The line is occupied! Do you want to wait?
Yes! What what was stolen ? What ?
three bales of [?] ?... and what else?....nothing else?.....But why....why?
What? You have chased the thieves just in time ? Who is actually speaking ? The porter of the house?
Please, listen Mr.Porter, why do you chased the thieves?? Of course there is not much stolen, if you chase them just in time! Three bales of [?]!
That won't even worth a notice of three rows!
What happened? - Nothing happened! Thats the point! Nothing happens anymore in Vienna!
There! Roof on fire at Seidengasse!
an old gramophone and three empty hat cases were burned!
Collision of an omnibus and a milk truck! The milk leaked onto the street! These are my "sensational" news!
Riehl! You should come to our boss!

Hello? Yes! Riehl? Is not in the room! But I'll leave a message. please?
Yes. seven o'clock.....

Now we could stay together a bit!
you had a lot of work today? - As always! - Something special happened?
nothing special!
by the way, my boss has called me today.
will you receive a bonus for christmas?
No, I won't! But I got dismissed.
Chocolate, peppermints, sweets - I would like to have a roll of peppermint.
want a peppermint? - Thanks.
And what will you do now?
What should I do?
Looking for a new job! Perhaps I'll find one? Perhaps I won't?
And? - What, and ? You wanted to ask something?
I know what you wanted to ask, Jenny! What will happen to us both!
to our plans! to our future!
Jeanette! Let's finish!
Why chain together, if it makes no sense?
It's better for you! And better for me..., yes for me, too!
I have to think clear now. To be free! Unstressed! Otherwise I'll never achieve anything!
See, Jeannette, You won't lose that much!
You'll surely find something better!
You're a woman.! God, for women it's easy!
Yes... it's easy for women...
Jeannette! ....maybe it'll work someday...
Maybe I will come up again....on top..
then I'll pick you up
And where? At the Filmbörse [film exchange market] ?
The train ! Wait here! I'll be back soon...
Well, thats the limit!
A guy should be lucky to have a girl like you, but instead he's doing such things!
But, what of it ?
It's over! Over is over! Finished!
What was behind that small journalist?
But haven't I told you always.. since you came to Vienna...Keep away from the men of the press!
First, they never have time for you! Second, they all dance bad...
..and third: they always would have known everything better!
These are not men for one of us!
Someone like Stefan, you'll find a hundred times each day, if you want!
as good as you look, you just have to wave with your little finger...
..and three multi-millionaire will lie at your feet!
Am I not right, Jeannette?
Of course you're right, Mimi!
Attention! Silence! Soundfilm recording!
Supernumeraries, please!
fast, fast, Ladies and Gentlemen!
Where is the lady in the car?
So..let me see you.....very nice!
And take care of the coat! It is worth 10.000 Shillings !
Good evening!
So, you are a lady of society, and came from a journey by car!
What do have there? - My hand-suitcase!
Yes, leave it, you can take it with you!
As the lady's maid gets out of the car, you give to her! Where's the lady's maid?
Where is the lady's maid, how often should I call her, god damn it!
I come on, to this rowdy. - Come on, come on, where in the world are you?
Yes, please? - So, you will seat yourself next to your employer....
and...- Pardon, excuse me, but a lady's maid will never seat herself next to her employer!
So,...... you just have to do what I've told you.
Your employer is... democratically-minded!
You will now drive quite quickly in front of here.
This here is a luxury hotel. Like in Switzerland, St.Moritz, Semmering, or as you like.
So, you'll stop the car, the lady maid says: "We arrived, madame!"
Yes. - The porter..Porter!...comes out of the hotel, opens the roof, helps you getting out,...
You get out of the car... the lady's maid follows...you go through the revolving door, and at the same moment...
... a poor, ragged flower-girl arrives
Be careful that you do not catch a cold! - Unfortunately I already got one!
Well, take you collar quite up!
Have you seen? The leading, he is kissing the hand!
For us, he didn't even say "Good evening"
Don't talk that much! Someday you'll be fíred forever!
So what?
So, ....as said....you'll meet the flower-girl...
....reach into the bag, buy a bunch, and quickly enter the hotel
Yes, and further?
And further nothing! Then comes the big scene with the flower-girl!
go back with the car! go back! Take care!
Come here, Franz. To the signal lamps!
and when it lights up, you drive off!
For 10 shilling! At this dam coldness!
If at least one time one could play a small role!
but this.... only hold the tire for others!
Jesus Maria!
Madame! I think we arrived!
So! Follow her! And back to me!
You roll your eyes and sing your song!
No one asks us...
..if we're happy sometimes, and no one asks....
..if we are happy sometimes, or if something bothers us...
No one asks us, no none asks...
No one asks us,....
...if there is a little bit of sun for us...
..no one asks us, if there is someone...
...who is good to us, who loves us...
What do you know? What do you know?
what a women's heart beats ?
what it moves, what it excites?
..what it feels, and what it bears..
No one asks us..
... if we're sometimes a little happy, and no one asks.....
Stop, everything!
Children, this is impossible, what are you doing!
That's so emotionsless! That's no hit, that's a funeral march!
Please! As you please!
The suitcases there! They must be filled with something! They are too light, when carried. Don't you see that by yourself?
The car must get an italian number plate! I told this twice today!
Children, children! Where are the ladies?
This is too big..... too small...
What about this ? I think that works!
Yes! That's it!
That's already it!
Why don't you come, when I call you? For heavens sake!
Why don't you take care, when you get out! The countess behaves lake a lady's maid, and the lady's maid like a countess!
Why do you make such a sad face? You'll arrive here for your pleasure!
And you don't flirt with the porter! This is a serious hotel, and no...
Spitzkopf! Here!
This Heider you can't engage anymore! She behaves like its a grace that she works for us!
the car back! Get everything out of the decoration!
Mr.Conductor take care that everything will work finde!
Another Take!
I've called her today three times!
They always said, that she isn't at home! - Maybe she didn't wanted to talk!
Nonsense! I have done nothing to her!
Do you think it's pleasant for a young girl, to be always put off.
This evening will surely celebrated a great reconciliation, again?
Why?
Well, after the recordings you will meet with Stefan ?
No, we won't meet us!
We will never meet us again!
Come on! That's all sloppily!
You and Stefan..you surely get together again!
The worst situation is mine!
You will be further on at the Filmboerse, will say a hundred times "Thanks", when you will get engaged!
You will wait forever for the "big" role!
..that will never come!
You will get old and embittered!
And after 30 years.. you will still doing film!
Playing old salon ladies, for a fee of 10 Shilling!
Madame, I think we arrived....
Please, was it now good enough? - Yes! NOW it was good!
Jeannette! For Heaven's Sake! Have you gone mad?
We already drove too far!
Jeannette! What's up with you? What are you looking for? Come to your senses at last!
Where are you going ?
Help! Damn it
Semmering! Meeting point of the high society.
Read "Das Journal"!
Hello? Here is "Journal" ! Yes?...
Film atelier at the Rosenhügel? Yes, please!
What? You have news for the paper?
But why?
Why
But there must have happened something before!
You can't explain it for yourself, too?
Thanks for the message.
Jeannette disappeared!
Good heavens! We both together haven't 7 shilling in our pockets!
We can't always be dressed like that! In these dresses!
These are full!
What's inside there?
Mr.Ochs, the property manager! He put his complete fundus in there, to make the suitcases more heavier!
Yes? - Madam? - Immediately! Just a moment, please!
I'm going to open, quickly, ok?
Good evening!
Madam, it is prepared for the lady's maid. If madam allows, I'll show it to the miss.
Follow the waiter, Mimi!
what,what? why ? - Temporary I do not need You !
Please, go!
Just a moment! I have to take my suitcase!
Follow me!
by the way, I have reserved a lovely room for you!
just vis-a-vis mine, sweety!
How dare you! Who is here "Sweety"? - Well, You!
you.... - Yes, it's always like that with me in the beginning!
First, I leave no impression to women, but then, after a while, the get really mad about me!
An actress dissapeared during film recordings with a foreign car!
You wrote 4 rows about that! That's the peak of the uninspired!
Please, send Riehl to me!
With such message, I'll make news that will be for 8 days on everybody's lips!
Riehl! You get around in the film circles?
You will take care of the story with the dissapeared film actress!
Search for material, pictures, evidences why she dissappeared, with whom she dated, her love affairs, etc, etc
I beg your pardon, Mr.Doctor....
...could not another one....? - I guess you will make it properly!
I will try, Mr.Doctor! - Try to get to the bottom of the story, and try to find out, where the girl currently runs around!
Now, thats thick!
You bathe here calmly, and I'm sitting there all alone in my shabby attic room, and die of sheer fright!
In any case, don't forget the difference! I'm a countess, and you are my lady's maid!
Why countess? - Attention! Don't talk too! At the notification letter I couldn't write our real names!
How do you called yourself?
Maria Louise Countess of Monte Christo ? Permanent residence: Italy?
mmh, probably a pseudonym, high ranking personality.. or something like that!
It seems, that madam wants to stay incognito for one week at us!
For us it's gonna be alright!
Say, how long will you stay in bath?
This opportunity one has to take! Bathing for free, you can't have every day!
Mimi? - Yes? - You stay here at the room, and will wait until I come back!
Where are you going ?
Downstairs! See, if the coast is clear! - You, I'm starving.
I'm ordering something to eat for me!
Hello? Please, the lady's maid of madam speaking!
Please, one tea with lemon, cream, rum, milk, together with bread roll, toast, cake, eggs, bacon, sausage, salad, sardines, butter, cheese, honey.
What? No, nothing else!
Hello! Hello! Yes, please, also some fruits! Pears and bananas! Yes, please!
Tomorrow we will be thrown out here, anyway!
Do you have the Vienna newspaper from this morning already ?
Unfortanately all are already sold! Perhabs, madam, you'll find some at the reading room! - Thank you!
Jeannette Heider. The disappeared film actress.
Mr. Dr. Harmi? - Sorry?- Mr. Harmi, if I'm right ?
My dear lady are confusing me.
My name is Rumowski! - Yes, of course, Mr.Rumowski, excuse me please!
We have met us last year for the press dance in Berlin, right ?
I am sorry, I have never been to the press dance in Berlin!
But of course! Don't You remember? We had a dance together! - Oh. Too bad!
I would remember You for sure! But ..But I can't even dance! - Oh! Should I deceive myself like that? I really believed that we have seen each other before!
May I ask you, what do you want from me, dear lady?
What do You mean? - Well, you try to cause a conservation...so, I could assume, that....
Now, you are wrong! I don't want anything from you!
Mimi ? - Here I am!
Look here! They already write in the newspapers about us! - oh, Jesus!
Here!
Here! Jeannette Heider during a film recording disengaged. Together with her: Mimi Rosicka.- Well, what a meaness! Your name is printed much bigger!
together with a cabriolet, 6 cylinder. Car number: A 25523
You! They have forgotten that we have an Italian number plate!
You have my newspapers! And I'm search for it at the hotel!
Excuse me, please! I have just taken them by mistake!
Please,please! It's my pleasure! Just keep it!
by the way: merry christmas!
You? Who was that? - No idea!
At the end, that was someone from the police! - How do you figure?
He had such a suspicious smile!
Room 24/25 ! You inquire who is the lady? Where does she come from? ...and so on....
As always!
If he really was from the police, they will get us soon!
Then we will get thrown out, arrested, and then we will get in prison!
And all, because you suddenly went crazy!
Jeannette! Where are you going? - To the director of the Hotel! I'll admit everything!
No,no! I no way you have to talk to him personally!
We'll write to him! With all mode and politeness!
You're right! Let's write...
Dear.....- "Dear" is not gentle enough!
You have to write: lovely, good, the best, most nicest, cute Mr.Director.....
Nonsense!
Dear Mr.Director! ..... - before you will know it through others......we will voluntarily admit......
that we ... have booked under wrong names... and without any money......
... a room in your Hotel!
Write: In your dearest Hotel!
well, we have to be a bit nice to this man!
Come in!
Excuse me, if I disturb you. In the name of hotel company, I allow myself to wish you a merry christmas!
In a few minutes will begin the radio transmission of the christmas mass....
.. at the St.Stephan' s cathedral! If the ladies would listen to it.....
.. I will switch on the radio!
I thank you, Mr.Director!
Once again: Have a merry christmas!
My ladies: Do you allow me, that I will add my wishes to the ones of the direction?
I know what it means, to spend the holy night abroad!
Jeannette! Don't leave! Don't leave me!
Here you have my golden lip stick as a christmas present! I don't need it, anyway!
Thanks you!
And when you will return to us, Jeannette, we won't say a word of criticism, we will just be happy to have you back!
The bill! - Take care that there won't be any type errors!
For you, Jeannette! It's my present, yes? You have to take it always with you! It brings you luck!
Thank you!
You know? This as a souvenir about our first film that we played together, as washerwomen?
Mimi? -Yes?- Now we can't dissappoint the director this evening! Are we going ? -Yes!
Yes? What's up?
Please open!
Yes, I will come!
Please, conduct yourself quiet! Search the room!
Dear Madam, please forgive, but...ohhh....no...! - I'm sorry that I have to enter into your room, but...
Please! Just do your duty!
But... a man must have crept in here!
A man ? - Yes, without a doubt a hotel thief
The porter came across this door, and found the lock been blown!
Haven't you heard anything?
Have you noticed anything, madam? - I slept, I have heard nothing!
Presumably a man knew that here lives a single lady!
Now that's terrible! And in my hotel! All empty! All robbed! Here, please...
Damn!
He has been working properly! - He just taken the wardrobe for his girl-friend!
Oh, now this so embarrassing! So embarassing! Of course, we are ready to completely refund the damage done!
Madam, at what time did you go to bed?
Around midnight!
Now it's half past one... the waiter passed around 1 o'clock...
The thief can only been here between midnight and 1 o'clock! - After half past midnight nobody has left the hotel!
Then the thief must be still inside the hotel! - Come with me, my lord! - Good night!
A I said, madam: ALL will be refunded - only one request....
....no one will hear about the incident, because if someone will ever hear about it... then it will be colossal damage to our business!
All people could leave, couldn't they? Please...
..will you soon make a list of the things that were stolen? We will refund yourself for everything....
Mr. Director!
Don't worry! I won't do anything to you!
Who are you ?
I am the one, they're looking for outside!
Just call me "Baron" ! "Baron" will be enough!
By the way.. I would be more interested to know who you are?
Just a moment!
Just a moment, little woman!
I just gave you the honor of my burglar, by mistake!
My informations were wrong!
I just thought, that another lady would live here! A Mrs Longwy!
One estimates the jewelery of this noble lady to 60.000 dutch guilders!
Well, at yours, there wouldn't been that much to get, right?
Empty suitcases! Empty cabinets!
Tell me, what does all this mean?
Maria Luise, Countess of Monte Christo!
Strange!
A colleague! If I'm not mistaken, right?
Oh.... console yourself! We all once started!
Now, go at last! - Well, don't get unpleasant!
God, how touching!
A farewell letter!
We won't do that, ok?
Stop!
Stay here!
So!
So, these are the things that I would have stolen , if they would have been here!
I just heard, that the director will refund you everything.
I mean, why don't we make the man his joy ?
You will give him this list, and you will get therefore the complete travel equipment of a lady that is allowed to have those visiting cards!
oh, one have to force this child to his luck!
Satisfied?
So, here is the door! Quick fix! quick, quick, quick!
What a calamity! Terrible, terrible! The police has searched all the corridors, but no trace of the thieves to find!
I must once again beg your pardon!
Mr. Director!.....I would now....
Oh! Oh, my dear lady already have set up the list! Thanks a million....
List of stolen objects, 1 fur jacket, 2 evening dresses, 1 tea dress, 1 complete sports dress, 2 Pyjama, 3 pair of shoes, 8 pair of stockings, 2 hats, 2 hand bags, 3 rings.... ....cash 2000 shillings!
hmm, that is just yet!
Mr.Director! That...... that is all.....
Of course, madam! And I hope that despite the holidays, I will be able to succeed the matter as soon as possible!
But ... most of all... I ask for your discretion..
But no attention! But no scandal!
So, is everything ready? - Yes! - well, ok!
Just take, what you'll be given!
Without dresses, you are lost in this world!
Without dresses, you'll achieve nothing!
No false inhibitions!
It won't harm the hotel direction, and it will help you!
You can easily take this by me!
I have stolen so much in my life, that sometimes I can play also Santa Claus!
So, whether I'm still asleep.... or I went completely mad!
All day, people get in and out of your room and bringing dresses, shoes, hats... clothes...
Tell me, what are those things?
Christmas gifts!
Now finally talk reasonable! What happened?
You have given the letter to the director ? - No!
Something happened, what have caused me to stay here!
So to speak, a twist of fate!
Jeannette, that's not true! The fate doesn't twist! There must happened something, that you're concealing me!
The tide has turned, as I see. First, you wanted to get high up, and I'm not....
...and now I want, but you don't!
Jeannette, for Heaven's sake, no funny business, let's drive back!
Back ? Where?
To Stefan!
No one asks us...if we're sometimes happy.....and nobody asks....
....whether we are longing, whether something bothering us...
...no one ask us, no one asks.....
...what do you know? What do you know?.....
...for what a women's heart beats, what it moves....
...what it excites,...what it feels, what it bears...
No one asks us...if we're sometimes happy.....and nobody asks....
...no one ask us, no one asks.....
Mr. Waiter!
Tea, please!
Do You permit?
I thought, you can't dance at all?
That was not my intention! I just wanted to.....
...to take a seat....
.. we are old friends.. from the press dance in Berlin.....
That was a mistake!
Unfortunately, unfortunately!..... If you just knew how inconsolable I am, not having attended this press ball!
So?
Yes, then we would be luckily known each other for a over a year!
Yesterday, You weren't so polite!
Yes, you may be right!
But you can be assured, that I will do my best, to amend this unforgivable mistake!
Provided, that you will give me the opportunity to do it!
Do you smoke?
Thanks!
May I make a confession?
But... don't be mad!
Is it that bad?
Yes!
Just speak!
As I met you for the first time in this strange way, yesterday evening, I thought you are.....
...in winter time, it's really a magnificent, incomparable, beautiful place on earth...
Do you always live here ? - No, no just a few month during the year!
and otherwise ? - I'm travelling!
Will you do a lot of winter sports here?
You just wanted to confess to me something ?
Now I wanted to keep it to myself!
No, no, you said, that you thought I am......
Well, what am I ?
A woman pretending to be something to what she isn't in reality!
It seems that you have had not so good experiences with women?
Not yet!
If you have not that luck to be a poor devil...it's known that you have success just because of the money!
And.... what do you think I am, now? - Now ?
I think you are a very strange, very unusual woman ?
Shall we dance now?
excuse me, but.....
.. I would rather go now!
Did I upset?
No, no, no way! But I want to leave!
Then permit at least, to see you again, tomorrow!
I won't stay that long...
Maybe you can call me tomorrow, good,bye! - Good bye!
Where can I do my hair? - There next door!
So....disappear!
But there's no one at home ! The gardener and the cook are away!
Just leave! ...?...
So, leave!
And now there's punch.... after a secret recipe!
May I ?
Maybe I just even met your taste?
Excuse me!
It seems to be correct!
Can someone get me a connection to the hotel?
Will you permit, that I will take care of that?
With whom do you want to talk?
I.. wanted to tell my maid, that I.. will be back for dinner at the hotel!
No.....No, I won't do that!
You are here for the first time, and don't have to leave so fast!
What's the matter with you ?
Don't you feel just a bit comfortable here?
But I do, Mr.Rumowski
I just wanted my maid to know were I am!
Finally, Jeanette!
The last days we haven't .... Where do you came from ?
What do you actually want ?
You'll take one card?
...put them over the bedcover, then you'll ring three times....
..then the door will open, and it comes in...the card!
Who are you, actually ? - Yees, that I can't say to you!
The Countess will be very angry if I would tell you that!
You won't talk about it ?
..but I can guess something, when looking at you...
...you have witnessed a lot of bitterness...
I want to take all your worries away from you !
You shouldn't be burdened by anything!
You need a young man......a nice home..
You need someone who .. who will be always with you..
Just take some faith...
I just have the idea.....
...to make you happy!
To tell me something like this, you didn't need to send your servant away!
Ah...ok!
Where have you been?- At the Hotel, Mr.Rumowski!
Have you done everything?
Yes! The table is ordered for tomorrow evening!
well, ok!
The carriage should drive up!
I have allowed me to reserve for tomorrow's New Year's Eve the same table....
... on which you didn't want to sit to me, the other day!
I hope...
you won't...
refuse my request for the second time?
I'm pleased to be together at a table with you tomorrow evening!
I'm really pleased!
Aaah, now you have cheated! Now you have cheated? . Cheated ? Me? What do you say?
but please, I'll do it again!
No, you have cheated! I've seen it for sure!
Ah, finally there's the Madame Countess!
Please, leave immediately the room!
Yes, Jeannette, the Mister absolutely wanted to wait for you !
I have to speak with you!
Get out!
Now!
Quick!
I want...- Silence!
You will have the goodness to accompany me for a few moments!
Got it ?
My compliments!
You look fabulous!
Listen...
There's too much big air here!
Since I wanted to do the coup in your room, everything fails for me!
The police is watching all rooms, I don't even now what I could grab!
Every waiter could be a detective !
Next I will grab at someones wallet....and what will I find..?
Handcuffs!
I'm just telling you this, to make you understand that I have to leave here as soon as possible!
Therefore I have to make a suggestion!
This will surely delight you!
At christmas eve I gave you in no time a quite nice equipment!
My business worked out perfectly!
Now give attention!
What we have done for fun at that time .....
..we could now use practically again, well?
For instance, we drive together to Venice...
..you appear as a lady with fabulous jewelery...
..two weeks you'll pay regularly your hotel bills..
...at the third week, over night, there suddenly...
..your room gets burglarized!
Of course everything will be refunded....
..dresses..
..furs..
..money!
And the next month, the same thing will happen somewhere else!
For instance..
..in Rome, or in Scheveningen!
Now, isn't that an idea?
This way, we don't get in touch with the police, and everything will happen legally, so to speak!
What do you think?
Excellent!
I'm glad, that you'll got that so fast!
Now it's 6.30 pm, we'll get the express train to Venice this evening at 9.20 pm !
The sooner we begin, the better it is...
Don't talk further!
You know for sure, that I won't come with you!
Aha!
Oh, yes!
Yes, you'll come with me!
Of course, you will come with me!
In between one hour, you're ready for traveling!
Or.....
.. the direction of the hotel will know who the lady in room 24 really is...
And then all this Glory here, will unfortunately..
So, in one hour!
I will wait until 8 pm in my room!
Excuse me!
I just wanted to knock!
Mr. Rumowski sends me!
Madame has lost this at the Villa!
Thank you!
Now he knows everything!
Come in !
My serveant told me, that you now await a lady!
What do you wish from that lady?
Now, that's my business, but..
..if you want to know it well..
.. we'll drive together to Venice...
No, that's not quite correct!
The lady stays here!
Ah...
Look, look!
You are also interested into my countess!
Indeed!
And you have to re-arrange yourself now!
I'm not always letting you meddle into my business!
For the third time you're crossing my ways now!
I'm crossing yours?
Why ? - Ah..
You don't remember? - No!
Then I will refresh your memory a little bit!
St.Moritz
Countess Walewska
Ah, you're talking about the Walewska! But please..!
But you have thank me!
I've saved you a lot of useless work! The jewelry was fake!
But this person got refunded the full insurance amount, can you imagine?
And last year ?
Cairo?
And Monte?
There I have been faster than you!
Well, it's not everyones business to work with replacement keys!
God, each as each can, Mr. Rittmeister von Szirmay
Oh, Pardon! Here you are Mr.Rumowski, Mr. Consul von Brinken?
Please, pick up the luggage!
Room 18!
In half an hour your train will leave!
I won't leave without the woman!
By the way, your efforts are useless! The little girl is neither "Countess" nor rich!
Very charming of you, to let me know that!
But I have no professional interest for that lady!
And therefore I won't leave her to you!
But you won't have another choice!
That we will see!
Man!
Yes?
There, the luggage to the station!
You'll leave this area immediately
Beware to come back!
You know, it's better...
..not having me as an enemy!
To the Police department Semmering
For the capture of the notorious Gentleman Impostor Rittmeister von Szirmay...
..aka Consul von Brinken, the swiss police department has..
rewarded 13.000 swiss francs!
If you will have a closer look to Mr.Rumowsky, the owner of the little hunting villa..
But this is impossible!
Rumowsky!
We know him for years now!
Incredible!
In any case, we'll follow this note!
I will order Wanted posters.
[swiss accent) Pictures are not available!
Descriptions vary!
38 years...
43 years...
Elegant...
Mustache!
possibly goatee!
graying hair!
blonde hair!
Frenchmen!
Pole!
Maybe also englishmen or austrian!
we'll send fingerprints!
Now we have to try immediately to get a fingerprint of Rumowsky!
So!
Have a nice slip into the new year!
Old boy!
Thanks!
You too!
And?
Finally I got to know something now!
So! The Baron hasn't squealed on us!
He left, and hasn't spoken with the director or anyone else!
And written ? - He hasn't either!
At least until now!
Thank God!
Mimi! Listen!
We'll drive tonight to Vienna!
And we'll return all things back that don't belong to us!
Dresses, the car and furs! Everything!
You'll refuel the car.....
...shortly after midnight, you'll drive the car out of the car park....
...but don't tell anyone why,....
...and you'll wait until I'll come!
Yes, but why after midnight ?
Why not immediately?
First I want to talk to Rumowsky!
Please, tell to Room 24 that I wait at the hall.
Yes, Mr.Rumowsky!
Good evening, Mr.Rumowsky!
Please allow me to take this opportunity to wish you a happy new Year? - Thanks, Inspector, also to you!
You are here for pleasure, and not professional?
Of course! Just for pleasure! - Of course!
This evening northing about the job!
I ask you, gentlemen, please, just as discreetly as possible!
Yes,yes,yes! - Just no fuss, no..no Scandal!
Last New Year's eve, I spent all alone in my villa!
Item 12, I stood in front of my mirror!
..and wished myself a happy New Year!
And...was it really happy?
Until now, yes!
I can't complain!
That is, do not count the year before New Year's Eve!
The fingerprints are indeed identical!
Gentlemen!.... Everyone on your marks!
Mr.Rumowsky!
Please, listen to me know!
I want to explain to you.... why I even came to you this evening!
Why I...after all what happened yesterday,...
You don't need to explain to me anything!
Everything what you want to tell me, I know already!
Please! - Jeannette, I... know who you are!
I know why you are here, too!
And nevertheless I will repeat what I've told you yesterday...
I want you ....
If...
If you promise to me...
...to be a bit happy now!
Now, with last minutes of the old year...
We want to forget everything what have been!
We have to pay attention....
...otherwise we will miss the right moment!
I count....
...just a few seconds....

Happy New Year!
Arrest the lady!
You see..... I told you so..
Don't count the year before New Years Eve!
Yes, but what had happened?
What had happened?
One is searching for a....
..a man...
...who was for ten years more clever than all police departments in Europe...
..and now turned for the first time clumsy...
...because he has fallen in love with a woman!
Have I disappointed you?
One even shouldn't have private emotions!
..in my job!
No,no!
You can't return to the ball room!
They surely even search for you!
And all exits are guarded!
Now pay attention!
I present myself to the police officers...
..they will guide me through the ball room...
..the rear exit will be free..
...and you will try to escape!
And you?
Me?
For me, you don't need to worry!
I am at your disposal! Guide me to the ball room!
I have to pay my bill!
So, you ARE here for profession?
In the name of the law!
Congratulations! 30.000 pound!
The year starts very good - for you!
the coat!
very charming!
Alright, gentlemen?
You allow me ... to walk in front of you?
Please!
The lady escaped with the car!
Direction to Vienna!
So! Hm... then immediately notify the police department Wiener Neustadt!
The car has to be stopped under all circumstances! - Yes!
What shall we actually do first, when we'll arrive in Vienna?
We will drive to the studio and bring back all things!
C..c..can..
Can we do first a do little detour?
Where?
To the editorial office of the Journal!
You now, I have telegraphed to Stefan, that he should wait for us tonight!
I don't now at all, why you don't like Stefan?
He's such a lovely and nice guy!
I have always told you: The gentlemen from the press are very lovely people!
Stop!
Please, get off!
Hello? Yes?
Yes? Please? I don't understand!
Police department Wiener Neustadt?
We have caught two girls!
They say, that you can identify them!
A certain Jeannette Haider....
..and Mimi Rusicka!
Is that correct?
Do you know them both?
Of course!
Perhaps...
Perhaps I could talk with the ladies?
Come here...
Talk something!
Please....
Hello?
Jeannette!
Jeannette!!
This is Mimi!
Hello Stefan!
Happy New Year!
Yes...
Where are you, where is Jeannette ?
Where are you now?
What had happened to you? How are you?
If you only knew what we have experienced!
We have been at the Semmering, 8 days! At the hotel Langhans!
Yes, first floor!
I have been a ladies maid, and Jeannette has been countess!
And imagine, at Christmas eve, there was a burglary!
vis-a-vis Jeannettes room, there was a hotel thief!
...and also on the first day, Jeannette has met a very rich and distinguished gentlemen....
..and then she had, now imagine...
Stefan?
It's nice of you, that you have waited for us tonight!
That goes without saying, Jeannette!
Tell him, that he should come here, that we will be released!
You know, Stefan....
We are here caught in a Predicament!
It was so terrible, in what we have gone through in this few days!
Yes!
More and more I got involved in everything!
Police, Criminals...
Yes, yes...
Hello! Is the New Years edition finished yet?
Could you stop the edition?
I will bring BIG News!!
Yes!
Yes?
Sensation at New Year's eve!! Jeannette Heider found again!
Razzia at the luxury hotel! International Impostor Rumowsky arrested!
No criminal complaint against Jeannette Heider! Film company and hotel direction declares themselves for not damaged!
Our new model. Type 8 . Countess of Monte Christo
Procedures against Jeannette Heider stopped!
Splendid! Splendid! I really have to say: really splendid!
We were indeed the first european journal that wrote about the story!
Sorry,Doctor, but... - What should I talk further around it...
The thing with the Degradation, you shouldn't take serious!
Of course you will stay further with us!
Actually, I wasn't that much involved in it, but....
Fanfare!
Dear Jeanette and co.
In the name of all colleagues...
I bid you heartly welcome!
Bravo!
You lovely Jeannette, you lovely..
..have the institution of the film dummies.....
...led from the darkness of the eternal unknown, to the light of the public interest!
and me?
You? You shut up!
There I should....
In an insurmountable desire to finally play a major role...
Have you embarked into an adventure....
...of which you got out this time with a black eye!
Now, dear Jeannette....we wish you...
..that you'll play your next major role without the participation of the police!
Aren't you excited....that I'm back?
Yes, Jeannette...
But if I should be honest....
..then I worry a bit....
You have seen the big world...
..met other people....
..and then of course I'm a bit anxious....
..that you don't belong to us....
...to me....
You!
