-We didn't pay. -Where did all the money come from?

-We're friends. Friends invited us. -Fell from sky?

-Probably just pooled for drinks. -You know the person who runs it?

-Yes. That's Can. -Do you know Can?

-Can, Can, Can... No. -Because...

I heard Can's the birthday boy.

-It's Can's birthday, right. -So you know Can?

Not personally. I toasted with Can.

-For sure! -I swear, it's my birthday!

No discussion! I just want your information.

Okay, my name is Can. That's my store, my Späti.

Yo, It's Haj. I can't talk right now, sorry.

Shit, Haj, where are you? Call me back. It's important!

I'm really disappointed.

How can you do this to a convinced vegan?

The landlord is a veterinarian and my neighbors belong to PETA.

Push a horse without a head into a bicycle stand!

I'm talking fast to bridge the time I've lost through all this shit.

But I have everything together.

Yes, I just need one more week, please.

Or six days including Sunday.

Or two Saturdays and five...

He hung up. Russians have no sense of tradition.

A mausoleum for Lenin, but they'll bury my hopes for getting 100k.

Why aren't you answering? I tried to reach you.

It takes me ten minutes to put on my sweatpants.

My knee's still messed up.

The cops busted the Späti yesterday. I can't change your money there.

-Is this a prank? You see a camera? -No.

If they found anything, I'll freak out.

They didn't find anything. But I just can't do it anymore.

The Russians didn't give me 20 grand a week and I got this!

That could be your man. You got a week okay?

You need an electric shock? I got a Taser, too.

In case you want to star in a Taser movie. Now, buzz off.

Haj.

Haj. Haj...

Haj.

I'm so sorry, man. I really am.

I've been waiting for you all night. I feel like shit, man.

I... I don't know. I don't know...

I don't know why I said that. I...

I am so messed up.

I was all over the place yesterday. I...

Haj, you are my life. Really.

Please. I really didn't mean to.

Haj?

Haj?

I'm so sorry, man.

Something else happened yesterday.

Hey, Can.

Jazz told me everything. What are we going to do now?

Can, I know you're mad and I really shouldn't have hit him.

But what's going to happen to the store?

Can!

Say something, please.

I have nothing to say to you.

That's why I didn't tell you about your dad.

I knew you wouldn't talk to me.

But let's just talk about what we're going to do!

You can't do anything, you understand?

If I'm lucky, I'll have to pay a 10,000 fine.

How are you going to help me?

They might shut the store down. Please don't bullshit me, Haj.

What are you doing here?

I need to talk to you.

Come.

I've been thinking. Maybe...

Maybe there is a way to get you out of all this shit.

Okay. How?

You have to get out of Berlin.

-What? -You have to leave. Somewhere else.

How? Have you thought about my parents?

-Hatam... -You know what happens if I move out?

No matter where I go, they'd keep asking.

-The point is nothing happens to you! -Yeah, but it's not a movie.

Just imagine, I tell you, you have to go away. Will you do it?

What do you think, Yani?

Okay, so do you want to do it?

Show-off.

She's laughing.

-Merci. -De rien.

I really liked it with you at the party and in the car and stuff.

A little wild at the end, maybe.

Sometimes I like it a bit wilder.

-But yes, it was nice. -Yes.

-You know what? -What?

I think I'm falling in love with you.

You know what?

Nope.

I was thinking I could...

introduce you to my mom.

As your fourth BFF?

Nope. Then the girls would be pissed.

As my real girlfriend.

Really?

-Mm-hm. -Are you sure?

Sure.

Thanks.

-Let's do it this weekend. -The weekend doesn't work for me.

I'm in Barcelona with Nina. She gave it to me a long time ago.

We don't see each other that often.

That's why I can't postpone it.

Okay.

Hey. But I really want to do it.

I look forward to it. Let's just do it another day.

-Yes? -Don't worry.

Yes?

Yes, hello?

Hello. Jessica?

Yes. Who is this?

It's me.

Dad.

Are you still there?

How did you get my number?

Your mother gave it to me.

We started to talk again.

I saw the commercial.

It's really great!

I'm so proud of you! You've really got a career now! Wow!

I thought it'd be great to meet up.

Talk a bit.

So I wanted to check in to see when is good for you.

I don't know. I don't have much time right now.

Okay, sure.

It came pretty unexpectedly.

I'll do as you like. Should I just call again next week?

I'll call you when I have time, okay?

Sure, no problem.

-Okay, bye. -Bye.

-Hey. Hey. -Wow. Hey.

Nice to see you.

-Did I promise too much? -Hi.

-Nice dress. -Thanks.

Sit down. I don't want to reduce you to your body, but you look amazing.

Thank you.

Okay, I'll introduce you to everyone.

-On your right, Jette, best caster. -Hi.

-Her boyfriend, Wong. -H.

And Alexander and Klara, creative producers.

-Nice to meet you. -Same here.

-We saw your subway video. Great. -Yes!

-You've seen more, right? -Yes!

-The mop, too. Great. -Thanks.

Okay, we already ordered. I hope you're hungry.

-Yes! -Don't look at the price!

-Okay. -What's expensive? That's good!

-Okay. -Do you eat meat?

-Yes. -Here, Ontario Black Angus.

-Okay, yes. I'll have the steak. -Nice.

And some oysters.

We were eating them and still are. They are so delicious!

I've never had oysters before!

-What? Really? -What?

-Yes! -Your first time!

-Okay. How do they taste? -Exactly.

Like an 18-year-old.

-Hey! -Did I say it or thought it?

I meant like a piece of seawater. Sorry.

-Don't say that. -Sorry.

-He didn't mean that. -Yes.

-Don't think about this. -Sorry.

-I'm sorry. No. -Next time, just don't say it!

I am so sorry.

I'm going to eat it with a fork.

No, slurp it!

You have to taste the sea.

-I don't want to drink it. -No, please!

You kill them for the second, third time.

-Drink it. -Sorry.

Then you have the sea inside you and you're at the sea.

Come on. Drink it!

-Okay. -You can do it!

-Cheers. -Cheers!

Yeah, and in there!

Yes, very nice. Nice.

Was I right?

I just told you to stop doing that!

What's wrong with you?

Three, four oysters, your dick's talking!

-Sorry. -A drink.

You can order here.

One protein shot, sorry.

Hey, you can't do that!

Good evening. I'll just dump this, okay?

Two shots, peppermint!

We don't have any. Something else?

Two shots of anything. I don't care.

Here you go.

He shoots in his hallway, in his apartment.

I had a shoot the other day with an animal, with a chimpanzee.

The trainer says, "It's a wild animal.

Watch out, okay? Don't look him in the eye.

If there's anything, I say freeze and everybody needs to do it.

I'll take care of it but don't look at him."

Someone from props was joking around and waving at him. "Chimpanzee!"

All of a sudden, the chimpanzee starts running.

He sprints towards him, jumps on him,

grabs his head and then... Sorry, I must say it.

He fucks his head.

He fucks his mouth the whole time.

Nonstop, he gets nuts!

But then, the guy screams, "Freeze!"

Everybody's quiet. The guy still gets fucked...

And what does the trainer say?

Let him finish!

-Let him finish! -Crazy.

Ah! Fuck!

-Are you okay? -Dude, what's wrong with you?

I thought it's about the job.

-Yes, we just get to know each other. -Why are you grabbing my crotch?

No, I was just... It was a joke!

-You almost had my pussy! -It's not on your knee.

-I was just... -Delete my number!

-What's going on here? -Jazz?

Jazz? Wait a second!

It's fine. She's rehearsing for a part. It's method acting.

You said that to him?

For sure. I won't lose my honor.

I spent so much money on that disco ball, man.

For such a bastard, dude.

Fuck men. I swear, they're all the same.

I'm done!

I'm so done.

-Okay, wait! I got a bladder here. -What?

-The rest is awesome. -Yes, give it to me.

What about Can?

I don't know. I don't get him either.

Did you fuck?

-No, we didn't. -Why not?

I don't know.

I think he's different somehow.

Do you have a crush on him?

I don't know.

You should be a masseuse, I swear.

If we don't get the money for Can, I'll do anything, even feet.

Welcome to Tara's miracle kitchen. Today I'll show you how to easily...

Hello?

Yes, hello, this is Hajra.

Hajra?

Are you free tomorrow? I'd like to discuss something with you.

Yeah, sure, just come by.

I don't live with my parents.

Okay, where do you live?

Paula?

Paula?

Hey, girl. Good to see you!

Welcome.

-Thank you. -You look good.

Never seen an elevator go straight to an apartment.

-You like it? -Were the villa's stairs too hard?

It was so stressful with my parents. I couldn't live with them anymore.

But it belongs to my parents.

-Great. -But I pay rent.

-To your parents? -Yes.

-You pay rent to your parents? -Yes.

-They got enough money. -Let's go to the lounge area.

Smoothie?

I was shown a good new detox recipe

with spirulina, matcha, celery, apple.

A bit of parsley, but no broccoli. It's really good for digestion.

Hajra, I'm really sorry.

That was really uncool of me.

Sorry.

It's okay.

What did you want to talk about?

I need some cash, honestly.

-No. -Relax, not from you.

I need contacts to people with money, who are up for a trip.

-What kind of trip? -DMT.

-Crazy. -Have you got some people?

Then we are even about the watch.

Okay.

We need a place where we can do it.

It's quite nice here.

-What? Here? -Yeah, here.

-In my loft? -In your loft.

Then we're really even about that gun thing.

Yallah , and you can get as much DMT as you want for free.

Deal.

We have a plan for Para.

Tell her I said yesterday that I don't want to talk. Did she get it?

Okay. Tell him.

We know a rich girl from Grunewald.

-We met her in a club, drunk. -Jazz, get to the point.

Okay, she and her friends are overly rich, okay?

-They have nothing to do. -Jazz, and the plan is...

We'll sell DMT trips to her and her friends for...?

250 euros per person.

250 euros per person.

We did the math.

Four people admission 1,000 euros. Eight trips, 8,000 euros.

Ask her, what monkey pays 250 euros for ten minutes?

-Tell him rich kids. -Rich kids.

Tell her, I don't like screwing with people.

-And DMT is not a child's toy. -Okay.

We're not screwing with people.

-We're selling an experience. -We sell an experience.

You can stay on DTM. People can get psychoses.

I'm not going along with your kids' plan.

-Tell her! -I won't do this anymore!

Okay? Just talk.

Cüs, man. For real.

What if we just pretend?

What do you mean?

Well, if there is no DMT in it, but just some weed or something.

You mean placebo-like.

Yeah, placebo-like.

And Can plays a guru...

Screwing with people again?

Yeah, but nobody goes nuts!

Yes...

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

You have to understand, you're not in your right mind. Okay?

Don't identify with your thoughts.

Five elements in and out of Kalapa is inside of you.

Your consciousness is like a trick. It's trying to fool you.

Let go of the crowd.

Let go! Out, out!

Out with it! Out with it! Up there!

Up there! Up there! What is it? What is it?

-Up, up! -Up, up!

-You've got it, right? -Yes, I did.

-Give it to me. Hey, give it to me. -Hey! No!

-Hey. -Hey.

-Is Andrew at the front desk? -Mm-hm.

May I?

-Hi. -Hi.

-Alone here? -Mm-hm, also alone here.

Stop it.

Stop it.

What's wrong?

I can't do it like this.

You can't do what?

This whole thing with you, me and Nina.

I just can't. I've really tried.

You just get what you need and then you go back to Nina.

What? That's not true.

That's not true, Fanta, I...

With Nina, it's different from what we have.

We've known each other forever. We're just at the beginning.

It's so great right now.

Isn't it?

It's just not my thing and I'm not happy with it.

You're the woman I want to be with, but not like this.

What do you mean, not like this?

What does that mean?

If you want to be with me, then you have to choose.

That was never the deal.

Never.

Sorry?

Sorry?

-Yes? -I didn't mean to interrupt.

-I just have a very quick question. -Sure.

-I'm Jazz. -Hi, Maja.

I want to sign up for the admission exam

and I thought I'd just hand it over in person.

Okay.

I really want this.

And I wanted to ask how I can best prepare.

Thank you.

-It was a good plan, right? -You want credit?

-No, but I'm telling you. -You better take that joint.

-One thing still fucks me. -Oh, man, Can.

-I know what you're going to say. -What?

-Tell me! -Why didn't you just tell me?

-Because... -We see each other every day!

Then Jazz tells me. Why?

I wanted to tell you, but I didn't know how.

I didn't want to do it. I was all over the place, so drunk.

It just escalated unnecessarily.

I just don't know you like that.

Where does this aggression come from?

I'm working on it, Wallah.

My father is really not an easy guy.

He's often such a bastard, but that fucked him up.

I didn't recognize him. He was scared of going into his Späti.

-I wanted to apologize. -That's not the point.

-Yes! -No!

No, it's about transparency, Haj.

It's about being honest with the people you are with.

I don't understand why. I'm not aggressive. You aren't afraid of me?

-No. -People think I'm gay!

Because I talk about feelings.

I prefer letters than WhatsApp.

-You read letters? -We're in a relationship.

-You have to take care of it. -I thought we were bros.

It's with everyone.

Stop your hippie talk. I don't want any therapy session.

-Chill out. Take the joint. -You don't know who I am.

Smoke the joint. Take it easy.

You notice that yourself, don't you?

Do you still want all this?

Yes.

Cool.

Me too.

Cool.

Then let's get back.

Come on. What about you?

-Yes? -Ras?

Hey.

Got a minute?

What's up?

I've been thinking about what you said.

I'm going away.

But only if you come with me.

What do you mean?

Ras, if you marry me...

my family will accept that I move away with my wife.

I can get us an apartment in Frankfurt. It'll be very quick.

And that's no problem.

We can finally start over again.

-Hatam, how? I can't just... -Rasaq?

-Ras, look... -Sorry, I have to go.

Rasaq, come here, please!

Come, sit down, my dear.

This is Sheikh Abdel Karim.

We reached out to him because we're worried about you.

-Salam alaykum. Sit down. -Alaykum salam.

Your parents have told me about your behavior lately.

Is there anything on your mind?

No.

Your tongue is your horse.

If you shepherd it, it shepherds you. And if you cheat it, it cheats you.

Get used to always being honest and telling the truth,

even if it is to your disadvantage.

God will show you the way.

Your parents ultimately want the best for you.

Do you want to say something? Go ahead.

I have made a decision.

I'm taking Hatam back.

I'm going to marry him.

And we're going to start a new life somewhere else.

Is this a joke?

I don't get it, man!

When did this happen?

I don't know. It just happened.

Why didn't you say anything? I don't get it.

-I didn't know where it was going. -Huh?

Since when don't we talk? You say you're leaving. That's not nothing.

-You always wanted to do your thing. -Yeah, I do.

What about us? Your family? All the shit we've built up?

-Not your thing anymore? -You know I want to get married.

Not Hatam! You didn't want him in your life anymore!

I can't choose who I fall in love with!

I love him!

You think you'll be happy with him?

-Yes. -You always wanted a big wedding!

Now you run away and have a small wedding?

That's strange!

That's strange, man!

Yeah, I just wanted to let you know. If you don't get it, then...

It is what it is. I can't do anything.

I'm sorry, but I cannot take the apartment.

Why not?

I don't know. It's quite complicated right now.

I'm sorry. It means a lot that you stood up for me like this...

-Is it because of me? -No, not at all. I...

I just can't seem to get it all together and I...

It's better if we don't see each other anymore.

I'm sorry.

-Fanta, you got a minute? -What do you want?

Who are you to tell Zadie to make a decision? She's miserable.

-You know the rules. -These are your rules, not mine.

You still don't understand how this works?

I don't want to talk with you.

Zadie will never be monogamous.

Do you always manipulate your lovers to suit your needs?

How do you know she can't do otherwise?

You've known her for a few weeks. I've been with her for four years.

I've been nothing but fair and you're going behind my back,

poisoning my relationship. Who are you?

If I want to talk to anyone, then it'll be Zadie.

Do you think I'd watch you screw my girlfriend?

-That's all you can do. -Watch your mouth before I lose it.

Shut the fuck up and get out!

Yeah, that's it.

Fuck you!

-Hi. These, please. -Hey.

18.50 euros, please.

-Thanks. Have a nice day. -Bye.

-That's fake. Give me a new one. -What?

My colleague checked it with a pen. It's a fake one.

Did you get it from here?

I was here with my niece. Ask you colleague.

-That girl. Miss, come here. -Hey, Haj?

-Huh? Yes. -Did you give him that glued bill?

-Why? -He says it's fake.

Come here. Look.

What kind of shit did you give me? Look at the machine!

Dude, he's right...

-Let me see. -Don't fuck with me.

-Give me a new one. Come on. -Yes, okay.

-Here. -Check it, dude!

-Look at it! Use the blue light. -Yes, it's not a fake.

Not a fake, look. You see?

Calm down, dude.

No, no, no, they are all fake.

-Didn't you check them? -Yes, I always do!

I check them all!

All the 20s are fake as well.

-No. The tens as well! -But...

Dude, no, man!

Fuck!

Fuck.
