Malou wollte ihr den Stall zeigen und auch noch einen Nebenraum, der Laura bis jetzt unzugänglich war. Aber wie so oft im Leben entwickelten sich die Dinge völlig anders als geplant. Die Pferde müssen dringend bewegt werden. Also reiten die beiden Frauen zum See - durch den Wald und begegnen dort dem Knecht vom Gutsbesitzer, ein komplett Trieb gesteuerter geiler Mann, der allerdings ziemlich genau weiß, was er tut.

Laura hat endlich einen freien Tag, aber dieser verläuft völlig anders, als sie es sich dachte. Zuerst erreicht sie ein Anruf ihrer Freundin, der sich dann von Heulen und Schluchzen in die genialste Sex Geschichte wandelt. Der Schornsteinfeger, der anstatt alt und gruselig ist, steht in Form eines unerfahrenen mutigen, Teenies vor der Tür, und fordert auf eine bizarre Weise sein "erstes Mal" ein.

Eigentlich wollte Laura nun heute endlich ihre Autoreifen wechseln. Aber mal wieder kommt es anders als erwartet. Torsten entschuldigt sein "Benehmen" beim letzten Werkstattbesuch und lädt sie auf ein Gläschen Schampus bei sich zu Hause ein. In diesem gigantischen Anwesen leben offensichtlich außer Torsten noch Jens, Lutz, Malou und ein absolut außergewöhnlicher Afrikaner!

Schon beim Erwachen am Sonntag früh hat sie dieses erregende Kribbeln im Bauch. Schnell springt sie unter ihre Dusche, schmeißt sich ihr kürzestes Kleid und fährt gespannt zu Torsten zum Brunch. Heute wird sie erleben, was Brunch und Intimrasur miteinander zu tun haben, was man außer Frühstücken noch so alles auf einer großen Tischplatte tun kann, dass Salatöl nicht nur für Salat gut ist und dass Hängematten nicht nur zum Relaxen taugen.

Lauras letzter Urlaubstag neigt sich dem Ende. Das Geräusch einer ankommenden Mail schreckt sie aus ihren Gedanken. Eine Mail von Marie, die es in sich hat. Nach dem Lesen dieser Zeilen, ist Laura nicht mehr in der Lage zu schlafen. Sie erfährt haarklein von einem Erlebnis.

Nach vielen anstrengenden und auch aufregenden Wochen schafft es Laura nun endlich ihren lang ersehnten Urlaub zu realisieren. Was würde sich da besser eignen, als die kleine Holzhütte am See - tief zwischen hohen Felsen und eigentlich so abgelegen, dass keine Menschen vorbei kommen können. Und doch erlebt Laura dort Dinge, die sie weder geplant noch erwartet hatte.

Laura muss dringend ihre Reifen am Auto wechseln. Grundsätzlich sind Autowerkstätten zum Reparieren von Autos gedacht. "Grundsätzlich" heißt aber nicht, dass das immer so sein muss. Laura erlebt an diesem Tag, wozu Hebebühnen, Werkzeuge, geschickte Automechaniker und Reifendruckmesser auch sonst noch taugen können.
