'The truth is...'
Hey, this thing doesn't seem to work.
Why?
It doesn't believe that you made 1000 women happy, does it?
Hey, that's true. - Yeah, yeah.
Well, almost.
Man, Andi. I booked you to help me carry my stuff, not for you to rummage through my things.
You know what? Take it and go play somewhere else.
Say, do you plan to live here permanently?
Yeah. At least I won't have to run to the flatshare for every bit of crap.
I was just asking.
When you're in love, you hear the strangest things.
'Give vent to your feelings' and 'Be true to love' Bla bla bla...
Could I possibly have come up with anything more stupid than my dumb emotional outburst?
Morning. - Hey. - Morning.
Do you guys still need help?
You should rather save your energy.
Dana kissed Hagen yesterday.
Oh.
So what?
It was just a short outburst of joy.
It doesn't mean anything to me, and Hagen doesn't get it anyway.
He's just interested in the racing team and in horses.
Just like me.
Beeeep.
My psychotherapist says that men are more sensitive than you think.
We just show it differently.
Beep.
If Hagen would've realized for only a second that his wife's little sister is in love with him, then...
He would've already come over here and would've had a go at me.
Morning.
Dana, can I talk to you for a sec, please?
Great! That's what I get out of it. So much for 'honesty is the best policy'.
Hagen realized what's going on with me and will bite my head off now.
Ms. Linse, it was delicious as usual.
Why didn't you just let Hagen keep on talking?
He started out so serious and made such strange pauses.
It's about his racing team.
I was nervous.
How could I've known that he only wanted to talk to me to give me a chance.
That's so stupid. I even started apologizing.
By now he must know what's going on with me.
Hello!
What's going on with you, sis? Do I have to worry?
No. Dana's just a bit nervous because she...
Because she has to train Dionysos in front of Hagen.
It's always about horses.
I thought that I'd be the most important thing for Hagen, at least at the beginning of our marriage.
Right now everything's at stake. We have to win the derby in order to save the racing team.
You can't let Hagen down.
Where is he anyway?
He's in town. Taking care of something.
Ah, okay then... Bye.
I'm starting to get the feeling that everybody knows because it's written on my forehead in bold:
"I've got a crush on Hagen."
Dana, I don't think that Hagen... - She's going to hate me.
My whole family will outcast me. I will lose my job.
And I'd deserve it.
Hagen's giving you a chance to prove yourself. I don't think he noticed anything.
Don't drive yourself crazy.
Dana, this is a chance of a lifetime!
To be a jockey in a derby. That's what you've always dreamed of!
So, concentrate on yourself and Dionysos now, and on nothing else. Okay?
I'll try.
Now eat something.
Okay. Now, the question of all questions.
This is so stupid.
Did you steal my yoghurt this morning? Yes or no?
No.
You owe me 79 cent.
Does this help with your therapy stuff in any way?
There are people who make an effort to improve themselves.
Do you make all your *** desires come true?
Yes.
Did you just catch yourself lying?
That's just because I asked the question myself.
Then I'm so nervous that the thing beeps all on its own.
If you're serious, you really need therapy.
Man, there must be honest answers to all these questions.
Why don't you just tell Helena about them.
Because then she'll be even more angry with me.
Andi, the sessions aren't just about making Helena happy.
It's about what you want, too.
I know that.
We'll do some rounds in the hall, then she'll make 1.5 outside.
Have they already made less than 1.40?
Dana already made the distance in 1.15. Right, Dana?
Will we make 1.30 now?
If that's enough for you.
Don't risk too much. This isn't a race yet.
Is everything alright with you? - Why?
Well, you both seem to be a bit nervous.
That's how it should be. The tension before the start is absolutely normal.
Stay calm. Okay?
Easy for you to say.
After all, I have to prove to you here and now that we can do it.
Don't try too hard. 1.30 will do.
Today isn't your last chance.
Okay.
Are you ready? - Mhm.
I'll head on over to the race track.
Oh, and...
Just pretend I'm not there. Hm?
Do you know what's the good thing about racing?
It's over within a few minutes.
And no matter how it ends, you'll know where you stand.
Hang on. I don't understand it.
Hagen says he doesn't love you.
He has it verified by a lie detector, and then claims that the machine isn't working.
What's wrong with that?
The thing works tiptop.
Maybe he just thought it was too silly.
Yeah, but what did he expect? That the machine would beep because he was lying?
He's not in love with me, okay?
Then you created a paradox.
Folks, when a liar says he lies, does he tell the truth? Yes!
The other way around, when Hagen tells the truth, but at the same time claims the machine isn't working,
then something's wrong.
That's too abstract for me.
Were your times really that bad?
I've ruined everything for myself, while Hagen gave me the biggest chance of my life.
Pull yourself together. Ask him for another chance.
You don't have to talk about anything else anymore.
But WE do.
Oh. Helena.
Now. In private.
Do you sleep here?
Uh... Yeah.
Just temporarily. I hope that's okay.
Stress?
Taking a relationship break.
If there's any way I can help, tell me.
I'll manage. I...
I just miss him so much.
Then do something about it.
But what?
I'm scared, okay? And I have no idea where to go from here.
But now I've moaned at you long enough. Cheers.
Cheers.
Yeah, sure, Dana doesn't have all that much experience, but she and Dionysos are a good team.
Nobody knows this horse as well as she does. And her times speak for themselves.
Blowing the trial round was an exception.
But why?
I even thought that she was in love with me.
And?
What "and"?
I made a complete fool of myself!
Dana knows that she has to win.
So? We won't find a better jockey anytime soon.
Bye!
Bye. Thanks.
You know, sometimes I think I should just quit this job,
and then get away from Marlene and Hagen.
What about your dream of being a jockey?
Would you have a chance somewhere else?
I don't have one here, either, because I don't have my feelings under control.
Hello, Olli. - Hey.
Hagen.
It's great that I catch you here.
To put it in a nutshell, I want you to ride the race on Dionysos.
But...
I realized that you can handle Dionysos better than anybody else.
Please, Dana. You're exactly the right one for this job.
No, I can't! It's...
I saw your times in practice. Today was an exception.
The practice times proved that I don't have my feel...
...my nerves under control.
You can practice.
I'm not sure whether, in such a small period of time, I can get the optimal time and myself under control.
There's too much at stake! The existence of the stud farm! The peace in the family!
Hagen, I'm not the right one for this job!
That's my last word.
[People who love lose their ambition too fast.]
