  1. 0:14An empty fridge.
  2. 0:17Empty? That can't be right.
  3. 0:21See for yourself. Half a cucumber, some mustard and a glass of milk.
  4. 0:27Oh no. I had to go shopping yesterday.
  5. 0:30Yes. But you were in the workshop all evening.
  6. 0:34I sanded the dinghy. It's almost smooth now.
  7. 0:38Almost. You said that last week too.
  8. 0:42Yes, yes. So what are we having for lunch?
  9. 0:45Cucumber with mustard.
  10. 0:48No thanks. The children will never eat that.
  11. 0:51And Storm is already hungry. It's only eleven o'clock.
  12. 0:56Where is he?
  13. 0:57In the living room. He's drawing a puffin with Freja.
  14. 1:02Of course. It's always a puffin.
  15. 1:05Today there's a good reason. Look here.
  16. 1:08What's that? A note from kindergarten?
  17. 1:10Yes. "Storm is going to give a little presentation about his favorite animal in three weeks."
  18. 1:16And I can guess his favorite animal.
  19. 1:19The puffin. He said it before I had finished reading.
  20. 1:22He knows everything about puffins. Almost everything.
  21. 1:26Yes. But now he has to tell it in front of all the other children.
  22. 1:31Then we have to help him. But first we need to eat.
  23. 1:35Well, you know what? Freja had an idea this morning.
  24. 1:39What did she say?
  25. 1:41She wants to go to Aarhus Street Food. Her friend Alma was there last weekend.
  26. 1:47The food hall by the train station? That's a good idea.
  27. 1:51There's food from all over the world. Everyone can choose something different.
  28. 1:56Perfect. Then I'll have a roast pork sandwich.
  29. 2:00Of course. You always have that.
  30. 2:03Because it's good. Why change?
  31. 2:06Because there are so many other dishes, honey.
  32. 2:09Well, I have to admit it. I like what I know.
  33. 2:13I know that. But the children should try new things all the time.
  34. 2:17It's true. And I always tell them: just taste it.
  35. 2:21Exactly. Just taste it, Dad.
  36. 2:24Then I'll make you a promise.
  37. 2:26A promise? Let me hear.
  38. 2:29Today I'm going to taste something I've never tasted before.
  39. 2:33Something completely new? Not just a new sandwich?
  40. 2:37Completely new. I promise. How hard can it be?
  41. 2:41Today Mikkel is going to taste something new. Taste: I taste, you taste, and last week Storm tasted his first olive.
  42. 2:52I was supposed to go shopping yesterday. Shopping: I shop, you shop, but unfortunately I didn't shop yesterday.
  43. 3:00Our refrigerator is almost empty. It's called a refrigerator, and in a large food hall there are many refrigerators.
  44. 3:09When someone doesn't dare try something new, you say: just taste it! You can also say: just try it!
  45. 3:16An empty refrigerator, a note about the puffin and a big promise.
  46. 3:21Through the city.
  47. 3:23Is everyone wearing rain gear? It's drizzling.
  48. 3:26Yes. Freja is wearing her red jacket, and Storm is wearing the yellow one.
  49. 3:32And the puffin? It should come with me too, right?
  50. 3:35It always comes with me. It sits in his pocket with its head out.
  51. 3:40That way it can see the city too.
  52. 3:43We walk through the Latin Quarter and past the Cathedral.
  53. 3:47And then down Strøget to the train station. It takes a quarter of an hour.
  54. 3:52Storm is already asking something.
  55. 3:55What is he asking about?
  56. 3:56"What does a puffin eat, Dad?"
  57. 4:00Good question. It should be included in the presentation.
  58. 4:03It eats small fish. It dives for them into the sea.
  59. 4:08And it can have many small fish in its beak at once.
  60. 4:12«Hey, I'm a puffin, and I have ten fish in my mouth!»
  61. 4:17Storm laughs so much that he almost drops the puffin.
  62. 4:21Whoops! Catch it, Freja!
  63. 4:24She caught it. Just before a puddle.
  64. 4:27By the way, Freja asks what street food is called in Danish.
  65. 4:32Gademad. But hardly anyone says that.
  66. 4:35No. Everyone just says street food.
  67. 4:39And Freja thinks street food sounds like food you find on the street.
  68. 4:44I really hope not.
  69. 4:47Look, there's the building. The big, old building by the train station.
  70. 4:53And look at all those people at the door.
  71. 4:56Wait, there's a lot of people here!
  72. 4:59It's Saturday and it's twelve o'clock. All of Aarhus is hungry.
  73. 5:04And all the tables look busy.
  74. 5:07Calm down now. We're making a plan.
  75. 5:10And what's the plan?
  76. 5:11First we'll go around one time and look at all the stalls. No one's buying anything yet.
  77. 5:16It's going to be hard for Storm.
  78. 5:18He has to carry the puffin. That always helps.
  79. 5:21And the table?
  80. 5:22We'll keep an eye on it along the way. When someone stands up, we're ready.
  81. 5:28Ready? How?
  82. 5:30I'm a carpenter. I'm quick with a chair.
  83. 5:34Agreement. One round, and then we choose.
  84. 5:38A puffin dives for fish. Dive: I dive, you dive, and last night Storm dived under the covers.
  85. 5:48Freja caught the puffin. Catch: I catch, you catch, and today Freja caught it just before a puddle.
  86. 5:59The food hall is in an old building. It's called a building, and there are many old buildings in Aarhus.
  87. 6:07When I saw all those people, I said: stop it! You could also say: stop it, how many people are there!
  88. 6:15Drizzling rain, a puffin in my pocket and a plan for a table.
  89. 6:20A round in the hall.
  90. 6:23What a smell. I can smell garlic and freshly baked bread.
  91. 6:29And cinnamon. There's a stall with churros over there.
  92. 6:33What's on the left?
  93. 6:35Tacos. And next to it there's Indian food with lentils and rice.
  94. 6:41Freja is already standing at the pizza stall.
  95. 6:43She wants pizza with ham. I already know that.
  96. 6:48She asks: «Can I have a whole pizza?»
  97. 6:51A small one. We'll also have room for dessert.
  98. 6:54And Storm? What does he want?
  99. 6:56He says: «Something with fish. Like the puffin.»
  100. 7:01He eats the same as his favorite animal. Clever.
  101. 7:06There's fish and chips all the way down at the end.
  102. 7:10Nice. Then we have two. And you, Ida?
  103. 7:13I'll take the Indian one. A lentil soup, I think.
  104. 7:17Is it spicy?
  105. 7:18There's one chili on the board. I can handle that.
  106. 7:23One chili is more than enough for me.
  107. 7:26And what about you? Remember your promise.
  108. 7:29I'm just looking at the pork roast. Only with my eyes.
  109. 7:32It smells good, doesn't it?
  110. 7:35With crispy skin and red cabbage. It's perfect.
  111. 7:41That's right, but it's not new.
  112. 7:44No. It's not new. I'll look further.
  113. 7:49What about the Korean stall? They have dumplings.
  114. 7:53Dumplings? Little pieces of dough with filling in them?
  115. 7:57Yes. With meat or vegetables.
  116. 8:01Hm. And what's the red thing in the bowl next to it?
  117. 8:06Kimchi. It's cabbage. It's a little sour and a little spicy.
  118. 8:12Sour and spicy cabbage. It sounds dangerous.
  119. 8:17It's not dangerous. It's just new.
  120. 8:20Maybe. I think about it.
  121. 8:24Look, a couple gets up by the window. The table becomes available!
  122. 8:28I run. Storm, come with me!
  123. 8:31There you go! You made it before anyone else.
  124. 8:35Four chairs and a table by the window.
  125. 8:38Great, honey. Storm, sit here.
  126. 8:42And put the puffin on the table, Storm.
  127. 8:45The puffin? Mikkel, where is the puffin?
  128. 8:48It was in his pocket a moment ago.
  129. 8:51Storm looks in his pocket. It's empty.
  130. 8:55Okay. Don't panic. We'll find it.
  131. 8:58The hall smells of garlic and cinnamon. Smell: I smell, you smell, and this morning Mikkel smelled of wood and paint.
  132. 9:09I ran to the table. Run: I run, you run, and today I ran faster than anyone else.
  133. 9:18We found a table by the window. It's called a table, and there are many tables in the food hall.
  134. 9:24About the strong soup, Ida said: I can handle that! And to her you can answer: you can handle that just fine!
  135. 9:35Many stalls, an empty table, and an empty pocket.
  136. 9:41Where is the puffin?
  137. 9:43Storm has tears in his eyes. He never sleeps without it.
  138. 9:48Don't worry, Storm. We'll go back the same way.
  139. 9:52But the table? We just got it.
  140. 9:56We'll put our jackets on the chairs. Then everyone can see that it's taken.
  141. 10:01Yes. Freja, hold Storm's hand.
  142. 10:04First the churros stand. We stood there for a long time.
  143. 10:08Not here. Only sugar and cinnamon on the floor.
  144. 10:12I ask the lady in the stand. «Excuse me, have you seen a little puffin? A stuffed animal?»
  145. 10:19What does she say?
  146. 10:20She shakes her head. She hasn't seen it.
  147. 10:24Then the pizza stand. Freja stood there for a long time.
  148. 10:27Not there either. But the man gives Storm a napkin to cover her eyes.
  149. 10:32It was sweet of him.
  150. 10:34Well, honestly, I think it fell out when we ran to the table.
  151. 10:39It's possible. The pocket was wide open.
  152. 10:43Wait. There's a counter by the entrance. With lost property.
  153. 10:48Lost property? Things that people have lost?
  154. 10:51Yes. Umbrellas, hats and gloves. And maybe a puffin.
  155. 10:57Let's try. Come on, Storm.
  156. 11:00There's a young man behind the counter. I ask him.
  157. 11:04And?
  158. 11:05He says: «A little girl handed it in five minutes ago.»
  159. 11:11He takes it out! The black and white puffin with the orange beak!
  160. 11:16Storm hugs it so tightly.
  161. 11:19And he thanks the man. All by himself.
  162. 11:23Well done, Storm. That was great.
  163. 11:27But who was the little girl? We want to say thank you.
  164. 11:31The man doesn't know. She went on with her father.
  165. 11:35Then we say thank you into the air. Thank you, little girl!
  166. 11:39And now the puffin has to be firmly attached.
  167. 11:42How?
  168. 11:43I close the zipper on the pocket. Almost completely. Only the head is peeking out.
  169. 11:49Like this. Now it can see, but not fall out.
  170. 11:52And the jackets are still on our chairs.
  171. 11:55The table is waiting for us. Now we can buy food.
  172. 11:59Storm lost his puffin. Lose: I lose, you lose, and today Storm lost the puffin in the food hall.
  173. 12:11A girl handed it in. Deliver: I hand it in, you hand it in, and today a little girl handed the puffin in at the counter.
  174. 12:22At the entrance there is a counter. It's called a counter, and there are many counters at the airport.
  175. 12:30About the man with the napkin I said: that was sweet of him! To someone who helps you, you can say: how sweet of you!
  176. 12:38Two stalls, one counter and one happy puffin.
  177. 12:43In the queue.
  178. 12:44First fish and chips for Storm.
  179. 12:48There are three in front of us. It goes quickly.
  180. 12:51On the board it says: small or large portion.
  181. 12:55A small one. He is five years old.
  182. 12:58He says: «A large one! The puffin is hungry too.»
  183. 13:03A small one. The puffin only eats pufferfish.
  184. 13:07Now it's us. The chef asks: «Who's next?»
  185. 13:12I would like a small portion of fish and chips, please.
  186. 13:16She asks: «To eat here or to take away?»
  187. 13:19To eat here, please.
  188. 13:21And then: «Would you like remoulade or mayonnaise?»
  189. 13:25Remoulade. We are in Denmark.
  190. 13:28That's true. Danes eat remoulade with almost everything.
  191. 13:33She gives us a little plastic thing. What is it?
  192. 13:37A beeper. It beeps and flashes when the food is ready.
  193. 13:41Storm wants to hold it. He stares at it.
  194. 13:44He says: «It doesn't beep!»
  195. 13:47In a few minutes, honey. Patience.
  196. 13:50Now the pizza for Freja. She has already chosen.
  197. 13:54She wants to order herself. She practiced all the way here.
  198. 13:59Listen. «I would like a small pizza with ham, please.»
  199. 14:05Without her voice shaking. Like that!
  200. 14:09The man asks if she wants oregano on it.
  201. 14:12She says no thanks. She doesn't want green things.
  202. 14:16And then she also gets a beeper. Now we have two.
  203. 14:20And I already have my lentil soup.
  204. 14:23Already? That was quick.
  205. 14:26The soup is ready in a big pot. It just needs to be scooped up.
  206. 14:30Then there's only one missing.
  207. 14:32Yes. You. What will it be?
  208. 14:35I'll join the queue at the Korean stall.
  209. 14:38The Korean? With kimchi?
  210. 14:41Yes. I promised.
  211. 14:44The man in front of you orders something extra strong.
  212. 14:47Extra strong? He's already sweating.
  213. 14:51Now the chef looks at you. "Who's next?"
  214. 14:55It's me. Uh, what can you recommend?
  215. 14:59She smiles and asks: "How brave are you?"
  216. 15:03Freja ordered her pizza herself. Order: I order, you order, and today Freja ordered all by herself.
  217. 15:13She practiced all the way. Practice: I practice, you practice, and yesterday Freja practiced her violin.
  218. 15:23Storm got a small portion. It's called a portion, and a hungry carpenter likes to eat two portions.
  219. 15:31At the stall they ask: to eat here or to take away? And you can answer: to eat here, please!
  220. 15:38Two beepers, a soup and a brave question.
  221. 15:43Did you know that Aarhus Street Food opened in two thousand and sixteen?
  222. 15:48So early? I thought it was brand new.
  223. 15:51No. And the building is much older. It used to be a bus garage.
  224. 15:58A bus garage? Did they keep the buses here at night?
  225. 16:02Yes. Close to the train station, in the middle of the city.
  226. 16:06You can still see that. The ceiling is high, and the gates are large.
  227. 16:10There was room for many buses. Now there is room for many stalls.
  228. 16:15And the stalls sell food from all over the world.
  229. 16:17From Mexico, India, Korea and Italy. And from Denmark.
  230. 16:24All under one roof. So no one gets wet.
  231. 16:28That is important in Aarhus in October.
  232. 16:31And you can travel around the world in one lunch.
  233. 16:35Which would you rather have? Mexico or Korea?
  234. 16:38Today India. But ask me again next week.
  235. 16:42At the table.
  236. 16:44What did you tell the chef? How brave are you?
  237. 16:47I said: «Medium-hearted.»
  238. 16:50Medium-hearted! And what did you get then?
  239. 16:54It's a secret. You see it when my beeper beeps.
  240. 16:58Look! Storm's beeper flashes!
  241. 17:02He jumps up and down. «It's beeping! It's beeping!»
  242. 17:07And now Frejas is beeping too.
  243. 17:10Come on, kids. We'll get the food together.
  244. 17:13Perfect. Two trays of food and a bowl of soup.
  245. 17:18Fish and chips, crispy and golden.
  246. 17:22And the pizza is almost as big as Freja's head.
  247. 17:27Was it a small pizza?
  248. 17:29Small for a carpenter. Big for a girl of eight.
  249. 17:33Well done, everyone!
  250. 17:36Well done. My soup is nice and hot.
  251. 17:40Is it strong?
  252. 17:42A little. But it's good. I can handle it.
  253. 17:46What is Storm doing now?
  254. 17:48He gives the puffin a French fry.
  255. 17:51A French fry? Puffins eat fish, after all.
  256. 17:55He says: “It’s a fish. A long, yellow fish.”
  257. 18:01It actually looks a bit like it.
  258. 18:03And now he dips it in remoulade.
  259. 18:06Storm, real puffins don’t eat remoulade.
  260. 18:11He says: “Danish puffins do.”
  261. 18:14I can’t argue with that.
  262. 18:17And your beeper? It’s still quiet.
  263. 18:20Yes. Maybe they’ve forgotten me.
  264. 18:23Or maybe they’re doing something extra brave.
  265. 18:27Now Storm puts the puffin on top of my beeper.
  266. 18:30Why is that?
  267. 18:31He says: “The puffin will look after it for you, dad.”
  268. 18:36How sweet.
  269. 18:37And now it beeps! The puffin jumps into the air.
  270. 18:40And lands right in the remoulade.
  271. 18:43We fetched the food together. Fetch: I fetch, you fetch, and today we fetched two trays and a soup.
  272. 18:54Storm dipped his fries. Dip: I dip, you dip, and today Storm dipped the fries in remoulade.
  273. 19:04The food comes on a tray. It's called a tray, and there were two trays on our table.
  274. 19:11Before the food, Mikkel said: enjoy, everyone! And when you're done, you say: thank you for the food!
  275. 19:18An old bus garage, a hungry puffin and a beeper that finally beeped.
  276. 19:25The first bite.
  277. 19:27Here's my tray. Five dumplings and a small bowl of kimchi.
  278. 19:33First the puffin. It's full of remoulade.
  279. 19:37Poor puffin. Do you have a wet napkin?
  280. 19:40Yes. I'll wipe it off. Like that. Almost clean again.
  281. 19:46Storm says: «Now it smells like fish and chips.»
  282. 19:50So it suits a puffin well.
  283. 19:52Okay. Now it's my turn.
  284. 19:55What's in the dumplings?
  285. 19:57Pork and spring onions. And you dip them in soy.
  286. 20:02It doesn't sound so dangerous.
  287. 20:04No. But the kimchi, it's red. Very red.
  288. 20:11Take a small bite. Just one.
  289. 20:16The children look at me. All three.
  290. 20:20Three? Ah, the puffin is looking too.
  291. 20:24Okay. One, two, three.
  292. 20:30And?
  293. 20:31Uha. It's sour! And strong!
  294. 20:37Your face! Storm is laughing so hard.
  295. 20:43Wait. Wait a minute.
  296. 20:45What is it?
  297. 20:47It's actually good. It's crunchy.
  298. 20:50Good? Are you saying kimchi is good?
  299. 20:55Sour, strong and fresh. And then a dumpling afterwards. Perfect.
  300. 21:02I never thought that.
  301. 21:04Well, I have to admit that. I was wrong.
  302. 21:07Now Freja wants to taste it too. She takes a small bite.
  303. 21:13She coughs and drinks water. But she smiles.
  304. 21:16And Storm?
  305. 21:18He covers his mouth. «No thanks. The puffin says no thanks too.»
  306. 21:23That's okay. You don't have to like everything.
  307. 21:28Listen. I'll go up and buy another bowl.
  308. 21:31Another bowl? You?
  309. 21:34Yes. To take home. For tomorrow.
  310. 21:37Mikkel, you're a new man.
  311. 21:40No. I'm the same man. With kimchi.
  312. 21:44I wiped the puffin off. Dry: I wipe, you wipe, and today I wiped remoulade off a puffin.
  313. 21:55The kimchi crunches in your mouth. Crunch: it crunches, they crunch, and today the cabbage crunched between my teeth.
  314. 22:06Mikkel took a small bite. It's called a bite, and after two bites he wanted more.
  315. 22:13I said: I was wrong! And to Ida I can also say: you were right!
  316. 22:19Five dumplings, a bowl of kimchi and a promise kept.
  317. 22:24Room for dessert.
  318. 22:26Room? I'm so full.
  319. 22:31Storm says: «There's always room for dessert.» He has a dessert belly.
  320. 22:36A dessert belly. Where did he get it from?
  321. 22:41I have no idea.
  322. 22:43He got it from you, honey.
  323. 22:45Maybe. What should we have?
  324. 22:48Churros. I've been smelling cinnamon for a whole hour.
  325. 22:53Churros? I was thinking about ice cream.
  326. 22:56Ice cream? It's October and it's raining.
  327. 23:00Danes eat ice cream all year round. Even in the rain.
  328. 23:05That's right, but not me.
  329. 23:08Freja wants ice cream. With chocolate.
  330. 23:11And Storm wants churros. Because they look like long fish.
  331. 23:15Everything looks like fish today.
  332. 23:17So two want ice cream, and two want churros.
  333. 23:21Four desserts? That's too much.
  334. 23:24Yes. No one can eat that much after that lunch.
  335. 23:28How about two? One portion of churros and one ice cream. And then we share.
  336. 23:34Share? With four spoons?
  337. 23:37Four spoons and eight hands.
  338. 23:40It's going to be a mess.
  339. 23:41It's going to be cozy.
  340. 23:43Cozy mess. Okay.
  341. 23:45I'll get the ice cream. You get the churros.
  342. 23:49And who's looking after the table?
  343. 23:51Freja. And the grove is looking after Freja.
  344. 23:54Then the table is in safe hands.
  345. 23:56Here's the ice cream. Two scoops, chocolate and vanilla.
  346. 24:01And here are churros with sugar and cinnamon. And a small bowl of chocolate sauce.
  347. 24:08Storm dips his churro in the chocolate. And then in the ice cream.
  348. 24:13Churro in ice cream? That's too much.
  349. 24:17He says: «It's a fish swimming in ice cream.»
  350. 24:21He has a vivid imagination.
  351. 24:24Like his mother.
  352. 24:25Or his father. Try it for yourself.
  353. 24:28Okay, I'll taste it. But churro in ice cream sounds strange.
  354. 24:33And?
  355. 24:34That's good! Storm is right.
  356. 24:38This is the second time today that you've been wrong.
  357. 24:42No. This is the second time today that I've learned something new.
  358. 24:47We shared two desserts. Share: I share, you share, and today we shared everything with four spoons.
  359. 24:59Storm's churro swam in ice cream. Swim: I swim, you swim, and this summer we swam in the harbor bath.
  360. 25:09There were four spoons on the table. It's called a spoon, and after dessert all the spoons were sticky.
  361. 25:18Storm said: there's always room for dessert! But Ida said: I'm full!
  362. 25:26One ice cream, one portion of churros and a cozy mess.
  363. 25:31The puffin on the napkin.
  364. 25:34What is Freja drawing? With your pen?
  365. 25:37Yes. She draws a puffin. It stands on a rock by the sea.
  366. 25:43It's beautiful. Look at the feet. They're all orange.
  367. 25:48She says it's for Storm's poster. For the presentation.
  368. 25:53How sweet of her.
  369. 25:55In the meantime, Storm can practice. Storm, what do you want to tell about the puffin?
  370. 26:01He climbs onto the chair. With the puffin in his hand.
  371. 26:04Get off the chair, honey. You can stand on the floor.
  372. 26:08"First point," he says.
  373. 26:11And what is the first point?
  374. 26:14"The puffin lives by the sea, far to the north, where it's cold."
  375. 26:19Great. That's right.
  376. 26:21"Second point: The puffin dives for small fish."
  377. 26:25And it can have many fish in its beak at once. You learned that on the way.
  378. 26:31He remembers it all. And now the third point.
  379. 26:35Is there a third point?
  380. 26:36"The puffin eats French fries with remoulade."
  381. 26:39No, Storm. That was just today.
  382. 26:42That was a good point.
  383. 26:44We can find a real third point in a book.
  384. 26:48You're a librarian. You have a thousand books about puffins.
  385. 26:53Not a thousand. But at Dokk1 we certainly have some.
  386. 26:57Don't you know anything about the puffin's beak?
  387. 27:00Yes. In the summer the beak is brightly colored. Orange, yellow and gray-blue.
  388. 27:08Only in the summer?
  389. 27:10Yes. In the winter it's not so brightly colored.
  390. 27:14I didn't know that. That's a good third point.
  391. 27:17Storm says it three times. "In the summer the beak is brightly colored."
  392. 27:23Then he remembers it.
  393. 27:25He's so proud.
  394. 27:27Now he asks something. "Can the puffin come to the presentation?"
  395. 27:33Hm. It can't stand on its own. It keeps falling over.
  396. 27:37But in Freja's drawing, the puffin is standing on a rock.
  397. 27:40Yes? And so what?
  398. 27:43Then I have an idea. I won't say more.
  399. 27:47Mikkel! What kind of idea?
  400. 27:49You'll see that tonight.
  401. 27:53Freja drew a puffin. Draw: I draw, you draw, and today Freja drew with my ballpoint pen.
  402. 28:02Storm remembers it all. Remember: I remember, you remember, and today Storm remembered three points.
  403. 28:11The puffin has a brightly colored beak. It's called a beak, and in Freja's drawings there are always many beaks.
  404. 28:19About my idea I said: you'll see! You could also say: wait and see!
  405. 28:25A napkin, three points and a secret idea.
  406. 28:29A rock made of wood.
  407. 28:32Finally! You've been in the workshop for two hours.
  408. 28:37And here's the result. Close your eyes, Storm.
  409. 28:41He closes them. And he holds the puffin very tightly.
  410. 28:45Now you can look.
  411. 28:47A small rock! Made of wood!
  412. 28:51It's made from an old piece of wood from the dinghy.
  413. 28:55From the dinghy? Are you sure?
  414. 28:58Yes. It was a board I couldn't use. Now it's a rock.
  415. 29:03And you've painted it gray. With little white dots.
  416. 29:07The white dots are bird droppings. It's very realistic.
  417. 29:14Of course it is.
  418. 29:16Storm puts the puffin on the rock.
  419. 29:19And it stands! It doesn't fall over.
  420. 29:22There's a little groove in the top. For the feet.
  421. 29:28Storm can't stop smiling.
  422. 29:30He says: "Now the grove can also give a presentation."
  423. 29:36And Freja has a gift for him.
  424. 29:38The drawing from the napkin?
  425. 29:40Yes, but bigger. She has drawn it again on a large piece of cardboard.
  426. 29:45Well done, Freja! The grove on the cliff, by the sea.
  427. 29:52And she has written his name at the top. In big letters.
  428. 29:57So now he has a poster, a cliff and three good points.
  429. 30:04And a father with kimchi in the fridge.
  430. 30:09At least the fridge is not empty anymore.
  431. 30:11No. We also shopped on the way home. Finally.
  432. 30:17I shopped. You have to give me that.
  433. 30:20I'll give you that. Nice, honey.
  434. 30:24And Storm? Where is he now?
  435. 30:27In bed. With the grove next to him. And the rock on the bedside table.
  436. 30:33He's not afraid of the dark tonight.
  437. 30:36No. The grove is looking after him.
  438. 30:39It was a good Saturday, Ida.
  439. 30:41That was it. And thanks for the food, even though you didn't make it.
  440. 30:45Well done anyway.
  441. 30:48Mikkel painted the rock grey. Paint: I paint, you paint, and tonight Mikkel painted little white dots.
  442. 30:57Now the grove doesn't fall over anymore. Fall over: it falls over, they fall over, and this morning the grove fell off Storm's bed.
  443. 31:07The grove stands on a rock. It's called a rock, and far to the north there are many rocks by the sea.
  444. 31:14I said: you have to give me that! And Ida replied: I'll give you that!
  445. 31:20Thanks for listening. Next week: questions and answers about shopping and money, in the supermarket and at the checkout. See you in Aarhus!
