Es ist zu deinem Besten

Today is the third happiest day of my life.

The happiest day of my life

was when we welcomed Antonia into the world.

The second happiest

was the day she joined my law firm.

That's where she met Florian.

One of my top lawyers and, more importantly, a truly good man.

Today, they got married in the same church

where I, too, was wed.

I mean, Isabella and me...

and I.

Ah, yes. I am sure

that he'll offer her the life

I've always wished for her.

The fourth happiest day of my life,

and with this I'll end my speech,

will be the day when the two of them

finally give me my first grandson.

I mean, our first grandchild.

And I hope this day will not be far away.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Bravo!

I've shat a better speech after a bowl of alphabet soup.

Always the same part! -What's wrong with you?

That was great, Arthur, really.

It was eloquent, cool, casual...

Who's that man? Superman!

Everyone loves Arthur 'cause he's the man!

Thanks, Yus. -Man, you lucked out with your son-in-law.

I wish Sophie could find a guy who at least has a sense of humor.

Because if he can make Sophie laugh, he'll have won us both over.

Rehearsal over, let's go. -Not so fast, Bruce Willis.

You're next, after all.

I heard Luna's got a boyfriend. -Bullshit!

Sure she does! Did you hear that, Arthur?

He thinks...

Really? -No, she doesn't.

Well, you would know. You're her dad.

Of course I would know. We made a deal.

If she gets a boyfriend, she tells me first.

What are you still doing here?

We have to get to the church. -You heard her, let's go.

Smile! -Get that out of my face right now.

Come on. The pastor won't allow photos in the church.

Just cut the crap!

Are these idiots at our table?

Of course, they're family. -Not mine.

They're only brothers-in-law.

How are you, my dear? -Good.

A little nervous, but I'll be fine.

Relax. Nothing can go wrong now. -Thank you.

I'll go and join my sisters.

That's so typical.

Turn off your phone.

You have to talk to Dad. Everyone knows but him.

Mom, stop it. You know what he's like.

When can we meet him? -When I introduce you.

Hey, have you got a boyfriend?

No.

I really should be doing my cello part. -Is that so?

Sophie!

Everyone's waiting for you to play the cello.

Dad, this is Andi.

Andi, this is... -Yusuf.

This little one's dad.

I'm Andi. Pleased to meet you.

I'm off, okay?

Isn't he great?

Here we go, darling.

Antonia?

Are you okay? -Yes, I'm fine.

I'm just nervous.

You know I've never been good at showing my emotions.

But I want to tell you...

From the bottom of my heart... -I love you!

Antonia!

Who is he? -I love you.

I love you more than anyone in the world, and...

If I don't say it now, I'll regret it my whole life.

I beg you.

Don't marry him.

I'm sorry, Dad.

Tell Mom I'm sorry too.

Sure, but...

IT'S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

Hey, Rocky! Come here!

Hi, Dad. -Gluten makes him aggressive.

We're going to my room to do homework. -Ciao.

Hi, honey.

Are you okay? -Sophie forgot about our date.

She went to her room to study with that Andi guy.

Well...

She's not a kid anymore. -Yeah... Sadly.

Do you feel like watching a movie? -Sorry, Yusuf.

The clinic was crazy today.

I really just want to get in the tub.

What's the matter, Kalle? Bad mood?

I'm having some issues with my daughter right now.

Spill it. What's up? -I think she has a secret boyfriend.

If she won't tell you who he is, that's a bad sign.

You guys don't even have kids. -I bet he's just out of prison.

Or he's a drug addict. -Or a dealer.

Or a skinhead. -Enough! Cut the crap!

Or maybe he's Polish!

That's enough, Dad! -What are you doing?

A failed wedding is not the end of the world. Life goes on!

I'm with Alex now.

And if you care about me, you have to accept that I love him.

She loves him. -She loves him.

I'm sorry, Mom, but this is ridiculous! -It'll all be fine, my darling.

We'll meet your Alex tomorrow. -I'm not meeting him.

We are all meeting him. -Not me!

Yes, you! He's coming for dinner.

You will be there. Or else.

Stop acting like a petulant little boy.

We're talking about our daughter's happiness.

And stop eating so much sugar!

Starting tomorrow: salad, fresh fish and chicken.

And take a shower! You smell like...

Tell your father what he smells like.

I can smell you from here!

Like a man. I smell like a man!

So how did you two meet?

It's a long story. -In court.

Oh, are you a lawyer too? -Of course.

A Supreme Court judge, I'm sure. -I was a defendant.

We don't need to go into details. -Oh, yes, we do.

We'd all love to know. What were you accused of?

They said I torched some rich dude's Porsche.

He asked.

He was innocent. It was a protest. -That's right.

Radical socialism against capitalism.

These things happen. They do.

But you know, many of these "rich dudes" made this country what it is.

Yeah, yeah... -They rebuilt it after the war.

I'm surprise it took him so long to mention the German Economic Miracle.

I mean, I knew he was going to, but...

Look, I'm sorry, but what year were you born?

1985.

What do you even know about the Economic Miracle ? You didn't live through it.

Arthur.

It's okay.

I also didn't live in ancient Egypt, but I still know slavery's wrong.

Although guys like you would probably like to reinstate it.

It saves on minimum wage, right? -It's true.

The world of free enterprise is tough.

But our country's doing very well. -Our country is not doing very well.

People like you are doing well with your mansions and fine food.

You're doing great. -Nevertheless, no one has to starve.

Really? Did you know that in Germany alone

15% of the population live close to the poverty line?

That's 13 million people, four million of which are children.

And the rich just get richer.

That is alarming, I agree.

Even more alarming is that the dumb are getting dumber.

And when those who built this country are no longer here,

these idiots will take their place.

Then we won't have four, but 40 million children...

Dad! -...living in poverty!

I think my poularde turned out exceptionally well, wouldn't you agree?

If we don't do something, your daughter will end up playing flute in the streets.

What's she doing with that guy?

She could have anyone. Why is she doing this to us?

Take one of these.

What is it? -Something very mild to help you sleep.

I'm taking a bath.

Well, all right. -Okey doke.

Kalle the Master Builder!

Here's that online tutorial I told you about.

They make a volcano out of charcoal

and then use newspaper to light it.

Here, watch and learn.

Get that damn phone out my face. I'll burn myself.

Relax, I just wanted to help.

What did you give me last night? It took me two hours to get out of bed.

It's just Atarax. I take it daily.

Atarax is for anxiety. It has to be prescribed by a doctor.

Don't be ridiculous. My friend Karola gave them to me.

They're just sleeping pills. -You're a proper junkie.

Isabella told us Antonia's new boyfriend is a revolutionary?

A wannabe, more like. -Don't say that when your daughter's around.

It's true. -Maybe so, but we don't need to say it.

Total wannabe!

At least Alex has ideals.

Sophie's new boyfriend is a waste of space.

I hope he's just a loser and not also a stoner or worse.

At least you know something about him. -She still hasn't told you anything?

I only know that he's a photographer.

As parents, you always worry.

You know what? We should chase these guys out of town.

I'm joking.

They're old enough to know what's best for them, right?

We can't look out for them forever. -We never listened to anyone either.

Are you saying we should... kill them?

No. Just get rid of them. Scare them off.

And our wives suggested this?

Not directly, but they're also very worried about our daughters.

So Luna really does have a boyfriend...

Damn it! Why does no one tell me anything?

I honestly can't imagine.
