Doo Bee Doo
Ariel, Bias, & Cody panic when they find a baby who was taken along with Ariel's shopping from the taxi. They tried to return the baby but circumstances forced them to take the baby back to the boarding house, even though there was a prohibition on keeping pets or bringing younger siblings, let alone children, so they had to hide the baby from the boarding house owner. Because they had no experience taking care of babies, they had a hard time taking care of the baby they named Sheyna.

Fun Fact
The film's original title in Swedish is 'Maria Larssons eviga ögonblick,' but it was released internationally under different titles, including 'The Everlasting Moments of Maria Larsson' and, in some markets, the less common 'Doo Bee Doo,' which appears to be a misattribution or a very niche release title, as the primary acclaimed Swedish film with a similar release year and themes is 'Maria Larssons eviga ögonblick' directed by Jan Troell, starring Maria Heiskanen.
