Lots of talk today, I tried to write down the gist of it. SchneidersChristian and Olli are sitting at a table at Schneiders, talking about their wedding guests. Christian's looking forward to seeing Gregor most of all. Olli says Luise will hopefully not be too pregnant for the journey. They talk about inviting Stella and Carla. 'What about your cousin?', Christian wants to know. 'Olivia? It's a pity that I don't have her address in LA, I'd send her a disinvitation.' They start talking about the HIV test. Olli asks, 'What if only one of us would've had the virus?'. 'Then we'd still be planning our wedding… for better or for worse', Christian says. They kiss. Charlie joins them… Translation from the sneak-peek, thanks to liz!
Charlie: Well the planning's progressing? Who's on the guest list? Also my favorite sister? Christian: What sister? Charlie: Yes, I'm Olli's aunt, you remember? And, no, your groom wasn't brought by the stork! Christian: Well, if you count the times he's talked about his mother, you could really believe that. Olli: And you know why. All those stories have no happy end. Charlie: Good old Henriette. This will be an amusing reunion! Olli: Are you nuts? She's definitely on the black list! Christian: We have a black list? Olli: Now we do! Charlie: It's your wedding. Olli: Right! And she's a persona non grata!Christian: That's a pity! I'd love to know where you've got your radiant eyes from. Charlie: From me of course! Olli: Not a word to my mother, okay! Charlie: Yes. - - - Christian thinks Henriette must have some nice qualities, after all she's Olli's mother. If Christian thinks that intolerance and a know-it-all manner are nice… 'You haven't told me much about her', Christian says. And it's better this way, Olli replies. Does Christian know what she said when he was coming out? 'You'll have to get treatment, Oliver, this is not normal.' Doesn't Olli remember? It wasn't easy for Christian as well. Maybe his mother is just afraid that… Olli interrupts him: 'My mother is just interested in what other people might say. Neighbors, friends, the dachshund club. She never cared about me. Why can't she be like Charlie?' Christian thinks that maybe she has changed. 'We now live in totally different times, we even have a gay minister of foreign affairs. It's much more normal now.' But not for Henriette Thatcher *, says Olli, he definitely doesn't want her at his wedding. He'll go to the bathroom now and when he returns they'll talk about something else! * thanks to luckycharm for catching that! - - - Christian and Charlie are talking at the bar. Charlie thought that they argued, she tells him that Olli reacts pretty allergic to the 'mother' topic. Christian wants to know if Henriette is really that bad. Yes, Charlie confirms, her sister is very narrow-minded. Christian thinks both sides should pull themselves together, it's about their wedding! Charlie looks at him, 'Don't do it!', she says. Christian's thinking about inviting her without Olli's knowledge. He doesn't want him to regret it later, he wants it to be the best day of his life and he wants him to feel good. 'Then stop thinking about it', Charlie tells him. 'Don't invite her to your house voluntarily, except if you want a stressful party with lots of arguments.' Olli comes back from the bathroom, puts his arms around Christian's waste and asks him if he tries to talk Charlie into it. 'No!', they look at each other, 'Yes', Christian admits. Charlie explains that she talked him out of it. That's good, Olli says, because she is and will remain on the black list. 'Yeah, okay', Christian replies, 'it was just an idea, a stupid idea!'. Olli agrees, he says he wants an unforgettable wedding. Well, maybe then we should invite Henriette after all, Charlie suggests. Christian laughs, Olli is not amused. Charlie: 'Sorry!' ApartmentChristian and Olli look at their wedding invitations. Olli thinks they look great, Christian agrees and says Olli did a great job choosing them. Olli says this shows once and for all who of them has the better taste. 'Me of course', says Christian, 'I'm with you!' and kisses Olli. 'Now all we have to do is say yes' , Olli says. Olli should better make sure he doesn't say the wrong words. What does Christian mean, not say the wrong words?(*) What about 'for better or for worse, till death to us part'? Christian seems lost in thought. 'What's wrong?', Olli wants to know. Christian says that Gregor still regrets never having been able to reconcile with their father. Olli explains that he has tried to please his mother for years, he just can't offer her a daughter-in-law or grandchildren. Maybe she doesn't care about that anymore, Christian says. Olli thinks it's great that Christian is concerned about that but it really is better if Henriette won't show up for the wedding, they'd just argue. 'Olli', Christian says, 'I'd be happy if my mother was still alive, I'd love to argue with her.' (*) In German 'versprechen' has two meanings. I didn't come up with a good way to translate this. Christian says: 'Sieh mal zu, dass du dich nicht versprichst'/'Be sure to not say the wrong words/make a slip of the tongue'. Olli answers: 'Wie, keine Versprechen?'/'What do you mean, no promises?'. No Limits'These are the last ones, everybody's invited!', says Christian and seals the last invitation, looks at Olli and says 'or not?'. Olli puts one last invitation in an envelope and writes an address on it. Christian takes a look at the address and asks 'Are you sure?'. Olli nods. Christian puts his arm around him and says: 'Maybe it won't be that bad!'. Olli doubts that. Christian: 'If all else fails, you'll still have me'. He takes the envelope, seals it and asks Miriam to post it on her way home. Miriam agrees. Christian and Olli look at each other.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I find it hard to believe that Olli doesn't care at all about Olivia. No matter how many times he told himself he wouldn't forgive her he always did, and yet now it has been basically a year without her and he doesn't give a crap. Even if he doesn't like her, I think he'd still be curious about her. Funny how the writers keep randomly mentioning her, I'm hoping it means that they might bring it up as some point in the future. Otherwise it would seem they'd forgotten she ever existed...

Otherwise it would seem they'd forgotten she ever existed... you took the words RIGHT out of my mouth. another WTF?!! moment. If Olli can forgive rebecca...well..EVERYTHING he certainly must care about his flesh and blood. That he would extend the olive branch to his mother and continue to think ill of olivia is a REALLY messed up thing to do to the character. Though it could be a coping mechanism, him pretending to be totally fine when on the inside he misses her terribly. I think that's what I'll choose to believe.

Olli's brother doesn't seem to exist anymore, too. ^ I know! Don't the scriptwriters get background on the characters they're writing about?? Hopefully there'll be some kind of explanation though... Thanks for the brilliant recap MM!

Long recap today *_______* thank you so much Mercury! The episode was beyond fantastic, Christian was terribly cute! He said all the right things to Olli and I liked so much the fact that he conviced him to invite his mother to the wedding and not doing it behind his boyfriend back.

You're welcome, everyone! I just added an explanation for the "speaking the wrong words" part to my recap. I realize that the meaning gets kind of lost in my translation. Maybe the explanation will help.
