Order no. 16 issued by the Ministry of the Interior of the People's Republic of Hungary

As a result of counter-revolutionary events,

certain members of personnel have displayed behavior

unbefitting of communists and their allegiance to the counter-revolution

has rendered them unsuitable for employment

by the Ministry of the Interior.

Due to the above, the full appraisal of all personnel is required

as well as a reduction in staff numbers,

which must be completed no later than December 31, 1957.

What did the newspapers write last Christmas?

The buses will run until 6 pm from Wednesday.

Drinking is allowed but only at home.

Why is there so little soap and washing powder?

Thousands queue for cigarettes.

Will there be unemployment?

When will the no. 6 tram start again?

A year has passed since then

and people are once again preparing for Christmas...

Comrade Jung.

You didn't come to the residents meeting.

Is there a problem with my students? Are they upsetting the residents?

I wanted to invite you over for fish soup tonight.

I make it spicy.

I'm sorry but I'm working.

On Christmas Eve?!

That's right. Happy holidays, Mrs. Egri.

Happy holidays.

But the festivities are not only for the children.

Our shops have plenty of gifts for older shoppers...

- Comrade Jung? - Oan I help you?

I'd Like to study German.

I'm sorry but I'm too busy.

- They recommended you. - I can't take any more students.

- I'II pay weII. - I'm sorry but I still can't.

How did you hear about me?

From the newspaper.

I don't advertise.

Then it must have been from a friend. Goodbye.

Goodbye.

- Happy Christmas! - Happy Christmas, Comrade Jung!

We have messages

from refugee Hungarians for their families back at home.

And now for the messages...

The first is in code and it goes like this.:

"Come sweetheart, come"

This goes to Miskolc

and from Uszu to the two old girls,

who says all is well in England.

Peter wants the lame cook in Si�fok

to know that he is well and in America.

To no. 25 in Tatab�nya,

Bilux says he"s in England.

Tomi wants Nandin to know

that Panci has arrived at the in-laws.

December 24, 1957.

Relax!

I bought the books Like they told me.

Grammar-book,

dictionary,

another dictionary,

work book...

Do you know who I am?

The German teacher.

And do you know what you have to do?

Learn German, no...?

Only joking.

Do you Live here?

I thought it would be some ministry building

but then I saw it's an apartment building..

This is an undercover apartment, Comrade Radnai.

We rent it so that we can meet in relaxed circumstances.

lt obviously wouldn"t be good

if your colleagues saw you walking into a ministry building

Obviously

What would they think?

They wouldn't think I was having German Iessons.

When were you recruited?

November 22.

Avery convincing comrade.

For patriotic reasons?

Have I seen any of yourfiIms?

The Iast one was a SziIv�si adaptation

with Ruttkai...

I can see that you haven't had the chance to travel abroad.

That must irritate you...

I won an award in Locarno and I couldn't accept it in person.

Do you hope it wiII be different now?

Do you hope you'll be able to take revenge on a few of your colleagues?

Because if you do, you're in the wrong place

I hope that the time wiII come when I can concentrate soIeIy on my films

Your code name wiII be Pudovkin.

You'll type your reports under that name

and bring them to me once a week and I wiII forward them to the ministry.

Couldn't it be Fellini?

Fellini is already taken.

Did the convincing comrade teach you how to write a report?

In the third person singular, one copy

and to differentiate between the conscious enemy and the mistaken.

Excellent!

Hands up!

You idiot!

Happy Christmas!

Reports from week 50.

My timetable forweek 51.

''11 am - Flea, 12 - Priest.''

This is London calling.

Good morning ladies and gentlemen...

''5 pm - supper with the Markos.''

Janka's gone to a Iot of trouble

You busy?

I've got a stack of reports to write.

- And I've got to refresh the agent Iist... - Andris,

you can refresh it another time

It's Christmas!

5 o'clock..

- and don't be Iate! - I'II be there.

Oh, I nearly forgot this. Janka sent it.

Thanks.

HeIIo.

- HeIIo. - HeIIo.

Happy Christmas, Dad!

They reckon they found it at a dog pound somewhere in Moscow.

What breed?

Some kind of mongrel

It's got two big ears and a spotty face...

About this big.

And is it up there all alone?

Yeah. In orbit.

I don't envy it.

Good morning, Comrade Lieutenant-Colonel.

Could you be more obvious?

"5 pm- supper with the Markos."

Janka"s gone to a lot of trouble.

You busy?

l"ve got a stack of reports to write.

- And l"ve got to refresh the agent list... - Andris,

you can refresh it another time.

lt"s Christmas

Comrade Jung, l"m sorry, l hurried.

My mother isn"t well.

l"ll start right away.

- Sound? - Working.

In accordance with order no 16, 1957 issued

by the Ministry of the Interior of the Peoples' Republic of Hungary,

we wiII now commence secret agent Andras Jung's test.

Present are P�I Mark� -test officer, Ferenc Doh�ny - technician and...

Emil KuIcs�r.

Emil KuIcs�r.

Emil KuIcs�r.

- Emil? - Emil

Emil KuIcs�r invigilator.

Let's start.

...noodle soup, turkey

with boiled potatoes, mashed potatoes, rice,

pickles and cucumber salad

Everyone ate the soup except Patai.

Tobias..

ordered boiled potatoes,

Patai and MoIn�rhad rice, Fekete mash. They aII ate salad

The turkey was very tasty and they served it with little mushrooms.

The dessert was...

Who's the gourmet?

Codename Flea A Iiterary foot soldier.

He's reporting on the Patai circle

And the one at 9 o'clock?

The director?.

Do you want me to rewind?

Later.

...and was there for 5 minutes.

l don"t know if he met anyone in there

but his hands were wet when he came back.

Patai and Molnar went out for a cigarette after the main course

and l didn't hear their conversation.

They smiled when they came in and slapped each other on the back.

There was no mention of politics at the table.

We talked about the food and the weather

and Moln�r made one mention...

...of the female genitalia.

PRIEST

There's no point you protecting Father Lupics!

But he is a priest!

That means nothing...

Comrade Jung

It's like...

...me asking you to betray a fellow officer.

- Would you do it? - We have an agreement, Father.

There's no need to remind me.

We're understanding of your invaIid mother...

Comrade Jung, I'm on your side.

I sometimes have my doubts.

Because l don't understand

why you are interested in the private life of a village priest.

There must be more important things.

Father Lupics is no counter-revolutionary.

- He's never seen a gun in his Iife. - Father,

the counter-revolution isn't only fought with guns.

The bishop's left. Anyone else?

No.

ShaII we go?

May I remind you that it's only 1 o'clock?

I agree.

The ruIes state that surveillance should Iast at Ieast 12 hours.

Who do you think wrote those rules?

Sorry, Comrade Mark�, but it's still a rule..

Someone's coming.

Is there no one waiting for you at home?

It's a woman.

Who is she?

An agent?

I've got no idea.

These are all Jung's female agents.

She isn't one of them.

I didn't touch a thing.

Cake?

They've plum jam in them.

You're an angel

Nice?

What's this?

A double season ticket

to the National Theater for 1958.

You'll have to go with me now.

Thanks.

I know we said you'd sleep here tonight but somethings come up.

Are you throwing me out?

No. It's just that... I've got work to do.

- On Christmas Eve? - I'm sorry.

Where are you going?

If you're busy, I'II find someone to spend Christmas with!

Don't do this, Eva!

I'II walk up to someone on the street!

No, no, wait!

Wait, do you hear? Eva!

This is the Iast time. I promise.

- Have you got kids? A wife? - No!

�va, no!

Trust me

l love you

You're a fool!

This is Radio Free Europe, the voice of free Hungary...

The girl's Ieaving.

TeII Varga to foIIow her.

I'm going.

- Csap�. - This is Jung.

- Can we talk now? - Have you got what I asked for?.

- Yes. - How many?

Just one.

- Is she on it? - She"s on it...

And?

lt"s pretty... surprising.

Put it in an envelope and take it to the arranged place. I'll pick it up in an hour.

Okay.

Who was that?

I don't know.

Wind it back.

- Csap�. - This is Jung.

No, to the dialing.

- Can I borrow that? - Of course...

- Sorry! - I'II get it.

Stop.

Sorry.

And a pencil.

Here.

And again.

Stop.

362-124.

362-124. Imre Osap�, teacher at the Music Academy.

- Is that who Jung called? - Does he work for us?

Codename Music Man. Failed attempt to defect.

He reports on SzaboIcsi.

TeII me the address.

Comrade Mark�, can I come, too?

- What did you say your name is? - KuIcs�r. Emil Kulcs�r.

You're driving.

Any news?

Varga caIIed. He foIIowed the woman on the bus to BIaha Square.

She went into a building there. He's waiting for orders.

- Should I drive? - I've got a chauffeur.

I'II caII you.

121-445.

- Who's the woman, Comrade Mark�? - Drive.

- Did you know about Jung's affair?. - Keep your eyes on the road.

According to the rules personal visitors...

are not allowed in undercover apartments...

without prior permission

Are you raising your daughter on your own?

I saw the drawing.

- She's caIIed Panni. - Is she in hospital?

You got this from the drawing?

From your face.

Tense. Nervy.

I'm always Like this. I'm a nervy type...

- Turn. - Thank you, I can see.

Panni is ill a Iot IateIy. She's got whooping cough.

- What happened to Gyimesi? - He called in sick.

Why wasn't I told?

I only knew this morning.

Green.

It's a great honor to serve next to the Comrade Lieutenant-OoIoneI.

- When you're not standing in, what do you do? - I teach.

- At the Political Academy? - Yes.

And what do you teach?

- You amongst other things. - No!

Yes!

I've just set my students essays on Comrade Mark�:

the time in Spain, your time as a prisoner of war, you injury...

Is it true that Stalin met you at the airport

when they exchanged you for that French officer?.

We're here to see Imre Csap�.

And who are you?

Are you reaIIy Jung's father?.

Why did they send you?

So I can Iearn.

You already know the first rule, don't you?

Keep my mouth shut.

You just sit, observe and Ieave the evaluation to me.

Jung is my best man.

If he's having an affair with a woman, there's a reason

and it's not Iove.

It's me. What's happening with Jung?

He"s just left.

How much time have we got Ieft?

About 40 minutes.

We're hurrying.

- Doh�ny. -We've got the photograph. We need a copy.

- Now? - 20 minutes.

lmpossible.

- We have to get there before Jung. - Okay, hang on...

87 Baross Street.

Agent?

Civilian. Be discrete.

Thanks.

And, Feri...

Find out which hospital KuIcs�r's daughter's in.

- KuIcs�r's daughter?. - She"s got whooping cough.

- I'm just closing - We'll help you.

See?

Beria.

- Sorry? - Beria met me at the airport. I never met Stalin

So, how much Ionger?.

- I'II take that. - Don't touch it! You'll burn your hand!

That's fine. Thank you.

Would you go out? Out!

Be quick because I have to buy my grandson a gun.

- What? - A toy gun. For Christmas

We'll teII you when we're done.

Where do have to take it? Where's the drop-off?

- I don't know. - Think hard!

I can't teII you.

Where do you have to Ieave the envelope?

- Jung'II kiII me! - Are you scared of Jung or me?

Jung... He's a madman.

You can kiII me but you won't get anything out of me...

No, no, wait!

Let me go! I'II teII you everything!

- Comrade Mark�! - Let me go!

- Comrade Mark�! - Let me go!

I'II tell you everything!

Danube! Down by the Danube!

By the railway bridge!

- Hello? - Send Vigh over.

Tell him to bring a bandage and to clean Csap� up.

And tell him to bring a toy gun.

The State Protection Authority was disbanded Iast December

but Comrade K�d�r secretly organized for the new

- Political Investigations Department to take all personnel - R�kosi's men.

They have to pass a test.

Yes,

the K�d�rtest. The subjects can't know about the test, can they?

The point is that they don't know.

Comrade Mark�, do you think there is any point to these tests?

I could think of better things to do at Christmas

Look, there's the barrel!

We'd better hurry!

The tin! Give it to me!

Here!

Comrade Mark�, there's another barreI!

Now what?

Hurry, Comrade Mark�!

He's coming!

Comrade Mark�, quickly!

Hurry!

He's there! I can see!

Behind the tree!

CORVIN LANE

What's your relationship like with Jung?

Close?

With an officer?.

We talk about popular music.

He knows that I play the piano.

I invited him to a Bart�k recital a couple of weeks ago.

I played Rhapsody no. 1.

And some say it wasn't too bad...

Did Jung go?

I was more surprised than anybody.

My cellist, Fanni, was ill that day

and she suggested her roommate, a certain Eva G�ti.

Jung asked me to introduce him to her after the concert.

He wanted to congratulate her.

I told Fanni and that's how it happened.

Did you know they've been seeing each other since?

They make a nice couple They go well together.

Did Jung suspect the girl?

He never said as much but...

when we met last week, he asked me to help him.

What did he want?

For me to ask Fanni about the girl.

Who she is, where she came from...

Did you learn anything?

Everything,

but the champagne supper cost me a fortune...

Eva tries to get into the Music Academy every year

but they won't take her because she's a class alien.

Do you know why she's on the B Iist?

She took part in the counter-revolution

They caught her but soon let her go. She looked like a IittIe fish

but if they'd seen the photo, they'd have known she wasn't.

Not at aII...

Eva G�ti fought at Corvin Lane and killed secret police officers.

Secret police just Like you.

Nothing... He didn't say a word.

What do you think?

He's in trouble Andras Jung is in trouble

Right in the middle of his test, when he's being watched,

he learns that his lover is a counter-revolutionary

or even worse, an enemy agent.

The question is what will he do with this information?

No, the question is what will we do with it?

We'll keep watching him.

And I'll keep my mouth shut.

He's drawn the curtains.

What's happening?

I've got no idea.

Comrade Mark�, how well do you know Andras Jung?

I was a recruiter and I traveled the country looking for talented kids.

I found Andris in R�cegrespuszta.

He didn't belong to anyone, he had no one

but he was very interested in our work.

He had a lot of ambition.

I see.

I brought him up to Budapest, clothed him and fed him.

He worked with me in the department in his last year at school

That's when we were ordered to set the undercover apartments up.

There was to be a whole network of them like in Moscow.

Andris agreed to join the top-secret staff

and live for his work for years if need be.

Like a monk.

But what if the monk falls in love?

- What's that sound? - He's taken the phone off the hook.

''Maximum 200 meters''

What was that?

He's found the bug.

- How? - He regularly checks the telephone

Why doesn't he switch it off?

- He's realized - What?

What's he realized?

He's coming over.

He's coming over?.

He's got a gun!

We've got to disappear. Call Vigh now!

- He's not picking up. - Where is that idiot?!

He came up for Csap� to take him home.

Fuck!

Don't cry. It'll get better.

It's not your hand..

- Don't let anyone in! - Why, what's going on?

Stop!

I'm fine.

What's happening?

Open the door!

Go!

- Good evening. - Who are you Iooking for?.

Who Iives in the corner-flat on the third?

No one. It's empty.

I saw movement.

It's being decorated.

You can't come in!

Young man!

Young man!

Stop!

What the hell was that?

We're always the Iast to know.

Are you gentlemen secret police?

Evening.

Evening.

Are you working?

I'm guarding the stuff.

On Christmas Eve?

UntiI the boys get back.

Then we're going to celebrate..

Decorating?

We're doing the whole floor.

Is there something you want?

Who are you?

Why are you watching me?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Who's in there?

Young man! Come down this minute!

Clear off!

Come down now or I'II call the police!

I'm calling the police!

I'm going... and I'II call them!

Neither of us wants the police here.

I'll be back.

I'II be here.

He's gone.

Get inside!

You should be ashamed... a sick old Iady...

He's gone back.

Where's Mark�?

Andris!

They're watching us.

I know. They put a bug in the telephone

They can see and hear everything.

- Who are they? - The Patai circle

They've rented the flat opposite and they're watching from there.

But we're watching them. And when the moment comes, we'll step in.

It's vital that you don't break your cover.

What should I do?

Go up to the flat and call the woman.

She's in on it, too. You know what you have to do, don't you?

- Something's disappeared. - What?

It was there this morning and now it's not.

- What? - I've looked for it everywhere.

- What? - The agent Iist.

Get up there!

Go!

At last!

Nice work.

Thanks.

Hello?

It's your wife, Comrade

Janka?

- HeIIo. - Pali...?

PaIi, you said 5 o'clock I've laid the table

Andris is making a quick caII.

You"re not working, are you?

There's a small problem with the flat...

- Is something wrong? - No. We'll hurry.

I've got to go. See you Iater.

Yes?

It's me.

Andris, there"s nothing wrong, is there?

No. Nothing's wrong.

Your voice sounds so strange.

Is there something you want to say?

I Iove you.

- Should l come over? - That'd be good.

I'm on my way.

Rewind.

1-2-1-4-4...

Shit!

Who are you working for?.!

Who are you working for?.!

What do you want from Jung?

- Talk! - Comrade Mark�...

Comrade Mark�...

put the gun down before someone sees you.

The comrade won't run away.

Stand up!

Let me introduce Lieutenant Eva G�ti.

Lieutenant? What Lieutenant?

From the Investigations Department.

We instructed her to get close to Jung and steal his agent list.

Of course we know about the agent Iist. It's part of the test, Comrade Mark�.

We test how the subject behaves under pressure.

That was pressure, all right.

And if it goes on Like this, I won't be able to able to vouch for Jung

That's the idea.

That's the exact idea.

We aim to create a situation where the subject is forced

to choose between his job and his emotions.

It's the Moscow method. That's what we use.

What we use?

And who uses it?

Everyone.

Since when?

Since now.

Why don't I know about this?

It's top-secret. People are only told what they need to know.

Only told what they need to know?

Exactly, Comrade Mark�. It's your method

We've just refined it a little.

The test is over!

- I can't allow you to break our cover! - Out of my way!

- What did you just say?! - Move!

I didn't hear.

I said move!

I'm in charge of the test now.

- You've got no authorization! - But I do!

Show me!

Here.

Feri,

- Call the minister! - It's pointless at this hour of the night...

It's not pointless for me Feri...

Call him!

Good evening. I'II hand you to Comrade Mark�.

Hello, S�ndor.

Sorry to disturb you but there's a small problem..

Emil KuIcs�r, yes. The test invigilator..

Sorry?

He...?

I see.

Fine. Sorry.

And happy holidays! Bye.

Thank you.

And now what?

Are you going to send me home?

Do you want to go home?

Then let's get back to work!

We want our allies and our enemies to know

that our country will heal the wounds caused by counter-revolutionaries

and that we are determined that Hungarian land,

that has been watered by the sweat of generations of peasants

and workers and where bourgeois rule left the country in ruins 12 years ago,

will be rebuilt as a free, independent, socialist homeland...

Do you Iove him?

Because he Ioves you.

Of course he Ioves me.

We've reached the final stage. Comrade, it's time.

They'll kill each other.

Who'll kill who?

You've gone too far, KuIcs�r.

There are two possible outcomes.

One is that Jung breaks off with the woman

and in which case he'll pass the test.

The other is that he breaks his cover in which case he'll fail

He'll end it.

Who gave you the angel?

Pali.

He's like a father to me...

If it wasn't for him, I'd have died in the muck like my old man.

He got me into school and I've got him to thank for everything.

Have you told him about us?

No.

Why?

He must really love you.

I was supposed to be having supper at their place tonight.

Sour cream?

A drop of wine?

No, thanks.

- HeIIo? - I'll have a drop more.

It's for you..

Comrade Kulcs�r.

The bottle's in the kitchen.

Don't bother...

Hello, yes?

I can't...

Not now...

Is there a problem, Comrade KuIcs�r?.

It's my daughter.

She's worse.

She needs you.

I know, but...

We're only human, Comrade KuIcs�r.

You go.

The comrade minister will understand.

He doesn't have to know.

No, he doesn't.

Comrade P�lmai!

Doh�ny, record everything. Get everything.

Take Comrade Kulcs�r to the hospital

I'll be right back.

Thanks.

You've nevertoId me about your parents

There's nothing to tell.

What were they like?

I suppose today you'd say that they were bourgeois

and they took everything from them.

My father was taken on forced Iabour,

he didn't have boots and he never came back from the front.

You mother?.

She taught piano...

to aristocracy. She left a couple of years ago.

She said she couldn't live in a country where they banned "Gloomy Sunday".

She defected.

Is that why they wouldn't accept you at the Music Academy?

Because of your mother?.

The cabbage is delicious

They can do anything in this wretched secret-police country!

Why aren't you eating? Eat!

I've lost my appetite.

But if we'd won Iast year...

Did you believe in it?

We were so close.

We never stood a chance!

- But if they'd not tricked Mal�ter... - I know nothing about Mal�ter

but I saw what happened at Corvin Lane.

Were you there?

Did you fight?

Let's dance.

Who are you working for?.

Who are you working for?.

You know I'm not working now.

Who are you working for?.

Are you all right?

Who are you working for?l

- You scare me. - Where is it?

I don't know what you're talking about.

The Iist. What have you done with it?

- What list? - I know you took it.

- I didn't... - Who did you give it to?

It was in my drawer. It went missing after you Ieft.

- I never touched it. - Do you think it just evaporated?!

- Perhaps you put it somewhere else.. - I didn't put it anywhere. You stole it!

I stole it from you? A stupid Iist?

You're insane!

- You're not going anywhere! - Leave me alone!

Who are you working for?.

I'm not working for anybody!

How long have you been watching? Who are you?

Who did you give the list to?

Fuck your list!

I saw your bIoody photo... Csap� showed me...

What photo?

Why? Is there more than one with a machine gun?

That was a Iong time ago. It wasn't me...

And this morning? When you were standing by the desk...

Andris, I'm telling you the truth... Andris, Andris...

Andris, look into my eyes...

If he keeps torturing her, we'll call it off.

You're such a fool,

you're such an idiot...a fool..

...arseholel

l trusted you.

This flat is busier than Keleti Station and you suspect me?!

Mark�.

He's found it.

Shit!

Nothing.

I'm going over.

- Check the back streets! - Comrade Kulcs�r said...

- The orders have changed! - Yes, sir.

We heard screams and a struggle

Go back to your flat!

- Should I go call the police? - Don't think about it!

Drop the gun!

Where's the girl?

- Did you hurt her?. - Isn't that what you wanted?

Andris, she's a counter-revolutionary

- The Patai circle was spying on you... - It was you.

I know it's the test today.

I know you've been playing with me!

Eva told me everything.

Comrade, you have seriously infringed the test regulations..

If it turns out that you told the subject that his test is today...

If it turns out that you came over in the middle of the test...

Have you broken cover on the whole operation?

Wait outside. That's an order!

How Iong were you going to wait?

You've reaIIy fucked me, Andris!

In the undercover flat? On the day of your test?

- Would you give up your career?. - You'd do the same for Janka!

No, you're mistaken!

Running after your dick? You didn't Iearn that from me!

You've broken all the rules, Andris.

You've failed.

I'm disappointed in you!

Get dressed, Janka's waiting!

What about the Iist?

Thanks.

Now we can eat in peace.

Call her in

Do what I say.

- Anything? - Nothing.

I'm here now.

What stage are we at?

Thank you.

- Now where are you going? - To get my coat and then I'm gone.

You go You"re just like all women

Never look for me again

l won"t. Don"t worry

Give me the microphone.

1957, December 24,

time: 20:43.

Agent Andras Jung's test has been competed.

You were right, Comrade Mark�.

Jung really is your best man.

He just does what he has to.

Going home?

Yes... for supper.

I'd happily accept a little leftover fish-soup.

Shall we go?

What?

Lieutenant KuIcs�r caIIed and said

we should take the Comrade Lieutenant-Colonel in for debriefing.

But we're just going home.

He said it's urgent.

It will take only half an hour.

We gathered here to evaluate the results of today's exam.

I would like to ask Comrade Mark� to give us q brief report

on the events of the last 12 hours.

Today, on the 24th December 1957...

following the order of the Hungarian People's Republic's Ministry of Internal Affairs...

Issue Nr. 1957/16...

Department 2/D of Cultural Affairs had the examination of Andras Jung,

Undercover officer of the Secret Service.

In the course of the exam,

we continually tested Comrade Jung in different situations...

To challenge his loyalty.

Comrade Jung resisted every temptations,

did not compromise himself, and achieved the best grade on his exam.

Have you made any contact to Comrade Jung under the period of the examination?

Me? No.

Have you attempted to influence the result of the examination on any ways whatsoever?

No.

Have you represented the interests of the Communist Government

and the Working People in all of you actions?

Yes, I have.

Comrade Jung.

...I am going to switch back the bug at 8 o'clock tomorrow...

From now, you must act as if you have decided to split.

How about Kulcsar?

I lured him to the hospital.

By the time he gets back, the tape will be the proof that you have just split.

But you are never to tell anyone what happened here today.

Do you still uphold your previous statement, Comrade Marko?

I do.

So you are saying that you acted in the best interest

of the Communist Government and the Working People in all of your attempts.

I did. And if I have made any minor mistakes, it only happened...

to lead these two back on the right track.

Eva Gati!

Yes.

You passed the exam, congratulations.

Andras Jung!

Here!

You also passed the exam, congratulations.

The committee will suggest your promotion and future deployment

in the service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The newly vacant flat's new occupant will be Eva Gati from now.

Pal Marko!

You have failed your examination.

The Department of Political Investigation immediately suspends you.

And will initiate your rejection from the Communist Party.

Your position will be taken by Comrade Kulcsar.

Dismissed.

Nice work.

I had a good teacher.

Csapo was right.

You are a nice couple. You fit.

I am disappointed in you.

That's all?

Yes.

Let's go!
