Especially Elisabeth.

Only if you don't tell on me.

And I want 50 kronor, too.

Hi. Sorry to bother you at this hour.

Well, nobody gets

to schedule an accident.

Hi...

Want to play some time soon?

I don't hang out

with Tina and Gisela anymore.

I'm pretty lonely.

Ola, hop in.

Don't tell anybody, all right?

Aren't you scared

when you're all alone at night?

A little... sometimes.

What are you scared of?

I'm afraid that our house

will burn down when I'm asleep.

And that I might breathe in

under water.

I'm afraid of going blind

and not being able to see.

What else are you afraid of?

Better Business Awards

Attention please...

I'm well aware of all the hard work

you've done, and I'm honored

to preside at the Better Business

Awards ceremony for three years running.

This year we have a category

for new service businesses,

so let's start with that.

Will this year's winner please

step forward:
Elisabeth Vretelid.

I really appreciate this.

I hope you'll enjoy your evening.

Have a great time! Thank you.

It's time for some entertainment.

Ladies and gentlemen, allow me

to introduce Kristina Vretelid,

or should I say... Agneta!

Go on...

No, I don't feel like it.

- Are you chicken? Are you?

- Stop it.

No...

No tickling!

- You can do it...

- Let go!

- I'll help you.

- Stop it!

- You can do it!

- Let go, stupid!

Hey...

Ola?

What are you doing?

An emergency landing.

- Are you alone?

- Yes.

- All alone?

- Yes.

Listen, I'd rather have lemonade,

if you have some.

- Where are your parents?

- In Africa.

But I can take care of myself.

Come here...

Burrs...

Hello, anybody home?

Everything looks so nice.

You're so big.

Where's Anna?

- Here.

- What a sunburn!

I know. Stupid of me, huh?

- Hi.

- Welcome home.

- Had a good trip?

- Yeah.

That's disgusting, what is it?

A spike-tailed lizard.

It's stuffed with sawdust.

- So that's where you are.

- Yes.

Nice...

Wow, look at these...

- Ola gave them to me.

- They're beautiful.

They're from a rusty blackbird.

- But they're green...

- Yes.

We missed you every single day.

Did you miss us?

No... not that much.

Good... That's good.
