Breeder

I don't like dogs.

I was bitten as a child.

I just don't trust them.

It's different with Karat.

On the good days, it's like we merge.

My will becomes his will.

His muscles become my strength.

We both know who's in charge.

But where do we draw the line?

How much can you get away with when you hold the reins?

How far can I push him to achieve my goals?

I have to believe that I know what's best for him.

But maybe all I really am is his jailer.

This is Thomas Lindberg. You aren't performing.

Why shouldn't I just move everything into an index fund?

No, it's not a threat. It's a fair question.

Well, call me back when you have an answer.

Our research shows that Resurrecta extends the telomeres -

and lowers the C-reactive protein.

The telomeres are the strands at the tip of the DNA, showing biological age.

Precisely. We turn back the clock, so to speak.

- Have you taken the cure? - Not yet.

For now, we only have a solution for male clients -

- and my DNA has rare stems, so it's not that easy in my case.

- Is Resurrecta a tablet? - No, it's a treatment complex.

Soon, our clients can be treated at our new facilities.

- Maybe we could look at some images? - Yes.

At the old sugar factory, we will create an exclusive treatment centre -

- with its own hotel for clients from all over the world.

Might we have a look at the lab?

We can't have journalists over there. I'm sorry.

Some would say that you're manipulating a natural process.

- There's nothing natural about ageing. - How so?

Ageing is a disease. A combination of various diseases.

Cancer, diabetes, cardiac problems. Old age is the disease -

- that prevents the body from fighting these issues.

Many would consider that an extreme stance.

What's your mother's name?

- Her name is Anna Maria Shack. - That's right. The painter.

She's a very gifted woman. She's, what, in her 60s now?

- Does she remember your name? - Is this interview about me now?

When you visit her, does she remember your name?

- How do you know about that? - I do my research too.

Dementia is horrifying, isn't it?

It's probably too late for your mother, unfortunately.

But maybe not for you.

Hi, Ruben. I just saw you on "Agenda". I'd like you to come by.

Thank you.

You're so cute!

- That baby suits you. - Hi, Ruben.

He's so cute. A sweet child.

- Hi! You have a sweet son. - She doesn't speak Danish.

The neighbour.

You have a strong pelvic floor. A true rider. You are 27?

- No, 32. - Women's fertility peaks at 16.

Could you tell Thomas that?

The next Olympics are in three years. It's perfect timing.

Fish oil, vitamin D and zinc. And double the dose.

Hi, honey.

It's going to be amazing.

We agreed not to make it public until I had closed the financing.

- We don't have the money. - This isn't about money.

It's about being first. This is groundbreaking.

If we wait too long -

- someone from China or Stanford will discover what I've discovered.

- Then it'll be too late. - The treatment hasn't been approved.

I'm just trying to generate some excitement, all right?

- Your trials are barely past phase one. - Yes, it's moving too slowly.

Do you know Peter Rosenthal-Haefner? This photo was taken last year.

This is what he looks like now.

- Is it photoshopped? - Google him. He looks like that now.

Men like him don't give a damn about the FDA and the Medicines Agency.

They want their lives back now.

If they can have that... Money won't be an issue, Thomas.

From now on, you'll follow the rules. Do nothing without my approval.

- Or what? - I'm the owner of the factory.

- I can bar you from your lab. - I see. Well...

I have 14 reasons you'd never do it.

14 reasons... That was very subtle.

I'm just playing the hand you dealt me.

- Just play by the rules, all right? - Fine. Whatever you say.

He is lucky to have you. You're very beautiful.

Could you tell him that? He's more likely to listen to you.

That's not how it works. First, show him the cookie jar.

Then tell him that he can't have any.

That's how it's always been with him.

What do you think? Is he good-looking?

- Who's that? - He works for Saltum.

They want to sponsor me.

Would you like to go out for dinner?

- I can't. I'm having dinner with him. - When will you be home?

I have to get up at 5 AM so I'll sleep in the guest room.

I don't mind an early wakeup.

I need my beauty sleep.

You're ruining my lipstick!

- Are you sure? - Yes.

- Thomas? - I can't do that.

But that's not true. What are you ashamed of?

I can give you anything you want.

- Except for one small thing. - "One small thing"?

- Don't leave during an argument. - Why have you become so fucking weird?

- Can she hear me? - No idea.

They use it to anaesthetise cows.

Get up!

Are you puking in my car?

- Can you wait until we get back? - It's easier when she's lying still.

- Turn the volume down. - Don't you like the music?

We can't go that way, the road's closed.

I told you. Pull over here.

Pull over. You have to turn around.

- Which way should I go? - Turn around and go back.

I didn't know the road was closed.

Looks aren't always the most important thing to women.

- Just be there for them in bed. - That's not working either, I'm afraid.

- I told you to start rapamycin years ago. - I know. I made a mistake.

It's an NDA. We can't discuss this further until you've signed it.

We are rather proud of our results.

- Isn't that Peter Rosenthal-Haefner? - I need to remove that photo.

- We have no names. Only numbers. - Like a Swiss bank account.

Yes. You could say that. Except you pay in crypto.

This is not a negotiation.

Well, the amount isn't that important. Sit down.

Open wide.

Your arm, please.

Can you tell me a little bit about the treatment?

- How is it done? - I can't reveal my methods.

- Is the lab in the other building? - Our capacity is limited here.

I have a long waiting list of clients who don't ask too many questions.

- I can't accept this conduct. - Fine. Then we'll stop here.

There you go.

Is it legal to write "doctor" when you're a vet?

It’s sold in 50 countries, so I guess it's fine.

Do you really think it works? Isn't it just bullshit?

- How old do you think Ruben is? - Early forties?

She's 61.

No way.

She hasn't aged a day in the ten years I've known her.

- Okay, give me some of that. - Nope. You're not interested.

What happened to you?

- I fell off Karat yesterday. - Is that really a bruise from a fall?

Yes.

- Ouch! - Does it hurt?

Yes.

- Ouch! Thomas. - Does it hurt?

Yes... Ouch!

Help! They're after me.

Thomas, bring a blanket!

Bring a blanket, dammit! She's cold.

They took me. They're after me.

- I can't! - Thomas! The blanket!

Don't touch me!

She's psychotic. I'll take her to the hospital.

We have to take her to the police.

- I'll go with you. - No. You stay here!

Hi, honey. Is everything okay?

And... come home soon, please?

What is this place?

This is not the hospital.

Hey!

Hey! What the hell are you doing?

No! No!

Her name is Nika. I don't know her last name. It's probably something Russian.

My husband drove her. Thomas Lindberg.

Maybe she has been registered in his name?

Could she be at another hospital?

Okay. Thank you.

SHE'S BEEN HOSPITALISED

Ruben?

- Ruben? - Sit down, Thomas.

Just sit down.

- Who was the man who took her? - He's just a caretaker I hired.

"The Dog". His assistant is "the Pig". They manage things around here.

- You said that the women volunteered. - That was the plan.

- But it just wasn't possible. - That's unacceptable!

- I told you it's just temporary. - Temporary?

You imprison women and experiment on them.

Look at me. How many are there?

I think about her every single day.

Don't worry. It won't be a problem for you.

- For me! What about Elly? - Of course.

Thomas...

You'll get through this. I'll help you.

Thomas. Don't sabotage this project.

Don't sabotage this! Thomas!

NO TRESPASSING

Fuck!

- Help me! - What?

What did you say? Huh?

Stop! Let go! Let go!

There, there.

Come here.

Damn!

Let's go.

Mia?

Mia?

- Hi, Thomas. - Where is she?

She's fine.

Take off your clothes.

Does Ruben know I'm here? I know her. Let me talk to her.

- Now. - Just do what you're told.
