Next week we might see the first snow of the year so it's time to put on your snow tires.

Now sports. "A defeat after a draw", writes Dagbladet about Helena Mikkelsen's resignations from Varg.

Michael Ellingsen took over the team but after two more losses...

Camilla?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello!

I'm from the Olafsen & Bråstad inventory.

I won't keep you long, I just wanna ask you a question.

Ok...

You think it's important to know where you are in the world?

Yes, of course... - Then I got what you need. Wait.

Look... I got a surprise.

For sophisticated men and women, looking for a way in the storm of life... Gundersen World Atlas.

I don't need a world atlas. - Take a look at it... the print and the colors...

All the details... this is Europe.

Here's Denmark... the Suez Canal... stupid Lichtenstein...

Could you take your atlas and leave?

Otherwise I'll call the police. - It'll look so good on your bookshelf.

We're about to move anyway. - Moving won't solve your problems.

I won't be carrying along 100 pound of paper!

Everyone wants this atlas. It's heavy but it's because it's comprehensive.

I guess so... - So you want it?

I'm not interested, ok? - Ok.

Have you ever heard about Torgrim?

Who walked backwards all the time? - No I haven't.

He used to get up every morning and go for a walk on the mountains.

One day he just couldn't walk... you think it was psychosomatic? - I have no idea.

So he thought: "I might go backwards."

Isn't it terrible having to walk backwards all your life?

But had good eyes and walking backwards he noticed every detail of the way he'd always gone.

He lived like that all his life and never got a scratch.

He died at 98 from chronic bronchitis.

He knew the ways of life much better than us who go head first.

Hi, I'm calling from Grindveien 12. A man broke into my house...

I'll go. - Thanks... and take the atlas, I'm not interested.

You can keep it. - I'm not interested!

Keep it as a farewell gift from me. - Alright... fine.

Have a good night then... Helena Mikkelsen.

It's a funeral today at Tangsrud Arena.

Bodø/Glimt keeps running... Varg has nothing for them... and it's one more score for the northern guests!

Varg has nothing to hope for!

We can't let this affect us! It's not over yet!

You have no business here. - What the hell are you doing out there?!

Can we talk later? - It's a disgrace!

This is the most pathetic display I have ever witnessed in my life!

Bjørn. Out! - What he's saying?

He's just upset about the Israel-Palestine situation.

You can't expect results right away! It takes time to rebuild a team!

Plus we don't have Adrian! - It's not easy to play out there... the stands are almost empty.

This has nothing to do with the system, this is lack of will!

Why do I have to come down here and throw things around?!

People are laughing about you! Is this how you wanna be remembered?

Out!

We need a head coach and the girls admire you.

You'll be with them for a few years, at least until the Under-21 World Cup.

Will you consider it? - Absolutely. I'll have to think about it...

Hi, Helena! - You're gonna take the job?

I don't know, I'm just visiting. - You led Trondheim Ørn to the Champions League semi-finals!

That quarter-final was a perfect game! - It would be great if you joined us.

We're much better than Varg! - I bet you are.

It's a great group of girls.

Nothing with dried fruit in it. - I know.

She'll tell you she's not allergic to Nugatti but it's a lie.

Good thing you told me.

How much can you win? - First prize is 1.2 million euros.

You gotta get it! Play a couple of aces.

Good tip. See you on Thursday.

Hi, dad. - Hi.

What do you want for dinner? Provided it's pizza.

But without pineapple. - We're not psychopaths, are we?

What are you doing? - I gotta warm up before doing any lifting.

Hi.

Your mom asked me to help her with the boxes. - Good.

It's heavy... what's in it? - The atlas.

Do we own an atlas?

Helena, what are your plans after Varg?

It depends... I was thinking of Trondheim but I also have an offer in Oslo.

Oslo? - We only talked. It's the female Under-17 team.

Were you planning on telling me or should I just pack and be quiet?

I would have told you if it was anything concrete but...

But...? - 17 year old girls.

What's wrong with 17 year old girls? Are 40 year old men better?

You wanna go to Oslo? - No but it would be nice training girls who might go to the World Cup...

...rather than training Vindbjart FK and having to explain to them how to play football.

So you don't want Oslo. - What does it matter what I want?

I just want you to make it. Trondheim, Oslo, Alta... you name it.

First you wanted to stay a bit longer then you wanted to leave right away!

What is it you want?

Camilla, what do you want?!

Can we go to Trondheim? - Finally! Than you!

Another loss for the Sunnmøre team. Look like relegation is almost inevitable now.

If they lose again next Wednesday, it's gonna be official.

Adrian! Hi. - Hi.

Did they see you? - No... I'd rather not be seen.

We lost again.

How you're doing? - Still three weeks for the toe.

And then...? - Play for Michael? I don't know.

I don't think you should play for anyone. - Should I quit?

You've always been playing for someone else. Your father, me...

Maybe you should try and play for yourself.

I hope I didn't hurt you but I understand if you had enough.

It wasn't your fault. - Yes... I made you a promise and I didn't keep it.

Sorry about that.

See you.

Hi. What are you doing here?

Am I the first one? Where's the others?

What others? - What are you joking?

I smell sausages, chicken and turkey. Can I have one sausage?

It's too few, I'll make some more.

You live like a monk, I like it. - What's going on here?

We're sorry to bother you but we need to figure out how to win Wednesday's game.

It's no longer my job. - You know what we must do, you planned it for weeks.

It's Michael's job, I can't go behind his back.

Plus I don't have time. We're in the middle of moving back home.

You really don't have to move.

Have you been there since you quit? - No.

You left something? - Just a jacket and some notebooks.

How... how's going with you and Adrian? Are you...

No, we haven't been in touch lately.

You feel like going back home? - Maybe a little.

I don't think I told you but... remember the game against Aalesund?

Damn Aalesund? - Yes, damn Aalesund.

Remember when you and Steffen left? - Yes.

When you were gone, Sissel Renate kissed me. - Are you serious?

There was nothing else but it was fun.

Remember to invite me to the wedding. - Only if you make manchego toasts.

Toasts in a wedding? - They're delicious.

Ok.

Damn Aalesund...

What is it? - It's... I just remembered...

I think I left those things at school. - Ok.

I'll get those back.

I need time to convince the Board. Tangsrud will push them as hard as he can.

To sum it up...

I give my notes to Michael and let him have the credit if you win, while I wait to get back the job I just done.

Does it sound reasonable? - No, it does not.

I'll suggest they fire me. - They'd just go with another man, this is our only chance.

We understand if you're gonna say no.

At least I won't be seeing that awful 4-4-2 again.

Hi. - Hi.

I've been thinking a lot about our new situation.

Something came up. - What?

There's a chance I get my job back.

I'll help them in the last games and Espen will try to convince the Board.

Maybe we won't have to move. At worst, we still have a few weeks anyway.

What the hell, mom!

What? - You said we were gonna move!

You said you were done here! - I didn't know this was gonna happen.

Can't you get it over with so we can go? - But, sweetheart... what's wrong?

I'm sorry... once I had nothing to cry for.

You have every right to cry but what's it about? - I don't know...

We can move anyway.

I'm tired.

How about a long and warm Christmas vacation?

I'm tired too. - That would be nice.

Where would you like to go? - I don't know.

Find a place then.

Possibly with great food and great beaches.

Then we'll go, whatever happens here. - Ok.

There might be a bit of confusion in the house for the next few weeks.

Why? - I can't be seen at the training so we'll have to do it here.

Ok, boys. 12 points in 4 games, that's what we're going for.

We can win all games. Let's take 'em one at a time.

Kristiansund on Wednesday. Solid but predictable.

We gotta pressure Isaksen on the right field.

If we force them to play on the left, they'll make mistakes and it'll be our chance.

Sandefjord sucks.

If we can get Gunnar and the fans on the stands, it'll be a huge advantage for us.

Also they hate damp fields. - It's not gonna rain.

We don't need rain, we have Eddie.

Eddie!

You don't need to do it this week. - But there's a game this Sunday.

How damp can you get the field?

Sunnmøre... always raining.

It's all ready for Varg-Sandefjord at the Tangsrud Arena.

After a tough start, you seem to have cracked the code. What was the key to all that?

"Never change a winning team". We've had a winning attitude the entire season.

You've gone back to Mikkelsen's defensive style?

Absolutely. She knew what she was doing and it's been a shame to have lost her.

Great job last Sunday, bring all that to Drammen.

Luckily for us, Petterson is still injured. Without him, they'll play a 4-5-1 formation.

They're weaker in attack and in defending against free kicks. That'll be our weapon.

We see Petterson is back on the field.

Word was he was injured but he's playing today against Varg.

His presence might be instrumental in shifting the balance of the game.

Petterson is dominating everywhere on the field.

He's taken charge of the midfield. Will Varg find any countermeasure?

They're still in the game but they need to find a way around him.

Guys, listen! Mons!

You're leaving Petterson too much room! - He gets away!

What if we try to upset him, Michael? Fuck with him a little bit...

Michael... why don't you change so you can have a word with him?

Change? What you mean? - Perhaps you two might have an argument...

What you're suggesting is crazy.

It's not that we love the idea. - You can do it for the team, can't you?

What the hell... - Michael Ellingsen is putting himself on the field.

He's still convinced he can make the difference. Long fly balls will drop over Strømsgodset's area.

How's going with Elise? She's still working for TV2?

Last time I saw her she said she was gonna work for Eurosport.

She still likes it from behind?

What happened... - That's a foul!

This is clearly a penalty kick for Varg.

Red card for Petterson! This is a key moment for the game's outcome.

Mario Diarra is gonna take this penalty kick.

A perfect kick! How important this score is gonna be?

Varg is ahead 1-0!

And then Mario punishes them. - Amazing!

He's cold, isn't he? - Yes, unbelievable.

It's his technique that...

Hello everyone. I know you're busy so I'll get straight to the point.

We got a job application we need to take into account.

Her name is Helena Mikkelsen. She thinks she's the right person for the job and frankly I think that too.

Is this some kind of joke? - No, see for yourself.

Michael has done a great job and if he keeps on like this...

I'm here to resign. - What??

Yes, it's a shame but at the same time we're lucky to have a replacement ready.

This can't be true. - We changed course thanks to her.

She shaped the team and studied the opponents. In fact, she's been the real head coach all along.

This is really hard to believe... - But it's true.

Ask any of the players.

It was actually odd that you suddenly went back to the old defensive system.

But it worked.

You're all here already. What's this about?

You know something? - What?

Are you serious? - Absolutely.

Michael?

That's what the town wants. The fans and the players.

If we make this now... - Why did you invite me then?

Because you're so important for the team. I...

I hope we can arrange this in a way that we can all agree on.

There's no need to tell you what's going on.

People are losing their jobs. Your brother, Anita.

Some of them could have stayed but I had different priorities.

It may seem too much letting 40 or 50 good men go just to keep the Club afloat.

But I always thought that we, as a society, are able to stand as long as we got something to hold us together.

You wanna quit your job, Michael, and you have every right to do it.

But for us, letting the Club we love become a media circus...

...more concerned about politics than actual football, that will not bring people together.

What? That's exactly the opposite of what's happening.

Then we must agree to disagree, Espen.

You have the final word but let me say this:

if she comes back, I'm out of here.

Then you'll enjoy your freedom.

We can't do this, Espen.

The stadium has debts. It'll take 10 or 15 years to pay it all back.

We'll get new sponsors. - Not at our present level!

You can cover 20% at most but then you also have the team expenses.

Not just the first team, all sectors...

The other sectors suffer 'cause he only invested in the First Division team.

I'll get new funds to invest where we most need.

You'll end up with 11 men playing for free. - With her, we'll be more appealing to sponsors.

Not if you relegate. - We won't.

Four years ago I was sitting right here.

We'd just lost 2-1 against Strømmen in 3rd Division.

We talked about bringing back the Club to the place it deserved: First Division.

But now we gotta ask ourselves what kind of Club we're looking to be.

We'll never become Rosenborg or Vålerenga... we are Varg.

We got to First Division not for our money. We never had a rich uncle to buy us the best players.

We got there because of our strong will.

Because the Club had passion and fun.

Not just the first team, the youth teams also, all the way to the top.

If you have will and passion, you belong here. That's what we live for...

...and that's why Helena Mikkelsen is one of us.

By signing her, we'll show the rest of the world what kind of Club we are.

And this decision... we take it right now.

Let's take a vote.

Who believes Helena Mikkelsen is the right person for us and for Varg...

...raise their hand.

Hello? - Hi.

We made it. - Ok. Thank you.

See you on the field. - Yes, see you.

The story of the day is Helena Mikkelsen coming back as Varg head coach after only two months.

Former coach, Michael Ellingsen, dropped the bomb during a press interview.

Both the Club and I realized we'd made a mistake.

I've been working closely with Helena lately and we got a chance to stay in First Division.

Wow!

You got her back? - What will you do now?

Look after you.

Mom said you can look after us only in the weekends.

She said that? That's not true.

You won't get rid of me that easily.

Maybe the worst thing about losing my job was...

I never mentioned it but it's good for the spirit...

...being close to 18 fine boys without their clothes on.

So what's up? You look fantastic! - Helena, we know we look fantastic...

...but the question is which one looks best? He's out of the contest.

See? I'm feeling better already.

You didn't answer the question. Which one looks best? Helena!

You saw who she looked at last?

She took a look around and went straight out!

Hey. - Hey.

How's the toe? - It's going well.

...and Stilson scores! It's 1-0!

Austnes for Stilson... he shoots and scores!

Diarra finds Ellingsen... goes around the goalkeeper...

LAST GAME OF THE SEASON - VARG-MOLDE

Camilla... I'm too nervous, I can't make it...

Take a deep breath then we'll go in. - Just call me and tell me how it went.

Come on, you'll be fine.

Ok, boys. I won't say much.

We did our homework. Just follow the plan, you know what to do.

One last fight. We'll make it.

If damn Aalesund do their job against Glimt, we'll be in First Division next year too.

Come on.

Helena... is that all? - No, come on.

There's really not much to say.

The stands are packed, including the 10 people in this town who don't like football.

There are high expectations but...

...we should send them home 'cause they'll be disappointed.

Expectations...

They're here to witness the last great game.

The season finale, when we fight to make our miracle happen.

That's what they're here for, a thrilling experience.

They won't have it. There'll be no thriller because...

...we're simply gonna win. We're superior.

I went through our whole season.

We went through so much shit, a lot of which was my fault.

We're a Club that had to fight every week to stay afloat.

But here today, we're more than a Club. We are...

We're a Team... and as such, nothing can bring us down.

So enough talk. I don't want you to relax just because you know we're gonna win, ok?

Get out there and do this!

We're about to witness a true drama today.

Today everything will be decided. Varg must win in hope to stay in First Division...

...and this is their last chance to do it.

Camilla... please, tell me it's gonna be alright. - It's gonna be alright.

Austnes kick starts the game. In 90 minutes we'll have a verdict.

Stilson sees Kilanger. It's a good one.

Kilanger looks in the middle and sees Otto Halsen...

...and Varg start building their dream!

Stilson. Great pass to Austnes... then for Diarra...

Varg's taking charge of their destiny!

Austnes dribbling... Diarra wants it but he goes for Halsen...

It's a give and go... Austnes has it...

...and it's 3-0! What a great first half!

Varg's in total control of this game!

No! Damn Aalesund! - What's going on?

They're losing. We haven't come this far to end like this!

But if we win... - Aalesund must at least tie the game or we'll drop down.

Austnes from the corner.

Ellingsen on the second post... it's 4-0! Varg did their part of the job.

But now we learn Bodø/Glimt took the lead against Aalesund.

This means relegation for Varg. They depend on Aalesund tying the game to stay in First Division.

Glimt seem in control of the game. Still two minutes of extra time left.

Glimt keep the ball trying to run out the clock.

They're freezing the ball, they're also fighting to stay in First Division.

Halvorsen protects the ball but Hestnes takes it away from him...

Passes to Brattskær, who looks around and sees only Glimt players.

He might lose the ball but he's taken down! Rolfsen is fiercely protesting!

The Ref consults with his assistant... yes! It's a penalty kick for Aalesund!

It's former Varg's player Eivind Brattskær who's gonna take this penalty kick.

If he scores, his former team will remain in First Division.

We imagine he's got a heavy burden on his shoulders right now.

Congratulations, Varg fans! We're still in First Division!

Thank you, Brattskær! We're here to stay!

I just need to change and have something to eat first.

I'll see you soon.

Hello!

Camilla!

Camilla?

Camilla?

Hi, mom. Congratulations on your victory, you're great.

I can't stay here anymore. I feel lonely.

I could have talked to you, you might have said things to convince me but it's not right.

I'm your biggest fan and I felt I had to be there for you...

...but now I feel I gotta be somewhere else, for myself.

I thought you'd be alone at first, that's why I came along.

But after seeing a whole football team sitting in our living room, I think you'll be alright after all.

I hope you won't get bored being by yourself but if you do, here's something to help you:

A blonde walks into an emergency room with a crocodile under her arm.

The nurse says it's not her responsibility and sends her home.

She took it home a tied it to a rope but the crocodile got loose and ate her while she was sleeping.

She was only 14 years old.

Good luck next season, mom. I'm proud of you. Camilla.

Camilla!

Camilla...?
