- Yes

Joseph, what's wrong.

Joseph?

Joseph?

Did your really think, we'd let

you get away?

What are you doing here?

-You. And your treasure.

Ellis.

Ellis.

Ellis.

Ellis. Here, on the jeep.

Ronnie.

-Hi, Ellis. Join us.

How did you get here?

-Just stand in front.

A bit of laughing and pushing around.

Look, my new boyfriend.

He has everything a girl wants.

Nylons, Chocolate and whiskey.

Oh, I love him.!

Come ride with me.

No, I have no time.

Ok, see you soon.

Bye. Bye.

[Traitor]

[Whore]

One moment, we're coming.

Come, Wim. The canadians are here.

No. You're still alive?

Yes, strange huh, with all those people

trying to kill us.

I thought Franken had shot you.

Surely he told you we got away?

Franken?

Tell me? Me?

We've been in hiding for weeks. We just got home

half an hour ago.

Who says you are not trying to leave?

-What do you mean child?

I am about to be picked up by

canadian field security

Good, then we'll join you.

We'll wait in your office.

-Ludwig, what's wrong with you?

Go inside!

Sit down.

Sit down.

So you think I am guilty for

the desastrous attack?

Yes and for the extradiction of

your jewish clients.

How dare you. Most of them knew

him for years. They were friends.

What would be my gain?

By stealing of what they entrusted you with.

You and Franken.

You betrayed him where the microphone was.

The hold up was your idea.

You let Hans and his men

get slaughtered.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

I wasn't the only one.

Kuipers knew all this as well.

But nobody will have his own son killed

Every man has unknown deapths.

May I show you something?

While we were in hiding. My wife

and I tried to put things in perspective.

I examined my agenda.

And we came to a radical conclusion.

Didn't we darling?

And that is?

You'll have to join us by going to the

canadian police.

Just tell me.

As a lawyer, I can't.

I have to keep you unprejudiced.

That will be the canadians.

Every suspect deserves a fair trial.

Even the biggest bastard?

Even those.

We're coming.

You?

Wim?

Wim?

Stay here.

Look.

-God damn, that's Mntze. Get him.

Mntze, we've got Mntze.

We have Mntze.

God damn. There's Ellis de Vries.

Come with me.

Ellis de Vries.

Over here.

I've got you. B*tch.

Captain Mntze.

Take of his cuffs, John.

Please sit down.

In this report a collaboration is being

described between...

...Mntze and a certain Mr. Kuipers.

Why is this man gettin involved Colonel?

General Kutner has very kindly offered

to clear up this mess.

Who is this Kuipers.

-A Stalinist in heart and soul.

He and Mntze haven been conspiring

in the last few months.

To avoid bloodshed.

He was negotiating with the communists,

Colonel, our future enemy.

You've got never Kutner.

I consider Mntze a liar, who will

do anything to save his own skin.

Of course, who wouldn't?

We'll get to the bottom of this.

Take him to his cell.

If you allow me.

John.

This is a death warrant.

Mntze has been sentenced to death

for high treason.

The rulings of german law are none of my

concern. Therefore the rulings are null and void.

You have been misinformed. British

military law does recognise the jurisdiction

...of german tribunals in the field

Even after capitulation.

In article 153, to be exact.

Are you suggesting we shoot a witness?

Your own general Foulkes has allowed us...

... to discipline our own men.

You can call him and ask.

If you refuse to carry out a Mntze's sentence

I will file a complaint with general Foulkes.

Which you will no doubt regret.

You know what generals are like.

MP.

Get him out of here.

Attention.

Aim.

Fire.

Get up, you're going to church.

Come on, bring your sh*t buckets.

Go on, move.

-Church is up stairs.

Come on.

Hey b*tch, sh*t is over there.

Move along.

You pull it up. Hurry up.

Listen ot the voice of God.

Maybe you can change your ways.

Look ahead.

Hey, silence.

silence.

We come to see traitors.

Heads up, let me see your faces.

Look at them.

-Dirty rotten heads.

Maybe the rest has some to offer.

-Take of your clothes.

Guys take off your pants.

-Bare ass.

All women naked on top.

I wann see some tits.

This too.

Take it off

She sang for the krauts.

She'll certainly sing for us.

Sing for you? Never.

- Of course you do. Everybody sings.

Sing.

Do you want me to lose face?

No way. Dirty Kraut b*tch.

Dirty whore.

Hit her. Hit her.

Take cover, move away from the girl.

Damn, it stinks.

Who's got some perfume?

Stinky slut.

Dirty stinky slut.

Make way for the fireman.

Stay away from my hose.

Roll it up.

-Soldiers have nothing to say down here.

I am the boss here.

I am commander Akkermans.

of the Prince's staff

This is a godforesaken scandal

This is a disgrace.

You're just as bad as the nazi's.

Within 24 hours, you are out.

Translate, commander Akkermans.

-Yes, sir.

Dirty fascists, you'll be out of here within

24 hours.

And those punks up there,

get out of here, now!

See to this poor girl.

-Sir.

Ellis it's over. Come.

It's over. Come.

I want to leave.

Come honey. It's over.

Just a moment, Mrs. de Vries.

Your personal belongings.

Could you check?

van Smaal?

There goes the doctor.

That's doctor Akkermans.

He was in the resistance.

Long live the doctor.

Chocolate. Chocolate.

Here, don't spend it all.

Supplies are still scarce.

# oranje boven, oranje boven

leve de koningin

I want to show you something.

How did you get it?

-Franken tried to get away with it.

Everything he robbed from

the murdered jews.

I got this from my father,

for my first performance.

That bastard Franken, tried to

make you an accomplice, huh?

I'll talk to Kuipers about that.

Or higher up with the Prince.

I'll explain.

They'll never believe you.

Everything will be alright.

A happy end. A drink?

One more thing.

Mntze got caught. I want to see him.

Haven't you heard?

-What?

It's too insane for words.

-What happened?

A canadian dick allowed...

...that the krauts could finish

the death sentence.

Doesn't it ever stop?

Ellis?

This will calm you down.

Come, lie down.

Feeling better?

Doctor, Doctor...

Insuline. Too much insuline.

That will put you to sleep. Forever.

Doctor Akkermans. Doctor Akkermans.

The 'hero' hast to show himself.

Stay there. Soon you'll see your family again.

and who knows, maybe Mntze too.

Doctor, Doctor...

Stop her.

She's a patient, she's ill.

Ellis. Ellis.

Out of my way.

Stop her. She's dangerous.

Let me go.

Let me go.

Goddamnit, let me go.

I'll get you, you whore.

Let me go, bastards, let me go!

Golden ring, number 23

We found him.

Gerben, I think you'd better go.

Can our own people do this?

I don't want the krauts to touch him.
