However, this is not due to Jakob, who still has his old job as a toy seller and lives in his little room, but rather to a misunderstanding. Marie thinks he's a successful photographer who lives in a stylishly furnished loft. In the rush of happiness, Jakob keeps to himself that the dream apartment and photos belong to his traveller's neighbor, for whom Jakob only waters the flowers.
