Verliebt in Berlin 2 - Vokabelhilfen & Informationen
00:00 – 00:53: Hilfe! Kann jemand helfen? - Replay of David’s fall into the pool and Lisa’s rescue.
1:26 - 2:12: “Notarzt” – emergency response physician. “Der atmet nicht mehr.” David’s stopped
breathing. His father rushes in; everyone crowds around watching until the paramedics arrive.
2:13 – 2:35: When she’s sure David’s been taken care of, Lisa, dripping wet, slips out and heads home.
2:35 – 2:54: “Und will mich gar niemand gesehen haben?” Lisa can’t believe no one saw her when she
saved David’s life – “das Leben gerettet”. Should she have said something? She realizes he would have
died if it hadn’t have been for her. All she cares about now is that he’s okay.
2:55 – 4:45: Lisa tells her parents the amazing story of David’s rescue, but she’s clearly uncomfortable
explaining the details. When they realize that no one appears to have seen Lisa, her parents are upset. But
then her father reassures her that her bravery will surely be celebrated tomorrow. They toast the heroine:
“Prost! Auf unsere Heldin!”
4:47 – 5:18: David’s mother and father talk about the evening’s events, what a shock it was when he
stopped breathing, how lucky that someone reacted so quickly. Mariella can’t contain her anger. David
tripped because he was drunk; the engagement must be responsible for his behavior: “Dann war wohl die
Verlobung Schuld.”
05:15 – 6:03
The doctor explains that everything’s fine, but he’d like to keep David overnight for observation.
6:05 – 6:39: “Es sollte so ein schöner Abend werden.” – It was supposed to be such a beautiful evening.
David apologizes to Mariella. He just wanted everything to be special.
6:45 – 7:40: Richard grills his sister Mariella about the prior evening. He suggests that the engagement
announcement was a surprise to her as well. “Es wäre eine Unverschämtheit, dich so zu überfallen.”
“How scandalous to take you by surprise that way,” he says. She tells Richard that the engagement was
planned.
7:51 – 8:11: “Es gibt Menschen, die sieht man zum ersten Mal und glaubt sie ewig zu kennen. Irgendetwas
verbindet uns.” "Sometimes you meet someone for the first time and feel like you’ve known them
forever. Something connects us."
8:10 – 9:04: Lisa fantasizes about her reception when she arrives at Karima. Everyone will be thanking her
for her quick action. 8:44 - But it’s back to everyday business in the company and it’s as if Lisa were
invisible.
9:05 – 11:39: David talks with Mariella about the company and their future. She’s still angry, and he again
says he’s sorry. “Are you sorry about the engagement?” she asks. He tells her it was supposed to be a
surprise, that he had been waiting for the perfect moment. She points out that a ring is usually part of the
engagement ceremony. David makes up a story about the idiots at Cartier who messed up his special order
for the ring. When she suggests that maybe she should call Cartier and he agrees, she accepts that he is
telling the truth.
11:40 – 12:53: “Wollen die mich zum Narren halten?” “Are they trying to make a fool of me?” Lisa asks,
when no one says anything to her about the rescue. The catering staff wonders who saved David and what
he’ll do for that person. They’re shocked to learn it was Lisa.
13:55 – 14:50: Sabrina and Mariella talk about the engagement. Sabrina suggests it might have been a
distraction – “Ablenkungsmanöver.”
14:50 – 15:58: “Wer sein Licht unter einen Scheffel steckt, verbrennt sich den Hintern.” "If you hide your
light under a bushel, you’ll burn your butt.” The catering staff insists that Lisa tell David that she’s the one
who saved him and give her a gift basket to take to the hospital as an excuse to talk to him.
15:34 – 17:16: David tells Max that his near-death experience has changed his life. Thinking he’s upset
with him, Max reminds David that he only wanted the best for David and that, with the engagement, the
Board of Directors won’t vote against him. David isn’t concerned about that, he’s thinking about his life
and future. “Das ist alles so festgefahren,” it’s all so predictable. He reminds Max of the pledge they made
in college: “unser Eidspruch an der Uni: Fürchte dich nicht vor Veränderung. Fürchte dich vor dem
Stillstand.” Don’t be afraid of change. Be afraid of stagnation. [We saw the same saying on Lisa's wall in
the first episode!] Max is worried about David suddenly turning philosophical.
17:17 – 17:43: Sabrina and Mariella plotting together. David needs a personal assistant. Mariella needs
someone she can trust in David’s office.
17:45 - 19:14: David wonders who saved him. Max tells him it was a girl from catering. “Max, glaubst du
eigentlich an Zufälle?” David, sure that there is no such thing as (meaningless) coincidence, instructs Max
to find his guardian angel, “Schutzengel.” He wants to meet this exceptional creature -- “Diese Frau ist
sicherlich eine auβergewöhnliche Erscheinung” -- who could potentially change his life.
19:18 – 19: 40: Max tells the doctor to thoroughly examine David: “Er muss gründlich untersucht
werden.” He’s talking crazy.
19:42 – 20:20: Seeing Lisa’s reaction when she returns from the hospital, Agnes guesses that David was an
arrogant idiot and just handed her some money: “Darf ich raten? Erstmal einen Händedruck und dann ein
bisschen Kohle…” The girls talk about how modest Lisa is and what jerks men can be.
20:32 – 21:02: "Bescheiden? Ich bin nicht bescheiden. Ich habe nur einen Spiegel zu Hause.” I’m not
modest, I just have a mirror at home [and can see my limitations], thinks Lisa. David’s life is already filled
with exceptional women.
21:05 – 22:02: David sees the story of his rescue as a fantastic opportunity to get publicity for Kerima
Mode. Max agrees, this is headline material: “Du und deine Retterin…Das ist genial! Genial!” When the
doctor comes in to check on David, he says he’s feeling fabulous – “großartig.” Max confirms
enthusiastically: “Das kann ich nur bestätigen.”
22:03 – 22:48: Agnes explains to Lisa that David wants to be photographed with her right away. Lisa
thinks she’s trying to make fun of her. When she realizes it’s true, she’s can’t believe it: “Ich falle tot um,
und zwar auf der Stelle.” – I’m going to drop dead right here and right now.
22:50 – 23:08: “Schon wieder fit?” “Wie nie!” “Back to your old self?” asks Sabrina when David walks
back into the company. Better than ever, he assures her.
23:09 – 23:57: Lisa steps forward and explains that she saved David. Max and David don’t want to believe
it. With the press waiting, Max pushes Sabrina into David’s arms. David announces that Sabrina is his
rescuer: “Das ist sie. Sabrina Hoffman. Sie hat mich gestern aus dem Pool gezogen.” Lisa stands back,
incredulous at the turn of events.
24:05: Preview of the next episode. Mariella tells David’s father she’s found the perfect assistant for
David. Lisa’s father can’t believe how Lisa has been treated. Sabrina tells Richard that she’s going to be
David’s assistant.
