Traumulus Page #6

---

One doesn't allow a lady to be

insulted. So say something!

I met you last night.

We were in the most proper company.

You accompanied me home, and

there you bade me goodnight.

Right? That's how it was.

That's how it was!

Yes, that's how it was.

I knew you were a good guy.

Believe me, I'm sincerely

sorry that you...

Ms. Link, the matter is now settled.

Don't worry, nothing will happen to him.

Naturally, I can't allow his guilt to

go without atonement.

Can't you really just temper

justice with mercy?

No. -But Headmaster, even if I ask you

very, very nicely? -No, not even then.

But we really behaved like pure kids.

OK, I will waive Mr. von

Kannewurf's punishment.

It's good enough for me

that I despise him.

My dear Headmaster, Mr. von Zedtlitz.

I regret to have caused you such an

upsetting altercation.

Now, my dear Zedtlitz, what's

bothering you.

I shouldn't have come again.

I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

I'm a bad person.

I wanted...

Yes?

To ask you for forgiveness again.

But dear Kurt, now I almost

feel like a sinner.

Was I too tough on you?

Did I hurt you before? -No. No, in fact

I'd like to ask for a strict punishment.

You're making it difficult for me

to give you any punishment at all.

I don't deserve your benevolence.

Zedtlitz.

What is the postillon drinking? Water!

What is the postillon drinking?

We demand Cantus Ex!

One Zwolle for the singers.

Cheers!

Catilina, are the weapons in order?

-Noble Spartacus, they are.

Brothers, it's a joyful day

for our blood alliance, Anti-Tyrannia.

Away from the hated pressure of our

spectacles-wielding headmaster,

today we celebrate, in sunny freedom,

our sublime foundation anniversary.

Sadly, one of our compatriots

is missing.

Brutus. Our grand Brutus has

been confined to his room!

The malicious Traumulus

has constrained him.

Because Brutus walked where?

On the rose-lined paths of freedom?

Ha, you brothers!

-Ha!

Revenge!

-Revenge!

We'll cheat on the next surprise test.

Like never before! -That in any case.

Shut your mouth, you crass Fox,

and put it in the mug!

Down with Traumulus!

-Down.

Hannibal ante portas!

-Traumulus kommt!

Lights out! -Where is the

alley? Get out, fast!

To The Golden Peacock

Good evening.

-Good evening.

Good evening.

Oh, Professor! Headmaster, if I'm

not mistaken.

Yes. Please show me the green lounge.

-Green lounge. After you, Professor.

But it's early. There's nothing going

on, Professor. So, here you are.

This is the green lounge.

Shall I reserve a table for

Professor for tonight?

You can be totally unashamed here.

We can draw the curtains, and, um...

But, Professor, what's the matter?

But...

It's nothing! Come back!

-He went over to the Golden Peacock!

To your places, you cowards!

-To your places.

Silence! Turn on the light!

And nevertheless I tell you, the

nation is in peril!

Even if the blind old man is searching

for the bottle of champagne

emptied yesterday by our grand

Brutus and his nymph, Lydia.

This is simply incredible! -The

headmaster should be ashamed of himself!

Oh, what do you mean "ashamed"?!

I don't think it's such a big deal,

if a young man and a young woman...

But listen... a student.

-Pfft, student! He's graduating soon.

Then he can anyway.

You know, this assessor is an

ornament for the whole city.

One sees him walking

around with all kinds of women.

Not decidedly dignified for an official.

At any rate, it's highly embarrassing

for the esteemed headmaster. -I agree.

Shhh, not so loud! The

son is sitting over there.

Ha, I will say no more.

Which one? Which one?

The one there with all the keys?

Can it be? Why does that

old ape keep staring at me?

He bears no resemblance to his father.

-I agree... I have no idea.

That's the last straw. Now the old twit

put on his monocle and is staring at me.

That's the last straw!

-Stop it! -It's absurd!

Just a moment.

Pardon me. Let's step outside

for a second. Follow me.

Can you explain what's going on, please?

-You were staring at me the whole time!

You think I'd choose your stupid face if

I wanted to stare at someone?

That is grand. That is

just unparalleled!

Please imagine yourself

morally slapped in the face by me.

I'm honoured. May I ask

you for your card?

You can expect to hear from my man.

-Oops. -Pardon.

Kids, Traumulus, he just nodded to me.

But he didn't notice anything.

We got quite a scare. -If you only

knew! -That would be a nice mess!

Traumulus is a good guy.

-Long live Traumulus!

Listen, let's celebrate him!

Spartacus, what do you think?

Such a small salamander, eh?

Salamander!

Silence! We'll prepare the salamander.

-Bravo! -Hats off!

From Exerzitium Salamandres

on Traumulus!

One, two, three, what did you say?

-What did you say? Oh, yes.

One, two, three, Salamander Ex!

Freshmen clap last.

-Pfft!

Always these freshmen! Well, kids,

that tasted good, didn't it? -Yes!

Well, what will it be, Master? The

dough is long since finished.

Oh, yes, I totally forgot. Excuse me,

boys, I have to tend to my oven.

We'll help!

-OK, OK, come on.

Then we'll still have to wait

on the lawn, eh?

Then you can help me with the wood.

You can throw it better.

OK, open the door.

So, fatso, in with the tyrant!

-In with you!

This here, this is Big Julius. Caesar!

-In with you!

And now, Ivan. Ivan the Terrible!

-In with you!

Bible!

-Oh, bible?

You're going to get a spanking.

Here, this is the county commissioner

of Kannewurf.

I've had it in for that fat boy

for a long time.

Are you ready? In with you!

-In with you!

Down with the dogs of opposition!

Blood must flow, thick and fast!

Long live, long live the German Republic!

Oh, this kiss for the whole world.

This old student alliance is

really unbelievable.

23 men, and 12 of them

Niemeyer's pupils.

Yes, Commissioner. -Almost the whole

school. He sure can be proud of that.

So, my dear Hoppe, you quash the nest

right away, various boys will be seized,

and transported here to

the police station.

Zedtlitz is here!

-Zedtlitz!

Zedtlitz!

Cheers, Brutus! Since you escaped

jail, we greet you! Hail Brutus!

Hail!

Listen to me for a minute. I stand here

with the request to dissolve our

alliance right away.

-Why?!

No, it's not nonsense! It's the only

reason I came here from my confinement.

But it's sheer madness.

-Hear me out!

Excuse me, Commissioner, but

why the arrests today,

on the eve of His Majesty's arrival?

No, no, especially today.

Don't lose any sleep over that.

Restriction orders might seem severe,

the boys' fathers will throw a fit,

but bend without breaking.

As soon as the transfer starts, come and

get me. -At your command, Commissioner.

Yes, but Hermann, the main outrage, the

thing with Zedtlitz and the actress:

the civil servant actually saw him

going into the house with her.

Commissioner, you can rely

completely on the report.

For God's sake, we don't want to claim
