we do not punish honest people,
who didn't do anything wrong.
-Invent some other death cause for him.
-All right, I will come up with something for him.
It's hard to invent death causes, when it
is for the driver of the deputy of the Fuhrer.
I thought, you could be a way more
inventive in that area than me.
But if you think that I should invent it
myself, I will come up with something new.
Just come up with it faster.
I am not intending to keep alive
no double dealers like that driver.
Shtirlitz left for the Swiss border, in order to
prepare a secret crossing point. "A window".
He, just like Shellenberg, considered that
the legal transfer of pastor through the border
could create the undesirable publicity.
This entire operation was
accomplished behind the Gestapo.
Exposing pastor Shlag, as a conspirator,
after he would do his part in the play,
must be realized, according to Shelenberg's
plan, personally, by Shtirlitz.
A few days before the departure,
with an approval from Schulenburg,
Shtirlitz was preparing a list of candidates
in co-conspirators for the pastor.
All of those people were zealous and
devoted servants of German Nazism.
They are, so-called "conspirators", who
actually, sent our dear pastor to Bern.
They are from the department
of Mr. Ribbentrop.
Krauze, von Gitts, Blyutner.
The people of Goering, from Luftwaffe.
I selected these diplomats and pilots so
that they respectively would compromise
Ribbentrop and Goering.
Moreover, Shvalpeff is Bormann’s man.
That is also good in our game.
A Bormann’s agent in the Foreign Ministry.
What a dirty conspirator!
All these people, among other things,
in the different times were recruited
by the Gestapo. As informants.
This is very good, Shtirlitz.
This is promising.
Muller must be held on the bridle, and
this must be a sufficiently strong bridle.
Thus, we compromise here in Berlin
and in the West those people,
who search for peace besides us.
And in the West they clearly demarcate
between the Gestapo, the Bormann’s office
and our department. The Intelligence.
It will beneficial, when we expose
this plot, for us to say that
all these criminals are connected
with the Gestapo.
Coffee?
By this train, which plied inside the corridor
from Scandinavia to Switzerland, nowadays
mostly only diplomats were able to travel.
Shtirlitz occupied seat# 16.
A seat# 46 in the next train car
was occupied by a professor from Sweden
with a simple Scandinavian
last name, Mr. Svedeborg.
- Are you a German?
- Unfortunatelly. I am.
- Why did you say "unfortunately"?
- Because they don't bring me coffee twice.
Coffee is given here twice only
to those, with foreign passports.
I am German too, but they gave
me coffee the second time.
I have a cognac.
Would you like a drink with me?
Thanks. I do have a cognac too.
Then you do not have good salami.
I do have some salami too.
This means that we both are well supplied.
- What is your military rank?
- I am not in the army. I am a diplomat.
- I am an adviser in the Foreign Ministry.
- So, you are the one whom everyone hates.
- You're guilty for all we are having right now!
- But why?
Because you determine our foreign policy.
You brought us to the war for the two Fronts
in the East and in the West at the same time.
Prozt! To ur hlth!
Prozit! To your health.
You must be from Meklenburg region?
- Yes. That's right. How you did know?
- By your words "prozt" and "To ur hlth".
- All northerners economize on the vowels.
- This is very funny, but true.
Could not I see you yesterday at the
Ministry of Aviation by some chance?
No, I wasn't there yesterday.
Shtirlitz lied.
He indeed was there yesterday.
He was at the Ministry of Aviation
along with pastor Shlag.
A strange property of my physiogomy:
- Everybody thinks they just saw me somewhere.
- Because you have a stereotypical face.
- You are similar to many others.
- Is this a good or a bad thing?
