Salt and Fire Page #3

remove your mask?

You are compromised,

aren't you?

Krauss? You said your name

was aristides.

In fact, if facts count here,

it isn't aristides.

So it is krauss.

Yes, and no.

And how were you able

to get here so quickly?

- We have our ways.

- And who is "we"?

I would like to know.

"We"... that is basically me.

I am the brain.

I am leading a delegation.

I am responsible

for its members.

Where are they?

Are they all right?

I can assure you they are fine.

I accept no assurances

from an unidentified man

with no name and no face.

I want to see them, now.

Well, hopefully...

...the time will come when there

are no more secrets between us.

Dr. Arnold meier

and Dr. fabio cavani

are both here at the compound.

How is Dr. meier?

I saw your men hurt him.

He is bruised,

but otherwise subdued.

Meaning what?

As Dr. meier

proved to be so combative,

we had to calm his heroism

a little bit.

Krauss, why don't you

show professor sommerfeld

the food she should avoid.

Go on, have a look.

Please do not eat these,

even if offered

with every indication

of warm hospitality.

You gave this to my delegation?

We did nothing.

Our guests ate it...

...and then they came down

with a local form of...

- What's happened to them?

Say it.

Diarrhea.

Krauss...

...why don't you show our guest

to her quarters?

life in a wheelchair

has its comforts,

but not all the time.

I see.

It's okay.

One day I shall walk again.

Dr. meier, Dr. cavani,

please come to the window.

I... I'm dying.

- No, you're not.

- I'm dying, I'm--

- no, you're not.

- I'm dying.

- No, you're not.

- I'm dying!

The dumplings, it must have

been the dumplings.

Are you hurt?

Yes, but I am going to be fine.

It's just my stomach.

I've got

the dresden of diarrhea.

It's a horde of protozoans

swirling around

my intestinal tract.

I may be dying.

I may be dying.

The noblest place

for a man to die

is the place

he dies the deadest.

This is

the mother of all diarrhea.

Take care.

Keep yourself hydrated

and get some rest.

Professor sommerfeld,

I wish I could help you.

Please abstain from gossiping

in that ugly language.

I'm fine,

i can take care of myself,

of my situation,

of our situation.

Let me try.

- Madame...

...please follow me.

Your quarters

are in the adjacent courtyard.

this way.

Ay, ay...

Ay, ay...

Laura, you look a mess.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Rest assured.

This food is safe to eat.

Thank you, krauss.

Half for you, half for me.

You choose.

Excuse me

for taking your share,

but I'm hungry.

And I'm sure...

...you didn't abduct me

to poison me.

Not at all.

I'm glad to see you eating.
