The Hessen Conspiracy Page #2

Synopsis: 1945 - Castle Kronberg, outside Frankfurt, is turned into a 'country club' for victorious American officers. The cynical Colonel Jack Durant and the dazzling beautiful Lieutenant Kathleen Nash uncover the crown jewels of Germany - more diamonds, rubies, emeralds, sapphires and pearls than are gathered in any one place outside the Tower of London. Nash and Durant manage to get the gems to New York, where they must deal with gangsters to fence the loot. To make matters worse for the two renegade officers, Princess Sophie discovers the theft of her jewels and complains to American army headquarters. It now turns out that her brother fought for the Allies and is about to marry the future Queen of England. With double-crossing gangland figures trying to control the gems and the army closing in on them, will Kathy Nash and Jack Durant stay true to one other and their plan? Or will one sell the other out?

He was drunk, like you.

But, he said he had come to the build walls

and holes for hiding things, big things.

The paintings,

the china and maybe even...

What? Maybe even what?

You have seen the painting

of the Princess?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, Mike, I'm sure gonna miss you

on my doubles team.

Could've made it to Forest Hills,

I'm telling you.

Gonna miss the smell of that

damn pipe of yours Major.

You give 'em hell up there

in Nuremberg, you hear?

Now, I got you your own suite with bath

at the Adlon.

Say, thanks.

If it's getting around army red tape,

Dave Pallard's your man.

Well, so long.

Take care.

What's all this?

Oh, that's just a little token

of our appreciation

from the good people here in Dodge City.

Y'all take now, Sheriff.

Later that week,

we learned the Japs had surrendered.

That called for another party.

Only some folks weren't attending.

Roy, we've been here way too long.

Are you sure this guy knows

what he's doing?

It is nearby, Fraulein Nash.

I'm sure it is in the east wing.

That's what he told me.

Quiet!

Well, now...

What can we learn from this?

What are you doing here, sir?

I could ask you the same thing Lieutenant.

Well, I can see that

brilliant minds think alike.

And who is this?

That's my Kraut friend.

Your what?

Are you out of your mind?

See? The cement is fresh.

Here. It's here, I know it.

- Are you sure?

- Ja.

Don't you think they're going to hear you?

Did you hear the night he found the wine?

Get going, Roy.

Okay.

Help me now.

Sheisse!

Yeah!

Mein Gott!

Holy sh*t!

Princess Sophie's jewels!

Not just hers. The Kaisarin regalia.

The what?

The crown jewels of Germany.

Those emeralds were a gift from the Kaiser.

And this, this necklace

was a birthday present from the tsar.

And this... the White Star of Africa.

The biggest diamond the world

has ever seen.

Jesus Christ.

Alright, listen to me.

You two are in deep sh*t

unless you do exactly as I say.

Well, what about you, sir?

Me?

I came down here

and I discovered you looting with a Kraut.

How do think that's gonna play?

Well, I'll give 'em my side of the story.

You do that and none of us

will see this stuff ever again.

Play it my way and you'll be rich.

Now, get this trunk up

to the lieutenant's room.

Don't let an yone see you.

You. Help him.

You breathe so much as a word of this,

I'll have you before a firing squad,

goddamn Nazi.

I never was a Nazi.

Shut up! Now, get going.

Come on.

Clear up when you've finished.

Maybe I underestimated you.

Maybe you did.

Oh, you should have seen them, Mike.

Like pirate treasure I read about as a kid,

only this time it was real,
