Wow, faily spoilerfail is faily: Episode 1291
Not really a spoiler post. More of a discussion/rant/eyerolling post? Whatever. But here there be spoilers, or at least one.
Episode 1291
Sarah and Deniz become friends.
Sarah realises that she can no longer sleep at the dance school. When she ends up at the bar with Deniz, he spontaneously offers her a place to sleep at his flat for a night. When Sarah brings up the subject of Roman the next morning, Deniz initially feels overwhelmed. But then he realises that something special connects him and Sarah.
...
Background info for those who've not been following spoilers: Sarah is the new chick, Melanie's sister. She's a hip hop dancer. Dancing is her DREAM. She recently moved to Essen to be closer to Melanie. It was hate at first sight between her and Marco the dance teacher. She is POOR so she's been sleeping at the dance school. Yadda yadda yadda yackety yak, same as usual (hi Diana/Stella/Katja!). Oh right, and her and Melanie's parents died/are missing in the 2004 tsunami.
So yeah, the "special connection"? Is most likely WE ARE BOTH MOURNING DEAD PEOPLE, OMG WE HAVE SO MUCH IN COMMON. WE SHOULD BE FRIENDS AND THEN WE SHOULD HEAR HEARTBEATS. It makes sense to recycle that, because when Stella told Lars about her dead mother after he told her about his dead wife, it made me INSTANTLY realise they were meant for each other.
Disclaimer: Yeah, yeah, it says "friends." And yeah, after watching this show shamelessly recycle the same tired old formulas for years, I am pretty sure that Marco/Sarah are supposed to be the new OTP and will ultimately discover their equally clichéd and recycled feelings for each other. But there is no force in the universe that could currently convince me that we are NOT staring at the sickly seedlings of a Deniz/Stella-like "great love" plot first.
...
IDEK, Show. IDEK. I didn't expect any differently, I truly didn't. I'm way too cynical and way too familiar with how this show works for that. But I guess for all that I am still a stupid naive cow, because I honestly believed they might wait longer than TWENTY EPISODES AFTER ROMAN'S DEATH.
Someone pass me a new barf bag, I beg you. And a new scotch bottle.
