Original subtitles

Four pairs have been challenged to join a 6000 km race.

Let's go!

Over seven stages, they'll take them from Marrakesh

to their final destination on the Norwegian coast, Verdens Ende.

Let the games begin.

Equipped only with maps...

I wish I had a smaller map.

...and with a limited travel budget...

-We're about to go hungry. -We're out of money.

...the contestants must work...

-You get to mop the floor. -No.

...if they're to make it all the way to the finish line.

-Good job, boys. -You can't be serious.

-Help! Hello? -Dad?

This is Race Across the World: Norway.

-Innsbruck. -Perfect. Let's go to the station.

The pairs will go from Portofino, Italy, to Innsbruck, Austria.

-Does "can" mean it's canceled? -Yes, I'm sure it does.

Train shutdown and bad weather have brought them to a standstill.

It's absolutely insane. Hell.

Halfway through the leg, Markus and Ronny are nearest a checkpoint.

They're in Cremona.

Lothe and Ida are in Piancenza, Clas and Sindre are in Parma,

while Mia and Linni are in Maranello, furthest from Innsbruck.

MARANELLO, ITALY

1 DAY TO CHECKPOINT

She's asleep.

Now we're going to surprise Mia with her birthday breakfast.

One, two, three.

Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday, the world's greatest, All of Norway's Mia Gundersen

Holy crap!

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday, Mia!

-Happy birthday! -Oh, my God.

-What? -Linni.

We have to celebrate this, Mia.

-Who set this up? -I did.

-No, I'm in shock. -It's the least I can do, Mia.

Today's just gonna be cosy, not a rush.

Sounds like the best plan for a 63-year-old's birthday celebration.

Mia and Linni are off to a quiet start in Maranello.

All teams are in Italy

and are roughly neck and neck in the race to Innsbruck.

CREMONA, ITALY

-Over here and over there? -Right, and then left.

We're on our way to the train station in Cremona.

We're going to Lake Garda to work on a boat.

And as payment, in addition to money, we're going to get a trip

on Lake Garda. It's kind of exciting.

Volare.

Ronny and Markus set off towards Sirmione on Lake Garda.

It's fun to see a lot of new places,

but it feels like a fast one-night stand with these cities here.

So I feel a little dirty leaving here.

It's like, "I should have stayed for breakfast." You know?

-You?ve no idea what the town does. -Can?t even recall its name.

I've forgotten its last name and... "Was it one or two siblings?"

PARMA, ITALY

Clas and Sindre have decided to start the day with a job

at cheese manufacturer San Pier Damiani.

They've been invited to help make authentic Parmesan cheese.

Exciting. San Pier...

-Hello. -Hi.

-Welcome. -Thank you.

-Sindre. -Roberta. Nice to meet you.

-I'm Clas. -Roberta. Nice to meet you.

As the teams move further up in Europe, prices are rising,

so they rely on jobs to move forward.

-Do you know Parmesan cheese? -Yes.

-Do you like it? -It's really good.

We manufacture it here now, so maybe you can help us out a little.

It smells really strong. I know.

The smell here was really pungent.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

One of the pungent smells I've ever smelled.

The cheese sits here for 25 days, in water and salt.

You have to flip the cheeses like this.

In your hands now, you're handling over 500 euros,

so be thorough. You're in a bank now.

Wow, you're a natural cheese maker!

PIACENZA, ITALY

In Piacenza, Lothe and Ida are also about to start the day with a job.

Today, we're going to try to get as far as we can up to the checkpoint,

and then we've got to work first.

We're going to a torture museum and cleaning with a cloth, I think.

In here?

Oh, boy. This is a lot of stuff.

-Hi. -Hello.

Welcome to the International Museum of Torture.

Why "international"?

Because we have tools of torture from many places around the world.

This is the Public Humiliation Department.

A very important tool is the chastity belt.

When the man went to work,

he put it on his woman.

From the Viking era. I have one of these at home.

After the tour, Lothe and Ida will wash various instruments of torture.

Son of a...

It was Christianity at its best to do this shit,

but from the middle of the 16th century up until 1750,

they decided it wasn't a good idea to do the damn torture.

I mean, this is impossible.

Spiderwebs and...

It didn't look very pleasant.

But I guess someone did something that wasn't okay.

I'm sure it's clean enough. I guess no one's going to sit in this again.

Maranello is the home of sports car manufacturer Ferrari,

and Mia and Linni want to celebrate Mia's birthday properly.

Here we are.

That's crazy, Mia!

-Hi. -Hi!

-I'm Stefano. -I'm Linni. Nice to meet you.

I'm Mia. Nice to meet you.

-It's her birthday today. -Wow.

-Happy birthday! -Thank you.

Press it.

-Again. -Listen.

Okay.

Hear that sound.

I love birthdays, I love Mia, I love Ferraris.

We look good in this car, Linni.

I can finally feel sexy. That's what I've missed on this trip.

-How fast can I go? -It's up to you.

You're awesome, Mia!

I love it!

One of my favorite hobbies is driving cars.

It makes me happy.

Both Mia and I have benefited from this journey.

You grow a lot as human beings.

And our friendship has evolved.

It tickles in the muscles at the back here.

I thought it was going to collapse on the first leg,

"Who are you? I don't get anything."

But now, we couldn't be a better team.

No, no, no. Left. Slow down.

I had to show off a little, Mia.

Be careful.

Sorry, people. Here comes crazy.

Oh, my God, Mia. We're so lucky to have this experience.

Thank you! It was the best!

Now I'm really ready to just get on with this race, Mia.

Not with this Italian stallion, but with Puppen and Lillemor.

Now we're going to the train station in Modena,

and then we're going to get up to Trento.

-There we're gonna... -Make pizza!

-And make a few bucks. We need it. -Yeah, let's do it.

SIRMIONE, ITALY

So this is Italy's largest lake.

Ronny and Markus are in Sirmione, a medieval city on a peninsula

that stretches out on the southern edge of Lake Garda.

As well as making money from cleaning boats,

they're also taking a lake trip.

-Hello. -Hi.

-Ready to spend money with us? -We're going to work for you.

-You're going with him. -Nice to meet you, guys.

-I'm Ronny. Nice to meet you. -And you're going to clean this boat.

Perfect. We're going to get started right away.

I miss doing a bit of housework.

There's a lot of hard work that goes into making cheese.

As well as quality-proofing the cheeses,

Clas and Sindre have to help with washing vessels and dusting.

-Are you ready? -Yeah.

This is the real bank.

That made the smell a bit more...

The smell is different. It smells really good now.

When it's brined, it has a strong smell, but here...

Here, you can only smell the real cheese.

If we're ever going to buy an entire 45 kg wheel of cheese,

look for these marks. Then it's "first edition."

First, I got to call the bank and see if we can get a loan.

-That's a lot of money. -Yes, but also big taste experiences,

which we now know come from real craftsmanship.

-They?d have failed without us. -True.

I think now they can expect a pretty big economic boost in the future.

Thank you so much for your help.

Thank you so much for having us.

These are for you, and this is a gift for you.

You like aged cheese,

so my present is 45 months of aged cheese.

Thank you so much.

Eat it on your journey. It's very strong and gives you energy.

-I think you'll win. I hope so. -Thank you very much.

We're now going to...

...a museum in Verona.

To afford the ever-increasing expenses the further north they get,

Clas and Sindre are going to take another job at a museum in Verona.

With any luck, we might be able to get someone to pick us up.

-Yeah, that would be cool. -But I need to borrow a phone.

Clas has many friends in Austria, and if they reach his wife in Norway,

she can help them get a lift to tomorrow?s destination.

-Hey, Mom. -Hey.

Me and Dad have a little task for you.

We're going to Innsbruck tomorrow, and we'll be at the Brenner Pass...

At the train station at the Brenner Pass at a quarter past eleven.

If you can reach Alexander Stöckl or anyone else

to pick us up there, we can join the competition tomorrow.

-Yes. At 11.15? -Yes.

Now we have to hang up so we don't use up this guy's money.

Bye.

Thank you.

I'm enjoying myself.

I'm enjoying myself right now.

He sounds pleased.

Very good. Now it can go on the wall.

We're very grateful

that you worked for us and our museum,

so we'll give you some money for your work.

-Thank you. Have a great day. -Likewise.

-I guess we made 100 euros just now. -100 euros?

Now we're going to spend all that on trains.

-All the money we've made today? -Yeah. And then some.

It'll be a long train ride today too. How many hours will it be?

Four or five hours in total.

Lothe and Ida are heading to Bolzano, where they?ll stay the night.

Then they'll have good chances to

make it quickly to the Innsbruck checkpoint tomorrow.

Oh, my! What old friend is visiting? Is that the sun?

-Oh, old friend. There you are. -The sun is shining.

Have we done an okay job?

Very okay. Thank you, boys.

Thank you.

Now we can go out and see all the beauty in Sirmione.

-Thank you for your hard work. -Thank you.

We're going out to Lake Garda.

Hopefully he can tell us a little bit about what we can see along the way.

-It's nice. -We?re off now, and the sun?s out.

We?re about to drive under a castle built in the 1300s.

Oh, what a view!

Travelling with Ronny is like travelling with a dog that can talk.

Holy smokes, that's cool.

Everything's exciting and great.

We're going under here, yeah. Yeah!

That's dope. And it's narrow. Oh!

We could pull up the brochure, "The next checkpoint is in hell."

"I've never been there. I'm so excited.

Town, I can't believe we're going to hell!

Will the devil?s be there, with a pickaxe to drive into our backs?

It's gonna be delicious. I can't wait."

Now you have to sit down.

Wow, this is really tight.

But it's been really cosy.

Ronny and I worked very closely together on P3 Morning,

several hours in the morning over many years,

and then adulthood came after that.

-It was exciting. -Yeah, a lot of fun.

So this trip is like a restart of our relationship,

in a slightly new phase of life.

I feel like we've kind of reconnected a little bit,

and it's really nice because he's a guy that I really care about.

Ronny, I know what you always say in these moments.

"I'd love some coffee now."

I've found the thermos and brought some coffee from the hotel.

-No, you haven't. -I have.

I have two croissants too.

-Chocolate croissants from breakfast. -Are you serious?

Bring it down. We must, for God's sake, not forget to enjoy ourselves.

First comes the sun, and then the heat,

and then Markus has brought a pot of coffee from the hotel breakfast,

and chocolate croissants.

Can you take a picture?

Are you ready, boys?

Welcome to Sirmione.

One, two, three.

Looking at a 13th-century castle, bathing in Italy's largest lake,

the same day we're going into winter wonderland.

Yeah, in the Alps.

That's north, by the way. Let's go north.

After a refreshing bath, Ronny and Markus are ready for the Alps.

The plan is to head north to Bolzano.

Lothe and Ida are heading there too, and in Verona, they?ll change trains.

It'll be interesting to see who we meet next.

-Yeah. -It's a hub.

VERONA, ITALY

Verona, the city where "Romeo and Juliet" takes place.

It's on the UNESCO World Heritage Site,

and offers many historic sites and culinary experiences.

Sindre and Clas are also in Verona and heading to today?s second job.

We're going to Palazzo Maffei.

There's Sindre and Clas.

We can help you if you need any help.

Hi!

-Where are you going? -I don't know. We're going north.

We're going north tomorrow. Then we'll have...

A hostel called the Citadel or something.

-Sounds fun. -Enjoy the museum.

Good luck. See you at the station in Innsbruck.

They weren't going the way we were. They're staying for one night.

Yes, they're going to a museum.

That means they have a pretty much longer trip tomorrow.

If they're going to make it, they'll have to take an express train.

-Which is expensive. -They could afford that.

Hello.

Hi, welcome to the Palazzo Maffei. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

At the art museum, Clas and Sindre will try working as greeters.

A pile for you, and a pile for you.

Do you want to see some beautiful art?

No?

Have you ever been to Palazzo Maffei?

No? You should.

On a scale of one to ten compared to comfortable,

I'm kind of cruising more towards one right now.

-One in a vest, one in dirty pants. -I?ve got dirty pants too.

Would you like to see some art? No?

Well, then.

Wow. Bolzano.

Ronny and Markus will spend the night at Bolzano

before heading to Innsbruck.

We're now at Bolzano, just off the Austrian border,

and right in the middle of the Dolomite mountain range.

The medieval town of Bolzano was once part of Austria,

but was initiated into Italy in the early 19th century.

A lot of people here still speak German,

and everything in town has two names, one in Italian and one in German.

Those two seem to be a cheerful team.

-Excuse me, do you speak English? -Yes.

-Are you local? -Approximately.

Do you have a cell phone so you can do a search for us?

The cheapest place to spend the night in Bolzano tonight.

-Here's one for 40 euros. -Oh, gosh.

It's the cheapest. Iceman Room's Centrale.

We've been given the address of a very cheap hostel. Via Museo 35.

This is Via Museo 35, and it's not a hotel.

No.

-Hello. Do you speak English? -Yes.

We're looking for the hotel Iceman Room's.

-You'll have to order via your phone. -Oh, okay.

Can one of you order from the app for us?

Yes.

Ronny and Markus are getting help booking the hotel online

and get shown the right way.

-Good luck. -Thank you so much.

We'll win for you. Thank you!

Thank you. Goodbye.

Here we go.

It was behind this stand. No wonder we couldn't find it earlier.

What are they making here?

It's a hotel that won't be discovered.

-Are you going in there? -Iceman Room's.

310.

Oh, thank you.

I can see why he's learned that code.

Welcome!

Big room. I can take two steps in the room.

That's nice.

And then there's some dust particles all along the wall here.

It says on the note that we shouldn't worry.

It's just an insect repellent and stuff.

We don't spend a lot of money on it.

Forty-three euros including fees.

TRENTO, ITALY

-Here we are. -It?s twenty-five past five.

Then we just have to hurry to this job.

It's this way out.

Mia and Linni are at the foot of the Dolomites, in Trento.

At a local pizzeria, they'll be making authentic Italian pizzas.

Hello!

It's her birthday. Happy birthday.

Yes, this is a good job.

-Salute! -Skål!

I love this job.

We haven't started yet.

Today, we've been racing Ferraris.

-I have a Maserati. -You have a Maserati?

Yes.

They?re 22-inch rims. Or...

-What a pretty interior. -24-inch rims?

I mean, you're kidding?

-It's a Maserati. -Get in!

Is it okay to sit in a car with champagne?

-Look at that steering wheel! -Yeah.

Oh, my God! Look at that detail. That watch right there.

I think this suits us better than trains.

-Don't you agree? -If this suits us!

Maserati is one of the hottest cars in the world.

-Let's go to work. -Thank you.

-You'll have to teach me. And her. -You're a proper Italian pizza chef.

Watching this man process this dough,

I'm just like, "Oh, my gosh. He...

Can I please be your dough?"

Wow!

I couldn't help but think that more men should have learned that.

A little...

Let's try it.

No, not with force.

-With love. -Like when you touch a man.

Yeah.

Mia, you're absolutely brilliant.

I don't see how Mia could have a better birthday.

Italians are known to be quite sensual,

and you can tell this amazing pizza chef is really good with his hands.

He's holding Mia, and they're doing this sort of...

Not a mating dance, but a sort of making pizza dance.

I think these suit me very well. They make so many noises.

It's just like I've met my people.

Here we go.

Yes! Bravo.

Well done, Mia!

-Yeah, yeah. -Sure.

Ida and Lothe are in Bolzano, looking for a cheap place to live.

-We need a QR code. -We don't have a QR code.

Holy shit.

There are acquaintances.

There are acquaintances? Who is it?

-Hello. -Good friends, good friends.

-Are you okay? -Is that possible?

It's possible. Good day, sir. Hello.

-Are you staying at Iceman Room's? -Yes.

-Will you help us get there? -Yes.

Thank you!

-Then it'll be close tomorrow again. -Yes.

-Thank you so much. -You're welcome.

-Hi. -We need one room for two.

You have to book online.

-Isn't it possible without... -No, everything is online.

-Can you do that for us? -I can't book anything on the PC.

Can you book a room for us and we'll pay for it?

-Yes, I can. -You got it? Thank you.

We're lucky that guy was here.

It's a complicated system. The whole thing down here is annoying.

I'll give you room number 10.

Thank you.

We only had to spend 39 euros.

But we've spent 100 euros today.

-With trains and... -With everything. I think.

And we've earned a hundred. So we've broken even.

-That's what I'm talking about. -For the first time and the last.

Here we go.

At the museum in Verona, Clas and Sindre will now

make sure no one touches the artwork,

a task Sindre takes very seriously.

Thank you.

Now I'm on patrol. I patrol the museum

making sure people are on their best behavior.

And apparently, if anyone needs help, they can ask me.

Now you look helpful.

Just making sure no one does anything bad.

Typical for the museum to be a little quiet.

Quite a spread in the jobs today,

from working as loaders at a dairy this morning

to art experts this evening.

Here you go. Thank you very much. It was a pleasure.

I'm very happy that it was well paid.

Today, we've actually made 250 euros. That's nice.

302?

Look at this. This is awesome. Beautiful.

He said we could get it for 80 euros. It's dirt cheap.

Yeah, I know.

Three hundred, four hundred, five hundred, 1000...

-So we're up to... nearly 1300. -And there's a coin here too.

Okay, neat? There.

-One margarita. -One margarita.

-Not small, but... -Normal margarita.

-Okay. -Okay?

-It's done. -Nice order!

A pizza for that gentleman.

We've landed ourselves with the best man from Naples in the world.

Which is in the far north of Italy.

He doesn't speak a word of English, so it's a bit challenging,

but damn, we're enjoying ourselves.

-Okay? -Thank you so much!

This is an unforgettable birthday. I mean that from the heart.

Then we have to go because we have to find a hotel.

-Yeah. -Yeah, yeah.

It's been a successful birthday for Mia,

and to perfectly end the day,

Guiseppe offers to drive them all the way to Bolzano tomorrow.

Not the Maserati?

Yes!

-Tomorrow? -Yes.

Okay, then we'll be here at eight tomorrow.

No way.

And that makes us get there faster.

We're going to drive Maserati halfway, and then take that train.

-Holy crap, can it be any better? -Oh, my God, no.

-Holy crap, that's cool! -Yeah, that's gonna be cool.

There is our ride for tomorrow. You know what I'm saying, guys?

All pairs are well on their way to the next checkpoint in Innsbruck,

which they shall reach tomorrow.

Mia and Linni are in Trento, Lothe and Ida are in Bolzano,

along with Markus and Ronny,

while Clas and Sindre are in Verona, and the farthest from Innsbruck.

DAY 16

CHECKPOINT DAY

We?re at the station in Verona and taking the train to Brenner Brennero,

where we're picked up by Alexander Stöckl's mate.

All he knows is there's going to be two guys with green bags

wondering if anyone can give us a ride.

Now we're going to try everything we can to win

until we get past the finish line.

BOLZANO, ITALY

Few things beat stepping onto freshly cleaned floors.

There are the lunatics, too. Are you ready?

Good morning.

-Did you get a map? -We're going the same way.

Yes, that's where we're going. Straight ahead.

Let's go.

We woke up today to Lothepus bringing us coffee.

I don't know if they know it, but we're in alliance now, so...

That's just great.

Wait, Lothepus!

-You know we're in alliance now? -We are?

-Yes. -Okay.

-What's the name of our alliance? -Best in Testing, probably.

Best in Testing, yeah.

-Are we going over there? -I don't know.

-I think so. -Like this and like that?

Here we are. The train station.

Are they queuing up?

-They're queuing up there. -But they... Yeah.

We'll have to do it then.

In Trento, Mia and Linni

have returned to the pizzeria where they worked yesterday.

So good to see you!

They?ll get a lift from boss Guiseppe all the way to Bolzano.

With two teams already in Bolzano,

Mia and Linni need to get there as quickly as possible.

It's a magnificent piece of transportation here.

This is how two queens and princesses are driven.

-And the most beautiful man. -Yes.

-It's Giuseppe and Maserati. -Yes.

-About 42 euros. -Okay. Direct train?

-I guess so. -Go over and ask if it's direct.

I have to do everything.

You're the one who can speak a foreign language, right?

Like, should I be traveling alone?

Then I'd still be fooling around in Marrakesh on a horse and buggy.

I don't know how to do that.

-Do you remember what it's called? -No.

-Flossing. -Flossing?

Ida's teaching me how to floss.

It's something new.

We have to switch trains.

But they printed out one for Markus and them too.

Markus? Markus? Here.

-You can't help them, honey. -I have to.

-Oh, yeah, it says... -We have ten minutes to switch...

-No, 11 minutes. -11 minutes, yeah.

They're our competition, after all.

Sometimes on a trip, you have to make friends too.

We also have tickets to Innsbruck.

-Bye, Bolzano. -It was nice in Bolzano.

We're missing eight, three, and one.

I think it's very nice. You unplug your head, and...

If my head starts making noise, I have to meditate.

My everyday life could have been better doing that,

because it's pretty pushy, especially with work, though.

It has been for many years.

As a former ski jumper, and later sports director for the ski team,

Clas has spent countless hours of his time on ski jumping.

I've had my 50 years in the ski jumping game.

I joined at 4 or 5 and have met people from all over the world.

I've met some of the greatest athletes in our sport of all time.

I'm so happy to have been able to be part of such a journey

that I could have been, really.

But the idyll cracked when Clas clashed with the ski federation.

In the winter of 2024, Clas resigned after 20 years as sports director.

It was really about how I was feeling personally.

When good friends see that you're not doing well,

before you realize it yourself... There was no other way then.

Then it's not hard anymore,

but before that, it was so hard that I couldn't do it.

It's just gratitude for having been a part

of a sport where the volunteers put in an amazing job,

and some of the athletes have done things

that have put a bit of a strain on the tear ducts, so it's...

No, it's simply been a fantastic journey.

Grazie.

Mia and Linni have made it to the train station in Bolzano.

Bye!

They're behind the other three pairs,

all heading for Innsbruck.

They'll need to catch the train to keep up with the rest.

-12.36. -Yeah, okay. Thank you.

-Oh, no. -Oh, well.

Mia and Linni arrived three minutes late,

and all the time they've saved to get a private driver to Bolzano

seems to have been lost.

Honestly, the way Giuseppe rode in that amazing Masarati,

and the way we've been rushing to catch that train,

it's a real bummer to lose it by three minutes.

Well, it's Puppen and Lillemor's luck, isn't it?

Oh, my God.

I'm so excited about that place. Innsbruck.

-It's like Tyrol land. -The Troll land?

-Tyrol. -Tyrol, yeah.

-Oh, yeah, like yodels? -Yeah, they yodel there, you know.

I thought there was something in German over there.

Is that Austrian or German? Is that a language of its own? What the hell?

Alpine language?

Überschreiten der Gleise verboten. Or vonbroten.

-What does that mean? -"If you get run over,

I feel sorry for you."

-I don't think it says that. -I'm not very good at German.

-Did you have it in school? -No.

-What language did you have? -Well, I had...

...every Friday off in middle school.

-Did you have a exemption? -Yes.

I was working. Every Monday, or whatever.

I couldn?t be bothered to go to school. I just drove the excavator.

That's why I didn't learn English either.

-But you've become a celebrity now. -A celebrity?

-It's not like I'm a celebrity. -You are.

I think it's a good idea to never go and think...

It's not for just anyone.

You lose a lot of time with your kids and your family.

Yeah. I guess that's been the biggest consequence.

-For the kids. -Yeah.

There?s a lot of travelling. And every time something happens,

everybody wants to talk to you.

Obviously, there's been some challenges

since he got so well known. And it hasn?t been... yeah.

I've seen the flip side of the coin.

I guess it was after Farmen when you were gone the most.

That's when the bomb went off. I have a life before and after Farmen.

After Farmen we didn't have much contact.

When I was a little younger, I couldn't walk with him

without a bunch of people coming over.

I found it so annoying,

because when I was first with him, I didn't get that attention

that I wanted and needed, I think.

You always said it was gonna be better next year.

"Next year, it'll be better." Whenever I was sad.

I was angry and sad about it for a very long time.

And in the end, I just accepted that it wasn't going to get any better.

No. I get it.

I lost a lot of my life too.

I had a manager who had booked me in a year.

I lost control of time.

I lost control of my whole life, so it's just...

It was just sad, and...

I just traveled and traveled. I mean, I was never home.

That it affected you lot is really not good at all.

I see today that the choices I made were not right.

Others control your whole life, and it affects the kids

and everything around you.

I'm glad I'm done with my music career and all that hassle.

Otherwise, it would be a living hell.

-Yeah, I think so. -It was too much hassle and pressure.

Sad it turned out this way, but we?ve got to make the best of it.

We haven't hung out a lot these past years,

so the fact that we're together every day now for a long period of time

is pretty good. You feel like you're getting some time that you've lost.

-I have to do the best that I can. -Yeah.

I need to make the most of it now,

and then we'll have to come back and get some more follow-up on it.

Let's see if we can see the Bråthen sign.

-The exit is here. -Yeah.

Clas and Sindre are in Breno, and while they've been traveling,

Clas's wife has contacted former ski jumper Alexander Stöckl,

who has arranged transport on to Innsbruck.

There! Hello. Hi.

-Hello. -Sindre.

Bråthen. Perfect.

How long will it take us to get to Innsbruck?

-Half an hour. -Perfect. Good.

How did you end up here? Was it Alex who called you?

Yes, Alex is a friend of a friend of mine.

And he asked me.

I don't know Alex.

He called me yesterday. "Hi, it's Alex. I need your help."

-"Okay, do you need my help?" -That's very kind of you.

Ronny and Markus and Ida and Lothe are also approaching checkpoints.

The three pairs are now neck and neck.

Look at those mountains over there.

It's getting nicer and nicer.

It's been a dream of mine to train into the Alps.

This is awesome.

INNSBRUCK, AUSTRIA

At the heart of the Alps is the city of Innsbruck,

the capital of the state of Tyrol.

Checkpoint is at the pavilion at the Kaiserjager Museum,

and the pair who arrive first starts the next leg.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

-Are we going out here, Ronny? -I guess.

Finally, we're in Innsbruck. The paradise of the Alps.

It's colder here, but inside us, it's warmer.

There?s a fire there that?s glad to be part of another sprint.

Now, I can feel my heartbeat at its highest.

It's a bit like when I was jumping in Innsbruck.

Here, there are taxis too.

Pavilion at the...

The Kaiserjäger Museum.

Okay, the Kaiserjäger Museum.

Do you know where the Kaiserjäger Museum is?

Museum, yeah. No, that was wrong. Museum. Back.

-Excuse me? -Can you drive us to this place?

Do you know where it is?

We can ask somebody else.

Bergisel. Kaiserjäger...

-Yeah. -Let's hurry.

Here's what we got.

And one letter back.

-I? -No, one letter back.

-Egerstrasse. -Can we get a ride?

Oh, boy. Amateur.

-That way. -That way?

That's a 35-minute walk, Ronny.

Eleven minutes by cab. If we see a taxi, we'll take it.

Can you give us a ride? We're in a race.

We need to get there as fast as possible.

Thank you.

Eleven minutes by taxi. I'm anxious to see where the others are now.

We didn't see the others there. Maybe they got a private driver.

They're sneaky, you know.

-I think we're off to a good start. -Yeah, I think we are.

Until that bus driver blocked us.

Of course, a green bus had to cause a ruckus.

The winning instinct woke up when we didn?t see anyone else there, but...

You never know.

Six past twelve. So this is so exciting.

Is that the pavilion? Yeah, I see the pavilion. There.

So this is the one.

-They couldn't have been faster. -Yes, they could.

Then it must have been a private car.

There was no way to get a taxi faster than us.

Is it in here?

-Is it here? -Yes.

Is it here, I wonder? Tyrol panorama. We keep going up and up.

-This is the time of our lives, man. -Is that the pavilion?

I see the book!

-Is that the book? Really? -Let's hit it at the same time.

Shall we check, Ronny?

-I'm sure Clas has jumped... -Clas has been here already.

-Let's see... -We have to turn to the right side.

"Welcome to Portofino." Oh, an old number one.

"Welcome to Innsbruck."

-Are you ready? -Yeah. Go for it.

I mean...

-Now we're on a flow here. -Really?

It's completely empty.

The feeling when we open the book and there's no names in it...

My stomach tickled a little bit.

No, no, no. Damn it!

Here comes Sindre and Clas. It's so routine.

I have to write, so they don't have time to write before us.

Bloody hell.

-Hello. -Did you have a private driver?

-Oh, no! -Well done.

Hi! Welcome!

Clas and Sindre are just half a minute behind us.

And it was a bit like, "Darn it, they'd deserve to win by now."

They're always up there, though.

I thought we'd come in third, because I thought I saw...

There they come.

Crap. Damn it!

-How is that possible? -How have they done it?

Bloody brats.

Hello!

-Hello. -Holy crap, you guys too?

Well done.

How did you get here so fast?

Let's move up a bit.

Next time, it'll be second, and the last time will be first.

What the hell. Let's do this. Then we'll be done with that.

-We're ready for the next one. -Yes, don't worry about it.

There's a new sheriff in town.

Change the hat. You take the hat, I'll take the hat.

No, no, no. That's not right.

It's not right.

Pride comes before a fall.

I think you?ve messed with the clock or something.

Well, congratulations. It was very close.

Damn.

-Our first European taxi ride. -Oh, my god. That was fun.

There. Now we're here. Mia, we have to check.

The Pavilion by the Kaiserjäger Museum.

Taxi?

I can't find a taxi.

No, but we're in the wrong place.

-There isn't a single taxi. -What kind of...

This is so typical.

We're losing it.

I think we should walk back to the train station.

I think that's smart. We didn't see those taxis.

-There's a taxi. -Then we'll try there.

Excuse me?

That was good.

Let's hurry. Thank you, sir.

The Pavilion by the Kaiserjäger Museum.

-The Kaiserjäger Museum? -Yeah.

-Here, I don't think anyone's here. -It's okay to hope, Mia.

-But we've had a wonderful trip. -Yeah.

There's the book.

Okay. One, two, three.

Okay. Let's check it out.

Fifth checkpoint... Yeah, we knew that.

It's the first time we got a last place.

And it was so worth it,

because we've driven Maserati, Ferrari...

We've lived absolutely beautifully and enjoyed it so much.

Oh, Mia... We kind of had to get a feel of the last place, too.

It was a steady finish at Innsbruck.

For Clas, it?s not just the yellow book and checkpoint that matter here.

He has many memories from the jump from his time as athlete and chief.

He wants to bring Sindre here and share some of his life with him.

Now we're inside one of the most famous

and the best arena for audiences in the World Cup in jumps.

I'll show you where I've spent a lot of my time,

which I also have a little bit of guilt that I haven't spent on you

and the other people in our family.

I've been traveling and living my dream.

It's been an amazing journey, but it's come at a price.

As a result of choices I made, I self-destructed a lot.

When I was young, I did stupid things

and made very little wise choices from time to time.

I've thought a lot about what it was like for my parents

to get the phone in 1989 after me and one of my best friends

had been driving drunk at Hinterzarten training camp.

I think it was very close

that I could've...

...ended my days there.

I guess nobody really thought that we...

Thought that I survived.

What I did to my parents and...

...my brother and...

It sucks, I guess. But...

I don?t think I?ve ever told everyone I feel this, because...

...I am...

...sorry.

A hug, Dad.

I feel pretty empty, really, but...

But it always feels good to have said something...

...from the bottom of my heart.

It wasn't supposed to be like this. This isn't what I had planned.

It was very nice to have a talk with my dad.

It's nice to be on the hill with him and have a proper chat.

It's not too late to do anything about it.

-We can both try that. -Yeah.

We can start by winning a few stages of this race.

I wanted to join this so that me and Dad would get to

make up for lost time, which happened because of me,

and because he's been traveling a lot.

So we can have a proper boys' trip together.

He's been a really good dad. I don't want him to think otherwise.

Hygiene is important.

-We're cutting it really close. -I know, but...

We just took one away.

Imagine if we started with this in Marrakesh.

Oh, my God, it's so fast!

That's the definition of taking a hit.

It's a dumb suggestion.

-Are we too late again? -Yeah, we are.
