"I'll climb the rocks with you."

"Wait! I will get you."

Gita's favorite sport.

He follows her.

"Come over here. There is more room."

But the third rock poses a bit of a challenge.

"Come climb into the window, Toni. It's nice and airy."

"You naughty girl! One day I'll get you."

Gita's greatest pride is her very own little house.

"Paul, how many times per minute does a regular person's pulse beat?"

"Seventy-four!"

"Seventy-six! Paul, call the doctor."

"Am I very sick?"

"General physical weakness."

"Why don't you break a table with your bare hands!"

"Break the table!"

"Where there is a will, there is a way, young man."

"Exercising in the mountains... and getting married a bit!"

So Paul the Butler went to the mountains with his master

and took his very first step in the great outdoors.

"So... Do you have such high mountains in Berlin?"

"No. But if they were in Berlin, they'd be much higher."

End of Act 1 .

Act 2.

Morning in the mountains.

Paul and his master as true mountaineers.

GOOD DAY!

"Look, Paul, the Mountain of Destiny. We have to climb it!"

Gita's shower.

The north face of the Mountain of Destiny.

"Yodel-ay-hee-hoo!"

"Secure it well, Paul."

"Let's go! Come on."

In a cool valley...

"Please, miss, cut the rope."

Spring awakening.

"A girl! A real girl! And she saved my life!"

In high spirits, Gita climbed back onto her favorite rocks.

"Getting married, Paul,"

"Is your sister available?"

End of Act 2.

Act 3.

Courtship in the mountains.

"The little brat won't come down!"

"That won't work, sir. By the time I'm up there, the flowers will be dead."

"May I introduce myself, miss?"

"Just don't be shy' sir!"

"May I ask for your hand?"

"He wants to marry you, this city boy!"

"What's your name?"

MICHAEL TREUHERZ FROM BERLIN

"And I have a little house and a goat."

"I will have to think about it."

"Come look at my little house today,"

"Kids, we're going to have guests!"

Pippa is already in her winter outfit too.

"Does the young man still live here?"

GRAND SKI RACE OF THE SKI CLUB HINTERWALDEN

START: SUNDAY MORNING

WHERE: AVALANCHE WALL AT HAMMELBAUER'S

FIRST PRIZE: A SMALL GOAT

"Hello! Me and my goat will be the first prize!"

"You should take skiing lessons from me."

"A little more energy."

"You have to learn how to turn around,

otherwise you'll keep going till you fall of the edge of the earth."

"Those are the skis..."

"That's the brake."

"And you ski with one pole and two legs."

"That went well."

"And this is all there is to it."

"Get Seppl... get..."

"I don't believe in this new style with the two poles."

"So you ski like Andreas Hofer in 1800?"

"You need a brake. Trust me, you'll see."

And Paul thinks the new fashion without leaning on the pole may be better.

"A brake! A brake!"

"Now you forgot the brake, right?"

And Paul invented something.

"I figured it out!"

FOUR-WHEEL BRAKE

"And I have another plan."

"Made from iron! The wall has a greater chance of breaking..."

FOUR-WHEEL BRAKE

"I totally crimped those things."

"Well, you are pretty late."

"Is there still hope?"

"Yes, it's too late.

Only the winner of the big ski race will get me!"

"I will win first prize!"

"One schnapps please,"

"You don't participate in the ski race, do you?"

"Then you can spend the entire day of the race with me."

On the day of the race, Paul improves the chances of his master a bit more.

WATCH OUT! COUNTER SLOPE.

ONE-WAY STREET

Done! Now you'll sail over all obstacles like a balloon over a chicken coop.

End of Act 4.

Act 5.

High up in the mountain's lies Hammelbauer's cabin.

The skiers line up on the avalanche wall next to the cabin.

"Gentlemen, first we eat. Start time is 2:00 p.m. sharp."

"Let's go! Line up at the starting line."

"Now you have to go and wax this shameless snob's skis?"

Gita's skis.

"Hi, my friend. I'm racing too."

"Hello, Mr. Treuherz! Make an effort if you really want me."

"Go!"

"Come quickly to the finish line with me. We have to take a shortcut."

"Toni, hurry up!"

But Pippa can, of course, ski by herself.

"He will have to come by here. I'm going to help him a bit."

Paul has more of a predilection for cultural advances.

Pippa goes her own way.

"Come down here!"

End of Act 5.

Act 6.

On the wings of love...

...Michael Treuherz stumbles after the other skiers.

The skiers fly across mountains and valleys.

But Michael's skis, waxed with much love, run even faster.

Michael is already hard on their heels.

And Michael is in the lead. He doesn't even know how.

CAUTION! TURN AHEAD.

CAUTION! TURN AHEAD.

Michael has fallen behind again.

Fortunately for Michael, the Ski Club Hinterwalden crashes as well.

And Michael catches up big time.

WATCH OUT! COUNTER SLOPE.

So Michael was able to make a lot of headway.

"Listen up! Radio Berlin!"

Michael is in the lead, but a village lies ahead.

RESTAURANT MOONSHINE

"Go, Michael, the others are catching up!"

ONE-WAY STREET

End of Act 6.

Act 7.

"Stop, sir! For this next climb I have a brand new trick."

The last steep slope seems awfully steep to Michael.

"That's foul play!"

"Go, they're coming!"

The Ski Club Hinterwalden on the steep hill.

FINISH LINE

"Michael! Michael!"

Final sprint.

"You can go to Berlin and I will stay here forever."

"Fresh powder ahoy!"

Fresh powder ahoy!

THE END.
