Atlantic>> hotel, in three days.
Send your terms to this address.
Urgen.
Pleischner accomplished
Stirlitz' first assignment.
Here you go, 2 franks.
In a day this message will be read
in Moscow.
Through Wolf in Bern, Himmler
entered into negotiations with Dulles.
Yustas.
Pleischner was on his way
to a secret flat
at the address, given to him
by Stirlitz.
He had two hours before the meeting.
There was an ampoule with poison
in this cigarette.
Pleischner had to use it
as a last resort,
when there would be no other
escape.
Now it all seemed so naive,
a kind of kids' game.
Here, in Switzerland, where people
hadn't had wars for 80 years,
all that was happening to him
and to others there, in Germany,
seemed nothing but a nightmare.
Flower Street.
Otto asked me to tell you,
that he waited for your call...
last night.
Come on in.
And Pleischner entered the flat,
though he was not supposed to do it,
without getting the counter-sign:
<>
Thus, that was his second error.
Well?
How is he there?
Here.
It's all written in here.
Excuse me.
Make yourself comfortable, take
off your coat, I'll be right back.
The intoxicating air of freedom
played a joke on Professor Pleischner.
The Soviet spy's secret address
was uncovered by the fascists.
And they were waiting for guests here.
The first guest to come
was Stirlitz' contact,
Professor Pleischner.
This should be rushed
to our embassy.
Take the keys to the back door.
And don't make any noise, remember,
we have a creaky door.
Tell them at our embassy
to place this guy
under surveillance.
I'll try to hold him up
and get him talking.
He's an amateur,
and, probably, is just being used.
I'll try to stir him up.
Go ahead.
We're having beautiful weather here.
And how are you doing there?
How's the boss?
Is he fine?
Yes. Everything's OK.
- Want some coffee?
- Thank you, with pleasure.
- Are you comfortable in the hotel?
- Yes, quite.
And how about the <>?
My room's on the 2nd floor
and faces the back yard.
In Germany we don't have what
you have here.
These bastards sell real dish-water
to their people.
And here they sell authentic
Brazilian coffee.
Yes...
I haven't had such coffee
for 10 years.
A long-forgotten taste.
Some Greeks taught me to drink
strong coffee with cold water.
Want to try?
I've never had
coffee with cold water.
Contrasting temperatures and tastes
create a very special sensation.
And it lessens the load on the heart.
Really? Very interesting.
What did he ask you to say
in words?
What?
What did he ask you to say to me
in words?
Nothing, just to hand over the ampoule.
Strange.
Why?
I thought he'd tell me
when he would be coming.
He didn't say anything to me.
I forgot to ask you. Perhaps
you're hungry?
No, I had a very substantial breakfast.
How about money?
Thank you, I have enough
for a start.
If you need money, don't hesitate
to come.
Surely, I can't give much,
but I'll always
find some money
for you to get by.
Thank you.
By the way, did you check
if they were tailing you?
Tailing?
- What's this, following?
- Right.
I didn't pay any attention, you know.
That's careless of you.
Very careless.
Didn't he instruct you on it?
He did instruct me.
But you know, for the first time
in many years,
especially after the camp,
I felt free
and, you know, I, kind of,
got intoxicated.
Thank you for reminding me
about it.
You mustn't ever forget about it.
The police are cunning here,
very cunning.
Okay.
Do you have anything else
to say?
Me? Nothing.
Give me your ID then.
But he said I must always have
my ID with me.
Did he say that from now on you were
supposed to follow my orders?
No.
Right, that's in the coded message
you brought me from him.
We'll think of the best pattern of
accomplishing the mission.
What are you going to do now?
I'll get back to the hotel,
lie in bed and try to have a
