Maybe you'd like to come and listen.

Or better yet, sing?

Okay, let me think about it.

Here's my number.

I'm David.

I'm Nienke.

Let's take your picture.

Excuse me.

I'll text you.

You owe me a book.

What a lousy thing to do.

You think so?

I also thought it was so sad.

But David,

you could have stood up.

You could have said

you had his book.

But you didn't.

Good going.

Is that how she manipulates you?

- Worse.

You should thank her.

- For What?

He has detention for three days.

She saved you.

- And you know it.

I'm came to return Jochem's textbook.

Come in.

Are you in his class?

Yes.

Have some,

that's What they're for.

He's with that girl.

Vera.

I don't know her

and it's none of my business.

A girlfriend would do him good.

Do you have a girlfriend?

- No.

That's good to hear.

I thought he was

the only one who didn't...

Well, What do I know.

I'd be happy for him.

I really have to...

Here's his book.

Thanks for bringing it by.

You're David, right?

I'll tell him you were here.

Come back anytime.

It's nice to meet a classmate.

Here.

- Thanks.

What's that?

Oh that?

I sat too close to a fire once.

It suddenly started shooting sparks.

That's terrible.

Do I need to bury you?

Oh no, it's still alive.

What time is it?

Don't Worry, it's Saturday.

I have a little job for you.

Be ready in fifteen minutes.

You've slept long enough.

Your mom Works,

so I have to do everything.

Do you know What time it is?

It's Saturday.

I asked What time it is,

not What day.

Time to hire a maid.

Kids have no discipline.

When I was young

you'd practice until you dropped.

Nowadays they come home

and stop practicing.

You can't learn the piano

Without practice.

You're not listening.

Yes I am.

You were talking about discipline.

One of them can go straight

to the conservatory.

He comes twice a Week

and practices at home.

Cinema tonight?

A rare talent.

There.

Beef roll?

I'll just have some vegetables.

But you always like these.

I'll just have some vegetables.

Daddy made such a nice meal.

Did you see Niels and Youssef?

No, not yet.

How are you?

Good.

And how's Jochem?

I don't know.

Why?

I heard you see each other often.

Oh yes, at the shelter.

He's adopting a dog.

I Work there.

Hey, I heard We have

a new rock chick?

I just told Niels.

Is she hot?

Didn't you take her picture?

You have her picture?

Show us.

Come on.

She's smoking hot.

And speaking of beautiful ladies...

Look, our new band member.

Is she hot or not?

- Be honest.

She is, isn't she?

Did you have fun tonight?

I have to Write

about local schools.

My boss mentioned your school.

Don't even think about it.

What better source

of inside information?

I Wouldn't be able

to show my face anymore.

You exaggerate everything.

You underestimate everything.

Look at your new job.

It's Saturday, midnight.

And you're still Working.

You're right, I must be crazy.

I'll tell my boss

there's a conflict of interest.

Write some praising stories.

That's What people Want to read.

But is it the truth?

Everybody loves their own school.

That's enough guys.

We don't Want to cripple him.

You're not rid of us yet.

You still have to pay for my shirt.

Jochem do you Want some tea?

No I have homework.

Mrs Smit speaking.

This is Jochem.

I hurt my hand

so I can't come for a While.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Hold on.

Let's hear it with our music.

I Want to Walk on clouds

I Want to drink on the moon

I Want to dance with the stars

and stand on the sun.

Yeah, baby take me with you

No Worries, nobody around

Sometimes I'm fed up

and need to be alone

Good, stop.

I've heard enough.

We have a new singer.

Didn't I tell you?

Sorry guys,

but I'm not convinced.

You sound like Phoebe

from Friends.

Are you tone-deaf?

You're great.

Really very good.

I'm calling the principal.

- Don't.

I don't Want to be the school dork.

A sight for sore eyes.

And so very quiet.

It's a bit frightening.

And I don't see so Well, so...

Seriously,
