1,500.
Last week, it was 1,600.
I'm getting slower.
I'm not getting any younger.
I must put some sausages in the stew.
Father is sick of your salads.
If you knew how much poison
there is in meat and sausages!
Nothing but chemicals!
I know what proper nutrition is.
Dad likes his meat, Helene,
and he works for what he likes.
People just don't know
what's good for them.
But go ahead.
It's yourselves you're harming.
One man's meat is another man's poison.
Dad wants what he's always been used to.
You can't change him.
And why should you?
He's healthy.
You won't make a vegetarian out of Dad.
I don't want to, Mom.
they're eating.
Ernst can tell you all about
the chemicals in sausages nowadays.
Nothing but chemicals and preservatives!
Yes, yes.
Franz was telling me about Finland.
It rains all the time, he said...
and it's as cold as ice...
especially now in spring.
But we've booked, Ernst!
Besides, heat's no good in my condition.
I need a mild climate.
And anyway, better cold than hot.
Anyway, it's quiet there
and that's the main thing.
The whole year, I stand in the cold-store
and I have to spend...
my vacation at the North Pole! It's stupid!
You must think of our child, Ernst.
I know why we're going to Finland.
If you don't think,
I have to think for two.
Do you think your Ernst would be
so strong if he didn't eat meat...
just your salads?
Don't worry, Mom. I'll be OK.
I just meant, because of the climate...
How often have I told you
you should retrain for another job?
Then you wouldn't have to stand
in that cold-store. It's unhealthy, anyway.
Ernst always wanted to be a butcher.
You have to be able to change your life.
Everyone knows that.
We are interrupting our program
for a special news flash.
At a chemical plant near Frankfurt...
beat his personnel manager to death...
and then committed suicide
on a machine in the production hall.
The cause of this terrible tragedy
is still unclear.
The police are continuing
their investigations.
And now, we return to our music program.
The things that happen nowadays!
What's keeping Dad?
It's past 6:
00.He'll come. He always has.
"At a chemical plant," they said.
Is a tire factory a chemical plant?
Sure it's a chemical plant.
Everything's chemicals nowadays.
Where do you think all the dirt
and pollution come from?
That'll be Dad.
He must have forgotten his keys.
I don't have much time.
There's something I have to tell you,
Emma.
Something terrible has happened.
To Hermann?
Yes, he's...
He killed himself. At the plant.
He's dead?
Yes, but...
there's worse to come.
Before that...
Before that, he killed someone.
Beat him to death.
The boss's son, Dr. Berthold.
At the chemical plant.
Hermann must have heard something
about mass layoffs...
and he just blew a fuse.
Telephone for you, dear.
I think it's your mother.
I told her not to phone
during working hours.
Hennecke hates it.
She said it's important, dear.
She's all worked up.
OK, I'll go.
Hello, Mom!
Corinna?
Sorry to phone you, but-
Mother, you know that...
Yes, but listen...
it's about Dad.
- You must come right away.
- What's happened?
Corinna!
Dad's dead.
He killed himself.
And there's something else.
Oh, Mother, don't cry!
You mustn't cry.
Just a moment.
Something's happened to my father.
Mom, take care of yourself!
Don't get upset!
I'll come as soon as I can.
My Hermann.
I couldn't even see him.
And you know what they're saying?
That he's a murderer.
