Post by bunniefuu »

sh*t!

What's wrong?

-Don't worry about it.

-What am I going to do?

Welcome to the club, Banana.

-Günther!

-Stella, no

Please, don't.

What's up?

-Spit it out.

-Go on, tell him.

I'm sorry. I'll clean it up. Promise.

It's not a problem, my girl.

I guess it's "lady" now.

Hang on.

Tampons are the way to go.

It isn't true they break something.

Just shove it in. If it doesn't work,

put some spit on it.

-Take your pants off.

-Those are my best jeans!

And she's your best friend, right?

Here.

I don't have anything for Axel.

What do you mean?

Don't you usually bring something

to a party? Like alcohol?

He's happier to see you than a beer.

He's not one to be on a high horse.

I have a horse at my grandma's place.

It's really cool there.

-Everywhere's cooler than here.

-Yeah.

-I'm going to Canada. It's done.

-Really?

With Michi. But we need

plane tickets. 4,000 bucks.

I want to be a show jumper.

I need around 4,000 too.

You have to pay for the horse,

riding boots, lessons

-I mean, if you really want it.

-If you really want it.

-Great minds think alike.

-I have a great mind.

Not sure about you.

-That's him.

-Cool.

What's with the poster?

It's the only thing I have

with a horse on it.

It's over with Matze.

So, this is where you come in.

Coatrack's there.

Toilet and shower,

if you need to shower

or take a sh*t.

Cool place.

Are more people coming?

Not tonight.

Just a small gathering for now.

I'm glad you came.

Cool place, anyway.

-Want a drink? What can I get you?

-Do you have cherry juice?

Oh, God

I'll just go to the store.

Axel?

-Axel!

-Huh?

Guess who's coming to Berlin

in April.

The Bolshevists?

David Bowie.

No, really?

In four weeks at Deutschlandhalle.

Stupid f*g.

What'd he say?

That Michi's in love with him.

Let's all go.

It'll be the best night of our lives.

Bowie for all, all for Bowie!

So? Is Benno in Canada yet?

Yes?

It's an original certificate

from Dr. Morell. No doubt.

No, I can't do anything under 400.

Then give it some more thought.

Do you want to

resell it?

The Führer's feces? Yes.

There's something better

on the market.

You know he only had one testicle?

No, I didn't.

Where's the other one?

It could be in my possession soon.

What do you want from me?

I wanted to ask for an advance.

There's a concert.

I wanted to buy tickets.

And I want to take someone.

Okey-dokey!

I suppose we can write

your buddy off.

No, he has a cold. He

You do a really good job, Axel.

You can be trusted.

From next month

you're in charge of the router.

You'll go far.

Christiane!

What are you doing here?

I happened to be around.

I see.

You all right?

I think I'll drop out

of my apprenticeship.

Cool.

I'm making lunch.

Want to come up?

Sure.

How come you can cook?

I don't know. It's not that hard.

Of course, I can leave you the skin.

Wow!

It looks great.

Enjoy!

You too.

Oh, no.

Hello. I'm Benno.

Nice to meet you, Benno.

Nice to meet you, too.

Would you like some food?

Christiane cooked.

No, thanks. I ate in the cafeteria.

Okay.

-May I?

-Uh-huh.

-Bon appétit.

-Thank you.

So?

I wish you had told me.

How long have you been together?

Can't you tell you're intruding?

-Where's the bathroom?

-Down there, on the left.

Well, he's nice!

Where did you two meet?

We're just friends.

We should get you on the pill.

There's no way I'd make a baby

that I don't want.

-If I jumped, I wouldn't get hurt.

-I know.

Matze told me that story.

It's true.

Anyone else would be dead.

Show me.

I know I wouldn't get hurt.

Well, I'm not stopping you.

Better not.

It might not work again.

And things are good right now.

Despite this shitty situation

with my parents.

I'll do better.

We'll all do better.

Now you think I'm a liar.

No.

Hello.

Hello.

Gosh.

Look. That's colored laundry.

Don't put it in with the whites.

It's not so hard.

You'll learn.

And don't put those in there.

Good morning.

Morning.

We said before midnight.

If you don't stick

to what we agreed

You don't, either.

Why did you do it?

Do what?

Dad and I really wanted that baby.

I didn't do anything.

It wasn't meant to be,

and that's a good thing.

How was I supposed to manage alone?

With a man child like that?

Your father can't even

You have no idea!

You don't believe in us.

Hey, wake up.

You're going to be late

for work again.

What do you want?

-See you tonight.

-See you.

Benno.

Uh! What's your problem?

Get up.

What do you want?

You must do your apprenticeship.

My boss is a n*zi.

All bosses are Nazis.

Why don't you take anything

seriously?

You've become so f*cking lame.

f*ck you!

Shut up!

I don't need any sh*t

from a f*cking bird right now.

Why don't you do

a g*dd*mn apprenticeship?

-Hi!

-Hi!

Hi!

Hi!

Hey, is Benno here?

Am I his nanny or something?

Come with me.

You're still peeing?

No, Foxy is. She was

in my grandma's closet for 100 years.

Matze's sh**ting up now, too.

-Wouldn't have thought that of him.

-So what?

-I don't care about him.

-Who do you care about, then?

Tell me.

Go get him.

-I made us coffee, you busy bee.

-Thanks, good guy!

Hey, honey!

You're the center of all my thoughts!

And I know it's now or never!

My heart burns in my chest!

Scrub my carrot, my little star.

I love you so much.

Now, now.

-We could do that.

-No way!

Sure we could. Look! Just jump.

Come here. Come on!

And now

Still there? One, two, three

Disgusting!

Hello?

Yes. I'm here. That's fine.

Dad just called.

He's coming over to get some stuff.

We could have breakfast together.

Sure.

Hello. You must be Christiane.

-Mom, can you come here?

-Yeah.

Aha!

So he sent somebody else

in his place?

-I'm Milos.

-Karin. Hello.

Robert can't handle this right now.

The whole thing

is really getting to him.

I'll just take a few clothes

and the dog.

Ajax stays here.

Come on in.

Want some coffee?

Why not?

He's Dad's dog.

There's nothing we can do.

You don't want to do anything!

You always put the blame on me!

Your father's the one

taking the dog away!

What are you doing here?

We need hay for Torpedo.

How are things at home?

I have to do everything by myself

now.

Mom calls the police every evening

asking about you.

You can take it like that.

Maybe I should tell her

where you are.

Torpedo.

My goodness, Axel!

I don't mind you youngsters

drinking one too many on the weekend.

But drugs like that during the week?

You have to stop.

It won't happen again.

I promise.

You look tired.

You're going out too much.

I don't go out at all anymore.

How long are you going to stay here?

Oh, I can stay here

as long as I take care of the dogs.

Gerd and Gerda are in Spain

half the year.

They'll probably emigrate soon.

Can't you just come back home?

Mom and I will always be

your parents, but right now

It's better this way.

You know that we love you?

Who knows,

maybe everything will be all right.

Sometimes you just need hope.

And, anyway,

I've had a fantastic idea.

I'm going to Thailand this summer.

For work.

Tourism's just starting up

in Thailand.

You can start something new.

I'll start small, yeah?

A little guesthouse.

And then

someday I'll have my own hotel.

Great, huh? What do you think?

Do you even hear the bullshit

coming out of your mouth?

Bullshit, huh?

Don't take that tone with me, Missy!

Christiane!

I want to try heroin.

For scrubbing or oral

you get a quarter gram.

Full sex, you get an extra helping.

From Günni, at least.

For oral, you take the guy's d*ck

in your mouth, like this.

Jerking off,

which Günni calls "scrubbing,"

is done with your hand, like this.

Want to try?

I can get it somewhere else.

Is something wrong?

Come here.

Günther, don't joke around.

Stella!

I've never met anyone like you.

Would you be my wife?

I know you're too young

to get married.

You don't have to answer.

I

I want you to know

that I want to take care of you.

My big boy.

Carrot!

And?

That wasn't our Stella.

-A quarter gram?

-Get lost.

A quarter gram?

-Axel!

-Hey, Christiane.

Do you have some for me?

H? No. I quit.

You're not serious?

You know, I had two tickets.

For the both of us.

-For Bovie?

-Bowie!

You don't pronounce it "Bovie."

I sold them

because I needed money for H.

Maybe I can get hold of a few

tonight.

There's a competition.

And I've been practicing.

Okay, guys, here we go!

Six tickets for Bowie

for the best air guitarist!

Come here.

Bowie for all, all for Bowie!

Hi.

f*ck it. Let's just go to Axel's,

or the movie theater.

-Why the movie theater?

-I sold my ticket for H.

Me too.

-Me too.

-Me too.

I lost mine.

You expect me to go in alone or?

No.

Come with me.

Guys Run.

This way.

Should I?

Weren't we here before?

-Run.

-Run!

Out of the way.

Babsi! Come with me.

Let go!

f*ck! You assholes!

Let go of me! Don't you touch me!

-Now what?

-This way.

Come on.

This way!

Bowie!

Wankers.

Some people are so stupid.

They pay 180 for a ticket.

180?

I could have gotten 4.5 grams

for that.

I think Christiane is into you.

Bowie!

Bowie!

Bowie!
