Six B.

Third floor.

Is this the third floor?

That's six B?

Frau Kola?

Yes.

Is Wolfgang here?

No, he's at work.

At work already?

Yes, he went in early this morning.

I see.

Do you know this gentleman?

No, Albert Hulz?

Maybe this one might jog your memory.

No.

Frau, I think you're lying to me.

Don't move, Sit down.

Sit down now!

Where is he going?

You're lying.

I'm not lying.

Tell me the truth.

Don't, wait...

Just tell me the truth.

There you are.

Been looking for you.

Yeah, I borrowed your keys, sorry.

Where do these go?

Former client's over there.

Not now, you're late.

For Heinrich Mohns inspirational lecture

on loyalty and patriotism in the workplace.

It's what makes this job so rewarding.

You're keeping the minutes, Mr. I-Taught-Myself-Shorthand.

Helmuth, Berna.

Ellie

Thanks for covering for me.

Mohns has me presenting with him today.

He tends to speak quickly and kind of run on sentences,

so you'll have to keep up.

Don't worry about punctuation, I'll correct all that later.

Just make sure to get all the words.

Can you do that?

I think so.

Alright.

Here we go.

Good luck.

The slightest whisper of defeatism

against the Reich will drag down this entire department.

Even a disorganized desk, a poorly kept filing system,

is detrimental to this office and to the Reich.

I've asked Elli to address this.

Miss Kluge.

Thank you, Herr Mohns.

As mentioned, I will be discussing the topic of orderliness

within the workplace.

Do you--

Is that today's newspaper?

The Führer, in a speech given this past January,

proclaimed, "The year 1941 will be, I am convinced,

the historical year of a great European new order."

I understand he is speaking of a political new order.

However, I would encourage each and every one of us

to implement this new order within to our workspace.

The word order comes from the Latin word ordenum,

from the accusative ordo.

Thanks for bailing me out.

I forgot to bring the article.

Yeah, no, that was nothing.

Glad to help.

Good.

These just came in this morning.

Look at these.

These were turned in a week and a half ago.

Why are we just getting them now?

I, uh, I think--

All right, take him downstairs.

I'll be there shortly.

So instead of gun runners,

we're worried about leaflets now?

It's words on paper.

So is Karl Marx's manifesto.

Do you know the country without freedom?

The country of terror and tyranny?

Yes, you know it well, but are afraid to talk about it.

It is Germany. Hitler Germany.

Those first leaflets three weeks ago,

the 14th was on Lonsdraza.

On a weekend.

That is correct, and on Monday, 842.

So what, they knock off work on Friday and Saturday?

Put our leaflets together?

Red ones, maybe communist?

Yeah.

Oh, maybe.

This one, Thursday, April 17th,

taken into evidence 9-16.

No, wait, wait, that first one on the 14th.

Yeah.

There was a bombing, that night.

They're going out during the air raids.

Through their unscrupulous terror tactics,

they are making you into spineless puppets

to do their bidding.

Do not let your free will,

the most valuable thing you posess be taken away.

Germans, arise!

Make your decision before it's too late!

Well, who's running your office down there?

I drove all over Hammerbrook last night.

Yes, during an air raid.

Didn't see a single one of your men, which I've requested twice.

And now I'm looking at a little red leaflet

which calls the Führer

"the great deceiver of the people."

Tonight then, good. Heil Hitler.

Julius!

Now, see how this S, the sharp S,

it's an uppercase B that's been typed over with a P.

It's an American typewriter, or British.

And here, look.

The lowercase T skips every time.

See how in "Hitler" it double hits.

It has the same thing down here and here.

It's a fingerprint.

...deceived by the platitudes

of your authoritarian leader.

A lie is a lie, no matter how many times

he says it's the truth.

Will you stand up against a dictator

who brutally invades his democratic neighbors?

And this concludes our broadcast for this evening.

Tune in for more of the truth tomorrow night at 10 p.m.

And until then, V for victory.

Can you keep a secret?

Where'd you get this?

Found it.

Presentation isn't much, but...

I thought the writing was quite brilliant.

Found it where?

In my typewriter.

Well, come on!

You coming?

Where are we going?

It is past curfew.

Did you know Mendelssohn was 15

when he wrote his first symphony?

Well that explains everything.

What are you doing with those leaflets?

Getting rid of them.

In mailboxes, phone booths, party announcement boards.

- Why? - Because I can't write music.

Again with the music.

I went up there.

To his empty bedroom.

What was left of it.

Salomon wanted to be a teacher.

And those leaflets you found in your typewriter

will change all that?

A man finds one in his mailbox.

Reads it. Can't get it out of his head.

Passes it to a friend at work

who passes it to another,

- and another. - And?

And enough people find out what's really going on

and stand up.

Put an end to it.

I'm in.

We can change things.

Not with guns, but... with these.

You know what happens if they catch you.

Do what is right, let the consequence follow.

Right. I love that song.

For Salomon.

How many do you want?

I don't know, 20.

We won't get caught.

Give me 25.

Go.

Wait, here. Right now?

Yeah, right now.

You thought punching Rolfi was fun.

Wait till you try this.

Yes, I'm calling to see

if you still own the Remington

we serviced for you...

April 14th, on the corner of Monstrasse

and the Alvesterre.

These are still in Hambleville, they're from 17th.

Our records say last November the 15th...

Hello.

Hello.

Found eight more typewriter shops outside Altena.

138 British and American models from those,

we're still testing.

Only another 120 to go, give or take.

Elli!

Good morning!

Morning.

Careful.

You never know who's watching.

Thanks, I...

Now, it's official.

Official...

So, what are you thinking?

I think it's quicker to get along there,

to get these streets.

Do you want to hit Süder Street?

It's on your way home.

Sure.

Hello, Karl.

You're home late.

You're out past curfew.

Am I? Must have lost track of time.

Where were you?

What do you want, Rolfi?

I want you to tell me where you were.

Heil Hitler.

Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!

You go that way!

Erwin!

Erwin! This way!

It's not me.

It absolutely is you.

Well, look who's home.

Oh, come here, sit down.

How's my boy?

Good.

Any Hoodlums out past curfew?

Besides you two?

Not too many.

Mostly just a lot of running around.

And your mother tells me you're giving a sermon tomorrow, at church?

Yeah, the bishop asked me to say a few words.

Do not love public speaking.

You and me both.

Maybe I'll take along this time.

All right, then maybe I'd better figure out what I'm going to say.

Night.

Good night.

Good luck.

"Brothers and sisters.

I've been asked to say a few words about finding peace

through Jesus Christ.

So... um...

Jesus was a revolutionary.

We like to think of Him as always being kind

and loving and filled with grace.

And He was.

But the scriptures say He was full of grace and truth.

He said what needed to be said.

He stood up, but He did it peacefully.

Where Barabbas fought with swords, He fought with words.

Then said Jesus unto him,

put up again thy sword into it's place,

for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.

He was rejected by the Romans and the Rabbis,

the Pharisees and Sadducees,

even by most of those who knew Him.

But He did what was right and let the consequence follow.

May we be filled with grace... and truth.

And when the moment comes for us to stand up, may we stand.

In Jesus' name, amen."

Amen!

Thank you, Helmuth, for your remarks.

We will now hear from Sister Marie Zommerfeld,

who will speak to us--

Can I borrow your keys again?

Woah!

Let me help you.

Thank you!

Helmuth.

Here, you missed one.

Thank you.

Better watch where you're going.

Absolutely. Yes.

Woah, nice!

How was your day at the office?

Interesting.

So, where to tonight?

Ah, change of plan.

I've got some more typing to do.

Goodbye, Helmuth.

See you tomorrow.

Right. I'll see you.

Who was that?

Just a girl... uh... colleague.

Just a girl?

What girl?

She's your colleague?

What's a colleague?

Seriously?

You don't know her, okay?

Nice.

So, tomorrow night.

We're ready.

(speaking in French Au revoir mes amis

Your French is great, Karl.

Better than yours.

Bye.

- Bye. - Bye.

...only one small ray of light suffices

to prove their deceitfulness.

To prove that, though Nazi propaganda

is often crafted right down to the last detail,

it seldom coincides even in one point with the facts.

In conclusion, the former deputy Führer...

Where'd it come from?

I asked, where did the wireless come from!

Are you trying to get us all killed? Is that it?

Put your mother in a prison camp? Get up.

I said stand up!

I don't know what you're trying to do, you stupid boy!

I want you out of the house.

You can go to your grandmother's.

I really don't care.

And not a word to your mother.

Is that clear?

...he will not rest in turning his plans

for imperialistic world conquest into actions.

This is the BBC, with our V for victory programming.

For our German listeners, the truth.

not the propaganda fed to you by Hitler and his...

He's upstairs.

Thank you, Mama.

I brought some of your things.

What happened? He won't tell me.

Look at me.

It'll sting for a bit.

Looks a lot worse than it is.

I brought you the typewriter.

So you could keep up with your church work.

If you want to.

Just until things calm down.

He means well.

This is all just new to him.

Helmuth.

You alright?

Yes.

I saw what was on that paper. The red one.

Do you have more?

No.

Good.

Hey, Helmuth.

Let's go.

We should just go up.

We should go.

Are you going to talk to me?

What happened?

We're not going to talk about this.

No.

Between husband and wife, we talk about things.

No secrets.

All right, then.

Why don't you tell me why he looks nothing like his brother?

Why they so completely different?

They're nothing alike.

That got me thinking.

Among other things.

So, I did some digging.

Who was Karl Oswald Vater?

Because he's listed as the

father on Helmuth's birth certificate.

And you were still married to your first husband at the time.

We were estranged.

So?

So we do have secrets.

Is that why you beat my son?

That has nothing to do with it.

Now, I'm not going to ask you any more questions.

And you're aren't either.

And I don't want you going to see him.

Not at church.

And not at your mother's.

All right?

Hitler knows we're beginning to see through him.

The suppressor of free nations,

the murderer of millions.

The Europe suppressed by Gestapo terror

must not remain unatoned.

A determined deed can still rescue you

and your country from the abyss to which Hitler

has led you with his lies.

Do you want to tolerate having the happiness of your lives

taken from you, and your children

cheated out of the most beautiful years of their lives?

Do you want to tolerate this?

You know what I like about you?

I like that you ate all your dinner tonight.

Even your green beans.

That makes mama happy.

You know what else I like about you?

I like that you're the kind of girl who loves all kinds of animals.

Dogs, wolves, and bats.

All kinds.

Another one.

Another one?

Alright.

You know what else I like about you? I like that--

Let's go.

Anne?

Max! ...

Lisl!

Lisl? Breathe!

Lisl...
