The hotel has been taken over by strangers who want to completely change it. Is it a sign that an era has come to an end, or should one make one last attempt to save the place?

Helene Weyse is tired of her husband's preoccupation with Sarah and invites Mrs. Frigh on an outing with surprises. The Molin couple make their entrance into the hotel.

Much must be achieved before guests can travel home. Weyse makes a startling statement, and Amanda is impatiently waiting for news. Ditmar is ready to address editor Bruun's case.

May 1945. Amanda is back at the hotel with her daughter, and soon both staff and regulars will arrive. Among others, Mrs. Fjeldsø and her Swedish granddaughter.

Mrs. Fjeldsø tries to keep to keep Sarah away from Mr. Weyse, and Mrs. Frigh gets an admirer. Ditmar is back, and then a sign of life from Mrs. Knudsen gives Amanda hope.

Weyse is despairing that his unknown daughter has put him on ice, while Helene gets another invitation to Skagen. At last Amanda gets news from Germany.

Ellinor Seerup's hotel plans take hold, and everyone directs their anger at Madsen. Weyse fears failure and tries to get out of the agreement with the theater.

The summer of 1940 and war in Europe. Amanda has taken over the hotel and welcomes guests; because even though the Germans have occupied the country, holidays must be taken.

A detached German sea mine is washed ashore near the hotel; the beginning of a dramatic end for all of the guests' summer holiday.

Amanda welcomes the Molin couple, but she also ends up in a dilemma as she receives a small gift from Lieutenant Kiessling and is forced to lie to the guests.

When Amanda rejects the German lieutenant's approaches, it sets in motion a chain of events that is going to turn things upside down on all levels.

In the summer of 1939, dark clouds are building over Europe. Despite this the regulars have arrived once again for their summer holiday at Anderson's Hotel.

Otilia tries to get Aurland away from the gloomy reading, and Kitty gets Weyse up in the red field. And then the hotel's best-kept secret is revealed.

Weyse returns from the hospital, but has to dig deep into his bag of bad excuses when his wife shows up and asks about his missing wedding ring. Nor does Madsen have the easiest time on earth if he is to both preserve his marriage and land the agreement with Germany. Many threads have to be sorted out near the end of the season, as Vera must admit that it will require extra ingenuity if Robert is to get to Sweden safely and where Amanda finally finds her way to a new beginning.

Weyse thinks he has found the right person to write his memoirs for him. But sometimes you get more help than you have asked for. Madsen mails a letter for a German soldier.

It's 1941 and the Germans have seized the neighboring hotel, but that does not keep the regulars away. As Weyse says: "If we just pretend they are not there, then they are not there".

Wholesaler Madsen is close to completing the purchase of the cheap lumber that Molin has proposed to him. Meanwhile, Molin is desperately trying to hide that he is on the verge of bankruptcy and that the timber does not, as alleged, belong to one of his clients, but rather to himself, bought with the client's money but without his knowledge. At the same time, Molin has to make sure his beautiful wife stays away from actor Weyse. In return, good things happen for Amanda, who gets sold on an idea for a commercial featuring just Weyse. Meanwhile, manufacturer Frigh arranges a croquet tournament, Edith is put face to face with the man she once dreamed of, and Fie's little sister, Ane, demonstrates that secrets are not reserved for hotel guests.

It's now autumn. Edward Weyse has been fired from the theater and makes a living playing piano for silent films in a cinema. He is approached by Amanda, who has got a job as an assistant to the self-absorbed and choleric film director Gerhard Flügelhorn, who offers Weyse a role in his new film. The hotel opens out of season so that the final scenes of the film can be recorded there in peace and quiet. Unfortunately, the rumour of this exciting event has reached the old guests, so suddenly the film crew is no longer alone. Mrs. Andersen has become ill and is staying with Fie's father who is sure she will be better off if she is told Morten her big secret.

It's summer of 1931 by the North Sea. Newspapers are full of reports of bankruptcies and world crisis, but that does not stop the Copenhagen regulars from being back at the small hotel where Fie has taken over the day-to-day management. The maid Edith is sure that Fie is dreaming of something completely different, so she allies herself with the spiritual Miss Vetterstrøm to find out. Actor Weyse is riding a wave of success in the world of film and, in order to be at peace, has informed the press that he is on holiday on Lake Garda which he bitterly regrets when his mortal enemy from the theater, Sophus Poulsen, moves in, accompanied by Weyse's ex-wife.

Fie dreams that her father has became ill and falls. She wants to leave her place as maid and go home, but it's not easy to tell Mrs Andersen or the young man Morten, who has been interested in her. Amanda has other plans. She is determined to win the bet over who is first with a man and does everything possible to get to a party at one of the big hotels in Skagen. Her father's interest in the young Count Ditmar gives her unexpected help. And then the hotel host gets an urge to look through keyholes, while the young girls bathe.

Amanda has a bet with her friend in Hornbæk about who first debuts sexually, so now she is quickly trying to find a man. Her father is more concerned with getting her married well and sees his chance, as a Count's family moves into the hotel. One of the maids has a nocturnal visit from a young man which is strictly prohibited and hotel host Julius Andersen is determined to find out which of the girls it is. Andersen's morals are less important when he sees his chance to look through the keyhole when the young girls bathe. And then Royal actor Edward Weyse is suddenly summoned to a secret rendezvous in the summer night.

The small seaside hotel prepares for Mr. Andersen's funeral, but not all the guests think it is compatible with a holiday. For Molly Andersen, it's a sudden challenge to bear the whole responsibility for the hotel. Can she manage both guests and girls, and will she be allowed to keep the hotel right after her husband's death? Fie helps where she can, but Morten does not make it easier for her, as he once again provokes merchant Madsen. Yet it will be a very special evening at Andersen seaside hotel, where a summer night turns out to lure guests to unfamiliar adventure. And not least the awkward bachelor Adam gets an unexpected experience.

The summer of 1929. The regulars from Copenhagen are back at Andersens Badehotel by the North Sea. Wholesaler Madsen's daughter Amanda is also arriving after a trip abroad, which was arranged by her parents to get her away from an unfortunate romantic connection. The maid Fie looks forward to Amanda's arrival with mixed feelings. The Grosserer daughter is the only one who can help Fie's boyfriend, Morten, free from the accusation that has kept him on the run for a year. But will she? And then two young men move into the hotel laden with a gramophone and jazz records in search of adventure.

Little Severin has been stung by a wasp, but Weyse is sure it's a viper, and thinks it requires action. Morten also wants action, after Madsen has arbitrarily bought Molin's Jutland building timber, but the meeting between the two partners goes differently than Madsen has feared. Meanwhile Edith has fallen head over heels in love which is intolerable for Otilia, who wants to feel the same tingle of bliss. There is a different peace between the Molin couple after the successful tree sale and the prospect of an even greater gain if they succeed in helping Frigh. Finally, Fie is faced with a difficult dilemma, when Miss Duelund in the hat shop discovers that Ane has lied to her.

Weyse suddenly gets a brilliant idea of how he can avoid performing for the Germans. But unfortunately, German Lieutenant Kiessling is also a man of ideas.

It has rained and stormed for two consecutive days and the guests are starting to get on each other's nerves at the Seaside Hotel. Weyse has an argument with the theater about the cast for next year, and Amanda will be persuaded to take a trip to Skagen with Count Ditmar. Mrs. Andersen must cope with the operation of the hotel alone, now that Mr. Andersen is in the hospital after the accident with the electricity, and it is quite a challenge for Molly Andersen, who has never had anything to do with the finances.

It's summer again, and Mrs. Andersen and her girls open the beach hotel for a new season. It's 1930 and the world crisis is going on just outside the country's borders, but quite different things occupy the regulars. Wholesaler Madsen is struggling to get back on top after the bankruptcy last fall. Mrs. Aurland fears her husband will find out he is not the father of their newborn son. Amanda is back in her marriage to Count Ditmar, but still dreams of Max. And Weyse arrives in the company of a young acting student who turns out to be a girl with multiple talents.

Madsen has pledged his wife's jewelery to raise capital for the new construction project which makes problems for their marriage, but Mrs. Madsen gets unexpected help when the secretive lawyer Kvist moves into the hotel. Amanda has moved in with Max in the summer cottage, but she's afraid that Ditmar will want financial support from her parents. Weyse does what he can to protect his young acting student Kitty Hansen from manufacturer Frigh's approaches, but must recognise that she is independent. Morten's old childhood home is suddenly sold, which gives Molly and Fie the opportunity to finally contact Morten.

Summer is coming to an end at the resort and guests are preparing for parting with the sweet holiday life. Fie is invited to stay for the winter, but is in doubt because of the relationship with Morten. Mrs. Fjeldsø makes a last desperate attempt to find a suitable match for her son Adam, while Weyse abandons his desperate hunt for Mrs Aurland and learns something new about women's psychology. Merchant Madsen sees through Count Ditmar, but still hopes that he will be his son-in-law. Everything is bright until Ditmar's tormentor suddenly shows up at the hotel and threatens to expose the young Count's past.

The hotel is turned upside down to get ready for Amanda and Count Ditmar's engagement party. There are high expectations, but not for Max, who has a great desire to see Amanda say yes to someone else. Molly Andersen has picked up extra help at Hotel Udsigten, but there is smoke in the kitchen, as it turns out that the borrowed maid Jenny has just married the cook Martha's boyfriend. Weyse tries new means in his attempt to seduce office manager Aurland's wife, while Amanda has to remind her father of what he promised in return for her engagement. And Fie finally sees Morten again after a whole year.

A vagabond who has news about the missing Morten is treated to beer and brandy at the hotel and manages to impress one of the girls in particular. After the funeral of the old Count, Amanda and Ditmar return to the hotel accompanied by Ditmar's mother, who begins to understand Amanda's relationship with Max. At the same time, visits are expected from two fine gentlemen to assess whether the young Count is suitable to take over his father's hereditary place in the Danish Parliament. Madsen is diligently trying to find financing for his new construction project, while manufacturer Frigh is becoming more and more preoccupied with Mr Weyse's young acting student, Miss Kitty Hansen.

Merchant Madsen's 19-year-old daughter Amanda is planning to run away from her family's holiday and Madsen himself is at odds with one of the locals when he runs some chickens down. This year there is a new girl on the staff; 18-year-old Fie going to be a kitchen maid, but is immediately promoted by the hotel host. This arouses indignation from one of the other maids who decides to work against Fie.

Amanda and Ditmar have agreed on how to handle their pro forma marriage, but neither Ditmar's mother nor Max fully agree with that plan. Miss Vetterstrøm returns from Copenhagen, because she mistakenly believes that Mrs Fjeldsø is ill. The two sisters finally reconcile helped by a bottle of liqueur. Weyse is suddenly called to a meeting at the theater which has received an anonymous letter threatening his career. Fie's father moves into the small farmhouse where Morten lived which evokes old feelings in Fie, but the discovery of a naked man on the beach soon has her thinking differently.

Both Max and manufacturer Frigh suffer from the sorrows of love. Max because Amanda has put him on ice after he quarreled with Ditmar's mother. Frigh because the object of his longing, the young acting student Kitty Hansen, has returned to Copenhagen. But then the two gentlemen both receive a letter that creates renewed hope. Fie's father has moved into the homestead and is discouraged over his sad fate. Mrs. Andersen tries to cheer him up. It succeeds beyond all expectations. And in the middle of it all, the hotel is suddenly visited by Prime Minister Thorvald Stauning himself.

Madsen returns with Seerup determined to hold on to the rich Danish-American long enough to land a deal. Helene gets to work with her mailbox.

After feeling adventurous with the young people for a few days, Weyse returns to the calmer environment of the hotel. But it will soon turn out that the troubles of the crisis-stricken actor have only just begun. Madsen, on the other hand, is delighted when he obtains Nazi approval to build in Germany. But the joy only lasts until he is faced with a deeply annoying question of conscience. Finally the hour of truth comes for Vera and her relationship with Robert. And Nana receives a visit from home that is going to turn everything upside down.

Weyse rehearses his role for 'Vandalism' with the anti-Nazi Gerhard Flügelhorn, at the same time as he feverishly tries to hide what he has done for the Germans in Skagen.

Molly has been promised she can continue as a tenant and keep her girls, even if grocer Damgaard buys the hotel. However, it quickly turns out that the grocery couple does not have the purest flour in the bag. Mrs. Fjeldsø is shocked by a letter from her son in Sweden, so her sister Lydia must use unconventional means to find out what has happened. Madsen is gripped by stock fever after big gains in the American market, and Poul finally finds his youthful love. In the kitchen, things also happen when Edith gets an idea of how she and the other girls can prevent Mrs. Andersen from signing the grocer's sales agreement.
