THE PRAGUE MYSTERIES

EPISODE 8

Thank you.

Follow me.

Sorry, I forgot one in the back seat.

Hello?

Here's a delicious pancake with jam.

What?

As the Countess wished.

- I want one too. - I want one too.

I want one too.

I want one too.

Papa, the phone's for you!

I knew it!

Don't eat it all, okay?

Enjoy your meal.

Chief Inspector Budik.

- Hi. - Hi.

I'm sorry. I missed the carriage.

Hi. That's all right.

His study room is there.

Did he fall?

That's your job, isn't it?

It's not suicide,

though someone might have really wanted it to look like it was.

This is gonna be very personal for the boss.

A fall wouldn't cause such an impressed fracture.

The balcony isn't that high.

He's got scratches on his neck and arms.

Had he been fighting with somebody?

Or defending himself.

How long has he been lying here?

Two or three days.

Here he comes.

Hynek...

we can do without you.

You could leave.

That's all right.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Hello, Chief Inspector. - Hi.

He was fine

when I left on Friday.

He didn't complain about anything.

We were doing well.

Mrs Herzog...

the doctor believes it wasn't suicide.

Your husband has a head wound that couldn't have been caused by a fall.

The perpetrator apparently threw your husband off the balcony to...

to cover up a murder.

You said you had left on Friday. Where did you go?

I left for Moravia to see my parents.

I was in Vracov.

Where was your maid?

We... fired her.

She'd been stealing from us.

When you came back,

- was the gate locked? - It was.

What about the front door?

There's no handle,

so we don't lock it sometimes.

Who has the keys?

Oh, sorry, Chief Inspector, I didn't know you were there.

I'm... I'm terribly sorry... excuse me...

Sure.

Do you have anything?

Yeah, he probably killed him here,

threw him over the railing,

and then cleaned up.

Chief Inspector, if he had been killed here,

his blood would be here somewhere.

Even if the murderer cleaned up properly.

Well, find it!

Yes, I'll perform the Kastle-Meyer test.

And look under the carpet, it looks suspiciously clean.

What is this?

Novacek, come here!

Perform the test on this one too.

Yes, Chief Inspector.

I've got something here too!

- Here it is. - May I take a look?

Here, too.

What about the carpet?

There's blood, Chief Inspector.

Cut it in two pieces.

Once again.

Yes, and now dice them.

Good evening.

Papa!

Good evening.

What is it?

Pavlinka, plates.

Did you buy the cauliflower, Mr Havlik?

Come on, Toni!

Flowers won't feed us.

And knives and forks.

The cauliflower is in the hallway.

Good night.

But I don't like cauliflower.

Mr Neuzil, you can go.

I'll stay here for a while, so I'll go back by myself.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

So what did you find yesterday?

The train dispatcher in Vracov saw Mrs Herzog.

Her father picked her up at the train station

and stayed with her until she left.

What about the neighbours?

- Nothing. - Nothing?

Hello, inspector.

Hello. I saw you through the window.

Madam has a visitor but she's expecting you.

Thanks.

Hello.

Hello.

This is Karolina Dubovska, my friend.

- Karolina. - Chief Inspector Budik.

Mrs Milada asked me to stay overnight.

- This is a difficult situation. - I understand.

I'll make some tea, Mily.

- May I? - Sure.

Thank you.

I noticed you already have a new maid.

She let us in.

She's just a charwoman, she helps out.

I haven't got a new maid yet.

How come you came?

Mrs Milada, I'm sorry but I have a few more questions.

Did you find out if anything is missing in the house?

I don't think so.

Definitely nothing of value.

The safe in the bedroom is intact.

We never had much cash at home anyway.

My husband kept some money upstairs.

For emergencies.

Your husband confided in me

that he feared a recently released thief, whom he'd defended.

Did you know about it?

Has there been anyone recently that you didn't know?

No, we only had mutual friends over, but very rarely.

Here you are.

Wait, now I remember.

I've seen a man wandering around the house

peering over the fence twice.

Thanks.

Can you describe him?

I know what you mean, but Mrs Milada didn't have a lover.

They were doing fine.

So they never fought at all?

No, maybe...

maybe because of Lukas.

- Who? - Lukas.

That's the doctor's son from his first marriage.

Mrs Milada suspected him of stealing money from her room.

Like his son stole it from her?

Yes, but they reconciled.

Novacek, come here.

Mrs Milada, I'll come in a minute. Thanks.

Lukas...

is a bohemian who plays at being a painter.

But he was just using and tormenting Hermann.

Did they have conflicts?

He'd forged a promissory note recently.

That was the last straw.

Hermann even wanted to change his will.

Change his will?

How?

Originally, Lukas and I were supposed to get a half each,

But my husband...

wanted to change it in my favour.

If Lukas had found out, then...

Mrs Herzog...

you suspect Lukas?

His own son?

Where did your husband keep his money?

In this box.

It's empty.

That's what I expected.

Hello?

This is for you.

Thank you.

I'm listening.

I'm in Herzog's office at Na Porici.

I have a letter from the thief

who allegedly threatened him.

His name is Jiri Knesl.

There's his address too.

Okay, I'll pick him up by myself.

Bye.

She's pretty.

What's her name? Can I pet her?

Yeah?

Don't peck me, okay?

Hey, goose, yeah, good goose.

She's saying something.

What is she saying?

Na Blate!

Well, I'm getting out, bye.

He was the closest person I had.

I heard you were arguing.

I wanted him to be different,

to be like he used to be.

You and Mrs Milada...

Milada is only interested in money.

I'm sure she cheated on my dad.

If he had known, he'd have divorced her in a heartbeat.

But she would never let that happen.

Why do you think so?

I don't drink. Thank you.

She needs money...

luxury.

You think she'd be capable of a murder because of a divorce?

She's capable of anything!

They say you forged some promissory notes.

And what else did she tell you?

Where were you on Friday night?

I was painting.

I was struggling so...

I downed a bottle

and then fell asleep.

You didn't meet anyone during that evening or night?

Nobody saw you?

Here?!

Did your father tell you he wanted to change his will?

That was his business.

Goodbye.

Yeah, it was Kolchak's gold.

Sit down, Knesl.

I was in jail with a guy who was there as an...

armed escort.

And what does this have to do with Dr Herzog?

A lot.

A lot, because Herzog and some other lieutenants

took some of the treasure and stashed it away.

And?

And?

The guy drew me a map of where they'd buried it.

But he'd forgotten the names of the Russian villages.

And that's what I was supposed to get from Herzog.

And what would you do then?

Well I arranged with one guy to go there and dig up the treasure.

But Herzog laughed at me.

He said that even if he knew, he wouldn't tell me.

And you fell for it.

Don't tell me you just left!

And leave that sausage!

Can I have a question?

Sure.

Did you have a fight?

No, we didn't.

Sit down, Knesl!

What's the name of the guy who was in jail with you?

Riha.

Jenda Riha, inspector.

I was just pulling his leg, okay?

But you drew him the map of the treasure.

I did...

but I wasn't there.

I wasn't even in the Legion.

Just look at me.

Please, go on.

Sure.

You're stuck with someone

and have no more stories to tell.

So you start one-upping each other. You know it, right?

- I don't. - Sure.

I heard about the Tsar's gold

from one con I was in jail with in Litomerice.

How did you find out Dr Herzog was there?

Well, Knesl kept talking about him as the lawyer who let him down.

And that when he gets out of jail, he'll deal with him.

And this doctor, he was in Russia.

Just like Knesl.

Well... thank you.

Well... thank you, too.

How about some more cigarettes?

I'll have a pack brought to you.

All right, Riha, let's go!

A minute, boss, a minute.

Hynek!

Hynek!

Chief Commissioner!

Of course, please!

Ladies and gentlemen, the magician!

It's snowing, my friends!

That's the stuff!

Finally a smile!

That's how you do it, buddy!

Changing of the guards, brother.

We're closing.

Darlings, please...

Anything for you, Milan!

But anything...

anything is possible here.

Milanek, oh, sorry, Milan.

- Alzbeta! - Alzbeta.

Alzbeta von Czakoly.

Yes.

Anything's possible here, Alzbeta von Czakoly.

Please.

So, here's to anything.

If you get a prescription from a doctor,

you pay twelve crowns at the apothecary's.

But you can't get this at the apothecary's,

this is first class stuff.

I always thought that the stupid anarchist

wasn't a good catch for you.

I'd skip that one.

Yeah, we'll skip that, we'll... we'll skip that,

we'd better skip that.

But definitely...

we'll not skip this, because this is exactly what's going to help you.

No!

That's medicine!

Look!

Everyone here is healthy and happy.

You know why?

Because they use medicine.

So try it!

Here you go!

That's it!

Good morning, darling!

Good morning, Eniko.

Good morning, Mr Hynek.

Good morning.

Here you are.

You look great, Countess.

Thank you.

- Are we alone? - Nonsense.

The ladies are in the bathroom.

At least Miss Julie's there.

A woman, definitely.

Sisi was here a little while ago, but she went back to bed,

she didn't feel well.

She only took fruit to bed.

We should all go out to dinner again.

Like a family,

as you said, darling.

Milada would confide in me, flings are not her style.

And I don't think she'd have an affair

just because of the risk of Herzog finding out.

Maybe she didn't tell you about the affair.

Please.

Milada has no education, no taste.

She even consults me about what she should wear.

The only thing she understands is shoes.

She's got a whole room for those.

She owns an amazing collection of American shoes.

Mary Jane, do you know it?

But is it possible she didn't confide in you this time?

Even if she hadn't confided in me, I would have known.

I'm going downtown, want a ride?

No, thank you.

Next time.

What a shame.

You have a good taste, doctor.

Thank you, Chief Inspector.

But I guess that's not why you're here, is it?

You're right, doctor.

Cognac?

No, thank you, I won't keep you long.

According to Mrs Herzog, Dr Herzog wanted to change his will.

Did you know about it?

Yes, but he didn't give me any details.

And even if I knew something,

I still wouldn't be allowed to tell you anything

without a court order.

Sure.

Can you at least tell me if he made the change?

This painting has an exceptional colour scheme, did you notice?

Yes, sure, sure.

So the original will stands.

But let's drop the subject.

Then I have two beautiful cabinet cards by Nagar.

Mrs Herzog told me.

Won't you take a closer look?

Yes, very impressive indeed.

Wasn't he trying to cut his son off?

Why the son?

We have the same president.

By Svabinsky.

Watch out, a car!

Hello, Novacek.

Gutten Tag.

Oh! Thank you.

Goodbye, Mr Novacek.

Gentlemen, I'm done for today, it's yours.

What's the matter, my friend, why so early?

Come on, one loss can't spoil your evening.

If only there was one.

Gentlemen, I'm going to take a break.

Well!

May I join you, gentlemen?

Take a seat, sir!

Thank you.

- Please. - Thank you.

I'm sorry about what happened to Herzog.

Here's to Herzog.

- Did you know him? - Not personally.

But I know what he did for you.

We weren't after your daughter.

We wanted to get that anarchist of hers, Drabek.

And we got him thanks to her.

She helped us a lot.

It won't be that bad with her.

Yeah?

You promise?

And what about the murder?

We have nothing yet.

Just the fingerprints of a moron

who thought Herzog had buried some of the Tsar's treasure in Russia.

Do you mean Kolchak's gold?

Yeah.

But they say that the legionnaires set up Legiobank with that money.

How could it be buried somewhere in Russia?

And is all this even true?

I don't know.

I wasn't there, but Herzog's regiment in Khabarovsk was.

I know that for sure.

Gentlemen, let me invite you all for a little toast.

It's been three years, five months

and seven days since I lost the title

Freiherr aus Zagreb.

Gentlemen, champagne for everybody!

Bravo!

You're already awake, darling.

Good morning.

To you too, Hynek.

Eniko!

Yes?

The Chief Inspector is up.

You slept for two, two and a half hours.

Half of which you spent in the toilet.

Braun.

I think he got me drunk.

- Braun? - Yeah.

And you, you poor thing, let yourself go.

Damn, does it have to be so hot!

Now you've got it just right.

Thank you.

Jesus, what awful coffee, who made it?

Eniko!

Yes?

- Wet rag, gherkin, aspirin! - Of course.

That Herzog is giving you a hard time!

What about the girls?

Girls? Shall we leave it for another day?

Family comes first, okay?

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Okay then.

Sisi seems calmer, though I don't know her friends.

She whooped it up a bit yesterday,

so maybe she's got a new acquaintance.

And there's something going on with Julie, too.

Novacek!

I'm sure that's him. I'll kill him!

I'm telling you, I'll kill him!

Definitely... Darling, sit down.

Drink this, eat this.

Novacek...

get me some coffee!

- Yes, Chief Inspector. - Thank you.

Are we also interested in accounts?

Of course, that's the main thing.

Herzog had an account with Legiobank.

There are also regular monthly payments.

He kept a deposit box or a safe at the bank.

Score!

NATIONAL NEWS

Here it is, gentlemen.

- May I? - Sure.

Herzog.

Herzog.

And Herzog again.

RECEIPT

Well, you already know.

Dr Herzog bought all of his son's paintings.

He didn't want to give him money for nothing.

But he always wanted to remain anonymous.

And he really bought all of them?

Yes, yes.

The last painting the poor doctor bought from me

was a portrait of a woman. It was a nude painting.

No, no, it's all right, Mr Pechacek, please.

A nude painting?

Was she naked?

Yes, she was naked.

What did the lady in the picture look like?

Well, it was very decent.

She was covering herself...

like this,

and she had thick, wavy hair over her face...

kind of red, or maybe fiery...

very, very distinctive.

I was quite surprised,

because considering the young Mr Herzog's previous work,

this picture was very, very realistic.

I think it caught the doctor's eye as well.

It might have even surprised him.

But there is no receipt for the purchase of such a painting.

Well, I guess the doctor must have misplaced it.

Hello. Can I talk to you for a moment?

Of course, inspector.

Thank you.

- May I? - Thank you.

Mrs Milada, I don't want to be indiscreet,

but have you told us everything about your relationship with Lukas?

Would you like some coffee, inspector?

I made it myself, I still don't have a maid.

Thank you.

Take a seat.

So you know everything.

We don't like each other.

Did you know that your husband had all Lukas' paintings

stashed in a safe in Legiobank?

I had no idea.

The last painting he bought was supposed to be a nude.

The woman in it had red hair.

But we didn't find this painting among the others.

It occurred to me...

that Dr Herzog recognized you.

Inspector, you read too many detective stories.

You think so?

He figured out you and Lukas were having an affair,

so he wanted to change his will.

That's what you said after all.

You both had a reason and a strong motive.

Why did you get painted?

Lukas and I hated each other for a long time.

But after one argument,

he threw himself on me

and started kissing me.

He fell in love with me.

We used to meet...

outside the city,

in small hotels...

and that's where he painted me.

Hermann figured it out.

He wanted a divorce

and disinherit us both.

I swore to end the affair.

It meant nothing to me.

Did he trust you?

He did.

He was so generous.

I told Lukas it was over.

He was so angry about it.

He wanted me to leave Hermann and live with him.

I couldn't leave Hermann.

I loved him too much.

Then Lukas and I had a fight

and I left to see my parents.

She came to make a scene that I'd stolen money from her room.

Yes, you argued about that, but at another time and another place.

And that's already confirmed.

But she never shuts up about it.

She keeps saying the same things.

I threw her out of the studio.

Mr Herzog, I'm sorry, but we have to detain you.

Are you serious?!

Unfortunately, I am.

I loved my dad. I would never...

I paint landscapes, not figures.

There is no such painting!

Look, I'm... I'm not capable of that.

Will you go quietly?

Chief Inspector, I'd like to secure

the gentleman's clothes and shoes as well.

Why?

We'll perform a blood test.

Novacek, handcuffs!

I've always thought you were a decent guy,

but you're just a lousy cop!

Shut up!

I deeply respected your father,

so stop embarrassing him.

No.

Let's go...

Mr Herzog.

We've detained the doctor's son.

- Son? - Yes.

You think he killed him?

I don't know.

We have almost nothing on him.

But as we were taking him away, he told me I was a lousy cop.

You're not a lousy cop,

you're Chief Inspector, Hynek.

Hey, family, what's going on?

I'm not interrupting, am I?

No, it's all right.

Dad, what about the Herzog's murderer?

Is that for me?

It's papa's, you can have some in the kitchen.

Sorry.

I'm going again.

What was that supposed to mean?

I'd like to know as well.

If I did that to my father, he'd break a cane on me.

I guess I don't pay enough attention to them.

How can she behave like that?!

After all that happened.

Hynek, don't be mad at her.

It's a difficult time.

For all of us.

I know.

I know.

Gentlemen, may I ask you what exactly you're looking for?

You don't have to be here with us, Mr Novy.

We'll call you.

No, no, I'll stay here with you if you need anything.

Yeah, that's a match.

Greetings, gentlemen.

I am sorry, the tram was late.

Hi.

- Hello. - Hello.

Please don't smoke in here, doctor.

It creates a kind of a film on the paintings,

the colours fade.

Up in the backyard, please.

Sorry.

Sorry.

He drove you out too, didn't he?

- Yeah. - Well, the boss hates it.

He says it's mucking up the paintings.

You're Budik, right?

And you're Pechacek.

At your service.

Nice smoke.

- Would you like some? - Well, I'd love to.

- Help yourself. - Such a treat...

for tonight.

Come.

Thank you.

Sorry for asking...

Does the boss have a problem?

No, no, no, it's not a big deal.

But wait, you might know this, too.

Your boss used to sell Lukas Herzog's paintings to his father, right?

Yeah, that's right, but no one could talk about it.

You know, family, yeah...

And do you remember if there was a female nude among them?

Oh, no, man.

I didn't see them all actually, the boss didn't even unpack them,

he sold them straight away.

Well, sure, sure, you can't see everything.

Sure.

But this one would interest me indeed.

It featured a woman with thick, red hair, very distinctive.

Well...

there's such a nice lady seeing the boss now and then.

But she goes straight to his office.

Really?!

Straight to the office?

Yes, right away.

You're sure?

Unfortunately, I am.

Why unfortunately?

Well, she's pretty.

But... you know...

Yeah, yeah.

Doctor, I just described the woman

who was supposed to be in Lukas' painting to your assistant.

Mr Pechacek?

Yes, to Mr Pechacek,

and he told me that one woman who looks like her comes to see you.

Straight to the office.

No.

No, he must be mistaken.

Mistaken!

The woman in the painting

allegedly strikingly resembles Mrs Herzog.

Resembles?

We can confront you with Mrs Herzog.

Or have you taken to the police station,

locked in a cell for two days so that you will remember!

Does the painting exist at all?

Yes, yes.

It could be Mrs Herzog in the painting.

I'm starting to get it now,

I... I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier...

Yes, Mrs Milada comes here sometimes

for a cup of coffee.

She's very well educated

and knowledgeable.

We talk about art.

- Art? - Yeah.

Then why did you pretend not to know her?

Please understand, I...

I've never had dealings with the police,

I've never been in a situation like this, then I also...

I didn't want you to think that I and Mrs Herzog...

you understand that, don't you?

Sure, I get it, I get it.

But the painting does exist.

For sure.

- Here you are. - Thank you.

Thanks.

Thanks.

I also remembered, inspector,

what her "best" friend Dubovska told us.

Yeah, yeah, that she has no education or taste,

that she has to tell her what to wear.

The only thing he understands is shoes.

Really?

So she probably wouldn't throw the shoes away,

even if they were stained with blood.

Drop it, Novacek, will you?

All right, gentlemen, enough talk, the meals are getting cold.

- Enjoy your meal. - Enjoy.

Hello.

Hello, inspector, what would you like?

I'm sorry,

it's a bit of a private matter, can we come in for a moment?

- Sure. - Thanks.

We're coming from Mr Novy.

Yes, I know.

He called me already that you went to see him.

Gentlemen, I'm so embarrassed,

but you see...

my husband was always busy, I was all by myself.

And Mr Novy helped me a lot.

He helped Lukas in particular.

But Mrs Herzog...

we've known all this for a long time.

- Have you? - Yes.

Do you know why I really came here?

I have no idea.

You may find this absurd, but...

because of my wife.

I'm looking for inspiration.

She loves shoes.

Women love shoes.

Yes, and Mrs Dubovska told us that you have

a quite extraordinary collection of American Mary Jane shoes.

But Karolina's exaggerating. I only have two pairs.

But I'd be very, very happy to show you.

Please...

Who could it be that late?

- What do you want? - Good evening...

- Good evening. - Yes, thank you.

What do you want?

I'm so sorry, Chief Inspector, but those shoes...

we found blood on one of Mrs Herzog's pairs.

Inspector Havlik has already gone to fetch her.

Come in and wait until I get dressed.

Feel free to sit down.

Greetings, Countess.

He's so skinny... unmanly.

We'll see.

Good evening.

Greetings.

What are you doing here?

I'll leave you alone.

What are you doing here?

Can I see you tomorrow?

Or on Monday?

On Monday, come on, it always takes him a while to get dressed anyway.

Sit down.

I think I'm pregnant.

Are you sure?

I'm having a baby.

That's great.

I mean, that's amazing.

That's amazing.

What will we do?

Where are you?

He's in the toilet!

You good?

Yes.

Let's go.

Good evening.

- Hi. - Hi.

Good evening.

Do you have a cigarette, please?

- Thank you. - Novacek, write it down.

Mrs Milada, you'll have to explain a lot to us!

Yes, sure.

Hermann found out

I was having an affair with Novy and...

Thank you.

He invited him on some pretext,

they had a fight, and Karel...

Mr Novy...

he killed him with the statue he had in his study room.

He hit his head.

Where were you?

Novacek!

A second!

Go on.

Downstairs, in the parlour.

He came to me

and told me what happened.

Please, do you happen to have a cigarette?

Sure.

You sit down and write!

Thank you.

He thought we could throw the body off the balcony,

like a suicide, and I'd go to my parents' house.

Why did you agree?

I was scared.

Who threw the body down?

He did.

I just helped clean the room.

There was blood.

One moment.

Why did you lie to us

about your relationship with Lukas, Mr Herzog's son?

Novy came up with that, too.

And also with that painting, that nude.

He wanted us to frame Lukas.

Novy!

Yes, Novy.

We have to keep you here.

Guards!

What's wrong with you, man? Get a grip!

Hynek?

I'm not sleeping.

Novy was neither at home nor in the shop.

Martin thought he would be at the station.

And he was.

He was waiting with suitcases for the express train to Berlin.

Mrs Milada Herzog told us that you killed her husband.

But that... that's nonsense.

I've never been in their house.

You can't have any evidence for that.

But yes, we will.

Our colleague is already working on them.

Yes, because Milada made it all up to get back at me.

For what?

Herzog.

Doctor found out about our affair.

May I?

Sure.

He wanted to get a divorce,

change his will.

He wanted to evict Milada from the house and ruin my business.

He was a shrewd lawyer.

So I just got scared

and broke up with Milada.

And she wants to frame me now?

I think she killed him when they were arguing.

And you know that, or you just think so?

You lied to us about your relationship with Mrs Milada.

You made up the painting, the nude,

to make us think that she was having an affair with Dr Herzog's son,

and that he had a reason to kill him.

But she came up with that the very next day.

I didn't... I didn't ask,

I just wanted to help her.

You must have known that after your statement,

the investigation would focus on young Herzog.

And Mrs Herzog knew it, too.

You're getting tangled up in this, Mr Novy.

If you really were in Herzog's study room, we'll find out.

Confession is a mitigating circumstance.

But I have nothing to confess!

DAIRY

What's going on?

Julie's not well,

she spent all night in the toilet, she's coming down with something.

So she's not going to school.

Well, I hope it's nothing serious, that's all we need.

Hopefully.

She should eat normally.

She's always in a cafe, at her age!

And who knows if she smokes, too.

Definitely not.

Would you like some breakfast? I'll ask Eniko.

No, thank you.

I'm going to take a bath and get back to work.

Have you at least got him yet?

Hopefully.

Inspector!

Blood was found down on Novy's pants.

I found out from the tailor who sewed them that they were part of a suit.

I guess Novy threw away or burned down the jacket.

The blood must have been somewhere here as he...

as he was picking up the victim

and trying to throw him over the railing.

Okay.

Wait for me in the office.

- Go! - Yes.

Does he have any other head wound?

No, just the one on the right side.

It looks like he got hit by a left-handed person or something.

Maybe.

Well, thank you, professor.

You're welcome.

Goodbye.

Mr Novy...

sign your statement.

Please.

Let's bring in Mrs Herzog.

Is it alright?

Sure.

Thank you.

Take him away!

Mrs Herzog, it's about signing your statement.

Here it is.

- Do you insist on it? - Yes.

Mrs Herzog, you're under arrest.

I'll ask the public prosecutor to indict you for murdering your husband.

You killed your husband!

Otherwise, everything happened as you described.

Guards! Take her away!

Guards!

Havlik, handcuffs!

That's it.

Excuse me, Chief Inspector, but how did you find out?

Herzog had a wound on the right side of his head.

The murderer must have stood in front of him and hit him... like this.

That means it must have been a left-handed person.

Of the two, only she signed the statement with her left hand.

I hope to have it all written up

and a motion for indictment filed by tonight.

You have enough work to keep you busy.

But she was holding the cigarette in her right hand.

A woman, obviously!

Watch out for them, Novacek.

They'll get you to hell.

Pavlinka, what are you doing here?

Where's Toni?

Shh, she's sleeping.

Why aren't you sleeping?

Because...

Why are you arguing?

We're not arguing.

Not now, now you're coming home too late.

That's true.

You should come home so that you can at least kiss Pavlinka goodnight.

But I will... if you want to.

Pavlinka, go to bed,

Daddy and I have something to talk about.

- Good night. - Good night.

Come on.

Will you eat?

No. I've already eaten.

- Will you drink? - Yeah.

Let's get back on first-name terms again, okay?

Sure.

- Rudla. - Toni.

I have three conditions.

One: you're gonna stop making an idiot of me.

Two: you won't even look at another woman.

Sure.

Three: you're going on a trip with me and Pavlinka.

I don't care where, but it's gonna be soon and for the whole day.

I promise.

It takes six weeks to cure a clap,

you just caught it four weeks ago.

So 14 more days?

Good evening.

I came to apologise.

I'm sorry, Lukas.

I understand.

Bye.

Why should I accept your apology?

Even a cop can make a mistake sometimes.

So can a painter.

Will you have a drink with me now?

Thank you.
