Kahnweiler tries desperately to make small talk. But Vera rebukes him: “I prefer not to talk about work during meals.” She also irons out questions about hobbies. Father Fendrich rebuilds Kahnweiler: Don’t let her unapproachable nature fool you. Once you break through their armor…”
It quickly becomes clear that there is more to the invitation than just an interview. The professor wishes for grandchildren. “Do you actually like children, Dr. Kahnweiler?” The next encounter arranged by the would-be grandpa in the posh restaurant goes just as wrong. She comments on Kahnweiler’s attempts to start a conversation: “No offense Mr. Kahnweiler, but is it possible that you are not exactly the brightest bulb in the candlestick?”
Kahnweiler counters: “Doctor Fendrich, it’s always enough to illuminate your corners.” After the meal, she then clarifies: “I find your presence neither pleasant nor inspiring.” And she is sure that he feels the same way: “Please no more false pleasantries, you only insult me.”
How the two became a dream couple can be seen in the ZDF Mediathek be tracked. All seasons of “Der Bergdoktor” are available there.
