During a clothing exchange evening for women in top positions, Patty hears that she has been fired. She cannot understand why Eva and Wiebe voluntarily stop working after a time management course.
A local TV crew makes a report about the new spiritual center in Hertenkamp. According to Eva, Wiebe's ego is growing by all that attention. She hopes that he will learn something from the course 'Nature Has No Self of Its Own'.
His fortieth birthday is a moment for Max to take stock. That makes him sad. His neighbor's kid Toto also has a birthday. Because his parents are taking a course in 'Reducing Consumption', he does not expect much from his gift.
Patty's very elderly and ill mother has moved into Hertenkamp. Grace is about to break through in her career, but Patty asked her to take care of her mother. She is conflicted and the laughter therapy in the garage does not make things any easier for her.
Patty is abroad while her mother dies. Her neighbor Eva lovingly takes care of the funeral. She wants to involve the whole of Hertenkamp in this special event, but Wiebe is more interested in the massage course in the garage.
The residents of Hertenkamp are literally and figuratively cleaning up. The broom goes through Patty and Grace's house. In the garage, the past is dealt with during a regression course. And Eva goes into retreat. Finally, there is only one conclusion: everything has to change.
The cast & crew of Hertenkamp made the single and clip 'A border is just a line' in 1999 and donated part of the proceeds to the Hakuna Malalahuizen in Den Bosch.
