Hey!
Everything okay?
What happened?
Giselle is in love with Thore and wants him back.
Come here.
Everything's going to be fine.
Nothing will be fine.
My sister and I are in love with the same man.
That's it.
I'm no competition.
Your plan to get Thore out of your head didn't work, did it?
I really tried, but it just won't work.
Have you talked to your sister about it?
I can't tell her that.
She's really in love.
I've never seen her like this.
She even talks about settling down and until now, the most important thing to her was her next job and nothing else.
And now you want to be the martyr?!
But you don't have to do that.
What do you mean?
I'm the absolute expert on how to get men out of my head.
You don't have to suffer if you don't want to.
And then I even crawled around on the floor in front of him.
I don't know what’s going on with me.
Okay, there's only one solution.
Get started!
What is this?
Well, it calms you to sort things. So, get started.
Yes, but I'm no 'Rainman' or anything like that.
I'm not going to count these things now.
Yes, but you could sort these things and then put them back in the glass.
And? Is it working yet?
Maybe it's good that Thore now knows how you feel about him.
Do you really believe that?
At least you now know that he's not interested in Giselle.
But she's interested in him.
I will certainly not fight with my sister over a guy.
Besides the fact that I wouldn't have a chance in the first place.
You know what?
I think you have a completely false impression of yourself.
Oh really?
Oh really!
You know what I see when I look at you?
I see a beautiful, young, intelligent, humorous woman...
... who sorts cocktail sticks.
Well, great!
But seriously...
I'm sure Thore will soon see how special you are, too.
You don't really believe that.
Thore is...
And I'm...
It just doesn't fit.
Anyway, he and Giselle had been a couple before.
Would you stop talking about Giselle?
But he would never decide in my favor.
And what if he did?
That's nonsense!
But very sweet nonsense. Thanks.
What do I owe you for that?
Oh, the therapy was a freebie.
But if you really want to do me a favor...
I need someone for tonight's shift.
Deal!
Deal!
Showtime!
What? Showtime?
Thore's coming.
When?
Well, now. Outside.
Let him come. I don't care.
What if he's coming because of you?
He's not.
He doesn't even know I'm working tonight.
I just agreed to it earlier.
Okay, then it's simply a stupid stroke of destiny.
Stupid stroke of destiny?
Yup! Which needs to be embraced now.
Olli, you can't 'embrace' the stroke of destiny.
Purely linguistically, that's not even possible. -- Yes, yes, yes. Come here.
One moment.
What...?
Good.
I will most certainly not wear my hair like this.
Yes, you most certainly will. Today we'll show what we're made of.
No, I...
Caro! It's too late. Thore will be here any minute. So, be nice, smile. Be charming. Let's go.
Oh, Schulz!
It's like 'The Hare and the Hedgehog' with you. Everywhere I go...
...you're already there. Crazy!
I work here.
I know.
What can I get you?
You've done something to your hair.
Dyed?! You got it cut!
It's down.
That's what I said.
Anyway, you look –
What do you want to drink?
I... err... I'd like a glass of milk and... errr... and some champagne for...
... for... oh, here she comes.
Hey, I didn't know you were working today.
Hi!
Your hair looks great!
Have you already ordered something to drink?
Yes, yes... I got some milk and for you...
Coming right up!
So, how's it going?
Pretty good, actually.
Just a bit retro.
Retro?
Yes, the last time I had to make such an effort for a man was when I was 16 in some disco in Wuppertal.
The 'Tropic'.
Yes, the 'Tropic'!
Exactly.
And the guy's name was...
... Günther or Gerhard or something?
Günther. He was my dancing partner.
Yes, Günther. Exactly!
He was your dancing partner?
I completely forgot.
But you didn't...
No!
You didn't miss anything, to be honest.
Lucky me.
But I'll still need some time for Thore.
Do you think the two of you will get together?
Of course!
Why not?
He'll just need some more time to get over the hurt from back then.
Or do you think there's someone else in his life? Another woman?
No, not that I'm aware of.
But you would tell me if that were the case?
Of course.
I've really missed having a good friend such as you.
No way!
That's the song I always danced to with Thore in the 'Limelight' in New York ten years ago.
Heyyy! Our song, baby! -- Yes!
You doing okay?
If you want to... you can leave. I'll manage the rest by myself.
Really?
Sure. There's hardly anything going on now.
Do you need help? -- No!
