starring

The Time of Honor
season 5

A lot of people don't want

previously...
-my mission to succeed.

Mum's told me to come home quickly.
She never sends telegrams like that.

What?
They let me go.

-You don't know any of these?
-I know who I can ask.

-Are you from Powisle?
-Yes. 6 Tamka St. Flat 7.

-The Security Service.
-It's no good that

-the secret police found me first.
-When will I meet someone senior?

The meeting's already organised.

The cousin from Murmansk
episode 59

-What have you decided?
-Sit down.

Go on.

-Did you see Celina yesterday?
-Yes.

-See anyone else?
-No.

Know what to do?

What an idea.

You think Celina
grassed us up?

-They might have been watched.
-But why?

She may have let slip she knows
you or they may have twigged.

We'll have to watch her.
Where she goes,

who she meets,
where she lives, etc.

-It's a bad idea.
-It's an order!

Wanda too.

-I didn't meet her, I told you.
-But you were at the theatre.

-She might have been watched, right?
-OK, I'll go there.

We'll meet in the evening.

What about Ruda?
She was in that flat too?

-Ruda's in Lublin.
-With Ernest?

-You're here, daughter...
-Mum.

-What's the matter?
-Come on through.

The journey took ages.
We had to wait hours,

because they
were letting military trains through.

Dad's dead.

You claim your name's Rainer?

I don't claim it. I am Lars Rainer.
Obersturmbannf�hrer,

-head of the Gestapo in Warsaw.
-Do you admit that openly?

I don't see any reason to hide it.
I haven't committed any crimes.

Why was it so important for you
to wind up on our side?

Russians don't respect any rights.

-They're animals.
-Like Jews, I suppose?

I don't see what Jews have to do
with this. I only said the Russians

treat all Germans as criminals,
that's all.

Know what I think?

You hope that by hiding on our
side you'll avoid the noose.

I demand to see
an officer of equal rank.

Why shouldn't we hand
you over to the Poles?

It would be a great
mistake on your behalf.

I have something that I know
will interest your intelligence.

They arrested him on Monday,

four days ago.

He said something uncomplimentary
about the Soviets during a lecture.

First the dean called him,

then...

At first I thought it was a mistake
and would all be cleared up.

But when he didn't come home
the next day I sent the telegram.

Then I went to the Castle,

I couldn't visit him
and then this came today.

NO TIFICATION

Cause of death.:
myocardial infarction.

-"Heart attack."
-Yes.

They could have said anything,
just not that.

He had a heart like a bell.

"You may collect your husband's
body from the mortuary"

"every day during office hours
from 8:00 to 14:00."

"During office hours..."

-You've taken too much.
-Please, just that.

-Those thieves will get all the rest.
-See how it's ended up?

We're running away like rats.
OK, give me that. There's still room.

Otto, get on.

Get on.

-Go.
-Excuse me, there's no room.

-Wait there.
-Otto!

Get on.

-I'm not going.
-Otto.

-Otto.
-I'm staying in Poland.

-Take care.
-What are you saying?

-We're going.
-What are you doing?

You can go.

What are you doing?

When were you the head of the
Gestapo in Warsaw?

In 1941 and then in 1944.

How many people did you send
to the camps?

I beg your pardon?

-I don't understand the question.
-No?

The question is simple.

How many people did you send
to their deaths during that time?

-I want to talk to an officer.
-Why would a US officer

-want to talk to scum like you?
-This is unacceptable.

-The Geneva Convention.
-Stick it up your ass!

You hope you'll be able to
bargain with your information.

And then our court will sentence
you to a maximum of 10 years.

Or 5 with a lawyer and no witnesses.
You're out of luck.

I was in the unit that
liberated Buchenwald Camp.

I saw those people.

Russians, Poles and Jews.

Hundreds of thousands of Jews.

Are you a Jew?

-It's not your business.
-You're prejudiced against me.

So I refuse to testify until
my interrogator

-is changed.
-By all means. Huggis.

Yes, sir.

Take this scum back to the cell.

Marysia, have some.

That wasn't a very clever decision.

I know.
But they need doctors everywhere.

-Otto, you're a German.
-And a doctor. I'll find work.

I hope you're right.

Marysia, I've always been rational.

Let me follow...

my heart this time.

-Hello, does Mr Krukowski live here?
-That's me. What is it about?

-It must be a mistake.
-Perhaps you mean my son,

-Bocian? Are you a friend?
-Yes, he live here?

Come in, we can talk.

He's not here now. He went away for
a few weeks, but I've had no news.

I've no idea where he went.

I hope in a moment...

-Did he come by himself?
-I think so.

-Did you have to leave that out?
-What do we tell the boss?

That no one came.
We'll sort this out ourselves.

Wanda, want a lift?
Come on. There's room.

-Come on.
-Bye.

Careful.

CITY COUNCIL

Yes?

Who?

Yes, of course.
Let her in.

Come in.

-Hello. My name's Wanda Ryszkowska.
-My dear daughter.

I won't excuse myself,
I can only apologise.

You've grown up.

You're a beautiful girl.

You're so similar to my mother.

-Didn't Hela ever tell you?
-No. May I sit down?

Of course, take a seat.

Would you like something to drink?

No thank you.

-Hela said you've got a problem.
-And that's the only reason I'm here.

But I'm still glad you came.

Tell me exactly what it's about.

Excuse me, that woman who just
went in... dropped her glove.

-I want to give it to her.
-I will when she comes out.

Maybe I could run after her?

-Which room did she go to?
-Comrade Zawisza, but you need

a special pass to see him.

I see.

What about the glove?

Where are you taking me?

You demanded to see an
officer of the intelligence.

Drive on.

Please come in, comrade.

It's a true honour,
to be visited by you.

I remember hearing legends
about you from my partisan days.

I've heard you fought alongside
comrade General Walter in Spain.

That's all in the past.

Please sit down.
Perhaps you'd like a coffee.

No thank you. It'll take a minute.
I have to get back. Duty calls.

What can I do for you?

It's a simple matter.

There's a man working for you who
should be thrown out on his ear.

He really ought to be arrested.

-What's his name?
-Ryszkowski.

What are the accusations
against him?

He's a former Gestapo agent.

How do you know that?

His ex-wife,
Wanda Ryszkowska, an actress,

has made the claim.

He's stalking
and blackmailing her.

Excuse me, comrade, I don't get it.

He's blackmailing her or vice versa?

Because if he's blackmailing her it

means he knows something about her.

He knows what she's hiding.

Is my reasoning correct?

What does she want to hide?

I don't know. The point is
he should leave her alone.

I'm sorry for asking, comrade,
but what links you to this actress?

-She's an acquaintance.
-Can you vouch for her?

-Naturally.
-That's important, very important.

Right, I promise I'll look into it.
His name is...

Karol Ryszkowski.

Can I count on you?
Will you take some action?

I promise we'll investigate the case.

He ought to stand trial.

I can't right away.
First I have to launch an enquiry.

Unless I receive an order.

Would you like me to call Bierut?

If you would be so kind.

I can't take such a decision myself,
you understand...

Yes.

You're making a mistake,
comrade colonel.

You're making a mistake.

That's hot.

Comrade colonel.

Comrade colonel.

Cigarette?

What links you
to Wanda Ryszkowska?

She's my ex-wife.

Did you work for the Gestapo?

Yes.

You've let me down.

Do you know your whole life
hangs on one word from me?

Sit down.

I'm giving you a special mission.

Only for me.

Yes, sir.

Have a cigarette.

It's broken.

Thank you.

-Well?
-How are you?

Wladek may have been right.

It's hard to believe, but
there's always a possibility.

How about you?

Let's wait for Wladek.

I don't want to talk about it.

They'll pay for this.
I swear.

-Don't say it aloud.
-Don't worry.

-What are you doing?
-You can't write that.

What can't I do?
That's my father.

Writing that he died
tragically is not allowed.

Leave it alone!
Who are you anyway?

Don't you understand what
I'm saying to you, miss?

I won't let you stage a protest here.
Go or I'll have you both locked up.

-Come on, daughter, come on...
-Wait!

If you want to know,
your dad was only hit

in the kisser a few times.

What are you staring at?
Get lost, I said!

Let's get out of here.
Quick.

Go to Uncle Eryk in Gdynia.

You'll go in a Red Cross vehicle.

Then I'll try and get you to Sweden.

I don't really know who you are.

-Your daughter.
-My daughter wouldn't have killed

someone in cold blood.

Mum, do you understand
what I'm saying to you?

You're going to Gdynia and
you're never coming back.

Pack some money and jewellery.

What about you?

I can't leave right now.
I've still got something to sort out.

My child, it'll come out.
They'll get you.

I'll be alright.

-Hello, I'm here to see Mrs Rudnicka.
-What's it about?

-I'd like to talk to her.
-Jacek?

Oh God, Jacek, please come in.

My sincere condolences, Mrs Rudnicka.

Meet Jacek, your father's assistant.

Everyone at the
university's very shocked.

They wouldn't even
Iet us come to the funeral.

People are afraid.

But, if you ever need anything I...

I owe so much to Professor Rudnicki.

-Thank you very much, I'll remember.
-I don't want to disturb...

Goodbye.

Have they arrested anyone else?

Professor Kalicki, two days ago.

Some friends managed to contact
someone who works at the Castle.

They say it was all orchestrated by
some Wachowicz from Warsaw.

-It was he who tortured...
-I understand.

They say he's already left Lublin.
Perhaps things will calm down.

Perhaps.

Thank you.

There's no time.

Why did you go away?

Now nothing makes me happy,

When my dreams are over.

Who will heal my heart?

Wipe the tears from my eyes?

Golden chrysanthemums,

Please smile to me.

Perhaps my sadness will vanish

-Among long lost memories.
-They've almost finished.

Stop.

The band are having a break.

-Come on.
-Let's drink the newlyweds' health!

Kiss the bride! Kiss the bride!

-Siwy sent us.
-What's it about?

-I'm looking for this girl.
-Not bad. Sorry I don't know her.

-You're talking about my wife.
-Sorry.

Take a good look.

-Strange.
-What's strange?

I remember Chudy taking this photo,
but I don't think there was a girl.

Don't think?

-Kill me, but I can't remember.
-Try a bit harder!

Listen, this is my only lead.

I swear to God I don't remember.

Thanks.

You painted doll,

Heartless and soulless.

Nothing ever moves you,

When evil lurks in you.

Beware, unexploded bombs.
Move back. Don't come any closer.

Please move back.
Move back.

Don't come any closer.

Let's go.

-Where are the others?
-Bronek's checking there's no tail.

What about Wladek?

He's vanished.
Left the house yesterday and...

-I haven't seen him since.
-Do you know where he went?

No.

We'll go alone.

Colonel Garlicki of the Armed Forces
Delegation for Poland is waiting.

Let's go.

Welcome, gentlemen.

-Familiar faces?
-Welcome.

Sit down, gentlemen.

A person you know well
is coming in a few hours.

So I have a few questions for you.
Please stay here

until the evening in the event
of a further questions.

So, please present
the sequence of the events

you participated in.

On 22 May my brother and I
were summoned...

-Please remain seated.
-...by our superior officer,

Major Jezierski.
To report in the afternoon.

-Who brought the order?
-A courier.

-Had you met him before?
-No.

We arrived at the cottage
where Jezierski was staying at 4.45.

We hadn't expected the
silence or stillness.

We went inside.
First we found the body of a soldier

from the major's bodyguard.
And then other bodies.

Jezierski, shot from close range
and an unknown man

-shot in the side.
-Was the wounded man conscious?

No. Or at least so it seemed to us.

What then?

During the search we found a piece
of paper sown into the man's jacket.

An authorisation by General Okulicki.
And we decided to evacuate him.

And then you were surrounded.

Yes, sir.

Major Krawiec has informed me

that your brother has disappeared.

Yes. He went out yesterday
and hasn't returned.

Do you think that's connected with
the matter under discussion?

I'm unable to answer that question.

Very well. We'll continue.

-Minister. Colonel Wasilewski.
-He may enter.

-Comrade minister...
-Be seated.

Well, do you have anything for me?

The noose is tightening, let's say.

How poetic...

-And results?
-I've come about a delicate matter.

It's about comrade Zawisza.

-And what's he got to do with us?
-I suggested that to him,

-but he wasn't happy.
-Zawisza came to see you? Why?

He asked me to call off the
observation of a certain woman.

-An acquaintance of his, he claimed.
-Who is this woman?

The wife of one of the saboteurs.

But why have you brought it up?

Comrade minister, I'd like to ask
for permission to observe Zawisza.

-But only until we sort it out.
-Know who supports him?

That's why I'm coming to you.

Do it discretely.

Thank you.

Put me through to comrade
Korytowski of the City Council.

Yes, Doctor Zawisza.

I don't believe in your feelings,

As I don't believe
in houses of cards.

You know I despise lying,

But you don't want to live honestly.

Comrade, which one is Kobra?

-Security Service.
-What's going on?

-You're under arrest.
-But I haven't done anything.

-What's going on?
-Do you want to come too?

What's going on?
Let the music play.

Let's play, comrades.

Chop-chop.

WARSAW RECONSTRUCTION OFFICE
SOCIAL RECONSTRUCTION FUND

Hello.

Hello.

-Does Professor Majerski work here?
-Yes.

Where can I find him?

-I'm so pleased you came.
-Professor, I haven't decided yet,

-but I have to admit I'm attracted...
-Yes. See how much work there is.

That's the Department
of Historical Architecture.

But you're much prefer old
buildings. I'll show you something.

Excuse me.

-Our darling baby will be built here.
-A road?

The West-East Highway.
It'll be a wide, urban road,

crossing Warsaw
on its east-west axis.

We'll dig a tunnel
under Plac Zamkowy.

No one has planned anything so
ambitious since Haussmann in Paris.

They're

designing new housing
estates over there.

Like the Warsaw Housing
Cooperative in Zoliborz?

I hope it'll be similar.

-After all, Bierut was on the board.
-Really?

Yes.

-I have to answer it.
-Of course.

Goodbye, professor.

Don't keep me waiting.

Yes? Yes,
Prof. Zachwatowicz just called.

They've arrived.

If he keeps grilling us like that
we might be here all night.

-Behind the Poles' backs, the Reds...
-Which Poles?

Polish communists. Want to make
a deal with the London government.

Stalin's representative has visited
the general and made some offers.

-When did this happen?
-About two weeks ago.

The General claimed he couldn't
make any decisions without talking

to the authorities in Poland.

-Which explains my mission.
-They want to make a deal...

-Why have the Soviets changed tack?
-Why should we believe it?

According to the general,
there's only one explanation money.

Following the arrest
of the Polish Underground's leaders,

the Americans kept back the credit.
They also withheld

material aid, and particularly
importantly for the Soviets,

-supplies of grain.
-Why won't they release the sixteen?

Or General Okulicki himself?

-Why not send a delegation to London?
-It would be a propaganda disaster.

It would mean they were leaving
the Polish communists in the lurch.

They always sort things like
that out behind closed doors.

How did you end up as an emissary?

By accident.

I was in the same cell as him and
we knew each other before the war.

But, he didn't have much choice.
And neither did I.

Alright,

what are the Soviets'
specific propositions?

Their man will tender them in detail.
They concern the release of the 16,

universal demobilisation

and a fixed number of communists in
the new government irrespective of

-election results.
-How would we negotiate?

The Russians suggest a meeting
in an isolated place,

which would be
safeguarded by both sides.

On one side would be the Armed
Forces Delegation for Poland,

representatives of the
underground, and crucially,

leaders of the political parties.
On the other, a person who has total

Soviet authorisation and is the only
man in Poland who knows everything.

We won't tire you out any longer.

There'll be a decision this evening.

Tell me.

Assuming the decision is positive,
how are we to contact them?

They gave me the name
and password of their person.

-Where are you going to meet him?
-It's a woman,

their representative
in the Ministry of Security.

Her name is Ada Lewinska.

I have to see Mrs Ada Lewinska.
Please tell her that her cousin

from Murmansk is here.
It's important.

With the minister?

Her cousin. From Murmansk.

A stranger for Mrs Lewinska.

You're under arrest.

I'll only talk to Minister Lewinska.

in the next episode...
-What news?

-I don't really understand.
-You're here to carry out orders,

-not to understand.
-Yes?

A parcel for Capt. Wachowicz.

I've ridden for over a day in a dark,
smelly truck,

-with no food or drink.
-OK, now you'll be able to protest.
