De kotmadam - Season 15 (2005)

The kids decide to party all night, except nerdy Filip, who deliberately monopolizes the bathroom for an hour, so Stef locks him in all night. Filip threatens with a lawsuit for giving him claustrophobia, which gets others waiting on him. Jef scolds Jeanne an viciously incurable meddler for telling his supervisor Frans he's interested in a promotion, so she claims she won't bother at all, he vows to prove she can't stop. Odilon has acquired a bunny, Paula, which Jef expects her to be nosy about, but she misunderstands it's a person. Jef even pretends he'll resign, but...

Jef just raided the moved-out neighbors' abandoned wine cellar, but must cede bottles to hush student witnesses. Jeanne is initially pleased to hear a lady is starting a new business next door, but pretends the place is already taken -by a non-existent dentist- when she learns it's to be an erotica shop, and even decides to buy it herself and convert it into extra student rooms, to Jef's horror, while Odilon even looks forward to all the work. Jef pretends to applaud the 'pension plan' but promised his mate Sander an expensive bottle to make a terrifyingly expensive ...

It's pruning time, so Jef needs an excuse to dodge the hard work; when Stef brags how he 'negotiates grades' with a professor whose mistress is a friend of his, Jef takes his cue and blackmails colleague Joris Vandam, who gives their foreman Frans' wife Ria "yoga lessons". When Mimi boasts about the relaxing effect of yoga, Jeanne insists to take lessons too. It's exam time, so Filip is even more picky about every preparation for his brilliant exams, such as ironing, but freaks when his rabbit's foot goes missing, even puts a 'bomb' under Arnold's bed...

When Jef is to play the billiards club's final against the far stringer Jos, he hopes to win by forfeit by making his wife Mimi (his own Jeanne's gossip mate) believe her Jos is unfaithful, but things don't go according to his plan.

After the weekend Saskia shows pictures of her new measly rich husband and a hunky lover, Bobbie- in a play that is, yet enough to make Arnold jealous. Jeanne gets a client from her distant past, Bernadette, who stole her best friend in class when they were six, André, now a lawyer. To keep up, Jeanne pretends Jef is her gardener and passes Bobbie's picture for her absent husband, the start of another comedy of errors, especially as Bobbie is coming to rehears for the play. Now Lies won't sleep with Stef, allegedly because he snores, Filip is hell-bent to prove the ...

Jef charges Flor, the anglers club president, a small fortune for algae-treatment allegedly by the royal ponds' supplier, but actually sends Odilon to nick some as well as lawn treatment he also nicked from the city greens department where he works, but they got mixed-up, which causes the fish in the club's pond to die, and getting rid of them isn't safe... When Mimi boasts she just can't say no when asked again as bride's maid and godmother, Jeanne pretends to be asked for Stef and Lies' wedding, although neither of the 'happy couple' knows where that 'news' comes ...

While Jef is away on a botanical garden visit in Kent with the city greens department, Mimi helps Odilon hang new wallpaper. She's shocked to hear Jeanne laugh with slightly naughty junior customer Vic's innocent 'dirty' word pun joke, but it gets much worse when Filip asks Saskia, who only agrees because she needs 50 Euro, to help him scare off Inge, the daughter of his hometown Westvleteren's notary which his mother always dreamed of coupling him with, by pretending to be his lover, and when that doesn't do the trick to be pregnant. Soon various futilities are ...

Odilon brings along ex-con Gilbert, who expresses an interest in an abstract heirloom painting made for Jeanne's pa, which expert Janssens estimates at 12,000 Euros. Jef orders a fake trough Filip, who demands 35%. Saskia reacts rudely and even with vandalism at Arnold's romantic gestures, so Stef suggests a remarkable cure, sort of a cruel treat.

Arnold wants to give up his studies and join the army, or even the Foreign Legion. Stef wants to save his future and enlists Filip's help to discourage him by a taste of grueling boot-camp, but Arnold's superior condition and marksmanship amaze them. Jeff promises bait-shop owner Modest he can get Jeanne to model for him as mermaid, for a life-long discount. His plan to create jealousy with Mimi works, but Odilon's big mouth messes up here exit, so an audition becomes inevitable.

After Mimi complains about vandals, Jeane boast her kids are almost angelic. As even Filip wants a cooler image, he devises a bet who can steal the most daring public property. Jeanne ends up finding all their contraband. Odilon is 'secretly' testing a convict-ankle-device. Jeff has taken in some cacti which the owner dumped after his wife was stung and poisoned, but his assurance that's nonsense soon seems contradicted by painful practice.
