Carmen Curlers

Axel Byvang is having a shave when he overhears a woman asking to have her hair done for her son’s confirmation. Shortly after the woman leaves, humiliated, Axel finds an ad looking for investors for the invention of an electric curler

Although the curler still does not work, Axel signs up for the year's largest beauty fair in Copenhagen, where he will demonstrate Axel’s Curlers. Will he be ready? Meanwhile, Birthe has a crisis at home.

Axel has hit rock bottom. His customers--and his wife and son--have disappeared. As Frans tries to bring Axel out of his despair, Birthe gets a job as a clerk in the TV store.

Factory construction for Carmen Curlers is well underway--much to the dismay of Poul, Axel’s boyhood tormentor. But to keep things moving, Axel must pull some strings to get his curlers in stores for Christmas.

The bank has decided to loan Axel another million, Birthe is given the task of hiring a full factory staff, and Axel and Frans have promised Lundahl an advertising campaign in four days. Meanwhile, Jorgen is feeling hopeless.

The Carmen Curler factory exudes life. Everyone is busy and the hallways are like a train station--but Frans has never felt so alone. Is it time for a change?

It's Christmas Eve. Axel wants Tove back, but she has other plans. Birthe celebrates Christmas with her family but discovers that Jorgen has spent most of their money on one good, last Christmas. And things aren’t going well for Carmen Curlers, either!

Axel and Frans go to Paris and come home with an order for 10,000 curler sets. Will he be able to deliver in an extremely short period of time? And is Axel really going to follow Tove to Copenhagen?
