Reach for the stars...

Exhale and...

inhale and stretch.

Mr. Karow, I know you're not used to it,

but you could try

to feel your body more.

You are completely tense.

Inhale and stretch.

And reach for the stars. And exhale.

Inhale.

Yes, Mr. Karow, that's good.

Michael, you have made progress.

We're going for a walk tomorrow.

We're going outside.

Thank you for your contribution.

Pete, it's your turn.

I told you everything last time.

What am I supposed to say?

We had gotten to where the entire

Leipzig police force was after you.

That's not true, but it doesn't matter.

My problem isn't the Leipzig police,

it's your f***ing pills. Without 'em,

I'd be out doing my apprenticeship.

The police aren't the problem.

You're the problem.

- Pete, we've gone over this.

I'm done till you stop giving me pills!

Fine.

And you, Mr. Karow?

Don't you want to sit on your ball?

No way!

Fine.

Man!

Pete, what are you doing?

Man, what are you looking for?

- My USA T-shirt.

What shirt?

- My USA T-shirt!

It's gone!

Pete, you're wearing your USA T-shirt!

Pete, everything's okay.

How is he now?

- He's asleep. He took his pills.

What's wrong with him?

Crystal Meth.

Crystal is hardcore.

And him?

He's called Gebhard.

Goa Gebhard. It took a year

for his parents to find him in India.

He never came off his LSD. His friend

drowned while they were tripping.

He's never talked since. Nothing.

Straight-AA student.

Night, Icka.

- See you tomorrow.

Icka, what's wrong?

Is the TV too loud?

Everything's full of water.

- What?

We have to do something.

Here?

Jamal, what's going on? You alright?

Water everywhere.

- Wait, I'm coming. - Water all over...

Turn it off.

Turn the water off.

Here... Open your hand.

Yes...

You've got everything on the market

in your bloodstream: THC,

ketamine, MDMA, MDA, amphetamines,

cocaine...

Everything except heroin.

Your cocaine levels

are extremely high, Mr. Karow.

The pill's results

are also very disturbing.

Instead of MDMA,

the pill contained 100 mg of MDA.

And what upsets me the most

is the 40 mg of highly toxic PMA

in the pill.

PMA is a strong hallucinogen

and causes a large increase

in blood pressure and body temperature.

The substance PMA

has also been known to cause death.

Mr. Karow...

You are free to leave any time,

but I strongly recommend...

you take some time off.

Under our supervision.

We're stopping the promo

and the album goes on ice.

You can't do that.

- Mathilde, I already stopped the promo

and pushed up another production.

When Ickarus finds out

he will totally freak out!

Icka has to learn to drink water.

Are you worried about your job?
