82: Das große Wiedersehen - Teil 2 | The big reunion - part 2

Get upset about someone, blow off steam, make excuses & order of dative and accusative in a sentence when both objects are personal pronouns.

Paul confronts Fritz, who does not apologize, but justifies his behavior instead: His new girl is Paul’s ex girlfriend, and he thought Paul would mind. So he didn't tell him. He blocked his facebook posts for all of his friends because it was supposed to be a surprise that he caught the Großkauf thieves, got the promotion, the vacation, and the holiday home. But he forgot that Meili is also on facebook and can see his posts. Since he was late for Paul’s party, he didn’t hear him say the book is valuable. And he just „borrowed“ it for his new girl. Later he wanted to give it back. But then Paul made a big deal about it and upset everybody. So he wanted to have another party to get a chance to secretly put it back. But there were no more parties, soe he tried to visit Paul to put it back. But he came and stood in front of closed doors. Fritz says both his phone and SIM card are broken because they got wet in a rain. He couldn't get in touch and didn’t mean to ignore him. He has no phone numbers, no logins for social media and messengers, and no access to e-mail. Paul wants to know where his book is. Fritz is shocked to hear that he doesn't already have it. Why is Fritz so shocked and thinks Paul already has the book? If he thinks Paul already has the book, why wasn’t he surprised that he is still mad at him?

Learn German with Stories - the idea behind it

We felt that the best way to learn German is NOT using the old style teaching material with chapters full of tiny texts and unrelated stories. Our idea was to spoon-feed you German in very small bits. And to tell you parts of one big story at the same time. An awesome, full-blown story with different storylines that continues throughout all lessons. We wanted to keep you motivated and say "I can't wait to find out what happens next episode!"
