[00:08] What are you doing here?
[00:12] Tarek … – Hi!
[00:15] You know each other?
[00:17] Yeah, I help out in the restaurant sometimes.
[00:19] And you speak German!
[00:21] A bit. I'm doing an audio course.
[00:23] How long have you been in Germany?
[00:26] I came to Germany a few weeks ago.
[00:32] But why? I mean, what are you doing here?
[00:35] Nico was looking for you.
[00:37] But you were in Switzerland.
[00:39] How do you know that?
[00:40] It's a long story.
[00:43] Okay. And I want to hear the whole story from the beginning.
[00:48] Listen up, we'll all go to the restaurant, and I'll cook something and then
[00:53] after we eat, we'll tell you everything.
[00:57] Yeah. Okay.
[00:59] Okay.
[01:03] Thanks, Tarek. Very, very delicious!
[01:03] Mm!
[01:06] I'm glad you liked it!
[01:07] It's nice to be back. I almost got homesick.
[01:12] Homesick? Did you miss Spain?
[01:14] No. Spain is my home country.
[01:17] I come from Spain, but my home is Germany.
[01:21] And I missed Germany.
[01:23] Yeah, I get that. Germany's my home, too.
[01:26] I'm from Turkey, but I've lived here a long time.
[01:31] How long have you lived in Germany?
[01:33] I came here with my parents 30 years ago.
[01:36] I came to Germany 15 years ago to work as an au pair.
[01:40] It was a foreign country.
[01:40] The language, too.
[01:40] I mean, I was happy.
[01:44] I wanted to leave Spain and study in Germany.
[01:47] But it wasn't always easy.
[01:47] Everything was new.
[01:50] I was lucky.
[01:50] I had help.
[01:51] It's important to have help in a situation like that.
[01:54] I had my friend.
[01:56] You mean Sarah?
[01:56] Mm.
[01:57] Who's Sarah?
[01:58] My best friend.
[02:00] She moved to Switzerland five years ago.
[02:02] A few weeks ago, I got a phone call from Sarah.
[02:05] Her dad had died.
[02:06] Oh no.
[02:07] Mmm.
[02:07] It was awful.
[02:07] She needed my help.
[02:11] I packed my bags and flew to Zurich.
[02:14] Why didn't you say anything?
[02:16] And what's up with you?
[02:16] How long are you planning to stay?
[02:19] My parents don't understand me.
[02:19] They say I have to continue my studies.
[02:23] But I don't want to go to university anymore.
[02:24] I hate it.
[02:24] I hate law.
[02:24] I hate everything about it.
[02:27] I'm not as perfect as my brother …
[02:30] I want to work with my hands.
[02:33] I understand that.
[02:35] And what do you want to do now?
[02:35] Where will you live?
[02:39] How will you earn money and live?
[02:42] I definitely don't want to go back to Spain.
[02:52] Yara, please!
[02:54] You don't even know what you want.
[02:56] What do you want to do here in Germany?
[02:58] And what about your law studies?
[03:00] I know what I don't want.
[03:00] I don't want to go to university anymore.
[03:04] That's not enough..
[03:05] You simply left Spain.
[03:07] And I can tell you that a new beginning is very difficult!
[03:10] And without German skills it's a lot tougher!
[03:12] I can do it!
[03:12] I practice German every day, Yara!
[03:15] And now I'm learning even more quickly!
[03:17] You don't have any work.
[03:18] I'll look for some.
[03:19] Just like that?
[03:21] Good luck!
[03:23] You think I won't manage it.
[03:25] Like everyone else.
[03:36] Okay. But you're responsible for everything.
[03:41] Apartment, job and so on.
[03:43] I'm not doing it for you.
[03:45] Okay.
[03:48] I'll help you a bit.
[03:50] To start with, you can live with me.
[03:53] Thanks!
[03:54] And I want you to …
[03:55] Voy a hacer todo …
[03:57] Don't speak Spanish anymore. From now on, only German.
[04:01] That is the best way to learn the language.
[04:05] Call your parents right away.
[04:07] They have to know that you're with me.
[04:09] What? Why?
[04:11] Because they're worried.
[04:12] And I'm not lying to my sister.
[04:15] My parents don't understand German.
[04:18] Very funny.
[04:20] Putting it off any longer, won't make it better.
[04:30] And? How was your chat with your parents?
[04:33] They're very happy to hear that I'm doing well,
[04:35] they wish me a lot of luck, and they love me a lot.
[04:38] Really?
[04:39] No. They are …
[04:42] … very angry …?
[04:43] … furious …?
[04:45] Yeah. They're furious that I don't want to continue my studies.
[04:48] They're furious that I don't want to come back …
[04:52] And?
[04:53] I'm staying here.
[04:57] Okay. Let's go home!
[05:00] Okay.
[05:10] I have to go to the bank because I want to open an account.
[05:14] Very good. There's a lot you have to take care of now.
[05:18] I can't go to the bank today,
[05:19] because I have to go to Lisa's language class.
[05:23] What time do you have to go to Lisa's?
[05:25] I'm going to Lisa's at eleven.
[05:26] Then you can go to the bank afterward.
[05:26] You'll make it.
[05:29] Mmm.
[05:34] Here you go
[05:36] your welcome gift.
[05:39] Now you'll get around faster!
[05:41] Wow!
[05:43] Thanks!
[05:47] It's not really difficult.
[05:47] you go to the bank and say your name.
[05:51] Good day, I'm Nico González and I'd like to open an account please.
[05:55] Is that all?
[05:56] Not everything.
[05:57] The bank will want to know where you're from.
[05:59] I'm from Spain, Seville.
[06:01] Yeah.
[06:03] You can answer that one with your eyes shut.
[06:05] Then you'll have to fill out a form - your date of birth, your address …
[06:10] You can do it.
[06:11] I'll simply write …
[06:13] Tarek? Two schnitzels please!
[06:15] I'll just write Aunt Yara's address, right?
[06:18] Yeah, that's okay.
[06:22] Then they might ask you where you work.
[06:25] Of course the bank thinks it's better if you have a steady income.
[06:28] Can I say that I don't have a job yet?
[06:31] Yeah, that's okay.
[06:32] Good
[06:33] And then I can open an account?
[06:35] Yeah.
[06:36] And if there's a problem, call me.
[06:36] Okay?
[06:39] Okay.
[06:39] Good.
[06:43] Okay.
[06:44] Goodbye!
[06:44] Have a nice day.
[06:46] You, too!
[06:46] Thanks.
[06:56] Recipient, IBAN, reason for payment
[07:00] 335423. Enter the transaction number, send it, and done.
[07:07] And the next
[07:08] Hi, Yara.
[07:10] Hello, Tarek.
[07:13] Have you got a lot to do?
[07:15] Yeah. I haven't been here for a while and have a lot to take care of.
[07:19] Pay invoices, answer e-mails, place orders
[07:23] Okay.
[07:28] The thing with the rent is…
[07:30] Thanks for taking care of that for me.
[07:33] I totally forgot to transfer the rent.
[07:35] No problem.
[07:38] Look, Tarek!
[07:40] Nico has his own bank account.
[07:43] Oh!
[07:46] Hey, Nico!
[07:48] Selma! What are you doing here?
[07:50] A bank account?
[07:51] Does that mean you're staying here? In Germany?
[07:54] Yeah.
[07:56] Cool. And what do you want to do? Go to university?
[07:58] No, I… I studied law in Spain for two semesters.
[08:03] I don't want to go to university any more.
[08:04] I want to work with my hands, learn a trade.
[08:08] You want to do an apprenticeship?
[08:11] Yeah, I think so.
[08:12] Then you have to learn German fast.
[08:14] I'm going to language class soon. Do you want to come?
[08:16] Yeah, sure.
[08:18] But first I have to stop at a cash machine for money.
[08:20] A bank machine…
[08:23] You speak German very well.
[08:25] I've already been here a year.
[08:25] Can you wait a moment?
[08:28] Of course.
[08:37] I'm sorry.
[08:40] What happened?
[08:41] First, I put the card in the machine.
[08:44] Then I pressed "withdraw money."
[08:46] Then came an error message.
[08:47] I couldn't even enter my PIN and the card never came back out.
[08:51] One of the bank clerks had to help me.
[08:54] But it worked?
[08:57] We can go now!
[09:21] Hello?
[09:24] I'm at my language class.
[09:26] You know that.
[09:30] Yeah, I'll do it.
[09:32] Bye!
[09:34] Was that your dad on the phone?
[09:36] No, that was my mother.
[09:38] She's worried because I haven't called.
[09:40] I told her that I was at my language class.
[09:44] Perhaps she just forgot.
[09:47] Yeah, for the hundredth time.
[09:50] I know that feeling.
[09:50] My parents never listen to me either.
[09:53] It doesn't matter to them what I think.
[09:58] But you get to be in Germany.
[10:00] I ran away.
[10:03] Anyway, I'm an adult.
[10:03] I can be wherever I want to be.
[10:06] You, too.
[10:10] I would never leave my family.
[10:13] Okay …
[10:36] What song is that, Sebastian?
[10:38] Silent night.
[10:40] It's a German Christmas song.
[10:42] It sounds pretty.
[10:43] Yeah.
[10:44] We can translate the song in the next class and learn it.
[10:47] Are you interested?
[10:48] Sure.
[10:49] Of course.
[10:51] These pictures are great!
[10:52] Yeah, cool pictures.
[10:54] Do you also take  …
[10:55] Portraits?
[10:56] Mmm.
[10:57] No, I … I've got another project, too.
[11:00] It'll be awesome.
[11:01] What kind of project?
[11:03] I won't tell you yet..
[11:04] Sebastian, can we do the language exercise with the your new pictures today?
[11:09] Of course.
[11:10] Why not?
[11:10] What is it about?
[11:12] To begin, review.
[11:13] Selma, please describe one of Sebastian's portraits.
[11:22] There are two elderly men with gray hair.
[11:27] The man wearing brown pants is tall
[11:30] and he looks a bit sad.
[11:33] The man with the black coat is shorter.
[11:36] Very good.
[11:37] Nico, can you do that, too?
[11:40] Not as well!
[11:41] Try it!
[11:41] Describe your family.
[11:43] Who is part of it?
[11:46] My grandparents.
[11:49] I have parents,
[11:51] a brother
[11:53] and three aunts.
[11:55] One aunt has two sons.
[11:56] Your cousins.
[11:57] My cousins, yeah.
[11:59] And what does your brother look like?
[12:03] He has dark hair.
[12:06] And?
[12:09] I don't know.
[12:12] He looks perfectly normal.
[12:18] Okay … Selma?
[12:25] The picture …
[12:27] Okay.
[12:33] Ibrahim?
[12:45] Ibrahim!
[12:49] My other grandparents live in a nursing home.
[12:52] They need a lot of help because they're very old.
[12:55] My grandpa can't even eat by himself any more.
[12:57] My grandma has problems because her eyes are bad.
[13:00] She can't see very well.
[13:02] Selma? Your cellphone.
[13:13] Oh no!
[13:15] What's the matter?
[13:16] My mother called five times.
[13:19] Only five?
[13:22] I have to go!
[13:24] What happened?
[13:27] My father is at the doctor's, because he …
[13:29] He had … circulatory?
[13:31] He had a circulatory collapse?
[13:33] Yeah, I don't know, I have to go!
[13:35] Should I drive you there?
[13:36] I can get you there quickly by car.
[13:46] Oh! Oh, I'm sorry!
[13:48] Excuse me.
[13:49] Gosh, young woman! We know each other, don't we?
[13:52] Ms. Kohlhaas?
[13:53] Ah, Inge!
[13:54] How are you my dear?
[13:56] Not very well. My dad passed out.
[13:58] Oh that's awful!
[14:00] I hope that he gets well again soon.
[14:02] I hope so too. He has too much stress.
[14:04] He has to rest now for a bit.
[14:06] And how are you doing?
[14:07] Fantastic!
[14:09] I was just at the doctor. Just some minor ailments …
[14:11] I think I'm as fit as a fiddle.
[14:14] And what is my son doing?
[14:16] What is your son doing?
[14:17] He's looking into retirement homes. He thinks that would be good for me.
[14:21] He's doing that because he thinks that I'm lonely.
[14:24] What nonsense! I'm not lonely!
[14:27] I'm sure he means well.
[14:28] Well …
[14:30] Mrs. … Inge, excuse me …
[14:32] Of course! You want to get to your father.
[14:34] I'm fine! No worries. Go on!
[14:37] Thanks!
[14:45] Selma writes: "My father is doing well.
[14:49] He can go home tomorrow.
[14:49] Best, Selma.
[14:54] – Luckily …
[14:56] – Hi.
[14:58] – Hey.
[14:58] – Hello.
[14:59] – Nico, how nice it is to see you.
[15:00] Tell me, you can't be serious?
[15:03] – About what?
[15:04] – About this!
[15:04] This mess.
[15:07] – Can I tidy up later maybe?
[15:09] – Oh, like in a month?
[15:10] – Now calm down.
[15:11] – No!
[15:11] You've been wanting to vacuum for weeks and I haven't seen it happen yet.
[15:14] You haven't taken out the trash again.
[15:14] Come on, people!
[15:17] I told you yesterday:
[15:18] "Please, please take the trash out, tidy up, clean the bathroom!
[15:22] And someone has to return the deposit bottles."
[15:23] But no!
[15:23] I can do it all.
[15:23] No big deal.
[15:27] – Yeah, Nina, we're sorry.
[15:27] We didn't have any time.
[15:32] – Can I help?
[15:33] – No, Nico.
[15:33] We live here.
[15:33] We can do it ourselves.
[15:38] – But we also have a vacant room, don't we?
[15:43] – That's a good idea!
[15:51] What is?
[15:53] Nico, would you like to move in?
[16:02] Good day! How are you today?
[16:04] Good day!
[16:05] Look at that there!
[16:07] The garbage can is lying in front of my store again.
[16:10] The neighbor, Mr. Murz, keeps putting it directly in front of my window!
[16:15] And?
[16:15] Yeah well … You're the landlord here.
[16:18] Couldn't you please just tell him that it's not right and that he should be considerate towards his neighbors?
[16:23] He doesn't listen to me.
[16:24] It's not that bad.
[16:26] Don't get so upset about it all the time!
[16:29] I'm not getting upset about it.
[16:31] But I need customers to pay my rent.
[16:33] That's something that would be in your interest, too, right?
[16:35] I … will speak to him.
[16:37] I don't want quarrels here between neighbors.
[16:39] I don't want to quarrel with him either, but he's asking for it!
[16:43] He parks his car in front of the store, listens to very loud music, is impolite and …
[16:48] Yeah, yeah, we've all got problems.
[16:50] I have to talk to you about something,
[16:53] but … it's not urgent.
[16:56] We'll do it another time.
[16:57] Glad to have you back, Ms. González!
[17:00] Hello.
[17:00] Hello.
[17:01] Good afternoon.
[17:01] Goodbye.
[17:07] Who was that?
[17:09] My landlord, Mr. Friese.
[17:11] I just complained to him about my neighbor.
[17:13] He's always putting his trash in front of my store.
[17:18] You've become very German!
[17:21] No I haven't!
[17:23] But you have!
[17:29] Mm, that smells good!
[17:29] May I try it?
[17:32] Yes, of course.
[17:45] What's the matter?
[17:45] Is everything okay?
[17:47] Yeah, why?
[17:49] Why?
[17:49] I can see that you're not doing well.
[17:52] Yeah, I know.
[17:52] I overreacted a bit just now.
[17:59] That wasn't what I asked.
[18:04] Lisa …
[18:08] I'm pregnant.
[18:12] Wow!
[18:13] Yeah, wow.
[18:13] What am I supposed to do now?
[18:18] Yeah, Nina, you should be happy!
[18:18] You're having a kid, that's great!
[18:25] You can't lose your nerves now.
[18:28] Oh, well.
[18:30] Who's the father?
[18:31] Dario.
[18:33] But you've only been together for a few weeks.
[18:35] Yeah.
[18:37] You have to tell him.
[18:38] I don't even know how this kid …
[18:42] How am I supposed to do it all?
[18:45] I can't raise a kid right now, man.
[18:45] I'm still doing my job training.
[18:48] Come on, Nina.
[18:48] There are day cares, nanny shares.
[18:52] Other mothers get it done, too.
[18:55] You shouldn't be so worried.
[18:59] I know that you'll be a great mother.
[19:10] And… here you go!
[19:14] To Nico's new apartment!
[19:14] Cheers!
[19:19] Congratulations, Nico.
[19:21] Thank you, Inge.
[19:25] Where do you live now?
[19:27] I'm living in an apartment with Lisa, Nina and Sebastian.
[19:30] A shared apartment, right?
[19:34] It was different in my day.
[19:34] We lived with our families.
[19:37] It was cheaper.
[19:38] Most people today move to another city after high school for their studies or job training.
[19:43] Or even to another country.
[19:44] Yeah, people today move much more often than they used to.
[19:47] But you can also live alone.
[19:49] That's expensive.
[19:51] Most of the time, too expensive.
[19:52] Is there really such a big difference?
[19:55] A lot of times, yes.
[19:56] Besides that, it's nicer to not have to live alone.
[19:58] That's true.
[19:59] Living together with other people is what I like best.
[20:02] And I'd rather live in a small room than at my parents' house!
[20:05] I enjoyed living with you, of course.
[20:08] Hola, Nico.
[20:13] Pepe!
[20:16] Who is Pepe?
[20:17] Pepe is my older brother.
[20:19] Oh!
[20:21] Ven, Nico.
[20:22] I don't speak Spanish here.
[20:24] Suit yourself!
[20:24] Come on!
[20:24] We're flying back to Spain.
[20:28] No, I'm not going with you.
[20:28] I'm staying here in Germany.
[20:31] I came all the way from Munich.
[20:34] First I wanted to fly but the flight was cancelled.
[20:37] Then I took the bus here and couldn't sleep the whole way.
[20:40] I'm really tired.
[20:40] So please, let's just go!
[20:43] No.
[20:43] Feel free to go.
[20:43] I spoke to Dad on the phone.
[20:46] I don't think you understand.
[20:48] Dad told me that I'm supposed to bring you back.
[20:51] The next flight to Seville
[20:52] via Madrid or Barcelona is probably tomorrow morning.
[20:52] Okay?
[20:56] Alright, have a nice flight.
[21:00] Listen, I don't really care what you do!
[21:02] But our parents are very worried!
[21:05] You only cause problems, Nico!
[21:06] I'm asking you nicely to go now.
[21:12] We'll clear this up tomorrow!
[21:20] – In spite of it all – cheers!
[21:33] – Good evening, what can I do for you?
[21:36] – Have you got a vacant room?
[21:38] – Will you be taking the room for just one night or longer?
[21:41] – For now, just one night. I may stay longer.
[21:44] – I assume you're taking a single room? Is that correct?
[21:47] – Yes please. A single room.
[21:49] – Would you like the room with breakfast or without?
[21:52] Breakfast is not included in the price.
[21:55] – Without breakfast, please.
[21:57] – Then I just need your ID or passport.
[22:00] The room is on the fourth floor.
[22:12] That'll be 139 euros for one night without breakfast.
[22:16] Will you be paying cash or credit card?
[22:17] – I'll be paying with a credit card.
[22:30] – My apologies but your card has not been accepted.
[22:39] Thanks.
[22:42] Apologies for the inconvenience.
[22:44] As I said, your room is on the fourth floor. The elevator is just ahead to the right.
[22:49] I hope you have a pleasant stay!
[22:51] – Yes, thank you. Me, too!
[23:05] – Are you doing okay, Inge?
[23:07] – Me? Of course.
[23:10] Ah …
[23:12] Apartment shares and trips …
[23:15] I just sit around all day. Either at home or here.
[23:20] – Why? You're fit. You've got time.
[23:24] Why don't you go away? Take a vacation!
[23:26] – That's too complicated.
[23:28] – Oh nonsense! Tarek? Can you bring your laptop here?
[23:31] – What? Why?
[23:33] – Because we're booking a a short trip together.
[23:36] – Yeah!
[23:38] Wait! Stop! Just a minute! That sounds good! Offers for seniors' groups:
[23:43] a train ride through Rheintal to Bingen am Rhein,
[23:47] with lunch and city tour.
[23:49] – Where does the train leave from?
[23:51] – Cologne's main station.
[23:52] – And when?
[23:53] – Departure is at 9:45 from platform 7.
[23:56] – How much does it cost?
[23:58] – It costs 50 Euros round trip and you don't have to switch trains.
[24:01] You arrive in Bingen am Rhein at quarter to twelve.
[24:05] You return at half past six that evening.
[24:08] – Mmm, great!
[24:10] But it's all on one day? That would be too stressful for me.
[24:13] – True.
[24:14] – You could also stay the night in Bingen.
[24:16] We're sure to find a hotel room for you. Should we book it?
[24:22] – Yeah!
[24:24] – Okay!
[24:26] That’s that.
[24:27] Now we'll print out the train connections and look for a hotel room.
[24:31] – Oh that's great! You guys are incredible! I'm so excited!
[24:39] – Excuse me! Which tram line stops at the hospital?
[24:43] – The 66 stops at the hospital.
[24:46] Are you sick?
[24:47] Should I call a taxi instead?
[24:49] – Thank you very much
[24:51] but I just left my ID there.
[24:53] – How annoying!
[24:55] – The 64? Does that also stop at the hospital?
[24:58] – The 64 goes a different direction, to the airport.
[25:02] That won't help you.
[25:04] – Okay.
[25:05] Do I need a regular ticket? Do you know?
[25:09] – To get to the hospital, you'll need a ticket that costs 3.80 euros.
[25:15] Just a minute, I'll help you!
[25:18] Oh, there's a faster connection with the 16.
[25:22] The route is shorter, but you'll have to switch once.
[25:24] – How long is the trip without switching?
[25:27] – 15 minutes longer.
[25:28] – Then without switching.
[25:34] – Here you are.
[25:45] – Thank you very much!
[25:47] Have a nice evening.
[25:49] – You're welcome. You, too!
[26:20] – What's left outside?
[26:21] – The furniture.
[26:22] – You have furniture?
[26:24] – Yeah, I have a wardrobe, a bed and a mattress.
[26:30] – Everything from the secondhand store.
[26:32] – Carrying furniture … I'm going to have to shower again soon.
[26:35] – Oh, Nico and I can do it, right?
[26:37] – Yeah!
[26:38] – Really?
[26:39] – Yes, but on one condition.
[26:41] – Aha!
[26:43] – You help with my photo project.
[26:45] – Which project?
[26:47] – Ok, listen up. I want to show German figures of speech as photographs.
[26:52] – Wow.
[26:53] – Wait. I want to show it all literally, word for word.
[26:57] – That sounds cool. Can I use the photos for my language exercises?
[27:01] – Of course! So does that mean you're in?
[27:03] – Yeah, right now I have enough spare time. It suits me. I look forward to it!
[27:05] – Super.
[27:06] – Then you can think about which figures of speech are important
[27:09] and especially interesting and then decide.
[27:12] And we'll talk about it tomorrow.
[27:14] – Okay.
[27:15] – Perfect!
[27:18] – And the wardrobe?
[27:30] – Hello, Nico!
[27:31] – Hello, Inge!
[27:33] – I only have a bit of time.
[27:35] I wanted to bring you a few things for the move
[27:38] - little things. You can really use them.
[27:42] Sorry, I have to go.
[27:45] I've booked this day trip.
[27:47] I mean, Tarek and Max have booked this day trip for me.
[27:50] I'd prefer to cancel it.
[27:52] I'm getting five e-mails a day for recreational activities, tickets, ads.
[27:57] I don't even know what I'm supposed to do with it all.
[28:00] It's probably all advertising.
[28:02] There are so many offers: I can go hiking, sailing, surfing.
[28:08] Can you imagine that? Surfing?
[28:10] What are they even thinking? At my age! Alright …
[28:12] No, no, no, go on. I don't want to keep you from your work.
[28:16] I don't even have time.
[28:17] I have to go shopping and I have to ask Tarek and Max
[28:21] if they've found a hotel for me. It's all so stressful …
[28:26] – Can I help you?
[28:26] – No, you've already done enough.
[28:29] – Ok, my dears, take care. And come visit me, Nico, hm?
[28:33] – Thanks, Inge, I will. And many thanks for the things.
[28:35] – Yeah …
[28:38] – She really doesn't have time.
[28:40] – No time.
[28:43] – Your brother works in Germany?
[28:45] – Yeah, for a few years now. He has his own firm.
[28:48] – And why does he want you to go back to Spain?
[28:52] – He always does what my parents want him to.
[28:54] Pepe isn't really interested in me. He doesn't care about me …
[28:57] – He doesn't care about you.
[28:59] – He doesn't care about me.
[29:01] – Your brother annoys you right?
[29:03] – Annoys? Yeah. I get annoyed at my brother a lot.
[29:10] – Come on, don't get so upset about him now.
[29:13] He isn't welcome here.
[29:14] – Thanks. – Yeah.
[29:17] What was in the mail?
[29:20] – A letter from the night school.
[29:23] – Oh, an answer?
[29:26] – Well then, open it!
[29:28] – I'm scared to.
[29:29] – It's an acceptance letter for sure.
[29:31] – This … Nina? This is a letter. Hm?
[29:35] – Right. This is an envelope.
[29:38] And this here is a postage stamp.
[29:40] Then you write the address on the envelope and put the
[29:43] letter in the mailbox.
[29:46] – Okay. I understand.
[29:50] – An acceptance!
[29:54] – Awesome! I hope you'll still have time for my photography project?
[29:57] – Of course. I'm excited about your project. I'm in!
[30:00] – That's my girl!
[30:03] – A celebratory pizza?
[30:05] – I'd like to have a pizza with pepperoni.
[30:10] – What an idiot!
[30:13] – Oh! I hope you don't mean me.
[30:16] – Oh, no, sorry.
[30:17] Have you spoken with Mr. Murz?
[30:20] I'm still frustrated about that … – Yeah, yeah, all right.
[30:21] Ms. González, have you got a moment?
[30:23] I wanted to speak to you about something.
[30:26] – Yes!
[30:28] There will be a rent increase next year. Rent will be more expensive in January.
[30:35] – You can't be serious.
[30:36] – Did you think that you would always pay the same price?
[30:39] The market is changing, the prices, too.
[30:42] – I pay enough.
[30:43] And you already raised my rent two years ago.
[30:46] – I can understand that you aren't
[30:47] happy about the rent increase, Ms. González, but …
[30:50] I won't discuss it with you.
[30:52] – Do you know that many people who run such small businesses
[30:55] have to close their shops because the rents keep increasing?
[30:59] – That's tragic. But it doesn't interest me.
[31:02] – Yeah, I'm not surprised.
[31:04] People like you are only think about themselves.
[31:07] I will not be paying higher rent under any circumstance!
[31:10] – We have time to clarify that.
[31:11] Goodbye, Ms. González!
[31:20] – So, Nico. What are you interested in?
[31:24] – I'm interested in soccer.
[31:26] – Aw, he's interested in soccer. Another one!
[31:29] – Yeah, sorry. I like soccer.
[31:31] – As all men do.
[31:33] – You can also ask Nico,
[31:35] if he's interested in other things.
[31:38] – Okay.
[31:40] Are you interested in …
[31:45] literature?
[31:47] – Literature?
[31:47] – Yeah. Do you like to read? Or have you got a lot of books?
[31:51] For example, novels or detective stories …
[31:53] – Of course.
[31:55] I have …
[31:57] – … always …?
[31:59] – I've always been interested in books.
[32:02] – You're very interested in politics, too, right?
[32:06] – Politics? Me? Why?
[32:07] – Because politicians lie so much.
[32:11] – Last question: Selma, what are you especially good at?
[32:17] – Hm …
[32:18] – Can you ride a bicycle?
[32:20] – I can't ride a bicycle.
[32:23] – Really?
[32:24] – Yeah.
[32:25] – But that's impossible. Everyone here rides bikes!
[32:27] I'll teach you. I promise.
[32:29] Have you got time tomorrow?
[32:33] – Okay …
[32:35] – Wait, Selma!
[32:37] Nico first has to say what he can't do well.
[32:41] I think he can't sing well?
[32:44] – You said you'd teach us a Christmas song. Hm?
[32:48] – Yeah …
[32:49] – Well, then …
[32:54] – Why don't we go fishing more often?
[32:55] – Hm?
[32:56] – I'd like to eat another fish that I caught myself.
[32:59] – Oh, please, no!
[33:00] – Why, "please no"?
[33:02] – We've gone fishing at least ten times and only caught one fish.
[33:05] – Yeah, but the fish was a big one.
[33:06] – And it tasted terrible.
[33:08] We're really terrible fishermen, Max.
[33:10] – We're also terrible at soccer.
[33:11] – What? That's not at all true!
[33:13] – Nico?
[33:14] – You're very bad soccer players.
[33:16] – I don't even want to remember that last game.
[33:18] – What about volleyball? You could play volleyball.
[33:20] – No one likes volleyball.
[33:22] – I like volleyball!
[33:23] – I love volleyball.
[33:24] – Okay. Let's just say: Not everyone hates volleyball,
[33:26] but only a few of us like volleyball.
[33:28] – Okay, what about horseback riding?
[33:29] You like horses.
[33:30] – Riding? Just how am I supposed to ride without a horse?
[33:34] – There must be a riding club in the area.
[33:37] – Yes and no. I like horses, but I can't ride them.
[33:40] And I don't want to learn.
[33:41] – I'm just saying we could do something together again. Oh.
[33:49] – You can leave right away.
[33:52] – Can we talk, Nico?
[33:55] Please give me a chance! I'd like you to at least listen to me.
[33:59] – I believe you said everything already yesterday.
[34:04] – He's your brother, Nico.
[34:07] At least listen to what he wants to tell you.
[34:12] – Nico, I know that Dad isn't always easy.
[34:15] – No, you don't know that. You always do what you want.
[34:18] No problem. Pepe, our great son, he has his own business in Germany
[34:22] and earns a lot of money. You don't know.
[34:24] – And? You want to start your own business here, too?
[34:27] I can help you! I can support you.
[34:31] – No thanks.
[34:32] – Nico, I respect your decision.
[34:35] But I don't think it will work out.
[34:36] – Why not?
[34:38] – I can't imagine
[34:39] that you can do it without help from Mom and Dad.
[34:42] And I'm worried, too.
[34:44] – It doesn't matter to me what you think.
[34:46] And I don't believe that you worry.
[34:48] – I do, Nico.
[34:49] – No, you just want to have your peace.
[34:51] – No, I want you all to stop fighting.
[34:55] I thought about something.
[34:59] I'll stay here.
[35:02] – How long?
[35:03] – A few days, a few weeks. Maybe longer. I'll help you.
[35:12] – I don't know. I'll think about it.
[35:18] – Nico, where do you want to go?
[35:19] – Home.
[35:28] – Ladies, cleaning the bathroom every two weeks is enough.
[35:32] – Every two weeks? – Yeah!
[35:34] – Forget it! We have to clean more often.
[35:36] – Congatulations, Lisa. You have another job.
[35:38] You can clean the bathroom every day.
[35:40] – Funny!
[35:41] – Knock it off! I really don't know how I'm supposed to do it all.
[35:44] – What then?
[35:45] – The language classes, the volunteer work.
[35:47] I want to be involved. I like the work,
[35:50] but I don't have time anymore because of the job.
[35:52] – Sorry, I'm a bit late.
[35:54] – Yeah, no problem. We don't have a say anyway, Nico.
[35:56] – Here: the new apartment schedule.
[36:00] – The plan looks fair.
[36:03] – See?
[36:06] Lisa, how can we help you?
[36:08] – I don't know.
[36:11] – Okay, well maybe we can take on your chores here at home -
[36:14] for the first few weeks.
[36:16] Sebastian can clean the bathroom for you.
[36:18] – What?
[36:19] – Ah, it wouldn't hurt. And with some more practice, you'll get faster.
[36:21] – Very funny!
[36:23] – Nico, what do you have to say about it?
[36:25] – Yes! Of course!
[36:26] – Nico, why …?
[36:28] – Thanks, you guys! It's just be a few weeks.
[36:30] I'll pay you back.
[36:31] – Glad to help!
[36:34] – There's nothing better than riding a bike. Total freedom!
[36:38] – Pure Leidenschaft!
[36:39] – Pure Körperkraft!
[36:42] – Ah! – Ah … Ha?
[36:44] – Es gibt doch nichts Schöneres als Radfahren. Pure ... Freiheit!
[36:48] – Pure Leidenschaft!
[36:51] – Es gibt doch nichts Schöneres als Radfahren. Pure Freiheit!
[36:55] – Total passion!
[36:56] – Total physical strength!
[36:58] – Ah!
[36:58] – Total physical strength!
[37:00] – Oh no, did anything happen to you?
[37:02] – No, not me. But my bike …
[37:06] – Oh no!
[37:10] – Do I have to repair a bicycle?
[37:13] – Amazing! Yara is …
[37:15] – … thg bicycle specialist!
[37:18] – Because I love bikes.
[37:23] Yeah, you like that, huh?
[37:25] – Yeah!
[37:26] I repair bicycles, broken brakes, defective lights, flat tires,
[37:30] broken hearts.
[37:32] – Stop, Max! That's terrible wording.
[37:35] – I don't know what's wrong. You said you need advertising.
[37:37] – Yeah. I need good, imaginative advertising.
[37:41] Mr. Friese is raising my rent. So I need more customers.
[37:44] Or else I'll have to close the shop.
[37:46] – Maybe you can hire an ad agency.
[37:49] – Do you know how much that costs? That's far too expensive.
[37:52] I'd rather do it myself.
[37:53] I need … ten percent more customers.
[37:58] – That's quite a lot, isn't it?
[38:00] – Exactly. And where can you reach a lot of people?
[38:02] – On the internet!
[38:04] – Yes!
[38:08] – Your company builds websites.
[38:10] – We design digital solutions: Marketing concepts, blogs …
[38:15] – Yeah, okay. I'd like to know, if you can help me.
[38:18] I need more customers.
[38:20] Would it happen with a new website?
[38:22] – Yara, a website alone is not enough.
[38:25] You have to be active on social media networks.
[38:28] People have to like your page.
[38:31] You have to have to be able to post
[38:33] with a smart phone, tablet, laptop - at all times, from anywhere.
[38:38] – I just have a small bike shop.
[38:40] I think an updated website is enough to start with.
[38:43] I mean, I never use social media.
[38:45] – Well, maybe you should start to.
[38:49] – But you know so much about it.
[38:52] Can't you just build a website for me?
[38:56] Pepe?
[38:57] – What?
[38:58] – I asked you if you could build a website for me.
[39:01] – I have employees who do that stuff.
[39:03] – Yeah, could they do it?
[39:07] – Yara, we get orders from huge companies.
[39:11] And your shop here is simply too small. It's not worth it.
[39:15] – But it's my bike shop. And I'm your aunt.
[39:23] Maybe Nico was right. You aren't interested in your family at all.
[39:31] – Sorry.
[39:37] – Where are you going, Selma?
[39:40] – Where am I going?
[39:41] To my language class.
[39:43] – But you were there yesterday.
[39:44] – Yeah, that's true. And today I have lessons again.
[39:48] Honestly, Mama, you don't have to worry.
[39:52] – Okay. See you later.
[39:55] – I'll text you when I'm done!
[39:59] – Hey, Selma!
[40:03] I'm here.
[40:05] How long do you still need?
[40:09] I'm waiting for you.
[40:14] Wait, how did that go again?
[40:17] LG … Liebe Grüße! Yeah!
[40:22] Liebe Grüße.
[40:32] – Nico?
[40:37] – And then coffee at Max and Tarek's?
[40:41] I look forward to seeing you!
[40:46] – I'm sorry, but I can't come.
[40:57] – What?
[41:40] – Voice mail: save
[41:45] So, the next …
[41:56] – Yeah?
[41:57] – Good day, González here …
[41:59] – Finally! Do you know how often I called today?
[42:03] – I'm sorry, I was busy.
[42:05] – I hope so. I have a complaint.
[42:07] – Yes, that's what you wrote in your mail.
[42:10] – I'm extremely unhappy.
[42:12] The app doesn't work. The website is too confusing.
[42:15] How can you find anything on it?
[42:17] – I understand your problem.
[42:18] We can change your website to meet your wishes.
[42:21] – You won't be changing anything. Our cooperation is over.
[42:25] – But Mr. Troyzig …
[42:26] – The tablets you recommended are also crap!
[42:30] They're much too slow. I'd like to exchange them.
[42:32] I still have the invoices.
[42:34] – You have every right to …
[42:35] – What's that supposd to mean? I'll get my money back, right?
[42:38] I have a warranty for the return.
[42:40] – Unfortunately, that's not possible, Mr. Troyzig.
[42:44] – Not possible? We'll see about that!
[42:57] – Next …
[43:03] – Hi! – Hi!
[43:04] – May I take your coat?
[43:05] – Yes, please.
[43:11] – Your scarf as well? – Yes!
[43:22] – Thanks.
[43:22] – I don't want to give away too much, but
[43:25] in the end, the woman meets the her prince.
[43:28] – And I thought the author would come up with something better.
[43:32] – Unfortunately not.
[43:35] May I take the seat next to you?
[43:38] – Because the pub's full?
[43:41] – I don't like to eat alone.
[43:43] A good meal is one that you eat
[43:46] in the company of nice people.
[43:50] – Please do!
[43:51] – Thanks.
[43:57] My name, by the way, is Jacques.
[44:00] – Inge.
[44:02] – My pleasure, Inge.
[44:05] – Are you also doing the day trip?
[44:07] – No, I'm on a stopover.
[44:10] You might say that I'm working here.
[44:12] I test German restaurants.
[44:15] – You test German restaurants?
[44:17] Who do you work for? For television?
[44:20] – No.
[44:22] No, I own three restaurants in France
[44:25] and I now want to open a restaurant in Germany.
[44:30] – But?
[44:32] – Well, the standard German dishes are always so simple:
[44:39] Bratwurst, Currywurst, it's always about the sausage.
[44:43] You know, Inge, I enjoy cooking.
[44:47] And for me, a good dish is one that is truly delicious.
[44:52] It doesn't hurt to be elaborate.
[44:55] – I agree with you there.
[44:56] But I wouldn't agree that we only eat sausages in Germany.
[45:01] The French don't always eat just baguettes, do they?
[45:04] – No, of course you're right!
[45:08] But my restaurants are for foodies.
[45:12] I have the best chefs.
[45:14] Chefs should be people who are innovative.
[45:20] Are you a foodie, Inge?
[45:23] – I don't know.
[45:25] – I think you are.
[45:27] I'm certain that you have great taste.
[45:31] Alright, shall we order? – Yes.
[45:38] – Here you go. – Thank you.
[45:40] – Here you go. – Thanks.
[45:47] – My parents are from France.
[45:49] That's why I have a French name.
[45:51] – I thought as much. You speak German without an accent.
[45:55] My parents are from Klein-Hellersdorf. That's why I'm called Inge.
[46:02] – You've got a sense of humor, Inge.
[46:03] – Not many would say that.
[46:07] – Well, not many are paying attention.
[46:10] Have you chosen something from the menu?
[46:12] – Oh how could I? I haven't had a chance to look.
[46:15] – Germans always eat the same thing anyway.
[46:16] – Oh what nonsense!
[46:18] – Of course.
[46:20] I'll show you.
[46:23] That man over there …
[46:26] Yesterday that man had the Wiener schnitzel with croquettes and vegetables.
[46:30] He'll order the same today.
[46:33] Perhaps with French fries this time.
[46:36] And the lady likes tomato soup.
[46:39] She'll take a mixed salad with grilled chicken as well.
[46:44] – I'll bet that woman orders something different.
[46:48] – You want to bet?
[46:51] – I want to bet.
[46:53] – If you lose then you have to meet me again.
[46:59] – You're on.
[47:03] – Hi! What can I bring you?
[47:06] – I'll take the pork liver with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes.
[47:11] A small portion please.
[47:13] – Yes, gladly.
[47:14] – And I'll take the sausage platter.
[47:17] I've also got an appetite for a bit of goat's cheese as a starter.
[47:21] – Of course.
[47:22] – Oh, and a glass of water, please.
[47:25] – Coming straightaway.
[47:25] – Thanks.
[47:35] – Alright, one roulade with boiled potatoes and red cabbage.
[47:45] – Did it taste good?
[47:47] – Thanks, it was very good. And yours?
[47:49] – Yeah, it was okay.
[47:50] – Oh, you're a moaner.
[47:53] – That's not true! The goat's cheese was delicious. Wonderfully intensive.
[47:58] But the spicy sausage didn't taste good.
[48:00] Pretty boring. It was missing the right spices.
[48:03] And overall, it was missing a delicate sauce,
[48:06] which one simply needs for such a dish.
[48:08] – Yeah well, you're a chef yourself. That's why you are more critical.
[48:12] – To be honest, I am a pastry chef. I used to have my own pastry shop.
[48:17] – Ah, so you're the person one sees in the bakery every morning.
[48:21] The man who bakes bread and rolls and decorates wedding cakes?
[48:27] – Yes! But I haven't done that in a long time.
[48:31] But I used to bake the best pies and cakes in town.
[48:36] Whether it was sweet or savory: the dough I made was always perfect.
[48:42] – That sounds interesting.
[48:44] – But I'm sure you love to bake, too.
[48:48] – Yes. Of course.
[48:51] – What kind of cake can you bake the best?
[48:55] – Marble cake.
[48:56] – Awesome! Marble cake is the kind I loved to eat as a kid!
[49:01] – Me, too!
[49:02] – Would you like to have dessert?
[49:04] – Choose something!
[49:05] – Please bring us two pieces of lemon cake as well.
[49:08] And two glasses of the champagne that you recommended yesterday.
[49:12] – Jacques!
[49:14] – Yes, well why not?
[49:18] – To you, Inge!
[49:19] – To good company and good food!
[49:24] – Good company is something that I highly value.
[49:28] And good food, too.
[49:30] And now I have both.
[49:35] – So by profession, you were a pastry chef.
[49:39] Why do you now own restaurants?
[49:42] – Well, my parents had a small bistro in Hamburg.
[49:46] My father was a man who loved food.
[49:49] Later, I was allowed to cook and bake by myself and then I was
[49:52] trained as a pastry chef.
[49:56] – But then, baking the same cakes all the time wasn't enough for you?
[50:00] – Precisely.
[50:01] Along with my job as a pastry chef, I worked as a restaurant critic
[50:06] and traveled throughout the country. And even in France.
[50:10] Do you know,
[50:12] France is a country I love.
[50:15] – You love a lot of things …
[50:18] – I think, at some point I just didn't want to criticize anymore.
[50:22] I wanted to do it better.
[50:24] So I opened my first restaurant.
[50:27] – That sounds really exciting.
[50:29] – Well, sounds more romantic than it is.
[50:32] We'd like to pay please!
[50:34] Of course, it's on me!
[50:37] – But …
[50:38] – No objections! It's on me, of course.
[50:41] You're a woman who deserves to be treated.
[50:49] – Is everything okay?
[50:52] – My wallet …
[50:55] I forgot it in my hotel.
[50:57] – No problem, I'll take care of it.
[50:59] – Well this is … this is really embarrassing!
[51:03] I'll pay you back, of course.
[51:05] – Keep the change.
[51:06] – Thanks.
[51:08] – But when? You lost the bet.
[51:10] – Did you forget? Goodbye, Jacques!
[51:20] – Here you are!
[51:21] – Thanks.
[51:23] – Now.
[51:26] – I'll call you on this cellphone, Inge.
[51:37] – So: "bringing it all under one hat." (juggling many things)
[51:40] – Have you got such a big hat?
[51:42] – I work with perspective.
[51:44] "Pull someone across the table" (to rip off someone)
[51:47] "To have thick skin"
[51:49] and
[51:50] "In the valley of the blind, the one-eyed is the king."
[51:53] – Those are really good idioms.
[51:55] Have you got ideas for pictures?
[51:57] – I've got everything organized. I'll take the pictures today.
[51:59] – Really?
[52:00] You didn't even tell us.
[52:01] – I did! I … told you last week.
[52:05] I'm taking the pictures here.
[52:07] Are you with me?
[52:09] – I don't have the whole day, but a few hours … maybe.
[52:14] – Okay.
[52:16] Nico? Can you help me?
[52:18] – Of course I'll help you.
[52:24] – I'm meeting Dario.
[52:26] I promised him that I'd come.
[52:28] – Okay.
[52:29] No Problem. Then … then I'll call a few friends.
[52:34] I need models.
[52:36] Hi, Beatrice! Yeah, we're taking pictures today.
[52:42] Come on over!
[52:43] Do you want to come over? We're taking pictures today.
[52:47] Yes, it'll be fun.
[52:50] Okay, cool!
[52:51] Yeah, super! Around noon.
[52:54] Okay! See you then. Bye!
[52:59] – Now you have two subjects in one.
[53:01] – So, three, two, one and go!
[53:10] Let's go! Quick, quick!
[53:14] Now pull her across the table with all your might. Stay there like that!
[53:29] – Cheers!
[53:30] – Thanks.
[53:32] – Inge! You're back..
[53:34] – Hi!
[53:37] Oh, my table is free.
[53:40] – Your coat.
[53:41] – Yes.
[53:42] – Thanks.
[53:47] What would you like?
[53:49] – I don't want to eat meat today.
[53:52] I would …
[53:52] – I'll bring you the menu.
[53:54] Max! Menu!
[54:00] – Tell me, how was your short trip?
[54:03] – Well, okay.
[54:04] – What? Why just okay?
[54:07] – It was disorganized, the weather was awful
[54:10] and the rest of the group had one foot in the grave.
[54:12] – Oh, Inge …
[54:14] – I'm just saying. …
[54:15] I enjoyed it nonetheless.
[54:20] – Did you meet someone?
[54:22] I mean, the best way to meet people is when you travel.
[54:24] – We both met each other while traveling.
[54:26] – Yeah.
[54:27] But the others in the group were really not all that interesting.
[54:31] – Why weren't they interesting?
[54:34] – Because the pensioners' club only talked about illnesses.
[54:38] – Okay, that is really annoying.
[54:44] – Nice smart phone.
[54:46] I didn't know you had one of those.
[54:48] – It doesn't belong to me.
[54:50] It's Jacques'.
[54:54] – Inge?
[54:56] Who is Jacques?
[55:02] – Inge! Answer me!
[55:05] – Oh I don't know …
[55:07] – But you already said that Jacques is a nice, charming man.
[55:10] – Yes, that's all true.
[55:12] And we had a nice evening together.
[55:14] – And?
[55:16] – Jacques reminds me so much of Günther.
[55:19] – He reminds you of your husband?
[55:22] – Günther wasn't just my husband. He was my best friend, too.
[55:27] We were friends at first
[55:29] and then we fell in love.
[55:31] And we had a wonderful time together.
[55:34] – When did you marry?
[55:36] – Relatively late.
[55:38] We were engaged for a very long time.
[55:40] We got married in 1993.
[55:43] – 93?
[55:44] – I still wear his wedding ring. I've gotten used to it.
[55:50] – What's with Jacques?
[55:53] – I think he said that he's divorced. His wife left him.
[55:57] They fought a lot.
[56:01] – So you're both alone. Inge, life goes on.
[56:07] – Günther always used to say that, too.
[56:09] – Well, then!
[56:22] – Alright! So now, Lisa is officially part of the restaurant.
[56:26] – Yeah!
[56:26] – To Lisa!
[56:34] – That's quite a few new pictures.
[56:37] – Yeah, we've expanded the wall a bit.
[56:40] – Tell me, how long has the restaurant been here?
[56:43] – Oh, it must be around ten years now.
[56:47] – Yeah. Almost exactly ten years.
[56:52] – Oh wow! That means we'll soon be having our ten year anniversary!
[56:55] – That means we both nearly forgot our tenth anniversary!
[56:58] – Never get married. You'll forget your wedding anniversary.
[57:05] What would you like for your anniversary?
[57:07] – Oh man, I have no idea.
[57:08] – I know what I want: A party with guests and music.
[57:12] – Hmm. That sounds good.
[57:14] Hey,
[57:15] we forgot something here.
[57:17] A photo of our soccer hero.
[57:21] – That's okay …
[57:23] – Oh we don't mean you.
[57:24] – Oh …
[57:25] – Of course we meant you. Inge!
[57:28] Can you take a picture of the three of us?
[57:29] – Of course!
[57:32] – Come here in the middle!
[57:35] – Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[58:08] – I'd like to have a coffee. But to go please.
[58:11] It's too loud for me here.
[58:13] – I understand. I'll get your coffee ready right away.
[58:16] This city drives me crazy! Alright, what are you doing here?
[58:21] – I brought you flowers.
[58:23] – Because you have a guilty conscience?
[58:24] – Because I don't want to fight anymore.
[58:25] – Aha …
[58:31] – And? How's it going otherwise?
[58:34] – Well, with this noise, I won't get
[58:36] any more customers than I already have.
[58:39] It's as loud as a highway here.
[58:42] No, it's as loud as an airport!
[58:44] I think I'll move to the countryside.
[58:47] Rent is cheaper than here.
[58:49] – Do you really mean it?
[58:50] – I think it's much prettier in the country, because there's less traffic there.
[58:53] Besides, the air is better and I'm sure it's much more quiet.
[58:58] No construction, no traffic jams …
[59:00] – I prefer living in the city to life in the countryside.
[59:02] For me, it's important that I can easily go out at night and
[59:05] meet friends or go to the cinema.
[59:07] That's a definite advantage in the city.
[59:09] – In the countryside, you can go out at nightjust as easily
[59:11] as you can here in the city.
[59:12] Then you just go to your neighbors'.
[59:14] – I don't even know my neighbors.
[59:16] – Yeah, here in the city you don't but in the country everyone knows each other.
[59:19] – But in the country there are no cinemas and no theaters, no bars …
[59:26] – Yeah, yeah …
[59:32] 2.30 euros please.
[59:37] – Are you really looking for a new flat?
[59:39] – Of course not.
[59:40] But I'm interested in seeing what's on the market.
[59:42] We'll see what's out there.
[59:46] – This one is pretty.
[59:48] – Do you think so?
[59:50] – How much does the apartment cost?
[59:51] – 1200 euros rent, without utilities.
[59:54] With utilities, 1500 euros, for sure.
[59:58] – What? Where is it then?
[01:00:00] In a small suburb. Very quiet area, with farms nearby …
[01:00:04] – So it stinks.
[01:00:06] – It stinks in the city!
[01:00:08] This apartment is cute:
[01:00:10] Attic apartment, partly furnished, 60 square meters.
[01:00:14] – Price?
[01:00:15] – 550 euros total (including utitilities).
[01:00:17] – Do you have to pay a deposit?
[01:00:19] – Definitely. Two months basic rent.
[01:00:22] – That sounds good. Do you want to schedule a showing?
[01:00:24] – No, I already said that I'm just looking.
[01:00:27] – Sometimes you have to seize the opportunity.
[01:00:30] – Yeah. And sometimes, the opportunity also says:
[01:00:32] "I won't make you a website because you aren't important enough."
[01:00:36] – Family is important to me!
[01:00:38] – Oh really?
[01:00:40] – Yeah. And I can prove it to you.
[01:00:42] – How?
[01:00:43] – I have a job - for Nico.
[01:00:45] – A job?
[01:00:47] – Yeah! And I wanted to ask you if … if you … I mean, well …
[01:00:53] – … if I tell him?
[01:00:54] – Yeah.
[01:00:56] – No way.
[01:00:57] – He likes you. He doesn't listen to me.
[01:01:00] – But I think, that you have to try yourself.
[01:01:03] If it's a good job, then he'll listen to you, too.
[01:01:11] – What? No way!
[01:01:14] I'll find a job by myself. I don't need your help.
[01:01:24] – Where should we put the shelf?
[01:01:27] – We can put the shelf towards the back, on the floor.
[01:01:31] – Okay. Then we'll put the mattress next to the shelf.
[01:01:34] Where should we put the boxes? Can anything in there break easily?
[01:01:37] – No, not really. The boxes can also go towards the back.
[01:01:41] We'll just put them on the floor behind the shelf.
[01:01:44] – Okay. Then we'll put the small things along the side.
[01:01:52] – Hey, Selma!
[01:01:53] – Nico! What are you doing here?
[01:01:56] – I want to know why you canceled our meeting.
[01:01:58] – I didn't cancel our meeting. It was my mother.
[01:02:02] – Your mother?
[01:02:03] – Yes.
[01:02:04] Of course I wanted to meet you.
[01:02:05] And then she asked me where I was going.
[01:02:07] And I told her that I was in German class.
[01:02:10] She caught me lying.
[01:02:11] – What? But how?
[01:02:13] – Nico, I can't explain it to you now.
[01:02:15] I'm in a lot of trouble with my parents and can't meet with strangers.
[01:02:19] – But I'm not a stranger.
[01:02:20] – To my parents, you are. They can't see you here.
[01:02:23] – Selma?
[01:02:25] – No! My dad!
[01:02:26] – Selma?
[01:02:28] – Papa! Is everything okay?
[01:02:30] – Yes. The helper is very nice.
[01:02:33] – Papa, don't overdo it!
[01:02:35] You know you have to take it easy. You were just in the hospital.
[01:02:38] – Don't worry.
[01:02:39] Pardon me, are you helping as well?
[01:02:41] I didn't even see you.
[01:02:43] – This guy just walked by and asked if he can help.
[01:02:47] – Yes, I'd love to.
[01:02:50] – That's really very nice of you.
[01:02:51] – But you can't just help!
[01:02:53] – Why not?
[01:02:54] – Because you aren't insured. Something could happen to you.
[01:02:58] – It's not a problem. Nothing will happen to me.
[01:03:00] – People always think that.
[01:03:01] But moving is risky because you can easily hurt yourself.
[01:03:07] You head can get injured.
[01:03:10] A cupboard could fall on your foot.
[01:03:12] You can stumble on the stairs.
[01:03:14] You can cut yourself with glass.
[01:03:16] I've even seen a person get burned on a heater.
[01:03:19] – Selma!
[01:03:20] – Really!
[01:03:22] – Okay, then … I wish you good luck.
[01:03:25] – You've settled in well, Selma.
[01:03:38] – When I was young, you wouldn't have gotten far with that.
[01:03:42] –  What? With what?
[01:03:44] – Well this cellphone deal.
[01:03:47] – I'm glad that you called me.
[01:03:51] Yes. And that I got my phone back.
[01:03:55] – But 50 years ago?
[01:03:57] Back then, we were still young and we didn't have cellphones.
[01:04:01] – Yeah. It wasn't as easy back then. But people had phones then.
[01:04:08] Our neighbors had one. We could use it sometimes.
[01:04:15] But my father wasn't allowed to use it to call home in France.
[01:04:22] That was much too expensive.
[01:04:24] He always had to write letters to his family and friends.
[01:04:28] – That's true. Phone calls were much more expensive in those days.
[01:04:32] – A lot of things were different when we were young.
[01:04:35] – Yeah, we didn't have the internet. There weren't that many cars.
[01:04:40] And people had more time.
[01:04:44] Sometimes I think it's a shame that everything's so fast today.
[01:04:48] You're always available and can get everywhere very fast.
[01:04:55] – When I was a child, we took the train when we went on vacation.
[01:04:59] In those days, we didn't fly. Those were the days.
[01:05:03] You could go years sometimes without seeing each other.
[01:05:07] But then … meeting again was truly something special.
[01:05:11] – Yeah. Sometimes I wish I had the old days back.
[01:05:19] – Are 200 years enough?
[01:05:27] – This is so wonderful. What a great idea.
[01:05:31] – Unbelievable how much the city has changed.
[01:05:35] I was last here 40 years ago.
[01:05:37] Back then, the city center was much smaller than it is today.
[01:05:41] – Oh God. Was the new city hall already there?
[01:05:45] – Most definitely not. Many buildings weren't even renovated.
[01:05:50] – Mm.
[01:05:52] – The city is much prettier today.
[01:05:54] – The carriages don't drive past the ugly places.
[01:05:58] – That's true.
[01:06:02] But a lot has really changed.
[01:06:05] The shopping strip, for example: It was here the last time I was.
[01:06:09] But … it all looks completely different now.
[01:06:14] It used to be smaller than it is today.
[01:06:17] – The shops didn't all look the same before. I liked that better.
[01:06:22] – I know what you mean.
[01:06:27] It's so lovely! But I have to eventually get going home.
[01:06:33] – Of course. I'll take you home.
[01:06:35] – No need to!
[01:06:38] – As you like.
[01:06:40] Will we see each other again?
[01:06:42] – Well, you live in France.
[01:06:46] – But I'd like to open a restaurant in Germany.
[01:06:50] And why not do it here?
[01:06:53] I'll have a look around next week.
[01:06:56] – Alright.
[01:06:59] – Oh, pardon me!
[01:07:19] – Faster!
[01:07:22] – Wait!
[01:07:23] – Oh no. Nico!
[01:07:25] – You can do it.
[01:07:26] – No, I can't.
[01:07:32] Oh God!
[01:07:40] Thanks.
[01:07:41] – That was good. You're a …
[01:07:43] – … a natural!
[01:07:44] – Yeah.
[01:07:45] Last week you couldn't even ride a bike.
[01:07:47] And that was really good. Awesome!
[01:07:49] – Thanks …
[01:07:50] That was fun!
[01:07:53] – Selma, why …
[01:07:55] why don't your parents want us to see each other?
[01:07:58] – What?
[01:07:59] No, they …
[01:08:01] They don't want me to meet up with men alone.
[01:08:04] – You're an adult. You can do what you want!
[01:08:07] – As a woman in my culture, I can't simply meet up with someone.
[01:08:10] It's not permitted.
[01:08:11] – When my parents were younger, they weren't allowed to see each other.
[01:08:14] But today …
[01:08:14] – It's still the same for us today. My parents …
[01:08:17] – I don't get along with my parents either.
[01:08:19] – What do you mean 'either'?
[01:08:20] I love my parents.
[01:08:24] – But …?
[01:08:25] – In Syria, men still have different responsibilities than women
[01:08:29] in traditional families.
[01:08:31] Women, for example, have to look after the household,
[01:08:33] and men go to work.
[01:08:34] My family expects me to respect our traditions.
[01:08:38] – Well, yeah.
[01:08:42] Did you tell them the truth this time?
[01:08:45] Do your parents know where you are?
[01:08:49] – Come on! Again!
[01:09:00] – Slow down!
[01:09:01] – How? – Use the brake!
[01:09:02] – How? – There! Pull pull pull!
[01:09:07] – Sorry …
[01:09:08] – No problem.
[01:09:12] – And? What do you think?
[01:09:14] – Perfect. After one week …
[01:09:16] Do you always learn things so quickly?
[01:09:20] Did you used to do sports? I mean, back in Syria.
[01:09:24] – Well, I used to play a little bit of basketball with my girlfriends.
[01:09:27] – Basketball? Isn't that forbidden?
[01:09:30] – No. But it isn't very common.
[01:09:32] – And you didn't do sports otherwise?
[01:09:35] – I did. I danced for many years.
[01:09:37] – Danced? – Yeah.
[01:09:39] – Come on, show me a dance!
[01:09:41] – What? Here?
[01:09:42] – Yes, of course!
[01:09:43] – No way.
[01:09:45] It wouldn't be good without music anyway.
[01:09:53] What are you doing?
[01:10:05] – I'll make music.
[01:10:30] – I have to go.
[01:10:34] – Okay. … When will we practice again?
[01:10:39] – I'll be in touch.
[01:10:50] – Did it taste good?
[01:10:52] – Very good, thank you very much!
[01:10:53] – That's okay. It's on the house.
[01:10:55] – But I'm the evil brother. Have you forgotten?
[01:10:57] – But not my evil brother.
[01:10:59] – Thanks.
[01:11:00] – Were you able to speak with Nico?
[01:11:03] – More or less. We've had very little contact for years.
[01:11:07] – Why not?
[01:11:09] – It's a long story.
[01:11:11] – Hm.
[01:11:23] I've got time.
[01:11:28] – I'm the oldest and somehow have always been my parents' favorite son.
[01:11:33] Unlike Nico, I went to university after high school and completed
[01:11:36] my studies with very good grades.
[01:11:39] Then I went to Germany, to found my own company.
[01:11:42] – Wow.
[01:11:44] – Our parents were very proud,
[01:11:47] because they wanted a doctor, a lawyer, or an exective in the family.
[01:11:53] My father always said:
[01:11:55] "You have to study medicine, engineering or law. That's where the future is."
[01:12:00] – And Nico didn't want that.
[01:12:02] – Nico is not an academic.
[01:12:04] Nico is a hands-on person – professionally and personally.
[01:12:07] He always wanted to learn a trade.
[01:12:09] – I understand. But that's not the reason he isn't speaking to you.
[01:12:15] – No. The reason is that I never supported him.
[01:12:19] – And now you want to make up for it?
[01:12:22] – I have no idea …
[01:12:26] – You can't build trust from one day to the next.
[01:12:29] – I know. I can wait.
[01:12:37] – Your company, what does it do?
[01:12:40] – We develop apps. And essentially everything digital.
[01:12:43] – Really?
[01:12:44] – Yeah. Why?
[01:12:48] – I've had an idea for a long time …
[01:12:52] – Okay, what information belongs in your CV?
[01:12:56] – Name and address?
[01:12:57] – Very good. What else?
[01:12:59] – Where I learned?
[01:13:00] – Yes, exactly. Your education.
[01:13:02] Did you attend a Gymnasium or a Realschule in Germany?
[01:13:06] Or whatever the types of schools are called in your home country.
[01:13:09] Along with that, the highest level of education attained.
[01:13:11] Do you have an Abitur or another high school diploma?
[01:13:14] Write it down.
[01:13:15] – Are Praktikums {sic} important?
[01:13:18] – The plural of "Praktikum" is "Praktika." It's a Latin word.
[01:13:23] But yes, "Praktika" are also important.
[01:13:26] Professional experience also belongs in there. Have you done a traineeship?
[01:13:31] You can also include a semester abroad on your CV .
[01:13:34] That's always good.
[01:13:35] – Okay, knowledge of German.
[01:13:37] – Yes! Perfect. Very important!
[01:13:40] Please write down all of the languages you've studied under
[01:13:43] "Languages" on your CV.
[01:13:46] Computer skills are also important.
[01:13:49] You can also include your hobbies in your CV, but that's
[01:13:52] not really a requirement.
[01:13:54] What's important is that one can see what you can do well.
[01:13:59] Okay, then you can begin.
[01:14:02] By the end of the lesson, I'd like to see your CVs.
[01:14:06] And if you've got any questions, just let me know.
[01:14:19] "Hello, Lisa, my father and I need your help.
[01:14:23] Do you have time?"
[01:14:25] I'll call you back in a half hour.
[01:14:37] – Alright, you want to apply for a job.
[01:14:41] – That's right.
[01:14:43] – Where?
[01:14:44] – At a fast food restaurant.
[01:14:46] – Okay.
[01:14:47] – Dad's actually a doctor
[01:14:49] but he still has to pass a language
[01:14:51] exam in order to work in Germany.
[01:14:52] – Selma …
[01:14:53] – What then?
[01:14:55] – That doesn't matter to anyone.
[01:14:57] – Lisa wants to help you, Dad.
[01:15:00] – Okay, first you have to call them
[01:15:03] and then there's an interview in person. Right?
[01:15:06] – Yeah, right.
[01:15:08] – Good. First, you get a phone call. What would you say?
[01:15:14] – Hello,
[01:15:15] this is Ibrahim Al-Pascha.
[01:15:19] – Mm.
[01:15:20] – I'm calling because I'd like to apply for a job.
[01:15:27] – For which position?
[01:15:29] – Restaurant employee.
[01:15:31] – Okay. Ask for an appointment for an interview.
[01:15:36] – I'd like to know if I can have an appointment for an interview.
[01:15:43] – It's better to say: Could you tell
[01:15:46] me how I can get an appointment for a job interview?
[01:15:49] That sounds more polite.
[01:15:51] –  Okay. Should I … my quali…
[01:15:56] – … Tell them about your qualifications?
[01:15:58] Only if they ask for them.
[01:16:00] Otherwise that's something you discuss during the interview.
[01:16:04] – We still have to prepare for that.
[01:16:06] Do you happen to know anyone who knows how interviews are run?
[01:16:12] – Maybe I know a manager who often has to
[01:16:14] conduct job interviews.
[01:16:21] – Okay, Mr. Al-Pascha. I have fifty other applicants.
[01:16:25] Why should I hire you? What are your strengths?
[01:16:30] – I'm reliable. I'd be very happy to work for your company.
[01:16:35] – Are you a team player?
[01:16:38] – Sorry, could you repeat that, please?
[01:16:42] – Do you work well in a team?
[01:16:44] – Yes, in Syria, I always worked in a team.
[01:16:48] – What did you do there?
[01:16:51] – I'm a doctor.
[01:16:52] – A doctor? Then you are probably are a specialist, right?
[01:16:55] – I'm a urologist.
[01:16:56] – Aha.
[01:16:58] Do you have experience with shift work?
[01:17:00] – Of course.
[01:17:02] But I'd prefer to work in the afternoon and evening because I
[01:17:07] attend a language course in the mornings.
[01:17:11] – That's not a problem.
[01:17:12] Would you like to work full-time or part-time?
[01:17:15] – I'd like to work full-time.
[01:17:17] – Hm …
[01:17:24] I'll see you Monday at 2 p.m. at work.
[01:17:28] We'll discuss further details then.
[01:17:31] – Does that mean …?
[01:17:32] – You've got the job. At first, it will only be a three-month contract.
[01:17:36] Welcome to the team, Mr. Al-Pascha.
[01:17:40] – Thanks! – Well done! You'll be fine.
[01:17:50] – Do you like to go to the theater?
[01:17:53] – Actually, I do. But I rarely have time.
[01:17:55] – Oh …
[01:17:56] Excuse me, I was just repeating.
[01:17:58] – Ach so.
[01:18:02] The subject of the lesson is theater?
[01:18:04] – Arts and culture.
[01:18:06] It's about literature, the theater and painting,
[01:18:09] but it's also about …
[01:18:11] poems and novels.
[01:18:12] – Cool.
[01:18:13] – Well …
[01:18:16] – You're not interested in culture?
[01:18:18] – I really like to go to the cinema, but I find the theater boring.
[01:18:22] – What about music? Are you interested in music, too?
[01:18:25] – Yeah, totally!
[01:18:27] – Have you been to a festival yet?
[01:18:29] – No. But I really want to go to an open air festival next year.
[01:18:33] – Mm.
[01:18:36] The band canceled.
[01:18:38] – What, now?
[01:18:39] Our guests are coming in just a few hours.
[01:18:41] – Yeah, I know. But the singer is sick.
[01:18:44] – What band?
[01:18:45] – The restaurant is celebrating its tenth anniversary
[01:18:48] and we  hired a band.
[01:18:50] – And now we don't have a show?
[01:18:51] – We won't find a replacement …
[01:18:53] at such short notice.
[01:18:55] – Ah …
[01:18:57] – Oh!
[01:18:58] No! No, no way!
[01:18:59] – Nico?
[01:19:00] – [No.]
[01:19:01] – Come on.
[01:19:01] – [No.]
[01:19:03] – Yeah, okay, in two hours.
[01:19:05] I'll pick you up!
[01:19:07] I'm looking forward to it, too!
[01:19:08] Bye!
[01:19:10] This can't be real
[01:19:15] – Morning!
[01:19:16] – Good morning.
[01:19:17] Do you see that?
[01:19:19] I don't want the garbage can in front of my shop.
[01:19:22] How often do I have to say it?
[01:19:25] – I think that you should just relax and …
[01:19:29] – Relax?
[01:19:29] – Yeah. Besides, I wanted to see you because …
[01:19:32] – I don't have any time right now for discussions.
[01:19:34] I'm expecting visitors and need to plan a tour of the city.
[01:19:36] – Oh, maybe I can help you with that and give you a few tips.
[01:19:40] You should really visit the city's palace - a museum.
[01:19:43] The Dürer exhibition on at the moment is really wonderful.
[01:19:46] – Thanks, but I …
[01:19:46] – There's a new program at the little theater as well.
[01:19:50] I'm really curious about the interpretation of Faust.
[01:19:52] You know "Faust" by Goethe, right?
[01:19:53] – Yes, of course. But I have … - Here, look:
[01:19:55] A critic wrote in the newspaper - here:
[01:19:57] "Goethe's Faust excited theatergoers already on its first night."
[01:20:02] Yeah. The applause lasted long.
[01:20:04] "The actors returned to the stage for three curtain calls."
[01:20:06] – Yes, very nice. But …
[01:20:08] The paintings from the Middle Ages in the city's museum
[01:20:12] are also an insider tip.
[01:20:14] Very beautiful paintings!
[01:20:15] They're not in any city travel guide.
[01:20:16] But whatever you do, don't go to the modern art museum.
[01:20:20] It's not worth it.
[01:20:25] – And what did you think of the exhibition?
[01:20:27] – It was okay. The city's palace was impressive,
[01:20:29] but the exhibition was relatively dull.
[01:20:33] – You've barely been here four hours and it already feels like when
[01:20:35] we were in school together.
[01:20:36] – That's true!
[01:20:38] – How long are you staying?
[01:20:40] – Not long.
[01:20:41] I'm traveling around and thought I'd just visit as a quick hello.
[01:20:46] – It's good to see that you're doing better.
[01:20:50] – I really miss my father, Yara.
[01:20:53] But … he always wanted me to see the world and now … I'm doing it.
[01:21:00] Thanks for the past weeks.
[01:21:03] I'm so happy that you were there.
[01:21:09] What are we going to see now?
[01:21:12] – There's a little museum here that you'll surely like.
[01:21:15] A well-known composer from the city used to live there.
[01:21:17] He wrote a lot of pieces for violin and piano
[01:21:20] and he, uh, died a few years ago.
[01:21:23] I've never been there. Should we have a look together?
[01:21:25] – Yeah, okay.
[01:21:35] – Alright, there are a few events on tonight.
[01:21:39] There's German folk music at the Heimathaus …
[01:21:42] – No way!
[01:21:45] – Then here … rock music in a club.
[01:21:48] – That sounds better.
[01:21:50] – Yeah, but the singer's quite popular.
[01:21:52] I think the tickets are sold out.
[01:21:54] – Aren't there tickets at the door?
[01:21:57] – I don't think so …
[01:21:59] – Too bad. What else is there?
[01:22:02] – There's also a musical or we can go to the theater.
[01:22:07] There are surely still tickets at the box office.
[01:22:09] – Sounds good.
[01:22:17] – Would you  be interested in meeting my nephew, Nico?
[01:22:20] – Yeah. Why not?
[01:22:35] – Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry … – Lisa!
[01:22:44] – Dear guests,
[01:22:45] now here's a little concert from our good friends:
[01:22:50] Lisa, Sebastian and Nico!
[01:22:55] Enjoy!
[01:23:03] – Go your own way. Tell me where you come from and …
[01:23:08] – … where you're going. Where is your path?
[01:23:14] – Go your own way. Tell me where you
[01:23:17] come from and where you're going.
[01:23:22] What is your goal?
[01:23:55] – Nico, that was incredible!
[01:23:56] – Super, great, really!
[01:23:58] – Thanks!
[01:23:59] – Nico, this is Sarah.
[01:24:01] I was with Sarah in Zurich, when you were looking for me.
[01:24:03] – Oh, okay. It's a pleasure to meet you.
[01:24:06] – We want to throw little parties like this more often.
[01:24:09] Like next year, for Halloween.
[01:24:11] – Oh, then you're going to have to get a lot of pumpkins …
[01:24:13] – Yeah.
[01:24:13] – … because Halloween without pumpkins isn't Halloween, is it?
[01:24:16] I remember: In the fall, we used to cook
[01:24:18] lots of pumpkin dishes.
[01:24:20] Like, pumpkin soup, pumpkin cake, pumpkin jam,
[01:24:25] pumpkin muffins, pumpkin bread, pumpkin beer, pumpkin …
[01:24:27] – Yeah, we'll manage the pumpkins.
[01:24:30] Where did you celebrate Halloween this year?
[01:24:32] – Us? We didn't celebrate Halloween at all this year.
[01:24:36] – No.
[01:24:36] – What? Next year, you're celebrating here!
[01:24:38] – Yeah! – Apart from that, we want to celebrate
[01:24:40] St. Patrick’s Day and Valentine's Day.
[01:24:44] – I like Valentine's Day.
[01:24:45] – Who do you want to celebrate Valentine's Day with?
[01:24:48] – Who do I …? – Yeah.
[01:24:50] – We'll see.
[01:24:52] – Aha …
[01:24:54] – St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated in Ireland, and Halloween's from the USA.
[01:24:57] We have to celebrate a few German folk festivals, too.
[01:24:59] – You mean Carnival?
[01:25:00] Everyone who comes in a costume gets a free drink.
[01:25:05] – Or a wine festival. We could do that in the spring.
[01:25:08] For an entire week, we'll offer new wines from the region.
[01:25:11] – What about an Oktoberfest?
[01:25:12] – Yeah, but then you'll have to come in Lederhosen.
[01:25:15] Or put on a stylish Dirndl.
[01:25:17] – That's more like a costume for Halloween …
[01:25:19] – Yeah.
[01:25:22] – Alright, that's for you two beauties.
[01:25:26] – Thanks.
[01:25:27] – And … Sarah, Yara, Lisa, come over here!
[01:25:31] Nico! Nico!
[01:25:35] To ten years of Marek. To your health!
[01:25:38] – Cheers. To your health!
[01:25:40] – What?
[01:25:41] – Are you crazy?
[01:25:42] – Tell me, are you nuts?
[01:25:43] – You're pregnant! You're not supposed to drink anything!
[01:25:53] – Lisa, stay out of it! It's none of your business!
[01:25:55] – I absolutely will not stay out of it when you're being so irresponsible.
[01:25:58] – Oh! But when it comes to coming with me to my doctor's appointments,
[01:26:01] then you stay out of it. You said that you'd help me.
[01:26:04] – Nina, I have a job. I don't have time.
[01:26:06] – Can you imagine that other people who also have careers.
[01:26:09] Go to work and yet still have time. And some of them even have children.
[01:26:12] – Yeah, and some people are more careful when they have sex so that they
[01:26:15] don't have to spend so much time at their obstetrician's.
[01:26:19] I'm sorry, that was crappy of me!
[01:26:24] – Nina … Nina, are you …
[01:26:28] you … you pregnant?
[01:26:32] – Yes.
[01:26:35] – Yes, well, congratulations!
[01:26:38] – I can't have a child now.
[01:26:40] – Nina …
[01:26:42] – Do you know what? Dario left me!
[01:26:45] – What?
[01:26:45] – Yes! Ooh! Crazy how interested you are in my life.
[01:26:53] – What does pregnant mean?
[01:27:02] – That was the best night in a long time.
[01:27:04] – I agree.
[01:27:07] Do you remember the awesome parties back in the day?
[01:27:10] – Oh ja.
[01:27:11] Our neighbors really had to put up with a lot
[01:27:13] Luckily, they didn't get too worked up over the loud music.
[01:27:17] – The parties at Pudelclub, those were the greatest.
[01:27:21] We never went home before sunrise.
[01:27:24] – And we never went home alone after a good party.
[01:27:27] – Maybe you didn't. I always behaved myself
[01:27:31] – I miss the old days.
[01:27:33] – Yeah, I miss some of it but some of it I don't miss.
[01:27:37] – What do you mean?
[01:27:38] – Well, I'm happy.
[01:27:40] Why should I miss something else?
[01:27:43] – You can only be happy if there's something to miss.
[01:27:47] – Yeah, you were always the smarter one of us.
[01:27:50] – Ridiculous.
[01:28:07] I like your shop.
[01:28:10] – Me, too. – Take care.
[01:28:17] – Look at this here: Who gives whom what as a present?
[01:28:22] I'll give you an example: I'm giving you a pen as a present.
[01:28:27] – Okay, now me. I'm giving you… a dictionary as a present.
[01:28:33] – Many thanks. You did that well.
[01:28:35] Let's continue: What will you give your father as a gift?
[01:28:40] – Just a moment …
[01:28:42] Okay.
[01:28:43] "Der Vater" is a masculine noun.
[01:28:48] The personal pronoun is "er".
[01:28:51] Now I need the dative form of "er" - Exactly: "ihm".
[01:28:54] So: I'm giving him - ihm - a ticket for the theater.
[01:28:58] – Perfect!
[01:29:00] Go on. What are you giving your mother for her birthday?
[01:29:06] – I'm giving her a DVD.
[01:29:10] – Very good. And what are you giving Nico?
[01:29:19] – Good afternoon.
[01:29:21] – Hi, Mama. – Hi, Selma.
[01:29:28] – Alright, Selma, one last question: Who are you inviting to your birthday?
[01:29:36] – "Einladen" … Just a moment. With "einladen," you use accusative.
[01:29:42] So: I am inviting you - dich.
[01:29:44] – Very good. And many thanks.
[01:29:46] – I can now write invitations for my birthday.
[01:29:50] – When's your birthday?
[01:29:51] – In a few weeks.
[01:29:52] – Oh really! Have you got something planned?
[01:29:54] – I'd like to go ice skating.
[01:29:56] – Ice skating?
[01:29:57] – Yeah, I've never done that before. I'd like to try it.
[01:30:00] – Selma's father still has to say yes.
[01:30:03] – Oh really? How is he doing? Did he get the job?
[01:30:05] – Yeah. He's working now.
[01:30:07] – Oh, very nice.
[01:30:08] Yeah, we're finished for today. See you next time.
[01:30:15] You can be very proud of your daughter.
[01:30:17] – I know.
[01:30:28] – Yara?
[01:30:30] – Yeah?
[01:30:35] – Lisa told me that Selma's birthday is coming up.
[01:30:39] – Selma?
[01:30:40] – A friend of mine. I'd like to give her a gift.
[01:30:43] – Aha.
[01:30:44] – I'd like to give her a bicycle as a present.
[01:30:46] – What?
[01:30:47] You can't afford that.
[01:30:49] – It doesn't have to be a new bike.
[01:30:51] – You mean a used one?
[01:30:53] – Yeah, I'll give her a used bike as a gift.
[01:30:56] – That's still pretty expensive for a birthday present.
[01:30:59] – I'd like to surprise Selma.
[01:31:02] – That's really nice of you.
[01:31:04] But maybe you should spend a bit more time looking for a job.
[01:31:08] – You don't need to worry. I'll find something soon.
[01:31:11] – Sure.
[01:31:12] But until then, you'll have to buy your girlfriend an affordable gift.
[01:31:16] – Please, Aunt Yara. You can surely find a …
[01:31:20] used bicycle.
[01:31:22] I'll pay you back as soon as possible.
[01:31:26] – When's the birthday?
[01:31:28] – Soon. I'll find out today when!
[01:31:30] – Ok, fine.
[01:31:33] – Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!
[01:31:36] – Yeah. Yeah, fine. Now get to work!
[01:31:39] – But you don't even know him.
[01:31:41] Nico hates his brother.
[01:31:43] – Nico doesn't hate his brother.
[01:31:45] It's complicated but really, Pepe's alright.
[01:31:47] – Of course …
[01:31:49] – And he knows what he's doing. It's a chance for my idea.
[01:31:53] – Exactly. Your idea! I'm not impressed!
[01:31:57] – Boys, I need your help!
[01:32:00] – Inge, what's the matter?
[01:32:01] – Oh, I have a big problem.
[01:32:03] – Yeah, but first sit down …
[01:32:06] – Oh. I've got a date with Jacques.
[01:32:08] – Oh …
[01:32:09] – It's not funny! I invited him to my house.
[01:32:14] – Yeah, and?
[01:32:15] – I said that I'd cook.
[01:32:17] – Oh …
[01:32:19] – Jacques doesn't know just how badly I cook.
[01:32:22] He owns restaurants.
[01:32:24] I'm certain he won't want to see me again after the meal.
[01:32:27] – Oh, Inge. He's not that dumb.
[01:32:29] Besides, all you have to do is heat the food up. We'll prepare everything.
[01:32:38] – Roulade with red cabbage and dumplings?
[01:32:41] – You two are such dears!
[01:32:53] – Hm …
[01:32:56] Inge, this tastes fantastic. Reminds me of Easter.
[01:33:01] – Easter?
[01:33:03] – Yeah. In our family, we often ate roulade on Easter for lunch.
[01:33:07] – There was no roast rabbit?
[01:33:09] – Once. I was little back then and I thought we were eating the Easter bunny.
[01:33:16] I cried so hard that my parents
[01:33:17] never made rabbit again to this day.
[01:33:24] Easter was always a great holiday for me as a child.
[01:33:29] My parents
[01:33:31] hid colored eggs throughout our yard - sometimes chocolate, too,
[01:33:36] that I had to look for.
[01:33:37] Did you also have colored eggs for Easter?
[01:33:40] – Of course. But my favorite holiday was always Christmas.
[01:33:45] – Who brought the presents to your house? Santa Claus or the Christkind?
[01:33:48] – The Christkind.
[01:33:50] – Yes, to ours, too.
[01:33:51] – But the presents were not the most important thing.
[01:33:54] Together with my husband, Günther, I always decorated the Christmas tree.
[01:33:58] During Advent every year, we always ate Stollen fruitcake and lit
[01:34:01] the candles on the Advent wreath.
[01:34:03] – That sounds lovely.
[01:34:05] – It was lovely. But alone?
[01:34:08] Christmas is not a nice holiday when you're on your own.
[01:34:16] – Then let's celebrate together.
[01:34:20] Not here … Let's go away together!
[01:34:25] A Christmas adventure.
[01:34:28] – Do you really mean it?
[01:34:32] – Totally serious!
[01:34:34] – That would be lovely.
[01:34:55] – Hola, Nico!
[01:34:57] – Pepe!
[01:34:59] – How are you?
[01:35:02] – Okay …
[01:35:07] You said …
[01:35:10] – I have a job for you, that's right.
[01:35:12] But you just hung up.
[01:35:14] – Sorry about that. You called in a … stupid … situation .
[01:35:19] – Okay.
[01:35:20] – Is the job still available?
[01:35:25] – Yeah.
[01:35:28] – And …
[01:35:30] what kind of work is it?
[01:35:33] – It's an internship on a film set.
[01:35:36] – A film?
[01:35:37] – Yeah. A team is filming television series here soon,
[01:35:40] and you can work on it.
[01:35:42] – Really?
[01:35:43] – Yeah, really.
[01:35:44] The series is pretty funny.
[01:35:47] – And … what am I supposed to do?
[01:35:49] – Well, you help out where you can.
[01:35:52] You bring the team coffee. You make sure no one walks into the set.
[01:35:55] Stuff like that.
[01:35:57] – Brilliant!
[01:35:58] I love tv series!
[01:36:00] – Well.
[01:36:02] I like documentaries the best.
[01:36:05] – Could you …?
[01:36:08] – I had to tell the people I spoke with that I'd give them
[01:36:10] an answer today.
[01:36:11] Otherwise the offer is gone.
[01:36:14] So?
[01:36:16] – Okay!
[01:36:20] Thanks!
[01:36:22] – My pleasure.
[01:36:24] – Sounds good. That's how we'll do it. Many, many thanks! Yeah, you, too! Ciao.
[01:36:33] – And?
[01:36:37] – You're officially a part of the film industry as of next week.
[01:36:41] – Cool. And you said it's a series.
[01:36:45] Do you know more about it? What's it about?
[01:36:47] – It's a detective series, but not really serious.
[01:36:49] More like a detective comedy.
[01:36:50] – A detective comedy.
[01:36:52] – Yeah, a comedy. Una comedia.
[01:36:54] The series is about an inspector
[01:36:56] who has to work together with his rival.
[01:36:58] Most of the time, it's really funny. But also tragic sometimes.
[01:37:02] I actually like watching the series - when there are no documentaries on.
[01:37:06] – That sounds exciting.
[01:37:08] – I think the script is even based on a novel.
[01:37:12] So the series is a book adaptation.
[01:37:14] – Where does the series run?
[01:37:16] – On television. And on the internet, I think.
[01:37:19] – Good. Then I'll start watching the series soon.
[01:37:22] – Very good! Preparation is important.
[01:37:25] – Film industry …
[01:37:37] – Hi there!
[01:37:38] – Hey!
[01:37:40] – Shooting for the series is over.
[01:37:42] – Nico, Congratulations!
[01:37:45] – And what's this?
[01:37:47] – It's a clapperboard. I got it from my boss as a gift.
[01:37:50] The team signed the clapperboard
[01:37:51] Light technician, actor, recording engineer, sound, even the director.
[01:37:56] – That's really a cool going away gift.
[01:37:58] – When I was a driver for a film production, I never
[01:38:00] got anything like that.
[01:38:02] – Maybe you just weren't good enough and everyone was happy when
[01:38:05] you were gone again?
[01:38:07] – Thanks for washing up tonight, Max.
[01:38:09] – Ah …
[01:38:10] – I even got to act in one scene.
[01:38:13] – What, really?
[01:38:14] – Mm.
[01:38:15] It was just a small role, but it was a lot of fun and
[01:38:19] I'm really talented.
[01:38:21] – Nico, the star.
[01:38:24] – It was at the end of a police chase.
[01:38:26] The inspector is exhausted and runs into a pedestrian. I'm the pedestrian.
[01:38:30] – Have you got lines?
[01:38:31] – Mm, yup.
[01:38:34] Look out!
[01:38:36] Then I help the inspector to his feet, he continues running and
[01:38:39] at the end, catches the gangster thanks to me.
[01:38:44] What's that for?
[01:38:46] – I want an autograph before you become famous.
[01:39:01] – For the bicycle.
[01:39:02] – You got paid
[01:39:04] – Mm. And a very good reference letter for the internship.
[01:39:08] – Wow. Congratulations!
[01:39:11] Well done!
[01:39:12] – Thanks.
[01:39:16] I thought about it and I'd like to continue working in film.
[01:39:20] – Okay.
[01:39:20] – I could be an actor.
[01:39:22] There are pretty good acting schools here in Germany.
[01:39:24] – Wait a moment!
[01:39:29] Have you thought hard about it?
[01:39:32] – Well yeah, it …
[01:39:34] it's a lot of fun.
[01:39:35] – I have a friend who is an actor.
[01:39:38] He's even pretty famous
[01:39:40] and won a film prize for a role.
[01:39:43] – Wow, really?
[01:39:44] – Yeah. And in the past year, he hasn't had any new parts.
[01:39:49] – What?
[01:39:51] – Most actors earn so little money
[01:39:53] that they have to do lots of different jobs.
[01:39:57] I support you, Nico.
[01:39:59] If that's what you want to do, then …
[01:40:03] But is that what you want?
[01:40:14] – Selma!
[01:40:15] – Hi, Nico. What's the matter?
[01:40:18] I had to tell my parents again that I was at a language class.
[01:40:21] – I'm sorry.
[01:40:22] – They'd be very angry if they discovered where I really am.
[01:40:26] – I'm happy you came anyway.
[01:40:28] – I'm happy to see you, too.
[01:40:31] – Just a minute! Don't move!
[01:40:48] Happy birthday!
[01:40:51] – Oh my God!
[01:40:54] – I had a feeling you could use it.
[01:41:03] – I'm so happy!
[01:41:04] Such a beautiful bicycle!
[01:41:06] Is it really for me?
[01:41:08] – Mm.
[01:41:09] – The bicycle is great!
[01:41:12] And if my parents ask where I got it from?
[01:41:15] – If your parents ask where you got it from,
[01:41:17] then just say that it's from Lisa.
[01:41:20] – But if my parents thank her for the bike,
[01:41:23] then she'll wonder why.
[01:41:24] – Lisa already knows.
[01:41:26] – This is fantastic!
[01:41:28] And this afternoon, I get to go ice skating. It'll be so cool!
[01:41:31] – Your father's allowing it?
[01:41:35] – This is the best birthday in a long time!
[01:41:40] – I know that you're frustrated about the new appointment.
[01:41:42] Yes, but if you want something good,
[01:41:44] then sometimes it takes a bit longer.
[01:41:46] But it's worth the wait.
[01:41:49] You have to understand me as well.
[01:41:52] No.
[01:41:53] Okay, you don't have to. But please don't get so upset.
[01:41:57] We'll manage it!
[01:41:59] The new deadline's set.
[01:42:03] Thanks,
[01:42:04] Thank you very much!
[01:42:09] Oh, this is driving me nuts.
[01:42:12] Hello, Pepe González.
[01:42:15] Mr. Al-Pascha! Happy to hear from you.
[01:42:19] You've had the job for two weeks?
[01:42:22] Yes, that's fabulous! But I'm not surprised. You were well prepared.
[01:42:27] Of course, happy to. Anytime.
[01:42:34] Ah, Mr. Al-Pascha, that's funny,
[01:42:35] I see your daughter here with my brother in the park.
[01:42:38] Should I greet the two lovebirds for you?
[01:42:41] They'll certainly be surprised.
[01:42:44] Yes, of course. We'll speak later.
[01:42:47] That's alright. Talk to you soon again. All the best!
[01:42:52] – Is it the right height?
[01:42:53] – Yes, perfect!
[01:42:58] Just a second …
[01:43:04] Oh no!
[01:43:06] – What's the matter?
[01:43:10] – My father.
[01:43:11] He somehow found out that I'm not at a language class.
[01:43:14] He's totally angry!
[01:43:16] – What? But … how?
[01:43:17] – No idea, Nico. I have to go.
[01:43:19] – I don't think that he knows anything.
[01:43:21] – I do think so. I'm so sorry!
[01:43:27] – Hey, Nico.
[01:43:29] Where's Selma off to?
[01:43:32] I'm supposed to send her greetings from … Mr. Al-Pascha, her father.
[01:43:35] I was just on the phone with him.
[01:43:38] – You did what?
[01:43:39] – I spoke to Selma's father on the phone.
[01:43:41] – And told him that we're here.
[01:43:43] – Yes.
[01:43:45] – You have no idea what you've done! You are such an idiot!
[01:43:47] – Are you crazy?
[01:43:49] – Everything was fine.
[01:43:50] Then you come along and Selma's in a lot of trouble and it's your fault!
[01:43:53] – I don't think I'm guilty of anything.
[01:43:56] What's the problem?
[01:43:57] – Selma's parents think that she's at German lessons.
[01:44:00] She's not supposed to meet me.
[01:44:02] – Are you two … together?
[01:44:04] – No, we're just friends,
[01:44:05] but that's probably all over now.
[01:44:07] – Nico, that's really … I'm really sorry. I didn't know.
[01:44:14] – Just stay out of my life!
[01:44:26] – Come on! Send the ball over.
[01:44:29] Come on! Ah! But that made for an absolutely fantastic game today.
[01:44:33] – Müller is totally on the ball today.
[01:44:36] Yeah, come on, shoot! – Yes!
[01:44:38] – Ah …
[01:44:39] – A huge chance …
[01:44:41] – And back! Come on, run, boys, run!
[01:44:43] You're not going to become world champions like that!
[01:44:45] – Don't give up now!
[01:44:49] – Selma's father knows that she meets up with me.
[01:44:53] – Yeah, so what? She's an adult.
[01:44:55] Besides, you're just friends, right?
[01:44:58] – It's not as simple as that. Her parents are very strict.
[01:45:02] They get angry when she meets up with me.
[01:45:04] And if they're angry, then Selma doesn't get to go out.
[01:45:06] And if Selma doesn't go out, I don't get to see her.
[01:45:08] – Ah …
[01:45:09] – And if you don't see her, then … I get it.
[01:45:17] You lost today but you'll win again tomorrow, okay?
[01:45:23] – Ice skating is canceled. Everything else, too.
[01:45:26] Sorry, Nico.
[01:45:28] – Goal!
[01:45:30] – Offside, offside, offside!
[01:45:37] – Alright: what have you got planned?
[01:45:41] – It's actually quite simple. We'd like our restaurant
[01:45:43] to add a delivery service.
[01:45:45] – You've been wanting to for a while.
[01:45:46] – But now I've found someone to help me.
[01:45:49] – Pepe.
[01:45:52] Seriously?
[01:45:52] – It could be very profitable!
[01:45:54] – I understand. And what do I have to do with it?
[01:45:58] – I'd like the delivery service to be environmentally-friendly.
[01:46:01] – That's why we deliver with bicycles.
[01:46:03] It's environmentally-friendly and saves the gas costs.
[01:46:05] – It won't work when it snows but otherwise almost any time.
[01:46:08] – And you want to have my bikes.
[01:46:10] – Yes, but not just bicycles.
[01:46:12] The business should be worth your while.
[01:46:14] – How then?
[01:46:15] – Well, you would join the project as a business partner and
[01:46:18] then you get a part of the profit.
[01:46:20] – The risks will also be shared.
[01:46:24] – If the proposal is too risky for you
[01:46:26] for you, then we'll just rent the your bikes.
[01:46:28] And then we would place ads for your shop on flyers and
[01:46:31] on the app.
[01:46:34] – It's a good idea.
[01:46:36] But I can't take out a loan now.
[01:46:38] – That's probably not even necessary.
[01:46:40] – Why?
[01:46:41] – I know an investor who's interested.
[01:46:44] – An investor?
[01:46:46] How big is the delivery business supposed to be?
[01:46:49] – Well, as big as possible.
[01:46:55] – And in the end people just have to order.
[01:46:58] – To put it briefly: First your company develops an app for our offering.
[01:47:03] – Right. And we'll create a flyer and set up a website.
[01:47:06] But … yeah, the dishes would be ordered by customers via the app.
[01:47:09] – Okay. The people order using the app
[01:47:11] and then it will be delivered by Yara's bicycles.
[01:47:14] – That's right, in theory.
[01:47:16] – But what's unusual is:
[01:47:17] People can decide if they want to order a cooked meal
[01:47:19] or just the ingredients.
[01:47:21] – Do you really think that people will go for that?
[01:47:23] – Of course.
[01:47:24] Apart from that, the app will show which dishes there are for vegetarians, vegans
[01:47:28] or people who are lactose intolerant. People look for things like that.
[01:47:32] – I actually haven't seen that before.
[01:47:35] – Yes, that's great. But … what do we need an investor for?
[01:47:39] I mean the whole thing isn't that expensive.
[01:47:41] – If the idea works, other restaurants can join in.
[01:47:44] So we could deliver across the
[01:47:46] entire city and sometime maybe even the whole country.
[01:47:53] – I don't know …
[01:47:55] – Tarek, come on. This is our chance!
[01:47:59] – This investor, when can we meet him?
[01:48:02] – If you want to and have the time, right away.
[01:48:11] – Alright!
[01:48:14] – Are you finished?
[01:48:15] – Yup.
[01:48:16] I'm going to the print shop tomorrow to get a quote.
[01:48:18] – Perfect. Then after tomorrow you can clean up again.
[01:48:20] You can't count on Lisa this year anyway.
[01:48:22] – You still haven't made up with each other?
[01:48:24] – How should we?
[01:48:25] – Nico! Wonderful. Now we're all here.
[01:48:28] Then I can make a proposal.
[01:48:30] – I have to study German.
[01:48:33] – Cool, someone here is losing it.
[01:48:36] – What's your proposal, then?
[01:48:38] – Okay: It's obvious that no one has time for household chores.
[01:48:42] – No one?
[01:48:43] – Yeah, at least we all don't have the same amount of time.
[01:48:46] I think we should buy a robot to vacuum, to save us the work.
[01:48:50] – A robot vacuum cleaner?
[01:48:52] – Yes. It's insanely expensive, but we can split the cost in four.
[01:48:55] I think we should invest in it so that the mood here lightens up.
[01:48:58] – Okay, I think we have enough robots here in the apartment.
[01:49:02] – Man, Nina, that's enough!
[01:49:04] And this robot vacuum cleaner thing is a totally dumb idea.
[01:49:07] – You haven't even looked at it.
[01:49:12] Then make a better suggestion, young lady.
[01:49:15] – My proposal is that I clean the bathroom now and you, the kitchen.
[01:49:20] – Okay. Are we open to a discussion about a robot that mops?
[01:49:26] – Are you expecting someone?
[01:49:32] – The entire system is thoroughly planned.
[01:49:34] The orders have to be processed quickly and efficiently.
[01:49:36] We'll need to have a stable app and additional staff.
[01:49:39] – We might also need to expand the kitchen.
[01:49:41] – Right. The delivery service has to be perfect right from the start.
[01:49:44] Otherwise, no one will order twice.
[01:49:45] – I agree.
[01:49:47] – That … is good. Have you got any other questions?
[01:49:53] – For now, no.
[01:49:56] – And what do you think?
[01:49:59] – I have to think about it.
[01:50:00] I'll let you know in the next few days.
[01:50:06] – What? That's it?
[01:50:08] – Yes. Now we have to wait.
[01:50:11] – I don't trust it at all.
[01:50:13] – Tarek …
[01:50:14] – Yes, yes, we'll wait. Who wants a drink?
[01:50:18] – Yeah.
[01:50:31] – Selma! Pardon me, I …
[01:50:33] – Nico … Nico …
[01:50:38] – What are you doing here?
[01:50:39] Do your parents know that you're here? Selma …
[01:50:42] – I had to tell you in person.
[01:50:47] – What … what do you have to tell me in person?
[01:50:55] – We can't see each other anymore, Nico.
[01:51:01] I'm so sorry. I … like you.
[01:51:24] – Selma!
