Fredrik Egerman in love,
I can't believe it!
:25:05
You get funny ideas
as the years go by.
:25:07
Those that are called
gentleness, consideration...
:25:13
...love.
:25:16
A remarkable girl -
:25:18
- who has made you suffer from
something other than toothaches.
:25:24
When I come home, she runs to greet
me because she is happy I'm back.
:25:30
She is headstrong like a spoilt child.
:25:35
She is hot-tempered
and gets violently angry.
:25:38
She is so vivacious that my house is
subsiding and the walls are cracking.
:25:43
She is tender and loving.
:25:47
She likes my smoking a pipe.
:25:49
She likes me... as if I were her father.
:25:55
Dear God!
:25:56
I'm a grown man. All too often
the goat rears his head and brays.
:26:02
One is sorry and angry,
that was not the plan.
:26:07
What do you want from me?
:26:09
I want you to tell me Anne
is a hopeless case.
:26:12
- Or the opposite... Or whatever!
- How could l? I don't know her.
:26:18
You have to help me, Desiree.
For old friendship's sake.
:26:23
And what a fine reason too...
:26:26
Our superb trysts aside,
you are my only friend.
:26:30
The only person to whom
I can show myself, warts and all.
:26:37
And what do I get in return?
:26:40
- I have a young son, take him.
- Shame on you!
:26:44
- A mount, a noble steed?
- Not enough.
:26:48
- A string of pearls?
- I have enough of them.
:26:52
You will be rewarded in heaven.
:26:58
Oh no, Fredrik Egerman...!
I want my reward in this life.
