If you really want to hear my tale,
then you must first get used to the fact
that it's not a pleasant story to hear.
Oh, pardon. Allow me; Francis.
I belong to a species which is
easily overlooked by humans.
Here it is, our new home.
Okay, Francis. Come on out.
The thing I hate most in life is moving.
But Gustav, my life partner,
usually takes no consideration.
He's a studied archaeologist,
specialising in Egyptian divinities,
but earns our feed by writing trashy novels.
Whenever he runs out of ideas, he moves.
He thinks it helps.
Boy, is this heavy!
Now where's the key?
Ah, there.
Heavenly! Just needs a little renovating.
Come on, Francis! Or do I have
to carry you over the threshold?
me like a sledgehammer.
Quick as a flash, I realised that
this unpleasant odour did not rise
from the foundation of the building,
but crept down from the upper floors.
It was an odour bouquet of pharmaceuticals,
veterinary practice, and toxic waste!
And I should've never set paw in the place.
Francis, isn't it beautiful?
This will be a blast!
Renovating, rehabilitating, modernising...
Ah, there's still a lot of work in here!
Yes, ah, here! That's a good spot.
And the litter box? Yes, let's see.
Oh, it's lovely here.
Look, Francis. Old stucco!
Ah, the china, where to put that...?
What I saw there was,
so to speak, my welcoming gift.
There he lay, a black brother,
Only he wasn't sleeping.
Can opener.
Can opener?
What do you mean?
Well, it was the damned
can openers. They did it!
They gave little Sascha
You mean humans?
Did you see it?
Sh*t, no! But who does something
like that but a f***ing can opener,
who good for nothing more than
opening our cans for us! Sh*t, yeah.
This is already the fourth cold sack.
You mean this is already the fourth corpse?
Guess you're new here, eh?
You moving into that garbage dump?
Nice place.
No. It wasn't a can opener.
His neck is completely lacerated.
What do you call yourself, smartass?
Francis.
That's all I need! Archie.
- Cheers!
- Cheers, Archie!
Isn't this great? Honestly now.
Fantastic. This atmosphere!
I was fascinated from the beginning!
Really!
A doctor's office?
Would explain the chemical smell.
Don't you think that parquet is
a bit much for me, Archie?
But parquet is the least you can do, Gustav!
The absolute 'must'!
Carpet is only used by the homeless
for a bed underlay in the pedestrian zone!
As young rebels,
we still have our golden ideals,
even if we don't own a penthouse apartment.
But if we find out later that we've not
become rebel icons, what's left?
The parquet-fetishist was
Archibald Philip Purpur,
called Archie, and professional trendsetter.
- So until next time, Archie.
The only friend of my
poor can opener Gustav.
Besides me, of course.
I know it's a difficult time for you, Francis.
But I've brought you your favourite music -
Mahler's 'Resurrection Symphony'.
Sleep well.
Who are you?
Where are you?
Come here, my little one.
Just come here and see what a
nice thing I have here for you.
Are you looking for your old peeing spot?
It's been pissed on itself.
Home decor is here.
Cold sack?
How the devil - yes. Cold sack!
Let me guess. It's a guy, right?
Like the other four bodies.
Sh*t, yeah! How the hell did you know that?
Well, it's just a guess.
This time, in any case, it was good old
Deep Purple who went to kingdom come.
His neck looks as if somebody
was testing out a new ice pick.
One question.
Was Deep Purple castrated?
Purple? Castrated? Man!
Purple was beyond such sultry activities.
He was about as old as Methuselah,
but he looked even older than that.
Is that all you have to say?
These departures are
slowly getting on my balls!
Where's Deep Purple's body now?
Can you lead me there?
Why not?
Hey! What do you call yourself, smartass?
Blaubart! And I've delighted more
chicks in my time than Henry the Eighth!
The longer I trotted behind this proud
invalid and had to look at all his misery,
the more insistently I asked myself of
what or whom he had become a victim.
- Dead end!
- Dead end!
Please! We had them.
Oh dear sh*t, Hermann and Hermann!
Don't tell me you want to rave to me again
about the advantages of your castration.
But I do believe you, boys.
Without the balls,
one carries a lot less weight.
Kong, why do you still put up
with these bang-b*tches?
Blaubart, old house cripple!
I can see your adventures in the gay scene
have brought you some success!
is indeed a fine specimen.
Is he teaching you how they do it?
He'd like to show you personally!
He has the ideal position for you!
I see that you're looking for trouble!
Okay, you can have it.
But I assume you're more
interested in my friend Francis.
In that case, you need to know that I will
not stand by to watch an unfair fight!
So, how do you want it, old bastard?
I'm shitting myself with fear, buddy.
And as for you, sweetie,
you can bet your life on it
that we'll be having an interesting
conversation in private
in the not-too-distant future
that you won't soon forget.
Hey, Blaubart.
- Yeah?
I'm afraid you're slowly
betraying your own principles.
You don't say.
And why, if I may ask?
Well, you told him I was your friend.
In my opinion, the last minutes
of his life ran as follows:
The murderer bit Purple several times
in the neck while he was outside.
That's demonstrated by the
traces of blood in the garden.
himself into the garage.
Remarkable for his age.
Didn't you say that Purple was
beyond such sultry activities?
You mean sex, right?
Yes! Even the old Purple was in
heat when the killer caught him!
The most striking feature of this
series of murders is the sexuality.
and has some unusual views
on the competitive behaviour in the area.
Or he has something against
reproduction in general.
In my day, it was called plugging!
And I still say that it was a
goddamn can opener! Sh*t, yeah!
We mustn't deceive ourselves.
The bloody hole is a bite wound.
Anyway, it's probably time I learned about
this unfortunate area and its inhabitants.
And you are going to help me, Blaubart.
Oh, will I, Mr. Inspector?
Well, tomorrow, I'll
introduce you to someone.
You're actually not the only smartass
in our foggy London for idiots.
The sound came directly
from the first floor.
It surprised me that Gustav hadn't
been woken by the noise long ago.
Hallelejah, Claudandus is at peace!
Damn irrepressible curiosity!
Follow God's work! Deliver us!
My God, where did I just land?
After only a slight punishment
because God had tested him
In the name of Brother Claudandus!
In the name of Brother Claudandus,
