Didn't mind the kissing/shirtlessness. Seemed normal to me. I think it's less a German thing than a personal privacy level thing. Some people might want more, others less. I was more creeped out by Schnecke because it seems like the kind of thing you can call your own girlfriend, but somebod else It's really low brow to do that. As for Lydia, at the moment I lean towards her knowing or aware. Otherwise, wouldn't she sort of notice that Judith occasionally running around with Christian? After all Fabian is her brother. Though I guess it's possible that they haven't told her. After all Fabian didn't know either till after the bearding plan was hatched. I guess we will know at the latest in August when she is at the fight. If she makes surprised!face when C kisses Olli in the ring when we know that she didn't know yet I'm amused at the cute flatshare politics regarding "Sturmfreie Bude" (basically "empty house" so Judith/Fabian or whatever other couple can have sex). It seems like a fascinating economical exchange system.

I) I think she knows or at least - spoiler - she'll know in August as to me the spoilers look like she's the one dragging Oli along to the big fight maybe telling him he's entitled to do some sulking to be angry with Christian but that it's really bad timing to do so right then and that he should still support Christian etc.

Come on, I know everyone has had or currently has at least one friend who is overly-PDA with their SO, even if there is another person in the room being put upon by the PDA. Been there... Oh God. *facepalm* So have I. See, I usually live by the motto, "I'd rather live to regret the things I've done than to regret never having done them." BUT in this case, when I think back on it, I'd much rather regret not having done it than to remember it at all. I think that may be why I freaked/got so creeped out by it when I saw Ollian and Gollumith so (seemingly) intimate in the same room. It's one of those things that's like Schödinger's cat. You only know the answer once you've observed it. Well, we need all the extra dimensions from String Theory to accommodate the bizarre spacial geometry of the flatshare and the outer hallway anyway.... LMAO! Who'd have thought that courses, textbooks and multiple detailed lectures on theoretical/quantum physics would be necessary pre-requisites to watch a German Soap Opera!

I just noticed this, but the actor who portrays Lars' another hottie.
The 'anatomy lesson' was all kinds of hot.
I want a boyfriend like Oliver. I mean, he's the one to come up with the 'fantasy vacation' date for Judith and he's not even HER BOYFRIEND.
Oliver's the best character.

Word on both the anatomy lesson and the Oliver=bestest BF evah. You think we could special order one? I keep watching this episode and I don't know about being comfortable with the whole PDA thing with Gollum in front of me (I'd be prone to tossing peanuts at them and yelling "get a room" or something). But whatever works in their household is good with me if that means that we get to see more anatomy lessons and impulsive kissing.

I think that may be why I freaked/got so creeped out by it when I saw Ollian and Gollumith so (seemingly) intimate in the same room. In principle I understand that it was a filming decision to a) put the four of them within range of a single camera and b) have them all together when Axel showed up. But I still remain a little surprised. For one thing, I don't get Olli and Christian ever doing anything amorous in the living room given how their relationship is supposed to be a secret and the way people are parading through there all time. I mean, the flatshare has only slightly less through-traffic than No Limits (or Gregor's bedroom)! Has Christian forgotten that he and Olli were first nearly discovered when Judith came home that time with Gregor following at her heels? Then there's just the self-consciousness thing. Somehow the thought of hanging around shirtless with company over (Fabian) seems as odd as the company making out on the couch in front of them. I mean, Christian and Olli usually seem to stop making out whenever Judith comes in.

Does Lydia know about Christian and Oliver? I mean, Fabian/Gollum tells her EVERYTHING about his own relationship with Judith? Won't he make a mistake and mention something to her about the 'bearding' issue?

The "Ooh" was hot! As was the way Christian submitted to Olli's advances.

I think that was actually the Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's version of Over the Rainbow - which would be appropriate for a tropical island fantasy getaway. youtube.com/watch?v=2A2Jt4WOxN8

The thing I love about this episode is how comfortable Christian is with his relationship with Olli in front of Fabian, Judith, Gregor and Olivia - once they know - he is quite happy to kiss/cuddle Olli- fab!!! By the way check them out in the background at 2.12-2.14 - he straightens Olli's collar, in full view of everyone in NoLimits!!

I think you're right, Jaymac74, about how it shows that Christian has become so easy with showing affection toward Olli. And, besides setting up the week's situation for Judith and Fabian, that's a nice aspect of what they are showing us. Thanks for noting the little collar fix in the background. I hadn't noticed it. It's a nice little gesture. Good eye.
