The small business used to be a well-known manufacture with a few journeymen, but now the shop only has one employee: the ambitious Karina. The two hardly exchange a word a day, but at work they mesh like clockwork gears. The cozy little world threatens to collapse when Rudolf's brother Klaus, who produces cheap watches in Hong Kong, unexpectedly demands his share of the inheritance from their parents' business. Rudolf pretends that he cannot pay because he has just started a family. Klaus spontaneously announces his visit, happily surprised by his brittle brother's way of life. In his distress, Rudolf asks single parent Karina and her daughter Julia to move in with him for a few days to play "family". The ruse works amazingly well: Fake wedding photos and a little paint on the walls awaken Rudolf's dusty bachelor's quarters. Klaus never doubts for a second that he has a newly-enamored couple in front of him: Are real feelings involved? That's where the problem lies. When Rudolf believes that Klaus is--once again--relaxing his wife, he, blind with jealousy, lets the dizziness blow. Only after Karina threatens to disappear completely from his life does he reflect and stop time out of love for her. Written by ARD Das Erste See less
