"# We go over dew-sprinkled mountains," "# Which borrow from emeralds their colour," "# And sorrows we have none, Our merry songs echo..." "# As we go over dew-sprinkled mountains." " Bye!" " Bye!" "Kaoko, where are you going?" "Going fishing!" "What's he going on about, that I should sit in the canoe." "Of course I have to stand up, if I'm to be able to guide us past those dangerous coral reefs." "Up with you now!" "Today, you won't get away." "And Villervalle, how dare you fool your old Grandma?" "You rascal." "It's a small conger eel, or moray eel, which Kaoko has harpooned." "It has dangerous fangs, that one must watch out for." "Help!" "An octopus!" "It's eating me up!" "Hands up!" "Forward march!" "This evening there'll be detention." "Swedish Radio presents" "Villervalle in the South Pacific" "Shark Adventure" "(Reading aloud from textbooks)" "Hey, you can actually read just as well with the mask on." "What's the good of that?" "You're not going to sit on the seabed and read, are you?" "(Reading aloud from textbook)" "Hey, a sharks jaw like this would be nice to return home with." "As soon as we get a holiday I think I'll go out and catch a couple of really big sharks." "How do you aim to catch them, then?" "With your hands, perhaps?" "No, the best way to kill a shark is to cut open its belly with a sheath knife." "But I've heard it said that sharks can be a little dangerous sometimes." "I've checked with both Tetohu and Kaoko, and they say that sharks are among the most cowardly animals around." "And besides, they have very poor eye sight." "If they bite someone, it's only by accident." "But that doesn't make things any better for the person who gets bitten." "Stuff like that happens very rarely." "The only times sharks are truly dangerous is when there's blood in the water." "Then they go absolutely wild, says Kaoko." "And Tetohu told me, that once when they were out..." "Grandma's coming!" "(Reading aloud from textbooks)" "What a lovely sight!" "I hope you've been reading like this all morning." "Oh yes, Grandma." "15 minute break!" "Then it'll be homework tests." "Grandma, can I go out with Kaoko and paddle a while?" "All my muscles will waste away if I'm going to be shut up in this way." "Very well, go out and paddle a while." "I also think that we should do the same." "These beautiful necklaces of cowries are worn by both men and women." "But they also use the cowries for decoration, like on small tablecloths and baskets." "There's Nose fish down there." "And fried Nose fish is the best Grandma knows how to do." "I think I'll catch two for her." " The break is over." "Stay here now, and I'll interrogate you in peace and quiet while Kaoko dives." "But could I at least have a dip?" "It will be easier for me to remember." "So be it, then." "Finally, a break." "How do you like the playground, eh?" "That's a butterfly fish, but you can't eat them." "Well, what's the first question?" "What do you know about Gustav Vasa?" "Gustav Vasa?" "Why do you want me to tell you about Gustav Vasa?" "He was a man who lived long ago on the other side of the world." "Aren't you ashamed, Villervalle!" "Can't you remember his real name and the estate he came from?" "He came from Vasa." "His name was Gustav Eriksson and he came from Rydboholm." "It sounds like the name of a member of parliament." "Why isn't he Rydboholm?" "Just wait, you pompous miscreant." "Shoals of fish swimming around the coral forest look like swarms of little birds." "I usually call these fish, blue tits." "There's a trumpet fish." "These fish with those beautiful fins are actually called pennant coralfish." "The zebrafish is of course a striped animal." "A Tridacna clam, just right for school lunch." "Oh, if only I had my harpoon." "Then I'd have harpooned that spotted kipu fish." "This time you won't escape." "How was Gustav Eriksson Vasa related with Kristina Gyllenstierna, who defended Stockholm against King Kristian?" "One could say that I'm in over my head." "Don't talk nonsense." "She was his aunt." "Gosh, were there already aunts back then?" "You should be ashamed." "You don't know any history, and you can't catch any fish." "Kaoko can, of course!" "That kind of fish doesn't exist." "A worse student than you doesn't exist." "Thanks, Grandma." "Doesn't exist." "Now come the sharks." "They're not dangerous if one isn't afraid." "They're magnificent." "A manta ray." "Like an airplane!" "It probably weighs at least a ton." "There's an incredible amount of fish down there." "There's a giant manta and lots of sharks." "Well, where's all the fish you were going to catch?" "You have to study their habits first." "If only you could study on land as well." "So long, Grandma!" " What do you say now, Grandma?" " Did you scare it to death?" "You just wait, Grandma, this is just the beginning." "This is the worst of all the fish on the reef, the moray eel, sea eel." "It has sharp jaws like a bear trap." "If it bites hold of your hand, then there are only two things you can do." "Cut off the head of the moray eel, or your hand." "The hardest thing is to get the moray eel out of the hole." "It's almost two meters long." "Ow, I cut myself on a coral." "It's bleeding!" "If only the shark doesn't smell the blood." "But I'm going to take the moray eel back to Grandma." "I will!" "How did I get out of that?" " But the shark then?" " It sank immediately." "But Grandma, can't they dive down and pick it up?" "I'd so much like to have a sharks jaw." "Please Grandma, don't tell them that I passed out." "I promise you, how the shark fishing went about, is a secret between us." "But then you must also read your homework properly in the future." "Cross my heart." "Mom, Dad, come and see!" "Come on!" "What a shark!" " Where did you get that from?" " Get?" "Surely it wasn't you that caught it, Villervalle?" "It... it's my shark." "Lenalisa, get the tape measure!" "But you're bleeding." "Have you hurt yourself?" "It's just a little scratch I got when I fought with the shark." "Gosh, I thought you were just kidding when you said you could kill a shark." "Place the measuring tape at the nose, Villervalle!" "150... 176." "176!" "Not so bad for my first shark." "Why are you putting the shells in boxes?" "Because it's a bit difficult to write letters and stick stamps directly on the shells." "Now I know!" "Lenalisa, was it you who left this here?" "Take it inside!" " Stay away from my shells." " Shells?" "Sss!" "Hey, what are you up to, anyway?" "I'm going to send some souvenirs to Nisse and other school mates." "And what do you have planned for the customs declaration?" "For you haven't forgotten, that the packages have to be cleared?" "Shark teeth, of course." "Lenalisa puts "shells" on her packages." "You are young and innocent, clearly." "It's not so simple, back home in Sweden." "You see, if you put "shark teeth" and "shells", then the poor customs clerk won't find any product category that fits." "Instead, he'll summon his superiors, who will hold a special meeting on the matter, write long reports." "The Board of Customs will set up a special committee to investigate the matter." "And it means, that your classmates will be old men and women, when they get your shells and shark teeth." "Then I know what to write." "Dentures." "Hey!" "Look what I found in the shark's head." "A bullet from Grandma's rifle." "Amazing!" "Then the shark managed to catch the bullet before I killed it." "Subtitles by Faxeholm and Squashy Hat"
