THE GLASS CELL

Have you signed the supporting documents? Mr. Braun? Yes or no?

Yes I signed them but I haven't read them all.

Even a child knows that you sign nothing that you haven't read.

It was not the task of my client to check order confirmations and invoices.

I'm an architect, not a builder.

As a builder, my client would never have made a career.

His thoughtlessness in dealing with documents and supporting documents

would have ruined him early.

Knowing the psyche of their clients is good,

but this is not a matter of negligence but deliberate fraud.

An architect is not required to know the exact prices for all materials.

Mr. Lasky was the builder.

Why do they not ask Mr. Lasky where the missing money went?

The prices on the receipt could have been raised

by Mr. Lasky, after I had signed it.

High Court, the receipts are on file.

Do I have to put up with such insolence?

Mr. Braun, did you know that the material was inferior?

Yes, I even noted it on several occasions,

but Mr. Lasky said that everything was all right.

He has claimed that the Building Authority had just asked for this material.

You know the affidavit of the city engineer that demands and pays for only the best.

You, Mr. Braun, as an architect, should have fulfilled your obligations carefully.

The stairs wouldn't have collapsed and nobody would have died.

A dead child and fourteen injured just because you used inferior material.

For no other reason than to make personal profit.

Where is the money? Where are the DM 350,000?

Lasky has it.

Stop your accusations.

If this happens on a construction site,

it can happen only with the knowledge of the architect.

Final question, where is the money?

We had a joint account my husband and me.

We never had secrets from each other.

All I can say again and again is that my husband is innocent.

Lisa.

Hi David.

Howdy Tommie.

For your father; give him my regards.

Do you want to come in?

I can't. Got a date at court Bye for now.

Uncle David never has time.

You shouldn't say "Uncle David," he's not your uncle.

Then I'll say only David.

It would be better if you wouldn't talk about him for awhile.

Why not?

Because your father might be hurt

Don't forget that your father was away for nearly five years.

He missed you very much and is now looking forward to being with you.

You must be very nice to him.

Sorry, no parking spot.

Voila, it's our house.

You want to take off your coat?

I sold the furniture from old house. It wouldn't fit in here.

Not this, of course.

We have no garden, but it's only five minutes to work.

I haven't cleaned up your desk.

Look, I painted this yesterday.

You need to see the rest of the apartment.

Soon, you'll have to play something for me.

He's going to appear in public for the first time.

On the 23rd, the Conservatory alumni will give a Christmas concert.

Tommie will be a soloist that evening.

You don't talk at all.

Do you like it?

May I take a bath before dinner?

Do anything you want.

I'm home again.

G. Flaubert “A Sentimental Education“

For Lisa from David

Aren't you hungry?

I'm not used to such a feast.

I wanted to do something special for tonight. Excuse me.

No, this tasted excellent, indeed!

Do you know that?

Tchaikovsky, Italian Capriccio Have you never heard it?

Yes.

I would like to buy the disk tomorrow, will you come?

Gladly.

You also?

I'm sorry, I can't. Normally, I wouldn't be allowed to take time today.

Everyone wants to buy books at the shop just before Christmas...

I can't leave the girls alone.

You have to feed the family now.

You'll find work fast, I think.

I don't know, a jailbird, like me.

David still tries to find evidence of your innocence.

I have been waiting five years.

Nevertheless, you should be grateful to him.

Yes, I know he's the best lawyer I could wish for.

But sometimes I wondered what he does.

Especially at night when at 10 o'clock, the light is turned off...

and then you lie there and can't sleep...

I've often thought you were resigned to my fate.

But Phillip, David has all these years...

I know, I know, you thought of me and talked about me.

Every Sunday, when you were eating together.

We didn't eat out every Sunday.

When I saw him, I have told you what we talked about.

Even what you ate.

You never wrote me what you ate.

I don't think you would have liked it.

I've often wished to share it with you.

I never wanted you to know how it is there.

How it was there, Phillip?

It is repulsive.

Sometimes, I have not even dared to look at your picture.

Maybe you've always lied to me, to make it easier for me.

Perhaps David invented all new material relief only to comfort me.

But he has always told me that you are innocent.

But he has not proven it.

If it's true, then Uncle David will prove it.

Tommie Braun.

For you!

For me?

Hello?

Who was that?

Lasky.

What did he want?

I don't know, I don't want anything to do with him.

Dear Mr. Braun, we wish to hereby notify you that the position

for which you have applied to us, is not the right one for you.

We would like to ask you not to put this decision in any

relation to your professional qualification.

Yours faithfully

You were not very talkative on the phone, old friend.

I have nothing more to say to you. Leave me alone, Lasky.

Don't act like this.

I do understand that you are troubled by the five years,

but past is past. Don't run so fast.

Your lawyer still wants to persuade you that I should

have had to sit out those five years?

Do you really believe that he is your friend?

I am your friend.

Please stop.

David Reinalt and your wife, I could tell a couple of stories.

Do you think it is okay if a lawyer has

sexual intercourse with the wife of his client who is in jail?

Did you meet Lasky?

No, why?

He knows you're out.

So what?

It wouldn't surprise me if he tries to get in touch with you.

Why should he?

I know? But I wanted to warn you.

I can't imagine that you have a great interest to meet him.

No, certainly not.

Uncle David. They start right away.

We'll be late.

Math test

Geez.

What's up?

Oh, nothing.

Come Mommy, we need to go.

Yes.

Bye bye.

Don't sit there so discouraged.

Even if you are rejected a hundred times you shouldn't give up.

Couldn't you get credentials from your old company?

And where were you in the meantime, Mr. Braun?

Well, in jail.

If you sit all clay morosely and pity yourself,

it's no fun to come home.

Lisa.

If I should find a job, would you continue to work?

I guess so.

Not because we need the money because I do it gladly.

Do you work to get out of my way?

Mommy, come now.

Yes.

Dear Phillip,

I've just brought Timmie to bed and gave him your regards.

He was very happy about the toy box, you've tinkered him.

Like every night, I read to him.

Do you know the tale of the princess,

who must be separated from her loved one,

in order to prove that she loves him?

Timmie didn't yet properly understand.

When I was with you today I couldn't tell you what moves me.

In this horrible visitor cell I always think I cry,

even if it isn't so.

My thoughts are confused,

I'm talking inconsequentially and am longing to comfort you and me,

just to give you a hug and kiss.

Hello.

Howdy.

I'm completely done.

Do you still have a toothache?

Toothache?

Yes. I was in the store today, I wanted to see you.

Oh, so you were in the store and you asked for me.

The dentist was a pretext.

I went to see David.

To see David?

Yes, actually we wanted to surprise you,

but whatever, you know it now.

David wants to give a birthday party for me.

He wants to invite all our friends.

Why don't we celebrate here?

Because David has a lot more space than we have here,

he expects more than fifty people.

I've written the last of the invitations with him.

He's doing it mainly for you.

You should meet people again.

Look, these two colors result in gray, did you know?

No.

What are you giving her?

New ceramic colors, which she'll like.

You see, she's coming.

Only flowers for Mommy.

Give them water.

Yes?

Of course.

But it would have been nice if you had come home first.

Don't worry, the people here know nothing about your past.

Professor Hauff and his wife.

Now we'll have a drink, come on.

- Scotch? - Surely.

What about the job?

Nothing new.

This Goller, of whom I've told you, is still out of town.

I'm sure you can find employment in his building.

Ladies and gentlemen, the birthday girl.

Thank you.

To your health.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

I am completely done, we didn't finish the inventory today.

Did you put Tommie to bed?

Hi Lisa.

Good to see you, Sabine.

You look fantastic, come on.

I have news.

So?

This time it'll work, I've withheld it from you until now

because I've already made too many hopes, but this time I'm sure.

I have new witnesses against Lasky.

Among others, a bank clerk from Giessen

that has recognized Lasky in a photo.

He can swear that Lasky opened an account under a false name,

and transferred company funds to himself.

Does Lasky know that you are investigating him?

He knows very well that he'll have problems soon.

He's trying to make trouble.

I have even been threatened.

You've got nothing to drink, wait I'll get you a glass.

Signore Scusi, you know no one here, too?

I am a business friend of Dr. Reinalt, he brought me.

I ought to be in Rome, but Alitalia is on strike again.

Every strike is a scandal.

A worker should know that his company always pays him the highest pay,

he should have so much confidence...

Confidence... means to be stupid.

Do you feel sick?

You feel incredibly strong?

'Was it really necessary to screw up the party?

It's good that I left.

I think no one missed me.

No wonder, how you acted.

Who acted?

You act just childish.

And you don't act like a married woman.

Don't scream like that.

I didn't care enough for you?

Or what do you mean, a married woman?

You know very well.

Yes I have known.

But since you're back, I know nothing.

I want to know only one thing,

you had an affair with him while I was in jail?

Yes or no?

I have seen it.

Maybe it'll make you calmer when I tell you

that, in fact, something happened between us.

Three weeks.

Or, to be precise, two weeks and four days.

When?

Three years ago.

Immediately after your revision process had been rejected.

I was very unhappy at the time.

But sleeping with David didn't help me.

I didn't want to see him after that.

Can't you try to understand me?

Do you still love him?

Am I not here with you?

Don't dodge the question.

I think...

If I were not here?

I asked you a question.

Well, if you, for example, had died in the cell,

then maybe I would now be with David.

Tommie likes him.

Yes, of course.

Where are you going?

For a walk.

My Beloved,

David has instructed me to tell you that an application

has been rejected on resumption of your trial.

It is easier for me to write this,

than to tell you in the horrible visitors' cell.

Do you think, Phillip, that fate has imposed on us,

this terrible tribulation to put us to a test?

Please forgive me if my words seem mysterious.

I am often in this mood, even tonight.

One can understand all this, our dreadful life as a test,

imposed only on us.

Until now with our love, it's been wonderful.

We will continue until everything is over.

Let's not complain about what is today,

we look forward to what lies ahead.

Keep seated.

I have just phoned again, it's all right.

The employment is yours if you are still interested.

Sure I am, Mr. Goller, thank you.

Please send Dr. Kohn.

My friend, David Reinalt, told me everything.

If he says you're okay, then you're okay for me too.

He told me...

said that you are not to blame for the disaster,

but a certain Lasky, against whom no one could prove anything until now.

Do you smoke?

It was nice of you, that you have procured Phillip work.

Do you want to help your mother with washing dishes?

He follows your every word.

I am glad that you invited me tonight.

- I mean... - Ice?

No, thanks.

I mean...

after you know now,

what happened between me and Lisa at the time.

Let's forget about it?

Yes, let's forget it.

But...

there's something else.

Lasky called me.

He must have told you some lies.

So?

That it should have lasted 4 years...

But that's not true.

Lasky just wants to stir you up against me, he hates me.

He would gladly make a huge scandal and drag my name through the mud,

since he knows that I can be dangerous to him.

I don't believe what Lasky says.

You bear all this with a lot of stoicism.

I love Lisa.

Yes, please?

- Listen. - Hello there.

On time. How are you?

Fine, and you?

Did you eat something, I brought a piece of cake.

Someone miscalled.

Would you like some?

Where is the calculation for the new customer, what was his name?

Oleg Stolz, Moltke Str, 14.

Ah yes.

I prepared the papers.

Thank you.

Goodbye, Mrs. Bade.

If you don't want to talk to me,

then I have to make a little effort to get associated with you.

Get out of my way.

- First, I have to tell you something. - It does not interest me.

Your lawyer friend overuses my nerves,

he wants to drag me to court for ancient things.

Probably he has his reasons.

I will prevent that.

Listen, if you want to tell me something about him and my wife,

I have to disappoint you. I know that the two had a relationship.

Had?

Come and listen.

Hello there. On time How are you?

Fine, and you?

Did you eat something? I brought a piece of cake.

That's kind of you.

Ahh, do my feet hurt, I have to take off my shoes.

Sit down.

Today, I phoned Geller, Phillip has pretty well settled-in.

He's relaxed a lot since he works.

A drink? No thanks, not yet.

What are you trying to prove?

That was four days ago, during your wife's lunch break.

Yes, and?

"A drink? No thanks, not YET"

You understand this correctly?

I think it's best that I call you when they meet again.

You can go and...

And?

I leave that to you.

Your papers.

Goodbye Anne.

Phillip.

Why are you not sleeping?

Timmie, hello, it's me.

Your Mommy just called. She's got a working dinner tonight.

Shall we go somewhere?

Okay, pizza.

I'll pick you up at half past seven.

I wanted to visit David first.

No, I need to discuss something with him.

Hi Phillip.

Hello.

- You want... - Yes?

I have to give him a few books.

Come on, I only have a minute.

No no, I prefer to go. It was nothing important,

I just wanted to stop by again.

Please don't be childish.

See you later.

When will Mommy be back?

It may be very late, sleep now.

Night.

Whenever! put Timmie to bed, he asks when you will get back.

Often it's difficult for me not to cry, but I'm brave, don't worry

You know I can see the garden from my desk.

Today it snowed for the first time.

I wish it were not so quiet here and I could at least hear your voice.

Dr. Reinelt, hello.

This is Dr. David Reineit.

Hello?

Are we going to my place or yours?

I'm going home.

Please don't.

I want a another drink with you.

- Where have you been? - Out drinking.

- You drink a lot lately. - So what?

- How was your meal? - Good.

Working dinner until one clock at night.

Why not?

So you're sticking with this version?

Well, I was with David, at least I was in good company.

At least, I wasn't in bed with anybody.

You're drunk, no wonder you're aggressive.

Why did you make the effort to lie to me?

Because you don't want to understand that I need David,

because I'm used to discussing everything with him.

The whole five years I was alone.

I see that.

And I'm still alone.

You look now exactly like you're sometimes in jail,

someone who is dead inside, unnaturally quiet.

With David it is much simpler, much easier than with you lately.

He can save his social work.

For example, looking for your job.

He only did that to calm his conscience.

Close the door please,

or do you want that Tommie overhears our lovely conversation?

I can't deny that prison has changed me.

Maybe you don't like me anymore. But I trusted you.

You have no idea how I am, you have no idea how a woman feels...

Listen, yes I understand that you think you're happy with him.

I understand what friendship means.

But unfortunately I don't understand that my wife

must go to bed with this good friend.

This is over. must go to bed with this good friend.

This is over.

This is over. Why can't you understand that you are my wife.

Why can't you understand that you are my wife.

Were you always virtuous in jail?

In jail, there are no women.

But men,

I mean, you never thought about?

Yes, I've thought about it.

And?

But I have never had any contact with anyone,

because there was you.

Listen Lisa, you're making things worse.

Whom do you want?

David or me?

I told you, I need him to discuss things.

And to go to bed with him.

That is pan of it?

This really is not the most important.

You don't want to abandon him?

I don't know.

Yes or no.

I can't.

I can no longer talk about it, do you understand?

You can go now, Mrs. Bade.

I'll just finish your letter.

See you tomorrow.

What, what happened? Lasky was here.

I really wanted to have a word with you about Lisa,

but now is probably not the right moment.

You saved my life.

I saved your life?

That was Lasky, I just wanted to change, he rings the door,

he stands there trying to bribe me.

I should cease my investigations against him and be silent.

Naturally, I refused, and tried to throw him out,

then he became brutal.

Here.

Look.

Here, he was choking me.

I can't see anything, it was really that bad?

Ah yes. I fought for my life.

Here...

so he tried to kill me.

Hold it.

For God's sake.

Look at that.

This is one Lisa painted.

You swine.

Hi. You know what happened today?

No, what?

They gave me a raise.

Congratulations.

Want something to drink?

I bought a couple of trout to celebrate.

I saw it in the window and couldn't resist.

Stop.

No.

But. Tommie.

Up.

Tommie Braun.

Moment.

For you Mommy.

Hello?

Your turn.

Yes, I hear.

Yes.

Yes, I have one.

Yes, good.

- Who was it? - What's going on Mommy?

David is dead.

Dead?

Car accident?

Murdered.

Two hours ago.

He had a date for Chinese food with the Friedrichs.

They wanted to pick him up...

but no one answered the door

and the neighbor said she had heard a strange noise around six...

and the landlord opened the door and found David, brutally murdered.

Are you going?

No.

- Whom are you calling? - The police.

Lisa Braun, I just talked to you?

I just wanted to say that I know that David,

I mean Dr. Reineit, he had an enemy, Robert Lasky.

David knew that Robert Lasky was a criminal.

He lives here in Frankfurt under a false name: Oleg Stolz.

David told me.

Of course.

The police are still in David's apartment?

Phillip.

Yes.

You're not even shocked.

Of course, I am shocked, but what should I do?

The whole thing doesn't affect you at all.

Tommie.

Come on, come on.

Lisa?

Open the door.

Inspector Osterreicher, my wife.

Excuse me, Mrs. Braun that I'm here so late...

You often met Dr Reinalt without your husband?

I can imagine what Lasky told you so let's be brief.

Is that true?

Somewhat, but I don't think that the description of

my relationship with Dr. Reineit will help you.

And your husband agreed?

Not exactly.

You loved Dr. Reinalt?

You can call it that.

You also said that of your husband?

Rough?!'-

Tommie.

Do you know who killed Uncle David?

No, not yet, go to your room.

Do you have a certain suspicion?

So far we haven't found any useful fingerprints.

Not even on the marble head, with which he was slain.

Please tell me, Mr. Braun.

What do you think of Lasky?

Not a lot.

Lasky has an alibi?

No, not a real one.

Mr. Braun, you say you left the office at half past five?

Yes.

And then you immediately took the bus?

Yes, but I got out on Zimmerweg, and walked the rest on foot.

And why did you go on foot?

Because the bus was so crowded, I think I've already told you.

And at six, you arrived back home?

Yes, at six.

You were at home, when your husband came?

Yes.

It was six, exactly?

No, it was ten minutes past six,

I can say for sure because immediately after,

I put the trout in the oven and checked the clock.

So six ten.

Please tell me Mr. Braun, will you go away in the next few days?

No.

OK, I must ask you not to leave the city.

Good night. Thanks, I'll find my way.

Thank you, you can go.

You're in luck, gentlemen, luck.

Still, I'm sure it was one of you.

You played better two months ago.

Now concentrate, Timmie.

Hi Timmy, I wanted to pick you up.

"You saved my life."

"I saved your life?"

You know these words?

Now is probably not the right moment...

You saved my life.

I saved your life?

Here, he was choking me.

I can't see anything, it was really that bad?

Ah yes. I fought for my life.

If you continue to have luck we may be able to do business.

Tommie.

How long is this going to last?

What?

You know what.

Hello.

I have just phoned the police.

And they knew something new?

No.

No progress.

I will meet with Lasky.

With Lasky?

Yes, I need to talk to him.

Isn't that dangerous?

Imagine if someone sees you with him.

Don't worry about me.

I need to know what is going on inside his mind, the police want the same.

Nice that you are punctual. You want something to drink?

No thanks.

You should, however, the cider is excellent here.

I didn't come here to drink.

Up to you. 200,000.

Pardon?

200.000.

If you want to have the tape you have to invest that much.

Completely impossible.

This is reasonable and realistic.

Your wife is from a good family, I inquired.

So, on Wednesday in eight days.

Eleven in the evening, in here.

Will they find Laski guilty soon?

Only people whose conscience...

who have a conscience, betray themselves.

Please bring it to Timmie, he should wear it tomorrow.

I think it would be good if you talk to him.

Are you sleeping?

I've heard that they tease you in school,

because of me.

You don't have to answer if you don't want.

I want to know if it's true.

Whether what is true?

Did you hate him?

Did you kill him?

No Tommie.

I would rather have no father.

Phillip

Come on.

Tommie has a surprise for us.

I'm coming.

Come and sit beside me.

Now we'll hear his first composition.

Attention, here we go.

(German folksong)

- You want to stay here? - Do you like this place? Anna!

...A toast, a toast To cheer and good times

Do you have the money?

No.

In half an hour, the police have the tape.

If I have the money?

Where's the tape?

Here.

Who guarantees that it is the only copy?

It is the only copy.

You need to have that much confidence.

Except if the police interrogates me again.

Then, I couldn't do anything for you.

The money is in my pocket.

There is nothing.

Drink, drink, drink, Fellows, drink! Leave all your troubles at home!

Drink, drink, drink, Fellows, drink! Let no one drink here, alone!

Forget all your worries! Forget all your woes!

Why are you going? Stay here a little longer...

Come over again, everything is fine here.

People, break off...

That was a long walk.

A drink?

Finished something?

- Do you like it? - Yes.

I thought it would look good there.

Yes, good.

Anyone called?

Mr. Friedrich .

He asked for me?

He wanted to know whether we sell any books about Tibet.

Has Tommie woken up?

No, apparently he seems to sleep much better.

Who can that be so late?

Not yet.

I have been here with you all night.

I've been sitting here, in this chair, listening to music.

Tchaikovsky,

all the records we have of him.

Tchaikovsky,

the whole evening Tchaikovsky...

Good evening Mr. Braun. I'm sorry to have to ask you to come along.

Next please.

The man in my inn

has had a bandage,

but he looks like him.

Do you recognize him?

It could have been him,

but I would not swear.

Thank you.

That's him.

Who exactly?

With the red scarf.

You know, sometimes I think the whole world is a big prison

and not only the real prisons are increasing in number

Rules and regulations, they are for those both inside and outside.

They are nothing but the results of our fear

or maybe...

they are just made to keep our fears under control.

Surrender, Mr. Braun.

You have lost.

Your wife admitted that you came home around twelve.

Are you kidding me? Tchaikovsky...

You killed David Reineit and Lasky knew it.

He tried to blackmail you

and you killed him, also.

You won't talk to me?

You have asked no questions.

Any normal person would protest, deny or admit.

But you sit there like a criminal.

Well, you are, probably.

What do you want to achieve with your silence?

Your wife has said

that you were not at home at the time of the crime.

She can't have said that. Because it's not true.
