The Wave Page #2
Well, perhaps only few
dumb Easterners don't...
What does this mean ? I'm
also from East Germany.
You exactly know what
I mean, here bald heads.
Rainer, can't we talk
about anything else?
- What?
- Let talk about the Bush administration.
Wait a minute, It just
started to be interesting.
So, your opinion is that the dictatorship
in Germany is no longer possible, yes?
No way, we are much
more enlightened now.
Marco, what do you mean?
I do not know.
Well, we will have ten minute break.
What's going on here?
We have rearranged the tables, now
everybody has at least some place.
Bring your tables behind.
Possibly we can manage the
Project Week in a way as we want.
I suggest that we loosen
Has anyone anything against it?
Very good.
What is the basic foundation
for autocratic system?
Dennis?
An ideology.
Yes, what else?
Control.
Monitoring.
You think a bit too far.
Dissatisfaction.
Interesting.
But what I mean is: What is the
thing that any dictatorship has?
We have already spoken
about it earlier.
A leader, man
A leader?
Yes, bringing out a word leader (Fuhrer)
will only make this discussion harder.
But each dictatorship
has a central leader.
We can play a game here. So who
could be a leader here, among us?
You, as a teacher. Of course.
- I?
- Who else?
Well, I was hoping that somebody
else wanted to start first, perhaps.
I'm gonna' do it... I'm
going to be your Leader!
Forget it.
Rainer, you do it
Okay, so we agree.
Who want to support me during the
Project Week as your leading figure?
- Of what use can it be for us?
- Just wait a while.
I'm going to ask in another
way, who is against? Against?
Abstention?
Well.
Rainer Heil!
Such a leading figure deserves respect.
Therefore, I would like to be addressed
as Mr Wenger during that whole time.
Mr Wenger.
Now he is becoming megalomaniac.
Hey, didn't we just voted, right?
What do you want from me, Easterner?
Now, come do it with us.
You are not telling me what to do!
Watch your language, you dork.
Now please calm down. Come, take all
the stuff from your tables. Everything.
And from now on, only one who Is
permitted to speak, will speak.
Yes, Mr Wenger.
Did I give you the permission to talk?
No.
And one more thing, anybody
that speaks must stand up too.
Isn't that a bit too much?
Mona.
Isn't that a bit too
much... ...Mr Wenger?
Do you feel what?
What?
Spontaneous stand up's are
improving the blood circulation.
In the case you have
a low blood pressure.
But if you are standing up than you are not
so much sleepy and you' re better focused.
You can sit down again.
Marco, I know you're
tired from training...
...but sit straight.
Stretch your spine for once,
and put your feet parallel...
...and take a deep breath.
Do you feel the purpose of it?
Yes.
Marco?
Yes, Mr Wenger, I get better air.
Exactly, you get better air.
Then we are going to
this all together now.
Well, all stand up,
please. Stand up together.
What's happening now?
And take a deep breath.
Come on, stand up all of you!
Breathe in...
...and breathe out.
- And what about you?
- Not in the mood?
Then you have to go.
I don't force anyone, and that applies to
everybody. The whole thing here is voluntary.
- Stay cool now, Rainer.
- Mr Wenger.
Kevin, this is easy,...
...either you're with us or you go.
So what?
Let's go guys, this is much to "cranky".
Let's go Sinan. Bombers.
Comrade
Bye-bye-kowski!
You can sit down again.
What is even more
important in a dictatorship?
Discipline, Mr Wenger.
Very good, Tim.
Power through discipline.
Let's play a game of billiards.
Noooooo...
...i've got a better idea.
What's it dude?
I thought you are
here with M-class car?
This is my mother's car, wedding
anniversary gift from my father.
V8, 190 kW, 240 type.
I say, we bang this
Baby on the highway, or?
What about you?
No, I don't want to go.
How come?
Well, I going back to the classroom.
Have you completely
lost your mind or what?
Dude, I failed a year twice.
Do you know what's gonna' happen
if i don't pass my final exam?
And your situation
is not better as well.
I think you made a right decision.
Please sit behind.
Thanks to you, Rain... Mr Wenger.
We were just at the question of:
What are the social structures that
encourage developing of a dictatorship?
Lisa?
So what social structures are necessary?
Also, when there is so
much injustice and...
And people just do not know
if you... well..a social....
Ferdi Hey, what is this?
Lisa, please just sit down again.
Take a deep breath...
...think until you have
an answer, strait one.
I know that you can do it.
Try again, okay?
High unemployment and social Injustice.
Very well, high unemployment
and social injustice...
...are certainly helping
development of a dictatorship.
Tim?
A high inflation, Mr Wenger.
Well, inflation.
Political disenchantment.
Very well, Karo.
National awareness.
Yes we all have seen it
...when suddenly all over the Germany
national flags were hanging out.
- That was super.
- I found it totally disgusting.
Yes, but that was one cool
When the Germans once again could
be proud of their own country...
...just like any other nation, so...
Nationalism could
only make things worse.
And as a result of it we have
hate towards everything else.
I think what Mona want to say is...
It's something like extreme nationalism.
Can we agree?
Well.
Mr Wenger?
After the class you
call me Rainer again.
It has been real fun today.
I also think its great that you are
getting involved. Keep up the good work.
Yeah... Mr Wenger.
Dude, be careful!
Be careful. Watch yourself.
Don't insult your sister.
What do you want? You
better give me some light.
But you are not allowed to smoke.
Here you go.
Torsten might have said, you
can do what ever you want..
...but he surely has
not allowed you to smoke.
At least that's not your problem!
Let's go, leave that idiot alone.
- Retard.
- You're a retard.
You actually don't have a place to stay?
Hello precious.
Hello honey.
Do you want a drink?
Yes.
Don't you wanna ask me how it was?
And how was it?
It has been very interesting.
Mr. Wenger has shown
us how to sit properly.
Upright, spine straightforward, and...
...you know the feeling, when you
suddenly stand up, and your eyes black out.
That's because of a low blood pressure.
More roast meet?
Now we must stand up each
time we need to say something.
That's a good thing for blood pressure.
And our answers must
always be short and concise.
Very nice so why don't
you do it right now?
Suddenly we all have been fully
involved in it, such a weird energy...
...everybody is carried away.
Weird is exactly the word.
What does that mean?
Power through discipline.
Karo, sweetie, I'm
not so sure about it...
