anything suspicious?

No, nothing.

Do you know who owns

a dog in this house?

There aren't any

dogs here.

Okay.

Good night!

Sorry again to disturb you.

Compliments to your girlfriend!

I Will.

She shouldn't worry!

Hello!

- Hello!

Thank you!

I have a stupid question:

Do you also feel like

certain neighbours

are spying on you?

No, not really.

Why?

No, it's nothing.

Bye!

- Bye!

I've won dog food in a raffle recently.

Do you know who owns a dog here?

As far as I know there aren't any pets.

Sorry.

Ah, put it on eBay!

The buyers will even pick it up.

Good idea.

- Bye! - Bye.

I don't want to keep them

waiting with the brunch.

What?

I guess I'd better practice.

Invite Robert and Orhan for dinner.

okay?

Maybe next week?

Huhu!

Hello!

Must have been an extensive brunch.

You know they always

serve loads.

They wouldn't have let me go

without any gift for you.

We had a little too much wine.

hadn't we?

Me? Never.

Just them.

I see.

The smell comes from passive-drinking?

- Exactly.

Greetings from both of them.

They'd love to see our new flat.

How was your day?

Nothing special.

Where is my tiger?

My big one.

dangerous one!

Don't ask me.

I already looked where

he hid himself yesterday.

Pikachu!

He's annoying.

The cat is annoying.

The way he is hiding all the time.

Do you think he doesn't like me?

Bullshit. He's tiny and he's afraid.

That's pretty normal.

Do you think it's stupid

if we return him?

Are you crazy?

Why not?

We won't swap him.

just because he doesn't respond.

Oh! Now look at him!

It will be fine.

Give him some time.

My little tiger.

Whose turn is it?

- Yours!

It's just been her turn.

You're such a smartass!

I'm the winner anyway!

That might be true to some degree.

I got that habit from my ex.

Every game ended with him being offended

and then he locked himself

in the bathroom!

You know him.

He was generally

a denier of intelligence.

Why were you with

that "denier"?

Hold on! Was it that certain ex...?

Yep.

Now the question is superfluous.

I had a girlfriend who was

the opposite. She always won.

No matter if she knew the game or not.

No need to bring her to a game party,

'cause nobody would play with her.

Well. Lucky at cards...

One, two, three, oh!

Who has got the yellow one?

- Which ex is that?

Sabine. I'm not sure if you met before.

- The violinist.

He has got a weakness for musicians.

- I knew you would say that!

Well, she is rather pretty.

What is she up to now?

Are you still in touch?

Not really.

Maybe a message on birthdays or so.

What is she doing now?

I think she has finished the academy

and plays in an orchestra.

And which orchestra?

Jessi! If you are keen to know

you should meet her one day.

Not a good idea.

That would be a complete flop!

One might just ask.

Which orchestra?

The philharmonic orchestra.

Coffee anyone? Dessert?

I'll have both.

No coffee for him though.

Or he'll be unbearable all night.

- Yeah, right.

You can sleep on the sofa, again.

So she's stressed out?

Maybe a little tensed-up

because the competition is close.

And...

she thinks

our neighbours are harassing us.

What?

For real?

Like they do in the movies?

- I can hear you!

It isn't a secret, is it?

Nope, but then better show them

the photos on my mobile!

Photos?

Oh no!

That was right after we moved in.

Oh, a warm welcome!

- That's disgusting!

Disgusting indeed, cut it out!

That doesn't mean

you get bullied.

Look, how delicious!

Yummy!

Here you are, sweetie.

- Thanks.

I wanna marry you!

May I, darling?

- I have no objections.

Hey, please, say something!

- Do we know the bride price already?

About the neighbours:

I remember.

Back in school, I used to think

all teachers were against me.

Every bad grade felt like an attack.

I'm uptight with new clients very often,

because they might have a problem

with my sexual orientation.

Well, sometimes fantasy takes off!

Hey... relax!

- I don't need to relax!

What about all the stories

about your imaginations!?

Everyone can have a bad day.

That's true.

You've got the talent. We wouldn't

have nominated you, otherwise.

You just have to go on.

Mentally, too. Especially mentally.

Of course.

I'm sorry to...

Thank you, bye!

- See you on Monday!

Jessica?

Focus on the essence.

Focus on how you feel the music.

I Will.

Hello!

- Hello!

He says it still lacks emotions.

Though I really tried to push

everything aside and...

let myself completely into it but-

Well, maybe it's exactly that:

You shouldn't make such an effort.

- What else then?

Where should I take the feeling from?

- Out of the music.

From inside you.

But the piece is super difficult.

How should I beam myself away...

and be concentrated

completely at the same time?

What if that's all I've got?

What if I can't do it any better?

Hey, Jessi.

You'll make it.

I strongly believe in that.

What is the matter?

I don't want them to hear us.

At least they would know

we're not giving in.

I threw that angel away today.

It was creepy.

That's alright.

We don't have to keep awful gifts.

I know you don't believe me

but this is killing me.

Oh Jessi.

For how long will this go on?

I'm tiring, ain't I?

But since we moved here

you started nagging.

Just because things are going on here!

You're gone all day.

you don't realize it.

No surprise you don't believe me.

Listen:

Would it be of any help if I stayed

at home with you for two or three days?

Do you really mean it?

I stay with you if it helps.

You're just saying it,

so that I'm willing?

Of course!

- I know you, darling.

Hurry! The bus is coming!

- Bye! - Bye!

As I said:
One can feel

when you open up to the music.

As I said:
One can feel

when you open up to the music.

What I have heard today,

was one of the best interpretations

I ever heard from students.

I really don't exaggerate.

If today was the competition...

No one could have competed with you!

Pikachu! Have you been waiting?

Why is the door open?

Hey sweetie?

How was your day?

Any more disasters?

Jessi! Hey!

Really, I have no idea.

All I know is I got home

from the academy and felt sick.

Then nothing. A blackout.

You body says:
Rest.

You've got to listen

to your body, Jessi.

Where is my little one?

I just wanted to ask:

Have you noticed anything?

No, no. I haven't seen anything.

- Okay, thanks.

Hello

- Hello.

Sorry for disturbing you but...

our kitten is missing somehow-

Oh no!

Yes, have you seen him?

I'm afraid no, I'm sorry.

- Okay, though thank you.

Hello Mrs. Domweber.

One question:
Our kitten is missing.

I would like to ask if maybe you...

Oh no! Which kitten?

Well, our kitten.

Remember?

We brought a kitten two weeks ago...

Ah well, yes, that kitten.

Now I remember, pardon me.

No, we haven't seen it.

Though I'll keep my eyes and ears open!

Oh! Wait a moment!

You must have dropped it.

I picked it out of the garbage.

No need to be embarrassed.
