YOUR PACKAGE IS HERE!
How do I feel?
Angry, mostly.
I get angry at people on the street who walk too slow.
I get angry at the supermarket when someone picks up an item
and puts it back down in the wrong place.
I get angry at young people for being on their phones.
I get angry at old people just for being old.
I get angry at nose piercings.
At mugs with funny slogans.
TIME FOR THERA-TEA
At bald men, and people who don't know what they want to order
by the time they get to the counter.
At people looking at me like I'm some Make-A-Wish kid
who's just said when I grow up, they want to be a professional basketball player.
Even though you know they've literally got weeks left to live.
And you're like,
"Seriously? Kid, come on.
You're like a baby bird.
Look at your tiny hands. You can barely hold your sippy cup.
Do you really think you've got any chance of becoming a basketball player?
You might want to start managing those expectations there,
you dumb, sweet little angel!"
DAY 80
Have you spoken to Dedo about this?
Dedo's always trying to be so positive.
And I know he's trying to help,
but sometimes I don't want to be positive, you know?
Have you thought any more about the anti-depressants?
They might help you feel better.
This is the thing.
Everyone thinks that I want to feel better.
My daughter is missing!
Why would I want to feel better about that?
It's this horrible, churning, stabbing feeling in my gut
that is going to help me find her.
And I will find her, if I have to scour every inch of this earth.
I will find her.
Okay, well, have a think about what we discussed.
And I will see you again next week.
- Everything all right? - Yes...
I was just admiring your...
What would you call this?
- That's a dog. - Right, a dog.
It's beautiful.
- Thank you. - Having some renovations?
Something like that.
- All right then. See you next week. - Yes.
DAY 80
DAY 0
- Goal! Get in! - Yes! Come on!
I have always felt sorry for the fathers of missing girls.
There it goes! Nice.
No matter what they do, they always seem suspicious,
as if they have some dark secret.
Come on, pass it! Pass it!
So, did you talk to Carlotta?
About the fishing trip?
My sister's boyfriend was just at Lake Walchen.
Said he was catching trout as big as his leg!
I don't know if I can do it, man. Money's kind of tight right now.
- Toni! Awesome! - Shit.
Sorry, I didn't mean to be insensitive.
It's so shitty about these layoffs, man.
Twenty years' service and they just drop you like you're nothing.
Hey, pass the ball!
You'll be fine. You'll find something.
It's a brave new world, my friend.
Guys like you and me, we're no longer fit for purpose.
Too bad.
How did Carlotta take it?
Pretty well actually.
You haven't told her, have you?
I'm just waiting for the right moment!
Tonight, I'll tell her tonight!
Oh, no. Shit. I have to go.
Here. Ah! Gotta go.
Yo, Dedo!
Hey! Are you Andy Möller or what? It's not synchronized swimming.
It's not their fault.
I mean, we all have an idea of what a grieving mother looks like.
That's deeply ingrained into our consciousness.
But fathers?
They always look like they have some kind of dark, dirty secret.
- And the truth is... - Shit.
- ...they probably do too. - Oh, God.
But don't we all have a secret nobody should know?
Shit.
Oh, no.
Hey, honey. I'm so sorry.
I'm minutes away.
I got stuck behind a tractor.
I will be there, I promise.
No, I haven't had anything to drink!
No, Carlotta, of course I wouldn't drive if I'd had a drink.
I know-- I know you do.
Fine. I may have had one light beer.
Carlotta, hello?
Oh, man. Dang.
Shit.
Oh, no.
Oh, no, no, no.
Dedo, what the hell is wrong with you, you idiot?
I'm such an idiot.
Oh man, oh man. Carlotta will kill me.
So the crucial question is, what kind of secrets do they have?
SORRY!
DAY 0
DAY 80
I first heard about the illegal animal trafficking trade
when I saw a video of a pangolin walking around on its hind legs
like a cute old man who dropped his keys.
Pangolins are the most illegally trafficked mammals in the world
and are in danger of being wiped out.
Oh, my God, no!
How can these adorable creatures be on the verge of extinction
when I have literally only heard about their existence right this second?
That was when I knew it was my responsibility
to educate people what I was learning at the same time.
Lenka Nemcová?
She is the owner of the yellow Beetle.
"Investigative influencer"?
What the hell does an investigative influencer do?
Same thing as us, I assume, only with more likes.
That's Wanda Klatt.
- You sure? - Yeah.
Could just be coincidence?
Even if it's a coincidence, she was in the same place at the same time.
Maybe she saw something that could help us.
We need to find her.
I'll contact our colleagues in the Czech Republic.
How do you slide into someone's DMs?
Yes, sorry. Vending machine's broken and the cafeteria's run out of regular milk.
It's pea milk.
How do you milk a pea?
Any news on the van?
Right, yes.
I'm about halfway through.
Halfway?
Turns out a lot of people in Sundersheim drive shitty black vans.
Okay, let's split the rest.
Let's go.
WANDA COME HOME
Okay, so we've done nine houses and we have six bugs left.
So if we do all the remaining 53 houses, that's another 47 bugs,
but I think we're going to want multiple bugs for some of them,
so I'm rounding that up...
to 60.
Then factoring in mortgage, bills and the usual expenses,
plus the fact we won't be getting our salaries for the next month...
it's gonna cost us 62,477 euros and 66 cents.
I was thinking we could use the money my dad left me.
It's just sitting there in that account.
Right, sure, but...
I thought that money was for the kids to go to college?
There's no point saving for Wanda's college fund
if we don't have a Wanda.
Dedo?
He would want this.
And when we're done,
Ole can sell the cameras on the black market again,
and then we'll get some of it back.
Whatever it takes.
That's what we said.
- Yes. - Yes?
Good. Great.
Okay, I'll tell Ole to order more bugs.
Oh, yeah, one other thing.
So I know it's a slight change of plan,
but I think we should hit the Roths next.
- The Roths? - Yeah.
As in your therapist and her husband? They seem kind of boring.
Dedo. Honestly, she was acting super weird this morning.
There's something going on down in their basement.
- Okay. Sure, whatever you want. - Yeah?
Great, I already called her
and said we need an emergency couple's session this afternoon.
Couple's session? Like couple's therapy?
Yes, but it's just an excuse to get in and plant the bugs.
- Right. - Appointment is booked for 3:00 p.m.
Dedo?
- Is everything okay? - Yeah.
You seem a bit distracted.
No. Yes, I just remembered something.
Karl asked me if I could help him out with this thing, but--
Yeah.
So three o'clock at the Roths'?
- Yes. - Yes.
- Three o'clock. - Yes.
- Hello. - Yes?
I am looking for the owner of a black van.
A Mercedes van?
Oh, my grandson has a van.
Great, is it black?
No, red.
Okay. Did your grandson ever have a black van?
I'm not sure, but he likes big cars.
Sorry, my memory isn't what it used to be.
Is your grandson home?
No, but would you like me to give him a message?
Please have him call me.
All right. I will try not to forget.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
Special task force. Fancy.
Dedo.
Hi.
Come in.
Well, my dear brother-in-law. To what do I owe this unexpected pleasure?
Oh, I was just in the neighborhood.
Still got your old man's van out the front I see?
Ah, God. I need to get rid of that thing.
I feel bad just dumping it, you know?
But it's really messing with my whole metrosexual, entrepreneur chic aesthetic.
Right.
But I assume you didn't come here to talk about old cars.
I don't think I've seen you since you set the cops on me.
Right, well, about that--
About what? You telling them I was a suspect?
Yeah, that, I shouldn't have said that.
And, Rüdiger, for the record, I don't think you're a--
Textbook sex pest?
Right.
I was out of line, Rüdiger,
and I understand why you're upset,
so I'm sorry.
Well, that's big of you to come here and say that.
- Mano a mano. - Yes.
Even if it did take you months. But I accept your apology.
Great.
I mean, you have to admit, you're kind of a weird dude.
What?
Just, with the ponytail and the leather vest and all this stuff.
- I mean, look at this place. - That's art, Dedo.
And you're always talking about women,
but I've never actually seen you with a girlfriend.
- What's up with that? - Dedo.
Right, yes, anyway...
I'm really sorry. Truly.
Thank you. That means a lot.
Really.
Come on, let's hug it out.
- Come on. - Okay.
Yes. Okay, great.
Good.
Oh, there was one other small thing.
I need to borrow some money.
SUNDERSHEIM POLICE DEPARTMENT
Did you know that you can buy a tiger on the dark web for 25,000 euros?
That's cheaper than a secondhand Mercedes SLK.
What were you doing in Sundersheim?
Wildlife crime?
- 30,000? - Rüdiger, I'm in big trouble.
Surely, the fact I came to see you shows how desperate I am.
I'm sailing on a sea of shit in a paper boat
with a broken paddle and a life jacket with super toxic--
Okay, I get it, Dedo.
Stop with the metaphor massacre. It's horrible.
I'll pay you back, with interest. I promise.
What about Carlotta's inheritance money? Can't you use that?
I messed up.
I got laid off and I had to dip into our savings.
I thought I could just find another job, you know?
Work some extra shifts till I'd paid it back, but--
- Oh, my God, Dedo. - You're my last chance.
Look, even if I wanted to help you, I can't right now. I'm not very liquid.
I've just made a few expensive purchases.
What kind of expensive purchases?
That is none of your business.
You have to talk to Carlotta.
Oh, God, when she finds out that you lied to her. Oh, God.
Yes, I know, I know, Rüdiger. She will leave me.
Maybe I can still scrape together 10 or 15,000.
Thank you, Rüdiger. That would really help me a lot.
Thank you very much.
But you have to promise me that you'll talk to Carlotta.
The next chance you get.
Yes.
Of course.
Dedo, is there anything you would like to share with your wife?
No, nothing off the top of my head.
Carlotta, why was this session so important for you today?
Well, it's been difficult lately.
For both of us.
Sometimes I just don't feel...
seen.
It often feels like--
like I'm holding up the sky.
How do you mean?
I know I have some anger issues,
and that can be difficult for Ole and for Dedo.
Yeah, that's true. It's...
It's like there's this fire in my stomach,
but that fire is the furnace that's driving everything forward.
And I worry that if I let the fire die down, then...
who will keep us all going?
I see. And what do you think about that?
Well, I guess...
last year I had a hiatal hernia,
which caused very bad acid reflux,
so it sounds kinda like that.
But I stopped drinking milk and that's really helped.
How good would you say your communication is?
- Terrible. - Great. Wonderful.
Seven out of ten, I'd say.
Room for improvement.
Dedo, are you and your wife having sex?
You mean are we...
Is that a real question?
I thought this was just about...
feelings and stuff.
Physical intimacy is very important in a marriage.
It fosters intimacy and can let us express the feelings
that we struggle to articulate with words.
Are you having regular intercourse?
Is your heating on? It's pretty...
It might help you feel more like human beings again
instead of simply Wanda Klatt's parents.
I think maybe today wasn't a sweater day.
It's very important to make an effort for one another
in a relationship.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Yes? - Could I use the bathroom?
Yes, of course.
Of course, it's just down the hall. I'll show you.
Yes.
- You take in here. I'll get the hallway. - Okay.
- Last door on the right. - Yes, thank you.
Could I maybe get a glass of water?
- Of course. - Thank you.
Come on. Come on.
These are-- These are really beautiful.
What would you call it?
- That's a dog. - Right.
Okay. Well, that went pretty well.
Another one down.
Nice improvisation back there by the way.
Keeping her distracted with all the feelings. Great work.
Are you coming or...
I think I'll walk back.
The weather's nice. I could use some fresh air.
Okay. Everything all right, or...
- I'll see you at home, okay? - Okay.
MISSING!
- Yo. - Hey.
- Look who's here. - What's up?
I have to order some more stuff for our project.
Can I come by later?
You guys have a project? Cute.
Shut up, Kevin.
Ole's just helping me with a presentation. He's super smart.
I'm sure.
You're Wanda Klatt's little brother, right?
I'm really sorry. That must be horrible.
Yeah, it sucks. Your sister was hot.
- Jesus, Kevin. - Dude.
- What? She was hot. - Yeah.
You can't say that.
- I gotta go. - Bye.
What a weirdo.
- What do you want with Ole Klatt? - Dude, he just lost his sister.
How do you even know him?
It often feels like-- like I'm holding up the sky.
Oh, God, when she finds out that you lied to her. Oh, God.
Dedo, is there anything you would like to share with your wife?
I messed up.
Whatever it takes.
That's what we said.
- She will leave me. - Dedo, this is serious.
You have to promise me that you'll talk to Carlotta.
Whatever it takes.
WE BUY ANY CAR! CASH ON THE SPOT
Rüdiger?
Sorry about Kevin earlier by the way.
He's a troll, but he can be pretty funny.
That's okay.
So, how many of these things should I order?
Twenty? How many places is she planning on bugging?
Who knows?
That's going to be expensive. You know that, right?
- Do I still get commission? - Of course.
Twelve thousand euros.
Your mom's such a badass.
- Sweet. - Okay.
Okay. Done.
There you go, dear.
Thank you, dear.
Are you and your husband having sex, dear?
Son of Agamemnon with O.
Odysseus.
No. With five letters.
Please don't go, Anita. Please stay.
I'm sorry, Harald, but it's over.
Anita.
Carlotta?
- Don't say that. - Carlotta!
- We don't need the money. - Oh, here you are.
Anything interesting?
Oh, baby, you think I was with you
- for your sparkling personality? - She has to go and live in a home.
- I'm sorry. - Who?
- Goodbye. - Mrs. Hessel. The real one.
The fake one is leaving him right now.
Anita.
That's karma, my friend.
Anita!
- You want to see something cool? - Anita!
Come upstairs. I need to show you something.
It's your dad's old van.
I can see that. What's it doing here?
Well, I was out driving, and I happened to go past Rüdiger's,
and I saw the van just sitting there and I thought--
You were at my brother's?
Yeah, just briefly, you know...
So, did you talk to him?
Yeah.
Okay.
So you guys made up?
Yeah.
Anyway, look, you said we needed a better backstory, right?
So people would let us in.
So here it is.
Klatt and Son.
We are a small family-run electrical company.
We go from house to house and offer to check people's smoke detectors.
Free of charge. On behalf of the city.
Does it even drive okay?
Yeah, like a dream. Just needs a bit of a wash.
Not a problem. I can fix that.
All right, well. It's actually not a completely horrible idea.
I'll take that.
Dedo. Where's our car?
Oh, I sold it.
- You what? - Carlotta, we don't need two cars.
Oh, right, and before I forget.
This should get us through the next week.
Then I'll withdraw the rest of the money when we need it.
Carlotta, it's gonna be great.
Ole will get us the bugs, I'll get us some snazzy uniforms.
Then we just cruise from house to house saying...
Hello. We're from Klatt Electric.
- We are here on behalf of... - The City Council.
Did you know that in Germany, every year...
- Over 400 people... - Die in a house fire?
Ninety-five percent of them due to smoke inhalation.
Don't let a dead battery mean a dead you!
DONATION BIN
POLICE ARE CLUELESS
MISSING GIRL WORRIED SINCE NUPPELWOCKEN NIGHT
- What? - I'm heading out.
Seriously? You're going out again?
Baby, I have to work.
You've been out all day, Lukas.
That's Lukas Novak.
He plays for the Sundersheim SV.
Don't come at me with all your hormonal bullshit.
Hey.
Seriously? Lukas?
I take care of you don't I?
I pay for the food and the clothes and the crib
and the stupid futuristic pram you decided we need!
What else do you want?
Maybe I'd just like to actually see my boyfriend from time to time?
Or have a bit of support.
If you want support, call your mother. I'm so sick of this shit!
- He's a real asshole. - Yes.
But, to be fair, that's sort of what you want from a good center back.
Though obviously not from the father of your unborn child.
And how's the old Hessel?
Anita.
Hands up. Or I'll shoot.
Dear God, Dedo.
Please don't hurt me. Please.
Holy shit.
- Oh, God. What is going on there? - And-- And if I give it to you?
- Will you let me go? - I'm not making any promises! Let's go!
See? I told you there was something weird going on in that basement.
Do we call the police?
We can't keep giving the police anonymous tips.
At some point they'll start getting suspicious.
So what do we do? That guy's got a gun.
We need to get a look inside that basement.
I've got an idea.
Okay.
Dedo? How are you getting on?
Good. Just give me a minute.
I just have to get the thing through the thing and then... There.
- Can you see me? - Yes, you need to trim your nose hair.
Yeah. Very funny.
Do you know which yard is theirs?
No, but it definitely has to be on that side.
I'll try it now.
Okay.
Oh. Up!
Up! That's the wrong yard.
Timmy, come in. Dinner time.
Up!
Carlotta, what's happening?
I don't know. I think it's a dog?
A dog? What the hell am I supposed to do now?
I don't know!
Sit.
Wow.
I can't believe that actually worked.
Me either.
Good boy. Now, drop.
- That's it. Now, pull it up. - Okay. Okay.
Oh, God.
Okay. I'm winding in.
Go, go, go.
- Do you think you can get a bit closer? - I'll try.
Sorry.
It's fine.
Okay.
That's it. I can see the basement window.
You need to get closer.
It's about another 15 feet and...
to the left.
The other left. The left that's on the left.
That's as far as I can go. I'm gonna have to cast again.
Are you sure that's a good idea?
Carlotta, I've had my casting technique praised by professionals.
You know when Karl and I went to the Rhine last summer.
Yes. Yes. I remember.
Fifteen feet you said?
15 to 20 feet. I think.
- And then at 10:00. - What?
10:00, you know. Like a clock.
So, 12:00 is forward and the basement window is at 10:00.
You just said left?
This is a terrible idea.
Okay, I'll just do it.
Oh. Wow!
- Dedo. That was fantastic! - Yeah. Thank you.
You're only a couple of feet short.
Oh, God! Oh, God!
Oh, God. Something is happening.
I can hear Mrs. Roth. She sounds terrified.
I'm going again.
Come on now.
Fly, little pretty, fly.
Okay.
Yes!
You did it.
Now lower it. Let it down a bit.
Down.
- Now take your clothes off! - No! Fine.
Your husband can't save you now.
Now I shall have my way with you!
- Turn around! - Yes.
Carlotta. Carlotta, do you see something? What's going on there?
- Oh, my God. - Yes!
It's-- It's a false alarm.
You can reel it...
- Don't stop. - ...back in now.
- Bad girl. - False alarm?
- What is that supposed to mean? - For the love of God, reel it in!
- So they were... - Let's never speak of this again.
GD 2 C U BEFORE THX FOR HELPING
BRO YOUR DAD CAN NO LONGER FART WITHOUT YOUR MOM NOTICING
WHATT ABOUT ?
I'M OON IT.
Holy shit.
That's not good.
Sorry, guys.
Come on.
I'M ABOUT TO LEAVE RED ALERT!
Ole's on his way.
What do we tell them why we're at their door?
We'll have to wing it.
Hello?
Sorry to bother you.
It hurts so much!
Okay. Don't panic! We're coming in.
We're coming in. How do we get in?
I've got this.
Seriously?
By the time you get that open, the kid will be in kindergarten.
Don't worry! We're here!
Hurry, Dedo.
Don't worry. We have everything under control. I work at the hospital!
You're an administrative assistant.
The baby is coming!
Just a minute.
Come on. Come on, come on. Dedo.
You need to let me focus.
Come on, baby. You just need to feel the catch.
Be at one with the catch.
This is never going to work.
Caress it, tenderly. Come on.
Bathroom window was open. Come on.
I really think I was close then.
Ms. Beetz, we are here to help.
Get me some hot water. Dedo, get some towels.
It hurts so much!
Ms. Beetz. Lean back and relax.
Make yourself comfortable.
Is the baby here?
It's almost here.
- Towels! - Dedo. Dedo. Hold her hand.
Yeah. Yeah.
HAVE YOU TALKED TO MY SISTER YET?
Close your eyes and think of your deepest secret.
The one that you will never ever be able to tell anyone.
The one where you know that if people found out,
your life would change.
Forever.
Maybe it's a sad secret.
Anita!
Or it's a dirty secret.
Or a very dark secret.
Hello, Detective Rauch.
Thanks for your inquiry at the Czech border police.
After checking our records, we regret to inform you
that Ms. Nemcová recently passed away after a car crash.
So think about your secret and then ask yourself:
How far would you go to prevent others from uncovering this secret?
