The Invincibles (1994) - full transcript

This "extended version" of
THE INVINCIBLES...

...has been restored on the basis
of the original negative images.

The additional added scenes were
not part of the cinema version.

The picture quality of these scenes
is of lesser quality...

...as 35mm material no longer exists.

However, they add to the originally
intended version of the film.

THE INVINCIBLES

Has she already seen the child?

No.
They didn't let her see the baby.

Is she asleep?
- Yes.



The doctors are with her.

They say that she's
singing in her sleep.

Because of the medication.

I thought nothing could go
wrong in our lives anymore.

Come on, Heinz.
It will be fine.

It's not certain yet.

Even though it's so beautiful outside.

Shall I wait for you?
- You don't have to.

Thanks for driving me.

Oh God!

Nurse!

Quick!

Directed by
Dominik Graf

52.000 spectators are in the
stadium to watch this great match.



AS Rome against Juventus Turin.
The current score is 1:1...

Two perpetrators. Both are armed.
Are you there?

Confirm that you're there.

We are.
Roger.

Roger.

The guests from the
room next door are gone.

That goes for 104 and 102.

Roger.

I can't see exactly, but I think one of the
Italians is standing in front of the window.

Those of us who are outside have to get
out of sight, otherwise they'll realise.

Once a goal is scored,
the special forces will go in.

The chambermaid thought it's weird
that they're wearing gloves.

10 Deutschmarks that the next corner
won't lead to a goal.

Okay.
10 Deutschmarks against it.

Silence from now on!
Confirm!

You owe me 60 now.

You forgot the 200 that I lent you.

Silence!

Which 200?

I've been in single service
for eight years now.

I promised myself to do
something new every six years.

My fiancée and I have been waiting
for my transfer for three years now.

I think that answers your question.

Yes, I know what's ahead of us and no,
I don't think it's too much of a burden.

The next one, please.

I do that quite often.

That was almost a whole minute.

I'm a practicing Christian.

I neither eat animals,
nor drink alcohol.

I read the constitution.
For me it says it all.

The constitution and the New Testament
are all I need.

So I'm in?

Great.

He kicks...
Goal!

Police!
Don't move!

Freeze!

Don't move!

Get down!

There was another one.
Chase him!

I'll check outside.

They're inside.
Stay downstairs!

I'm inside 102.

I'm in 104.

I can see the window.
It's open.

Do we have units in the courtyard?

Shut up!
Shut up!

Nobody's in the courtyard.

Shut up!
- What's going on?

I think he left through the window.
I'll go in now.

Now!

Nobody told us about three perpetrators.
We only knew about two.

You get me in there and he
shoots me in the head?

I wasn't covered.
Who covered me?

Now, one man could escape.

My grandpa used to say:
"Close, but no cigar".

The guys regard the
operation as a failure.

Guys, leave us alone.
- Okay.

You too.

Fine.
How long will it take?

I don't know.
- Shall we leave everything as it is?

Yes, that's fine.
We'll get you back in later.

Secretary of State Dessaul is the
representative of the interior ministry.

He knows about the matter.

Thanks for your effort, gentlemen.

Only policemen knew that I'd come
to the room from downstairs.

Do you know how precisely he
opened the door with his foot?

You should have seen
how quick he did it!

What should Karl have done?
The other guy knew what he did.

He wasn't just any old criminal, but
trained and had an invented biography.

Could you let him talk?

I don't want to undermine
your self-confidence.

This is highly discrete:

The man who fled really was an informant
of my Office of Criminal Investigation unit.

I asked him to buy a large amount
of forged money from the arrested.

When we were sure that the deal would
take place here today, I requested you.

How high is the amount
of seized, forged money?

25 million.

Why didn't you tell us about the
informant beforehand, Mr. Erlsberg?

Operations of this kind...
- This could have gone out of control.

Not to mention the danger
you put your own man in.

Done?

I always treat operations like this secretly,
as information might leak otherwise.

My man was responsible for his own
safety. He had to knock you down.

Otherwise his cover would
have been blown. I'm sorry.

I don't have a problem with that.

I'm simply doing my job.
And I'm good at it.

Nobody doubts that.
- What's the real name of your informant?

I don't want to talk about this sensitive
subject. I just explained that to you.

They're not asking for fun.
- Mr. Erlsberg!

Chief Inspector Karl Simon thinks the
informant was a former colleague.

He worked with him for the
special forces from 1984-1989.

Who is that supposed to be?

The man who knocked me
out was Heinz Schaefer.

But he died four years ago.

He committed suicide.

After he had killed his two
days old child in hospital.

I was there back then.
In front of the hospital.

I drove him there.
We were friends.

I had no idea.

A few days later his motorcycle was
found in Cologne under a Rhine bridge.

A week later he was washed
ashore and found at Baumberg.

That's where all the water
corpses are washed ashore.

The body got into a propeller.

Can anybody in this room
confirm that observation?

You couldn't have found
anyone better than one of us.

To subvert the organized scene.

Do you really think the Office
of Criminal Investigation would...

...work with someone like the person
you described? A child murderer?

My informant isn't dead and his
name has never been Schaefer.

I know my informant's biography,
but of course I won't tell you.

Mr. Simon, are you saying that you don't
trust the body of the state of law?

I think you're just looking
for an excuse for your failure.

Mr. Thingy, Mr. Erlsberg,
I don't care what you think.

Informants who committed crimes?
- Who still commit crimes?

Who enrich themselves on their duty?
- That doesn't exist.

That couldn't happen in a state of law.

Exactly!
- Exactly!

What about the money?

What kind of group has an informant?

More than our A-9?

Can you imagine what must
have happened four years ago?

That's the worst. I don't even
know what to imagine.

Did he want to kill himself?

Was he pressurised
after the hospital?

Bernd!

Bernd!

I never really got to know Heinz.

You know that him and you
were in a different group.

You know how he looked!

You were the first one in
the room this afternoon.

I can only see one guy still standing in
front of me. With a hole in his throat.

What? What did he say?
- Calm down!

Don't show off!

You can be pissed off about your jobs
when you're on patrol in a few years.

When you earn 3,300 Deutschmarks a
month to stand at squares saying:

Your driver licence, please.

I'm going to buy a dog.
I promised my kids a dog.

I want to die in my own bed.

Does this make sense?

Five years.

Here!
Three!

I know what I saw.

They get that in writing.
- No!

You never managed...
- No one does that to me...

...claim that I cover my fail
by opening a colleague's grave.

I'm going to...

Even if he died three times...
- You can't control it. Let it be, Karl.

That's why they didn't find the head.
Are you kidding me? The eels?

You know...
At Leverkusen...

The thin acid corroded him.

All of this makes no sense.

Five fucking, lick my years...
- Dude, stop!

Yes! Yes! Yes!
- Stop that!

Yes! Yes! Yes!
- Stop that!

Stop!

Shit!
Come on, let's go!

Damn, he cut right into it!

Stop it!
Don't move!

Get a doctor!

You are a Santa Claus!

Hey! Hey! Hey!

Stop it!

You're some Santa Claus!
What are you doing?

ONLY FOR OFFICIAL USE

Is there a copy at the department?

Not anymore.

I can't allow an investigation
take place in this case.

Mr. Dessaul!

Your dog is destroying our garden.

Down!

Down!

Why did I have to force you
to give me this story?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but why
would I have never found out...

...if not some policeman had
recognised him?

Why would I, as your superior
would never have seen this?

It's just a question.

My superior is the head of the
Office of Criminal Investigation.

He doesn't know and I
wouldn't have shown him this.

Not so loud, please!
My wife is at home.

If I understand this correctly, you got
Schaefer out of business four years ago.

He faced his department
after killing his child...

...and really wanted to kill himself
after a few days.

We kind of arranged
that for him, Holger.

What this says...

What Schaefer did will blow
up half the government.

That's the decisive part.

I know. But he'll keep a low profile.
Besides us, nobody knows that he exists.

They cut off the head
of another drowning.

In hospitals they often do that
for teaching purposes.

What's that?
Are you injured?

Don't make a fuss.
Where is the dog?

Bootsmann!

Bootsmann!

What is he talking about?

He wants to buy a dog for the boys
and call it Bootsmann.

One should get a dog
in springtime, Karl.

Alright, in springtime then.
- Exactly.

You've become so fat!

He's as heavy as bells.

There are snails under my bed.

Snails?
Come on, Basti!

There are no snails under your bed.
Go back to sleep.

Mum will come soon.

Lothar?

I have to call Anja. Otherwise
she'll think I won't come home.

Go to bed as well.

Whoever is fulfilled
with love is impotent.

Easy for you to say.
You have no family.

That's good.
I thank God every day.

Did something happen on duty?

Are you allowed to tell me?

Karl thinks he saw Heinz Schaefer
who died four years ago.

Because of his daughter, right?

She was...
- ...mentally disabled.

He hit her like farmers
beat cats to death.

Maybe in your Sauerland.
In Elspe.

Bernd is drunk as well.
He got a bird from a tree today.

He doesn't remember its name.

I haven't had such a
great birthday in a long time.

Where are the snails?

What had happened to
Heinz Schäfer's daughter?

Where are the snails?
- She got too little oxygen during birth.

The umbilical cord was
around her throat.

I can't see no one.

I am Simon the explorer.

Yes.
- Yes.

I'm the indestructible explorer.

Yes.
- Yes.

What was his wife's name again?
The blond one? She wasn't from here.

No, she was from...
- Angelika.

No, her husband called
her differently.

Sunny.

Nothing's changed.

There are new lamps in the kitchen.

Do you still work in the
haulage firm at Freilingrath?

Yes.

You look tired, Sunny.

Why didn't you show up anymore?

I think the time was over, right?

Or not?

Aren't you together with a new guy?

No.

When he was still here,
it looked differently.

Something was always lying around.

Heinz couldn't even make a sandwich
without letting something lie around.

The bread, the knife...

I completely forgot her name.

Could you stay with me
for a night again?

Back then you were...

One thought that if the wind blew through
the house, it would take you along.

You have dry hands.

I've known you for longer than Heinz.

Do you know how I came from Berlin?

I was a waitress in Conti's
ice cream parlour.

He comes to me every night.

In my dreams.

He holds me.

But the way they found him.

He has no...

...head anymore.

The propeller.

I know why you had sex
with me back then.

Couldn't you do that again?

Out of pity?

Help me!

You can't mourn your husband
for the rest of your life.

But I love him.

More than anything in the world.

HQ, please answer!

Here's HQ.
I can hear you.

I found the colleague.

So?

It was nothing.

She has no idea.
She thinks he's dead.

Come on,
let's leave, Hannes.

I won't go crazy over this.

Where are you now?

Airport tunnel.
The minister landed late.

Hurry up and get him here. We can only
enter the hotel through the backdoor.

There are about 200 demonstrators.

Tell the grieving group over there.
Come on! Overtake us.

There's a group of demonstrators
in front of the hotel.

I thought the meeting is secret.

It leaked! Guys, I promised
my wife to have a nice day.

Television stations are already there.
- Awesome, will I be on TV?

Maybe they need a riot for their ratings.

We have to go to the backdoor
with the minister.

After the surprising decision to
close the Rhenus steelworks...

...2,000 people are afraid for their job.

Many came here to demonstrate
against losing their jobs.

Against losing their jobs and against
Interior Minister Reinhard Hilferding.

He just arrived.

The hotel management wants to tell you...

...that your stay on
the premises is trespassing.

Hilferding, you sod!
Come here! It's your fault!

I won't let you say that! We can talk
about everything, but not like this.

Why did we even vote for you assholes?

I made the heads relent!

Nobody's listening to you, you fraud!

Otherwise all of you
would be unemployed now.

I want to talk to the people!
- Sure, but it's a bad day for that, minister!

Imagine what would happen if the six
of us marched to the executive floor?

That'd be the end of
champagne and celebrations.

The colloquial language would return
to politics. I can promise you that.

You can be sure of that.

The people here feel like they
were deceived for a long time.

How can I get the
salmonella out of here?

You'll get a new one.
- I have a second suit in my car outside.

That's not what this is about.
I have a second suit in my car as well.

Dessaul.
Nice to meet you.

We know each other from the operation
in Graf Adorf Hotel last week, right?

As good as new.

You wrote a report, right?

Right.

Absolutely.

But there were no more clues about
your claim, as the dead colleague...

No.
At least I didn't find out anything.

You mustn't be shocked now, Sunny.

No. When you're shocked,
the glass breaks.

I'm back.

I've returned to you.

Yes, I know.

You come quite often and talk to me.

You say that it's my fault.

That it's my fault that
you're gone and she's dead.

I'm still working for the police.

But undercover.
Do you understand?

It would have gone on for longer,
but Karl Simon recognised me.

My cover is blown.
- Yes, he was here and asked questions.

You really are here!

I always watched you.

When you went home from Freilingrath.
You still walk too fast.

You don't look at other men.

I never thought you'd stay faithful.

Even after death.

Now I'm back.

No!

You can't just return.

That's worse than all the dreams.

Do you know how often I thought you're
in the house and I talked to you?

I knew that something was wrong.

If this isn't a dream, I'm crazy.

Leave!
Get out of my life!

They covered me back then,
invented the suicide...

I wasn't allowed to see
you during these four years.

When it comes to what I did...

...you would have been in danger.

I went to your grave, Heinz.
I called out:

Give me back my peace!

Let me go, Heinz!

You can't come back now.

Special forces, answer!

Yes, Roger.

Is the meeting over already?

Seems like it.
Most of them are in the disco.

Where's the minister?

On the upper level, where the special
forces are. They'll stay over night.

The man kept an account.

Why are you surprised?
He's an official.

Sure.

Shit!

He was recognised at an operation.
By a former colleague.

Really?

Two years ago I thought about
buying a plane for that money.

A white one for sure.
A white plane like the pope's.

Extinguish the fires!
We're asking for your understanding.

Cabbage Roll, baking politics chicks!
I'm with the crocodiles. Three seven.

Come on, Holger! You don't want
all of us to lose our jobs!

Six people from all the big parties.

I have to protect myself.

How much time have I got?

We have to inform the others,
talk about the timing...

...and who leaves when
for which official reason.

It mustn't be noticeable, right?

Two months?

Ladies and Gentlemen,
I'm sorry to interrupt...

...but we got information about
a conspicuous object in the room.

Please go to the lobby
for now and stay calm!

No reason to panic. We'll take care of
the object. My colleagues will get you out.

That way out!

Last week we had the same spectacle.

Shake it!

Could you please leave?

What are you doing with my dinner?

Why are you staring like that?

There are cultures in which women
are a normal part of the streetscape.

What are you? Federal
Border Police? Special forces?

Incognito.

What's your plan for tonight, Mrs...

Miss Saide.

Pleasure.

I know you mustn't tell your identity.

But when ministers and so
many state secretaries are here...

...the house is full of special forces.

Do you know Mr. Dessaul?

Close?

How close?

He doesn't let people take
pictures of him from the side.

He thinks his profile
isn't dominant enough.

You're as shy as all the virgins.

I can see that.
Second decade?

French ancestry.
Your mother.

They checked on us, Melba.

That's the whole secret.

They asked for our names at reception
and asked for the particulars by radio.

They're doing all of this because of us.

Would you introduce yourselves now?

May I introduce you,
Miss Dessaul, to:

The "Pea Roller"!

"Thunderhip"!

"Happy when glass in hand".

And I'm:
"Wind in the ears".

Be careful. Laughing makes
you fall in love.

Toy department...

Peace, brother.
- Peace!

The lorry-driver fell asleep!

Error.

What's your job, Mrs. Dessaul?
- Didn't the computer say?

No.
- Prestige advisor, so to say.

I have an ad agency that
shapes a party's image.

Which party?
- The one of my husband.

So?
How are the chances?

If elections really could change
anything, they'd be forbidden.

We'll go and catch salmons.

Catch salmons!

Why are you doing this?

My husband's sleeping in there and I
wanted you to keep me in good memory.

Goodnight.

The sun made a great step.

The stars screamed:
We want to come along!

The sun ranted:
You'll stay at home!

Otherwise I'll burn
out your golden eyes!

During the fiery ride.
- During the fiery ride around the world.

The stars went to the
moon and screamed:

Let's move with you.

And you, dear moon, with your shine,
won't burn out our eyes.

And the moon took them
along into the night.

You have to say:
All kids fall asleep!

And scatter dust.

All kids fall asleep.

But we don't yet,
as he didn't get us.

And the sandman
met his friend, the wind.

And with it he flew to earth.

They visited all children
and put all of them to bed.

Sleep well, all children.

Have nice dreams and let
the angels sing in them.

My son will perform again.

The sandman.

Did you come to talk
to me about Heinz?

You think he's a bad person, right?

He surely thought...

What did it get out of life?
The creature that didn't know it existed.

That couldn't recognise mum and dad.

That's no reason to beat
it to death like a farmer.

I didn't know you're Catholic.

We didn't find a place in
other kindergartens.

Who has the most beautiful sheep?

The golden moon!

What do you want?
Help?

Does Heinz want to meet me?

I want to make it easier for
you to put the past to rest.

The police was at my home today.

They were looking for Heinz,
just like you.

They talked about you.

They didn't find anything.

Tell Heinz to hand himself in.
Otherwise I'll find him.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

See you!

Stop it with your suspicions, Karl.

The wild farmer killed himself.
I identified the corpse.

Here, look at this!
Goose liver! Goose liver!

I can see that it's your day off today.

It's my son's birthday.
- Nice, how old?

Four.

I found this in the wardrobe.
It's a sensation!

Poultry!
Guys, poultry!

No mercy!
No mercy!

No mercy, the "Cabbage Roll"!

LUCKY GOOSE

Uli, wouldn't a fledgling
have sufficed?

Yes, who wants to do great things in Love,
whose body has to be prepared for it.

The negro kills the rhino,
to take away its nose.

He turns it into erotic powder
and then waits for ecstasy.

You're more stupid than
a pack of cucumbers.

Norbert!

Yes, I heard what you said.

I asked for an investigation on Heinz.
I wrote a report.

We investigated in Schaefer's house.
- I know.

No results. I understand that
his wife tried to bribe you.

I want to start the early review now.
The groups are waiting.

I don't want to drag anyone
into this. Not even you.

But I want to know the path
that Heinz took.

Why?

What do you do to us,
that all of us work the same?

On, off, on, off, on, off, on.

If I keep getting the impression
that you're mentally fragile...

...there will be consequences
for you, Karl.

I wouldn't even say that
to another one of you.

I normally just watch them go
crazy and suddenly they're gone.

The end.
Over!

Morning!
- Morning.

Morning!

Alright.

Before you'll find out somewhere else:

The State office head of department
Erlsberg was shot...

...in Dusseldorf by an unknown
killer last night.

The interior ministry imposed
a news blackout for the murder.

We only tell you because some of
you had to do with him last week.

It supposedly was revenge
by the organised crime.

Erlsberg came on strong against them.

The bad money operation in the Graf Adorf
Hotel probably got him on the death list.

But of course nobody wants to say
that at a news conference.

We mustn't tell you
more at the moment.

My colleague Klaus will talk
about the roster with you.

Ringringring, the birthday mail is here.

Who wants to go to Africa?

We don't want to travel on our own,
we take Basti with us.

Basti!

Basti!

Are you my dad?
- Basti, no I'm not your dad.

When will dad come?
- Basti, dad will come later.

Bye, Michaela.
- Bye.

At the moment a painting by him
costs 50,000 pounds at Christie's.

He's in Königsfelden
psychiatry, near Zurich.

He's 68 and still waits to
be drafted into military.

Everyone can do as one pleases.

You wanted to talk?

Talk.

How is your companion doing?
Saide?

Well.

Which part does she play?

Do you know what a Cicisbeo is?

She's the beloved of my husband.

I picked her for him.

He accepted it?
- I got her into the marital bed.

She stayed there.

My husband isn't great when
it comes to sexual matters.

He's the kind of lover who has fun...

...trying to give the first
orgasm to uptight young ladies.

But...

...I don't want to lose him.

I know where I belong.

When I'm in deep water.

Do you even pay Saide?

Indirectly.

You're very frank.

I try not to lie when I
want to be with a man.

I know that my life is too short to
waste it with things I don't like.

You have to take me. Otherwise
I don't get anything out of it.

I didn't plan to make our lives
more complicated than they are.

My life isn't too complicated.

I didn't want to disappoint you.

But you're currently my only
chance to find out the truth.

The best way to protect you from
personal crises is a full diary.

Today is my son's birthday.
- Really?

You're making a fist.

You'll hurt yourself.

I got in touch with you because...

...I'd like to talk to your husband.

I'm not his reception.
- I know. Don't misunderstand me.

A member of the Office of
Criminal Investigations...

...was shot in this city last night.

His name is Georg Erlsberg.

If your husband and Mr. Erlsberg
were that good of friends...

...as I assume according
to what I saw...

...it would be important
for me to talk to him.

I think you're exceeding
your competence.

I don't even know your name.

How about you use the
official channel next time?

That's what you call it, right?
- Yes. Sure, I know.

In that case I'd ask you to leave now.

I'd like an answer, Mrs. Dessaul.

Do you know Erlsberg?

I'll ask my husband whether
I'm allowed to answer you.

Yes...

Please do so.

The murder...

I just told you an official secret.

Don't tell anyone.
- Stop joking and leave!

I won't lead you to the door.

I think we should never go
to any doors together again.

Have a nice evening.

What is it?
Are you scared?

Holger, what's wrong?
What are you scared of?

It's the red wine.

You know the reason
for everything, right?

Don't walk around barefooted.

You're esteemed, Holger.

You're in the public's good books.

Talk to me, what's wrong?

I asked for a report about an informant
of the Office of Criminal Investigation.

They say that six well known politicians
got a lot of money two years ago.

From the area of organised crime.

The informant was the money courier.
We even have account statements.

For what?

What?
- What did they get the money for?

Those six blocked a
draft law two years ago.

It was about a bank that was
thought to launder drug money.

Some of the politicians were in
the bank's supervisory committee.

Six people earned very well.

For half a year they earned very well.

And why not?

You covered that back then?
- No, I didn't know it.

The official who gave me the
information was shot last night.

I underestimated it.

They stick together.

Is Hilferding one of them? Are you
afraid of your position if he leaves?

What would you know?

Holger!

Did you try to blackmail someone?

Tell me!

No!

Where's the evidence?

With my lawyer.

Which isn't save enough anymore.
You understand?

If I lose the evidence...

Suddenly it's very quiet here.

The phone isn't ringing anymore.

This is too much.

This really is too much.

Go to sleep.
We'll talk tomorrow.

Show me!

You aren't really with me!
- It's fine, Holger.

You're injured.
That's blood.

Mum!

Mum!

Hold me!

It's fine.
I closed the windows.

You got to know somebody, right?

When you're in a relationship for so long,
you know too much about each other.

But maybe it isn't true.

It isn't.

Basti?

I thought you closed the windows.

What is it?

Basti?

Basti?
- Karl!

Karl!

He's still in the house.

Lothar!
- Be quiet!

We won't go to bed yet?

Stay there!

Stay there!

Stop!

Never get in my way again, Karl.

Get transferred.
Far away from me. Forever.

Karl!

Who is the insured?
- Me, the mother.

What's your name?
- Annalena Becker.

You can't come along.
- Of course I can! He's my son!

Annalena is one word.

Excuse me?
This can't be true!

I don't have to tell you.
I want to get to my son in there!

You won't come in here!
- I will!

Not without your ID.
- I will!

No one can join the examination.

What's going on?

Could you please tell us
what's going on?

We're trying to lower the fever.

How did he get insulin?
Is anyone in your family diabetic?

No.
- No, why?

Your son has a low dose
of insulin in his blood.

If you wait for 30 minutes,
you can take him home again.

Is that spot vacant?

Dad!
Sit next to me!

The phone was occupied.

Immo is waiting at the train station
for you, anyway. He'll take you to Irene.

That's mum's friend.
- Can we play now?

We won't eat enough here.
We'll play in the compartment.

Nonsense!

Could we have two coffees
and two sausages?

Spaghetti! Spaghetti! Spaghetti!
- We've no Spaghetti left.

Asshole!
- Pull yourself together!

Two sausages.

But the bee won't sting again.

A wasp stung you.

A wasp doesn't always
sting when it comes.

They only sting when they're scared.
Like bees.

When you're in love, you can
even hold bees in your hands.

And then close your hands.

And the bee won't sting.

But you have to truly be in love.

Dear travelers, we'll reach Koblenz
in a few minutes, at 11:37 pm.

You can take the next train
to Bingen at 11:52 pm, platform 3.

For information about other trains,
please read our intercity information.

I have to get out at the next station.

Yes.

All the shutters are closed.
- Good.

Clear!

Clear!

Why did you report the
crime with a fake name?

Otherwise I'll get security vacation.
- So what?

What's so bad about
three weeks of rest?

The rest will come soon enough.

I'll be a normal patrol
cop on the market square.

Checking tyres.

Hello, vehicle inspection.

Nothing's forever, right?
- I can't imagine an end for me here.

And...

Nothing that I can't
imagine can happen.

Not even dying?
- I can imagine that.

The head understands that faster
than the bones and the organs.

Like with my father...

I sat by his bed while
he died for three days.

He had his mouth open. The lips dry out,
so you have to wet them constantly.

It took so long.

His heart was so strong.

Do you know what
he said when he died?

He listened to music.

Don't you already
think about stopping?

Are you still with us?
With all your heart?

Sure.

Sure.
Calm down!

I do calm down.

When somebody sits on my face.

Now! Hit me in the face, Norbert.
- Is he mad?

I can stand it!
Hit me in the face!

I'm just as much of an asshole as Heinz.
A stupid special forces sod.

Hit me!

Last night, Schaefer, who doesn't
exist, attacked my family.

Explain this:

The water corpse got into my
child's room and gave Basti a syringe?

Did you know? No? Hit me again.
Maybe then I'll understand.

What about your boy?

Everything we say is being hushed up.

What happened here over four
years is being hushed up, right?

Right? I don't get anything out of it!
- I gave everything to the top.

The reports...
- Not far enough up.

Where our dear God lives.

Don't hit him in the face!

In two days all the shitty lies
will go public.

And I'll get Heinz! I promise!
Otherwise this will happen again!

And never forget that your
own people can hurt you badly!

Good morning.
- Good morning, Mrs. Dessaul.

Good morning.
You already have a visitor.

Really?
- Yes, we couldn't get rid of him.

Who is it?
- He said: "A man you know very well".

But you don't know his name.
- Really? Sounds interesting.

We thought so, too.

Shall I let them get us
some hot water?

To pour in some more?

To stay fit.

I had to convince your
anteroom to let me in.

So I'm a surprise for you.

What do you want to ask me today?

When can I talk to your husband?

My husband's on a journey.
- Until tonight?

Why?

I'm on duty tonight in the conference
centre at the Rhine Stadium.

Your husband's on the guest list.

Yes, that's right, but I don't
know whether he'll be there.

Will you be there?

Yes.

Did you talk to him?

No.
He's on a journey.

You did talk to him.

No.
At least not about you.

Not about me?
Not about us?

You draw a line between
your life and me?

Don't you?
- I do!

I don't like it.

Not this morning.
- Is your life complicated now?

I don't think everything you
imagine has to become reality.

Still...

Did you know that I'd come back?

Desire is a dog that keeps
running after you.

No!

That you're here...

How much time have we got?
- One hour.

And just for once.
- Don't you want to lock the door?

Push that button!

You're scaring me!

Do you like that?
- Yes!

What about your hour?

It'll soon be over.

That makes what humans
built even more admirable.

Downstairs, everything is
full with their limousines.

We have to organise this differently
next time. Nobody can get through.

We're coming
to the Rhine Stadium.

Car two for one.

Answer!

Roger.

We're driving to the underpass
with all the chauffeurs.

Stay ready!

What did he say?
- We can't park upstairs. It's full.

One, please!
- Yes?

The minister arrived.

Roger.

My lawyer informed me.

His office was burgled last night.

The files of the Office of Criminal
Investigations are gone.

Yes?

I have to talk to Mr. Dessaul.

Holger Dessaul. It's about
a file. He knows about it.

Wait, I'll try to contact him.
Wait a sec.

An important call on
Mr. Dessaul's car telephone.

Look whether you can find him.

I've made a mistake.

I won't keep pressurising you,
von Graichen, Struthmann and the others.

Why? It's new that you
don't say what you think.

Or that you don't mean what you said.

I've made a mistake.

Mr. Dessaul! Someone
called your car phone.

I think it's important.

We're coming outside.

Alright.

I'll come along.
I want to talk to him.

You expected a call?
- Yes, from my lawyer.

He confirmed it. Mr. Dessaul,
I'd like to talk to you alone.

Not tonight.

When?

I have an office. Call it
and get an appointment.

You were on a journey for two days.

Why do you think so?
- I heard that.

Nonsense!

If we stay up until six,
can I sleep at yours?

Yes.

I can get something to eat there, right?
- Shall I also dance for you?

That'd be nice.

Throw the radio away!

Throw the radio away!

Keep going!
Keep going!

Take away his gun!
Go!

I didn't hear anything.

There was a message. Where
are the colleagues with Dessaul?

Keep your hands up!

I think they're in the underpass.
Everything was fine.

I told you to keep your hands up!

There was a shot in the underpass!

Get down on the ground!

Put your shoulder to the left!

Here's the special squad!
Repeat!

Get in!
Faster!

An attempted kidnapping.
Three perpetrators, one car.

In the underpass.
I'll try to follow.

I repeat: I'll try to follow.

They have to get past
the stadium upstairs.

Special squad!
Answer!

Special forces are coming.
We're on our way.

I can see the two cars from here.

The chauffeur's driving parallel. The others
are driving against the driving direction.

What's that maniac doing?

Dear God!
My legs!

My legs!

Shit!

Shut up!

Take cover!

What are they doing?
- They're shooting around!

They're leaving through the roof.
Take cover!

Down there!

Faster!
Get out!

The second car!
Where is the second car?

Turn around!

I don't have a gun!
- Catch!

Stay down!

Come on, drive the car here.
Go!

They have a second car over there.
With another guy in it.

Silence!

Stay away!
I'll blow him up!

I promise I'll blow him up!

He has a bomb.

Leave!

Hannes is being
threatened by a bomb.

Don't put your finger away!
Go!

Get in!

Now!
Go!

Go!
- Go!

The bomb!

Ollie!

Step on it!
Go!

Gun down!

Ollie!

They're gone.

Ollie is dead.
Ollie Kaul is dead.

Why didn't you give the "Go"?
- I'd love to know as well.

The situation was obvious. The guns were
always ready to shoot at both hostages.

Nonsense, Karl! There was a moment
when it would have worked out.

I stood behind you.

The perpetrator pushed the
first hostage into the car.

Why didn't you shoot then?
Another mistake?

As in the Graf Adorf two weeks ago?

The perpetrator walked to
the second car. Backwards.

The second hostage...
- It's Hannes. Our drinking Hannes.

"Thunderhip". He has a name.
- I know that! I know!

Hannes was threatened by the
second perpetrator's bomb.

I told you via radio.

I don't think Olli had
the right to give the Go.

I don't think we should
jump to conclusions, Karl.

The way the kidnapping took place
allows the conclusion...

...that the perpetrators have one
or more accomplices amongst you.

When reconstructing what took
place on the parking spot tonight...

...one realises that you had
the chance to give the "Go".

Why didn't you?

First of all, I was too far away.
- Why? You have good eyes.

Secondly, Hannes Grigull
was threatened with a bomb.

Third of all I was irritated by the fact
that I recognised one of the perpetrators.

It was Heinz Schaefer.

The former colleague who supposedly
committed suicide four years ago.

There's one thing I have to say:

The assumption that this
questioning is based on, is an insult.

I've been working for the
special forces for twelve years.

...in this unit for three years.
- Mr. Helmer!

Tell us about the operation on the
24th of August in the Graf Adorf Hotel.

Mr. Falk! Have you ever been offered
participating in criminal activities...

...from members of the
group or non-members?

Repeat that, please.

Mr. Mannheimer, do you know the secret
number of Mr. Dessaul's official car?

0171...
1579462.

Do you know why we're
asking you question?

I guess the call that lured Mr. Dessaul
out of the hall, was from the kidnappers.

It certainly wasn't from
Mr. Dessaul's lawyer.

Someone from Mr. Dessaul's environment
must have given the number away.

Or a member of your group.

The secret number was
changed two days ago.

It was on your duty plan
since yesterday.

I didn't recognise the perpetrators.

Shit!

Okay. Maybe I saw Schaefer
once or twice in my life.

But with that lighting,
at that distance I hadn't even...

...been able to recognise my
own father, with that balaclava.

I don't know, why Karl
Simon thinks so. I don't.

How did you recognise the perpetrator
from a thirty to forty metre distance?

He was hooded.

His movements and eyes.

After working together for five years,
you can identify a man in your sleep.

The way he holds a gun,
or a cigarette.

Hannes Grigull can confirm
Schaefer's existence.

He must have recognised
him in the first getaway car.

Mr. Grigull can't be questioned yet.

The kidnappers want
me to tell you this:

I'm fine according to circumstances.

There is no immediate reason
to be worried.

The ransom demand is, due to my family's
assets, nine million Deutschmarks.

I repeat: Nine million.

Otherwise I'll be executed.

Melba, I love you.

To identify me, I shall say something
that only you know about me.

What happened? What is it?
Can I help you?

When our Irish Setter died
two years ago, you replaced...

...his basket with a vase,
so the spot wouldn't be so empty.

We'll call again.

Mr. Simon!

We had the opportunity to check
your statements over night.

About the Graf Adorf Hotel,
the attack on your child and tonight.

The key to your story about the
dead informant Heinz Schaefer...

...seems to be his wife,
Angelika Schaefer.

I guess she already left the country.

In a foreign country,
you think?

If I were Schaefer, I'd
have sent her on a journey.

Mrs. Schaefer, please take a seat.

Can you recognise one
of the voices on this tape?

No.

When did Mr. Simon visit you
for the first time this summer?

On the 25th of August.
I got back from work.

That was the day after the
operation in the Graf Adorf Hotel.

He asked me whether I'd be ready
to claim that my husband was still alive.

What?
Wait!

We already know what you
said happened. Keep going.

I didn't understand.
My husband died tragically back then...

I loved my husband and...

But more than a week later,
I think it was the fifth...

...he ordered me to
come to the kindergarten.

You went there?
- He said it's important.

What happened there?

There was a performance
with children on stage.

His son performed there.

It was loud and we went into a corner.

That's true.

He then gave me the
envelope with money.

Maybe a few thousand Marks.
I didn't see it too well.

He once again asked me to tell
the police that my husband...

...was alive and that I'm
in contact with him.

I refused.

I gave back the money.

And then?

I went home.

You haven't had contact since then?

No.

Thanks, Mrs. Schaefer. Thanks for
your testimony. You can leave now.

Sunny?

Who will take care of her grave
when you two leave the country?

If she had survived, I probably
would have bought her a bird couple.

Little budgies in green,
with red beaks.

You always buy two...
- Lovebirds.

For whom had you bought them?

I had a daughter.

Katrin.
She'd be four now.

Do you know this envelope?

Sunny gave me a similar one.
- In kindergarten?

Do you know what's in it?

About 2,000 Deutschmarks.
- 20,000 Deutschmarks.

Notes that are registered by the
Office of Criminal Investigations.

You want to know where we found them?
- Yes.

In the basement of your house.
Tonight, while we searched it.

How did you get the money of the
Office of Criminal Investigations?

And where's the rest?
- What rest?

Your fingerprints are on it.
- What?

Your fingerprints are on it.

Simon, you're in deep trouble.
- Of course they are, if this is the envelope.

If I wanted to bribe the woman, I wouldn't
keep the envelope in my house.

The phantom of her husband
deposited it at yours?

I don't know why Schaefer
hates me so much.

The night before last
night he attacked my child.

He must have placed the
envelope there then.

Sure.
We'll get to that.

This money got lost at an operation
in the Graf Adorf Hotel, four weeks ago.

So far we assumed that the agent
who was supposed to buy the money...

...ran away with it.
- Mr. Schaefer?

We don't know a Schaefer.
The informant is called Ralph Hürten.

He was a member of
Erlsberg's department.

Of course. You got him
a perfect new identity.

And everything else you just...
- We have a different theory.

You let Hürten escape from
the hotel with the money.

You two had that planned.

With the money you planned the kidnapping
of Mr. Dessaul and prepared the details.

To cover your accomplices,
like Hürten...

...you made up that crazy story of
the resurrected Heinz Schaefer.

He threw himself into the Rhine
four years ago in Leverkusen.

Clever as you are, you used the
fact that his head was never found.

My son was attacked two days ago.
- You didn't report that.

I didn't want to be given leave.

Because you hadn't been
here for the kidnapping tonight.

Any other man in your position
would've killed the kidnapper.

You have no idea about that.

Attacking your child was an attempt to
make your Schaefer story more believable.

After Mrs. Schaefer didn't
want to help you.

What happened to your son?
Nothing! You said it yourself.

The hospital confirmed that.
The dosage was well calculated.

That was a distraction.

I'm the only one who
knows that he's alive.

He attacked my child to make
me believe that I'm in danger.

At the same time he put
the money in my basement.

To make me unreliable.

Do you think I did that myself?

You used others for the execution.

Mr. Simon!

Your contradicting testimonies
make us assume...

...that you participated
in kidnapping Mr. Dessaul.

Your boss's pleading's the only reason that
no legal steps were taken against you so far.

You and your whole group
are suspended from now on!

You mustn't leave Dusseldorf
until the regulation is abolished.

The ministry imposed a news blackout
on the kidnapping of Mr. Dessaul.

Contact to journalists or other
people of the public is forbidden.

Of course everything we
talked about is an official secret.

Yes!

I talked to Dr. Soussan.

Mr. Grigull will keep the hearing damage.
The doctor said he'll keep a blast injury.

How bad?

He'll always hear this tone.

The piping.
For the rest of his life.

He can wear a deaf aid, so he can
hear sounds and talks.

Does he know that?
- Yes.

Did you take care of
the decoration in there?

Yes.

You did a good job.

The bomb!

Karl?

Karl?

Hey!

If he survives, I'll kill him.

That sod!

If anybody finds out anything
we'll talk about now...

I'll put it differently. If one of you
doesn't want to hear this, leave now.

Not any later.

From now on we can do
it together, or not at all.

We have to find out the truth.

One of us is an accomplice of the
kidnapper. We can agree on that.

Yes.

First I want to know, whether one
of us is an informer of the bosses.

Stop that.

Forget it.
That doesn't count anymore.

If you send everyone out who's
tasked to observe you, you'll be alone.

That's not the point, Ulli.
- Why not?

The point is that Karl is right.
- Why should Karl be right?

Hannes must have waited for
the second perpetrator at the escalator.

Otherwise he would have
turned around earlier.

And Karl would have reacted sooner.

I saw the same thing that you did.
Hannes went to the ground.

No! He didn't.
But he should have!

Mum and Irene are shopping. They
promised to get batteries for the electro...

Stop it!
- What are you doing?

Basti is trying to hit me with the harmonica.
Now he's getting the broom.

Don't hit each other!
- He can't. He's too small.

I'm not small!

Immo said I saved 65 Deutschmarks.
How much do you have?

You can't even count,
you narcoleptic.

65, lalala.
65, lalala.

Is mum crying?
- No.

She is. She is. She is.

That's not true!

Ladies and Gentlemen,
you know who's talking.

If you hear this, you and the minister
are sitting together, scared.

Worrying that our business
will be made public by me.

That won't happen.

We have the same goals.

When did you get the tape?
- Two hours ago.

As I already told the minister,
I freed you from the person who...

...poses the biggest problem
for me and you.

Don't forget that I was
trained not to be defeated.

I'll use my means now.

Mr. von Graichen, Minister Hilferding,
you earned a lot through me.

Now I'll earn money and
you won't say a word.

Since I was recognised, Germany
has become dangerous for me.

My leader, Erlsberg, knew that
and wanted to put me off.

To protect myself from revenge,
I'll return to the realm of dead.

I won't be alone on my way there.
You can prepare your black suits.

Yes?

Sorry.

I bet you want to see Hannes
Grigull, right? He's gone. He left.

He just left.
- He simply left.

This morning.
- This morning.

Karl!

Karl!

I thought we'd meet in Hannes's room?

Why are you on your own?

Why shouldn't I come on my own?

The others are supposed
to keep an eye on you.

What didn't you tell me?

Why did Grigull run
away from hospital?

Why didn't I give the "Go"?

To prevent what happened.
You remember?

We once went over what happens if the
hostage is the perpetrator's accomplice.

When the hostage only
acts like a hostage...

...there's no possibility
for an access.

But the hearing trauma was real.

Let's think about what you
can do with a hearing trauma.

I can pull a trigger, drive a car,
accept my share of the money...

I can have a flight booked
for me. That's a good start.

How would you know that
Grigull was one of them?

Norbert, you know that they'll
send us on patrol duty.

What's your plan?

We'll find out where he'll
get the money. That's easy.

We're involved.

You can report us or cover us.
It doesn't matter anymore.

You'll stay right
where you are!

Yes.
Yes, 5082.

Will you open?

Come on!
Quicker!

In two days, we'll be in Angra
dos Reis, watching the sunset.

In three weeks, we'll have
forgotten who we were.

Am I too loud?

I don't think Sunny will like this.

What?

Flying on her own.

In the case of the kidnapping
of undersecretary Holger Dessaul...

...the crisis committee of Dusseldorf's
police and minister Reinhard Hilferding...

...reminded the press about the
news blackout, this morning.

It was confirmed that the
negotiations with the kidnappers...

...leave hope for a peaceful
end of the kidnapping.

We have no information about
the demands of the perpetrators.

Minister Hilferding denied a connection
between the kidnapping...

...of Holger Dessaul and his job
in the investigation committee...

...of the government that's
working against organised crime.

Gentlemen!

This morning, you'll accompany Mrs. Dessaul
on her train ride to Munich.

Yesterday, we got
a letter that demands...

...the money being handed
over in Munich's city centre.

The kidnapper will probably only
contact her at Munich central station.

He'll probably try to stop preventive
measures by the special forces.

In the package with the letter,
there was a red coat and a yellow bag.

That way, the kidnapper will be
able to recognise Mrs. Dessaul.

To prevent all risks, the government will
expect all officials to follow all orders.

The hostage's life has top priority.

A message for Mrs. Dessaul has
already been left at Hotel Königshof.

She should wait in a pub
in the city centre.

It's called "Wine cellar at the cathedral".
Was she already told that?

Yes, she knows that.

She should leave her friend now.

Does she know the
way to the wine cellar?

We showed it to her on the map.

The city centre isn't blocked by us.
That'd be too conspicuous.

We'll just keep watching.

She has to walk through
the whole pedestrian area.

We'll take over from the exit onwards.

Bye, colleagues from Dusseldorf.
Have a good journey home.

We have two watchdogs. One is with
her and splits up with her at Ettstreet.

Yes.
We can already see her coming.

It's hard to overlook that woman.
- That's the whole point.

She only has two people
left around her.

We'll let her walk through Cathedral lane
on her own. It's too open there.

Roger. We have seven
people in the wine cellar.

It's always half empty at this time.
They haven't noticed anything.

She's walking down the lane.
She found it.

Is this yours?

Yes.
- A man gave it to me.

She has contact to a little girl.

She's giving her
something made of silver.

A box or case.

Describe her!
- Ten or eleven years old.

Long black hair. She's running away.
Catch her! Catch her!

Catch her!

1. INTO YOUR EAR
2. SWITCH ON

Bonjour, Madame.
I hope you had a good journey.

And I hope you can
understand me well.

I'll be your companion on
your way, Mrs. Dessaul.

First we'll get rid of your followers.

Just keep going until I tell
you something else, okay?

Stay calm. You don't
have to be worried.

Did you see the café
you just passed?

Turn around and go back.

Go into the café.

There are stairs to
the toilet at the back left.

Go there!

But you mustn't be shocked.
You'll see your mirror image soon.

Stay calm and keep going.

Don't let anyone recognise anything.

She went to the toilet.
Maybe there's another exit.

She's coming back.
She's leaving towards Theatinerstreet.

We did a good job.

Take off your coat and leave the café.

She's coming towards us.

Go back to Theatinerstreet.

Everyone at Prielmayerstreet,
go back to Captainhall.

Roger.

Nobody said anything
about running. Stay calm!

Who's running? We only have
three people in the throughway.

She has to stay with her!

She looks like her friend
from the central station.

Now you're heading onto the street.

Please get in, Mrs. Dessaul.
Put the bag in the back.

Get in!

Who's that?

Get lost!
- Are you alone or is anyone watching us?

I'm alone.

In that case, drive!

There was a woman with a yellow bag at
Prielmayerstreet. She was pushed into a car.

What? She's in Theatinerstreet.
- She didn't wear a red coat.

Registration number?
- M-FX-8800. Black Mercedes.

She's with us. We'll follow
her into the passage.

I'm warning you, Karl!

If anything goes wrong because of you,
I'll make your life a living hell.

Trust me!

Trust me for once.

It looks as if she got an instruction.

She went behind a pillar.
- What about the Mercedes?

We can see her in the shopping passage.
We'll keep our distance and wait.

She's behind the pillar.

Where are you going?

I only know that I have to get
on the motorway to Garmisch.

In 20 minutes I'll get a call.

There's a coat for the woman.

Where are you going that it's so cold?
It's padded.

It's great when you can
finally let yourself go, right?

It has to be tough to
always contain yourself.

The trust in people like you mustn't
be damaged even more, right?

I want to ask a question.

Aren't you scared that
I could identify you later?

I know you think I failed,
because I didn't protect your husband.

But that's not true.

I couldn't give the command, because the
other hostage was one of the kidnappers.

You can't cause anything,
but a catastrophe then.

You risk my husband,
the handover and everything!

Do you think I'm crazy?
I know what I'm doing.

You don't have to worry.

Why didn't you call?

I can't contact you privately.
I'm a simple policeman.

I don't want to hurt you.

No need to be ashamed in
front of me. That's not necessary.

You once said that you don't lie.

Get into the car, please.

I can't breathe in here.
- Get out!

That thing is like a coffin.
- Pick up the phone!

And what shall I say?
- Get in!

Say that the woman
was on the toilet.

Yes.
Paschotta speaking.

Yes...
No!

At a rest stop.
Yes, the woman needed to pee.

What?

I'd like to talk to Mrs. Dessaul.

Yes?

Mrs. Dessaul, please say:
"It's nice to meet you" in French.

Yes!

The exact kilometre information!

The exact kilometre information!

30.5.
- 30.5.

Alright.

I'll lead you to the
handover place now.

You won't drive faster
than 100 km/h.

I'll call you in twenty
minutes with the exact route.

Gentlemen, we lost Mrs. Dessaul.

The kidnappers sent a message
via a phone that can't be located.

They now have Mrs. Dessaul as well.

If we follow the car with the second
hostage, we're risking her life.

The Bavarian officials informed us that they
won't chase the kidnapper's car any further.

The risk is too high.
They're only on guard.

So they let them get away?
- Yes.

All of us agree that saving
the hostage is of top priority.

The kidnappers probably have several
security measures until the handover.

Yes?

Kilometre information!

62.5.
- 62.5.

Take the next exit and
drive to the left then.

Through the village.
Repeat that!

Take the next exit, drive to the
left and through the village.

Is my husband fine?

I know where we're heading.
The Karwendel at Mittenwald.

I was there with Heinz once.

There's a tunnel through
the summit station.

It leads right to Austria.

Yes, I know that, Karl.
One can walk up there.

There's a path.
- Exactly.

He'll send us there via detours.

Okay. We'll drive there.
- Who are you talking to?

The "Pea Roller".

Okay, we'll have an advance of one hour.
I'll take the two to the path.

Great.
Mountaineering isn't my hobby.

Look ahead!

You can forget blacks
at a height of 3000 metres.

A little vacation with leather pants.

They won't even let you
up there, "Cabbage Roll".

Until we're up there, it'll be dark.

Do you have your passports
in case you get lost, children?

We mustn't forget that we're facing at
least one perfectly trained perpetrator.

And he has an incredible confidence.

One should think about exchanging
the men every five years.

With their confidence being polished for so
long, it's normal that this hybris comes up.

Yes.

Continue on the country road to Mittenwald.

After the town sign you
have to drive to the centre.

After the town exit sign
you have to drive back.

Turn right after 1.5 kilometres.
To the Karwendel mountain station.

Mrs. Dessaul, put on the
coat that's provided for you.

Go to the gondola and
wait for more instructions.

Keep going!
In there!

Make yourself flat!
Flat!

Karl?

It's fine. He's a
colleague of mine.

Are Gerd and "Cabbage Roll"
already there?

They've been walking for an hour.
Through the ass into enjoyment.

See you.

We're at the top.

I see two people at the gondola.
Otherwise, everything's quiet.

The light is on.

I can see the light, you idiot.

I'm going to the platform. Only
position code from now on. Over.

Yes?

Close the door, Mrs. Dessaul.

Push the green button
above the phone.

It's a bit windy, but besides
that it's fine down here.

A great view.
All of Mittenwald.

It's great here.

We'll get your husband.

Is everything okay?

Sit down!

Yes?

Mrs. Dessaul, could I talk to my colleague?

Get him on the phone!

What's wrong?
Is there a problem?

Did you see that?
He cut his throat!

That sod!
That sod!

He knows that we're coming.

Mrs. Dessaul! Once you've arrived
up here, quickly go to the sun terrace.

Say hello to Karl.
You may hang up now.

We'll do anything he'll say.

Nothing uncontrollable will happen.

Stay calm!
Stay calm!

Breathe in and out!
Okay?

I found a baby on my way
and take off its nappy now.

Roger!

Where are your colleagues?
Are they at it?

It's done.

He wanted to blow us up.

I'll get that sod!

Turn the coat around.
It reflects.

Holger?

Take cover!

He can't do that!
I had to shoot off his hands.

He has a
circulatory shock.

The pleasures of the flesh
confuse the mind.

Where is my husband?

What about my husband?

Please get away from the terrace
and put the coat on correctly.

That's what it's there for.

Everyone does as I say!

Go!

Thanks for bringing the
money here safely, Karl.

You won't leave without
giving us Dessaul!

He's gambling with your
husband's life, madame.

You have something that is mine.
Throw it into the circle of light.

Take your money!

Or don't you have the courage?

But I'm here!

Don't shoot!

Don't shoot!

Hey, stay there!
Stay there!

Mr. Dessaul, do me a favour
and show me what's in the bag.

I want to see every note.

We have time.

Starlight and heaven's light
are breaking through the skies.

Wishes come true,
for those who believe in you.

Stay down...

You sod!
You want to shit me!

I can't see anything.

Holger!

Heinz!
Stop!

Get on the ground!

Heinz!

Is it you, Karl?

Shut up! You'll have
enough to tell in Dusseldorf.

ATTENTION
BORDER

Where is Bernd?

Where are you?

Karl! Answer me!
Where are you?

We have to drive!
This man needs help! A doctor!

Bernd is here!

He's doing poorly.
We have to drive!

No! Don't drive!
No way!

He's still around. You'll drive
right into his field of fire.

Give me the radio.

What do you mean,
we'll drive into his line of fire?

Karl?

What did he mean?
What's his plan?

What's his plan?

What's his plan?

I don't know.
- What's his plan?

I don't know.
- What's his plan?

I don't know.
- What's his plan?

The man needs a doctor.
That's your responsibility..

You understand what I'm saying?

If you risk someone's life because
of the paranoia of some policeman...

...and we keep waiting, everything
that happens is your responsibility.

Karl! Answer me!
We have to drive!

Holger, help me!
- Shut the door! Shut the door!

Answer! Bernd is doing shitty.
Where are you?

Shit!

Karl, where are you, dammit?

Where are you?

Heinz!

Take the money and get lost!

Think about Sunny.

I could get you if I wanted to.

Leave!

Leave!

What's wrong?
I heard a shot! Karl?

How can the light be turned on in here?
- Why don't you do that?

From where can the gondola be seen?

There are steep slopes everywhere.

No!

No!

No!

Cover yourself! Come into
the corner! Away from him!

You sod!

Shitty boxes!
- Holger!

I should have known!

Bernd! Stay awake!
Stay awake!

What's wrong?
- I didn't know this.

Gerd!
Answer me!

Everything's burning! The boxes
were prepared like little bombs.

We can't throw them out anymore.
- Can you bear it?

Only just.

Don't open a window, otherwise
there will be a fire roller.

Stand it for as long as possible.

We can't cope much longer.
Bernd is unconscious, what shall we do?

My radio's batteries are melting.
Can you hear me?

Get out after the second pillar. It has a
ladder and it's only ten metres down.

Can you hear me?

Heinz!

Why?

What for?

The only reason for the kidnapping of
Mr. Dessaul was the ransom money.

Mr. Dessaul was in the investigation
committee that was supposed...

...to see how much influence organised
crime had on the government...

...but so far we can't say whether
the kidnapping had to do with it.

Why was the local police in
Mittenwald informed that late?

Dusseldorf's special forces had the
task to protect Mrs. Dessaul...

...take her to the handover
place and monitor the handover.

After the shootout that lead to the death
of the hostage and the fire in the gondola...

...the officials first wanted to evacuate
the gondola as quickly as possible.

Good! Keep going!
Come! Come!

My husband! He'll burn! My husband!
- Faster! Keep going!

One more!
One more!

Please!
- Keep going!

Take the rope and slide down!

Hannes!

My hands!

Hannes!

I profoundly regret the death
of Holger Dessaul.

It fills me with rage, but it seems
to be a tragic series of misfortunes.

Please stay at the door in the room.
Otherwise you'll have to wear a face mask.

He'll die.

Don't be shocked. Mr. Grigull can't
lie normally as his burns are too severe.

So far the investigations
point towards the conclusion...

...that Holger Dessaul was picked,
because he was rich.

And because there was a
promising access option...

...due to one of the kidnappers, the
special forces member Johannes Grigull.

It's me.

"Wind in the ears".

I didn't want anything
to happen to our people...

Neither Ollie, nor Bernd
and "Colour Error".

In that case everything's fine.

That he'd shoot Dessaul...

He didn't tell me all that.

I stated that only
Heinz and I were involved...

I didn't get the impression that
there was much interest in Heinz.

Why?

Why, why?

Why didn't you just place a bomb in a
church at Christmas to blackmail priests?

Were you pressurised by Heinz?
I just want to know.

Three weeks ago he came to me.

He talked to me...

You know...

With me it doesn't matter....

No family...

No...

I see it differently than you.
- What do you think?

Well...

Incidentally one gets used to it.

To win...

I didn't want to go on patrol again...

At the station with young snots.

Once you're used to it...

There's more...

Do you think I'll fall asleep before...

Don't leave!

I wished my heart wasn't this strong.

Karl!

Mrs. Dessaul claims that the kidnapping
of her husband was a planned murder.

I'll reveal the conspiracy of the murderers
who act like my husband's friends now.

Their shock is a masquerade.
They initiated the kidnapping.

They did business with organised crime
and my husband was able to prove that.

Her husband supposedly
threatened the responsible...

...to go public with his
knowledge, a few weeks ago.

That's why the kidnapping was
arranged and he was murdered.

The theory of the accident is a farce.

The headshot that killed my
husband wasn't made public yet.

The kidnapper was a trained murderer,
a former cop. The ransom was his payment.

She got a lawyer and wants
you to testify for her.

Me?

Hello.

Yes.
Come on.

We don't want to gloss
over anything, Karl.

But do you think I'm
the member of a...

...political conspiracy against
a little undersecretary?

Can you imagine that?

I did let you go.
I accepted full responsibility.

Why didn't you inform
the Bavarian colleagues...

...when you knew
where you were heading?

Listen, Karl! I think both of us aren't too
interested in everything going public, right?

Neither is our department.

That's why I want you to
remember, that being a policeman...

...you can't be relieved from
your official secret.

Good morning.
- Good morning, Norbert.

Mr. Simon just told me that
he quits his job as a policeman.

He'd like your lawyer to contact him.

He said he'll do anything
to help finding the truth.

Bootsmann!

Bootsmann!

Make sure they don't get close to the pool.
They're still small, they can't swim.

Bootsmann!

Bootsmann!

It fell asleep.

Yes.
