Oh God...

Oh no.

Oh God!

Never again.

Oh God!

The poor things.

- Just wait a moment. - Are you OK?

Just a moment.

- Ms. Bode, I presume? - Yes.

Pleased to meet you. Adrian Vilfort.

- And Mr. Bode? - Yes.

What a beautiful day.

Yes, beautiful.

Come in.

Thank you.

If you are interested in the specific numbers,

take a look at this.

We work with the latest research methods

and we have by far the highest success rates.

Julia?

And I don't just mean nationally, but across Europe.

Our methodology promises a 68% probability on the first attempt.

The third bar here?

- Yes. - Exactly.

But we're quite difficult patients.

Medically speaking too.

I've had a quick look at your records and...

I don't think we'll need more than one attempt.

Wow.

I can't force you to do it, but we know what we're doing here.

Well, it's up to you if you...

That's an axolotl.

A Mexican salamander.

It's a very easy pet to care for, if you're interested.

- What do they eat? - No, Georg.

If I can live without a child, then I can certainly live without a pet.

Renata, I'll be about 45 minutes late.

Could you please go through the third movement again?

- Thanks. - Ah yes. That's a nice vein.

- Sorry. - No problem.

Extend your arm. Yes.

Make a fist, that's right.

It doesn't want to...

I'll be OK again this afternoon, right?

There usually aren't any problems at all with Propofol.

As long as I wake up at some point.

No one's died on our watch yet.

OK, a little pinch.

Open your fist, please.

Thank you.

Hello, Ms. Bode.

Hello.

- Are you alone? - Yes. My husband will pick me up later.

Make yourself comfortable.

Shall we?

- Congratulations, that was great. - Thank you.

- Look who's here. - Hello.

- Maestra. - Oh, what a finale!

Wonderful!

- Thank you. - Congratulations.

Beautiful.

Doctor Vilfort!

Thank you. It was a very special experience.

It was deeply inspiring.

It really was a great evening.

Really. You rarely experience that.

- I think there was only one slip-up. - Come on.

- I didn't notice it at all. Not at all. - Me neither.

May I give you a hug?

Yes.

- OK. - Me too?

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Cheers. To your concert.

- And to the child. - To the child.

Are you OK?

I'm hungry again.

Should we cook something?

We could have eaten there.

- That's what I said. - Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Have a nice evening. - Thank you, you too.

What's up?

Oh, yes.

Breathe through the contraction, as we discussed. Exactly.

- Take a deep breath. - Exhale.

Good.

Inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth.

Breathe with me.

- Breathe evenly. - Keep calm.

You're doing well. It'll be over soon.

- Great, keep breathing. - Again.

Come on. Keep breathing evenly.

I think she's going to be sick.

Can you please bring us a basin quickly!

Here, yeah. Come on, in here!

Super!

- It's OK. - It's OK.

Everything's fine.

Everything's fine. And keep breathing evenly.

I'll take a quick look at your cervix.

Yes, it's already wide open and I can feel the hair.

- Lots of hair. - Get the anesthesiologist, please.

Everything's fine. Stay calm.

- It's OK. Keep breathing. Keep breathing. - You're doing fine.

Breathe through the contraction. Breathe through the contraction.

You're doing well. Very well. We have to get her up.

- Sit up. - Sit up. That's right.

Up.

Very good. You're getting an epidural now.

- What? - It'll be over in a flash.

- A C-section? - No, not a C-section.

- No, just an injection. - It's all OK.

You have to bend forward a bit.

Yes, try.

Bend forward, your chin on your chest.

It'll be a bit cold. Don't be alarmed.

- The anesthetist is already here. Good. - Yes. OK.

- It'll be over in a moment. - Now, here comes the injection.

A pinch, don't be frightened.

- And it's done. - Done! Very good.

It's already done.

It's OK. It's OK.

Then we're done.

Wait, just a second.

OK. Now.

- Now. - Now. Come on.

Nice and slow. Carefully.

- Please give her a little oxygen. - Yes.

Very good.

That's much better, right?

OK.

Here's some oxygen.

Relax! It's just oxygen.

Take it easy. It's good for you. It's good for you.

Breathe evenly. Look at me, Julia.

Breathe evenly. Stay with me. Stay with me. Everything's OK.

Breathe evenly.

Very slowly. Yes.

We'll use the vacuum cup. Please call the nurses!

Calm down. You have to stay with me.

Julia, stay with me now.

Look at me. We'll do this together, it's OK.

Stay calm, my colleagues will be here to help in a moment.

Can you please support her from above.

- Please stand on the other side. - You've almost made it.

Very calm.

When I say push, push. OK?

Keep breathing evenly. It's all right.

It's all right. Breathe.

- She's pushing from above. - Here's the vacuum cup.

And we're helping below.

Could you lift the legs? Good. Under the knee.

- Right. - Exactly.

And, with your breath...

- Right. - That's good.

Breathe in and when I say push, then push.

- Push. - And push! Push, Julia. Push!

Push! Push! Push! Push! Very good! Push!

Push, Julia! Harder!

- Push. - Again, again.

Very good. And breathe in.

- And push! Push! Push! Push! - Again.

A little more. A little more.

Once more. Very, very good!

You're doing very well!

- Very well done! - Great.

What's the time?

- 8:37 p.m. - Hey, little guy.

- Hello. - Half past eight.

- Hello. - Hello.

We have to go out.

What's going on?

I don't know.

I'll go and ask.

Mr. Bode.

Everything is fine.

Please go back to your wife.

We would just like to know what's going on.

Everything is fine.

Where is Dr. Vilfort?

The doctor will come to see you later.

The important thing is that you recover now.

My wife needs to use the restroom.

How do we do that?

You can't get up now. Just do it on the table.

What?

It's OK, that's part of it.

So.

- How are you doing? - How are you?

Where's the baby?

There was an oxygen deficiency

because the umbilical cord was around your child's neck.

The child is now in the General Hospital's neonatal unit.

They have the best doctors for such things.

The child will stay there for examination

and that is completely normal with oxygen deprivation.

Perfectly normal.

- Then we'll go there now. - No, that doesn't make sense.

The child won't notice if someone is there or not.

The child has been sedated,

and you, Ms. Bode, have to recover after the birth.

- OK, then I could go. - And you should stay with your wife.

- We'll do it like that. - OK.

We'll take this step by step now.

Step by step.

Julia.

You have to be very strong now.

For you and for your child.

You can send him happy thoughts.

It works.

You have a child now.

Here. Drink this. It will help you sleep.

Your room is being prepared.

Someone will come for you as soon as it's ready.

Drink it.

Hey.

There's the doctor.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

It's OK.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Ms. Bode, Mr. Bode.

Good morning.

Good morning.

We have good news.

Congratulations.

Now he's finally here.

Look.

- Everything's fine. - Look.

Look.

You can take him.

The values are all completely normal and he's doing really well.

- Like this? - Yes, be very gentle with the head.

- Exactly. - Oh, my.

Yes.

He's already had something to drink and has a fresh diaper on.

He's 18.5 inches and weighs 6.8 pounds.

Unfortunately, I have to go now,

but you are in the best of hands with Gerlinde.

Congratulations.

Hey, little guy.

It hardly has any hair.

He has a bit of hair.

He's so small.

18 inches is small, but it's perfectly normal.

Look.

Yes, look. Look who's here.

Look, it's Mommy.

What's the matter?

Will you take him?

Come here. Yes.

Sit down again.

- Yes. - Sit down for a moment.

Take a deep breath and lie down again. Come on.

So, everything is fine.

Your heart is healthy.

You probably had a panic attack.

We will do a few more tests to try to sort that out.

OK.

Your parents again.

I'll take these off.

Could you maybe answer that?

Tell them everything's OK.

And what about these?

I'll be right back.

OK.

Hello.

Yeah, it's me, right.

Yes, she's fine.

She just needs to recover a bit now.

Yes, totally fine.

Hey.

Thank you. Thanks.

Look here.

- I'll send it to them. - I still have these things here.

Doesn't matter. You can't see it.

We have a baby now, Julia.

It doesn't matter.

It's always a bit difficult at the beginning,

but it'll be fine.

Your mom is just a bit stressed.

We have enough formula.

It's just as good as breast milk now.

You stay with them, I'll go.

OK.

Hey, you.

You don't have to breastfeed if you don't want to.

Would you like to sit more comfortably?

Breastfeeding has a lot to do with your own relaxation.

Yeah?

I think it would be good to use this pillow.

Exactly, and put it under here.

And, yeah...

Now the child's neck should be turned towards the chest.

Right.

and the neck and spine should be straight

and just breathe deeply with your chest.

- Me? - Exactly, you.

And...

let your shoulders relax.

Exactly.

- Great. - OK.

Yes, come here.

Yes, that's good.

Yeah?

So...

It worked.

I'll leave you the bottle anyway.

Just in case.

Really...

quite excellent.

So well behaved.

Very sweet child.

I'm impressed with how well he's doing.

We've got a fighter here.

OK.

Here you have your, your...

We haven't decided on a name yet.

- Here, come on. - So, here.

Bring the little guy here whenever you want.

- Our door is always open for you. - Thank you.

Yes, it's over, it's already over.

And everyone... Look, everyone's leaving.

Yes.

Here we are.

It's so quiet.

Is it breathing?

Why are you so worried all of a sudden?

Of course he's breathing.

But it's so quiet.

He's just sleeping.

We should too. Who knows when we'll have another chance.

- Hello! - Hello!

- Hello, Anna. - Hello, Julia.

- Hello, Manuel. - Hi.

Oh my God, that's so sweet!

Oh, God! He looks just like you.

Yeah? You think so?

Do you have a name?

- Would you like to take off your coats? - Yes, sure.

- Can I give you this? - Thank you. How sweet.

You can just put them on the chair.

Thank you, Darling.

Can I have him for a moment? Yeah?

Come here to me.

We'll go see Grandma.

My mother wanted to see him.

- Ah, your mother's here. - Yes, she's here.

- No! - I had to send it all back.

How's it going with the orchestra?

It's a bit difficult sometimes, but...

Don't hide your light under a bushel. She was great.

- Perfectly prepared, confident, friendly. - Really great.

It's your first grandchild, isn't it?

Yeah?

- Can you take a picture? - Yes, sure.

- Do you have yours? Is that yours? - Yeah.

- I'll join them. - Yeah, sure.

My little guy.

- Cute, look. - How nice.

- Cute, isn't it? - And when will it be your turn?

Any moment.

- Yeah. - But not here.

No, I think we'll make it.

Oh Julia, you still have to tell me about the birth.

Would you like a drink?

We also have non-alcoholic champagne.

- Yeah, sure. I'd like that. - Yes?

You could have a real one too, right? A sip? Are you being very strict?

Julia. I wanted to tell you,

everyone's really looking forward to your Schubert concerts.

And the tour too. I mean, Hamburg is going to be amazing.

The Elbphilharmonie will be amazing.

Yes. But that's still so far away.

Oh, time flies.

Enjoy it, now's the best time.

When they're still so small.

Georg. Come quickly. Georg!

- What's wrong? - Look at his eyes.

What's wrong with them?

He's just looking.

Don't you think it's strange he was so quiet the whole time

even though there was so much going on?

- Would you rather have a screaming child? - No, of course not.

Maybe it was a bit too soon for you?

With all those people around.

I'm definitely glad they're gone now.

So.

Unbutton...

and get the legs out.

And get a fresh diaper and always hold tight.

There.

Shouldn't you get hungry at some point?

There.

Yes.

And...

Yes.

Sorry.

Go to sleep.

Go to sleep.

Hello.

- Hello. - Hey.

Did you play tricks on Mommy today?

Yes?

On the contrary.

He's always so quiet.

And Georg, please.

Can you stop calling me "Mommy"? It makes me feel so strange.

It makes me think of my mother.

OK.

All right.

Did you hear that?

You shouldn't call Mommy "Mommy."

Yes, but you can say "Daddy." Daddy, that's me.

You can remember that. "Daddy."

But we need a name now.

I mean, for the documents, right?

He hasn't told you what he wants to be called.

That's true. You haven't said yet.

But maybe we can use a temporary name.

A working title.

Adrian?

Come here.

Hello.

Are you Adrian?

Are you Adrian?

Yes, it all looks quite normal.

Are you doing well otherwise?

Yes.

Did you have a nice birth experience?

- Sorry. - That's OK.

No, everything's fine.

We were lucky.

A blessing in disguise.

Yes.

Don't you think the child is much too small?

No, I don't think so.

I mean, in my belly it was always bigger than average.

But you promised!

Luisa, no. We're not getting ice cream in the middle of winter.

Hey.

- Hey. - Hi. Congratulations, it's already here.

- Yes. - Now please wait a minute, OK?

How are you?

Yeah, not so good right now.

And you?

Not so well either, somehow.

But, I mean...

Come over for a coffee sometime.

- Yes. - That'd be great.

- Just ring, OK? - Yes.

Great.

- Can't I just briefly talk to someone? - You're always talking.

How are you?

Everything OK?

Yes... So far so good.

But I have a question.

Yes? Please.

So...

is it possible...

purely hypothetically...

Yes?

Totally hypothetically...

that the baby

was switched at birth?

Have you heard the saying: "Mother's baby, father's maybe"?

You know what I mean?

Yours was the only birth here that day.

But if you like... it would be unusual...

but if you like,

I can arrange a DNA test.

No. It's OK.

- Are you sure? - Yes.

OK.

Don't take on too much at once, Ms. Bode.

Try to see the birth, and by that I mean everything,

before and after,

as a marathon.

Yes.

OK?

I'm really sorry, but we have an awful lot to do today.

Oh, yes, of course. Sorry.

But may I take a quick look?

Yes. But he's sleeping right now.

Perfect.

He sleeps a lot.

They do, yes.

Here you go.

I have to see the doctor!

I have to see Dr. Vilfort!

Dr. Vilfort!

- Right away, please. - This way.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Yes.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Will you give some more thought to the name?

We really have to decide soon.

My mother also said she'd like

to tell her friends the name of her grandchild.

Child services also wrote again, the letter is here, OK?

So, now I'll just say goodbye.

Bye, my little one.

Bye.

You too, bye.

- Bye. - It's here, yeah?

Yes.

- Hello. - Hello.

A gift from the doctor.

Can I put it down in here? It's heavy.

- What is it? - An axolotl.

Julia, what...

You can't just leave him alone on the changing table.

Let it go, I'll do it.

Yeah, hello.

You can take him to the doctor frequently, he'll be happy.

But he's a gynecologist, not a pediatrician.

So?

I'll take care of him for a bit, you can lie down and rest.

- I'm not tired at all. - A mother who is not tired...

Yes, have you ever heard of that?

Have you ever heard of that?

Yes.

Are you hungry?

Aren't you getting enough to eat?

Are you still breastfeeding him?

Yes, it would probably be good to switch to the bottle now.

I brought one for you.

What?

A bottle.

Can you get it for me? It's in my bag. Please.

Yes. Mommy's getting the bottle.

Yes. So hungry.

Just the bottle.

She'll be right back with it.

Yes.

Look. Thank you.

So.

Yes.

Like that.

Everything's fine now.

Yes.

Why is it that he hardly ever cries?

Well, your child reflects you.

If he doesn't scream, it probably means you're very relaxed.

Yes.

Yes.

How you look.

Yes.

A typical Axolotl sleeps during the day.

They are true wonders of nature.

Their limbs can regenerate.

Whereas so-called fibroblasts form scars over human wounds,

Axolotl fibroblasts form embryonic stem cells.

These stem cells can form different types of cells

and thus regrow limbs or organs.

Could humans soon...

- Hello. - Hello.

I found some more baby clothes and thought you might want to have a look.

You're already giving him food?

No, I'm bottle-feeding him. The midwife advised me to.

Ah, really?

OK.

I don't know either, so I...

I know that feeling.

There are a thousand opinions on everything. Right?

But you know what? You're the mother.

You know best what's good for him.

Hello.

Hi.

Hey, Julia!

- Hey. - Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

Oh my God, how cute.

- And so small. - Yeah.

- Hey, come and sit with us. - Yeah?

How are you?

How are we? Good.

How are you?

Yeah. Yeah. Everything's fine.

How's conducting going?

- Yeah. OK. - Yeah?

Hello? It's going great.

Renata is now even directing the new Schubert performance.

I wanted to tell you that.

Really?

Wow.

But it was just decided.

- Heinz called you, didn't he? - No.

- So you didn't know yet? - No.

But, yes, that's wonderful! It's... It's great.

What an opportunity.

Yes, they had to move it up to this season,

because the whole Brahms series has been postponed.

- I see. - But none of this will affect the tour.

You'll do it as planned.

Hopefully.

- Well, of course. - Of course.

You see, that's what happens when you let your guard down for a moment.

If you're out for a few weeks after 15 years.

But we can't let that happen, do you hear?

You don't mind if I do a little work now, do you?

Hey. Back so soon?

Don't you think the music is a bit loud for the little one?

Oh, it doesn't bother him.

I was able to work all day.

He was quiet the whole time.

All right. And has he eaten?

I'll give him something now.

What? He hasn't eaten all day?

What? You think I'm not taking care of him?

I'm taking care of everything here.

Changing diapers, disinfecting bottles, all this baby shit.

- Baby shit. - Yes. And everything else, by the way.

Loading and unloading the dishwasher,

loading and unloading the washing machine, hanging up the laundry.

And now I worked just once, which you do every day!

And you come home and start making accusations!

Yes, that's what we agreed on. Right?

Then I'll stay here during your tour!

- No! You're not listening to me! - Yes! I am!

No! Work is important for me too! Essential for my survival!

Now you're making it seem as if I'm forcing you to give up your job!

But it doesn't mean that I have to give up myself!

Now take the mask and hold it like this over the face.

- Like this? - Exactly.

- Can I ride along? - It'd be better if you drove.

OK, yeah.

We'll take it from here.

What's happening now?

What's happening?

You have to wait outside.

- No. I want to be with my child. - No.

- I want to be with my child, please! - Excuse me. No.

- I'll hold the arms, yeah? - Yeah.

- What are you doing? - Excuse me. No.

I want to be with my child now!

- Ms. Bode. - What have you done with my child?

- You need to calm down. - I want to see my child now!

- You need to calm down. - Where is it now?

What's happening with my child?

What have you done?

Your child is fine. Everything is fine, nothing happened.

They just took him away from me.

Where is he?

We're doing some routine tests. That's all.

And that is all completely normal.

But it's not normal. The changing table is like this high.

And he doesn't cry, he feels no pain, he's never hungry.

Excuse me, but we're both in shock.

How did you determine that, Ms. Bode?

What?

That the child feels no pain.

Georg, something's not right here. Please give me my child back immediately.

- May I please speak to you in private? - Of course.

No!

Whatever you want to say to him, you can say in front of me!

After birth, it's possible for a woman's hormones

to be in a kind of exceptional state.

I can understand why your wife is acting this way,

but there's no getting through to her right now!

But this is a situation that can be remedied.

So I'll recommend an institute for postpartum depression

in addition close monitoring here at the clinic.

Both your wife and the child should come to us regularly.

- OK. - All right.

- Is that OK? - OK.

Ms. Bode.

Please.

We don't normally do this.

But I really want to help you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Why were you talking to him as if I weren't even here?

I wasn't talking to him. I was just listening to what he said.

I'm not coming here again.

Never again.

And if they don't give us our child now, then I'll call the police.

Yes, and all you'll achieve is exactly what he said.

That everyone thinks you're a hysterical mother.

Yeah, but I don't care!

Why did they even bring us here?

There's no emergency room here. Why did the ambulance bring us here?

Don't you find that suspicious?

You wanted a child.

But not this one.

You can't just give it back, right?

Why not?

We'll just leave it here at the clinic and go.

Are you serious?

Yes. I mean nobody can force us to take care of this child.

There are so many people who want a child and can't have one.

You were just about to call the police, now you want to leave it here.

I don't understand.

I think

everything's fine with our child.

But something is wrong with you right now.

These are perfectly normal thoughts that you're having.

Expectant mothers are under an enormous amount of pressure.

They have to be happy at the push of a button when their baby is born

and if they're not, they doubt themselves above all.

I am so ashamed.

Why can't I just...

just accept it?

This is for some medication you can take while breastfeeding.

It will help you get over your inner crisis.

In early childhood,

the interaction between the child and the caregiver is crucial.

If you won't take it for yourself, take it for your child.

Hello.

Hello.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes. He was very well behaved.

How was your appointment?

Fine.

Yes, say "Hello, Mommy."

Yes.

What's bothering you?

Yes.

Is this from you?

- For him? - Yes.

For you.

Gerlinde, it's really nice of you to help us,

but you don't have to bring something every time.

I know.

But I like to.

Can I have my son now?

Sorry. Yes.

Yeah. Careful.

Sorry.

It's OK. I have to go anyway, or I'll be late.

- Bye. - Bye.

Hey.

Yes.

Yes.

Hello.

Your little fingers.

Hello. I didn't hear you come in.

Sorry.

- Hello. - Hello.

How are you?

Good.

You too, huh?

I brought something.

For me?

Look.

What's that?

So it doesn't get lonely.

In you go.

- Yeah. - Swim over there.

See? They're together already.

Then he just lies there and looks up.

Sometimes I don't even know whether he's asleep or awake.

He just lies there? With his eyes open or closed?

Open.

He sleeps with his eyes open?

No. No, of course not.

But...

Yes, of course he's awake, but he...

he just has a calm, contemplative expression.

Oh, that's great. A Zen baby.

But it doesn't stay that way. They return.

They return with a big budget and a huge volume.

He tries to eat my face. Do you know that?

In the cheeks and nose and then he slobbers all over me.

Yes.

Funny. That's Franziska.

That's... that's the one I told you about.

I met her at prenatal yoga. Remember?

She's the one who gave birth at the same hospital as you,

with the same doctor.

She also had difficulty getting pregnant.

Didn't I... I...

Oh, I might not have because it was such a tragic story.

What story?

Yes, but now they have a baby and they're totally happy.

- Hi. - Hello.

- Oh... - Hello. Hello.

How nice. Yeah.

Yeah. Julia, Franziska. Franziska, Julia.

Nice to meet you. Hello.

- We haven't seen each other in ages. - I know.

I only know your little one from social media.

Yes, I'll introduce you then.

Manuel!

Ah, before I forget:

Birgit said they're doing baby swimming.

Shall we go there together? Julia, you could come too.

- Yes. - Yes?

Can I ask you a quick question?

Because Anna just said

that you gave birth in the same clinic as me.

Yes, you were the one with Dr. Vilfort, right?

- Yes, exactly. - Horrible clinic.

What exactly happened to you there?

I... don't really want to talk about it now.

Oh please, it's really important for me to know.

What's with the doctor?

What did he do to you?

Julia, the doctor has nothing to do with this.

What did he do to your child?

- Hello. - Hello.

What's the matter?

She also gave birth with Dr. Vilfort, but she won't tell me what happened.

- Sorry. Julia is just a bit... - The child died after the birth.

Sudden infant death syndrome.

I fell asleep next to her and when I woke up

she was already all gray.

I'm sorry. Sorry.

- OK, we'll talk? - Yes, we'll talk.

- OK. - I'll call you later, OK?

Sounds good. All right. Nice to see you.

You too. Get home safely.

Yes, have a nice walk. OK.

- See you soon. Yes, bye. - Bye.

- Bye Manuel. - Bye.

What was the matter?

I thought you were taking something for that?

For what?

Well...

But what do you think that stuff does to me?

I'm still the same person, aren't I?

That's not the point.

You know...

I could take the little one and go to my mother's.

Then you'll have space.

- You can take care of yourself. - What? Georg?

You're my husband.

You have to stand by my side and fight with me.

There is no fight.

The fight is in your head.

- What happened? - I want this thing out of our apartment.

What is it? Oh, God.

And I don't want the midwife to come here either.

And I'm not going back to the clinic.

And I want a different pediatrician, a real one.

All right. Whatever you want.

Hello. Can I help you?

Thanks. No.

- Let me know if you need anything, OK? - Yes.

Are you looking for something specific?

About size...

56?

Is this your child?

Yes.

It is.

Look, we got these in this morning.

Please don't worry. Everything's OK.

OK.

But if you want, I can stay at home.

They'll be fine at the construction site without me.

That's sweet, but you don't need to.

No?

Besides, child services is coming today.

Yes, exactly.

I thought it might be good if we did it together.

Are you afraid that I'll embarrass us?

Nonsense.

You'll do great.

And you, yeah...

You'll do great too.

You're so cute lying there.

Nice apartment.

Yes. How does it actually work?

- Do you come unannounced? - Thank you.

Or do you make an appointment? How does it work?

Don't think of it as surveillance by child services.

It's simply additional assistance.

Additional assistance.

Yes.

You really need to decide on a name for the baby.

There are legal deadlines where our hands are tied.

Yes. Yes.

We know that.

There are two names left, we can't quite decide.

OK.

- I'll go have a look, OK? - Yes, please.

Oops, someone peed their pants.

Come here.

I'll change you. Doesn't bother you, does it?

No, not at all.

I'm not here to impede you.

I have to admit that I googled you briefly beforehand

and watched a few of your concert clips.

It's really impressive what you do, how you keep the whole orchestra together.

I played the clarinet at music school when I was a teenager

and was also in the orchestra,

but I don't know, it's different on the big stage...

And now...

- Hey. Hello. - There is a cable in my child's mouth.

- Where? - Here. A cable.

- That has to come out. - Yes. But, it's stuck.

OK, wait. I'll look.

Sweetie, who puts something like that in their mouth?

Come here.

Very good.

Come here.

Oh, wow.

Oh, wow. That's long.

Hey, who puts something like that in their mouth?

- Is it all out? - I'll have a look.

Yes, it looks like it.

OK.

Don't worry, they're always putting things in their mouths.

It's normal. Even the little ones.

Luisa put things in her mouth,

but our doctor said it all comes out again down below.

Can you come with me to a pediatrician?

To your doctor, the one you take your daughter to?

- Yes. Sure. - Right now?

Right now?

Ms. Bode?

Is everything all right?

Yes, yes. You can go now.

Yes, and you? Where are you going?

And where's the baby?

Ms. Bode?

- Ms. Bode, please. - Yes.

- Will you come along? - Yes.

- Come in. - Please just leave me alone.

Ms. Bode, your child looks perfectly healthy.

But could you please X-ray him?

I don't have any X-ray equipment here.

But he swallowed a cable.

What's your concern?

I think it's related to what happened at birth.

Because there... he had the umbilical cord around his neck,

there was a lack of oxygen, and then they took him away immediately.

I didn't see him at all.

And the next day, suddenly everything was fine.

Yes, OK. Every child has a lack of oxygen immediately after birth.

And only with the first breaths do they attain full lung capacity.

I looked at the values in the file.

There's nothing to be concerned about.

And if there really had been a relevant lack of oxygen,

your child would have been taken to intensive care

and emergency measures would have been initiated.

The baby would probably have had to spend several weeks there.

Where did you give birth?

At the private clinic Lumen Vitae. With Dr. Vilfort.

- There's the doctor. - What?

The one from the private clinic.

- Where? - Ms. Bode, please.

Ms. Bode?

Can you take him to the X-ray for me? Please?

- Me? - Yes.

Yeah. Yeah, sure.

Come on.

Come on.

Julia?

- Georg, what are you doing here? - Where's our son?

He's in the X-ray with Elisabeth.

With whom?

With our neighbor.

With Elisabeth... I don't understand. What's going on?

And, Georg. Dr. Vilfort, he's here. And he's up to something.

- He's experimenting with those axolotls. - Why are you doing this?

Why are you doing this to us?

You're risking them taking the child away.

Listen, I'm not risking losing our child.

Yes! You ran away from the social worker.

You are acting like a crazy person.

There he is.

Give him to me. Thank you.

Come on. I'm taking him to my mother's now.

Georg, listen. Something's wrong here. Dr. Vilfort...

You're sick. And you should accept the help that is being offered to you.

Ms. Bode?

- Yes? - You're Ms. Bode?

Who's the mother?

I am. I'm the mother.

OK.

Georg, come and take a look.

- The Bode family? - Yes.

We didn't find any foreign objects in your child.

Yeah? Everything's fine.

- What? - Yes. Everything's fine.

So, you can go home again.

Georg.

Georg.

Can we please talk?

Calmly.

Please.

NEONATAL WARD ELEVATORS

- Hello. - Hello.

Yes, please?

I'm coming to see Mia.

Please move aside.

Are you looking for something?

Yes. I have a question. My child was brought here.

- Joni! - Yes?

Can you please help the mom here?

- Yes. How can I help? - I have a question.

My child was brought here with the umbilical cord around its neck.

Today?

On January 7th.

- On January 7th? - Yes.

That was a long time ago.

Was it born here?

No. At the Lumen Vitae private clinic.

- And you are? - The mother.

I can check the system. What was the girl's name again?

A boy. Bode.

- January 17th? - Seventh.

No, I don't have anything here.

That wasn't here.

But it must have been here.

No child was brought here that day.

- 22. - Thank you. That's mine.

Ms. Bode...

Hey there, little one.

Did you pull the cable out again?

Can I help you?

Where's your child now?

Did your child die during the birth?

What?

- Did your child... - No.

- Hello. - Hello.

My name is Julia Bode and I'd like to have the records from my birth.

OK.

Right, you were here for the last time on February 19th.

Not those. I'd like the ones from the birth.

OK.

Just a minute, please.

Yes. Hi.

Ms. Bode is here, and she'd like the records from her birth.

Yes.

Yes. OK. Thank you.

I'm terribly sorry, but the records are no longer available.

That can't be.

They must be there. Please check again.

- They're no longer in our system. - Find them, for God's sake!

I'm sorry. I can't find the records, because they're no longer in our system.

- Hello. - Hello.

Everything OK?

Yes. Hey, about yesterday. I'm sorry.

No. No problem.

You know what else occurred to me?

I was thinking,

normally the midwives are always great advocates

of long periods of breastfeeding and breast milk, aren't they?

Well...

I don't know. That was weird.

Hello, Beate.

Hello, Julia.

I'd like to see Georg and my child.

I'm sorry.

But at the moment...

Can I come in?

I'm really so sorry.

But, you know...

Sorry. I was on the phone.

Georg.

I was right. There was never another hospital.

They lied.

Who do you mean by "they"? Do you mean Dr. Vilfort?

Yes.

A truly charming man.

Would you mind going in, please?

What? Dr. Vilfort was here?

He really takes good care of Adrian.

- The child needs a name. - Thank you Mother, we're fine here now.

Adrian?

Yes, we had to pick a name for now.

You can change it again if you want.

OK? I'll take care of it then.

I want to see him.

Hey...

Take time for yourself. OK?

MEDICAL LAB

Julia, what are you doing? What's all this?

Where are the records from my birth? And my child?

I want to see them. I have a right to.

Where did you take the child and what did you do with it?

Why don't you just take care of your child like any other normal mother?

Because I don't have a normal child.

And you know it.

You're a midwife.

Shouldn't you be on my side?

I was always at your side.

Don't you have a code of honor? Or don't you give a shit about all that?

- Ms. Bode? - Julia?

You have to take better care of yourself,

Ms. Bode.

When was the last time you ate?

I admire you

for your work,

for your art,

your willpower.

Everything you've achieved.

When I saw you on the podium, conducting,

I thought,

this woman can do anything.

What have you done with my child?

You wanted a child.

And I promised you that it would work.

And I keep my promises.

- Did you... - Ms. Bode.

You already tried to break in to our laboratory.

I won't report you, but if you do it again...

I don't want to harm your career, but

you can certainly imagine what that would mean for your custody.

And you can also imagine what an insanity plea

would mean for a woman in your position.

Can I tell you something?

There is a saying that I really appreciate.

"We have to be willing to let go of the life we have planned

in order to live the life that awaits us."

Maybe that will help you.

Can I go now?

You can leave at any time.

Although, given the state of your ankle,

walking might not be the best idea.

Do you want us to call your husband?

No? Then you'll walk.

Take care.

Excuse me. Do you need help?

I need some air.

Ms. Bode?
