Patrik Eriksson: There's something about me that triggers bad things.
Göran Skoogh: Patrik...
Patrik Eriksson: It's true! It's been that way since Ma died right in front of me.
Göran Skoogh: [incredulously] Were you there when she died?
Patrik Eriksson: Me and the dog, they say. She had set out juice and crackers, and then she died. She'd been dead for 24 hours by the time they found us. We ate up all the crackers. Good thing she put out those crackers. They put the dog down, you know. Nobody to take care of it. Nobody to take care of me, either, but they couldn't very well kill me, even if they wanted to.
