All language subtitles for BLAUMACHER 2017 E02

[Frank] All I ever wanted
was the life I have now.

And now that it's here...

Carmen and I have known
each other for 20 years.

-Don't you notice anything?
-The ratatouille is burning.

[Frank] I thought sex
didn't matter to us anymore.

-You're just my affair.
-I love you!

[shot]

-Who are you?
-Great piece!

Did you want to kill yourself?

-Or did you kill who?
-What a crap!

So a cry for help.

[Frank] I don't have the strength
to give the family pure wine.

[Sascha] You've been hanging
around here for a week?

-My name is Frank.
-I'm Sasha.

[Sascha] I don't want to
be like you or my parents.

-[Frank] It's not true.
-[Shot]

Double suicide.

-And why?
-Is a long story.

It was close today, huh?

[Frank] Will we see each other tomorrow
so that none of us get any stupid ideas?

[melancholic music]

[Male voice] October 31, 1984.

At the age of 66, India's
Prime Minister, Indira

Gandhi, falls victim to an
attack by her own bodyguards.

["Candle In The Wind" by Elton John]

The world of men will be at your feet.

If you use this lip pump to
achieve a confident, full-lipped,

beautiful woman...

[melancholic music]

[Beeping]

[Rustle]

[Beeping]

Sasha?

[Beeping]

-Sascha, don't do anything nonsense!
-Be quiet!

-And say “please”! Otherwise I'll go crazy.
-Let me in, please.

[Beeping]

If they spread...

Where is her guy?
She manages everything alone.

[Frank] Six at once?
Shot himself.

Some women work their
asses off for their country.

Then out of frustration
they get shot by some idiots.

Or they run from
one idiot to the

next and their
driver hits them dead.

But if a fart crosses your
path, shotgun immediately.

So no woman has ever had
to complain because of me.

We have a quota in the company.

["Le destin t'a donné ta
chance" by Dany Brillant]

How do you imagine your future?

Hmm. I'm graduating.
And then they can cross me.

Then I move out.
To Berlin or abroad.

Then I reinvent myself forever.

-[Woman] Who do you mean by “them”?
-I guess she means me.

What do you think your mother wants?

That I become like them,
that I do the same shit.

I hate her though. I hate them.

I ask myself why
I am the way I am.

Because I don't want to be like her.

So fitness-obsessed,
like there's something

you can do about connective
tissue and gravity.

She no longer has any
connection to her inner self.

Fasted everything away and did Pilates stretching.

If she puts oat milk on my
table again, I'll get a cow.

[Frank] You don't
need to work part-time.

[Carmen] I need something for myself too.

[Frank] All right. But I
can't slow down in the company.

[checked off] Independent
work is of course a given.

Flexibility is the most important thing for me.

Creating added value, that's what it's all about.

Art is a synergy of
selling and buying.

head and stomach.

intelligence and heart.

If that's not there, it sucks.

[Laugh]

[Frank] How did the application go?

I wasn't at all. You're right.
That's not for me.

Well, that's enough.

What? Introspection makes you hungry.

Eat calmly.
Breakfast is the most important meal.

Can I speak to my
daughter alone for a moment?

-What's bothering you so much now?
-Please.

-It would be nice if...
-Please! Out.

That was super embarrassing.

You are always like that.

You don't have to justify
yourself for what you want.

Not with me.

It's not all dream concert.

There are things...

I don't think I've
always made free decisions.

The language school.

Or maybe even your father.

-Are you saying you didn't want me?
-You were planned to the minute.

I'm proud of you.

And I like you just the way you are.
And your brother too.

You lie.

You can't like
me and this freak.

Did you find it in the trash or something?

I have no choice. At
my age, my plate is so

full that there isn't
much room for maneuver.

I have to hold our life
together and organize it.

But I don't want
you to be like me.

You have to differentiate yourself. That's good for you!

Mmm. Then I'll isolate
myself and go to school, okay?

What is the?

It's cold down there in the evenings.
They need a nest.

Why are you feeling bad?

Don't just blame the evils
of the world on all men.

-What I did for Carmen.
-Tell me.

Justify yourself.

I had the company's old
training center expanded.

-I spared no expense...
-I got it. I'll summarize this.

Your children start school,
your wife complains dissatisfiedly.

In her panic, she starts
something shaky that doesn't make

a profit, but is a great
write-off for your tax purposes.

From an emancipatory perspective:
lifelong missionary position. Thanks.

As hot as Prince Charles.

-That made her happy.
-In your patriarchy, yes!

Also finance a language school for me.
I'm going to Harvard too!

And another thing. Courtney Love
didn't kill your fucking Kurt Cobain!

But at least he scored!

-[Frank] Yes, just kill yourself too.
-Kill yourself!

[melancholic piano music]

-Have you gotten yourself back together?
-No.

I just won't say anything more about it.

-And now?
-We could do something.

If you say, “We’re
doing something exciting,”

those are always
the shittiest days.

My mother's car
needs to be inspected.

[Honking, shouting in the street]

[Man] Thomas Müller, hello?

Thomas, I want sex, now.

Carmen?

Who else?

Okay, I'm coming down.

And then? Just think about it!

[buzzer]

Wow!

[Sascha] How hot is your mother?

Was.

The paint is original.

Please be careful.

Apart from my mother and me,
no one has ever driven the car.

Compensation for patriarchy.

Reverse gear and let it come slowly.

[the engine does not start]

[the engine does not start]

[Thomas] That was annoying.

Do you know why?

Because I massaged your rectus
femoris opposite your adductor longus.

Haha.

Do you want something too?

My brother says
you're too old for me.

But I always say: You are only
as old as you think in your head.

Umberto Eco for example, yes?

-The man is in top shape, head-wise.
-He's dead.

Do you still want children?

This is Charlie.

And Chaplin.

Charlie Chaplin, huh?

Yes, because they are so funny.

I thought because of black and white.

Nope.

[Carmen] Great views.

Here. Pet him so
he gets used to you.

[Purr]

-[Meow]
-He has cancer.

I pay three hundred a
month for the medication.

But then his hair starts falling out. Reading
Umberto Eco aloud doesn't help either.

He's totally spinning his wheels.

It's all in his head.

Do you know what I do? Here.

Hm?

He dies. This is bad, I know.

But you know what happens to
you, that just means one thing ends.

And a new one begins.

Nothing ends here.
And nothing new begins here.

But Carmen, I have perspectives.

Do you know? People call me
out, for example from Hamburg.

They want to do my program.
I also have a website.

I'll have one from Monday.
These are my visions.

Frank and I, we've settled in.

That's not particularly
good, but it's not bad either.

But that's not enough, Carmen.

But.

Because...

...here, we...

That does not work.

Ending!

Is it because of Chaplin, because you
think I'm not free in the head for you?

[the door slams shut]

Frank?

[she lets out air]

[she takes a deep breath]

Frank?

[a car engine won't start]

[the engine starts]

[Sasha cheers]

[Sascha] Yay! Great sleigh!

[Sasha cheers]

[Carmen] Oh God.

[Scream]

[driving, booming music]

[spherical music]

[melancholic piano music]

[Frank] She had a sun allergy.

That's why we always
drove with the top closed.

[Sascha] Did you have a crush on her?

[Frank] Maybe. Maybe just because
my father treated her like shit.

It felt like he bought her a new

convertible or sports
car every other year.

He must have had a
guilty conscience.

This is so fucked up, hey.

And? Are you living through it?
Are you treated now?

-My eyes are crying.
-Great.

How is your mother's
sports car different?

-from your wife's language school?
-Touché.

["Lonely Boy" by The Black Keys]

[she sings a melody]

[loud music]

Come on, give it here.
You're messing up my upholstery.

Do not be like that.
I pay attention. I promise.

A perfect moment. Nothing bothers you.

-[Tires screeching]
-Seriously?

-Crap!
-[Sasha sighs]

[Police siren]

-Oh shit!
-Why are you throwing that thing out too?

-Are you crazy?
-What was I supposed to do?

Don't think I didn't recognize
what kind of can that was.

I was trained to capture
details at lightning speed.

Oh. If that's not the bubble bunny.

Men let you do their
dirty work for them.

Just don't imagine anything.

-Uh... Could we sort it out like that?
-Exit!

Other side, because of traffic.

Come on! Hoppeldihop!

Come on, get out.

[Radio message]

Eleven fourteen for headquarters.
It's still taking time for the pizza.

I just say: Blasehase
back on the road.

[Man, on radio] Thank you.

Drink driving. Bubble bunny there.

-Well, do you want to broadcast that too?
-[Moan]

-Opportunistic pig!
-Are you crazy?

Put me down, Frank!

Carmen will kill me.

[Thing] That's good
when you're tired of life.

You annoy someone
until they do it for you.

She's good with you for
the language school alone.

Do you realize what this looks like?

Bubble bunny?

Would you like to enlighten me?

I was involved in an
accident and through certain

circumstances contributed
to the general amusement.

What kind of circumstances?

That's not funny.

Yes, am I laughing?

The airbag shoots out, slams into the
back of my head, and the flap closes.

You can imagine the rest.
That was the blowjob of my life.

Everyone has their car stories.

And... is that why
you're so into it?

Hey.

Come over here.

Come on. I don't bite.

Do not ever do that again.

I just wanted to see if there was anything there.

Is not it.

[Cell door]

[Woman] There are the two of them, Ms. Sporbert.

-We go.
-And the little one?

-No idea. It can rot here.
-Good idea.

Just one thing.

I wanted to apologize
to you for everything.

You are a strong woman.
Acting confidently in this

male-dominated profession
demands my utmost respect.

Mmm.

Anything else?

Having to admit to your colleagues
that you were beaten up by a girl

Wouldn't that be embarrassing?

Well, I mean really,
with the nose and stuff.

Wouldn't I have been a
much more worthy opponent?

-I work out.
-[Carmen] Frank.

What do you say? I'll take it all upon
myself, but let the little one out of the cell.

As far as I'm concerned, expect
a bribery attempt on top of that.

So only if you want.

-I gave this to you!
-There's only one problem, Mr. Sporbert.

They didn't hit me.

We go now.

You'll hear from the prosecutor.

Now wait a minute!

What else should I wait for now?

I have to go to the workshop.

You have to go to the loony bin.
What did you just do?

I was spontaneous.

-You hit a policewoman.
-Yes.

Are you still proud of it?

At least at the moment.

And what's going on with the child?

Are you planning on
coming home tonight?

Naturally.

Thuringian?

Open House.

Really something going on, huh?

Beautiful car.

-How much do you have here?
-Thuringian?

Euro.

Maybe 15,000 in the vault.

You can have it for 15,000.

But it is in 1A condition.

Then I add mustard.

[melancholic piano music]

I need another moment.

[melancholic music]

This is the opposite
of what I expected.

When I freak out like
that, I can't stand myself.

After all these years,
we can still talk.

Or?

I like it.

Thanks.

I'm an ass.

Actually only fair, you and the little one.

I don't even know
why I'm so upset.

It's nothing.

What are you thinking about now?

[lively, rhythmic music]

[Frank] Your curl, that was...

It was like Renate.

Are you thinking about your mother?

Yes.

Yes. Suddenly it all makes sense,
why it was such a match, you and me.

If we had asked ourselves
back then what our next 20 years

would look like, all this,
would you have wanted that?

I the...

That doesn't matter.

From one point on we just
filled in the crossword puzzle.

And now I'm starting to
wonder if maybe we just...

...secretly... fulfilling role models?

And what role do I play in this?
Your mother's reincarnation?

This is so humiliating.

But for both of us.

I only did what was necessary.

The house, the children.

Put back. I always backed down.

And when you touch me,
you think of your mother!

I thought you needed to vent.
I would have understood that.

But you...

You question everything, everything!

Say you just want
to fuck around a bit.

That would make everything so much easier.
