Original subtitles

I won't let you down

I will not give you up

Gotta have somebody for myself

Somebody to hold and I've got

I won't let you down

So please don't leave me alone

Cause I will never let love

Just stick around, oh yeah

Everybody knows what it is

I don't want to know

Who I want to be

Who I want to be

I was ever a little hungry

I stood up and cried

And I guess I wasn't hungry

It's a me. It's a me. It's a me.

It's like a computer game.

It's a me. It's a me.

Ashes...

Ashes...

Nothing but awesome ashes.

Oh man, Mathis.

Mieke is not coming anymore.

She must have missed the train.

Oh man, we could have been at the beach a long time ago.

With chicks and stuff.

What are we going to do instead?

Get your sister from the train station.

Hi Mathis, what are you doing here?

Hi Lena, I'm waiting for Mieke.

The next train is in an hour.

Will you take me home?

Dad, don't turn around!

I'm not doing anything.

Oh Mathis, this trick is really old.

But it still works.

Yes, of course.

Now I know what I missed the last few weeks.

We can have dinner in the evening.

For the celebration of the day, Mieke's favorite food.

You ungrateful kids.

Thank you for picking me up, brother.

I was at the station, but you didn't come.

Have you heard of waiting?

Well, I met Lena.

What do you have to do with Lena?

I brought her the bag home.

And?

And then her mother came.

Oh, and she still likes you, doesn't she?

Oh, Mathis, my dear, could you give me a hug?

Something like that.

You won't believe it, but it was pretty boring without you.

No one steals my T-shirts or my pens anymore.

Life is really boring as a loner.

With grandma it was actually quite relaxing.

Hello, is Jan in?

You're Mieke, aren't you?

Mieke, this is ...

Simona.

I've heard a lot about you.

Aha, that's interesting.

I have to go to the kitchen after dinner.

Yes, yes, I'm coming with you.

How long has it been?

A while.

Oh, I couldn't stand it without you.

Simona, not the children now.

Your children aren't that little anymore either.

We have to be careful, Mieke.

Your daughter and I, we will get along wonderfully.

What kind of rumor was that?

Just burst in like that.

Dad got it. He's listening to Eros Ramazzotti now.

And when you're sitting in the car with him,

he suddenly turns the radio louder and says,

that's our song.

Well, love makes him stupid.

So, how is she?

She's into men like Jan,

listens to Eros Ramazzotti and

comes to our school as an English teacher.

Aha.

I always thought fathers are too stupid

to put sausages on the grill and decorate the Christmas tree.

But that they also have to fart.

I thought it was over when I was 40.

I don't think that will ever stop.

Why did you pick that up again?

Don't you like it?

It's a typical Mieke earring.

My mother's face.

Mathis?

I'm glad I'm with you again.

I love you.

May I put on your T-shirt?

Like in the old days?

Yes, like in the old days.

Ah, Miss World is coming.

Can you tell me what Mieke is wearing again?

Mathis thinks it's because of the 19 year old.

I'm going to take a shower.

So, what's the problem?

She doesn't get that there's a new one coming out.

It's obvious what's behind it.

She's jealous of her father's luck.

Maybe she should look for someone else as a trendsetter.

A bit more action, you know?

Hi, Mieke.

Hi, Lena.

Where's Frederik?

Ice-time?

I'm your surprise egg.

If you want, you can take me out.

Yes, that's okay. I'm going.

Felix?

Wait, I'm coming with you.

What?

Are you stupid?

You're so stupid.

The hottest chick in school is coming.

And you?

You're pulling her tail.

Andi is just my type.

I'm getting bored. I'm going to start again.

I think I know what it is.

You're too hot.

You have too much power.

You have too much sex.

Stop it.

I'm not into that.

Then you take her if you think she's hot.

Then I have to go to bed.

I need a towel from you.

Yes.

If you go on like this, you'll die as an old virgin.

Or are you not into women anymore?

Okay.

One thing is clear.

Since a few days, you only have glances for your pretty twin sisters.

So...

If you didn't know that you're siblings, you could think that you're in love.

Mika is lying.

Felix is lying.

Hello, Lina.

Have you seen Mika?

Hi, Frederik.

She's in there.

Tell her to hurry up, or we'll leave without her.

Michaela?

I love you.

First you skip school.

Then you call because there's something urgent to discuss.

And then you don't say a word.

Are you kidding me?

If you have a problem, you have to open your mouth.

Maybe I'm just fed up with this fucking complicated life.

Then you have to open your mouth.

I'll take John, then all the garbage is gone.

Gone with the shit?

Hey, watch out!

Who's got the ass full of problems, huh?

At my home, there's a war going on, you know.

My parents are only arguing.

And if not, then they don't yell at me when I'm growing up.

I don't give a shit.

There was love once...

A real love.

Love doesn't exist.

Love is just a rumor.

You really have no idea.

Tell me, man, is it possible that...

...that you've fallen in love?

Damn, man, you've fallen in love.

Hey, stay calm.

Do as I do. Just tell me.

Ice cream? Cinema? Pizza?

Something with candlelight.

Hey, come on.

Hey, come on, stop this shit.

Mathis. Mathis!

Mathis!

Do you want to get killed or what?

So far away are the contacts.

I loved you so much.

But that's quite far away.

Hi.

Hello.

What are you up to?

I'm going to Mathis. I found his wallet.

Ah.

If you're lucky, he's already in the bathtub.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

I found your wallet.

At the lake.

Okay.

Some people say you're gay.

Are you?

If it would make me happy, I would.

And what makes you happy?

I love you.

Lieke!

Hello, my poor child.

Hello, dad.

Hello.

That's a nice book.

Yes, it's from dad's library.

Hey.

Can you get me a glass of water?

And?

What do you think of her?

Isn't she...

great?

Are you happy with her?

Yes, very.

Lieke,

you'll be the first to know.

You know,

Simona is having a baby.

You know what, dad?

I don't think I like her.

Mathis?

Do you have a girlfriend?

You have to know that.

Sometimes you don't know anything.

Damn it.

Mathis!

Your father is having a baby.

At least one in the family.

What do you expect from me?

That I'll be alone all my life?

Nonsense.

But you have to understand me.

You're moving at a good pace.

You know,

Simona is the first woman I can imagine

With her and with you.

Yes, she's fine.

I'm not saying anything against that.

I love her.

Just because you go to bed with her?

Just because I go to bed with her.

Sex and love aren't the same.

Only a lot of people realize that.

Or only when it's too late.

You can't do that.

And not even in love.

But...

But if the others demand such compromises...

Mathis, you have to stay true to yourself.

Only you.

Don't give a shit about the others.

It's your life.

Look,

I've been alone for years and I've always done my thing.

I built this workshop.

I wanted it to be good for me and you.

And now also for Simona.

But how can you be so sure that Simona isn't a compromise?

That you really love her?

Because Simona is the first woman I can imagine getting old with.

So staying with someone for longer than 17 years?

Yes.

Just like you and Mieke and me.

And that's love.

I want Simona out of here for 3-4 days.

Do you think that's okay?

Sure.

I'll take care of Mieke.

I love you.

I think that I'm the only one who's lonely.

Someone calls on me.

And every now and then I spend my time at Reimann-Wurst

and curse those faults.

Matthias.

What is it?

Are you still dressed?

I must have fallen asleep.

Everything okay?

I'm fine.

Why Frederik?

Why Lena?

Is that why you took off your shoes with him?

Why shouldn't I?

The problem is...

I mean, Frederik is okay and I like him, but...

But you don't love him.

You don't?

Are you in love with Lena?

No.

Was there something going on with her?

Not with me and Frederik.

I think he's pretty mad.

I can't imagine that.

You with a boyfriend and me with a girlfriend.

And we both...

Then don't imagine it.

Felix, what's going on?

I can't stand it at home.

I could kill my father.

I could even sleep here.

That's so stupid.

Everyone knows the weaknesses of others so well

and is so merciless.

What a bunch of cats.

I can't stand it.

My mother and father are so sick of him.

He should run to his girlfriend and leave us alone.

Do you have anything to drink?

But no apple juice, okay?

Hey, what's up with you?

Come on, man.

You're my best friend.

Yeah, sure.

I'm...

I'm...

I'm in love.

Yeah.

I know that by now.

And besides, there's something missing.

What's the point?

It's...

I just don't know how to tell you.

Come on, forget it.

No, no, no.

Come on, come on.

Am I just a best friend or not?

Yeah, sure.

So come on, tell me.

Is it something with Lena? Is she cheating on you or what?

It's not Lena.

It's...

It's Mieke.

What?

I don't know.

I'm in love with Mieke.

Mathis.

Mieke is your sister.

Oh, I just don't know.

You can't be serious.

You can't do that.

Why not?

Because it's incest, man!

If you need someone to beat up, find someone else!

Shit, I can't do this.

I can't do this.

I can't stand my mother either.

That's completely different.

Yeah, and...

Sorry, it's the same for me.

See?

That's why I knew I couldn't tell you.

Do you think I wouldn't be against it?

I can't do anything about it either.

I know.

I know you can't do anything about it.

You can.

But the others don't know.

Do you have another beer?

Shit.

Oh, shit.

Hey, baby.

Did you know this is our first meeting?

And?

How was I?

You were like the first raindrop

that drips down from dark branches.

The weather is just as bad as it is here.

A potential father-killer.

And a potential sister-killer.

We're real scumbags.

Trash.

Trash.

Hey, man.

Don't make a fool of yourself.

You have to distract yourself.

You can't think about Nico and yourself all the time.

Otherwise you'll provoke it.

I have to go now.

To my old man at the taxi station.

See you tonight.

Sweetie.

Hey, and are you into something?

Hey, Mieke.

Do you know that feeling when you really want to do something...

...but you know, you'll never achieve it?

Yeah.

You better watch, don't mess with me

You're my only man

You're my love

The sweetest thing

Did I promise you too much?

What do we have here, pretty?

You're not there, you're not there

Get funky

Yeah, baby

Tell a lie to the air

Go

Check out this new jacket

Go

So who say you wanted money

But you know it's never funny

When you choose one, two

And there's a rumble in your tummy

But you have to have style

Get a go-to smile

Put a girl on the corner

So you can make her pop

Committed a crime and went inside

It was coming your way

But you had to survive

When you lost your way

You lost your race

Now you're looking at me

To take her place

Who's looking good today?

Who's looking good in every way?

No sour cheese

You better watch out

Mess with me

I'm a money man

With my love

It's sweet

Messed up

I'm a stinkin' mess

We always hangin' up on the low stand

It's about time

To stand Tryin' to love, baby

Knockin' up the left chance

I think I'd rather never have left mommy's belly

Than to have been in there with you

Forever and ever

Very soft and warm

Little Mieke

I'm not that little anymore

It used to be a lot less complicated

Nobody would care if we were hanging out together

And today it's all a problem

Only if we do it

You're my sister

And your girlfriend

Yes

But I can't tell anyone

And what do you do if someone asks you if you have a girlfriend?

Then I say no

But you'd be lying

That's not true

Why? What am I to you?

My sister, of course

Close your eyes

Tell me if you think I'm lying

Stop

See?

It's not that simple

We can't do this anymore

It's...

Maybe it's just a dream

It has to stop, Mieke

Every dream has to stop

Why?

Because it's forbidden

Then why do we need permission for happiness?

Who are we hurting with our love?

Who are we hurting?

Maybe ourselves

Don't do it

Are you scared?

Do you really think the day could change our love?

Morning, Mieke

You're back

I know it's boring

Let's have breakfast

I'll wake you up

I'll do it

Good morning, dad

Good morning, child

Hello

Why don't you give Simone a chance?

Because she pushed herself into it

And because she's carrying a child, dad

There are always two, Mieke

I wanted it that way

But you have children

Aren't we enough for you?

Mieke, you know you're talking nonsense

I want you to give Simone a chance

Promise me

I promise

Then we'll be a real family again

If she moves in with us, it's over

Who's that?

Who's that?

Good morning

Good morning

May I introduce you to Katrin Kröger?

She came to us with her family from Vienna

She came to us with her family from Vienna

Maybe you should have seen her

Here, Martin's got a five again

Talk to him

You're practically family now

Maybe he's got the wrong number

Rumor has it, but be careful

That his friend Felix Beck is cheating on you

I really don't understand you idiots

Come on, stop it

Nobody can see us

What if they do?

Hey, you two

Are you two together?

You're doing great

Let's try something else

Come a little closer

And kiss each other on the mouth

Like two lovers

Yes

Nice

You're talking nonsense

You're not seriously suggesting

that my son is a drug addict

Maybe he's just in love

With whom?

I don't know

Maybe his sister?

Fuck you

You did it, didn't you?

You slept with your sister

Man

I hope you know what happens when it comes out

And what happened to Mathis

When we came home and saw her from her room?

Her room only had a pair of jeans

My God, Simone

They're twins

And not just today

I know

I know you don't want to hear this

But their behavior is strange

When Mieke ran out, I called Mathis

Even though he was in her room

It doesn't make sense

Maybe they're embarrassed

Because you're there

Sniffing around

I didn't mean it like that

What do you mean?

Why don't you want to see this?

They're your children

And soon yours

In a way

You told him

He knows

You told him that we...

No, I didn't

Then why are you sitting there?

You can tell me what you want

He knows

Who did you have to talk to at school?

We hugged a thousand times in front of Felix

You had to tell him something

And if you did, what would be so bad about it?

One day, if he needs money for his drugs, he'll kill us

Mieke, Felix is my friend

Do you want an omelette?

I hate omelettes

Jan?

Yes, I'll talk to him

Shit, you almost drowned

Leave your damn drugs alone

I don't take drugs

No, you don't take drugs

You don't smoke joints

And what about all those pills?

They're painkillers

Next, I have to...

It's a weird tube

I think it's a tumor

Where?

Here

Up here

But why didn't you say anything?

I just wanted to be cool

Not the stupid epileptic

When do you have to go to the clinic?

Tomorrow

Do you know what's the worst?

I've never slept with a woman

Hey, maybe I can arrange something with you and Lena

Don't worry, Casanova

My women can take care of themselves

Thanks

I have to go

Felix

If there's anything I can do for you...

I'm not going crazy, okay?

Besides, whether you believe me or not

Right now, I'm more worried about you

I love you

Sometimes, you feel all alone in this world

How do you know that?

I have eyes in my head

And? What do you see with those eyes?

That you're not well

What do you mean, not well?

Maybe it's just a bit much right now

Your siblings?

Half-siblings

My father got married again

After my mother died

I know that from somewhere

My mother died 16 years ago

And shortly after our birth, she was hit by a truck

The older I get, the less I can start with her

I didn't even know her

You don't have to see people to know them

Close your eyes

God, I don't know if he's taking drugs!

Welcome to the cross-examination

Dad and his great new girlfriend have a question for you

Hello, Katrin

Hello, Michaela

Good evening

This is my father

You know Mrs. Silas, right?

This is Katrin

Hello

Hi, Katrin

I think I have to go

No, stay!

No, it's already late

I'm leaving

Bye

Bye, Mathis

Bye, Katrin

We just talked about this with Mieke

Michaela

My name is Michaela

He calls me Mieke, he can call me Mieke, but not you!

Mieke!

I'm sorry, Michaela

We just talked to Michaela about your boyfriend Felix

and the rumor that he's taking drugs, is that true?

Drugs?

Felix doesn't take drugs

Felix has a brain tumor!

He's taking painkillers!

I'm sorry to disappoint you!

Oh God, I'm so sorry

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry

I didn't mean what I said about Felix

Mathis, can I talk to you?

Mieke

I wanted to ask you what you're doing tomorrow

I have two tickets for the Graviton Test

I already planned it

Tell me, what did I do to you?

I mean, first you take me to your place

and then you suddenly go crazy

It has nothing to do with you

Oh yeah?

I don't think you realize what's going on here

What do you mean?

You don't understand me

And you know what?

I'm sick of your kind

Well, Lisa?

I know a cute little hotel

with a cute little whirlpool

We should both go there together

I'm too thirsty

Mathis!

Could you bring Mieke here, please?

I'm beautiful, Mathis

Why don't you kiss me?

Why don't you want to sleep with me?

Come on, Mathis

Stop it, I can't do this

Because you're fucking your sister

Mathis?

Are you okay?

I'm fine

Something's wrong

I have to take Felix to the hospital

I promised him

It's not going to work

Life can be pretty shitty

But it can also be pretty nice

You should never forget that

The only way we can help Felix

is to keep our fingers crossed for him

I'm always here for you

Are you sure you're going to the city?

Yes

I don't know what to tell him

But there are so many weird rumors at school

People talk about little brothers and sisters

But who wants to be the evil witch?

What's wrong?

Forget it

Do you know something or don't you know anything?

I don't want to say anything

Come on, get out

I want you to get out

Thanks, buddy

Do you want me to come in?

No, leave it

Aren't you afraid?

I'm not afraid

She'll cut my head off

Maybe there's another way

They're not even sure, are they?

Maybe they're not

I can play your guardian angel

You might need it

I prefer you in real life

Okay, then...

Take care

Come on, don't make that face

Smile

That's better

Oh, I almost forgot

Here

So Lena won't leave you alone

I took a picture of her with a clown

I have to go

Okay

See you

Mathis

How are you, Felix?

He set me up instead of me

Can you imagine something like that?

Oh, Mathis

I feel like everything's collapsing

You can't say that

It's not true

You know as well as I do that it's true

Sometimes I wish, before I'm most afraid,

that it's all over

We have no chance

And we have nothing to lose

Hello, Mathis

Hi, Katrin

I wanted to give you your book

and then I wanted to go to the fair with you

Hello, Michaela

Hello, Katrin

I want to kidnap your brother

I promised Mieke that...

Go away

Go away

Mieke

I think I found a safe

You learned to walk with them

You put yourself on their little thin legs

and walked away

Uncertain, you don't know what to do

My little child, what's wrong with you?

I'm not happy, dad

I'm not happy either

If you don't talk to me, I can't help you

How can I talk about something I can't talk about?

You mean you can't talk about feelings

Sometimes you don't even know if they're right or wrong

Everything that makes you happy, small, is right

What else makes you happy?

Does it make you so unhappy that I love Simona?

Simona, Simona, only Simona

Leave me alone with your fucking Simona

We agreed that you'd give her a chance

That's not the point

Listen to me, my poor child

I left you your diapers

against the resistance of all the grandmas in the world

and your pacifier

I bought you a piano

and your first lipstick

I love to eat white beans on your birthday

So you know me better, dad?

I can imagine that for children

it's not one of the most pleasant things

that their father

sleeps with a woman

But if you love each other, you want to sleep with each other

Love is everything, even a child

Dad, this is not about Simona and you

It's about Mathis and me

You feel left behind

The world doesn't work because two people love each other

What do you know, dad?

No matter what happens, my love for you and Mathis

never ends

You made me a father, you are my children

and it will always be that way

even if you have children of your own

Promise?

When children are small, they have very small worries

The bigger they get, the bigger their worries get

If I only knew what's going on with Mieke lately

I can tell you that

She's going to be a young woman

The photo with Mathis is done

And?

There's more

Don't be funny

The boy is 16

And he likes to take pictures

He needs a model

He's jealous that he's taking his sister

He's not a Helmut Newton

He's innocent

I'm sorry, but it's all a mess

It's not a mess

It's just another part of the puzzle

And what about Katrin?

Why is my son walking around the garden with a pretty girl

holding hands when he's with his sister?

Oh no

Leave it, I'll do it

Why don't you want to see it?

Nobody likes it

You've never done anything with your cook

It's going to be a great party

You won't impress the teacher

Too bad, it's not going to be a great career

My tie

Who would have thought that I'd invite him as a teacher to my house for dinner

The students are really nice

I'm convinced

Sleep with me

Don't forget that you get a child from an official

A terrible thought, an official's child

Especially when you think about what a chaotic father he is

Don't worry, I've got everything under control

Think of my twins

Damn, the wine didn't cool down

I told Mathis half an hour ago

He just won't listen to me

Where are they?

Wait, I'll do it

It was nice of you to come

Jan, are you coming?

Jan!

May I introduce you to Mr. and Mrs. Höfler

My future husband, Mr. Domming

Let's go in

I was looking for you all evening

We have a chest of drawers from the 17th century

I forgot something

You were right

How could I have been so blind?

What happened?

Mathis is sleeping with his sister

They're in bed together

Jan...

What should I do? I can't just go up there

and pull Mathis out of bed and shoot him

That wouldn't change the situation

Unfortunately, it's too late

Why didn't I want to realize it earlier?

Why didn't I just go in and pretend it didn't happen?

What would you do instead?

Send the Höflers home and tell them why?

Put on your T-shirt properly

Dad...

For the first time in my life, I really want to beat someone

Dad, please!

Get out of my sight

I don't like cold

I'd like that

We'll make some coffee

If we have guests, we'll have a cup of coffee and a big break

Where are your two twins?

Dad...

I was hoping to get a copy of the piano pieces from your daughter

She's supposed to be very talented

The artistic talent of my family!

You can feel this sensitivity as soon as you step into the house

I heard you're a passionate sailor

My husband loves to sail

We're leaving

What?

This is our only chance

Mieke, I don't know...

We don't have a future

Do we even have one?

I'll go

Lomberg?

Hello Mr. Lomberg, this is Felix. Can I speak to Matte?

I just got the news...

You can treat my tumor medically

Can you imagine that?

Mr. Lomberg?

Mieke

Hattis!

Hattis, come!

Tell him to leave

Please, let's talk

There's nothing left to talk about

Mieke, what's this?

I know that you love each other

And if it were possible, believe me...

I would accept it

And why don't you?

You told us to do this to make you happy

Let's do this

Leave us alone

Let's just go, dad

Where are you going?

You can run away from me

And Simona

But you can't run away from yourself

We just want to be happy

I don't want anything else for you

But if I don't forbid you to love each other

others will do it

We don't have a chance, do we?

Yes, we do

One chance

Stay here

The first picture of your sister

I still can't imagine that

dad and you are here

I know

I love him very much

I don't want to take him away from you

I know

I think I know what it's like to love someone

Can I keep this?

It's for you

I feel like I'm bleeding

It was beautiful

Thank you

I loved sleeping with you

Your eyes have changed so much in the last few weeks

Did you cry?

We have to go

I love you

Do you remember?

I used to want to go to the boarding school

and you didn't let me

I miss you

I miss you, too

Please stay behind in line 3

Look after Simona and the baby

I know

And look after Mathis

Especially him
