Europa Page #5

I'm affraid we won't have time for

a game of chess tonight, Colonel.

-Coffee, Alex?

-No, no, later.

I've got some information on you.

I know about your AWOL.

I have come to ask you to do us

a small favour.

What's that?

Well, your job with the railways

could be an advantage to us.

I don't know what you've heard

about the "Werewolves",

but you should know that sabotage

is still going on

as well as liquidations of Germans

who cooperate with the Allies.

All I'm asking you to do is

to keep an eye open for us

and report back to us.

Here, I brought you this.

Excuse me, sir,

but I can't accept a gun.

Why not?

If I wanted to carry a weapon

I would've come here earlier.

I wouldn't make a move in this

country without a weapon.

Okay, it's a deal.

You keep an eye on the nazis for me.

I'll go and have that coffee with Max.

Colonel Harris?

My father apologizes

that he cannot bid you goodnight

in person.

He is indisposed.

Just see to it, Larry, that your father

fills out that questionaire.

I've made arrangements

for someone to come

and verify it on Friday.

Come and sit down.

Father is taking his bath.

He's always retiring to his bath

when he is upset.

The Colonel is forcing him to fill out

this stupid questionaire.

So what's it all about?

They ask you about your relation

with the Nazi party.

And father has to have

a perfectly clean record

if he wants to retain his position.

And the Colonel knows father

will have to lie to keep Zentropa.

Your uncle wants to leave now.

He's waiting for you in the hall.

Goodbye, Frulein Hartmann.

There's one thing I want

to confess to you.

I fooled you a little the other day

when I pretended that

the tunnel frightened me.

It was the sight of those hanged

people what touched me so deeply.

After all they were only

fighting for their country

like most of the world

has been doing.

And suddenly it's a crime.

You have left the house.

Behnd you s the German famly.

You see before you the questonare

that s desgned to test

the gult of the country.

Frday, you wll be back.

Herr Kessler!

I'm a friend of the Hartmanns.

They were sure I could ask you

a small favour.

My nephews are going to Cologne.

Would you please look after them?

They're being picked up

at the station.

Here are their tickets.

Here you are, sir.

The children are with me.

O.K.

You can stay in here.

Compartment 13 has ordered

a bottle of sekt.

The name is Ravenstein.

By the way, no guests on duty.

I'll see to it that a fine of 7 mark

is deducted from your salary.

-Sekt for Ravenstein.

-Here.

We're celebrating.

The Allied command in Frankfurt

has appointed my husband mayor.

-Congratulations.
