THE TRIO
Yes, we're doing European law now.
Right, I remember that.
I rarely made so few notes
Joel? Where is your law firm?
Is that so?
Thora
Hey, can I propose a toast?
Are you sad that Hugo didn't show up?
He never shows up anymore.
No. Have you seen him? Since Paris?
I just see him sneaking into his room.
I keep calling, but he won't answer.
Too bad.
Thora? I'm terribly sorry.
Traffic is impossible at this hour.
Yes
Good thing I can make someone happy.
What's this about, Grandma?
And there are those who need it more.
It feels like I can't do anything right.
What do you need literature for?
Mom studied art.
Your mom is an art history professor.
You're not people, Thora.
The faster you realize that, the better.
Look at her over there.
She's in your class, right? I knew it.
How can you tell?
It's my artistic eye.
You promise? Good.
Look, he showed up.
What a vase.
Hi! Welcome!
Where did you find her?
I've invited some people from the studio.
She's angry.
Oh, Hugo Hugo, Hugo
Okay.
So you're a coward and she's difficult.
Do you understand?
You've changed.
Have I? How so?
No, not difficult
Or yes, I guess that's what I meant.
How do you mean?
Those huge feelings fade with the years.
Know what I mean?
You haven't changed at all.
I attend enough.
Hi. Eli.
Nice.
Or I
Where is this guy? Do you know?
I haven't seen him in a while.
You scared us.
Oh well
Dramatic
Want one?
Okay.
They'respecial.
But are they really? Know what I mean?
when they really want to mooch.
Yeah
No.
About Ella?
Cute, but a bit uninteresting.
Was that a Lund accent?
What do you want?
I don't know.
Then let's forget about it.
You're hopeless, Thora.
I won't talk to you when you're high.
Excuse me.
Okay, maybe that's what I want.
You detest yourself too much for that.
and you can show them in.
Okay.
Of course. You're guaranteed a spot here.
Only if I do good work, or?
Why wouldn't you?
and not just my last name.
Here we go. Grandma's cucumber.
Wow. Nice.
Isn't it?
His name is Eli. We share a studio.
Yeah, definitely.
But who said that life should be simple?
No, that's true.
Can't you
tell me about Ella instead?
Are you in love?
I don't know.
I don't think I can fall in love.
Why's that?
It feels like you're freer that way.
What do you think?
I think maybe you shouldn't think so much.
Dare to feel more.
What's it like being married?
Not much difference from being engaged.
Don't look God, don't look.
Were you two involved?
What? No.
Obviously not for you.
I forget how well you know me.
But reading her is easy.
Confused, frustrated.
Heart-broken.
See you later.
Yes, why wouldn't it be?
Or maybe just nasty.
You call c.font-styleitalicLysistrata
Lysistrata is a caricature, not a heroine.
Thora, settle down.
Why are you so angry, Thora?
I'm not angry. I'm dedicated.
I agree, it's disgusting.
It doesn't make sense.
Then you said nothing and just agreed.
Thora
Don't you have any opinions of your own?
That's enough.
But perhaps a sharp prosecutor.
Time for an ice-cream adventure, everyone.
Cheers. Bring a bottle of red as well.
Lingonberry ice-cream with rhubarb, right?
Literature, nice. What does that make you?
I want to get a doctorate.
I've actually
applied to some schools abroad.
Aim high, and maybe you'll hit
Why did you drop out of school?
You have to give it some time.
I don't goof around more than others.
No, it's not like that. It's Thora, right?
Her friends in Lärkstaden?
They're not like us.
I paid the tuition for that damn school.
I really hope that you outgrow that soon.
It's really getting tiresome.
I can take that
What responsibility?
I just think He's okay.
I just wish he'd live his own life,
So what do you dream about?
Children.
What? Oh.
I want to have children some time.
That's the only future dream I have.
I'm better at daydreaming.
I don't think I want to be a dad.
Why not?
I don't know.
Lots of parents never do that.
Good parents?
You and Frances are very much alike.
I know, we often hear that.
And she hates it, poor thing.
Our relationship is a bit
Decide for yourself what to tell her.
Without you, I'm totally alone.
Of course I'll let you in. Come on.
Come here.
I got an F on my exam!
I've never gotten anything but an A.
You'll get it next time. Yes, you will.
Right?
I like you. I'm happy you're here.
I've felt pretty inspired lately.
And the socks
