Hey-
MAN: You didn't hide your

and you left a blood

Follow me.
I live not far
from here.

Ignace!
Hot soup. Come.

I take it you are

How far is it?

I have a special delivery

I could take you.
Thank you.
You rest here tonight.
I will take you
in the morning.
Enjoy your soup.
Please, sit.
(PANTING)
How much do
the Germans pay you?
For turning in your

We'll take that truck.

They had made

Sometimes you have
to pick a side.
Would you prefer it was us?
JOSEF: Should
be the next left.
Pull over here.
WOMAN: Mirek, come
away from the window.
MAN: Anna, get the door!
Yes?
We are looking
for Oldrich Novék.
The Novakovi no
longer live here.
MAN: Who is it?
Just somebody
looking for directions.
I am sorry,
but that's all I know.
Please.
Can you help us?
There is a veterinarian in the
next row of shops up the street.
Ihear
he is a good man.
One that may help.
Thank you.
(BARKS)
He normally only
barks at Germans.
Mmm-mmm. Germans and anyone
giving him a rectal examination.
(WOMAN LAUGHS)
Thank you, Dr. Eduard.
Come along, Benes.
Look after him,
Mrs. Lukeéové.
DOCTOR EDUARD:
Normally, for a dog bite,
you would go to a
hospital, not a vet.
JAN: Did you know
Oldrich Novék?
Yes.
And what if we were to
say that Oldrich Novék
was our contact
here in Prague?
Then I would have to wonder
if you are ill-informed
Czech patriots
or Gestapo spies
trying to infiltrate what
remains of the resistance.
I don't detect
a German accent.
The decoding papers
in your bag,
they don't have
a German font.
And given
that this wound
has more tree bark
than dog bite,
I would have to guess
that you were parachuted
back into Czechoslovakia
with information that
was somewhat out of date.
You're a clever man.
We were also told
you were a good man.
DR. EDUARD: How long
have you been away?
It's been a while.
Rewards are given to people who
inform on anti-n*zi activity.
Heydrich has all but
crushed the resistance.
He has ex*cuted thousands.
I can put you in
contact with the miller.
Maybe he can help you.
You can stay here tonight.
I'll contact the miller
in the morning.
My friend here says
that you are
a clever man.
I agree.
Don't do anything that
would change our opinion.
Go easy on the foot.
You will be dancing
the tango within a week.
(BELL TOLLING)
(LOCK RATTLES)
(BELL DINGS)
Whoa, whoa, whoa...
This is Bfetislav.
The miller.
Eduard told me you were
looking for Oldrich Novék.
Yes.
Would you like to
take a drive with me?
BQETISLAV: Don't move.
Please sit.
You were looking
for Oldrich Novék.
Who gave you
this contact?
London.
And you tell us
this because?
JAN: You are not
giving us much choice
and this doesn't look
like Gestapo headquarters.
You, where are you from?
Your accent, Bohemia?
No, Dolnavilamovice,
Moravia.
So you must know the railway
station at Vladislav?
JAN: Yes.
What's so special
about it?
I presume you are talking about
the large bed of colored roses
that when seen from above is in
the shape of ournafionalflag?
Is it still there?
Seems the Germans have still
not looked at it from above.
I am Vanek.
Ladislav Vanek.
This is Uncle Hajsky.
We are the head of
the Jindra Organization.
Czech resistance.
I am Jan Kubis.
I am Josef Gabcik.
From Slovakia.
You must not be surprised
by our lack of trust.
The Gestapo have been very successful
in infiltrating our network.
Oldrich Novak.
He was taken away
several months ago.
Why wasn't
London informed?
We lost contact with the
Czech government in exile
in London
some months ago.
We need replacement crystals
for the transmitter.
We've been waiting for them
to send someone
to re-establish contact.
Isthatyou?
There were other
men on the plane.
They were dropped elsewhere.
It's possible
they have orders
to re-establish contact
with London but that...
That is not our mission.
What is your mission?
Operation Anthropoid.
Anthropoid?
What is Anthropoid?
We are here
to assassinate
SS Obergruppenfurer
Reinhard Heydrich.
(VANEK SCOFFS)
Are you completely mad?
We have our orders, comrade.
But this is madness.
JOSEF: We have
our orders, comrade.
VAN EKI Heyd rich?
Why stop with Heydrich?
Why not have a go
at Hitler as well?
He is only 300 kilometers
down the road
in a small village
called Berlin.
So we inform London
that you are refusing to
cooperate with our mission.
How dare you question us?
How dare you
question us?
You know what we have
sacrificed for the cause here?
What you have sacrificed?
What has
Czechoslovakia sacrificed?
You have no idea
what we've sacrificed!
Sit down. Please.
You k*ll Heydrich
and Hitler will
tear Prague apart.
I take it you have family
in Czechoslovakia?
Father? Mother?
You k*ll Heydrich,
then you can consider them and
everyone that ever knew you dead.
All Czech patriots
should be ready to
die for their country.
That includes my family.
VANEKI Well, I'm not.
I want to
carry on fighting.
We don't have that many left
that are willing to do that.
We are what's left of
the Czech resistance.
I suggest a lesser rank
should be assassinated.
Perhaps a few of them.
Heydrich is the head
of the secret police.
Only Hitler and Himmler are above
him in the n*zi hierarchy.
VANEK: Exactly my point.
You really think you'll ever get close
enough to assassinate Heydrich?
Our orders have come direct from
the Czech government in London.
So this is about the Czech
government in London
trying to impress
the allies?
It was the allies that gave us to
the Germans in the first place.
Munich was a betrayal,
but it is also now history.
I think what the Czech
government in London
is asking is this.
Is Czechoslovakia
still ready and willing
to resist n*zi Germany?
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
(VIOLIN PLAYING)
UNCLE HAJSKY:
Josef Gabéik.
And Jan Kubié.
You are both
most welcome here.
And please call
me Auntie Moravec.
Aka . Aka .
Ata is my son.
He is studying
to be a violinist.
Ata, this is Josef
and this is Jan.
Pleased to meet you both.
So, try not to go outside,
but if you do,
never walk together.
If you're stopped,
you will need an excuse
for why you're not at work.
We'll try to get you medical
certificates as soon as possible.
Always use our code,
three knocks,
then a single knock.
In the meantime,
lay low and I will
use Ata to make contact.
Good luck.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
Come on through, please.
Josef
There is a way
off the roof?
AUNTIE MORAVEC: There is
a fire escape to the left.
To the right it continues
to the building next door.
It's good enough.
I'm sure you both would
like a glass of Becherovka.
Thank you.
(BANGING ON DOOR)
It's okay.
WOMAN: Mrs. Moravec?
Hey- Hey
WOMAN: There was so much
people at the market.
But I didn't find
the bread that you like.
Come.
Who is it?
It's okay, Marie.
This is Josef
and this is Jan.
They will be
staying with us
while they are
looking for work.
Pleased to meet you.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
Josef and Jan are not
registered with the police
as being residents here,
so, remember, please
keep it strictly to yourself.
I'll put the shopping
in the kitchen.
Welcome.
Mrs. Kovarnikova's daughter.
I pay her for helping out.
Dinner will be at 6:00.
(MAN SPEAKING ON RADIO)
(VIOLIN PLAYING)
Please sit.
Ata, dinner is ready.
And finally
the fiddler is silent.
He is a violinist, Alois.
A violinist.
You two boys looking
for work, then?
Yes.
We are always looking for men to clean
the cinders out of the locomotives.
Thank you, Mr. Moravec.
We'll keep that in mind.
So, what do you do when you
aren't helping out here?
(MARIE CHUCKLES)
You don't have a boyfriend?
No.
How's life in
occupied Prague, Marie?
I guess, not being registered
with the police as residents
has something to do
with this question?
I hate the Germans.
And tell me,
do you have a friend
as lovely as you that...
That you can trust?
Why?
It would be less conspicuous if Jan
and I were not seen out alone.
Young love flourishes
under German occupation.
That sort of thing.
But you're not that young.
Knowing that you are trustworthy
is one thing, Marie.
But doing this
could get you shot.
Perhaps you should
think about it...
My friend, Lenka.
She sometimes carries
messages for Uncle Hajsky.
Good.
We are going to a New Year's
Eve dance tomorrow night.
Would you like to go?
(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
(SINGING JAZZ SONG)
JOSEF: Look at them.
It's like...
It's like some old ritual
that's lost its joy.
Maybe there's hope
in the pretense.
Hello.
It looks like you've landed
on your feet with Lenka.
This was a mistake.
Hello.
Lenka, this is Jan
and Josef.
You know, it's not very polite...
Please sit down.
You are the most beautiful
women in the room.
Congratulations.
But you fail to
understand this is...
This is not
a night off for us.
This is not some game.
Josef, maybe you're
overreacting a little...
Jan, take a look around.
We appreciate the effort, but the
point was not to attract attention.
We needed you
as plain as possible.
Do you understand?
You know, for most girls,
a little lipstick is
the only way to forget
what's happening here.
Even if it's just
for a few hours.
Yes.
Your lipstick
gets you noticed,
and that gets us noticed,
and us being noticed
gets us all shot.
This little scene
needs an ending.
Slap my face.
Slap my face.
I'm not a wh*re.
I think that Went Well.
ALL: Nine... Eight... Seven...
Six... Five... Four...
Three... Two... One.
VANEK: A British Sten
Mark ll machine g*n.
One hundred rounds.
And Model 73 anti-tank
grenades with pencil fuses.
That's everything we could
retrieve from the drop canister.
Uncle says he has
made some progress
with the information
you asked for.
There is a meeting at Cafe
Moravia on Vodiékova Street.
Tuesday. 2:00.
(MAN SPEAKING OVER PA)
I just wanted to apologize
about the other night.
You were completely right
to do what you did.
Marie didn't fully inform
me about the situation.
She is very young,
she still has romantic
ideas about the w*r.
And you?
w*r is not romantic.
We cross here.
After our last date,
I thought you might both
show wearing potato sacks.
(CHUCKLES)
I don't know
what I'm doing.
You are doing fine.
Take a seat here.
Order a drink.
We won't be long.
MAN: Josef.
(JOSEF CHUCKLES)
vALCiK; Jan.
JOSEF: Opélka.
JAN: Valéik.
VANEK: I see you are no
strangers to one another,
but we don't have much time.
We all trained
special operations together.
Valcik here was
even on the same drop.
Yes, dropped 10 minutes later
and 30 miles off course.
VANEK: Thanks to Valcik
and his group Silver A,
we have finally re-established
communications with London.
I have orders to send and
receive any communications
between you and London.
You have your own
decoder book, right?
Yes.
Second Lieutenant Opalka
and Warrant Officer Curda
have completed
Operation Out Distance,
so both are now
available to assist you.
Second Lieutenant Opalka
is the senior officer here.
Yes, this is true,
but your mission objective
supersedes my rank.
We had word from London.
Anthropoid.
Utmost priority.
We assist with
everything possible.
So...
This is your show, bratfi.
So, we know that Heydrich
returns to his family
every day
at Panenské BFeZany.
But, both his chateau and the
castle are both heavily guarded.
They are not
feasible targets.
But once a month,
he also travels
to Berlin, by train.
And we can predict this
because his personal carriages are
prepared several days in advance.
But, again, the station and the
train are both heavily guarded.
What about derailing
the train outside of Prague?
We can derail the train,
but that is no guarantee
that Heydrich is k*lled.
I have made contact
with an ex-pupil of mine
who works as a repair man
inside the castle.
He's willing to help,
but he only knows when Heydrich
arrives in the morning
and when he leaves.
What good is that?
You can build a picture
of his routine.
Sometimes he travels with an armed
escort and sometimes he does not.
Perhaps there is
a pattern in this.
There is a safe house
near the castle.
The repairman could drop off the
timetable every day before work.
Lenka or Marie
could collect it.
Good.
And Jan and I will
follow the route
from the chateau
to the castle.
UNCLE HAJSKY:
Gentlemen,
this operation
will involve almost everyone we
have left in the resistance.
So many have been
captured by the Gestapo.
If you are arrested,
you will face
some harsh facts.
There will be no escape.
You'll be tortured until you
reveal everything you know,
and then you
will be ex*cuted.
You must protect
your fellow comrades
by shutting down any
links you have to them.
Operation Out Distance
has re-supplied us with these.
Carry the cyanide
capsules at all times.
(muss)
We have to end our meeting.
Use the window.
(SOLDIER SPEAKING GERMAN)

(MOTORBIKE ENGINE STARTS)

JAN: Looks like there's
a whole garrison there.
JOSEF: That's our man.
Five minutes after 9:00.
JAN: He's riding solo today.
Wait.
Armed escort.
Thirty seconds behind.
JOSEF: Thirty seconds.
Thirty seconds,
30 seconds.
If we can use a rope
or a steel cable
to stop the Mercedes,
then 30 seconds...
Then 30 seconds
would be all we need.
Even if a rope
can stop the car,
we still need more than 30
seconds to escape from here.
And we'd have to face the
armed guard here in the open.
It would not be
my first choice.
And if it's our only choice?
The point of the mission
is to succeed. Yes?
I'm more worried that
we haven't planned what to do
if we are successful.
What happens afterwards
is not important.
Let's follow
the route to the castle.
(g*nshots FIRING
IN THE DISTANCE)
(MAN SPEAKING OVER PA)
Well?
Arrived 9:15, left 5:15,
with an armed escort.
Armed escort?
There's only one
person in Prague
that travels
with an armed escort.
Are you going to
assassinate Heydrich?
MARIE: What?
Heydrich is the target?
For your own safety,
it's best that you don't
ask too many questions.
It's a bit too late
for that now.
Well, you agreed
to help the resistance.
Who the target is
should not concern you.
We are about to help you
assassinate Reinhard Heydrich.
Of course it concerns us.
JAN: Okay.
Everyone just relax.
Maybe it was a mistake not
to inform you of the danger.
m*rder Heydrich?
JOSEF: No, no.
Assassinate Heyd rich.
m*rder implies
he has a life worth living.
So you think we are
just two little girls
who are here to follow the
important parachutists around?
VVhoa.Lenka.
We've been resisting here from
the beginning in our own way.
I personally don't have any
reservation to k*lling a n*zi pig.
But don't treat us like
what you are about to do
doesn't affect us.
It does and it will.
And you should keep your weapon
clean because it's filthy.
Marie?
Where are all
my pots and pans?
This exit here, is this.
You see?
It's the slowest
part of the route.
Anywhere else is impossible.
So we do it here.
Agreed?
Yes.
Perhaps not perfect,
but it's the best option.
JOSEF: Good.
(KNOCKING)
9217 to 4241.
Without.
Are you really going to
go through with this?
We have our orders.
So, you k*ll Heydrich.
What then?
You think there
aren't more like him?
They come and
the k*lling continues
even worse than
it did before.
When does it stop?
I wish I had
an answer for you.
You think any of
this makes sense to me?
Then walk away now.
And go where, Marie?
You think we can escape
from what is happening here?
Pretend this madness
is not real?
Some days I'm not
even sure it is real.
Heydrich chokes the people of
this city with a blanket of fear.
People are shot for what?
Their race? Their religion?
Their cigarettes?
You hear the stories
about Poland.
JAN: (SHUSHES)
Marie, it's okay.
Just tell me we are
doing the right thing.
I think it is my turn to apologize
to you about the other morning.
You were right to be angry.
We should have told you
what was at risk.
Given you the choice
to walk away.
My father was
a captain in the army.
Wanted sons,
got three daughters.
He and many others
were arrested in '39
when Germany took control
over Czechoslovakia.
And when Heydrich took
over here last September,
his first order was to
execute all the prisoners.
My father was among 5,000 shot
in the first week by Heydrich.
For me there's
no walking away.
Heydrich is worth the risk.
We have checked the route.
We think we know
how to do it.
I will arrange a meeting.
At the cafe,
the day after tomorrow.
3:00 p.m.
Our original contact,
Oldrich Novék.
Who was his direct handler?
Ladislav Vanek.
He is the one who's most
opposed to what we have to do.
All I'm asking is
what is he so afraid of?
Jan?
Sorry.
(SIGHS)
(MUSIC PLAYING)
JOSEF: So he approaches here.
Corner of Kirchmayer
and Holeschowitzer Street.
Here.
OPALKA: Yes, his car will have to
really slow down to take that corner.
Yes, he slows to
about 10 miles per hour.
We've averaged out
his morning arrival times.
We can expect him
at approximately 9:30 a.m.
OPALKA: And the weapons?
At that range the Sten g*n should
hit everything within the car.
And the armed escort?
We have found no pattern.
Some days, yes.
Some days, no.
If there is an armed escort,
we stand down
and await the next day.
You know I have been against
this action from the start.
Yes, that's been clear.
VANEK: I cannot
give the go-ahead
without asking
London to reconsider.
Ladislav, this is a military operation.
It's not your order to give...
Without the resistance,
this mission doesn't exist.
JAN: Do you want to put...
(MAN SHUSHING)
CURDA: lam with Ladislav.
We should get London
to rethink our position
here in Prague.
We have our orders, Curda.
And nothing has changed.
It's easy for London
to give orders.
It's our lives
on the line...
Let's wait
for re-confirmation.
JOSEF:
We waited four months.
Four months.
London needs action.
Then a few more days
won't make a difference.
Valéik, how long before you
can get to the transmitter?
I can get to the transmitter
the day after tomorrow.
Then a couple of days for London
to transmit back the answer.
AUNTIE MORAVEC:
Happy birthday.

this is your party,
but we have a little

(BOTH CHUCKLE)
I have asked Marie to marry
me and she has said yes.
AUNTIE MORAVEC:
Congratulations.
LENKA: Congratulations.
MARIE: Thank you.
Thank you.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Why are we here?
Hmm?
I know.
I know.
Who's to say
it won't happen?
London calIs it off.
You're lying to yourself,
my friend.
Because it is easier.
I have to believe
there is a way through this.
That there is a normal life
waiting for us.
The way things used to be.
Marie makes me feel
that there is hope.
I love her.
I do. I love her.
JAN: I had the idea
to transfer the 73
into a water canteen
for better mobility.
Rigged for impact detonation.
Don't drop them, eh?
(GRUNTS)
That was the empty one.
(BOTH LAUGH)
No, not funny, Jan.
Not funny.
(MUSIC PLAYING ON GRAMOPHONE)
"Anthropoid proceed.
"Stop.
"Upmost importance."
Nothing about
getting us out afterwards.
(SCOFFS)
(LIGHTER CLICKS)
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
There's a problem.
UNCLE HAJSKY: One of our contacts inside
the castle has seen correspondence
ordering Heydrich
back to Berlin.
And there have been
conversations in the household
about a new posting to Paris.
It means that once
he goes to Berlin,
he may not be back.
When does he leave?
Day after tomorrow.
Then we have no choice.
We do it tomorrow.
We do it tomorrow.
JAN: What? What is it?
Ladislav has received a new
transmission from London.
And?
They agreed with my request
to stand down the mission.
We believe we see
the situation clearly,
therefore,
given the situation,
any actions against officials
of the German Reich
do not come
into consideration.
Let the Jindra group know.
JOSEF: (SCOFFS) No.
Ladislav,
I've just decoded
a message from London.
"Proceed.
Upmost importance."
But this clearly states
you must stand down.
(CHUCKLES) You are deluded.
This is for Jindra.
So how can we recognize this?
Then at least wait
for us to clarify it.
It may have
superseded your order.
JOSEF: We have no time.
After tomorrow
Heydrich will be gone.
UNCLE HAJSKY:
I agree with Josef.
I don't think this
is a direct command.
I believe its purpose is to
calm the nerves in Jindra.
I know you all doubt me.
UNCLE HAJSKY: No, Ladislav...
Please stop.
(SIGHS)
Suspect me of collaboration.
I know you've had me followed.
I understand you
don't trust me, but,
if I was an informer
for the Gestapo,
do you think you
would still be here?
Do you?
Then you tell me, Ladislav.
What are you afraid of?
I fear Czechoslovakia
will be wiped from the map.
You ask me if I'm afraid?
Yes, I'm afraid.
(DOOR SLAMS)
Jan, Uncle,
we do it tomorrow.
As planned.
May God be with you.

I will wait for you
up the street.
Uncle said we weren't
needed for a while.
Is it today?
Promise me.
(g*nshots FIRING IN DISTANCE)
We have plenty of time.
8225.
Where's Curda?
(SIGHS)
Never mind.
Valcik, you take
this street behind me.
We have some sun,
so take this.
If he approaches
without an armed escort,
then use it to signal.
And if he does?
Then“.
Then light a cigarette.
When the car slows
to take the corner,
I will step out and open
fire with the Sten g*n.
This will signal the attack.
Jan, you stand
behind the attack point
so you can throw grenades at the
armed escort if there is one.
Opélka, you try
a slow walk across here.
As he approaches,
maybe you can slow him down
before he takes the corner.
Is that clear?
VALCiK; Yeah.
Good luck.

Where were you, Curda?
I didn't think that you
were really going to do it.
It's all over the radio.
You shot him?
The radio said
20,000 SS troops
have been drafted in
to look for us.
I need to get my family
out of Prague.
No, Curda.
No one is going
anywhere, Curda.
You try and run now
and they will pick you up
before you reach
the city limits.
You go home to your family, you
stay calm, you shut your mouth.
You think you can do that?
Huh? Yeah.
We failed, Curda.
Failed? No.
We failed.
JOSEF: Jan?
Jan.
The Sten...
I'm sorry.
(MAN SPEAKING GERMAN ON RADIO)
Karl Frank has temporarily
taken Heydrich's place,
and has proclaimed a state
of emergency and a curfew.
A reward of 10 million crowns
will be given for any information
that leads to the arrest
of the criminals.
Anyone caught
aiding the criminals
will be shot,
along with his entire family.
UNCLE HAJSKY:
What went wrong out there?
(MAN SPEAKING OVER PA)
We didn't even k*ll him.
Vvounded.
How bad?
It's hard to say.
The SS still have
the hospital surrounded,
so presumably,
he's still alive.
It seems like the Germans have
more men and g*ns up there
than on the Eastern Front.
They have taken
several thousand hostages.
So, what do we do now?
Nothing is leaving
or entering Prague.
They are searching
door to door.
We have no safe houses left.
So, where do we go?
I've asked Father
Vladimir Petrek.
He has agreed to hide
all the parachutists
that are still here in Prague
until we can
return you to London.
Wait here, a few hours.
I will find a safe route
to the cathedral.

You're risking

For what?
To sh**t a few Germans?
She's gone.

OPALKA: Gentlemen.
This is Svarc,
Bubll'k and Hruby.
They are from
the airdrop this spring.
Boredom may be the biggest
enemy we have here.
I'm suggesting three men
on guard duty
in the nave balcony
at all times.
We rotate
every six hours.
These three
take first watch.
(SIGHS)
I'm sorry it wasn't the
outcome we all hoped for.
None more than us.
(THUNDER RUMBLING)
Reinhard Heydrich
has died in hospital.
A direct result of the injuries
sustained in the attack.
Yesterday, the Germans
went to a village, Lidice,
and shot every man
over the age of 16.
The women and children
have been taken to camps,
and the buildings
were razed to the ground.
There has been talk that the
village aided you somehow.
I've never even
been to Lidice.
(FATHER PETREK SIGHS)
These are dangerous times.
Mere gossip wipes a whole village
from the face of the Earth.
Today Karl Frank issued
an amnesty broadcast.
A full pardon for any
person and their family
in exchange for any information
about the assassins,
even if they did not
come forward before.
But there is a deadline
of five days.
After that, they plan
to execute 30,000 Czechs.
This must stop.
What do you propose?
Me and Josef
will go to a park,
place placards around our necks
saying that we k*lled Heydrich
and commit suicide.
Jan.
Stupid talk.
This is stupid talk.
As a soldier,
it is your duty to stay alive
and continue fighting.
Do you understand that,
Warrant Officer Kubié?
The responsibility
does not rest with you.
We know who is responsible.
They will have to answer
eventually, and they will.
If I didn't believe that,
I would not be here now.
JAN: Thank you, Father.
Aka .
Have you seen Marie?
Is she well?
Beyond this brickwork
and masonry,
there is a large main sewer
that empties into the river.
How do you know?
I found some plans
in Father Petrek's office.
Now, if we can chisel through
this, we have a means of escape.
Escape to where?
Well, until the British
send plans for our rescue,
we are stuck here.
But should we be discovered,
there is no way out.
I would like us at least
to have this option.
We would then take our
chances in the streets.
Two men should be
working here at all times.
HRUBY: What's her name?
Lenka.
Earlier, what Jan said...
About taking
your own lives.
Was he serious?
Maybe.
"Cowards die many times
before their deaths.
"The valiant never
taste death but once."
Shakespeare.
You say
you know the men
who assassinated
Reichsprotektor
Reinhard Heydrich,
but you didn't
take part in it.
(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)
(THUDDING)
You say you don't
know where they are,
but you know the family
who sheltered them.
CURDA: No, please...
Please, no. (GROANING)
You walked in here on your own
accord to give us this statement.
You say you are a true patriot
and the reason for doing that
is because you want
to protect your family
and for the k*lling
of innocent Czechs to stop.
(cu RDA GROAN s)
And you say your name is...

Apparently our presence here
is endangering the church.
He wants us to leave.
But Petrek has
talked to Hajsky
and there is a plan
to get us all out.
When?

Two in the coffins,
two under
