Do you want to talk about it?

No.

If you are not yet ready,

I can accept that.

I could use some money.

Who doesn't?

Unfortunately we are dependent

on donations ourselves.

Maybe I could do some chores

in the house?

Yes, there are a few things that could be done.

But we cannot pay much.

5 Euros per hour.

I don't need much.

Six.

Hey, are you a little crazy?

You have sort of a strange hobby,

don't you?

Well, as long as you

find it all funny.

Are you done with the

football field?

Then come with me.

Yes.

Super!

It is some German company.

They built exactly this table in the 60s.

So tell me. You can talk

but you don't want to, right?

And what's with that funny guy.

On the sporting ground?

Herzog.

The German company's name is Herzog.

And is in Hamburg.

Watch out!

Watch your head!

What a coincidence.

We had exactly the same one

in Puntigam.

At the "Bahnhofswirt" exactly the

same table was set up.

Great!

Thanks

Did you refurbish it?

Let's have a match?

But for every goal I shoot I can

ask you a question.

Okay

Try and score one!

Watch out with your cigarette

Oh, sorry.

Tongue cancer

1-1

The old regent has tongue cancer.

Tongue gone, preaching gone...

Old regent?

Yes, he used to be the boss here.

For this answer you still

owe me a goal.

Already done.

So he was the boss here when it

happened with Gottlieb Dornhelm?

There's still work to do.

Let's go!

Aw, c'mon. Let's play on.

Are you coming?

What's over there?

Maria's Grotto.

But it's only for the very religious.

Here, it needs to be

taken to the carpentry.

It is totally worm-eaten.

And who's helping me?

You'll be fine.

I go to town and buy some cloth.

Brenner?

Brenner

Brenner?

Bertie?

Hi Brenner.

Hi

You're not with the "Rettung" anymore?

Please lie down. You could have

a cerebral haemorrhage.

Are you stupid?

I would have to be unconscious.

You were unconscious right now.

Here, look, does it bleed to the inside or outside?

What does the expert say?

You certainly have a concussion.

No. I have a headache.

No wonder. I always get headaches

when I'm sitting in the rear.

Hey! I want to sit in front.

Drive on.

What do you mean: "Drive on"?

Why?

You know exactly that patients

are not allowed in front.

Then I don't come along to the hospital.

No "please, Brenner".

Either I can sit in front or I exit.

Please, Brenner.

Gauze bandages are all the way down.

Don't need them.

A band-aid is enough.

So old and still so vain?

Excuse me, but this is not a

headshot, is it?

What's this supposed to be?

You'll see.

Thanks, cya.

Thanks, bye.

So, does this have anything to

do with an ambulance?

A little side-business.

organ trade?

No, totally harmless.

Errands for the "Salzburger Festspiele".

A new invention by the "Festspiel"-president.

In Autumn?

Easter-Festspiele, Summer-Festspiele and

he's also involved along in the advent singing.

And what's in it for you?

per month

100 Euros

Nono, for each delivery.

What? You take plastic bags for a ride

for 100 Euros?

Great, isn't it?

What's in there?

Brenner that's a secret, please.

Please stop.

Garbage?

Yes

Where do you take it to?

To the theater

You drive garbage to the theater

for 100 Euros?

And that doesn't appear a little strange to you?

Yes

It's absolutely respectable.

I bring the package, deliver it

and get paid straight away.

When?

At 6pm

I'll come along

No, I have to come alone.

Can you stop right there?

I live here.

What now?

You're not coming along

to the hospital?

No, and there's also no Santa Claus and

no Easter bunny.

Already on the first day of training

we were warned of patients like you.

Can I borrow this?

It's not mine

See you at 6.

Stay away from the theater. Please.

I don't want to... I..

I don't want to lose that job.

Then go shopping at a gas station.

I can't give you the car today.

Please don't yell.

Nonsense.. Nowadays you can buy

everything at a gas station.

To Mrs. Dornhelm.

You wait.

Hello.

2 bags.

I think I'm catching a bit of a cold.

Why?

What, why?

Is there a reason why I always do what

you say and you never do what I say?

Choose yourself.

Is there any reason for that?

Age, beauty

F*** you

Hey, Bertie, cmon.

Piss off!

Where are you going now?

What are you doing there?

Hey, you over there.

Stop!

Well, hello.

Where are you coming from?

Where do you want to go?

Who do you think you are?

Well, security.

Mr. Krawagner. You are going to

have a little problem.

Really?

With whom?

Mrs. Dornhelm waits for me.

Please.

Well, follow me along.

And you'll wait here.

We are in Baghdad, and here

the rules are different.

Me, your master.

You, my slave.

I, your slave?

Hopefully you didn't forget that

Bassah gave you to me as a slave.

Who cares about Bassah?

Girls are not a ware to trade as a gift.

I immidiately order you to love me.

Stop!

Bullshit

What a bullshit

Excuse me.

But I may say something,

may I not?

But you are the mother of god.

You are a virgin,

You are, you are the heaven,

you are the stars.

You are totally clear. Just like the mother

of god during puberty.

Please write that down.

Okay, Anita?

Okay, please.

And action!

Isn't there any music?

How did you come in here?

I told them I have to see you.

Are you the boss here?

I'm the boss's daughter.

And you work a bit along

in the family business,

like it is customary on farms.

Is it illegal?

No, no.

Me, your master.

You, my slave.

Your slave?

Brush! Brush!

What are you exactly?

The garbage lady?

Brush!

Follow me to the office.

So?

What is it with the garbage?

Mr. Brenner. I pledge by everything that

matters to me. It is absolutely harmless.

Aha, so what matters to you?

It is an internal affair

of the Festspiele.

Mr. Brenner. Please.

Okay. I just wanted to know

what matters to you.

Justice for my husband,

for example.

You loved him dearly?

Kita, you can't leave me

alone right now.

Schmidtke wants to throw in the

towel because of the bad weather.

He doesn't sing when the

temperature drops that low.

Who is this?

That is Mr. Brenner.

I have told you of him, dad.

Brenner?

Hello.

Hello.

Well, whatever.

Kita, I really have other

things to worry about right now.

Please go to Schmidtke.

Calm him down a little.

You're so good at that.

Watch out!

Precision mechanics.

That's the same one Hitler had

at the Wolfsschanze.

Because Hitler was mad..

..ly sensitive with his ears.

He didn't hate anything more

than noise.

But he loved Wagner.

And then the last thing such a man hears

is the bang of a pistol in a bunker.

Somehow tragic.

Yes.

Gottlieb Dornhelm had a little

nicer view before his death.

Let me tell you something.

Mr. Brenner?

As I was told that my

son-in-law had died,

Yes?

the first thing I did was to

open a bottle of champagne.

Can you imagine that?

well, there's nothing you can imagine.

My son-in-law was not a real man,

do you understand?

Do you think that there was some
