show up and create a turmoil.

Wacek and turmoil...

In case of trouble

we'll come to your aid.

You'll send me parcels to the pen?

Thanks...

There's a great stir amongst the birds.

These fly away, these stay...

A mute swan. Cygnus olor.

Herbivorous bird.

Bread is not the best

nourishment for it.

It has a negative effect

on its digestive system.

Destroys the stomach and the liver.

And what state is your liver in, Wacek?

Ehhh...

I deducted for the papers, the ones

you took. For the meat. Carry on.

Grand Hotel. Apartment 207.

They start gathering at 6 pm.

There'll be twelve of them.

The last supper.

And did you know

that Hitler also stayed in this hotel?

You're bullshitting me...

September 1939.

He wanted to have

a view of the capitulation of Hel.

But he didn't see it

as our guys were defending

themselves since the second of October.

Wacek...

Where do you know all that from?

My grandfather was in the Wehrmacht.

No caviar?

But there are mushrooms.

French?

French are the best.

Delicious.

Should we play harder?

Done.

Ice would be good.

The Scots drink without ice.

Has a better kick

when it's warm.

They start gathering at 6pm,

but we move on my mark.

Maybe let Marian count the papers.

Maybe he should.

I'm going to take a piss.

You think little sh*t

you're such a smartass?

Money changer...

little thief...

Sh*t!

We're out of paper.

We're out of paper.

Cookies perhaps?

Italian.

If so... I'll try.

Italian cookies are the best.

Free Lech, lock up Wojciech,

free Lech, lock up Wojciech...

Comrade Colonel,

they want to bang Walesa out.

We'll bang their kidneys.

We're moving in...

Black inside, red outside.

Black inside, red outside, yes?

Red inside, black outside. One more time?

There. Red inside, black outside.

Please.

Black inside, red outside.

Ready?

Of course.

Berlin, 4th April 1945, time 14: 12

That day Standartenfhrer Szpiglic was

unexpectedly called in

by the Obergrupennfurera Kaltenbruner

to the headquarters of the RSHA.

The state security police.

He didn't know whether

Kaltenbruner knew the same thing,

that Mller the head of the Gestapo had

found out from a radiotelegraphist earlier...

Would you like to exchange some money?

- No, thanks.

- We already have some.

In that case I apologise.

So Standartenfhrer Szpiglic

could only count on himself.

Walking into the lion's den, he knew

there was only one thing he could do.

He'd have to play a very risky game.

Militia!

Militia, halt, don't move!

Come with us,

they're not beating today!

Shut your mouth!

IDs, now!

Major Krlikowski, security service.

Ensign Lachoni, black brigade.

Security?

From Warsaw?

Bravo!

You won't wiggle

your way out this time.

Evervthing has been recorded.

Where's the rest

Comrade Colonel?

And what have you got in...

on your mind?

The third one,

the one that was with them

and that German who wanted

to change some money.

Security agent caught whilst

leaving counts as double.

F***.

Halt!

Step right up!

Yes?

Drop the bag, hands up high!

What have you got there?

We're from

the Department of Sanitation.

Here we have e coli and dysentery bacilli

and other germs from across the entire bay.

We'll see.

No, no, I don't know...

Rash, blisters, burns, abscess.

I know that this is very dangerous but

the officer is on duty and he must insist.

Go ahead, open it up sir.

To all crews. End of action.

Retreat. Immediately.

Disperse.

Did you see?

He freaked out.

So what's in the bag?

- Money.

- Operational.

We're going to the police station.

Move it. Quickly.

Wait...

Where's the money bag?

Would you gentlemen like a lift?

You fell from the sky, man.

Thanks...

Maybe we could meet tomorrow,

we'll have a drink, talk...

Alright.

And where can one do that discreetly...

Marago?

At 8pm. Bye.

Don't pull.

What is it?

The secret police is, you understand,

a sore on the healthy organism

of our department.

Today I squeezed it.

That's right Comrade Colonel.

Gentlemen...

It's a bit stuffy.

Sonny however... is a good man.

But luck he doesn't have.

Well hey.

Don't waste it.

Obviously.

- Bye.

- Bye.

The mountains go into labour,

and bring forth a little mouse.

You didn't suspect it?

No.

I should have, because it's Markiz

who invented that scam with the boot.

- What are you laughing at?

- You know what.

But I don't get it!

Sometimes it's worth

doing something for others.

Because it can

come back to you someday.

After all it's only money.

Go buy yourself something.
