Previously -This may be a successful cooperation.

You're on the transport list to Auschwitz.

I'll put it short. I know who your fiancée is.

Halt! Documents!

What're you waiting for? Run!

SOLID PAPERS Episode 18

Good morning.

They released our daughter, she's home.

-Released, from Pawiak? -It happens.

Could I talk to her? I've got someone there.

It might be difficult. She went through a lot.

They took her husband and son,

shot them, and released her.

But... you can give it a try.

Thanks.

May I?

I'm a tenant, I need a word with you.

My fiancée is in Pawiak. Wand Ryszkowska, an actress.

Maybe you've seen her? I don't know if she's still there.

She was to be sent to Auschwitz.

Excuse me.

The last two days

brought cowardly attacks on Germans.

-In retaliation, executions... -Animals.

-Helena... -Danka.

Let's go.

-They won't intimidate us. -Bastards.

Though they shouldn't have shot Fischer.

-He helped release Poles. -Fischer?

-That bribe-taker. Come. - Kowalski Wladyslaw,

Kotlarski Eugeniusz,

Szewczyk Karol, Zakolinski Antoni...

Don't fret.

Report the theft, they'll give you a new lD.

It's paper, not diamonds.

You don't know my boss. I'm as good as fired.

He sends people to the front for tardiness.

-Come on... -Morning.

Mr. Nowotnik lost his lD card.

They stole it.

-Who? -Bandits.

-Buy one at the bazaar. -There.

-Where? -Black market. They've got it all.

-Where from? -Why do you think

they stole yours? To sell it.

It's illegal.

It's your choice.

-It'll be alright. -I've got to go.

-Thanks for breakfast. -Good bye.

I was scared, but he slept soundly.

Great job. Thank you.

What now?

I'll deal with it.

I should've told you, but you'd think I panicked.

-I'm sorry. -Calm down. I'll deal with it.

-Where will you get the money? -I won't pay him.

-You want to kill him? -Leave it to me.

-I won't have it! -It's not just about you.

-You've changed. You're so... -Listen...

Take a shower.

You mean... they took her to Auschwitz?

I don't know. I hoped the bribe would do it.

I was on my way to tell Wanda about a job at the cafe.

The new owner needs waitresses. Maybe they'd hire you?

A few days ago I'd rejoice.

I'll get you an interview.

Thank you.

It's closed! Sorry.

Morning.

-Everything OK? -Of course.

We'll just look around.

Shall I bring cognac?

We're on duty. Go.

-Yes, sir. -The clock.

-That's right. -Not too obvious?

Why? You can't see a thing.

-I noticed it. -They don't have such experts.

Let's hope. Are your men ready?

Let's go.

-Everything OK? -Yes, sir.

-The equipment? -Perfect.

Earphones.

-Thanks. -Play it.

-Not too obvious? -Why? You can't see a thing.

-I noticed it. -Stop.

-Well? -Not bad.

This releases the camera in the clock.

- As long as it gets us somewhere. -It will.

Continue.

-Hi, handsome. -Hania!

-I heard you buried me. -Sit down.

Olek got me released.

Taking pictures in the street is forbidden now.

I spent the night on boards, but all ended well.

They even returned the camera. I deserve a medal.

-Have you got the photos? -Sure. A handsome guy, that major.

-You're fantastic. -As a woman, or a spy?

I prefer you as a woman.

-Where are the photos? -They'll be ready tomorrow.

-Tomorrow? -What?

I almost got caught, and all you care about is the photos!

I'm sorry. Great job, really.

And the contact point remains safe.

Thank you.

Get in! Faster!

There'll be no transport. I'm your lucky charm.

Ryszkowska, put the shitter down.

Get your stuff. You're off to transport.

Move it!

Quit staring.

I don't know about this.

-I do. -Will you get it?

-An ID for a job. -There's my boss.

Mr. Wende...

He's looking for a job.

-A Pole? -But honest.

-You know him? -I live with them. -I haven't

-had a desk job, but I can learn. -Did you hear that?

A desk job!

-Change, and to work! -Yes, sir.

Come on.

Impressive, huh?

It is.

The alarm was false.

-It's a good thing... -Quiet, I'm reading.

-Make some tea. -Me? Why me?

-We've got him. -Whom?

Your major Halbe is a gambler.

We've just received a report.

-Halbe goes to the casino? -Every Wednesday.

-Like clockwork. -What's his game?

We can ask.

No need.

I'll find out.

-You'll go to the casino? -Yes.

-It's risky. -There's no time for stakeouts.

-I'll find contacts. -Bravado.

Stemming from childhood?

A rival in the family? A brother maybe?

It's probably about the father.

-You keep proving... -Cut the psychology!

Yes or no?

Let the brass decide, I can't take responsibility.

I will have very solid papers.

I didn't get all that from papers.

I'll be right back.

You didn't get anything! My father's dead!

He might be the head of the Warsaw Abwehra cell.

Interesting. Why didn't you

report it officially,

-through a liaison? -I've got a plan.

I need your approval.

-What plan? -I ask permission for direct contact.

-You want to meet him. -Routine actions would take months.

You said the matter is urgent.

-Are you aware of the risk? -I am. But it's worth it.

And Margaret?

She's... sceptical.

I hope you know what you're doing.

-Thank you. -Alright.

Leave first.

Your father would've been proud.

Hello!

-We're closed. -I'm looking for the owner.

How can I help you?

-Danka sent me, about the job. -No...

I only hire actresses. It's good promotion.

I might even get Wanda Ryszkowska.

-Remember her? -Wanda won't work here,

-she's in Pawiak. -How sad.

You know her?

She's my daughter.

Why didn't you say so?

Madam... Here...

-sit down. -Thank you.

No breakfast today?

-I didn't realize cash is so heavy. -There.

-Mr. Wende asks for you. -Coming.

-That's it? -Yes.

Lock it.

Stay here.

-No, thanks. -Take it.

-Have you been here long? -Over six months.

How did you get the job? It's not easy.

My fiancée works here,

-in accounting. -I thought it's Germans only.

She's got a Kraut name, and she speaks Kraut,

her father taught German. But she's Polish.

We avoid each other here, 'cause...

the master race can't mix with the Untermenschen.

-Don't tell anyone. -I won't.

-Is there a lot of this stuff? -Why?

-Are you planning a heist? -Sure.

-What's up? -I need solid papers.

-How solid? -Abwehra-proof.

-They'll be checking me. -For one occasion?

No. They must believe I'm someone else.

-Think of something. -There's no 100% guarantee.

90?

I guarantee the quality, not the content.

If Abwehra goes into it, you'll be dining in Pawiak.

-What, then? -Tell them

It's impossible.

-I can't. -Why? -Because it's my idea.

Can you help me, as a friend?

-No, but Bronek can. -Why him?

Because you need an authentic ID, from a factory working for Germans.

To really be on their lists.

-But why Bronek? -His father owns the biggest

-foundry in Warsaw. -Thanks.

-I saved a place for you. -Hold it!

-Ryszkowska. -Present.

She's staying.

Take her.

Get in!

Move it!

Hi.

I thought you'd forgotten about me.

I need a favour. Get me a date with Celina.

Excuse me?

-I want to meet Celina. -Then go and tell her.

-It's business. -Is it?

-She's not with us. -She will be.

What for?

You don't need to know everything. I'll be waiting.

And two stamps, please.

Thank you.

-Excuse me... -Wladek?

-No. -Probably not,

but if it's you, I'll be round the corner.

How did it happen?

-They were recapturing me. -Czeslaw...

The same school.

-He often spoke about you. -Because I stole his girl.

-I'be trying to find him. -I've got to go.

Right,tempus fugit. Wait.

-Maybe you could help me. -With what?

I need someone to organize communications.

-You despised the army. -I remained a civilian.

I'm in the Civil Struggle leadership. Someone has to control

the army.

That's why I need independent communications with London.

-Do you know anyone? -No.

-I've been looking for two weeks. -I'll ask around.

Don't you get it? Mosler made you the janitor

-to turn us into slaves! -We're broke!

Romek is right. Janitors must cooperate with the Germans.

What about Lena? He knows everything about her!

He's staging it, it's just assumptions...

-That must be him. -I'll take it.

Hello, Mom.

-There... -Thank you.

Thanks for coming.

I can't imagine what business you had in mind. I've got a job.

-I'll explain. What will you drink? -Mineral water.

This table has been reserved.

-Would you mind? -Ask the lady.

-No problem. -Great.

Over here?

Guys!

So what job is it?

I want you to become my wife.

We must give them something.

-I couldn't. -You must.

-You have no choice. -Let's sit down for a minute.

I'm sorry, but... you should go.

We're expecting someone who can't see you here.

-Is everything alright? -Yes,

-why? -There's a problem with Mosler.

-With whom? -Sticky fingers.

Everybody's got problems. Go.

Nobody asked about Lena?

Like who?

I don't know. I'm just making sure.

No, everything is OK.

-Don't worry about us. -Thanks for the rings.

God bless you both.

Good bye.

Excuse me.

May I?

Open up!

Mr. Lipke, where can I... take a leak?

-Nowhere. Didn't he tell you? -He did, but I must.

I can't hold it for 3 hours.

I'll give your shoes a real good shine.

Please?

Come.

Down the corridor, on the right. Go.

-Thank you. -Make it quick!

Hi.

-Hi. -Thanks for coming.

-What's up? -There's this thing,

-only you can help me. -OK.

I need to be employed at your dad's.

It's not easy, for me.

I wouldn't ask but it's important.

-Can he be trusted? -Sure, in these matters.

-Well? -I'll set up a meeting.

...to the President,

the Chief Commander,

and my commander in the Union of Armed Struggle,

I shall obey orders, and I shall keep the secret

at any cost.

So help me God.

-So help me God! -You have joined the Polish Army

to fight the enemy for the liberation of our country.

It will be your duty to fight with arms in hand.

Victory shall be your prize. Treason is

punished by death.

Congratulations. You are now soldiers

of the Union of Armed Struggle.

At ease.

Leave one by one.

-A word, please. -Congratulations.

Thanks.

You look much better.

And I feel better. I need to ask you something.

What is it?

I'd like to work for the Civil Struggle.

-Excuse me? -Temporarily.

What could a military officer be doing in CS?

I'm to organize communications for the Government.

-I've been asked by... -You really want that?

-It's for my father's friend. -I understand, but...

you're busy with our banking plans,

you've just recovered... lt's a bit reckless.

But I'd like to try.

-Are you a communications expert? -No, but Janek

knows this skilful guy.

If you think you can hadle it...

Good morning.

-I need a favour. -What is it?

My daughter's in Pawiak,

-and I... -Wanda?

Although...

she was to be transported to Auschwitz yesterday.

I bribed a German, but our guys executed him.

Sister Jozefa has the transport lists. Wait here.

The list.

Tell me.

-She's not on the list. -God...

Thank you.

Good bye.

Come in!

Thank you.

Go.

Speak.

I've got nothing to say.

We...

don't need to... talk.

I expected gratitude.

You realize who took you off that transport, don't you?

-I didn't ask. -Don't be impudent!

Accept my terms or leave with the next transport.

I want to go back to my cell.

-What?! -Did she attack you?

He wants to rape me, help! You are a woman too.

The bitch is lying.

Who would stop me from raping you?

Should I discipline her?

Beat those lies out of her head.

I expected

your visit. We will give you documents stating

that you are employed here as a sales rep.

Thank you.

Except... it must look as if I worked here for a few years.

-Of course. Dated earlier. -Thank you.

Would you be kind enough to give something to my son?

Just a letter.

It's more important for me than this job is for you.

Thanks.

One...

two...

One...

two...

One...

two...

-Get up. -I can't.

Get up. That's for your

-rape stories. -I'm not lying.

I don't give a shit.

I can promise you one thing:

you won't leave this prison alive.

Get up, and practice... or I'll kill you on the spot!

One...

two...

Morning. Mr. Kopytko sent you?

-No names. -Chill, boss. I'm Kamil.

-Ryszard. -Ryszard?

-Smith, right? -You've got a problem?

I told you my real name, and you give me a "Ryszard".

Same as your Kopytko.

-I hear you can make a radio. -And other things.

What do you need?

To build a radio station.

-Range? -London.

Man...

Can you do it?

Sure, boss.

We ought to celebrate the beginning of our cooperation.

Yeah?

What do you suggest?

Coffee... and a biscuit.

I allowed myself to swap offices.

Do you accept my company?

-What faculty? -None. I learned myself.

A college, then?

Sure. 5 grades of primary school.

Pre-war. Word.

But to the point. How many watts,

-3 Wought to do it. -Yes.

You've got no idea, right?

-Can you help me? -To reach London

-we'll need about 18 W. -It'll be rady for...?

-Tomorrow. -Tomorrow?

I've already built such a transmitter, but...

I need quartz. The army ought to have it.

Write down what you need.

Why does she hate you so?

I don't know.

What did Schneider want?

Maybe you should've given in.

What?

You've got no choice.

I have to get out.

I have to get out.

in the next episode... -May I kiss the bride?

Let's get things straight. I'm not interested in flirting.

I'll be in touch. What will you do with the rose?

Take a look at him.

He was at the cafe with some guy.

And now the frog, back and forth.
