At the airport in Sweden, he meets a man from Norway, Ole Bramserud (Jon Skolmen). Before the trip, he calls for a meeting with a psychiatrist called Dr. B. A:son Levander for treating his flying-fear. Levander then cons Stig-Helmer into smuggling money to Nueva Estocolmo for another of the travellers, Gösta Angerud (Roland Jansson) by telling him that he has an aunt at Nueva Estocolmo and gives Stig-Helmer the money in a christmas present.
