Wholesaler Madsen is sure that Morten is out to cheat on him and sets a mildly reluctant Max to spy on him. With Ane and Fie, even bigger things are at stake, as Ane's newborn baby has been removed by Jesper's father and placed in an unknown orphanage. Fie realizes that only Jesper can help, but how does she find him? And then Count Ditmar's German wife, Mitzi, receives a visit from the south as her little brother and his Nazi friends make their entrance. Meanwhile, the power game continues between the Molin couple, who are finding it harder and harder to hide their crisis. And when the lady suddenly makes a surprising decision, it sets off an avalanche of love that spreads to several of the other guests.
