With "that comical figure" Stig Inge?

Ready?

What are you thinking?|You can't bring him up there.

- He wants to.|- He may snap!

- What are you talking about?|- Even time tables make you sweat!

I can take the subway|any time I want.

Right, Kristoffer?

Let's go.

We don't want to be late.|It's a live broadcast, after all.

I'm moving out.

Wait, Stig Inge!

Let's skip this.|We'll go home and rent a video.

That's what you want, right?|Just the two of us.

Don't you get it?|You think it's fun being me?

I hate the Tyen Center!|But I'm so scared.

And I just want you to like me,|and not be embarrassed.

I thought we could be buddies.|The two of us. For real.

Wait!|Stig Inge!

Wait!

Yes.

- The train's on its way.|- Just get him here.

- He may snap, Elisabeth.|- What's going on?

I'll call you back.

What are you doing here?

Never mind that.|What did you do to Stig Inge?

Let's just find him.

Ticket inspection.

May I see your ticket?

You're the guy from that TV show.|That's some funny stuff.

But you still have to pay.

I'll let you get off here.

What if something happens to him?|I didn't think you were like this.

- Like what?|- You use people!

You're cold enough to sail off with|someone who's in love with you.

- How can you go out with him?|- Don't you get it?

Dag would never hurt me.

Stig Inge!

We have to hurry.

Where's Kristoffer?

Yes?

Thanks.

Martin had to sign autographs|at school.

- Really?|- Yeah.

We should go, Martin.

Line?

He can stay for a couple of hours.|If he... wants.

- Do you?|- Yes.

I'll call in a couple of hours.

Bye.

You scared me. We can still make it.|What's she doing here?

- Where is he?|- You need make-up.

Stig Inge is ready.|Come on!

Don't f*** up.

You use a lot of yourself|in your shows.

Four is ready.|Switch to three.

Ready in one minute.

Karsten, the boys will be ready|in one minute.

Let's hear it for Synnve Svab!

I'm glad everything worked out.

Come with me, Kristoffer.

Let's just go home.

Cue lights, and up!

Kristoffer's Diary has been|a regular segment this season.

And for those who thought|Stig Inge would never leave home:

Here are Kristoffer and Stig Inge!

How was your trip on the subway?

It went just fine.

Stig Inge, this is a new trend, where|people no longer know what is real.

Back to Karsten!

- I think he's a little nervous.|- With a million people watching?

It could be my perfume.|I used a whole bottle for the boys.

What was your first TV performance,|Synnve?

It was at a shopping mall, actually,|although not the Tyen Center.

I hogged the camera after|a bank robbery when I was seven.

Karsten, talk to Kristoffer.

Kristoffer, most young people|dream of being on TV.

You have actually succeeded.|How does that feel?

Kristoffer?

How does it feel to be famous?

He's not well.|We should leave.

No, don't leave yet.|We still need you here. Let me see...

Stig Inge?

Say something.

Who played on our team|when we were kids?

- What team?|- Ham-Kam.

Terje Kojedal, Stle Solbakken,|Vegard Solheim...

And then there was the defense.

One of them scored an own goal.|Who else was on that defense?

Hallgeir Finnbrten and Knut Holte!

Move on, Karsten.

Thank you, Kristoffer. We have to|move on to our next guest.

Dagfinn Lyngb has just...

Wherever Ham-Kam plays|They have victorious days

And so we sing our refrain|Ham-Kam, Ham-Kam, Ham-Kam

Illegal kicks and yellow cards|As a sport, soccer is hard

The ball goes from man to man|at Ham-Kam, Ham-Kam, Ham-Kam

Go to a commercial break.

Give us a commercial break, dammit!

Let's go home.

Just get out.

I'll take care of it.

Get the tape from Strmstad.|And get Dagfinn Lyngb in here!

Kristoffer?

Elisabeth,|can you get Dagfinn Lyngb?

- I'll come by after the show.|- That's not such a good idea.

Bye, my friend.

I'm in love with someone else.

Dagfinn Lyngb is waiting for you.

Where is she?

She left.|She sails tomorrow.

I feel like walking home.

Are you all right?

- Are we still buddies?|- Of course.

- A lot has changed out here.|- Stig Inge?

- Who's that?|- A girl from computer class.

- Hi. It's been a while.|- Yes, it has.

I saw you on TV the other night.|Didn't know you were an actor.

It would be nice to meet some day.

Yeah.

- You forgot Cato Erstad.|- He played like a cow!

He played over 200 games for them.

That doesn't help if you're no good.

Could you keep it down?

We're both a little queasy.|Pigged out on candy.

Is it OK if he spends the night?

I saw you on TV.|That was some weird stuff.

I think our TV career is over.

I'll join you at work tomorrow.

I'm going to bed.|Will you wake me up?

What's with him?

He's in love.

Come on.

- What's going on?|- You have a job to do.

HENRIETTE, DON'T LEAVE!

GIVE HIM ANOTHER CHANCE!

What kind of a campaign is that?|The product is missing.

YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL AND SEXY!

YOUR LOVE IS LIKE|A BEAUTIFUL ROSE

Let me out.|I don't want to do this.

Will you please pull over?

H + K = TRUE

- It would end like it always does.|- You'll never know if you leave.

Please stop bothering us, Kristoffer.

Sometimes you have to let go of the|goalie and attack with both hands.

Run!

Run!

Henriette!|Wait!

I love you!

Henriette!

Have a nice trip.

Holy sh*t!
