The Restaurant (2017–…): Season 3, Episode 8 - Framtiden - full transcript

John has escaped the police. He contacts Christina and Moa-Li and wants them to run away to Spain with him. Uno, however, suspects something is going on. Peter is considering accepting the ...

The debt is more than I can cope with.
I'll have to sell.

Mirko Kostelic has made me
a good offer.

-We'll serve fewer dishes now.
-There's nothing left for me to do.

Maybe you'll get the sack.

You're losing our family inheritance,

after you tricked
Mother into leaving it to you.

Don't speak to me about trickery!

Hell!

-Would she go to the police?
-Where else?

Where's John?

I wanted to talk to you about that -
the treatment.



I don't want to go on with it.

-We detained everyone from the farm.
-She's in Söder Mälarstrand.

Moa-Li!

I'm tired of grassroots-level politics.

This is the Cabinet Office.
The PM wishes to speak with you.

I intend to open a new restaurant.
I need a partner, and you're the best.

We'll deal with it together.
I can't manage without you.

You all know I'm interested
in buying Nina's.

Why not buy it together?

-Would you like some more juice?
-No.

Do you like the teddy?

Maybe you and teddy
can visit Granny at work some day.

-Maybe you'd both like to.
-I'd like that.

But today we're going to play.
And have lunch with Uno.



-Say hi from me.
-I will.

See you later, sweetheart.
Bye-bye, darling!

Bye-bye.

-Do you want more of your sandwich?
-No.

-Then should we brush your teeth?
-Yeah.

-You think Granny forgot something?
-Yeah.

I'll be right back.

Forgot something?

I just want to talk. Just talk!
I just wanted to see you. I swear.

You and Moa-Li.
I don't want to hurt you.

-Hi, sweetheart.
-I'll call the police if you don't leave.

Hi, sweetheart.

Come to Daddy.

Don't touch her!

I mean you no harm.

EPISODE 28
THE FUTURE

-Is that all?
-Yes.

-Is it as bad as I think?
-Yes.

But Nina will soon be on her feet again,
so it should work out.

-Are we doing this again?
-It looks that way.

I just wanted to check.

-They can't be serious.
-What?

The bank has turned my debt over
to a collection agency.

Can they even do that?
I just asked them for more time.

-And told them to go to hell...
-Well, yes...

After the collection agency,
it'll mean the bailiffs.

-Can't you ask Peter for a loan?
-Now you're not being serious.

Tell him the truth. You did start
drinking, but you're better now.

-He's your brother, he'll understand.
-No.

-You know what your problem is?
-Which one?

You're so bloody proud. And stubborn.

-It's okay to ask for help if you need it.
-Not from Peter.

What we did wrong at the farm was
that we had the wrong priorities.

When you left, I realised...

...you two are the most important things
to me. You and Moa-Li.

-Then get rid of the gun.
-It's just for protection.

We'll go to Spain.

-Who?
-You and me and Moa-Li.

We'll start over. A whole new life.

It'll be great.

Then I should pack.

-We don't need material things.
-Just some things for Moa-Li.

Okay. But quickly.

-I can watch her.
-It's all right.

-Go and pack.
-She can help.

It'll go faster if you do it yourself.
We'll be okay. Won't we?

Make it quick.

What does Nina say
about your being here?

She has no idea.
She'd kill me if she knew.

There's something you don't know.

About her.

She started drinking again.
In secret.

That's why she lost control
of her finances.

Well...

What do you want me to say about that?

She was dulling her worry
about Christina.

-I don't mean to excuse her...
-Yes you do.

People have always excused Nina.

She hasn't touched a drop
since Christina came back.

Good.

If you gave her a loan,
she'd get the place back on track.

-That's what you think?
-I know it.

-You know Nina, what she's capable of.
-Oh yes. I certainly do.

And her addiction was her choice. So
the consequences are hers to deal with.

So, you're not going
to lend her any money.

I'm not going to lend her any money.

Ignore it. Don't answer.

What the hell are you doing?
Hang up!

Hello?

-Were you going to report me?
-No.

You're lying. I can see it in your eyes.

Do you have any idea what I've risked
to come back to you?

Because I love you.
But you don't give a damn about me.

-No, that's not true.
-Don't lie to me!

Come here, sweetie.

You're done packing.

Give us Your strength now.

Give us new courage. Give me hope
that I can manage this. Amen.

Astrid?

Astrid.

Astrid, do you hear me?

Astrid, do you hear me?

Astrid, wake up.

Wake up, Astrid!

Astrid, do you hear me?

-Please, Astrid, wake up!
-Gustaf...

It's the morphine.

She needs her rest.

I'm sorry.

Stop where you are.

John, take it easy.
I'm unarmed.

-Don't do anything stupid, John.
-You're not in charge of me.

Damn it, let go!

Let them go.

John, let them go.

I'm sorry.

Call for back-up.

You know what I think?

That it should have been me.

You've done more for me
than I've ever done for you.

Don't think like that.

Maybe I should have left you.

But I'm happy
with how things worked out.

And I'm proud of our children.

And of what you and I built together
in Tanzania.

I've been happy.

-I wish I could believe that.
-You make happiness complicated.

I never have.

I've just seen it.

I want the children to come here.

All three.
While I still have the strength.

It will be worst for Mårten.

I'll take care of him.

I know.

You've always been a good father.

No, not always.

You're better with the children
than with yourself.

God loves you, Gustaf.

Much more than you think.

He doesn't judge anyone.

His will is love.

In whatever form it appears.

What do you mean?

He would understand.

Just as I do.

I'm going to miss you.

Maggan! How nice to see you!

I'm sorry, I just walked in.
I was in the dining room and...

...I needed some time,
so I just walked in.

Come, let's sit down.

Have a seat.

-I'm having lunch with Olof Palme.
-Really?

What are you...
going to talk about?

I was hoping for a job,
but why does he want me?

"Why does he want you?"
Margareta Nilsson...

You stop that right now.

That's just your nerves.
And self-deprecation. Don't listen to it.

If you only knew how proud I am of you
every time I read about you in the news.

-I have a scrapbook at home.
-Ethel...

And it has empty pages to be filled.

The Prime Minister is waiting.
Go on now.

-Margareta!
-Prime Minister.

Please sit down.

-Not like the last time we met here.
-No.

-I can't believe you remember, sir.
-I hope we're on a first-name basis.

I'll get to the point. I'm going
to make changes in the Cabinet.

-I want to highlight women's issues.
-It's about time.

I've seen your work
in the Pre-School Committee.

-And I'm impressed.
-Thank you.

I don't know
what you're working with now, but...

Would you be interested in a new job?

Yes, I am.

-If you need a new undersecretary...
-Minister. Was my idea.

What?

Would you like to be
the new Minister of Social Affairs?

Susie? Who is in charge of this sauce?

Carmen!

-You wanted something?
-This sauce is too strong.

-You Scandinavians need some spice.
-Excuse me?

-We have a recipe to follow!
-So you're head chef now?

No, are you?

I'm more qualified than you!
I was here first!

-How do you know anything about...
-Well, at least I...

Ethel! Ethel!

-Call the chef!
-Chef!

-Ethel!
-Chef!

-Ethel, what is it?
-Pressure in my chest.

-She needs a doctor.
-Should I call an ambulance?

It'll be faster if I drive her.
Do you think you can walk?

-Yes...I think so.
-Come.

One, two, three...there.

Hold on to me. Hold on to me.

-Take care, Ethel.
-Good luck.

We're almost there. That's it...

A bit further.

Ethel...

Right then.

-How are you?
-Better.

-Are you sure?
-You don't have to take me to a doctor.

-We ought to get you checked...
-I'm right as rain, as you can see.

What do you think?
Drama Academy, here I come?

I hope my little show shook some sense
into Carmen and Nisse.

They need to learn to think about others.

You need to take a long lunch now,
so they believe you drove to the doctor.

I've found the perfect place.
We can have outdoor tables in summer.

-And the kitchen?
-A bit run-down.

But it's good. And you can
refurbish it however you like.

Say yes!

For your own sake
and for mine.

I need you.

I'm trying to think how many years
I've spent at the DK.

I don't know. Too many.

Yeah.

You have to realise your dreams by 50
or you never will.

What? Are we approaching 50?
What do you mean?

You, not me.

I'm a young man.

-You have to take it.
-I want to take it.

My god, Social Affairs Minister!
The thought of politics at that level...

But I can't.

Why not?

Hello?

Will you stop that jumping up and down!

A lesbian Minister of Social Affairs?

Such a public position.
It would never work.

I'd be forced back into sneaking around.

And worrying all the time
that it will get out to the press.

-The press already know.
-Not that I'm lesbian.

Just that I go to underground clubs.

Yeah.

I'd have to tell Palme
about my lifestyle.

So do it.

Hello.

Hello.

Ethel!

-How are you?
-The old lady isn't dead yet.

-What did the doctor say?
-I didn't understand much.

Except that I need to avoid stress.
He was very clear on that point.

-Of course.
-Absolutely, that's important.

So, how's it going here?

-Fine.
-Swimmingly.

Good.

Well then, I'll go and change my clothes.

-Can we talk?
-About what? I've had enough.

Please, just listen for a minute.
I want to help.

-Just like Kostelic wants to help?
-It's not about him.

-It's me wanting to help.
-How?

I'll buy the DK. The debt will be gone
and you'll be free of responsibility.

So you'll run Nina's on your own,
and you call that "helping me".

-I'm saving you from bankruptcy.
-I will never sell to you.

And I'll never forgive you
for what you did when Mother died.

There's no reasoning with a drunk.

Excuse me?

I said there's no point
in trying to talk to a drunk.

And what do you mean by that?

Nina...

Calle told me.

Watch it!

What happened?

Peter can take over.
Even I know when it's time to give up.

-How are you feeling?
-No, please.

You told Peter.

You betrayed me.

Yes, perhaps I did.

-I thought he'd understand.
-It doesn't matter anymore.

-We can't stay together.
-No?

It was naive of me to think we could
fix something you broke long ago.

-If that's how you feel...
-It is.

How bloody ungrateful can she be?

Spoiled and ungrateful.
I came to solve her problems.

-Yeah, by taking over her place.
-The family's place.

Which she's run on her own
and built up by herself.

That place would be nothing without me.

Do you even hear yourself?

Of course Nina is angry and hurt.
I would have been, too.

Are you taking her side?

-You don't know all the circumstances.
-No.

But I know you, and I don't see how you
can be tone-deaf about others' feelings.

It's no wonder you're alone.

"Once upon a time, there were two girls
who lived with their mum in the woods.

They were cheerful and busy,
and looked like red and white roses.

...her name was Snow White.
The other was called Rose Red.

They were good friends
with all the animals in the woods."

Astrid...

There there...

There there...

There there.

There there.

Thank you.

-I'll come and get him as soon as I...
-We'll take care of Mårten.

You don't have to worry.

I asked Ethel to assemble you
because I've something to say.

As you already know,

the restaurant
has had financial problems recently.

I've done everything in my power
to solve those problems.

Unfortunately, sometimes good
intentions aren't enough. I've realised

that the only way to save the restaurant
is to have someone else take over.

-Who?
-I can't say anything yet.

And I can't promise there won't be
any terminations of employment.

That's all.

Oh, Nina, Nina, Nina...

Don't be sad.

Thank you, Ethel.
Thank you for everything.

Gustaf!

-Where are you going?
-Out.

-Where are you going?
-Leave me alone. Stop it! Let me be!

Give me those.

Give them to me.

-Where are you going?
-I'm going out!

I'm going away, I...

Can I have them?

That's enough now.

That's enough now.

-How long has he been drinking?
-Since early this morning.

Thanks, Yusuf.

-Gustaf.
-Peter!

Why are you sitting here?

I'm sorry for your loss.

She...was the best thing about me.

You know that.

I see you've still got the worst part.

Yeah, but God understands.

God understands everything,
doesn't He?

Don't ask me.

I...

I'm nothing without her.

I'm one big, fucking nothing.

I don't understand you and Nina.
You both...

-You know that doesn't help.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah...Mother.

You inherited it.

You know that, right?
We didn't.

What?

Mother's strength.

I don't know what you're talking about,
and you don't either. Let's go inside.

Nina and I inherited Dad's weakness.
Remember what he said?

He's got a weakness for the bottle.

And Nina thinks she's like Mother, but...

But it's you.

It's always been you.

Give me that.

Why don't we go in so you can have
a shower and put on clean clothes?

Right.

Yeah.

Palme, I'm extremely grateful
for your offer.

But before I say yes,
there's something you need to know.

I...

...eat pussy.

-You're going to say that?
-No, I'm not going to say that.

Okay.

Focus now.

-Palme, I... I can't say gay either.
-No.

-Say you're lesbo.
-I can't say lesbo.

Then say lesbian.
Or homosexual, whichever.

-I can say I have an incurable disease.
-Come off it.

That's not even funny.

Why should this be so hard to say?

I'm a grown-up.

"Lick pussy"...

Peter.

I'll go, so you can have a look around.

You can stay.

I...

...just sold Oscarshof.

To Mirko.

To pay off the debt here.

Pay it off, nothing else.

You will continue to operate and own it.

All on your own. I...

...don't want anything in return.

Apart from...

...perhaps...

Perhaps you can forgive me some day.

That's all.

I can't do it by myself.

I want us to do
what Mother really wanted.

That we operate and run it together,
the three of us.

You and me and Gustaf.

How would that work?

I don't know.

We've never tried.

No...

-I'll think about it.
-Good.

Right.

Thank you.
Thanks for everything.

Hey...

Can I call you some time?

It's ours. Nostro.

Come on.

Palme has called together his new
Cabinet, and it has some new names:

Margareta Nilsson
as Minister of Social Affairs

and Krister Wickman
as Foreign Minister.

Everyone over here.

Take your place. Margareta Nilsson,
our new Minister of Social Affairs.

And this is Krister Wickman,
our new Foreign Minister.

Let's get started!

-Hello.
-Hello.

-How are you doing?
-I'm going to be all right.

It's nice being back
at the Royal Djurgård.

Not to be that way,
but it's still called Nina's.

Yes. But there's no reason we can't
change back to the Royal Djurgård.

No, or to DK.

But DK is an abbreviation
of the Royal Djurgård.

-Mum, could you come here?
-Of course.

We'll have to talk more about this later.

-The best thing about you.
-What?

You said that's what Astrid was.
The best thing about you.

Yes, that's right.

-Why...?
-No, it's nothing.

Good evening. Name, please?

-Rosenlind.
-Rosenlind, party of three. This way.

-What's this?
-Tournedos.

It looks delicious.

One chicken ready.

-Goldstein.
-Suzanne? It's Peter.

One shrimp cocktail,
one beef à la Rydberg, table 7.

We're not open yet.

I just have to get something.

Hi.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Nice place you've got.

Thanks.

Right, I wanted to...

I wanted to say I'm sorry.

You were right.

About...my pride.

And about Peter.

You were right about everything.

And...

I wanted to ask if...
if you would consider coming back.

I don't want to.

I can't.

We're opening soon.

I'll be able to do what I really
want to do. For perhaps the first time.

I didn't mean to the restaurant.

I meant to me.

Do you,
Nina Marika Margareta Löwander,

take Carl Frank Svensson
as your lawful wedded husband,

for better or for worse?

I do.

And do you, Carl Frank Svensson,
take Nina Marika Margareta Löwander

as your lawful wedded wife,
for better or for worse?

I do.
