What happens in Free Fall from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 15 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 4-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

Marc Borgmann is a young police officer-in-training enrolled in a specialized course for the riot control unit. He struggles to keep up with his peers at the academy, particularly in the physical drills, and he clashes with his roommate, Kay Engel, during a tense training exercise. Their initial hostility gives way to a fragile uneasy truce after Marc apologizes for his aggression, and the two gradually become friends. On one of their regular jogging sessions, Kay kisses Marc after they share a marijuana cigarette, and although Kay insists it was a joke, the moment marks the start of a complicated, intimate bond. During another run, the two share a kiss again, and Kay even gives Marc a handjob, intensifying the pull between them.
