- [In the hospital corridor, Elísabeth is showing a nurse a textbook that Lárus has written in when he was a child]
- Elísabet: He was such a creative child.
- [She sees Lárus coming down the hallway and continues gushing to the nurse]
- Elísabet: Look what I found. From when he was ten. Always dreaming up new things. We thought he'd be a writer.
- Lárus Skjaldarson: Elísabeth, what are you thinking? What do you want from me? Why am I here?
- Elísabet: I want you to be our son. Be here for us.
- Lárus Skjaldarson: You call me just as he's dying, and expect me to pretend that we're family.
- Elísabet: I don't understand why you hate us. I don't understand.
- Lárus Skjaldarson: [icily] I'll help you with the funeral. And then we are done.
- Lárus Skjaldarson: What are you reading?
- Benni: Hanzel and Gretel. The original version.
- Lárus Skjaldarson: Is that for kids?

- Lárus Skjaldarson: [slightly exasperated] OK.
- Anton: Lárus. Talk to me in my office?
- Lárus Skjaldarson: [shortly] No. I have nothing to hide. Talk to me.
- Anton: You haven't been performing in this job...
- Lárus Skjaldarson: You're firing me. I'll put that on the list. My wife didn't come home...
- Anton: She was with me. You can see the kids whenever you want. We have to think about the children.
- Lárus Skjaldarson: Anton, you're fucking my wife!
- Anton: Don't you think it's a coincidence that I got promoted while you're still stuck out here?
- [Annoyed, Lárus gets up out of his chair]
- Lárus Skjaldarson: Blah, blah, blah...
- [He starts off down the stairs]

- Elín: [in Icelandic] You have something big to work here.
- Lárus Skjaldarson: I'm trying to get to know these farmers. We're trying to get money, but you just keep talking and talking and talking...
- [Margrét has just had sex with Lárus, and during their pillow talk is asking him about his family]
- Lárus Skjaldarson: My parents were... They were never really there. It's no big deal. They were... They are from hell.

- [Lárus is dialling the phone. His father confronts him]
