“For us, it’s just the beginning-“ Too Hot to Handle: Germany stars Laurenz and Brenda reflect on their connection

Too Hot to Handle: Germany season 2 premiered exclusively on Netflix on February 18, 2025. For this season, single contestants reside in a retreat away from the outside world to focus on finding their one true love. However, the one condition they have to follow is to abide by an AI robot, Lana's rules. Additionally, Lana wants cast members to find a true connection by emotionally connecting rather than being physically intimate.

The prize fund money is reduced each time a contestant breaks a rule. One of the couples this season, Laurenz and Brenda, opened up about how their connection evolved in the retreat. As the season was about to reach a conclusion, towards the end of episode 8, Brenda stated that for her and Laurenz, it was just the beginning. She said:

"This is the end of the retreat, but for us, it's just the beginning."

The Too Hot to Handle: Germany cast members revealed what they were expecting from their future as they could see being in a long-term commitment in the outside world. The couple expressed their true feelings for each other on the last date Lana planned for them.

Too Hot to Handle: Germany season 2 episode 8, "Praying Is the Only Thing Left," was released exclusively on Netflix. The episode synopsis reads as the following:

"After Lana organizes final dates and an emotional rebirth workshop for the contestants, this season's cash prize is awarded."
