(Previously on Hand aufs Herz)

 

[Bergmann villa]

Stefan: Caro, could you please get to the point? I don’t have the time for such games!

Caro: I’m pregnant!

Stefan: You can’t be serious!

Caro: Yes, I am. Worse luck.

Stefan: Why isn’t he here?

Caro: Who?

Stefan: Well, Ben of course!

Caro: Ben doesn’t know about it.

Stefan: Why not? He’s responsible for this problem!

Caro: Ben is not the father. You got me pregnant.

 

 

[Intro]

 

[Bergmann villa]

Caro: You've got  nothing to say?

Stefan: That was a mistake!  (A tad bit late to realize this!)

Caro: I agree! But we can hardly change it. What are we going to do now?

Stefan: Why “we”, Caro? The only thing I know at the moment is that you claim to be pregnant!

Caro: From you!

Stefan: How do you know exactly? You had several sexual partners at the time.

Caro: You and Ben!

Stefan: Are you sure?

Caro: Of course! What do you think I am? (Bad timing for that question,there,gal..)

Stefan: laughing

Caro: Me and Ben always used protection. Just this one time with you I didn’t. That way,you are surely the father. And that’s why you have to take on the responsibility!

 

 

[On the street]

 

Hotte: I can’t believe it!

Emma: Forget it! It’s too late!

Luzi: All for nothing! We have worked this hard! For nothing!

Emma: We would have put on such an awesome show! But somehow I  sensed it: Something will go wrong!

Luzi: Don’t mention your damn dream again! It won’t work! It won’t work! You spoke of the devil and the devil showed up! 

Emma: Me! Who forgot to fuel the bus up?

Timo: Well sorry, I messed it up!

Hotte: It doesn’t sound as if you are sorry about that!

Timo: Maybe in your life nothing else happens, okay! But me, I had a damn crisis! If we all had concentrated on the essentials, that means the festival, then everything would have  worked out just fine! But no, someone had to make a lot of fuss!

Luzi: So now it’s my fault again! Because I didn’t want to lie to Sophie any longer! 

Bea: That’s enough! You should have thought about that earlier! Now it’s too late! That’s not the last possibility to perform!Forget about it!

 

 

[Bergmann villa]

 

Stefan: I’m sorry that it has gotten this far! But I can’t see where I should take on responsibility! Make an appointment at the gynaecologist's and put an end to it! It’s not a big issue these days, you'll manage! That’s the point where the lyrics of this song come to my head… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ie0sz9b_-Uw

 

Caro: Okay. But I want you to cover the costs for the abortion! And maybe a bit more for me! I think 2000€ are fair!

Stefan: 2000€? No!

Caro: If you refuse…

Stefan: Then?

Caro: Then I'll go to Ben and tell him about what happened. What is he going to think about his father if he gets to know about all of this?

Stefan: I haven't  had any illusions about what my son thinks about me for a long time. But did you think one second about  what Ben is going to think about you if he gets  to know that you slept with his father? In his room? In his bed? (Holy heck, busy place that is! Maybe its the floral designs on the sheets??)And what are your classmates going to think about you? What about with your plans for the future? I doubt that you are going to be making a good figure on the volleyball field as a pregnant woman. I refuse to be blackmailed, Caro. And I’m sure that you will manage to come to grips with your problem very well on your own. - And Caro. I like you. And therefore I'll give you some good advice. Don’t mess with me! Hm?

 

Bergmann leaves while Caro pokes at her food, gutted.

 

[In front of Pestalozzi]

It's late and dark while STAG arrive at the school being back from the missed festival.

 

Ben: Oh, here. For those who are interested. Listen! reads from the newspaper   This year’s school festival was a big success once again!

Hotte: Great!

Ben: Ah…the STAG convinced with a superb performance at the preliminaries, but stayed away from the festival itself.

Michael: Thank you Mr. Bergmann. That was exactly what we wanted to hear right now!

Ben: Why? They only write positive things about the AG.

Timo: Fuck! It's only Sophie’s mailbox!

Ben: She will touch base yet. Shall we have a drink somewhere?

Timo: I don’t know.

Ben: She is going to give you hell early enough! So a bit relaxation won’t do any harm.

Timo: I’m in!

Bea: I suggest we all go home and digest what has happened today! Then we are going to meet tomorrow for rehearsals and discuss everything else.(Uhm,Bea...a student under your care is still MIA..ever seen Danish thrillers about young women disappearing at gas stations? Yes? Don't care?Yeah,thought so..)

Emma:  We had our chance and we messed it up! What is there to discuss? (Emma, it’s time for some positive thinking…help is approaching!)

Bea: At which festival we are going to enroll next and if we compete with the same songs or put the pressure even higher.

Hotte: Or drop it immediately.

Bea: We won’t do that. We are far too good for that! So see you tomorrow!

Bea walks away.

Bea:  Doesn’t seem like I found the right words. 

Michael: That’s really hard  after such an event. Especially if you’re that disappointed in yourself.

Bea: You can see it in my face?

Michael: You did your very best. Now it’s time to heed your own words.

Bea: I can’t until I know what’s the matter with Sophie.

Michael: Yes, I know.

(Oh, she does remember her..color me surprised..)

 

 

[Sophie's home]

 

Mrs. Klein: Why do you want to talk to Sophie? Did she cause trouble?

Bea: No, not at all!  

Mrs. Klein: Please!  offering a seat to Bea

Bea: No, thank you. I prefer to stand. I just wanted to ask if she came home alright?

Mrs. Klein: I thought my daughter was at this school band festival with you?(Who are her caretaker?!?!?) That’s what she told me at least.

Bea: Yes, that’s right.

Mrs. Klein: Aha. And why are you here and Sophie is not?

Bea: Mrs. Klein, there was a quarrel on the way to the festival. Between Sophie and some of her classmates.

Mrs. Klein: Yes. And?

Bea: Sophie didn’t come to the festival with us because of that and now I just want to assure that she arrived here safely.

Mrs. Klein: No, until now she didn't. When was the quarrel?

Bea: That’s some hours ago. But maybe she just wanted to be on her own.

Mrs. Klein trying to get Sophie on her phone, but there’s only the mailbox: “Hello here’s Sophie. Message after the peep. Peep.”

Mrs. Klein: Yes, it’s me, Sophie. If you hear that message, please call me immediately.

Bea: Mrs. Klein, I will go on trying to reach Sophie via her classmates. If she reports to you first it would be nice if you’d inform me immediately.

Mrs. Klein: Yes, yes, yes. Of course.

Bea: You can call me any time.

Mrs. Klein: Yes.

Bea: Okay.

Mrs. Klein: Okay. Please.

 

[In front of the Pestalozzi]

 

Emma: Everything occurs as I dreamed it! It’s frightening!

Hotte: Could you stop that?It seems that you’re happy that we were late only so that you’re right!

Emma: I’m not happy! Are you crazy? From whom did Sophie hear everything?

Hotte: I just told you to say nothing!

Emma: Yes, but in a volume she was bound to overhear!

Hotte: You wanted her to know!

Emma: I just wanted for Timo to tell her the truth. Or Luzi if you like! But not for you to trumpet it through the jungle like an elephant!

Hotte: That figures. How completely illogical and imprecise you are! I didn’t say it any louder than you did!

Emma: You mean as loud as now!

Hotte: If you didn’t have to make such a lot of fuss about truth and confidence, then everything would have been fine! Then Sophie and Timo would be together, Timo would have fuelled the truck and we would have been at the festival in time!

Emma: Yes, and we would have signed a contract and you would have vandalized a hotel suite with at least three groupies!

Hotte: And why not?

Emma: Phh!

Hotte: You know what: Bite me!

Emma: Right back at you!

 

Massive Attack: „Paradise Circus“

…Love is like a sin my love
For the ones that feel it the most
Look at her, with her eyes like a flame
She will love you like a fly will never love you...
Again.

 

Caro wanders the streets alone and lost, depressed and desperate and - Oh look pretty shoes! - Crash. She runs into a woman with her kid.

 

Caro: Hey! Can't you watch your step? - Stupid question! Obviously not, as I can see!

 

The baby keeps crying and she hobbles away.

 

Caro: My sympathies!

 

Phone shows a message.

Sophie: on the mailbox Hi Caro! You were right! Timo is an utter asshole. He made out with Luzi on New Year’s Eve. It was completely dumb of me not to believe you! Please call me, I would like to talk to you!


It's unfortunate that when we feel a storm
We can roll ourselves over when we're uncomfortable
Oh well, the devil makes us sin
But we like it when we're spinning in his grip...
Aha.


Caro calling Sophie

Sophies mailbox: “Hello here’s Sophie. Message after the peep. Peep.”

Caro: Hello Sophie! Here’s Caro! I just listened to my mailbox. Please call me again if you get my message. I need to talk to somebody. I need to talk to you.


Love is like a sin my love
For the one that feels it the most
Look at her, with a smile like a flame …


[Vogel’s appartement]

 

Lara: Mom?

reading a notice   If you get hungry, there’s Lasagna and salad in the refrigerator. Mum.

Piet: Hey!

Lara: Hey dad!

Piet: Wow did you swirl around here? I mean for tidying up? Respect!

Lara: No, that was mom?

Piet: She also cooked?

Lara: Mmh yes!

Piet: That’s nice!

Lara: Yes! The Salvation Army is also nice!

Piet: No savvy!

Lara: Mum only came with the Lasagna to keep spelling her version of the story out for me!

Piet: I still don’t understand what you mean?

Lara: Well all this shit with “That she’s always there for me” although she’s making out with this guy?

But I told her that we won’t let ourselves be corrupted. Mum left us and we get by well enough without her! That’s what I told her! And then I trashed my portion of the lasagna! That way she’ll be in the know!

Piet: You did what?

Lara: I threw my portion of the lasagna into the trash!

Piet: Ah, and what are you warming up there?

Lara: Well, she put the rest in the refrigerator!?

Piet: Okay!

Lara: I did just get hungry! But that doesn’t mean that I'm crawling! I’m still on your side! You have to believe me!

Piet: Hey Lara! You don’t have to be on any side!

Lara: But mum cheated on you!

Piet: Mum is your mother and she’s doing all of that because she loves you and because she wants you to be fine! And the meal… is just a nice gesture of her! And the way you're behaving is not okay! 

Lara: Okay, maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to trash the food! You think I ought to apologize?

Piet: Sounds good! Enjoy the meal!

 

 

 

[Chulos]

 

Pink    “Raise your glass”

 

Timo: Dude! Why was I that stupid and kissed Luzi!(Hahaha, Emma and you both,dude!)

Ben: Well! A very good question! Why did you?

Timo: Dude, no idea! I felt like it. Cause she was there. Search me!

Ben: You just wanted to make out No matter whom with? If Luzi wouldn't have been around,you would have taken Emma, Caro or Hotte?   (No chance with Emma! Reserved for something better!// And there you go about that convo later,where Hotte said that he and Timo don't just make out..it's Gaylozzi...)

Timo: No!

Ben: Just saying! You just said you wanted to make out with somebody or other!

Timo: Not with anybody! With Luzi!

Ben: And what about Sophie?

Timo: What should be with Sophie! You have heard it! She’s raging mad!

Ben: I didn't mean that!

Timo: What are you thinking then?

Ben: Sophie and you! You are together! Nevertheless you feel like making out with Luzi! So somehow the question arises which one of the two you want! Well, in the abstract!

Timo: You mean if one of the two wants to talk to me any more?

Ben: The classical “Lonesome Island” question: whom would you take with you?

Timo: Luzi! ...Well and Sophie! Dude, both, no idea!

Ben: I understand!

Timo: Really? Me? I don’t!

Ben: Well, seems you’re in love with two girls at the same time! I would say you have a problem my friend!

(How am I even supposed to comment that?Ben is just not Yoda..)

 

[Bea’s appartement]

 

Bea: at the phone 

Mrs. Klein told me that she’ll inform me immediately if Sophie reports to her! Maybe she’s with Caro or another friend.

Okay. Fine!Let's do it that way. You too, Michael. Till tomorrow!

someone is moaning

Miri! What are you doing here in the dark? Trouble with Piet?

(Damn, that scene was so full of potential..sigh..but Miriam was probably just looking for the noodle machine, to make some comfort pasta..)

Miriam: Lara. The same as ever! She’s angry about me and is trying to hurt me. She’s good at that!

Bea: She doesn’t mean it that way.

Miriam: Yes! She does! And I can’t even be mad at her. Cause I understand her.

But what about you? Why are you back already? How was the festival?

Bea: Oh, don’t ask! It was a desaster! But let’s talk about it some other time, okay?

Miriam: Okay!

 

 

A fine Frenzy   Almost lover” 

Your fingertips across my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind
Images
You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Clever trick


Sad and regretting their fight, Emma is walking home in the dark, alone, pushing her bike, while Hotte is still standing in front of the Pestalozzi looking at a picture of them on his phone.


Well, I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should have known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

 

(I just need a second to mention how much I love Emma and Hotte..BFFs!)


[Beschenko’s appartement]

 

Karin: And you’re sure that Timo didn’t mean it seriously? That the kiss didn’t mean anything?


I can not go to the ocean
I can not drive the streets at night
I can not wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine

Did I make it that
Easy to walk right in and out
Of my life?

 

Karin: You like him very much, right? Did you tell him once? 

 

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?

 

Karin: But it will work out all right! Surely!


So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should have known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

(siiiiigh)


[Vogel’s appartement]

 

Sophies mailbox: “Hello here’s Sophie. Message after the peep. Peep.”

Bea: Just the mailbox,again! Nothing from Sophie! 

Miriam: She'll definitely come to class.

Bea: I hope so!

Lara: Morning… Mum.

Miriam: Morning Lara.

Bea: Morning. Do you want to have breakfast with us?

Lara: No, I have to go now. Mum?

Miriam: Yes?

Lara: About yesterday…the lasagna was really delicious!

Miriam: Thank you.

Lara: I’ve got to go now. almost leaving , then turning back

I’m really sorry about yesterday! That was a total fail.

 

 

[Auditorium]

 

Bea: Good morning. 

Students: Good morning. 

Hotte: Well, if there’s anything good to it, it will be seen! 

Bea: Yes, I think so! You can believe me I would prefer to delete yesterday from the calendar! But such things happen! What matters most is to be keeping one’s chin up!

Emma: Great! First we have to let ourselves be insulted about that we’re only singing marching songs and stuff like that. And when we finally have the chance to show what we can do…(Well,Mrs.Jackson made quite the art out of marching songs..nothing wrong there..)

Hotte: ...we have a breakdown halfway. We are the joke of the school!

Bea: But  we therefore have to show what we can do more than ever! Whining doesn’t help us any either!    Not to say,looking to the future: “Typically German!”

And that’s why I propose to begin with the rehearsal as soon as we are complete.

Timo: Ehm, I don’t think anybody else is coming!

Luzi: Sophie? I mean…did you hear anything? Or somebody else? I think we have to apologize to her!

Emma: You’re right! We all have a reason to apologize to her!

Luzi: Well, I do anyway!

Caro comes rushing in

Caro: What have you done with Sophie?!

Bea: Caro! Please!

Caro: Not ‘Please’! You of all people should be absolutely quiet! Great teacher! Watching how your idiots put down Sophie so that she’s running away!

Bea: What’s that supposed to mean?

Caro: That means that she didn’t answer her mobile! That she wasn’t at home last night! That means that since yesterday she vanished without a trace! And you are to blame for it!

(Sorry, guys, but WORD,Caro!)
