Story Transcript:

Da: Lars var i København og havde en sød tand.
En: Lars was in Copenhagen and had a sweet tooth.

Da: Han kiggede rundt på bagerier og stoppede ved en hyggelig lille butik.
En: He looked around at bakeries and stopped at a cozy little shop.

Da: Han trådte ind og fik øje på det mest lækre wienerbrød, han nogensinde havde set.
En: He stepped inside and caught sight of the most delicious pastry he had ever seen.

Da: Han købte det og skyndte sig ud.
En: He bought it and rushed out.

Da: Lars var så ivrig efter at smage wienerbrødet, at han ved et uheld trådte på det!
En: Lars was so eager to taste the pastry that he accidentally stepped on it!

Da: "WOW!"
En: "WOW!"

Da: Lars råbte højt, og kiggede rundt for at se, om nogen havde bemærket.
En: Lars shouted loudly, and looked around to see if anyone had noticed.

Da: Bageren kom over og Lars var bange for at skulle betale for det dyre wienerbrød... Lars indså, at der kun var en ting, han kunne gøre.
En: The baker came over and Lars was afraid of having to pay for the expensive pastry... Lars realized there was only one thing he could do.

Da: Han måtte overbevise bageren om, at han trådte på wienerbrødet med vilje.
En: He had to convince the baker that he stepped on the pastry on purpose.

Da: Lars løftede sin fod igen og trådte ned på wienerbrødet igen!
En: Lars lifted his foot again and stepped on the pastry again!

Da: Bageren virkede tilfreds, og Lars var lettet.
En: The baker seemed satisfied, and Lars was relieved.

Da: Han spiste wienerbrødet med smeltet chokolade og nød hvert eneste bid.
En: He ate the pastry with melted chocolate and enjoyed every bite.

Da: Fra den dag af var Lars mere forsigtig med skødesløs nedtrædning på dyre fødevarer.
En: From that day on, Lars was more careful about carelessly stepping on expensive food.

Da: Og han havde en god historie at fortælle til sine venner om det tidspunkt, hvor han 'trådte' på wienerbrødet med vilje.
En: And he had a good story to tell his friends about the time he 'stepped' on the pastry on purpose.
