Come on, Father.

Hurry up.

Don't bet, John. We'll make it. I told
you we should take that taxi. Come on.

Hello, John.

Have you got quality? Yes, fine. And
you? Fine, thanks.

Here you are, John.

Thank you.

Thank you, Father. Have a good term.
Work hard.

You really send me the new skis?

I try.

Not all that important, Father. Yes, it
is. You'll get them.

Now take care of yourself and drive this
time.

I will. Goodbye, Father.

Bye, Father.

Bye.

Holstau. Oh, there.

Don't believe it.

You look very prosperous.

How long is it, George?

Why, it must be seven, eight years, huh?
It must be. It's good to see you again.

Let's get away from all these people,
shall we?

Yes, you must. Have a drink. Go on.

And you, Ferry, what are you doing?
Where are you now?

I'm leaving your body.

In the Russian zone? Can't be easy.

Head of straw bags.

George, the last time that I saw you,
you were aide -de -camp to General

Sensenor, Army Intelligence.

What happened to him?

He wasn't intelligent enough.

He was in the Hitler bomb blood, you
know.

He got caught.

But not you.

Not me.

You're still crazy about fishing?

Oh, yes.

Why don't you come and fish with me
sometime? I've got a good stretch of

in the Helene and Tal Valley.

I'd love to sometime.

How about next Saturday?

Let's stay the night.

Yes, I'd like to. Good, that's fine.

It's my address.

Thank you.

It's getting rather late. I'm afraid
I'll have to leave you.

No, please, please.

My pleasure.

Keep the change.

Well, thank you very much, Ernie.

Cheers.

I'll see you on Saturday then, George.

All right.

Wonderful to see you again.

Here's to fishing, George.

Good? The best.

You're lucky the Russians didn't help
themselves around here.

Oh, Carla, come in.

George, I don't think you have met my
sister, Countess Cosimano. My dear, this

is an old school friend of mine, George
Troster.

Sir, he did not tell me you were coming.

I'm afraid I have to dine out tonight.
It's too late now to refuse.

I am sorry.

I'll pay him back by being very boring.

We will meet later, Herr Droste. I hope.

It's been a good day.

And a good evening.

For me, anyway.

I love to talk about old times, George.
I don't very often get the chance these

days. Oh, you would bury yourself down
here in the country?

I haven't any choice.

But you said the estate runs itself.

I tell you, I haven't any choice.

I'm sorry, George. I didn't mean to be
rude. It must be the brandy. Oh, no.

That brandy would get sweet music out of
the devil himself.

Yes.

You've walked me off my legs today,
George. I'm rather tired. I think I'll

bed. Me too, if you'll let me take a
book. Sure, help yourself.

Oh, and don't worry about getting up too
early.

What time is your bus?

Eleven o 'clock.

Well, shall we say breakfast at nine
thirty? That suits you. Fine.

Good night, George. Sleep well. Good
night.

Tried myself tonight.

Gold givers, God forgive us.

And from all our vows, believe us.

That we the treasure may reap of
pleasure For mentors of divisions and

elsewhere not here makes a love you
decease Please don't get up.

What are you reading probably?

Look in child Not a woman's author. No,
he laughed at women

too much. I think you do too

Oh, I wish I'd been here this evening.

I had the boring time you promised,
Ferdy.

But you'll come again, won't you?

I hope so, if I'm asked.

I'm asking you, now.

Thank you.

Oh, while I think of it, would you do
something for me?

Gladly, if I can.

This is a rather rare book I promised to
get for a friend of mine. A dealer

named Muller.

I don't trust the post between this part
of the country and yours.

Would you give it to him for me? Sure.
Where do I find him?

He is not in Vienna yet, but when he is
there, he will telephone to me and I

will give him your address.

30 Hazard, is it?

Yes, it's number 8 upon the castle.

Thank you so much.

You're very kind.

Goodbye, Herr Droste.

Please try to come again soon.

Good night.

This man's following me.

This the guy we're looking for?

Yes, that's him. Come on, Buster.

Okay,

Buster, let's go.

Come on, come on, take it easy.

Okay, Jeff.

May I know why I've been brought here,
sir? And your name?

Oh, I'm sorry. Forget it.

My name is Smith.

This is my office.

Sit down, Herr Drost. Will you please?

Honoured that you should know my name.

Well, let's see.

George Droste.

Widower, number eight, de Pontegasse.

Salesman for Schlegelhammer & Company,
wine merchants at Bosendorferstrasse.

War service, major intelligence.

How long have you been working for the
Soviet Secret Service, Herr Drosten?

I haven't been working for the Soviet
Secret Service at all, Mr. Smith.

Oh.

You, uh, spent yesterday and last night
on premises from where they operate,

near Baden. I stayed with a man I've
known for 25 years.

Van Van Staap, yes.

You, uh...

Met him at the railway station last
Tuesday, didn't you?

Yes. How do you know?

I suppose you didn't bring this back

to Vienna with you.

I don't know anything about it.

Only that it's for a man called Muller
who's supposed to come to my flat and

pick it up. It's a book.

It is indeed.

A code book.

containing ciphers of the United States
Intelligence Service.

About some of them.

This is all nonsense. I don't believe
it.

What did they pay you to bring it, Herr
Droste?

I'm telling you, they just asked me to
take it and let this man Muller have it.

I had no reason to suspect anything was
wrong.

You know, I'm inclined to believe you.

But who else would?

When you're a friend of von Staub's,
whom we know as a Soviet agent.

And you were caught for this, aren't
you?

You're in trouble there, Rusty. Real
trouble.

I have a perfectly good record.

If you want to lock me up till you've
checked it, go ahead.

Why can't you bet it on that?

I might be able, perhaps, I say perhaps,
make a deal with you that would suit us

both better than having you locked up.

You mean working for the U .S. Secret
Service?

I take it that this is what it is.

Right.

And you can only be useful to us if the
other side thinks that you're working

for them.

You do what I tell you.

Refuse?

I'll have you put away.

Hello?

Herr Boster?

Yes.

My name is Muller.

I'm just outside your building.

I believe you have something for me from
Countess Cosimano.

So I have. I have it right here. Would
you like to come up?

Good, right away. Yes, I will do that at
once.

I have a seat and have a glass of wine.
I'm just trying the new Kremser. Very

good, too. I'm in the wine business.

Take your hat off, won't you?

Thank you. Thank you. Your help.

Yes, I'm worried about that, too.

Please.

Nothing. You have a book for me.

So I have.

A rare book, is it?

Here you are.

Thank you. Thank you very much. Do you
have another sip? No, no, thank you.

You're very kind.

Herr Droste, you will be going to stay
with our friends again sometime?

I hope so, yes. They told me to invite
myself.

Ah, they are close friends, perhaps?

Well, von Staub I've known a long time,
but the Countess I've only just met.

I see.

Oh, by the way, I have some old family
photographs of theirs.

They left them in my house some time
ago.

Perhaps the next time you go to stay,
you will take them with you?

Why don't you mail them, Herr Müller? I
don't know when I'll be going.

Herr Droster, yes, I understand, but you
know the post is often unreliable. I

had hoped that... No.

Oh.

No, I'll take them. It'll give me an
excuse to ask myself that. Exactly,

exactly, exactly.

Oh, I have no idea how late it is. I
must go. I have a train to catch. You

meet again, Herr Müller, and talk about
books.

Books? Oh, yes, yes, of course.

Yes. Herr Müller, you've forgotten
something.

Oh, good heavens.

Yes, yes.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Well, then address the package to Box
17, Post Restaurant, at the

post office.

You got that?

Yes. And invite yourself to von Stab's
again.

Don't worry, they'll be delighted.

When? As soon as you can, next weekend.

The package will be back in your hands
in plenty of time.

All right.

Anything else, sir?

Did you tell the Baron that I wanted to
see him before you went downstairs?

Yes, sir, I did.

All right, that's all.

Something you want, George?

Yes.

I want to talk to you.

Of course.

Anything wrong?

I thought that when you asked me down
here, you did so because we were old

friends.

That wasn't so, was it?

Well, naturally.

What do you mean?

A man in Vienna gave me this for you.
It's supposed to be full of photographs

your family.

Let me look at them. Open it.

It's not for me. It's addressed to my
sister.

And it isn't full of photographs either,
is it?

Look here, Freddy. I'm not that much of
a fool.

The last time I was here, I was given a
package to take to Vienna to give to a

book dealer who wasn't a book dealer.

Did you know that?

On your word of honor, did you?

Yes. Yes, I did.

That's why you got me down here.

To use me as a courier, didn't you?

Yes, George, I did.

But there's no risk involved.

You travel a great deal. No one's going
to suspect you. No one's going to watch

you. Nor believe me when I'm caught.

It's espionage, isn't it?

I was an intelligence long enough to
smell that one out.

All right, I did what I was asked.

I brought you that ticket.

But that's all.

I want no more of it.

I want to go on living with my face in
front of my head.

All of this in the middle of the Soviet
zone, with everything in it.

You're working for them, aren't you?

They are very generous masters, George.

Yeah. To you and your sister.

And to you also, if you say so.

There are only two living truths in this
world today, George.

Profit and survival. I can offer you
both.

Enough to keep body and soul apart.

Enough to buy a decent living for
yourself and for that boy of yours.

It's up to you, George.

You can either use your life or lose it.

What do you mean?

You have been working for us. You are
known.

Also, you are on the hook, like me. And
I won't let you off because you know too

much. You make one false move and
somewhere, sometime, you will be

You make the right move and they will
make you rich.

The choice is yours, George.

I've had to make mine.

Mission completed.

I'll think about it.

Oh, there's just one other thing.

I wouldn't say anything about us to my
sister if I were you until you have

completely made up your mind. Otherwise,
there might be an accident.

She's a very ruthless woman.

So this time you're officially their
agent.

Yeah. Tonight I get an advance of 5 ,000
Austrian shillings together with the

parts of a miniature radio transmitter.

And what are you supposed to do with it?
Take it to Budapest where I collect

another 5 ,000 COD.

You agreed?

Didn't you want me to?

Certainly.

Though, considering what they're
offering to pay you, I'm surprised you

tell me.

How would I get out of the West without
your sanction, let alone getting back

into it?

Yes.

And what are we going to pay you for
telling us what this is all about?

Exactly.

You'll get the going rate.

I don't care what they're paying you for
doing what they want, or what you say

they're paying.

You don't trust me.

Not an inch.

And when do you take delivery of the
radio?

Tonight at ten o 'clock. Muller's
bringing it up to the flat.

Call me when he's left.

We're now at the Austro -Hungarian
border.

Customs officials will board the train.

This is not a scheduled stop.

Captain, your papers, please.

So it's her.

Why are you going to put the piss?

Well, I'm in the wine business, and I'm
hoping to establish some contacts.

I see.

Thank you.

Would you open that case, please,
comrade?

Yes, of course.

Thank you. Good night.

Just a minute.

Coming.

Plumber comrade, do come in.

Checking the radiators.

I'll go right ahead.

Who sent you?

Can't disclose your mouth. You Hobart?
Yes.

Where is it?

You don't trust me, do you?

There's some instructions for it.

They're on this microfilm.

That is that.

Well, not quite.

Oh, yes.

What's this?

A little something on account, comrade.

You will be paid in full later when we
have instructions for you.

And when will that be?

I do not give the orders. I just pass
them on.

There is enough there to keep you amused
while you wait.

Oh, of course.

Here is a list of places you should see.

Shops. museums, even nightclubs.

Everything that is best.

We play host to you, comrade.

Enjoy yourself.

You will hear from me later, comrade.

Don't let it be too long, comrade.

Reception? This is Hammond, room 423.

If you have done with my passport, would
you send it up, please?

I am sorry, sir.

The state security police have got it.

Well, how long are they going to keep
it?

No, thank you.

Monsieur, tonight we have the most
beautiful and tender chicken paprika.

I've had my dinner.

Monsieur, is not Hungarian?

No, I'm Austrian.

Ah, we have a wonderful Austrian wine.

It comes from Kirchner 49.

Have you now?

All right.

Will you give me a laugh?

May I ask a dance?

Welcome, stranger.

Oh, lovely, my favorite wine.

What is it?

I don't know.

Where do you come from?

Vienna. Vienna?

I hope it's here.

Georgie, if I got to Vienna, do you
think I could get a job there like this?

I'm certain of it. You could get there,
but you can't.

Anna, that is all you know.

There are ways, darling.

Not anymore, they tell me.

Oh, yes, there are.

But somebody knows one.

Who's he?

Never you mind, but he does. I'm sure he
does.

Let me draw the curtain, Georgie.

Little more romantic.

Come on, boys.

She was nice.

Do you think I'm nice?

Just a little, hmm?

I think you're very nice.

Thank you.

You don't have to pay me anymore.

Thank you, Victor.

Reception?

This is Hellman, room 423.

I want the plumber. The radiator needs
fixing.

Yeah.

Oh, no.

I'm broke.

You better tell your superiors I want to
be paid.

I couldn't even settle this hotel bill
if I had to leave.

You'll leave, comrade, when you're given
permission and not before.

Where's my passport?

With the police, no doubt.

No doubt.

Look here, Horvath, I want to get my
money.

I'll see what I can do.

Meet me on the corner of Coshby Street
at three o 'clock.

How do you like our Budapest, Herr
Droster?

Old Herr Hermann, should we say.

Have you been here before?

Only during the war.

Ah, yes.

Under General Centenor.

Well, a few things have changed since
then.

Some haven't. I was old back then, and I
am now.

You're a character, Herr Droster.

Very good.

A man after my own heart.

I understand from the Countess Cosimano
you are not a member of the Communist

Party. Right. What about it?

I have a job for you which might
conflict with certain ideological

you will.

Oh. There is a nightclub here called
Duna.

One of the girls working there is a
Soviet agent.

A very minor one, of course.

Who wants to find out something that I
want to find out, too.

Her name is Pirozhka Maslow.

I've met her.

I've been to the place.

Very good.

You passed that test with honours.

No lies between us, eh?

I know you met the girl.

But don't tell me you suspected her.

I thought she might be one of your
agents.

Oh? Why?

She made a mistake.

She did what no real nightclub hostess
ever does.

She gave me something for nothing.

Well, well, you certainly are a
character, comrade.

She has been sent to try to get a line
on a new escape route across our

to your country.

You are obviously just the man to find
out how far she has got.

Why don't you ask her yourself?

She works for the Soviets.

The Russian government is our friend and
protector, Herr Droster.

But in their own eyes, they come first.

They have to be tactful.

They want to use this escape route for
their own purposes.

I want to close it before they find out
where it is.

Bring me this information. I will pay
you 2 ,000 Austrian shillings. You

owe me 5 ,000 for the transmitter.

I can't work on the girl unless you pay
me.

I haven't even got enough money to get
to the men's room at the Juno.

It's the more on account.

They'll settle for both jobs later.

Which means never.

Unless I do this one.

What made your passport yet?

No, no, no. What for?

You're not thinking of going anywhere,
are you?

Of course not.

When everything's so cozy here.

All right, I'll work on the girl. I
expect you ever to see her now?

Small one. She's new.

What do you want to know?

Mainly where she lives. This calls for
homework.

For just as when Peter betrayed our
Lord, in so doing he betrayed himself.

He became his own prisoner.

For it is true, freedom is something we
may choose for ourselves.

But many of us are our own jailers.

We are the prisoners of ourselves.

In the name of the Father, and the Son,
and the Holy Ghost.

Amen.

Come in.

Father Zambari?

Yes?

I've heard your sermon about freedom.

I believed in it and in you.

Enough to take a chance.

What do you mean?

trouble, Father. I need help.

The chance I'm taking is that if you
give me away, I'm done for.

I'm a priest.

Whatever you say to me is between
ourselves. You must know that.

Yes.

I must get out of Hungary.

Quickly.

Well, you're a foreigner.

You should have no trouble.

The priests have my passport and they
won't give it back.

They suspect me.

Oh?

Of what?

Of being an agent for the West.

They're right.

You confess it?

This is a police state, Herr Droster.

What you said about our being our own
jailers, Father, persuaded me. I am

jailed by the work I'm doing. I can't
escape it.

How can I know that what you're telling
me is true, Herr Droster?

You can call the police and hand me
over.

If I'm lying, you're not involved.

If I'm not, you'll have my death on your
conscience. It's I, Father, who's

taking the chances, not you.

For whom are you working?

The Americans.

Why did they send you here?

To find out what I could about Hungarian
spies at chief headquarters.

I've done that. How?

I've sent with the papers and passwords
of a Soviet agent and with something

that you were expecting.

Why do you think they suspect you now?

They want to pay me in heaven. They want
to send me back and won't.

I'm afraid and I don't know what to do.
I see.

And tell me this.

Who's your chief in Austria?

Where's his headquarters?

He calls himself Smith.

His office is at number 24A Maria
Hilfstrasse in Vienna.

You know him, then?

I've heard of him.

I'll help you, Droster.

There's a party leaving for the frontier
at the end of this month.

Don't help him, Father, don't!

You know this man?

I heard everything you said to him.
Don't help him. Father, quiet!

Goodbye! If you betray me, too!

I won't betray you, Father.

I will never betray you.

Never.

Father's mind. Yes, I know. You are
late. You must hurry. Lead by the side

That way. Just opposite is the entrance
to the post office.

No one ever stops at such a mail van.
There's one leaving at 8 o 'clock. The

driver's expecting you. Please run.
Thank you.

The church is closed, my son. Your son.
Give me the key.

There you are.

There'll be four leaving for the
frontier in the morning.

I'm afraid you'll have to share a room
with two here.

And be locked in until you go. This way.

All right, you win, curse you.

I'm going to bed.

Who are you?

Did Zambari send you?

Yes. Foster.

Very well.

I am Count Despalvi.

Hmm? Oh, that.

Three whole days I've been cooped up
here with that imbecile.

Paul Voss.

He's worked for me all his stupid life.

Even when the government took away all
my lands, I couldn't get rid of him. I

suppose you'll follow me around like a
dog, even in Austria.

That is so.

I teach him to read. He reads and reads
and then argues to make a fool of me.

I teach him to play chess.

He beats me.

Now I have to escape.

He knows how.

A great overgrown lung.

You've been with him a long time,
haven't you?

Always.

I was told there were four of us going.

Yes. The foster woman.

This is Fraulein Goldenhead, Rusty.

Are you ready?

Come on!

I was wondering about you.

Why you'd taken such chances. Who were
you leaving behind and what?

No one.

Nothing.

A flat.

A job I've already lost.

Why? What was it?

In a secretariat of the university.

Was that so bad?

No.

I did a silly thing. I warned one of the
professors. The police were

intercepting his mail and tapping his
telephone.

You know, they frown on independence of
thought.

They found out I had, and now they're
looking for me. I have to get away.

I'm an enemy of the people's revolution,
Herr Drosten.

May I see your paper, comrade?

If he doesn't even get on, I can't stand
this for him.

Are you mad? Keep quiet.

Watch to the barn.

Someone will be waiting.

Ah, here he is.

Hoodbuck.

Come. Come this way. Come with me.

Help me.

Where are my glasses?

Where are we, Father?

Two kilometers from the frontier.

We start at three in the morning, so try
and get some sleep.

Let me down, Paul.

I'm not going to lie on that. You put
this down first.

Making plan?

I've given up making plan.

Where will you be in Vienna?

Why?

I want to see you.

We are not yet across the frontier.

So you are supposed to have the best
laid schemes of... I shall stay with a

friend. Forget my Pilaria.

I'll see you then.

What are you, Herr Droste?

Why were you in Budapest?

I went to see an old friend in business.

He's a wine merchant, so am I.

I found that he had been arrested on
some political charge.

The police sent for me and questioned
me. They took my passport away. I got

scared.

Then I heard of Father Samari.

I thought you had desperate adventures.
You look like it.

Who did appoint you? Everything always.

A wine merchant without a passport.

The frontier wire is 200 meters straight
ahead.

The lower strands have been cut there.

Searchlight Tower is manned by two of
our own people.

But if they see you, they'll have to
open fire as they're watched.

Go two by two, and God be with you.

Who will go first?

Thank you, Father.

Goodbye. Thank you.

Thank you.

Keep on fighting!

bad report.

The information is what I wanted, all
right.

Too bad you had to get out before you
could collect.

Yes, too bad.

And you came out alone, hmm?

Just you?

That's it, just me.

What was that Soviet agent to Parashka
like?

Cute?

She couldn't have been cuter. When do I
get paid?

In a day or two. I have to put the
requisition in.

Quite frankly, I thought they'd get you
there in Budapest.

They're even cuter than Terushka.

I'm going to use you, Droste.

You're pretty good.

I've got another job for you, right up
your street.

Do you remember General Greenhorn?

He was head of Eastern Front
Intelligence during the war. That's all

Yes. Now he's a top man in a special
branch, stationed at Hamburg.

And for a while, so are you.

Would you mind being a little more
explicit?

We do a certain amount of liaison with
this special branch.

You're being posted to his staff.

He's up to something.

The German federal government and mine
want to know what it is.

I suggested you for the job.

Why pick on me?

You were in army intelligence.

He'll like that.

I understand he loves to be reminded of
his great days.

You'll be able to get him talking in a
language that you'll both understand.

And then what?

Flatter him.

Make him trust you and see what you can
learn. But watch out.

Green hands cagey That's what I want you
to do Listen John,

I have to go away in a business trip I'm
sorry, but yes,

I did send you a present, you know Yeah,
I had a sort of a bonus a windfall

Yeah, the thing you wanted it's in a
camera a 16 millimeter job and a

hey, that's marvelous This is what I've
always wanted.

You wait till the boys hear about this.

They'll be green with envy. All right,
now. All right, John.

And next holiday, we'll go away
together.

What? Where? Wherever you like. You can
choose.

You've got a new job?

Yes, much better job.

All right, John. Now, take care. Do a
spot of work, huh?

Bye. Bye. Bye.

You love him very much, don't you?

Yes, I do.

And I don't love Wiesel.

Do you?

No.

I've always been afraid of falling in
love.

It's like buying a sweepstake ticket.

You think you'll win the jackpot, though
at the same time you do not really

believe you will.

Buy your tickets from me?

You know nothing about me.

For 24 hours we were closer together
than... Most people have a gut.

Yes.

But still... All right. Then tell me.

I have no family.

I have nothing.

No home, no country.

Nothing.

You have everything.

You're brave.

You're good. You're kind.

I don't want you ever to go away.

But you are going away.

I'll be back soon.

Oh, please.

Please.

No.

You're the only person in the world I
trust. No.

Don't ever spoil it.

Or I will never trust again.

Why do you look like that?

What is wrong?

Nothing.

That you don't know me either.

I know what I see.

I heard you with your son to know a
little more.

Tell Yellinger I wish to see him. Yes,
sir.

Then you can go home.

Thank you, Herr General.

Again, I?

I'm interested in your position here,
Yellinger.

How do the shoes fit?

Shoes, again, I?

Yes.

Dead man's shoes.

Yering had died two months ago.

I'm not supposing you came here on your
own initiative.

Who sent you?

It is not the first time that an agent
has been sent here to spy on me.

That does not bother me.

I remembered where it was that I saw you
last.

With that fool Zenzanel in 43.

I said fool.

Because any man is a fool who allows
himself to end up facing a firing squad.

Your name is Drosten.

I have checked your army record.

It's very good.

Thank you.

You should have been with me instead of
with Sengenor.

I wish I had been, I cannot lie. You
were a hero to all of us in those days.

You may sit down.

Thank you.

You are Austrian.

Half German.

The half that matters.

If Saint -Honor hadn't bungled his part,
things would have been different.

The army would have made peace on its
terms.

I didn't like losing the war.

Did you?

Whoever does.

Exactly.

But an intelligent man will consolidate
whatever position is left to him.

You agree?

I put in the practice.

Thank you. I thought so.

I'm a good judge of character.

I'm never wrong.

Well, Herr Major, would you like things
to be again as they used to be, eh?

It depends.

Of course.

You are now a professional agent.

What have I to offer?

Perhaps you will agree that our federal
government is weak.

Dreamers. Theorists.

But there are others who know me and who
trust me.

And perhaps you will agree that as one
-time head of the Eastern Intelligence,

am an expert on Soviet affairs.

Yes, of course.

Yes, of course.

Very well.

With certain cooperation, I could build
up the greatest intelligence

organization in the world.

The Eastern and the Western powers would
both be dependent upon me.

What sort of cooperation do you mean?

Well, that is where I am gambling on my
judgment of your character, Herr Major.

I hope you'll honor me.

I'll tell you all you need to know.

For the moment.

I must get back the archives I was
forced to hide when we retreated from

Russians in 1945.

The blueprints for my whole organization
for the Eastern Zone.

Names of my contacts.

People considered unreliable by the
East.

Summoners.

In a word, men for sale.

Of course, both sides would very much
like to have my archives.

They know that they exist.

And I imagine that you are thinking how
very clever you would be to ferret out

from me where they are and sell them to
the highest bidder.

Why not?

That is your profession, to put things
on auction.

And that is why I must be in a position
to outbid them all.

What have we in the East?

What have we in the West?

Germans.

Germans?

Never will I permit German to fight
German.

And I am in a position to prevent it.

The great secret organization, my secret
organization, will be a moral

institution. And only thus can the
injustice of this ridiculous armistice

be corrected.

There cannot be two Germanists.

The Western powers believe that too.

Don't argue.

I have the only answer.

I can send my men to the East to spy for
the West. And my men to the West to spy

for the East.

And my organization will be the only
mediator.

Until one day... But you

are a professional agent.

Very well.

Here is my proposition.

I have certain friends behind me.

And I will guarantee you the sum of $100
,000 if you obtain those archives and

place them where I can put hands on
them.

Guarantee is a big word, Hagenauer.

Not at all.

To begin with, the moment I inform
Washington of the existence of my

organization, that is, that part of it
that I am prepared to divulge, they will

immediately place millions at my
disposal.

Well, isn't the United States Treasury
guarantee enough for you?

You're leaving something out.

What?

What you said before.

I might track down those archives, but
then I might go and offer them for sale

to the United States government myself.

You would never live to spend a cent of
it.

I promise you.

My friends would see to that.

Well, are you interested?

Fascinated. Good.

Come here.

archives were hidden. No, he said you
would.

My job's to get them.

They're in the eastern zone, in the
Potsdam morgue.

Morgue? Yes, you'll contact there an
official. His name is Herr Bloch.

He's in the Greenhorn organization, too,
and you'll do exactly what he says.

Good luck.

You'll need it.

Thank you.

Just now. But there will be plenty in
the main room before the night's out.

Accidents will happen these days.

You're on sole charge here, Bloch. For
25 years, uninterrupted.

Even by the war?

Certainly. Has it not struck you that
the only thing war and peace have in

common is the proper registration of the
dead?

In here, under the floor, under the next
two lockers, are the General's

archives. Cold storage, eh?

They've been faithfully guarded all
these years by me and the dead.

I will have to lock you in here while
you get them so no one will disturb you.

Thanks.

You've come on the right day.

Once every week there is an exchange of
coffins between the East and the West.

Workers from the West who die in the
East have to be transferred back for

and vice versa.

The dead at least have no trouble with
the Iron Curtain. No.

There are two coffins to go.

I will provide you with a third to pack
your papers in and give you the

necessary documents to go with it. I
see.

You will also drive the truck.

Your route will be prepared for you, and
when you get to Western Sector, you'll

find Dr. Ritter on duty there to admit
your passengers without inspection.

I'll leave you to your work now.

Thank you.

Have you finished?

The truck is waiting.

How long did you say you had been down
here?

Twenty -five years.

Three? I thought there was only two.
You're not me to think. Load it.

Your own papers are in there, too. Give
my respects and duty to General Green on

when you see him. He won't be forgotten
for this, sir.

Let

me

see your papers.

Here you are.

At least this this time. Yeah, good run
a lot about Hilda Schmidt right you're

new to this Lemon yep All right to go
through. What's the hurry come down?

Come on get down. We'll open up one of
the coffins I

Don't met no, thank you.

We will

Okay. Thank you, comrade.

Hello? General Greenard?

Yes. Hello, sir. Droster speaking.

Ah.

Well? Well, I've found the stuff.

Good. But there weren't as many as we
thought.

Only one.

Only one cartel?

Yes, the place was bombed.

You're quite sure it wasn't looted?
Quite sure.

It was burnt at Potsdam, eh? Yes,
indeed, sir.

The rest was totally destroyed.

Well,

that at least is something.

What did you do with the one cartel?

I buried it in the North Cemetery, in
the vault of one Kurt Brauner.

It shall be collected.

The money paid to your Swiss bank on the
same day.

I knew I had chosen the right man.

I'm never wrong.

We will meet again.

Right, sir.

He says this is all he found there. The
rest had either been burned or popped by

water. There's still plenty here,
though.

Have you paid him?

What do you think? He wouldn't hand this
over till I had.

Hey, Dad.

Hello. Have you caught anything?

Are you kidding?

Go and tell him it's ready.

I've never seen him change so much these
last days.

You remember how awful he looked when we
got here?

You're very close, you two.

Yes, I suppose we are now.

Not always before?

Well, not in the same way.

You see, before he had this good job, he
used to be worried all the time.

You know, hating not having things he
used to.

It's all on account of me. He's sort of
silly.

You like him, don't you?

Yes, I like him.

Go and tell him.

Hey, tell him that. He's not blind, you
know.

Go tell him lunch is ready, stupid.

Hey, Dad.

Oh, Sam.

Picnic's ready.

What? Picnic's ready.

Coming.

Oh, boy.

No luck?

This is my day.

Party is over.

You all packed for tomorrow morning?

Oh, dear, school.

I thought you liked it there.

Oh, yes, of course I do.

You know, after three weeks here.

You know, I can't wait to see those
shots I took of you, Father. When you

in that deep hole in the stream and
vanished right up the... Yes.

Why, you have a distorted sense of
humor. Off with you to bed.

All right.

Good night, Nora.

Good night.

Well, Patty.

I was thinking what you said about the
party's over.

I hate things to end.

It's been wonderful here.

Yes, hasn't it?

He's a good boy.

He's great.

He's very proud of you.

What's the matter?

Nothing. Nothing is the matter.

Don't go away from me like that.

Or ever.

Please, George.

All right, I'll go to bed. Good night.

Whatever happens, do you hear? Whatever
happens.

I love you.

Remember that.

What are you doing here?

I was sent to see you.

By whom?

Never mind.

Well, what do you want? I'm not in
business anymore. I've retired.

You are too clever for your own good,
Herr Droste.

You tricked us in Budapest and you
tricked us in Hamburg.

Nobody tricks us. We don't like it.

You didn't mind tricking me.

When? In Budapest, when I brought the
transmitter over.

You would have been paid if you had
carried out your orders and turned

over to us.

Oh, Zambari.

Unfortunately.

He has got away.

Unlike you, Herr Droste. You will not
get away.

We expect value for our money.

I'm afraid you're going to be
disappointed then, Miller.

We don't like this high -handed attitude
of yours, Herr Droste. To bear, I do as

I please.

On the contrary, you do as we tell you.

Once a spy, always a spy.

We give the orders.

You are our man. You're talking through
the back of your neck, Miller. I'm

nobody's man. Tell your boss just that.

I'm a free agent. No agent is ever free.

I have orders for you to come with me.

Go away, Muller. You frighten me.

You will go with me to the car that is
waiting.

No.

Do not make me do it to you.

You haven't got the guts.

There are others.

You will see.

No matter where you go, you will be
found.

We do not like double agents.

We are going to kill him.

You can sweat it out waiting till we do.

Listen, Father, now I'm going, won't you
tell me? There's nothing to tell.

Yes, but why did she disappear?

Well, did you have a quarrel?

Well, what about? I mean, what happened?

Nothing happened, John. I don't know any
more than you do.

She just left.

Now listen to me and keep this under
your head. I might come and get you in a

couple of weeks. Come and get me? What
do you mean? Take you away. I might go.

That is, my firm might send me abroad,
South America or somewhere.

I take your law. South America, you mean
it? And not the two or three of us.

It'll be marvelous, Dad.

Yes, but not a word, eh? Just wait.

Thank you.

He was lucky, Inspector.

Said bullet just scraped his shoulder.

How are you feeling now?

I'll come and see you again in the
morning. I'll keep in touch with you.

night, Inspector.

Good night.

And I'll see you tomorrow.

And don't let him get up like that.

Right.

Hello, George.

Remember me?

At school.

Shubling.

Shubling. Poor him.

Did he call you Inspector?

He did.

I joined the police force after the war.

How did you get here?

I was at headquarters when your janitor
telephoned about the shooting here.

And your name rang a bell.

You bring a policeman.

Still the old prefect.

Doctor, the man who shot at you has been
taken to hospital. He was still

unconscious. He was a broken jaw.

Good. From the papers on him, he is from
Hamburg.

From a return railway ticket he had. He
left there only yesterday.

He must have come straight here from the
station.

What do you make of that?

I don't. What do you?

Do you know anyone in Hamburg?

No. Some wine merchants.

Perhaps a dissatisfied customer.

Troster, this isn't anything to joke
about.

What sort of people live in this
building?

Do you think he might have mistaken your
flat for somebody else's?

No. All perfectly decent people have
been here for years.

Don't try to move.

I'll take it.

This is Inspector Hubling.

What?

You fool.

And put out a description on the air.
I'll see you later.

The man's climbed out of a window at the
hospital and got away.

Nice work.

Now look, George.

We always got on well together, huh? In
the old days.

We did.

And be honest with me now.

You're holding something back, aren't
you?

I'm as mystified as you are, Hubling.

George, the police are here to help you.

But we can't if you want to help
yourself.

All right.

If you change your mind, come and see me
personally.

Will you do that? If I ever do find out
what this is about, I will.

Same old Hubling.

You used to worry about me being bullied
by that big oaf.

Cas... Caswell. Caswell, right.

Remember? Yes, I remember.

Well, come and see me anyway, hmm?

Old friends are always best, you know.

And, George, if I were you, until we've
caught this gunman, I would get out of

town. I've been thinking along these
lines.

Good. I'll look after you, sir.

Have you been on a bender these last few
days? You look awful.

I'm all right.

What do you want me for?

The Green Arms stuff you brought in
wasn't all that useful.

Apparently, the other side got some of
it, too.

What you brought in was just enough to
neutralize theirs.

I'm going to give you just one more
chance.

I don't want it, Smith.

I'm through with the whole thing.

Oh, no, my friend.

No.

Once you're in, you're in.

As you once said to me, you are stuck.

But there's a job to be done, and done
fast.

Where have you been Why did you go away
tell me I've been out of my mind

I have nothing to tell you When you just
vanished without a reason, without

saying anything, is that fair?

Fair?

No. All right, George, it isn't fair.

Then tell me.

What had I done?

All right, I will tell you.

You lied to me.

I trusted you.

I thought you were the only brave and
honest man I knew.

And then that night at the hotel, as you
had said, the party really was over.

I heard you talking to a man.

A stranger.

And both of you were strangers.

Yes.

Everything you had ever said to me was a
lie from the beginning.

I couldn't face you after hearing.

You're a spy.

The worst kind for money.

And even lied to those people.

Yes.

Only one thing wasn't and isn't a lie.

I love you, Nora.

Oh, don't leave me alone.

I've been alone before. I can be alone
again.

Yes, we all can.

But do believe this one truth.

My train leaves in five minutes.

Where are you going?

Away. Not like this.

Please, not like this. You can't.

It's not for my sake, Inspector John.

You heard she thought he could depend on
you.

Stop, stop.

Who is being unfair now?

Come away with me. We'll get John, and
the three of us will go away anywhere in

the world.

No.

It's over for us.

You know it is.

I can't love a liar, a man without
loyalty.

I tried to quit, but I'm trapped. They
won't let me.

Let you? Are you a child?

No, but I have a child, and that's the
reason.

Just put me away and tell him why.

It would break his heart, and you know
it.

Yes, it would.

I lied to you about myself because I had
to.

But I never lied to you about us.

So promise me one thing concerning John.

If anything should happen to me,
anything, promise that you'll look after

It's my dream,

Thomas. I do.

What a surprise.

What's this, a plant?

By whom?

Your charming friends.

Why, are you running too?

Yes, I'm running too, from everyone,
including me.

I'm not surprised.

The difference is, I will get away.

They were satisfied to take just
everything I had, except a little they

know about.

But you...

They'll never let you escape.

Not after Budapest.

Berlin. I got around.

I know. I sponsored you.

That's one of the reasons they got rid
of me.

I hope they get you, George.

Charming.

How's your dear brother?

He vanished over a week ago.

They want him worse than they want you.

I'll tell you after we start.

I have so much to tell you. Please.

Are

you

mad?

Jumping off like that, you might have
been killed.

All right, you are.

Hey, what's happened? Close the
curtains. Close.

After me.

I know. I've seen Carla.

Carla? Don't worry. She's nowhere to be
found. What's the matter? Are you ill?

I'm half frozen. I've been waiting
outside there for hours. I don't know

to go. Here.

I'm on the run.

Yes.

I grow sick of the whole thing. Sick of
the lies. Sick of the deception.

Sick of being used.

And then when you went wrong, they tried
to associate me with you. Carla told

them. My dear sister.

To excuse herself for having brought you
in.

I've been a great help all around,
haven't I?

You can be, George.

You can help to undo what both of us
have done.

How do you mean?

I can do nothing. I'm wanted in both
sectors, and I don't know anyone to go

I don't either.

Wake up, men. I've been selling out both
sides.

What the hell can I do?

You can get someone to publish and to
broadcast this.

Sit down.

What's in it?

Microfilm. Of names, maps, dispatches,
notes, notes of every single thing that

went on in my house.

We were the headquarters of the service.

I know all that.

Chores are names of people in here, from
all over the world, people in

government, people in insta, you don't
begin to know.

If there's one man, one honest man, in
any kind of authority, a man you could

get to, a man who could be trusted, who
could get the press of the whole world

to expose this stink.

One honest man.

There might be one.

I don't know quite what to say.

Von Staub and you, whom I grew up with,
admired, envied.

Oh, yes, envied, both of you.

My father wasn't as rich as yours.

Your hopes were quite different from
mine. And now you tell me this.

Hubling, you have a future. I haven't.
Von Staub hasn't. All I can do is hand

over this dynamite to somebody I can
trust.

Nobody would believe me, a spy, but
they'll listen to you if you give them

evidence.

George, this is too big for me.

It's too big for any one man, but you
could start it.

Yes, yes, I suppose I could.

What you say is true.

The Commissioner and Minister of Justice
will listen to me, I think.

Where is this evidence von Staub showed
you?

Under the floorboards in my flat.

I'd better tell you just in case
something happens to me.

This is an awful responsibility.

There are powerful names involved in
this.

You never were afraid of bullies.

You will have to go away and hide until
this breaks and you can testify.

Yes. I know of a little place in
Wolfgangssee near Salzburg.

You can get me there.

Yes, that's far enough away.

Now, George.

You've been a fool and a rogue for too
long.

But if you're willing to risk your
liberty for this, I'll do all I can.

You said all trends are always best.

You were right.

Thank you, Paul.

Good luck.

And to you.

Outside line, please.

Thank you.

Miller, he's just left.

I know where the headquarters papers
are.

He'll be downstairs in a minute.

Get him.
