Order from the company. 6 00:02:36,325 --> 00:02:38,361 But he must be here any moment. 7 00:02:38,445 --> 00:02:40,117 My name is Mc Iver. 8 00:02:40,325 --> 00:02:44,034 You now believe that I can't wait calmly? As also some other people here. 9 00:02:44,125 --> 00:02:46,645 They behave as if they have devil behind their neck. 10 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,397 A hideous feeling, 11 00:02:48,605 --> 00:02:50,994 and not easy to get rid of, if one sensed it once. 12 00:02:51,485 --> 00:02:53,999 You on the continent should be used to it already. 13 00:02:54,085 --> 00:02:56,724 There is nothing really new in what happens to you these days. 14 00:02:56,845 --> 00:02:59,564 This time, it seems to be something new, Mr. Mc Iver. 15 00:02:59,645 --> 00:03:02,239 Even you might soon start to feel it on your island. 16 00:03:03,845 --> 00:03:04,914 Excuse me please. 17 00:03:05,005 --> 00:03:07,200 Ah, here comes somebody. 18 00:03:21,725 --> 00:03:25,479 These three suitcases in Mr. Czentovic's cabin, and this in mine. 19 00:03:40,845 --> 00:03:43,837 Mr. Czentovic? I ** the first officer, Nadis. 20 00:03:44,805 --> 00:03:47,000 Couldn't you find a better ship? 21 00:03:47,085 --> 00:03:50,634 There were no others, Mirko. And we must keep our schedule. 22 00:03:51,325 --> 00:03:53,919 One almost could take it for a refugee ship. 23 00:03:54,125 --> 00:03:57,879 One almost would be right. Mainly Austrians and Czechs, 24 00:03:58,245 --> 00:04:01,635 but you will also easily find some of your compatriots. 25 00:04:01,805 --> 00:04:06,003 I believe, I hardly have the time to worry about them. 26 00:04:07,685 --> 00:04:11,360 Czentovic. Czento,... Czento... 27 00:04:11,445 --> 00:04:13,675 Do you play chess, Mr. Mc Iver? 28 00:04:13,765 --> 00:04:15,164 But, of course! 29 00:04:15,365 --> 00:04:18,198 Your noteworthy co-passenger is the world champion, of all people. 30 00:04:18,405 --> 00:04:21,965 Ah, yes, you know, as someone who spent quite a time behind the chessboard, 31 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,240 I ** very grateful, that you waited for him. 32 00:04:24,325 --> 00:04:27,715 Well then. Only Mr. Czentovic is not the one we are waiting for. 33 00:04:46,045 --> 00:04:50,243 How? How you g***t me out? 34 00:04:50,405 --> 00:04:55,638 Don't think about it anymore, Werner. That's over, that is cleared now. 35 00:04:57,325 --> 00:04:59,395 Ah, this is never over. 36 00:04:59,645 --> 00:05:03,240 Nobody is chasing you anymore, Werner. Try to understand finally. 37 00:05:03,325 --> 00:05:07,398 You are no more in the occupied Austria, you are in a free country. 38 00:05:08,285 --> 00:05:10,799 Do you believe, this matters anything for THEM? 39 00:05:19,405 --> 00:05:24,354 You did so much for me, eminence, I see it, otherwise we won't be here. 40 00:05:25,165 --> 00:05:26,917 And I thank you. 41 00:05:28,045 --> 00:05:31,594 We will never reach the ship, never. 42 00:05:32,605 --> 00:05:33,924 We will be there soon. 43 00:05:34,325 --> 00:05:39,399 Soon, soon, soon. What this "soon"? We are already 34 minutes late. 44 00:05:39,485 --> 00:05:42,283 A ship also has rules. A schedule. 45 00:05:43,085 --> 00:05:45,679 Tell the captain, I insist, that we cast off immediately. 46 00:05:45,845 --> 00:05:48,882 Of course, Mirko, but I don't believe that we... 47 00:05:48,965 --> 00:05:51,798 Yes. 48 00:05:53,965 --> 00:05:56,195 Of course, I don't want to suggest, that I ** a match for him, 49 00:05:57,085 --> 00:05:59,440 but after all, I have won some tournaments. 50 00:06:00,885 --> 00:06:02,762 And you, do you also play chess? 51 00:06:02,925 --> 00:06:06,998 Certainly. From Budapest to Prague. ln coffeehouses. 52 00:06:07,085 --> 00:06:10,157 But I ** afraid, that I ** a hopeless amateur. 53 00:06:15,645 --> 00:06:19,399 But surely you, as a man of church, [clearing the throat] ... of faith... 54 00:06:19,485 --> 00:06:23,922 ... Well, I mean, I think you had enough time to play, 55 00:06:24,005 --> 00:06:26,325 and surely play extraordinary well. 56 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,920 Well, now and then. But when I had time, 57 00:06:30,005 --> 00:06:33,634 my thoughts were mostly occupied with other things. 58 00:06:41,285 --> 00:06:44,277 We cast off shortly, Mr. Czentovic, and the captain regrets the delay. 59 00:06:44,365 --> 00:06:47,914 But in such unsettling times, one cannot follow the rules so exactly. 60 00:06:48,965 --> 00:06:50,603 Strange attitude. 61 00:06:50,685 --> 00:06:53,643 On top of that, I just figured out, that we do not sail directly to New York. 62 00:06:53,725 --> 00:06:55,925 We will go tomorrow to Venice, for a short stop. 63 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:57,725 Another couple of passengers will come on board. 64 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,080 You mean, even more rabble. 65 00:07:01,805 --> 00:07:06,356 You seem not to take your schedule so exactly, as I my tournament dates. 66 00:07:06,445 --> 00:07:10,404 I hope, I can still keep them. Set up the pieces, Baranov. 67 00:07:24,365 --> 00:07:27,323 Please excuse the disturbance, sir. My name is Mc Iver. 68 00:07:28,365 --> 00:07:30,645 I had hoped to see you in Scotland last year, 69 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,603 but, well, something had cropped up. 70 00:07:33,685 --> 00:07:36,836 The chess club of Glasgow, you wanted to give an exhibition match there. 71 00:07:39,205 --> 00:07:43,483 Oh, I would be glad to play with you. Of course, when you are both ready. 72 00:07:44,245 --> 00:07:46,884 O-oh, excuse me, but this is only a practice game. 73 00:07:47,365 --> 00:07:50,516 Only for Mr. Czentovic alone. His training. 74 00:07:50,765 --> 00:07:54,314 But a real game can be much more useful. 75 00:07:54,405 --> 00:07:56,600 You know, something like a contest, 76 00:07:56,765 --> 00:08:00,525 A few of us against you, with the right, to consult between the moves. 77 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,959 [Laughter] this should be of some interest to you? 78 00:08:05,485 --> 00:08:09,239 I don't think so. Please excuse me now. 79 00:08:09,325 --> 00:08:13,443 You will understand, but Mr. Czentovic must be alone now, 80 00:08:13,525 --> 00:08:15,083 he cannot be disturbed. 81 00:08:15,165 --> 00:08:16,837 Ok, then after your... Psst. 82 00:08:16,925 --> 00:08:18,404 Then, after your training hour. 83 00:08:18,485 --> 00:08:21,477 You probably don't know this, but Mr. Czentovic is a professional player and... 84 00:08:21,605 --> 00:08:24,119 naturally, doesn't play against amateurs. Of course. 85 00:08:24,725 --> 00:08:27,364 Well, listen. I **, after all, no beginner. 86 00:08:27,445 --> 00:08:29,242 To the contrary, in Glasgow... 87 00:08:29,525 --> 00:08:31,959 You must understand, Mr., We play only for money. 88 00:08:32,525 --> 00:08:34,322 Undoubtedly a rule. 89 00:08:34,525 --> 00:08:37,562 Yes. As his manager I must insist on certain rules. 90 00:08:37,885 --> 00:08:39,557 Noon, well, how high is the price? 91 00:08:39,645 --> 00:08:44,958 You are Scotsman, right? Then it would be 50 pounds in your currency. Per game. 92 00:08:46,485 --> 00:08:49,525 50 pounds for a single game? Yep. 93 00:08:49,560 --> 00:08:52,605 Can I make a suggestion, Mr. Mc Iver? 94 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,439 You play against me, for free; and win, on top of that. 95 00:09:04,085 --> 00:09:06,553 Excuse me. You will understand, 96 00:09:06,645 --> 00:09:10,525 but under the current circumstances... we must unfortunately insist on cash. 97 00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:13,676 The check is from the bank of England, this is as good as cash. 98 00:09:13,765 --> 00:09:16,120 Well, today maybe yet... - Next year also! 99 00:09:16,205 --> 00:09:18,275 The uncertainty forces us into it, regrettably. 100 00:09:18,365 --> 00:09:21,357 My dear friend, behind this check, stands the British government, personally. 101 00:09:21,445 --> 00:09:23,879 I can assure you, there is not the slightest uncertainty there. 102 00:09:23,965 --> 00:09:26,923 My respect. You are one of the sages of this world. 103 00:09:27,005 --> 00:09:31,283 If you can say with certainty what awaits you, or all of us. 104 00:09:47,445 --> 00:09:50,915 [Basil] You see? What did I tell you? 105 00:09:51,405 --> 00:09:53,999 [People] well, there... You were just lucky... 106 00:09:54,085 --> 00:09:57,043 My truck... Please, my deepest apologies... 107 00:10:04,205 --> 00:10:09,233 Do you believe me now? They don't care about you anymore, Werner. 108 00:10:09,525 --> 00:10:14,553 They are after other people. After other confrontations. 109 00:10:16,125 --> 00:10:20,198 Please, give the master a sign after each move. Like this. 110 00:10:24,445 --> 00:10:28,445 Presumably also a rule. The great man cannot even sit with us. 111 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,754 Not even during the game. 112 00:10:36,365 --> 00:10:38,720 ... well, finally. 113 00:10:42,845 --> 00:10:46,679 Well, but however, what did I tell? How much did I betray? 114 00:10:46,885 --> 00:10:49,353 Yes, but I must know this. How much did I betray? 115...
