In fact, she is struggling at school and, since it's her last year she needs to pass her final exam. It's almost not possible to get a job without the certificate. Frits also has problems. His health is declining and he refuses to see a doctor. When his condition rapidly deteriorates, Willy orders him to go to the hospital. It's too late, and her father suddenly dies.
