The Restaurant (2017–…): Season 3, Episode 2 - VIP - full transcript

Out of Vietnam, USA!

-We tame the system for democracy.
-No, you're undermining democracy.

-Who is that?
-John Hansen.

-Nice place, huh?
-Yes.

-Do you know the owner?
-No.

You need to be careful with money.
Missionaries don't get rich.

You wanted international class.
That's him.

-Want to go?
-No thanks.

We could make
something good out of this.

She's copying us.
She's after our guests.

Christina!



Kostelic is his name.

Mirko Kostelic.

You don't care
if Nina or Christina are in hospital?

Please, Anitha. Nina has more
important things to do than talk to me.

-It's been ages!
-Really!

Oh please. I don't want to get involved
in gay rights. Just so you know.

-Are you still angry with me?
-No. You mean nothing to me.

Thanks.

-We need to talk about my contract.
-Oh?

I've had another offer.

We have a six-month contract.

Unless you're prepared to lower
your rates, there's nothing to discuss.

-A much better offer.
-You already have a contract with me.

So you mean I'm a slave
because I signed something?



No...

But your contract is quite detailed
as to what you're to do, for how much.

-It doesn't apply anymore.
-Look here, Leif.

I'm taking the action somewhere else.
Club Royal.

-Wait a minute now...
-Ciao!

Leif!

-Hello.
-That's low, stealing our disc jockey!

-What are you on about?
-You know that tear gas attack hurt us.

And you steal our staff!

I thought there ought to be
some honour in you somewhere!

-Wait, what disc jockey?
-Viking!

He says he's starting at Club Royal.

I have nothing to do with that.
Ester must have made a better offer.

-So anything goes, then?
-Business is business.

So that means you can toss
a tear gas canister in?

-What did you say?
-Kostelic works for you, right?

He helps us with dish-washing staff.

-They say he did it.
-Who says?

-Did you know? Or is he a free agent?
-Who said that?

Those who benefit most from our failure
is you, Club Royal.

And I don't believe in coincidence.

You're bloody paranoid!

THE RESTAURANT

EPISODE 22
VIP

Excuse me!

Yes?

-This is cold.
-I apologise. I'll get you a new one.

-Is there new ownership here?
-No, it's the same.

Strange. We always eat here when
we're in Stockholm, but it's changed.

I'll bring you a new one.
I apologise.

The guest wants a new dish.
This is cold.

-Re-do!
-Me?!

Who else? That sauce has
so much skin on it, it looks like leather!

-You leave them lying for five minutes!
-Take it down a notch, you two.

Yes?

-We need a new head chef.
-Oh, I know!

-We think you should ask Calle.
-I know, but Calle has a job.

I could talk to him.
Have a casual chat.

Thank you.

Someone said that this "disc jockey",
Mr Viking, has resigned.

-Peter poached him for Club Royal.
-What?

In a way it's nice to be rid of that fool.

-So who'll play records tonight?
-I don't know yet.

I haven't had time to find a replacement.

-Where's Christina? This is her thing.
-She's off.

It was arranged long ago.
What could I do?

-She comes and goes as she likes.
-No, Gustaf, she doesn't.

Right, so now it's time
to look at finances.

NOW SHOWING:
PLANET OF THE APES

It would be better if apes ran
the United States instead of Johnson.

Sounds like you study sociology
rather than running a night club.

What prejudice!

-Are you thinking of studying?
-Maybe.

-Are you thinking of working?
-I'm thinking of joining the police.

-The police? You seem like a leftie.
-So?

-You get on with John, he's a leftie.
-Sure.

-Aren't the police right-leaning?
-Well, yes.

Then I'm worried about you.
You won't fit in.

You'll have to sit alone at lunch breaks
with your little leftie lunch box...

And when you suggest going out
for a beer, no one will answer.

It wasn't a palace or anything,
more like a big country house.

-Was it just you and your dad?
-No, Gran was there when I was little.

When I was about 12,
Dad met someone new.

Who moved in after...
two days, it seemed.

-You didn't like her?
-No, I was pretty awful to her.

So when I turned 18
I moved in with Mum.

Why'd you live with your dad?
That's pretty unusual.

-Sorry, that's a forward question.
-Mum was...ill when I was little.

This is me.

-Thanks, I've had a lovely evening.
-Me too.

-Will I see you at the club?
-Definitely. See you there.

-Bye.
-Bye.

So, we're losing money.

Every night. Lots of money.

One reason is that
people are afraid of another attack.

-We need to hire security guards.
-What do the police say about Kostelic?

They say
they need concrete evidence.

Security guards are going
to be terribly expensive.

-We can resolve this in another way.
-Oh? How?

Well, I have some...contacts...

...who could ensure order in exchange
for managing the cloak room.

Who are these contacts?

Well, for one I know Lars Vinge.

-Lasse Vinge? The boxing promoter?
-Yes.

We met at Solvalla Racecourse.
He has some very promising horses.

-I know you and horses, but Vinge!
-Why couldn't I know him?

No, Roos.
We're hiring a security company.

It'll take more than that
to bring guests back.

We need to bring someone in.
Someone who attracts others.

-And who would that be?
-Who was the talk of the opening?

Before the teargas.

-The crown prince.
-Yep.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Nina came in today and
accused Mirko of the teargas attack.

And me.

Is she insane?

-Could she be right, do you think?
-No, I do not! Not to my knowledge.

Does Mirko do anything more
than provide washing-up staff?

You know he does. He staffs
the gambling tables and the cloak room.

No, I didn't know that.
Why didn't you tell me?

Because I manage the club!

I don't have to consult you
on every little decision!

-We're a big source of income for him?
-Yes, we are.

-Well?
-He wouldn't do that without asking me!

-We'll have to talk to him.
-Yes...

We'll have to do that.

But we'll have to consider
exactly what that entails.

-What do you mean?
-If he says, "Yes, it was me"...

What do we do then?

We'll have to go to the police.
And we'll be dragged into it.

It's better if we don't know.

Right...

Can you think of anyone
to replace Lasse Viking?

Cat Ballou has a few.
Berry Catstone, Ola Hammarlund.

Kennet Falk at Shazam perhaps.
I'll ask around.

I'll try to get the crown prince back.

I've got hold of one of his closest
friends, Fredrik Wetterström.

He's coming here for a meeting
tomorrow and I really want you there.

-At your most charming.
-I'm always at my most charming!

-Haven't you noticed?
-No, I haven't!

How was last night?

Nice. Uno is very sweet.

This is the most advanced
adding machine on the market today.

-Expensive, I'm sure.
-It's not cheap. Nothing beats a Facit!

-Aren't there electronic ones now?
-That's just a fad.

I'd never trust one. From Japan!

-They might add completely differently!
-I wouldn't think so.

We need him. You know that.

The kitchen isn't working.
You need to soften your stance.

Yes.

-Separate business and the personal.
-Yes.

Good.
Yes? Come in!

Calle!

-Welcome.
-Thank you.

Hello, Nina.

Good morning.

Right.

First of all, I'd like to say
how happy we are that you're here.

As I said, we need a new head chef,
and the top candidate is Carl Svensson.

-Who have you had?
-Hans-Erik Jonsson, whom you know.

Why did he leave?

Let's not be coy, he was
a bit shaken by the tear gas attack.

For my part...
I'm happy with my job at Reymer's.

With all due respect, do you really
get to use all your skills there?

Aren't you interested
in greater challenges?

This is a night club nowadays, isn't it?
You'll have a fairly limited menu.

You'll formulate the menu yourself.

And as regards your pay,
I'm sure we can offer significantly more.

Although we do have a budget
to keep to, of course.

-Do you want me here?
-We all do.

-I'd really like to hear it from you.
-We're investigating every alternative.

-Then you can continue doing that.
-Please, Calle, wait...

I'll be going now.

-You call that softening your stance?
-He claimed I had a bar menu!

-You hear what you want to hear.
-I said it was a waste of time.

It certainly was.
I'm going to the hotel to pack.

-Wait, you're leaving for Tanzania now?
-Yes. You won't listen to me.

But Gustaf...

Gustaf!

Gustaf, wait!

You're right, I didn't handle that well.
But I will find a new head chef.

If all this is too much for you, Nina...

There's no shame in going back
to a classic restaurant.

-I'll sort this out.
-I know.

-I'll send you a telegram.
-Say hi to Astrid and Mårten.

I will. Good luck.

-Hello.
-Hello. You have a visitor.

-Hi.
-Hi!

I was going to phone first, but...
Well, I live nearby, so...

I thought I might as well pop by.

Come in.

-Did you want something particular?
-No, I...

I just wanted to ask
if you'd...like to go out some night.

We could go to that place
I was telling you about.

I don't know...

-It's fun.
-Yes...

Yes, but...

I just have a lot of work to do.

Shouldn't it be a part of your job?

-You think so?
-Yeah.

As social welfare city commissioner,
you should be aware of the nightlife.

In fact, I demand it.

-As a taxpayer.
-Oh you do.

When do you want to go?

You can't say
that China is a democracy.

It is. But it doesn't look like ours,
so we call it a dictatorship.

Aren't all parties other than
the Communist Party forbidden?

All work is channelled
through the Communist Party,

but when a social model, a theory of the
world, is proven correct over and over...

-...isn't it right to model society on it?
-Yes, but...

Does a dictator say, "Let a hundred
flowers bloom" or "It is right to rebel"?

-Everything all right?
-Yes.

Have a seat.
There's no one here, sit down.

-You're the reason I came here.
-Is that so?

-It is.
-Not because I promised a free drink?

Not at all.

Hi.

-Can I buy you a drink?
-No thanks.

You're good looking.

-Don't touch me!
-Are you mad!

-Come on. Time to go home.
-What did I do?

Come along or I'll have to
get a security guard.

-What a bastard.
-Thank you.

But you have to understand it yourself.

-I want to dance.
-There's no dance tonight.

The DJ left
and I haven't found a new one yet.

-I know, it's a crying shame.
-Let's go to my place, then.

-Are you in?
-Sure.

-I'd love to.
-Absolutely!

-I'm leaving now.
-Oh?

There's an after-party.
And we won't have many guests here.

No, but...

I'll keep looking for a DJ tomorrow.
See you!

-Okay, who wants wine?
-I do!

Let me show you the flat.
We'll take two glasses.

-The home of Communist Orientation.
-Hello.

Torsten is our chief ideologist,
you might say.

-He can recite Mao's Little Red Book.
-A slight exaggeration.

How does the chapter
"Classes and Class Struggle" start?

"Classes struggle. Some classes
triumph, others are eliminated."

See?

-Welcome to the reds.
-We write it here and print it in town.

Expensive as hell,
but it has to look like a real magazine.

-Time for a break. Have a beer.
-I'll be along in a minute.

-Good. Something to drink?
-Scotch!

-Put a record on and I'll get your drink.
-Hi, I'm Mark.

-Hey guys.
-Hey, man.

-How are you?
-Good, how are you?

Do you know this guy?
He's coming to Stockholm.

-The greatest rocker in the world.
-Who?

Jimi Hendrix.

-Are you going to see him?
-I tried to get tickets but they're gone.

-For you, sir.
-Thanks, man.

-Whose is that?
-A bourgeois pig's.

170 kronor. And a bit more.

A simple dream

A lovely dream of truth

Oh may it never end

We live in amazing times. It's brewing
in Paris, Prague, the Third World.

World revolution is under way
and we get to be a part of it!

Centuries from now, they'll write about
it, and about us who made it happen!

Do you really think it's going to be a
revolution? In Sweden?

I'm sure of it.
All it takes is someone to light the fuse.

-And that's us.
-What do you mean by light the fuse?

An example: Tomorrow the Social Dems
are having a meeting.

A conference on industrial policy.
We're going to go there

and call them to account
for selling out the working class.

Won't they just throw you out?

That will just prove they don't have
any real arguments. We win.

Or else they won't dare throw us out
because it's undemocratic.

That's a win for us too.
Whatever they do, we win.

Because we're right!
We're the future!

Are you tired?

Let me show you where you can sleep.

I'm still curious about this revolution.
Is it going to be peaceful?

Or will there be bloodshed?

There are no historical examples
of revolutions without bloodshed.

If we have the chance
to create a fair and just society,

to achieve socialism,
which is society's ultimate goal,

what sacrifices are too great?

Imagine a society
where money doesn't matter.

Look, I...I'm heading home.

It's been fun.

Right on, man.

-See you.
-Bye.

About wages... Different jobs have
different responsibilities.

Did you hear me talking
about an action yesterday?

Yes, some conference.

Want to come along?

-Is it in the evening? I have to work.
-No, it's before work.

-Then I'll come.
-Then you'll see my real life.

My daughter was supposed to be here,
but we'll have to start without her.

-Are you sure you don't want a drink?
-Yes, I'm fine.

As I said, the crown prince
really enjoyed the opening night here.

We weren't in the room
when the incident occurred.

Yes, and we've increased the security,
so nothing like that will happen again.

That's excellent.
But that's not the problem.

No?

There's a group of us
who like to spend time together,

and some aren't of legal drinking age.

They're 18, even one 17-year-old.

Aha, I see. Well...

We can arrange something.
We could say formally that you...

...have reserved the disco
as a private party.

A simpler solution could be
giving us membership cards.

Yes. Absolutely. If you give me
their names, I can take care of it.

Or perhaps I could just have
ten blank cards.

I...don't think we can do that.

We want this to be as easy as possible
for you and for us.

Right...

We don't normally do this.

No. I understand, and of course
I'll handle this discreetly.

-When... When will he be here?
-The crown prince?

We plan to come on Saturday,
if that's all right. Quite many of us.

We look forward to seeing you then.

-Then I'll see you on Saturday.
-Indeed.

Thank you.

Pardon me for saying this,
but this feels wrong.

I know. But we need the crown prince,
so what can I do?

We could lose our serving licence.
We'd be finished.

Yes. But it is what it is.

And I need to take some risks.

Right. I've found out
what food the crown prince likes,

and he's fond of shellfish, so we should
have a seafood platter on Saturday.

-A seafood platter?
-Yes. You know what that is?

-Of course I know what it is...
-Good.

-We should have some platters here.
-That's going to be a huge hassle.

Carmen - we'll help.

What kind of meat does he like?

We could do three tiers: Poultry on top,
pork in the middle, beef at the bottom.

Yes. But I was told shellfish,
so we're serving shellfish.

Thank you.

You heard her. Get cracking!

-So there you are!
-Mum, this is Mark.

-Why didn't you ring?
-I did this morning. You didn't answer.

I was probably already at work.
Where were you?

-I'm a grown-up, I can stay out.
-Right, but you missed the meeting.

This is Mark, our new disc jockey.

-Hi, nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.

He played amazing dance music
at the after-party yesterday.

Do you have experience as a diskjockey?

Sure, back in the US before
I was drafted.

All right.

One night, on trial.

-And if it works, you can continue.
-Great, sounds perfect.

Great.

Your neck is red.
Been cuddling with a hedgehog?

Hi there.

Well well! The crown prince's mate!

Yeah, sure.
I'm starting as a DJ tonight.

Good for you. And for us.

-So I'm just going to check out the gear.
-Sure, go ahead.

-Are you doing okay up there?
-Yeah, I just um...

-Thanks.
-You're welcome.

You see, I'm not used to this
particular equipment.

-It's called a record player.
-Right.

-Peter! It's been a long time.
-Indeed.

Looks nice. Ester said you were
going to refurbish this summer.

Yes, that's the plan.

Let's go for a walk.

How much do you make
on the gambling tables and cloak room?

I like to keep
my business figures to myself.

Sure, but... You'd stand to lose a lot
if we lost guests.

What are you unhappy about?
Just say the word.

Did you have anything to do
with the tear gas at Nina's?

I'll start out easy, to win over
the audience with my arguments.

-When do we hand out C.O.?
-Once I get into dialogue with them.

How much do we resist
if they try to throw us out?

We should make it difficult
to get rid of us, but not fight back.

-Everyone ready? Shall we do this?
-Yes!

Go right in. Act like you belong here.

Hello.

-This is a private meeting.
-Private?

-Then why was it in the newspaper?
-We have a right to attend.

Please stand aside
so the participants can come in.

Who do you mean?
I don't see anyone else here.

-Please step aside.
-We have the right to attend!

Step aside! Bloody rabble!

Settle down, settle down!

-Angelo, have you seen Christina?
-I'm afraid not.

I see. I think there's been
a misunderstanding here.

At Nina's I always got
a cut of the entrance money.

That's not how we work.

No?

I thought everyone in the industry
knew that. It's how the Big L rolls.

You have a very high salary.
There won't be anything else.

Okay, let's say this:

I'll risk my cut of the entrance fee,
and if this is the hit we know it will be,

we'll have another chat next week.
Okay?

No.

There wasn't anything else, was there?

This is beyond the pale!

I asked Mirko if he had anything to do
with the tear gas attack.

-And?
-He said no, of course.

I don't know what I was thinking.

I told you so.

We'll just have to trust him, then.

But if you want,
I can keep an eye on him.

Look...

I understand that you're worried,
but don't be.

You've got enough on your plate
with Henriksdal and Oscarshov.

I promise I'll take care of the club.

Okay.

I know you will.
You're doing a great job.

-What's the name of this place?
-Downtown.

Isn't that an underground club? Lilly...!

What?

I can't go to an underground club!

I understand...

We...we...we can go somewhere else.

City Club is pretty good.

Or...

-We can go in for a little while.
-Good!

It'll be fun!

Watch your step.

-They're having a drag show tonight.
-A drag show?

They call themselves
the Downtown Ballet.

I know one of them, Jörgen.

There he is! Jörgen!
Jörgen, come here!

Lilly, darling! Welcome!

-Come and meet Maggan.
-Hi, I'm Margareta.

-Welcome!
-Jörgen has borrowed bras from me.

-Are you the same size?
-Maybe I'll borrow yours next time!

Can we have two beers?

Hey, Stockholm. Welcome to Nina's.

Are we going to have fun tonigh?
Are we going to feel the groove tonight?

You are on fire tonight! My name is
Mark Knight, let's rock this place.

Welcome, everyone, to Downtown!

-You're beautiful! We love you!
-We love you!

Enjoy the show,

but above all,
be sure to enjoy each other.

What does Britt say
about you being here?

Cops! The cops are coming!

Where's my purse?

Lilly?

Listen up! Good evening.

You can go home soon,
we just want to see your ID first.

Show them on your way out.
Come along.

Driving licence or valid ID.

I think tonight was a one-time thing.

I thought it was pretty good.
Until you mucked it up.

I hate to say this, but...

Nina is starting
to lose control of the situation.

She's bending the rules,
it doesn't feel right.

Maybe you should get a new job.

No...

I can't leave when she needs me.
I owe Nina everything.

I understand, but...
What will you do if it all falls apart?

Shall I bring the biscuits?

-Maybe I'll start my own business.
-What?

My own restaurant.

Angelo...

Any restaurant would hire you.

We need a steady paycheque
every month. There are four of us.

-We were caught in a police raid.
-Where?

Downtown. It's an underground club.

-Lilly took you to an underground club?
-Yes, but...

I chose to go in,
so I can't blame her.

The police took everyone's ID.
They recognised me.

-My God, how stupid!
-Yes, it was. Very.

One of Lilly's gay rights friends
probably tipped off the police.

Great publicity for them. "Social Welfare
Commissioner at Gay Club".

-It wasn't like that!
-She's got you where she wants you.

That was weird yesterday.
It was as if they knew we were coming.

I never should have
dragged you into this.

It was my choice.

Do you believe me now, when I say
this society is fundamentally fascist?

Yes.

I won't ask you where you've been,
because you're right, you're a grown-up.

But a grown-up does her job.
And you have a job to do!

-You're a hostess at Nina's.
-Mum, I...

No, let me finish. You hired
a disc jockey who can't play records.

You come and go as it pleases you,
as if this were some kind of game.

But it's not a game.
We could go bankrupt!

-I've spent the night in police custody.
-What?

You're bloody unfair! I've asked
everywhere for a DJ, no one is available.

So I asked Mark, to have someone, then
we got arrested at a political meeting!

-You poor dear...
-Back off! The night club isn't my life!

-I have other interests!
-I'm sorry, I...

I'm doing the best I can!

-I'm going to report the police.
-What? Why?

-They only raid our clubs.
-They raid all underground clubs.

But they only check ID on us.

-And what crime is that?
-I don't know. Discrimination.

-I know a lawyer who can look it up.
-I think it's a bad idea.

-Why?
-Because...they won't investigate.

-It's a waste of time.
-It will give us publicity. That's good.

-So that's what this is about?
-Yes. In part.

Was it your group who called the police?
Did you want me to get caught?

What? No!

And you trust your colleagues at RFSL?

Are you serious?
Of course I trust them!

I hate being manipulated!

We're to serve a seafood platter
to the crown prince.

She hasn't even ordered oysters
or langoustine! I had to do it.

-That's bad.
-She and Anderson constantly bicker.

They fight over every single
square millimetre of workspace!

-I'll talk to her.
-I don't know how this can be resolved.

Hi...

-Hi!
-My chefs are about to kill each other.

And tonight the crown prince
is coming with a big party.

Is there any way you can fill in
as head chef?

-Tonight?
-Yes.

-Name your price.
-I'm not available tonight.

I understand.

Nina!

Nina, wait!

They can survive one night without me.

What's the crown prince's fancy?

-I'll give you another chance.
-I won't let you down, I promise.

-We can't find anyone else.
-Perfect!

Whatever you did yesterday,
don't do it tonight.

One platter ready!

-Three platters, one CB.
-Three platters, one CB!

-Three platters!
-One CB.

We've never called it that before.

-What's that?
-We've always said château. CB works.

-Ready for the onslaught?
-Absolutely. When will they be here?

Soon, I think. I'll let you know when they
arrive, so you have some forewarning.

-Great.
-Good.

-All right?
-I'm so glad you're here.

And when you're finished eating,
come on into the club.

Enjoy your meal.

-Hello.
-Hi there.

-All right?
-We're expecting the crown prince.

-Are John and the others here?
-Have you spoken to him?

-You know what happened yesterday?
-No.

We went to a political meeting,
but were arrested outside.

-Beat us up with truncheons.
-They did?

I spent the night in custody.
I wasn't even allowed to phone anyone.

That sounds mad!

I'll tell you more later.

Welcome!
Do you have membership cards?

Yes, we showed them at the door.

-How old are you?
-21.

Come off it.

-How did you get these?
-Don't answer!

You got them from the crown prince's
friend Fredrik, right?

It's all right, you've nothing to fear.
Tell me the truth.

We're happy to have the crown prince's
friends here, so let's try again.

-Did Fredrik give them to you?
-He didn't give them.

They cost a fortune.

-Is the crown prince coming tonight?
-No, he's in Germany.

-Hunting wild boar, I think.
-Fredrik is with him.

Forget the crown prince.
He'll come on his own soon enough.

I'll have to take back all the membership
cards. Let them get mad at Fredrik.

We'll work it out.

I'm sorry. If it's anyone's fault
that it's all going wrong, it's mine.

You're doing the best you can.

-Want to talk about yesterday?
-No, we can talk tomorrow.

I want you to know how happy I am
that we're in this together.

Mrs Löwander?

-Can you come to the front entrance?
-Sure.

-Hello.
-Hi. Can we get a table in the disco?

-Ten people, we want to sit together.
-Of course.

That's great. Mr Hendrix will be happy.

Jimi...

-Welcome.
-Thank you, lady.5

Welcome.

-What's going on in the corridor?
-It's Jimi Hendrix!

-You're fucking kidding me.
-No, it's Jimi Hendrix!

-You gotta be fucking kidding me!
-No, it really is Jimi Hendrix!

Enjoy. We come back with more.

Let's turn up the heat,
with some rock 'n' roll.

This one is from the greatest
rocker in the world.

Let me see you get down.

-I'm very glad you came here tonight.
-I was here for the grand opening.

It's the only place in Stockholm
I'd bring Jimi to.

Is it okay with you if I play a few songs?

-This one's for you.
-Oh, thanks.

-You were good tonight.
-Yeah?

Really good.

I have to go. I have an exam on
Tuesday, so I need to study tomorrow.

-Glad you made it. See you!
-See you.

They were beaten and jailed
for trying to attend a meeting.

-So they say.
-I believe them.

-What the hell are the police up to?
-They're doing their job.

We share information with them.

Then I don't know if I should
tell you about things like this.

-It's not like they're planning a murder!
-I understand if you're angry.

Have some coffee.

INTELLIGENCE BUREAU

-Busy night.
-Yes.

When word of Hendrix got out,
it filled up in no time.

-Well then. All's well that ends well.
-Yes.

And they loved the food, of course.
They ate everything.

Good.

The kitchen has missed you.

I've missed this kitchen a bit too.

Would you like to come back,
permanently?

We can discuss it.

Good.

-I hear Nina had a full house tonight.
-What do we do now?

Nothing. Peter is already suspicious.

No, he isn't anymore. I told you.

You did a great job.
Handled it perfectly.

If anything goes wrong, I'm done for.

You weren't so hesitant
about the Aladdin.

There's no comparison.

Trulsson tried to double-cross me.
It was personal.

-This is personal for me.
-How?

The first thing I did when opening the
Royal was to contact you for protection.

Otherwise I'd have had thugs here
the first night.

But Nina Löwander
doesn't think she needs protection.

Because Nina's
is the fancy old DK restaurant.

And all I can say is,
"Welcome into the game.

The same rules apply to you
as to the rest of us."

Come here.
