TELEVISION EPISODE
"Stockholm, December 1909"
Writer(s)	Matthew Jacobs
Airdate	N/A

"Stockholm, December 1909" was an unproduced episode of The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles which was intended to have been part of the third season of the series. The subjects of the episode concerned geography and ecology, based around "Where is Sweden?" as a theme, and the historical figure Indiana Jones would encounter was the Swedish author Selma Lagerlöf.

In the episode, Indiana Jones would fall asleep and have a dream intended to serve as a reference to Lagerlöf's most famous work Nils Holgerssons underbara resa genom Sverige ("The Wonderful Adventures of Nils"), a children's book about a boy that has been shrunk to five inches tall by a gnome's magic as a punishment for his mischief. Nils then travels over most of Sweden, sitting on the back of a flying goose.

While the episode itself went unmade, in "London, May 1916" (Love's Sweet Song), Jones tells Vicky Prentiss that Stockholm is one of his favorite cities, suggesting that the world lecture tour did reach Scandinavia. He later adopts the name of "Nils Anderson" while undercover as a Swedish reporter in "Istanbul, September 1918" (Masks of Evil).
