Christian?

LYCKOLANDET

New attempt with the ROV to connect
seabed installation to the pipeline.

–How deep are we?
–280. The field goes down to 320.

–sh*t!
–Can I try?

Maybe adjust the ROV?
This is the fifth attempt now.

We think it can get the last
valve, but then it fails.

Now it’s there. Then we’ll see...

–We’ll try again.
–We could always send divers down.

Then we won’t show what the ROV can do.

We should show Statoil
that we can connect them?

It doesn’t matter if a diver
checks why the ROV failed?

–We have divers on standby.
–I can go to saturation now.

–Wait a bit.
–You’re a diver, Nyman.

–Are you going to operate the
ROV at Haltenbanken? –Taking over?

Are we going too deep? Try
backing up a few centimeters.

And then try again.

–I’m preparing to descend. –The work
must be done without divers, Bjørklund.

–I don’t understand that. –Why
do we even have divers here now?

We’re supposed to have divers
here during the job, aren’t we?

Om no one objects to
it, I’ll call it a day now.

I have an objection to that.
We’re filming the operation.

We’ll retrieve the ROV, analyze
what’s not working, and try again.

Or we send down a diver
who can see what’s not working.

We can reconstruct it on deck.

We don’t send divers down
to 280 meters for no reason!

Why not?

Out.

—*I don’t want to bury more divers.*
—*We can’t do the job without divers.

* Should we not be divers
anymore? Just press buttons?

This isn’t a routine mission. It requires a lot
of expertise—exactly what you’re getting now.

—*And then what? When we’ve
become experts?* —*What do you mean?

* We get regular diver pay, no risk
allowance. That’s expertise for sh*t pay.

–Is this a salary negotiation?
–Yes, one could say so.

If I leave now, I’ll have **60,000**
with me for the missus in three weeks.

–I have to think about your
safety. –And I think about my family.

We’ve had two kids in three years and bought
a big house when prices were at their highest.

Now the house is worth half, the
interest rates double what they were.

We can’t sell
and can’t afford to stay.

Do you want to risk going
dement at 35 for a mortgage?

–You’re not dement.
–I was lucky.

I’ve been lucky. Except when
it comes to buying a house.

–Nyman. We got it delivered.
–Good.

Good.

What do we do with the
surplus? –We could hire someone.

Here’s the translation: It’s not enough.
The surplus is much bigger than that.

—We could buy some new IT equipment...
—Investments are written off over several years.

If we buy a company with a deficit,
we can offset it against our profit.

If they have anything to offer, of
course. These ones look interesting.

Thanks to you. – Then we’ll see...

—Sture! Anna! Hi!
—Hi.

You were cool yesterday. Do
you have everything you need?

—Yes, thanks. We’re working.
—We’re trying to avoid paying taxes.

—Are you working today?
—I have to check the situation.

—Have you seen it? Cool,
huh? —Yes. Really nice.

Get your name off that.
—It was cool.

If some tax authority sees that you’re
the third-largest buyer of champagne—

–We're going for an inspection.

It’s hard to explain to civil servants
earning a tenth of our salary—

– champagne is an
expense for acquiring income.

–What luck that you didn’t become an auditor.
–It would have been good for the state treasury.

Grandma?

Here’s your translation:
**Here lives Grandma.**

Mom? Mom!

Mom? Mom?

–Did you hurt yourself?
–I tripped...

What?

Those heels...

–Do you want some water?
–I tripped...

Would you rather have juice?

Where’s Grandma? Has she gone to bed?

–She’s on Tobias’s boat.
–Who’s Tobias?

They’re just friends. Not together.

Marie? Come on, let’s go
upstairs and listen to music.

–But mom, really? –She
just needs to rest a little.

You can manage on your own, can’t you?

Yeah...

No problem. I’ll handle
this. I’ll check on her.

–What if she gets hurt?
–No problem.

You don’t need me anymore.

The elevator’s spring released again.

Hey! Elevator!

Hey! Watch out! – Get out of the way!

–Are you okay?
–Yeah.

–Did I do something?
–It’s my fault.

We’ll go through the routines again.

No one was hurt.
Just material damage.

Now we’ll assess the elevator
damage and check the status.

The mechanics will handle the rest. We’re
back in business in a couple of hours.

Isn’t it better to wait a little?

Didn’t you learn
what a shutdown costs?

Yeah... But security comes first.

Yeah, yeah. And now it’s secure.

I wrote my thesis
on the moonraker.

I read a book about water skiing, but I
never even got my a*s out of the water.

—Hey. Need a ride?
—Yeah.

Hop in.

—Hey.
—Hey.

—Hey, boss.
—f*ck...

Marius? What are you doing here?

—I’m under training.
—Why didn’t you ask me?

You’d have given me the job because I’m
your son, not because I can mix c*ck.

—Two coffees, Dwayne.
Table 5. —Yeah, Toril.

Be right back.

—What did I miss?
—I didn’t ask her first.

—Did you quit Statoil?
—Yeah, that’s enough.

Tack. And three-course
meals for all, with extra capers.

And we can take a bottle... Pinot.

Mineral water for us. We have
interviews and must keep our edge.

–Will you interview me? –Maybe
we’ll need someone for the fall.

–We’re expanding.
–No finer words exist.

There’s something about
the syllables. Ex-pan-dera.

I just registered the company—

–and the phone has already started ringing.
Crazy.

Do you think Norway
suffers from Dutch disease?

–How so?
–What’s Dutch disease?

When a country has a natural resource
that dominates its entire economy.

–Is that happening in Norway
now? –Much suggests it.

–What do you think, Per-Gunnar?
–Do you remember Erling, from Handels?

He called last week
and asked the same.

–If Norway were suffering from
Dutch disease. –Did he call you?

He works at the finance ministry.

The government will
certainly create that oil fund.

They need an extra economist.
"Cheap, quick-thinking and literate."

He hasn’t called you? He must have
realized that you’re not so cheap anymore.

–Cheers to us, capitalists.
–Cheers.

It’s good, Anna, that you
finally think of yourself.

And not just "my Norway" and "your Norway."

Widow with two kids in private school.

Then it’s about having the right
focus. I’m proud of you, Anna.

Why should they create the fund right now?

The right-wing government’s days are
numbered, and many want to lower unemployment.

–With increased activity on
the Norwegian shelf? –Yes.

Ju more oil we get out, the more
roads, schools and hospitals there will be.

The politicians can get a bit
wasteful, when they start dreaming.

Isn’t that good? Have you driven
between Stavanger and Bergen?

There are endless landslides and potholes.

Those who fix it get my vote.

–What?
–This is Dutch disease, Sture.

When a country exhausts its natural
resources and ruins the economy.

–Industry dies, exports come to a halt...
–Too bad it has to be so complicated.

–Are you going to take the job?
–No, I’ve just started my own business.

Besides, the state pays so poorly.

–Isn’t that double
standards? –Yes, absolutely.

But we have to invest now.
You’ve done it, now it’s my turn.

Jag lovar dig, Anna, nästa time we meet at
the business school... It’ll be our party.

Those who chose the wrong
industry are drowning in debt.

—Why are you doing this?
—To get money.

You study, live at home, get
money. You don’t need a job.

I’m taking a sabbatical
year. University isn’t for me.

—Maybe it’s not for you.
—You need an education, Marius.

—You don’t have one.
—I never had the chance.

You’ve always been good at
school. You’re good at everything.

You don’t need to work in
a bar. I don’t understand it.

—It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand
it. —Yes, but you need an education.

It’s important to get an education.

–What?
–It’s nothing. Just...

don’t look at me like that.
I get nervous.

You can’t behave like that
if you’re going to work here.

I just think it’s strange that the
two of us should work together.

I think it’s good. Then
I get to see you more.

You don’t have to make me
feel guilty because I work...

Something else might be more important.

–What then?
–Life.

–Don’t you have it good?
–Do you have it good?

I’m doing fine. There’s a lot
to do here, of course, but...

–I manage just fine.
–I don’t think so.

–I don’t understand what you’re
talking about. –Yes, you do.

I tripped because I hadn’t
eaten. And it was packed in here...

We emptied your jewelry box.

Marie was alone at home
and wanted to put on makeup.

Dwayne won’t hire.
He suggests, I agree.

And I won’t be hiring you.
Did you think of spying on me?

Report back to mom and
Christian? Is that your plan?

—I just like to party more than
you do. —That’s not a party.

–How could I have such a fine son? –When
you were working, I was at the prayer house.

Then I continue with the training.

Okay, then we’ll test a Singapore sling.

Hey, Frank. I need a
favor. It concerns Marius.

–How is he?
–He dropped out of university.

–What? Toril...
–Can you just talk to him?

–Your technology is in good
hands. –Thank you a thousand.

I’ll follow you out.

It went well. They were very pleased.

–What are we dealing with?
–Expanding.

They have good ideas, but they’re
not much on the corporate stuff.

We might have to rent more warehouse space.

We can move the drafts to the warehouse first,
and possibly arrange more offices later.

Do you have Texas Mechanics here?
We need the engineers in the house.

What then: "What do we do?"

—We're playing Monopoly.
—Monopoly?

We got lucky, and now everyone lands on
us before they even buy their own property.

We get hotels on Parkveien
and take everything for ourselves.

"I buy it. What then? Two houses?"

"Just two houses? Then I take them too."

"Two houses?
I have hotels on Parkveien."

Monopoly's creator wanted to show people—

how unjust and random
capitalism is.

He underestimated us. Everyone
became greedy idiots. Me too.

—But we create jobs, right? —That’s what all
greedy idiots say. We’ll become filthy rich, Sture.

—I thought we were having fun.

—It was fun. When it was going our way.

Do you want to stop? Start
at the Finance Department?

No, I own all of
this anyway. I just...

Forget it.

Yes, then I’ll...

—Do you have the
code to my safe? —Sorry.

Yes...

—What? —I should...

I needed to file a contract when you
were in the U.S., so I tried guessing.

And came up with 2703?

You usually pick something meaningful.

—I tested the kids’ birthdays...
—I would’ve chosen that.

Now I’m constantly reminded
of the day Jonathan drowned.

I didn’t know we’d have
to sign so many contracts.

—We can change the code. —Yes.

What’s your code then?

—Isn’t that secret?
—No. Not anymore.

—1209. —Why that?

It’s the day you started here.

Oh?

—I didn’t know that.
—No. But that’s how it is.

It was an important day for me.

The day you became a millionaire.

Yes. That too.

I read the GATT agreement. The
customs duty is reduced by 40%.

This could open up textile imports.

I know nothing about it, but maybe
we should hire a consulting firm.

Shipping could explode...

—Have you read the entire
GATT agreement? —Well...

Elisabeth reads it for me
on a dictaphone.

The consulting firm idea is smart.

If you need more staff,
just hire them.

You know best what you need.

—Elisabeth... Thank you for
today. —Thank you for today.

Thank you for today.

Thank you for today.

—No. I don’t see her.
—Try the buns.

–Fredrik, try the buns. –Okay.

Let me see.

They were really good.

I don’t understand why
people eat buns without raisins.

–We’re just passing by and
saying hello. –Can’t we go home?

–We’re here to see when
Marie sails. –But she’s not here.

–Well, maybe she’s sick. –No.

We’ll come by another day,
and check that they’re okay.

The restaurant’s doing well, and Christian
runs the shipping company excellently.

Something’s happening now.

–Hey, are you guys? –Yeah.

–Want to say hi! –Sure.

Have you seen
Marie? She’s great.

–Hey. –Good day.

–Would you like some
coffee? –Very much so.

Randi! We have visitors.

–Hey. –Hey.

What a nice surprise...

Let’s take the coffee on deck.

Yes. That was a good idea.

—Come.
—How nice!

Hey, Randi. I’d be happy
to help with the coffee.

Yes, thank you. I’d love that.

—Did you bake? —Unfortunately,
some pieces have already been taken.

I always put it out
before I serve.

So people don’t lean
over the table with a knife.

What beautiful china!

I never thought
I’d meet a new man.

I didn’t even think it was possible.

It just...

—It looks so improper.
—But that’s how love is.

Only those who’ve experienced it know.

The rest think you’re on
a boat and drinking coffee.

Did Bad Toril ask you to persuade
me to start studying again?

A bar? You can work for me at Shell.

See if the oil industry suits you.

Can I get three beers?

—There’s nothing wrong
with working here... —I like it.

I just want to do something
for myself for a while.

Ambitious. Do you want to invest in the laundry?
Or do you want to start your own business?

No, I don’t iron shirts all
day. I’m also into politics.

–Okay, I can see that.
–Do you mean that?

Go on, just.

You’ve got the aura. Norway’s
second female prime minister.

I thought I’d start with party
leader. But you never know.

Cheers to that.

Then you’ll get another
one of those chains...

–What?
–Well...

Maybe it’s not such a bad
idea. Look at him. He’s happy.

We wanted him to study, didn’t we?

He’s always stepped up. Done everything we
asked for, the coach, the little sister...

It’s good with a break. Find
out who he is and what he wants.

Hey, mom. Do you want something?

Mineral water?

No, thanks. I’m leaving early
tonight. Have a nice day at work.

Marie needs help
cleaning her room. It stinks.

–They're eating breakfast.
–I'm going to shower.

–I don’t need to shower.
–You shouldn’t work.

I have a meeting with Morco, but
I’m taking the memories with me.

You should shower.

Hi.

What is it, mom?

Okay, is something happening now?

No.

–Now?
–No.

Okay, I’ll call you.

We’ll try again later. –Kenneth,
can you give me the book?

Top-notch. Thanks.

It should be...

Come in.

–Hi.
–Hi.

I want to control the drill at Ullrigg
from here. Wouldn’t that be spectacular?

If we can get this to work, we
can control the platforms from land.

Can you hold it for two seconds? –One,
two, three, four, eight, six, three...

–Sorry.
–For what?

For complaining when it’s going well.

It’s nothing.

That’s just how you
are. Not easy to impress.

But if this works even
you’ll be blown away.

Give me that... Top.

Can you help me change
the cash register’s code?

Yeah, no problem. I gotta fix...

Uh... Now?

—Now.
—Yeah.

Yeah, sure. Then let’s see...

Okay. Now you can just...
create your own code.

—I can turn away.
—No.

—Right now?
—Right now.
