It sounds so easy: to be yourself.

But isn't it actually, like, the hardest thing in the world?

Everyone has these expectations of you,

and you try to meet them to make sure that everyone likes you.

That's exactly what you're so fucking afraid of.

That they stop liking you.

Because of the way you are.

Hey, there you are.

You look amazing.

Thanks.

That's an amazing dress.

It's my mother's.

Come on, let's go dance.

Huh? Come on. What are you waiting for?

-Let's go, come on. -Hey, wait, wait, wait! My shoes.

Guys, here he is!

-Hannes, where have you been? -Look how great he looks.

No idea.

Well, actually, they're pretty relaxed, but,

SATURDAY 22:11

I just sort of want to do my own thing, and not always...

do what other people say.

Just be myself.

-Hey, what was that for? -It didn't help, did it?

-No. -Shit.

-No, now I feel sick. -Sorry.

Do you also feel sick?

No, not at all.

You should never be afraid to be yourself.

Yeah, sure.

Will you promise me that?

Yeah.

I'm going to check on Laura.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll be right there.

Hannes. Great party, right?

-Yeah, you think so? -Are you happy?

Do you want a drink?

Yes, thank you.

Look up there.

Oh, no. How are you getting them down?

No idea. I have to think about it.

Well, it's not going to be easy.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

Hey, so, which of the girls here are you into?

No, wait, let me guess.

You're into Chiara, right?

-Am I right? -Who's Chiara?

-You're kidding me. -No.

Seriously?

Well, it's just...

-that I prefer brunettes. -Hannes. Come on!

Ass or tits?

-Both? -Say which.

Hannes, it's one or the other.

-Which one? -Well...

-Tits. -I knew it, Hannes. To tits!

Hey, what are you two talking about?

-About you, of course. -Sure, right.

What are you really talking about?

-Boobs. Soccer... -Right.

Cars.

We're going to go dance now, right?

No.

Come on!

What? No, man, it's brand new!

Want some help?

SUNDAY 04:04

Still here? I thought everyone had left.

No idea.

I must've passed out in your bed.

Can I crash here?

My bus isn't coming for two hours.

Yeah, sure.

Thank you.

You're really sweet.

What's wrong? Don't you think I'm pretty?

Yeah, of course.

So what's the problem?

I'll be right back.

Let me help you.

Sorry, I'm just nervous.

Your first time?

What? No!

We don't have to if you don't want to. You know that.

I do want to.

I like you better as a woman.

Hey!

I have to say, I thought you didn't look half bad as a woman.

No one's ever said anything that nice to me before.

Really?

Breakfast?

Breakfast.

Breakfast.

Give me a light, Daniel.

Come on, Sina.

What do you think of him?

Do you know his good night story?

No.

Okay, listen.

He was dating Ezra last year,

-from the year below us. -Yeah.

He's sleeping at her house for the first time.

Thing is, he's a sleepwalker.

That night, he has to go to the bathroom. He's asleep.

Loses...

his sense of direction.

And doesn't go into the bathroom but into...

-her parents' bedroom. -No way. No way.

He apparently thought that Ezra's father was the toilet...

-You're kidding me! -He pissed right on his face.

-You're kidding me! -I swear.

It's so nasty.

-Can you imagine? -What did her dad do?

He was thrilled.

He had a little drink, then he started to gargle it.

Okay.

What would you rather do?

Drink Philipp's piss once, a nice, big glass of it.

You could gargle it or whatever. Or...

drink the water from sausage jars for a year.

-You're really disgusting, man. -One or the other.

-Then sausage water. -And I'm the disgusting one?

Be broke for the rest of your life, or not have Laura in your life.

Be broke for life. Easy.

What's it like to love someone so much?

Terrible.

Terrible?

Yeah, you, like,

suddenly have something to lose.

It's scary.

Really scary.

Come.

Where are you going?

To get some sausage water from the cafeteria.

I'm not drinking that crap.

-You'll drink sausage water. -No.

Sausage water on the rocks.

We're more or less the same height, about 180 centimeters.

I'm 183 centimeters.

Gigantic!

183 centimeters.

Okay, good.

The first level is just to warm up. Should I start it?

Okay, I'm pressing "start." Here it goes.

Hey, so how'd you land this job?

One of my mom's friends owns the place.

So I help him out twice a week.

And it's actually really cool.

-Should I speed it up? -Yeah.

-You look super lame. -Yeah, okay.

It's still... Okay, now we're on level two and there are eight levels.

-Yeah, sure. -A leisurely walk. All right, so...

-Maybe a little slower, don't you think? -Slower?

-Are you kidding? -I pressed the minus button.

-I pressed minus. -Hey.

-Mira, do it! -Yeah!

-I'm pressing. -Now...

I can't get off. Slow it down, Mira!

-Hey! Slow it down! -Sorry.

Oh, my God, slow it down!

I did, but...

Get off of it!

-Jump off. -Slow it down.

I'm so sorry.

I didn't know... I was pressing on the minus button. I swear.

What's going on here?

-I got to remember that lever. -My first...

-near-death experience. -Yeah.

But, I mean, it's also good.

-Yes. -We had fun, we both had a laugh.

Don't tell anyone, or no one will want to come here anymore.

Dude, what's going on here?

-Yeah, it was Hannes' first time. -Oh, boy.

You want to be a sprinter or what?

You almost killed him.

-Yeah. You really almost did. -Mira.

Can you come here?

-And bring the first-aid kit. -Oh, shit.

Have fun, Mira!

Hey, dude, you got to come lift weights with me.

Build up a little muscle.

This crap just makes you thinner. Are you in pain or what?

Yeah, I'm fine, I'm fine.

Hey, relax, would you?

I am relaxed.

But really relax.

Dude, come on, you can do it!

You got to do some stretching before you work out,

or you'll look like my grandpa.

-A little less pressure. -Yes.

Okay. Right here?

Yeah.

Loosen up a bit, loosen up.

-What's wrong? -I got to go.

-You just got here. -Yeah, but I have to...

-Come on! -No, I just have...

-Where to? -I'll see you tomorrow.

All right, now defend yourself!

Is that all you got?

Defend yourself!

So, is that all you got?

Fuck, man!

Are you a homo or what?

Say something! Say something, man!

Fuck you!

Where are you?

Yeah, okay.

Yeah. See you soon.

There.

-Over there? -Yeah.

Daniel really loves you.

Yeah, I know.

And you?

Do you love him too?

Of course. Why do you ask?

Do you love him more than Oli?

What's that supposed to mean?

Why would you ask that?

I'm sorry.

-Can we... -Do you know what's this Sunday?

First anniversary of Oli's death.

You want me to compare the two of them right now?

Shit, I...

I forgot.

You've never been in love, right?

If you have, you'd know what it feels like to think about someone all the time.

Wondering if they're thinking about you right now too.

To want to spend every moment with that person.

Mornings, evenings, all the time.

Of course I love Daniel.

It still doesn't make it any easier to accept...

that Oli can't tell me what he's feeling and thinking anymore.

-Guys! -Laura, come on, just wait a second.

Are you two okay?

-Shit. -What?

I forgot the blanket.

Can you ask Daniel if he could bring his?

Hey, what's up with her?

-I... -I...

You first.

Well, I...

I wanted to talk to you about the other night.

I...

He's not answering.

-What's with you two? -Nothing.

Nothing.

Yeah, so, what was I saying?

About the other night.

Right, so, the other night,

I had a really good time with you.

But you know,

-after all that crap with my ex... -I'm coming to your place.

...I'm just not really ready for something serious, you know?

Yeah, sure. It's all right.

I want to focus on my exams. So it's all good.

-I'm leaving. -What? Where to?

-Daniel's. -Laura, wait.

We were supposed to hang out, right?

-Sorry, okay? -Laura, stay.

-Hey, Laura. -I'll see you tomorrow, okay?

Are you really leaving?

Did you two have a fight?

Can we please not talk about it?

Yeah, okay. I don't mind.

-Do you... -Do you...

Now you go first.

-Do you want to listen to music? -Yeah, definitely.

What were you going to ask?

If you wanted to make out.

-I think I'm going to go. -Okay, wow.

Let's just dance a little.

-Dance? -Join me.

-Come on. -No.

Come with me!

-Seriously? -Yes.

Man, I love this song!

I wish I could look like that.

Just don't think about it. Come here.

Yeah, the hips!

DANIEL Incoming video call

What's up?

Do you know how to take back a like on Tinder?

You can't do it in the free version.

-Shit. -Is she that hideous?

Who?

The girl you swiped right on.

-Right. No. I mean... -Yeah?

-It doesn't matter. -Huh?

What are you doing today?

I'm busting your ass right now, Hannes.

-So Laura told you. -Of course she told me.

Do you tell each other everything?

-Like everything, everything? -Yes. No secrets. You know that.

Not one?

All right. There is one secret. I can't tell it to you.

That you secretly watch lesbian porn?

No. There's something much worse than that.

Hannes, I hate Harry Potter.

With his magic wand and all that crap.

I think it's really, really awful.

Hey, I'm really sorry.

I...

I should've never brought up Oli.

No, don't worry, it's all right. It's just...

Everyone's going a little nuts over here.

But it's not like there's anybody at school holding a grudge.

We're a bit nervous that something could come up again.

Honestly,

you two, I think you two are the perfect couple.

Do you start in the second period tomorrow?

I wish.

Okay.

Dude, I've already busted your ass. So when Laura asks you,

tell her I told you off.

See you tomorrow in English class.

Okay, see you.

-That's completely wrong. -That's definitely wrong.

Everyone's getting together on Sunday.

WEDNESDAY 09:45

Fee, Mira, Laura,

Sina, and even Zoe is going to be there.

Via Skype.

In Istanbul. It'll be cool.

-What are you going to do? -Head down to the lake.

Want to come?

-I didn't even know Oli. -So? Sina didn't either.

Anyway, Oli would've liked you.

-You think so? -Yeah.

He liked total idiots.

What? You want to fight or what?

Help!

Shit.

What's up?

-Laura? Where are you? -Just finished German class. Why?

-Is everything okay? -Yeah, but why do you ask?

LAURA IS A SLUT!

Okay, she hasn't seen it yet.

Nobody's seen it yet. The paint is still wet.

Shit!

Okay, I'll go to the janitor and get something to clean it off.

-Hey! -Hey!

Hey. I saw you two.

What are you doing?

-I go to school here. -Huh? And what's up with Hannes?

He's waiting here for someone.

Who are you waiting for?

Sina.

Sina's inside.

Yeah, but I'm also waiting for someone else.

-Tell me what's going on. -Nothing.

No secrets.

I'm going to share it in the group.

I'll try to wash it off.

No.

But then the whole school is going to see it.

Yeah, but that's exactly what they want me to do. Run away.

But I'm not going to do it anymore.

Okay.

Come on.

Maybe it was that guy over there.

Yeah, or maybe her. She was into Oli.

I bet.

It was probably him.

-Yeah, or that guy over there. -Or her.

Let's agree that it could've been anybody.

Why can't they just leave me alone? I don't get it.

Somebody out there doesn't want Oli to be forgotten.

And that justifies all these mind games or what?

Any news?

-Nothing. -We didn't find anything either.

-Yeah. No idea. It could've been... -Anybody, yes.

"Slut" is also a compliment.

Nobody asked you, okay?

I mean, there's something about that word.

What are you trying to say?

Hey, calm down.

I didn't steal Oli's girlfriend.

-Piss off. -I didn't steal her from anybody!

Some people don't agree.

-Smoke, anyone? -No.

Fuck off.

-What's up with him? -He didn't mean it.

He meant it, all right?

What do you see in him?

Look, if you really got to know him...

You say that a lot.

What if it was him?

It wasn't him.

He only knew Oli by sight. At most.

So what are we going to do?

Let's hope it was just a stupid prank and it'll be over soon.

Exactly.

And if not?

Such bullshit.

It's a rolling contract.

WEDNESDAY 16:25

Exactly.

Yes.

Okay.

I understand. Have a good day. Bye.

Hey, I didn't think you'd step a foot in here again.

Really?

-To be honest, I didn't either. -There you go.

So what do you want to work on today? Strength or endurance?

I want to be able to defend myself.

Against who?

Nobody in particular.

-Don't worry. -Okay.

Let's do some strength training.

You go get changed. I'll get everything ready.

Hannes?

Can we talk?

It's nothing bad, I just want to ask you something.

-Okay? -Just real quick.

Okay.

Do you want to be my boyfriend?

-You're joking, right? -Yes. No, well...

We have a family gathering next week, and it's my grandmother's birthday, and...

-And they don't know that you... -Yes, exactly.

My parents do. But my grandma doesn't.

She's a little difficult.

So you want me...

-We should probably hold hands. -Okay.

You'll have to laugh at all my jokes, you could...

That's going to be very hard.

-You could push the hair out of my face. -Like this?

Then I could giggle and say, "Hannes, stop, that tickles."

Hey. Could you do that? You'd be doing me a huge favor.

-Really. Please. -You know, the problem is...

that you're just not my type.

Yeah. Very funny, Hannes.

Would you do that for me?

What can I say?

Grandmas love me.

Boo!

What are you doing here?

Did I catch you two doing something?

I got to go. See you in a second.

What are you doing?

-Just the usual. -Just the usual?

Want to work out together?

-No. -Come on!

Hey! It's a joke.

If I wanted to hit you, I'd have done it already.

-Wow. -So? We're going to work out?

You up for it? One on one.

Hannes, hey.

What?

Don't you want to know who wrote that on the wall?

As if you knew.

All right. Forget it.

Wait.

Who was it?

What do I get if I tell you?

I won't

tell Sina what you did to me in the locker room.

What I did to you? More like what you did to me.

-Asshole. -Long John.

Hey, Hannes. Calm down now. It was just a joke.

You really don't get jokes.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, so who was it?

Hello.

It was...

-Yeah, right. -Hey, you don't believe me?

It's always the person you least expect.

Mira is one of Laura's best friends.

I know the perpetrator. Not the motive.

This is definitely dirtier than ours.

Yeah. Life is also harder for girls.

Hey, do you have any new ideas on who might've written that graffiti?

No. You?

THURSDAY 10:38

No, me neither. Maybe it's somebody who knows you well.

A friend or something.

None of my friends would do something like that.

Neither Fee nor Sina.

Julia's in the eating disorder clinic.

Zoe certainly didn't get anyone to do it from Istanbul.

You guys keep in touch?

Yeah, almost every day on Insta.

What about Mira?

No. Definitely not.

Why not?

Because Mira would never do that.

She hates spreading rumors and talking shit about people.

You know, honestly, I've always envied you two a little bit.

The kind of thing you two have...

I've always wanted to have that.

That sort of...

bond.

Sounds stupid, doesn't it?

No, I know what you mean.

Okay...

Your first time in the girls' bathroom. How was it?

Better than expected.

Okay, you're definitely coming again.

Yeah.

-This is okay, right? -Sure, it's wearable.

It's, like, totally organic.

THURSDAY 15:56

Look at this.

I think this is your style.

Keep that because it gives you a bump, that's good.

That's right, it creates a bit of contrast!

So.

-You haven't found anything, have you? -No.

-I'm going to try all this stuff on. -Where is this from?

There.

Only five items, please.

Okay.

Can I help you?

Your girlfriend would love it.

What size is she?

-Sorry, who? -Your girlfriend.

Right.

Large.

-Large, yeah. -So a 16.

Would you like a matching nightgown to go with it?

No, no. It's all right, it's okay. I'd like to pay. I'm in a rush.

It's really a wonderful, flowy fabric.

This machine drives me crazy.

Mr. Sprung, please!

Helga, you've got to call Fritsche about this weird security tag remover.

Sure, will do!

What color are her eyes?

Blue.

-It'll look great on her. -Yeah.

-It'll be 39.95 euros. Cash or card? -Cash.

Okay.

Thank you.

Excuse me, your change?

Hello?

-Daniel? -Hello?

You're ready to go?

-What? -Are you ready to go?

I can't hear you very well.

Are you ready to go?

Wait, the service is a little spotty.

It's Laura, I have to talk to her.

Yeah. Wait.

Hannes?

Yeah?

-So did you find anything? -Yeah, I'll be out soon.

Let me see.

-Is everything okay? -Yes.

What are you doing in there?

I bet Brandenburg is going to win.

Who told you that? Sit down.

THURSDAY 21:11

Your brother? Hannes, did you say Brandenburg is winning?

I'm not cleaning the kitchen. Whose turn is it?

-Leon's, but... -It's not my turn. I did it yesterday.

Leon's going to bed after the race.

All right, okay, be quiet. They're starting. Watch.

Be quiet.

Fucked it up. No.

But that's the second one.

-Yeah. -The start was a bust? He's not half bad.

It's still not over.

It's a MATCH! ARIEL likes you too!

...making the next 250 meters.

The second leg of the race has begun.

They're troopers. That's how it's done.

Ariel Thanks for the like!

Hannes, who are you texting?

Put your phone away, you'll miss the race.

...right on its tail. Hessen has already accepted defeat.

No, it can't be! Come on!

Just row! Row. Come on! Row, row, row!

It's a...

I'm not into guys, sorry.

Man, it's a regatta, not a pleasure cruise.

-I'm shaking. -Me too.

Man, I should be sitting there in the middle.

-You and me both! -Yes, both of us.

They're not working together anymore.

Too bad. - Why? Cause you're so cute.

He's always one stroke behind.

-Sweetie, come on. -I also think Brandenburg is going to win.

Seriously?

Hey, what... Forget about it.

Hey, Hannes,

what did you do on Saturday? When Mom and I were away?

Saturday?

-Nothing, why? -You remember our rules, right?

-No parties... -Without us.

Why don't you follow them?

-I just had some friends over. -The rule?

No parties without you.

Exactly.

But that's just... Like, hey...

Look at that, they want to compete at the Olympics, I can't believe it.

You can go get ready and off to bed.

I can't believe it. Brandenburg actually won.

ARIEL Would you want to meet up?

I'll have to load the dishwasher now.

-You do that. -Told you Brandenburg was going to win.

Brush your teeth and go to bed.

What are you smiling at?

Go to bed too.

You have school tomorrow.
