I think about you all the time.

You came home late 'cause you had a meeting?
- Yes.

He said there was no meeting.
- Ester, please...

Britt Gahn will be elected in the City Council
and she wants me as her secretary.

We have an idea for a TV show,
we'd like to discuss it with your husband.

My husband?
- You think we can reach an agreement?

How do you say "you have beautiful eyes"?
- "Hai gli occhi belli".

This damn urge I feel...
I'm trying to resist but I can't.

We'll go to a doctor.
There are ways.

You can be cured, Gustaf.

We could drop everything.
We'll move to Paris, my love.

Where were you?
- You know it.

No, I don't.

"Without you I wouldn't have survived.
Kisses, Suzanne."

Yes, I saw Suzanne.

She's presenting her book
so I went there and got me a copy.

You went out together?
- No, we did not.

Why didn't you tell me?
- I knew how you'd have reacted.

How?
- Exaggerating.

You meet an ex lover behind my back,
I think I'm entitled to some reaction.

Ok, I should have told you
but Suzanne is an important part of my life.

You're gonna end this now.
- You don't know what you're saying.

She ruined your life once.
You were depressed when I met you.

Give me the book.
- No.

I don't want you to see her again.
- I heard that. Give me the book.

Say it then.

The book.
- Say it.

Say it!
- Why are you yelling?

Hey, girls... we're not yelling.

We were just talking too loud.

Let's see who gets upstairs first!

EPISODE 17

Yes, I... I have certain impulses, as if...

...as if I'm not in control of myself.

You hear voices?
- No, it's not that...

It's a desire for men.

You acted on these impulses?
- Yes.

How do you feel about it?
- I feel guilty, ashamed...

For my wife, who has a perverted husband.
- I know Gustaf is not like that.

I know about schizophrenia,
when one has multiple personalities.

Yes but it's different from
what you're telling me.

What can help my husband?
- Conversation therapy.

Medicines can also help.
It'll take a big effort.

I need help now,
I can't go on like this.

Are you feeling depressed?

Very much.
- You ever think about taking your own life?

Yes, in the worst moments.

Electro-convulsive therapy might be a choice.

Electro-convulsive?
- It's also known as shock treatment.

It's too dangerous.
- It's a good remedy against depression.

Alicia Karlund's brother did it
and now he needs constant care.

He can't even feed himself anymore.

Wasn't he ill before?
- Yes but now he's a shadow of himself.

You might not be yourself anymore.

Don't you wanna get to know our baby?

Let's try therapy and medicines first.

Here's the numbers on Bella Italia.
Unfortunately, we're loss-making.

But we sold out the opening.
- The following week wasn't good.

What went wrong?
- Too many expenses.

Pricy products and more waste.

You call feedstock "waste"?
- Yes if it's not used in the menu.

Sounds a bit far-fetched.
This week we'll pitch pasta and the new sides.

Then he must have just changed it.
- You should have checked with Calle first.

Turning the tables again?
- But it's the truth!

You're making us pay for the bad days?
- There's no reports needed for this.

You booked us a drug addict.
- If you mean Borchert, he's not using anymore.

Yes he is.
- Anyway, people loved Bella Italia.

We got great publicity in the papers,
we can't pass it off as a loss.

We recorded a loss.
Nina said it wasn't gonna be expensive...

Enough.
Nina can run the club the way she wants.

Oscarshof cannot become competition.
Use it for something else, is that clear?

Why didn't you say anything?
- Like what?

Nina accused me of cooking the books.
You should have said something.

Absolutely... and you should have checked with Calle.

Why didn't you tell me
when you read it this morning?

You didn't read it...
- Not in details.

I can't believe it!

You're also fine with changing the club style, why?

Can we discuss it tonight?

Yes. House with land, 2.500 crowns.
- Christina, your turn.

Norrmalmstorg, the best road.
- You wanna buy it?

How much is it?
- 8.000. You have it.

I'll run the club the way I want.
- Good.

It's all thanks to Bella Italia.

Are you trying to cheat?
- No way!

Why aren't you working tonight?
- I took a night off... to stay with you.

Can we watch the quiz show?

We have no TV.
- Why?

We just don't watch TV.

I miss "Double or Nothing".

I know where we can watch TV.

I'm happy with my new job.
- Do you get paid more?

I don't know,
we haven't talked about it.

You should be making more money.
- Yes... I'll ask Britt Gahn.

So you can get me a new bike.

A producer from Radiotjänst
came with an idea.

A radio show?
- No, TV.

A cooking show.
He'll come by this week and explain.

I don't wanna go on TV.
- Yes, please! - Please!

We'll see.

Look at that crowd!

Give me the umbrella.

Hey, Margareta!
What a strange place to meet.

Christina loves "Double or Nothing".

Who's your favorite?
- Ulf "Hajen" Hannerz.

The guy who knows everything about fish?
- Just aquarium fish, mom.

It's starting!
- Can you see well?

What would you do with 10.000 crowns?
- I guess I'd buy me a TV.

Let me introduce once again Ann-Marie,
our lady of the house...

...and our only judge, Mats Rehnberg.

Gustaf, I haven't seen you in a while.
- I've been home with the flu.

Are you ok?
- I'm fine now.

Bella Italia was a huge success...

...and our Angelo has become a great waiter
in just one week.

Of course I knew he'd do fine
although I was a bit skeptic at first...

Shut up... just shut up.

Three O. P.

You don't need to wait here.

Sorry.

I'll clean it up, you can go.
- Sorry... I wanna help...

You heard me?
Just go.

Be kind and pick this up.

What does Ester know?

Not everything.
- That's good, I'll go back home soon.

Can I come?

Not for long, just a week or two.

You wanna leave her?

I don't know.

I think I do.

You think it'll be good for you,
leaving your family?

Think of all we've been through...
what we've done together.

What I've done to you...
- And still we're here.

It must mean something.

Let me come to Paris
and see how it goes.

Let me come to Paris...
can I come to Paris?

Fine!
You're going to Paris!

In every episode we follow
one particular Chef...

...preparing one of his dishes,
like a welsh flounder for example.

How long is it?
- Half an hour. - Too short.

The flounder needs to stay in the oven
way more than that.

We have dishes ready in different stages.

You put it in the oven
but we have another one already done.

It's gonna be very expensive.
- We won't use pricy stuff.

And the lobster?
- Don't you worry.

I can't have people walking around the kitchen
and I don't have the time...

We're not doing it in your kitchen.

We have a kitchen in the TV studio.
- You'll get the time, Peter knows good publicity.

I'll think about it.
I have to work now.

I'll talk to him, don't worry.
- I'm in your hands.

Mom, good thing you're here.
This is Styrbjörn Hansen, from Radiotjänst.

Helga Löwander.
- Good morning, Mrs. Lowander. You have a beautiful restaurant.

See you soon then.
- Sure.

Radiotjänst wants Calle
to do a TV show.

You'll have to buy a TV.
- No, they're awful and I don't know where to put it.

Mom... you live alone in 250 square meters.
I believe you'll find a place.

Why?
- I don't like it.

You don't?
- No.

Angelo, I can't believe you.
- It's true.

I've seen many waiters in my life
and you have a natural talent for the job.

You thought this through?
- I wanna quit.

But, my boy...

It's like Mozart saying:
"I'm tired of composing immortal masterpieces"!

I wanna go back to wash dishes.
- I don't even wanna hear it!

I'll find another job then.
- But why?? Did something happen?

Did one of the guests say something?
- No, I just wanna quit.

You heard anyone speak ill of Angelo?
- No.

He's determined to quit
but he's so good at it!

Maybe he just don't feel like working.
- If you're that good, it means you love your work.

Angelo is an adult,
he can decide for himself.

Anyway, I convinced him to take
a week off and think about it.

Ethel... I decided to take the secretary job.

Congratulations!

Council secretary!
- Council secretary...

Yes, I came to give my resignation.

Is that all you have to say
to someone who worked here for...?

13 years.
- What should I say?

I don't know... congratulations, for instance.

When will you start?
- Immediately.

Ethel, you'll be glad to lose your staff.
- "The only true joy is someone else's misfortune".

Can't you try not to think only
about yourself some time?

Just to see how it feels.

What are you having?
- How about an appetizer?

We could split one, what do you say?

Good evening.
- Good evening, dear colleague.

I believe it's the last time you're serving us.
- Yes, I just resigned... and it wasn't easy at all.

Don't tell me you're regretting it.
- No but it's gonna be quite a change of life.

Britt is very happy about this.

Come by this Sunday to see the office.
I can show you around a bit.

With pleasure, I'll see you there.
- Then it's settled... and stop being so formal, please.

So... you know what you're gonna eat?

Hi, what are you doing?
- Just checking some invoices.

Shall we go home?
- I gotta finish this first.

I was thinking about the Hofvet.

I don't think we should give it up.

No...
- It did cost us time and money.

We have to let go the band and the staff.

We must talk to Helga again
and convince her it would be a stupid move.

I don't think we should...
- I think so.

Yes?

Director, one guest is asking for you.

Who?
- Åke Hörnberg.

What is this?

One second.

What you're planning to do?
- Ester...

You son of a bitch...
you're planning to leave without saying anything!

I don't care if they all hear me!
- Calm down...

They must know what a pig you are!
Take your tickets and go!

You know what he's doing?!
He's leaving me and his own children!

Let go of me!

Calm down now!
- I am calm.

You wanna leave me?

We'll talk home.
- No.

Yes.
- We talk now. You wanna leave me?

We'll talk later.
- No!

You wanna...
- Yes, I wanna leave you! Will you go home now?

No, I won't.

You can't...

I'll take the girls.
- No, you can't.

I will.
- No.

Please, think it over...
- Go home.

Go, Ester... let go and go home!

I'll take the girls...
I'll save them from your insane family.

Please, go home.
- You all heard him?

Will you go already?!

Yes, I'm going.

What is it, in practice?

You'll be resting in a room at the hospital.
We'll give you something to relax.

We'll attach electrodes to your temples.
You'll have something to bite to avoid hurting your tongue.

Why is that?
- Electricity will cause an epileptic fit.

After that you'll have some rest
and then go home.

Will there be any side effects?
- A temporary loss of memory.

Also headache, but it will pass soon.

I heard about some people
who suffered permanent damage.

Damage has been done in the past
but now the technology has improved.

And you say it works against... perversion?

I've never used shock therapy
to cure homosexuality...

...but your disorder is causing you depression,
social discomfort and excessive libido,

so it'll probably help you in that way.
- When do we start?

Hi, Margareta.
Was it easy to find the place?

Stock up with paper and pens,
ask the keeper for everything.

Ask in advance,
they're very slow.

This is your office.

What do you think?
- Very nice.

This is the mimeograph.
You know how to use it?

I don't think I know
how to use this.

When you are in a hurry,
it's best to do things yourself.

Block this and lift up the lid.

Pull that back and load the paper.
- Like this?

Put that back in place
and close the lid.

Now turn the crank.
Easy, isn't it?

Your first official paper as secretary.
- I haven't started yet.

This is where I work.

Nice... it's clear who's in charge.

How do you call me?
- Social Counselor.

No, we're all very informal here.

Wait... you can't walk around
with blue fingers.

People will think I beat you up.

You often beat up your staff?
- Yes but keep it to yourself.

How often?
Once a week?

Have you heard about my last secretary?
- No.

Good.

I don't know what kind of boss you are.
You might be a monster.

No... I'm no monster.

Hello?

Hi, Arne.
This is Margareta, she'll be working with us.

Ah, welcome!
- Sorry, I have blue fingers...

I see she showed you the mimeograph.
That won't come off easy.

We had a great time at the restaurant.
- Yes, food is great there.

Nice people too.
- Svante is great at cooking...

Gustaf!
It's a scandal!

Peter and Ester...

Ester threw some train tickets in his face!

Right in his face!
Is the Director going to Paris?

I don't know anything...
- He wants to leave her!

What... calm down!

I'll talk to Peter, ok?

I won't be here next Thursday and Friday.

Now?!
- I said next Thursday and Friday.

Hi. I wanted to apologize
for my behavior at the bar.

No problem.

About what happened before...
- Nothing happened.

Yes, it was alcohol's fault...
I'll be treated and it won't happen again.

Roos says you want to quit.
- Yes.

Angelo, you're good...
thorough, quick and guests like you.

It would be a shame if you quit.

Can you move the chair?

Why don't you put it by the window?

No, it's too big.

How about here?

It's just so ugly!
- You wanna cover it with a drape?

I have to hide it somehow.
Why does it have to be so big?

Maybe with some flowers on it.

Thanks, Inger,
that's much better.

Mom, I have to leave for a few weeks.
- Leave? To go where?

To the continent.

Ester and I need to stay
separated for a while.

I heard about the public fight you had.

You looked like
you were made for each other.

Yes, mom... maybe it's not that case.

Who's gonne run things here?

Will you?
- Yes... but I'm a bit surprised.

I had a feeling you and Ester
wanted to get rid of me.

Where will you go?

I'm going to Paris... with Suzanne.

Suzanne Goldstein?
- Yes, we're seeing each other again.

So you're leaving Ester for Suzanne?
- Nothing has been decided yet.

I never thought I would but
I feel sorry for Ester.

Suzanne has always been my true love.

I know that...

...but I'm not sure you two will be happy together.
- I have to try.

This way.
Morning.

Here we are. He is...
- Per Sjöstedt, program manager.

Carl Svensson.
- Nina Löwander.

Considering how much this costs,
let's try to do something good.

Absolutely.
Shall we have a look around?

Is this rehearsal?
- Yes, we'll be on TV next week.

Svensson, you'll be standing here
and looking that way.

The light is strong.
- It's like being on stage,

only in front of thousands of people
from around the country.

Look, Astrid...
- Yes?

I'll be out of town
next Thursday and Friday.

Really?
- It's for the restaurant.

I have work to do
in Malmö and Copenhagen.

Don't worry, there'll be no parties.
- It's not that...

You haven't been well lately.
You're sure you wanna work this much?

Astrid... I'm fine.

Start when you're ready.

Today I'll make a marinara steak...

Sorry, can we start again?
- Cut!

I froze...
- No problem.

Look straight into the camera.
Don't look at the food.

Good.
Let's try again.

Today we'll be making marinara steak...
a classic dish.

We're gonna need meat,
onions, potatoes and spices...

...and we have it all here.

We'll start by slicing the potatoes.

Thanks, let's move on now.

What...
- Move on.

With what?
- The marinara steak.

Sorry, can we...
- Cut!

I'm that bad?
- No.

You just need to relax.

Maybe I'll look for someone else...
- Shame, the boy looked good.

I hoped he did well.
- Let me know when you have another name.

Imagine you're talking to me.
- To you?

We're home in our kitchen
and I'm terrible at cooking.

It's not that hard.

Can you make us a marinara steak
for a special event?

I think I can.
- Don't you need someone classier? An officer or a captain?

No... good food can be appreciated
in a castle just like inside a prison.

As you see,
my husband is not just a chef...

Sigurd Nilsson would be good for the show.
- There's our show.

Those two together are the show.
- You're sure it's the right amount?

You think of something special?
- Maybe I do...

Sorry, we were just talking...
shall I...?

I've seen enough.

Hi.
- Hi.

I didn't think you'd come home.
- I need a few things.

Peter, can we talk?

I'm sorry.
- There's no need...

I was completely inappropriate yesterday.

I've been...

I behaved like a coward.

I'm sorry.

I would have told you about Paris
but you found the tickets first.

You can't leave me.
- Ester...

I can't live without you.

We'll fix everything, we can...

Ester, please...

It's you and me...

I will change,
I'll be a better wife...

I know I can be stubborn...

I know I'm stubborn and vindictive...

We're made for each other...

Stop it...
- It's you and me...

No... sorry...

Good morning.

I have to go
but I'll be back tonight.

We'll go together to the station,
is that ok?

Good morning... 1-0 for me...

It's late, I must go!
- No, stay here!

My dear!

Löwander.
- It's me.

Hi, are you back?
- No, I'm in Alvesta. The train stopped.

What happened?
You'll be late?

I don't know.

What are you doing today?

I'm seeing Caroline at the Red Cross.
Fore the autumn market.

Did something happen?

Are you alright?

I don't know.
- Tell me, darling...

I just wanted to hear your voice...
you know I love you.

Where are you?
Come back, I'm not liking this.

We'll talk later. I have to go.
- Gustaf?

Roos, you know where Gustaf is?
- I just know he had to leave for two days...

Did he say where?
- I believe it was about work...

Rosersberg hospital.
- Good morning, is Gustaf Löwander there?

Who's asking?
- His wife, Astrid Löwander.

One moment.

Mr. Löwander,
here's your tranquilizer.

Mr. Löwander has his treatment today.

What kind of treatment?
- I can't discuss that.

I want you to stop.
- We can't do this by telephone.

I wanna speak to von Essen.

Mr. Löwander, how you're feeling?
- Fine.

Please, lay on the bed.

Doctor, you have a moment?
It's important.

It'll have to wait.
- Yes, doctor.

The doctor is busy.
Would you like to leave a message?

Gustaf!

Gustaf!

What have you done?
- Nothing, Mrs. Löwander. He's just sedated.

Mrs. Löwander...
- Stop now!

Mrs. Löwander, your husband
wants to get better...

I know Gustaf better than you.
I want my man the way he is.

As you wish.
- Gustaf, darling...

7... 6... 5... 4...

3... 2... 1...
- Welcome to "My husband, the Master Chef".

Look at them!
- Chef of one of Stockholm's most famous restaurants.

Welcome.
- Thank you.

Carl is also my husband
so the program's title is most appropriate.

I guess so.
- How fun they are!

What will you teach us today?
- It's autumn so how about "lox in the brine"?

Salmon then! Great!
- I'll show you hot to clean and fix the salmon.

But Nina never liked that!

Don't you buy it already fixed?
- It's not that hard, every housewife can do it herself.

I never thought of that!
- She never cleaned one fish in her life!

We'll start to cut from here.
- Watch your fingers, you only have 10.

She sounds so stupid!
Why don't she act normally?

Have a nice evening.

They looked happy.

They left... 5 and 40 crowns for one drink!

You regret quitting now?
- No.

Roos, I'm going home.
- Ok.

This was my last day here, so...
- Is it? So...?

I wanted to thank you, Roos,
for all these years together around the tables.

Thank you.

You taught me everything about waiting tables,
you've been nice and fair.

Yes... before you leave,
can you bring out some cloths?

Bring them to the ballroom
so it'll be ready for tomorrow.

Of course.
- Thanks.

You didn't think you could just leave like that?

How did you keep this secret?
- We'd never done it without Roos.

You trickster!

Margareta, to commemorate the years we spent together,
we'd like to give you this.

It's a pamphlet Margareta
was giving away in 1946...

...to invite the staff
to join the union.

Thanks to your dedication,
we could become a better restaurant.

Thank you for that.
- Thanks, Director.

To Margareta!

When will you start at Town Hall?
- Next Thursday.

Will you come back and visit?
- Yes.

You don't sound convincing.

Already sick of our food?
- Stop it... you know it...

I don't wanna be served by my ex-colleagues.
- Ah... Bellan...

Bellan serving me... I could never!
- You must come some time... I'll miss you.

I swore I wouldn't...
- Ethel...

I'll miss you too.

Who am I gonna chat with now?
- I'll come around often and we'll talk.

You promise?
- Yes.

You still got everyone else.
- But you're special.

Don't you think you should
say something to them?

No, this is Maggan's night.
Tomorrow I'll talk to the staff.

Will you leave me your address?
- I'll call from Paris. You'll be perfectly fine.

This is for daddy.
