S8.E1 ∙ Det taler vi ikke om
The summer of 1941. The German occupying power has commandeered the neighbouring hotel but that does certainly not keep the regular guests away. As Edward Weyse says: If we just pretend they are not there, then they are not there. The popular actor is otherwise writing his memoirs, Merchant Madsen is keen to rediscover the joys of eroticism, all the while Mrs. Frigh has completely repressed the fact that a marriage swindler tricked her of a fortune last summer. Everything looks promising but then a Communist scene painter, two German soldiers with binoculars and an orthopaedic surgeon from Gentofte turn everything upside down.
S8.E2 ∙ Chokolade og flødeskum
Amanda gets the barbwire off her beach at a price - coffee and cake to 8 young, German soldiers. Weyse's memoirs suffer from writer's block. Claus reveals himself to Bertha. Alice and Bertha fetch the mysterious bag.
S8.E3 ∙ Brevet
A letter to the young, German soldier causes big problems. Bertha volunteers to spy. Weyse's ex won't write his memoirs but has an advice. Bertha and Alice have a talk about the bag and Emil.
S8.E4 ∙ Noget for noget
Merchant Madsen feels complicit in the young German soldiers' desertion, but it won't be the last time their paths meet. In an attempt to repress the fact that his wife is on the run with the Communist theatre painter Svend Damm, actor Weyse throws himself energetically over his memoirs, but when the police come knocking on his door everything changes. At the same time, Madsen's faithful companion August Molin arrives with daunting plans of desertion, while a small present from the German Lieutenant Kiessling suddenly makes Amanda lie to the entire hotel.
S8.E5 ∙ Søminen
When a detached German sea mine is washed ashore right down from the hotel, it becomes the beginning of a dramatic end to the guests' holiday. But by then, the young German soldier Stefan is to be put in front of a court-martial, Mrs. Frigh needs to find out what happened to the charming fraud Emil Høyer, and actor Weyse will fall subject to an unreasonable accusation of having taken a political stand. In the meantime, Amanda once more gets the need of Lieutenant Kiessling, while Merchant Madsen's relationship with the occupying power is put to a conclusive test.
