About
What do you do when you lose everything and have to start all over again? Ten-year-old Lucas, the middle child of a wealthy family, lives in an expensive neighborhood in a large house, equipped with every luxury. Everything changes completely when Lucas, while searching for his Sinterklaas surprise, finds a large box of unpaid bills. Father Maarten turns out to have enormous financial problems and the family loses everything. The family is evicted and, with the help of their cleaner Nina, finds shelter in an old office building among other new poor people. While father (Jeroen Spitzenberger) and mother (Hadewych Minis) have a hard time with themselves and each other, and big brother Thomas (15) and sister Emma (7) have a terrible time getting used to the new situation, Lucas tries to make the best of it with the highest goal: a Merry Christmas for the whole family.

Wonderful Evening
Lucas makes the most disgusting surprise ever with the help of guinea pig Rihanna's droppings, but unfortunately, Sinterklaas eve ends up being considerably less cheerful for the Vrolijkjes than they had hoped. The Vrolijk family has to leave their house within twenty-four hours.
The bare necessities
Lucas is taken off the tennis court by treasurer Bovenlander due to non-payment. The Vrolijk family will have to leave their house within twenty-four hours, leaving behind the entire estate. Does Lucas' new tennis racket actually belong there?

Rihanna is homesick
While searching for guinea pig Rihanna, Lucas meets the other extraordinary residents of his new home and is amazed by the ingredients of that delicious Polish 'borscht'.
In a mouse hole

Pudding bun day
Thursday is pudding roll day. But how do you get that when you don't even have heating, phone credit and a bike? Time for action!
Forty Love
