"Nice to meet you,
Grandma and Grandpa."

*Great!

* —What do you say, mom?
—"Nice to meet you, Reggie and Bee."

*WELCOME TO OKLAHOMA*—

Is Bee a name?
—It’s a nickname, kind of like yours.

—They’re here.
—Okay, behave now.

—Welcome!
—Thanks.

—Anna Kay, was that you?
—Yes. And this is Elsa and Johnny.

—Nice to meet you.
—Do you speak English?

—We go to an American
school. —Oh, is that so?

—There’s no Norwegian school
around here. —Probably not necessary.

You must be thirsty after the drive.
Would you like something to drink?

—If it’s not too much trouble.
—Reggie, fetch water from the basement.

Come on, kids.

Here’s your translation: We can sit here on
the veranda. The weather is so nice today.

You’re just like your dad.

Here you’ll get it. You’re staying for
lunch, right? I’m making pumpkin stew.

It sounds delicious. We’ve
probably never eaten it before.

No.

—Why do you have water in a jerry can? —Because
the water in the ground is contaminated.

Oil seeps into the earth,
so we can’t drink the water.

—Aren’t you a cowboy?
—Yeah, I guess so.

—Want to try my hat?
—Yes, thanks.

He’s been in prison.

We have something for you. It’s in the car.

Elsa, come with me.

—Who said that?
—Uncle Rein.

Elsa, your grandparents
have never met you before.

Then let’s have a nice time.
It’s not nice to talk about prison.

–Not even if it's true?
–No.

Nice car.

I rented it at the airport. We want
to drive around a bit in the area.

–Does it have AC? –Yes,
thank God. It's very hot.

–How much do you have to pay for one like
that? –It's cheaper here than in Norway.

Oh, thanks!

–Thanks.
–Thanks.

It's a local thing.

We can have them at the next carnival.

It's nice to finally be here.

We've wanted to travel here for so long.

See where Jonathan grew up
and meet you.

I don’t know what he said,
but he left right after college.

–Can we see his room? –Well...
Jonathan lived in the camper.

We bought it for him, so
he had a place to study.

We took out a loan, but he paid
it back. He was very generous.

—Yes, he was.
—We did everything for him.

I know. He was looking forward
to coming here with the children.

I was surprised that you
came. We had stopped hoping.

I’m sorry it took so long.
It’s a long way.

Yes, it’s expensive. We
wanted to go to the funeral.

—But we couldn’t afford it.
—Yes, it’s very expensive.

Do you have a photo of his grave?

Sorry. I should have thought of that.

Yes... We wanted him to be
sent here.

—Buried here.
—But you said no.

I think he would have
wanted to stay with his family.

He was looking forward
to becoming a father.

Elsa and Johnny
never got to meet him.

Det means a lot to be
able to visit the grave.

What if it was your son who died?
Wouldn’t you have wanted to bring him home?

We have nothing
that reminds us of him.

We want him dug
up and sent here.

Are you going to go to
the trailer where dad lived?

Do that, and I promise
we’ll fly to Disneyland.

It’s just that... We also
want a grave to visit.

It’s not possible.
Because... He isn’t...?

You must have the money for that,

judging by your clothes,
and the fancy car.

I don’t know if Jonathan
said it, but Reggie got injured.

He got stuck in a
machine on the oil field.

*—He didn’t get any
compensation.* *—I’m sorry.*

*—Are you thinking
of remarrying?* *—No.*

You don’t need a provider,
who gets money from our state.

—I work.
—How lucky.

I studied economics, run a
business. I’ve worked hard.

We did too. But we never made money.

Yeah, we had to find other ways.

Did you ask me about prison?
That’s true.

I have to break the law
to support us.

But Jonathan didn’t see it that way?

He was ashamed. And now
he’s buried in a cold country.

Did he want that?

He didn’t want to die and
didn’t want to be dug up again...

The pot’s probably done now.

—Come, let’s go. —They’ve
got 100 TVs. They’re rich!

—Now we’re heading to
the hotel. —Shouldn’t we eat?

We’re having dinner. Hamburgers,
cherry pie, and milkshake.

What did I just say?

Luckyland.

–Do you have it good, Martin?
–Yes.

Hi, hi...

–Mrs. Zachariassen...
–Stop!

They are Martins.

They are for you.

–Does it feel okay?
–Yes.

Toril, call me! We haven’t seen each other
for several days. We *have* to talk. Now.

–Where have you been?
–At work.

I fell asleep on the couch
when I got home.

There’s a lot going on now.

Sorry.... I’m on my feet all day.
What did you want to talk about?

–Can I talk to you? –Yes, of
course you can. What’s up?

Is it the shipping company?

People ask me all sorts of things.
Martin is slumped on an old folks' home.

And Fredrik sits with his feet on
the desk and reads the newspaper.

"Christian, you’ll handle
it. Now it’s your turn."

But I don’t know anything about trade
agreements or protectionism or flagging out.

How am I supposed to fix this?

Where’s the ladies’ room?

He needed somewhere to sleep.

To the right in the hallway.

—So, it’s not that...
—I’m not afraid of that.

I need you. Do you get
it? You have to help me.

—As I said, it’s been
a lot... —Snap to it!

And throw out that damn
angel! Marie gets up in a quarter.

She has a math test today,
and she’s studied a lot.

Hello. Have I received any mail?
And I’d happily have a cup of coffee.

Okay.

—When is Fredrik coming today?
—He called and said he took a day off.

—Where is he? —Aren’t
he at the shipping company?

—He was supposed to help
me but isn’t. —Of course he will.

—No, Mom. It’s not clear. —He
had the entire board against him.

—I know. But it’s not... —And
me. I went against him too.

He tried to fire the board,
but I convinced him to back off.

And I went so far as to
say that his time was up.

That you’re more suited as director. I did
what was best for the shipping company.

I thought you two were old
enough to handle that change.

And so I’m not the one.
There’s so much that’s new.

Decisions that affect other people’s
lives. I don’t like being alone with that.

You have to hire a CEO for
Diving. Martin isn’t getting better.

We don’t know that. Martin
has done everything for me!

Yes, and he’s an important part of our family.
We’re doing everything we can so he gets better.

But a CEO has to be able to work!

Should I fire him?

I can’t. My wife wants to
divorce him—he has nothing!

Do you think it’ll help Martin
if the company goes under?

—Because you’re too afraid to take
responsibility? —I want him to get better!

That’s the doctors’ job. Yours is to find someone
who can take over Martin’s duties at Diving.

–Do it for the shipping company. –How
can I think about the shipping company now?

It’s just how it works,
you *have* to do it!

You *at least* have to hire
someone who takes over his tasks.

He does so much! He handles
contracts, finances, customers.

He has the overview. I need
at least two people to cover it.

An accountant and a personnel manager.

–Definitely a lawyer too.
–Or what?

Exactly.

Why have you never worked in the
shipping company? You *can* do this.

Being a shipowner’s wife
is also a responsibility.

Toril will be a good support for
you. You need someone to talk to.

Your job will consist of...
understanding other people.

You? It’ll be fine.

–Sometimes I just want to be a hitchhiker
again. –No. What if you got sick?

–Get in.
–No, you drive, just.

Do you not want a ride?

It’s not mandatory. But think if
someone dangerous comes along for real?

–What if *you’re* dangerous?
–Do I look dangerous?

Many are dangerous
without looking dangerous.

–How will you get a ride with that
logic? –Maybe a woman will come.

Yeah, that’s obvious.
Women aren’t dangerous.

If Mother Teresa had driven by,
where would you have wanted to go?

Just to Stavanger.
I start work at 12.

Yeah, then you need a fast car.

–What’s the number for the
job? –Is it a mobile phone?

I just bought it, so
you can call first.

Say you get a lift from
Rein Hellevik, that’s me.

Or that you get a lift in a
red Saab 900 Cabriolet.

Or that you’re coming to work...

...three minutes past twelve.

—The number? —Ah, it’s 62 62 42.

What if they think I’m forced
to say it under gunpoint?

—Do you hitchhike a lot? —No.

—Have you been standing
here long? —The bus left at 10:10.

—Do you work at Nordsjøen?
—I’m a drilling supervisor on Gullfaks.

—That explains the
car. —Frisk Cleaning?

Yes, hi, it’s Aslaug. I’ll be
late, because I missed the bus.

I’m getting a lift in a red car.

Say the license plate. Check
for yourself, so I don’t trick you.

Here’s the translation: --- Yes,
I’ll just give you the number.

CE 97843.

Yes. Okay, bye.

–I’ll take it.
–Yes.

Okay... Should I hold it? Okay.

For the ultimate experience you
should stand over the windshield.

–Stand up? –Yes. Then
you’ll get wind in your hair.

No!

–Are you messing with me? –No,
it’s fine. You can stand like that.

First time?

–First time?
–Yes.

I didn’t know
it was so amazing.

You get used to it.

–Who do you work for?
–Morco Drilling.

–I’m going for training at Komponent.
–Are you the drilling engineer?

–I’m training you. Rein
Hellevik. –Rolf Andersen.

–How many have you sold?
–16 so far. Including Troll.

We have about 20 orders
from the Gulf of Mexico.

—That’s why I’m here. —Business
trip with the kids? Tax fraud!

Or do you pay yourself and invoice
for the meetings? You’ve come far.

—I’m probably not the richest in
the room anymore. —Maybe not.

—Ekofisk... How many
have they bought? —None.

Phillips should be the biggest in Norway.

They haven’t received any
concessions since Kielland.

But still. They should take
more risks. I’ll call them tonight.

Did Reggie and Bee get
excited about meeting the kids?

—Do you keep in touch? —Sporadically.
They looked forward to the visit.

—It wasn’t great.
—Not?

—They want to move Jonathan here.
—Still?

They’re angry about the widow’s pension.

It’s not that much money,
compared to my salary.

It was so depressing. That’s why
I didn’t want to take the kids there.

I don’t want them to see their dad like that.
They need to understand what he was really like.

This is something he wouldn’t have wanted. He would never
have told anyone that his father had been in prison.

–Reggie made a mistake...
–They had loads of stolen goods.

He claimed that was the
only way to support himself.

If he had worked for an oil company,
wouldn’t he have gotten compensation?

He couldn’t afford a lawyer.

When Jonathan started
working, they got money.

We deducted it from his
salary, until he moved to Norway.

"How much?"
"Four hundred dollars a month."

They didn’t just lose a
son, but also an income.

"Why didn’t you say anything?"
"It was a terrible time, Anna.

You needed all the help you could get."

But can’t you...? I mean...

They should get something. It’s not fair.

Yes. The money went to you,
the widow with the unborn twins.

Here, they’ve made so much from
the oil that he should get compensation.

–Sick leave. In Norway...
–We're not in Norway.

–Here, people help each other.
–I don’t think that’s right.

Isn’t it right to help your family?

Nyman?

It looks very good.

–So everything is as it should be?
–Yes.

You’ll probably stay healthy.

–Thanks.
–It was nothing.

Will Martin get better?

Unfortunately, it doesn’t look that way.

**APPLICATION FOR**
**DIVORCE**

**STOCK CERTIFICATE**

The sea looks so beautiful now.
We could set out lobster traps.

How’s it going?

It’s going well.

–Wonderful.
–Lobster?

The sea.

–Christian, can I sleep here tonight?
–No, I don’t think so.

–You need your medication.
–I’ve got them with me.

Here’s your translation: I’m sleeping
here too. It’s not just your boat.

You have to go home.
Take care of the kids.

I’m sleeping so well on board.

—Alone?
—Yes.

Cheers.

I’m having trouble drinking...

This is going *really* well.

Take a left here.

Hey.

I just have to keep an eye
out through the binoculars.

—I thought you were here.
—Come.

Thanks.

Wait.

Like that.

–Do you know Marie isn’t
being picked up? –Yes.

–Christian is trying to
reach you. –Yes, I know.

He’s there. Out with
Martin, fishing lobsters.

Christian has what’s needed.

It’s going to be fine.
I’ll help him.

–Are you sure?
–Yes.

Look at her.

–Ta-da!
–For me? I’m not saying no.

–Marie!
–I’m coming!

Bye, friend.

–We’re cycling now!
–I’m coming! Wait!

–Do you have the key? –Do
you want to unlock the car?

I was thinking of driving.

–You need a license
for that. –I got one today.

Wait, but...

–Why didn’t you say
anything? –It was a surprise.

I’ve had driving lessons.
And I actually like driving.

–Want to ride with me?
–When you’re driving?

I passed with flying colors,
so you don’t have to worry.

—Give me the key.
—Yes, but...

When you were out,
and I couldn’t reach you...

—Were you out driving?
—Yes.

And I thought...

What? What did you think?

That you’d gotten tired of
waiting and found someone else.

—Did you *really* think that?
—Yes.

–Why didn’t you ask then?
–No... I didn’t dare.

If it had been true
I wouldn’t have known what to do.

You...

–Where do you want to go?
–I don’t know. Just drive.

Welcome to Oklahoma.

Wait a minute! What’s going on here?

Hello.

Hello again.

Here’s the translation: It’s a water
purifier, for your well. They’re popular now.

We don’t want it. We don’t
accept charity from you.

—Do you want to atone for
your bad conscience? —No, it’s...

No, thank you. We manage. The only
thing we wanted was to get our son back.

—Mom!
—Roll up the window! So... I’ll lie.

–That's ugly to lie!
–Roll up the window!

The thing is...
that it's not from me.

I visited Ed Young at
headquarters. You know Ed, right?

We found out there was a
mistake after the *Kielland* disaster.

The widow's pension is mine,
we can't do anything about that.

But...

...you're entitled to compensation from Phillips.
You should have gotten it after the accident.

So you get a lump sum of 10,000
dollars, for the years that have passed.

It's been deposited into your account.

–I have no account. –An
account has been opened for you.

From now on, you'll
receive a monthly payout—

from Phillips Petroleum—of 500 dollars.

–From Phillips?
–Exactly. Index-adjusted.

It's paid out for the rest of your life.

The water purifier... Is it
part of the compensation?

No, it's a reconciliation gift.

–Phillips regrets what
happened. –They should.

Jonathan was one of their
most valued employees.

Without him and Ed they would
never have found oil in the North Sea.

You can unload it!

Reggie? Give him a handle.

Just because you're rich now
doesn’t mean you have to be a b*stard.

That was you.

Does it matter?

I won’t say anything to
Reg. I’m just wondering why.

Because I’ve been...a b*stard.

–See you tomorrow.
–See you tomorrow.
