The years are 1982-83. Bent has set himself a new goal - he wants a girlfriend. He is tempted by the unattainable Ulla Karin, but it is the nursing student Helle who teaches him what "scrotum" means. He also meets the cheerful Lene Fisker, who spreads good spirits in the dormitory hallway. On the other hand, the mood is almost zero when Bent returns home to Aars at Christmas time.
