Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:05,240
I want us to act like the nation
can influence government
2
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:06,280
because that's democracy,
3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:07,960
and democracy is a remarkable thing
4
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:12,400
because if we don't use it,
it doesn't exist.
5
00:00:12,519 --> 00:00:15,119
-What does the report say?
-I can't tell you.
6
00:00:15,199 --> 00:00:18,280
If it goes public,
it's only bad for one person.
7
00:00:18,359 --> 00:00:19,519
You.
8
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,679
Benedikt, you know they're going to
put the hotel in the bird sanctuary.
9
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:25,559
This is what your mother fought for.
10
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,839
What's going on? Is the deal off?
11
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,160
I'll handle it.
12
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,439
We have to fire Eggert from government.
13
00:00:32,530 --> 00:00:34,479
-Shouldn't we think about it?
-No.
14
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:36,240
He broke the coalition agreement.
15
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,850
His niece was going to be
the director of the hotel.
16
00:00:40,359 --> 00:00:43,920
-I went to the ceremony.
-Yes. Is he with you?
17
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,640
He was with me,
18
00:00:45,719 --> 00:00:48,640
but he insisted I let him out
on the side of the road.
19
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,719
I never told you about Eva,
Benedikt's mother.
20
00:00:54,159 --> 00:00:56,920
One day I came home and...
21
00:00:57,159 --> 00:00:58,960
Then just...
22
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,079
She was hanging here. In her nightie.
23
00:01:04,409 --> 00:01:07,280
He's behaving exactly
24
00:01:07,799 --> 00:01:09,049
like his mother did.
25
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,079
The incident in the UK...
26
00:01:11,159 --> 00:01:14,920
My brother said you lost
all contact with reality.
27
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,840
I cried for three days
when they took me to the hospital.
28
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:19,439
Something broke.
29
00:01:19,519 --> 00:01:22,920
"How far that little candle
throws its beams!
30
00:01:24,519 --> 00:01:28,239
So shines a good deed in a wicked world."
31
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,040
[somber music]
32
00:02:05,879 --> 00:02:07,840
You have to keep packing.
33
00:02:12,810 --> 00:02:14,879
-Hm?
-I don't want to.
34
00:02:29,719 --> 00:02:32,240
Come on, I'll help you.
35
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,400
Then we welcome people with champagne.
36
00:02:45,479 --> 00:02:52,000
The bar will be there
and then you replenish the glasses.
37
00:02:52,479 --> 00:02:54,240
Yes, great. Thanks.
38
00:03:09,439 --> 00:03:10,879
[sighs]
39
00:03:16,199 --> 00:03:18,199
[theme music]
40
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,599
We've started looking at the currency.
41
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,039
There's a report coming out soon.
42
00:03:33,039 --> 00:03:35,719
Then we got a comment
from the teachers' union.
43
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,840
They're talking about reducing
teachers' education, again.
44
00:03:39,919 --> 00:03:41,919
I wish we could pay them more.
45
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,199
Then you have to look at this
proposal about tax steps
46
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:48,520
from the tax inspector general.
47
00:03:49,039 --> 00:03:50,840
Can't we do something about it?
48
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,759
-The inspector general?
-No, the teachers.
49
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,039
Yes. We have to take a look at it.
50
00:03:59,599 --> 00:04:02,759
And remember,
the party is still waiting to know
51
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,400
who will become minister
instead of Eggert.
52
00:04:05,479 --> 00:04:07,080
Yes.
53
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:09,719
Listen.
54
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,479
Then you'll become president after lunch.
55
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:13,599
[in English]
No.
56
00:04:14,439 --> 00:04:16,800
-Really?
-She's going abroad.
57
00:04:16,879 --> 00:04:17,920
[gasps]
58
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,480
Shouldn't I accompany her to the airport?
59
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,000
-That's no longer the tradition.
-But I have to be there
60
00:04:23,079 --> 00:04:24,959
when I get the president's powers
for the first time.
61
00:04:25,050 --> 00:04:26,199
No, but...
62
00:04:27,050 --> 00:04:29,439
Okay, prepare yourself.
63
00:04:29,519 --> 00:04:33,000
You have to call me "Mr. President"
this afternoon.
64
00:04:34,610 --> 00:04:36,610
[somber music]
65
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,120
Are you asking him for advice?
66
00:04:51,199 --> 00:04:52,920
[chuckles, mumbles]
67
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,120
Before we start...
68
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:56,730
I can only talk generally.
69
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:57,839
[clears throat]
70
00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,000
Ready?
71
00:05:00,050 --> 00:05:01,199
[clears throat]
72
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,079
They're deporting
a Ukrainian gerontologist
73
00:05:05,170 --> 00:05:08,199
who has been denied a resident visa.
Is this the way we want to do things?
74
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,680
It's very sad to have to deport people
that want to live here,
75
00:05:13,759 --> 00:05:16,879
especially people with valuable knowledge.
76
00:05:16,959 --> 00:05:20,050
But I can't comment on individual cases...
77
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:21,560
Didn't you answer them?
78
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:23,839
It's nothing.
79
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,639
It becomes a problem
when it's in the media.
80
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,120
-Have you heard from Benedikt?
-No.
81
00:05:32,199 --> 00:05:34,519
[indistinct PA announcement]
82
00:05:43,439 --> 00:05:46,439
You know this isn't necessary.
83
00:05:46,519 --> 00:05:50,959
I know, but it's my first time
and it's such a cute tradition.
84
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:52,360
Yes.
85
00:05:52,439 --> 00:05:56,040
It will be very time-consuming
if you do it every time.
86
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:57,199
Yes.
87
00:05:58,279 --> 00:05:59,639
Madam President.
88
00:06:00,879 --> 00:06:02,399
Hand me your power.
89
00:06:03,959 --> 00:06:05,680
[both laughing]
90
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,319
-Have a good trip.
-Thank you.
91
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,680
-[indistinct PA announcement]
-[sighs]
92
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,199
Well, boys.
93
00:06:21,639 --> 00:06:25,160
I'll try this one. Boys...
94
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:26,959
I'm coming with you.
95
00:06:35,199 --> 00:06:37,879
[dreamy music]
96
00:06:40,639 --> 00:06:42,920
There will be protests
in the Breiðholt area
97
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,759
at the home of the Ukrainian family
that's going to be deported.
98
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,120
Can you turn up the volume?
99
00:06:48,199 --> 00:06:50,600
...but was denied
a medical license in Iceland.
100
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,160
Therefore, her application
for residence has been rejected.
101
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,399
Karl Þórsson is the president
of the School of Medicine.
102
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,240
What do you think about this?
103
00:06:59,319 --> 00:07:00,439
Not my department.
104
00:07:00,519 --> 00:07:02,279
...it's for the safety of patients.
105
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,639
A license here gives you
the license to practice
106
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,040
-in the European Economic Area.
-No, no...
107
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,560
It's a great responsibility
to issue a license like this.
108
00:07:12,639 --> 00:07:14,680
I'm going to miss...
109
00:07:15,439 --> 00:07:17,680
Icelandic coffee.
110
00:07:18,199 --> 00:07:19,839
Well, it's not really Icelandic.
111
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,199
It's just imported coffee.
112
00:07:21,279 --> 00:07:23,040
[sighs heavily]
113
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:24,959
[sniffles]
114
00:07:25,319 --> 00:07:26,920
[in English]
You know what I mean.
115
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,120
[sobs]
116
00:07:37,199 --> 00:07:39,720
Have you found a place to stay?
117
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,079
[breathes heavily]
118
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,639
I'm waiting for an answer from my uncle.
119
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,279
Okay.
120
00:07:51,879 --> 00:07:55,279
The Directorate of Foreigners
is behaving like the Gestapo!
121
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,600
-Is humanity forbidden?
-No.
122
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,519
-Is humanity forbidden?
-No!
123
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,040
-What's the prime minister's part in this?
-Not now.
124
00:08:05,279 --> 00:08:07,240
Are you here to throw them
out of the country?
125
00:08:07,319 --> 00:08:08,920
No, not at all.
126
00:08:11,399 --> 00:08:12,879
-Hello.
-Hello.
127
00:08:12,959 --> 00:08:16,319
-I have to speak to the family.
-We're a bit busy.
128
00:08:16,399 --> 00:08:20,800
Sorry, I'm the prime minister
and hold the power of the presidency.
129
00:08:20,879 --> 00:08:23,759
I demand you let me talk to the family.
130
00:08:23,839 --> 00:08:24,800
Yes...
131
00:08:24,879 --> 00:08:27,360
Hello. Benedikt.
132
00:08:27,439 --> 00:08:28,759
-Hi.
-Hi.
133
00:08:28,839 --> 00:08:30,319
-Hi.
-Hello.
134
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,399
Benedikt.
135
00:08:32,919 --> 00:08:34,879
Shouldn't we go in for a chat?
136
00:08:35,759 --> 00:08:37,639
[in English]
We should go inside to have a chat.
137
00:08:40,090 --> 00:08:43,639
It's a typical "computer says no" case.
138
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,090
She's a doctor.
139
00:08:45,159 --> 00:08:48,480
She can't work here
because her license isn't Icelandic.
140
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,600
Is that the reason they're deporting her?
141
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,519
Not quite, but the hospital suggested
that she could repeat
142
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,120
three years of her studies.
143
00:08:57,210 --> 00:09:00,039
But she had to take an entrance exam.
144
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:01,519
In Icelandic.
145
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,090
Which is ridiculous.
146
00:09:04,159 --> 00:09:06,450
Irina said, "No problem."
147
00:09:06,519 --> 00:09:08,210
How did you learn Icelandic?
148
00:09:09,639 --> 00:09:11,159
I just practice.
149
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:15,450
At the same time, she's working all day
cleaning hotel rooms.
150
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:17,600
But you passed?
151
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,480
-Yes.
-And there she is, repeating her studies
152
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,240
but had to decrease her workload to 40%,
153
00:09:26,330 --> 00:09:28,679
and that's when the Directorate
of Foreigners steps in.
154
00:09:28,759 --> 00:09:29,960
Why?
155
00:09:30,090 --> 00:09:33,639
Because then her wages are so low
that she doesn't fulfill
156
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:38,159
the minimum requirements and therefore
loses her right to reside here.
157
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,679
-That's ridiculous.
-She's appealed,
158
00:09:41,759 --> 00:09:44,090
but according to the new laws,
159
00:09:44,159 --> 00:09:46,799
that doesn't delay the deportation.
160
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,600
Benedikt, what happened in there?
161
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:54,330
[sighs]
162
00:09:54,399 --> 00:09:55,879
Isn't it strange
163
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,240
how we built a system based on prejudice?
164
00:10:00,330 --> 00:10:03,090
No. Not prejudice.
165
00:10:03,159 --> 00:10:05,240
On apartheid.
166
00:10:05,330 --> 00:10:08,039
We who are born here
and then the others...
167
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,210
And we throw talented people out
of the country, even doctors,
168
00:10:12,279 --> 00:10:15,120
even though we have
an urgent need for doctors.
169
00:10:15,210 --> 00:10:16,919
Yes, what do you mean?
170
00:10:17,639 --> 00:10:19,120
We in the government
171
00:10:20,210 --> 00:10:24,480
have decided to give them resident visas.
172
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,840
[all cheer]
173
00:10:26,919 --> 00:10:29,450
I want to talk about
the Directorate of Foreigners.
174
00:10:29,519 --> 00:10:32,240
The name itself reeks of prejudice,
"the Directorate of Foreigners."
175
00:10:32,330 --> 00:10:34,919
Shouldn't it be called
the Directorate of Immigration?
176
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,720
Or the Directorate of Reception?
Think about it.
177
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:41,600
Great.
178
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:47,159
It looks like remarkable changes
have happened here
179
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:52,120
as the prime minister himself arrived...
180
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:57,759
[beeps]
181
00:11:03,279 --> 00:11:05,399
No, Benedikt!
182
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,480
PRIME MINSTER GRANTS
RESIDENT VISA TO UKRAINIAN FAMILY
183
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,799
[line ringing]
184
00:11:16,879 --> 00:11:18,840
-Hi, there.
-What's going on?
185
00:11:18,919 --> 00:11:20,759
Going on? What?
186
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:25,159
-I mean, you gave some people a visa.
-Yes.
187
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,559
-But you're not allowed to do that.
-Hrefna...
188
00:11:27,639 --> 00:11:29,639
Just talk to Svanhvít.
She's the minister of the interior.
189
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,240
Yes, Svanhvít can do it...
190
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,720
It's very important.
191
00:11:34,799 --> 00:11:40,200
I know it's important, but it's also
important to do things correctly.
192
00:11:40,279 --> 00:11:42,600
-Hrefna, talk to Svanhvít for me.
-Me?
193
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,240
[hangs up]
194
00:11:45,919 --> 00:11:47,440
Hi.
195
00:11:47,799 --> 00:11:49,200
I decided to visit.
196
00:11:49,279 --> 00:11:50,679
[chuckles]
197
00:11:53,919 --> 00:11:57,679
-Nice to see you. Have a seat.
-Thank you.
198
00:11:57,759 --> 00:12:00,480
Isn't Karen looking forward
to the birthday party tonight?
199
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,919
-Tomorrow, actually.
-Tomorrow.
200
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,120
Right.
201
00:12:05,159 --> 00:12:09,279
The medical board met to talk
about the Ukrainian doctor.
202
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,240
I was just wondering
what you were thinking.
203
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,279
[clicks tongue, inhales]
204
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,159
Yes... Um...
205
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,120
[blows raspberry, clicks tongue]
206
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,200
Good question.
207
00:12:21,279 --> 00:12:24,720
Why do you insist that educated doctors
repeat their studies?
208
00:12:24,799 --> 00:12:26,240
I'm not sure...
209
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,720
-Who are you excluding?
-I think that's not...
210
00:12:28,799 --> 00:12:30,960
People from Eastern Europe, India, China.
211
00:12:31,039 --> 00:12:33,519
Everybody who's not part
of the Western hegemony.
212
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:34,639
Of course not.
213
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,879
Here we have a very well-educated doctor.
214
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,120
And the system says, "Go away.
215
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,440
You're not part of us."
216
00:12:42,519 --> 00:12:43,919
Do you know what we call this?
217
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:46,440
Racism.
218
00:12:46,519 --> 00:12:48,320
Quality standards are not racism.
219
00:12:48,399 --> 00:12:50,279
They can be racism.
220
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,960
It's about ensuring the safety of patients
and protecting the healthcare system.
221
00:12:54,039 --> 00:12:57,799
Is it dangerous to hire
an educated gerontologist?
222
00:12:57,879 --> 00:13:00,799
-What if she doesn't speak Icelandic?
-Doesn't speak Icelandic. Þorgeir...
223
00:13:00,879 --> 00:13:02,440
The body isn't in Icelandic.
224
00:13:02,919 --> 00:13:05,759
Only 300,000 people speak Icelandic.
225
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,960
Really, nobody speaks Icelandic.
226
00:13:10,399 --> 00:13:14,559
If the body had a language,
it might be Spanish or Russian... No!
227
00:13:14,639 --> 00:13:16,080
It's in Latin.
228
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,799
-Benedikt, think about precedent.
-[piano plays]
229
00:13:20,879 --> 00:13:23,960
Opening the country
to all Ukrainian doctors?
230
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,159
[piano playing]
231
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,279
-Þorgeir.
-We'd get thousands of applications,
232
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,440
and we can't discriminate.
233
00:13:31,519 --> 00:13:34,759
You're encouraging thousands
of doctors to move here.
234
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:36,720
Listen.
235
00:13:37,519 --> 00:13:39,799
The whole of the 20th century,
236
00:13:39,879 --> 00:13:43,919
90% of doctors returned home
after studying a specialty.
237
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,240
In the last ten years... 40%.
238
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,840
40%. 40%.
239
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,360
Forty.
240
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,039
There's a shortage of manpower
in the healthcare system,
241
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,159
and I can fix it in the blink of an eye.
242
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,759
Let's just open up
and save the healthcare system.
243
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,080
Humanity. It pays.
244
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:10,519
Benedikt, how are you
dealing with the pressure?
245
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,200
-Fine.
-Do you sleep and...
246
00:14:15,279 --> 00:14:18,360
Sure. Well, yeah...
247
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,039
Iceland doesn't sleep.
248
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,600
Yes, but...
You could try to sleep a little.
249
00:14:22,679 --> 00:14:24,200
[Benedikt laughs]
250
00:14:25,639 --> 00:14:28,440
-Do not disturb the waking men.
-What?
251
00:14:29,159 --> 00:14:32,159
"The waking men's minds wander widely,
252
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,960
new worlds open when night falls,
253
00:14:37,879 --> 00:14:41,200
do not disturb the waking men
who stare into the darkness.
254
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:47,200
There they sit and see the whole world.
255
00:14:49,039 --> 00:14:52,279
The spirit flies through
its unmeasured space,
256
00:14:53,279 --> 00:14:55,919
the earth becomes transparent
257
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,480
and the darkness lights their way."
258
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:05,639
A poem by Davíð Stefánsson.
259
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:09,960
I see.
260
00:15:10,519 --> 00:15:13,559
I have to go to a meeting.
261
00:15:15,159 --> 00:15:16,559
I'll see you.
262
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,200
[sighs]
263
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,080
Good morning.
264
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,200
Hi.
265
00:15:29,519 --> 00:15:30,559
[phone rings]
266
00:15:30,639 --> 00:15:31,759
What?
267
00:15:32,399 --> 00:15:33,840
So...
268
00:15:33,919 --> 00:15:35,799
The Ukrainian family...
269
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,279
Right, the one the prime minister
granted a visa without asking me?
270
00:15:41,039 --> 00:15:43,720
Right. Is that a problem?
271
00:15:43,799 --> 00:15:45,320
It's ridiculous.
272
00:15:45,399 --> 00:15:48,600
-He told the media and...
-I don't care.
273
00:15:48,679 --> 00:15:52,559
The prime minister can't take powers
from others in government.
274
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,639
-There are precedents...
-Aren't you a lawyer?
275
00:15:58,679 --> 00:16:01,759
-Yes.
-Then you understand it's ridiculous.
276
00:16:10,519 --> 00:16:12,480
Just so I understand...
277
00:16:12,559 --> 00:16:16,080
You're not going to help
the prime minister?
278
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:18,200
Look.
279
00:16:18,759 --> 00:16:22,039
Help or not, I have to follow the law.
280
00:16:23,519 --> 00:16:24,639
Okay.
281
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:32,759
[whistling]
282
00:16:35,559 --> 00:16:36,879
[slurps]
283
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,879
Can you tell me what's going on?
284
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,440
-Regarding?
-The Ukrainians.
285
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,159
I look like an idiot.
I told the media this morning
286
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,039
that the system couldn't allow
special treatment.
287
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,399
That's true, it can't.
288
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,159
Yes?
289
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:56,919
I'll speak to Benedikt.
290
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,480
[sighs]
291
00:17:02,919 --> 00:17:04,170
[slurps]
292
00:17:04,759 --> 00:17:07,119
It's like having a birthday party
in a palace.
293
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,119
[chuckles]
294
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:09,960
-Isn't it nice?
-Yes.
295
00:17:10,890 --> 00:17:13,119
The musician wants to practice.
296
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,279
[gasps]
297
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,410
[piano plays]
298
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:25,119
[singing soft music]
299
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:59,890
[singing opera music]
300
00:18:15,279 --> 00:18:17,000
What are you singing?
301
00:18:17,079 --> 00:18:21,000
A Hungarian operetta
that Icelanders borrowed.
302
00:18:21,079 --> 00:18:22,119
[soft chuckle]
303
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:27,759
[Karen singing]
304
00:18:27,839 --> 00:18:31,279
-Hey, can I talk to you?
-Yes.
305
00:18:39,279 --> 00:18:40,680
[clears throat]
306
00:18:41,079 --> 00:18:42,759
What's going on?
307
00:18:42,839 --> 00:18:45,960
Steinunn, I know it sounds ridiculous,
but...
308
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,799
Can you postpone the birthday party?
309
00:18:51,799 --> 00:18:53,200
Why?
310
00:18:53,279 --> 00:18:56,359
I visited Benedikt and...
311
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,920
[sighs]
I think we have to take care of him.
312
00:19:03,410 --> 00:19:05,559
Do you really want to discuss this
on my birthday?
313
00:19:05,650 --> 00:19:06,720
Yes.
314
00:19:07,559 --> 00:19:10,000
He has difficulty with pressure and...
315
00:19:10,079 --> 00:19:12,240
-I think this is not...
-Þorgeir.
316
00:19:12,319 --> 00:19:15,000
I discussed the incident
in the UK with him.
317
00:19:15,079 --> 00:19:19,319
He broke down while studying.
It's completely normal.
318
00:19:19,410 --> 00:19:21,920
Steinunn, I was there. It wasn't normal.
319
00:19:22,890 --> 00:19:26,680
He needs help.
I can't stand by and watch while...
320
00:19:26,759 --> 00:19:27,920
[sighs]
321
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,480
I swore an oath to help all my patients...
322
00:19:31,559 --> 00:19:33,440
-Patients?
-Steinunn.
323
00:19:33,519 --> 00:19:36,440
-This has nothing to do with you.
-He's bipolar.
324
00:19:40,519 --> 00:19:41,650
Okay.
325
00:19:44,319 --> 00:19:46,960
It wasn't an unanimous diagnosis, but...
326
00:19:47,039 --> 00:19:48,720
I'm just saying...
327
00:19:49,759 --> 00:19:53,000
we shouldn't increase
the pressure on him right now.
328
00:19:53,410 --> 00:19:56,170
I know that you and Dad have
329
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,000
some opinions about Benedikt
330
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,440
and everything else,
331
00:20:01,519 --> 00:20:03,890
but can I please celebrate
my birthday in peace?
332
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,170
This isn't about some shitty party!
333
00:20:08,559 --> 00:20:09,559
Hi.
334
00:20:09,650 --> 00:20:11,079
-Hi, honey.
-Everything's ready.
335
00:20:11,170 --> 00:20:12,170
Ready?
336
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,359
I'm going to sing
and Benedikt is going to play.
337
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:15,839
[exhales sharply]
338
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,599
My love, do you really want to go
to a party for adults?
339
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,559
Yes. I've been practicing.
340
00:20:20,650 --> 00:20:22,279
I'll think you'll be very bored.
341
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:26,799
-No, I'm going to enjoy it.
-It will be fun.
342
00:20:32,799 --> 00:20:34,119
Come with me.
343
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,359
-Hello, captain.
-Have you fixed things for the Ukrainians?
344
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,799
-Yes, we're doing it.
-Great.
345
00:20:46,890 --> 00:20:49,279
It's great that we can do things
for people that need it.
346
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,240
-It's what we promised.
-Exactly.
347
00:20:51,319 --> 00:20:54,599
-So, are we going to give them a visa?
-Yes.
348
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,200
Isn't it right to do so? I think so.
349
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,680
If that doesn't work, you can put
a provisional law in effect
350
00:21:01,759 --> 00:21:04,650
-since you hold the president's power.
-Yes.
351
00:21:05,079 --> 00:21:06,759
I'll talk to you later.
352
00:21:08,279 --> 00:21:09,440
Hello.
353
00:21:09,519 --> 00:21:13,480
-What did Svanhvít say?
-It doesn't work.
354
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,170
But I put an emphasis on it.
355
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,440
Svanhvít says no way.
356
00:21:18,519 --> 00:21:20,960
She can't put this to bed

Why didn't you tell me right away?
358

-I just arrived.
-Yes.
359
00:21:28,559 --> 00:21:30,039

-We have to find a solution.

-Yes.
-Yes?
363
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,720
The only other solution
is calling parliament together
364
00:21:42,799 --> 00:21:45,759
and approving a law
granting them citizenship.
365
00:21:45,839 --> 00:21:46,890
No.
366
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:54,839
Are you ready?

Ta-da!
368
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,200
-A new bed.
-Mm-hm.
369
00:21:59,519 --> 00:22:02,319
-Do I live here now?
-Mm-hm.
370
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:04,559

Are you coming home?
375
00:22:23,319 --> 00:22:26,160
No, not right away. Mom's at work.
376
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,160
I have to finish a lot of things.
377
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,759
My grandmother bought a bed for me today.
378
00:22:31,839 --> 00:22:32,920
Really?
379
00:22:33,519 --> 00:22:34,759
Can I talk to her?
380
00:22:34,839 --> 00:22:37,920
-She wants to talk to you.
-Mm-hm.
381

Hello, my love.
382
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,400
Did you buy a bed for Sindri?
383
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,799
Yes. I found a great used bed
on the Internet.
384
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:47,920
The Internet? Used?
385
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,240
It's a great bed,
386
00:22:50,319 --> 00:22:53,400
and he needs a good bed
since you're going to stay here.

I don't know if we're
going to stay with you.

Okay.

Excuse me.

Two glasses of champagne.
404
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,839
That's big news.
405
00:23:51,519 --> 00:23:52,960
It'll be great.

How is the first lady?
417
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,440
-Wasn't it queen?
-You've been demoted.
418
00:24:42,519 --> 00:24:45,160
Joke. You're my queen.
419
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,599
I invited a few Ukrainians
to your birthday party.
420
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:53,440
-What?
-We have to give them a warm welcome.
421
00:24:53,519 --> 00:24:54,799
Invite them to parties.
422
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,640
And do we have to use
my birthday party for that?
423
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,880
Maybe I should invite all
refugees in Iceland to the party?
424
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:04,920
-Right...
-Yes!
425
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,400
-We can afford it.
-Mm.

Both as a family and as a nation.
427

Listen, I've been thinking.
428
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,119
I'm kind of sick,
429
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:20,880
and I don't know if I have enough energy
for a party right now.
430
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:25,880
We should cancel it, or at least delay.
431
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:28,920
Come here.
432
00:25:30,279 --> 00:25:32,440

434

Can I ask you one thing?
435
00:25:36,559 --> 00:25:38,119
Is it hormones?
436
00:25:39,559 --> 00:25:41,119
-Yes.
-Yes.
437
00:25:42,519 --> 00:25:44,359
I'm sure it's hormones.

-You have to rest.
-Mm.
439
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,079
Take care. You can't drink coffee.

Wow, you're getting a little baby bump.

A little belly-time.
442
00:25:57,279 --> 00:26:00,680
We don't know if you're a boy or a girl,
443
00:26:00,759 --> 00:26:04,519
but we suspect you're one of the two.
And I'm thinking about names and maybe
444
00:26:04,599 --> 00:26:06,839
Friðbjörn, if it's a boy.
445
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:09,400
Or...
446
00:26:10,599 --> 00:26:12,839
Kyrrþey, if it's a girl.
I've never heard of that.
447
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,440
I find it beautiful. It's unusual...

-I think it's too much right now.

Hi, Steinunn. What are you going to wear
for the birthday party?

-A dress, I think.
-Great. Me, too.

-Good night.

Are you joking?

And he just nailed it.
464

Nothing written down.
465
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,119
He's rather unpredictable, isn't he?

You know, no.

-Exactly.

-Yes. I'll pay.

-Yes.
-Sure?

-I did.

It's your boss's birthday.

Was the state paying 70,000 for flowers?

Yes. Benedikt will fix it.

They're deporting Irina and Anatoly.

You can stop it.

Yes, I'm fine. What about you?

Put it on the parliament's schedule
for the next session.

and come back home.

00:31:56,119 --> 00:31:58,519
Article two.
This law takes effect immediately.
536
00:31:58,599 --> 00:32:01,720
The prime minister's office,
September 4th, 2020.'"
537
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,559
They are Icelandic citizens.
You have no standing here.
538
00:32:10,519 --> 00:32:12,400
Congratulations!
539
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,119
[laughs]
540
00:32:15,079 --> 00:32:17,279
Let's have some coffee.
541
00:32:32,799 --> 00:32:35,519
Okay, I know it's all said and done,
542
00:32:35,599 --> 00:32:38,599
but how did you do it?
543
00:32:39,799 --> 00:32:44,759
I put a provisional law in effect as
prime minister and acting president.
544
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,960
-And who signed the law?
-I did.
545
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,960
-And?
-Just me.
546
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,480
Nobody else?
547
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:55,960
No.
548
00:32:57,039 --> 00:32:58,160
Can I see the papers?
549
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:10,680
Have you sent it?
550
00:33:10,759 --> 00:33:14,759
-I'm just sending it to the publisher.
-Don't do it. It's invalid.
551
00:33:14,839 --> 00:33:17,279
-But I'm acting president.
-Yes.
552
00:33:17,359 --> 00:33:20,119
You, the speaker, and the chief justice.
553
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:21,279
Together.
554
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,880
Two out of the three of you have to sign.
555
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,759
You're breaking the constitution.
556
00:33:27,839 --> 00:33:31,039
Of course not. Grímur will sign.
557
00:33:31,119 --> 00:33:33,160
It's illegal to do it afterwards.
558
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,359
What? He won't tell.
559
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,960
We can trust Grímur.
I don't trust anyone more than him.
560
00:33:40,039 --> 00:33:41,279
Don't you agree?
561
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,640
He's gone crazy.
562
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,599
Didn't you say that Svanhvít
would never agree to it?
563
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,839
Relax, boys.
564
00:33:53,839 --> 00:33:55,279
Relax?
565
00:33:56,319 --> 00:33:58,119
The law is invalid.
566
00:33:58,200 --> 00:33:59,319
What do you mean?
567
00:34:00,119 --> 00:34:01,880
Svanhvít didn't do anything.
568
00:34:02,319 --> 00:34:04,039
He's using the power of the presidency,
569
00:34:04,119 --> 00:34:07,640
but he can't do it without
two signatures. His own...
570
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,039
And mine or the chief justice's.
He's only got his own.
571
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,159
Does he really not know that?
572
00:34:15,769 --> 00:34:17,239
He just realized.
573
00:34:17,769 --> 00:34:21,079
He called me seven times in three minutes.
574
00:34:21,679 --> 00:34:24,159
-And what are you going to do?
-Look.
575
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,159
This is the situation.
576
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,239
The prime minister is isolated
and has broken the constitution.
577
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,809
This is your opportunity.
578
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,519
What do you mean?
579
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,199
Go to the media and tell the nation.
580
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,239
Why don't you do it?
581
00:34:42,329 --> 00:34:43,679
Eggert...
582
00:34:43,769 --> 00:34:47,079
You need it. He just fired you.
583
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,440
I agree with Grímur.
584
00:34:50,519 --> 00:34:52,599
If you stop it...
585
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:59,440
Everybody will see you're
the leader the party needs.
586
00:35:00,559 --> 00:35:02,079
Talk to Svanhvít...
587
00:35:02,599 --> 00:35:05,679
And I'll prepare the party
for a new leader.
588
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,199
Yes.
589
00:35:11,289 --> 00:35:12,360
Good morning.
590
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:13,769
Good morning, Minister.
591
00:35:14,119 --> 00:35:16,079
-Hello.
-Hello.
592
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:18,809
Thank you for receiving me
on such short notice.
593
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:20,679
-No problem.
-Listen...
594
00:35:22,039 --> 00:35:24,199
Laws about citizenship
595
00:35:24,289 --> 00:35:26,239
for the Ukrainian doctor
and her son from this morning.
596
00:35:26,329 --> 00:35:27,440
Right.
597
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,239
I need you to sign it.
598
00:35:31,329 --> 00:35:32,809
The law you put in effect
599
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,639
without getting the go-ahead
from the speaker of parliament.
600
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:38,519
-And didn't present it to parliament.
-Yes.
601
00:35:38,599 --> 00:35:40,329
Parliament isn't in session.
602
00:35:40,639 --> 00:35:42,769
Everything is wrong about this.
603
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:47,039
The constitution was written
to stop this kind of thing.
604
00:35:47,119 --> 00:35:49,400
But the constitution allows
provisional laws.
605
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:50,920
Yes, when it's necessary and urgent.
606
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,039
Humanity is necessary and urgent, Lárus.
607
00:35:54,119 --> 00:35:55,960
Not as the law sees it.
608
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:58,679
Don't we have to review the law, then?
609
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:00,719
The concept?
610
00:36:00,809 --> 00:36:04,809
If we don't have space for humanity
in this bureaucratic monster...
611
00:36:05,199 --> 00:36:08,769
Don't we need new ways to run things?
612
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,289
I can't help you.
613
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:14,809
Lárus, I've met them.
614
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,199
They are good people.
She is a very intelligent doctor.
615
00:36:18,289 --> 00:36:21,920
He's like a young Viking chieftain.
616
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:23,809
They are good citizens.
617
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:24,880
Mm-hm.
618
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,199
He might be the next Nobel Laureate.
619
00:36:27,289 --> 00:36:29,039
We need people like that.
620
00:36:29,119 --> 00:36:33,289
They're going to buy milk,
cream, and so on.
621
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:35,920
They're going to lift society.
622
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,920
We can't let a detail
like a signature stop us.
623
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,159
We have to work together.
624
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:43,400
Please...
625
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,400
Sign. I'm just working for justice.
626
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,329
So am I.
627
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:54,960
But there's no justice
in breaking the law when it suits you.
628
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,289
Lárus.
629
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,039
[tense music]
630
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:28,960
Hrefna, it didn't work.
631
00:37:29,039 --> 00:37:31,079
The police are taking them to the airport.
632
00:37:31,159 --> 00:37:32,880
They have to follow the law.
633
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,599
-We have to do something.
-Did you call Grímur?
634
00:37:35,679 --> 00:37:38,329
-Yes, but he doesn't answer.
-I'll try.
635
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:40,679
Do that! Why haven't you done that?
636
00:37:41,159 --> 00:37:43,329
-I...
-[busy signal beeping]
637
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:48,159
This is the 3:00 news.
638
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,639
The prime minister has put
a provisional law in effect
639
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,039
granting citizenship
to a Ukrainian family,
640
00:37:54,119 --> 00:37:56,329
going against the decision
of the Directorate of Foreigners.
641
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,559
We have Eggert Einarsson,
member of parliament, here with us.
642
00:37:58,639 --> 00:38:02,199
You state that the law is invalid. Why?
643
00:38:02,289 --> 00:38:08,639
Yes, this is unprecedented
in Icelandic history.
644
00:38:09,679 --> 00:38:14,400
The prime minister made a law on his own,
in the name of the president.
645
00:38:14,809 --> 00:38:17,360
He broke the constitution.
646
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,159
I notified the Directorate of Foreigners,
647
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,239
and it reacted in accordance
with the valid law.
648
00:38:23,329 --> 00:38:27,360
Then we have to wonder if we want
a prime minister who breaks laws.
649
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,039
Wait, are you saying
650
00:38:29,119 --> 00:38:31,880
that the prime minister
is guilty of a crime?
651
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,360
Yes. I'm saying that.
652
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,329
Eggert, you were just fired from
the government. Aren't you biased?
653
00:38:39,039 --> 00:38:41,679
That doesn't matter.
654
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:46,079
What matters is that there is one person
655
00:38:46,159 --> 00:38:49,960
who tried to be above the system.
656
00:38:50,039 --> 00:38:53,039
We can't run a country like that.
657
00:38:53,119 --> 00:38:54,559
The law is invalid...
658
00:38:54,639 --> 00:38:57,840
And the Directorate of Foreigners
can't act according to it.
659
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,239
-Eggert Einarsson, thank you.
-Thanks.
660
00:39:00,809 --> 00:39:02,480
On to the next matter,
661
00:39:02,559 --> 00:39:04,719
the treaty of the leadership
of the European Union
662
00:39:04,809 --> 00:39:08,480
on who should be appointed the head
of the EU for the next five years
663
00:39:08,559 --> 00:39:11,159
has left many of the members
of the European parliament with...
664
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:12,480
Are you here?
665
00:39:12,809 --> 00:39:13,809
[door closes]
666
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,199
Benedikt called you, like,
a hundred times.
667
00:39:17,289 --> 00:39:18,719
I was waiting for you.
668
00:39:19,599 --> 00:39:22,960
Let's not make it personal.
It's about the party.
669
00:39:23,039 --> 00:39:26,809
-We all look like idiots.
-You don't understand a thing.
670
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:28,039
I do.
671
00:39:28,119 --> 00:39:30,000
-You're getting revenge.
-No.
672
00:39:30,079 --> 00:39:32,400
Right now there is a coup
going on in the party.
673
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,329
Eggert is going to overthrow Benedikt
and take over.
674
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:36,960
No shit.
675
00:39:37,039 --> 00:39:39,880
I told him the law was invalid
and sent him to the media.
676
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,400
Grímur...
677
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:45,440
-This is lousy...
-Give it to me.
678
00:39:49,769 --> 00:39:51,360
We publish this...
679
00:39:51,809 --> 00:39:55,119
I tell the nation that the law
was valid the whole time.
680
00:39:55,199 --> 00:39:57,880
-So Eggert's gone.
-I don't understand this.
681
00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:59,119
It was you that...
682
00:39:59,199 --> 00:40:01,329
I just got rid of Eggert
and saved you two.
683
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:02,599
Saved us?
684
00:40:02,679 --> 00:40:05,440
I'm doing it for you
because you're in a bad position.
685
00:40:05,519 --> 00:40:08,039
-I am?
-I think Benedikt's time is up.
686
00:40:08,119 --> 00:40:10,519
[suspenseful music]
687
00:40:14,079 --> 00:40:15,199
I...
688
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,159
I'm giving you time to react.
689
00:40:23,639 --> 00:40:25,480
Get out ahead of him.
690
00:40:25,559 --> 00:40:28,159
Let's just deal with this mess right now.
691
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:30,769
Then everything will calm down.
692

694
00:41:03,079 --> 00:41:04,519
Where is he?
695
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:08,360
-Congratulations.
-Thank you.
696
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:09,880
When am I going to sing?
697
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,400
-We're waiting for Benedikt.
-Should I call him?
698
00:41:13,809 --> 00:41:16,559
-No, listen. He'll come soon.
-Okay.
699
00:41:16,639 --> 00:41:19,840
Come on. I'm looking forward
to hearing you sing.
700
00:41:23,159 --> 00:41:24,769
Sorry.

Thank you.

-Where do we go?
-Upstairs.
704
00:41:35,599 --> 00:41:37,159
-Enjoy the flight.
-Thank you.

Sorry.

I've got good news.

You're Icelandic citizens.
712
00:41:54,329 --> 00:41:56,239
No, no. Not again.
713
00:41:56,329 --> 00:41:57,639
What do you mean?
714
00:41:58,119 --> 00:42:00,639
I can't handle any more disappointment.
715
00:42:01,119 --> 00:42:03,119
It's all clear now.
716
00:42:03,199 --> 00:42:04,329
Again and again.
717
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:05,840
[in English]
You know, it's so difficult.
718
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:07,159
It's very bad joke.
719
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,769
This soulless system
makes trouble for everyone...
720
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:10,880
Benedikt...
721
00:42:11,289 --> 00:42:12,559
[in English]
Please.
722
00:42:12,639 --> 00:42:14,920
I watched the news all day...
723
00:42:15,159 --> 00:42:18,519
And now I know we are not
going to be Icelanders.
724
00:42:18,599 --> 00:42:19,840
-You are.
-No.
725
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:21,519
No, Benedikt.
726
00:42:21,599 --> 00:42:22,880
I understand.
727
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:24,769
You want to help.
728
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:28,440
And I understand...
729
00:42:29,039 --> 00:42:31,519
You can't do it.
730
00:42:31,599 --> 00:42:33,920
[in English]
So, please, it's so difficult for us.
731
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:35,809
We are not toys, you know.
732
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,769
-We are human.
-[mumbling]
733
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:39,920
Listen.
734
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,159
This is Hallgrímur.
He's the speaker of parliament.
735
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:45,920
He signed the laws with me.
736
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,480
They're valid. You're supposed to be here.
737
00:42:49,559 --> 00:42:51,360
Even though I have to turn
everything upside down.
738
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,039
You are Icelandic.
739
00:42:53,119 --> 00:42:54,639
[sobs]
740
00:42:56,769 --> 00:42:58,119
[relieved groan]
741
00:43:01,769 --> 00:43:03,440
[mumbles]
742
00:43:03,519 --> 00:43:04,519
Yes.
743
00:43:04,599 --> 00:43:06,880
Okay, "Ási has a lock."
744
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:08,599
Wasn't I going to pick you up
at the office?
745
00:43:08,679 --> 00:43:10,599
Sorry, I was delayed.
746
00:43:10,679 --> 00:43:12,960
Okay. I'm outside.
747
00:43:13,039 --> 00:43:14,239
Shouldn't we meet at the party?
748
00:43:14,329 --> 00:43:18,119
-Okay, I'll see you there.
-Okay, bye.
749
00:43:20,119 --> 00:43:23,119
Here is the prime minister.
750
00:43:23,199 --> 00:43:25,559
Now we have two more Icelanders.
751
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:26,809
Come on.
752
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:28,360
[Benedikt laughs]
753
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,559
Here is Hallgrímur Tómasson.
754
00:43:30,639 --> 00:43:33,880
Is it true they have
Icelandic citizenship?
755
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:37,559
I can only tell you the law
was valid the whole time.
756
00:43:37,639 --> 00:43:42,199
The nation witnessed a very ugly
political game by Eggert Einarsson.
757
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,159
Do you mean Eggert was lying?
758
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:51,480
Yes. And this innocent family
became a victim of his lies.
759
00:43:51,679 --> 00:43:53,920
I signed the laws with pride last night
760
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,199
because it's important to treat
everyone well,
761
00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:57,840
both Icelanders and foreigners.
762
00:43:58,239 --> 00:43:59,440
Thank you.
763
00:43:59,519 --> 00:44:00,800
Thank you.
764
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:01,920
-Grímur.
-Yes.
765
00:44:02,639 --> 00:44:04,119
[mumbles]
766
00:44:04,199 --> 00:44:06,199
-Thank you.
-No problem.
767
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,480
I knew it. You're in the right place.
768
00:44:08,559 --> 00:44:10,159
-What?
-As speaker.
769
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,480
You're a great speaker.
770
00:44:13,119 --> 00:44:15,639
I'm so happy. My idea was brilliant.
771
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:17,920
I knew you'd be great.
772
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:19,639
[Benedikt laughs]
773
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:21,800
Yes, you knew it.
774
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:22,760
[car door closes]
775
00:44:25,679 --> 00:44:29,159
-Hi. Congratulations.
-Thank you.
776
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,760
I didn't know I invited the newsroom.
777
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:36,320
No. I'm with Hrefna.
778
00:44:39,079 --> 00:44:42,280
-She's not here either.
-No, she's on her way.
779
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:44,719
[car horn honks]
780
00:44:45,079 --> 00:44:46,599
He's here!
781
00:45:00,639 --> 00:45:04,719
Good evening. Welcome!
782
00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,039
-Hi, my darling.
-Benedikt!
783
00:45:07,119 --> 00:45:08,679
[laughs]
784
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,280
My love.
785
00:45:13,079 --> 00:45:14,880
[groaning]
786
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:19,320
[laughs]
787
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:20,960
Sorry I'm late.
788
00:45:21,039 --> 00:45:22,679
I want to introduce you to...
789
00:45:23,039 --> 00:45:25,679
Brand-new citizens.
790
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:27,920
Anatoly and Irina.
791
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:29,400
Hello.
792
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:33,400
-Happy birthday.
-Thank you.
793
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,199
I'm sorry.
794
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:39,559
It was terrible.
795
00:45:39,639 --> 00:45:41,960
-What?
-I didn't have a gift.
796
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,639
Yes, I had flowers I bought
at a gas station.
797
00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,360
But she looked like
I was giving her slime.
798
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:49,599
[chuckles]
799
00:45:49,679 --> 00:45:50,679
Sorry.
800
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,760
It's not every day
801
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,039
the queen turns 40 years old...
802
00:45:55,119 --> 00:45:59,400
And I want to quote Hannes Hafstein,
the first minister of Iceland,
803
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:01,440
he had this shack built.
804
00:46:01,679 --> 00:46:04,519
And he said... Yes.
805
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:10,320
"From a crystal glass,
I drank golden wine.
806
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:14,079
And joy kissed my lips,
807
00:46:14,159 --> 00:46:17,440
in a daring game my soul danced
808
00:46:17,519 --> 00:46:20,920
like a half-naked woman."
809
00:46:21,159 --> 00:46:22,440
Cheers.
810
00:46:22,519 --> 00:46:23,920
Or as we say in Ukraine...
811
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,599
[both speaking Ukrainian]
812
00:46:26,679 --> 00:46:27,639
[laughs]
813
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:29,559
Cheers.
814
00:46:29,639 --> 00:46:31,960
[applause]
815
00:46:39,679 --> 00:46:41,639
[urinating]
816
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:42,840
Hello.
817
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:44,519
Hi.
818
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:47,599
You're always writing
about politics, right?
819
00:46:48,639 --> 00:46:50,480
Yes, there's always something.
820
00:46:52,199 --> 00:46:54,519
Somebody has to keep an eye on you.
821
00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:59,880
If you want a story that matters,
I would look into Benedikt.
822
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:01,800
No.
823
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:08,440
The law states that ministers
must be of sound mind.
824
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:10,000
[chuckles]
825
00:47:10,079 --> 00:47:11,800
[water running]
826
00:47:13,119 --> 00:47:14,039
What?
827
00:47:14,119 --> 00:47:17,559
It could be interesting to check
if he has a story.
828
00:47:17,639 --> 00:47:19,480
Or his family.
829
00:47:19,559 --> 00:47:21,239
It's inherited.
830
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,000
[water running]
831
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,000

835
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:50,480
If there is someone
836
00:47:50,559 --> 00:47:55,239
who Steinunn loves more than me,
then it is this
837
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,960
little fairy, this jewel,
838
00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:00,800
a dream, a cutie. Karen!
839
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:03,280
She's going to
840
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:05,159
sing something for us.
841
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:07,039
What are you going to sing?
842
00:48:07,119 --> 00:48:09,360
I'm Home. Happy birthday, Steinunn.
843
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:10,880
[laughter]
844
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:13,719
-Are you ready?
-Yes.
845
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:14,840
Okay.

850
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,159
And everybody sing!

What are you doing?
857
00:50:34,039 --> 00:50:35,719
This can't go on.
858
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:37,440
What?
859
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:40,639
I know you're under a lot of pressure,
860
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:45,559
but you've stopped listening
to everything I say.
861

I've done everything I can
to make this party perfect.
864
00:50:54,159 --> 00:50:56,159
I bought flowers for tens of thousands,
I took a day off,
865
00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:59,559
-I used the official residence...
-You destroyed my birthday.
866
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:04,320
You humiliated my niece.
867
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,360
Are you kidding? For real?
868
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,719
I was ashamed of you.
869
00:51:11,519 --> 00:51:13,400
This is how you thank me?
870
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:16,400
If something was wrong,
it was your family.
871
00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:18,199
They can't sing...
872
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,000
And never have any fun.
873
00:51:20,599 --> 00:51:23,199
