What are Peter's plans?
Does he now it's me who runs the restaurant?

Go to hell!
- You're gonna quit advocacy?

Maybe I could be back managing the restaurant.
- What will Gustaf say?

With this agreement, you hand over
your share of the Djurgårdskällaren to me.

I never dreamed to sign such an agreement!

Those kids must be happy.
- They'll be if they want to.

Your addiction must be taken care of.
- What addiction?

Stop that, Nina!

What does it take to make you stop?!

Who votes for Margareta Nilsson
as new President?

You can only blame yourself!
Get your life straight before it's too late!

Let me introduce you
the new Djurgårdskällarens' deputy Chef!

Have you been seeing her again?
Nina.

I can't stop thinking about us...
I'll always love you.

Pick one.
Waiting will make things worse.

What's best for the restaurant
might be worse for my family.

Thanks for the photos
and cheers to the future.

Three things:
1. Gustav is no longer Director.

2. I will be.
3. I really missed this place.

Bow your chin a little bit, Mr. Löwander...
no, a bit higher... there!

I doesn't feel natural...
- You look great, Mr. Löwander! 1... 2... 3...

Perfect! Thanks.
- Come in.

The State Minister is here, if you're...
- Absolutely! We're done here.

Can we take a few pictures?
- We can ask Erlander about that.

What if we...
- One moment.

Prime Minister. Mr. and Mrs. Gahn.
It's a pleasure to see you again.

You mind if Vecko-Journalen takes a picture?
- Not at all, go ahead.

Thank you and have a lovely evening.
- Thank you.

Shall we continue in your office?
- One moment. Roos.

Löwander.
- You're coming down?

What's the problem?
- They're all over me like flies.

Fine, I'm coming.
- Good. Thanks.

5 years ago I went through
some sort of... crisis.

But Calle was always there
and eventually we got married.

I know... just a few minutes.

You still run the DK Club?
- Yes, along with my brother.

We have big plans for the future.

EPISODE 11
- CHRISTMAS PRESENT -

Stay right there.
Perfect!

Good.
- He's getting all dirty.

Hi.
- Hi.

I gotta check on my mother.

Hi.
- Hi.

I'm Ester... Peter's wife.
- Ah...

You can take pictures of Peter in his office.
I could be in it too.

It would have been great
but we already did that.

We have a beautiful story here
with Nina and Calle.

Yes it's beautiful indeed...

Mrs. Svensson!
- Mrs. Löwander...

I kept my family's last name,
it's easier this way.

You have your daughter around?
- She's in Skåne with her father.

When will she be back?
- She lives there.

She lives with her father.
- I also have a son from a previous marriage.

Ah... I see.

Mom?

Mom?

Hello?
Mom?

What happened?
- It hurts...

I'll call Dr. Boman.
- No... Peter...

I'll be right back.

Let's face it, I'm an awful mother.
- Nina, stop it. That's not true.

That's the conclusion she drew.

Is Christina coming for Christmas?
- Erik wouldn't say, as usual.

I miss her.

Nina, something happened to your mother.

I'm not going to the hospital.
- It's probably angina.

Sometimes I feel a pressure on my chest
but it always goes away.

Are these pains dangerous?
- Not per se, but...

...if they become frequent,
there's a risk of heart attack.

I'll get your coat.
- You can't force me to go.

I'll see you back tomorrow, Dr. Boman,
but for now I'll stay here and rest.

Alright then.

Thank you.

Mom, are you sure you're alright?
- Yes, yes...

Will you go get Gustaf?

# They shine over the lake and the beach,
the stars from far away. #

Margareta, are you allergic to the children's choir?
- It's beautiful.

Beautiful, they're so cute!

Can I have coffee instead of dessert?
- Of course.

This is Margareta Nilsson.
There's been a sort of a trade dispute here.

The PM remembers...
- You're still the union president?

Yes.

Svante Gahn, architect.
Britt Gahn, head of the women's association.

We're glad to have you here.
- Very nice of you.

More French fries!

Two Lyckholms?
- One Skåne too.

Do I know you?
- Maybe...

You used to sell coupons at the Djurgårdskällaren.
Did they catch you eventually?

I'll get your drinks.
- There's nothing to be ashamed of.

Gustaf.

What are you doing here?

Mom's not well,
you'd better go see her.

Now?
- It would be best.

Is it serious?
- Her life's not in danger but...

Then I don't have time.
- Mom asked for you, Gustaf.

I'm not guilty of anything.

Fuck...

What the hell...

My God, Helga! How are you?
- Much better.

I know a great cardiologist, Jerstad.
He'll take care of you.

Thanks but I'm going with Boman as usual.

Did you find him?
- Yes but he's not coming.

Why not?
- He's vey busy with his job.

How can he say that?
- He's actually working.

Can't we talk to him again tomorrow?

I don't want it this way.

Darling, can you leave me alone with Nina?

Of course.

Thanks for coming.
Come back.

Gustaf, come have a seat.

I'm very sorry I had been drinking.
- It's not about that.

I'm probably the luckiest restaurant owner
in Stockholm to have you here.

Thank you for saying that.
- Cheers.

I don't know how you do it.
There's another atmosphere since you came.

As dad used to say:
always smile and never show yourself in a bad mood.

Make them feel like
they're the most important people fo you.

Why didn't you stay at the DK?
- My own brother forced me to leave.

My mother took his side.
- Oh, well... it happens in the best families too.

I left my heart at the restaurant.
- Did you sell your share?

No, I still have it.

Then you're still a partner,
you're not a criminal after all!

Thanks, it's nice of you.

Cheers, Gustaf...
to a damn good restaurant manager!

So you wanna buy Oscarshof?
- Yes.

Where Gustaf is working?
- He'll be part of the business.

We buy the place and he's gonna run it.
- He's not gonna like it to work beneath you.

I heard it's not going well
so we can get a good price.

Gustaf will see it
as a declaration of war.

It's nothing like that.

I'm actually extending a hand to him.

Just hearing Bojan, who's been working
in restaurants for 100 years, say:

"You're a damn good restaurant manager".

I've never heard mom say something like that.
- It's just the way she is... but she knows.

I know.

I know, Astrid.

Good morning.

Margareta, someone called for you.
Gunnar Wegetoft.

He'd like you to contact him.
Here's the number.

We need more "rödkål".
- Hans-Erik, "rökt ål"!

Sorry... what was that?
- "Rökt ål", what are you waiting for?

Calle... we need more rödkål*
but the Chef heard "rökt ål"**.
(* red cabbage - ** smoked eel)

What do we do?
- Prepare both.

"Nina Löwander is the architect
behind the popular DK Club."

"An institution in Stockholm night life."

"Her husband, Carl Svenson, is a cook
and a rising star in the restaurant business."

I look so contrived.
- No, you're perfect.

And there...
- You look very handsome.

Plenty of photos of Nina and Calle.
- I'm in it too somewhere.

You got half a page.
There's 5 pages of Nina and Calle.

Nina talks about the restaurant.

"I got big plans", says Nina Löwander,
"I'm gonna set up a drink bar."

Did she mention it to you?
- It's not gonna happen.

Gun!

Karin is going to sleep.
Anitha, you can go too.

I'd like to be present
when you talk about the restaurant.

What for?

I know plenty about economy
and I've been in the business a long time.

I know, dear.
- Then what is wrong if I'm there too?

Nothing.

Such awful pictures!
- No...

Here you are with the Prime Minister.
"The restaurant manager, Peter Löwander".

What happened exactly, Dr. Boman?
- I spoke with a colleague, a heart specialist.

It seems you have a congenital defect
in your heart rate.

Have a seat, please.

I don't mean to scare you but... this defect
in combination with the angina can be very serious.

How serious exactly?
- Your life's at risk.

Therefore it's extremely important...

Gustaf, can we have a word?
- No, we're about to open.

It won't take long.
- Fine, one minute.

You don't ask how I'm feeling?
- How you're feeling?

Good, thanks... given the circumstances.

Dr. Boman gave me some
nitroglycerine tablets for my angina.

You're gonna spend Christmas Eve with the family?
- You already know the answer.

Gustaf... it's been almost 5 years.

We must be reunited sooner or later.
- Must we?

We're still a family.
- Not according to the Vecko-Journalen article.

Not one word about me.

You could come and stay for just one hour.

No, thanks, mom.
Your family Christmas dream is not gonna happen.

Will you at least think about it...
- Now I gotta start working.

You don't need to close tonight,
I'll do it.

Very well.

Was it everything to your liking?

A phone call for you.
It's Mr. Löwander.

We both said some very stupid things.

It's time we finally bury the hatchet.
A cooperation will be good for both of us.

As I said,
I got something I want to discuss with you.

But first...

The negatives are there too.
There are no more pictures.

DK is making profits
and they need to be invested.

And I find Oscarshof very interesting.

You're gonna buy Oscarshof?
Should I look for another job?

Not at all, Gustaf...
if we do this, we'll do it together.

You'll be in charge.
- What you mean by "in charge"?

You'll be the Director.
- Who's gonna have the final word?

On any important decision, the whole family,
as it's always been.

But it will be your project.

I'll think about it.

Rehnskiöld.
- Hi, it's Nina. How are you?

I'm good.

Have you thought about Christmas and Christina?

She'll spend Christmas here.

It's what she wants.

Erik, please...
I just wanna be able to see her.

You made your decision, Nina...
to leave both her and me.

I was ill... and I didn't want her
to be caught in a custody battle.

She's happy with you
and I'm grateful for that.

I just wanna see her.

I'll be in Stockholm short before Christmas.
I could take her with me.

Thanks, it means a lot to me.
Good. Bye.

I've been looking for you to say I'm sorry.

You're forgiven.
- I really mean it.

That doesn't change anything.

I've done you wrong,
how can I explain...

I was crushed, far from home...

I was living in a bubble,
the real world had disappeared.

Nevertheless I should have taken responsibility,
of course...

You have my forgiveness...
what else do you want?

What's his name?

Uno.

I wanna see him.
- No.

Margareta...
- No.

My wife and I cannot have children.

Uno is my only son.
- I was 20 when you got me pregnant!

And you made it very clear
I was gonna be alone in that!

We both needed you back then...
but now we're doing fine by ourselves.

Don't try to contact me or Uno again.

What a big mouth!

What a nice pair of ears too!

I bet you got a better hearing
than our Master Chef.

What was that?

What did you say?
- Sorry, it was a bad joke.

Keep it up and you'll soon
be needing another job!

Any more comments on the Chef's hearing
and you'll be out in the street!

Any questions?

Good.
Back to work.

What's this silence?
Did someone die? Besides this I mean...

This pork roll is gonna be
the best in history.

How's the brown cabbage going?
- Good. You'd like to taste?

Hi.
- Hi.

Gustaf said he's gonna think about it.
- Did he agree?

I explained we'll be together in it.
Let's give him a few days.

Oscarshof is losing money, therefore Gustaf
will be more safe with you as owners.

I don't think this concerns you.
- Ester kindly offered to help us.

Our spouses are not involved.
- I'm not taking any decisions but I've studied in Påhlmans...

You have no experience...
- When you were sick, I've been working here...

How disappointing for you I got back.
- If you let me talk, you'll see I have experience...

I think it's better
if we tone it down a bit.

Sorry, I'll be quiet.
- Be quiet somewhere else, this meeting is for owners only.

She has no business being here.
- She might be helpful.

You should have talked to us first.
- Maybe.

You should do the same
before speaking with the press.

A drink bar?
You think we're opening a beer hall?

You didn't back me up at all.
- No.

Listen...
- No.

Nina went too far but you did too.

You think I should keep out?
- Yes, I do.

Nina was right about something.
- What?

How would it be
if she hadn't come back?

We would manage just fine without her...
- I don't wanna listen!

No, because you don't wanna admit
you agree with me, right?

Technology is moving forward
even is toy shops windows.

Certainly, we're all still struggling
to find the right Christmas gift we can exchange...

Come!

Always at the last minute!
- Calm down, I'll handle it.

But your work...
- I said I'll handle it.

Don't forget the ribbon.

Hi.
- Hi.

Hi, Christina!
- Good morning.

Yes... thank you.

Erik told me your favorite subject
in school is natural science.

So I thought you will find this very interesting.

Have you ever been here?
- No.

Look what a nice bear!

How's going at school?
- Good.

You got a best friend?
- Yes.

What's her name?
- Ellen.

I got a Christmas gift for you at home.
Can I give it to you in advance?

What's wrong?
- Nothing.

Did you see Lilly and Torun's Christmas card?
- Yes. Is she coming over.

I don't think so.

Do you see her around?
- Sometimes.

See you later.

What are you doing?
- I was gonna grill them.

It's gotta be aspic,
don't you know that?!

I'm sorry...
- This was supposed to be aspic...

I asked you if I should grill it...
- Is it my fault?

No... sorry.

You can go home, Hans-Erik.
You're fired.

You got a minute, Chef?
- What now?

If we could talk in your office...
- Fine, let's go.

So?
- I'd like Hans-Erik to stay.

What for?
- We have a Christmas dinner, we need him.

He lied straight to my face!
Should I let it go?

Your hearing loss
it's starting to become a problem.

I know.

We can always speak louder
and repeat things...

It sucks being treated like an old man.

You can stay.
- Thank you very much!

Go on like nothing happened.

You know what it is?
They're plastic cubes to build things.

Like Meccano but made of plastic.

Let's see...

How's the little one?
- Ove? He's fine.

He's into elves right now.

You and Nina?
- We're good.

Are you planning a baby?
- We do what we can.

You need help brushing?
- I'm done.

Let me see.

Looks good on you.
- Thanks. Goodnight.

Goodnight.
A hug?

I promised dad I'd call and say goodnight.
- Of course, the phone is in the living room.

You know how to call from Stockholm?
- Yes.

Rehnskiöld.
- Hi, dad. It's me.

Hi, love. How's going?
- I'm about to go to bed.

Dad, can you come pick me up?

Not right now.
- It's not fun at all here.

Is mom drinking?
- No. Drink what?

What did you do today?
- We went to the museum.

No.
Please, dad, come pick me up.

I'll be there tomorrow morning.
Go to bed now.

Goodnight.

Good evening.
- Evening. You have a reservation?

Yes. Henriette Winter.

Here it is.
Are you with someone?

No, you could be my date.
- I'll do my best.

I've read about DK on the Vecko-Journalen.
It seems very popular.

Right here.
- Thanks.

Any celebrities around?
Politicians? Someone from the royal family?

No royalty.
Sorry, Mrs. Winter.

Miss Winter...
I haven't met the right man yet.

In fact, I met so many
I couldn't pick one.

Anything to drink?
- Yes, I'll have a Kaiser Franz.

I'm not familiar with that.

Much cognac and more champagne.
I'm sure you can do that.

I'll do my best.

Is she asleep?
- Yes.

What's wrong?
- She wants to go home.

You don't know that.
- She told Erik on the phone.

It's all new to her.
She'd never stayed for the night.

She doesn't need me.
- Of course she does.

Maybe she doesn't know it now
but she'll understand.

Dad!
- Hi, love!

Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas. Christina...

It was nice having you here.

You mean so much to me,
I hope you'll be back soon.

Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

Excellent.
I'll call you.

Merry Christmas, of course.
Thanks. Bye.

Can you pass the cinnamon?
- Yes.

Who was that?
- Just business.

Grandma invited us over as usual.
I thought we could drop by.

Just a couple of hours.
What do you say?

You know I'd love to.
- It's fine for me.

We're going then.

When are they coming?
- Two o'clock.

Two??
How we're gonna keep everything hot?!

The same discussion every year.
You'll be fine this time too.

Löwander house.
- Hi, mom. We'll do it.

You're coming?

Thanks, Gustaf!

Gustaf... this means a lot to me.

I'll see you then.
Bye.

This is gonna stay warm...

What is it?

They're coming.
- It's nothing to cry about.

I'm crying 'cause I'm happy!
Never mind...

And stop talking about warming up food!
It'll be easier if you just stay with us.

I'm not staying for dinner!

What you gotta do that's so important?
You're gonna meet someone?

No... and it's none of your business!
- I was just asking.

Can't I have some peace
at least for Christmas Eve?

Ready?

Do I have to wear this?
- It's perfect.

What's this?
- Sit down.

For you.
- A Christmas present already?

I couldn't wait.
- Ok.

I wonder...

What's this?

For real?

Are you happy?
- So happy.

See if grandma's here.
- Here's the kids!

Welcome! Merry Christmas!
- Ischoklad.*
(* "ice chocolate")

Thanks, Anita!
Merry Christmas, Peter.

Merry Christmas.
- I made 'em myself.

You got the ginger bread?
You want your puppet?

How are you, Helga?
- Fine, thanks.

Any more attacks?
- The nitroglycerine seems to work.

Good.

I'm sorry about my behavior
the other day.

Forget about it.
- I said things I shouldn't have said.

I care a lot about the restaurant.
- I know, Ester.

Say merry Christmas to uncle Calle.

Merry Christmas!
- Merry Christmas, mom!

Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

What did you get for Christmas?
- Puppets and Lego.

Welcome!
- Merry Christmas, mom.

Gustaf, I'm so glad you could come.
You too, Astrid.

Merry Christmas, Gustaf.
- Merry Christmas, Peter.

The whole tree is lit.

Thanks.
- Ivar Lo-Johansson?

Yes. Before turning 15,
I wanna read all the major proletarian writers.

Thanks, mom.
- You're welcome.

Where are you going?
- I'm gonna see Christer.

He's so cute... reading proletarian writers.

He's growing up.
- He is.

Where are we gonna celebrate next Christmas?
- In a better apartment.

I'm too old to move.
Just toss me in the garbage.

You'll get a new apartment
in a nice neighborhood.

Also a safe subway.

Does Uno know the house will be demolished?
- He knew before me.

He's got his head on straight,
nothing gets past him.

How you're doing?

Uno's father wants to see him.

I didn't tell Uno.

Dad didn't tell me about Johansson.

You're going to bed?

You should tell her.
- Maybe some other day.

They had their talks.

My dear family...

I'm so glad we can be together tonight.

It really means a lot to me.

I hope this can be a new beginning
for our family.

Cheers and Merry Christmas.
- Cheers and Merry Christmas!

Yes...

Thanks, mom.
Great words.

Family is important.
It can be a great asset... until it turns against one.

I see why it was so important
that we were all here tonight.

This is obviously about Oscarshof.

Some say it was luck
when the Djurgårdskällaren survived.

Gustaf, please...
- You betrayed me.

Gustaf, please...
- It's not the right moment.

I know how it's gonna go with Oscarshof.
It's all planned.

If I object, I'll be kicked out...
but you won't get anything!

I'm going to buy Oscarshof myself.

To get the money, I sold my part
of the Djurgårdskällaren. Merry Christmas.

You can't sell to someone outside the family!
- That's exactly what I did.

A Danish woman, Henriette Winter.

So... this is all.

We'll be leaving.

Sorry.
