It always amuses me that despite all the worrying and drama Christian seems to be quite at home when it comes to the physical area ;D After all, including happy teasing post sex. We do know that he buries a lot of stuff (like after the first time where he acted all calm until he freaked out quietly by himself in the bathroom). Christian's a physically-oriented sort of guy. Let's face it, he's a jock after all. The first time he was uncomfortable when Olli tried to take the lead, but then once he took control he seemed much more confident. The same thing happened here. Olli let Christian be dominant and that let Christian retain his sense of manliness and self-assurance. Maybe now that he's actually with Olli as a boyfriend he'll be able to open like they did in the past, especially when they were online.

I also have to note:
- How on earth could Miriam not catch on to what was going on between Chrolli when Oliver accused Christian to be jealous right in front of him? - Christian to Miriam: "Sorry, I have a headache". ;D ;D ;D Isn't that what tired wives are supposed to tell their husbands when they don't want to have sex?

Poor Miriam is the classic tragic straight girl who doesn't realize she's caught in between two guys. I thought it was very funny how she complained to Christian about him staring at the dance floor all night, not realizing that it was Olli specifically that he was staring at. Or that Christian's sour mood was due to seeing the man he loves off dancing with some sleazy guy who sees him as a piece of @$$. That's okay though. I'm sure she can get a consolation from Gregor.

The timeline as I see it: Last night they were at the club. Afterwards they had the fight in the bar and Christian went to bed. The next morning Christian was in his room, Olli talked him into opening the door and they kissed (and hopefully did a lot of other things, too.) In the afternoon Judith came back from her construction job and found them. Seems like they were at it a really long time. So good for them!

I'm watching soapfans's version of the entire episode and whole episode timeline was weird as well. Between the fight and Oliver talking to Christian they have Arno's birthday party and then birthday dinner and when Arno goes for a walk with Lisa (evidently during the day). All very confusing.

Great Ollian stuff! Loved the rest of the fight in the club. Miriam is REALLY dense. Even if she couldn't pick up on what was going on with C/O, how did she not pick up on how disinterested Chrisitan seemed the whole night? It was obvious and not remotely subtle. I want to feel badly for her but I am thinking anything short of skywriting it would be too subtle for her. There were so many good parts but the one that got me was when Christian kissed Oliver's shoulder and his lip kind of dragged over it like he was cherishing the moment. *swoons*Well done by both actors. I am so glad I brought my laptop to work. ;D

Unless I'm gravely mistaken, Miriam's t-shirt said something like "Cherry Valley".
While I'm not sure if this is a double-entendre in the eyes of German speakers, it certainly is one from where I'm sitting. Especially given the way she's been aggressively pursuing Christian.
All I know is that this wouldn't be first-date fashion for a respectable gal in my humble opinion.

I would expect there to be some good natured brotherly teasing eventually once Gregor finds out because of how Christian used to act around gay people. But mostly I think Gregor would be a good brother, happy that Christian is happy, there for him when he's having emotional issues. Christian is just projecting his own issues onto Gregor when Gregor wouldn't actually have a problem. I agree that Gregor would be a good bro, afterall, he has made off handed remarks about homosexuality and "straightened" Christian up about Ollie (right?). And when he said that they looked like they had a romp in the bed, it wasn't with disgust. His gaydar seems to be decent..... Also funny how Olivia can see right through Christian's facade

I just watched it and WOW! The wedding I went to was great, but I must confess it was a good thing I didn't know I missed out on this... ;D What a way to end a beautiful day! Thanks Ivan for the clip!! *Off to watch it another couple of times and then: off to bed... It's almost three in the morning so it's about time... *

Also funny how Olivia can see right through Christian's facade I was wondering that too. So he meant he thought that the 2 had sex together right? Not that the guys score separately at the same time. Because the way Gregor said make me think he was talking the latter rather than the former as he didn't sound very cheeky or suspicious.

I meant they just had a roll in bed together. He was sounding cheeky but not suspicious, because I very much doubt that he would have a problem with Christian's sexuality. He's just concerned when his brother doesn't get lai at all. Gregor worked as a male escort. I seriously doubt he has many hang-ups. Loved the way he flirted with a customer in one of the clips and then told Christian is was no big deal. He's playing in a different team but no harm in trying.

He meant them together. I wouldn't be surprised if he just waits for Christian to tell him. After that jealousy scene that Christian did in the cafe, Gregor could put it all together. It would be nice if Christian's projections in his dream turned out completely wrong

Heh, it would be so awesome if, when Christian finally outs himself to Gregor, the latter just says, "Duh. Anything else?" ;D

Just want to say a huge thank you to Ivan and Nanna for yet again delivering great videos!
Today's was the best yet, I literally can't wait for the next one. At least there's a new Dr Who tonight to tide me over, lol.

I didn't notice til you pointed that out so I re-watched the clip (a total chore! ) and I saw the shirt. That shirt would have been all kinds of *something* for a gal to wear on a first date here in the USA.

I love your icon Thanks. Most of the time I don't know what I'm doing, I just put the pictures in photoshop and fiddle around with the settings until something looks right. It works... sometimes, lol. Am I right in thinking that after Monday's episode we have to wait a whole week for the next one?

I'm so glad there are clips like these to watch when you start feeling depressed by one of the other stories...

Thanks. WOW Gregor can wear that blue shirt well. I'm so glad I found this forum. Thank you for these lovely pictures, they're just beautiful. Here I was, drooling over all of these caps, and when I read the first comment, I was all "Wha... Gregor?? He was in this episode?" ;D

LOL This is THE episode - and yet only 4 pages of discussion - most of that discussing Miriam's T-shirt If we got an episode like this now - there'd be 10 pages within the first half hour ;D Mind you - I suppose it was this episode which brought most of us here to start with

Perhaps it's taken people a while to find this forum, and get going with all the comments? I think I discovered Christian and Olli back in April, but I didn't start looking for anything more about them until the last few weeks.
As for Judith/Fabian - I have to admit that when C & O are on screen I don't notice anyone else. ;D But I do like Judith. She reminds me of the girl who played Buffy's friend ... (sorry, I can't remember her name - I'm not a big watcher of TV shows).
