00:12Oh, my God.
00:30Out? What do you mean, out?
00:32I sent the release paper last night.
00:35Eight.
00:37But this is wonderful. Wonderful.
00:40Well, we know Luther and his surprises.
00:51I think we've met in Munich in the summer.
00:57My husband was with the Japanese delegation.
01:03That's just that.
01:04Oh, sadly, I was unable to attend.
01:08Oh, my dear, what a sight you missed.
01:12All those glistening athletic bodies.
01:16These beautiful Aryan boys, indeed.
01:19It's the Olympic ideal at its purest.
01:23Yes, that too.
01:28Woo!
01:30Woo! Yeah! Come on!
01:33Oh, for goodness sake!
01:35Oh, well, I'm sorry.
01:37I think you may be drunk here, Windjimmer.
01:39I'm smashed permanently, isn't everyone?
01:42Well, my wife doesn't look in the mood for goodwill to all men.
01:47Heil Hitler.
01:50Meine Damen und Herren,
01:54I bid you welcome to my, um, little home.
02:01On this night, the Fondbordes have gathered to celebrate the Feast of St. Nicholas.
02:09For the benefit of our guests from overseas, this is a particularly German tradition.
02:17St. Nicholas brings presents to the good children.
02:22And the wicked children are visited by.
02:26Well, we have all that to look forward to.
02:31But this year is a particularly special occasion.
02:35If you know your Bible,
02:38you will be aware of the parable of the prodigal son.
02:44Meine Damen und Herren,
02:46it is time.
03:14Excuse me.
03:15Excuse me, please.
03:19Oh, excuse me, boys. Thank you.
03:23Oh, you stood me alive.
03:31One pretzel, possibly pre-war.
03:34Eh?
03:35All the buffet had to offer, though buffet is being charitable,
03:39and the promise of coffee was more like a threat.
03:42One of the more insignificant effects of losing a world war, I suppose.
03:45The decline in the quality of on-board victuals.
03:48How about a bacon sarnie?
03:50If only.
03:52Trotty thought ahead.
03:55Mrs. Book, Mrs. Book.
03:58What would we do without you?
04:04Joe, I never thought I'd leave England.
04:08Never mind all this.
04:12Don't mention it.
04:13Look, we're not on holiday, my boy, remember?
04:16No.
04:16No, of course not.
04:18Ready?
04:19Again.
04:19We need to get our story straight, or they won't give us the time of day.
04:25Renowned antiquarian bookseller, Sebastian Melmoth...
04:28Hello.
04:29...is heading to Germany with his blindingly handsome, trusted assistant, Mr. Jack Blunt.
04:35Here, how comes I don't get a secret identity?
04:37Well, you don't need one, do you?
04:39Luther von Boden knows my name.
04:41He doesn't know yours.
04:43Nor that you happen to be his grandson.
04:45Go on.
04:45Luther is wanting to sell a second folio of Shakespeare, which is our way to gain his confidence.
04:51But he mustn't know who you are.
04:53Exactly.
04:53And we'll blend in.
04:55Wear a funny hat.
04:56Hide behind the arras, that's obviously...
04:58...giving us time to find out...
04:59Discreetly.
05:01Discreetly.
05:01...what happened to my father on December 5th, 1936.
05:05We need to speak to a Dr. Kaufman.
05:11Because he was the one...
05:14...who returned your letters to Felix.
05:17He was also the one that told you that my father had died in the sanatorium...
05:21...on a brain tumour.
05:22Yes.
05:23On the same day that Felix was photographed at the Christmas party.
05:28Someone is lying.
05:29Maybe a lot of people are lying.
05:32And in addition?
05:34In addition, the Duchess Alberta.
05:35Our noblesse obligation.
05:37The Shakespeare folio incriminates her.
05:40Opens up all sorts of questions as to what else she might have liberated from the royal vaults.
05:47But we take it slowly and carefully.
05:49When and if Luther trusts us, only then do we reveal who you really are.
05:55Understood?
05:56Understood.
05:57And what about this place itself?
05:59What's it called again?
06:01World?
06:01Ville.
06:03Did my old man ever say much about that?
06:05Oh, yes.
06:07And the way Felix described it...
06:10...it's like something out of a fairy tale.
06:29Well, he weren't wrong.
06:31Huh.
06:37What is it?
06:38Oh, nothing.
06:39Just expecting us to be met in the bottom of the hill, that's all.
06:43Oh, well.
07:31What the hell was going on?
07:33More than a whiff of Nuremberg.
07:35And I suppose Christmas is Christmas.
07:38Even if there has been a war on it.
07:48Oh, what the hell doesn't mean will I bother you to leave?
07:55No.
08:02Oh.
08:05Oh.
08:07Oh.
08:08Oh.
08:08Oh, my God.
09:04Oh, my God.
09:09Oh, my God.
09:23Mammoth, Goodweiler.
09:24Ah.
09:25I'm sorry for my lateness.
09:27Don't give it another thought.
09:28Oh.
09:39Please.
09:41Thank you, sir.
09:50Nervous?
09:52No.
09:54Me too.
10:35Just like the old times, huh?
10:38Lord.
10:40How depressing.
10:43Maybe Hitler had the right idea.
10:46I wouldn't say that too loud if I was you.
10:49I mean, blowing his brains out.
10:51That's all we're fit for now.
10:53Oh, I mean, look at us.
10:56What a sad spectacle.
10:58What do you think, Guy?
11:00What say we've put down the whole pack of us?
11:03Humanely, of course.
11:05Just say the word, honey.
11:06I promise it won't hurt.
11:09Much.
11:10You say the sweetest things.
11:12Nonsense.
11:13You are talking nonsense, my dear Albert.
11:16It is the feast of Saint Nicholas, and we celebrate just as we used to.
11:22We are still here.
11:24We have survived.
11:28Most of us.
11:30And I have gathered those dearers to me back to my tender bosom.
11:38But where is Irma?
11:40And the Herr Doktor?
11:42Yes?
11:43Where is Kaufmann?
11:51Tell me again.
11:53Dr. Kaufmann.
11:58And you had no one seen?
12:00The streets were full of people. Everyone could have been there.
12:06And why were you here?
12:08My recipe, so that I can sleep better.
12:15Schilling, where is the boss?
12:17On the way.
12:58I'm sorry for not meeting you in the past.
13:00And I'm a very busy man, Luther von Broder.
13:05It's Bastion Melmoth.
13:07Pleasure.
13:08My assistant, Mr. Blunt.
13:16I trust our business can be swiftly concluded, Helen Melmoth.
13:20Wouldn't that be nice?
13:22Go on.
13:26Gently does it, Jack, remember?
13:28Gently.
13:28Yeah.
13:30Yeah, you don't have to worry about me.
13:48Exquisite.
13:50Exquisite.
13:52Second folio.
13:55In dark cough.
13:56Printed 1632.
13:58Exceptionally rare.
14:00And yet you want to sell.
14:02The war, I suppose.
14:04This place can't exactly be cheap to maintain.
14:07It's true.
14:09Many aristocratic families have lost much.
14:13Fortunately, the von Broders are not among them.
14:17You will find me a wily old negotiator, Helen Melmoth.
14:23Though I am the last of my line.
14:26Well, this all seems very promising.
14:29But you are asking a great deal of money.
14:31Might I have some time to-
14:32Of course, of course.
14:34You are my honored guests.
14:37My honored British guests.
14:40After all, we are all friends now.
14:47You must be tired, please.
14:49Let us discuss this matter further in the morning.
14:58You have a favorite?
15:01Favorite, sir?
15:02Of the plays?
15:03Of Shakespeare's plays?
15:06As held Melmoth's assistant, you must surely be very familiar.
15:09Oh, Jack has too many to mention, don't you Jack?
15:13Yeah.
15:14I mean all the obvious ones.
15:16The Dane, the Fane, the Moor.
15:19Though love's labor's loss should never be performed again.
15:22And as for Dogberry and Much Ado-
15:23Merchant of Venice.
15:26Who?
15:27The quality of mercy is not strained.
15:30It droppeth like gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath.
15:39You have a favorite Shakespeare?
15:40Herr von Bode.
15:43Titus and Trotelix.
15:47Well, as you say, it's been a very long day.
15:49You're not the last in line.
15:52What?
15:53The von Bodes.
15:54You're not the last one.
15:57There's me.
15:58What?
15:59I'm your grandson.
16:00Jack!
16:05What did you say?
16:07I'm your grandson.
16:08I'm Felix's son.
16:10I...
16:11I do not understand.
16:13It's true.
16:13Herr von Bode.
16:19Who are you?
16:21Um...
16:21I'm Jack Blunt.
16:23Um...
16:24I'm...
16:24I was...
16:25I was in an orphanage.
16:26That's my first memory.
16:28And...
16:28I had this photograph of my father.
16:30It was this one.
16:31Uh...
16:32I had this.
16:33And a name.
16:34And...
16:35And that was it.
16:40This is incredible.
16:42Look, look, look.
16:43It's all here.
16:44All the documents.
16:45We were going to take you through it.
16:47In the fullness of time.
16:49Look, it's the truth.
16:52It's all there.
16:53I'm telling the truth, honestly.
16:54I'm...
16:54I'm your grandson.
16:55I'm Felix's son.
17:01And who then, sir, are you?
17:03Just a bookseller.
17:04As I say.
17:06I came across your name, Herr von Bode, and that you were in the market to sell a Shakespeare folio.
17:11It seemed too good a chance for Jack here to miss.
17:14We had no intention to deceive, truly.
17:16Jack is only here to find some answers.
17:22You will understand that this has come as something of a shock.
17:26Yeah, no, of course.
17:40There is a resemblance.
17:42Certainly a resemblance.
17:46I will study these.
17:48My people will study this in great detail.
17:52If this is true.
17:53It is.
17:59I swear.
18:05I'm so sorry, Mr Buck.
18:08It was just when...
18:09When he said that he was the last one, I...
18:13I couldn't keep it in.
18:16He's my grandfather.
18:19A blood relative.
18:20He's the only one that I've ever...
18:22That's not the end of the world.
18:24We were going to tell him eventually.
18:28The quality of mercy is not strained.
18:30You're full of surprises.
18:33Yeah, I've been boning up, ain't I?
18:37So, what do you make of the old family pile?
18:41Still.
18:41It's cozy, innit?
18:44Still.
18:46As they want to say on the yellow brick road.
18:50There's no place like home.
18:51I can't.
19:07Good evening.
19:09Oh, this is beautiful.
19:12You're early.
19:14Do you need to wait?
19:15No, no, no.
19:16It's, well, I just have to be careful.
19:20That's all, Reggie.
19:21Very respectable married woman.
19:22Well, that's exactly what I am.
19:24Or what I have to appear to be.
19:27I have such a passion for seducing respectable married women.
19:30Is that all this is?
19:32A seduction?
19:35You know me better than that by now, Trotty.
19:38And so, it's a whole week to ourselves.
19:44Nora's looking after the bookshop that should occupy her completely,
19:47which only leaves Dog.
19:50And he's very discreet.
20:07Oh, come on.
20:10You sniffed every blooming thing we've asked.
20:32Bloody hell.
20:34Bloody hell.
20:43Jesus, Luther.
20:44You're just going to take this kid at face value?
20:45Of course not.
20:46I'm not a complete fool guy.
20:49But if he is who he says he is,
20:51my lawyers will look over the papers.
20:53We will see.
20:54Oh, this is delicious.
20:56It's nuts.
20:56It's nuts.
20:57Luther, you can't just accept...
20:58Ten years ago, I lost my only son.
21:01And now?
21:02Your grandson has come to take his place.
21:05He obviously just wants money.
21:07No.
21:08Listen, I don't want anything like that.
21:09I just want answers.
21:11About my father.
21:13See who that is.
21:15So?
21:17My son was not well.
21:20He behaved so strangely that we had to put him away for.
21:25Sanatoria.
21:26And then?
21:28And there he died.
21:30The tumor on the brain.
21:33That was what was causing it.
21:35Causing it all.
21:38God rest his soul.
21:48What's your role in all of this, Mr. Melmoth?
21:53Chaperone to the little bastard?
21:56Just an interested party.
21:58I'm a bookseller.
21:59Actually, a specialist.
22:00Oh.
22:01I'm a collector, too.
22:03So I gather, your grace.
22:07I'm aware that circumstances have changed.
22:10But the Shakespeare folio.
22:14Oh, it's still for sale.
22:15Yes, very much so.
22:17Excellent.
22:19And your library?
22:22Full of treasures.
22:25Very tempting.
22:26May I?
22:27If you wish.
22:29It's rather thrillingly like Anastasia, all this, isn't it?
22:34Who?
22:34Oh, Romanov princess.
22:36She was meant to have escaped the Bolsheviks firing squad in 1918.
22:40Tipped up in Berlin in the 20s.
22:42Of course, almost certainly a horrible imposter.
22:45I was related to her.
22:47I mean, the real Anastasia.
22:50Distantly.
22:51Yes, my husband is very keen on reminding me just how distant a relation to the king I am.
22:57Aren't you, darling?
22:59Mm-hmm.
23:00But it'll be nice to have some more erudite company this weekend, as I'm not sure that half
23:05of them here can actually read.
23:16Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
23:18Good evening, my ladies and gentlemen.
23:19My name is Inspector Ernest Bliss.
23:22My name is Inspector Ernest Bliss.
23:23And I'm afraid there's been a murder.
23:43I don't expect we'll be seeing you for a while, yet.
23:52Can't get away from trouble, can you, Inspector?
23:55Well, this was hardly part of the plan.
23:58Good to see you anyway.
24:00Yeah.
24:01I knew.
24:02And everything's worked out.
24:05This is rather complicated, not as though, hasn't it?
24:08A little.
24:09Plus, the dead man was the one who sent me official confirmation
24:13that Felix was dead.
24:16What do you think?
24:17Think there's a connection?
24:19Not sure yet.
24:19It was horrible. Horrible.
24:22His face.
24:24Death, you must get some rest.
24:28Let's get you to bed.
24:29Help yourself to anything you find in my cabinet, darling.
24:32I have everything.
24:34Hey, keep off the hard stuff.
24:35She hasn't developed your tolerance, honey.
24:38No, no.
24:39I have my own.
24:46Borrowed Kaufman, eh?
24:49Indeed.
24:50Although I don't suppose you'll be shedding many tears, will you?
24:55What is that supposed to mean?
25:02So what now?
25:03I want you to stay here, Jack.
25:05Find out everything you can about the night that Felix died discreetly this time.
25:11Yeah.
25:12Don't worry.
25:16Scene of the crime?
25:19Scene of the crime.
25:23No, no.
25:34It's too late.
25:34You can't have any powers.
25:34Oh, we have.
25:34You're on the phone.
25:35I can't see.
25:35I can't see.
25:35Get us on the same one.
25:35And the other one.
25:40And the other one.
25:41You're on that.
25:41You're on it.
25:43I can't see you.
25:43What's going on?
25:45Money on the other one.
25:48He's running out of the middle.

27:02soothe to new one on me
27:15well what is it well it's just a notion
27:32Go on.
27:34Have you ever heard of Knecht Ruprecht?
27:37Of course.
27:39Perhaps it is not well known in the end.
27:40No?
27:41It's all different here. Very different.
27:45Whoa, whoa, whoa.
27:46Knecht Ruprecht is a legendary creature.
27:49There's even a tune by Schumann.
27:51Ruprecht accompanies Saint Nicholas on his rounds
27:54and doles out things to naughty children,
27:58including lumps of coal.
28:00Oh, I see you think someone's trying to make a point,
28:02but, uh, Catherine was being punished.
28:05It is possible.
28:07Knecht Ruprecht hits wicked children with a bag of ashes,
28:10drowns them or stuffs them in a sack
28:12and carries them to hell.
28:14Oh, lovely. Very Christmas.
28:32Yes, I do.
28:35I must.
28:36I must.
28:38I must.
28:40This is my daughter.
28:42Yes.
28:50No.
28:53No.
28:54Get away from you.
28:56Kill them.
28:57No.
28:58No.
28:58Get away from me.
28:59Get away from me.
29:01Get away from me.
29:02Get away from me.
29:02No.
29:04No.
29:11No!
29:11They, they, they are, no, they,
29:20That's the official story, of what Luther told you.
29:26After all the day guests had left, he admitted that Felix was here the night of the party.
29:31He said he was behaving strange, erratic, you know, because of the tumour.
29:37What did the others say?
29:39That Felix seemed perfectly fine when they talked to him.
29:44And that he did go back to the Santorum, and died there.
29:51A disparity, then, between Luther's account and that of the other guests.
29:56If only we could have spoken to Kaufmann.
29:58Yeah, but he's dead.
30:00Ah.
30:04White and snowy lies the land.
30:07Here comes St. Nicholas, staff in hand.
30:10Who's that with him?
30:12Faced like a fright.
30:14Connect Ruprecht.
30:16Ruprecht.
30:16Tuck up tight.
30:19What's that?
30:21Local ditty.
30:23About Santa's not-so-little helper.
30:26Connect Ruprecht comes to poke and peer at all the little children who've been bad this year.
30:31Too late now to go to church with coal, then sack, then switch of birch.
30:39Ruprecht will be the one to tell who goes to heaven and who to hell.
30:47Question is, who would want to kill Kaufmann?
30:51They were all pretty tight-lipped.
30:55There was one thing that I did pick up on.
30:58Yes?
30:58Dr. Kaufmann and the big fella, Duttweiler.
31:01They didn't get on a few guys way back.
31:04Ah.
31:05Now that's very revealing.
31:08Is it?
31:08I found a photograph in Kaufmann's office.
31:11He and Duttweiler were in the same regiment during the Great War.
31:15Duttweiler of a higher rank, judging by his uniform.
31:20Kaufmann a mere private.
31:24I see.
31:26I mean, that can't have been easy.
31:28Going back to bowing and scraping to a bloke that you used to give orders to.
31:33Festering resentment.
31:35My favourite motive.
31:37So Duttweiler's got to be in the frame for it.
31:39He was in the village.
31:41He was late picking us up.
31:43He could have done in, Dr. Kaufmann.
31:48If so...
31:51What?
31:53Well, don't you see?
31:57The butler did it.
32:24What is it?
32:25What's happening?
32:47Okay.
32:50Okay.
32:58Jesus.
33:01Coal in sack.
33:04So much for the butler.
33:35Dog.
33:36Dog.
33:53Nora.
33:59Have you been here all night?
34:02What time is it?
34:04It's 8.30. Your uncle will be frantic.
34:07He won't mind. He knows I'm here all day.
34:10Yes, but not all night. It doesn't even open on a Sunday.
34:14Yes, I know that.
34:19Is everything all right, Nora?
34:24Nora.
34:26Oh, damn.
34:47I thought you weren't expecting me to sleep here.
34:51Hmm?
34:52You've got two cups out.
34:55You must be psychic, Mrs. B.
35:00Horse of habit, I suppose.
35:03For me and Book.
35:05Right.
35:05Yeah.
35:08Of course.
35:12Um...
35:13Two sugars in mine.
35:16If you can spare that from your ration.
35:23Hmm?
35:31Barbiturate overdose.
35:33Injected in the neck.
35:34And something else.
35:36Cologne.
35:37Lots of it.
35:38Which he hadn't been wearing earlier in the evening.
35:41Must have taken a bit of strength to get a big bugger like him into the sack and hoisted up
35:46into the eaves.
35:47Maybe.
35:50Well, anyway, I've asked everyone staying in a castle to stay put.
35:54I mean, it's got to be one of them, hasn't it?
35:57Right.
35:58Plan of action.
36:00Well, it can't exactly be business as usual, can it?
36:03As far as they're all concerned.
36:04You're just a bookseller, so you'll be discreet.
36:09Keep out of the way.
36:10Yes, absolutely.
36:12You won't know I'm here.
36:16Do you believe me?
36:18Do you believe I am who I say I am?
36:20Luther's hardly sentimental.
36:23If you are a fraud, he will discover it.
36:26And then...
36:28I would not like to be in your shoes.
36:32No.
36:33I asked everyone last night...
36:35What happened to Felix all those years ago at the party?
36:40I mean, Luther said he collapsed, but...
36:43Luther is a liar.
36:45The story they told about Felix's end, it is not...
36:50It cannot be true.
36:53Will you tell me what really happened?
36:55If I think I can trust you?
36:58Perhaps.
36:59We just...
37:02I just want to know the truth.
37:04The truth.
37:06The truth is a stranger to these walls.
37:10You said you grew up here.
37:13So are you...
37:16Are we...
37:18Like...
37:18Cousins, or...?
37:19I am not a Vombarda.
37:22Luther took me in after...
37:25After my father died.
37:29And were you...
37:30Close?
37:32You and Felix?
37:34I adored him.
37:37Oh, not in that way.
37:39He was like an older brother to me.
37:42We confided in each other.
37:44We told each other everything.
37:46And so...
37:47I know who it was he truly loved.
37:56I've read everyone's statements.
37:57Their movements on the day Calvin was killed him.
38:00And last night...
38:01Well, we're each other's alibis, Inspector.
38:05I'm sorry if that doesn't help.
38:07You were in Bermuda, weren't you?
38:09For the duration of the war?
38:11Sorry, don't mind me.
38:12We were.
38:13Keeping the British end up.
38:15We could hardly pop over here to Germany, could we?
38:18I wouldn't have done at all.
38:19But now that's all over.
38:21Back to the good old days?
38:23Oh, hardly.
38:25This bloody country's a wreck.
38:27But Luther asked, and so...
38:29Here we are again.
38:31Luther's always been a very generous host.
38:34Dr. Kaufman.
38:35An old friend?
38:36We had been through much together.
38:38And Dr. Vyla?
38:39His family have been servants here for generations.
38:43The Vombode blood is in these stones.
38:47We are aristocrats.
38:49An unbroken chain of authority, of dignity, of power.
38:54Not looking too powerful now, though, are you?
38:56Flogging the family silver?
38:58Or the Shakespeare folio just to survive?
39:01Sorry, not here. Ignore me.
39:04Fascinating stuff.
39:06Not sure Irma was very keen on either of them, actually.
39:10Kaufman and Dottweiler, I mean.
39:12She rather thought they looked down on her.
39:14Looked down on her?
39:16Luther took her in after her father's suicide.
39:19You made her his ward.
39:21She grew up in the castle.
39:22Everyone knew that she was reliant on Luther's charity.
39:25I must father kill himself.
39:28Sorry, we are yet.
39:29It's no secret that my father lost everything in the crash.
39:32The stock market.
39:33I had nothing.
39:35Luther took me in.
39:37Eventually I got away to Berlin, but then the war...
39:40And what about your relationship with the dead men?
39:42Purely professional.
39:43Dr. Kaufman provided me with the drugs I take.
39:46For sleeping, yes?
39:47Yes.
39:48Secobarbital, I believe, according to the doctor's notes.
39:52A barbiturate.
39:53It's the Japanese woman you really should be grilling there.
39:56Oh?
39:57Oh, yes.
39:58Because of what Kaufman did to Mr. Yamachi.
40:01What became of your husband? The war, I suppose?
40:04No. Not the war.
40:07He died of peritonitis.
40:08In Japan?
40:10No.
40:11Here.
40:12Here?
40:13His symptoms were ignored.
40:14By the time he realized, it was too late.
40:17And these symptoms were ignored by Dr. Kaufman?
40:22Well, Luther's rattled. You see his face.
40:24Well, his butler and his friend the doctor have both just been killed by a grotesque and rather baroque means.
40:31But you describe yourself as Luther's friend in race.
40:34Luther doesn't have friends.
40:37Just people who can be useful to him for a while.
40:40I mean, we're more than acquaintances, of course.
40:43I've helped him buy and sell a few things.
40:46Keep the coffers full.
40:47You've become something of a fixture here, I understand, since the end of the war.
40:51Luther has been very kind.
40:53You must have got to know the servants rather well.
40:56Poor Duttweiler.
40:58It is shocking.
40:59Was Duttweiler by any chance an habitual wearer of heavy scent?
41:03Scent?
41:04Eau de Cologne de Cork.
41:05Not to my knowledge.
41:07You say you were in the castle the whole time on the day Kaufman was killed.
41:10What about last night?
41:12I have no arabi.
41:14I sleep alone, of course.
41:16Ah, yes.
41:17So many have been widowed.
41:19I mean, it must be very lonely for you.
41:21One dance to be stoical.
41:24Herr von Bode has provided you with much comfort, I'm sure.
41:28How well did you both know the deceased men?
41:30Well, we met them both, obviously, over the years.
41:34Gastly.
41:34Both of them.
41:35Kaufman, so quiet.
41:37Rather gave one the creeps.
41:39Duttweiler.
41:41Frankenstein, I used to call you.
41:44Great lumbering brute.
41:46Zmonster.
41:47Zmonster.
41:47Sorry?
41:49Frankenstein's monster.
41:50He was the great lumbering brute.
41:52Zmonster.
41:53Not Frankenstein.
41:55Sorry.
41:55Ignore me.
41:56So not a fan of either, then?
41:58No, but finding people tedious at parties is a tenuous motive for murder.
42:03Don't you think, Inspector?
42:05Half of their graveyard would be in the dock.
42:08I've been thinking.
42:09Mr. Melmoth.
42:11Melmoth.
42:12Melmoth.
42:12It's a book, isn't it?
42:13Melmoth the Wanderer.
42:15A gothic classic.
42:17Like me.
42:19Funny.
42:21Wasn't that the name that Oscar Wilde used in exile?
42:27Sebastian Melmoth?
42:29Was it really?
42:30Can you think of a stronger motive why anyone would want to kill these men?
42:34Well, gotta be a nut, I guess.
42:37Or...
42:37Or...
42:38Well, we've all heard the rumors about this nasty Santa Claus thing.
42:43What is it?
42:45Nicky-nacky...
42:46Knecht repressed.
42:47Yes.
42:49That's the trap.
42:50Whose theory is this?
42:52Mine, I'm afraid.
42:53Oh, indeed.
42:53And so the deaths of respectable German citizens are now to be investigated by English amateurs...
43:00...and Jews.
43:04Mr. Bulk...
43:05Mr. Melmoth.
43:06Mr. Melmoth.
43:07His acquaintance from London is very welcome to help in any way he can.
43:11As if it were not bad enough that they were slaughtered.
43:14But this humiliation...
43:16Punished like naughty children!
43:19It is obscene!
43:20Find out who did this, and do so quickly.
43:25I'll do my best.
43:28But you might do well to remember Mr. Von Bode...
43:32...who won the bloody war.
43:44Well, you have quite a nerve.
43:46I beg your pardon?
43:48Coming here...
43:49...into my home...
43:51...Mr. Bulk!
44:03I wrote to Felix, waited for a reply, waited and waited.
44:07Felix never saw your damned letters!
44:09He was in the sanatorium by then.
44:11With this so-called tumor?
44:13Describe it how you will.
44:14It was a kind of sickness.
44:16A disease.
44:17Disease?
44:18He was afflicted with a perversion that made me ashamed to call in my own blood.
44:23Oh, of course.
44:25My only heir.
44:27The heir to the Von Bode line.
44:31Decadent.
44:32Corrupted.
44:34Corrupted by you.
44:41So you locked him away?
44:45Kaufmann thought he might respond to treatment.
44:48But I should simply have put Felix down.
44:52Like a sick animal.
44:54Is that what you did?
44:56Because there was no tumor, was there, Luther?
44:59No matter what lie you've been telling yourself.
45:01You turn up here with that boy.
45:04Under false pretenses.
45:06Using a false name.
45:08And then he claims to be my own flesh and blood.
45:12Quite the coincidence.
45:15Or something more.
45:17A conspiracy.
45:19Yeah.
45:20A conspiracy that ends with the deaths of Kaufmann and Tupferl.
45:24What really happened that night, Luther?
45:29What the hell did you do to Felix?
45:32You came here to buy the second folio.
45:35I regret to inform you that it is no longer for Saiyan.
45:40I believe our business here is concluded.
45:57Well...
45:58We'll be that up, ain't we?
46:10Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
46:12No?
46:13No, no, no.
46:14I don't drink anymore.
46:16You don't drink anymore?
46:20I don't drink any less.
46:22Oh, my goodness.
46:24You all right?
46:25It got rather heated, I'm afraid.
46:27I thought he was going to strike me.
46:29And how's Jack taking it all?
46:31Must be... a little... overwhelming.
46:35He's quite the stoic, in fact.
46:37Impressive boy.
46:39His father's boy.
46:41You will be careful, won't you?
46:44I'm always careful, Trotty.
46:47Not always.
46:49Everything all right back there?
46:51Yes, yes, of course.
46:54Bedroom ceiling?
46:56Good as new.
46:57Trotty!
47:03You be careful too, my love.
47:06I'd better go.
47:07Walls have ears in this place.
47:09I'll speak to you when I can.
47:11Bye, Pop.
47:11Bye.
47:25There you go.
47:26I think you deserve this.
47:27Thanks.
47:29I know how tough this must all be for you boys, though.
47:34I'm fine.
47:36We'll be fine.
47:38Time to regroup.
47:39What are we looking at?
47:40Well, motives are plenty.
47:43Madame Yamauchi blames Dr. Kaufman for the death of her husband.
47:46And we know there was bad blood between Kaufman and Dottweiler.
47:50And then he got topped himself.
47:52Killed by an overdose of the same barbiturates that Irma Kweiser uses to get to sleep.
47:58And who can say what a Royal Highness and the Yank might be hiding?
48:03Apart from what we already know.
48:06Then there's this.
48:07Well, what is it?
48:10Finally found something in the doctor's accounts.
48:13Luther was paying for two patients at the sanatorium.
48:16Two?
48:18Jack's father and another one.
48:19An earlier patient whose residency began in 1912 and which ended just two months ago.
48:26Any idea who?
48:27No name-giver.
48:28Luther is the key to all this.
48:33The spider at the centre of the web.
48:35I can feel it in my bones.
48:38We've got to get him to talk.
48:41Well, that would be a job for you two.
48:43We've been chucked out on our ears.
48:47Well, gentlemen.
48:49Here's to a new and better future.
48:53Prost.
48:53Prost.
49:01White and snowy lies the land.
49:04Here comes St. Nicholas, staff in hand.
49:09Who's that with him?
49:11Faced like a fright?
49:14Connect Ruprecht.
49:15Ruprecht.
49:17Tuck up tight.
49:20Connect Ruprecht comes to poke and peer.
49:25And all the little children who've been bad this year.
49:31Too late now to go to church.
49:34With coal, then sack, then switch of birch.
49:38Ruprecht will be the one to tell who goes to heaven and who to hell.
49:46isoned.
50:08No.
50:11No!
50:12No!
50:12No, no, no.
50:14No!
50:15No!
50:17Lysa?
50:20Lysa, why did you not come to bed?
50:26Lysa?
50:45LIZAS
50:46Detainyou
50:46The End
