Otherwise people will understand how useless they are.
-You are not right, administrative assistants are necessary.
He is like a beautiful hunting dog.
It is possible to talk to him and if
he has any brains everyone will envy.
I knew one assistant, who
performed the role of impresario.
He told to everybody about the
brilliance of his manager,
finally he had to be killed in
an arranged car crash.
-He was so very melodious. It irritated.
-Did you come up with that right now or is this the truth?
-Certainly it just came up with that.
-It is funny.
What about your colonel Krol story?
Is it a lie too?
I am joking.
Hail Hitler, friends.
I am so glad to see you, guys.
-Again contemplating some new insidiousness’s?
-Sure, we are always insidious with something. Aren't we?
-Our insidiousness is nothing
compared to yours.
We are simple celestial angels
in comparison to you.
It is pleasant some times, that
they consider you a devil.
People die, memory about them
remains. Even such a memory.
Well done, Holman. Everything
in order and done fast.
Every one has his special way!
Don't you think?
Funny, Dietrich had freckles,
but I never noticed them.
Did you know him?
-Your adjutant on the special commissions.
-A complete change of guards.
Let's talk about the
serious business, Shtirlitz.
I now need your pastor.
Pastor Shlags, isn't it?
Is he still alive and healthy?
Is he still living with his nephews
and sister on Gartenshtrasse, 2?
He is living there and is healthy.
I need your pastor.
I want to send him to Switzerland.
Excellent. but I hope, you do not
want to send him to a mountain resort?
Not at all. He will go there
searching for peace.
So you mean that the pastor...
would come back if we take his
sister with the children as hostages?
I think, without a doubt he will return.
One ton large bombs, not less than that.
-Are they flying away? Or they not?
-They are flying away, but just to take more bombs.
So, are you sure that after the
pastor returns he will not talk
about the fact that you sent him
there for establishing the contacts?
It depends who will ask him questions.
It would be a good idea, if you
would happen the tape recordings
of his conversation, and he himself would
somehow gets killed during an air bombing.
-I will think about it.
-For how long?
I would request a permission to
think the idea through.
-How long will you be thinking the idea through?
-By tonight I will come with a solution.
This is good.
Does Reichsfurer know about your idea
of sending the pastor to search for peace?
- No. Let's say "No". Is that clear?
- Completely clear.
I am so glad that you so accurately
understand everything.
- It is very pleasant for me to work
with you, Shtirlitz. - For me too.
-You look so angry?
-I look angry? I am not angry.
You know, when I am angry,
I look much gloomier.
Now I am simply trying to think.
If everything turns out right you will
be able to rest in the mountains for 5 days.
There are excellent ski slops, the
snow is blue, the sunburn is brown.
We forgot during the war about
so many wonderful things in life.
First of all, we forgot ourselves.
Like coats in the cloakroom
after a heavy drinking on Easter.
- How long ago did you start writing poems?
- I never wrote poems at all. Honestly!
A small lie gives birth to a
large distrust.
I swear. I wrote everything in
my life, besides the poems.
- Why? You can't rhyme?
- I have idiosyncrasy to the rhyme.
He was today on the brink of a
complete failure and discovery.
Now, when 2 hours passed after
he left Himmler's reception area,
he more than ever understood, that
he was on the brink of his failure.
And nevertheless, he considered that
the today's day may be
one of the most successful
days of his life.
Firstly because after what happened today,
he still was alive. Secondly because
he knew now that the negotiations
have started
and they were started by Himmler.
He
