"Hey, don't try anything yourself." "Wait for the ambulance." "My breath didn't come back." "But the man came." "At fiirst, he didn't say a thing." "He only looked." "You can't breathe?" "Hold on." "I'll be back." "My bottom itched." "I thought maybe I'd never be able to scratch myself again." "If he doesn't come back..." "I'll be back." "What if he doesn't come back?" "I'll be back." "What if he doesn't..." "Men never come back." "It's the same old story." "First, they went to war and didn't come back... then they demonstrated and didn't come back... and now they go to a spa and don't come back." "It's a damn game!" "But not with me!" "And not with you!" "He came back." "Listen..." "I'm gonna take this and make an incision right here... so you can breathe again." "Okay?" "Here we go." "Breathe!" "Come on, breathe!" "Keep breathing!" "That's good." "I wish I could have told the man... that his sweat smelled tasty." "I guess he'd been sucking on a peppermint drop beforehand." "Now it's stinging in my lungs." "And then he cried." "But I don't think he was really sad." "I felt that if a person wasn't alone, they might be able to fiind happiness in the outside world... if someone like him was around."

" To Sydney?" " Any objections?" "Sydney is just on the other side." "Right through the middle." "I was released after 53 days." "The doctor said it was a miracle." "But the man was gone." "Is everything okay?" "She's coming!" "She's coming!" "She's coming!" "She's coming!" "Come on, Mr. Strack." "Mr. Rummenholler, can't you wait for Sissi?" "Ms. Molke, what are you doing?" "I don't have time to wait all day!" "All clear and bye bye." "Sissi!" "Hello!" "Hey!" "Hello." "My girl." "I thought you were dead!" "Someone saved my life." "What about the cake?" "Sissi gets the fiirst piece." "Which one do you want?" "Doesn't matter." "Sissi, this is really..." "Yeah, well, I'm really glad that..." " I have... we have..." " I'm glad to be here, too, Werner." "You aren't gonna die, are you?" "No, I'm not." "Not in here!" "This is poison!" "It's no good." "Is everything okay, Sissi?" "Sorry, I have to go to my room fiirst." "Hey, what's wrong?"

"I wish I wouldn't keep thinking about that man." "Bodo!" "You're afraid." "Yes." "I come back, and everybody's here, and I'm afraid that nothing will be the same as it was before." "No, you're afraid that everything will be the same as it was before." "I think I have to fiind him." "Can you help me?" "Boom!" "And then?" "There!" "There!" "That's where he came from." " Are you sure?" " There!" "Come on." "Excuse me." "Yep." "Were you working here on May 30th?" "Who wants to know?" "I do." "What about that guy?" "What about him?" "Does he want to know, too?" "Yes, he does." "I got no idea where I was!" "It was ages ago!" "Goodbye." "Goodbye." "You might be able to remember that day." "There was an accident at the traffiic light." "Maybe." "What do you have to do with it?" " I got run over." " Oh yeah?" "You look in good shape now." "Yes, the doctor said it was a miracle." "How nice for you." "After it happened, a man came out of your store and saved my life." "He has short, dark hair... and he was wearing... an army shirt... with buttons like this... and heavy army boots." "I don't know him." "Hi there." "Here, it arrived this morning." " Everything?" " It's all there." "Rie... mer." " Okay." "So long." " Yeah, so long." "Here!" "Riemer!" "This man here." "Listen." "Take your idiot and shove off!" "." " You two are becoming a pain in the ass!" " What?" " Get outta here!" " But..." "He's in the picture." "It says Riemer on the uniform." " You must know him!" " No, I don't!" "And that's it!" "I'll say you hit him because you didn't want a blind idiot in your store." "I'll call the police and he'll confiirm everything I say." "You have no witnesses." "Whatever happens, nobody's going to believe you." "They'll believe him." "Plant your left foot." "Don't move it." "Keep it planted." "Hey!" "Let go!" "Come on..." "Do you remember?" "Well?" "That hurt." "Sorry." "Are you sad?" "What do you want?" "Yeah, what do you want?" "I wanted to see you again." "I don't." "Goodbye." "Werner, you really..." "Well?" "What was it?" "A voice." " From above?" " From the very top... this time." "Should we strap you down?" "I would appreciate it." "I'm just about fiinished." "You have to unstrap me again." " No!" " Oh yes!" "It's important." "But why?" "I gotta knock those teeth out." " All of'em!" " My teeth?" "No, you don't, Werner." "You know that." "Yes..." "I'm sorry." "You're welcome." "Good night, Werner." "Would you like... the sun?" " Hello?" " Hello!" "We can't go on like this." "He isn't here." "I'm not leaving!" "Cheers." "What's your name?" "Simone." "Walter." "Sissi." "Where is he?" "Bodo?" "He'll be here soon." "Are you friends?" "Brothers." "You sure don't look alike." "No." "Your brother..." "what's his problem?" "He's not your type." "Why not?" "He has enough problems." "And you're one too many." "Why?" "'Cause you're a woman." "Does he have something against women?" "No." "Yes, he does." "Why?" "I don't know." "Maybe 'cause his woman is dead." "His wife?" "I see." "Why is she dead?" "An accident at a gas station." "But what's it got to do with you?" "Nothing." "Bodo was on the can, while she was fiilling up." "And it all exploded somehow." "Bodo came out." "Everything got roasted." "His woman did, too." "Somehow, he's still at that gas station, sitting on the pot, just waiting to fiind out it isn't true." "When he leaves that toilet, he wants everything to be okay like before." "He's gotta get away." "Far away." "Off that toilet." "To another country?" "Why are you after him anyway?" "What's going on here?" "You got a visitor." "I'm gonna take a shower." "What do you want?" "I'm having trouble sleeping because of you." "Once I fall asleep, I dream about you." "Are you nuts?" "You don't even know me!" "No, but I have to fiind out if it means anything that you were under the truck... or if it was just a coincidence." "I want to know if my life has gotta change and if you're the reason." "Come on!" "Goodbye!" "What's up?" "What's up?" "Huh?" "Get lost!" "Get lost!" "Damn it!" "But why?" "Hey!" "Come on!" "That's enough!" "Go away!" "Get out of here!" "What're you doing?" "What's wrong with you?" "Walter?" "Where is Walter?" "Bodo, Bodo..." "Bodo!" "We have to get this going soon."

"Your whole life is different." "You don't want to do it." "We don't want to kill you either." "We just want to get out." "Okay?" "So you aren't gonna do it." "You're not gonna do it." "You're not..." "Freeze!" "Hands up!" "Don't move!" "I said, don't move!" "Freeze!" "I said freeze!" "What?" "Go away!" "Get outta here!" "What are you doing here?" "You can't do that." "You have to put away the gun." "What?" "You can't shoot now." "That isn't the plan." "You understand?" "Please." "Please... please..." "No!" "Stop it!" "Please..." "Let's get out of here." "Come help me." "Hurry!" "Come and help us!" "To the hospital!" " What... what hospital?" " Any hospital!" "Just move it!" "The money?" "Everything's gonna be okay." "It's not so bad." " Hey there!"
