Kamilla and the Thief 2 1989

The sequel opens with Sebastian’s arrest. Shortly after, the criminal Joakim Jensen is arrested and placed in a prison cell with Sebastian. Kamilla is very worried about [Sebastian], and one day she goes to visit him in prison. After the visit, Sofie is no longer afraid of [Sebastian] and allows Kamilla to write him letters.

Peter still mocks Kamilla and claims that [Sebastian] is a thief. The teacher explains to the children that there are many thieves even in school and that there are different ways of stealing (stealing secrets, stealing self-confidence). But the teacher also explains that even if people have done wrong, if they are sincerely sorry, they can go to heaven.

At Christmas, [Sebastian] is released from prison on parole and goes to see Kamilla and Sofie. At the same time, [Joakim Jensen] breaks out of prison again. [Sebastian] fixes Kamilla’s kite and tells his story to the other kids. The children befriend him, but many of the adult villagers are still skeptical and unfriendly towards [Sebastian]. Only Sofie, Kamilla and the other children believe in [Sebastian].

When [Sebastian], Sofie and the children celebrate Peter’s birthday, the sisters Maren Sørgården and Pauline meet Joakim Jensen, who is hiding in old Simon’s hut and then ties up the two girls and holds them captive. [Sebastian], Peter and Kamilla go in search of the two and observe what is happening through a window. While Kamilla gets reinforcements, Peter and Sebastian storm into the hut. Peter manages to free the two girls while [Sebastian] fights with [Joakim Jensen]. When [Sebastian] stumbles over a carpet, falls and remains unconscious, [Joakim Jensen] escapes. During his escape he knocks over a candlestick, whereupon the curtains catch fire and a short time later the hut is on fire. Christoffer manages to pull [Sebastian] out of the burning hut at the last second.

Sofie and Kamilla take [Sebastian] in and take care of him. When he finally regains consciousness, the two take him outside. There, all the villagers are busy rebuilding the hut for [Sebastian].
