After Salvador Allende was elected President in 1970,
Chile became a free haven for political refugees,
from all over Latin America.
Many insurgents from this area of the world
fled the military dictatorship in their home countries,
and sought refuge in Allende's Chile.
In Washington the Nixon Administration feared
Allende's socialism would inspire social revolution
elsewhere in the region.
President Nixon ordered the CIA to cooperate with
Chile's biggest newspaper and with the dissatisfied members
of Chile's Armed Forces.
Their purpose was to destabilize Allende's Government.
Soon, only a few countries were supporting Allende.
Amongst these, Cuba was the closest ally.
[ The people united will never be defeated ]
You have widely over-stepped your bounds.
As a foreign diplomat Edelstam,
you should have known that this game of yours cannot succeed.
It has to stop.
I have something to show you.
Watch carefully, Mister Ambassador.
The moment passed already, the real cleansing is the one
that comes from below.
But the loyalty of the people can be quite opportunistic,
it can change at any moment.
Chaos is just around the corner.
That's why we put our trust in you. Now as always.
Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please ?
Uh um, well for me it is a great honor to present
Sweden's new Ambassador to Chile, Mister Harald Edelstam.
It's no ordinary man who is now facing you.
Some of you already know his credentials that are legendary.
Harald Edelstam, nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you too, Mister Ambassador, please this way.
This man has the disquieting tendency to land
right in the middle of the world's trouble spots.
The list is impressive.
Wartime Oslo, then also Jakarta when it exploded,
Manila, lately, Guatemala.
As for myself I had the pleasure of meeting this remarkable man
as far back as 1941, when he
was carrying out his first diplomatic mission in Berlin,
More people than I can count
are alive today because of this man.
So ladies and gentleman please welcome Mister Harald Edelstam!
My task now on Sweden's behalf is to assist you
in any way possible to achieve your goals of your...
Exceptional social project.
And just a moment ago, I promised your President,
that his ambition to offer every Chilean child
his daily glass of milk would be fulfilled.
And you all have my word on that. Thank you.
Susanne I can tell you I'm not in agreement with all.
So what you're saying is that you are above politics?
No, not at all.
I'm sorry to interrupt.
You should meet someone who loves opera music as much as you
as much as yourself.
-Hallo, Ricardo Fuentes. -Nice to meet you.
Welcome to our hornet's nest.
Thank you. I have been stung once or twice, but thankfully,
I am not allergic, so... [laughs]
Then you are the right man in the right place.
However, when it comes to our supply of music,
I'm afraid it's swamped by noisy folk singers.
-You prefer opera? -Yes. Verdi.
Personally, I'm stuck on Wagner.
" A Flying Dutchman " fan?
And with whom do I have the honor of sharing this dance?
-Ana. -Ana, hmm.
I am President Allende's Private Secretary.
Guatemala was in turmoil,
nobody, nobody was safe.
I had guard dogs, four Doberman Pinschers,
outside of my U. S. Embassy.
Edelstam, outside the Swedish Embassy,
What?
He had one pig, a guard pig!
Edelstam, you know you should consider coming into business.
I could give you a few tips, the Colonel and I, we run
a number of enterprises together.
Yes, trucking companies.
Isn't the present time a little too shaky for investing?
Well, I would agree with you.
No, no no, this is exactly the right time, when no-one else is.
Trust me, the chaos we are experiencing now,
will not go on for ever. Think about it.
There will be three representatives from BOFUS.
And two from SUS.
And we have this request from Atlas Copco.
Sorry, I'm afraid I have not announced myself.
Am I interrupting?
No, no, no, no.
I'd like to invite you for a ride in my car. Want to come?
Are you always this direct?
Do I scare you Mister Ambassador?
No.
In fact I'm the one who should be worried.
Peace and quiet is not exactly what follows
the Black Pimpernel around.
Oh you know that silly nickname.
This is our main housing project.
Within three years we'll have the new houses ready.
Leftwing armed groups are also located here.
Excuse me.
He's injured!
Meet the revolution Mister Edelstam, that is,
if La Comandante is not in too much of a hurry.
Ambassador Edelstam?
My humble self, but how... How?
You know my friend, Susanne.
So, that's what you look like.
I can offer you some excellent wine, the one thing
the socialists have not grabbed for themselves yet.
-Feel at home please. -Thank you very much.
This conspiracy is pushing us together.
-Fate? -Coincidence.
Do you really believe in coincidence?
Oh! that's fate!
Oh! This has happened seven times this week!
Soon we'll be back in the Stone Age.
Nobody comes here when the world is upside down!
Thank you, we'll be fine, thank you so much.
-Okay. -Thank you.
So the only thing that is missing is music.
-Cheers! Skol! -Skol!
What music does the Black Pimpernel prefer?
Well, I don't know.
-Mmm. -Why don't you call me Harald?
-Please. -Harald.
The name behind the mask.
What do you mean? I have no idea what you talk about.
Like a bird on the wing, over the seas
without rest, he must roam .
That's " The Flying Dutchman" , Wagner.
Condemned to sail for ever on his ghost ship .
Until he finds the woman who can release him .
Until he finds a woman.
Flying Dutchman.
Oh, it's open.
Okay. Good night Harald.
Good night.
I will not deny that I strongly disapprove of your appointment.
And as you well know, I am not the only one of that opinion.
The Swedish Foreign Office makes it very clear
they're not going to tolerate any irregularities this time.
First sign of disobedience,
you will be called home.
Well if they got their way, we'd move heaps of paper around.
Still, I have to put in my protest in the milk powder deal.
You can't make promises without proper clearance.
Then I suggest you formalize that matter Mister Winther.
The delivery of milk powder must get started,
not in a week, not in a month, but now.
Children are dying out there. Thank you.
And Mister Winther, ask the staff to shine their shoes,
we represent Sweden.
-Do you need help with anything? -Winther, I've been thinking,
You will not have a proper presence of Swedish army
Susanne here she knows the whole network of voluntary aid workers
so she'll handle those records,
it's a part-time job, I've already done the paperwork.
I'll be gone for a couple of hours.
-Mister Edelstam? -I don't have time.
Hi!
Will you by chance tolerate my humble presence?
Has the Ambassador taken interest
in the lives of the masses.
Let's stop the charade, I want you to know that you have
my unreserved sympathy.
One day a government-supporter the next day a revolutionary?
Neither. I support people who do things, get results, like you.
We. I'm just one out of many.
Quite the place for it.
Sue, do you have the new names?
Ivana Pereira and Franca Molinas.
Move! I have orders to search this place,
and to remove literature and photographs. Give me that file!
Hey!
This is property of the Embassy of Sweden.
It is the list of our projects.
Hi, how are we? I'm the Swedish Ambassador.
My dear friend Colonel Maldonaldo
will reward you for carrying out your duty.
I promise to mention your name next time I see him.
Fair enough.
Let's go!
Yup! Let's go you morons. We'll see you later.
Have you been raided before?
No, no, no.
I have a suggestion, I keep this.
Until we find a safer hiding place.
Why do they call her Comandante ?
As long as she's around, so is the Left, the "real" Left.
So this printing house is just a front?
No, not at all, they make school materials for the shanty towns.
Consuelo, she's not a revolutionary romantic.
You are a very strange man, Mister Ambassador!
Hmm...
Where are we going?
Oh, ah, it's straight ahead, I'll show you.
And you are a very strange woman!
They are here. We got them this morning, it is too late.
Children are already sick.
-Give me a hand please. -Sure.
Careful!
-Does it work? -Yes.
Consuelo! May I present Ernesto Octavio
Michelangelo Fartfellow!
Name's not Fartfellow!
What, what did he say?
Name's not Fartfellow!
No, you don't want to know, no.
Aaar!
Mister Ambassador I will never be just one of your...
You're not, you're not.
You are so precious, so precious.
Harald, are you there?
Are you there?
Harald, you bastard, I hope you haven't gone to bed already?
Son-of-a-bitch!
Mister Edelstam.
I would like to speak to Ana Dominguez.
At the Presidential Palace.
Thank you very much, thank...
Mister Edelstam, the President is speaking.
Long live Chile! Long live the people! Long live the workers !
Compatriots! Our country
has been destroyed from outside, and from within.
A curfew has been declared.
It is prohibited to be outside on the street.
All those on the street after curfew will be detained.
Can I have your attention...
Can I have your attention, please.
Today they turned a black page
in the book of history.
We are part of it...
We have to act.
Go to work.
Mister Edelstam, Miss Martens called, asked for help.
Susanne, where is she?
She didn't say an address, mentioned a printing house.
Drive!
I arrived too late.
I saw when they took her away.
I asked her myself to take my place for the night.
I'll contact you.
Consuelo, I'll find her, I promise.
I have permission.
Go ahead.
-Who's in charge? That way.
I am the Swedish Ambassador and I demand
-to know... -Mister Edelstam.
For God's sake what are you doing here?
I have reason to believe Swedish citizens are kept in custody.
Swedes? No, not very likely.
Only social rebels are brought here.
In times of crisis mistakes can be made, we both know that.
I have no information of who or how many.
Then find out!
That is way beyond my authority, please!
-I'm going to find out. -Please Mister Edelstam,
-Mister Ambassador! -What's happening?
They are attacking the Cuban Embassy!
Oh! You can't go out now, they shoot everybody!
Who is in charge? Who is in charge?
Get away!
On behalf of Sweden I demand
to talk to the Cuban Ambassador.
What the hell are you doing here? Are you out of your mind?
There's a curfew, my soldiers may shoot you at will.
That would not be too smart.
Go home Mister Ambassador, please.
Not until I've talked to my colleague inside.
And please do I have to remind you that an attack on
a foreign Embassy will be considered an act of war...?
Listen to me Mister Ambassador, this is risky for you okay?
Why don't you take that up with the country's leadership?
That way no-one will accidentally do something
that could harm the interests of Chile.
I can no longer guarantee your safety.
Thank you very much, thank you so much. Thank you very much.
Mister Edelstam! You choose
the strangest places for your personal protection.
It has to be stopped. Do the phones work?
For the time being.
We have tried to reach the Junta, no such luck.
-And the press? -Associated Press.
But what can they do? At the very best we will be
on the front pages tomorrow...
I was in the Palace, well I was one of the last to escape.
And Ana?
She was there, with the President.
-Is she alive? -I don't know.
Duck!
Mister Ambassador! I have a message from the Junta.
Today, the Government of the Nation,
decided to break diplomatic relations with Cuba.
All Embassy staff must leave the country before midnight.
Soldiers follow me!
This is Swedish territory.
Sweden has taken the protective power for this Embassy,
and I warn you, if you try to stop me,
you are violating Swedish sovereignty,
and that will have severe international consequences.
And you will bear the responsibility.
Troops! Fall out !
Let's go !
Let's get out of here! Go!
Good evening!
It's going to be a long night and these may
-what you got there? -Make it a little bit shorter.
What is it?
Best quality guaranteed.
Hand-rolled by the heroes of the Cuban Revolution!
The military was already in the Palace.
You couldn't see anything for the smoke and teargas.
A total mess.
The President wore a helmet and carried a machine gun.
He ordered us to run for it.
As for himself, he went into the reception hall,
a few moments later we heard gunfire.
Oh! the phone's gone.
-Do you know how to handle cats? -No but I'll try.
That's the new addition to our security guard...
-What's her name? -Let's say...
-Allende. -Allende?
Allende nine lives.
Mister Edelstam your disposition concerning the Cuban Embassy
wasn't in any way cleared by the Foreign Office.
There was no time. Even a wimp would understand that!
Clear it now!
We may need all the buildings. Inform the Foreign Ministry
that we are besieged by refugees.
You know very well that we cannot do that.
Just do it please.
Please! Please!
Señor, please!
Open the door. Open the door !
Please help me!
Open up!
Open your legs! Open your legs!
How many Swedes still unaccounted for?
At least five, maybe more.
Susanne Martens?
Nothing.
-I am the Swedish Ambassador. -Moment please, Señor.
So...
Our last encounter was not so pleasant Mister Ambassador.
I'm very sorry for that.
We are both doing our own duty.
Yes, precisely.
You should be a military man Mister Edelstam.
Although I disliked it, you won an important battle.
Your courage impresses me.
What can I do for you?
There are Swedish citizens missing.
We believe they may have been detained by mistake.
We keep a close check on who we arrest.
Just enemies of law and order.
Hardened fanatics, people who want to wreck our society.
Unfortunately, parts of the international press
have misunderstood our purposes.
Our only aim is reintroduce democratic freedom.
Which the former government demolished.
Let me show you... Look at this.
-I built all of them myself. -Oh! I see.
It requires meticulous skill, surgical precision.
In the same way we cut away
the abscesses on the body of society.
And we allow no mistakes.
Mister Ambassador, I assure you
There are no Swedes in our detention centers.
Juana Gonzalez for questioning!
No leave her please!
Susanne Martens.
Emma Gonzalez Birchens
Daniel de la Cruz, Emma Gonzalez to questioning.
It's my heavy duty to convey a truly sad message to you
Your king is dead.
The news reached us today.
On behalf of the Chilean people I offer my condolences.
-Thank you. -As for myself,
I've been a passionate royalist all my life.
It's my deep conviction that we should turn our country
into a kingdom like you have.
People need real ideals to look up to.
As a show of sympathy,
I ask is there anything I can do for you on this day of sorrow.
I would be very grateful if you would inform
the Swedish Embassy that I am here.
For the King's sake!
This is the most glorious moment for our country!
We ask our patriotic countrymen to provide information
on the whereabouts of foreign traitors.
We must pull out the evil by its roots.
We have once more...
The phone, Mister Edelstam, phone call for you.
-Hallo? -Mister Edelstam.
Yes, yes. -If you are looking for
a Swedish citizen by the name Martens,
She is currently at the National Stadium,
she's not going to be let out of there alive.
Who am I talking to. Can I...?
I have to tell you that I, I apologize.
Say nothing, it's been a long time.
I just want to know why you are exposing yourself like this?
Susanne is in the Stadium, we have to get her out.
-How? -Your father.
Forget it! He runs with the wolves, he always did.
Well change his ways, change him.
Me? I don't want to see him.
He never committed himself to anything,
except for the assholes who feed him.
If he thinks that's the way, that is right.
But he doesn't think it is right to punish innocent people,
-I know that well. -Not as well as I do.
He can go to hell.
Consuelo!
Consuelo?
Hallo father.
I need you to listen to me.
For once.
Please listen to me.
Susanne Martens, you have seen me with her.
She's in the National Stadium.
So?
I want you to get her out alive.
We're not going to have this argument again.
How do you dare to come here!
You must know you she is being looked for.
I came for her, find an excuse.
Or be a hero. Father arrests daughter!
Make a great story don't you think?
She didn't do anything.
That's what they all say and look what they did!
Excuse me! Who did what?
Who?
Do you realize who is behind what's happening?
International capitalism, right?
There are murderers on every street corner.
Dad, they don't need murderers on every street corner.
What with ITT, Pepsi and Chase Manhattan Bank,
there's enough already.
They are the ones making the decisions, for you.
I think you should leave.
Very well.
Please help me.
I have to pay for what I've done. Susanne's done nothing.
Please.
So?
I wish I had your courage.
You!
-Officer. -Yes Sir.
Bring the Swedish girl, we have to get rid of her.
-Move! Move! -No.
Do you have a light?
Oh, yes.
-You want one? -Oh no, I don't smoke.
I just smoke cigars.
Then you will definitely enjoy this.
Thank you.
You want to ask me something?
There are rumors about mass executions.
It happens every day.
How many have we managed to transfer to the Cuban Embassy?
Perhaps 200.
-We're seriously understaffed, -Exactly.
We can't continue like this.
And the Buticas family needs a doctor.
-I see, Susanne? -Yeah?
Is it true that you don't want to return to Sweden,
in spite what has happened?
Yeah, fear of flying.
-I like it here. -Good.
From this moment on,
Susanne holds the position of Second Secretary at the Embassy.
You'll have your own car, and formally take over
responsibility for the Cuban Embassy.
And Winther here will take care of all the formalities.
Enough Edelstam you are way out of line!
-Decisions like these... -We make exactly the decisions
that the situation demands.
What is needed now is action, not discussion.
Do you realize what you are asking of me Mister Edelstam?
My first duty is to show loyalty to my superiors.
It's a question of honor.
But you know the military leadership have sworn
their loyalty to this country's government?
What was their loyalty worth?
Let me make one thing clear Mister Edelstam.
Susanne was only released
because of my love for my daughter
And for the record, I supported the take-over myself.
It was necessary,
to prevent the country from plunging into total lawlessness.
Total chaos.
But the medicine turned out to be a little more bitter
than you had imagined.
The patient is bleeding to death.
No matter how you look at it, it is too late.
The process must fulfil itself, it will fulfil itself.
With or without me.
If I refuse to do my job, someone would
immediately take my place.
Nothing would be changed.
Do you honestly think that is
a way to define responsibility?
Let me be quite frank,
I know you don't like the situation we are in,
I know you as a decent, upright person, a human being,
but is it possible to keep your honor,
while at the same time you lose your humanity?
I ask you as a father.
I have just received information
that six Brazilians await execution
with any luck we'll hand them over to you tomorrow morning.
Thank you very much. You are a man of honor.
Thank you very much.
-Pray for me sister. -Yes I will.
Careful!
Well, thank you for this very instructive excursion.
Are ambassadors supposed to do this sort of thing?
Well in this case I invoke regional practice.
You have widely overstepped your bounds
as a foreign diplomat Edelstam.
You should have known that this game of yours cannot succeed.
It has to stop.
The six Brazilians you wanted to sneak out of here
have been executed.
So follow me, I have something to show you.
Watch carefully, Mister Ambassador.
And now I want you to leave.
And never, ever
to show your face here again, understand?
This should have been prepared yesterday.
I'm sorry.
Is there no-one here with a sense of responsibility?
Must I do everything on my own? Is it like that?
And this place looks like a pigsty.
Why haven't these curtains been washed, we have guests here.
Leave me alone!
Go home!
My father...
He was an evil man.
Your father was one of the most
courageous decent persons I ever met.
You know,
I didn't know him.
I never had the guts to tell him how much I love him.
Take me with you.
Where? To the Embassy?
No.
Let me go with you.
Anywhere, wherever you go, always.
What else do you want me to do Mister Ambassador?
You tell me, what else?
Watch out! Watch out!
Halt! Halt!
Halt! Get out of your vehicle.
You have no right
to violate the diplomatic immunity of another nation.
Do not do anything that may cost you your job.
Where I am is Swedish territory.
Thank you.
Open up please, let him through.
Hurry up man for God's sake!
Do you realize who that man is?
Figueroa. A notorious trade union leader.
-A rabid activist. -So what?
Sweden has become a dirty word.
Let me tell you straight away, I myself am sending
a letter of protest to the Foreign Office.
Not very smart.
Your actions prevents us from doing what we're expected to do.
Which is?
To protect Swedish interests.
Oh, I see.
Let me be frank.
I requested Foreign Office to send us a unit of armed guards
to protect Swedish interests.
Armed guards, huh.
Mister Edelstam.
Please, this is for you.
Thank you very much.
I'm here to pick up the pimpernels I ordered.
Come in.
Ana, thank God!
We have to be quick. Some-one may have seen you.
You are in great, great danger, you know that?
We have been collaborating with our network.
All kinds of people come here seeking protection.
I find suitable meeting places, that's where you come in.
Perfect, perfect.
But our opponents have tightened their grip.
Now even you are in danger.
You have an informer at the Embassy.
Take your Judas money and get out of here, get out of here!
And one more thing, tell your colonel Maldonaldo
that nothing goes on in this Embassy that we would not
announce to the world press tomorrow.
That's all. Thank you very much. Thank you very much.
Her new name will be Nordflyct, in Swedish,
it means northern flight. Take good care of her.
Mister Ambassador? There was a lot of gunfire this time,
but I think Consuelo is alive.
Yes?
That would be difficult,
we have absolutely no capacity at the moment
what was your name again?
-Ananda. -Did she say Ananda?
That's Ana Dominguez, what does she want?
She asked for asylum. That's of course out of the question.
She's one of the Junta's most wanted persons.
I regret to say that our situation makes it impossible
for us to help. I'm sorry.
Now we shall cool down, both you and me.
There will be no more damage than has already been done.
Have tonight's invitations been confirmed?
-Everyone has accepted. -Perfect, perfect.
Naturally I expect to see you there.
Good.
Now we're at the ropes and I need your help.
Tonight four dignitaries from the Chilean Foreign Ministry
will come to my home, it's just an informal invitation,
with an important purpose.
You see this case of union leader Figueroa
has provoked the generals beyond measure.
So... Good food and wine,
has a way of furthering international understanding,
and to ensure these dignitaries don't feel embarrassed,
my residence will not be under police guard.
I will not go so far as to say we are in agreement
on every point, that would be very unfortunate.
Then this kind of gathering would not be called for.
Would you like?
Yes, please that one.
May I suggest that every exit permit I sign
will cost two Cuban cigars!
If it is a question of a very beautiful woman then
I raise the price to ten.
You had enough. You okay?
I'm sorry I have to leave you alone for a while.
Feel at home, and here is the bathroom.
-I'll be back, is that okay? -Thank you.
I know, I know what you want to ask me,
and I'm the first to admit I am guilty.
But is it too much to ask for a little...
-Discretion? -No, no.
So we're not allowed to meet the lady?
Right now she doesn't want any company.
The bath tub is too small for that.
Oh yeah, we spent a very nice time!
-Please... Are you okay? -Yeah, yeah.
Look at all these women.
They're all different.
Yet they're all the same.
We need to talk.
You will not find her again. Not this way.
You are only punishing her again and again.
Why do you say all this?
The year is 1941, we are in Berlin.
Here we meet this young diplomat.
A man without worries.
A man who gets friends wherever he goes.
A gentleman with an irresistible charm.
Who can have any woman he wants.
He mingles with high-level Nazis
as well as with communists and anarchists.
You could say he is something of an adventurer.
He takes part in hiding 56 Jews under the stage floor
of the State Opera.
It is there that he meets her.
Julia.
The young man was lost from the first moment.
He forgets everything, his wife, his children.
There is only her.
They do nothing to keep their relationship secret.
Despite the fact Julia is married and has
an eight year old daughter.
He trusts her blindly.
What the diplomat does not know is that Julia is half-Jewish.
One day, Julia's husband is exposed.
So to save herself and her little daughter,
She reveals the hiding-place.
The little girl cannot take her eyes off the young man.
The soul in his eyes has died.
And there he stood as a black pimpernel.
My mother and I escaped with the help of the Chilean Embassy.
And Julia?
She died a few years later in a mental hospital in Santiago.
You will find a death you so obstinately seek,
unless in time you are able to forgive yourself.
I am not the one you seek.
But out there, there is a person who needs you.
One who is as wounded in her soul as yourself.
You will find her at the Maria Church, she is badly wounded.
Please follow me.
This way.
[speaking in Swedish]
There they are, hurry up!
She has to be operated on immediately.
I'll go to the Foreign Office, I try to do something,
look after her!
Come on! Upstairs!
-Give me the woman now! -Absolutely not.
I cannot allow any action during surgery.
In that case we will wait.
Excuse me, excuse me, sorry.
We have orders to take her away for questioning.
We are not leaving this building without her.
You have to wait, she's in no condition to be moved.
She can rest at the military hospital.
I have order to arrest her!
Bullshit! Do you know how to read? Do you know how to read?
This document states the patient
is under Swedish protection.
I think we're in trouble.
Military authority confirms that this woman
must be arrested.
So step back all of you.
Stand back or else...
Stand to attention!
I've had enough of you Mister Ambassador.
This!
I've come to pick up the patient.
And if you don't move aside, I promise you
in the name of God, that I will shoot you.
Here and now!
Don't.
Forgive me, forgive me.
Now I say to you that once and for all,
It is time to drop all tactfulness,
that we identify this murderous regime
and say what it is.
A pack of criminals,
without humanity and dignity.
A seriously ill woman has been seized from our hands
in total contradiction to all international laws.
Her case is one among many.
So it's our duty to show the real face
of this venomous dictatorship.
Thank you very much.
Frankfurter Allgemeine, the New York Times and France Soir,
They all got the story on their front page.
Good, We'll hold a new press conference tomorrow.
If we have time. The rumor's that...
They intend to throw me out of the country.
They won't get rid of me that easy, I could become refugee
in my own Embassy!
Mister Edelstam, a visitor.
Thank you.
Oh! Mister Ambassador, how do you do?
Why such a gloomy expression?
Well, look, ah...
-I'm afraid, um... -Have a seat.
Thank you.
I'm afraid I don't have good news for you.
Ah, the government...
Has decided to pronounce you
persona non grata.
So you have three days to leave the country.
I wish I didn't have to bring this news to you.
I am sorry for this, I'm really sorry.
Well no beating around the bush, I am not surprised.
But if they think they can shut me up...
Look Harald, listen.
I speak as a friend.
You have done your job here.
The atmosphere has been whipped up to a point
