After being separated from her husband, Bettina is questioned about her connections to West Berlin.

Jan, now an accountant, receives a letter from Bettina regarding the eight months she spent in prison in 1985.

Although Bettina has yet to hear back from her former interrogator, her co-worker encourages her to persevere.

Jan's boss won't accept Bettina's vague account of what happened, and Jan has to do the interrogation over again.

Jan tries to make Bettina nervous by talking about her husband's affair, but doesn't get the reaction he hoped for.

Bettina is questioned by Jan's superior, who is not particularly patient, and learns that Jan is going away on vacation.

Jan's wife doesn't want him to meet Bettina again.

Jan comes back from vacation and explains that his part of the investigation is almost over, but also expresses some feelings for Bettina.

In their last meeting, Bettina and Jan both reveal their feelings for each other. In the present, they see each other for the first time in many years.

Bettina finds that she still has feelings for Jan after so many years.
