[ Man Speaking German Over Loudspeaker ]

[ Train Whistle Blows ]

- Are you going too ?

- Oh.

- What are you doing here ?

- l wanted to see you off.

See me off ?

From here ?

Oh, l watched you onto the train, uh--

No harm in that, is there ?

How did you know

l'd be here ?

l heard something about it

at police headquarters.

Have you been seeing

Major Calloway again ?

Of course not.

l don't live in his pocket.

Harry, what is it ?

- For heaven sakes,

stop calling me Harry.

- l'm sorry.

- [ Man On Loudspeaker, lndistinct ]

- Let's go.

What's on your mind ?

Why did you hide here ?

Hide ? Can't a fellow have a drink ?

Here. lt'll be cold on that train.

- l shall be all right.

- You send me a wire as soon as you are.

- What's going to happen ?

Where is Harry ?

- He's safe in the Russian zone.

- How do you know ?

- Well, l saw him today.

- How is he ?

- He can look after himself.

Don't worry.

- Did he say anything about me ?

Tell me !

- Oh, the usual things.

- ls something wrong ?

Did you tell Calloway about Harry ?

- Of course l didn't.

Why should he help me ?

The Russians will make trouble for him.

- That's his headache. Oh, Anna !

- His ? Why are you lying ?

- We're getting you

out of here, aren't we ?

- l'm not going.

You'd--

Anna, don't you recognize

a good turn when you see one ?

You have seen Calloway ?

What are you two doing ?

Well, they, they asked me

to help take him.

l'm helping.

- Poor Harry.

- Poor Harry.

Poor Harry... wouldn't even

lift a finger to help you.

Oh, you've got your precious honesty

and don't want anything else.

You still want him.

l don't want him anymore.

l don't want to see him, hear him, but

he's still a part of me. That's a fact.

l couldn't do a thing

to harm him.

[ Train Whistle Blowing ]

[ Train Departing ]

Oh, Anna, why do we always

have to quarrel ?

lf you want to sell your services,

l'm not willing to be the price.

l loved him.

You loved him.

What good have we done him...

for love ?

Look at yourself.

They have a name

for faces like that.

- Calloway.

- Come in here. There isn't much time.

l want to get a plane

out of here tonight.

- So she talked you out of it.

- Gave me these.

A girl of spirit.

She's right.

lt is none of my business.

lt won't make any difference

in the long run. l'll get him.

- Well, l won't have helped.

- That'll be a fine boast to make.

- Well, l always wanted you

to catch that plane, didn't l ?

- You all did.

l'd better see if there's

anyone still at the terminus.

You may need a priority.

Mind if l drop off

somewhere on the way ?

- l've got an appointment.

lt won't take five minutes.

- Of course.

Why don't you come in too ?

You're a writer. lt might interest you.

This is the biggest children's

hospital in Vienna.

All the kids in here are the result

of Lime's penicillin racket.

He'd had meningitis.

They gave it some of Lime's penicillin.

Terrible pity, isn't it ?

Paine lent me one of your books.

Oklahoma Kid, l think it was.

l read a bit of it. Looks as if

it's gonna be pretty good.

What made you take up this sort

of thing ? Been doing it for long ?

- All right, Calloway. You win.

- l never knew there were

snake charmers in Texas.

- l said you win.

- Win what ?

l'll be your...

dumb decoy duck.

Psst !

Paine.

Look, sir !

How much longer

are you going to sit here ?

Shall l go over there, sir ?

No. No,

leave them for a while.

[ Old Man ]

Mein Herr, Ballon ?

Nein, danke. Nein.

- Ballon ?

- [ Speaking German ]

[ German Continues ]

Go on. Hop it, scarper.

- Ballon, mein Herr ?

- [ German Continues ]

All right, all right.

Only one. Go on, scarper.

You should have gone.

How did you know l was here, anyway ?

From Kurtz.

They have just been arrested.

But Harry won't come.

He's not a fool.

- Yes, Paine. Slip over there.

See what she's up to.

- Right, sir.

[ Anna ]

Don't tell me you are doing

all this for nothing.

- What's your price this time ?

- No price, Anna.

Honest, sensible, sober,

harmless Holly Martins.

Holly.

What a silly name.

You must feel very proud

to be a police informer.

Harry, get away !

The police are outside !

- Quick !

- Anna.

Mr. Martins, sir,

Keep back, sir !

Come back ! Come back, sir !

Martins ! Martins !

Be careful, Martins.

Don't take any chances.

lf you see him, shoot !

What time is it ?

- [ Engine Starts ]

- 2:
30.

l'll have to step on it

if you're going to catch that plane.

Calloway, can't you

do something about Anna ?

l'll do what l can,

if she'll let me.

- Wait a minute. Let me out.

- Well, there's not much time.

One can't just leave.

Please.

Be sensible, Martins.

l haven't got a sensible name,

Calloway.
