Arthur?

Can you give this to Missy?

- I'm going to stay.

- Thank you.

Well, have you seen

all the people outside?

A lot of people are very disappointed.

-If "Lend-lease" goes through, -

- many unemployed

happy to get a job again.

I'll tell you, because it's for your own good:

Don't open that door.

You have no idea what's coming.

on the other side.

I don't care about Charles Lindbergh.

and the America First Committee.

Don't underestimate them.

A lot of people showed up in Des Moines.

Lindbergh plays on fear

The Norwegian Government will

order a lot of w*r material from the United States.

A win-win situation

- Is he here?

- Yes, i'm sorry. Just jump in it.

Gentlemen,

Dinner is served in the dining room.

- Here you go, go to the table.

- It's wonderful!

How's it going?

Not so good. Norwegian Congress also

men are skeptical about "Lend-lease".

It is absolutely essential

that the bill goes through in Congress.

Just wait.

I have a surprise for you.

As you may have seen, it is

a free space at the end of the table.

It is reserved

tonight's guest of honor, -

- which I'm afraid

not you this time.

- I'm excited.

- Let me introduce you.

Alfred Isaksen.

A Norwegian sailor who participated

in several convoys to and from England.

The last convoy

was attacked by German submarines.

- And as you can see

- As you can see, I'm alive.

Yes.

But my friends and comrades, -

- they're now resting at the bottom of the ocean.

God keep them.

God keep them.

After this event -

I was way down — very far down.

You can't imagine it.

the cruelty the Germans have subjected us to.

They kept the family

and my compatriots caught

I'm not going to ask you to send

their sons into a w*r far away.

But please

to lend me a weapon, -

- so I can go home.

and fight the damn Nazis!

Where did you find that guy?

And then the next dish, remember?

Yes.

Thank you, Your Highness.

- This is all right, isn't it?

- Yes, i'm sorry.

What is it?

Your sailor.

made an impression on them.

But you should perhaps have

discussed your discovery with me?

- The discovery?

- Yes, i'm sorry.

- I thought

- You took a big chance.

It might as well be

damaged Norway's cause.

When you decide

to live with your family, -

- you can go and decide.

But now this is my home,

and I decide the guest list.

A clear victory for "Lend-lease"!

Read all about it here!

I want to make a toast.

for a fantastic effort, -

- for a fantastic outcome.

260 vs. 165 votes in Congress.

A clear victory for "Lend-lease"!

Finally, America can support

the Allies with w*r materials.

And among us we have some

who have contributed to this -

- with formidable effort and lobbying.

His Highness Crown Prince Olav!

It was a god's happiness

that you made the trip across the pond.

So thank you, Your Highness. And we want

All of them a good trip to London.

- And cheers!

- Cheers!

- Could we get a picture, Your Highness?

- Yes, i'm sorry.

Clear?

Good. An additional bowl

for your efforts, the Morning Trailers.

Bowl.

And last but not least,

I will produce a great bowl

Bowl

- All for Norway.

- All for Norway!

America First Committee protests

s tenfold higher against the Lend-lease act.

Although the voting in Congress

followed the party lines by 260 against 165

Mother! Ragnhild has had

dollhouse all the time!

- No, she actually got a try.

- Wait, wait, wait, Hush!

- Come on, girls.

- Signe! Astrid

in fear that it

get the country in the w*r.

No weapon

s so far handed over to the Allies,

- asking the U.S. to keep its promise

when the situation keeps getting worse.

In a comment about how serious

situation is, said Winston Churchill:

If we fail,

will the whole world, including the United States, the

- enter a new dark ages

The situation is unbearable.

My country is bleeding.

And the Allies

goes from defeat to defeat.

And the help from America is not coming.

"Lend-lease" were just empty promises.

Well, in my defense

we have no available fleet strength to spare.

- It'll take time to build it up.

- We don't have time.

People suffer and die every day.

There is a difference between sitting in opposition

and take the guide in a situation.

Why don't you do something yourself?

I'm not a leader,

and at least no politician.

You'll sound like one soon!

Look, i'm not going to tell you.

What if you give a lecture

at American Friends of Norway?

Mobilize the people.

People want to listen to a real princess.

- and you have a real message.

You have more to do with

than you are aware of, Märtha.

No

No, I haven't.

Please drive me home.

- Have you talked to Märtha lately?

- How is that?

The morning trailers

complaints about her efforts.

They get requests for interviews,

but she's turning it down.

You know what it's like with Märtha.

and the spotlight. She's tried, but

- She just doesn't fit it.

We need to get the message out to the Americans.

Every time she says no,

is a missed chance of that.

At least she can.

up to a photo sh**t.

Your Highness!

- Your Highness.

- Thank you for your efforts.

- Good day.

- Thank you. And welcome.

Welcome.

Thank you for your efforts. Thanks.

Welcome to Washington.

Thank you for everything you do.

Your Highness.

Thank.

- Who's taking care of them?

The hardest injured will be in the hospital.

The healthy ones get new mustard, and otherwise

We'll be housed in some norwegians here.

- And the ones that can't fit?

They live in hostels for the homeless.

- I have room.

- What do you mean?

They can stay with me on Pooks Hill.

We don't know who they are. It must be

with the king and the crown prince.

They don't live here. They can say whatever they want.

Send them to Pooks Hill.

Thanks.

Now they are ready,

for now it's their turn.

Yes.

- What did the ambassador say?

- He disclaims all responsibility.

The Crown Princess has acted

entirely on his own, against his counsel.

- You're not saying anything?

- I don't see the problem.

It's brilliant! Good advertising for Norway

governments and for the royal house.

The idea that Märtha and the children

have the house full of sailors

- Norwegian sailors.

- Yes, thank you. Sailors as well.

I don't like the idea of it.

We could have brought someone in here.

Yes, Nordlie,

It'll be your turn soon.

At least we have room for that.

Welcome to Pooks Hill.

Welcome.

Do you take them with crutches in there?

Welcome.

Follow me.

The bedrooms are on the second floor.

Welcome.

Welcome.

Kronprinssse Märtha of Norway opens

home for wounded Norwegian sailors."

Her Highness

is a role model for how we all

I have to pass.

that she is something for herself.

You're wasting your time.

She's manipulating you.

- Why don't you see it?

- I'll go.

- Good night, Harry.

- Good night, Missy.

You make yourself laugh.

She's not looking at you.

the way you want.

She just sees an old man.

who happens to be president.

I'm tired of your jealousy, Missy.

Why should I be jealous?

She's not interested in you,

other than what she can take advantage of.

(A sailor screams loudly.)

Help!

Help! Help!

What's going on?

They'll have us excused.

We can't wake him up.

- What's going on?

- Someone's having nightmares.

Come on, let's go back to bed.

- What's his name?

- Otto, i'm sorry.

Otto. Otto.

- Help! Let's go down!

- Otto!

- Let's go down

- That's how

You're safe now.

You're safe now.

So Everything's fine.

That's it, yes.

That's it, yes.

That's the way

That's it, yes

How did you come about being a masseuse?

I guess I like working with people.

Make others have a good time.

Come here.

I'm going to massage you.

It looks like you need it.

Move here.

I can take your shoulders.

Okay.

I have to

I need your shoulders.

Oh, what do we have here?

A tattoo?

Yes.

I had just met Nikolai.

I was 19 and wildly in love. Stupid.

Not at all.

It was romantic.

I like it.

And I've seen a lot.

Si me, Ragni,

how much does a court woman earn?

I guess you make a good profit.

when working for the royals?

Or is it a state secret?

- Nothing.

- No, tell me.

- It's true. I don't get paid.

You're kidding. But

It's a privilege to serve king-

Family. It's like serving the country.

How can you afford things?

Clothes and things for the children and

I'm sorry, Ragni,

I should not have mentioned

We just heard from Norway

that the Germans -

- arresting children

of officers who fled.

- But Ragni, they're

I don't know where they are or what they're doing.

Poor you.

Can't sleep either?

I'm sorry, I didn't know you were

The were here.

It doesn't matter.

Here in the kitchen we can be you.

Would you like a cup of tea?

Came.

Their.

It was quite a nightmare you had.

Don't you remember that?

No.

Thanks.

How did you become a sailor, Otto?

I got to be on a fishing boat-

- who was going over to England.

What did your mother and father think of that?

They were happy.

And then

I have a lot of little siblings.

- It's hard to get food.

- Isn't there enough food?

The Germans tightened up

on the rationing.

There is not enough flour,

milk, sugar, butter.

Mom had to

make bread out of bark and stuff.

At least now there's one less to think about.

- Tour?

- Yes, i'm sorry. Collection of emergency aid for Norway.

How should the emergency services

get into the Norway?

Via the Swedish Red Cross, where my father

is the leader of the humanitarian effort.

It's not a stupid thought,

but are you sure if you

- Yes, I'm sure.

- Yes, yes.

I want to get started as soon as possible.

We have no time to lose.

- Of course.

- It will bring attention to Norway's cause.

Then I know

where we can start such a tour.

They should give a speech

in Madison Square Garden.

There's room for over 30,000.

Look for you a big event

with music and dancers and appeals.

And everything filmed and distributed

all over America.

Speech?

Our boys are not going to w*r!

We are neutral

(She hears the cries outside.)

(It's knocking on.)

- Yes, yes, yes, yes. Come in.

- The Crown Princess wants to see you.

Okay.

Find a free time.

She's here now.

Then, so.

Show her in.

I'm sorry, but Franklin's out.

- But I want to talk to you.

Here you go and sit.

- Quite a demonstration out there.

Yes, people don't want to be dragged into the w*r.

Neither am I.

- I'm going straight to the point.

- Here you go.

Speaking publicly is not my strong side.

-Women are like tea bags:

We don't know how strong we are,

before we are in deep water.

But you have your own ability

to make people listen.

It's not about abilities,

but about preparation and determination.

But I'm preparing. But immediately

I stand on the podium, it's as if

Can you help me?

Teach me to speak like you? Please.

I know you dislike that I ask Franklin

No.

I'm sorry, Märtha, but I

I just don't have time.

Besides, I'm sure there are

many others who are better than me.

I understand.

Thank you for taking your time.

- Have a nice day, Märtha.

- You too, Eleanor.

Are you all right?

Yes.

And what about you?

I've got the paperwork.

I don't know if I dare another trip.

Being brave is about

to do the right thing even if you are afraid.

- What are you afraid of?

- Oh

I'm afraid

that they're going to expose me.

That they should understand what small,

ignorant jerk I really am.

If it hadn't been for you,

I wouldn't be here.

You're a good person.

Let's make a deal.

You and me, Otto.

We're going to be brave.

We're going to do the right thing.

Even if we're afraid.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

They have a visitor, Mr. Østgaard.

Follow me.

Let me look at you properly.

- Come on, let's get some food.

- Dad, you need to say hello to Erling.

Lieutenant Erling Hammershøy.

He helped us over to England,

saved us from the Germans.

Then I really have to thank you.

- The lieutenant might want to eat with us?

- You can call him Erling, Father.

We're engaged.

Engaged?

But you're just

I've turned 19.

Yes, but then we really have

reason to celebrate. We need to call Mom!

Came! Come on, come on.

Oh, the gold, I miss you guys like that.

I've longed so much for you.

We've missed you too, Mom.

- Take care of yourselves, now.

-Yes, you too.

-Kiitos.

-Kiitos.

- Have a good time.

-Ha.

My daughter, Ulla,

she's getting married.

They're in love,

and everything is fine.

I told you they were fine!

- And she's getting married?

- Yes, i'm sorry.

On the spot rest!

Now it looks good, Fleischer.

They've got things sorted.

- Yes, the brigade is ready for battle.

- The position of chief of defence will be reinstated.

- And the crown prince is again topical?

- No, there's no mood for that.

But

They are the most competent, Fleischer.

It's obvious.

- We're not going to take the pleasure up front.

I'm going to bring my father on this.

So you want to promote

a proposal for the government?

- About Fleischer as chief of defense?

- Yes, i'm sorry.

10s

He's built up the brigade,

he has action

- He wants to put our troops on Norwegian soil.

- Isn't that the goal of a Norwegian force?

The government fears German retaliation.

Each action is answered with liquidation

of resistance fighters or civilians.

The Germans themselves will answer for that.

- He's out.

- Out?

- What about the deal at 3:00?

- Cancelled.

- And what made him cancel?

- Guess.

- Of course.

I guess she needed advice and comfort.

I guess Franklin can give her both.

Look what she's started with now.

She has opened her home

for Norwegian sailors.

So i guess she's not lonely anymore.

- Watch the step.

- Thank you.

Is this home

for shipwrhage sailors?

Eleanor.

Hey, Märtha.

And what is so the reason why you have

taken you time to visit me today?

- Can I be sincere?

- Of course.

Well, to be honest

When you came, I saw

a shy and smug princess -

- with a narrow-minded and subjective vision

events that are now shaking the world.

But I realize

that I've been wrong, Märtha.

You still want my help?

Well Yes.

- Yes, I really want to!

- I'm fine.

Let's not waste any more time.

Here you go.

Excuse.

Wait

Take courage.

It

It was a day that was perfect-

- for the kids to play outside.

A day of fun, laughter, joy.

A day of everyday

No, wait.

With everyday chores,

common things, tranquility.

But that day never came.

What do you want, Märtha?

I want peace and freedom for my country.

- Peace and freedom.

I want that, too.

But there are abstract concepts.

So what is it you vil?

- I want my life back.

- But you're alive.

Life lives where you are.

So what is it

you want to have a

- in your life?

- I want to go home.

What do you expect to find there?

The house that Olav and I have built.

The garden with the roses I've planted.

Children's climbers.

Our horses.

Our beds.

Our chores, just

Everyday life.

That's what I want.

Good!

Now we have something to work on.

Come on, Märtha, get up.

Eleanor, what are we doing?

You're going to learn to be embarrassed.

Take off your shoes,

if it helps.

Oh, you're always so real, Märtha.

Make a grimace, Märtha.

Make an ugly grimace.

No, Märtha,

still too pretty.

The hand of the railing,

breathe deeply, shoulders behind.

I'm your new best friend,

and you have something to tell me.

One more time.

- My name is Märtha.

- My name is Märtha!

I want to go

Home!

I'll show up.

Yes. Great.

It was a joyous news.

I'll make sure to give the speech short.

Short, but full.

Otherwise, thank you,

but I write my speech myself.

It's a condition.

Thank you, The Morning Star.

USA launches a large-scale

fundraiser for the Red Cross

People are going to see patriotic entertainment

by The Music Hall Rockettes!

It's going to be an impressive performance

Mrs. Roosevelt and Märtha of Norway -

are among those present

to support the cause.

(It's knocking on.)

Yes?

Your Highness, it's your turn.

My ladies and gentlemen,

a round of applause for The Rockettes!

It's an honor to introduce the princess

Märtha by Norway and Eleanor Roosevelt!

Thanks. Thanks.

First a few words

from the Crown Princess -

- by Norway.

Come on, Märtha, you can do this.

- Anybody want another drink?

- Shush, Missy.

- I'm trying to hear.

- What then?

It was a beautiful day in April.

The garden was still full of snow.

It was a day that was perfect.

for the children to play outside.

A day of -

- fun, laughter, joy.

A day of everyday chores,

common things, tranquility.

Another precious day

in what was our everyday life.

But that day never came.

Instead, there were planes.

Death.

w*r.

Everything changed that day.

For me.

For my family.

And for the whole country.

A small country,

which is still occupied -

- of a dark and cruel force, -

- who has since spread his all-up-

devouring fire over the rest of the world.

But another force is also in play.

All the women and men

who are fighting together -

- to put out the fire.

and do what is right.

Who trades

in mercy and compassion -

- with all the

women, children and men -

- who so badly needs help.

to survive.

On behalf of the Red Cross

I thank you for your support.

- and to give us all hope

that after this time of evil-

- shall the goodness of mankind

win.

Bravo!

Thank you.

God bless you.

Thanks. We're all happy

for we heard tonight.

- the heartfelt and important message

to the Crown Princess of Norway.

You were brilliant!

- Congratulations.

- Thank you.

- It couldn't have gone better.

- Oh, thank you.

It was okay.

We have to work on the articulation.

Yes.

Eleanor!

Happy days are here again,

the skies above are clear again,

let us sing a song of cheer again!

happy days are here again.

All together shout it now

Hold on to your hat!

happy days are here again.

I guess it will benefit Norway's cause.

that the Crown Princess goes on a tour?

Your Majesty,

I have to disagree.

I speak for the whole government when I

say we can't spend a lot of money-

- on safety around a vain attempt

to mobilize the Americans.

There are other things that burn more.

I suggest we round

and meet tomorrow at 8:45.

Sober and in good spirits.

If you think it's best,

, of course, I do.

- Thank you very much.

-And you're absolutely sure?

That's the government's wish. Goodbye.

It's the only right thing to do now.

Yes.

I'm going out for a walk. Alone.

- Good morning.

- Mom, i'm sorry.

- Mom, what's going on? Where are you going?

- I'm going on tour, sweetie.

What? Go back to bed, sweetie.

I'll just be gone for a few days.

- But you promised to come to the dentist!

- Shush. You wake Harald up.

Signe's going with you to the dentist.

- I want you's going to.

- It's going to be good.

- That's it. Bye.

- Stay, Mom.

- No, now I have to go.

- So, so. Came.

Mother!

(The phone rings.)

I'm afraid I have bad news,

Your Highness.

The thing is that the government

puts your foot down for your tour.

I'm sorry.

The security risk It's going to be too expensive.

I'm sorry about that.

f*cking idiots!

Harry? Time for a c*ck.

Don't you want?

To.

I thought you knew.

Franklin's going out tonight.

- Oh, he didn't say anything about that.

Who's he going to see?

- I understand.

- Missy Don't do it.

Thank you, Jones.

Why didn't you tell me you were going out?

- I didn't want to upset you.

- And then it helps to trick yourself out like that?

Please, stay home.

We can have a c*ck and watch a movie.

You, me and Harry. What, Harry?

We can see the Bogart movie you like.

You would also see it

Missy, you're making a scene.

- Please

This is more than silly, Missy.

- If you leave, FD

- So what?

I'm warning you.

I mean it!

I'll do it!

Missy.

Hush.

I got something for you.

which I think will cheer you up.

- Do you recognize the map?

- Yes, i'm sorry.

It's the itinerary.

which Olav and I took in 39.

That's it.

Why reinvent the wheel?

We're concentrating on these cities.

- where there are a lot of Scandinavians living.

You know, lutefiskland.

"Thanks for the food" and stuff.

- Yes, yes, yes, yes.

- The security of the last time needs to be strengthened.

But most of the work is done.

You're going on tour, Märtha.

Franklin!

Thanks. Thanks.

- Yes, i'm sorry.

- Thank you very much.

Thanks.
