Last episode, when Mikkel arrived at the school, Katharina, Hannah and some other girls talked about a song ("Jeanny" by Austrian singer Falco), which is about a guy who captures a girl, takes her to the woods and k1lls her, because her red lipstick caught his attention. When Elli takes the lipstick out of her pocket, every German and Austrian who was around in 1985/86 (when it was a big hit, despite [or because] causing kind of a scandal), was like "Oh hell no, she's next!". We were as relieved as you two, when she appears home and felt like we fell for a red herring. But nothing in the show happens unintentional, even if not everything is connected to the BIG secret. By the way, do you see the irony, that you guys end your reaction with "See you next time"? 😂
The wait for any of your weekly reactions have never felt longer than it has for this show. I started watching the show like a day before you dropped episode 2, and I finished it before you dropped episode 3, I need more of your reactions man.
Imagine how long the viewers had to wait for season 2 and 3 when they originally watched it when it came out! Had to wait a year for season 3 after finishing season 2. Felt like 33 years😂
I think this episode is the first occurrence of a little german easter egg, that people from most other countries can't understand. It is not really of importance, but I thought it's a neat little fun fact you might be interested in: Around 20:12 in this video there is a piece of trash on the ground. A golden wrapping with a red "Raider" lable on it. Most german viewers will immediately know, that this trash time traveled!!! This is actually a wrapping of a Twix. But when Twix was introduced to Germany and a bunch of other contries ~60 years ago they thought the name would sound to foreign and therefore unappealing to customers in those countries. So they sold Twix under the name "Raider", until they decided in 1991 that this is too confusing in a more and more globalised world and therefore started to unify the branding. In Germany this rebranding came with a huge advertisment campaign that had a catchy slogan, that at some point everyone knew: "Raider heißt jetzt Twix - sonst ändert sich nix" ("Raider is now called Twix - nothing else changes"). I think one of the reasons why this slogan got stuck so strongly in peoples minds was because of the interesting timing. We just had the fall of the Berlin wall, the collaps of the soviet union (and therefore the end of the cold war) and following that the reunification of east and west Germany. And now they also change the name of one of the most popular snaks! But don't worry "nothing else changes". We are done with big changes now. With this big milestone of rebranding Raider to Twix we finally reached normality! In the end this slogen got stuck so much, that it became a common phrase to describe situations that from the outside look like a huge change while in reality there is not really a difference. (Ok... this phrase is not really that common, but it is used some times and people usually know what is ment with it. I am to young to remember those advertisements, but my parents said it often enough that I understood the meaning when I saw a Raider wrapping in this show.) The point is: Everyone who lived in Germany during the early 90s strongly connects the rebranding of Raider to Twix with the year 1991. So whenever you see a Twix wrapping, that is labeled with "Rider", you know that it was purchased before 1991.
I’m beyond excited for next episodes reaction! One of my favorite episodes of season 1 💜 I commend you both for watching the show on a weekly basis, I couldn’t do it! I had to binge it! I needed answers 😂
If the guy who snuck in and wrote on the map just changed "Where is the opening?" to "When is the opening?"...what a troll! I mean, yeah it is an actual hint for Jonas, but that's like a shitpost of a clue. XD
Ellie correctly applying lipstick never stuck out as odd to me. I suspect clandestine mucking about in a relative’s makeup drawer is a fairly common experience among young girls (and surely at least some boys?). Furthermore, lipstick is absolutely the easiest thing to apply and make look good in the average makeup kit. Foundations, blushes, bronzers, etc. are easy to put on, but easy to go overboard with, and forget blending. Eyeshadow? Mascara?! EYELINER?! Arcane arts.
You guys are awesome for reacting 🌑 DARK .. I'm subscribing your channel here. one request can you react to PEAKY BLINDERS if you haven't watched it yet?
There are different stages when watching Dark. We have entered the casting appreciation stage.

nah bro we need atleast 2 eps a week
Please guys, 2 ep per week! Your reactions are great!
Agree with other commentators. Two episodes per week. Great reactions by both.
I'm so thankful Dark dropped as a binge, instead of weekly. That's a show that really works with the binge model.
@ludenunes6606 They didn't have to wait a year in between seasons though. Lol
