honest.
But individually everyone tries to
turn his dishonesty inside out
into pure honesty. Seemingly to
justify himself and his actions.
Perhaps I am not right?
-I am willing to write the report.
-What?
I will write that I know
Shtirlitz for many years.
I can give any guarantees for him.
Go ahead, write it down.
To Mr. Muller, the chief of the
4th dept., gruppenfurer SS.
I consider von Shtirlitz
shtandartenfurer SS a true Aryan,
and devoted to the ideals of the
Fuhrer and the Nazi party, NSDAP.
I am requesting to permit me
not to be occupied by the investigation
of his work. Signed as
Obershturmbanfurer SS, Aysman.
Well done, what a good boy you are.
I always respected you and felt
with a complete confidence about you,
and now again I had a chance to
be convinced of your decency.
I thank you, gruppenfurer.
You shouldn’t thank me, but I
shall thank you instead.
Take the documents and compose a
favorable review about
Shtirlitz's past work. I don't
need to teach you how to do that.
He has skills of intelligence officer,
the vision of inspector, courage of
a true national- socialist etc.
How much time do you need to complete?
To verify everything and document
correctly I will need seven work days.
You have five days and not more.
And do not forget separately to
beautifully the role of Shtirlitz
in the work with that... priest.
Kaltenbrunner believes that through
the priests' one could attempt to
establish contacts with the West.
Now go and have a nap. I can not
allow you 7 hours for a sleep, but 5.
-Sweet dreams!
-I thank you.
Hail! - Hail!

Your ID please.
They block the roads to the East
and South. They are doing it fast.
- What is going on?
- We were called on the red alert.
Looking for radio spy operators.
"Yes, quick response." - thought Shtirlitz,
"It is naive to think that way,
but it is correct, if one would
be an amateur, who does not know
Germany, but I  know it. "Braggart. Boaster".
Why? Not a braggart, if I wouldn't
know Germany that well, I would drive
Ervin right here, but I drove
through Naykeln, - thought Shtirlitz,
- Would you like to look in the trunk?
- In front are large road holes,
please be careful, shtandartenfurer.
-Thanks. I'll try to be careful.
It's like some one said once
- "What a great guy I am!"
Yes, what a great guy I am!
Hail to me. Hail Shtirlitz!
Good evening, Mr. Bolzen.
Here are your favorite cigarettes.
Here are matches, too, sir.
Shtirlitz frequently was visiting
this little restaurant with the
name "Elephant". He now could not
even recall his first time in here.
That was over 10 years ago.
There was an order for him to go to
Spain. But he did not know that yet.
Moscow knew about that and arranged in
this restaurant a meeting with his wife.
Our victory is not questionable.
How are you doing, Gabi.
-So, our victory is not questionable, right?
-Yes, of course!
I am very happy about it.
- And where is frau Zaurich?
- Her friend, an old woman, got sick.
She is bringing her some food.
Would you like to play chess with me?
Gabi, as a chess player you are
not interesting to me.
I do know that.
I'll try seeing you later tonight through.
May I, gruppenfurer?
Listen carefully, Holtoff,
I am giving you an order of
extraordinary secrecy and importance.
"This one will eat dirt - thought Muller,
just to get ahead of everybody".
"This one still likes our games because
he doesn't understand them fully yet".
"He will put everything up side down.
And that's exactly what I need now!
At least I will have something
to trade with Shellenberg later on".
You will carefully study these documents.
Here is documented work of
shtandartenfurer Shtirlitz
for the past year.
This related to the weapons
of retribution.
The atomic weapon and
the German physicist Runge.
Honestly, the case is weak,
rotten materials, but
you'll try to dig out
anything out of it.
