Jeppe is pushed to the edge. The orchestra's finances are hanging by a thin thread, and the family situation has only become more complicated. Regitze points Jeppe in the direction of an old acquaintance, Marcus Holm, an entrepreneur with pockets full of gold. But when you mix art and hardcore business, you get cracking integrity, and Jeppe is faced with a difficult decision. Bo meets an old flame, and Lene feels reduced to air.

Bo's worst nightmare and biggest dream have simultaneously come true: He has taken the place as 1st clarinet in an honest and fair way from Simon, but the Orchestra will play Simon's debut work Ode to Alma, which even Bo must admit is a masterpiece.
