at the university any longer...
some of my former students come here
- Good night, monkey.
- Professor, I must speak with you.
You have to excuse me.
And a old fellow like me can't
keep up with you younger men.
Good night, Mr. Vanek,
I hope you rest well.
Good night, monkey.
Good night, father.
You don't need to tell him anything,
he knows.
You told him?
I tried to tell him,
but he wouldn't let me.
Father is an old revolutionary.
He was in exiled with the
founders of the Republic.
British broadcasting...
The Czech government in exile here
informs that the daring execution...
of the hangman Heydrich is expected to
be followed by a nationwide bloodbath...
as savage as only the
Nazi barbarians can be.
This woman who lead our men
the wrong way...
must have brought vegetables at
Maybe, but I don't know her name.
Pick it up, again.
There, put it back in place.
Good.
You say you never learned
where the girl lives?
- No.
- Here is the coffee, Herr Ritter.
Thank you very much.
Real coffee.
Now, Mrs. Dvorak,
let's start from the beginning.
Now, don't be nervous, Mrs. Dvorak.
I am prepared to devote to you
all of tonight...
even longer, if necessary.
Well?
That's the girl.
I want you to listen to me very closely,
Mrs. Dvorak.
Yes.
And exactly, where are you?
Gestapo.
And you actually believe you will walk
out of here without telling us the truth?
Now.
This girl...
who sent our men the wrong way...
she must have brought vegetables at
It is now 8 a.m.
Last night the Fuhrer's own physician...
performed an extremely delicate
operation on the spinal cord...
on his excellency the Reich Protector...
removing 3 pistol bullets.
- Anything?
- No. Nothing yet.
Here.
Several people have been arrested.
It is reliably reported that the
Gestapo have a definite clue...
- that will lead directly to the assassin.
- The taxi driver.
- No, no.
- But, who else?
I don't know.
I must leave at once.
An important announcement from
the Occupational Authorities.
Taking personal charge...
the chief of the Gestapo from Prague...
Kurt Haas, has ordered
instant retaliation...
for the insufficient cooperation
of the civilian population.
Most severe methods are to be expected.
They know nothing.
If they did, they would not threaten.
Miss Novotny.
Open up!
Come with me. You, stay here.
Who are you?
What's your name?
- Karel Vanek.
- You live in this house?
Who are you?
I am Professor Novotny.
Whom are you looking for?
- For you?
- No!
Quiet, no interference!
On what grounds?
For the loathsome abominable
crime committed against..
the person of the
Reich Protector. And the refusal...
of Czechs who resist
to cooperate with us.
Who shall be held hostage
until the killer...
is delivered to the authority.
And what if he is not surrendered?
This response is from the
Occupation Authority.
If I understand you correctly, and for the
benefit of my family and students...
the loathsome abominable crime...
against his excellency,
the Reich Protector...
or more correctly, the unheard of...
traitorous behavior of my countrymen...
in failing wholeheartedly to fall in
line with their "German" protectors...
compels you to hold me hostage...
together with others in whom, I presume,
until the assassin is surrendered..
Our lives becoming forfeit for his?
- I believe that is correct?
- Correct
- Father, no. They can't...
- Oh yes, they can.
They can arrest me,
they can arrest a hundred more.
Indeed, they can arrest as many hundreds
as they have on their lists.
But I don't believe they will find
- Or in all of the Czech nation.
- Who are you and all these others?
Some of my former students.
I give them private tutoring.
Or is that forbidden too?
Keep your mouth shut, or you'll get some
real tutoring. Make yourself ready.
How can you take my husband for
something he knows nothing about?
No interruptions!
- Ludmilla.
- Yes?
Will you get some of my things ready?
Just a few for tonight.
Yes.
No razors are permitted.
I trust you will all continue
with your studies?
Don't let yourself be snowed
under at Valley Forge.
Father!
Good luck.
- Thank you.
- Now please go.
All of you.
- Stepan, I'm frighten.
- I know, I know
Monkey.
Thank you, sister.
Goodbye, son.
Remember all this, well.
I will.
I'm ready.
Vystyd, Priest
Votruba, General.
Pravotka, Jew.
Necval, Writer.
Schyler, Clerk.
Matouseck, Worker.
Attention!
Who is the oldest?
All men over 50 raise your arms.
You, your name.
Professor Stepan Novotny.
Stand at attention when you address me!
Novotny, you're in charge
of this barracks.
Will be completely responsible for
compliance with camp regulations.
Base cleanliness must be maintained.
No spit or dirt on the floor.
All shoe laces, suspenders,
neck ties, and belts...
must be turned into to the
commandant's office within one hour.
Understood?
Don't shake your head, speak!
Father should have dressed more warmly.
Because it is damp and cold out there.
The assassin must give himself up,
or he's a monster.
If I knew who he was,
I'd go out and tell the police.
- Aunt Millie, it's not as simple as that.
- Why not?
- Whoever help him...
can't go to the Gestapo
after last nights broadcast
It would be like signing his own death
warrant. Him and his whole family.
Any one who knows...
and helps him,
is as guilty as the assassin.
Mascha!
Jan, look after Mascha.
Mascha, is there something I can do?
There is only one hope...
Yes, I'm afraid so.
Oh darling, I'm sorry, but...
I have to get back to the lab.
Yes.
Funny, when I left you last night...
I met a chap coming up the stairs
with some red roses.
Oh yes, the florist sent
them to my mother.
She is one of his old customers.
I'll see who it is.
- Beda!
- They called off the school for the whole week.
They said on account of Heydrich...
But I heard they are using the rooms for
the wounded from Russian battles.
- How about father?
- Nothing yet.
Mascha, if you hear anything be sure
to let me know.
- I will, Jan, and goodbye darling.
- Good bye.
- Good bye, Jan.
- Good bye, Beda.
- Beda, your bandage is all filthy.
- It isn't filthy, it's just a little tangled.
- I'll fix it.
- No, I better do it. Come with me.
You ought to take lessons from Mr. Vanek.
He's an expert at bandaging.
You're next, Mr. Dedic.
Good afternoon, doctor.
Good afternoon.
His case history, doctor.
How's everything going?
Yesterday I was afraid of complications,
but today it's been pretty good.
- Here are the bandages, doctor.
- Thank you. That's all.
I took two sedatives.
Look at that
Naturally anyone who has been
through your last 24 hrs
Yesterday, when Vanya was arrested,
