Synopsis
Mr. Müller is not satisfied with his new work at the Goethe-Gesamtschule. Having to get up early and correcting exams annoys him. Director Gerster wants to improve the image of the school because she wants to be a symbol of the new public campaign. To achieve this, she wants to take away the partnership from the Schiller gymnasium with a school in Thailand. So Mr. Müller, Ms. Schnabelstedt and the 10/B class must go on a school trip to Thailand to a remote village.
