It knows only death,

When we stopped counting,
725
01:09:15,810 --> 01:09:19,790

more people to their death:

more effectively than we think.

conditions more clearly.

l'm glad you're here.

Pretty scientific, eh?

01:21:41,100 --> 01:21:42,680

That's great, isn't it?
917
01:21:52,310 --> 01:21:54,720
l only gave him a B.
918
01:21:54,770 --> 01:21:58,140
They shouldn't think getting
a doctorate with me is easy.
919
01:21:58,150 --> 01:22:00,479
But this is first-class.
920
01:22:00,480 --> 01:22:05,280
Did you know that there are
just five types of artists?
921
01:22:05,560 --> 01:22:08,849
Your guy, Dreyman,
is a Type 4.
922
01:22:08,850 --> 01:22:11,599
A "hysterical
anthropocentrist."
923
01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:14,979
Can't bear being alone, always
talking, needing friends.
924
01:22:14,980 --> 01:22:17,229
That type should never
be brought to trial.
925
01:22:17,230 --> 01:22:18,950
They thrive on that.
926
01:22:19,770 --> 01:22:24,309
Temporary detention is the
best way to deal with them.
927
01:22:24,310 --> 01:22:27,559
Complete isolation
and no set release date.
928
01:22:27,560 --> 01:22:31,309
No human contact the whole time,
not even with the guards.
929
01:22:31,310 --> 01:22:35,979
Good treatment, no harassment,
no abuse, no scandals,
930
01:22:35,980 --> 01:22:39,030
nothing they could
write about later.
931
01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:42,570
After 10 months,
we release.
932
01:22:43,060 --> 01:22:46,979
Suddenly, that guy won't
cause us any more trouble.
933
01:22:46,980 --> 01:22:49,189
Know what the best part is?
934
01:22:49,190 --> 01:22:52,979
Most Type 4s we've
processed in this way
935
01:22:52,980 --> 01:22:54,979
never write anything again.
936
01:22:54,980 --> 01:22:58,599
Or paint anything,
or whatever artists do...
937
01:22:58,600 --> 01:23:02,440
And that without any use of force.
Just like that.
938
01:23:02,770 --> 01:23:04,190
Kind of
939
01:23:05,270 --> 01:23:06,740
like a present.
940
01:23:07,900 --> 01:23:09,660
What brings you here?
941
01:23:09,730 --> 01:23:11,519
Developments with Dreyman?
942
01:23:11,520 --> 01:23:13,290
That's why l'm here.
943
01:23:15,650 --> 01:23:17,810
l think the time has come...
944
01:23:18,650 --> 01:23:19,970
For what?
945
01:23:20,730 --> 01:23:23,730
For us to slim down
the operation.
946
01:23:24,650 --> 01:23:27,979
l don't want to run
day and night shifts
947
01:23:27,980 --> 01:23:29,849
for such an uncertain case.
948
01:23:29,850 --> 01:23:31,430
Uncertain, huh?
949
01:23:32,650 --> 01:23:36,309
You don't think we'll find
anything for the Minister?
950
01:23:36,310 --> 01:23:38,970
Maybe if we're
more flexible.
951
01:23:39,560 --> 01:23:43,000
lf we watch "Lazlo" outside
his own four walls.
952
01:23:46,980 --> 01:23:49,340
Shall l give the case to Udo?
953
01:23:49,560 --> 01:23:52,020
l'd like to
continue it myself.
954
01:23:53,310 --> 01:23:54,590
Why?
955
01:23:55,100 --> 01:23:57,120
lt could produce results.
956
01:23:58,350 --> 01:24:00,660
l just need to
plan more flexibly.
957
01:24:01,730 --> 01:24:05,370
When l come and go,
days and nights...
958
01:24:06,810 --> 01:24:09,170
Maybe he's up to
something outside.
959
01:24:13,810 --> 01:24:16,370
Something doesn't
feel right here.
960
01:24:19,480 --> 01:24:21,440
There's something
you're hiding.
961
01:24:29,650 --> 01:24:32,400
All right, l'll take
Udo off the case.
962
01:24:33,350 --> 01:24:36,250
l can use him for
this church case.
963
01:24:36,770 --> 01:24:38,849
Give me a request in writing.
964
01:24:38,850 --> 01:24:42,740
Write as a reason,
"Lack of suspicious acts."

Andrea, where's
the graphologist?

Thus l conclude that it is
a domestic typewriter,
1011
01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:11,400
produced for export, most likely
a "Kolibri" travel model,
1012
01:30:11,730 --> 01:30:16,530
made by the VEB Groma. lf the ink
were black, l could be more precise.

1014

There are none registered
in the GDR.

What does Hauser use?

Paul Hauser uses a "Valentino"
typewriter, made by Olivetti.

a more horizontal...

Yes, yes! And Wallner?
1019
01:30:36,020 --> 01:30:38,870
He writes on an

1021
01:30:41,600 --> 01:30:44,439
He writes his first
drafts by hand,

then types them up on
a Wanderer "Torpedo."
1023
01:30:47,520 --> 01:30:49,730
He's never used
anything else.
1024

How big is this
Kolibri typewriter?
1025
01:30:56,020 --> 01:30:59,229

This doorsill doesn't
