The Restaurant (2017–…): Season 2, Episode 10 - Begravningen - full transcript

Peter and Ester have destroyed Helga's will, having discovered that Helga left the running of restaurant to Nina. Stickan wants to cook the food for Helga's funeral service, but Calle is ...

A stroke.

Part of me thinks if mom
died, our life would be easier.

Were you at the club yesterday?
Do not lie to me!

- Will Nina and Peter share it?
- No.

- Sometimes you have to make choices.
- And I did it.

There is a will somewhere in this house.

- She wants to keep us out.
- Let's destroy it.

We have won, and done so with a clear majority!

- What a great result!
- Margareta, we were talking.

You sent my men to Mirko.

- Give me 10,000 crowns and we're good to go.
- Never!



I will solve this matter.
Luisa, don't worry.

I started doubting the path
that I have chosen in my life.

I think you should talk
of your testimony to the community.

I've been doing this for you for five years!
I screwed up my career!

Inaugurations, awards.
She likes all these things.

I always try to hide the fact
that I was born in poverty.

Push! Push!

- What's happening?
- Get out of the room now!

- Have you seen Calle?
- He's gone.

Please tell him I'm at the hospital?

Now rest in peace.

- Hey!
- Where have you been?

I went back home.

- How is she?
- She died an hour ago.



Sweetheart...

- Are you going to stay here?
- Yes.

I have to go home.

We'll talk later.

Episode 20
The Funeral

Early this morning, our mother Helga
has left us forever.

The funeral will take place next week.
Dinner will be held here in the restaurant.

- Any questions?
- Condolences, director.

Thanks.

Well that's all.

- Peter, can we talk?
- Sure.

- Have you heard that Ragnarsson is dead.
- What?

- Murdered, they say.
- No.

If they wanted to kill someone,
Ragnarsson would be first on the list.

I just wanted to tell you that ...

you have always been right. You, Ester and Calle.

I don't listen to others, and I think only of myself.

As for work, from now on, the restaurant will be my priority.

- And we can now start with a clean slate.
- That's not really true.

Why not?

We inherited mom's share, so the DK's ownership has changed.

- I hadn't thought about that yet.
- Really?

No, mom was still alive last night,
why should I have been thinking about her share of DK?

Ester and I will have the majority.

What?

Now I see that it was worth it, buying Gustaf's share, huh?

- That already belonged to Henriette Winters, and her demand was it be done quickly.

Nonsense. You were in a hurry because you didn't want me to have time to get money together to buy a part.

But it paid off for you; I see that very clearly now.

Then let me make it even more clear:

There will be no place for you at DK.

I built this restaurant with you.

It's my life.

Now it's Esther's and my turn.
You will have to find another life.

I see.

He wants me to testify at a meeting of my conversion .

- Ok ... but isn't that a stupid idea?
- I'll see how.

I haven't been honest. I...

I told him about the abuse,
but not my impulses.

- I didn't say that, because now I'm healed.
- You don't have to say that.

You are right. There is no need for them to know.

- For Märten's sake.
- Yeah.

Hi, honey.

- How are you?
- They kicked me out.

- What?
- Peter kicked me out of DK.

- He can't do that.
- Yes, he has a majority now.

But...

- Svensson Löwander.
- Hi, I'm Sonja.

- Wrong time?
- Yes a bit'.

- We should meet, I think.
- Yes.

- Tomorrow, one o'clock?
- Yes.

- Well, sorry for the trouble.
- I'll see you.

It was Sonja.

Björn had a fight, tomorrow we have to
go see the principal.

- Hi.
- Hi how are you?

I hope I didn't bothere Erlander too much on election night?

I have a meeting now but I want to talk to you.

- This afternoon at 4pm okay?
- Yes.

- What is it about?
- Your future here in the office.

When we were young,
we were like you and Nina.

- I see.
- But we did not dare to do what you and Nina have done.

Or rather: not Helga. Who knows,
by now maybe we would be happy.

There are no magic formulas
for happiness.

Do you want good advice?

If you get angry with someone, don't be embittered
year after year, like I did.

- When's the funeral?
- Next Thursday. Dinner will be here.

- I can make it myself.
- No.

- I offer myself.
- You have to go to the funeral.

I hate funerals.
I wouldn't have gone there anyway.

No? Not even Helga's?

- Do you think I'm not capable of making a dinner?
- No, I'm not saying that.

I want to take care of it!

Backe?

I thought the same thing,
but I couldn't refuse.

- He was Helga's closest friend.
- God protects us.

For this I would be very happy
if I stayed in the kitchen to check.

I see.

He will probably prepare the dishes
which Helga liked best.

- I get it, everything will be fine.
- Thanks.

- Luisa.
- Huh? Yes?

- He spoke.
- No way!

- Yes, he spoke, he said "dad".
- Did he really say Dad?

- Everyone believes what he wants.
- No, no.

He talked to me, didn't he?
Because he is a genius.

It's the new Da Vinci, The new Bernini,
the new Giuseppe Verdi.

- The new ...
- Angelo. He's a Rigano. I would say that can be enough.

I'll go.

We stay here instead, right?

Police. We are looking for Angelo Rigano.

- Were you waiting for someone?
- No.

It's the police.

- Would you like some coffee?
- No thanks.

A man named
Curt Ragnarsson is dead.

- Yes.
- Did you know him?

I didn't know him, but we ...

"But we" what?

When I came to Sweden he got me a job.

Seven years ago.

You haven't had contact with him since?

Yes.

But I've already told your colleagues.

And what did he say?

Ragnarsson looked for me two weeks ago...

and wanted me to hire at work
two of his men. Is...

- What did you say?
- That I couldn't do it.

I have nothing to do with murder!

How do you know it was a murder?

Is...

I don't know, but I've heard people say it.

You may think that I am in a hurry.

But Helga asked me
to draw up a new will.

- When?
- One month ago.

She took it away but she never brought it back signed.

- Have any of you seen it?
- No, not me.

- No, me neither.
- Me neither.

Search Helga's apartment.
And also in the bank box.

- But what did the will say?
- Unfortunately I can't reveal it.

The apartment and the bank.
Are you going to the bank, Nina?

No, you better go there.
You and I will go home together.

Ok, see you.

- Have you found anything?
- No, just a few photos.

- Someone set your car on fire.
- Exactly.

You told a colleague that you suspected Ragnarsson.

Yes.

- Why?
- He was angry.

He wanted me to pay him.

- Did you owe Ragnarsson money?
- No.

Had he lent you money for the car?

No. I bought it with my own money.

I advise you not to leave Stockholm.

You must be available.

Angelo, what did they say?

Did you told them about the brick someone threw through our window?

Are you okay?

Well, are you ready?

Certificate of shares.

Restaurant mortgages.

- And this?
- Bills.

Jewelry.

- Yes.
- That's all.

- Hi. Did you find anything?
- No.

- There's no will, okay?
- No, the IS a will; we just haven't found it yet.

Maybe there never was.

So why is Aaronsson talking about a will?

I don't know, Nina, but we'll never know.
We have to go.

- Me too. You staying?
- Yes.

- Good morning, Hjördis.
- Good morning. Condolence.

Thanks. Your job will of course end.

- But you get paid for the whole month.
- Thanks.

Nina is upstairs; you can leave the keys with her.

Good day.

Hjördis? Thank you for all that you did for mom.

Hjördis, hello.

- I have loved working here.
- Thanks. Thanks a lot.

I have to tell you something.

- I am very happy to see you.
- Me too.

We need to talk about what happened.

- Sonja, I ...
- It was a big mistake.

Yes.

- I love my family.
- Me too.

Nina and I have had
problems, but I love her.

And I don't need to work at DK.
Will anything change with Björn?

- No.
- Good.

I heard voices in Mrs. Helga's room, so I went in.

And I saw Mrs. Löwander standing there.

- Ester?
- Yes.

Not that I was spying on her or anything
but I live here so I ...

Obviously.

She was standing at the writing table.

And I believe Mrs. Löwander was carrying what she'd taken from there when she left.

At first I thought about toast with mushrooms.
Helga liked them so much.

We could also prepare them
with butter, cheese and herring.

- Why?
- They're good that way.

No! Better toast with mushrooms.

- And shrimp cocktail?
- Toast with mushrooms!

And after that I had rainbow trout beurre blanc, which she loved.

In the end I served them with trout roe and sweet beans.

I thought of that tenderloin pie,
that you prepare so well.

It is one of your heavenly dishes
and people like it ...

Yes, but Helga didn't like beef.

She thought it was vulgar. "Meatballs for the newly rich," she would say.

Yes, but it's easy to do.

If you are so stubborn, we will serve
plum soufflé for dessert!

No souffle.
Not for a hundred people.

Cancel it, we won't make any soufflé!
You drive Me crazy.

If the pensioner can excuse me,
I have work to do.

Two of three. Not bad.

Yes?

- Are you free now?
- Yes, come in. Close the door.

Then...

Erlander wants to make changes to the government given the result of the election.

He wants to entrust me with the Ministry of Education.

How nice, congratulations!

- You accepted, of course.
- Yes.

But someone will need to be appointed to this position that I'll be leaving.

- So they must decide who that person is.
- Oh, sure.

And do you know who it will be?

Mehr has the last word.
But I suggested one person.

You.

Me?

Nobody can do this job better than you.

And most of all you know what a shitty job it can be, so you won't go through any shock.

- Thanks, Bitt. I'm very happy.
- Good.

I thought then about another question ...

which actually has to do
with what happened before, and ...

I do not think...

we can continue together.
I mean, in private.

No...

If I stay in government and you here at the Town Hall ...

there would be too many things at stake.

Hasn't this always been the case?

It is better if we continue as just friends.

- It's incredible!
- Yes, but Hjördis has no reason to lie.

- No, of course not.
- It's still hard to believe.

Peter is capable of anything; we know that very well.

If they destroyed the will,
it's because it hurt them.

You obviously would have had
the majority share.

Mrs Löwander was in Mrs. Helga's study and she had something in her hand.

I believe a leather briefcase,
or something similar.

It was the same day that
you called me and Gustaf

and you said mom woke up.

- Well, what do you mean by that?
- What were you doing in Helga's apartment, Ester?

I...

Mom was looking for a purse
and asked Esther to come

- That's why she went into the study.
- Looking for a purse?

- Rather unlikely.
- I couldn't find it.

Hjördis saw Esther with a folder of documents.

You know the difference between a folder
and a purse, don't you Hjördis?

It seems to me it was a folder.

- Hjördis, that's what you think?
- Yes.

But you aren't entirely sure?

- It could have been that.
- Hjördis.

You said you saw a folder in Esther's hands.

That's enough. Are you implying that I'm lying?

If you have seen Esther,
why didn't you say anything?

It was quick.
Maybe I should have talked.

No, you didn't have to say anything.

- Maybe she took the will?
- Peter, you're exaggerating now.

It is you who exaggerate. You are saying
we took mom's will!

Hjördis, try to remember.

You were behind the door and you saw me.
Are you sure what you said?

What you are saying you will have to repeat in a court of law. Think about it.

I'm not sure.

No. Of course you are not,
because you saw a bag.

- I'm sorry. I can not...
- It's not your fault.

I don't want to hear another damn word on the subject.

Don't worry, Hjördis.

Everything suggests
who destroyed the will.

- But I can't prove anything.
- It's really frustrating.

I'm quitting tomorrow.

You could wait until we do the funeral.

All right.

- How did it go with the principal?
- What?

You and Sonja had to
go to Björn's school principal.

Oh yes.
It was nothing serious.

It's all OK.

- We're looking for Angelo Rigano.
- And you are...?

Excuse me, this must be a misunderstanding.

Angelo.

We have a witness who saw you at the crime scene.

I didn't kill him.

You met with Ragnarsson the night of the 15th?

Yes, but he didn't show up.

- Why didn't you tell us?
- You didn't ask me.

Why did you need to meet with him?

- To give him the money.
- You didn't owe him anything, you said earlier.

He threatened me and my family.

They threw a stone through our front window.

You didn't tell me that.

You are always adding new details to your story.

Love, don't worry.
It was just a misunderstanding, it will work out.

What are they accusing you of, Angelo? Eh?

Ragnarsson is dead.

They think I did it.

- Angelo ...
- Don't worry, I'm always there for you.

If it was you, God will forgive you.

I will always be with you.

- I love you.
- Us too.

Closed today

Ethel, can you come?

- This is missing something. Maybe more salt?.
- Is it for the rainbow trout?

- Stig! It is inedible.
- Inedible? What are you saying?

We can't serve this stuff, Stig.

Please, we need to start over.
I'll take care of it, Stig.

Help me, they need scallions and wine.
Shallot and wine, will you help me, please?

You should see your face! It was
​​Calle's idea to get you to taste test this pot of crap.

- Idiot.
- Ethel, Ethel, Ethel ...

I'm not that old
as you think. What about this?

Edible.

I would like to say a few words
about my mother, Helga Löwander.

I believe my mother would have been
very happy

to see so many people
gathered here in the dining room.

Because here it felt like home.

Mom was very proud
of this restaurant.

She thought guests would
really enjoy coming here.

Heaven knows, mom and me, we've had our difficult times.

Perhaps many in here have suffered
from the decisions my mother made.

But we also remember her for her
great love and the warmth she knew how to give.

I don't know if I've ever told her, but ...

but she was the greatest positive example for me.

So ...

Excuse me.

A toast.

To Mom.

You know what I think when I eat this cake?

- You're thinking, "Not bad."
- Exactly.

Thanks for lunch, everything was great.
The guests enjoyed it very much.

- We did our best.
- Compliments.

- You can go.
- No, I'm not going alone.

- Come with me.
- No, I'm going home.

It's only a moment.

- Stig, stop it.
- That's right, it's an order, Backe.

Order? I don't work here,
you can't order me to do shit.

I don't want to go with you!

All right. Ethel.

- What did she do?
- She must be an easy one.

- What do you mean?
- She didn't go home alone.

Who'd she go home with?

Someone took her to bed?

They saw her together with ...

- So, with whom?
- With the chef.

- Are you talking about me?
- Chef!

Sonja is my ex-wife, I accompanied her home, fucking gossips!

I'm leaving.
Thanks a lot for today.

Margareta, how nice to see you.

Margareta, do you think the service
was satisfactory?

- It went very well, it couldn't have been better.
- Say hello to Mrs. Gahn. I have to stay here for cleanup.

- It was a pleasure.
- Me too, Roos.

- Thanks for coming, Margareta.
- Thanks, Peter.

- Thanks for today.
- You are welcome.

What an idiot ...

- Hey. I let him sleep out here.
- All right.

He's so sweet.

- I'm here with him.
- All right, Gustaf. Good night.

It's as if she weren't dead.

Even during dinner I thought I heard her voice everywhere.

I know exactly what she would have said about the food ...

about the guests and about my clothing.

She seemed to be there with us.

Svensson Löwander.

Hi, Stig.
No, no problem.

Seriously?

Stig, you better say it
directly to Nina.

Yes, I'll pass it.

Hi, Stig.

Helga had given it to me to sign
as a witness, and then it happened.

She ... she left you everything.

Except the fee required by law.

I was absolutely sure you would get it.

- I understand if you're upset.
- No. No.

You now have the same amount as Peter and Ester.

- And your vote is decisive.
- Then let's call Aronsson.

The judge said you're free.
The fingerprints weren't yours.

But you're still a suspect.
Remember that.

Angelo?

Angelo, thank God!

You are beautiful.

- How are you?
- I'm back.

I have returned home.

Dad has come home.

- Welcome.
- Thanks.

Hello, Aronsson.
Please sit down.

- Well, it's about the split, I guess.
- Yes, and quite decisive, it seems.

A copy of the will was found.

Backe had received it from Mom
to sign as witness.

Helga leaves the majority to Nina.

Two-thirds.

Of course, your part remains.

You'll be doing the math, Peter.
It's just how you think:

Gustaf and I have the majority.

- We'll challenge the will.
- I do not think that...

Mom wasn't in full possession of her mental faculties.

Yes she was. She signed it three weeks ago.

She didn't look confused at all.
- We'll challenge it.

- Too bad for you there was a copy.
- Will you stop with these fucking accusations!

That's not the end of this.

Now I will be the director of DK.
Peter will direct the Oscarshof and Henriksdal.

This is the result of the division of assets.

I am incredibly happy and proud
to stay at DK with you ...

the best staff in Stockholm.

Thanks.

- Welcome back.
- Thanks. I'm ready.

Confessing to God and your congregation is essential

to the joy of finding your true nature.

Here we can give up our masks
and be faithful to each other.

Confessing to God and your congregation is essential

to the joy of finding your true nature.

Here you go sir.
- We haven't met yet.

- Mirko Kostelic.
- Angelo Rigano.

We have a common acquaintance.
Or rather, we had. Curt Ragnarsson.

Fortunately, there's now one less problem.

One of our brothers has decided
to witness the path of his salvation.

Gustaf, please.

Hallelujah!

How about your TV show?

I'll do it, I guess.

It's good for business. I can
delegate my restaurant tasks to others.

But that can only be done by me.

Besides ... I want to run the restaurant with you.

Me and you.

I have to tell you something.

I did a stupid thing.

A big nonsense.

Nina.

Nina!
