GAS TONI 1, 23.1.2025

What has happened so far...

Episode 1 : Social funds
Because customers ignore the reminders, outstanding money has to be collected. Sabine wants to do this together with Martin, who has to put on the “collection costume” of old Gas Toni and the hours needed for collection are to be counted as double working time.
Meanwhile, on Esther's advice, Astrid takes her husband to the Balaton for rehab - she takes the money from the company account “because that's the way it's always been”.
Martin's money collection efforts don't work, but Mike, the Slovenian warehouse worker, gives Martin a gun to demand the money from the customers - but as a former community service worker, this solution is not feasible for Martin either.
Strengthened by the rehab, Astrid collects the debt - but the money has to go into the black money box because it can't be accounted for.

Episode 2: Envy
Martin is headhunted by the owner of the neighboring company - he has long been looking enviously at the building opposite during his smoke break and wishing he was there. The competitor's argument is understandable: there are simply no such artistically talented graphic designers in his party.
Sabine and Astrid are very disappointed in him - Sabine even demands the return of the 12 condoms she has bought over the years to spend time with Martin. Astrid discovers a photo in a photo album that suggests a closer relationship between Esther and the old gas Toni - Esther tries to make the photo disappear. Norwegian warehouse worker Mike reports a hug he received in the office to the “sexual assault” hotline.
After a few days, Martin returns to Gas Toni remorseful - his time at the neighboring company was hell - the only good thing was the food....
