Story
Peter Stormare and Peter Tägtgren are seen playing Chess in a space station. Stormare wins the game and Tägtgren angrily throws away the Chessboard. He goes to his bed and looks at a photo, the same that Stormare does. Stormare holds the photo to his chest. After that Till can be seen standing in his office, watching his female workers and smoking. He goes to his desk and gets out a photo of Loboda, who is then shown working in his factory. She stamps a date on a box and wants to lift it on to a carrier, when the bottom of the box breaks and all glass falls out and gets destroyed on the ground. Till gets angry and shouts at her in his office. As he gets closer he is trying to rape Loboda. She takes an ashtray and punches it against his forehead, which allows her to escape. Back in the space station Stormare and Tägtgren are in front of a snake behind glass. Stormare is drawin a picture of Tägtgren, who is himself checking some technical stuff. They get the message that the Engineer (Tägtgren) shuold leave the space station and return to Earth. The captain (Stormare) is told to stay. Till is seen going home, where he takes off his jacket, sits down, drinks beer and reads the newspaper. After reading for a while he spits all beer from his mouth onto the newspaper. Tägtgren is seen walking on Earth towards people of the press. He sees his girlfriend Loboda, who instantly hugs him. Stormare is seen on the space station. He is sad and starts drinking vodka. Till starts drinking his beer again. Stormare holds a family photo of Tägtgren, on which he replaced the head of Loboda with his own. Stormare and Till both get mad. Stormare hits the window of his space station, Till is angrily walking around in his room, hitting himself on the head, screaming. The postman knocks on Till's door and hands him a Telegram by Tägtgren: "DEAR BROTHER I CAME BACK. COME TO DINNER". After reading that, Tills gets ready to go to that dinner. As he arrives he greets all people at the table and immediatly starts eating. People ask about the wound on his forehead. After that Loboda is entering the room and sits next to Tägtgren, which leaves Till in a weird situation, as he also notices the green ash tray she used earlier to escape his rape. His wound starts bleeding again and he leaves the dinner to sit outside on a bench. He takes out a photo of Loboda and Tägtgren and rips it in half, to throw one half of the photo away. Stormare is walking by in his space outfit to stop and stare at Till. He sits next to him and sees that Till kept the half with Tägtgren on it. He gets jealous and punches Till in the face.
