03x04 - Before you turn the key, I have one more thing to say

[bunniefuu]

[mother, in Dutch]

At home, Josi is different.

She is well behaved and very quiet.

That's why it's so strange

I understand, but it's not the first time

that this has happened.

[electronic music playing]

[inhales deeply]

Did something happen?

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

[menacing rock music playing]

Have you read Goethe's Faust?

It's read by every A Level student

in Germany,

who forget it when they leave school.

It's about good and evil.

Faust is this young, smart, talented guy,

but his professional and personal

life aren't great. He wants more.

[Moritz] Then the devil comes along.

He sells his soul and in exchange

he gets everything he wants.

The end.

I think so. I mean, I didn't finish it.

[Moritz] In any case, the message was: sometimes you have to do something bad

in order to achieve something good.

[daring music playing]

[panting]

[daring music continues]

[lorry horn blaring]

It's just empty carbohydrates.

You know how unhealthy that is, right?

- No amino acids, no minerals, nothing.

- [Lenny groans]

- Anyway, where's Sideshow Bob?

- Huh?

Waiting in the car.

He wanted me to keep an eye on the bag.

Lenny, tell me you have keys, yeah?

Yeah, I have 'em. You need to relax, man.

He's not gonna run away.

Lenny,

the guy is mad and he's a criminal.

Yeah.

TAKE PAINKILLERS!

I'm aware, more than anyone.

But that was M1000.

And by doing this, Moritz is k*lling

that guy for good. That's the deal.

Dan, my life depends on this.

If it doesn't work,

it's over for me soon, anyway.

Those are very unhealthy

in the long term too.

Lenny, I have something else

that could help with the pain.

Uh

It's a bit like opium, but it's natural.

[Moritz] What's taking so long? Huh?

- What's that?

- Mushrooms. To help with the pain.

Drug mushrooms?

Lenny doesn't take drugs!

This kind of behaviour threatens

our operation. It's irresponsible!

[Dan] Unlike you,

I'm concerned about Lenny's health!

We have to leave.

- I'm waiting for my vegan frikandels.

- Just eat your mushrooms then!

We have to go now.

We're not here for fun.

We've only completed

65% of the plan at most.

I hate my friends

And my mind's going nowhere ♪

Who's up for some Ritalin?

I got it from the kid I'm tutoring.

Wouldn't you rather study?

For the oral exam and read Faust?

Make or break, remember?

That's why I'm asking.

Without a little bit of support,

there's no way I can get

through ten pages of that paedo poet.

[Gerda] For an anti-Semite,

Faust is surprisingly un-anti-Semitic.

Just because our teachers

get hard for Faust

doesn't mean you guys have to like it too.

Quite the opposite.

It's different opinions that enable

a complex understanding of the subject.

It's called plurality of opinion.

Wow, journalism kicking in.

[Joseph] Look at you,

a natural journalist.

Journalist?

Yeah, it's not really a thing.

I was just thinking of applying

to study journalism.

I thought you applied ages ago.

I'm not completely sure yet.

And what will you it be next week, huh?

An astronaut? Or a foot model?

So, what are you both planning to do then

after the exams?

No, no plan.

I'm just gonna chill for a while.

[Joseph] Gerda?

- Marine biology, that's what I want to do.

- [Joseph] That's cool!

- [Gerda] Mm-hmm.

- Huh?

Since when?

Since primary school.

I've always loved the ocean.

- [Fritzi] Everybody loves the ocean.

- [Lisa] It's a good idea.

You know that we live

far from the ocean, right?

- In Kiel, there's an interesting degree.

- [Fritzi] Kiel?

Why haven't you told me about this?

You always say post-exams is pre-death

and you don't wanna think about it.

If I knew you were making shitty plans,

yeah, I would have asked.

Okay, I'm leaving.

Call me when the Ritalin kicks in

and you go back to not giving a sh*t.

That's not even what Ritalin does!

- Yeah, I know.

- [door slams shut]

[sighs]

And you knew all of this?

Yeah, she mentioned it once or twice.

Any other secrets?

Fritzi, you're making a big deal

out of nothing.

That's what she said. [laughing]

You tried way too hard to make that fit.

That's what she said. [laughing]

"Tried way too hard to make that fit."

Get it?

[German rap music playing]

[sighs]

Are you serious?

We're coming from Holland

with a bag of ecstasy.

You know how often they check cars here?

We can't be listening to German rap.

As if anyone gives a sh*t.

[Dan] I made us a whole playlist.

A soundtrack for our road trip.

"Destination", "Rotterdam",

"MDMA", "Takeover",

"Mach die Millen", "We Are Doing It",

"One Last Time"?

Gotta admit, it's a sick playlist!

Are you brain-dead? It's public!

Huh?

- What the hell?

- Yeah! I can also see that you listen to

- Justin Bieber!

- I listened to him one time as a joke!

How do I change the setting?

[police siren wailing]

[music stops]

[police siren wailing]

sh*t! I told you, man!

All that ecstasy!

[shouting over each other]

[Lenny] Just be cool, guys.

Hey!

[sighs]

- All good?

- I was gonna ask you the same thing.

What's going on, boys?

You coming from Holland?

Um

Yeah.

- But

- We just went for lunch.

Ah. So you thought you'd go

to the gourmet capital of Holland?

Lovely bitterballs, poffertjes, yeah?

[laughing]

Yeah, do me a favour and open the boot.

Sometime today, or is there something

in there you don't want us to see?

Hey!

I have a confession to make!

These guys bought drugs.

That's why we were in Holland.

They want to smuggle them into Germany,

but I had nothing to do with it!

[officer] Get on with it then.

Here.

- [Dan gasps]

- [Moritz] I said it was a stupid idea.

And the doctor also said

it was a stupid idea.

But Dan said that it's

some kind of painkiller.

Like opium but natural.

Um

He really had nothing to do with it.

I take full responsibility.

It was all my idea.

Cos my body can't handle painkillers.

[wheelchair lift beeping]

No! Please not this. Not now!

Moritz, could you check for me?

I think I've forgot the replacement bag.

Whatever, it's all over now anyway!

Are we going to prison?

- Lenny, you mustn't give up!

- [Lenny] I wanted to forget this pain!

I admit, I wanted to try them

for the trippy effects too.

I I wanted

For once, I just wanted

to feel something like happiness

one last time.

[crying]

[Lenny sobbing]

[Lenny sobbing]

[laughing]

He's such a loser, man!

"My nephew also has cancer.

You're the same age as each other."

He can give him the mushrooms.

They're supposed to relieve pain.

[Moritz laughing]

Oh, nice.

It's all going according to plan then.

[sighs]

[both laughing]

[cheerful music playing over video]

[replaying video]

[replaying video]

- [dog growling]

- [Marie on video] It's really cool!

- [dog whimpers]

- [Marie] You can pull this string here

- [typing on phone]

- [Marie] And then

HOLY sh*t WHATS THE DRUG DOG DOING HERE?

- NOW

[Marie talking on video]

[camera shutter clicking]

AND WHY DOES IT ONLY HAVE 3 LEGS?!

NOW

[whimpering]

CHILL MAN. SUSI CAN'T SMELL ANYTHING.

EVERYTHING IS IN STERILE PACKAGING.

BUT AT SOME POINT, WE HAVE TO DIVIDE THE AMOUNTS AGAIN!

- NOW

YEAAAAAH. JUST WAIT A SECOND!

NOW

Right, finished.

So, how can I help you? Hmm?

It's about a new project.

We want to sh**t cat videos

in the garage, for YouTube.

Susi has to leave.

Let me get this straight. Um

You want me to keep Susi out the garage

so you can create

cat video content?

[Susi panting]

Okay! No problem.

But it'll cost you, obviously.

100 euros for studio rental,

200 to cover loss of earnings,

and make it another 100 euros for Susi

since she won't be able to come in.

I mean, she just loves the garage.

No idea why.

[Susi panting]

Okay, agreed.

[Marie] Come on, Susi! Come, come on!

The film crew is about to let

the cat out of the bag.

- [Marie purrs, laughs]

- [Dan chuckles]

[Moritz] Okay.

Let's get started with the sorting.

"To see if,

through Spirit powers and lips,

I might have all secrets

at my fingertips."

FAUST: A TRAGEDY, PART ONE

SORRY! I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS A SECRE

GIRLS, COME ON

SORRY, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS A SECRE

AT LEAST I DIDN'T TELL THEM

ABOUT THE MORITZ THING

[Lisa] Fritzi, where's your shampoo?

Oh, found it!

I'm gonna die of old age

before we sell all of this.

Nah, the Dutch will k*ll us first.

I thought you'd taken care of that.

f*ck!

In all the chaos, I totally forgot!

- I knew there was something!

- Guys, you may think this is funny,

but I make up the 33 percent

who hasn't either lost their will to live

or is dying of cancer.

I still have big plans for my life.

And those plans are concrete.

[Moritz playing video game]

I got accepted!

By Iserlohn.

You know, for the marketing degree.

[playing video game]

Yeah, I know my grades aren't good enough,

but I impressed them so much

in the Skype interview that I

Now all I have to do

is just pass my exams.

And then I'm in.

- Guys! Can you believe it?

- Nice! Really!

Nice, Dan.

Thank you.

[Moritz playing video game]

Yeah!

Nice, Dan.

[groans]

So

I'll see you at the exam then, eh?

Wait, you don't think

I'm gonna leave him alone with the drugs?

Huh? What's he saying?

And what do you suggest?

[Lenny snoring]

- [sighs] Can we shut off the light now?

- No, no.

Dan, it's super bright!

Some of us have to revise for an exam.

[Moritz sighs]

Kira, come to bed.

Today was a really great day.

Moritz was a good friend.

But Dan was in a weird mood.

I hope they never find out

that I don't really have cancer.

Stop fighting and turn off the light!

Tomorrow's an important day.

[PA system chiming]

[indistinct PA message]

[breathes deeply]

So, how's it looking?

Not long now.

- Yeah. It's mad, right?

- [Moritz] Hmm.

This is the last exam and then

we're finished forever. [sighs]

[Lenny] Yeah. You could say

this is the most important day of my life.

I give up. I give up.

Remember, "It's our choices

that show what we truly are,

- far more than our abilities."

- Huh?

f*ck. Where's that?

Is it gonna be in the exam?

I've never heard it.

[chuckles] That is Harry Potter.

[laughing] It's make or break

for you today, isn't it, Dan?

Me too.

You spend almost every day with somebody

for years and years.

I mean, you think you know them.

In the end,

everybody does their own thing.

[inhales deeply] I mean,

the only thing that connects us

is the year we were born,

give or take a few months.

Then people like you end up

hanging out with people like Moritz.

Believe me, if I had a choice,

I wouldn't be doing it.

[Dan] Oh, well. It's not forever.

Just gotta pass my A Levels,

then I'm out of here.

Mr Zimmermann,

what do you think we can still learn

from Faust today?

That you shouldn't trust anyone.

How could Faust have known

what he was getting himself into?

If you wanna know what I think?

He should have got back at Mephisto

for deceiving him.

Go, go, go.

[Lenny] Faust had no other choice.

He had to do the deal with Mephisto.

For him, everything was on the line.

A human life was at stake.

I mean, what alternative was there?

Actually, I'd much rather talk

about Gretchen.

That, for me, is the real tragedy.

I mean, a 14-year-old girl

to fall in love with some really

creepy old man? Yeah, right!

Yeah, that's old white men for you.

[young man clears throat]

[Moritz] Faust should have waited

for the right moment.

A moment when Mephisto felt safe.

So he could then say to him:

"Mephisto, you've messed

with the wrong man."

Police! Freeze!

[police shouting]

Don't move! Here!

"The man who with thee goes,

within my deepest, innermost soul I hate.

In all my life there's nothing has given

my heart so keen a pang of loathing."

[exhales]

[police] Don't do anything stupid.

[triumphant music playing]

Could we maybe for once talk about

how Goethe was an anti-Semite?

You should think about that

before next year,

when 40 new students are standing

in front of you blindly celebrate Goethe

because they memorised a YouTube video

where Goethe is being blindly celebrated.

Yeah. Have a good day. Bye-bye!

Yeah, take care.

[calming music playing]

[male on audio] 7,457.

- 7,477.

- [mobile phone buzzes]

DAD: HI MATE, HOW WAS THE EXAM?

7,487.

7,489.

[Marie] He's been acting so weird lately.

Actually, he's been acting weird

as long as I've known him.

But lately, he's been acting

even weirder than normal.

I'm getting a little bit worried. You?

No, don't be worried.

It's just the way boys are.

Could you keep an eye on him

when I'm not around?

Yeah, I'll look out for him. I promise.

Hey!

Spying on Moritz?

Can I join you?

Or is your g*ng already full?

Moritz is definitely up to something.

- [Marie] Yeah, I

- [Lisa] Leave it, Fritzo.

- 7,621.

- [mobile phone buzzes]

[phone chimes]

VERY FEW GET A SECOND CHANCE. USE IT!

NOW

7,643.

[triumphant music playing]

[relieved sigh]

Oh, man!

We smashed it, didn't we, Benedikt?

It was a little bit digital,

a little bit analogue.

And now it's over for drugs

on the internet, huh? f*ck!

- Excuse me.

- What?

[Benedikt clears throat]

[groans] Whatever.

(OF COURSE, I WILL;)

NOW

(VERY FEW GET A SECOND CHANCE. USE IT!

OF COURSE, I WILL;)

Boom!

Sent to 2.1 million contacts.

[inhales deeply, groans]

Now we just wait.

It's almost too easy.

[door lock rattling]

What.

The.

f*ck?

Are you

- insane!

- [Moritz gulps]

You psycho, Moritz!

You're actually f*cking mad!

[Dan] Have you lost your f*cking mind?

I don't know. It was a reflex!

She saw everything!

What did you think was gonna happen?

I don't know, she'd pass out or something.

Then hack her into bits

and hide the body parts?

- I just wanted to buy some time!

- With a sh1tting g*n?

[Lenny] Is it real?

Yeah, but

- [Lenny sighs]

- Listen. This isn't as bad as it looks.

You guys are just overreacting.

It's not even loaded!

I didn't even want to have it.

Doro gave it to me for self-defence.

Who f*cking cares? It's a weapon!

Well, actually,

it's only a weapon when it's loaded.

Like Lenny's, the one he made

with a 3D printer.

- That was also for self-defence!

- Oh, because that turned out fine.

I'm going to look for Fritzi. Meanwhile,

you can keep an eye on this psycho!

[scoffs] "Psycho".

[Dan] Fritzi! Fritzi, wait!

- Are you okay?

- Oh, yeah. Everything's just fine.

In the last 24 hours, I've found out that

my best friends have been keeping secrets,

I'm not going to pass my exams,

and the class losers

are running a drug empire

with the guy I've always wanted.

So, yeah, I'm great!

Just a normal Wednesday, you know.

By "losers",

you mean Lenny and Moritz, right?

Listen, what you just saw

is really hard to explain.

We're doing it for Lenny,

but it'll be over soon.

Uh I mean, with the drugs.

[sighs] Come on. Why don't we get you

to the hospital? They'll take care of you.

Hospital? That was Moritz.

He's the one you should be worried about.

Uh, Fritzi?

- Did you find her?

- Yeah, I did.

And?

Yeah, all good.

Guys, she knows everything now!

- [groans] f*ck's sake!

- What?

- Well, I thought

- She'd forgot everything cos you hit her?

- In films, when they get hit on the head

- She hasn't forgotten anything!

Come on, guys!

You understand if somebody finds out

what we're doing, we're absolutely f*cked?

That's what actually happens in films.

As soon as someone finds out what's

going on, the plans go down the drain.

She won't say anything.

I promised her a bag of MDMA

for her to keep her mouth shut,

as compensation.

You did what?

Good work, Dan.

But just a couple of the blues.

They're the least popular anyway.

[sighs] That worked out well, right, guys?

This time, maybe. But who are you

gonna pull your g*n on next?

- I don't even know how it works!

- There's just one trigger!

Come on, Lenny!

This guy is insane! What else

will it take for you to say something?

Yeah but

We have the MDMA.

We can finish without him, Lenny!

[chuckles] Dan, you I mean

Lenny. It's me or the psycho here

with the g*n!

- But we need Mo

- It's me or the psycho!

[sighs]

[melancholic music playing]

[scoffs]

[door opens]

[door slams shut]

[Moritz] "Two souls, alas,

exist in my breast,

one separated from another.

One with its crude love of life."

What does that even mean?

"If you are unable to feed a team

with two pizzas, it's too large."

Now there is a quote!

Jeff Bezos.

[door creaks open]

So? What do you think? How many orders?

I say 4,000.

Twenty-three thousand.

- [Lenny chuckles]

- [Moritz] Hmm

Okay Ready?

23,416. As of when I left, anyway.

I thought we'd check together.

[laughing] Twenty-three thousand?

We have to pack and ship them all now.

- [typing]

- Do we really?

What do you mean?

Well, we already have the money.

We wanted to take the shop offline,

so we don't care what people think, right?

That's out of the question!

How would that look?

That's criminal!

Moritz

We sell drugs.

Yeah, but we sell them ethically!

Well, within context.

Lenny, I can find a way to handle this.

- You should get some rest.

- What?

No. Not a chance in hell.

We're in this together.

OK. If you insist.

We got the goods

We're bringing the pleasure ♪

Every dime is on my book ♪

I got the place

To hide out the treasure ♪

And you, you got the looks ♪

[song continues over headphones]

- Hey.

- [Fritzi] Come on in.

We're so happy to welcome you here,

Lenny, to St Joseph Medical Centre.

- Do you have any questions?

- No questions.

[song continues over radio]

[Lenny snoring]

That's the last order packed.

- We did it.

- Yeah, I guess that's it then.

MyDrugs is history.

In a few years, we'll look back on this

and laugh our asses off.

Hmm? Then we'll sell the story to Netflix

for a sh*t ton of money.

But it's probably too unrealistic

for them.

Yeah!

Who would believe that two 17-year-olds

earned over 900,000 euros

from selling drugs in two days,

- just to save one of their lives?

- [Lenny chuckles]

Thanks, Mo.

Yeah, or I'll use it to buy new drugs

and double the money.

Or put it all on red.

That was a joke.

You should set the password

for the wallet.

If I were you, I wouldn't trust me.

- [Lenny sighs]

- [Moritz slurping]

[growling gently]

DRUG RAID IN SODA FACTORY

[mobile phone chimes]

LISA: THE SOFT DRINK COMPANY

WAS SEIZED!

I KNOW. DON'T WORRY.

I HAVE EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL!

[mobile phone buzzing]

[mobile phone buzzing]

Hey! [chuckles]

Sorry, I couldn't remember

how to answer a phone call.

What year is it, by the way? 1999?

Yeah. It's unbelievable, isn't it?

That people still do this.

Talk on the phone in real time.

Without a delete button.

[chuckles]

Where you have to think about

what to say before saying it.

Um how's Fritzi doing?

With the A Level stuff?

Did she, um

Have you spoken to her recently?

Yeah, she's feeling better about it.

I think she kind of saw it coming

about the exams.

[Moritz] Mmm.

Plus, she started sewing my dress

for the leaver's ball today.

So

Tell me again,

what do you have under control?

[Moritz] Hmm?

Yeah, you were saying about Holland.

How you have everything under control.

[Moritz] Oh, the raid. Yeah.

Everything's going according to plan.

What plan?

My plan.

Hello? You still there?

Yeah.

What do you mean, your plan?

[Moritz] I k*lled two birds

with one stone.

For one thing,

there was this police officer

who was coming after MyDrugs,

but he had nothing on us.

He was totally lost.

So I proposed a deal.

I have an idea.

I would deliver him a much bigger fish

The Dutch.

And me,

he would forget about me completely.

And in all the confusion, I could steal

a million euros' worth of drugs

from the Dutch,

for Lenny and his treatment.

And all we needed for the plan to work

was a folding shovel,

a bag,

and a few people who we know

buy drugs off the internet.

Or who sell them.

And it worked incredibly well.

Now we just have to make sure

that every last trace is erased

and that our names won't show up anywhere.

And I really mean every last trace.

So, I served him Europe's

biggest drug ring on a silver platter.

Yeah, but

It's just a matter of time

before the Dutch start talking.

[Moritz] Hmm I don't think so.

Let me put it this way.

The Dutch are now guests of close friends

of a close friend of mine.

And their hospitality is something the

Dutch definitely can't take for granted.

So it's been taken care of.

They will forget our names very quickly.

[screaming]

Hey, Lisa.

You're the only person I can talk

to about all this. [inhales deeply]

I don't know what I'd do without you.

I

I mean, it's it's just good to have

someone to speak to who just listens.

Thank you.

Mo?

There's actually something

I have to talk to you about.

How does tomorrow sound?

Okay.

Well

I've finally found something

I really want to do.

I'm interested in people, I'm curious.

I even managed to work out that my ex

was an international drug lord.

And now there's this journalism degree

in Berlin.

The application isn't easy and you have

to submit your own essay that's original.

OK.

Sounds amazing. I'm happy for you.

The sessions we've been having recently,

there was another reason behind them.

They weren't just about studying.

Well, sure.

You weren't exactly subtle about it.

- Really?

- Lisa.

Nobody knows you better than I do.

Come on, I was gonna notice.

[sighs] You don't know

what a relief it is to hear that.

I thought you'd totally lose your sh*t

when you found out I was recording you

this whole time.

Weren't you scared?

I could have gone to the police.

You couldn't have known

about the application.

It's all anonymous,

and I'll delete everything after.

I need to say, it's been [fades out]

It's just such a good story!

You were recording me?

Oh my God. Is this a f*cking joke?

I thought you were interested in me!

But all along

you were just interested in my story.

I went through f*cking hell for you!

I gave it all up

so I could be the old Moritz again.

I had a chance.

I actually had a chance for a minute.

- What did you do?

- You did it for me?

Bullshit. You did it for yourself, Moritz.

You did it all for you.

Just like I wrote this article for myself.

But at least I can admit it!

Can you do that?

Can you take some f*cking responsibility?

Ugh!

APPLICATION FOR JOURNALISM COURSE

VOICE RECORDING MO

[Lisa] So, one of them's called Beeke.

- What's the other one's name?

- [Moritz] Marlene.

But you're still the CEO?

I am, yeah.

Can we stop talking about MyDrugs

and focus on studying?

Everyone has secrets.

But everyone pretends to be normal.

And they do things in secret

they don't want anyone else to know about.

Oh, f*ck!

[Moritz] I mean, it's crazy.

If I had done the same thing with

I dunno, muesli, for example,

I would be famous now.

And everyone would know my name.

Sometimes I'm scared

that my life will never be as exciting

as it was last year.

[Lisa] And even though I probably know him

better than anyone,

I couldn't tell you

whether he's actually going to stop.
