Albin's days as a fake patient at the University Hospital in Umeå are over when he ends up diagnosed with a real illness, likely to push him to the doorstep of death.

Albin carries on with his life by auditioning for a major role. He apologises to Yvonne, continues flirting with Cissi, and misses Anita's spoken word evening.

Anita decides to take matters into her own hands when Albin refuses to talk to his father. He almost gets caught after Cissi shows up unannounced and he drags her to a club.

Aspiring actors Albin and Chippen lived together one year ago. They worked as fake patients at the hospital. Chippen fell in love with a girl, but when Albin tried to be a wingman, things fell apart.

Albin wakes up at the hospital, with Anita and Felix by his side. Dr Zoya briefs them about the situation and suggests emergency surgery. Felix conveys the update to Cissi.

While the treatment continues, Albin refuses to join Yvonne's support group. He flees to the forest on his birthday to avoid Cissi, but finally ends up at Gunnar's house.
