I'm starting to think that Rebecca must be a psycho because she's showing no signs of a bad conscience over what she's done. She's not even bothered that her brother thinks that Christian is the culprit, at least not bothered enough to actually own up to what she's done and put Tristan out of his misery. I get that she can't help having feelings for Marlene but for heaven's sake she didn't have to act on them. Laughably it seemed she was more worried about the effect on her friendship with Marlene than the effect it would have on her brother. Also I really don't buy Olli and Christian being at all supportive towards her about this. They both know just how hurtful and destructive cheating can be and yet they're acting like Rebecca's the victim when that is the last thing she is.

They both know just how hurtful and destructive cheating can be and yet they're acting like Rebecca's the victim when that is the last thing she is. I don't think Christian is viewing this whole thing through the lens of their cheating/divorce experience. It is taking him back to the beginnings of their relationship and he is empathizing with Marlene. He is supporting Rebecca because she's his friend, and to give him credit, he has reminded her numerous times that Marlena is with her brother. As for Olli, I do agree that he's a bit hypocritical to support Rebecca given his recent history, but prior to that he himself interfered in a relationship in the same way -- he kissed Christian (and also Coco) and then told Christian that he was in love with him all while Christian and Coco were still together and he had no way of knowing Christian's feelings. Maybe he also feels it's different if the person cheats with someone they are in love with, versus the one-night stand kind of cheating. Mostly I think the writers just need someone to prop Marbecca and don't care about consistency, as usual. Also, Rebecca's been "psycho" before. She was best friends with Olli, and then went after Christian, remember? I suppose she may have had a bad conscience over that, although I always thought that was more lip service than reality.

I agree with you about Christian. I don't think that he believes in cheating, but he does have the benefit of seeing both sides and he wants them to work it out and is not telling either what the other is saying. When Tristan came into the room, he told him to talk to Marlene about their problems. He wants everything out in the open. I think that is what Olli wants too. I think that he felt that Rebecca should have told Marlene her feelings from the start. That is what he did. Even if it might have been wrong. He let his feeling be known to Christian and then he left the ball in Christian's court.
Rebecca has done none of that. She has built all this under the banner of friendship. She not wanting to lose her friendship with Marlene was her way of staying close to her and trying to get want she wanted and wear her down. Even when she came to the club. Marlene was polite and obviously not all ready to run into her arms, but she woun't let her leave until she touched her.
Marlene is wrong for keeping secrets from Tristan, but at least she is confused. Rebecca is playig dirty and feels not guilty as the behind her brothers back plays on his girlfriends doubts. It will be interesting to see what happens when Tristan finds out the truth.

Teachgirl and Trish I completely agree with both of you I have found in this story line Rebecca to be the least sympathetic character int this triangle, whereas I loved Olli for the fact that he was honest with Christian and finally Coco when she found out about their kiss. Its given Chrolli a strong core in their relationship as they have always tried to be honest with each other even when that honesty destroyed their relationship.
With Marbecca they don't really have that because Rebecca was never upfront with her feelings which hasn't helped Marlene with her feelings the one good thing that has come out of this is Marlene and Christian's friendship which is going from strength to strength but not at the cost of Chrolli's relationship.
