Walking with the Enemy Page #6

Colonel Eichmann himself

recognizes their authority.

Search every person on this truck.

Remove anyone who does not

have an authentic Swiss pass.

We did that, sir.

And I would prefer if we did

not waste any more of...

Is this a Swiss pass?

- No, sir.

- What is it?

Newsprint, sir.

Newsprint.

Well, now, you know the difference.

Check them again.

All of them!

Remove anyone with any newsprint.

Get off the truck, now!

Get them down off the truck!

Get over here.

Give me your pass, huh?

Move!

Come!

Get off the truck!

Get down!

Put your passes in the air!

Hold your passes!

Let me see.

What is that, huh?

What is that?

Get over there.

Let me see, huh?

What is it? Move!

Hold it up, please. Go!

You go on the truck.

You.

You, truck. You, truck.

Komm Truck, there.

Load it up, please.

Go! Down, there!

Where's your pass?

And you, where's your pass, huh?

Get out. Move.

You have no paperwork for this?

Then they were trying to escape.

Kill them.

Muller.

Come with me!

Down here. Come!

Come with me, down to the woods.

No time for that.

No. Please.

Please!

It's not your fault.

I saw over 100 people killed today.

I can still see

the terror on their faces

as I dragged them off the truck.

For a moment, you gave them hope.

More hope than they've had in months.

You've done enough.

You can't fool them forever.

Elek, I love you.

I don't want to lose you.

The Fuehrer has denied our

request to abandon the city

and take up new defensive

positions to the west.

They've ordered us

to fight to the last man.

The city will soon be encircled,

making retreat impossible.

Your car is ready.

Where will you be if I need to find you?

I am going to Berlin.

You have your orders.

Carry on.

Yes, sir, Colonel.

Elek!

Ferenc told me you were going

to an Arrow Cross meeting.

Hannah, please.

Don't ask me not to go.

I'm not.

I'm asking you to come back.

I love you.

Victory over the Russians

is within the reach.

The Jews are collaborating

with our enemies.

The time has come where no

place can be safe for them.

And we will begin today

at the Glass House

by arresting its leader, Miklos Schoen.

This spy and conspirator

can no longer be protected

from his crimes!

You are trespassing on Swiss soil.

You cannot be in here.

This building is protected

by the Swiss delegation.

There. I'm not on Swiss soil anymore.

And neither are you.

Officer, stop!

Enough!

No more of this now.

You risk your life for these?

Our differences of opinion on

the Jews is not the issue here.

You are invading

a Swiss diplomatic mission,

- and I'm ordering you...

- You are ordering me?

Yes, ordering.

The Russians have broken

through our perimeter lines

here and here.

From Berlin.

The Fuehrer orders that everyone

is to maintain their position.

We will pull back...

Forward!

- Hello?

- Hannah.

Marketa?

The fighting is very close.

We cannot stay here.

Wait there.

We will come for you.

Elek, Miklos is dead.

Miklos.

The others are downstairs.

Elek, with Miklos gone,

what will happen?

It will be difficult without him,

but the war will soon be over.

And we cannot lose hope.

Ferenc, where is Hannah?

She went with Jozsef to the convent

to bring them all back here,

but they have not returned.

I'm going after them.

Oh!

Thank goodness!

How are you?

We must leave.

Ferenc!

Take him to the base!

I'm fine.

You and Ari keep going.

Ari, you stay with him.

Do not leave his side.

Ferenc, you're going to be okay.

I will find them.

Do not leave him.

No, no. Other way.

Other way.

Halt! Where are you going?

I asked you a question.

Where are you going?

We were at the convent.

The fighting, it came too close.

We had to leave.

We need to see your papers.

Papers.

Swiss passports.

- They're Jews.

- No. No.

Jews.

Why are you helping them?

Quiet!

Please. Please, just let us go.

Against the wall!

Wait! Wait!

- What are you doing?

- They're Jews!

Have you not seen the

battle going on around you?

There are more important issues now

than killing a bunch of damn Jews!

Muller!

What are you doing here?

The Russians outnumber us four to one,

and they're killing women and children.

They're Jews, sir.

Kill them.

No one shoots!

This is not your decision to make.

No more killing!

Lieutenant!

Who are these people?

This is a Jewish problem.

- Why are you protecting...

- Forget about the Jews!

The Russians are everywhere!

We are surrounded

and they're killing Germans!

Lieutenant, let these people go.

I follow Colonel Eichmann's orders.

Eichmann?

Eichmann has fled, you fool.

I'm in command now.

And I need men defending the city,

not murdering innocent

children and women!

Now back to your posts.

All of you!

Now!

Now, Lieutenant.

- Elek!

- No!

Elek, come with us,

back to the Glass House.

Elek!

Elek!

No!

- Stay.

- No.

Elek...

I love you.

I love you, too.

Please don't...

Please don't leave me.

Please, God.

Can Grandma show off Rachel and

Sofi to some of her friends?

Of course, Mama.

Come on.

What a wonderful wedding for your son.

Thank you.

Excuse me. Um...

I'd like to propose a toast

to my wonderful bride.

To Maria.

Maria!

You know, I'm a...

I'm a very blessed person.

I have good friends and family.

And some of you might know,

my parents were killed in the war.

I was a child with...

...with nowhere to go

until one man

rescued me and put me into the safety

of an orphanage in a church.

Then after the war, I was adopted

and my new parents took me to America

where they brought me up

as if I was their own son.

They taught me how to appreciate life,

the truth...

And happiness.

Now I know my father would

not want me to say anything,

but I know I'm not alone

in wanting to thank him.

The truth is that I and, uh...

...thousands of others

would not be alive today

if it were not for him.

And if it were not for my father,

Elek Cohen.

Looking in the faces

of those who survived,

I see echoes of the ones we lost.

Family, friends,

and many others.

We carry them with us

so they will always live on.

Hey.

- I love you.

- I love you, too.
