Sofa

It is guaranteed to be both fun and loud when the participants get involved in what they watch on TV and which brings out the entire emotional register from cheers, embarrassment, frustration, laughter spasms and tears. In some of the homes, the children in the family are also on the sofa. No one is left alone on the sofas, because TV is better when you watch it with someone.

Martine and Aleks have taken the double bed for a cozy evening with TV programs, since Aleks will soon be going home to Bergen. Jorun has a birthday and his best friend Adam surprises with home-baked cake! There will be a mime party on the sofas when the puppet film Karius and Baktus is on the TV menu. At home with the sisters Lilli and Aase, there is a full spasm of laughter when the expression "drop mouse" is to be explained.

At Maurstad, they disagree about when the Christmas tree and the rest of Christmas should go out. Aleks and Martine argue about what their first child should be called. Elin Ørjasæter is too well off as a chubby person to be able to work out in the new year. Niklas dreams of becoming king, but Benjamin thinks her husband is too lazy for the role.

Alexandra is upset about mum Barbara who wants to start hiking with her daughter. The sons in the Maurstad family believe that mum Mari has not learned anything new in 50 years.
