[Police department]
Inspector: You will remain in custody for now…. Volker?
Volker: Please come with me!
Inspector with Sophie and her mum
Inspector: Your daughter may have helped us a lot with her statement regarding the Lohmann case!
[Chulos]
Timo: Man, today I really can’t come. Tomorrow, no problem, 100%!
Hotte: You’re going to see Luzi!
Timo: Yes, okay!
Hotte: Pft, see you!
Timo: You got it. Knock yourself out!
Timo walking through the door – and there is Sophie
Sophie: I’ve missed you so much, Timo!
[Intro]
[Chulos]
Timo: Sophie, where have you been all this time!?!
Sophie: That’s rather complicated, but I will tell you later, okay? Can I stay over at your place tonight?
Timo: Do you realize how worried I was about you? And not just me!
Sophie: Timo! Please!
Timo: Sophie, you…you…you just took off, without any word! Without calling, with no messages or anything! I mean...”I have another guy” would have been enough! But no, instead you just take off and go to London or something!
Sophie: I don’t have a new guy! And I was never in London!
Timo: Sure!
Sophie: I don’t have a new guy! Who said that?
Timo: Dammit, it’s not about who said that! The fact is that you just bailed on me, and I nearly died from fear! And now you just walk in here and want to stay over at my place? Psh…
Sophie: Because I can’t stay at my Mother’s…because I don’t want to stay there! I want to stay over at your place, Timo! I need you now! I love you!
Sophie is obviously upset, and desperate – and Timo just stares at her, both annoyed and amazed.
[Pestalozzi, hallway]
We see a very pissed off/annoyed Emma rounding the corner, closely followed by a worried/confused Jenny.
Jenny: Emma, now wait up!
Emma: Leave me alone! Why do you run after me all the time? Stop it!
Jenny: Emma, what was that saying supposed to mean? You want to be like all the others? You’re not like all the others, Emma! And that’s something good! You’re something special!
Oh yes! And how Jenny says this…and it touches Emma…
You just don’t dare to admit that to yourself! I mean, look at all these chicks... Caro, Lena, Yvonne…do you want to be like them? No! No I don’t think so! …there even Emma can’t take her eyes off….You’re not like them! And I’m not talking about Göttings two-class-system or whatever! I’m talking about you, Emma! You know that! In the beginning there will be some stupid comments….. I know that! That’s normal! Oh, normal, that’s the keyword for Emma to get nervous again….But Emma, eventually it will stop! We can see that Emma is getting VERY uncomfortable…. If we stick together then….then we’ll make it!
Emma: Ey…ey… really, I have no clue what you’re talking about, but I’m not like you! I don’t ever want to talk about this again! And the only thing I know… is that you should leave me alone!
The only thing she knows because she’s so confused is…run away! Emma takes off out the front doors of the Pestalozzi, leaving a very sad Jenny behind.
[Pestalozzi, hallway]
Julian comes out of the office area, only to run right into his favorite lady…
Julian: The Queen of Pestalozzi is back! Enchanting as always! Have you fully recovered?
Alexandra: It could be worse. And why are you in such a good mood? What has happened?
Julian: A lot! Among other things, we have started to separate the wheat from the chaff!
Alexandra: Obviously confused. The wheat from the chaff?!?
Julian: The common from the elite, slobs from talented! I gave an aptitude test! The students are, from now on, divided into A and B.
Alexandra: Wow! That was fast!
Julian: Yes, that’s me!
Inspector: Ah, Mrs. Lohmann! I’d like to talk to you. It’s about the death of your sister.
Alexandra: I’ve only just buried her!
Inspector: Oh I know! You have my sincerest condolences, but nevertheless I have to ask you some questions. There is new evidence. Jens Mirbach, the former boyfriend of your sister, has surfaced.
Alexandra: And the accomplice of Bea Vogel!
Inspector: This may be so. The two of them did meet.
Alexandra: They met!?!
Inspector: Unfortunately he has escaped, but the meeting itself, and the statement from one of your students, incriminate Mrs. Vogel even more.
Alexandra: The statement of a student?
Inspector: It looks as if we’ll have to keep Mrs. Vogel in custody until the trial. This obviously pleases Alexandra! But now back to Jens Mirbach, do you have a few minutes?
Alexandra: Of course! Gladly!
[At the Beschenko’s]
Luzi is waiting for Timo…looking at the clock, fiddling with the radio…and wait…what… is that a camera hooked up to a screen on her bedside table?!?! What is that!?!?
[Chulos]
Annnnnnnnnnnnnd……Timo is STILL at Chulos with Luzi.
Sophie: Timo, you’re the only one for me!
Timo: Why didn’t you ever contact me?
Sophie: Because…you kissed Luzi and I was pissed!
Timo: And then you disappear for half an eternity?
Sophie: Yes, I….I had to sort some stuff out and think about things. and now I realize that you still love me, despite the kiss with Luzi! That was a slip-up on New Year’s Eve, I know that now!
Timo, you still love me!
Timo: If you weren’t in London, and you have no new guy, then where the hell have you been all this time?
Sophie: I already told you…that’s really complicated!
Timo: And why can’t you sleep at your Mother’s?
Sophie: Timo, do you still love me? Why are you being so cold? Is there something with Luzi?
Timo: Sophie, where the hell have you been!?!
Sophie: In Australia!
Timo: In Australia!
Sophie: Yes!
Timo: And why did you make it such a secret?
Sophie: Because I found out some things there! Really bad things, actually!
Timo: Aha…and naturally you also can’t tell me about them! Sorry Sophie, but it doesn’t work that way!
And Timo walks away…
Sophie: Timo!!!!!
[Saal 1]
Alexandra: And Sophie Klein has testified against Bea Vogel?
Miriam is listening in the background.
Inspector: Yes!
Alexandra: But how did she know that Jens Mirbach was in Germany?
Inspector: She was apparently looking for him.
Alexandra: And why?
Inspector: Well, that’s one of the open questions we still need to answer. She…. she says she didn’t want to be taught by a murderer.
Alexandra: Understandable, who wants that!?!
You can tell that even Alexandra thinks something is off with all of this….
Inspector: Anyway, we have to be grateful for the tip!
Alexandra: Indeed!
Inspector: But back to Jens Mirbach. How well did you know him?
Alexandra: Not good enough, apparently!
Inspector: Ms. Klein says that Jens Mirbach is not an accomplice. That he only met with Ms. Vogel because she convinced him that he was responsible for the fight between Ms. Vogel and your sister, and therefore, for her death.
Alexandra: That’s something Bea does very well…putting others under pressure, manipulation.
Inspector: One moment. Why? Were there similar cases?
Alexandra: Many!
Miriam is getting more and more annoyed.
Inspector: Ah.
Alexandra: Did she tell you about Ben? Ben Bergmann?
This makes Miriam cringe…
Inspector: Ben? No? Not that I’m aware of.
Alexandra: That doesn’t surprise me.
Inspector: Who is this… Ben Bergmann?
Alexandra: A student of hers. She had an affair with him.
The look on Miriam’s face just says “OH SHIT!”
[Prison cell]
We see Bea has walked into a small room with a bed, the door slams shut behind her and is locked, and she’s carrying stripped prison PJs.
[Saal 1]
Emma and Jenny are working at Saal 1.
The bad vibes between them obviously displease our Emma, so she plucks up all her courage…
Emma: Hey! About earlier…. at school…..that was somehow…I didn’t mean to act annoyed with you…I’m sorry!
Jenny, who has ignored Emma until now, gives her a frosty glance!
Jenny: Let’s just not talk. You do your thing, I’ll do mine…we’ll just leave each other alone…
Ah poor Emma! She seems to struggle with accepting that…But who dares to clash with “Jenny from the Block”
[At the Beschenko’s]
The doorbell rings and Luzi opens the door, seemingly very nervous/excited…..Timo rushes in and goes straight to her bedroom. Luzi excitedly follows him and gives him a kiss.
Luzi: You went to Chulos?
Timo: How do you know that?
Luzi: Cause you told me. Timo seems confused. You wanted to buy condoms….!?
Timo searches for the condoms in his jacket…finds them and hands them over to Luzi
Luzi: Are they without, or…?
Timo: Without what?
Luzi: Without flavour.
Timo: Ah so, yes! Without!
Timo is obviously ‘not present’ and Luzi notices…
Luzi: Is everything alright?
Timo: Yes! Why?
Luzi: You’re so strange….
Timo: No, fiddlesticks! Everything….everything’s okay! Really!
Luzi: Really?
Timo: Yes!
Luzi: Puhhh…..
Luzi is obviously hurt, and turns away from him….Timo wrestles with what to do…. To tell Luzi or not…. Finally he makes up his mind…
Timo: Sophie is back!
We see Luzi’s expression in her mirror, and she’s obviously NOT ok with this news.
[Chulos]
A empty cocktail glass is slammed down on the bar….
Editors note: Wiat…..wait…. is this SEEED!?!? Do you all know SEEED?!?! If you don’t, you SHOULD…. Awesome, Awesome, Awesome German band from Berlin!!! Go stalk them on YouTube….nooooooooow! LoL…. and now, back to our regularly scheduled program….
Sophie: One for the road!
Sebastian: Now I’ll tell you a secret… In the last three there wasn’t even a dash of Prosecco, much less and hard liquor! If looks could kill, Sebastian would be DEAD….lol… So if you feel worse - it isn’t because of my cocktails!
Sophie: I don’t care about that! I just want to sit here!
Sebastian: You don’t have to drink to do that! You’ve already spent about 20 €
Sophie: Thank you for the info, but I’ll take another one anyway!
Hotte: Sophie! She looks SHOCKED that someone has run into her in Chulos…..how could she be shocked!??!?! It’s apparently the ONLY bar in Cologne!!! How cool is this! You’re alive! Oh, sorry! We thought about what could have happened to you, and there were all sorts of things that came out. From kidnapping and murder to alien-abduction…you were abducted by aliens?
Sophie: No, I was not abducted by aliens…..!
Hotte: Okay! Awkward silence, but Hotte knows how to fix that! Talking!!! We even had a séance to try to find you! Does the name Dr. Mops mean anything to you? Hahahahahaha….. oh Hotte, you’re never gonna let that go, are you?!?
Sophie: Dr. Mops?!?
Hahahahaa……..Sophie’s look just says “OH GOD, I did NOT miss this….”
[Saal 1]
Miriam: Bye!
Guests: Goodbye.
Miriam: Thank you, good bye!
Jenny: Miriam!
Miriam: Oh, I’ve got to go!
Jenny: But it’s important!
Miriam: Yes, for me too! The new cards are lying in the back, okay? Ciao Emma!
Jenny: Miriam! Jenny forces her to listen. One second! Would it be bad if you…if you had to search for a new temp employee?
Miriam: What!?! Why’s that? Do you need more money?
Jenny: No, nonsense! That’s not what’s going on… She risks a short glance at Emma Emma and I, we can’t cope with each other!
Miriam: Do you have stress?
Jenny: What do you mean, stress….
Miriam: You work together really well! And just this morning Mr. Müller told me how happy he is with your work!!
Another glance from Jenny to Emma
Jenny: Nevertheless! It’s simply not working! I quit! I’m sorry!
And off she goes, leaving behind a very confused-looking Miriam who suddenly remembers she too must leave, and off she goes as well….
[Chulos]
Sophie has been trapped at the bar by a yammering Hotte….
Hotte: Anyway it came out “Dr. Mops ist rot!” “Dr.Mops is red” I thought for a long time about what that could mean, and then I realized that it was an anagram, and actually meant “Sport ist Mord!” “Sports means murder!” And shortly thereafter, while digging up the volleyball court, we found a corpse! Crazy, isn’t it? Strange because we did the séance too actually find you! But the craziest thing of all: that it was the Lohmann’s sister that was buried there! He waves to Sebastian. And…well…they searched all that time to find her,,,, and now this! He finally places his order with Sebastian A Diesel, please! (Diesel is the name for a cocktail that is a mixture of coke and beer) And where were you!?!
Sophie looks at him….obviously VERY annoyed….but who wouldn’t be fed up with Hotte going on at full speed!?! Even without being in such an exceptional situation as Sophie is!
Sophie: That’s none of your damn business! I feel shitty! Which even our barkeeper realizes, and I can’t be bothered with being chattered at by you!
Hotte: Did you fight again? Sophie now is completely baffled. Well, Timo and you? More awkward silence. Does he know that you are back?
Sophie: Of course he knows that I am back!
Hotte: I understand!
Sophie: What do you understand?
Hotte: It’s because of ‘the thingy,’ right?
Sophie: ‘The thingy’!?!?!?
Hotte: Well, Luzi! Well, because they are together now!
Sophie: Together?
Hotte: Oh shit! I thought you knew!
Hotte looks guilty and Sophie sadly sips her drink.
[At the Vogel’s]
Lara and Piet are sitting at the table.
Lara: What!?! But Heisig’s lawyer just got her out! Why is she in there again!?!
Piet: Because someone testified against her! And as long as we can’t prove that this someone lied, she’ll remain in custody until the trial. Period.
Lara: But who would do something like that? Who benefits from Bea being in jail?
Piet: I don’t know that yet!
The door opens and Miriam walks in.
Miriam: Hey!
Lara: Hey!
Piet: Hey!
Miriam walks in and goes directly to Lara to give her a hug.
Miriam: Sweetie!
Piet is clueless, as always….
Piet: Hey…What are you doing here?
Miriam: I left a message on your voicemail!
Piet: Pulls his cell phone out to check… Oh!
Miriam: Lohmann was at Saal 1 today when I was working! With this policeman, this…this…
Piet: Hinze!
Miriam: Yes, exactly! And I didn’t like it at all.
Piet: That’s why you’re here?
Miriam: No! I’m here because I know who testified against Bea!
Lara: What!?!
Piet: Who!?!
Miriam: Sophie Klein…
Piet: Who is that?
Lara: She’s a student…. that’s in Bea’s AG….
Music starts and we see several things all going on at once:
Bea is behind bars….tossing and turning in bed, crying, while Michael is at home sitting on the sofa.
Sophie is still sitting in Chulos while Timo is with Luzi lying in her bed, they are both awake… Timo is staring off into space, while Luzi is staring at him. We end with Sophie still at the bar…. Chulos is empty and Sebastian is cleaning up.
[Chulos]
Sebastian: We’re closing now….
Sophie: Okay! She empties out her wallet on the counter. Is this enough?
Sebastian: It has to be!
Sophie: Thank you! And…maybe I could stay here for a little while….and lay down over there to sleep a little?
Sebastian: I have to tidy up anyway! He nods to the seating area and begins to refill the fruit bowl…..but Sophie doesn’t move. You know what I do when I’m not feeling well? Talk! So go ahead! I’m always ready…. Sophie remains silent. Wouldn’t you rather go home? Sophie shakes her head. But at home it’s more comfortable than in a bar!
Sophie: crying I can never go home again! And I also can’t go to Timo! And I also don’t have the money for a hotel: I couldn’t even pay for my cocktails!
Sebastian: Why can’t you go home?
Sophie: Because it’s just not possible! Because I had a huge fight with my mother!
Sebastian sighs heavily, obviously thinking ‘I’m going to regret this…’
Sebastian: I don’t like doing this, but…
Sophie: Please don’t throw me out!!
Sebastian: ….you can’t stay here overnight, but in my flat there is a free sofa….If you want to sleep there for a night….
Sophie: Really!?!
Sebastian: I’ll just quickly finish the billing, and then we can go.
Sophie: Thank you!
Sebastian walks off to finish up, and Sophie seems a little more at ease.
[Bergmann villa]
Jenny singing Lovefool FTW!!!! She’s dreaming about her first kiss with Emma…Just watch and listen!
[At Sebastian’s Apartment]
Sebastian is setting the table, just pouring the coffee when Sophie walks in.
Sophie: Morning!
Sebastian: Morning! Well, how was the sofa? Bad?
Sophie: No, not at all! It was absolutely comfortable!
Sebastian: Yeah? Super! Get some coffee! Fried eggs are coming up in a moment!
Michael enters the room, obviously still very sleep.
Michael: Morning! Have you seen my cell phone?
Sophie: Good morning Mr. Heisig….
Michael: What are you doing in our apartment…?
Sebastian: Well, she slept on our sofa! At Chulos it was…a bit late!
Michael: I understand.
Sophie: I’m sorry that I just ran away and didn’t ever contact anyone! You must have pretty worried!
Michael: Yes, no… it’s okay now. You…obviously have an explanation!
Michael has miraculously found his phone and begins listening to a voice mail….while talking to Sophie he’s dialed his mailbox and is now listening to the message…
“You have one new message:
Miriam: Hi Michael. I have just found out that Sophie Klein was the one that testified against Bea! Do you know anything about it? Please call me back as soon as you can! Ciao!
As soon as Michael hears Sophie’s name, he gives her a dirty look, thus letting her know that he KNOWS…
Sophie: I have to go now!
Sophie has grabbed her things and takes off out of the apartment.
Michael: You’re not going anywhere!
Michael starts to go after her, but is stopped by Sebastian…
Sebastian: Hey, hey! Hey! What’s going on?
Michael: It’s because of her that Bea is in jail!
Sebastian: What?!?
[At the Pestalozzi]
Sophie comes through the doors just as Timo is walking by….
Sophie: Timo, please don’t send me away again! I will tell you everything, but you mustn’t get mad! Everyone is angry, even Mr. Heisig!
Timo: What has happened! He grabs her and pulls her off to the side. What’s wrong?
Sophie embraces Timo…just as Luzi comes around the corner!
Timo: Luzi! I…We
Luzi: Man, Timo! You’re not letting her fool you once again, are you? Do you know what she has done? I mean, besides screwing you over and disappearing for a few weeks!?! She testified against Vogel! Because of her she’s back in jail again!
Timo: Who said such a thing?!
Luzi: Lara Vogel, and she should know it, right?!?
Timo: That’s not true, right?
Sohpies face = deer in headlights.
[At the Pestalozzi, schoolyard]
From afar we see Hotte and Emma standing near the books…
Hotte: Emma! Emma doesn’t hear him. Emma! She’s busy staring at Jenny….Emma! Hotte waves his hand in front of her face. Are you listening to me at all? No, Hotte! How could she listen while Jenny is around? Sophie’s back! I ran into her at Chulos!
Emma: And since when?
Ah, the speech center is back at work!
Hotte: Well, since yesterday! Crazy, right!?
Emma: Hmmh!
Well, it was only a short return of speech center operations since Jenny still stands nearby! Hotte finally notices that Emma’s been staring at something, so he turns to look and spots Jenny…
Hotte: She’s really a little bit snobby, isn’t she?
Emma: offended. You don’t even know her!
Hotte: Now he’s offended. Of course I know Jenny! We kissed...they both look at Jenny again and Hotte gets that dreamy look on his face.....and it was awesome!
Emma: annoyed Sure Hotte! And then she dumped you!
Hotte: That’s what I’m saying... a little bit snobby....
Emma: Maybe a little bit…different from the others… and that doesn’t necessarily have to be a bad thing….
Oh, how Emma glances up as she says this to Hotte…and then looks down! Yes Emma, I think that you don’t want Hotte to realize that… what?...Maybe that it’s much more for you than “a bit different” or “not bad”?
Annnnnnnnnnnd Jenny realizes that Emma has been staring at her…but continues to smile and talking with her ‘friends.’
[At the Pestalozzi]
Timo: You went to the police? Why?
Sophie: Because…Mrs. Vogel is a murderer.
Timo: Man, what makes you think that?!
Luzi: Timo…! He just looks at her and then she turns away, annoyed.... and starts to walk off...
Timo: Wait a minute...!
Luzi: As if I haven’t done that the entire time! Do you know how long I have waited…for you? Man, it’s time you finally decide!
Timo: That’s what I want to do, but…
Luzi: Who do you love? Either her, or me!
