SEID - A MAGICAL RITUAL WHERE ONE GAINS PRESCIENCE. FREYA WAS A MASTER OF THIS.
Good morning.
My strong, beautiful man.
What did we drink yesterday?
Mead.
Come down for breakfast when you're ready. I'll wait for you.
Did you do it?
Where's the hammer?
It's with its owner, where it belongs.
-You were supposed to take it as he slept. -I've changed the plan.
Magne and I have grown fond of each other.
Now that I have a strong man to take care of me,
I have more things to consider.
Hi, my love. Come. Let's have breakfast together.
All of us.
What do you think?
Should I bring two pairs of swim trunks? It might be good to have a spare.
Do you think two dresses is fine? Or should I bring three?
-Well… -We'll go out for dinner and…
That's cute.
Do you need to bring dresses?
Stop it.
Bring two. You can get yourself a nice third dress there.
-Would you like some more coffee? -No, thank you.
This is perfect.
Come in.
Hi.
-Hi. -Hi.
Hi.
You don't have to knock, my darling girl.
Hi.
How are you doing?
I want to speak to Magne.
He's not here right now. He's out.
Right. I know where he is, then.
-I have some stuff upstairs. -Okay.
Hi, sweetheart.
-What happened between you two? -I don't really know.
I'm probably too much for him.
I think Magne is just confused. He doesn't mean to hurt you.
It seems like he does. But that's okay.
That's clearly not okay.
I don't get it at all.
I don't know what I did wrong. He just…
Sweetheart.
Turid!
-Go on, go. -Darling! The cab is here!
I'm coming! We have to make a stop on the way.
-It's okay. -Take care.
Come in!
Hi!
Hi, Turid.
-Thank you for yesterday. Lovely wedding… -What are you doing here?
Erik and I are on our way to the airport.
He's waiting in the cab.
I'd like to have a word alone with Magne, please.
I just saw Signy. She was very upset.
I've failed as a mother. Didn't I teach you to behave?
-What you did at the wedding… -What's the problem?
The problem?
The problem is that you were late to my wedding. Fine.
You waltz in with a new girlfriend. It's okay to have a new girlfriend.
In front of everyone, in front of Signy. But not without breaking up
with the old one first.
What are you doing with your new style and everything?
And why Saxa?
She's lovely, as are all the Jutuls.
I know that well.
But this is a different world. We don't belong here.
Why do you think so little of yourself, Mom?
I'm doing just fine. You don't know me.
I'm just wondering why you're doing this.
Why do you look so tortured?
And that hammer. Are you doing carpentry now?
-What are you talking about? -Are you doing drugs with Saxa?
It's just like that thing with the dog.
When you don't understand something, you think it's drugs.
-Of course I think it's drugs. -I'm not taking drugs.
You come here yelling at me and trying to control me.
When you try to make me feel as small and ordinary as yourself,
I can see very fucking well why they fired you that time.
Okay.
You're wearing too many clothes.
That's true. But it's a little weird to go to work in nothing but my underwear.
Although I'd love that.
Can't you play hooky?
Call in sick so you can be here with me.
Hey.
Can I help you with anything?
This my boyfriend, Laurits.
Congratulations.
That's great. So nice to see two people like you find each other.
People like us?
Yes, you know… both the same type.
You're both… homosexual.
-Yes. -Yeah…
You're working on that food waste project, right?
I've got something for you!
But those one aren't wasted.
No, no. These one are for you.
The thing is… Maybe you two as… homosexuals,
while in here, could be a bit less…
in front of the customers…
You'll give me 50 hot dog buns
if I promise to be less…
homosexual?
-Hi. -Hi.
Thank you for coming on such short notice, especially on a Sunday.
No problem.
Sorry to vape in your office.
Watermelon?
-So? -It's been a little difficult.
I get that.
It's Magne. Again.
-Magne? -He's now my daughter's boyfriend.
He can't be good for her.
He's made death threats to me and my son.
That's what I was talking about last time. My fear of death.
Yes.
I can see a change in her.
We kept her as a slave for a year.
A form of punishment in our family.
But after Magne came into the picture,
she's been more determined. More driven.
But she has gone completely off the rails. She's unruly.
If you have kept your own daughter as a slave.
Which isn't strictly…
legal.
Then perhaps it's a good thing for her to have a boyfriend?
No.
Taking the helicopter to Oslo to shop…
Never did that before.
Get used to it.
I have another gift for you.
It's for our best friend. The hammer.
I am here with a real-life celebrity.
The winner of this year's Paradise Beach, who dropped out of high school
and in no time at all has become one of Norway's biggest influencers.
-Welcome home, Iman! -Thank you.
How does it feel to be back in Edda,
with a small army of fans following you around?
It's so nice. It's lovely to be back in Edda.
I've been to a wedding to celebrate love.
Yes, you have a special relationship with love.
In Paradise Beach you told us
that you were a feminist and a modern goddess of love.
Can you elaborate?
Love is the strongest force in the world.
It has started and ended wars.
It creates both life and the feeling of loss when life is over.
We must submit to love.
If we don't, we're lying to ourselves.
Hi, everybody!
I just want to show you all my hometown.
I'm downtown in what's called New Edda.
Freya!
You've changed.
You're using your divine powers to win a reality show.
I have 150,000 followers.
I'm just telling young women to believe in themselves.
Do you know what happened to Magne?
Yeah.
It's fucked up.
But he's the one who broke the fellowship.
Magne is with a Giant.
So maybe Ragnarok is cancelled.
That is what you have to find out.
You can see what's going to happen. You have that power.
I don't know what you mean.
Did the Volva never tell you?
About Seid?
The art of seeing the future.
Freya was a master at it.
Much better than the rest of us.
She used herbs.
Along with her special magic.
Maybe you don't have the guts.
You're so wise, Wotan.
Many people are vegetarians nowadays. It's good for you.
It tastes good, though.
It's fresh.
What do you mean… This is the same as last time.
Talk properly to your mother.
You'll eat what you're served.
Excuse me. What in the world are you doing?
Are you throwing trash in the fjord?
No. I'm just feeding some ducks.
EDDA HIGH SCHOOL
Today we'll continue our discussion on the rule of law.
As citizens, sometimes it feels like our sense of justice is violated.
Does anyone have any examples? Yes?
When a victim meets their assailant in the supermarket the day after.
Correct. A classic example. Anyone else?
What about when a multinational company poisons the drinking water of a whole town
and gets away with it because they can afford to put pressure on the state?
Many people feel like Jutul Industries got away with it too easily
when the drinking water got poisoned in Edda. Anyone has anything to add?
Magne?
Yes. They have changed their water treatment plant.
It sounds like you're defending the Jutuls.
-Defending them? No. -No?
They might be the only ones trying.
-Have you done anything? -Was that Saxa speaking?
Measure your words!
Wait a minute. Magne has a point.
We have to ask the right questions. What does it take?
When do people take action when confronted by injustice?
When it's too late.
-What is it? -People are staring.
Does that matter?
I need to do something. I'll be right back.
Can we talk?
I want to explain to you what's going on.
You don't have to do that.
I'm fine.
I can tell that you're not fine.
No, but…
It's none of your business anymore, Magne.
If this is really you, you're not who I thought you were.
Maybe it was for the best.
You're the one who dumped me.
You wanted a break.
Just a break, Magne.
I just needed some time.
And then you do this?
Show me Magne's journey.
Hear me in silence, all you holy creatures.
From Heimdall's sons, both high and low.
Valfar, you wanted me to tell of the old message
as best as I recall.
-Can we talk? -I have a meeting.
It's important. We have to talk.
-Do you need me? -I'll holler if I do.
Now that you're getting used to the new times,
a few things have to happen. You know I love high school.
But it pales in comparison to running Norway's fifth largest company.
Since I was good at that job,
I suggest that we work together.
You don't really have a choice.
Since the Serpent plan failed.
Fjor.
Are you leaving us?
I wanted to return this.
You have to solve it yourself.
You have seen something.
And it scared you so much that you want to run away.
Take care of Magne. And yourself.
What is that lady afraid of, boss?
The future.
Hey!
I was supposed to meet some friends for a hike.
There is a path down by the fjord, but I can't find it.
Do you know how to get there?
Let me see…
We are here.
The path goes here, along the fjord.
I'm so bad at reading maps.
I've always been useless at it.
Could I ask you for a favor?
Could you take me there? Would that be possible?
Should we help the nice, young man?
-Of course. -Wonderful. Thank you.
-We can go this way. -I'll tag along.
-Yes. -Yes.
People are always complaining about climate change,
but the heat is making the trees grow leaves earlier.
So here at Radio Edda we say, what's not to like?
-Hey. -Hi!
I almost thought you dumped me.
Because I only sent
-twelve, fifteen messages an hour? -Yes.
-What did you bring? -Just the most important stuff.
My king-sized duvet.
Are you moving in?
Perhaps while Erik and Turid are away. Wouldn't that be nice?
And you've found some old food in the freezer?
Yeah, it's for my food waste project.
You're a really good person.
You're the first person to tell me that.
I'll help you.
The police are on their way.
Marianne Hansen has passed away under rather mysterious circumstances.
We have found parts of her body in the fjord.
We assume that her body hit the propeller of a large ship.
That's all we have.
You are one of the last persons to see her alive.
Did you notice anything different at all?
It pains me to say, but I think the job was challenging for her.
A lot of that is on me.
I'm not the easiest person to work for.
I think it can be hard.
And being a boss yourself, you know what I'm talking about.
Do you think she could have been depressed?
Not at all, really.
But she only worked here for two days.
I'm not that good at reading people either.
She did seem a little stressed, so I offered her a lift home.
After I dropped her off, I don't know what might have happened.
I think we have what we need.
-Thank you for your time. -Likewise.
We have to go. Some tourists have gone astray.
It's a full-time job.
Just this morning
we got a call about an older couple that went missing.
We want people to take more precautions
before wandering into nature.
-Maybe they can't read maps very well. -No…
No comment.
-Goodbye. -Bye.
Hi.
Hey. Look here.
Look. Here you go.
Hey.
Come on.
Little one…
Grandma's home-cooked meal. It tastes great.
Here.
Hey… Sweetie.
You could at least try it.
Okay, you have to eat.
What is it that you want?
Fine, you can have that one.
Are you not joining, chicken?
Fjor, did you ask for the RIBs to be out to sea already?
Yeah.
I wanted to go for a trip.
Have some fun. You could come with me, Magne.
-What? -A little race down the fjord tomorrow.
The RIBs have 300 horsepower each. Pretty cool.
-Why are you racing? -I'm good enough to beat him.
You couldn't even beat him in axe throwing.
-That was the first round. -Second.
-I've always been awesome at sea. -I'm just saying that I'm better.
-Magne is, too. -I don't think so.
What do you say, Magne?
Are you interested?
-Tomorrow? -Yeah.
-I won't go to school, then. -That's absolutely fine.
Your grades are so good, after all.
…pretty high temperatures next week.
It's almost time to get out your sun hat and the floaties,
perhaps a glass of cider. SPAR has a discount… Oh.
I just got a message from the police. Here it is.
The police is looking for two people
last seen when they were walking along the fjord, due north.
They are a married couple, Elin Strunk and Lars Stein,
respectively 73 and 71 years old.
They were wearing hiking gear. The police is asking anyone…
Good morning, handsome.
Is there something wrong?
No, I…
It's just a little morning stress.
I have to be in school in a few minutes.
-Where is Magne? -He's not coming today.
He'll be out on the fjord.
Laurits. Could you come with me?
Do you see that buoy?
We go slowly, do a countdown and start.
By the way, that's a new Mercury with 300 horsepower, so hold on.
-Or you'll fall flat on your ass. -Are you trying to scare me?
-I'm just saying, you will get scared. -Okay.
Are you ready? Three!
Two!
One!
Hey!
Fjor!
Why do I have to sit here? What's going on?
Consider it a family day.
Would you like a glass of wine?
Who the hell drinks white wine at 9:30 in the morning?
Your stepmom.
Hello!
Magne.
-Something is wrong. -What's going on, boss?
I need to find out.
I've never tried this before.
Have you never smoked a joint before? I can help you, boss.
Show me the future.
Hear me in silence, all you holy creatures.
What's going on here?
What do you want? Let me go, human daughter.
Don't you understand?
Bring in both of them. Let's go.
That was Little O!
Who is not that little anymore.
What are you doing? What is happening to Magne?
Come on.
Come on!
Come back!
Please. Come back to me.
