[Part 24:
CHRISTMAS AT GREVEHOLM]

Måns!

Merry Chrithmas!
I've really mithed you!

Ew! What's happened to your tongue?
It's all gooey!

Oh, that's from all of the stamps
at the office.

–Try it out yourself.
–No, thanks!

–Have you gotten any ghost pics?
–Tons. It went really well.

–Are they scary?
–Not at all! Come on, I'll let you meet them.

–We've become friends!
–You became friends? You're kidding me!

No, it's true. See for yourself...
My grandma's here, too.

–So you're sure that the house isn't haunted?
–Of course, Anna-Britta. Ghosts don't exist.



Grandmother, this is Måns.
He's a paper boy.

Oh. That can't pay well.

Grandma...

You shouldn't marry whoever you find
first, you know that.

Oh, somebody else also decided to settle down
too early. What's your job, dear?

–Do you also work at the paper?
–No, I just travel to various places in space.

–Well, Dioda is going home after dinner.
–That would be nice.

How do I look?

Fantastic! At least to near sighted people.

Hey, do you think this wig fits me?

Don't you think that that grandmother
would be interested in...

a somewhat older gentleman with a fez?

–What? Is a gentleman with a fez coming?
–Staffan! He's right here.

–Incredible! You almost look alive!
–Yes. Strange, isn't it?



Are you done? Grandmother is
getting a bit impatient.

Certainly, we're coming!

How do I look? Does it fit?

–There.
–Good.

Fantastic! You don't look older than 50.

And Grandmother's about as near sighted
as me, so she won't notice anything.

Wait a minute.

Just to be on the safe side.
You never know with Grandmother.

Perhaps she'll get new classes for Christmas
and will start seeing things!

"Parfaitement! On y va."

Right, everyone! This is Jean and
Staffan... Sorry, Stefanie.

Good day, my name is Anna-Britta.

It's a pleasure.

Oh, a real gentleman!

Indeed, here in the flesh.
Merry Christmas to all!

Merry Christmas!

And this is Måns. You have
met before, I think.

Yes, the magazine you hand out
is a fine one. Keep it up!

–Now I want to eat the Christmas dinner.
–Oh, Leif! Don't mind him, he drank some wine already.

The table's ready!

Oh, and kids: you get to drink as much soda
as you want... As long as you brush your teeth later!

–May I?
–Naturally.

You've prepared a lot! Herring,
meatballs, sausage, ham...

–Do we have cheesecake too?
–Sure thing!

Like my dad used to say:
You may be poor, but not stingy. Cheers!

Cheers!

I would just like to say a few words.

December at Greveholm. I think
we can all agree that it has been...

–Been...
–Wonderful.

So we should think about the castle's owners,
who allowed us to rent it today.

Thank you very much. We would say that
it has been our pleasure that you came.

But you don't own the castle, right?
Ivar, there were some other people who...

Mum... They were robbers.
They tricked us.

Oh my god, that was dangerous!

Indeed!

However, since we are the righteous owners,
there is nothing to worry about.

On the contrary, it's absolutely great!
So we were thinking...

What would you say about
staying at Greveholm?

–Yes!
–For as long as you want! Right?

My daughter, the Lady of a castle!

And naturally, you may visit us
as often as you'd like.

–Thank you so much!
–Let's toast for that!

Cheers!

Oh, another thing...

Since I couldn't move my satellite,
I've been fired today. But that's fine.

Because I've gotten something else...
An idea!

It was when Lillan discovered that levitating force
that I realised we could create something revolutionary.

Allow me to present:
the levitating bookcase, Leif.

The first bookcase without anchorage
in the entire world.

No nails, no screws, no ugly marks on the wall,
no accidents when you overshoot with the hammer...

And much more!
So, what do you think?

That's already a thing.

The bookcase Ivar leaves no marks on the wall. And it's steady on the floor.

Yes, but... Then you need a floor.
And you don't need one with this.

–Why is she undressing?
–Apologies, but...

Now I must go home. Thank you for everything.

–Already, Dioda? We just started eating!
–It really was nice to get to know you...

But now I really have to go...
Back to my world.

Well, it's a shame
that we won't see you around.

–Here, Melitta. It's for you.
–Oh, thank you! It looks so nice!

It's probably for the best
if you go outside.

I'll be travelling home in my tekadmyr,
so things might start shaking.

No. I don't want to leave, the castle owner
and I are having a grand time.

–But we're going to send a rocket!
–Well, do that out in the garden.

And don't hurt your fingers!
The adults will stay here.

Here, Spark. You'll get your gift now
since you're heading home.

You might want this when you're moving the
satellite. It's dark out in space, you know?

Lillan, Ivar and Melitta.

Thank you for saving me from the Count.
That was truly noble of you.

–Goodbye, Ivar.
–Wow! I could hear your thoughts!

Come on, Spark. Now we're leaving.

Where is she going?

Don't worry about that satellite.
We'll fix it.

Follow me! This'll be worth filming.

–Where is it?
–I don't know.

The Count sealed it away
so people couldn't see it.

–Why couldn't she leave earlier?
–She needed Spark for that. I think he has a key or something.

She's started it!

That's a massive firework!

Come on, let's go inside and check if
the TV is working!

If it is, he managed to move the satellite.

–What's happening?!
–Oh, a friend of mine is just flying away in a rocket.

–A rocket? Wow! Where is he going?
–She's going home.

Oh, "she".

By the way, I'm Anna. I just
moved here - we're neighbours now.

–Hi Anna, I'm Ivar.
–Nice. Uh, if you'd like we could hang out later?

–Oh, sure!
–OK. See you!

–Merry Christmas, by the way!
–Merry Christmas to you, too.

Don't you understand that you aren't allowed
to shoot rockets that big by yourselves?!

Don't get angry, Astrid. They did ask
for permission first!

–What, is it working?
–I hope it will soon.

Lillan, TV isn't everything. Can't we
give each other company like in the past?

You'd sit around the fire and talk...

Told each other biblical stories
about Jesus in Bethlehem and...

Josef and Mary that had to be taxed...

Right...

[MEANWHILE, IN SANTAWORLD...]

10, 9, 8, 7, 6,

5, 4, 3, 2, 1... 0!

He's lifted. He's about to
leave Santaworld now!

Oi, Happy Salmon. The satellite's still
there. Weren't you supposed to move it?

This is looking bad. If nobody moves it,
Santa will crash!

Someone has to move
the satellite within 5 seconds.

–We've got a signal!
–What?

They made it!

Oh, there's a signal? Well, it sure is
a blessing that you've got a signal-

–and that the noise all over the country is gone.

–Incredible. Fantastic. What a coincidence!
–And now we've gotten the Christmas mood back.

Now let's celebrate our usual, old, beloved way...

Now it's time for Ferdinand the Bull,
Chip n' Dale, Lady and the Tramp...

Oh, Leif. Isn't it time for you to go out
and buy some milk?

Of course. I get what you mean.

I'm off to buy milk. OK, kids. I hope
I won't miss Santa again this year.

Oh, Leif!

Hello there! I think there are
plenty of good children here.

You didn't crash!

–And it's all thanks to you.
–It wasn't just me...

True, this thing also played a role.

Spark!

–How did you get here?
–Dioda told me that you get to keep him.

Whoa, thank you!

I have some gifts for you, too.
Merry Christmas!

Thank you so much!

–Merry Christmas.
–Thank you!

That was a nice Christmas tree! If you treat it well,
it will surely give you lots of pine cones.

Well, now I must go. There are many
other children waiting for me.

That's all, folks. Ho ho!

Ho, ho!

–You just left! Why are you back?
–What do you mean?

Ho, ho! Are there any nice kids in here?

Hi Dad! You can empty your bag on the floor
and then we'll pick whatever we want.

Is that how it is? That's the last time
that I'll play Santa!

–You can see straight through her!!
–Maybe her father was a glass worker!

Let's have a toast. Cheers!

Well, Jean. Now I'm gone.
I can't see or hear anything... Hello?

Well... I never thought that I'd
get to experience such a nice Christmas.

But now I know that it's more than a fantasy.
Come on everyone, let's dance around the tree.

♫ Now Christmas has come again, yes it has
♫ come again, and it will stay here until Easter!

♫ But that's not true at all, no that's not true at all,
♫ because we'll fast in the meantime...

MERRY

MERRY
CHRISTMAS

SVT Undertext (c) Sveriges Television AB

[Translator's note:
When the series was released on TV, these guys would show up before or after each episode to open a slot in a themed advent calendar and banter about it. The official release on SVT Play removed those segments in each episode except for this one, and the official subtitles don't include any of the dialogue here, so I believe it was an error. Therefore, nothing from this point on will be translated.
Enjoy your evening, and Merry Christmas!]
