Woman: So, what are we going to do tomorrow evening? Watching DSDS.
Man 1: Yes, of course!
Man 2: Yes, I know.
Woman: That’s when the candidates may somehow prove themselves for the live shows once more [for] the last time because the Recall definitely ends tomorrow evening. After that it’s the live shows. And of course the remaining 20 [candidates] are totally shattered. Sure. Everything’s on the line.
Man 1: Yes, shattered. Especially so because Dieter Bohlen quickly changed the rules yet again. [On how] to get to the next round. And Birte Berg is telling you what those rules are exactly.
Man 2: Or else it wouldn’t be exciting.
Woman: Yes, yes.
Dieter: Usually it’s always been the judging panel who determined the Top 15. This time it’ll be different. We’ve got an alteration which is that only 10 people will get to the first live show.
Voice-over: Dismay amongst the candidates. However, as if that wouldn’t be enough, Dieter’s got even more alterations.
Dieter: The judging panel determines 8 candidates where we were certain: „They’ve got to be in the theme shows.” Then the judging panel will also determine 6 candidates who were so terrible that all of us just agreed: ”They’re not going [through] to the theme shows.“ What’s happening with the remaining 6? The audience will decide in their case. There will be 2 [of them] who will also get to the theme shows so that we’ll have 10 [candidates].
Voice-over: That means, 8 candidates will qualify for the theme shows straight away, 6 will be sent home and the remaining 6 can hope. The audience will vote 2 of them into the theme shows via telephone. So 20 will be 10. [It’s a] total nightmare for the candidates and so they’re not only excelling with talent anymore.
Jennifer: But he’s already getting awesome comments. So then why does he have to…
Nora: Jennifer: … walk up and make other people feel insecure on top of this?
Nora: That’s the a**hole principle. I hate things like that. I don’t understand things like that.
Voice-over: It’s about him: Judges‘ favourite Maurice Glover. But what had happened?
Jennifer: I sat in my room and he walks in and says: “And? How are things working out with your lyrics?“ And I totally had puffy eyes from crying because I knew I…
Nora: Everybody knew that you […] the [lyrics].
Jennifer: The lyrics just didn’t want to stick.
Nora: I know.
Jennifer: And then he also says: “Remember, that’s the song that Ricardo failed with 2 years ago.“ [He] turns around and walks away.
Voice-over: Maurice apparently doesn’t know anything about that. According to his own statement he just wanted to help.
Maurice: If one takes a realistic look at it, I was one of the candidates who would’ve needed it the least to make anybody feel insecure because I was among those who received the best comments. And then the bad thing is that it’s me who has those things said about him. Me, the one who actually also worked his a** off for others.
Voice-over: Highly praised by the judging panel, hated by Jennifer and Nora. Maurice isn’t in an easy position at the moment. However, he doesn’t let it show during his performance. The competition is getting tougher. Only 20 are left from more than 32,000 candidates. It’s also been a long way for the judging panel. They’ve had to send thousands of singers home.
Bill:I hate that! I hate that!
Tom: Yes, I also find that awful, meaning…
Bill: Meaning…
Tom: Because, because after all it’s also always so… I mean, in, in… After all there’s also the case where we have to give bad news to someone. And for instance, that’s even though Bill and I were also the ones who had said we’d like to take that one through for one more round. And then eventually [so close to the end] you just have to tell that someone: “Nope, you’ve got to go home now.” That‘s quite tough.
Voice-over: Some of them will still get to hear this. It matters to the last 20 [candidates] more than ever now.
Woman: Well, and the 6 candidates that are going to be fighting for the last 2 spots in the live shows will be our guests on here next week and will introduce themselves from this seat. It’ll start on Monday already.
Man: And of course we’ll see DSDS even before that. Here on RTL at 8.15pm tomorrow evening.
Woman: We’ll be broadcasting 6 days next week? [One day each] for the 6 candidates
