Us Against You

Peter and Kira Andersson continue to face problems in communicating about their real concerns with one another. On the little island where she is camping with Ana, Maya thinks about her parents and their marriage. She realizes that the vocabulary of the family has started to shift, and she worries about them too. Meanwhile, Benji’s sister Adri meets with “the Pack” in the forest. The Pack is known as a local gang who take on responsibility for the ice hockey club. Spider and Teemu are feared throughout the community, but also respected. It’s unclear what they’re giving Adri in the forest or why, but they discuss Peter Andersson and Teemu says that if he didn’t think Peter could turn this misfortune around, Peter wouldn’t be around. Peter pauses at the door of his home (where Kira is waiting inside to test that pause) when he sees Richard Theo walking towards him. Theo tells him he has a chance of becoming a winner again.

Like his sister Maya, Leo Andersson has noticed the shift in his parent’s relationship. One morning he wakes up and everyone is out of the house, so he goes to Maya’s room to read her poetry.
