Josefine is still accused of Otto's drug smuggling, but Dan does everything in his power to get her released.
The funfair is in many ways running on the edge of the law, so unfortunately, not everyone is equally willing to cooperate with Dan and Flemming.

The situation has now become so serious that forces from all over Zealand have been called in.
