I've been naïve. 608 01:05:53,584 --> 01:05:59,167 In my primitive lawyer's imagination I thought that maybe - 609 01:05:59,542 --> 01:06:05,417 - when things were different, if they were to become different... 610 01:06:07,209 --> 01:06:10,251 Under different circumstances... 611 01:06:12,751 --> 01:06:16,792 Forgive me my improper thoughts. 612 01:06:17,167 --> 01:06:19,751 Let me at least help you at a distance. 613 01:06:20,126 --> 01:06:23,042 Let's be sensible. You're going away. 614 01:06:23,417 --> 01:06:26,834 Someone has to take care of Søren's, yours and Vibeke's interests. 615 01:06:27,209 --> 01:06:30,834 - Let me at least help you with that. - And talk some sense into Søren. 616 01:06:31,209 --> 01:06:33,751 The law is on his side. 617 01:06:34,126 --> 01:06:38,334 Your position is weak... In the eyes of the law. 618 01:06:38,709 --> 01:06:43,251 - No child can live in a loveless home. - The law doesn't understand that. 619 01:06:45,834 --> 01:06:48,292 Do something, Lachmann. 620 01:06:48,667 --> 01:06:50,459 Do something. 621 01:06:50,834 --> 01:06:54,084 Vibs can't live alone with her sick father. 622 01:06:54,459 --> 01:06:58,667 During his bad spells... He loses control. 623 01:06:59,042 --> 01:07:00,876 Help me. 624 01:07:02,334 --> 01:07:06,459 I could ask the district doctor in Skagen, an old friend - 625 01:07:06,834 --> 01:07:12,126 - to keep an eye on Søren and call me, if he suffers a relapse. 626 01:07:12,501 --> 01:07:16,542 Then I could ask the authorities to remove the child. 627 01:07:19,876 --> 01:07:25,709 But such a measure requires you to give me a power of attorney. 628 01:07:26,751 --> 01:07:31,251 - A power of attorney? - Yes. Make me her guardian. 629 01:07:33,251 --> 01:07:39,209 - Is that the only way you can help? - I see no other. 630 01:07:42,001 --> 01:07:45,667 Very well. Draw up a power of attorney for Vibeke's sake. 631 01:07:46,042 --> 01:07:49,876 I'll have my head clerk do it right away. 632 01:07:51,126 --> 01:07:56,209 - I could do with a brandy now. - I'm sorry. How selfish of me. 633 01:08:07,209 --> 01:08:10,751 Excuse me one moment, Mrs. Krøyer. 634 01:08:15,876 --> 01:08:20,209 Marie, is that you?

It almost makes me jealous. 639 01:08:37,751 --> 01:08:42,334 She's fond of you too. She's confused, that's all. 640 01:08:43,417 --> 01:08:48,042 Hugo and I have to leave. There is no other option. 641 01:08:48,417 --> 01:08:51,917 The sight of us torments Søren, and I don't blame him. 642 01:08:52,292 --> 01:08:55,626 But it doesn't change how I feel. Not anymore. 643 01:08:56,001 --> 01:08:58,251 Do you understand, Henny? 644 01:08:59,376 --> 01:09:03,917 - I think so. - Søren needs security.

Not a bad bone in your body. 646 01:09:09,376 --> 01:09:14,001 - I say that in admiration. - What do you want to ask of me? 647 01:09:14,376 --> 01:09:19,042 The law forbids me to take Vibs with me. 648 01:09:19,417 --> 01:09:23,626 I don't think I can live without her. 649 01:09:24,001 --> 01:09:27,459 Will you take care of Vibs while I'm gone? 650 01:09:28,959 --> 01:09:32,917 - Oh, dear God. - Why are you crying? 651 01:09:33,292 --> 01:09:38,417 I've always wanted a child.
