at this point Karl should stop getting the ability too cook
theres a song in The Emigrants called "Löss" (lice) and the song is basically Finna-Kajsa (an elderly woman who for some reason looks 17, which is already weird since nobody in The Emigrants looks older than their age, Kristina is 22 and she looks 45, Karl is 25 and he looks 50) who gets accused of causing a Lice outbreak on the ship.
Now, In the song there's a line where karl suggests to put lice in a sandwich. I thought Karl was just gonna create porridge that caused a toddler to get really horrible stomach problems but he's not done yet.
Somebody should stop Karl from cooking. Basically for some reason everyone is more devious in the musical. Kristina in the books and movies is a really kind and sweet person. but in the musical she is littearly the most aggresive person ever.
oh yeah... The guy who played Karl is in his 40s.
