Editress: Lied

 

Welcome to Hand aufs Herz!

[Intro]

 

Bea is driving to school with her red Peugeot which not a lot of people favored in our Poll. Poor Peugeot.

 

'A Fine Frenzy – What I wouldn't Do' plays in the background while Micahel Heisig is meeting Bea's ass, and then his face is meeting Bea's bag..accidentally. (I think it was the spirit of the yet unborn Helena in that bag, anybody ever seen „my Stepmother is an Alien with a very young Alyson Hannigan?“ Yeah..where was I? Oh,yes, the show commences!)

 

Bea: Oh my God! Where did you come from all of a sudden?

Michael: I am also sorry, that I ran my helmet into your bag!

Bea: Are you..are you alright? I am sorry..I am...I am running late (A big YAY! For continuity!) It's my first day.

Michael: No problem, you'll be hearing from my lawyer.

Bea (laughs): Bea Vogel.

Michael: Michael Hei-hei-heisig. (who does look cute with his boyish hair cut..I'm still allowed to say that as he isn't hate material quite yet)

Bea (laughs): Well, then. (She turns and leaves.)

Michael: Pleased.

 

(Look how happy she is. I don't remember her smiling like that ever again.)

 

Krawczyk reads a letter in a voice over:

 

Dear Bea,

I am pleased to be able to tell you, that the school board has finally affirmed your employment.

I am sure, that you are a teacher that will be able to convey to the students, that it is our ideals, who make our lives worth living.

I am very happy, that you are returning to our school after so many years.

Your principal Gabriele Krawczyk

 

Bea walks around in the school auditorium

 

Voice over from the past:

 

Ladies and gentlemen,

please welcome the winners of the year 2000's school choir festival: The singing Lunettes!

 

You see a young Bea Vogel with a Xena haircut and a freed belly rock it out with her Glee club to „Push it!“

 

Until someone in the crowd yells: “Murderer! Murderer!“

 

 

[In the here and now or wherever]

Krawczyk: Bea Vogel!

Bea: Ms.Krawczyk!

Krawczyk: I am pleased, that it has finally worked out! Welcome back to your old school!

Bea: I am pleased,too.

Krawczyk.Come with me! (to the emerald cityyy...)

 

[On the volleyballfield]

 

Caro: Hey, Spongehead!

Luzi: Just shut up and play!

Caro: As you wish!

 

(Look at those eyes, for a moment I thought the super powers of Amazing Luzi were in action here and I wasn't watching Hahe, but...X-Men or something.)

 

Caro serves the ball and hits Luzi in the head with it.

 

(Oh my! They are actually using the volleyballfield..playing volleyball!!!Never thought I'd see that day..and five minutes into the show and Caro's is the second belly button I see..AND she is already flirting with Luzi!This is going to be so.much.fun..)

 

Lohmann(summertime is a good time at Pestalozzi..!): Thank you this is enough!

Emma (EMMAA!!!) to Luzi: Are you alright?

Luzi: Hmm..

 

Luzi and Sophie high five..and Sophie isn't wearing anything either.

Lohmann high fives both of them. I'm assuming it's because of their volleyball prowess and not because of their state of undress.

 

Lohmann: Girls, you both have what it takes to get waay up there!

 

[Back inside of Pestalozzi]

 

Lohmannto random teacher in the hallway: Good morning!

 

enters the teacher's lounge

 

Good morning!

 

Teacher stammers at her: „Hello, because of the class trip...“

Lohmann whispering: Later.

 

She slinks over to Götting (I haven't realized just how muched I've missed these guys..)

 

Lohmann: Good morning.

 

Götting: Good morning.

 

Lohmann: And, have you been able to make any progress on the new beach volleyball field?

Götting: It's all been taken care of. The Harani bank donations will benefit your volleyballteam in their entirety.

Michael: Did I miss something? I can't remember discussing this decision in the teacher's board ever...

Götting: There are some decisions, which I, as vice-principal can make, without needing to discuss them with every single one of you.

Michael: Oh really?That means that now you have taken over here completely?

Götting: Sadly enough, not quite yet.

 

[Pestalozzi - Staircase]

Luzi puts up a flyer for an „AG Singen and Tanzen“ (Singing and Dancing Club)

 

HOOTTTEEE!! runs by her.

 

Luzi: Hey Hotte! You're probably totally into music, right?

Hotte: Do I look like it?

Luzi: And you're probably a good dancer, too, right?

Hotte: Well, that depends on what you understand by that.

Luzi: Well, then you're my man, cause I want to found a Singing and Dancing club! Are you in?

Hotte: We'll see.

Luzi: Well, see you later then,ok?

 

Caro: And? Does it still hurt? If I'd be such a miserable athlete, I'd be looking for something different to do, too.. Say, Sophie, doesn't one have to be able to move in order to dance?

Sophie: Correct.I think that could prove to be a problem.

Luzi: Let that be my worry.

Caro: You're right, one shouldn't rob those who don't have anything of their illusions, too.

 

[At the teacher's lounge]

 

Krawczyk: Good morning, may I introduce to you: Bea Vogel, your new colleague.

Götting: It was about time that the school board would draw consequences out of the way too sparsely covered personnel situation.

Krawczyk: I am glad, that you are welcoming my decision. Miss Vogel will be responsible for mathematics and music, beginning as of today.

Lohmann: You can't be serious!

Bea: Alexandra Lohmann!

Lohmann:Y ou will be regretting this decision (to Bea) You,too!

Bea: Miss Krawczyk, you didn't tell me..

Krawczyk: Have a good day!

Bea: Miss Krawczyk!

Michael: Anybody mind telling me what this is about?

 

Bea has chased Ms.Krawczyk down

Bea: Miss Krawczyk, do you have a minute?

Krawczyk: Not right now.

Bea: But it's important! You didn't tell me that Alexandra Lohmann is a teacher at this school!

Krawzcyk: And where lies the problem in that?

Bea: You know very well, that Alexandra and I..

Krawczyk: Listen, Bea, it's been years, both of you are grown ups now, and I am expecting of you to behave as such. There is a lot to do at this school..that is why I have gotten you to come back here. This ambitionated project,for example (points to the STAG flyer) desperately needs a music teacher, otherwise it can't take place, so finally forget about Alexandra Lohmann and start to work!

 

[Götting's Office]

 

Götting: Yes, please! Ms.Lohmman, I already feared you had left.

Lohmann: It wouldn't have taken much more..

Götting: Earlier,due to your hasty exit, I wasn't able to tell you how charming you look today.

Lohmann: Not now.

Götting: But a lot of work has accumulated during the vacation that needs to be taken care of..

Lohmann: Say, are you mad? How can you think about getting it on after what happened earlier?

(Pssst!Lied, I'm a Lohmann fan now,too!:-D /// Wooohoo! One of us.)

Götting: Well, honestly I don't really get your outrage about the simple fact of having a new colleague..So, what is it between you and Bea Vogel? ( Now, wouldn't we ALL like to know??:-) )

Lohmann: Nothing..we went to the same grade together.

 

[At the Vogel's]

 

Miriam: Didn't you know that Alexandra was at the school?

Bea: Did you? I had no idea! If I had known, I wouldn't have returned.

Piet: What did you expect? You go to Munich for a few years, give up your great job there and expect all the people from your past to have evaporated upon your return? (Uh,yes? Isn't that how it works?)

Miriam: Piet!

Piet: What? That's the way it is! This whole thing has been a dumb idea from the very start. As I know my sister, all she remembers is her successes, and that's while quite a few other things happened back then..

Bea: I know!

Lara: Is there some food?

Miriam: Of course,soon! You can go ahead and set the table already.

Lara (to Bea): So, how do you like it at our school? (Realistical speaking, Lara would have mentioned a 'Ms Lohmann' before, especially since she is teaching her french...)

Bea: The students are nice. (Death glare in Piet's direction, who weighs about twenty pounds less)

 

[At Chulos] (Heeyyyaa Chulos!!)

 

Sebastian: Two Gin Tonic.

Bea: Thank you! (To Miriam) Quite a lot happened around here. I think Piet is still mad at me.

Miriam: You know your brother, he's got his own view on things.

Bea: And Alexandra! I don't even know what to do about her!

Miriam: Just ignore her!

(By the way, it is so much more fun pretending that Bea and Alexandra had been a couple and had a bad break up in their school days, than ..whatever supposedly happened:-) )

Bea: That's easy for you to say!

Miriam: She's only making such a big brouhaha cause she's afraid of you stealing all of her thunder again. She didn't change either.

Bea: What about me?

Miriam: Neither did you, and that's a good thing.You've always believed, that it's possible to change the world,you've always fought for that and you'll please go ahead and keep doing just that.

Bea: Well, then..

(They clink glasses)

Miriam: Hey, you, don't turn around, but back there,at the bar, is a guy,who's been looking at you the whole time.

Bea, of course, turns around and: Surprise!It's Ben!!


Bea and Miriam dance it up (I love the music on that show)

Ben and Bea kind of meet..Flirt..the works..not much to translate til finally:

 

Ben: Gin tonic?

Bea: Thanks

Ben: Stalking is my hobby.

And your translatress almost spit her hot chocolate over her laptop screen in the middle of a German High speed train.

Bea: I almost figured.

Ben: Really? I already know all the important things about you.

(meaning:You like Gin Tonic, which means you have Lesbian inclinations, which means, I am going to be wearing a lot of plaid..)

Bea: Ok

Ben: Cheers.

 

They leave Chulos after a while.

Ben: Do you really want to leave already?

Bea: I have to, I've got my first day of work tomorrow.

Ben: Well, coincidence, me, too.

Bea: What do you do?

Ben: I'm a quantum physicist (no, kids, I am not making this up..) and on the quest for God's particles. (Wasn't that a philosophical and not a physical concept?anyways..) You know, this tiny thing, that can somehow explain everything to us. (Like the TV Guide?)

Bea: Are you going to tell me when you've found it?

Ben: You'll be the first to know.

Bea: I have to go.

 

Heisig(what are you doing there??): Excuse me, is this your girlfriend's purse?Someone forgot it downstairs.

Ben: I'll bring it to her!

 

 

[In front of the Vogel's]


Cab driver: That'll be 18,30 Euros, please.

Bea: Oh, damnit, I forgot my purse.We have to go back!

Cabdriver: Oh noes.

Bea: My keys are in there, what am I supposed to do?

Ben: If that isn't a sign..

(Ben to the rescue)

 

Music choice FTW!

Bea: Isn't this way too fast?

Bea: Way too fast..

(Romeo and Juliet quote FTW! They make out and out and out...I'm kind of getting embarrased watching this in public (still on a train..)

 

[Bea's]

In the morning at Bea's, Ben looks at the clock.

Ben: Oh fuck!

Ben picks up a letter by Ms.Krawczyk off of her desk.

Ben: Teacher!

 

He pens a note and puts it next to Bea.

It reads: „It was wonderful.“

He leaves.

 

Later:

Bea glances at the clock.

Bea: Shit!

 

 

[At the auditorium of win]

Luzi: I want to found a singing and dancing club, because I want for something to change at this school. I don't want to solely play volleyball in my free time. Life is about so much more than winning and looking good while doing it. (NOT? -  NICHT?) And you seem to be feeling the same way, or you wouldn't be here.

Emma:   But one also has to look good during dancing, too!

Bea: I am Bea Vogel, the new music teacher. And responsible for S and T starting today.

Hotte: S and T?

Bea: Singing and Dancing (Tanzen), the new club. Ok?

 

Emma begins to sing „Dreams“, really really faintly.

 

Bea: Emma, you have such a beautiful voice, but I can hardly hear it. Just forget, that we're here and sing, for yourself, ok?

 

Emma begins to work her magic, Luzi joins in, then Hotte does..God I love this show.

 

The evil trio, Lohmann, Caro and Sophie look on through the famed transparent auditorium doors.

 

[Flashback]

Lohmann has a flashback to the same performance Bea had at the beginning of the ep:

The guy screams murderer,murderer, at Bea who is on stage again, little Lohmann, with bangy Xena haircut, too, holds him back, saying; „Calm down, ..Daddy..“

[/Flashback]

 

back in the here and now, I mean ep one..

 

Bea(to  STAG): You were good, you were really good! There is a special talent hidden in each and every one of you, and it's up to you to free it,or to waste this talent.It won't always be easy, but the good news is, that you can't do anything wrong, cause everything is inside you already!You just have to let it out? Ok?Good! We'll see each other tomorrow.

 

Alexandra Lohmann is waiting for Bea outside the auditorium

 

Lohmann: You've made a mistake by coming back.

Bea: Alexandra, it's been years.

Lohmann: And you think that changes anything.

Bea: Can't we at least try to get along?

Lohmann: You appear out of nowhere and pretend like there has been nothing..

Bea: The thing with Franciska.

Lohmann: Don't you even dare use my sister's name..you killed her, and I swear, if you're getting comfortable here, I'll make your life a living hell.

 

[Later on the stairs]


Michael: Ah, Miss Vogel, I've been looking for you everywhere.

Bea: I've been kept.Am I still giving you a headache?

Michael: No, everything's ok.Does the name Bergmann ring a bell?

Bea: No.

Michael: Mr.Bergmann is a powerful banker and is a member of the executive board of the Harani bank. And from today on his son will be your new student. Ben Bergmann, Ms. Vogel.

 

 

And thus,the drama commences. If you want to meet Timo and see Caro wearing even less, tune in for ep No.2!
