Plot
Just weeks before their wedding, newly crowned King Edvard (Luke Mably) and his American fiancée Paige (Kam Heskin) find their relationship — and the Danish monarchy — in jeopardy. Edvard's childhood friend, Princess Kirsten (Clemency Burton-Hill), comes for a visit and plots to try to steal Edvard from Paige, both for her personal reasons (to become Queen of Denmark) and that her father, a Norwegian royal, is heavily in debt and seeks to marry Kirsten into the royal family's money. At one point Princess Kirsten teaches Paige how to say something in Danish. When Paige is asked to say something in Danish she says what Kirsten taught her and we come to find out the Paige has just called the Queen Mother a green donkey, which both offends and puzzles the royal family. An old law is also brought to light, one that requires a Danish king to be married to a Scandinavian princess before his 23rd birthday, or be forced to abdicate and relinquish the crown. The stress caused by the law causes Paige and Edvard to break up as Edvard plans to marry Princess Kirsten. Paige decides to stay in Denmark to finish her semester. During the "wedding" planning of princess Kristen and Edvard, Paige sees that through Edvard's body language that he does not love Kirsten and is only going through the motions. Paige is able to find a loophole in the succession law with the help of her friends, who are law students. The newer law states that any woman can be crowned a princess if she can demonstrate knowledge of the Danish Constitution by reading it in Danish before the Parliament. Luckily the Danish Parliament is present at the wedding, the Constitution is read, and the happy couple marries.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“James’s great gift, of course, was his ability to tell a plot in shimmering detail with such delicacy of treatment and such fine aloofness—that is, reluctance to engage in any direct grappling with what, in the play or story, had actually “taken place”Mthat his listeners often did not, in the end, know what had, to put it in another way, “gone on.””
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
“The westward march has stopped, upon the final plains of the Pacific; and now the plot thickens ... with the change, the pause, the settlement, our people draw into closer groups, stand face to face, to know each other and be known.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“There comes a time in every man’s education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better for worse as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
