- Hello?

- Sam, this is Edna.

Good morning, darling!

I can't make lunch, but will you

have dinner this evening?

- Sounds lovely.

- I thought you'd like that.

Will you pick me up?

Here?

- About eight?

- Fine. Bye-bye.

- Does he suspect you?

- Why on earth should he?

Come in.

Oh, no!

You've been burgled!

- My pearls. They've gone.

- Were they insured?

No. They were beautiful.

They were my mother's.

- And the rest of your jewelry?

- It's all junk.

- Is there anything else missing?

- No.

- No. That appears to be all.

- Maybe we scared him off.

Oh, look at the mess here!

I'd like to get my hands

on the pig who did this.

- Look at all this!

- Guess what?

We'll have a drink and then

I'll help you clear up.

Here you are.

Otto Rukel, wake up.

What have you been doing? I've

been waiting for three hours!

- Did she hire you to do me as well?

- Me?

It's an amateur job. The top drawer

was opened first.

Did you find anything?

She gets $300 a week from the Discount Bank

in Geneva.

She has a US passport in the name

of Samantha Steel,

an Austrian passport for Anna Stein,

an Israeli passport for Hanna Stahl.

- Lists of men, names, addresses...

- In the wall safe?

Ja, in a diary! How much money they have.

- Not one less than a million Marks!

- Where's the diary?

You told me not to take anything. I

was photographing when you rang.

Where's the film?

Where's my money?

- Sell the pearls you stole.

- What pearls? I took nothing, Harry!

- Really, Otto?

- On my honor, Harry.

Here you are.

- Thank you.

- Thank you, Otto.

Any time, Harry.

Kreutzman will be in touch

with you tonight.

- Meet me at Chez Nous at 11:00.

- Chez what?

- The Chez Nous. It's a nightclub.

- OK. See you.

- Hi, Johnnie.

- Hello, Ed.

Samantha Steel, Johnnie Vulkan.

Very happy to meet you, Samantha.

Edith, this is Edmund Dorf.

I'll just get rid of this.

- What's he saying?

- He's...

Telephone.

Hello, Dorf speaking.

Follow the man with the green carnation.

- We're on. Keep Samantha amused.

- OK.

See you later, love.

Mr. Dorf.

Vulkan tells us you want to move a body.

- Correct.

- Place of origin?

Dresden. But we can get him to East Berlin

any time you like.

- Dead or alive?

- Alive.

- Willing or unwilling?

- Willing.

- Conscious?

- Yes.

- Nationality?

- Why not give me a form to fill in?

- Who's your client?

- That's our business.

That affects our price.

How old is he?

- 65.

- You've made a mistake, Mr. Dorf.

If he's over 60, he can cross

the Wall legally.

And you don't need us. Unless

he's being watched!

That affects our price.

35,000 or $100,000. Half in advance,

half on delivery.

You're joking! There's an appropriation
