03x04 - Just Drive

[bunniefuu]

Here’s your translation:
Yes, it went well.

One, two, three! — Put the knife
away when you’re not counting.

— How far can you see?
— *Really* far! Push harder!

— I was thinking of testing the
outdoor toilet. — Of course you can.

— Are the comic books
still there? — A whole box.

There’s a paraffin lamp, if it gets dark.
But we’ll probably have to practice with it.

–I'm careful with matches.
–I know.

–Then we'll see each other in a week.
–Yes.

–Then I'm off, Johnny.
–Bye to you!

–Upstairs now!
–Elsa, your turn. – Johnny, you're on next.

–Look, Mom!
–Yes, I see.

Three, two, one and...

**LUCKYLAND**

Prepare for testing
Component moonracker v4, connection.

–The pressure is too low. Adjust
the valve. –We need at least 200 bar.

–Hi.
–Hi.

–Problem? –No, just
the timing, but we’ll fix it.

–Isn’t Statoil coming today? –I
asked them to come on Wednesday.

We’re already a week late. Do you know
how much it costs to rent the test rig?

But we *have* to finish.


to have for two more days.

—We’ll just have to pay that then?
—With what? We’ve put everything into this.

I sold the car, among
other things. It’ll work out.

—What will you do without a
car? —Take a taxi. Carpool.

Can I ride with you?

Anna? You can get off.

I understand if you want to. You
have two kids to support, and...

We’ll manage.

And one more thing.

I’ve taken out a small loan on my house.

Sture, you... You have to be careful. It
won’t hold up in the long run, and suddenly...

—And I’ve rented it out.
—What?

—I’ve moved some stuff
to the office. —No... What?

I just feel best there.
I love working.

It’ll work out.

Here’s the translation:

--- We’ve looked at different models—–but
this Cobra is the most relevant.

We can certainly negotiate
a bit. Few are investing now.

—For natural reasons.
—Yes, but we *have* to...

Now you have to sit very calmly in the
boat and use the competence you have.

—And when an opportunity arises...
—ROV is an opportunity. That’s our hope.

—Without an ROV, Nyman
Diving isn’t... —*Troll* is the hope.

An ROV costs 18 million, an
enormous investment for Nyman Diving.

They’re hardly used on the Norwegian shelf.
Everything suggests it’ll continue as before.

You’ll thank me later.

—Sorry, I’ve got a k*ller headache...
—It’s his shipping company. He decides.

The board, then? Present it to them.

A ROV costs 18 million.
Training the divers comes next.

Troll won’t yield any profit.
We’ll have to backtrack.

–Should I say that?
–It’s true, though.

OD has lowered the depth limit from


It’s not as well-known as Maasai Mara,
but just as beautiful. Fewer tourists!

In the mornings, you can see
the animals come down to drink.

–Have you ever seen anything
more beautiful? –Look there, yes.

–When did you have in mind?
–We must avoid the rainy season.

But we have a plan at least.
Depending on when you can, of course.

And once we actually leave we’ll
probably stay away for a while.

At least a couple of months.

It doesn’t work. I don’t know if I dare take a
vacation at all, like it is now. —And how is it?

—Christian doesn’t understand
economics. When I try to explain

that purchasing power
is weakened— he

just looks at me with an empty stare.

I know what you’ve said,
and I’ve had patience.

But I have to think about the company.

So you want to find someone
externally? And bypass Christian?

—It’s not a given to become
a shipowner. —No, I know...

—Have you selected
any candidates? —No.

So it’s just you who can
run the shipping company?

Are we going to give everything away
just because you want to go on vacation?

Then Marie will be there in
ten years with worthless shares.

The shipping company? No,
Grandma wanted to see elephants.

Ingrid?

–Hey. Is that you?
–Do you need a ride?

–No, thanks. –Not at all?

–No, I...

I’m not going anywhere.
But thanks anyway.

Would you like to take a spin
then? If you’re not going anywhere?

–Just take a spin? –You
know. *"I don’t know, just drive."*

–Where are we going?
–I don’t know. Just drive.

–Why don’t you drive? –Me?

No, that... That wasn’t
common in my day.

Isn’t it your day anymore?

–You’d have been a great
driver. –You just say that.

But many lives have been
saved by Grandma just cycling.

When she approached
an intersection she’d close

her eyes and mutter:
*"So be it, God’s will!"*

You could have had your own
car. A small Honda, easy to park.

You could have driven into the
sunset, with the music at full volume.

You can choose the music, if you
like. See if you find something you enjoy.

It’s not going entirely as planned.

If you could give us ten more
minutes, it would probably...

Can someone help me?

I’ve compiled a list of creditors.

Ullrigg has been paid. The
workshop has received half.

We’ve been granted three extensions on the rest.
Soon the remaining payments will go to collections.

I’ve spoken to them,
but they’re also in a mess.

Transport—we’ve paid a
third. The rest is overdue.

Then there are the wages.

–I don’t need any. –Then
you can’t pay the mortgage.

You’ll go bankrupt.

–Our house has halved in value.
–What?

We bought at the wrong time, so... Yes.

I extended the loan—

to pay the workshop when
the fourth roughneck backed out.

They’re not coming back.

When the workshop goes into
liquidation, we can’t pay them.

And we can’t
pay the bank for the offices.

–Then they’ll probably
take over the property. –Yes.

I’ve tried talking to them,
but it’s a banking crisis.

They’ve lent out more than they have.

I’ve got some things to sort out
here, but as for the two of you...

Rein, we can’t afford your salary. There’s
high demand for drilling supervisors.

Production isn’t standing
still. You get the job right away.

—I can’t handle it.
—It’s harder in your field.

You!

Can I get a share,
if I put in money?

—You don’t have much money.
—What are we talking about?

—At least a week at Ullrigg.
—How much?



—It must be possible to... —Okay.
I’ll check. Let me check then!

It’s just for the operation for a month,
Rein. A month more or less, that...

I know it’s not
the worst day of your life.

—I’m in trouble.
—Yeah, it’s embarrassing.

I was the one who thought
we should invest.

No one’s at fault. You
didn’t do anything wrong.

We just didn’t succeed. And
that’s what’s really uncomfortable.

Sigh... How much time
do we have left, doctor?

Three weeks. Roughly.

I’m not going down with the ship.

Yeah, like that.

And down, like this. Then
you can adjust the brightness.

Okay? Then you can go to the
bathroom and read *Donald Duck*.

Of course we’ll talk about it. I’m
not doing anything against your will.

—I like it here on the
farm. —I understand.

—but you’re not running
the farm. —I have chickens.

—You have two chickens.
—It’s not exactly farming...

No. It’s breakfast.

Anna’s company is going bankrupt.

The only way out is if I become a
co-owner of the machine I develop.

Anna? She owns
the farm too, right?

Anna has debts. Personal debts,
on top of the company’s debts.

Men it disappears if we sell it. And
you can buy yourself a small plot.

—You can get sewage and water
pressure... —I fixed the shower now.

sh*t in the shower.

Anna, you and I
own this together.

I won’t force you...

I and the kids will plant a forest.

—Forest?
—Yes.

Do you know how many years it
takes before you get your money back?

—It’s not for us, Rein.
—No...

That...

That’s never anything
that’s for us... Svend.

Just... think about it.

Please.

**MARIE’S BIRTHDAY!

** It’s waterproof. You
can have it when you sail.

—Hello, birthday child! Hi! Oh...
—Look.

What a lovely twelve-year gift!

Mom hasn’t come, but we
can sit down anyway? – Jens?

–Where should you sit?
–Here.

Thanks.

–Can I have one too?
–No. You’ll have to wait.

Cheers, Marie. Happy birthday.

–Good?
–Very!

–Hey, hey.
–Hey.

–Beside me?
–Thanks.

–What a nice scarf, Randi!
–Thanks.

–Sorry I’m late. –Not at
all. We’d barely sat down.

Yes... It’s nice to be able to
see each other, all together.

–You and Fredrik were going
away? –Well... yes, that’s right.

I’ve always dreamed of
going to Africa.

I almost went to Madagascar.

The heat, the sunsets
and the wild animals...

The people are so different...

–It sounds like an adventure.
–Yes. It is.

Do you need to get vaccinated?

–Do you take malaria tablets?
–Yes, but it’s no problem.

Be glad for it, because those
who live there get no medicine.

–Isn’t that unfair?
–They tolerate it better.

Have you made any travel
plans yet? A travel plan for...

Ah. No, we haven’t.

We’re looking at different options.
We’ll see. It might remain a dream.

Ah, Solveig... What are your
plans now that school is over?

–She’s going to be a teacher.
At elementary school. –Oh, I see.

–Good teachers are never enough.
–Really?

What if you train too many?

No, it’s a great choice. A top...choice.

–Cheers to Solveig.
–Cheers.

Fredrik is of course absolutely right.

–Does the shipping company notice
the decline? –Yes, of course we do.

It's so sad when families with
children are forced to leave their homes.

Yes, these are hard times. It's
about making the right choices.

Yes, this is the time for sobriety.

People can't just tie themselves up.

–I had thought to slow down, but
not now. –So you're not going to retire?

–It's called "slowing down,"
grandmother. –Oh, really?

No, one must do one's duty.

–What's that orange thing?
–Smoked salmon.

Are you not tired then?
After all these years.

–No, I like working. Actually.
–Me too.

Mom is a workaholic.
She's addicted to work.

–It sounded like something else. –We'll
take Riesling. Solveig, apple mustard?

–Sometimes you just have to endure
it. –So work is the most important thing?

Family is the most important
thing. I’ve always thought so.

Of course, family is the most important
thing. I work so they can have it good.

This family
has really had it good.

–What? Really?
–Yes.

–Everyone has it good.
–Or what?

You can’t just sit there
and be a family all the time.

–But now we are. –Now we
are. So cheers to the family.

–Cheers to the family.
–Cheers.

And cheers to the poor children
in Africa who can’t be here with us.

Cheers.

–We’ll have dessert wine
and... five glasses. –Six glasses.

–No.
–I could imagine a liqueur. Cherry.

And a cherry liqueur.

She sings beautifully!

He mimes.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday to Marie!

Happy birthday to you.

–Shouldn’t the parents have taken her home?
–Toril works in the evenings.

She drank a lot.
You can't work drunk.

–She's the boss, so she can't get fired.
–Do you think that's okay?

–A tr*nsv*stite sings for a
twelve-year-old? –Marie thinks it's cool.

Men det är farligt, Marius!

The h*m* kissed her on
the hand! Marie could get A*DS!

—It’s not that easy to get A*DS.
—You know nothing about it.

No, I think they’re
irresponsible. It’s disgusting!

—Say something then!
—I don’t know what to say.

How do you want life to
be? How do you want it?

Here’s the translation: Maybe
not as normal as you’d like.

—She’s probably calling.
—She’s not really my type.

—Not? Solveig, who’s
so kind? —Is she really?

—I’ll take it!
—Say I’ve gone to bed.

Hello? It’s at
Torstensen and Nyman’s.

—Grandma, it’s for you.
—Oh.

Hello, this is Randi Torstensen.

Hi...

It was a man.

I’ll go get the kids. I
might stay till tomorrow.

—I’ve talked to Svend.
—About what?

If we sell the farm, we
can buy into the moonraker.

And you can pay off your
debts. The forest is quite valuable.

—Sell the farm?
—Your sh*thole farm, yeah.

—Svend lives there. —Svend
can move. And we can too.

You have to make him understand
that we have a chance now.

I can lose everything, Rein.

Moonraker is better than all the
others. It will sell, but it takes time.

—We have to buy ourselves that time.
—Yeah, maybe, but do you have any idea...?

I want to do something proper.
I want to invest in the machine.

I don’t want to struggle
just to afford a normal life.

—Pick up your kids, cook
meals and... —Sorry my family is...

No, f*ck that! Don’t say that!

But you’ve never cared about the
farm. And now we have the chance.

I want to bet on it too.

I’ll talk to him.

You in, Elsa? Jump
now. One, two, three and...

–You have to stretch it.
–Elsa, now you go there.

Okay, are you ready? One, two and...
And jump! A little more. One, two, three.

–Oh, no. Mom’s coming.
–Yeah... Johnny, take over here.

I promised them to plant a
forest, so we measure a bit.

It won’t grow up, but you have
to keep what you’ve promised.

–Can’t she get it? –No,
it’ll probably be cabins here.

They’ve been looking forward
to it. Made measuring rods and...

It’ll be good for Rein to invest.
He likes expensive things, after all.

We can lose everything.

Yeah... The one who dares nothing,
the... The one who wins nothing.

–Do we have to leave right away?
–No, we can stay until tomorrow.

We can stop! Then we’ll get going again.
I’m going to plant a huge forest, Elsa.

Just like that, yeah.
And then you jump a little.

—How much profit do you make from this?
—We’re not selling the farm, Svend.

We’re not.

But Rein, then?

We can’t sell the only thing we have just
so Rein can own a fraction of a machine.

**RUNES TRAFFIC SCHOOL**

Very good. It’s going splendidly.

OD has lowered the diving limit
from 320 to 180 meters.

Much evidence suggests it’s harmful
to dive that deep.

But...

Now there are machines. Subsea companies
are starting to establish themselves.

But the operational shift will be expensive,
especially if you want to keep the workforce.

We have high interest rates
and an uncertain market.

Nyman Shipping & Diving.

We have the capital and
expertise for such an investment.

Nobody is better prepared than us.

Of course, it’s easier to just leave it.

Continuing with divers
on short-term contracts...

Short-term, it pays off.

Thanks to me.

I suggest we take a
short break before we vote.

We’ll meet back here in 15 minutes.

Christian?

–What do you think?
–That it's the right way.

And you bring it up under *Other
Questions*? An investment of 20 million?

*Other Questions*? You should
have listed it as its own point.

Then it would never have been brought up.

Diving is part of Nyman
Rederier, and it’s a real company.

I thought he was proud of me. I
wouldn’t just throw everything away...

–You said it as it was. –Now
comes the century’s humiliation!

Christian...

–My... won’t be coming home
from Iran. –What? Has she said that?

No, she hasn’t said that, but...

–I got angry when she was
home. –It’ll sort itself out.

–I got too angry. –People argue.

Christian has proposed
an investment in ROV.

–and a change in the operation.

The matter was raised under *Other Questions*,
but you’ve been given some time to think.

Those in favor of Nyman
Diving’s proposal, raise your hand.

Ten for and one against.

–Oh, sorry.
–Eleven for.

Congratulations, Christian.

It’s fine. Just press
the clutch down and...

...shift into neutral, and turn the key.

It's going well. Take it easy.

We can have lasagna for dinner, with...

...maybe...

–Ed?
–Anna!

There you are! Good heavens!

–It’s so nice to see you. –What are
you doing here? When did you arrive?

Elsa, Johnny, this is Ed.
Dad’s old boss.

Old friend. Best friend.

How are you doing, young
man? –And how are *you* doing?

Look at you... I have something
for you. From the USA.

Now... This one is
for you, young lady.

And this one is for you, young man.

–What are you doing here? –A little of
everything. Checking the Norwegian branch.

Trying to convince you to
take the kids to the States.

Taking a look at the latest from
NCS. New technologies. Startups.

One company seemed
interesting. Component.

Do you know them?

You impress me, Anna. Leaving the
Oil Directorate and starting a company.

It didn’t work out, Ed.
You came... too late.

What? What does "too late" mean?

Has the bank called in the
loans? Is the company shut down?

–Look, mom! –Clear, set, go!

Holy sh*t! Go!

Okay... The Oil Directorate asked
Phillips to upgrade the drilling floor.

The Norwegian department
head agrees with me.

If the moonrack is as good
as it looks, we want to buy it.

—Is it really that good?
—Yes. Yes, it is.

We just couldn’t
afford to test it properly.

Now you can.

I...

I need to make a call.

Okay, here comes Uncle
Ed! I also want to play.

Don’t run into me!

Hey, Sture. I’ve got good news.
