You're right.

Some things are better left unsaid.

Thank you very much.

Ladies and gentlemen.

We are fortunate to have with us tonight,

a singer, whose great talent

is exceeded only by his devotion

to his country.

He truly has the gift of song.

A golden voice. Inspired talent and...

Is there something wrong?

I was afraid this might happen.

General Streck of the High Command

is a most fervent admirer,

and owns a complete set of his works.

He is a very shy and gentle man,

but perhaps we could persuade him

to sing for us.

Shall we ask him?

I better do what they want.

I promised my manager.

Thank you, sir.

Watch the change

in the second chorus.

Oh, my God.

Your hog balls, sir.

Cedric!

- What have they done to you?

- It was a trap!

They must have known

I was staying at the Howard Johnson's.

- But who did this?

- Never mind about that.

We've got to rescue your father

before it's too late.

But what are we going to do?

I was...

...supposed to go to the ballet tonight,

to meet a man called "The Torch".

Thank you.

He's the leader of the Resistance.

He'll help us find your father.

- I'll go.

- No, you can't go. It's too dangerous.

I must! He'll be tortured.

All right, but be very careful at the ballet.

Where is the ticket?

In the glove compartment.

Can you reach it from the inside?

How about the other hand?

No, that's not it. Let me try.

Here it is.

Come on, we've got to get out of here.

- Shouldn't we wait for the police?

- That was the police!

In here.

We can get out this way.

- Wait. First you can explain.

- I'm not sure I can.

I only know I have put you in great danger.

Trust me. You must come with me.

I don't know what trouble you're in,

but don't worry about me.

I'm a guest of the government.

I can explain everything.

But you're mistaken. They'll put you in...

Go while you still can.

They can't do anything to me.

Martin, boy am I glad to see you.

I've been here 20 minutes already.

Nick, I've tried everything.

The Embassy, the German Government,

the consulate.

I even talked to the UN Ambassador.

It's no use.

I just can't bring my wife to orgasm.

That's a shame, Martin.

Have you tried one of these?

Thanks. I'll give it a whirl.

I'm getting worried about this place.

I don't think they've even heard of a trial.

All I know is, after you left the cafe

last night, I met a girl.

Later at the ballet she was alone.

Then I see this guy with a gun at her head.

He's looking like he's gonna kill her

and might have if I hadn't stepped in.

There's got to be someone you can call,

to straighten this mess out.

I figure they've got to let you out

for your concert, Friday night.
