Amy Schumer’s in Berlin this week to promote her movie _Trainwreck_, which, it should be noted immediately, is called _Dating Queen_ in Germany. Schumer appeared on a red carpet Tuesday with director Judd Apatow and co-star Vanessa Bayer to promote the film, and naturally, some shenanigans went down.

Bayer saw an opportunity to recreate Schumer’s [legendary red carpet appearance](http://time.com/3830669/time-100-gala-amy-schumer-kim-kanye/) at the Time 100 gala back in April, where she pranked Kim Kardashian and Kanye West by dramatically falling at their feet. (“I think falling is the funniest thing, so I just took a dive in front of them and pretended like I fell,” Schumer [later explained](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inBh08SJhCY). “I’m doing God’s work.”)

In Bayer’s reenactment, she’s clearly representing Schumer, and Judd Apatow, staring off into the distance, appears to be Kanye. Schumer, of course, is pulling off her best Kim.

Be sure to relive Schumer’s original red carpet tumble [here](http://time.com/3830669/time-100-gala-amy-schumer-kim-kanye/).

Girls, your mother and I are getting divorced. Monogamy isn't realistic. Monogamy isn't realistic. Again. Monogamy isn't realistic. I didn't understand that word at that time [ NOISE ], but now I know exactly what he is talking about. Saturday, I would love if you were my date. I can't do that, because like, you and I won't ever see each other again. [ MUSIC ] Oh. Morning. Ho, ho Amy, what happened did church let out early? Ooh I like Toms sweater. Does he teach computer in a church basement? Don't get all threatened just because you don't understand the concept of marriage? You dress him like that so nobody else wants to have sex with him?

That's cool. Hey! [ MUSIC ] I'm just a modern chick who does what she wants. Last week, it was this guy. Is that wine in a box? Hey, Mark Wahlberg, shut up. Mark Wahlberg? Mark Wahlberg's like 150 pounds. I look like Mark Wahlberg, eight Mark Wahlbergs! Before you judge, you should know I'm doing fine. My friends are awesome. My apartment's. sick, and I have a great job at a men's magazine. I liked you Amy, you're clever, but you're not too brainy. You're pretty- ish, and you're not gorgeous. You're approachable. Thank you. Yeah. I'm giving you an assignment. I need a profile on a sports doctor.

Oh! [ NOISE ] So you're doing the article on me? Mm- hm. Sorry to interrupt. We watching Downton Abbey later? LeBron I'm being interviewed. Listen I'm watching it tonight. Cuz I'm not going to practice and all the guys are talking about it and I'm left out. All? Do you follow sports? Sports? I love them. Who's your favorite team? The Orlando, Bloom. Do you wanna get a drink? Yeah. [ MUSIC ] What am I doing? I slept at the doctor's place last night. My boy got intimate. Yes. Sexual intercourse. Oh. You never spend the night. What were you, black out drunk? No, I had like two drinks, three max, four now that I'm tallying.

does he run into bouts or something? Oh my god, he's calling me. Why would he call, you guys just had sex. This is Amy, I think you **** dialed me. No, I dialed you with my fingers. What's she saying, what's she saying? Hang up, he's obviously like sick or something. I was calling to say I had a really good time last night. I was wondering if you wanted to hang out again.
