- You're carrying my child. - Who says it's yours?
- Who else's could it be? - Hjalmar's.
You have no life, if you hide it.
Our engagement will end in Copenhagen.
What happened with Poul and that girl?
Julius tried to get together with her and said that Poul had agreed to it.
Next day, she had left.
- Damgaard is back. - With his wife.
- Don't you want first refusal? - It's not the best for you.
- We would like to buy now. - Buy the hotel now?
Nothing will change for you.
Mrs Andersen is not the right one to run that hotel.

SEASIDE HOTEL
Is it you?
- Where did you get that? - I bought it.
- Isn't that expensive? - Not too bad. Jump on.
- No, thanks. - Won't you come over?
- I need to take that back. - Just for a bit?
- Your clothes are full of dirt. - I could take them off.
Won't you come?
They're waiting for me.
- When you have a break? - Maybe.
We can go for a ride.
You'll never get me up on there.
That'll be 1,60.
You can go up and eat, Mrs Sørensen.
- Has Mrs Andersen called? - I'll let you know when she does.
It's almost a week ago. I think she's rude.
- Didn't she need money? - Yes, and I agreed to lend her some.
Mrs Andersen might find it a bit odd that we now want to buy it all.
Merchant House. Hello, Mrs Andersen.
- We were just talking about you. - I'm sorry about the delay.
Just take your time. It's a big decision.
I'm very grateful for your offer to lend me money and to buy, -
- but I would prefer to borrow and give you first refusal, as we agreed.
Would you prefer to borrow?
Excuse me for a second. There's a customer I need to talk to.
- Tell her we want to buy. - But I promised her...
Tell her you've changed your mind and need to invest in something else.
- I can't do that, Regine. - Of course you can't.
My sister has a car and a big house. Her husband gives her everything.
But if I ask for the smallest thing, your promises are more important.
Hello? I'm sorry about that.
We've had some changes here, since we last spoke.
- Mrs Andersen is going to sell. - Why do think that?
- She spoke to Damgaard. - About borrowing the money?
- No, selling. - You can ask her yourself.
Have a look at this, Fie. This is Poul's company in America.
- Is Harding the one selling? - Yes.
- Will it be "Poul Andersen" now? - Maybe. We'll see.
- I better write that letter. - Yes, you do that, Poul.
Edith says you're selling.
Damgaard won't lend me the money and Poul needs an answer now.
He had a telegram. If he wants the company, he has to buy it now.
Is his company in America more important than your hotel?
I've never really thought of this as my hotel.
You're upset, Fie. Don't be.
Damgaard has promised that everything will be as before.
Excuse me, but I would really appreciate it-
- if Mr Weyse could decide whether he's coming back or not.
- Mr Weyse? - Adam needs the room.
I believe he'll be back. Have you heard otherwise, Fie?
- No. - Then he'll have to stay with us.
Edith will sort that out in a minute.
I can go home when your son comes.
Don't be silly, Lydia. Who would I play bridge with then?
- Mrs Andersen has to sell. - Why is that?
Damgaard won't lend her the money and Poul wanted an answer now.
- Do the guests know? - They don't care.
All they think about is Adam Fjeldsø.
- When is he coming? - Today. And he'll be staying.
The family is gathered.
I hoped he could have Mr Weyse's room.
He's in Skiveren with that singer, Dagny Olsen.
I think they know that, Lydia.
His things are here, so he'll probably be back.
Are you talking about Mr Weyse?
Mrs Fjeldsø would like his room for her son.
- Won't he be back? - That's the question.
We've been betting whether Dagny Olsen will be number four.
- You did the betting. - Number four?
- Wife number four. - Has he been married so many times?
- Last year, his third wife was here. - Sibylle. Pretty girl.
- It was a mistake picking him. - Actors are interesting.
- In what way? - In what way...
- In what way are they interesting? - They are...
Is seducing one girl after another what you find interesting, Lydia?
Miss Edith? Can we have the bed sorted out?
I'll just do the post. There's a letter for you.
Then bring it with you, child!
She doesn't mean it. She's worried that Adam hasn't found a nice girl.
- That's a shame for her. - Marriage doesn't work for all.
You've got a point there.
Nobody saw me.
"Gold and fire form my thoughts."
"Why do you feel fear?"
"Flowers grow behind your breasts."
"You smell of apples and eternity."
- What are you reading? - Jens August Schade.
He's writing about you.
- Do I smell of apples and eternity? - Yes, you do.
Have you got flowers growing behind your breasts?
- I read the book you lent me. - Broby Johansen? Did you like it?
- He can't rhyme, either. - They just don't want to.
- Why not? - It's been done for years and years.
- We're living in a new age. - What about eternity then?
- I'll try here. - That's my dad!
- He mustn't see me here! - Does it matter?
- Is count Ditmar here? - No, I haven't seen him since lunch.
Mrs Fjeldsø's son is coming and they're short on rooms.
If you're leaving, please let them know.
I will. If I choose to leave.
- Did he see me? - He would have knocked down the door.
I think he wants me to leave. That's fine, if you come with me.
- I can't. I promised Ditmar... ...to stay engaged here. Why?
I can't say. I told you that.
Amanda, what is it with you and Ditmar?
He is...
He is more interested in Mr Dupont.
Pardon?
He's more interested in Mr Dupont than me.
- How? - What do you think?
Is Ditmar?
But Philip...
He won't get far there.
Then there's a lot you don't know about your friend.
There you are, Ditmar.
It's me holding up count Ditmar, while I'm waiting for my wife.
We're going out, but it seems she's having trouble gathering the crew.
Can I offer you a drink?
- Miss? - What are we celebrating?
I've just done a little deal.
Champagne! The coldest in the house.
Gentlemen...
- Did you take Amanda to the beach? - We'll go this afternoon.
- Good. - I spoke to the contractor in Skagen.
I told him we've got the building permit.
How about that, Frigh? Quite a son-in-law.
He almost took on another job, but I put a stop to that.
He just wanted it put on paper.
I told him we haven't bought the land for the road yet.
That's just a formality.
We need to hold on to that contractor.
Yes, it's a lot of money, if it goes wrong.
You go and deliver this now.
Then you go over to the stubborn fools and buy the land.
- For the price they're asking? - Start off lower.
It's important to get started. We've waited a year for this.
Let's hear about your little deal.
- Where are you going? - On Morten's new motorbike.
He won't get me up on there.
Mr Madsen has earned 10.000 kroner in a week.
He's drinking champagne with Mr Frigh.
- You must have got that wrong. - I didn't.
- You can't earn that much in a week. - I think it was shares in America.
Mrs Andersen could ask Mr Madsen to lend her the money.
I asked her. She won't hear any of it.
Mrs Andersen says we can go swimming.
- Would Damgaard allow that? - They said nothing will change.
Apart from the fact that they own the hotel.
I don't know what they are, but I think Adam will be pleased.
- You're pale. Do you feel sick? - I'm fine.
Haven't they brought the bed up yet?
- They took it away again. - Why?
- Adam's not coming. - Isn't he? How do you know?
Was the letter from him?
What does he say?
It doesn't matter.
He made choices which I apparently didn't have to get involved in.
Which choices? Olga, what do you mean?
Which choices, Olga?
- Do you like it? - What? I can't hear you.
- When are you moving home? - I don't know.
You could move in with me in Frederikshavn.
- Weren't you buying your dad's house? - Maybe.
- I earn more in Frederikshavn. - I can tell.
I didn't know you could earn that much from fishing.
Is this where Mr Madsen is building holiday homes?
Yes, but he has to get the neighbours to agree.
Agree about what?
He can only build with an access road.
So he has to buy the land?
- That'll be expensive. - They can't agree on the price.
Mrs Andersen is going to sell the hotel.
Apparently, Poul needs the money now.
- Did you give him Johanne's address? - No.
- Why not? - I don't want to help him.
I don't know if she's still there. It was eight years ago.
Have you started smoking? Are they German?
- Yes. - Have you been to Germany?
- Sometimes we go there. - What do you catch there?
We catch cigarettes.
Come on. Let's see if Johanne is still there.
He told my sister that he made choices-
- which he didn't want her involved in.
- Will he be staying at the institute? - She's devastated.
- Did you read the letter? - You can't do that.
I wouldn't dare.
But you do want to, don't you?
I thought you were waiting downstairs.
I spoke to miss Vetterstrøm. Adam isn't coming.
Poor Mrs Fjeldsø. She was looking forward to it.
- Are you listening? - Pardon?
You'll never catch me!
- All we need is Miss Malling. - I'm here.
- Shall we go, Otto? - I'm expecting a call.
Miss Malling, can you wait down there?
Yes.
- Who's calling you? - My broker.
I'm buying shares in America like Mr Madsen.
Shares in America?
A company called Goldman Sachs has an investment trust-
- buying shares in 500 companies. They spread the risk.
- I don't understand. - You don't have to.
Madsen earned a fortune in a week.
It's stupid not to do it.
Do you know what's more stupid? Thinking you'd spend a day with us.
I can do that. He might call in a minute.
Olga?
Are you asleep?
- Did you sleep? - What are you doing?
I'm reading.
- Are we going down there? - Let me just finish.
- While there's still some sun. - Just wait out there.
- Wait out here? - Yes, please.
- Why so secretive? - Secretive is your thing.
Amanda told me about you and Ditmar.
"Amanda"?
- Is Miss Madsen now "Amanda"? - We're talking about you.
If Madsen finds out you're involved with his daughter, you'll be out.
I don't care.
Why have you never told me that you are?
That I'm what?
Homosexual.
- I thought you knew. - How? We've been chasing girls.
- You did. - What about the two Swedes?
- They came to the hotel. - I talked all night to one of them.
- We still correspond. - Do you? Great.
- Is it a problem for you, Max? - No.
- It sounds like it is. - You could have told me.
Yes.
I have now.
Let's go swimming.
Philip?
What about you and Ditmar?
He tells himself he's not like that.
It's all about father-in-law's money. The estate relies on the engagement.
But you're about to ruin that.
- Are you going swimming? - Yes.
Amanda? Are you coming?
- I'm here, Dad. - Mrs Madsen?
Go on. I'll be there in a minute.
He got married. Mr Fjeldsø got married.
- Really? - That's all I saw. My sister woke up.
- You read the letter? - That's understandable.
Just imagine! Mr Fjeldsø married.
- His mum should be glad. - That's what I said.
- That's what Mrs Fjeldsø wanted. - Olga has a problem with Swedes.
She doesn't understand what they're saying.
I find it easy.
I've been there a lot because of Swedenborg.
- Is she Swedish? - No, Swedenborg is a man.
- No, I mean Adam Fjeldsø's wife. - I guess so.
- They got married up there. - I wish you'd read a bit more...
I know you've been trying to find Johanne.
Morten and I heard about an address and went out there.
- But she wasn't there any more. - It doesn't matter.
They were pretty sure she's working for shipowner Holm in Skagen now.
This is the address, if you're interested.
Thank you.
Mrs Sørensen, you can have your coffee now.
I wish I could choose my staff's breaks.
- My sister saw an advert. - What advert?
The one the hotel did before the season started.
All the guests are mentioned. Including the actor Edward Weyse.
When we take over, I want to sit at the table.
Then Mrs Andersen could stay in the kitchen.
We've discussed that. She and the girls will have to leave.
We promised Mrs Andersen that everything would be as before.
I don't want Mrs Andersen telling me how to run the hotel.
- I want to do it my way. - We should have told her.
Then she wouldn't have agreed to sell.
- I'll get that advert. - Now?
It's dinnertime soon.
- Did you say that Adam isn't coming? - Yes.
They're all asking why, but you haven't told me anything.
- Haven't you read the letter? - I wouldn't dream of it.
- You can tell them he got married. - Married? You don't say!
She's pretty. It doesn't matter that she's Swedish.
If only she had been Swedish. It's Mrs Weyse.
- Mrs? - Edward Weyse's ex-wife.
They both look very happy.
There's one more picture.
A child? Where did that come from?
I wonder...
- Is that? - Mr Weyse's child.
How can I meet the guests after this?
Is it so bad? Adam has a beautiful wife-
- and an adorable child.
Then I think you should read the rest.
- Guess who went on the motorbike. - What was it like?
- It was fine. - You liked it. I can tell.
- Isn't it fast? - That's the funny part.
- Have you tried it, Martha? - No, but I think so.
Mrs Andersen spoke to Damgaard. They're signing the deal tomorrow.
- Already? - Why the rush?
They're afraid she'll change her mind.
- I don't think she will. - No.
- We have to serve them coffee. - Let's drop it in Mrs Damgaard's lap.
- Or all over the papers. - Now that you say that...
If we waste the coffee all over the papers-
- the deal won't come off.
That's the most stupid thing you've ever said.
- You can't do that. - I'd still like to do it.
I told you, Cornelia. Lots of posh people.
- All the years they've been coming. - I did read the advert, Regine.
- You can cut the cake now. - Where was it?
- Berlingske Tidende. - I told Torsten to get that one.
What good would a Copenhagen newspaper do you?
We're buying a hotel, so we need to know what's happening in Copenhagen.
Didn't you say it was an investment and that Mrs Andersen would run it?
What will your involvement with the guests be?
That'll be all, Johanne.
I want to run the hotel. The guests need a host with culture.
- Will you run it with Mrs Andersen? - God, no! Mrs Andersen is out.
So are her girls. I'll get my girls from Læsø in.
- Does Mrs Andersen know? - No, not yet.
And neither do you.
Somebody gave me your address, so I just wanted to say hello.
I've thought a lot about you.
I'm sorry we didn't say goodbye properly-
- and that I didn't tell you...
"Tell me"?
What is there to tell?
Your father came in, when I was asleep, and you let him do it.
How could you think that, Johanne? How could you think that about me?
I've been searching for you, but couldn't find you.
I live in America now. I'm here, because Dad died last year.
- Johanne! - I have to go.
I'm getting married in August.
Johanne!
- Didn't you hear me? - I'm sorry.
My sister would like more cake.
I did what you said. Goldman Sachs.
The best shares are cars, planes and radio.
- That's the future. Cheers! - Cheers to Poul Andersen.
Without him, we wouldn't have known.
I wonder why he doesn't buy shares.
He's not cut out for that.
- Imagine growing up here. - Yes.
- Your son-in-law is back. - Let's hear how it went.
- The contractor is sorted. - That's my boy.
But the price for the road has gone up again.
- They know we need it. - Let them sweat for a couple of days.
They can't sell it to others. Those peasants are not cheating me.
- Adam Fjeldsø wants to be a Jew. - Isn't he from Copenhagen?
- Not a Jutlander. A Jew. - Why is that?
- He married Sibylle Weyse. - He did what?
- In Stockholm. - They want to marry in the synagogue.
That calls for both of them being Jews
- Who's Jewish? - Mrs Weyse.
I didn't notice, when she was married to Weyse.
Mr Fjeldsø is serious about it.
Adam's going to study Hebrew and have classes with a Rabbi.
Have a look at the picture. They're cute.
- That's Sara. - That's Weyse's daughter.
- She's part of the package. - What a funny way to put that.
- It's not his own child. - Why is that so important?
- Good evening, Mr Weyse. - Hide the photograph!
Hello there!
- I thought you had left. - No, it was just a little trip.
- Did you visit Dagny Olsen? - Yes. She's doing better.
Poor child. It's painful going through a divorce.
I do speak out of experience.
Oops! You dropped something. Let me.
What's this?
What is this?
Fjeldsø got married.
With Sibylle?
They got married in Stockholm.
How wonderful for her.
Quite wonderful.
- Your daughter looks lovely. - Doesn't she?
- Yes. - Pretty.
- Are you coming? - I don't want to.
- Your parents would like it. - I'm sure they would.
Couldn't we appear to be engaged?
Yes, but not now. Tell them I've got a headache.
Your actions with Mr Berggren are very careless.
- What are you talking about? - Mr Dupont just told me.
Can't you forgive that little mistake?
- I'm not like that! - Ditmar, let me go, please.
Do you love him?
Yes.
Do you know what breaking off the engagement means?
Your father will find out.
I'm finished. All the money my parents borrowed from him...
Amanda, if we get married, you can live exactly how you want.
I will never ask questions.
- You're up. - Have you told them everything?
- Yes, like you asked me to. - And about Adam's new religion?
They were very good about it.
And Mr Aurland did actually know what brit milah was.
You know, the Jewish ritual that Adam is undertaking.
But Mr Aurland thought they only did that to newborn boys.
Olga...
Olga, even if life doesn't turn out as expected-
- it can still be very beautiful.
You just need to be able to see it.
- Good evening. - Good evening.
- We're very invisible here... - Lovely, isn't it?
Playing with fire.
We'll do that somewhere else.
Ditmar is afraid of what might happen when we break up.
That my dad will cut off him and his parents.
He suggested we got married. I could live my life as I wanted.
That's not bad. You'll be a countess and looked after.
That's freedom.
- Do you think I should do it? - You feel sorry for Ditmar.
Yes, but that's no reason to get married.
Is marriage so important?
Isn't that just an old convention?
I don't believe in it.
Will you never marry?
I don't find it important.
- What if I do? - But you don't.
Why are you so upset, Helene?
I just said that Mr Fjeldsø will be taking over Mr Weyse's child.
- You made it sound like a problem. - Apparently not for Mr Fjeldsø.
- Would it be for you? - Why these hypothetical questions?
- I just want to hear your opinion. - All right.
I probably wouldn't be able to do that.
- Aren't you going to bed? - No, I think I'll go for a walk.
I'll be quiet when I come back.
- Are you sitting here all alone? - Yes.
They've all left me.
And my daughter has got herself a new dad.
A pattern is beginning to emerge.
Have you told your dear husband that you're pregnant?
I can't.
What then?
Have you only got the truth left?
I miss you.
Here you go, Mrs Andersen.
It says we're taking over the hotel fully furnished.
We've asked the lawyer to include Mr Gottlieb's price.
That's quite a lot more than the valuation you had done.
That's nice of you.
But of course.
The down payment figure is there.
The rest will be paid out in deeds.
You'll be well off, Mrs Andersen.
Yes, well...
It all looks very good.
Torsten, show Mrs Andersen where to sign.
- Right there. - Mrs Andersen needs a pen.
- There you go, Mrs Andersen. - Thank you.
- Where was it? - Right there.
- I've got coffee. - Just put it there, Edith.
There you go. Let me do it.
- Thank you. I'll pour. - Don't worry, I'll do that.
There you go.
We'll drink the coffee first.
Thank you, Edith.
- Please help yourselves. - It looks lovely.
- Shall I take the tray? - Yes, please.
You've got a guest, Mr Andersen.
Johanne?
You don't have to go. It's just a quick message.
I know that Damgaard is buying the hotel.
His wife is Mrs Holm's sister. She came by yesterday.
Mrs Holm told her husband this morning.
Mrs Damgaard wants to get rid of both Mrs Andersen and the girls.
They're signing the papers right now.
Wait here.
Thank you.
TO POUL LOVING YOU FOREVER
Thank you for the coffee.
Torsten, the pen.
It was down here...
- Is it you, Poul? - Yes.
I just wanted to say hello.
- This is Julius' son. - Hello, Mr Andersen.
- We're about to buy the hotel. - With no changes, I understand.
- Will Molly be running it? - Yes, that's the plan.
- For how many years? - We haven't gone into details.
Shouldn't that be on paper? So you all know where you stand.
Molly runs it. She has final call on everything. Including staff.
We can sort that out with Mrs Andersen.
What do you think, Mr Damgaard? Would it be a problem adding that?
No, if Mrs Andersen finds that necessary...
Mrs Andersen hasn't mentioned that.
- Is it a problem for you? - No, why should it be?
It just seems like unnecessary distrust.
I don't think that was Poul's intention.
But it might be practical to put our agreement on paper.
You forget that it's us helping you and not the other way around.
I do appreciate that.
Do you think we need the hotel? We don't!
Shall we just pay and not have any say in the running of the hotel?
And what about if we wanted to run it one day?
Do you think I'm impressed with how it's run? I'm not.
That girl with the coffee... That wouldn't happen with my girls.
Regine, be quiet!
You just put up with it! You're happy doing business with peasants!
- What do we do now, Poul? - I don't know.
But it won't be like this.
Excuse me. I just need to...
- Johanne is up there. - Johanne?
Is she here?
