00:00Look up to the ocean, look up to the stars
00:03Now all of what you believe
00:06When there's a scene, no hope
00:09You can still believe
00:12Still believe in your dreams
00:16In all my dreams
00:19In all my dreams
00:23In all my dreams
00:30Ben, come on!
00:33What kept you this time?
00:35I'm brain concombe with school starting at 8am
00:37It's uncivilised
00:38But an early start means you have more time for yourself in the afternoon
00:41In theory, maybe
00:42But you're so exhausted by then, all you want to do is sleep
00:44Oh, poor Dittems
00:46It's such a tough life
00:48Part of the deal in coming here
00:51Was to spend a few weeks in a German school
00:53Normally school and I aren't exactly what you call friendly
00:56But back home, this didn't matter so much
00:58Because I have my mates to hang out with
00:59I mean, mates are what school is all about, right?
01:03Like, take end of semester
01:04If you didn't have mates, you might as well stay at home
01:07One, two, three
01:08But if your mates are with you, it was a riot
01:10Literally
01:10Got your ass out
01:11Oh, you get yours, Bailey
01:13Hands coming!
01:17Oh!
01:17And if occasionally things did go wrong
01:34My office
01:35Now
01:36Then having a few mates around to share the pain
01:39Was an educational necessity
01:40How many times have I told you three about this sort of behaviour?
01:44Too many to count, sir
01:46Exactly, too many to count
01:47Sorry, sir
01:48Sorry!
01:49I'm amazed you lot can pronounce it, let alone feel it
01:52Yes, sir
01:52And as for you, Bailey, I've no doubt you're the mastermind
01:55Although I use that term in the loosest possible sense
01:57Well, sir
01:58Actually, sir, it was me who thought it up
02:01You
02:01No, I think he means me
02:03It was my idea, sir
02:04Mate, it was my fault
02:06No, mate, it was my fault
02:08Mate, mate, mate, it was my fault, mate
02:10Quiet!
02:12Okay
02:12If you all insist you're responsible, you can all share the same punishment
02:17Detention for a month
02:18Oh
02:19That okay?
02:22Mates
02:22Mates
02:23You can see what I'm getting at, right?
02:26Mates help make the unbearable bearable
02:28Which left the big question
02:29How boring would it be at a school on the other side of the planet
02:32Where I knew absolutely no one
02:34Ben!
02:36Hey, Ben!
02:37That's where I got lucky
02:38Almost as soon as I walked through the front gate on day one
02:41I found some guys to hang with
02:42Or, to be honest, they found me
02:45Hey, guys
02:47What's up?
02:49We thought we'd go into town after school
02:50You want to join us?
02:52Say no more, mate
02:53I'm already there
02:53Cool
02:54Looks like Ben's found some new best friends
02:58Hopefully not for long
03:00That guy Eric
03:01Is a slime bucket of the first order
03:04Clearly it's in everyone's interest
03:10To make our houses more energy efficient
03:13School in Germany is actually not that different from school in Australia
03:17And the amazing thing is
03:18You find the same types of kids in exactly the same position in the class
03:22Like the hard-working teacher's pets always sitting up the front
03:25And yes, you've guessed it
03:26My sister is right in there with them
03:28Then there are the slackers who never pay attention
03:31And are always sitting up the back of the class
03:33I've never worked out when they're mainly always boys
03:36And then, usually somewhere in the middle
03:38There's the girl who is so amazingly hot
03:41But she doesn't even know it
03:44And then there's me
03:45My strategy for classroom survival is simple
03:47Make myself a small target
03:49Off to the side, out of sight, under the radar
03:52Sometimes I can go for a whole semester
03:54Without the teacher even knowing I exist
03:56Ben
03:58Houston, we have a problem
04:00Yes, miss?
04:01Maybe you'd like to come to the front
04:03And tell us what you think?
04:04Uh, about what?
04:06About the topic we've been discussing
04:08The last 10 minutes global warming
04:11The problem is I have no opinion whatsoever
04:14Gee, Mrs. Muntz, I'd hate to bore everyone with my thoughts
04:17Don't be so modest Ben
04:19We'll all be very interested to hear an Australian point of view on the subject
04:24Well, my opinion is that global warming is a very major, seriously significant topic
04:39And I think there's just not enough proper discussion on it
04:43To be properly informed, we need to be open to listen to others
04:46For example, Sophie
04:48I know that you would have a view on this vital subject
04:51Would you care to share it with us?
04:53Certainly Ben
04:54I think it's in everyone's interest to take care of our planet
04:58After all, the survival of our species as well as every other creature depends on it
05:04I couldn't agree more
05:05Please keep going Sophie
05:06I think you and I are on exactly the same wavelength here
05:09On guard, Marcus
05:13Ha ha
05:14I'm not sure I'm going to be much good at this baron
05:16This is exactly where we must practice
05:18So
05:20Now I arm
05:22Reprise
05:24Murri
05:25Rest
05:26Yield I command you the name of the von Hasenburg
05:29Never
05:30Wow
05:31And finally the brave baron disarms the person with his signature von Hasenburg counter repose
05:37Like so
05:38Bravo daddy and brilliantly lost Marcus
05:43Thanks in this case losing comes naturally
05:46All hail baron von Hasenburg savior of the town
05:50What is this all about?
05:52They're rehearsing the freedom day celebration
05:54Every year we reenact the battle of 1438
05:57When the feet Hasenburg liberated Hasenburg from the Prussians
06:00Sounds quite ritual
06:02You'll love it
06:03I play the part of the narrator and daddy plays Baron Siegfried
06:06And Marcus here has kindly volunteered to be our present general
06:09I don't think that volunteered is exactly the right word
06:13I was thinking that Ben might play my trusty man servant
06:16Do you think he could do that?
06:17Provided he has no lines to learn no moves to make
06:21Or no props to carry then yeah Ben would be perfect
06:25Well perhaps we might forget that then Marcus
06:28So what's the guy guys feel like something to eat?
06:32Maybe later Ben there's something we want to show you first
06:35What's that?
06:36Not what?
06:37Who?
06:38Say hello to Ziggy
06:39Hi Ziggy
06:40They dress him up every year and every year the challenge goes out
06:44To have the last laugh on him
06:46Last laugh?
06:47Put a pair of donkey ears on his head
06:49Why donkeys ears?
06:50It's kind of a local joke
06:52Some of the people around here are very stuffy about things
06:55So donkey ears would be a symbol to show you how stupid and out of touch they are
06:59Many guys have tried but no one ever managed to do it
07:02Can't be that hard can it?
07:04It has to be done at night so no one sees us
07:07And tonight would be the perfect night
07:09The whole town would see it tomorrow morning
07:11Too easy, tonight it is then
07:13There's a problem
07:14We can't do it tonight
07:15Our families are all together for dinner
07:18Pity
07:19It would have been hilarious
07:22No worries
07:23I can do it for you
07:24I sure Ben?
07:25Hey
07:26What are friends for right?
07:27Sounds pretty good
07:28You'll be some kind of hero if you can pull this off Ben
07:32So
07:33Where do I get these ears?
07:35And so it was that brave Baron Ziggy did battle
07:39With his mighty Prussian foe General von Schlockmeister
07:44Hour upon hour they fought
07:46But with the fate of the town at stake
07:48The Baron knew he dare not lose
07:50Then
07:55Finally after an epic battle
07:58Finally after an epic battle
08:00Truth, justice and the von Hasenburg way prevailed
08:03And the Baron overwhelmed his opponent
08:06Yield I command in the name of the von Hasenburg
08:10Never
08:11Ah
08:12Daddy
08:13Ah
08:14Sorry Baron I didn't mean to
08:15No, I think I've sprayed
08:17Marcus call the doctor
08:18Right away
08:19Sorry Baron I didn't mean to distract you
08:20Yeah, yeah, it's alright Ben
08:22I'm sure I live
08:23What were you thinking?
08:24Oh, that's right you probably weren't
08:26It was an accident, okay?
08:27Don't make me feel worse than I already do
08:30Where are you going?
08:32I have to prepare for class tomorrow
08:34Are you kidding me?
08:35Since when have you ever prepared for class?
08:37It's the new me, okay?
08:39I want to do Australia proud
08:41Do Australia proud?
08:43He can barely find Australia on a map
08:45He's up to something
08:46And I think I'm glad I don't know what it is
08:49How lucky can you get?
08:50Not only have I found some great guys to hang with but they trust me to pull off a stunt they've been trying to nail for years
08:56Doesn't get any better, right?
08:57How lucky can you get?
08:58Not only have I found some great guys to hang with but they trust me to pull off a stunt they've been trying to nail for years
09:12Doesn't get any better, right?
09:14So what did the doctor say?
09:15Oh he thinks nothing's broken but he wants daddy to go to the hospital for an x-ray just in case
09:20I feel pretty bad about the parents accident not that it was my fault
09:23Still if I can pull off this stunt he should get a laugh out of it and the day will turn out to be okay after all
09:27Oh
09:57Oh
10:27Hello
10:33Evening yellow sheep
10:34Fancy a new set of e's?
10:57All right, Seyfried, it's makeover time.
11:27Are you sure your father will be a cater to the reenactment tomorrow?
11:31Our families perform at that ceremony every year for 140 years, even if he was run over by a truck
11:37He would find a way to be there. Wow, that's some commitment. I see you've been hanging out with Eric and his friends. Yeah
11:44Can you believe it? They're a great bunch super friendly. That's interesting
11:49What do you mean interesting?
11:52Nothing just interesting
11:54If I didn't know better, I'd swear people were laughing at me. What's why would they do that? I don't know. Maybe I'm being paranoid
12:06What was that all about I don't know but something's going on I'm sure of it
12:11I don't believe this. Oh, hey check it out with a laugh, eh?
12:27Someone's going to pay for this Lily wait
12:29What's her problem? It's just a statue a statue of one of Lily's ancestors
12:36I'm sorry Baron Siegfried von Hasenberg. It was he saved the town from the Prussian invaders. Oh
12:43Really putting donkey's ears on him is the ultimate gesture of disrespect to their family, but it's just a joke
12:49It's not a big deal. Is it in a small town like this? It's a very big deal. They have family feuds going back for centuries
12:57This will create bad blood you can count on it
13:02Eric fellas, hey Ben great work man, you're a legend awesome guys. We made a terrible mistake
13:09That's not just any old secret. That's secret von Hasenberg. Yeah, we know what everyone in town knows who he is everyone except our Aussie mates today
13:18No, but Lily she's really upset perfect. That's even better than I hoped sorry
13:24Why what's perfect about that? She deserves it the whole von Hasenberg family deserves it. What are you talking about?
13:30They treat this town like they own it. They think they're better than us
13:34Well, this reminds them they're not. They're just a bunch of unimportant old aristocrats losers
13:40but
13:42He knew this was gonna happen. That's why you wanted to put the donkey's on us
13:47Who he didn't do it did we not me? I was at home me too. Just ask our parents
13:55Think I'm beginning to get what Sophie meant when she said these guys were interesting
13:59Hey
14:18Are you okay? We can leave if you want if I do that they'll think they've won. I'm a fun Hasenberg
14:23It'll take more than that to beat me. This is seriously awful. I've got to come clean and confess
14:29I'd hate to be in the shoes of whoever did this once Lily finds out their lives won't be worth living
14:34On second thoughts, it's best not to rush these things. Maybe I'll just wait for the right moments
14:43Von Hasenberg?
14:53Von Hasenberg?
14:55Hello?
14:59I can't even hold my sword properly
15:04I can't even hold my sword properly
15:05Strength in the face of mockery. It was Siegfried's creed and it should be ours too. We have to be there tradition demands it
15:10Please daddy, you know it's the right thing to do
15:11Please daddy, you know it's the right thing to do
15:12I can't even hold my sword properly
15:13Strength in the face of mockery. It was Siegfried's creed and it should be ours too. We have to be there tradition demands it
15:17Please daddy, you know it's the right thing to do
15:18I know I'm going to regret this. Thank you. And you won't regret it for a second. Come on. We have to sort out our costumes
15:24I know I'm going to regret this. Thank you. And you won't regret it for a second. Come on. We have to sort out our costumes
15:30I don't understand who would do a thing like this. They're gonna find out sooner or later
15:35Guess it might as well be sooner
15:37It was me guys and before you say anything. I know it was childish idiotic irresponsible and a dozen other adjectives
15:44I prefer you didn't mention then why did you do it? I just thought it would be a bit of fun
15:50Honestly, if I had any idea who Siegfried was
15:52I know I'm going to regret this
15:53I know I'm going to regret this
15:54Thank you, and you won't regret it for a second
15:56Come on. We have to sort out our costumes
15:58I don't understand who would do a thing like this
16:00They're gonna find out sooner or later
16:02Guess it might as well be sooner
16:03It was me guys
16:04And before you say anything
16:05Honestly if I had any idea who Siegfried was I wouldn't have gone near it
16:08It was Eric's idea wasn't it
16:10And his mates
16:11How did you know?
16:12Eric's father owns a factory next to the castle estate
16:15The Baron called him dumping rubbish on his land and complained to the police
16:18They've been feuding ever since
16:20So Eric set you out to embarrass the von Hasenbergs?
16:23It's worse than embarrassment
16:25It's real humiliation
16:27Looks like I've done pretty well then
16:29What am I gonna do?
16:31An apology might be a good place to start
16:35Please believe me
16:36If I had any idea that this was somehow connected with you guys
16:39I would have walked away from it completely
16:40I know it doesn't help much
16:42But I'm really really sorry
16:44And he feels like a total idiot
16:46And if you want me to go and not stay here anymore
16:50I'll understand
16:52I don't think we need to go that far Ben
16:55I accept your apology
16:57Just wait till I get my hands on that scumbag Eric
17:00Don't even think about it Lily
17:02That just makes us as bad as them
17:04But we can't just take this lying down
17:06If we don't find a way to stand up for ourselves
17:08Our reputation in this town will be ruined forever
17:10I really thought Eric and his mates were good guys
17:14How's Arda know he was such a snake?
17:16Forget that
17:17What we need to do now is sort this out
17:18It's deja vu
17:19What?
17:20Like last year's grand final
17:22We went in with this great game plan
17:23But we're down 6-0 at half time
17:25The coach walked away in disgust
17:27He said it was up to us to turn things around
17:29And did you?
17:30You bet
17:31We ditched the plan and started playing the same way as the other team
17:33But didn't you lose that game?
17:36Yeah
17:37Yeah 9-0
17:38But they only kicked three goals after half time
17:41Thanks Ben for being no help at all
17:44I'll be in my room thinking of something
17:46Let me know if you get any ideas
17:48I think we're done
17:55This is one day I can honestly say that I'm not looking forward to
18:00Don't worry daddy, we'll get through it
18:03Barron, Lily
18:05Ah Sam, come to wish us luck
18:07I've had an idea
18:09I don't know if you'll like it
18:10But it's the best I can come up with
18:18We've got five minutes, where is he?
18:21He'll be here
18:22If anyone can do it, Marcus can
18:24I got them
18:25Marcus you're amazing
18:26Where did you get them from?
18:27Is that short notice?
18:28What can I say?
18:29I have contacts
18:31Well
18:32We're all set to go
18:33Excellent
18:34You'd better get ready Marcus
18:35It's almost time
18:36Right
18:37We'll take care of these
18:38Good luck
18:39Thanks, we'll need it
18:40Barron
18:43Barron
18:44Herr Müller
18:45Lillie
18:46Eric
18:47I see Baron Siegfried is looking particularly elegant lately
18:51Is he?
18:52I have noticed
18:53I'm sure now the von Hasenbergs will get the reception they deserve
18:57Let's hope we all get what we deserve
18:59Now, please excuse us, I believe we're on
19:02Daddy?
19:11I'm having second thoughts, Lillie
19:13I don't think it's appropriate for someone of my status to do this
19:16You're right
19:17But it's entirely appropriate for someone of my status
19:20Ladies and gentlemen, let me begin by saying how delightful it is to see the recent adornments
19:35To our ancestor, Baron Siegfried
19:43Isn't it wonderful to see that at long last someone has finally managed to place donkey's ears on the old Baron's head
19:49And may I say that no one could be more delighted than us
19:56It prompts us to reveal for the first time an astonishing but little known aspect of Siegfried
20:02He would often taunt his enemies by calling them donkeys
20:06He'd then ride into battle imagining a pair of donkey's ears on the heads of his foe
20:11It was this that gave him the strength and courage to win every battle he fought
20:15And it's exactly how he said about saving our beautiful town of Hasendorf from the Prussian
20:24I never knew about this and you found this in the historical records
20:28Oh, Sam
20:30Who knows what went through Siegfried's mind Sophie?
20:32I don't even know what I'm thinking half the time
20:34Finally I'm pleased to announce that the donkey's ears was placed up there by our very own Australian cousin Ben Hazelton
20:43Ben Hazelton
20:49Siegfried would be so proud of him
20:52From now on let the whole town celebrate Freedom Day by wearing
20:56Donkeys ears
20:58Donkeys ears! Donkeys ears!
21:12Get your donkey ears here!
21:14Get your donkey ears!
21:15Get your donkey ears here!
21:17Like some ears guys?
21:18Reckon you look pretty good in them
21:19Can't see any bigger donkeys around here than you
21:20I never thought I'd say it but you're a genius how did you ever come up with a story like that?
21:23Remember your football story about turning things around?
21:25It started me thinking about how to turn an insult into a victory
21:29Sweet I saved the day and I didn't even know it I wonder what other abilities I have that I don't know about
21:35How honest do you want me to be?
21:36How honest do you want me to be?
21:37Oh yeah I can dream Connie
21:38In your case no just hand out the ears
21:41So while you might think I don't deserve it and you'd probably be right by and large things have turned out pretty satisfactorily
21:43However there's still a lot of things that I don't know about
21:44I don't know how to turn an insult into a victory
21:45Sweet I saved the day and I didn't even know it
21:46I wonder what other abilities I have that I don't know about
21:48How honest do you want me to be?
21:50Oh yeah I can dream Connie
21:52In your case no just hand out the ears
21:54So while you might think I don't deserve it and you'd probably be right by and large things have turned out pretty satisfactorily
22:09However there's still one last thing that needs some serious attention
22:13I trust this is to your ladyship's liking
22:16It is indeed
22:18Here they come
22:20Now!
22:34Woah!
22:35Woah!
22:36Woah!
22:37Woah!
22:38Woah!
22:39Woah!
22:40Woah!
22:41Woah!
22:42Woah!
22:43Woah!
22:44Oh!
22:45Woah!
22:46You have not the last of this
22:47Good!
22:48There's plenty more flower bombs where they came from!
22:50That was amazing!
22:51Awesome!
22:52It's a great Aussie tradition
22:55It's also silly immature childish and would shame even a six year old
22:59six-year-old then you are absolutely right as usual but it was also fun so
23:07there you go I found some mates and I lost some mates but the good thing is I've
23:11still got these mates I think I definitely got onto the winning team
23:15there
23:29you
