You're as cold as ice ♪
You're willing to
sacrifice our love ♪
[sings along to "Cold As Ice"] ♪
Willing to sacrifice our love ♪
You never take advice ♪
Someday you pay
the price I know ♪
I've seen it before It

[car door slamming]
[man singing] I'm
closing the door ♪
[eerie musical flourish]
[man] Hmm.
Ha. You know that chemical UV
filters cause cancer, right?
They also affect your hormones
and impact sperm quality.
So just stop pretending
this will save your life.
Let's get to work.
[foreboding music playing]
[Moritz] Sorry.
[talking angrily,
unintelligible]
[inhales nervously] Okay, I
can see how this looks to you.
[gulps] But this time it
really wasn't my fault.
It was all because of Dan.
Daniel fucking
You're fucking stupid.
BonusLife.
[Moritz] Pirmin
fucking Riffert.
To understand that, we should
start from the beginning.
[theme music playing]
[Moritz] If you illegally sell drugs,
you have to deal with the consequences.
[news anchor] The police's
cybercrime unit has convicted
[news anchor 2] The crown prosecutor
presses charges against
[news anchor 3] MyDrugs operator
allegedly traded a tonne of drugs.
[news anchor 4] Children's bedroom
dealer wanted recognition
[news anchor 2] Children's
bedroom dealer confesses
[news anchor 5]
dealer Moritz Z.
[woman] The defendant is
found guilty on all charges
and is sentenced to
eight years in prison.
[man] Hey guys, have
you seen that wimp?
[door being locked]
[Moritz] Eight years.
Quite a long time.
During which I wanted to found
a startup and change the world.
I mean, a real startup.
Yes, legal.
I didn't want to do
anything illegal any more.
There was no reason to lock me up
for eight with full-on criminals.
[buzzer sounding]
Anyone who's ever seen a prison movie
knows they're all sinister characters.
Tough guys.
You're in my way.
You muppet.
[Moritz] Who only
understand one language.
[Moritz groans]
Total nonsense, of course. Most
of the guys were really nice.
Aren't you the guy from MyDrugs?
Yeah?
[chuckles] Boys,
this is the maniac!
[Moritz] Everyone thinks
there are only evil people.
You owe me three tuna fish.
[Moritz] But they are normal
people, who at some point,
maybe for a good reason,
did something that doesn't conform
to the rules of the system.
[Lisa in video] were not
ready for the digital world.
Yet MyDrugs is as simple
as it is efficient.
An ultra-modern shopping system
and delivery by padded envelope.
Ingeniously simple.
Simply ingenious
A spending spree becomes
a "bargain high".
I really think you're the
smartest guy in here, bro.
Heard of Schopenhauer?
"The task is not so much to
see what no one has seen,
but to actually think what
nobody has yet thought,
about that which everyone sees."
That's exactly what you've done.
Ah!
- What are you in here for?
- Long-term strategic decision, bro.
When I get out in a few weeks,
someone will owe me a bunch of money.
I'll use that to start
my first business.
What are you gonna do?
Uh Start something new.
It has to be legal, completely.
I have some ideas
Hey, let's start
something together, eh?
Bro, it would be an honour
to start something with you.
M1000!
[laughs confidently]
[Moritz groans]
[inmate] Bro!
Here's my number.
Call me when you get out.
Let's start something.
- We can change the world.
- Safe.
If not,
I'll find you.
[menacing music playing]
Oh Moritz, I'm just
kidding. [laughs manically]
[man] Leave the wimp alone.
[Moritz] But I already
had a business partner
who was also my best friend.
Who, thanks to MyDrugs, could
afford his cancer treatment.
You've got much taller.
To make it clear
[Lenny] Mo, fresh trim!
of course I'm not angry with Lenny
that he didn't get me out of there.
[suspenseful music playing]
[police radio, unintelligible]
[shot]
[Moritz] Lenny? Fuck,
they've caught you. No!
- A.W.P. in window. Careful.
- Yeah, I'm already respawning.
Cover me.
[Moritz] The state police gave me a
laptop to work on the MyDrugs cases.
And nobody noticed what
I actually used it for.
Sometimes you even forget
that you're in prison.
Take the AK, I'll use the M4.
- Sure, take the mob.
- Okay, shoot!
- Look out, behind you.
- Huh? Who?
- [man] Excuse me?
- [Lenny] No, for real.
[Guard] You won't be
seeing that again.
[door slams shut]
[Moritz] From then,
it got lonely.
At some point, even your best friend
has something more important to do.
Other people's lives go on.
The worst thing is you
don't get to hear about it.
[buzzer sounding]
Well, at least I didn't have
to stay inside for eight years.
Please don't ask me
what I had to do.
Let's just say, um
Very good behaviour.
I was allowed to return to
my old life after four years.
What are four years when you still
have your whole life ahead of you?
If anything moves in the Bitcoin account
which has that "password you forgot",
we'll be watching
[Moritz] Larry Page only
founded Google when he was 25.
[woman] An impressive talent.
[Moritz] Plus, everyone now knew
what I was technically capable of.
[man] Child prodigy Moritz Z built
Europe's biggest drug store aged 17.
[Moritz] I was sure they
were just waiting for me
to use these skills legally.
[man 2] If it hadn't been illegal,
you'd take your hat off to him.
[Moritz] II was something of an
idol to an entire generation.
[applause]
[applause stops]
[Marie] Maybe his sentence
was extended after all?
[Jens] Please be nice to him.
He's heading into a very,
very difficult time.
[upbeat pop music playing]
[woman] Hey, we're
back with TatütaTalk.
[Jens] They didn't have "Happy
Prison Release", of course.
And so I thought, it's
actually a bit like a birthday.
- Well, a rebirth.
- There's something in that bag.
Little welcome gift from
me. For the fresh start,
[Jens] Marie got everything
through sponsorships. Crazy, right?
You tell them what you do all day and
they just send you a car like this.
Even though I'm the only one
with a driving licence. Crazy!
I've taken a few
safety measures.
And I've installed BeReal.
[Jens] You'll have to spontaneously
take and share photos, without notice.
It's super fun.
Everyone does it now.
Well, actually, nobody
does it any more.
Only old people do it now.
And you. So we know
what you're up to.
- I don't think I'm going
- No BeReal, can't have it.
If you forget, I'll tell
the police where you are.
I can track your phone.
[voice message, woman singing] ♪
Moritz, you made it out of jail ♪
[Lenny] Hey, Mo. It's so
awesome that you're out.
Now I can finally tell you
about large language models.
You won't fucking believe it!
'Course, I'm so happy
that you're back.
We need to celebrate. You
and me, just the two of us.
I reserved a table in the
bar that Fritzi took over.
So, seven, for a few
drinks? I'm paying.
[woman sings] Lenny
and Moritz, reunited ♪
Hey, Lenny. Um
Crazy to hear you.
Well, probably also
crazy to hear me.
Oh, crazy about Fritzi.
But tell me, since when have
we hung out at bars, hm?
Come to mine, just like before.
I probably still have a few
energy drinks. They don't go off.
Then we can focus and brainstorm
a couple of new business ideas.
[Lenny] Yeah, sure, but it'd be great
for me if we could meet at Fritzi's.
[Jens] Ah, so,
Susi, come on now.
[boy] Sorry to disturb you. Could
we maybe take a quick selfie?
- How did you know that I
- Sure, no problem.
- [boy] Cool.
- [Jens] Don't pull like that.
- Great, thanks.
- [Marie] Bye!
[Jens] Oh no. Shit, man.
It would have lasted
until your birthday.
Crazy colour.
Uh, you had no
say in the matter?
No. Marie paid for all of it.
So with her, things are
just going really good.
- [phone chimes]
- Oh, BeReal.
So Quick, or we'll be late.
And that won't go down well.
[Marie] Sit down.
There's something I'd
like to talk about.
I've been thinking about how to
make Mo's rehabilitation work.
All I need's a little bit of
time, a laptop, and internet.
- You have one month to find a job.
- Who says so?
Your probation conditions. Here.
- All this was sent.
- All my post has been opened?
You were in prison, remember?
[Moritz] Yeah. Were there
any media requests in there?
Or job offers? Google,
Microsoft, or something?
[Marie] A request from Netflix.
They wanted to document your life.
Apparently they can't think
new any more. I deleted it.
I read an article about
ex-inmates in Vice.
Most of them relapse because they fail
to integrate into the labour market.
So as long as you're not
hired as an oil rig caretaker
while you're living under my
roof, you better get a job.
Er Maybe try
an apprenticeship?
I could ask at the local bank.
You know that Daniel's mother works there.
Nowadays they do so much with compu
Don't be worrying about
me, okay? I have a job.
As CEO of my new company.
Well, mine and
Lenny's new company.
- [Marie] Because that worked out so well.
- [Jens] Er What kind of company?
A digital supermarket.
You order with the app,
and it gets delivered.
Like Foodora, only
for groceries.
- Ah, so like Gorillas or Flink.
- [Marie] Or Getir?
Foodora doesn't
actually exist any more.
Neither does Gorillas.
Yeah, it's just one
of my many ideas.
I definitely won't be
starting a job at some bank
just because Dan knows the boss.
[sentimental music playing]
[countless alert tones]
[upbeat music playing]
[Moritz] If you want to
start a successful business,
you first need a good idea.
You need to think of something
that nobody else has.
SELF FILLING FRIDGE
Something that improves
people's everyday lives.
Which isn't too easy
when you haven't been part of
everyday life for four years.
[sighs]
But ideas aren't everything.
Steven Spielberg once said, "Every
good idea begins as a bad idea."
That's why it takes so long.
To make sure you don't lose
heart, you need the right partner.
[alert chimes]
[phone rings]
[rhythmic music playing]
Hey!
All right, gangster?
How is your freedom?
Already planning your
next drug empire?
Nah. Four years without
internet was definitely enough.
So, are you going to
build a legal empire?
Yeah, you could
you could say that.
I've had a few ideas but I have
to talk to Lenny about them.
He wants to meet
tonight in Return.
That's mad, yeah?
Lenny in a bar.
Come on, many companies were founded
in bars. Uber, for example. And Reddit.
I don't go to bars.
It'll do you good to socialise.
I'm sure it'll be nice.
Erm, has he been talking to you?
You supposed to persuade me?
What? No. Don't
be so suspicious.
The last four years haven't
been easy for either of you.
- Remember, he's still your best friend.
- Yeah.
- I'll text him, maybe.
- I have to get going now.
I have to pitch a
story to my new boss.
She wants to change things here.
Could be my chance to do something.
Let's speak later.
Maybe.
[sentimental piano
music playing]
[phone chimes]
[Lenny] Yeah, it'll be great.
I hope they play our song.
[song playing via voice message]
Lenny and Moritz, reunited ♪
Okay!
[metallic rattling]
[grunts]
[clears throat]
[light heart-warming
music playing]
- And? Any cool prison tattoos?
- Yes, I actually wanted to get Link.
But the prison tattooist
didn't know Zelda, so
They were right to
put him in prison.
And? How are you? How's
it going with Lando?
Yeah, good. It's a lot of
work with a little one.
- Mo, I
- I'm happy for you guys.
Thanks.
- Before we go in, there's one thing
- Lenny.
It's all okay.
I understand why you
couldn't visit me that often.
It isn't easy when there's a
selfish little monster at home.
And you've got a kid.
Your jokes didn't get any
better while you were in prison.
The important thing
is that we're back
and can finally come up with
a new business idea together.
Come on, a lot of companies
were founded in bars.
Uber, for example.
And Reddit.
Well, maybe not
in bars like this.
[German schlager music playing]
[calling] Surprise!
[cheering, shouts
of joy, applause]
You're finally here.
- You knew about this?
- Maybe.
- Fritzi.
- Shit, you look good.
Same old.
- Hey.
- [Kira] Hello jailbird.
Introducing Lando,
Moritz. Moritz, Lando.
[grunts]
Hey.
Are you as good a
programmer as your daddy?
I'm looking for a potential
COO for my new business.
- So if you
- Haha, absolutely not.
You won't be doing any business
with the Sander family.
[Lenny] I made T-shirts again.
Welcome home.
[Moritz] Thanks, Lenny.
[upbeat pop music playing]
- [laughs]
- [Moritz gulps, gags]
[Kira] Well?
Have you already
argued with Moritz
over whether Han Solo or
Greedo was the first to shoot?
You didn't tell him, did you?
[Moritz] My first. [groans]
You realise what's gonna
happen when Dan shows up?
And that's just a
matter of time
[man] Hey!
[woman] Hey, Dan!
- [man 2] Dan, my boy.
- [Dan] Lenny.
Hey! You're here!
- Moritz, young man!
- [Moritz] Daniel?
Looking well. How's it going?
Wow, you've been working out?
- [man 2] You gonna get another round in?
- [man 3] Hey, Lenny, what's up? All good?
[Lenny] Yeah, old on.
I'll be right back.
Yeah, no, I just need
I'll come back. Sorry.
If it isn't our star
journalist, Lisa.
I have a job planned for you,
okay? You need to interview me.
Moritz, come here a minute.
Dan, the concept of journalism
isn't like that, you see?
I'll pay you. All right?
Why does Dan want
to be interviewed?
Has he set a new sit-up
record? Or did they get back
[Dan] I need someone who
asks the right questions.
Questions you've
thought of yourself?
[Lenny] That's what I
wanted to talk about. Dan
Looks like you guys could
use some shots, couldn't you?
Kira!
Give us three tequila shots!
- Your wife is my best man.
- [Moritz] Just a water for me, please.
You certainly have let rip
since getting out of prison.
What's with you and Dan?
Are you still together?
Nope. Dan's married
to his company.
Dan has a company?
You're not telling me his OnlyFans
channel is registered as a business?
No, these nutrition
supplements for gamers.
Dan's running BonusLife?
Yeah, delivering
all over Europe.
- It's crazy. The comp
- [knocking]
You didn't tell him?
[sighs]
Ah, Lenny.
Hey, erm, still running
BonusLife are you?
Yeah, erm
Best decision of my life.
We're going to the moon.
That is actually our company. Remember?
We came up with the idea together.
Okay, one minute. Listen,
BonusLife was actually my idea.
Another idea. Nutritional
supplements in liquid form.
- As shots for busy gamers.
- The idea is good
An idea you thought
was complete shit.
'cause it's so shit.
Do you have any idea how hard I've
hustled just to make a success of it?
Ah, that's too bad, Dan. It must've
been really difficult for you.
Where have I been?
With fucking offenders!
Hey, hey, I Come
Mo, I did think
that you could
You know what? You can join us.
At BonusLife.
A good programmer like
you we can always use.
And You'll get
shares in the company.
And I thought that two per
cent would be very fair.
What do you say?
Two per cent?
I got prison,
and I get fucking two per cent?
What do you think about that Lenny,
huh? Our idea and we get nothing?
I now work for Dan.
At BonusLife.
[foreboding music playing]
So why didn't you say?
Because
Well, I wanted to, but
I Well, because
I didn't wanna cause any upset.
Time just goes on, and
Man, everything was just
going so well out here. And
You had absolutely nothing.
[melancholic music playing]
Thanks a lot.
It's very considerate of you.
[Lisa] Perhaps he should've
been told earlier.
Pirmin.
[Lisa] Hey, Mo!
Wait. You can't just
leave your own party.
You mean Dan's party.
Oh come on, you're above this.
Yeah, Lenny should
have told you earlier.
It's not about Lenny.
You don't need BonusLife
to be successful.
- Just come up with something else.
- What if I can't?
What if I've missed the boat? I'm 23
and had to google what "side-eye" means.
No one says that any more.
I know!
Maybe Lenny's right, yeah.
I've got nothing any more,
and Dan has everything.
Mo! Hey!
[Moritz] Fuck.
Ow.
Bloody bike!
I can't ride a bike any more.

["These Dishes Ain't Gonna Do

Please, everybody welcome the
genius mind, Daniel Pirmin Riffert!
[Dan] BonusLife!
BonusLife changed my life,
but BonusLife is about you.
Live legendary!
[angry laugh]
[music ends abruptly]
[synthesised drumroll playing]
What do you call a CEO with
no ideas or starting capital?
A fucking loser.
It's perfectly normal to
go through your contacts
and see if you can cash up.
If you don't do anything
illegal, what's more,
does anyone really care
where it comes from?
All right?
[snoring]
[woman talking on TV]
- Moritz.
- I've been thinking it over.
Oh, I'm
I mean, about my future.
If I'm gonna start something
new, I'll need starting capital.
You haven't received strange envelopes
with money over the last few years?
You mean the drug cash?
[distorted dynamic
music playing]
Erm, drug money isn't
what I'd call it.
Well, at first it really helped us
out, when I just had the postman job,
and things hadn't yet
picked up for Marie.
Then, of course, I
was even more pleased
when the envelopes stopped
turning up two years ago.
I knew then that you'd finally
drawn a line under the whole thing.
Yeah, best decision ever.
Erm, I'm just popping out.
To Lenny's.
[front door closes]
Oh.
Oh, it's time for the post.
["Voices of Spring" by
Johann Strauss playing]
[Ilir] Huh? What does he want?
[spoons clinking]
So, tell us, Mo. What's it
really like in a prison?
You've never been to prison?
[Maarten] Moritz?
- Nodding is "no" in Albanian.
- Yeah, I know.
You have to try the honey.
It's homemade.
Absolutely delicious.
We make honey according
to the Chinese model.
- "Shinez".
- Chinese.
[bees buzzing loudly]
People always look to America.
America!
Everyone knows that
China is the future!
- [Maarten] "Shina".
- [Ilir] Productivity is key.
[speaks Mandarin]
As the Chinese say.
"Shinez".
"Chinese".
Anyway, Ilir has been taking a
course at the community college.
Yeah, well, I'm not here
to talk to you about honey.
Uh
Do you remember our deal?
Yeah.
My dad hasn't received a
thing since two years ago.
That's because for over two years
we just can't make a profit.
[Ilir] We've got
out of the business.
But, uh, don't you still
have all those Bitcoins?
The police know
about the account.
If I try to exchange them they'll
be at my door in ten minutes.
Can I please speak to Doro
about the profit quickly?
[sobbing softly]
Smells like burning
rubber, right?
That's because of the tyres.
And also, the body work.
Ah. So it's I thought
that Doro was in there.
[Maarten] Yeah, she is.
Unfortunately, it wasn't
possible to tell them apart.
[man] Wow, you're
tough, but okay.
[Ilir] There's a new
player on the market.
He wanted us out.
But Doro
[soft ticking]
didn't want to accept that.
[Moritz] And that's why they
[Doro] Wanker.
- Yeah. We got the urn on the classifieds.
- [sobs]
But don't worry, we've
got everything for ya.
Here.
This USB stick contains
all the contacts and data.
And here.
No, I'm not doing anything
criminal any more.
[Abnor] Yeah, that's great.
But the phone is just in
case you need a little help.
Or any other favour. As long
as it's nothing criminal.
You know, there's only one
thing that really counts.
Friendship.
["Voices of Spring" by
Johann Strauss playing]
And what about family?
[music stopped abruptly]
And family, yeah.
- True, there really are two things.
- [Maarten] Right. To Doro!
[music starts again,
swelling dramatically]
[music stops]
[Moritz] But when your family
have stopped believing in you
and your best friend has
been poached by a rich kid,
you don't have anything left except
reliance on your own instincts.
Sorry.
[yelling loudly]
[groaning, yelling]
[Moritz] And this instinct says,
if Daniel Pirmin Riffert can manage to
create a business through legal means,
then I should be able
to do it blindfolded.
[soft music playing]
But for the first time in
my life, I had no plan.
And no partner.
[man] 5251.
[knocking, door opens]
I don't want to interrupt for
long. Probably it still fits you.
I bought it for you for
your prom years ago.
I organised a job interview
with Mrs Riffert at the
bank for you, all right?
I know it's not easy for
you the way things are.
They weren't for me either
when I got booted out.
And some days, I
hate my new job.
But then a big package arrives
with an undeliverable address
What I actually want to say is,
every new beginning is hard.
But you must remain a fighter.
We'll find the
right thing for you.
So it's great to have you back.
The most important
thing is family.
And friendship, maybe.

BOWLING TOURNAMENT DONATIONS
[man] Mrs Riffert
should be here soon.
Ah, but you? Don't worry.
You'll get the job, for sure.
They take anyone here. [laughs]
Do you play football?
We have a good team you
know. Really good group.
- No, actually, I can't
- You can go in goal.
Yeah, actually, that is Benni. He
only started working here last year
Couldn't do anything at first. He'd
only ever played football at school.
But now he can curl really good
passes into the corner. [laughs]
Ever heard of BonusLife?
We play against them a lot,
even though we always lose.
Ah, but recently, at
this one tournament,
we substituted Benni on
despite his broken foot,
and he scored the
winning goal! [laughs]
Sometimes you win with the tactic
your opponent least expects.
You should have been
there, and you

Hey, this is a misunderstanding.

- You can't just

- All good, he's with me. Thanks, boys.
Thanks, boys.
- Hey!
- Hi.
What are you doing here?
- Why are you wearing such a strange suit?
- [Dan] Moritz?
Daniel.
What are you doing here?
- Mo just wanted
- to apologize.
I overreacted a
bit at the party.
- Ah! Really
- Yeah, and I'd like to come onboard.
To work here. With the boys.
Are you ser uh
se I mean
The offer still stands, right?
Err Yeah.
Fine.
Great.
And who knows, my two per cent
may be worth millions yet.
Great. So, where can I sit?

I was supposed to let you know when
that Moritz Zimmermann showed up again.
He has.
