[“Nowhere to Run” by Martha Reeves and the Vandellas playing]

♪ Nowhere to run to, baby ♪

♪ Nowhere to hide ♪

♪ Got nowhere to run to, baby ♪

♪ Nowhere to hide ♪

♪ It’s not love I’m running from ♪

♪ Just the heartbreak I know will come ♪

♪ ‘Cause I know you’re no good for me ♪

♪ You’re no good ♪

♪ But you’ve become a part of me… ♪

All good?

[woman] Get this dry-cleaned ASAP.

Okay. On it.

Thanks.

Yep.

[woman] Hi, welcome.

Thanks so much for coming.

Thanks.

Let me see, let me see.

Hi. Yeah.

You got it! Great work!

Thanks.

Look at you.

[“Nowhere to Run” continues]

Remove half of them. No sunflowers.

Divide them among the tables. Thanks.

The kitchen’s ready for you.

Mm, thanks.

♪ Each night as I sleep ♪

♪ Into my heart you creep ♪

[man] Hmm?

Thank you Great job!

Thanks.

Thanks!

There’s an issue with the sprinklers, but the technician’s coming to take care of it.

When’s he coming?

Five minutes.

We’ll roll out the awnings.

[woman] Great.

[man] You’ve got this. Great.

I know.

[woman] It looks great.

Yeah.

The color looks really good.

Is that one crooked?

The big one?

[woman] Yeah.

[laughs] I don’t think so.

Listen, everything’s great.

This opening’s going to be perfect.

Oh, and there’s the boss.

Yep.

Get this washed off before the VIPs arrive.

[man] Yes. I’ll get it done.

[“Nowhere to Run” ends]

[sighs] I’m trying to quit smoking.

Sit down.

But they’ll be here soon.

The guests arrive in ten minutes.

We’ve put up a selfie wall.

That’ll keep ’em busy. Sit down.

Yep.

Listen, honey, I wanna talk to you.

As you know, so far we’ve just bought rundown buildings and renovated them, slapped our logo on it, that’s it.

Pretty easy, right? I love it.

But you’ve always wanted to build something from scratch.

Mmm.

Weltzer’s on board.

And of course, I have found a fantastic spot.

The place is in…

Málaga. [chuckles] Málaga?

Yeah.

I have found a former mango farm that’s owned by some Danish guy.

But he can’t pay his bills anymore.

The neighbors tried to get him to sell it for the last five years, but he wouldn’t do it.

This is where you come in.

I want you to go there… [knocks] Get close to him, and persuade him to sell the place.

Can’t someone else do that?

Mmm. But I want you to do it.

It’s your big dream.

This is your chance.

Also, I want a seat on the Board.

Two birds with one stone.

When?

Um, now. [chuckles] What do you mean “now”?

Now now.

But you know I can’t.

I’m going on vacation with Agnes.

Okay, so take her with you.

Yeah…

Stay an extra week.

I promised her Bornholm.

[chuckles] Oh, you’re being serious?

Okay. It’s just, Bornholm?

Yes, she loves Bornholm. Okay?

I… I said I would.

Well…

But I’ll go after.

No.

Please do it now.

[dramatic music playing]

Our last vacation was years ago.

If I bail on Agnes again, she’ll…

I want a seat on the Board.

And the Election’s in two weeks, so it has to be done now.

And Bornholm isn’t going anywhere. Sadly.

So you’ll go down there, you’ll soak it all in, and do what you’re best, right?

Okay?

Check out the location, come up with a great concept, and build the most incredible hotel Weltzer has ever put their name on.

It’s what you’ve always wanted, Lærke.

[thunder rumbling] [raindrops pattering] [man] Fuck, this weather sucks!

Hi.

Mmm, how nice. Thank you.

So, uh…

You… You can’t be serious!

[sighs] Is she upset?

You can’t be changing the plan like this.

She was looking forward to going on an actual vacation with you. I just…

But it’ll still be a vacation.

I know, but that’s not really what you’re gonna do there, right?

You’ll be working.

When were you gonna tell her?

You know Joan. I didn’t really have a choice. You know her.

Yeah.

And how is Vivi?

Well, I need to tell you something about Vivi.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Is she dead? Aw, she’s dead, and now you want me back.

[chuckles]

No. We’re pregnant.

She’s pregnant.

We… We’re pregnant.

I’m going to be a dad again.

With Vivi. Yeah.

Yeah, it’s tough, but it’s also, you know…

What can you do, you know?

When your partner’s someone younger.

Or… Not that kind of young. I just meant…

You can stop now.

You don’t need to know.

No.

No.

Is she coming or what?

Yeah. I…

I need to tell you that she…

[clears throat]

She didn’t get in to architecture school.

Yeah, unfortunately.

Admissions aren’t due till August.

No.

They start in August, but she got the letter two days ago, so…

Oh, fuck. She should have called me.

Mmm… She should’ve called?

[groans] God, I should’ve called her.

Fuck, I should’ve called.

But you were working.

I’m such an idiot.

A little, yeah.

Don’t worry about it.

Just remember when you get down there and want to treat her, ’cause you’re an idiot, sort of, and you work a lot, so you want to pamper her, just know…

[door slams]

Listen up.

This is important.

No matter what, do not let her drive.

You mean it?

Hey. Stop it. Don’t… Hi, sweetheart.

[Lærke] Hi, sweetheart.

Well, you two have a nice trip, okay?

[Lærke] Right.

Tom, we’ll be fine. Promise.

Say hi to Vivi.

Yeah.

[gentle music playing]

There. Bye.

I mean, have a nice trip.

[Agnes] Love you.

Hi, love.

“Hi, Mom.” Hi, sweetheart.

The airport, please.

[driver] You got it.

[gentle music continues]

Your father told me about architecture school. I’m sorry.

But you know you can reapply and try again.

I don’t wanna talk about it.

I thought you didn’t find out about admissions until August.

You really should have called me.

[baby cries]

Is this how we’ll spend our vacation?

It’s insane.

You’re not on vacation. I’m not an idiot!

[woman] Excuse me?

But you…

Um, excuse me, this is, um, my son, Elton, and he’s been really excited to see the airplane take off.

It’s just I’m in the aisle.

You should make a complaint if you booked the window.

No, no. We didn’t book the window, we were just given random seats.

Oh, that’s too bad, I guess.

Yeah. So, um, I was hoping you might like to swap.

Would you? [chuckles] Mmm… No, thanks.

We’re good.

Okay…

[scoffs]

Elton is only three years old, and visiting his dad in Spain.

It’s his first time flying, so he’s just little nervous.

I know, but we’ve booked these seats.

Again, we’re not gonna move.

We’ve paid for the seats.

I don’t care.

[Lærke] No, you do care. Stay there.

I’m sorry, no. I paid for these.

[mom] Don’t be sad, sweetie, okay?

Well, it might do him good to be told no once in a while.

Dude, you gotta stop.

[man] You can have my seat.

Are you sure?

Go ahead.

[mom] Ah! Thank you so much!

[man] All good.

So nice of you.

Now all the kids get their way.

There.

[mom laughs] Exactly. Thanks!

[man] No worries.

[mom] Say thank you to the nice man.

Can you believe her?

You are so fucking annoying.

What, me?

She should’ve booked her…

Are you joking?

You didn’t have to do that.

It wasn’t my fault.

Yeah.

It’s not my fault that…

Shh!

[“Curu Curu” playing]

She could’ve booked…

If you do that again, I swear, I…

She could’ve booked her own.

Yes, turn the iPad all the way up.

[song continues]

[song continues over headphones]

Shall we get something to eat once we get to the house?

And have a glass of wine?

What is this place?

I believe it’s some sort of a finca.

It’s a… Yep.

It’s Spanish. Yep.

I know what a finca is.

Well, the man who owns the finca is this Danish guy, and Joan arranged for us to stay there.

Did she hook up with him?

Oh, yeah. I’d say they’ve boned.

[scoffs] Ugh!

What?

Don’t say “boned.”

It’s not my fault that they’ve boned.

[Agnes sighs]

I bet they’re…

Just boning… a lot.

Lots of boning down there, you know?

It’s not my fault.

I didn’t tell them to bone so much.

Yet they keep doing it. They love to bone.

And they bone down at this place nonstop.

[“A Buena Vista” by Soneros De Verdad playing]

You don’t like the word “boning,” do you?

Boning here, boning there.

[Agnes] Stop!

Boning in the kitchen… Oh, that’s gross!

[“A Buena Vista” continues]

[Agnes] What’s the plan?

Stopping here to see something.

There we go.

That must be it.

[Agnes sighs]

What the hell is this?

[gentle music playing]

That’s this…

[sighs] Okay.

Uh… Would you like to join me?

I’m staying.

Yep. I’ll be back.

[gentle music continues]

Fuck, it’s hot up here.

[crickets chirping]

[birds chirping]

[gentle music continues]

[engine roaring in the distance]

[Lærke] Hi!

[man] Hi.

[Lærke] What are you doing here?

What am I doing here?

Well, this is my place, so…

You own it?

Yeah.

Okay.

Uh… I was told that this used to be a mango farm.

[man] Plantation.

Right. Okay.

It’s our orchard and we’re open for business.

Right.

Yeah.

So, what can I do for you?

[Lærke exhales]

It’s boiling up here, oh my God, fuck.

Yeah.

I could do with a cold drink, if you don’t mind.

Sure. Uh, you can wait on the sofa.

I’ll bring it.

Yeah.

When it’s your turn. [chuckles] Yeah, there.

Okay. Thanks.

[mouthing] Okay.

There you go.

Okay. Wow.

What?

I’ve honestly never seen this many mango options.

It’s a mango plantation.

And there’s a mangonadade.

[laughs] It’s called a mangonade.

Mangonade.

The same as lemonade.

But with mangoes instead of lemons.

A mangonade?

You wanna try, or…?

Yes!

It looks… Better try some of it.

Thanks.

“Mangonade”?

What’s strange about it?

Right. Okay.

Is there Wi-Fi?

Yeah. We even have 6G up here.

I guess there isn’t.

Forget about it. [scoffs]

[gentle music playing]

[workers chatting in Spanish]

Oh, hola!

[speaking Spanish]

[in English] Uh, sorry. Do you know if there’s any signal around here?

[sighs] The reception is awful around here.

We have a phone at the shop if it’s important.

Or if it’s only a little bit important, you can use mine.

What’s “a little bit important”?

You know, if someone wrote you something really shitty, and you have to write something shitty back before too much time passes.

You know, it’s not life or death, but it’s not fun.

Okay. [chuckles] I’m Paula.

Agnes.

What are you doing here?

Um, I don’t really know to be honest.

My mom is somewhere around.

Yeah.

[Paula] Okay…

Um, if you want to kill some time, I was going to the south to check the mangos.

Wanna join?

Um…

[gentle music playing]

Sure.

[chuckles] Come on.

Where are you from?

Uh, Denmark.

Oh, Alex is from Denmark.

Get in.

Who’s Alex?

[Paula] Uh, he used to be married to my sister, so…

[Agnes] Oh. Nice.

[engine starts]

[Lærke] Thanks.

Yeah.

Mmm.

Hmm.

Hmm?

Yeah.

It’s just funny because it’s sort of way too sweet and incredibly sticky, and the glass is, uh…

Well, it’s an absolute disaster, and yet, uh, and yet it works.

It works. I’m impressed.

Wow. Okay.

What?

I don’t think I’ve ever heard such a nice compliment… Was it one?

Yes, it was a compliment.

It was.

And at the same time being so…

Incredibly rude.

But wouldn’t you say a compliment’s always nice?

Is it?

I think it is.

[Alex] Hmm.

You’re cross-eyed.

What was that?

[Alex sighs] What?

Your eyes are… crossed.

[scoffing] Uh, no, they’re not.

By the way, how dare you?

Yeah, it’s really charming.

It’s a compliment. [chuckles] Okay.

Hilarious. Really funny.

[Alex chuckles] Mmm. [swallows] God.

You’re from Weltzer, right?

Yeah.

So… [exhales] You’ve come a long way for nothing, then.

I’ve already made it clear that I’m not selling.

So, you should go back and sell some more waterfront houses.

Mmm. That’s not why I’m here.

You look like real estate. Sorry.

Okay.

[Alex sighs]

You’re not very nice. Not nice at all.

Yeah. Seven.

Seven?

Seven euros for the mangonade.

Oh, sure. Fine.

Ooh, we only accept cash.

Pretty amazing you don’t have more customers coming in with your exceptional service skills.

We do fine. We can’t give change. Sorry.

Please, you’re kidding.

But you can find something you’d like in our mango shop.

No, thanks.

Mango juice?

No, I can’t do more mango.

I’ve had quite enough.

Dried mango?

Definitely not.

Mango marmalade?

You know what?

Mango vinegar?

It’s not working. Your mangonade.

And it’s a horrible name.

Mango oil?

No, thank you.

[gentle music playing]

Mango chutney?

Thanks, but no, thanks.

Delicious.

[gentle music continues]

Agnes?

[wind whooshing]

[Alex] Oh my God. Seriously?

Now what?

Hey.

Uh, my daughter wasn’t in the car, and I can’t reach her.

There’s no signal here.

Your daughter?

Yeah.

From the plane?

Yeah, that’s her.

She’s a big girl.

Yeah, but you know…

Probably just went for a walk.

Where the hell would she go?

[both sigh]

[Lærke] Shit.

[radio beeps] Paula?

Paula, are you there?

Who’s that?

This is Paula.

Did you take a girl with you?

Yes. And you have to say “over” when you’re done speaking.

Over.

Could you please bring her back before her mother kills me?

No problem at all, boss.

We’ll be back there in five.

Got it.

What happened?

It’s all fine.

She’s gone for a drive with Paula.

And who’s Paula?

Paula is family. It’s fine.

They’re on their way back.

[scoffs]

[mysterious music playing]

Is the fancy coffee only for the fancy guests?

Well, this thing hasn’t worked for years.

Thanks.

Don’t take it personally, but we just don’t need another…

Huge ugly hotel here.

Well, lucky for you, our hotels aren’t ugly.

We have awesome taste.

Hmm.

Jesus, you really do have shitty signal up here, huh?

Yeah. And we have no running water at night from 11:00 p.m. to 7:00 in the morning.

Pretty inconvenient, when you have trees to water.

Yeah. But fortunately, all your friends who already have hotels by the water have water. 247.

For their pools.

Got it.

And Jacuzzis.

Oh! I hear my daughter.

Fountains. You know?

Thanks for the coffee.

Hey! Where the hell where you?

[Agnes] Went for a ride.

[Lærke] Went for a ride?

You should’ve told me!

You think it’s funny?

[Agnes] You’re suddenly acting like a mom? That’s funny.

What is this?

What do you mean?

[Lærke] You can’t go off with…

They’re here to buy this place from us.

Bro, you always assume the worst.

Mmm. It’s the truth.

Hmm.

[Agnes sighs]

Is this how it’s gonna be?

That I need to worry about where you are?

That’s entirely your choice.

Is it because we’re not in Bornholm?

Are you punishing me because of that?

You could just drive to the airport, and I’ll leave if you like.

[sighs] Why are you such a damn child?

Oh my God.

Don’t think about it.

Just sit back.

[Lærke] Know how many stairs they have in Bornholm?

[cell phone continues ringing]

[sighs]

Hi Joan.

I thought you quit?

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, sure.

What do you think of the place?

Well, the farm is still running.

What do you mean?

Well, you know, it’s…

A mango farm or a mango plantation, I believe he calls it.

We’ll tear it down, whatever.

Yep.

They have water and electricity, right?

How’s the internet?

Um, uh, that’s… It’s nonexistent really, but that’s just practicalities, honestly.

We’ll sort it out.

The problem’s the owner. He’s a pain to deal with, and refuses to sell it.

Eye on the prize, Lærke.

Get close to him and win him over.

That’s what you’re best at.

I don’t think it’ll move as fast as you’d like.

This guy’s extremely stubborn…

Are you with me or not?

We have a plan, right?

Of course.

The board meeting’s in 12 days.

You’ll figure something out, I know you will.

I will.

[man] Joan, let’s go.

I gotta go. Just call me if you need anything, okay?

Yep. Bye.

I believe in you. See ya.

[plane engine droning]

[Alex speaking Spanish]

Hasta luego.

[man] Hasta luego.

[in English] Are you serious?

Hey, beautiful. What?

What the hell, bro?

Sorry, but we need the money.

Yeah, fine, but we also need the mangoes.

Yeah, I know, but I already spoke to Hernando and it’s fine.

We can use some of his coaches for the harvest. Okay?

[sighs] What?

I don’t know.

I just always feel like I’m constantly struggling to swim against the current.

Don’t you get tired of…

I don’t know, going and going nowhere?

Tell me then…

[mutters]

Where are you going? Hmm?

[chuckles] I’m just gonna show that Danish girl around.

Bro!

Bro, what?

We can’t trust these ladies.

Comprende?

You aren’t trustworthy.

Me?

[Paula] Yes, you!

[Alex] Me?

[Paula] Nice shirt, by the way.

Thank you, sweetie.

[laughs] Have fun.

[chuckles]

[pensive music playing]

[car engine starts]

[sighs]

Crosseyed.

[scoffs]

[upbeat music playing]

[Alex softly] Shit!

Jesus Christ.

[Lærke] Hey.

[Alex] Hey.

Who was that?

That was Carlos and Dimitri.

They own that hotel up there.

Nice shirt. What did they want?

What’d they want?

Mmhmm.

The same thing as you.

They’ve tried for the past five years to buy.

Would you show me around?

You want me to show you around?

No, I don’t have time.

We need to start harvesting.

Why were you in Copenhagen?

I already told you.

Yeah, right.

No one travels four hours somewhere to turn down an offer.

Why’d you go?

Okay.

I had a meeting with the bank about a loan extension.

Did they grant it?

No.

What do you owe?

We need to bring the harvest in.

I don’t get you.

[sighs]

I won’t sell to you.

Okay? I already told you.

What’s your plan then?

I’ll figure something out.

You sure about that?

You think it’s a gold mine here.

You’re wrong.

All you have is a rundown mango farm.

Plantation.

Plantation. Whatever.

You owe 4.9 million. You’ve depleted all your savings, and you have no assets.

What’s your plan?

Well, the plan is for me to work, and for you to go home.

Okay?

Thanks for stopping by.

[gentle music playing]

I’m just gonna go down this steep slope.

Hopefully, I won’t slip and fall.

[gentle music continues]

A quick tour.

Come on.

[gentle music continues]

[Lærke grunts softly]

Lovely view.

Yeah.

It’s really magical with that view and a nice constant breeze that’s from the northwest carrying the scent of…

Scent of, um, mangonade. [chuckles softly]

[engine revs]

[clears throat] We’re here.

Right. Yep.

Thanks.

[water trickling]

This is the heart of the plantation.

The river runs past here and to the house, and down to the fields.

[Alex speaking Spanish]

[Lærke] When can you pick them?

[Alex] You can now.

They bloom in the spring around April, and they’re ripe now.

[farmer 1] Buenos días, señor.

[Alex] Buenos días.

[speaking Spanish]

[in English] It takes six to ten years for one of the trees to give us mangoes.

Buenos.

[farmer 2] Hola, jefe.

[speaking Spanish]

[in English] Was this your dream?

Yeah. Since I was around five, my dream was to open a mango plantation here in Frigiliana.

Really?

[chuckling]

No, it wasn’t.

[gentle music playing]

What did you do before?

I was a lawyer.

A lawyer?

Yeah.

Hmm. Why’d you quit?

For love?

[Alex chuckles softly]

It’s pretty good.

Mmm?

So, it was love then, and then you two started a mango farm?

Plantation.

Plantation.

No, it belonged to her family.

[Lærke] Mmhmm.

I have work to do.

Yep.

Can you find your way back?

By myself?

Left, right, left, then follow the path.

But can I take the ATV?

No.

But it’s a really nice walk.

And this place is still not for sale.

[gentle music playing]

[chuckles softly]

[insect buzzing]

[man] Buenos días.

[indistinct chatter]

[gentle music continues]

[music intensifies]

[music stops]

[car alarm chimes]

[exhales]

[gentle music restarts]

[Paula] There’s a lot I’d love to show you.

You’re gonna love it here.

It’s a beautiful little town.

I’d actually like to see a beach.

I just wanna get in the water when it’s this hot.

Well, there is no beach in Frigiliana. [chuckles]

Okay.

[both laugh]

It is very beautiful.

I know. It is.

[camera clicking]

Why are you, like, so interested in buildings and all that?

Um, I’ve always wanted to become an architect.

That’s so cool.

I just tried to get into the school, but I didn’t get in.

Oh. Maybe you can just try it again next year.

Oh my God, this is so beautiful.

You like it?

Yes. I love it.

[chuckles]

[gentle music continues]

I know exactly where we’re going next.

Let’s go. We’re just gonna pick up my friend on the way.

[Alex sighs]

You’re still here?

Sit down.

Sit down.

What if they can coexist somehow?

What can coexist?

Your mango fa…

Plantation.

Plantation and… And our hotel?

Hmm? Just… Okay.

If we take care of the fields…

[sighs] …the cultural heritage, and all the trees.

The hotel guests would love it.

The hotel would create new jobs, even give the area a boost.

All your employees would keep their jobs, you would keep this place, everything you have would stay the same, and Weltzer would get their way.

They’ll also be happy to invest…

You did notice you have no phone signal up here?

Yeah. But I just think moving…

And there’s hardly electricity most of the day.

Yeah, I get that.

No water at night.

Look, we’ll fix it. Plus…

If we solve all the infrastructure issues, this would be mutually beneficial.

More activity, more jobs here.

Well? It’s not completely stupid.

[uplifting music playing]

[indistinct]

[all whooping]

[screaming and laughing]

[man] Watch out!

[yelling]

[uplifting music continues]

[man chuckles]

[Paula] It’s so good.

I love it.

So good, isn’t it?

Do you like it?

Yeah, I do.

[small plane engine droning]

Before you freak out, I just wanna say…

Want some?

It’s pretty good.

Yep.

So did you have a good day?

Very good, actually.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Paula introduced me to one of her friends.

We went to a water park.

Not like kids playing. It was more like…

No. I assumed it wasn’t.

Actually, it was pretty childish behavior.

[chuckles] Sounds nice.

[chuckles] It was.

[Lærke exhales]

How about you?

Oh, I went down to the plantation again.

So I’m sore.

Why’d you go?

Because we’re trying to find a solution, so I can build a hotel for Weltzer.

I know.

I saw your drawings.

Right. Thanks for your help.

You’re welcome.

Mmm.

I doubt you’ll get them to leave the farm though.

Yeah.

We’re invited to a festival down there.

Oh no.

It’s probably a mango thing.

[Agnes chuckling] I think it is, actually.

A fucking mango party.

I thought you wouldn’t find out if you got in or not until August.

Fuck it. It doesn’t matter.

No, don’t say that.

It doesn’t.

It does matter. I mean, it…

There’s been a bunch…

Happening lately.

[chuckles] Yeah.

What?

Nothing.

No, tell me. What?

A lot happening lately?

For the past 18 years, or what?

[Agnes scoffs]

Do you remember your grandparents?

Dad’s mom and dad? Yeah, of course.

I know you remember them.

I meant my parents.

Know what they got me when I turned nine?

I got a single sticky note saying they had gone to Munich, and they told me to stay over with our neighbors, and that they’d get back a week later.

Well, it’s not…

I mean, it’s no excuse at all.

But what I’m trying to say is that I…

[sighs]

Your dad loves this kind of stuff.

And he’s so good at it.

Your father’s so good at it.

He’s so good at…

He’s so good at Christmas, packing lunches and, uh, doing your homework with you.

So when I picked you up, I just felt like…

As if I took you from your real family and took you to an awful onebedroom condo, where you’d be screaming for your dad…

So it’s my fault?

[Lærke] No.

Is that it?

I’m just saying that you had everything at your dad’s.

At my place…

There was nothing at mine for you.

My mom was there.

[moped revving in the distance]

God, I’m sorry. I feel so shitty for…

No, don’t say sorry.

I shouldn’t have…

Don’t apologize, I hear you.

I hear you, okay?

[emotional music playing]

It’s the weekend. Aren’t you…

Going out with your friends?

No, I think they, um…

They were tired and went back home.

You’ll just have to drink wine with your boring mom.

Yeah.

[chuckles softly]

[music intensifies]

[music fades]

[Alex] Paulita, give me a hand.

[Paula] Coming.

Are those from the south end?

Yeah.

Do you think we can use these for the harvest party?

I don’t know.

Did you invite the Danish ladies?

Yeah, I invited Agnes.

What?

You like her.

What?

Her mom.

Bro, no way.

[Paula] Bro, yeah!

No!

Yes! I saw you looking all fancy, dressed up in your new shirt.

Because I had a meeting, so I put it on.

Mmhmm.

[sighs] I don’t have to explain myself to you.

Of course not.

Alex?

Yeah.

I wouldn’t mind.

I’m sure my sister wouldn’t mind either, you know?

I’m sure she would actually be happy for you, I think.

[emotional music playing]

[engine starts]

[Lærke] So what if both can coexist?

The mango plantation and our hotel?

If we keep the mango trees and the culture, you know.

Our hotel guests would really love that.

Having the hotel here would honestly revive the area and create more jobs, and we can, well, build up trust while we’re expanding the hotel.

Anyway, I’d love to discuss it with you, Joan, so please give me a call when you can, okay? Bye.

What are you looking at?

Chill out.

[chuckles] What?

I don’t understand why you don’t ditch those assholes.

You’ll do anything to turn a profit for them, do all kinds of shit for them, and if you used just a small fraction of that energy, you…

Funny, ’cause I’m so sure you wanted to be an architect, but I’m wondering if you should be a financial advisor.

[Agnes] Hmm.

[chuckles softly]

I’m my father’s daughter.

Yep.

Talk to Dad about it.

He’d totally help you, girl.

With what?

A business of your own.

I can’t. Not when I’m on my way up at work.

Now isn’t the right time.

Oh, come on. Stop.

You don’t have any friends, a boyfriend, or hang out with your family.

So, what more do you need?

I have a lot of friends.

I have tons of friends.

Mmm.

When was your last date?

What are you asking?

When was your last date?

I don’t think I wanna discuss this with you.

Just say when.

I don’t remember.

When was the last time you dated?

Uh, your father?

Yeah. Okay, it was Dad.

Yeah.

[cell phone ringing]

I think it’s your phone.

Too bad.

Sorry, if I was a bitch. I just…

My hands are wet. I can’t.

I do have friends.

Hola, Paula.

Yes! I’m coming.

I think my mom’s coming too.

No, I’m not. I’m not coming.

Yeah, she’s coming.

[Paula] Hello.

Oh, I’m so glad you came.

Of course.

[Paula] How are you? Good?

Yeah, I’m good.

Hello. How are you?

Hi. How are you?

[Lærke] Oh. Oh.

[Paula] Are you coming?

No, unfortunately I have to go home.

[Paula] You sure?

[phone buzzing] I have to take this, say hi. Have fun.

Okay? Bye.

[Paula] Come on. You look nice.

[Lærke] Hi, Joan.

[Joan] I really can’t hear…

One sec. Bad connection. Let me get in.

Hello?

What did you say, Joan?

Well, I just got your message.

What the hell’s going on?

We are not doing some community mango plantation bullshit.

Just do your job.

The board meeting’s soon.

Lock this deal down, Lærke.

You have one job.

Get him to sign, and then draw up plans for the hotel.

I’d prefer if you had an…

I can’t hear…

Couldn’t we try and keep a little…

Just close the deal so we can tear down the damn farm.

But I…

Hello?

I gotta go. Bye.

[Alex] Hey.

[Lærke] Hi.

Hi.

I think it’s, uh, one of those…

Yeah, push. It’s, uh…

Yeah, okay. Yeah, I’m coming.

[all applaud]

[in Spanish] Holy Mary!

We’ve eaten so many mangoes, we’ll be sick to our stomachs!

What a party, right?

[soft cheers] Paula.

[Paula] What?

I love you, beautiful.

[all laughing]

Here we go.

[man 2] Go, Paula!

[man 1] I want to take a moment to talk about a great friend of mine.

A friend who looks out for all of us.

He’s our brave leader…

[in English] Juan’s already at it.

I have to tell you something, Alex.

Yeah?

If you’ve got a minute to talk.

Yeah, sure.

Hermano? Alex?

Alex! Alex!

Alex! Alex!

Alex! Alex! Alex!

Uh, I gotta go.

I gotta make a fool of myself.

No worries.

But we’ll talk after?

For sure.

Grab a beer.

Yep!

[Juan] Alex! Alex! Alex!

Alex! Alex! Alex!

Ah! [laughs]

[all applauding]

Vamos, vamos, Alex!

Alex! Alex! Alex!

[all laugh]

[in Spanish] It’s a pleasure to have you all here. And I am certain…

That Ría, Manuel and Mari would enjoy this very much.

Especially Mari would enjoy hearing my clumsy Spanish.

[all laugh]

[in English] I’m gonna do this in English, okay?

Every year we celebrate your hard work, the harvest, and this community, this special community.

People are always searching for something.

Something bigger, more shiny.

I know I used to.

Looking for happiness in all the wrong places.

[in Spanish] You?

[chuckles]

[clears throat]

[in English] Family is happiness.

[emotional music playing]

We’re all given one, but the people we choose to spend our time with, the people we choose to spend our lives with every day, the people who choose to change the direction of their lives to be with us…

That’s family.

[in Spanish] This community’s my family.

[applause]

[Juan in English] Bravo.

[Alex] I know how this place ensures the survival of this community.

And I will do everything that’s in my power to keep it that way.

[Juan] Yeah! Bravo, Alex!

Okay. Let’s celebrate.

What did you…

What did you…

[both chuckle]

You start.

I really liked your speech.

Thanks.

I didn’t mean any of it, but…

[chuckles] What do you wanna talk about?

I don’t know.

Nothing.

It’s not important. It’s not important.

You don’t speak Spanish?

You never learned it?

I think I speak it well.

[laughing] Okay.

Yeah. I did great.

I think it’s not too bad.

Well, since it’s you, I have to.

Of course.

Come in.

Our girls had too much to drink.

Let me see you.

She’s fine.

You okay?

Yeah.

[Lærke] Hmm?

[laughing] You have something on your face.

Yeah, okay. Come on. Up!

[Alex] Got her?

Come on. Upstairs. Let’s go.

It’s bedtime.

[Agnes laughing] I can’t…

Yeah. Oh, no, no! Hey, hey.

[Alex] Okay.

Can you take her?

Yeah. Where are we going?

Upstairs, here.

[Agnes exhales]

[Lærke] To your right.

It’s just the door back there, down the end.

Yep.

[Lærke] There.

Got her?

Yep. There, sweetie.

[calm music playing]

There you go, sweetie.

[Alex] Okay.

[Lærke] Right there. Right there’s good.

[Agnes] Mom?

[Lærke] Okay, let’s get your shoes off.

This one.

This one.

There you go, sweetie.

Hope you feel better.

[sighing] Thank you.

[Alex chuckles] How about some wine?

[Alex sighs] Yes, please.

[both chuckling]

Were they inside the plane?

Yes. They sat inside it.

But they didn’t…

What were they doing in there?

Well, they were inside the plane.

But was it a real one?

Yeah, just a small one.

[Lærke] Oh my God.

Only a small plane.

[Lærke] It still was a plane though.

It was a little plane. They weren’t…

I mean, they weren’t gonna take off.

It was 100% Paula’s idea.

I’d guess it wasn’t Paula’s idea…

I promise that…

I bet it was my…

No.

Definitely.

Listen. Paula thinks it’s a secret.

But she really wants to become a pilot.

So it was Paula.

[calm music fades]

[both chuckle]

[Lærke] Okay.

I doubt it.

Mmm. She told me about her project.

Project?

Yeah, the one that didn’t, uh, get her accepted.

She told you about that?

Mmhmm.

Yeah, it probably would’ve made a bit more sense if she hadn’t chugged half a bottle of rum before telling me, but…

Yeah, that’s true.

But she’s smart. Really smart.

It’s no wonder you’re proud of her.

She hasn’t told me about it.

The project.

I don’t know anything about it, but…

I haven’t asked about it.

[Alex exhales]

[grunts softly]

[Lærke chuckles] What about you?

What about me?

[Lærke] What do you wanna do?

What do I want?

Your big dream?

What are you saying?

It’s a big question to ask someone.

[laughing] God. No idea.

I haven’t thought about it since…

Since the fire?

[crickets chirping]

I remember that, um…

I felt like…

Everything had been taken away from me.

And that everything I had, and everything I loved, everything I believed in, was suddenly taken away from me in an instant.

But… But then I looked over at Paula.

This little fragile, precious girl…

She lost everything.

So I think, I just…

I rebuilt the farm, and then… took care of her.

And then life went on…

And here we are.

HOW’S OUR PLAN WORKING OUT?

HAVE YOU PERSUADED HIM TO SIGN?

[door opens]

[Lærke] I might just take the day off.

[door closes]

Perhaps we could go to that market you told me about?

If you want to?

You have a message.

Was that your plan all along?

I didn’t know how to tell you.

I’m beginning to understand, why…

If…

…Agnes finds it difficult to share stuff with you.

Please tell her that she’s always welcome in our house.

Get home safe.

[somber music playing]

Mom?

Uh, hi.

Are you okay?

[Lærke] Mmhmm.

You know, we all do stupid things, like, when we love someone.

[Lærke] Mmm.

[somber music playing]

Admit you like him.

No.

Say that you like him.

You need to do it.

Stop, please.

You have… some kind of need to control everything.

It’s not about whether I like him or not, is it?

What is it, Mom?

I’m not relationship material.

I let people down.

[somber music fades]

And I don’t make anybody happy, I know it.

I see it.

He looks happy in this photo.

Yeah.

[Lærke sighs]

If anybody can find a solution to some problem, it’s you.

You really can.

[Lærke] Hmm.

[emotional music playing]

And no matter what…

You’ve given me one of the best vacations I’ve ever been on.

And you definitely make me happy.

[emotional music intensifies]

[woman] Hola.

Excuse me?

Oh, hell no. Forget about it.

I have the aisle seat.

If you could, uh, move your bag…

[Agnes] Mmhmm.

Thank you.

Thank you very much. Thanks.

Mmhmm.

Hi.

Hi.

Hi.

[intriguing music playing]

Where is your son?

Excuse me?

You had a baby, right?

Oh, of course, yeah.

He’s staying with his dad in Spain.

Uhhuh. Yeah. Half Spanish, half Danish.

Yeah. He’s really lucky. Yeah.

[jet engines roaring]

[Paula] What’s wrong?

[Alex] Nothing.

Doesn’t seem like it.

Can you please slow down?

You haven’t stopped working all morning.

[Alex grunts]

Can you talk to me, please?

Alex, you need to take a break.

[whistle blows]

Damn it!

[Paula] Alex!

Alex.

[Alex breathing deeply]

You know, when you were asking about…

Being tired…

Cansado, you know, of all this fighting.

Yeah.

So?

Were you talking about me or you?

[Paula chuckles]

You, obviously.

Just look at yourself, you look rough.

[laughs]

Okay.

I remember when Mari was with us.

You always used to talk about flying…

And flight school.

Yeah.

But I’m happy here, so…

You know?

[emotional music playing]

Are you?

[Alex breathes deeply]

Yes, yeah, of course.

[Paula chuckles]

I’m gonna go.

Get some lunch.

Mmhmm. Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Hi, beautiful.

The flowers are nice.

The Board sent them.

I think, we nailed it.

But he wouldn’t sign it.

He sent the contracts this morning.

I don’t know what you did. It’s amazing.

He signed.

[claps] Yeah. We just need the final documents, and you’re on your way back to Málaga.

I’ll get the formalities sorted within a couple of weeks, then you’ll head back, tear it all down and build the hotel.

Decorate, train staff, then open.

[somber music playing]

Um…

I’d better go.

But…

[door closes]

Okay.

TRIED CALLING. LEFT A VOICE MESSAGE.

PLEASE CALL ME BACK.

IT’S NOT WHAT YOU THINK…

CAN WE TALK? I’D LIKE TO EXPLAIN…

ALEX?

I ENJOYED OUR NIGHT…

SORRY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.

[door opens]

[Tom] Hey.

Hey, Tom.

[door closes]

Hi.

I checked the contracts and they look pretty solid.

[Lærke] Shit.

Weltzer’s done everything by the book, so we can’t really mess with it.

Do you mind?

Sure.

Okay. Where was I? [clears throat] So I talked to the bank, and it turns out your friend owes them 4.9 million kroner.

So, unless he can come up with the cash, there’s no chance in hell your friend’s gonna keep his farm.

Yeah.

Yeah. There, I’ve said it. Good.

Thanks for trying.

It’s fine. All good.

How’s Agnes doing?

She misses you.

No.

She just misses Málaga. [chuckles] Yeah, that too.

But I think she misses you too.

Have you always breathed like that, or…

Like what?

You’re breathing very heavily…

What are you saying, I breathe fine…

Stop doing that because it’s annoying…

I can’t stop breathing.

I’m breathing like everyone else.

No, you’re wheezing.

Okay. Listen.

We’re having a gender…

Reveal.

You’re having a what?

Um, I guess, um…

A what?

Gender reveal.

A shower, kind of. I guess, for the baby.

A gender reveal?

Shower? You kidding me?

Yeah, well…

Vivi really wants one.

She wants one?

Yeah. Do you wanna come?

[chuckling] No!

I mean, for Agnes?

Not for Agnes either.

Well, for Agnes and me as well.

It’ll be quick.

Thanks.

Don’t worry, I get it.

Can I take this?

[Lærke sighs] It’s for Vivi, you know.

I know she’d love to have one small glass.

Please take it.

Thanks.

[light music playing]

By the way, he does have a 14day withdrawal period.

Okay?

Mmm.

See you.

Thanks, Tom.

Gender.

SHOULD WE SELL YOUR HOUSE?

[Tom] Two, one!

SOLD!

[all applaud and cheer]

[indistinct chatter]

[Tom] I can’t believe we’re having a little girl.

I just can’t believe this.

A little girl.

Oh my God, so amazing.

Oh, thank you.

Okay, everyone. Please, dig in!

[emotional music playing]

[birds chirping]

[Agnes] Are you snooping around?

I wasn’t, I promise. Um…

Is that your project?

Yeah.

It is.

How does it work?

You don’t have to ask me.

But I’d like to know.

[Agnes chuckles softly]

You know what tiny houses are, right?

Yeah.

So, everyone’s got their own house.

The big expenses like solar panels and thermal heating will all be shared and made accessible within the community.

They’ll have a shared water supply and heating system.

The houses are, of course, built from biomaterials.

Preferably regenerative.

[inspirational music playing]

And each of the walls are rammedclay soil and insulated with eelgrass.

And they’d all have chip roofing made from wood scraps.

It’s gonna be dynamic and environmentally friendly.

What?

It’s a brilliant idea.

[Agnes chuckles] You nailed it.

Thanks.

Tell that to architecture school.

Oh, fuck that school.

Yeah.

Fuck them.

[inspirational music continues]

Have you talked to Paula?

Mmm, yeah.

We’ve been texting.

Oh, yeah?

Have you talked to Alex?

Uh, no.

No.

The reception’s bad.

Just call him.

There’s cake.

Right. I’ll get some.

[Agnes clicks tongue]

Agnes?

[Agnes] Yeah.

Come back up.

[footsteps approaching]

What’s up?

Pack your suitcase.

[music continues]

Are you stupid?

Yeah, perhaps.

We’ll just build it without you.

Joan, you’re not building that hotel.

Maybe somewhere else, but not…

You can’t build on that plantation.

What will you do?

We have a contract.

He’s signed it already.

He has 14 days to withdraw from it, if he likes.

Okay.

Okay. So you want to stop all of this?

You don’t have to understand.

Joan, I really appreciate everything you’ve done and helped me with.

I’m so sorry about this, but this is just the way it is.

I have to do this.

[lighter clicks]

[inspirational music continues]

You’re fired.

Yeah.

Fuck!

[inspirational music continues]

How’s it going?

It’s okay.

[Paula sighs]

[ATV approaching]

Oh my God! [gasps] You came!

Whoo!

[Alex sighs]

[Paula] It’s so good to see you.

Why are you here?

[Lærke] Can we talk?

[music fades]

There’s nothing to say.

Just give me a chance. Five minutes, I’ll leave you alone. Just five minutes.

Hey, I have a lot of work to do here.

And we have nothing to talk about. Okay?

[workers speaking Spanish]

Fine.

[Paula] Do you think they’re okay?

Uh, yeah.

They’ll be fine.

[insects buzzing]

[whistle blows]

Okay.

Does that mean we’re done?

Mmhmm. Yeah.

God, yes.

Are we done?

Yeah.

Can we talk now?

We have to move all the crates.

[speaking Spanish]

Gracias.

[engine starts]

Come on.

We’re just standing here.

Can you hear me out now?

I’m working.

Come on, we’re not curing cancer.

It’s mangoes. Hear me out, just once!

What do you want to say?

It’s diffic… You make it so hard.

Tell me!

It’s a bit hard to apologize when I’m yelling at you.

I’m really sorry.

[scoffs] Sorry, I really tried my best.

And I’m sorry it all went wrong.

Okay? Seriously.

You did great.

You got what you wanted.

You got to buy the place. You’ll get your big shiny hotel. It’s all great.

[crickets chirping]

Why are you here?

Because of you.

I’m here because of you.

You don’t need to sell to Weltzer.

I’ve sold my apartment and I’ve borrowed some money.

Quite a lot of money, actually.

Way too much money.

[emotional music playing]

You sold your apartment?

Yeah.

You’ll have a lot of debt.

Yeah.

You have no assets?

No.

So what’s your plan?

[music becomes uplifting]

12 MONTHS LATER

[indistinct chatter]

[Paula chuckles]

I did it!

[Agnes] Whoo!

[Lærke] Congratulations!

[Agnes] Yay!

[Lærke] Good job, Paula!

Oh my God, I’m so proud.

[Alex] Great job.

[Paula] Thanks.

What’s up, girl?

[Paula] Hola, chica.

Hola, chica.

Was it good?

So good. I’m so proud of you.

[Paula] How is it here?

[Lærke] What do you think?

[Agnes] Good. Okay. You guys good?

Perfect.

[Alex] You look pretty good.

[Agnes] This first lot will be down the hill…

Are you proud?

[emotional music continues]

Mmhmm. Very.

Are you crying?

What?

Are you crying?

Am I crying? No way, of course not!

Are you so proud that you’re crying?

[laughing] No, I’m not crying.

Yes, you are. Let me see.

No, I’m really not.

Your eyes are a bit wet.

I’m just sweating!

Maybe it’s the light. Eye sweat. [laughs] I’m sweating.

Look at you. Look at what you did.

Look at us.

I’m so proud.

[Paula laughs] Yay! We did it!

[Agnes laughs] There’ something we need to discuss.

Okay?

[emotional music continues]

We can’t sell mangonade to people any longer. No one gets it!

Everybody gets it.

When I explain it, they get it.

What?

Lemonade, mangonade.

Give me a break, mangonade…

We’re adding avocade now.

What? No.

Avocade.

From avocado. So it’ll be lemonade, mangonade, avocade. Wow!

Doesn’t that sound like a great idea?

[Lærke] Mmm! Mmm! That just…

It will fly off the shelves.

No, it won’t. I’m telling you!
