39) Int. Gällivare - pub - evening
Lasse and Magnus are entering a pub. The barkeeper greets them with a short nod.
Magnus heads for the bar and orders two beers.
Lasse observes Magnus who sits down at a table and waves to join him.
Lasse goes to sit down next to Magnus. He feels visibly out of his element.
Magnus
Relax. It's just a change of scenery.
Lasse
I'm not fond of such places. It's precisely why we are finally going on this journey; to leave such things behind.
Magnus
I know. Just let us celebrate one last time...
Lasse
You mean drink?
The barkeeper brings 2 glasses. Magnus swigs his beer.
Magnus
Call it like you want.
Lasse pushes his glass aside.
Lasse
That is nothing for me...
Magnus takes another big sip.
Lasse
Well... If you want to... celebrate once again, do it then.
Magnus
One last time...
Lasse
In that case I would rather go for a walk to savour the evening in a different way...
Magnus
Okay. Where shall we meet?
Lasse
I will come along in a little while.
Magnus
When?
Lasse
In 2, 3 hours...
As he leaves the pub Lasse shortly looks back to Magnus and shakes his head. Magnus doesn't notice it because he is engaged with the second beer.
Series of shots (Magnus has a lot of drinks)
A blonde girl and 3 men are entering the pub and sit down at the neighbouring table. Magnus, already tipsy, eyes them up and gives the girl a lascivious look.
Magnus downs his beer with one gulp and empties a small glass of vodka. He gets up and positions himself at the neighbouring table.
Marie
What do you want?
She indicates her friends to stay calm.
Magnus
Can I take a seat here?
Klaas
(harsh)
Closed community.
He drums his fingers impatiently on the table.
Marie
You don't seem to be a local?!
Magnus
No, I am from Gothenburg. And you are quite sweet.
He winks at her.
Marie
(laughs)
Well, at least you're honest.
Magnus smirks suggestively.
The men give him a hostile look.
Marie
Just quite ill-bred.
Guy 1
Come on, just piss off!
(to Marie)
What's the point, Marie?
Marie
Leave him!
Magnus
Marie... beautiful name.
Marie
(to Magnus)
So, what brings you here Sweetheart? Are you on holiday or are you a criminal on the run?
Magnus
Somehow we're all on the run, aren't we?
Klaas
Stop babbling and just piss off.
Magnus
(to Marie)
Are those your lapdogs?
Klaas stands up with a rush, takes hold of Magnus and seizes him by the collar.
Klaas
You're quite life-weary, aren't you? Fuck off, or I'll smash your face in.
Magnus
(pacifying)
Hey, hey, okay, easy...
Marie
Calm down Klaas. Not again.
Klaas releases Magnus.
Marie
(to Magnus)
Okay, cut it out. Just sit down at your table and order another beer. It'll be healthier for you, believe me.
Magnus claps Klaas on the shoulder.
Magnus
(ironic)
Go fuck yourself, it's good for stress.
Klaas
Right, that's it!
Klaas grabs Magnus and pushes him violently against the wall so that he can hardly breathe.
He is just about to hit Magnus in the face...
Marie
Klaas!!!
In this moment Lasse returns.
Lasse
Hey, stop it.
Klaas lowers his fist and turns around. He can see that Marie has jumped up from her chair.
Lasse is standing baffled at the entrance door.
Klaas
That your friend?
Marie
Klaas! Enough!
Klaas turns to Marie and they exchange glances.
Klaas
(quietly but firmly to Magnus)
Fuck off! If I ever see your face 'round here again...
He releases Magnus who has to gather himself. Pause.
Magnus
Nothing would have happened to me. I've got my Swedish Jesus with me.
Magnus fishes some money out of his pocket and puts it on the table.
Magnus
Come on, let's go Jesus!
Magnus grabs the shoulder of speechless Lasse and drags him out of the pub.
