Based on stories from four men in Oslo's finance sector today,

and stories from women, other finance players, experts and the police

- Come on. - What?

- We have to get up. - Why?

- We need to water the plants. - What plants?

You'll see. Come on, Nicole.

My name is Kim.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

- You're a strange man. - You don't know the half of it.

You've lost your mind.

Is something wrong?

No.

Go back to sleep.

Good morning.

- Everything okay? - All good.

Are you the one who understands Norwegian, or is that the other one?

It's me.

Can you wake the children?

Mong wakes them, I make the lunches.

Mong?

- Mong. - Mong.

Right.

- Hello. - Hi.

Hi?

I've been trying to call you.

I noticed.

You haven't returned my calls.

That's right.

- Don't you want to talk to me? - I'm talking to you now.

- What do you want? - What I want?

I want us to talk about this.

- We need to get together. - I see.

- Dammit! - I have no need for that.

I'm picking the boys up at school today,

and bringing them back here for a healthier environment.

You can pick up your things from storage.

In a few days, you'll hear from my lawyer.

Read his letter, and then we'll draw up an agreement.

Let's say you get visitation rights

once a month.

If you stay away from those pills.

We'll test your urine. I know all about that.

You can't take care of the boys. You work all the time.

I don't think I can do much worse than you.

I've hired Pim back. It'll be great.

Whatever.

- I'm not interested in an agreement. - That's how the world works.

For a good deal, you need leverage.

I have something you want. Money. And to a certain extent the kids.

What do you have that I want?

I don't know.

No.

I don't either.

Excellent.

- Hi, good morning. - Good morning.

Do you want this?

Melt it or sell it or whatever.

I don't know.

Otherwise I'll just throw it away.

Take it.

Thank you. Great.

I'll sit here a while before I come in.

You have reached Hermine Veile. Please leave a message.

Hi, it's me. Listen, I talked to Henrik.

I'm so sorry.

I really didn't want that to happen.

But you asked him for money. That was a bit inappropriate.

You and I need to renegotiate our deal.

There's no child anymore.

Anyway, take care.

This is Henrik Krantz. Do you have the test results?

I'm not at the office yet,

but I haven't seen any emails.

Okay, thanks. Bye.

Heard you spoke to Adam. Just checked my account.

Do you have a few minutes?

Adam: At the boat in 15.

- Do you have a beer? - You bet.

Sorry, it's been a while.

- You don't use this boat much. - Not anymore.

Why don't you sell it?

I'm sailing it to the Mediterranean with the cash.

- From the aunts? - The aunts. You can come if you want.

I don't think I can keep this up.

I called Hermine and stopped her payments.

- She'll come around once she's broke. - Maybe.

I can fix this.

She'll just ask for more.

It could have been hundreds of other women.

You know that Tomine,

dumb as she is, actually loves me?

I was six weeks in lockdown with her and the kids.

It was... I was this close to killing myself.

I can't take it. It's the last place I want to be.

What else is new? That describes the last eight years of your life.

You've always been sick of your wife.

You agreed to buy a new house because she thought it would help.

What did that cost you? 20 million?

20 million.

You've been fed up for ages, why this now?

Because I fucked a girl in a shed in Mozambique.

What's so funny?

Listen to yourself: "I fucked a girl in a shed in Mozambique."

- Why should you be to blame? - What?

Why is it all your fault?

Everyone would agree this is my fault.

There are two people in a relationship.

Why do you act the way you do?

Because you need affirmation, like everyone else.

That's her job. You're supposed to make each other bigger and better

than you are separately.

Like me, you weren't the most popular guy in class.

You were better with numbers than people.

Now you can have whoever you want.

Because you look okay, but mostly because you're rich.

She doesn't give you the affirmation you need.

Why should you feel guilty because you are who you are?

I know who I am.

But I've had enough. I'm done with this.

- You have separate property? - And a prenup.

There's your answer.

Maybe, but I have to find a way to end it so she won't miss me.

That's such a turn-off. She'll probably call 50 times a day, crying.

Like that will bring me back.

And I can't pull a Phil Spector. That didn't work.

- Want to talk business? - Please.

It's time to sell the first round of options.

Collect, and buy more.

Perfect. Are you dancing?

We're ready to push the button on our end.

Hi, Celine.

Hi!

- You okay? - Sure.

Can I feel?

I'd rather not.

I can't get used to people touching my stomach all the time.

I felt the same.

I hated it.

How are you doing?

Fine.

I mean...

It's a shock, of course.

But I'm doing fine.

You were together a long time.

Since I was 24.

I was an interior decorator. Had my own company.

Imagine that.

In the beginning, I remember

he would post lots of pictures of us.

Tagged them with:

"Luckiest man in the world."

"Punching above my league."

And I was.

He was a virgin till he was over 20.

Then I got pregnant, and he didn't want us both to work

since we were going to be parents.

And then...

Your body changes after you give birth.

And then we had another baby.

And I got used to staying at home.

And the money

kept coming from him.

Do you know what he gave me for my 30th birthday?

A personal trainer that came to the house every day.

I was thrilled.

Do you understand?

Then he gave me botox for Christmas.

Since I was depressed at times,

he recommended his own doctor.

So I started taking some pills, just to feel better.

He got his trophy wife, and ten years later he...

And I'm just a regular

36-year-old with two kids.

Or, three now.

I was supposed to get part of what he built.

You have something, don't you? Half the house?

No, it's all on him.

Can't you

sue him?

I can't put the kids through that. It would be so ugly.

All his whores and cocaine, and all my pills.

I'm closer to 40 than 30.

Who would want me now?

I don't have any money. My kids will have to wear run-of-the-mill clothes!

I'm sorry.

You didn't come here to listen to my complaints.

How are you doing?

Fine.

I'm fine.

Have you ever considered a boob job?

A boob job?

No, not really.

Why not?

I've never felt the need.

Right.

You'll consider it once you're done breastfeeding.

- Veile.

- You were always on my mind. - What the hell was that?

- It's a classic. Pet Shop Boys. - Yeah, but why?

Because this is a joyous day.

I shorted the Nissan stock two weeks ago,

and today they had to lay off 10,000 workers.

Can you imagine what happened to the stock price?

I just got promoted. So tell me!

Tell me that your sweet love hasn't died.

I just got the word, it's moving forward.

Time to sell off the first wave and reinvest.

Darling, I love it when you talk like that.

Talk to you soon.

Thank you.

I talked to mom.

She was busy this week.

But she'd love to meet you.

You sure?

I don't want to intrude.

She was very happy when I asked.

She just said that to make you happy.

She suggested Ekeberg Restaurant next week.

I can pick you up.

- I just have to get a little better. - Listen.

I'll take care of it. I'll pick you up. You'll feel better.

The head is willing, but not the body.

- Are you sure she wasn't angry? - Yes.

She said she wanted to see you.

Why should she be angry?

Because she usually is when it comes to me.

Why did you leave?

- You know. - No, I don't know.

I was 13.

Mom never told me anything.

Why?

I saw a documentary the other day.

About dying people.

An Australian nurse had talked to a number of people for years.

Do you know what their biggest regret was?

"I wish I'd had the courage

to live a life true to myself."

"And not the one others expected of me."

That's what most of them said.

But I regret nothing. Nothing!

I haven't treated other people very nice.

But I have done my best.

- I have to go. - Do you have any tips?

Aren't you done with stocks?

It's just a hobby. Do you have any tips? Any movement?

I'll know more next week. I'll get back to you then.

That's my boy!

You're going to be richer than me.

Excellent!

Bye.

- Dr. Køhn. - It's Henrik again.

Any word on those tests?

- No, but I can try to call them. - Thanks.

Fuck it!

Hello?

I know you've stopped drinking, but do you want to watch me drink?

That's very tempting, but we're staying in tonight.

- Faggot. - Whatever. Bye.

Hello!

What's that noise?

- It helps when I'm angry. - Why are you angry?

Family, parents, boredom, loneliness. Everything sucks. And God!

- You don't believe in God. - And that makes me angrier.

Otherwise things would make sense.

- Drink? - Love to!

- I'm on my way to String. - Whores!

Kristin, I'll be gone the rest of the day.

- Good evening. Go on in. - Thank you.

- Hello. - Hi.

- How thoughtful of you. - Of course.

- Hi, welcome. - Thank you.

She's good. How are you doing?

Not so good. I can't go home.

It feels like I have poison in my veins.

You're going to lose all your teeth.

- Perfect for blowing you. - This is so nice!

- She's boring. - You think so?

We're supposed to want to fuck her.

- I want to fuck her. - You want to fuck her?

If I was that bad at my job, I'd be living on the east side.

- I'd still fuck you. - Would you blow me too?

If the penis is pretty.

- Cheers! - You're empty.

Then I'll refill.

Put everything they have in a bucket, with a funnel.

I don't believe in God.

But that doesn't mean I don't respect religion as a brand.

That's what they all are.

I'm not impressed that they can convince people God exists.

But why can't we make fun of those who believe?

Don't you agree? Submitting to some sacred force

that requires obedience, sees everything you do

and forces its way into your mind, it's Orwellian!

You might as well worship a pack of mayo or a cold beer.

Religion is the world's best brand.

Create a need that isn't there, sell something that doesn't exist.

Sorry, I have to take this.

- Hello? - It's Dr. Køhn.

The test results are back.

Hello?

Are you there?

You're fine.

- Are you sure? - That's what the tests are for.

- You're perfectly healthy. - Thank you.

What's up?

Everything and nothing.

More champagne.

Another champagne!

- That's not allowed. - I know, I'm sorry.

Is it okay now?

I'm so tired of looking at her. We have to teach her to dance.

Excuse me, just leave the stage.

- I'm Norwegian. - You don't know how to dance.

You should dance in a way

that makes people want to fuck the dancer.

Want to fuck.

So what you have to do, is want to

fuck whoever's dancing!

God, what a talent!

- More champagne! - I'm not sick.

Seriously?

You always get away with it.

He dodged the bullet again. Damn!

Time to sleep.

Yeah.

Just close your eyes.

That's good.

Hi, perfect timing.

I...

I have to go out.

So I thought, why don't you girls

take the night off and enjoy?

Let this breathe for 30 minutes. It's best at 17 degrees.

Just enjoy yourselves. Feel free.

I'm changing the narrative in my life.

I bid you goodbye.

Right now.

- Hello? - Hi, it's me.

It's been a while. I need some company.

Up to the top floor.

- Hermine? - Yes.

An enemy of William's is a friend of mine.

- Did you have a nice trip? - Absolutely.

Come on.

Come.

No, don't stop. I'll pay you double.

Are you awake?

What are you doing?

This is Magdalena. Magdalena, this is Tomine.

She only understands English.

Fuck! Get out of my house, you fucking whore!

The only difference between me and you is the fucking house you live in.

Just leave!

Bar.

Close.

Going anywhere special?

I'll pay you 10,000 if you spend the rest of the night with me.

Why?

Because I'm not sure how I'm going to react.

I'd rather not be alone right now.

My plan sort of ends here.

You planned this?

Yeah.
