Lussenatten: Guttenborg wakes Pyrus in the middle of the night between 12 and 13 December with a strange explanation that they are going to Vordingborg Castle again. But first Pyrus must hand the disk back to Bertramsen, who is sleeping soundly and dreaming of the Knight's Cross. The goblins visit another Margrethe, but this time it's Margrethe I, and they experience a beautiful Lucia procession. Unfortunately, Guttenborg loses his spellbook. Miss Brahe also lights her hair, and she finds Guttenborg's little book, which she shows to Bertramsen. He immediately begins to study it, but suddenly they are visited by a court jester.

Model and meds: Guttenborg is worried. King Christian IV has decided to return and investigate whether his buildings are still beautiful and well maintained. But how are the three of them going to explain to the king that he can't just move around in today's Copenhagen. Bertramsen finds it difficult to fit his trousers after the good dinner at Miss Brahe's. Brahe suggests that he buy a microwave oven so that he can have hot food, but Bertramsen only has contempt left for that. In Nissebo, Christian IV has appeared, and with the help of a pile of tourist brochures, a puppet theater and a little extra magic, Guttenborg shows the king around Copenhagen.

A helping hand: Inside Denmark's National Archives in the middle of the Queen's Copenhagen, national archivist Bertramsen is busy investigating whether King Christian actually stood at the high mast in the Battle of Fehmern. He is so busy that he has completely forgotten that it is December 1st. Archivist Guttenborg is also far too busy to think that the month of Christmas has begun. He is more concerned with finding a historical chess opponent who is not too skilled. Bertramsen is suddenly visited by the pretty Miss Brahe, who claims that she is his secretary. Guttenborg is surprised by a young goblin. His name is Pyrus and he has applied for work at the RIS archive.

Christmas weekend: Just as quietly, quite imperceptibly and without anyone thinking about it, Christmas slowly begins to return to the cityscape. Pyrus has found his beloved hat inside Bertramsen's office. With an ingenious device that Guttenborg cobbles together, they try to save the delicious, hypercodile hat. Bertramsen examines the time around King Valdemar, and this causes Miss Brahe to break out into "song of love" about three old kings. The three goblins travel this time to the year 1157, where they meet Denmark's greatest historian Saxo. He talks about the Christmas weekend, and in the middle of it all, Valdemar appears dressed as a Christmas goat. Valdemar is invited to the gnome's home.

Cyber Space: Bertramsen is sleeping over the computer when Miss Brahe enters the office door. He has been working all night and can now find information about any historical person in the machine. In Nissebo, Pyrus writes on a wish list several meters long. Most of all, he wants a computer. When Pyrus discovers that there is a computer in the office, he lures Freja on a trip behind the screen. Suddenly Freja is gone. It turns out that the witch Afskylia has taken her, but luckily Pyrus is helped by a nice little troll named Hugo. Bertramsen and Miss Brahe discover that the computer game does not work as it should. They set a virus killer in motion, which hunts Pyrus and Freya. Now only Guttenborg can save them.

Christmas May: When Miss Brahe arrives at the National Archives in the morning, she is surprised by Santa Claus himself. It turns out to be Bertramsen in a disguise from the time of Christian I. In the gnome's home, Pyrus has been watching over the sick Freja all night. He is afraid that she is fading away. Guttenborg believes that it will help if she goes on a trip to Sønderborg Castle to visit Christian II. The king is locked up, but his mood is in good spirits, and maybe he can help the sloppy Freja. The king brews herbal tea from something he calls Christmas May. At the office, Bertramsen has been shot by a witch, and Miss Brahe offers to "break" his back.

Heavy reading: Pyrus practices conjuring, but it doesn't go so well. In return, Guttenborg offers rice bread, which Pyrus thinks is rice pudding. Miss Brahe entices Bertramsen with hot coffee and pretzels, but the national archivist seriously explains that the National Archives is a workplace and not a coffee club. A letter arrives from the queen requesting a report on Christmas traditions, and Bertramsen senses that the Knight's Cross is within reach. Pyrus, much to Guttenborg's chagrin, does not like to read books, he is more into the comic book with Juleman - the supersonic goblin. Pyrus tries to cast a spell again. This time it succeeds. The whole gnome village is now lying in ruins, and a confused girl appears.

Nikolaus: Freja reveals that she can both bake and knows what an elephant is like. Guttenborg believes that he will soon know where she comes from. Pyrus is more interested in Freja's skills as a baker. The mood in the National Archives office is good. Bertramsen and Miss Brahe decide to have a good time, and Brahe offers delicious home baked goods, which Bertramsen has a hard time keeping his fingers off. Pyrus and Guttenborg visit Christian I in the middle of Copenhagen. In the king's dark chambers, they come across a person dressed as - yes. Santa Claus. It turns out to be the king trying to entertain the family. It doesn't really work until Pyrus steps in to help with good advice and Freya's Christmas cake.

Cool Christmas: Already from the morning, Bertramsen and Guttenborg get to feel the new times. Miss Brahe is just about to reveal Bertramsen's secret, namely that the national archivist lives in the National Archives. Pyrus shakes up the good Guttenborg by decorating for Christmas - elves don't usually do that. But Pyrus doesn't care. He has cut Christmas hearts out of old documents and believes that Christmas can be cool. Both Bertramsen and Guttenborg put their new "apprentices" to the test by finding books. During the rehearsal, Bertramsen sees Pyrus and thinks he has fallen ill, but Miss Brahe explains to him that he just saw a goblin. Guttenborg shows Pyrus how to conjure people out of and into Danish history.

Mead: All the Christmas decorations in town are gone. The same is true of the beautiful Christmas hearts that Miss Brahe hung up in the National Archives' office. And now both Bertramsen and Brahe suddenly find it difficult to remember the word 'Christmas'. Bertramsen gets the brilliant idea to write Christmas with a red marker, but the letters fall off the paper. In Goblin's home, Freja is shocked that she might fade away before long. Pyrus and Guttenborg try to comfort her. The elves continue the hunt for Christmas, and this time they head to the Bronze Age. They meet a large and hairy viking who loves mead and is easy to swing the sword. He says he drinks Christmas. In the middle of the shelves, Bertramsen fights his own personal sword fight.
