[METALLIC BEATS REPEATING REGULARLY]

You've grown, Tronte.

Do I know you?

I knew your mother.

But that was long ago.

[BREATHING AUDIBLY]

You take after her.

Your eyes.

Who are you?

I don't have a name.

I was never given one.

But back then it was me who chose what to call you.

[METALLIC BEATS INTENSIFY]

It belonged to your mother.

I think you should have it now.

I've got to go.

I do. It's gorgeous.

I haven't felt like myself all week.

You look pale.

Maybe you should see a doctor.

Will you come back here?

I... I don't know yet. It's...

It might be best for me to stay home tonight.

Katharina...

I'm glad you decided to stay here.

In Winden.

You're beautiful.

SENSATIONAL NUDE PHOTOS

[GIRL GIGGLING]

Look at her expression.

Where did you get it?

- It was in my father's things. - Ines, Claudia. We're already late.

My father says you don't learn anything at school.

You learn from life.

Why don't they have these with men in them?

- That's not fair, is it? - You're crazy.

Ever seen one?

- One that's not your father's? - Ines!

Jana, come on.

What did it look like?

A little odd.

Like it wasn't a part of him.

Tronte?

I think he's kind of weird.

Has his mother returned?

It's strange, don't you think? To just vanish like that.

POLICE

Doris.

What brings you here?

I wanted to talk. And Kahnwald let me in here.

Where have you been? I thought you left early to write reports.

It's, um...

Well...

There's something that came up.

Today...

I was washing clothes and I found something.

Here. It was with her blouses. I thought it could be important.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC BUILDING]

She said her husband was with the church.

And maybe it's just a coincidence,

but the minister who disappeared at the same time...

his name is Hanno Tauber.

H.T.

WINDEN WELCOMES ITS NEW MINISTER HANNO TAUBER (42) FROM VECHTA

I...

I thought her husband was dead.

It's three months now.

You don't just leave your child alone without saying a word.

You should go home. We'll take care of it.

Egon, I know something's going on here!

Why would she have left all this behind?

Who knows what goes on inside a woman's head.

Agnes, you have chosen the correct side.

Don't forget that.

[OMINOUS MUSIC BUILDS]

UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN'S BODY FOUND IN WOODS

[ADAM] You must give this to Claudia.

When it's time.

To live is a gift.

For those who know how to use it.

You'll tell Martha then?

What the origin really is?

[SWOOSHING SOUND]

[OMINOUS MUSIC CRESCENDOES]

[GASPING]

After all these years I've wondered...

why you abandoned us in 1888.

Why you gave us the material to create it...

and then just disappeared.

Who would've thought 33 years later

it would be us who gave you the order.

Magnus.

I'm so sorry.

It doesn't matter anymore.

Adam is waiting for us.

[HISS, THUD]

[OLDER MARTHA] This is your future.

Thirty-three years from your yesterday.

[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYS]

[MARTHA] That door in the cave...

What is that?

It is a path that connects past and future.

Why are these names crossed out?

It means that they will die.

All of them.

- "All". What does that mean? - In two days.

The apocalypse in his world.

It also happens in ours.

This is not real.

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

You're not real.

[OLDER MARTHA] This is your future.

If you...

If you both fail to stop the apocalypse.

[MUSIC CRESCENDOES]

[HISS, THUD]

[CLICKING]

You came recently to Winden?

- Three months ago. I like it here. - [CLOSING ZIPPER]

It's less complicated than where I come from.

Well, that may be about to change.

You're pregnant.

At your age, a pregnancy is not without its risks.

You should take care of yourself. No strenuous activity.

[BREATHING AUDIBLY]

That can't be right.

Listen.

Some gifts come into our lives unexpectedly.

And yet they're still gifts.

[KNOCKING]

[DOOR OPENS]

Mrs. Doppler.

How can I help you?

I would like to know if any news has come in.

Sadly...

Sadly, no.

Unless Helge decides to tell us where he was...

That is...

who he was with,

we're not going to get anywhere with this.

This isn't about Helge.

This is about the missing minister.

If nobody looks after the church...

it leaves the door open for the devil.

You knew the man?

The minister?

Did he...

Have you ever seen him in the company of a woman?

How dare you ask that.

[MENACING MUSIC PLAYS]

I want you to find the man.

Hanno Tauber.

[CHURCH BELL RINGING]

[DOOR CREAKS LOUDLY]

[CLOSES LOUDLY]

Sorry to disturb you.

[TWO METALLIC BEATS SOUND]

Are you the new minister?

I used to be.

But that was long ago.

The thing is, I'm looking for someone.

Um... My husband and I are...

Our daughter is very talented. Last winter, we sublet the guest room.

So we could save up money for Claudia, for when she goes to college.

The lady who lived with us... Well, she vanished, three months ago.

Her husband was a man of God.

She said her husband was dead,

but, I don't know why, I just felt like that wasn't true.

And the man who worked here vanished at the same time, so...

What if he was her husband,

and she went back to him?

I don't think she liked him very much.

Not all human bonds

are the result of fondness.

Well, it's about the child. It's her boy, and...

I think a boy needs his mother.

Each lie we tell

comes at a cost to the human soul.

[METALLIC BEATS REPEATING]

I don't understand.

You're not interested in the boy.

You're interested in the woman.

I don't think you understood what I...

The ways of the heart cannot be explained.

It wants what it wants.

Just ask your husband.

He'll tell you the same thing.

My husband?

Haven't you asked yourself why he's been leaving the house so early?

And working so late?

What if there's another woman there?

[METALLIC BEATS SOUND]

It's difficult for us to let go...

of our deepest desires, inside.

[DOOR CREAKS OPEN AND CLOSES]

- [WIND WHISTLES] - [BIRDS SING]

Hello, Tronte.

Hello.

What's that?

It's wonderful.

- Why weren't you at school today? - [MELANCHOLY MUSIC PLAYS]

What are you doing here?

I like it here.

It's so...

desolate.

I like to write, you know?

Stories.

[CHUCKLES]

You have a nice smile.

POLICE

[QUIETLY] Why are you here?

[LOCKS DOOR]

You can't just show up here.

What if someone sees you?

Is everything all right?

I'm pregnant.

[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYS]

I thought you were taking precautions.

[SCOFFS QUIETLY]

Is it mine?

Is it yours?

What do you think I do all day long? Fuck around?

Do you think it was me who chose all of this?

Living in this shithole forever? Huh?

I thought you were different, but you're all the same.

You all think you own the world. That you can take what you want.

You eat and fuck and think that you're God.

Wherever you go, always the same smug fucking assholes.

You don't know what you're saying.

[SIGHS]

It's best if I drive you home now.

[MAN, NEXT ROOM] The coal industry has him around its finger.

We'll submit another building permit request.

[LIVELY MUSIC PLAYING QUIETLY]

Nuclear power is the future.

And the future cannot be stopped.

- I don't care what the mayor says! - [PHONE SLAMS DOWN]

Oh, Claudia.

[DOOR CLOSES]

Look at you.

All grown up, aren't you?

A real lady now.

Pretty. Smart as a whip.

Helge will be pleased to see you.

And naturally, you'll be rewarded for your services.

That's too much to offer.

I've some advice for you, Claudia. A lesson.

If you really want something, then you must take it.

Things will never happen on their own.

Thank you.

What exactly is the coal industry paying you

to block the plans for the nuclear plant?

I have no idea what you're saying.

Did Doppler send you?

Do you know what gold cannot get you?

The future.

More precisely, your future.

We think we're all immortal,

but in reality there's often only one heartbeat...

separating us from the hereafter.

What do you want from me?

WINDEN BUILDING AUTHORITY

The building permit for the nuclear plant. This is...

[METALLIC BEATS CONTINUE]

To the future.

[HISS, THUD]

[SIGHS]

[OLDER MARTHA] You can change it. You both can change it.

The barrels at the nuclear plant, they start the apocalypse.

You must prevent them from being opened.

What do we do then?

Eve said there's a way to undo this knot.

That there's a way to let Martha live. That's my Martha!

She lied to you.

There is no way to save both worlds.

You must choose one of them.

The apocalypse, in two days...

it can get stopped here.

You both have to stop it.

They can live. All of them.

Mikkel...

can live.

Isn't that what you wanted?

But you'll have to let her go.

Your Martha.

Your world.

You've seen what becomes of you there.

What you'll do there.

What Adam will do.

[MARTHA] You've both lost it.

I'll go to the house and wake up in my bed

and realize this was just a shitty dream.

Jonas, this is exactly what you wanted.

You and Martha.

In this world the two of you can work.

Martha!

[PANTING]

[GASPS]

- [JONAS] Wait! - [GRUNTS]

[JONAS] Hey.

- Hey. - [MARTHA GASPING RAPIDLY]

[CALMING SLIGHTLY]

That they're all doomed?

[PANICKED BREATHS]

That's crazy.

I'm crazy. That's...

Trust me, I know exactly what it feels like.

It's all true?

[WISTFUL MUSIC PLAYS]

All the things that she said are real?

But I know there's a way.

A way to make all of this right again.

And I want to continue looking for that way.

I think she does too.

The Martha who brought me here.

So you have no idea where your mom is?

And the man earlier today...

You think that could be your father?

My mother didn't talk much about him.

She had said...

he was just bad.

For a while I was in a home.

What's it like in a home?

[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYS]

[TRONTE] Can you keep a secret?

That man, at the cave...

I don't even want to know if he is my father.

And I'm glad that my mother is gone.

You can have it if you want.

[YOUNG CLAUDIA] Jana?

What are you doing here?

Didn't you go home hours ago?

We're already late. Mom will be waiting with dinner.

See you around.

Maybe tomorrow.

What do we do now?

Don't worry.

I won't keep it.

[LIGHTS CIGARETTE]

Why do some people get to have it all?

And others get nothing?

Hm?

Why does destiny preordain so much for some and not for others?

[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYS]

All my life, I've been trying to hold onto things that I just can't.

But now I finally understand.

I need no one.

None of you.

I think you should go now.

Last year...

Daniel told me about it.

She does it properly.

I'm sorry.

This job and...

Well, I'm sorry.

I know what you've done.

With that girl.

What do you mean?

I want a divorce.

What... What are you saying right now?

We should have done it earlier, really, but I...

I thought...

I don't know what I thought, I...

All the secrets we have, it's...

not how I want to live.
