Right.

Well? What’s going on?

What are they doing? They’ll be here any minute.

Make yourself invisible. Why?

One for me!

Come on! - I’m doing it!

Again!

You can do it! - Well done!

- Brock? It’s Brock! - It’s Brock.

I need to get closer. Hang in there, mate.

- Brock, we need you. - Light!

I’ve got to stop the bleeding. Stay calm. Stay very calm.

Press down hard. Harder. Hang in there!

Hey, he’ll bleed to death on us otherwise. - Harder.

Mrs Helfers, what a pleasure.

Mrs Luxemburg. - Come in.

Is she here?

No, but I think Dr Völcker will be here soon.

Ah.

I’ve baked doughnuts.

My sister’s recipe.

Yes, N, as in North Pole,

Natalia and, of course, ‘Luxenburg’.

Oh, really?

I didn’t know that. - It doesn’t really matter, though.

It’s just that our grandfather, on our father’s side – one of

the wealthiest merchants in the Kingdom of Poland – is still

turning in his grave today, because his name isn’t right any more.

I’ll pour myself another one.

I can’t keep her here for hours on end.

Tell me about the family or about Liebknecht.

I don’t know anything about him,

except that he was a daredevil.

That’s her, it must be her.

Mr Katelbach? Mr Litten?

What sort of event is this?

Who are you?

That must be Dr Völcker.

Come along, Mrs Helfers, we’re expecting you in the parlour.

Under no circumstances do I wish to be part of this farce.

Let us explain. - It was the only option.

You are two highly influential figures.

And open-minded. - Quiet now!

Hello?

Please.

Please. Come in. - Let me, please.

- Yes. - After you.

Mrs Völcker, what a pleasure.

Comrade, if I may.

Comrade Völcker, of course.

Is Mrs Helfers here? - Yes.

Please, come in.

May I? - No.

Where’s Mrs Helfers?

I’ll go… There she is.

She’s no Luxemburg.

I know.

All right then.

But I am Elisabeth Behnke.

You can insult me and condemn me, but

everything I do and have done is done

with a pure heart and sincere intent.

After all, we are united by the same goal.

The enemy is on the verge of its greatest victory.

Only by joining forces can it still be stopped.

You can now shape the fate of this country

or, out of misplaced pride,

abandon our beloved country to its doom.

“People do not make their history of their own free will,

but they do make it themselves.”

Brilliant!

With a quote from Luxemburg.

World-class! You should start a political party.

They talk to one another.

Bloody hell. Do you have another one? - No, I’ve run out too.

I’ll take care of that.

Hold on, whilst you’re on your way out, I’ll write a shopping list.

That might take a while in there.

You dictate, I’ll write it down.

Berliner Morgenpost! Berliner Morgenpost!

Detective Superintendent, You wanted to speak to me?

Yes, Miss Ritter.

I’m expecting your report by lunchtime.

Which report? The report on the Forster case

and the disappearance of suspended Inspector Rath.

Put me through to the Identification Unit.

We should close this case as soon as possible.

Yes, Gennat speaking.

One moment. Excuse me.

Rath!

Rath, Gereon!

Report for duty! Here, take this.

Here.

Come with me.

I reckon you and I will have to do the dirty work now.

Come in.

My report, Detective Superintendent.

How can you simply drop this case?

You taught me that we mustn’t let anyone interfere

with the way we do our job.

You drummed it into us: we mustn’t treat a director

any differently from a homeless person.

You spoke of human dignity, which is inviolable.

Now you’re sitting behind your desk

and letting one of your best officers down?

At the same time, they’re putting pressure on Böhm because

his investigations are putting the Chancellor at risk.

What on earth is the matter with you, for heaven’s sake?

What’s this?

A public prosecutor called Dresse has been in touch regarding the medical records.

He’s in Berlin.

Apparently, he’s trying to get a visa for the United States.

You’ve been in touch with him…

I’ve only spoken to him on the phone, nothing more.

He’s going to meet you. I’ve made a note of the place and time.

If you’ll excuse me now, I’ve got work to do.

Thank you.

Surely you realise you’ve backed the wrong horse.

All I can see at the moment is that you’re trying

to win me back to your side, my dear Mr Schleicher.

But Hitler cannot be controlled.

Yes, it may seem that way,

but money can control anyone.

Others have already fallen for that fallacy.

Hitler is an enemy of capital.

You’ve been Reich Chancellor before. You had your chance.

This time, Hindenburg followed Hitler, not you.

That’s how it is in a democracy.

Democracy. Nyssen, just listen to me.

What we need is a right-wing nationalist

pact against Hitler, involving you and the

leading industrialists, the German

Nationalists, sensible men from the NSDAP, and the military.

And with my money? Yes, with your money.

I promise you, it’s the best investment.

That sounds interesting.

Congratulations, Director, a bull’s-eye.

Former Reich Chancellor.

What is it? Your wife asks you to come and see her.

She has news of the utmost importance.

Please excuse me.

What is it?

I’ve got hold of Minister Göring.

And?

It’s going to work.

When? On 27 February. He’s definitely confirmed.

What if he doesn’t turn up again, stands us up yet again?

This is the first private invitation he’s

accepted since becoming Reich Chancellor.

What did that old Papen say?

“I’ll pin him against the wall until he squeals.”

Poor old Schleicher.

I’m afraid it’s not going to work out between us.

What on earth has she given me here…

Ah, potatoes.

Can’t we come to an agreement?

No, we’d already discussed this candidate.

We hadn’t discussed him. – Yes, we did!

No, we’re socialists. We can make compromises.

This is never going to work!

We’ll adjourn the item on the list of

candidates – and move on to… – Number four.

Measures to stabilise democracy.

Thank you.

Let’s imagine that a coalition government

comprising the SPD and the KPD … - Hang on.

It’s our turn to make the first proposal.

We agreed to take it in turns. - Correct.

Right. So, point one.

A motion to ban the NSDAP as a party hostile to the constitution.

That’s our point one as well. – See, it works after all.

Point two.

Nationalisation of all corporations supporting the NSDAP.

The Quandts, the Krupps, the Nyssens.

Carry on.

Point three.

Restructuring of the economic system and the

political order along Soviet lines. - Never!

We’re committed to a democratic economic model.

Which nobody wants, because nobody believes in it!

That’s why you’re losing votes with every election!

Because governing is harder work than being in opposition!

Ah! - You have to make compromises.

You’re driving people into the arms of the NSDAP!

Outrageous!

Quiet, ladies and gentlemen, we can’t go on like this.

Now pull yourselves together!

Stop whingeing! This place is a right mess!

We can’t go on like this.

If you put your own narrow interests

before the greater good, you’ll go under.

And rightly so.

People will say that the Left failed

to stop Hitler when it had the chance!

Because you’re just as stubborn as your party leaders.

Both of you!

- But I … - If you say anything

now, you’ll be proving my point.

- Where were we? - Three.

Point four.

Mr Reich Chancellor.

Mein Führer.

Mr Hitler,

I’m glad you managed to make it to our house after all.

We have a lot to discuss.

She rang him.

We have a lot to discuss,

my dear friend and engraver.

Your wife rang this new gentleman.

You’re letting others take the reins.

On the contrary, I’m taking them back into my own hands; you can see that, can’t you?

Helga is supporting me and I’m very grateful to her for that.

Dear Adolf …

Dear Adolf Hitler, we have a lot to discuss.

Calm down.

Have a drink.

What do you want from me? I can tell you exactly that.

I want Private Hitler’s medical records

from his stay in Pasewalk in November 1918.

I know nothing about that.

I doubt that.

I took Dr Forster to Paris.

Not because of a file, but because he needed protection.

From people like you.

You can waste your time

and beat anything out of me.

But what you’re looking for, you won’t find in me.

Fine.

Then I wish you the best of luck in the new German Reich,

as a personal enemy of Reich Chancellor Adolf Hitler.

Langenberger! Camp North!

New arrivals, line up here! - Two more from Cell 12.

Everyone present.

Line up in a row! - Get out now!

Come on! - Heymann?

Jakob! - Cell eight, move.

Katelbach, change direction. Come with us now. Come on.

Faster.

Come on!

Everyone!

What am I supposed to do with you now? - Make a break for it.

Stay with me and wait for my signal.

Brock!

Go! - Yes.

Quickly!

Mandel!

Eckert!

Müllensiefen!

Heymann!

Heymann.

I’ll take the older one, you take the young one with the rifle.

Remember, on my command.

- Get ready! - Is everyone in?

Quick, get on your horses!

Czerwinski, Henning, let’s go!

Come on, let’s set off.

Stop! Show your papers!

All right.

Henning! Czerwinski!

Stop!

Police, get out of the car!

Get out of here! Hey!

I’m sorry. You can’t… That’s not on!

Someone’s going to have to tell

me where my clients have gone!

Call me back immediately if you find out anything, understood?

Thanks!

Where on earth is Katelbach?

What’s going on here?

Bloody hell…

Henning!

Henning! Stop the car!

What does that nutter want?

Stop right there!

What an idiot.

Now.

Matern!

Shut up!

Matern!

Grenadier, pull yourself together!

What was that?

Don’t move! I’m going to shoot now!

Shoot! Shoot, lad!

Your gun, quick.

Who are you?

The potatoes. Potatoes, I mean.

Always take the floury ones.

That way, no one’ll suspect you.

Are you sure?

Do you have a better idea?

Well, I’ll pass that on.

Good luck, lads.

Mrs Behnke, Katelbach and

Heymann should be taken to a camp.

He died in my arms.

You’re injured.

Let me help you.

And are there more camps outside the town?

Yes. We suspect there’s one to the north, just beyond the town.

How many inmates were there? The more information I

have, the sooner I can make a difference in court.

There were twelve men in our cell.

In the whole block, perhaps 40 cells.

Some of them will have been double-occupied.

Ms Völcker, Ms Helfers …

it was a matter close to Mr Katelbach’s heart that

your two parties should come together on this matter.

So I’d like to ask you to come up with a solution quickly.

Would that be possible?

Women for Hitler.

Women for Hitler.

Lotte? Hi there!

Oh, Doris.

Off work already?

So, how are you?

I’ve got a new job. Women for Hitler.

It’s all down to us now.

That one? No, that’s voluntary work.

No, something proper. At the radio station.

Congratulations.

Yes, things are looking up for Germany.

I can see you’re not convinced yet.

No, I’m not. Not at all.

You’re missing the bigger picture.

I felt the same way at first.

But believe me, you’ll soon see things differently.

The Führer is leading us all back home.

I can find my way there on my own, and right now, at that.

Your rejection, that comes from reason.

But it’s about feelings, about security and love.

Love is the most important thing.

Yes, you might be right about that. Yes, that’s true, Lottchen.

Love, love for Germany.

Doris, even if you’re talk nonsense, I still love you.

Take care. You too, Lottchen.

Sooner or later, you too will come

to believe in a national revival.

Charlotte?

Charlotte.

Gereon.

Döbrich.

Who’s that?

Where have you been?

Who are these men? Where have you been?

Charlotte. Gereon, where have you been?

No word! Nothing at all!

Stop it! I was worried!

Just listen to me now!

No!

You want to blow something up and you’re making me an accomplice,

Without saying a word to me!

I’ve had enough! Charlotte.

I’m so fed up that I can’t trust you.

How do you know this man?

He works at the castle.

We’ve got to get out of here.

Charlotte, please. We can’t stay here.

Where are we supposed to go?

Police, open up!

Yes. Has something happened?

The neighbours say there was a noise.

Here? Well, yes…

There was a bang, after all. And a clattering like mad.

I’ve run a bath. The water always splashes so loudly.

Would you like to come in for a moment? I’ll make us some coffee.

No, no, young lady. Just take your bath in peace.

A shooting looks rather different, ladies and gentlemen, please.

Come on then! See you later.

Where’s Dr Forster?

In Paris.

Arrested? No.

They only caught me.

Why didn’t you ever get in touch?

I did. Several times.

Charlotte, I...
