did I hit a sore spot?

- You're the one who got worked up.
- Hey, waiter!

Ask her where it is.

This place sucks.

Wait a second. I'll ask her now.

Hi.

We're looking for Skovvangen 1.
Our GPS doesn't seem to be working, so...

It's across the island.
Just follow the coastal road.

Perfect. Coastal road. Did you hear that?

- Perfect. Thanks.
- Yeah, thank you.

- Merry Christmas.
- I said I'd figure it out.

Yeah, whatever.

You're sure about this?
She said the coastal road, love.

But now
we're cutting across, okay? It's easier.

♪ Dashing through the snow... ♪

So, is there even a town here?

- Where are all the shops?
- All the shops?

- Where's everyone?
- What do you mean "everyone"?

Uh, I mean the other people, Dad.

Why do you need other people
when you've got us?

You're having Christmas with your family.

I brought your Curious George books.
You loved those.

You loved that adorable monkey.

So funny, Dad. So freaking funny.

Your big brother adored Curious George
when he was little.

He'd walk around without a diaper
and sometimes he'd poop on the floor.

Why are you laughing?

- You're so dumb.
- Come on. Let's sing along.

♪ Oh, what fun it is to ride ♪

- Come on, sing along.
- Are you guys with us?

♪ La, la, la, la, la
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta, ♪

Come on, Jose. Sing it, cry baby!

- Hey!
- Jingle bells, jingle bells...

- Come on, sing!

- Stop it!
- What's wrong with you, little sh*t!

- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- Not while I'm driving.

sh*t!

- Are you okay?
- What was that, huh?

♪ One horse... ♪

What's that?

Is that tar or what?

Does tar look like that?

Oil or something.

Could it have been from the ferry?

There's some scratches.

I don't think so.
I think they're old scratches.

So you think
this is just tar from the road?

Yeah,
it kinda looks like that, right?

We don't know. We could've went over it.

The car's still running fine,
though, right?

Yeah...

There's more over here.

Hon, don't go wandering off.
Stay right here.

Maybe test it out and make sure it's okay.

You see the fence?

It'll be fine.

Mads, someone's coming.

Hey!

Get away from there! Now!

Josefine, come.

She shouldn't walk around out here.

We know. We were just...

- And you can't stop here.
- I know. We were only...

Listen, I...

I stopped the car for a very brief moment.
I thought we'd hit something.

I... I apologize.

Come, hon.

Get your kids and go back to the car.

We hit a pothole.
I had to get out and check.

It's a private road.

If it's such a problem
when people stop for a two minutes,

maybe you should put signs up.

Have you thought of that.

I'm sorry. We didn't know.
We are here for the holidays.

- My name is Charlotte Svane...
- It's fine, but you gotta go.

Yeah, we're headed to, Skovvangen 1.

So I think we've just got to go straight...

Next time take the coastal road.

Yeah.

Thanks for the help.

Uh...

What's behind the fence over there?

Come, Josefine. Get in the car.

Such a pleasant man
we just met back there, huh?

He said we should
take the coastal road, love.

That's what I've always said, kids.

Countryfolk are lovely. They really are.

♪ Oh, how fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open... ♪

Well, this is, uh...

Maybe it's not
exactly like the photos, but still...

- Well, is there electricity?
- No, there isn't.

When you take a dump in the morning,
I'll dig a hole for you in the backyard.

Seriously?
You've got to be kidding me.

We are not gonna pay
full price for this, love.

Hon, come.

Try now, hon.

- Doesn't work.
- And now?

Only in here.

- Uh, I wanna be in that room.
- That one's Kasper's.

Yours is down by me and Dad.

- Hon?
- Mm-hmm.

There's only one fuse left.
So we're gonna have to go get more.

- Has anyone seen the Wi-Fi router?
- No, Kasper.

Because there isn't any Wi-Fi.

Learn to cope.
Do a puzzle or go play with a stick.

Can you help me with the bags?

Pretty cozy, huh?

Uh, I'm gonna go out
and have a look around.

Uh, wait a sec, hon.
First we've gotta unpack.

Then we'll make some decorations.

Then we'll figure out what to do next.

sh**t.

Oh.

You could try making
Jacob's Ladder instead of that.

I don't want to make
a stupid Jacob's Ladder!

Is this hard for you, kid?

For Christ's sake.

- Making these decorations?
- Then make marzipan instead.

- Hi!
- Hi, where you been?

This place is cool.
There's this creepy barn.

And there's all this old stuff
and tractors inside.

A barn? Where is this barn?

Don't run off without telling us
where you're going, alright?

Take your jacket off and sit here.

Look here, Kasper.
I'm making a pimped out Christmas card.

- It's just pure gold?
- Straight up gold, yeah.

- That's cool.
- Thanks.

Hey, love, can you hand me the scissors?

Okay. Yep

Alright. You make a paper star.

We've got paper, glue stick,
and all the spiced cookies you want.

Thanks.

Uh, we did hit something in the car.

- I really don't think we did, love.
- It was just a pothole.

But I heard this sound, though.

No, I don't think you did.

If we'd hit something, we'd have seen it.

Then, what about the black stuff?

Now, Jose. Come help us out.

Okay? You love making these.
It's relaxing. We're on vacation.

Well, you're on vacation!

- Jose!
- I don't want to.

I don't like. You always decide.
You never care about what I want.

That's not how it is.

Yeah. You're so annoying, you know.

Hey! Josefine.

- Where are you going?
- I'm going to the fence.

- No, no, no. Put the bike down now.
- No, I'm going.

Listen to me. No one's going anywhere.

We hit something. What if
an animal's there bleeding right now.

Then that's how it is. It's a private road
and they told us not to go there. Don't!

- Dad?
- Yeah, I'm with your mom.

You heard what he said to us,
so put down the bike and come inside.

Jose.

Go to your room and calm down. Now!

It's not funny, Kasper. Move along.

Hey, do you work here?

Yeah.

Uh, well I saw you
down at the harbor this morning.

Do you need help or...?

Uh, yeah. Um...

- We need some fuses like these here.
- Over in the silver box there.

Thanks.

Hi.

- Svane?
- Mm-hmm.

You're the ones
who rented Jespersen's house?

Yeah.

It's not often
we get tourists on the island.

Ah, is that right?
It's so gorgeous here, though.

I'm Charlotte.

Karen. I run that shop there
with my granddaughter.

I heard from Møller
you had an accident in the woods.

No, I think we just hit
a hole in the road. It was nothing.

Stay on the coastal road.

Do you know anywhere
we can buy a Christmas tree.

We're gonna be staying for Christmas,
so, uh, we thought that...

No.

We believe the trees should remain
where they do best.

In the woods, in the ground.

- Alive.
- Yeah. Yeah. Climate!

Stay on the coastal road,
and come to me if anything's unclear.

That way you'll have a nice time.
Until you're back home again.

We're here for...

the holiday, me and my family.

Mm-hmm.

Well, I could use some help
finding fun stuff to do here.

- If... If you're off work at some point...
- I'm not.

So you never get time off, or...?

Oh, well. I just thought...

Yeah. And thanks for...

Um...

Sunrise. Tomorrow. At the harbor.

Yeah.

See you.

Can I come in?

Hon.

We're your parents.

And it's our job to look out for you,
okay? To protect you.

And maybe we're overly careful with you.

Every time you go out
and do what you want,

you end up with a broken arm
or something crazy, you know?

I'm not a child.

Uh...

Listen, I think you're cool.

I really think you are.

And I understand why you wanna be older.

But, um... But you don't have to be
in such a hurry, okay?

Look...

Come and join us in the living room,
'cause we'd like that. Okay?

Everything's alright.

Yeah, well, we ran over something.

And I saw more of that black goo
out there in the field.

Come out when you're ready. Okay, sweetie?

Come here. I'm gonna help you.
