TIME OF HONOR

He shot at me. I saw him with Halbe.

Him?

I'd like to see the reports of your Polish agent.

Sooner or later they'll rumble me. They have to suspect someone else.

There's no doubt. He has to be executed.

I sentence you to death.

Drop your gun! Bronek.

He may be of use. He's worth more to the Germans. We can trade him.

I'm fighting in the Warsaw Boxing Championship. I want to invite you.

Good evening.

A POSTCARD FROM HAIFA EPISODE 37

Wladek.

I spoke to counter-intelligence. They've arrested the entire gym.

They took them to Szucha. Not to Pawiak?

They had precise information.

Do they know who they've got? They do. That's not all.

There was another matter.

Bronek's been sentenced to death.

Major...

We need to talk.

It's a slaughterhouse, isn't it? We're saving people.

People don't have so much blood.

Examine her. How far gone are you?

Eighth month.

They might be labour pains. She still has two months.

She might give birth at any time. A German doctor will decide.

He's coming from Dresden today. He'll stop your tricks.

Nice and easy.

Lie down. I didn't talk.

That's why he kicked me. The swine!

Where does it hurt? Here.

They told me

I'm to be transported...

to Auschwitz.

I don't want to give birth there.

I don't want to. You won't.

I swear.

Why are you interested in them? I've got a stake in it.

One Polish general for 16 Soviets. He's General Radziszewski,

a close associate of the Supreme Commander.

I'll pass this on to my superiors. We'll wait, but not for too long.

Someone will contact you.

I didn't think you'd join the Reds.

In half an hour. To me. And bring me a decent lunch.

Not breakfast. Lunch. Thank you.

Enter.

Heil Hitler.

I'm glad we could meet, sir.

Is it urgent? Yes.

I'd like to suggest a transaction.

Go on.

I know how we can get the Poles' top man.

I do too.

He's been downstairs since yesterday.

Sit down.

Didn't you know? Interesting.

Is Fuchs there?

Fuchs. Send him up at once.

Cigar?

I have to work.

We have money. It isn't ours.

Ghosts don't need it. Shush!

We'll all get out. I know a man who ships people to Palestine.

You believe that? What's the matter with you?

What's that? Take a look.

It's a postcard from Haifa.

This family sent word to the ghetto as soon as they arrived.

Do you believe now? We'll do it too.

I have to go.

Enter.

I've brought the prisoner. You may go.

Welcome. It's a pleasure to meet you.

What a surprise.

The Obersturmbannf�hrer told me about our brilliant achievement.

Why didn't you tell me how it finished?

I had to keep it a secret.

We succeeded, that's the main thing.

When do the interrogations begin? We need to give him some time.

He'll open up.

You want to go back to the cell? Yes.

People under stress like to talk. And how do you react to stress?

I get hungry.

How appropriate. I ordered lunch from the restaurant. Will you join us?

It's too early for me.

Please keep me informed. Of course.

Heil Hitler.

May I have a smoke?

Thank you.

What are you doing here?

I had to see you. You're insane.

Who did that to you? Don't touch.

Was it that Mongol again?

Listen. That escape to Russia. Is it still on?

Lena. Things are a bit complicated.

But I'll get you out. I just need more time.

I have to go.

Lena. I'll be late for work.

Quickly, or we'll be late.

Dr Schroeder, your new superior.

Doctor...

Eight months pregnant. I can see.

She shouldn't be in a cell. She may give birth any moment.

She remains in hospital.

You're staying.

You're back at last.

Didn't they hit you? It wasn't an interrogation.

They made me carry some sacks.

Thank God.

I didn't think you'd still be here. Thought you'd be in a single cell,

where the conditions are better.

Do you think they know who I am?

They have good intelligence.

That's me finished. They have reason to hate me.

Do you know who I am?

Of course.

I know everything about you, too.

You've got a good right hook, decent balance, but weak legs.

You won't last more than 2 rounds.

They knew when and who, and that a lot of us would be there.

They knew the layout

and where our guards were. Accurate intelligence.

They were after someone.

Who? Don't know. They weren't sure, either.

They took plenty of photos.

Someone grassed. There's no other way.

I think you're right.

There've been more slip-ups recently. Do you suspect someone?

Where are you? Dinner's cold. Coming, auntie.

You have to help me.

I need to see the CO. He's in Szucha. Someone ratted.

Tadeusz is there too. Everyone's looking for you.

I have to get it straight. That your father's a grass and you...

You tell me.

We've been ordered to kill you. Show me what you can do.

Shoot, Janek.

My father's innocent. And I am, too.

Your spuds are getting cold. Bronek.

Good evening, auntie.

I'll manage.

Are you certain? There aren't any mistakes here.

You mean you don't have anything.

Meaning WE don't have anything.

Enter.

Herr Obersturmbannf�hrer.

I've brought the prisoner. Get out.

I don't have any good news. What is it?

He isn't the Chief.

Impossible.

He's Franciszek Szymurski a construction worker.

They all treat him like a hero. That doesn't surprise me.

He was a famous boxer. European Champion in Budapest

in 1930. He KO'd our Limsberg in the final.

We wheeled out the big guns for nothing.

He was never in the army.

He supports a sick wife and works as a builder.

You needn't return to your cell.

We can finish with this pantomime.

There's still the liaison officer and the CO.

Hello. Good day.

I've decided. I'm not marrying Krzysztof.

I thought you'd be happy.

They arrested him.

Someone grassed. The Germans got everyone in the gym.

The CO and Tadeusz as well.

Do you like the accordion? I always ask my guests.

Yes, I do. That's a very good start.

You look like a sensible person.

Smoke? I don't smoke.

A sportsman. I used to box, too.

You never lose it, do you?

Poor technique.

Want to play, do you? We can play. The game's simple.

I ask a question you counter it.

If I don't like it you hit the floor. Ready?

Are you a liaison officer? What?

On our feet. One...

two, three, four,

five, six.

Ten!

Dad. You trade with the Germans?

Yes.

What do you do for them? The firm would go bust otherwise.

We make axles for trains.

You said you didn't work for the army.

Civilians also travel by train.

You must know some officers.

I gave them a fat bribe.

How can I make you believe me?

Sit down. And take your boots off.

Get your boots off. I don't like doing it.

You say you're a carpenter.

Yes. You make furniture.

I did. I mean my grandfather does.

And I think you're lying. Socks.

You aren't a carpenter, but a Polish Army lieutenant.

6th Company, 35th Infantry Regiment. Pomeranian Army, September 1939.

It's a mistake. My name's Jan Luwel.

I like boxing... The other one.

I was there because I'm a boxing fan. I know it's illegal, but...

But I don't like boxing.

Guard!

Are you ticklish?

Halt!

It's closed.

When do they open? There's another photographer

two streets away. I need to talk to the owner.

I know the boy in the window. I have to find his parents.

Give me your address.

I don't know anything, but I'll pass it on.

When did you last see him?

Who? Stupid swine.

How do you communicate with him? Do you know 12 Wilcza Street?

Don't you know where you live?

Who's Celina? No one.

No one?

Yes! No one?

Yes, yes, yes!

It's pointless. He won't talk. I have skilled staff.

I've seen them. I know that type. He'd rather die than talk.

We've got no choice. We do. We have to change tack.

I've got a plan B ready.

What do you have in mind? The thing I need above all...

is your help. Have you spoken

to Major Halbe? This is Abwehr business.

Major Halbe won't be needed.

Go on.

The plan has several stages. But first...

they have to trust me.

No Wladek, I'm not going. You are.

I am not going. Listen Ruda.

This way.

It's not looking good.

Tadeusz and the CO are in Szucha. They won't talk, but you know.

They might talk? I have to bear it in mind.

And there's the Bronek situation. You don't trust him?

He rescued you from Pawiak! I trust him, but I'm afraid.

You go to Lublin for a few days.

What about you?

I'm not going anywhere. No way!

Come with me. Come on.

How nice to see you. Take a seat.

I'm sorry for my subordinates' officiousness. It was unnecessary.

Fortunately I'm back from leave.

There you go.

Have a seat.

As you prefer.

I have an offer for you.

Ready?

We know quite a lot. Your arrest is no coincidence.

You're a professional and I am too. We know what that means.

It's a mistake, I'm a carpenter.

Yes.

A carpenter, who rescued other prisoners

from a transport to Auschwitz. And tried to kill Rainer!

The best boxer in Szucha.

With Wladek, Michal and Tadeusz. Some details about the operation?

Sorry.

Tadeusz didn't shoot Rainer, because a guard surprised him.

Right? And Celina...

Please sit down.

I'll spare you the details.

This is my proposal. We'll give you some time.

You can rest in Pawiak, get better.

Then we'll meet and talk.

We don't have all the facts, but we'd like to.

What do you think?

Again.

In the nose.

Once.

The baby's alright. It's moving. Can you feel it? It's lively.

Doctor, please let me stay.

I don't want to go to Auschwitz. Please do something.

There's only one way.

But it's risky. What is it?

We can induce labour artificially. How?

We'll put you on a drip. Hot baths and exercises.

It may work. But it has to be your decision.

OK.

We'll do it.

Prepare her for the bathroom.

Doctor.

Yes?

It'll work...

... won't it?

Of course, child. It'll work.

But who? Janek, Michal even Wanda.

They're dashing around. Why are they looking for him?

Because of the arrests.

What arrests? They've arrested Tadeusz.

Tadeusz? Didn't you know?

Tell me all you know.

These prisoners are important to us. You're personally responsible.

Take those two to their cells. Put them in no. 8.

Quickly.

Scharf�hrer Fuchs with a prisoner. Doctor Erich Schroeder.

We need him on his feet quickly.

We need him. Prepare a drip.

Mengel.

Keep an eye on him! Yes sir.

Follow me.

Have you seen my bag?

Is something the matter? What?

He's planning something.

Halbe.

I'm sure Tadeusz's arrest is part of a bigger operation.

Forget it, relax.

I finish early today, we can go out.

Good. Or we can stay in and talk.

We don't have much time.

Why?

I'm going back to Berlin. On Sunday.

On Sunday. Inga, wait... Wait.

You have to help me. I need more information.

Get as much out of him as possible. I'll try.

Inga. We'll stay in and talk, OK?

Would you say that again?

We can exchange the Reds for someone from the Command.

You must be joking.

It really is an attractive proposal.

Having failed to arrest the real Commander,

our options are limited.

Whose idea is this? The Polish Underground?

The Communists. Is the Abwehr in touch with them?

I wouldn't call it that.

What will Tadeusz's role in this be? None.

His mission ended in fiasco.

He shouldn't be told about our plans.

It will be our private success. Mine and yours.

Cheers.

When the drip runs out turn it off. Right.

And inform me of any changes.

Where am I?

In hospital. Pawiak Prison.

And my mates?

Locked up.

I feel strange. You've received strong painkillers.

Water.

Of course. I'll get some.

Silence! Silence!

The patient needs to drink. He's a criminal,

not a patient.

I have to send a message. It's very important.

I have to warn someone. Of course, Krzysztof.

I said silence.

What is it? A request for a meeting.

Who? Wanda. Here?

Where? In a restaurant? It's no place for a private meeting.

It won't be a private meeting. You think she's in touch with him?

She's coming.

Bronek.

My father and I want to stand trial.

Out.

Move.

Out. Out. No stopping.

Get in!

Quickly!

Everyone out of the first truck.

Get out.

Quickly.

What's going on?

Nothing.

Nothing? I can hear it. Nothing really.

They're waiting for something.

Get out.

That's enough.

Guard them. Follow me.

If they start shooting it's our only chance.

Now.

Quickly!

Don't shoot.

Krzysztof. He's dead. It's too late. Come on.

This is a special Court Martial.

Someone wants to stitch us up. I don't even know the charges.

Krzysztof's dead. He died in Tadeusz's arms.

He said they'd escaped. He killed my link to the Commander.

I told Fuchs a hundred times not to shoot at us!

Do you know any Gestapo officers? No.

I believe you are lying.

It's not Bronek. If not Bronek,

or Wladek or the CO, who is it?
