Leo.

It's true.

Did anything exciting happen today?

Started crying, locked herself

in the bathroom and wouldn't come out.

So I removed the lock.

You could do some peeping if you like.

Leo.

Oh God, I feel it already.

Hey!

- You're early.

- It was boring at home.

Happy birthday.

Thank you.

- Oops.

- I told you.

- You old fart face!

- My pleasure, Steiger.

- What are we watching?

- TV.

So that's what it's called.

Can I watch it with you?

It's a free country.

The man arrested for shooting

a hotel employee, Thomas Backer,

and his security chief were surprisingly

released from custody

in Berlin today.

Due to a lack of evidence

the District Attorney

saw no need

to keep the two men in custody.

What new evidence, Karl?

Why don't I know about it?

They conjured up two new witnesses,

two female escorts

that Backer

didn't want to mention at first.

- Two female escorts?

- Yes.

Anything else?

No.

It's gonna be lots of fun at home.

By the way, there's

a little surprise for you in the fridge.

Cover your gun.

Look.

- What's that?

- What does it look like?

- Leo made it for you.

- Leo can bake a cake?

Nina helped him.

- We had a good talk.

- What did she say?

She mostly talked about Tony.

For the first time

she was falling in love. She said

her mother promised to go to rehab.

But she never did.

That's why she's alone.

The director of the orpanage beat

her and punished her when she resisted.

She has a real cross to bear.

Hi, honey.

Where are you'? - On the way to the car.

I'll be there soon.

Okay, great.

Did you see the doctor?

Yes.

Well?

- Don't keep me waiting.

- I'll tell you when you're here.

No, tell me now.

- I love you.

- I love you, too.

Tell me. Are we having a baby?

Yes or no?

Yes or no?

Yes.

Yes?

Yes.

Um.

Boy or girl?

- You can't tell yet.

- Doesn't matter anyway.

Just as long as it's a boy.

Leo? Is everything okay?

Leo!

Leo?

Hello. I just talked to my husband.

I yes.

- Thank you.

- What for?

- For the cake.

- It was Leo's idea.

It's time again, Nina.

- I'll do it later.

- No, now. And then off to bed.

- Nina?

- Later.

If you don't go to bed,

I can't go either, and I'm tired.

I don't want to go to bed.

I can't fall asleep anyway.

Max!

I'm bleeding.

Oh no.

Don't look at her, Nina. Don't look.

I'll get you out of here.

Stay behind me, and hold onto my belt.

We'll go together,

step by step, left, right.

Left, right, okay?

Okay?

Yes.

From now on, stay on my right.

Between me and the building, okay?

- Yes'?

- Henry, Max here.

We have been compromised.

The safehouse has been attacked.

- Helena is dead.

- No. And the girl?

- With me.

- Take her to Location 2.

Henry, didn't you hear what I said?

- The house was attacked. We have a rat.

- Get her to Location 2.

We'll take it from there. - I won't take

her anywhere your department sends us.

The subway station Deutsche Oper

in an hour? - I'll be there.

Okay.

One more thing. Nina needs insulin.

Why was that man released?

He killed Tony.

- How can that happen?

- He knows the right people.

- Come on.

- I'm not going anywhere. I can't.

- You've done a great job up until now.

- I can make fun of myself.

I'm not making fun of you.

What great job did I do?

I held onto your f***ing belt?

I was there and

saw people dying all around me.

You're supposed to be safe

in a safehouse, right? - I guess so.

If they can find me there,

they'll find me everywhere right?

- Not if you get up and come with me.

- They'll find me

and kill me.

- Nobody is going to kill you.

- They tried.

- But they didn't succeed.

- Helena is dead.

It won't bring her back if you give up.

Then she'd have died for nothing.

- What if they kill you?

- That won't happen.

- Are you bulletproof?

- No, but I was a Boy Scout.

Very funny.

Nina, I promise I'll look after you.

You're safe with me.

If anyone tries to get close to you,

I'll kill 'em.

Sorry.

A bit more.

Now all we need is a car.

Did you see that'?

I didn't even say abracadabra.

I need your car.

- Open the door!

- I'm warning you! I have a black belt!

Your phone?

- Please, I have a family.

- I still need your car.

Get out. That way!

How old are you now?

What do you think?

- I look 50?

- Yes.

At least 48.

Before I met you I looked 26.

Go on dreaming!

- I'm sorry, Max.

- Got the insulin?

One?

It's all they had. - I'll give her

the injection - I can do it myself.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah.

Who knew our location?

How many people?

- My team and the DA.

- The DA?

She's their witness.

I'll find the problem and fix it.

No way. You have no idea

who Backer bought.

Forget police protection.

Let me do it. - No way!

- I choose my team and we go off radar.

- That isn't how we do things.

- Henri, we have a rat.

- Exactly, there's been a breach.

And you're part of it.

Two officers are dead, and you're alive.

- It has to be investigated.

- Two officers are dead?

- Helena and Leo.

- Leo? - Sorry, Max.

Did you know

he was going to be a father?

Go home and get some rest.

Tomorrow will be a tough day for you.

You know the procedure. I'm not allowed

to keep you on the job.

You're no longer in charge of the girl.

We'll make a clean start

with a fresh new team.

- Henri, do you know what you're saying?

- Trust me.

The only person I now trust is me.

- Meaning what?

- Meaning:
I'm not going home.

Do what I say. I'm taking her

to the police station. - No, you aren't.

- Please.

- I won't leave her alone.

Come along if you like,

but you're off the job tomorrow.

- Come on, Nina, let's go.

- Nina!

Stand behind me.

Please, for your own safety.

- We're going. Thanks for the insulin.

- I can't let you do this, Max.

Stop me.

Don't be a fool! You'll go to prison,

and there's nothing I can do!

Handcuffs.

Henri, you shouldn't drink on the job.

Stop, Max! This is insane!

Max, you'll be wanted

for kidnapping a key witness!

I'm just the chief of police.

- Yes?

- Boss.

- We found the stolen car.

- Outside "Deutsche Oper".

- Exactly.

- Send the guys down and tell them

- to bring a bolt cutter.

- Digger, bolt cutter! Make it snappy!

What's up, Tarzan?

Too many anabolic steroids?

Get your ass in gear!

You're collecting dust! Move it!

And spit that thing out! Retard!

Seven people were killed

in a dreadful bloodbath in Berlin,

including two police officers,

Helena K. and Leo S.,

Residents described a fierce gunfight

and a tremendous explosion.

Our reporters spoke of

war-like destruction.

- Where is she?

- I don't know.

- What?

- I don't know where she is.

I know she's alive.

I know who's with her.

- But I have no f***ing idea where she is.

- I thought you met with them.

- He took the girl and left.

- And you let him go?

Should I have shot him?

I tried, but he grabbed my gun.

- Kung Fu's not my thing.

- Who is the man?

Ex-special-forces guy, KSK. Lots

of medals. Thinks he's John Rambo now.
