Rankin I'm sorry I I have a way of making enemies from that subject pretty unpopular well we shall consider it the objective opinion of an objective historian historian psychiatrist could explain it better the German sees himself as the innocent victim of world envy and hatred conspired against set upon by inferior people's inferior nations he cannot admit to error much less to wrongdoing not the German we chose to ignore Ethiopian Spain but we learned from our casualty list the price of looking the other way men of troops everywhere I've come to know For Whom the Bell told dr. German he still follows his warrior guards marching devarnè Aryan strains his eyes still fixed upon the fiery sort of secret land in those subterranean meeting places that you don't believe in the Germans dream world comes alive and he takes his place in shining armor beneath the balance of the Teutonic Knights mankind is waiting for the Messiah but for the German the Messiah is not the Prince of Peace he's another Barbarossa another Hitler well then you you have no faith in the reforms that are being effected in Germany I don't know mr. Wilson I I can't believe that people can be reformed except from within the basic principles of equality and freedom never have never will take root in Germany the world of freedom has been voiced in every other tongue all men are created equal Olivier Garrity fraternity but in German there's Marx proletarians unite you have nothing to lose but your chains but max wasn't a German max is a Jew but my dear child if we concede your argument there is no solution what's it once again I differ well what is it then annihilation for the last babe in harness Charles I can't imagine you're advocating a Carthaginian peace well it was in a story and I must remind you that the world hasn't had much trouble from Carthage in the past 2,000 years Oh there speaks our pedagogue speaking of teachers mr.

Wilson is here on a very serious matter we must try to help him every way possible he wants to ask a few questions of you what what why do you want to know mr. Wilson you know about the body that was discovered yesterday a mr. Rankin yes did you ever meet the deceased no no no I never met him have you seen the body no well then how can you be sure you never met him of course I can't be certain mr. Wilson do you suspect me or something if so what I'm shielding a murderer perhaps this photograph will refresh your memory do you recognize this man that is konrad meinike commander in charge one of the more efficient concentration camps you know him don't you you have met him here in Harper no no I I've never seen that man mr. Wilson judge would you mind putting out the lights I've been showing a father some films and I'd like you to see them too I'm on the Allied Commission for the punishment of war criminals it's my job to bring escaped Nazis to justice it's that job that brought me to Harper surely you don't think mr. Wilson I've never I've never so much hasn't even seen Annette's well you might without your realizing it they look like other people and act like other people when it's does that benefit gas chamber mrs. Rankin the candidates were first given hot shower so that their pores would be open and the gas was act that much more quickly and this is lime pit in which hundreds of men women and children were buried alive why'd you want me to look at these horrors all this you're seen it's all the product of one mind the mind of a man named Franz Kindler Franz Kindler yes he was the most brilliant of the younger minds from the Nazi Party it was Kindler who conceived the theory of genocide mass depopulation of conquered countries so that regardless of who won the war Germany would emerge the strongest nation in Western Europe biologically speaking unlike Gables Himmler and the rest of them Schindler had a passion for anonymity the newspapers carried no picture of him oh no and just before he disappeared he destroyed every evidence that might link him to this past down to the last fingerprint there's no clue to the identity of Franz Kindler except one little thing he has a hobby that almost amounts to a mania clocks so lots of people you yourself well I I'm not quite finished mrs. Rankin in prison in Czechoslovakia a war criminal was awaiting execution this was konrad meinike one-time executive officer for Franz Kindler he was an obscenity on the face of the earth the stench of burning flesh was in his clothes but we gave him his freedom on the chance that he might leave me to Kindler he let me hear mrs. Rankin and here I lost him until yesterday your dog Rhett found him for me but unfortunately my Nicky was dead and buried now in all the world there is only one person who can identify France Kindler that person is the one who knows knows definitely who my came to Harper to see no it's my Charles is not a Nazi you were a Rankin's house during the afternoon with a day ranking spouse oh yes yes let anyone come while you were there not try hard to remember it's not so long ago only two weeks you were hanging curtains no Angie were you alone all the time no who else was there jaws he came right after his last class and we were together for more than an hour you you had nothing to make my husband with this man came to accept a wild suspicion it's a ridiculous is fishing you're trying to use me to implicate him and you can't you can't involve me in a lie that's a lie [Applause] you know that your welfare and Noah's means more to me than anything don't you yes yes you've got to face this thing with complete honesty sister your entire happiness may well depend on you're telling me the absolute truth mr. Wilson is right and you have innocently married a criminal well then there is no marriage there's no call upon your loyalty as a wife he's good he's good he wouldn't hurt any anybody except to protect somebody he loves he's he's good well then the truth can't hurt him [Music] Charles was not with you with that afternoon sister I remember your saying so you came home you're against him to it I guess you are you've never liked you don't believe me now [Music] she has the facts now but she won't accept them they're too horrible for her to acknowledge not so much the Rankin could be Kindle oh but that she could ever have given their love to such a creature but we have one Ally her subconscious it knows what the truth is and is struggling to be heard the will to truth within your daughter is much too strong to be denied no Kyra Wilson if he's not Charles Rankin we should be able to expose him without too much difficulty I'm not interested in proving that he isn't Charles Rankin I'm only interested in proving that he's Franz Kindler how do you propose to do that through your daughter unless I'm mistaken she's headed for a breakdown that's the usual result of a person being inwardly divided Rankin will recognize this and that's when I'm banking on what do you read he can't afford to trust a person approaching history he won't you'll have to act he may try to escape before she collapses which would only be an admission of guilt oh go on you may kill her you're shocked at my cold-bloodedness I meant quite naturally order father and it's because you are a father judge Longstreet that I am talking to you like this naturally we'll try to present murder being done however the proof that murder is is a would be the strongest evidence that your daughter could have [Music] let's strike hundred years after he was trapped jobs just like you said mr. Wilson bethere he tried to tell me that you're a Nazi I'm supposed to believe it commanding you being escaped nets oh he thinks he's very clever that Wilson his idea was to horrify me into telling him about the turtleman who did he say he thought I was a Nazi Franz Kindler he made it all up just to trick me but I didn't tell him anything and I didn't tell father anything I ought faced both of them Charles you'll be civil enough to prove you're not we'll just find someone who is in your class at college and he'll identify you and that's all they'll be doing what you say is true we can't touch me quite safe you ever say anything hi watch out I promise I well they can torch him and I won't tell them anything but chances awakened purple we must go down and greet they must act naturally smile at them to understand yes are you alright and when she slept that angels died margin it was a sight to behold professor you sure knocked it off my hat's off do you congratulations mr. Rankin she's gonna chime all night long how's your buddy gonna get any sleep we're facing darling oh I'm shaking jury's gonna be on Ross roost they were 15 minutes Sara Sara I've told you I want these curtains drawn I don't like the sunlight streaming you know too bad for them Mary that's rubbish and you know it Oh the other house we never closed it has nothing to do with it this is my house and I want them gone suit yourself then Marty gloomy for the party it's a bad time already were you able to see when they opened the grave mr.
