The first 200 lines.
- A guy who sells drugs on the Internet. - He's gone!
That's probably how you imagined it.
But I'm sorry to disappoint you.
That petty criminal there isn't me.
But rather one of my many copycats.
What did the boy do?
Let's see.
He didn't adequately secure his shop's database
from investigators' injection attacks.
And he was constantly bragging about his "part-time job" as a flirting tactic.
Not ideal.
If you're selling large quantities of drugs on the Internet,
there's one thing you should never do...
tell total strangers about it.
Unless, of course, Netflix calls and tells you
they want to do a series about your life.
Good morning!
- What's that book? - My welcome-back gift.
"Moritz: Skype later?"
- Marie! - "Lisa: No, I can't."
Is this your whole WhatsApp history?
Yes. From the year that she was gone.
How creepy is that?

MORITZ AND LISA
Goodbye, come back safe.
CALLING
Hey! Welcome back to the land of limited opportunities!
- Thanks. - Wow, you look wrecked.
- Same old Moritz. Thank you! - Please, no phones here.
If I'm gone, they've found the bomb.
Yeah, I just wanted to ask when I can give you your welcome-home present?
Moritz, our connection's really bad. Can we just talk later?
Wait. Okay. Now it's better.
I was going to give it to you at the airport, but...
- So, young lady, hello? - ...since the flight was so delayed,
- I thought... - Wait a second.
We have to look in here, too.
Here. Have fun.
There's nothing inside.
Is everything okay?
I wanted to talk about this later in person, but...
Please end the conversation now.
Please, this is really important!
Well...
You know...
I think I need some time to myself right now.
It has nothing to do with you, I...
It's just, I'm more scared now of coming back
than I was of leaving a year ago.
So I...
Maybe for now, could we take a break?
- Hang up and close the suitcase. - Sorry.

Hi, I am Moritz Zimmermann.
I'm 17 years old
and this is my generation.
Generation Z.
Everyone here has the entirety of mankind's knowledge in their pockets.
They could become famous with a single click,
or change the world without leaving their bedroom.
Limitless technological possibilities.
And what do we do with it? Face swap!
No one tries to be special anymore. And why should they?
Online, you can pretend you have the most exciting life in the world,
- when in reality... - Shit!
Well...
And because I don't go along with it, I'm an outsider.
Fine with me. After all, everyone successful used to be a nerd.
Guys like us, who everyone saw as losers
until eventually it clicks, and they prove everyone wrong.
- Are you coming? - This, by the way, is the day
it clicked for me.
If I log in to her account, that means we don't trust each other anymore.
You tell your best friend that your girlfriend dumped you
only after hours of cross-examination, and you're talking about trust?
We're just taking a break!
Google says that "taking a break" is breaking up for cowards.
Maybe you should just forget about her for a few months.
- Are you even listening to me? - Yes.
Now we can finally really bust our asses for MyTems.
Then when we're millionaires, Lisa will come running back.
That's how women are.
Yeah, maybe.
Or she has someone new.
- Who's that? - Dan?
Dan, the guy who supplies half the school with drugs.
The brother of Melanie, with the tits.
You know Melanie with the tits, right?
Since when does Lisa hang out with guys like that?
Tall, handsome, popular. Yeah, not really her type.
Right.
"Daniel Riffert. Goes by 'Dan.'"
Eighteen years old. Goes around shirtless, even in April.
What a dipshit.
His father played for the national team for about two seconds.
His mom manages the Rinseln Savings Bank.
Typical rich kid.
But his parents want him to earn his own money like they did.
The perfect family.
He spent six weeks in South America last summer.
Of course he did. Super intense time.
Life-changing experiences.
Does Capoeira and goes jogging five times a week.
But not as fast as you'd think.
He's gluten intolerant, uses too many emoticons,
and likes realgrumpycat and the national team on Facebook.
What an asshole. And...
Fucking Rinseln. No reception again.
Let's just focus on the pitch, okay?
Otherwise, I'll want to "take a break," too.
Hey, Moritz.
We're sitting over there.
Moritz? Hello?!
- What? - I spent 689 hours
programming what is likely the most advanced, most secure,
and hottest online shop system in the world.
So?
It has the password stored for the MyTems shop and everything else on my server.
In case I...
In case he dies.
That's the thing about Lenny.
According to his doctors, he should be dead by now.
So he stopped asking his doctors about it.
The PIN is the date we first had the idea for MyTems.
- Okay. - What do you mean, "Okay"?
I give you the key to my Sistine Chapel, and you just say "Okay"?
- Okay. - This pitch is really important to me!
Don't fuck it up!
Just so I understand correctly,
there are people who pay real money for computer game swords?
Obviously! How else would you kill a Level 100 Blood Elf Paladin?
It's true. One billion people across the globe
play online games such as World of Warcraft...
League of Legends, or Fortnite.
And that's our big opportunity.
We're the eBay for online gamers.
The eBay for online gamers! Wow!
INNOVATION COMPETITION
Yes.
Until now, if you wanted to trade rare items
or successful accounts for online games,
you had to go into shady Darknet forums
somewhere between drugs, real weapons, and freak sex.
We proudly present... MyTems!
Trade game items online.
Looking for a chromatic sword?
Only a total moron would pass that up.
Sorry. That was your time. Thank you very much.
Wait a second, please. We'll take a quick photo, okay?
Next will be "I love Rinseln," 7B.
And smile!
Great. Keep it up!
And breathe!
Has he already contacted you?

This happens to be the expression you make
when you realize that you don't know your own girlfriend anymore.
For those of you who, like me at that point,
don't have a clue what those pills are, and what's in them,
put your phone down and listen to Lenny's mother.
It will be important later.
Everyone else can press the "skip" button.
Methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine, or MDMA for short,
is the main psychoactive agent in the party drug ecstasy.
The pills come in all shapes and colors.
And they all have different additives and MDMA contents.
In the best case, it keeps you up all night,
in the worst case, it lands you in the emergency room.
The effects set in after about 20 minutes.
Your brain releases huge quantities of serotonin, noradrenaline and dopamine,
which means, your body produces pure bliss.
Your blood pressure rises, you're awake, attentive and extremely empathetic.
You experience every feeling more intensely.
Freedom, tenderness, love.
And the downside?
How do you think you'd feel the next morning
after your brain has blown its entire supply of happiness hormones?
Do you maybe want to dip your toes in, or is it your time of the month again?
Say hi to Lenny. I can give you two a ride home, by the way.
What are you two doing here? Get moving.
