The Devil's General Page #7

When Hitler and Gring invited you to join the Ministry.

I can still hear you in the bar...

Olivia was there: "There is no way!"

"These types want war. No way."

You refuse then you do it.

You shake your head then you accept.

Two weeks later, you were appointed

Inspector of fighter planes.

That was completely different.

Yes, it was the first step.

And now you gallop.

- Like everyone else!

- And you in front of everyone!

Because who does not want to get ahead?

And now you ask me what to do?

Do what you want.

What has happened to you?

Usually it is you who pours the drinks.

Karl...do you believe it was sabotage?

Excuse me. An urgent telegram.

Korrianke brought this.

Take care when opening. It's ticking.

What time are we going to Rheinsberg?

What is it, Karl?

Twelve new bombers were sent to the front...

...before any testing.

Despite protests from the supervisor.

- Who ordered that?

- Von Stetten.

This morning...after the meeting.

Behind our backs!

Why are you worried?

This time, the General Staff is responsible!

Us too! We must call Hermann ...

Now I have to eat lunch. Good afternoon!

- Then I will call ..

- Good afternoon, Lttjohann.

Good afternoon, General!

It is best to take a blanket.

Today is for woollens.

For tonight, I planned a surprise.

Something at Otto's.

A welcome back party.

Only we, the General and their ladies.

Nothing fancy. Only appetizers.

At six. And go to bed early.

What do you think?

Count me out.

A**hole!

Harras returned. He did not call?

Maybe he'll come to eat with us. What should I wear?

Aren't you excited? Why are not you happy?

I'm terribly glad. I'm all flustered.

I think when he walks through that door...

...I will simply throw my arms around him.

If you please.

Olly, this wasn't fair.

I couldn't get a word in edge-wise.

Well, come on, embrace already. Otherwise, he will.

Therese, when can we eat?

Mr. Harras is in a hurry.

Cooking takes time.

Higher. A little to the left.

What's this?

Just like I saw you that night.

But I can not see you.

No need to worry.

I'm very handsome.

Even better on the radio.

That must have been during

the time of silent films.

You gave a speech for young aviators.

And they were overjoyed.

What are you thinking?

I had a conversation with a young pilot.

I told him that everything works out...

...if it has a purpose.

I almost forgot that.

Lunch is ready.

Would you like to take off your coat?

Roisterer brought your ticket.

17:
30 at the Anhalter station.

- Sleeping-car to Vienna.

- Why did you take this?

I told Roisterer an hour ago

I wouldn't be going anywhere.

What will you do in Vienna?

Roisterer got her a fantastic contract

to appear at the Josefstadt theatre.

Starring role.

It's perfect for her.

There is no danger...

...none.

This "none" is me?

Miss Mohrungen again.

No, Harras is not here.

Ah, I thought he was with you.

I believe he's back.

That great.

So you won't need to call us again, right?

Of course.

May I will give him your compliments if I see him first?

Yes, please. Don't forget.

I have a good memory.

My compliments to your aunt...

and the Rosenfelds. Heil Hitler!

B*tch!

You know what she said?

To say hello to the Rosenfelds.

How does she know of the Rosenfelds?

The Rosenfelds are staying here.

Where else could they go?

Everyday thought we could get them away from here.

This is dangerous.

Nothing happened until now.

Only the young Mohrungen came

here and saw them.

Ma'am, lunch is ready.

Shall I serve?

Yes, Therese.

Go change clothes and call the Rosenfelds.

Since coming here, they hardly dare

leave the room. Fear.

Fear. There is fear everywhere.

If my plane is in order, I can fly them out today.

Harras...you must escape too.

Take Diddo with you and stay there.

Switzerland, Sweden or anywhere else.

You have friends everywhere.

Start a new life somewhere else.

An honest living.

Yes, I fear for you.

You keep thinking that you can play

around with those upstairs.

But it is they that they are playing with you!

And I also fear for Diddo.

She risks everything staying with you.

Olly! Do not worry, dear.

I always find a way out.

Don't kid yourself, Harry.

This isn't like before.

You know too much.

I'm afraid.

Go away.

Run away? For them? For me?

Not a chance.

At least send the girl to Vienna.

- The Rosenfelds are not in their room.

- Rosenfelds not there?

Therese said they wanted to walk a little.

They never leave home. Until when?

They did not say.

They can't be far.

The professor took no hat.

- Therese, what's on the menu?

- Turnips, General.

Aunt Olly is increasingly nervous.

- My aunt wants to send me to Vienna?

- Yup.

- And what you do want?

- I do not.

That's nice!

You still do not obey me?

Obey? I will do whatever you tell

me as long as you do not send me away.

- Going to snow. You'll catch cold.

- I feel warm.

- Still want to go to Rheinsberg?

- Yeah.

Well, I still have a little meeting...

...a sort of whispering but with fireworks.

But afterwards, we get in on my sports car...

...and head west.

That won't work. It will be dark before we get there.

We can also see Rheinsberg on the return trip...

...in the morning.

Here comes Korrianke.

Hey, Willi, at Hagenplatz.

There are two people sitting at the

bus stop with the Star of David.

Isn't that forbidden?

No, it's not permitted plus they're dead.

What are you looking at? Go away, go away.

- What time is your train?

- 17:
30.

Go to Vienna. Maybe I can go with you.

Might go after you. Go to Vienna.

- Why is this not locked?

- They're doing cleaning.

Hopefully the idiot is punctual.

- Want to make coffee?

- For Lausitz...

...and whoever else?

No, no. But stay here just in case.

- Good afternoon, General.

- Good afternoon, Auguste.

- What are you doing here?

- Don't you see?

Until next time, General.

I vowed that I would visit your notorious lair, Harry.

Want an Armagnac?

Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye, Miss Mohrungen.

Finish your drink. Let yourself out.

What now? What is this?

I promised myself that today would

have a serious talk with you, Harry.

Miss Mohrungen, I do not want to be rude.

Maybe I do.

Why do you want to ruin your life, Harry?

Why is that any concern of yours?

There are not many men in the world...

Real men.

You are one of them.

I do not know you well enough

to know if that's a compliment.

It is. Rise to the top

and join the ranks.

You can make something of yourself.

You are neither Jew nor communist.

You could one day be the greatest.

The first after the Fhrer. You can eliminate all opposition.

Join us.

Do you have a fever?

Temperament, Harry! That is what you lack.

You need a woman who pushes you to get ahead.

I'll find someone myself.

So now, Miss Mohrungen,

having seen my propellor bar...

...and my bedroom.

Please go back to your home.

Greetings to your poor father and tell him...

...that he should give you a
