FABRICS-CHEST
Hello, Lisa. Is Carla here?
She's in the back. What is it?
To what do I owe the honor?
Pathos called us. You had a break-in?
Is that his business? No.
I guess so. When his son has a headless cat in bed.
Why does he always interfere with my life?
He loves you.
Victor, it was two junkies.
They put Molly in the shower, that's all.
Rocco blows this up, just like his father.
Unfortunately, as a cop, I still have to see your apartment.
I have to protect you.
Fine.
If you tell Anne again to break up with me...
I didn't tell her to break up.
I told her not to put up with everything.
Stop ruining other people's lives
just because you ruined your life.
Let's go? Okay. Lisa, I have to go home.
Here.
If I'm not back in an hour, call the police.
Very funny.
What did it say here?
"Happy Birthday, Juno." You didn't want to come.
He's a Bayern fan, your--
-Ringo. -Ringo?
What do you mean?
My grandson has a shirt like that.
It costs 100 euros, right?
Ringo sells these?
No. This is a bulk order. For Rocco's team.
One moment.
There's blood on Rocco's mattress.
It's mine.
When you were on your period and you slept at his place?
With him.
THE SHEIKH
EPISODE TWO THE BLOOMING BOG
Hey! Helena!
How are you?
-You're here? -Yes.
I'm visiting friends.
The two in 11 are your friends?
Maybe it's not ruined.
-Be careful. -I will.
-And otherwise? -Everything's fine.
Still clinging to your ex, huh?
That's not good.
Not for long. Take care.
Who is it?
It's me, Pathos.
Are you alone?
You look stressed, dude. Take a break, life is short.
Everything will be fine. The two get the dough.
The German TV program sucks, dude.
The German food sucks. We're going crazy!
Holy shit! So crazy!
-Fuck, not funny! -Why did you do that to the cat?
Meow.
Are you nuts? That was my son's cat.
Fucking bastards!
Leave now before the cops get you.
I'll call you when the cash is here.
Now the stupid junkie gets it.
That's your ex's guy. Careful, dude.
If the money isn't here tomorrow...
Shut up! Asshole.
You leave now.
You two leave, okay? Leave now.
Stop laughing.
We need more trash anyway.
-Come. Put the gun down, Cowboy. -Fucking bastard!
So much stress for no reason.
Are we no longer partners?
Or do you not want more?
Let's go, man. Bad vibes, man. Bad Vibes, he's gonna kill us.
Asshole!
Let's go.
Asshole.
Fuck!
Ringo?
Are you picking up the kids today?
Are you off work already?
Ringo?
Dude!
What are you doing here?
Get out! How did you get in here?
What do you mean, how? With the key.
You don't have a key, damn psycho.
Rocco has two.
Give it to me. So that's where it is. Give it to me!
-Here. -Stop stalking me. Get lost!
You look so beautiful when you're angry.
I miss you.
I miss you every day.
Pathos, find a woman who loves you.
You're still in your prime.
I don't want something to happen and we blame each other later.
It's some really big shit we're in.
-Oh, really? -If they do something to Ringo.
We didn't steal the money.
And I don't know where to get it from.
Fix this, Pathos.
That's the problem with you. You only look like a man.
Who are they anyway?
I know them from my time in Frankfurt.
Rich kids. They used to just party.
Now they're on Crystal.
Oh, great.
One is called Pius. The other Benediktus.
Benediktus Benediktus? Benediktus from Anne?
And they're here again?
In the motel with Helena.
And so we can get the fucking money,
they cut Molly--
Yes.
Get out. They're here.
-Here. Take this, please. -Are you crazy? Put that away.
-Take it, please. Please! -Put it away. I don't want it!
You have to take it.
They would've let him drown. Understand?
Go now!
-Through the door. -Hey!
-You finally getting a divorce? -Never.
-What's in that box? -Dad bought a trampoline.
-A trampoline? -Yes.
A trampoline.
-It's always Christmas with you. -Oh, God.
-Jumping's good against sadness. -Really?
If you lose pets, you should--
-You read that? -Yes.
Mr. Tsara. I'm so sorry. We're in the middle of an audit.
You know it's about this family?
Do you know how big the Al Thani family fortune is?
Big enough to buy your bank.
Yes, perhaps. If the price is right.
My father-in-law is beside himself.
Just the fact that you told me that.
-And how you told me. -Let's discuss in my office.
Mr. Tsara deleted my account authority
because he is putting me on the board,
and as such I have general managerial authority.
Yes, I understand. Unfortunately, he--
Do you pay for the damage?
If the Tsara Real Estate misses out on 18 million?
No, that's not right.
If the authority has been removed,
the system doesn't release statements to me.
But everything is fine,
if your father-in-law directs the payout--
Understood. And you would take that cash with you?
Then I will do so.
Hey, Yvonne, would you let the cashier know
to provide 100,000? Yes.
And could you put me through to Samuel Tsara, please?
One minute.
You just don't trust me.
This isn't even signed. It's only initialed.
No.
You don't trust me
because I don't come from above like you do, but from below.
Because my life is not a dolce vita,
but the struggle of a Füdlibürger.
FÜDLIBÜRGER = BOURGEOIS
Hello, Mr. Tsara, I--
It's all right. We'll be in touch.
CONTACT "SHEIKH" HAS BEEN DELETED
One more, please.
UNDO DELETE? CANCEL
SHEIKH
Does he have a friend in his class?
Ja. Viele.
Adrian's very popular, right, Carla?
And Max?
Max as well. And Nicholas.
Nicholas Würth?
Yes.
Würth is the screw-billionaire.
Screws make you a billionaire?
Who's your best friend, Ringo?
Carla.
Carla. Who else?
Good question. Do you have friends?
Yes. Many. Men without friends--
Ringo doesn't mean business partners.
I got it.
But I can at least say I find it sad you don't have any friends.
Ringo is a different person than you.
Maybe he just doesn't enjoy drinking beer with other men.
I don't like beer.
Exactly, he's a family man.
I don't like beer at home either.
I'm very happy you're visiting. It was a nice idea. Spontaneous.
And we have news.
Oh, right. Attention.
We found an apartment in Titisee-Neustadt.
And we would like to buy it.
You want to buy an apartment?
-Yes. -How much?
Two hundred and eighty thousand.
But we would have to bring in 100,000.
It's beautiful. Large terrace by the lake,
very expensive new kitchen, really nice.
-And on sale from 350,000. -Yes.
Isn't property a capitalist perversion?
Depends on what you do with it.
Hannes.
Now you want the 100,000? I think that's good news.
-Yeah? -Where is it?
-In Titisee-Neustadt. -Yes, where?
-By the museum near the spa. -Yes.
The pharmacy is on the right, diagonally opposite.
The yellow house?
Yellow, was it yellow?
-Mustard yellow, yes. Yellow. -Then yellow.
And from there you see the lake?
And they sell an apartment?
On top.
I didn't know that.
Because the house is mine.
We also lie full-time as well as trespassing in my company?
Hannes, please.
What do you need the 100,000 for?
Doesn't seem important enough to tell me.
You're too big an asshole to tell you.
Stop, not today. I can't stand that.
I can't do this. You figure this out.
-Carla, sit down. -No!
Fine, we'll talk to Ringo then. We will find a solution.
Cheesecake?
-Yes. -In the fridge.
Thank you.
Well, love's a funny thing.
We lost our daughter since she started dating you.
You drew her into your life
even though you can't do anything and are nothing.
Why are you ruining her life?
I'll only make you this offer once.
We'll pay you the 100,000 without asking what for.
And we'll pay you an extra 50,000.
For that you release Carla. That means you will leave her.
-But we love each other. -Love comes and goes.
But money heals many wounds.
-Say something. -I first have to--
-No, now or never. -Then I say no.
We love each other. We're having a baby.
One hundred thousand for you.
No!
This isn't the end of the world
Stranded on life and art
And the game goes on
Are you stealing my picture?
-Come on, Ringo, let's go! -I never want to see you again!
Ah, something new for a change.
-Hannes, stop it! -What did that fool do to you?
That's not you. You'd never do something like that!
That's you in me, not Ringo. Come on, Ringo, let's go.
-Hannes, we're happy this way. -What?
-And we don't need your money. -Leave her alone!
Dad! Stop it!
Dad! Get off of him!
Dad!
Dad! Stop it!
Go away!
-Hello, Mr. Tsara. -Hello!
Quiet.
Well, well, well.
Did I forget something?
We'd invited my father to dinner and wanted to talk about your--
Oh, I'm such an idiot. Yes.
Too many appointments.
I'm heartbroken.
If you're hungry, there's something on the stove.
Since when do you smoke?
Since when do you lie?
No idea?
No.
-Congratulations. -For what?
Oh, right, the power of attorney.
Why didn't I marry your brother?
He smells better, looks better. And he's a lot smarter than you.
Yes. Why?
Maybe out of love? I forgot.
Maybe you should've asked yourself
before we started to build this house.
And I sink my inheritance into this construction site.
-You have your wife's key? -Of course.
Thank you.
-Yes, hello. -Forgive me, Sheikh Ringo.
If this is bad timing, I could call back later--
I'm at Schönau Castle in the Black Forest
at a benefit for children's cancer research.
What's so urgent?
I wanted to apologize again that it didn't work out before.
But I have your present ready now.
The gift of trust. Even more as an apology, so to speak.
You wanted that in euros, right?
The purchase contract is at the notary.
You could sign it directly, if time permits at some point.
Yes, that's exactly the problem.
Otherwise, I would have to sell the villa to another--
No. If you have already prepared everything
so nicely, Mr. Tsara--
Yes, don't even mention it.
Then I try to make it by 4:00 p.m.
Four p.m., one moment.
Yes, that could be arranged. So at 4:00 p.m.--
Preferably at the villa, please.
Oh, even better. Please excuse me for being so ignorant,
do you drink champagne in Qatar?
Sometimes. We'd rather bathe in it.
Yes.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Stress?
Terrible.
But you like it.
What makes you say that?
Dilan, can we? I don't have much time today.
I'm coming. Well.
This shitty home association is stressing you out, isn't it?
Why ask so hypocritically? You're against it too?
Yes, but for different reasons.
Right. You're just against everything dad does.
Especially the way he does it.
No, that's not how it works.
You can't throw everything away and then complain.
I won't say anymore.
Yes, you would've done everything better
if you had taken over the company one day.
And that's why you are my great hope.
Yes, only I'm not you.
You know that very well, I'm second best.
He has someone in you who doesn't constantly blame him
for controlling, manipulating and--
Shut up, Carla, please!
Abandon the family for world-improvement
and then crawl back when you need money.
I would feel taken advantage of as well.
We only asked for a loan for an apartment.
Go ahead, lie to us, fool us,
instead of coming to us when you're in trouble.
Like you, do you tell us about your difficulties?
Okay, that's enough.
Can we continue somewhere else? I-- No.
We don't have to talk anymore. Until you're all alone.
I don't have to watch it any longer.
How you live in a derelict house
with two or three children in your stomach,
to show us how decadent we are. Really? No, I don't have to.
Miss, how are you?
One moment.
Ringo?
Yes, 3:45 at the train station
across from the Swiss National Museum.
And I would like the-- One moment.
The Audi S8 Edition.
And could I maybe have an Arab driver?
Yes, I won't tell you the whole name.
But just write Yussuf Ahmed Ringo Al Thani.
Yes, just the way you say it.
Mr. Al Thani?
With whom do I have the pleasure?
Amun Hamoudi. I'm honored.
Translate. "Prince", Arabic.
Ringo.
Where are you from, Amun?
If I wanted to speak to you in Arabic,
I would've asked you in Arabic.
Of course, I'm sorry.
Yes, where from?
Zamalek. Cairo. Do you know Cairo?
Yes, somewhat. It's too cramped. And way too stuffy and so loud.
Yes, definitely.
I was lucky enough to grow up in a big mansion.
My family is one of the most respected.
I grew up in the jet set, so to speak.
Inshallah.
In sha alah.
This is my mailbox, speak after the beep.
Ringo, if you hear this, give me a call.
Yes. That would seal the deal. Congratulations.
The palace is yours.
Wow, that was really--
I've never gone through this so quickly.
Congratulations from me too.
There you go.
Your Majesty.
New life blooms from the ruins.
Today I wish you and Qatar Global Invest
health, success and fulfillment.
In sha alah.
When Muhammad isn't looking, we're drinking champagne.
Thank you. Have a nice evening.
Yes. Thank you.
Could you, please?
Your Majesty.
It's a Swiss specialty. I hope you are not diabetic.
And...
Whenever you need something.
The Tsara family is your family too.
I can already see in your eyes
how you're reorganizing everything.
What would you change in this parlor?
Not that much. Stylish. No swank.
Definitely.
Maybe some art on the walls. Doesn't have to be famous.
Contemporary as a contrast.
I like that. Art is important. Maybe a little Van Gogh.
This is where I would put your office.
You don't need much. A magnificent desk and--
Excuse me.
I like to dream too.
How many employees does Qatar Global Invest have?
None yet.
But-- But the company exists.
Of course. The company exists. With an account in Doha
and a bit of seed money from my dad.
That's about 7 billion. Yes, 7 billion.
You can invest a little with it in Switzerland.
Does that mean you're looking for a CEO first?
A friend of mine's a headhunter. If you want to--
How much does a CEO earn in a small company in Switzerland?
Switzerland is expensive.
120,000?
Well, 120,000 is not quite enough.
I mean, monthly.
Per month? Yes, that's more like it. That's--
Would you be willing to work for that salary?
Me?
Oh, I'm sorry.
That was a bit spontaneous. Sorry. I have to go.
I really appreciate your offer. And I've already decided.
I-- I accept your offer.
Great. You start in three months,
or how long is your notice period?
Tomorrow. I am resigning without notice.
No, don't do that.
You don't know how much I want to.
Yes, I'm delighted, of course.
All my life I've waited for this day.
You make me very happy, Sheikh Ringo.
Very quickly...
What would you think if we did
an inauguration apero riche here soon?
APERO RICHE = RECEPTION WITH APPETIZERS
-I don't know. -To officially introduce
Qatar Global Invest.
-I have enough contacts. -I don't know.
Sure. I have to go.
Appointments. You know how it is. I'll be in touch.
-Ringo? We're here. -Close the door?
Yes.
-Start unpacking. -Okay.
Ringo?
On the day of wrath. You remember?
Omar Suleiman was Vice President.
I was interrogated by the military.
I was the founder of Kifaja
and the April 6th Movement with Ahmed Maher.
They wanted to put me in jail.
But then my father let me fly out
from Cairo to Rome on a private plane.
Everything could've been so good after the Arab Spring.
This is my mailbox,
-speak after the beep. -Shit, what's going on?
Now we're out of cat food. You can leave that open.
A really impressive life. Would you drive me again, Amun?
Of course, Your Majesty.
I insist.
Villa Imperial is sold for 17.9 million.
Congratulations!
Winners smell completely different. "L'Chaim!"
L'Chaim!
This is my mailbox, speak after the beep.
Ringo, it's me again. I--
Please get in touch.
Ringo, can you please call me back?
This is my mailbox, speak after the beep.
What's going on?
He doesn't answer.
What's going on? Did something happen?
Please get in touch, please.
How does my new millionaire smell?
I've always put you down. Will you forgive me?
I don't know yet.
Pretty cool, huh?
Nobody pushes them around anymore.
I need a beer right away!
Are those blanks?
I have the money.
Where's Ringo?
Okay, where's the money?
-Not until I see my boyfriend. -He's not here. Look around.
Where did you take him? Where is he?
No worries. He's alive. Give us the cash.
Where is he?
Calm down, we'll take you there. It's not far.
-Okay, let's go. -Then you give us the dough?
-Show us. -Okay.
-Show us the money. -Back off!
If you try to trick us--
If something happens to Ringo, forget it!
Shut up, dude. Get dressed.
You go first. Go!
-Hello. -It broke down?
Yes. The fuel line or something.
It's hard with one hand. Could you maybe hold the flashlight?
-It might be faster. -May I ask what's in there?
A Bündner nut cake. And a present for my wife.
I distract her.
You take her out.
What if she doesn't have the money?
Too bad for her.
Today is the day, Urs.
Okay. Yes.
Okay.
-Yes. -You're so clumsy.
-Sorry I'm out of practice. -Yes.
There.
Yes.
Nobody's here.
Yes, of course.
I'll take you there.
Ringo?
-Ringo! -Ringo! Come out!
Everything's fine.
Yes, everything's okay.
Ringo?
Your wife is here, she has the money.
-Ringo? -Nobody's here.
The money. Put it on the ground.
-You bastards. -Put it on the ground.
He's not here.
Put that rock down.
Put the money on the ground.
Where is he?
We don't know.
-We don't know anything! -Drop the rock!
-Nothing! -Drop the rock!
Just the fucking bugs crawling under our skin.
Exterminator,
-bring me the poison-- -Stop it!
Yes, come on, Urs. Make us happy, okay?
Yes, come on. Urs!
Okay.
And now run. Run as fast as you can.
I can feel them. They run.
It will work out.
Pick him up.
Drag him to the bog.
Drag him to the bog!
Go on.
I can feel it. Today it'll work.
Don't give up.
Don't give up. You can do it.
Keep swimming. Yes, they can do it.
One has to make it.
Pius.
Cha-ching.
Keep moving.
They can do it. Yes.
-Keep moving. -Keep moving. Further.
Yes, you. Come to mommy.
-Don't give up. Keep moving. -Yes, very good.
I'm stuck.
Keep going, don't give up.
I'm stuck!
Help me.
Help me!
Come on, keep on swimming.
