[Part 10: COUNT VON DUE'S MINUET]
I don't get it at all... The battery won't work.
It looks like you need a bigger battery here.
The elf didn't have a clue
what he was talking about.
But it has to work! He said that I'd
be able to move the satellite for dad!
But where will we get a rocket?
He said nothing about that.
This thing won't be able to fly up on its own, right?
That's true... But if we get the robot
to work, we'll at least make progress.
–Maybe we'll find a rocket later!
–I doubt that.
That elf was pretty shady. Elves usually
don't talk in plastic walkie-talkies.
He said he was sent by the real Santa
and had gotten our wish list, remember?
Maybe he stole Santa's e-mail. Or he's a
disguised hacker that wants to trick people.
Besides, did I get a sword?
Melitta... Oh, hi kids.
Are you up already?
We're trying to help with
the satellite, but it's difficult.
–Can't we talk about this another day?
–But we met a Christmas elf,
and he said that we would help you.
Don't you want help?
I do, but I just don't understand
how it's supposed to work!
All we need is a rocket to put Spark in,
and something that'll make Spark work.
Then he'll fly up into space and
move the satellite to the right position.
Maybe we could build a rocket!
Am I supposed to build a rocket?
I'll have you know...
Even if you took the biggest bomb and
put its ammunition in a straw like this...
You wouldn't even be able to send
an ant into stratosphere!
What are you screaming about?
–Fine, we're not helping you!
–Is he already awake?
–Melitta, Lillan, get here.
–Why?
Right, let's sing!
♫ Ja, må han leva, ja, må han leva,
♫ ja, må han leva uti hundrade år
♫ Ja, visst ska han leva,
♫ ja, visst ska han leva
♫ ja, visst ska han leva
♫ uti hundrade år!
♫ –Och när han har levat...
–Thanks, that's enough.
–A round of cheers for your 12th birthday!
–Hooray, hooray, hooray, hooray!
–I forgot it was your birthday.
–Don't worry about it.
Open it right now, Ivar dear!
–Don't I get any hard presents?
–Open it!
–It's for tonight! Guess who's coming for a visit?
–Oh no! Grandmother!
Listen: she has her quirks, but she is my
mother, so when she's here you have to be nice.
Bow, curtsy,
say "thank you" and "pardon"!
–She never remembers my name.
–And her mouth smells weird!
–And you have to wear stupid clothes!
–Ivar, one day you'll love wearing suits.
It's part of growing up
and becoming a man.
Red Hot Chili Peppers.
–Are you angry at him?
–No... It's a band.
–Band?
–We just wanted to wish you a happy birthday.
I hate my birthday.
I never get anything fun anyway, just
because Christmas comes right after. Look...
–Wow, stylish!
–Elegánte!
Nobody should be born in December!
–We brought a small gift as well!
–Oh, thanks!
When you came here you thought
it was playing on its own...
As if it was haunted!
–Grandmother's favourite song...
–Grandmother?
Yes, she's coming soon.
She's really annoying!
Everything has to be nice and neat,
just because she's from Falsterbo.
–Falsterbo?
–Yes, it's a fancy place.
She thinks everything has to
be nice and proper.
You can't even say that you've got stye,
or that a test went badly...
Or that Dad's been fired.
–Has your dad been fired?
–No, not yet.
–Ivar!
–She's here now. See you later.
–Ivar! What's her name? Your grandmother's?
–Anna-Britta. How so?
Well...
–What are you staring at?!
–Skirt chaser.
–Are you ready?
–Absolutely, let's get to it.
Great.
[To the tune of the Pippi Longstocking theme]
♫ Here comes our grandmother
♫ tjolahopp-tjolahej-tjolahoppsan-sa!
[To the tune of the Pippi Longstocking theme]
♫ Here comes our grandmother
♫ yes, she's really here!
–How nice.
–Yes, I wrote it myself...
It has a moat and everything! Completely
different from your old apartment...
And the name... It fits a count!
Astrid, you little châtelaine.
And here's Leif: the Count himself, I see.
And here's the birthday girl.
–Congratulations on your 9th birthday, Lillan!
–I'm not Lillan!
I am Lillan, did you forget?!
And it's my birthday; my name's Ivar!
–And I'm just 9.
–Yes, I'm 13, not 9!
–And I'm actually 15.
–Well, now I have to look around.
Oh, what a hall! Charmant!
But it is a bit outdated, of course.
–There's coffee!
–Now I have to take a look at the 2nd floor.
How depressing!
–And it's dusty, too.
–T-this is our guest room...
Whoops! Is it haunted?
A piano... You must play something for me.
You were so promising in your youth.
–Remember how my piano teacher fled the country?
–She didn't understand your talent. Now play for me.
–Alright, I'll play a little jingle.
–No, no!
Astrid, why did you have to
become a dentist? One more time!
–NO!
–Very well, then. Play something else, for once.
Oh... Here's an oldie!
The minuet of Count von Due.
–A minuet? Then the kids can dance along.
–I hate dancing.
Melitta!
Come on, dad.
Right... It's not exactly easy.
Look, it says how you should dance here!
First, take a small step backwards
to the right with your right foot.
Then quite a big step back
with your left foot...
Finally... Place your right foot...
–Anna-Britta... may I?
–What?!
–That's how you do it!
–Help!
–Anna-Britta?
–It's not me!
Mum, mum!
Jean! I knew it!
–What's that?
–Oh, it's "how to dance a minuet"!
–"First, take a small step backwards..."
–No, I mean this.
–That's odd. Looks like somebody drew a map.
–Let me see... It's the castle!
Look: here's the moat, here's the tower...
But what's that? A cross.
A cross? ... It has to be a treasure map.
Lillan, we've found a treasure map!
