This is wicked.
This is going on it, too. So the album is ... done.
I don't know ... - You don't know?
About the tracks or what?
I've heard all of your new tracks. I think you can do better.
Your new stuff is so ... random.
Half-baked, you know. Just calm down
and work on it. Concentrate.
Relax. - Relax, sure.
How can I when I'm playing all the time? What have you got against my tracks?
You probably didn't even listen to them. My shit rocks,
period.
The new album can be released.
Subscriber present. - Hi Icka, it's me.
Erbse, how are you? - Can I come upstairs?- Come on up.
See you in a sec.
The tax office is sending more payment notices! Are they crazy?
We're in the clear. We paid everything.
The second half was so boring. They have to warm up. - Warm up?
What are they getting paid for? - They need to warm up.
That'd be the 15th and 16th. Yes, sure. That's great.
Sorry, I won't be able to make it.
Hey, Mathilde, how are you?
No, it depends on when the new album comes out.
I'll call when I have the dates together. Please don't forget
about the Moscow gig. It would fit in perfectly.
Good. Bye then.
Yes, Alice. I'll talk with him.
I don't want Erbse in our apartment anymore.
Yes, Mommy.
Is that ketamine?
Why are you always taking something?
I'm just relaxing.
Here.
It's an electric saw, Icka.
They're working outside.
And? Feeling better?
Back on track.
Dude, what a blast.
I'm gonna party. You coming?
One more line?
I've had enough.
I heard you were in Holland? Open Air Festival?
Yeah, how did you know?
Your website.
Oh, right.
Holland, France ... I just got back into town.
And? Your girlfriend?
She always comes with me. You know that.
And you?
I'm alright.
You still doing your apprenticeship? - Yeah, but it's boring.
Jenny, didn't you want to sing? - I don't know.
What about your album? When is it coming out?
My album? Soon. And it is going to be the bomb!
Got any plans? Now? - I have to go.
Important? - Really important. - Seriously?
No ... - Is there another after hour?
It's my father's birthday. - Really?
"Work is to man
as flight is to birds," said Martin Luther.
Every man
is called by God to his profession.
In doing his job,
he is helping his neighbors.
Helping one's neighbors includes many other things
such as treating the environment with respect.
It is scandalous how dependent we have become on the airplane.
Climate change, global warming
are directly due to mankind's behavior.
Mankind faces its greatest challenge ever.
We must change our behavior
or we will make our planet uninhabitable for future generations!
Man must understand that he is responsible
for his actions!
The work climate is great. I'd like to stay there.
Depending on how many projects come in, we'll see if I can get a contract.
How many internships have you done? - Don't answer him,
Stefan. - He gets one internship after another
and they earn all the money. You study till you're 30,
intern till you're 40, then you go onto unemployment. Great system.
At least he's trying and he's come a long way.
He finished school, got a degree ... -All this again?
I've been earning my money since I was 18. Is that a problem?
Will it last?. You look unwell. - Stop it!
Icka's right. I am being used.
To you, Father.
To you two.
Happy birthday, Father. - Thank you.
No thanks. I have to work tonight.
How is your girlfriend, Mathilde? How is she?
Fine.
And your new album?
Super. I gotta get it done now.
I'm almost there. Then Mathilde and I are going on vacation.
The south of France or something.
You want the record release party here? I'll have to block the date.
When do you want?. - I'll have to talk with Alice
from the label.
I'll write it in.
It'd be great to do the release here. - I agree.
Mathilde! - Corinna! - Be right there.
Hey.
Have you seen Ickarus?
On stage earlier. Not since then.
Have fun looking.
Hey!
If you're looking for me, I'm doing the door, honey.
Have you seen Ickarus? -Awhile ago.
Give him anything? I asked you a question.
What is wrong with you? Are you nuts?
What did you give him? - Pills. MDMA, no big deal.
You want one, too?
No ...
Give me two.
On the house. Good stuff, from Benelux.
Start with a quarter. Supposed to be hefty.
I don't want you giving Ickarus keta, crystal or any hardcore stuff.
No keta, no crystal, are we clear? - Yes.
Did you find Icka?
No. What are you doing after?
Why? I'm almost finished.
What is it?.
Nothing.
Excuse me. Are you
a guest here?
And I love your breakfast.
But it is so warm in here. You feel that?.
Heatwave. Whoa ...
Man, I'm bleeding ...
I'm bleeding.
Your friend is doing well. He is in acute care.
We'd like to put him in the open ward, he is lucky, we have a bed free.
If you could bring him some things. His clothes were full of yoghurt.
We're having them cleaned. - How long do you think
he'll have to stay? - We'll have to see if his psychosis is drug induced
or if the symptoms persist. In cases of acute intoxication,
insurance will usually pay for between 7 and 21 days here.
Then we'll see how he's doing. First we need to find out
what kind of pill he ran into.
Try testing these pills.
Ickarus probably took one.
Hello, Mr. Karow. I'm Alex, the civilian service assistant.
I'll need hair and urine samples from you.
But I guess we can forget the hair.
Man, aren't you DJ Ickarus?
I'm Ickarus.
Oh man!
I was at the Erfurt Open Air last year! I danced my ass off!
Oh man, so cool, so ... It was so great, yeah ...
Nice to have you here.
How are you feeling? - Bad trip yesterday.
What do you mean?
That wasn't normal ecstasy.
That pill was bad. Really evil.
I have never sweated like that.
I totally felt the fear. - Of what?.
Of like ... myself.
I kept thinking my heart was going to stop.
I saw my death.
What did your death look like?
I think Death just stopped in to say hi.
And now? How are you feeling?
My heart is still racing.
But I feel better.
Let's see what the lab says. I'm anxious to know what you took.
I would like to emphasize that your stay is voluntary.
If I can't take it, I'll leave.
Right. The garden is open during the day but the doors are locked at night.
If you want to leave the hospital, you have to tell me.
Can I have my computer and controller? - What kind of controller?
A thing with buttons. For making music.
For my work. - Oh. Yes, yes.
You're welcome to work here if you don't disturb the others.
Fine.
Then I'll stay till the results are in. Not a day longer! - Good.
Professor Doctor Petra Paul ... "Drugs, Art and Rebellion."
"Andreas Baader was on speed,
Aldous Huxley on LSD, Rainer Werner Fassbinder on cocaine.
Berlin doctor, Petra Paul
assesses her time as a student from a neurological perspective.
You're welcome to read it.
No thanks.
Very funny.
Are you worried about the gigs? - We can cancel the gigs.
We can go into overdraft.
I am worried about you.
Don't exaggerate.
Take a look around.
The album is what's important. It'll be super. Then a vacation.
Let's wait for the results here and then get outta here.
What are you doing? - I'm setting something.
Was that chick your girlfriend? - Yep.
I'll give you a tip. Watch out for that doctor.
She'll drive you crazy.
I'm taking you to movement therapy.
No way. I've got an album to finish.
May I hear some of your music?
It's probably better on the dance floor than in the loony bin.
I find it very dark, almost depressive.
You mean melancholy ... Want to hear something depressive?
I want you to come to movement therapy now. - Nope.
Stop saying no to everything, Mr. Karow.
We breathe in and close our eyes ...
Michael, close your eyes. Very calmly, try to close your eyes.
You can do it.
Very calm, Michael.
Breathe in and out and close your eyes.
Michael, stay calm. Think of the black BMW.
Think about the black BMW.
You're not afraid, close your eyes.
And we reach for the stars ... Stretch, stretch ...
Reach for the stars ...
Exhale and ...
inhale and stretch.
Mr. Karow, I know you're not used to it, but you could try
to feel your body more. You are completely tense.
Inhale and stretch.
And reach for the stars. And exhale.
Inhale.
Yes, Mr. Karow, that's good.
Michael, you have made progress.
We're going for a walk tomorrow. We're going outside.
Thank you for your contribution. Pete, it's your turn.
I told you everything last time. What am I supposed to say?
We had gotten to where the entire Leipzig police force was after you.
That's not true, but it doesn't matter.
My problem isn't the Leipzig police,
it's your fucking pills. Without 'em,
I'd be out doing my apprenticeship. The police aren't the problem.
You're the problem. - Pete, we've gone over this.
I'm done till you stop giving me pills!
Fine.
And you, Mr. Karow? Don't you want to sit on your ball?
No way!
Fine.
Man!
Pete, what are you doing?
Man, what are you looking for? - My USA T-shirt.
What shirt? - My USA T-shirt!
It's gone!
Pete, you're wearing your USA T-shirt!
Pete, everything's okay.
How is he now? - He's asleep. He took his pills.
What's wrong with him?
Crystal Meth.
Crystal is hardcore.
And him?
He's called Gebhard.
Goa Gebhard. It took a year for his parents to find him in India.
He never came off his LSD. His friend drowned while they were tripping.
He's never talked since. Nothing.
Straight-AA student.
Night, Icka. - See you tomorrow.
Icka, what's wrong? Is the TV too loud?
Everything's full of water. - What?
We have to do something.
Here?
Jamal, what's going on? You alright?
Water everywhere. - Wait, I'm coming. - Water all over ...
Turn it off.
Turn the water off.
Here ... Open your hand.
Yes ...
You've got everything on the market in your bloodstream: THC,
ketamine, MDMA, MDA, amphetamines,
cocaine ...
Everything except heroin.
Your cocaine levels
are extremely high, Mr. Karow.
The pill's results are also very disturbing.
Instead of MDMA, the pill contained 100 mg of MDA.
And what upsets me the most
is the 40 mg of highly toxic PMA
in the pill.
PMA is a strong hallucinogen
and causes a large increase in blood pressure and body temperature.
The substance PMA
has also been known to cause death.
Mr. Karow ...
You are free to leave any time, but I strongly recommend ...
you take some time off.
Under our supervision.
We're stopping the promo and the album goes on ice.
You can't do that. - Mathilde, I already stopped the promo
and pushed up another production.
When Ickarus finds out he will totally freak out!
Icka has to learn to drink water.
Are you worried about your job?
You could help me manage Mike or Patricia.
They're easier to handle than Ickarus.
This is not about me, Alice.
And I am not interested in managing another DJ.
Let's wait two weeks ... - No. When Ickarus is back to normal,
we'll talk about the album.
So we've cancelled Ickarus' record release party
and move this. - Do you have a job for me?
I mean, just for a while. - Door or bar?
Door.
Door with Corinna like the old days.
Want one?
Icka always had everything under control.
What was that pill that nailed him?
The pill was a bastard. The doctor said it had PMA in it. - PMA?
What is that?. - It is some bad, bad shit.
Where'd he get it?.
Here?
I can't allow that. I don't want bad pills in my club.
Who is selling them?
Erbse!
Hey, Pete, it's no fun this way.
Man, Pete, play right! Don't just smash it all the time!
I'm tired of this.
Alex, I need to go out for a while.
They're driving me crazy. Can you tell the doorman?
Did you talk with Dr. Paul? - She's not here.
This is an open ward, not a prison, right?.
It's better if Dr. Paul knows. - But she's not here! How can she?
Come on. I want some cigarettes. Gotta lose these crazies for a while.
Yes ... but not for long. Come right back, okay, Icka?
10 minutes!
Erbse!
Hey. - Hey. Sorry about that pill. I didn't know they were so bad.
You have to choose one of three jobs.
I have to collect the empties in a liquor store. I stand around
and have to take the bottles out of the machine ...
The other day, some guy had the wrong bottles, the machine was beeping ...
I told him through the slot,
"We don't take them! They're not ours!"
He flipped out, starting throwing bottles.
10 minutes later the police came. I only just got my 'stuff' hidden.
Why do you do that job?
I have to do it to get my welfare money. But it's cool,
I even get my 'stuff' delivered there. Nobody notices. But I'm quitting.
I've got a buddy who is getting me a real job. - What?
He works in insurance, pension plans, car insurance, life insurance ...
Might be good for me. I know lots of people.
I know how to sell ...
Subscriber present.
Alex? To the hospital? Now?
No way. I'm in a meeting ...
The album ... Ciao.
Idiot ...
Do it, it sounds good.
Hey, Icka!
Jenny! You here, too?
I just got here. Where've you been all the time?
London, Brussels ... Just got back. And you?
I'm alright.
How is it? You got any party powder?
Party? - Yeah. - I'm up for it.
And your girlfriend? - No idea.
I see. Well then ...
