Park and Slide

Summary With Ben Reiman being voted the latest graduate of the season, five nominees remain at the Drivers' Rehabilitation Centre. Their first two challenges are parking ones, the first in a parking lot, the second parallel parking on a simulated narrow and crowded street situation. The parking lot challenge requires the nominees to back into one of the four parking stalls which will be made available - leaving one person unable to park - while battling other pushy drivers. The parallel parking challenge requires each to park in one fluid motion without hitting either the curb or the other cars. Many believe it is easier to do so in the small car in which Peter teaches them the skill, rather than the full sized 1967 Chrysler Newport they drive in the challenge. Peter, however tries to stress that the mechanics of the skill are the same regardless of vehicle size. The third challenge is the annual know where your wheels are trough challenge. One nominee completes the challenge despite bad advice from the passenger, another has a meltdown and fails to complete the attempt, while yet another attempts a potentially tragic maneuver. The fourth challenge is the annual skid and turn challenge on a simulated icy road. Most master the skill when taught to them by Philippe, but fail the actual challenge itself. With only one person who successfully completes all four challenges, that person would seem to be the obvious choice as this week's graduate, but...

Ich leih mir eine Familie

Ich leih mir eine Familie

Ben is a hard-working advertising man. The climber who is completely fixated on his career does not want to know anything about family and children. His girlfriend Juliane thinks a little differently. The successful doctor is expecting a marriage proposal and is already secretly preparing a joint apartment: as a surprise for Ben's 40th birthday. At the agency, too, Ben is suddenly caught up with the topic of family: In order to get the multi-million dollar budget for a large baby product campaign, Ben has to pretend to be the passionate father of the skeptical client Hans Feldmann, a company boss of the old school. When Feldmann then wants to get to know the supposed family of the agency boss personally, Ben only has to flee forwards: With the tongues of angels, he tries to persuade his childhood sweetheart Hanna to play a harmonious temporary family with him and their two sons Paul and Jonas. Hanna actually has no reason to bail Ben, after all, he has already hurt her deeply. She only gets involved in the game for financial reasons. She also enjoys the fact that the vain, arrogant egoist finally crawls to the cross in front of her. Although Feldmann's ambitious son-in-law Andreas grows suspicious, Ben's plan works perfectly. Even a little too perfect: because against his will, Ben proves himself to be a great father, and things start to crackle again between him and Hanna. Hanna realizes too late that she should have listened to her brother Carsten, who warned her about the unscrupulous heartbreaker.
