An embolism. My god, and then on top of that, so suddenly.
This must be just horrible for you. If there's anything I can do for you, let me know.
I'm doing great
The medication is starting to kick in. The one thing she really needs right now is rest.
I'm sure Hanna will call soon
Listen, we can't do anything more for her right now
The one thing it's IMPERATIVE we do, however, is agree on what we're going to tell the others
Yeah
But not here, come
Hanna's teddy bear
Mr. Schmidt
I was the one who gave it to her
So, Mr. Schmidt has doubtless experienced quite a bit
Yes, she was... she was right at five years old
And all of a sudden she was afraid to fall asleep alone
I told her this teddy would drive away anything bad, and he would look out for her
And that worked?
Yes, after that, she only wanted to fall asleep with him
I can't believe she kept him all these years
Oh, look here... she also wrote something
Oh, too bad she didn't bring him by here herself
Dear Sylvia,
I wish you all the best and I thank you for everything you've done for me.
I'm sending you this little envoy, who you of course will recognize. He's been looking out for me all these years.
From now on, he will protect you.
Lots of Love, Your sister Hanna
Welcome, Mr. Schmidt
What do you think? How will she react when she realizes that... that Hanna is dead?
I have no idea
The state of shock she's in is a type of protective reaction by her psyche
I think the stress of Hanna's death would be too much for her to cope with
Not to even mention - if Father found out that Carla and Hanna were a couple, then...
And you're thinking she could give herself away...?
In her condition anything is possible. For that reason we HAVE to do a good job of shielding her.
Then let's go check on her
Carla?
Chubby?
So! Here's your place of honor.
That's a really great present, isn't it?
Mhm. Particularly, because I know so well how much Hanna always clung to him.
I wouldn't have thought things between her and me could ever be so... so good again
Well, it certainly took long enough
Seriously, though - you and I have reconciled, Hanna and I have drawn closer to each other again...
Oops...
It's been... a pretty lonely time for me since Martin's death
Yeah, you wouldn't let anyone near you
Ultimately, I owe it to Hanna's illness that I feel so alive again
Maybe the three of us will actually become something like a real family again. Maybe.
Yes, that would be nice
== Cheers. == Cheers.
And now...
== What are you going to do? == Thank Hanna.
Over the phone?
Why not?
Oh come on, let's go visit her instead. Then you can thank her personally.
True, actually
Isabell was headed to see us? Is that what you said?
Arno, then... let's go, all right? I think we could maybe be some support for Isabell.
== Yes. == Bye, Charlie. == Goodbye.
I still just can't even believe it!
Lars, can I help you in any way?
Somebody has to tell David. Would you?
I know,... you guys are having a little trouble at the moment, but it's still better than--
Yeah yeah, I'll do it. It's going to be a pretty big shock for him too.
Yeah. And for Sylvia.
Schneider
Hello, Bernd
No, I haven't. I thought she was with you?
See you there
Carla has disappeared
Hello. You know Carla von Lahnstein, right?
== Yes. == Has she been here in the last half hour?
No, sorry, I haven't seen Carla
== Bernd, you really need to keep better tabs on your valuable fiance. == Have either of you seen her?
== Did she discover she couldn't stand your presence anymore? == Better late than never.
I would love to help you with your search, but at the moment... Come, Felix, let's go on up.
== Just a minute. == I can't wait to see Hanna's face!
== You came to see Hanna? == Yes. == Yes, if you don't mind?
I, uh... you can't. I'm... I'm sorry you have to find out about it this way.
Whatever you have to say, please save it for your barber, all right?
Sylvia, I'm being serious
Well, what is it then?
Hanna died this morning
Carla?
I was just really certain she would come here again
Yeah, maybe
Hopefully
I should have told Carla about it
About what?
Hanna had recently been having this premonition
You're saying she... foresaw her death, or...?
I had to promise her not to talk to anyone about it
She kept having this recurring dream. Where--
== I know it. == What do you know??
I've dreamt about my death
Dreamt?! And therefore you think you have to die?!
Hanna, that is absurd!
Hanna is dead
Carla
Are you doing okay?
Hanna is dead
Yes
Come, sit down
You're seriously saying... Hanna is dead?
Come on, macabre jokes like that are beneath even you!
Hanna died this morning, most likely from an embolism
Sorry - it's not me. Well, naturally, of course it is me, but only my voicemail.
I myself am currently... well, wherever. Anyhow, I'm gonna beep and you can talk at me.
Hanna, this is Sylvia. Listen, there's...
This is totally absurd. Please call me back, all right? it's important. Thanks.
Carla! There you are.
Lars, do you guys know... where Hanna is?
So it's true?
Hanna had an embolism
It happened very quickly
No!
== I'm going to take Carla home now. == Right, yeah, I'll come with you.
Listen, uh... we have to be very careful at the castle
No one can be allowed to find out they were a couple. In her condition there's no telling what she'll say.
== Right. == Yeah.
I'm sorry
I can't comprehend this. Hanna did so well getting through the transplant, and then...
== I just received a birthday present from her this evening. == An embolism isn't foreseeable.
Not even by the best doctors
Only Hanna sensed it
What, what does that mean?
She had recurring dreams about her death
But I... I just didn't take it seriously
We had just become closer to each other again. And... now she dies.
Ms. Jones
== My deepest sympathy. == Thank you.
I'm so sorry
I really treasured your sister, she was a person so full of life
Yes, and the construction of the conference center is of course right on schedule. You can count on me.
Carla, are you not feeling well?!
Hanna is...
What about Ms. Novak?
Carla's best friend... she died this morning
== Hanna! == She really needs to lie down and rest.
Come
I thought the kidney transplant had been successful?
It all happened really suddenly
The operation itself actually went well
== This has hit us all really hard. == I'm going to go take care of Carla.
Uh, Count Lahnstein, that won't be necessary. Of course I know that my place is at my fiance's side right now.
Well, but... but your work-related responsibilities?
Of course I will fulfill those later, however the well-being of the family takes precedence
Yes uh, yes, as you wish
Oh and, when it comes to anything medical, ...
Right, I'll take care of that. What Carla needs most right now is rest.
Right, thanks
But you should be sleeping!
I wasn't able to fall asleep all night
I couldn't stop thinking about sitting on the bank of the Rhine with Hanna
She told me she was going to die, but I simply didn't believe her
You can't start blaming yourself now!
I was beside her the whole time, and didn't even notice that she...
It's all right. I'm here with you.
I won't leave you alone, hm?
Come now...
... a few bites
I don't want anything
Come in
Ms. Jones
Good morning
Hello!
What are YOU doing here?!
I... I want to offer you my sincerest sympathy
Thank you. But it must be very hard for you, too.
Also, I need to work out a few organizational details with you
Re...regarding the funeral
How can you come at her about something like that right now?!
Excuse me, but I simply don't want to ignore her in making these decisions! After all, she was closest to Hanna.
== You know what, I think you'd better go now. == Leave her alone!
It's very nice of you to think of me
Shall we meet in Hanna's apartment later? I've arranged with Ms. Brandner to look through her documents.
I don't think I'm capable of that yet
Could you please go, and pick up some of my personal things for me?
Of course
As far as I know, Hanna's documents are in the blue box in her bedroom. Shall I...
No no, thanks, thank you
We had just finished making peace with each other
Maybe you should have rediscovered your sisterly love sooner
Well, let's get busy and deal with the paperwork. You can blubber into your diary!
I have to get back to Carla
How sensitive you are, I hardly recognize you!
Sorry, but I have other people in my life, too
Hustlers, racketeers, chambermaids... Oh, and your fiance, of course, right.
Carla knows quite well what she has in me
And she also knows how long she needs you
Carla's sketchbook
Are you making progress?
Well, these documents are one huge mess
Hanna always had more of a mind for spontaneity than for organization
We're gonna still be sitting here tomorrow morning
[For Carla]
Did you find something?
Nothing important
== Hello. == Hi.
How's Carla?
Still the same
She won't really let herself give in to the grief yet
I can well empathize with what she's going through
Do you know what I'm the most worried about?
That any little thing could make her jump the rails. A memory, for example.
Then I bet she'd totally go off the deep end
And, at the wrong moment, possibly betray herself
