Light Gradient (Rückenwind)

A fox and a hare meet one day.

The hare says to the fox, "Can we be friends? "

The fox thinks for a moment.

"That depends."

"On what?" the hare asks.

"Firstly, I hope you're not a vegetarian.

Secondly, I hate getting up before dawn.

But most importantly, we should have a similar sense of humour."

"No problem," says the hare, "l'm game."

Do Robin and I have a similar sense of humour?

No idea.

The outing, at any rate, was my idea.

Although I'm not so sure anymore. Maybe it was his idea.

That would be just like him.

Come on...

What's the blue line? "Light gradient..."

We'll ride that way.

Okay?

That's where we just were. Weren't we?

So if we've been riding for an hour, and that's five miles...

... we should be right there.

The tent poles aren't in here.

Then look again.

Well, they're not here. - Oh well...

Did you leave them behind on purpose?

Maybe. -You left them behind on purpose?

Brilliant idea.

Then we'll sleep on the ground.

Some hot tea would be nice.

What's up?

Didn't we leave the bikes right here?

No, they're much farther up that way.

Shit!

I think they're over that way.

Or maybe that way?

Or maybe that way?

Or maybe that way.

Or up there?

Whatever.

This is so fun, isn't it?

So it's my fault.

It's my fault that the bikes are gone?

Are you going back?

How? -We'll continue on foot, what do I know?

No idea, Johann!

Sorry, do you have any food for us?

No. Sorry. -Are you sure?

You see, we're really hungry.

What's in that bag?

Okay, keep calm...

Let us by, we want to go now.

It's all right, I'll have a look. -What?

What do you want? -I'll check the bag.

Why did you do that?

Thank you. -Yeah.

Yuck, the ground!

We'll swim to the other side.

Oh, well... Some people are just good.

Fuck!

Shit, I've cut myself!

Anyone home?

Hello!

Hey! Hello!

Hello, is anyone there? Johann!

Hey Johann, the door's locked!

It's jammed. -Jammed? Don't be such a halfwit!

Open the door!

Hey! Johann!

Johann, where are you?

Drop that.

Who's that? - Drop it!

I just wanted to... - Shut up!

I don't want trouble.

Shut up.

Get back against the wall. - What's going on?

Stay right there.

Hey. - Hey.

What's going on here?

Who is that?

Hello?

Hello?

I'm opening the door.

You little prick! - Who are you?

What are you doing here?

Come on, let's go.

I asked you who you are.

I'm Grit. I live here. - We just got lost.

Come on.

Are you hungry?

I'm cooking.

What are you cooking?

Anyone want another piece of meat? - I don't eat meat.

But I do.

Thanks. - Sorry.

What are your plans for the farmhouse?

Next I want to fix up the barn, put in guest apartments,

for families, and hikers like you.

With separate kitchens and baths... - Repair the water pipes first.

Do it yourself.

I can't.

I don't know how. We need a plumber. - Oh yeah?

The lakes around here are nice.

We went swimming in that big one. It was great.

I go there a lot. - But that bike path isn't...

... too good, with all those cobblestones.

It's not so easy on the bikes.

You guys came by bike?

So where are your bikes? - Gone.

What do you mean, "gone"?

We left them by a tree, and when we got back they were gone.

Vanished into thin air, in the middle of forest.

Some more to drink?

I'm good, thanks. - Me too.

I can't show you. - Sure you can.

Okay, when you surf... No, I never surfed. When I snowboarded,

my problem wasn't turning this way,

but rather this way. And not only the turns are hard, but...

The surface is rock-hard,

but on the black slopes it's much softer.

But the black slopes,

if that tells you anything, are really steep and fast.

And if you can't stop, and you can't make right turns,

you're shit out of luck. So I slammed into a skier...

No, we don't have rats anymore.

Okay, sheets and blankets are over there. Help yourself.

And you can wash up behind the barn. Good night. - Good night.

See you tomorrow.

What are you reading?

Let me have a piece of apple.

Here you go.

Grab him by the horns.

Hey there!

Slow down.

Here you go... here.

Hey... You like that, don't you?

He's still pretty young.

That's why he's so playful.

Is...

... that your boyfriend?

Robin? -Yeah.

Yeah.
