KIRSTEN: Sorhagen Palace
was first built in 1536
2
00:00:11,636 --> 00:00:14,139
and later renovated
in the 18th century.
3
00:00:14,180 --> 00:00:16,349
And ever since then,
there's been a royal decree
4
00:00:16,391 --> 00:00:18,643
for the grounds to be
decorated every Christmas.
5
00:00:18,685 --> 00:00:20,729
As you can see, everything
from our ornaments
6
00:00:20,770 --> 00:00:22,230
to our silver bells
7
00:00:22,272 --> 00:00:24,482
tell a story of the
legacies of the Counts
8
00:00:24,524 --> 00:00:26,484
who once called
Sorhagen Palace home.
9
00:00:26,526 --> 00:00:28,820
-Is Count Lars actually
living here now?
10
00:00:28,862 --> 00:00:30,530
Will we get to see
him on this tour?
11
00:00:30,572 --> 00:00:33,116
Or is it true that he hasn't
made a public appearance
12
00:00:33,158 --> 00:00:34,701
since he was a teenager?
13
00:00:34,743 --> 00:00:37,037
-Uh, the current Count prefers
to work behind the scenes.
14
00:00:37,078 --> 00:00:39,122
Now, the original
stone was forged...
15
00:00:39,164 --> 00:00:40,498
-Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!
16
00:00:40,540 --> 00:00:42,208
Is it true he
doesn't show his face
17
00:00:42,250 --> 00:00:43,644
because he lost his
nose bullfighting?
18
00:00:43,668 --> 00:00:45,170
[door opens]
19
00:00:45,211 --> 00:00:48,590
-The Count's nose, I assure
you, is very well intact,
20
00:00:48,631 --> 00:00:50,759
and you should not believe
the conspiracy theories
21
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:52,218
that you read at gossip sites.
22
00:00:52,260 --> 00:00:54,220
-Ah, you all are in luck today.
23
00:00:54,262 --> 00:00:56,556
This is Sir Gustus, the
Count's Royal Advisor.
24
00:00:56,598 --> 00:00:59,476
-Ah! So you can tell us if
the Count is actually here?
25
00:00:59,517 --> 00:01:02,145
I mean, it's the only reason
why we came on the tour, anyway.
26
00:01:02,187 --> 00:01:02,979
Right, guys?
[laughs nervously]
27
00:01:03,021 --> 00:01:04,356
-On behalf of Count Lars,
28
00:01:04,397 --> 00:01:06,232
we are so happy you
chose to spend the day
29
00:01:06,274 --> 00:01:08,026
visiting Sorhagen Palace.
30
00:01:08,068 --> 00:01:09,527
We hope you stay the month
31
00:01:09,569 --> 00:01:12,572
as Christmastime here
is always magical
32
00:01:12,614 --> 00:01:15,617
and the town's festivities
are open to all.
33
00:01:15,658 --> 00:01:17,160

34

[quietly] A word?
35
00:01:19,788 --> 00:01:21,247
-Just one moment.
36
00:01:21,289 --> 00:01:23,583
TOURIST: I don't think we're
seeing the Count today...
37
00:01:25,460 --> 00:01:28,380

Count talk, the better.

-I know.

I'm sorry, sir, I'm trying.
They just keep asking.
40
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,802
-Only three today?
41
00:01:33,843 --> 00:01:36,429
-The most we've had this month.
42
00:01:36,471 --> 00:01:40,016
Do you think if he made
one quick appearance,
43
00:01:40,058 --> 00:01:41,768
we'd get more sign-ups?
44
00:01:41,810 --> 00:01:43,478
-Remember to highlight
45
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,939

lights in Northern Europe
46
00:01:45,980 --> 00:01:48,525

69

secretly fathered a baby

00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:34,728
{\an8}could not be here in person
178
00:06:34,769 --> 00:06:36,813
{\an8}to drop off the
royal toy donation
179
00:06:36,855 --> 00:06:38,898
{\an8}for the Nordin Children's Group,
180
00:06:38,940 --> 00:06:42,569
{\an8}but would like to
wish all the children
181
00:06:42,610 --> 00:06:44,904
{\an8}who will be receiving
these gifts,
182
00:06:44,946 --> 00:06:48,575

183
00:06:48,616 --> 00:06:50,785
-Why can't they just
admit the guy's a flake?
184
00:06:50,827 --> 00:06:53,621
He's probably out partying
on some yacht somewhere.
185
00:06:53,663 --> 00:06:56,666
-I heard he has some weird skin
rash that they can't figure out.
186

-Eww, please! Thank you.
187

Whatever the reason,
188
00:07:00,795 --> 00:07:03,089
an interview with him
would be a gold mine.
189
00:07:03,131 --> 00:07:06,092

include covering my raise?
190

191
00:07:09,095 --> 00:07:11,806

news source in Europe,
192
00:07:11,848 --> 00:07:13,516

-I got the Princess of Gibraltar
to admit she laundered money.
197

Marino's lover's home address.
198

dodgy Count a few questions.

can land an interview
200
00:07:30,825 --> 00:07:33,244

I'll give you a raise.
201
00:07:33,286 --> 00:07:34,662

get that in writing?
203

-Where would you even start?
204
00:07:39,834 --> 00:07:42,629
-Well, Sorhagen Palace throws a
Yuletide Ball every Christmas,
205
00:07:42,671 --> 00:07:44,172
and tradition
calls for the Count
206
00:07:44,214 --> 00:07:45,882
to oversee all the aspects.
207
00:07:45,924 --> 00:07:48,677
-He hasn't been seen at the ball
since he was bestowed the title.
208
00:07:48,718 --> 00:07:50,303
He hasn't been seen by anyone,
209
00:07:50,345 --> 00:07:51,805
anywhere, since
he was a teenager!
210
00:07:51,846 --> 00:07:53,449
-Well, it doesn't mean
he hasn't been there.
211
00:07:53,473 --> 00:07:54,849
-Ugh!
212
00:07:54,891 --> 00:07:57,268

land the first interview
213
00:07:57,310 --> 00:07:58,770
or get the first picture?
214
00:07:58,812 --> 00:08:01,231
RGE would go from a
small-time gossip site
215
00:08:01,272 --> 00:08:05,568

216
00:08:05,610 --> 00:08:09,489

229

This profile with the Count
is a huge opportunity for me.
230
00:08:33,680 --> 00:08:36,391
-I always thought that
RGE was more of a job,
231
00:08:36,433 --> 00:08:38,393
and not necessarily
a career for you.
232

be dressed so casually.

Count's personal medallion?

-Yes, she truly believes
she met the Count.

The only way to
get ahead of this
410

is to finally release the truth.
411
00:16:13,598 --> 00:16:14,849
ROYAL COUNCILLOR: We can't.
412
00:16:14,891 --> 00:16:16,202
We'd go from having
at least some tourists
413
00:16:16,226 --> 00:16:17,977

believes this man

to be the Count,

impressed with that journalist.

thinking that she could

get a private interview
with the Count.

that that requires...

off her rocker.

Besides Jensen, is there
any security at that palace?

is the best in Nordin.

can I get you anything?

I'm so sorry again about
what happened today.

- Mr. Pederson...
- Oh, please, call me Adam.

-Mr. Pederson, after
conveying our incident
438
00:17:26,504 --> 00:17:28,590
to the Royal Council,
much to my dismay
439

I've been sent here
to speak with you.

-Thanks to your
outright desire to lie,

this reporter believes
she met the Count today.
443
00:17:37,182 --> 00:17:39,267
If that photo is released,
it will cause a crisis
444
00:17:39,309 --> 00:17:41,686
of grand proportion
for the Royal Family.
445
00:17:41,728 --> 00:17:43,980

of the real Count.

no Count of Sorhagen.
454
00:18:03,041 --> 00:18:04,668
-Yes, there is.

00:18:04,709 --> 00:18:06,920
-Count Lars abdicated
the title four years ago

at Daytona Beach.

what happened in Daytona
didn't stay in Daytona?

00:18:17,472 --> 00:18:18,848
-Precisely.

He's been with her ever since.
462
00:18:20,684 --> 00:18:23,520
He threw that medallion
out the window in protest.
463

We've been looking
for it for some time.

Because it was just
right... well, hang on,
466
00:18:29,484 --> 00:18:33,113
why are you telling
me all of this?
467
00:18:33,154 --> 00:18:35,115
-Because the Royal
Council believes
468
00:18:35,156 --> 00:18:37,325
this is an opportunity to
avoid a bigger scandal.
469
00:18:37,367 --> 00:18:41,079

believes you to be the Count,

very clear: no photos.
532
00:21:41,009 --> 00:21:42,218
-And the agreement?
533
00:21:42,260 --> 00:21:43,887
-Signed, sealed, and delivered.
534
00:21:43,928 --> 00:21:45,764
-Ah!
535
00:21:45,805 --> 00:21:47,557
You may commence.
536
00:21:51,436 --> 00:21:54,856
-Your Grace, thank you so
much for allowing this.
537
00:21:54,898 --> 00:21:56,900
I'm very sorry for
bombarding you yesterday;
538
00:21:56,941 --> 00:22:00,320
there's just no other way of
getting in contact with you.
539
00:22:00,362 --> 00:22:01,905
Which brings me to
my first question:
540
00:22:01,946 --> 00:22:04,657
why are you so private?
541
00:22:04,699 --> 00:22:06,534
-I feel that the
best way to serve
542
00:22:06,576 --> 00:22:09,162
the country of Nordin is...
543
00:22:09,204 --> 00:22:10,622
out of the limelight.
544
00:22:10,663 --> 00:22:12,543
-Right, that's what all
your press releases say,
545
00:22:12,582 --> 00:22:14,334
but what does that
actually mean?
546
00:22:14,376 --> 00:22:16,795
-It means he doesn't
get bogged down
547
00:22:16,836 --> 00:22:18,963
with the showmanship
of the position.
548
00:22:19,005 --> 00:22:20,340
-Yes.
549
00:22:20,382 --> 00:22:23,426
However, Sorhagen's
economy has suffered
550
00:22:23,468 --> 00:22:25,679
since your father passed,
and many people believe
551
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,932
that's because you haven't
made any public appearances.
552
00:22:28,973 --> 00:22:31,434
You don't feel any
responsibility to your country?
553
00:22:31,476 --> 00:22:34,229
-Uh... perhaps you'd
like to ask about
554
00:22:34,270 --> 00:22:36,189
the Count's Children's Charity?
555
00:22:36,231 --> 00:22:37,816
-Sir Gustus, no offence,
556
00:22:37,857 --> 00:22:39,943
but maybe the Count would
feel more comfortable
557
00:22:39,984 --> 00:22:41,152
if it were just us?
558
00:22:41,194 --> 00:22:42,570
-No.
559
00:22:42,612 --> 00:22:45,281
-Copy that. Okay.
[clears throat]
560
00:22:45,323 --> 00:22:48,284
Well, um, what do
you do for fun?
561

-I, uh, serve on...

Appointment... Committee
563
00:22:55,500 --> 00:22:59,379

-[laughs] Ah.
566

Oh, you're serious?
Oh, wow. Um, okay.
567
00:23:09,764 --> 00:23:11,141
Well, what about
the Yuletide Ball?
568
00:23:11,182 --> 00:23:12,726
What's your role in that?
569
00:23:12,767 --> 00:23:15,121
- I oversee the event planning.
- Oh, are you a fan of Christmas?
570
00:23:15,145 --> 00:23:17,147
-Yes, no, it's my
favourite time of year!
571
00:23:17,188 --> 00:23:18,898
-Good, now we're talking!
572
00:23:18,940 --> 00:23:20,668
What are some of your favourite
Sorhagen Christmas activities?
573
00:23:20,692 --> 00:23:22,610
- The Nisse Hunt.
- Okay.
574
00:23:22,652 --> 00:23:25,071
-And then the Wreath
Lighting at the town square.
575
00:23:25,113 --> 00:23:26,448
My dad...
- Mm-hm?
576
00:23:26,489 --> 00:23:27,699
- used to take me sledding,
577
00:23:27,741 --> 00:23:29,701
and then we would stay
up very, very late
578
00:23:29,743 --> 00:23:31,286
and watch the northern lights.
579
00:23:31,327 --> 00:23:33,663
-I didn't know
Counts went sledding.
580
00:23:33,705 --> 00:23:36,666
SIR GUSTUS: They normally don't.
581
00:23:36,708 --> 00:23:40,045
-Well, uh, so it seems like
Christmas is your thing.
582
00:23:41,796 --> 00:23:45,091
How about a special
in-depth article
583
00:23:45,133 --> 00:23:46,676
on Christmas with the Count?

Everything leading up
to the Yuletide Ball.

-Absolutely not!
588
00:23:55,185 --> 00:23:58,021

sleep-deprived at the moment.

That was our agreement.

-Yes, um... but weren't
you also the one

that was telling me
that the Royal Council
594
00:24:08,573 --> 00:24:11,284
is very worried about
tourism numbers?
595
00:24:11,326 --> 00:24:13,661
And wouldn't an in-depth article
596
00:24:13,703 --> 00:24:17,123
on Christmas with
the Count help?
597
00:24:17,165 --> 00:24:21,169
After all, I am the
Count of Sorhagen.
598
00:24:23,046 --> 00:24:24,130
My decision.

That's what we decided.

SIR GUSTUS: I... I
tried to stop him.
603
00:24:31,888 --> 00:24:33,515
I don't think he
truly comprehends
604
00:24:33,556 --> 00:24:35,975
what a full Christmas
spread with a publication

Insider will entail.

have to take charge.

And keep her and Mr. Pederson's
interactions minimal, hmm?

If all goes well, we walk
away with an uptick in tourism

and time to find a more
permanent solution.

-With all due respect,
616
00:25:03,962 --> 00:25:07,298
keeping Mr. Pederson
in line might be a...
617
00:25:07,340 --> 00:25:09,259
a tall order.

that means that I get
to stay at the Palace,

come to think about it, I
probably shouldn't be out.

would be best.

-Darling, I'm worried about you.
1197

This is all getting...
- Out of hand?
1198
00:51:05,482 --> 00:51:07,609
Oh, I'm well aware.
1199
00:51:07,650 --> 00:51:10,236
All because of a
little white lie,
1200
00:51:10,278 --> 00:51:13,239
I could bring ruin to this
town, the Royal Family,
1201
00:51:13,281 --> 00:51:16,117
and everything that you
have worked so hard for.
1202
00:51:16,159 --> 00:51:18,411
-Well, that's a lot of
pressure to put on yourself,
1203
00:51:18,453 --> 00:51:20,639
especially for someone who's
been running from this place
1204
00:51:20,663 --> 00:51:22,082
for so long.
1205
00:51:22,123 --> 00:51:25,293
-Mum, I haven't been
running from here.
1206
00:51:25,335 --> 00:51:26,628
-Really?
1207
00:51:26,670 --> 00:51:28,546
So, what would you call
1208
00:51:28,588 --> 00:51:31,216
constantly travelling
for ten years,
1209
00:51:31,257 --> 00:51:33,718
avoiding all responsibility?
1210
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,054
-Looking for my passion.
1211
00:51:36,096 --> 00:51:37,972
Trying to find a
job that I'm good at
1212
00:51:38,014 --> 00:51:41,476
and that I can make
a difference with.
1213
00:51:41,518 --> 00:51:44,270
Oh, let's just hope that I can
still make a positive impact
1214
00:51:44,312 --> 00:51:46,648
before I leave again.
1215
00:51:46,690 --> 00:51:47,982
Oh, here we go!
1216
00:51:48,024 --> 00:51:50,485
-Ah! Come in! You
must be Charlotte.
1217
00:51:50,527 --> 00:51:52,153
-Good morning.
1218
00:51:52,195 --> 00:51:54,364
Are you two ready to prep
for a Scandinavian feast
1219
00:51:54,406 --> 00:51:55,573
during the Christmas season
1220
00:51:55,615 --> 00:51:57,283
with lots of traditional
food and drinks?
1221
00:51:57,325 --> 00:51:59,869
-You had to Google
"Julebord," didn't you?
1222
00:51:59,911 --> 00:52:02,205
-I had to lightly
refresh my knowledge.
1223
00:52:02,247 --> 00:52:04,374
-The Count tells me
he wants you to cover
1224
00:52:04,416 --> 00:52:06,876
the making of the krumkake.
1225
00:52:06,918 --> 00:52:09,754
And since being royal doesn't
get you out of helping,
1226
00:52:09,796 --> 00:52:11,756
both of you can grab an apron.
1227
00:52:14,092 --> 00:52:17,178
I have to admit I'm really
not the baking type.

-Hmm!
1405
01:00:57,365 --> 01:00:59,284
-It's one of his favourites.
1406
01:00:59,325 --> 01:01:00,702
-How would you know that?
1407
01:01:00,744 --> 01:01:04,330
-I meant more it's
everyone's favourite.
1408
01:01:04,372 --> 01:01:07,083
-Well, if you think
he'll like it, I'm in.

-You care for him, don't you?
1410
01:01:09,085 --> 01:01:10,545
-Is it that obvious?
1411
01:01:10,587 --> 01:01:13,173
-And what is it about
him you admire most?
1412
01:01:13,214 --> 01:01:15,342
-That's sort of a
strange question.
1413
01:01:15,383 --> 01:01:17,719
-I'm just curious.
1414
01:01:17,761 --> 01:01:20,138
-Well, um...
1415
01:01:20,180 --> 01:01:24,267
he's just not really what I
thought a Count would be like.
1416
01:01:24,309 --> 01:01:25,560
You know, it's funny,
1417
01:01:25,602 --> 01:01:27,121
there's actually not
much regality to him.
1418
01:01:27,145 --> 01:01:28,605
He's, uh...
1419
01:01:28,646 --> 01:01:32,108
he's kind, and he's
adventurous, and...
1420
01:01:32,150 --> 01:01:35,737
[chuckles] And he's
kind of a dork.
1421
01:01:35,779 --> 01:01:37,989
-I'll go grab you those bowls.

Do you have a thing
for the Count?

01:01:45,330 --> 01:01:47,016
-Tony, do you just lurk
around every corner?
1426
01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:49,042
- It's part of the job.
- Okay, it's kinda not.

with your write-up, right?

I mean, we're looking for juice,
not lovestruck admiration.
1431
01:01:57,634 --> 01:01:59,636
-Tony, I've really been
thinking about this,
1432
01:01:59,678 --> 01:02:02,764
and these articles we
write, we treat these people
1433
01:02:02,806 --> 01:02:05,183
like they only exist
for our amusement.
1434
01:02:05,225 --> 01:02:06,893
- Mm-hm.
- And their mistakes
1435
01:02:06,935 --> 01:02:08,687
and misfortunates
are a good thing.
1436
01:02:08,728 --> 01:02:10,438

And they're doing their best.

01:02:12,190 --> 01:02:15,068
-Yes, but they are royals, and
we're not and never will be.

like to peek behind the curtain.

bit less about them,

name for rice pudding?

right to do so.
