Originally, it focused on the character Anna Polauke -- a shy and lonely woman -- who began a job in the advertising agency "Broda & Broda", where she met her first love, Jonas Broda. As time went on, the focus was given to one of Anna's cousins, Mia Maschke who began work in the same company as a cleaning woman.

The show is notable for having many montages (such as one while calculating debts) as well as eccentric, [[Large Ham]] characters.

----

* [[Acting Unnatural]]: What Anna seems like sometimes.

* [[Adorkable]]: Kai, Nina and Enrique.

* [[Adult Fear]]: Richard Darcys breakdown after his disappearance. He slowly looses grip on reality and thinks his adult daughter Annet is still a nine year old girl that has got her birthday in a few days and wants to have a pony t-shirt. He also mistakes a random bum for a golf pal and everything culminates when he´s got a heartattack in his sons office.

* [[The Casanova]]: Mr. David Darcy, Luca Benzoni and Jonas Broda. Kai likes to think of himself as this.

* [[Catch Phrase]]: The word ''Heldenhaft! (Heroically!)'' is uttered suspiciously often.

* [[Celebrity Paradox]]: Ole Tillmann plays talkshow host Michael Jung who doesn't exist in our universe and the german comedian Zack is a marriage registrar. Averted with several people who play themselves (including Oliver Pocher, Karl Lagerfeld and The Black Pony).

* [[Chekhov's Gun]]: Kai Kosmar's suit provides blackmail material for any given situation.

** Bruno. ''He is just the boss.''

** Steve Welder. After he fled from prison for him being responsible for Jonas´ death he got crazy and started stalking Carla and Mr. Darcy to get some money for his taking all the flak.

'''Steve:''' "Wooohooooooohooooooo." }}

** Kai does this on purpose whenever he tries to intimidate people. Most noteable: He drank a glass of milk with ridicolous gratification and requested soft sugar for it shortly before he threatened Nina to report her to the police for pushing Luca down some stairs (unwillingly). When she went away he complimented the restaurant manager for the quality of the single glass of milk.

* [[Double Standard]]: Kai stalks several people and is evil because of it, but noone wants to mention that Jojo Maschke did the exact same thing with Lily.

* [[Dynamic Entry]]: Lucas first scene: He got flown in by a red chopper whith Korn soundtrack in the background.

* [[Empty Promise]]: Kai does this with Carla.

* [[Establishing Character Moment]]: Kai's rape attempts.

* [[Evil Tastes Good]]: Kai is constantly eating or drinking something.

* [[Evil Versus Evil]]: Darcy and Carla against Steve, the mad Austrian.

** It's about Anna and finding her true love.

** Averted when another character takes over and Annas only credits is the opening.

* [[Ho Yay]]: Luca's introduction, where he met Kai while "Word Up" by Korn is played.

* [[Humiliation Conga]]: Kais last few plans are utter disasters. He installs spy cams in the cloth storage hoping to catch Nina and Luca again and instead his sister bangs a model. He tries to get on better terms with Bruno and he is demoted to decorate the christmas tree.

* [[Inner Monologue Conversation]]: Every female lead gets them.

* [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]]: Enrique to Mia and Anna.

Heinrich's plan was to get to heaven with Jonas but he was never seen again after a random scene and when Jonas left on screen it apparently was without him.

* [[Likes Older Women]]: Mr. Darcy at first, but he recovered.

* [[Limited Social Circle]]: Everyone on the show. Averted when the main characters greet random extras whom they are never shown to have had any contact with.

* [[Local Hangout]]: The Ego Bar.

* [[Man Hug]]: Kai and Luca, after Luca arrived by helicopter where Kai was waiting with a limo for him.

* [[My Sister Is Off-Limits]]: So averted with Kai. His sister Olivia is engaged with his friend Luca and Kai seems to approve of this but weirdly has nothing against Luca cheating on her with other women at the same time.
