The Restaurant (2017–…): Season 2, Episode 9 - Egen majoritet - full transcript

Helga has had a stroke and her family fear the worst. Peter and Esther are worried about what will happen to DK if Helga passes away and begin to make secret arrangements. The Social ...

- Hi.
- Margareta!

The Social Democrats need the restaurant for the vigil of the elections.

- But it's booked by the Doctors' Association.
- But I already told them yes.

- What the hell ...?
- We have to take advantage of this opportunity.

- Hi, Helga ...
- It's about time I showed you.

- Will she and Peter meet halfway?
- No.

- Sometimes you have to make choices.
- And I made them.

- Come on. Hallelujah!
- Work, alcohol, God. What's next?

- Nothing. God loves me as I am.
- But who are you really?

- I lived there myself.
- You shut Wallin's mouth.

- Would you like to debate again?
- I ... I don't know.



Britt?

Because of you I was thrown out of there.

You owe me a ton of money! Find work for my men
or you'll have to pay me!

- Did you promise him a job?
- Absolutely not.

- I've been doing this for you for five years!
- Why are you just saying that now?

We are never fucking together!

- And was it supposed to be here?
- It's just the party ... Calle!

Helga. Helga!

Hey, what's going on?

- What happened?
- Helga had a stroke.

She hasn't woken up yet,
but we gave her anticoagulants.

But will she make it?

We don't know yet.
We will do everything possible.

- Can we go in and see her?
- Just a few minutes.



Thanks.

- How is she doing?
- She's still alive, Stig.

It was so sudden. One moment she was fine and the next moment ...

Look ... let's go in and see her.
Come with us?

No. It is better if there is only the family.

Come in if you change your mind.

Episode 19
Absolute majority

I don't remember how it was when dad died.

I do.

The next day I got up and opened the restaurant as usual.

You speak as if she is already dead.
Mom can't die like that.

No. It's not like her.

She'll soon wake up and start grumbling ...

why didn't we sit down
on those hard chairs.

Maybe all 3 of us don't need to stay here. We could take turns.

- I'll take the first shift.
- I'll come later.

- Notify me if anything happens.
- Yes sure.

- Do you have a certificate of ownership?
- It was in the cru ... cru ...

Fuck, what's his name?

- The small drawer.
- Dashboard?

- Did you see who set the car on fire?
- No. But I suspect a person.

His name is Curt Ragnarsson. He...

Curt ... Ragnarsson?
Why do you suspect him?

He threatened me.
He wants me to hire his men at work.

Can anyone confirm this?

No.

Have you ever had a fight with a colleague?

No, absolutely not.

- And Ragnarsson is my only enemy.
- We'll talk to him.

But it was probably one of your friends.
These machines are the envy.

Asshole!

Hey, what did they say about the car?

Do they know who it may have been?

- Angelo! What did they tell you?
- That they will find him.

So do they know who did it?
- No, they don't know!

They said they will find him, but maybe they won't be able to.

Look, I'm sorry.

- I told you not to buy it.
- Thanks. I'm going to get ready.

- Nice color.
- Yes very nice.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- So you're working here again?
- Yes, it seems.

We needed more staff.
Sonja is the best I've had.

- Do you agree?
- Sure.

Your life is enviable.
I've read about your many awards.

Don't believe everything you read.
How are you and Åke?

Our life is completely different
than yours, quite ordinary.

- Tell me, what does your 'ordinary' look like?

Well, we wake up. Åke goes to the office,
I take the children to school.

We have dinner at six. And watch
a bit of television before going to sleep.

And then it starts again.
Everyday.

All?

Except Thursdays when Åke plays
table tennis after work. Nice isn't it?

Sounds wonderful to me.
Especially the ping pong.

Director. I learned that your mother
is in the hospital. How is she?

She's in good hands.

Yes.

Let's hope for the best, Roos.
Mom doesn't give up that easily.

That's for sure. You're right.

Sorry if I get excited, but I ... I ...

I'll control myself. But Mrs.
Löwander has always been here.

Thanks, Roos.

- Maggan, wait. Go ahead.
- I'm in a bit of a hurry.

- Are you all right this morning?
- Yes, all right.

Your name is circulating.

Palme wants you to help prepare for
the televised electoral debate.

- The debate with Prime Mininster Erlander?
- He wants the younger view that you can provide.

- Are you kidding me?
- I? No, I'll let them know you're coming.

But ... unfortunately not.

- Britt's diary is full. She needs me.
- Maggan ...

Thank Palme for thinking of me. But unfortunately I can't do it.

Hi. Sorry for the delay,
Arne held me up.

What did he want now. For you to speak at the May 1 celebration?

- They wanted my help with the televised debate.
- Was he joking?

No, he meant it.

We're in the middle of a busy reelection campaign, and suddenly he needs you.

- What do we have today?
- We have a meeting at 11 ...

- I'm sorry, but I can't lend you Maggan ...
- This is Prime Minister Erlander.

Prime Minister? Good morning.
No, you are never a bother, prime minister.

I see. Absolutely,
we can organize ourselves.

Thanks. See you later.

You have to go to Rosenbad [PM's offices] now.

- Are you sure?
- The Prime Minister is waiting for you.

- Well ... you have a meeting after lunch ...
- I can read, now go.

Prime Minister ... Margareta Nilsson.

- Miss Nilsson, it's good to see you again.
- It is a great honor to be here.

- Palme and Lindström are on their way. A coffee?
- Thank you, with pleasure.

Please sit down.

- I booked under the name of Ragnarsson.
- I know who you are, Ragnarsson.

The table is ready, follow me.

- Thanks.
- You are welcome.

- What are you doing here?
- Well, I came to eat.

What do you do in a restaurant?

- You were the one who destroyed my car.
- The police already told me.

At first I was disappointed.

But after our conversation, the police and I agreed it's all nonsense.

I didn't do anything to you.

You think you can send my boys
to Mirko without consequences?

- Your' boys?
- Yes.

- Give me 10,000 crowns and we are even.
- 10,000?

Take a good look. Forget it.

- I'll go to the police.
- You are welcome to do so.

We'll see if they believe you.

Or maybe they'll just think you're
annoying a sick old man.

Angel...

- What's going on?
- Nothing.

Hi, honey.

- I'm glad you could come.
- I came as soon as I could.

How are you?

Well, you know what grandma is like.
She doesn't give up easily.

Hello grandmother.

I'm Christina.

I brought food from the restaurant.
I thought we could eat ...

- Hi, Maggan.
- Hi how are you?

I'm glad you came.

Britt is in a bad mood today.
I hope you will be able to cheer her up.

- Hi.
- Hi, what are you doing here?

- I came to leave you this.
- Thanks, but I already have one that I did.

I can see?

If you look here,
you will have a bit more detail.

And here too.

- When did you write this?
- Last night.

Thanks.

Mom ... mom, can you hear me?
Mum.

You're in the hospital.
You had a stroke.

Wait, I'll call the doctor.

She's woken up. Can you call the doctor?

Don't worry, the doctor is coming.

Can you wait outside? Thanks.

- I will be right back.
- Mrs. Löwander?

Like this. Breathe, Mrs. Löwander. Breathe.

Good morning, Mrs. Löwander.

- I...
- No, you don't need to talk now.

Calm. Calm down, Mrs. Löwander.

How are you?

Her left side is paralyzed.
We don't know if it will stay that way.

We can only wait
and see how things develop.

- Can I go in?
- Of course. But she must rest.

Quiet, mom, I'm here. Lie back and relax. The doctor said you must rest.

Honorary table in the center.
Other tables on the sides.

Do we have the list of places? Thanks.

I'm sorry you had to come with me to work.

- I'm having fun.
- That's good. Are you sure?

100%.

- How is your handwriting?
- Not bad.

Can you help me with the seats?

Do you want something?

What?

Dad ...

Poppie?

What?

I don't understand what you're saying, mom.

Documents?

Documents?

- Löwander.
- It's me. Mom woke up.

- How are you?
- Confused and agitated.

- There is a will.
- A will?

- It should be at home. Can you look for it?
- I'll go right away.

- Do the others know?
- No, just me.

Don't say anything until we find it.

Okay. Hurry up.

- Calle.
- Hi.

Mom woke up.
Can you take care of Christina?

See you later. Say hello to Helga.

She is awake, but tired, struggles to speak, but tries anyway.

Mommy ...

- How nice to see you woke up.
- You scared us so much.

What is it, mom?

- We...
- We're all here now.

Keep calm.
Try to get some rest.

- N ...
- I'll take care of everything.

- You don't have to worry.
- Yes.

Try to get some sleep.

- What do you have to do?
- Let her sleep.

- We need to decide who stays.
- I'll stay.

Okay.

Bye.

Two shrimp cocktails!

Two meatballs at the counter!

- Will you finish soon?
- We're halfway through the evening.

- I can go home. I know the way.
- On a Saturday night in Stockholm?

- No way. Your mother would kill me.
- A roast! A cod!

- Where are the potatoes?
- Four minutes.

- Do you steal drinks?
- Sorry, I'm leaving.

No! I will not say anything.
Do you want something?

Wait here.

- Try this.
- Thanks.

We are going to win this.

- Erlander is brilliant.
- He was sick, but you don't notice.

Maggan helped the Prime Minister
prepare the debate.
- It wasn't just me.

Whoever prepped him has done a great job. Let's toast!

Cheers.

Are you okay?

- What's this?
- She's not feeling well.

Christina!

- Who are you?
- Bernt. I just helped her.

Do you know she is 15? Get out of here!

Christina ... are you okay?

- What were you doing upstairs?
- I just wanted to hear some music.

- What did you drink?
- Something yellow.

- The club is not suitable for 15 year olds.
- Sorry.

Please don't tell my mom
or Calle that I was there.

We'll see.

Stefan, meat on the counter!

Calle ... Christina is tired, so I'll take her home.

- You sure? I'll finish in half an hour.
- No, no, no problem.

You're still busy and I was leaving anyway.

- Here are the keys. Thanks a lot!
- What are family for?

Two fruit salads!

Brandy and soda.

- I know you.
- I don't think so.

- I knew Bojan, from the Oscarshof.
- Oh yes.

It's been a while, I don't remember.

You were the manager.
I've seen you several times.

Thank you.

The truth is that...

they told me you worked here.

I thought maybe we could meet.

Get out.

- I'm sorry if ...
- I'm sorry. Please go away.

Please.

But ... how can she do this to us?
Huh? It was our turn to lead.

She doesn't want us to be in control.

Let's destroy it.

Wills disappear all the time.
We have nothing to lose!

Nobody can prove we ever had it!
Maybe this thing is not even valid!

Take it easy. Take it easy!
If you calm down we can think!

And when mom asks me about the will?

You will tell her that you looked everywhere
but you couldn't find it.

- There might be copies.
- If there are, then so be it!

But we can destroy this one now!

- The terms in this will aren't fair at all!
- I agree!

And it will put us in trouble
for the rest of our lives.

We deserve an opportunity.

- Feel the kicks.
- He's a dancer.

We take him to dance.

And maybe it makes dad happy instead
and become a footballer.

- Midfielder. Do you want some chamomile tea?
- So we calm him down a little?

What was that?

- What's this?
- It's nothing.

No, Angelo, what is it?
What's written on that note?

Nothing.

Why are you taking me to the restaurant?

- Wait for me here.
- But will we sleep here?

Yes, there is a room you can stay in.

- But are you sure they don't mind?
- It's only for a very short while, and nobody must know.

Angelo, shouldn't we just call the police?

I'll sort this out, okay?
You don't have to worry, Luisa.

Here, you can rest here.
Go to bed. You must be tired.

- Aren't you going to sleep?
- I have to do something, but I'll be right back.

No. Don't leave me alone.

- Look, you're safe here.
- I don't want to be alone.

All right. I'm here.

Yes, but not just to please me. Stay because that's how it should be. Ok?

I'll stay with you.

- Hi.
- How is she?

No changes.
She slept all night.

You go home now.

Call if anything happens.

I recently started doubting
that I'm on the right path for my life.

Everything I touch goes sour.

Seems to me that you're seeking a meaningful existence.

Yes.

- You said you were a great sinner.
- Yes.

I was unhappy and drank.
I was not honest with my wife. I...

I think you should give your testimony to everyone, Gustaf.

These kinds of stories about how the Lord
can enter into a human life ...

they are very powerful.

There are things from my past
that cannot be forgiven.

God forgives everything.
He does not judge anyone.

Receive his love.
It would mean a lot to our community.

- Shall we go tonight?
- Tonight?

They changed the hours of service to allow everyone to vote.

- No, I have to be with mom.
- Ah okay. I'll come later then.

Will you vote for Hjalmar Mehr and his excavators.

Or support us, and give everyone the same opportunity.

Miss Nilsson.

- Do you live in Vällingby too?
- The house is very big for just the two of us.

- Are you going to DK tonight?
- Unfortunately no.

Pity. I would like to have celebrated the electoral victory with you. Good day.

Good morning. Margareta Nilsson.

The guests will arrive soon,
we must hurry.

Everything good?

- Hi.
- Hi.

Thanks for bringing Christina home tonight.

- That was nice of you.
- Yeah, but you should keep a closer eye on her.

Yes. She was with Calle, but ...

I found her at the club yesterday
vomiting after drinking.

- Calle, we need to talk.
- You have to wait.

No! I can't wait, I need to talk to you now.

Take it all over there.

Be fast. What happened?

Ester told me she found Christina drunk.

Drunk? But how?

That's why Esther brought her home.
Why didn't you tell me anything?

She made it up. Anyway I can't do everything. You have to look after your daughter!

Why is this here?
- I needed help from Rut.

This must go up now.
- Watch out, you're screwing them up.

Did you go to the club yesterday?
And did you drink?

- That was...
- Do not lie to me!

- Yes.
- Imagine if your father found out!

Well?

Damn!

To think that I once worked here as ... Sorry. Good evening!

- Welcome, it's a pleasure to see you again.
- Likewise.

- Welcome.
- Thanks. You have organized very well.

I hope you like it.

Prime Minister!

Mrs. Löwander, Miss Nilsson.
Thanks for saving us.

- I have to find our table.
- Yes. Britt and Svante are sitting there.

So, let's go there.

- Good evening.
- Hi.

You're welcome, Aina.

That's not free.

No. No, of course not. Sorry.

Party mates ... I just
received the election results.

Högern's destructive campaign has failed!

The people have spoken.
they want change, and we will give them exactly that!

Thanks for your dedication and your hard work!

Not only did we win the election--we did so with a clear majority!

- A toast to modern Stockholm!
- To Stockholm!

The Prime Minister thanks us for the service
and the food, which he called top notch!

Now let's close the kitchen
and let's celebrate the results!

Good job. Health.

It's fantastic! How uplifting!

- What a great result!
- The union made it possible.

- With a majority, we don't have to make any compromising alliances.
- No, it will be easier for us.

- How did the other parties...?
- Margareta, we were talking.

Apologizes. I didn't mean to interrupt you.

- Health.
- Health.

It was a real pleasure having you here with us.

It was fun to come back.

Seriously, don't you ever think about coming back?

- Ethel is retiring this year.
- I'll think about it.

I know ... I have to go.

- I'll take you home.
- There's no need.

Of course I'll take you.

All right.

I thought it was a good idea...

Let her take Christina home.
Ester and Nina are not very good friends.

Go apologize to Nina, and blame it
on Ester. She looked very upset.

It's not so easy.

Are you having a bad time?

Yes.

We always argue.

All these things, interviews,
awards, inaugurations ...

She likes them.
And they ask for her.

I'm at her side and ...

I'm terrified.

I'm afraid of saying the wrong thing, afraid of making mistakes.

I try to hide that I was raised in poverty.

Calle ... you are ...

the best man in the world.

- Do you want anything?
- No thanks. I'm fine.

- What's happening?
- Get out! Immediately!

- What happened?
- Gustaf called.

- We have to go to the hospital.
- Okay. Sorry.

- Ethel, have you seen Calle?
- No, he left a while ago.

- Can you tell him I'm at the hospital?
- At the hospital? Ok.

Angel...

Angel...

What's the matter?

- Call an ambulance!
- Too late.

We need water and clean towels!
Quiet. Breathe.

Breathe. Don't stop breathing.

Push! push!

Where is she?
