I like Roman but TIIC need to stop having him run after Deniz as Deniz should be the one chasing after Roman (once Deniz gets his shit together). In the meantime, I'd like Roman to meet a man who is already secure because Roman has some serious trust issues he needs to sort out.

Roman is such a Diva. I would love him to have a temporary love interest or fuck buddy to distract him from Deniz, but that would be too many gay people for a soap, even in Germany.

Somehow I have a hard time picturing Roman as the fuckbuddy type. It seems that even with this really short term relationship with Andrew he was trying to make things nice. I do think he needs to date outside. But I would expect it to be more like "Pah! This guy deserves me so much more! See! See!"(regardless of whether he would end up going back to Deniz or not) Basically diva again.  |

I have to say, DG is just an amazing actor. His comedic and his drunk timing are amazing.
I was surprised that they didn't kiss because DG mentioned in his interview that nobody asked him how it felt for him when he kissed Anette. So was he talking about a different scene?
The placement of the episode confuses me a bit. Roman is already pining over Deniz, yet here Deniz is still trying to impress Nina (when Vanessa gets him the diamond he tells her not to come along because it could be dangerous and then adds and because he wants to be a hero in Nina's eyes) when in some of the recent episodes gabi shared he was already telling Nina that it was just a flirt for him and that he wasn't interested in her.
I keeps creeping me out that Jenny and Nina just look so similar to me.

And after seeing it, I think Deniz dicked over Roman less than he did Nina, which is saying a whole lot. Roman gets some of the best one-liners when he isn't stalking Deniz.  Why won't TIIC give Roman a new man or at least show him out trying to have fun? If they don't have Roman melancholy over Deniz then he's playing the "gay best friend role " (we've all seen that particular role in plenty of movies and a few other TV shows) for Annette and Ingo. Roman - and Dennis for that matter - deserve more than that. Dennis is a very good actor! |

I'm still confused about the timeline of the clips.
1.) Here we have Deniz being interested in impressing Nina (Not the first time either, there is also this clip where Deniz brags about beating up the mob guy and Roman shooting down his story by saying the mob guy whupped Deniz butt) and Roman already hung up on Deniz.
2.) Then we have the clip at the party, Deniz tells Nina it wasn't serious/Nina at this point is interested in Deniz/Roman kisses Deniz.
3.) Then we have the aftermath, because of the kiss the team is teasing Deniz and because of that he uses Nina as his alibi.
So what happened between 1 and 2? what was the event that made Deniz lose interest and made Nina gain interest?

So what happened between 1 and 2? what was the event that made Deniz lose interest and made Nina gain interest? Deniz was never really interested in Nina. I think he plays the womanizer ever since the events in Munich. He did'nt realize Nina was serious. Vanessa told him that Nina actually hoped for more and Deniz should tell her it's just a flirt, so he did that. Nina was desperate. After the Party, when the photo was in the newspaper and the team suspects he's really gay, he uses Nina again as an alibi, not caring about her feelings. Maybe he thinks he can really be with her, he is puzzled by Roman's kiss and feels attracted to him, but at that time he does not know yet how strong his preference for men is. On the other hand he is relieved that Nina does not want sex yet. |

It just seems strange to me, because it seemed to me that some of his remarks were made in a situation where he really didn't have to prove anything. Same for that one scene they threw in where Nina throws on a sexy dress and tries to confuse Roman and Deniz and Deniz stares at her ass as she walks away even though he is mostly weirded out by her approach.
There is also the whole thing about how DeVa came to pass where they were having sex in secret while Deniz was still publicly in a relationship with Roman and apparently afraid to break it off. In a really strange twist of him hiding his het relationship while being perceived as gay in public.
If the point of this story is to be that Deniz is ashamed of being gay it doesn't make a lick of sense.
But thank you a lot for posting those additional clips. Maybe the whole picture will become clearer over time.
To me he looked disappointed because he couldn't fulfill all of his deception (since he knew everybody was listening on the other side of the door but he also had to keep playing the gentleman for Nina). I do agree that he doesn't come across as being actually interested in Nina in these clips.

I'm beginning to think that we need to write fanmail to Dennis Grabosch in the form of the addresses of gay clubs all over Essen for Roman. To showcase and complain how idiotic it is that "there are no other bunnies" in Essen.

I've already asked this question on the Blog, but I'm gonna ask it here again. It's a question for the german viewers about yesterday's ep:
When Roman can't sleep and switches on the tellie we can hear the credits and the beginning of a show? Am I wrong or is he watching 'Mein Leben und ich'? I think it's the title music of that show and we can hear Wolke Hegenbarth talk about her brother. But that show hasn't aired for quite a while now.

Babylondancer, I thought so too. God, how much I loved that show. I wish RTL would really show re-runs late at night.
