Blank 3x01 Clip Was that why you came? Transcript

Ida: Now I’m actually a little impressed. I simply didn’t expect Markus Berg to come back to fix things.   Markus: Sorry, it’s.. I can’t fix it now because I don’t have to tools, so I can come back or.. Ida: I think we have what you need in the shed there

Markus: In the shed

Ida: It’s open

Markus: Yeah

Markus: Hello? Markus: I’m done

Ida: Thank you

Markus: It was the least I could do

Ida: So it was

Markus: Have you had the place for long?

Ida: Almost two years. Together with my brother still, with some support from mum and dad.

Markus: But it’s only you working here?

Ida: Yes, right now. The girl who worked here quit, so. What about you? Are you back in the area? Markus: Yes, or I’m going to Trondheim.

Ida: It wasn’t the same being Markus Berg in Oslo?

Markus: Well yes, Ida…

Ida: Halvorsen

Markus: Halvorsen

Markus: Have you seen my credit card?

Ida: Was that why you came? Markus: It wasn’t like that, I’ve just forgotten my credit card

Ida: I see

Ida: Why did you lose it yesterday?

Markus: I was drunk and irritated

Ida: Well, there were some annoying people here yesterday. Russ isn’t exactly my favorite.

Markus: Did they stay here for long? Ida: They stayed until I closed.

Markus: Everyone?

Ida: It was a small gang that stayed long. I didn’t quite keep track. Everyone swarmed around the new russ president, you know how it is.

Ida: No, I can’t find it.

Markus: It’s fine. It’s probably at home or something

Markus: Bye!

Ida: Bye!

Latb: What are you doing?

*very normal to say take then would like here in Norway, not considered rude at all

** It’s hard to translate hæ, as it’s just a way of saying what, or please repeat yourself, or what did you say. so idk

*** Just tobacco in a small “bag” you have under your lip. It’s very common amongst Norwegians. As it’s frowned upon to smoke here. 

****Just the time you’re a Russ. 

****** Norwegian way of saying for sure, or just of course 

Fun fact the actor of Fredrik works for a youtube channel for NRK, I’ll leave a couple of links below if people are interested. 

Here he’s talking about his worst one night stand. He was around 20/21 and slept with a 50 year old or so : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiMkIRDWYtc

You haven’t shown up for the past week I’ve resigned I don’t think they’ve understood that completely, to be honest No, apparently not What’s going on? No, it’s just an insanely erratic firm, like… very messy* Call them then Yeah yeah, pest* (I’m going to look for a better English word for this because he’s saying that she’s nagging him, but “nag” doesn’t really match current English slang. Might use “bossy”?)

Message to discord server with his “friends:” Game?

Text, Roar from work: Hi, Markus! This isn’t working, you have to call Christian tomorrow to explain what’s happening

K: What was that about? M: Nothing K: You sure? M: Yeah K: Okay. No! (Laughing) No. Stop, I’m in the middle of something

Markus: You vippset* 89kr kebab

Fredrik: Thanks! I didn't mean to assume that you guys were over, I just thought since you moved and all, but I haven't hear anything, I speak before I think. Sometimes I even write before I think. So yesh sorry

Markus: Don't sweat it.

Markus: I've never really chatted on Vipps before

Fredrik: To be honest it would be a good place to chat if you were cheating, because like my girl would never check here

Markus: Also practical if you're cheating with a prostitute, all the communication on one platform

Fredrik: Does one pay prostitutes through Vipps now a days ?

Markus: You know, I unfortunately don't know

Fredrik: I can do some research!

Markus: Haha, do it

*Vipps is a platform similar to venmo where you can send people money. Everyone, even the old generation uses it. So here vippset refers to someone venmoing money.

Gran Theft Auto [snapchat]

30.10.2019

Markus: [image of Elias with Markus’ head on top] image text: I’m voting on Elias as class pres*

Eirik: Who’s Elias?

Markus: [image of Elias]

Julian: Is he running this year?

Andreas: He’s a nice guy though 

Markus: He wants to change a bunch of Russeknots** so they’re more metoo-friendly 

Julian: So every Russeknot then?

Eirik: We removed a bunch of too, didn’t he think we did a good job?

Markus: Apparently not 

Eirik: He won’t win, nobody knows who he is right?

Julian: Going pretty hard on that Snapchat-filter though

Andreas: Yeah, you didn’t even lift  a finger to be elected Markus

Julian: What are you talking about? He took påbygg* to become Russepresident, fucking great effort (not sarcasm) 

Markus: Hahaha, you got me

Markus: Anybody wanna game?

Eirik: Can’t

*just a slang word for president here 

** knots you do to get different stuff in your Russelue (a hat). Could everything from walking on skis in the liquor store to taking doing 5-10 rounds in around-about, having sex in the woods, making out with 5 people of the same sex in one-night ect. 

* so påbygg is kinda hard to explain. So we’ve our regular high school where you go if you plan on attending university later on. But we also have“technical schools” or rather we call it yrkesfag. It just means you attend school for two years either planning to become an electrician, a hairdresser, multimedia, a sailor and a bunch of other lines ( job-wise). When those two years are complete one must be in practical training for 2 years, until you finally get a fagbrev which means you’re ready to start working an will get a full salary. If you, however, do want to attend uni after attending an yrkesfag-school you’ve to take a year påbygg. You’ve to take a year where all the necessary courses and hours are covered.

Only three or four people Then there is hope then What? (Laughing) No, I just think that Elias guy is a bit boring Okay? A bit boring, like… Not a party animal, at least No but… that’s good to show some accountability, etc. When you are the Russ president? He has a lot of good, sensible ideas Okay… Cool, what are his ideas? Umm Now I’m excited/intrigued* No… We talked, for example, yesterday that he would remove all of the worst Russ knots (dares/traditions). Just a good idea after #metoo He said that? Why are you laughing? Because he’s just saying these things to get people to sleep with him* Huh? So if guys care about equality, it’s just because they want to sleep with you? Yes Fuck, then there is zero hope. There are no good guys None? Then of course that sucks Maybe that says a little more about you Good point. That is a very very good point. That’s completely true You’re an idiot. He’s a good guy He’s a good guy, I agree. A super great guy. (pause) A guy who wants to sleep with you* Oh my god! Sleep with people a little bit* Okay

Karoline: Well take yesterday, we were talking about how he wants to remove the worst russeknots**. Just, just like after metoo and 

Markus: (laughs) Did he say that?

Karoline: Why are you laughing?

Markus: Because he’s only saying those things to get pussy***

Karoline: What?

Markus: Yeah

Karoline: So if boys care about equal rights and metoo and such, it’s only because they want to get in your pants?

Markus: Yes

Karoline: Fuck, then there’s no hope. Then-then there are no good guys at all. 

Markus: None. That’s- It sucks of course. 

Karoline: No. It might say more about you than him
