After their victory as a «heathen couple», Jorik is perplexed to realize that he and Amelie must continue to pretend to be a couple - for advertising appearances and for Britta. Because Amelie cannot bring herself to tell her sister the truth. Jorik is all the more surprised when Amelie honestly suggests trying again as a couple. Heiner offers Britta to look for evidence of Noah’s innocence with her at the accident site. Britta does not know whether this is good for her.

And so one blames the other for repairing Johanna’s broken faucet. Elyas is looking for a new tenant for Simon’s old shared room. It’s a good thing that Svenja’s half-sister Toni wants to move to Lüneburg and is looking for a room. Noah isn’t happy. But maybe Noah finds Toni more likeable than he admits.

Noah is hurt that Toni suspects him of being the driver of the accident and leaves her without an answer. Together with Heiner, Toni searches the scene of the accident for evidence and they find it.

He realizes that his father has supported the family financially before. But when Arthur confesses to Till that he only wanted to buy himself out of his responsibility, he is bitterly disappointed in his father.

She is also not prepared to contact the twins’ father, but she can only be persuaded to have her blood group determined: she has group zero. For Valerie and Julius there is only one explanation for Valerie’s different blood group: Hans is not their father. Did Gisela cheat?
