Move the Remaining Computers to Sanchez’s Home

Move the Remaining Computers to Sanchez’s Home begins as a response to a discovery inside Julius’s family home and becomes a hurried attempt to keep the remaining stolen equipment out of sight. The plan offers temporary relief, not a solution: the friends have no secure buyer, the police are investigating the school burglary, and moving the computers only carries the danger from one bedroom to another.

Discovery and mounting pressure

While the friends are away, Julius’s brother goes into his room to retrieve something and finds the remaining computers and other equipment. Julius later recounts that his brother became furious, demanding to know what he was doing and warning that he would be in serious trouble if the police came to the apartment. Julius argues with him for about half an hour, then claims that the computers are being stored for a friend who will collect them that day. His brother believes this explanation, but the discovery leaves Julius needing to get the equipment out quickly.

The risk is not merely hypothetical. At school, the police have told students that computers and monitors worth several thousand euros were stolen over the weekend. Neighbors reportedly saw three male suspects in black hooded jackets moving the goods in a shopping cart toward U-Bahnhof Zwickauer Damm; shots were also heard nearby, though the police do not know whether the gunfire was connected to the burglary. The investigation has begun, and officers have asked for information. Lukas has already heard the theft described publicly and worries that the police will eventually trace the computers to their homes. That pressure shadows every practical decision the group makes about where to put them.

A storage plan, not a sale

The friends consider what to do with the equipment. Selling it again seems unlikely: the buyer they approached the previous day had repeatedly told them not to return. Lukas also weighs abandoning the computers in a canal. In his calculation, each of them has already made about 200 euros, and getting rid of the remaining evidence might be preferable to risking further trouble. But that option does not persuade Julius or Sanchez, who want to continue trying to sell the goods.

Sanchez proposes an intermediate step: move everything to his room. He says his mother rarely goes in there and will be away from four in the afternoon until late at night, giving them a window to bring the computers over. At first he imagines carrying the equipment in a sports bag over several trips, then remembers that he has large moving boxes at home. He estimates that one box can hold two computers and their monitors, reducing the number of journeys. His room is offered as a hiding place and a staging point, not as a way to resolve the problem of finding a buyer.

Julius agrees immediately, discarding the last stub of the joint they have been smoking. Lukas, by contrast, questions why they are determined to push on after having escaped trouble so far. The disagreement exposes the different meanings they attach to the remaining computers: to Julius and Sanchez, they are still goods that might be sold; to Lukas, they are an accumulating liability. He points out that they do not know who will buy the rest and imagines the police eventually searching their homes. Their first sale—three computers sold after only about three hours of trying—has made Julius more confident that a better-organized effort will work. He predicts that the rest can be sold by the weekend and that the police will not act quickly enough to stop them. Lukas remains unconvinced.

Packing and setting out

Sanchez demonstrates how to fold one of Julius’s moving boxes, compressing its sides and bottom with a few practiced movements. Julius places two computers inside and checks whether the box will still close, then takes two monitors as well. He says his own box is ready to go. Lukas has packed his box too, but finds it extraordinarily heavy when he lifts it; carrying it all the way to Sanchez’s home seems impossible. As evening approaches, he raises the possibility of taking a bus rather than walking with the load.

The departure is organized around a specific connection. Lukas checks his phone and reads the time as 21:53; the group calculates that they can catch the bus at 21:59 if they leave immediately. Sanchez is already standing at Julius’s bedroom door with his box in his arms when Lukas nods. Sanchez calls for them to go, then asks whether Julius still has any of the Haze from earlier or can take more from his brother. Julius pats his pocket and confirms that he has some. With the computers boxed and the bus about to leave, the group sets off.

An unfinished transfer

The scene records the preparation and departure, not a confirmed delivery to Sanchez’s home. Its final image is therefore one of movement under pressure: Sanchez waits with a box, Julius has his, and Lukas has a load he has already found difficult to lift. Their practical ingenuity—using moving cartons, choosing a time when Sanchez’s mother will be away, and checking the bus schedule—cannot make the underlying danger disappear. The stolen equipment is still theirs to conceal and sell, the police investigation remains active, and Lukas’s objections have not changed the others’ decision to continue. The proposed move shifts the immediate problem out of Julius’s room, but leaves the larger predicament intact.
