*Eike is talking to the weird stranger in a coat*

Stranger: Have you seen a woman wearing a coat?

Eike: No...

Stranger: Never mind... do you want to see my stuff?

*points to his suitcase*

Eike (afraid): Er... I'd rather...

Stranger (smiling): I have everything you want...

Eike: Thanks, but I like to care about my health... (proud) Drugs are bad!

Stranger: What?

*Eike looks around*

Eike (embarrassed): Excuse me?

Stranger: I am offering you false Rolex, Cartier, and almost every deluxe watch you can think of...

Eike (suddenly interested): Did you say false watches? You mean cheap watches?

*Eike is about to tell Margarete she could be an ancestor of Eike*

Eike: Margarete...

Margarete: Yes?

Eike: I think you could be my ancestor...

Margarete (sighs, looks at the ceiling): Yes, Eike.

Eike (surprised): I am serious, Margarete, I...

Margarete (packing some things): Of course, of course, Eike, I believe your time-travelling bull... stories too.

Eike:...

*Margarete leaves*

*Eike is with Eckart after having survived, thanks to the rope*

Eike (furious): You tried to kill me??

Eckart (calm): Yes.

*Eike waits, but there is no response*

Eike: Mr. Eckart, wasn't someone blackmailing you or something... so that you agreed to kill me?

Eckart: No.

Eike (after a pause): You mean you were trying to kill me on your own?

Eckart: That's it.

Eike (surprised): You wanted to kill ME?

Eckart: Yeah.

Eike (about to cry, with manga-style tears in his eyes): But... why?

Eckart: Well, you went to my museum everytime, never paying the ticket; you borrowed my books never giving them back; every time I tried to say this to you you started with that "I-didn't-ever-meet-my-parents" stuff... You have become very annoying, Eike.

*Eike cries*

Eike: Okay, then!! Tell me what do I have to do!

Eckart: Pay me, of course.

Eike (stops crying): ...

*In Ending A, Homunculus is about to bring dr. Wagner to life again*

Eike: So you are gonna bring him from the dead?

Homunculus: Yes.

Eike: Really?

Homunculus: Hum... Yes.

*Homunculus whispers, there is a lot of smoke and dr. Wagner appears on the street*

Eike: This is dr. Wagner?

Homunculus: The very same.

Eike: Doesn't he look a little... awkward?

Homunculus (looking at another place): What do you mean?

*Eike looks at dr. Wagner more closely*

Eike: Yes... he looks...

*Eike touches dr. Wagner's shoulder with one finger*

*dr. Wagner's head falls to the ground*

Eike: Homunculus... you sure this is the real dr. Wagner?

*Homunculus vanishes*

*Eike is talking to Dana in the square*

Dana: Is this stone yours?

Eike: No, it's not mine.

Dana: And this lighter?

Eike: This IS mine, thank you.

Dana: I feel good talking to you... Sometimes I-

Eike (interrupting Dana, speaking loud) HEY! This is NOT my lighter! Mine is a silver lighter, this is a regular cheap lighter!

Dana: No, that IS your lighter.

Eike: No way! Mine is 10 times more valuable!

Dana: Uh, my boss is calling me!

Eike: No he's not!

*Dana runs away*

*Eike is in the bakery*

Baker: Do you want a chocolate? We called them "Margarete"

Eike: Of course.

*Eike eats a chocolate*

*Eike starts to feel a great pain and falls to the floor*

Eike (screaming): What?! It was poisoned?!

Baker (serious): Well, al the town is trying to kill you, so I might as well give it a try... Everyone seems to have fun with it...

*Eike dies*

*Eike leaves the museum*

*A Chinese vase falls and hits Eike on the head*

Eike (falling to he ground): OUCH!

*Eike stands up*

Eike: Damn... that hurts...

*A voice is heard from the first floor*

Voice: Damn! Didn't work!

*A chair falls from the window and hits Eike in the back*

Eike (falling to the ground again): Duh!!

*Eike stands up again*

Voice: Sheesh...

*An office table falls over Eike*

*Eike slowly pushes the table and stands up with pain*

Eike: Don't...worry... (with pain, as a marble sculpture hits the ground two feet away) I think I broke my leg... But I'm all right!

*Eike limps away, while weird noises are heard from the first floor*

*A giant piano falls over Eike*

*The only visible part of his body, a hand, doesn't move*

Voice: Thanks God I won't have to use the wardrobe...

*Eike is in the XVIth century, talking to the guy guarding the entrance to Lord Manor's house*

Eike: Could you let me in, please?

Guy: Hmm, maybe... don't you have anything to trade?

*Eike gives the Karl Franssen postcard to the guy*

Guy: Okay, come on inside.

*Eike tries to enter, but the door is closed*

Eike: Aren't you going to open this?

Guy: Ah, but you will have to trade something more for that...

Eike: I don't have anything else! All the other things I have are going to be necessary later!

Guy: I liked that fire machine of yours...

*Eike is talking with Dana*

Dana: Is this red stone yours?

Eike: ...no, I'm sorry.

Dana: And this lighter?

Eike: That IS mine, thank you.

Dana: And this diary?

Eike (surprised): Yes!

Dana (opening it): It looks interesting... "I have to gather people at the square"... "Today I met the waitress..."

*When he hears that, Eike blushes and tries to grab the notebook*

Dana (escaping from Eike and reading aloud): "She is very cute, and warm"... Oooh! So you think this about me, huh?

Eike (running after Dana): Eh! That's not you! It's... another blonde waitress!

*Eike is inside the Bar Zum Ei, when it is on fire*

Eike: Duh...

*Eike remembers*

Eike: Wait! Maybe the destiny won't get me after all! I still have some cash...

*Eike takes his cell phone and dials the emergency number*

Recorded Voice of a woman (speaking very slow): Good morning. This is the emergency number. If you are being stolen, press 1.

*long pause; Eike waits puzzled*

Recorded Voice: If you are being assassinated, press 2.

*long pause*

Eike: I might as well try that one later...

Recorded Voice: If you are the witness of a murder, press 3.

*long pause; the cell phone of Eike does a loud beep*

Eike: Damn, I'm running out of money...

Recorded Voice: If you are inside a burning building, press 4.

*Eike presses the 4 button quickly*

Recorded Voice (still speaking very slow; as Eike's phone does another beep): You have chosen "I am inside a burning building". If you are at a burning hotel, press 1.

*long pause; the phone starts beeping unstoppably*

Recorded Voice: If you are at a burning bar, press 2.

*Eike presses 2 hysterically*

*The beeping ends*

Recorded Voice of another woman: You ran out of money. You can use a credit card or...

*Eike puts the phone on his pocket as half of the ceiling falls*

Eike (frightened): I KNEW I shouldn't have spent an hour chatting with my friends...

*Eike is in dr. Wagner's lab*

Eike: I got the red stone you asked me... could it be this one?

Dr. Wagner: The Philosopher's Stone! Please! Give it to me!

*Eike gives the stone to dr. Wagner*

Dr. Wagner (hugging Eike): Thank you very much!

*Dr. Wagner starts whistling a symphony as he turns to continue with his experiments*

*Eike starts leaving*

Eike: Now, ten days to the future...

*Eike checks his pockets*

Eike: Wait... My... Digipad? Where's my Digipad?

*Eike turns and looks to dr. Wagner*

Eike: ...dr. Wagner? Have you taken my Digipad?

Dr. Wagner: What? I don't know what you are talking about...

Eike (surprised): I see it on your table! And my lighter! And my wallet! And my phone!

*A tense silence*

Eike: Don't know why, but I feel you are very similar to me...

Dr. Wagner: Yes, you remind me of myself when I was young... specially when you tried to steal a coin of mine...

*both meditate*

*Eike is on top of the museum's tower*

Eike (ties the rope): Okay... It's ready.

*When the time comes, Eike notices a penny on the floor*

Eike (crouching to take it): I'm lucky today! I might be trying to avoid my own death by trusting an androgynous stranger, but still I've found a penny!

*Eike hears footsteps and a long shriek*

Eike (standing up): What the...

*Eike looks over the railing and sees mr. Eckart's body on the ground*

Eike: ...and I will have to travel back in time to save him, or will he have his own Homunculus?

*Eike takes his penny and leaves*

·The next one is based on an idea that Leknaat ([email protected])sent me·

*Eike appears in the Limb, after dying*

Homunculus (angry): For Heaven's sake! This is the 14th time you die? How many times do I have to tell you? Read my lips: G-r-a-b  t-h-e  r-o-p-e!!

Eike: I know I have to do that... but I don't want to do that right now...

Homunculus (puzzled): What?? Why?

Eike (closing his eyes): I like the vibrations of the Digipad in my pocket...

Homunculus: !!?? ...get a girlfriend!
