Falling in love in the past isn’t a particularly good idea. At least, that’s what Gwendolyn Shepherd (Maria Ehrich), an involuntary time-traveler, thinks. After all, she and Gideon (Jannis Niewöhner) have very different problems. For example, saving the world. Or learning to dance the minuet. And neither of these is really that simple! So when Gideon starts acting all strange, Gwendolyn realises that she’s got to get her hormones in check right away. It’s good that she knows she has important advisers she can turn to: her best friend Leslie (Jennifer Lotsi), the little water gargoyle Xemerius (voice: Rufus Beck), the school ghost James (Kostja Ullmann) and her grandfather as a young man (Bastian Trost) who gives her some important advice in the past. But Gideon and Gwendolyn’s love is put to the utmost test when they have to defend themselves against a dangerous alliance and fall into the clutches of the Duke of St. Germain (Peter Simonischek).
