The 12th Man Page #2

---

My God!

What have they done to you?

I didn't say anything.

I didn't say anything!

No, I believe you.

I believe you.

They haven't found him.

The man who was with you.

They haven't found him.

He's still alive.

He's alive.

I have a wife.

And a daughter.

Give them my best.

I need to go.

How can I help save our country

if I'm in hiding?

Are you going to Troms?

No.

It's too late.

I'm going to Sweden.

Why?

Because Sweden is what we call

a neutral country.

I'll be safe there.

That's good.

Since you're so good with maps,

maybe you can show me

where Sweden is?

We are there.

And there... is Sweden.

That's a long way.

All the prisoners out!

Faster!

You disappoint me.

None of them talked.

One was promising,

but he died on me.

Well, well.

What can you do?

Maybe they didn't talk

because there's nothing to say.

Because your man is dead.

I was contacted

by the Reich Main Security Office.

They are waiting for a report.

No.

Not until I am sure.

Fine.

Keep moving!

Know what I think?

I think you are chasing a ghost.

There is no trace of him.

We have searched

every farm and house.

We have spoken with every person

who could have known anything.

God bless our dear fatherland

And let it like a garden bloom

Call down your peace

from mountains...

Delays are not appreciated

in Berlin.

Want to go to the Eastern Front?

Himmler will read that report.

And what Himmler reads,

Hitler reads.

You don't want to lie to Hitler,

do you?

As faithful...

I've been told I can trust you.

We've been expecting you.

Jan Baalsrud.

We're almost there.

- Good.

- Here. Size 42.

How did you know?

A tiny fellow like you?

They were the smallest I could find.

Thank you.

Peder.

Peder.

Here, take this backpack.

Some food and extra clothes

for your trip.

You need to hide your uniform

when you get to Lyngseidet.

- And here are my skis.

- I can't take your skis.

I can't keep them.

I'd never forgive myself.

Okay.

Let's go over the plan again.

- I'm going to Sweden.

- Right.

Then to England.

Then change socks.

And come right back here.

Okay.

Look at this.

Here is Lyngseidet.

It's an important hub.

Full of Germans.

But you can't get around it.

The mountains are too steep

on both sides.

They're mostly searching

along the coast.

They won't expect to see you

in Lyngseidet.

Look.

That is Kurt Stage.

He heads the Gestapo up here.

We think he knows you're alive.

They say no one

has escaped him before.

So for him, this is personal.

He'll never let a saboteur

like you get away.

If you make it over to Sweden,

it will be a crushing defeat for him.

Type this up and send it

to Berlin immediately.

Yes, sir.

- Heil Hitler!

- Heil Hitler.

Excellent.

- Thank you.

- Sure.

This is as close as we can get.

I can wade ashore.

You'd never get dry again.

You'd die.

Give me those skis.

Now you.

No.

Come on.

Wait. There.

Now you look like

a real Northerner.

There's a boat waiting

on the other side.

Just leave it adrift.

So no one knows

where you go ashore.

Once you cross the mountain

you'll reach the border.

If the weather holds up,

it should take two or three days.

At least you have skis now.

So you stand a chance.

Good luck.

To the commander in chief

of the SS and police in Norway.

Provisional report

on the sabotage cutter Brattholm.

On March 29, 1943,

units from the Navy and Abwehr

detained a fishing boat

with Norwegian saboteurs

who had been trained

in Great Britain.

There were twelve saboteurs

on board.

Ten were arrested and interrogated.

And according to the Fhrer's orders

of October 18,

they were promptly executed.

One saboteur was killed on site.

The final man was last observed

swimming in a Norwegian fjord.

I have personally

made it a priority

to thoroughly investigate

and establish with certainty...

that he could not have survived

in these Arctic waters.

Hey!

Hey, you!

I thought Norwegians

knew how to ski.

Thank you.

I followed his tracks

straight into the avalanche.

I lost him... here.

Are you sure?

Wenders here thinks he's a ghost.

If he survived, there are three ways

down from the mountain.

Here, here and here.

I am quite sure it was him.

And that he may be alive.

Don't just stand here.

Get out!

- Did you send that report?

- Of course. Immediately, sir.

Excellent.

I just wanted to be sure.

Broken skis.

What is that?

A backpack.

Hey!

Hello?

Can you hear me?

Baalsrud?

Race you to those rocks?

I'm not up for that... right now.

- Please leave.

- Feeling sorry for yourself?

Come on!

Be quiet.

I am quiet.

You're the one talking.

Come on.

Ready... set ... go!

Marius Grnvoll?

Marius Grnvoll?

Seen anything suspicious lately?

No.

No suspicious people?

- Good.

- I was wondering...

I was wondering...

How do you become

a Nazi sympathizer?

They don't admit just anyone.

No, that's true.

You must have

real faith in your cause?

Yes.

That patch

on your arm.

Are you proud of it?

How you get one of those,

do you just put your name on a list,

or do you actually

have to accomplish something?

We have checked everywhere.

The man we are looking for

is around 1.75 meters.

Dark hair.

Most likely wearing

a Norwegian uniform.

And he walks with a limp.

Okay.

To help, hide,

or in any way assist

an enemy of the Third Reich

is punishable by death.

- Is that understood?

- Yes.

Right. Good.

We're done here.

Let's go.

We need to keep looking.

On to the next farm.

Yes, one more bite.

Ottar, get out!

If anyone comes,

anyone at all, let us know.

Come. Here.

- We have to get these off.

- We have to get his circulation going.

Do you know who this is?

Yes.

Get all our bandages,

woolen underwear, and blankets.

Hanna!

Hey... you'll be fine.

Everything will be okay.

You're safe here.

I followed his tracks all the way up

to the avalanche.

- The avalanche?

-The one from three days ago?

Yes.

There are posters everywhere.

We can be shot on sight.

We know that.

They'll burn our house

to the ground.

Like in Telavg.

They torched everything.

His feet.

You saw them.

He needs a doctor.

- And Ottar...

- We can't call a doctor now.

It's too dangerous.

Why risk our lives

for a man dying of gangrene?

- He could die at any moment.

- We won't let him.

We'll help him.

Use mother's ointments.

Do everything we can.

What if it was me?

If that was me in there?

Hanna.

This is how we prove who we are

and what we believe in.

- Where are you going?

- Outside.

Ottar has kept guard for six hours.

I'll relieve him.

He won't be walking anytime soon.

We found something.

Come here.

Obersturmbannfhrer?

Sorry to interrupt,

but you need to see this.

We found it in the avalanche.

Above Grnvoll farm.

Give me that.

We found this hat

in the same area.

Easy, easy. Careful. Here.

Take this.

There.

Lie back down.

I told you I'd be here

when you woke up.

I've changed your clothes.

And bathed you.
